"How stupid to defend ten fronts at the same time!"
The fight lasted for ten days, but the path Moy Union chose was beyond everyone's expectations.
Instead of blocking a portion of the ocean currents and concentrating their forces to defend a few of the narrowest ocean current channels, as the coalition staff speculated, they directly divided their forces into ten locations and defended all external channels at the same time.
According to the information from the front lines these days, no reserve fleet of the other party has been detected behind the ocean current defense line, and the warships on the defense line have lost one after losing one, and there is no reserve force to supplement them.
And the consumption in the past ten days has caused almost every line of defense to lose almost 10% of its combat power.
But if you think about it carefully, this is not surprising.
After all, ten lines of defense are defended at the same time. In addition to the battleships lost in the battle of Mirsey, it is already very difficult for Moy Union to gather the fleets on the defense line alone. The strength behind it... Haha!
This made Bonifacio sneer.
"Commander Bonifacio, the latest battle situation on the front line, Moy Union's fleet has begun to retreat!"
"Oh? Originally, I thought they could be tough for at least a month, but they gave up after only ten days?"
While mocking, Bonifacio called up the tactical images from various places on the front line, but soon frowned.
It stands to reason that if you really want to retreat, you should concentrate your firepower to destroy all the coalition forces' Hyperspace Interference Device like Milse Supercluster, and then take the opportunity to use Hyperspace Navigation to evacuate, so that the coalition forces cannot pursue them in a short period of time.
But now, the opponent did not do this, but retreated while maintaining firepower.
"Notify the staff and analyze the motivation behind Moy people's move!"
"Yes, Commander Bonifacio!"
No matter how you look at it, there is something abnormal. Bonifacio decided to let the coalition staff analyze the reason for the other party's strange behavior and whether there is any conspiracy involved?
If this were replaced with the Bonifacio from before the first battle in Millsey, there would definitely not be so many worries.
But obviously, that battle left a lot of shadows in Bonifacio's heart, making him hesitate.
After receiving the order, the huge staff, composed of more than 200 civilized attack and more than 3,000 top tactical forecasters, immediately conducted various deductions based on the current situation.
Eventually.
A conclusion emerges!
Because the strength gap between the two sides in Current Mouth is quickly closing, and Moy people has no reserve force to supplement.
Therefore, in order to maintain the advantage brought by the difference in troop strength, Moy people gave up the confrontation with Current Mouth, and instead used space interference to retreat at sub-light speed while maintaining the exchange of fire.
The advantage of doing this is that if the coalition forces pursue it, Moy people can always maintain an absolute strength advantage for sniping.
Take the Haisai side as an example. The number of warships remaining on the Moy people defense line is now about 280 billion, while the number of warships gathered by the coalition at the exit of the ocean current is about 40 billion. The gap between the two sides is about 7 times.
It is estimated that this gap will be evened out in more than 20 days, and then completely reversed.
But what will happen if Moy people abandons the ocean current defense line, chooses to retreat at sublight speed like it does now, and maintains a firefight with Pursuit Fleet?
In order not to be affected by the Time Dilation effect, even the most advanced civilization can only maintain sublight speed at 20%.
In other words, after Moy people destroys the more than 40 billion warships that are chasing it, the fleet arriving from the rear of the coalition will never be able to catch up with Moy people's retreating fleet.
After all, everyone has the same speed. As long as you are outside the range, you will always be outside the range.
In this way, Moy people has taken control of the initiative, and can completely reduce its speed, wait for the fleet behind to come up, and then accelerate to 20% of the speed of light again and engage with it.
As long as the control is good, Moy people can even engage in firefights with the coalition forces with a hundred times the strength difference forever, unless the coalition forces give up the pursuit!
"Commander Bonifacio, should we give up the pursuit?"
"No, let the fleet continue to pursue!"
"But the losses to the coalition forces will be huge, right?"
"You have forgotten one thing, Moy Union's mysterious weapon!"
Shaking his head, Bonifacio said.
The commanders of other civilizations also changed their expressions when they heard this. After all, White Tiger Empire had shared this information with all the civilizations in the coalition before.
Just
The battles over the past few days have gradually made them forget this point, until Bonifacio brought it up again at this moment.
"So, we still have to pursue. As long as we bite the opponent's fleet, Moy people will not dare to use that weapon unless we are planning to kill their own fleet as well!"
"So that's how it is"
Everyone nodded and accepted this statement.
Indeed, if Moy people uses that mysterious weapon in this situation, it will cause huge casualties to the coalition forces, but at the same time, their own fleet will also join in.
Therefore, sending part of the fleet to pursue and bite Moy people's fleet is the most appropriate combat plan.
"Of course, we cannot always gather fleets at the exits of ocean currents. While we are seizing the Moy people fleet, other fleets in our theaters gathered at the mouths of ocean currents must immediately start destroying the opponent's Hyperspace Interference fleets and disperse in all directions."
"Only when the fleet is completely dispersed can the huge threat posed by the opponent's mysterious weapon be truly eliminated. Otherwise, if the opponent gets impatient and really launches a strike, destroying them together with their own fleet, it is not impossible to happen!"
After thinking for a moment, Bonifacio decided to add another layer of insurance, and then spoke.
This proposal makes no sense to everyone. Maybe the killing range of Doomsday Bomb is indeed very large, but the number held by the opponent is definitely not large, otherwise it would not be used in Mirsey until it was really unbearable.
Based on this analysis, it is natural that the wider the fleet is spread out, the smaller the threat it will be.
——
At the same time, there is a virtual joint command center between humans and Moy people.
"It seems that everything is going according to plan, but Sir Lin Fan, I have never understood that if it is just to kill more coalition fleets, then there is no need to use the sub-light speed retreat trick as a bait. You only need to use Hyperspace Interference Device to contain the opponent for a period of time, and wait until the fleet they gather reaches a certain number!"
After looking at the battle situation on the front line, Larnass asked.
This is something he has never understood. He always feels that Lin Fan's move of letting the fleet act as bait is a bit redundant.
"If you were the commander of the other side and knew that we had Doomsday Bomb, how would you judge when you saw that all the defenders had evacuated and the area around Current Mouth was completely covered by Hyperspace Interference?"
"Would you think this is preparing to use Doomsday Bomb to clear the place early?"
"Yes, then if you find out that my fleet is only retreating at sub-light speed, and you have the opportunity to bite my fleet, how will you judge?"
"This"
Larnass suddenly woke up.
Needless to say?
If you can seize your fleet, you can naturally continue to move the fleet with confidence and boldness.
Sent over by ocean currents!
