Christina arrogantly believed that it was too far-fetched to try to block her fleet of 20,000 with just two thousand Swarm fleets. She could penetrate the Swarm fleet with just a frontal breakthrough, and then annihilate all the Swarm fleets.
The result of the battle was far beyond her expectations. The Swarm fleet showed extremely strong resilience and really blocked them in a short time. How could steel lose to flesh and blood in terms of quality?
In fact, it is not difficult to understand. In the past, the Steel Fleet's ability to defeat a hundred mainly relied on field shields and point defense systems. Now Swarm's weapons basically have penetration effects. The Steel Fleet can only use its own armor to resist acid, plasma and self-destructing mosquitoes.
On the contrary, the Swarm fleet not only strengthened its carapace, but also provided Psionics shields with Youworm. For some heavy-duty Zerg units, Youworm can also provide them with frost and mist armor (Frost Serpent's talent), which is equivalent to doubling the defense.
There are no bunkers in the universe, and both sides can exchange firepower without any obstacles. The battle loss ratio can be imagined.
If the Ivans fleet alone would have cost at least the same amount to eat these two thousand Swarm fleets, fortunately the Amfinli living fleet was also there.
The advantage of the living fleet is that it combines the advantages of steel and life. It can not only make use of technological weapons and equipment, but also be as tough and self-healing as life.
In particular, the thick bark that wraps the entire battleship is a kind of light yet hard armor that can greatly absorb damage.
In starship battles, although firepower is crucial, thick armor and the ability to take hits are also a huge advantage.
The entire blocking battle lasted for two hours, and the two thousand Swarm fleet was completely destroyed. The combined fleet lost less than 500, of which 300 were the living fleets of the Anfenli civilization. They were the key to victory.
Originally, Christina wanted to pursue them, but then she thought of the excellent combat effectiveness of the Swarm fleet, and the direction they were retreating was not in the Kingdom's territory. In order to preserve her strength, she chose to prioritize the elimination of fighting bugs in the agricultural world.
Eventually, the world will be recovered by the Evans, but the damage caused by Swarm will be difficult to cure in a short time. They have also left behind a large number of viruses. It may be difficult for this agricultural world to return to its previous state.
Of course, this is not the only world that was destroyed by the Swarm fleet. The one hundred thousand Swarm fleet relied on the intelligence support of Johnny's underground church to destroy a large number of planets in the entire balance star field. Trillions of people were slaughtered, and many prosperous worlds were turned into ruins.
In addition to the destruction of the war, a large number of people became refugees. They fled the Balance Star Territory and went to Stellaris Council, a place with stronger strength. The economic situation of the entire Balance Star Territory suffered a major blow.
This is what Johnny wants to see. With the rapid development of the underground church through social chaos, more civilizations have become puppets controlled by him secretly. In one month, half of the 100,000 Swarm fleet is left.
Zhang Han was also very surprised when he saw this kind of battle report. He had never thought that a mere hundred thousand Swarm fleet could have such a huge effect.
Cadian and the other two occupied galaxies have been turned into impregnable fortresses by him during this period. He not only built the Dyson membrane, but also planted spore towers all over the planet.
The giant meteorites in the asteroid belt outside the galaxy were also dragged to the entrance of the hyperspace channel. He also followed Terran and became a 'worm' city.
He still felt that it was not safe, so every once in a while, he would let the galaxy in his hand send the hatched Swarm fleet to the front line. The total number of fleets in the three galaxies exceeded 1.2 million.
With the strength of Stellaris Council, it is still possible to counterattack three galaxies, so Zhang Han has been waiting for that day to come and continues to strengthen the defenses of the galaxies.
Now, after seeing Johnny's battle report, and judging from the intelligence coming out of the Balance Star Territory, Stellaris Council not only has no counterattack plan, but is actually preparing to retreat.
The fleets of the four permanent members of the Security Council in the Swarm-ravaged star field are all evacuating, and many fortress planets were abandoned without experiencing war. The transportation of a large number of troops and military supplies cannot be concealed, and many supplies are directly handed over to the civilization of the Balance Star field because it is more expensive to transport them back.
"This is too cowardly. Why are there such disunity? Stellaris Council wouldn't have another name called 'Da Song'." After seeing the various intelligence and analysis sent by Johnny, Zhang Han even had a feeling that as long as he studied hard, he could eat the entire Tianping Starfield in a short time.
He first sent Johnny a fleet of 100,000 Swarms, and also hatched five war Cerebrates that were good at military affairs and gave them to him, asking him to build Hatcherys and hatch a fleet inside the secret balance star field.
Just when Zhang Han felt that the time was right and was ready to attack, the intelligence from his inner galaxy surprised him.
A steel fleet of more than 20,000 people is heading towards his hinterland, and the target is most likely Tabi Star.
At this time, his hinterland was very empty. Most of the fleets had gone out on expeditions. Those guarding those galaxies were the newly hatched Swarm fleet, and the half-hatched eggs had not yet been stored.
It is impossible to attack the Tianping Star Territory. Although the best thing to do in this situation is to change homes, Zhang Han is very worried about his sense of humanity. If Tabi Star falls and loses his sense of humanity, he will lose his life.
After leaving Skati and Koret to defend the galaxy, Zhang Han personally returned to the defense with a fleet of 400,000 Swarm, and at the same time ordered all the newly hatched Swarm fleets to continue to assemble towards Tabi Star.
The purpose of directly attacking the incoming fleet without enough time to assemble is to delay time, and the battle losses are not important.
Two days later, more detailed information came. This fleet was the fleet of the long-lost Sapphire people, and their Titan battleships were also there.
Zhang Han now regrets it very much. Cerebrate's calculations speculated that the Sapphire fleet was hidden at a fork in a certain hyperspace channel, so it avoided the main fleet led by Zhang Han.
This is a risky and shrewd tactic, but Zhang Han fell into it because he was too careless. Cerebrate recommends that the Sapphire people pay more attention to tactics.
"It's as uncomfortable as being caught in a train at home. I will do more investigating next time." Zhang Han warned himself in his heart.
Judging from the distance, if the Sapphire Fleet directly inserted Tabi Star, it would definitely not be able to catch up, and would be one month short of the distance to the hyperspace channel.
But that doesn't mean that his support is meaningless. After the last invasion, there are already a lot of spore towers on Tabi Star.
In addition, Tabi Star is one of the most developed galaxies. All the initial energy was invested in development. The space hatchery has completely matured, with a daily output of four thousand Swarm fleets. It should be able to sustain it for a while with the help of explosive troops.
