1611. The dilemma of Matt-Hona

Matt-Hona stood among Starbase A Agonev-class as the command center, looking at the holographic galaxy map in front of them, with solemn expressions.

In the holographic galaxy map, Republic fleet always maintains a tight formation and keeps moving, reducing the hit rate of Particle Beam Lance. At the same time, it continues to bombard the Yago-Dur galaxy with various means.

The force of this Republic fleet is actually not that powerful, with 30 Hunter Class, 10 Knight-class, 70 small and medium-sized warships, and one Commander II-class.

Compared with the defense fleet of the Yago-Dur system in his hands, it can even be said to be a disadvantage.

Yago-Durr's defense fleet includes two Agonev-class star bases, A and B, 10 Sova-class Carrier, 40 Kohl-class Battlecruiser, and 20 Calamity-class battlecruiser, 17 Hiigaran-class battlecruiser, 15 Martha-class missile heavy cruiser, 5 Doomsday Battlefield-class battlecruiser, 5 Durov-class Battlecruiser, and 1 Consul-class aircraft carrier.

In addition, there are more than 400 small and medium-sized warships, but most of them are frigates.

There are also 8 Munificent-class communications frigate, 3 Defiant-class destroyers, and 2 Deceiver-class destroyer. These battleships are the defense fleet of Gran. In order to reinforce the operations of the Yago-Dur system, they also dispatched their own defense fleet.

Many of the warships of these defense fleets were ordered during the Confederacy of Independent Systems period. Later, Kinyen was assigned to the Dawn Star Planet war zone, and the Fourth Civilization fleet was arranged and deployed uniformly. Therefore, Kinyen did not equip the warships of Fourth Civilization, but continued to retain its former defense fleet.

Because for Gran's home star Kinyen, if the Yago-Dur system falls, then the next one Galactic Republic will attack will be Kinyen. Therefore, both publicly and privately, they must do their best to protect the planet Yago-Dur from falling.

Matt-Admiral Horner now holds this huge fleet, with more than 110 kilometer-class battleships alone! If you look at the current strength, the strength of the fleet in his hands is even three times that of Galactic Republic!

But now, he feels extremely pressured.

Because he knew that Galaxy Republic 20th Army definitely had more than the troops in front of them. They undoubtedly had more warships lurking in the surrounding unmanned systems that had built advanced bases.

Once he launches an active attack, these backups will immediately appear.

And even if he has three times the strength of Galactic Republic, he can't guarantee that he can eat these warships coming now.

After all, there is another Commander II-class Dreadnought here!

Although Commander II-class Dreadnought has repeatedly proven to be completely unable to resist Xuanwu Titan warship on the battlefield, it is Titan warship after all! Commander II-class Dreadnought still has an overwhelming advantage over other battleships.

After careful calculation, Matt-Admiral Horner believed that although it would not be a problem to kill the Commander II-class, the dreadnought ship also had enough power to hold on until Galactic Republic's reinforcements arrived.

At that time, the offensive and defensive situation will be reversed.

"Who is the other party's Commander? Have you found it?" Matt-Hona asked his adjutant.

"The Intelligence Department gate has not been found yet. Galactic Republic's attack is very confidential. We did not hear any information about who Commander is from the communications we monitored." The adjutant shook his head.

"That's all, no matter who it is, the opponent's strategy directly hits our weak spot!" Matt-Hona said in a deep voice.

"The opponent doesn't have many troops. I think we can take this opportunity to rush over in one fell swoop!" The adjutant raised his hand and made a chopping gesture. "It would be great if we could kill their Commander II-class."

Matt-Hona shook his head and said, "This is the biggest trap! Now if I am not wrong, this galaxy Republic commander maintains this no more, no less force, and then focus all his energy on expanding logistics supplies and accumulating more resources. Then when he decides to launch an attack, he will send more warships. By then, this army will have sufficient supplies and can do whatever it wants!"

The adjutant's expression changed, "What should we do? We can't sit still and wait for death, right?"

"The opponent's Commander has used warships that have not yet reached the front line to pose a substantial threat to us... clever." Matt-Hona pondered, and after a while, he continued, "We can only take the initiative to attack! This is the only way! We cannot let this Republic fleet gain a foothold in the Yago-Dur system!"

"Then, I will go and arrange preparations for each fleet." the adjutant said.

"Wait a minute!" Matt-Hona raised his hand to stop him, then turned and walked in the other direction of the command center.

There is an office over there, and dozens of the Givin are busy inside.

"Are there any results for this calculation?" Matt-Hona asked one of them, the Givin, who was holding a scepter and wearing a robe, and was obviously different. "Mr. First Class Stellar Mathematician, Mr. Baher-Banak from the Yago-Dur planet."

This person is clearly the most outstanding mathematician Baher-Banak in the Givin. He is also the one who taught General Ling Liang Zero-Modal Probability Theory. In Eriadu System Campaign, his mathematics team also played a key role.

And now, facing the greatest threat in the history of the Yago-Dur system, Baher-Banak naturally brought his own team of mathematicians to the command center to provide computing support for this battle.

Baher-Banak punched the ground with the scepter in his hand, made a crisp sound, and then said, "We have calculated the movement of the three stars in the Argo-Dour system in the next one hundred years. The accuracy is 80%. This calculation result is stored in the supercomputer database of Yago-Dur and can be called at any time. But there is an 80% probability that it cannot support the command of a battle - this is what General Ling taught me."

Matt-Hona nodded and said, "For the result I want, the probability of 80% is indeed not enough."

"So we are trying to narrow the range and shorten the time to improve accuracy. Currently, for the movement of three stars at our location, I have increased the accuracy to 87%, and the time is 10 standard days."

"I must plan an attack based on the movement and interference of the star." Matt-Hona said, "Now that the position data of Galactic Republic fleet has been sent to you, I need a plan. When to launch an attack, will the movement of the star have the greatest impact on this Republic fleet?"
