Chapter 3776, border testing
Du Yuanzhi and Guo Zhen made it clear that they had no intention of letting go of this mechanically civilized patrol fleet.
The experience of fighting in the early years made them clearly know that the mechanical tribe basically acts in a group.
The combination of powerful intelligence collection, analysis and calculation capabilities, astonishing numbers and integrated cooperation is the most powerful part of the Machinery Clan.
Therefore, it is generally impossible for the Machine Race to act alone. During a battle, if you can see a Machine Race on the battlefield, it means that there is at least one Machine Race troop nearby.
In this way, it is not easy for them to capture such a small fleet consisting of two to three hundred starships.
Once a war begins, a fleet of this size will never be seen again.
If they were let go this time and allowed to escape, Guo Zhen and Du Yuanzhi would probably feel like they had lost a hundred million.
Fortunately, this patrol fleet of mechanical civilization cannot leave either.
A small fleet composed of two to three hundred starships was not worth mentioning in a battle of this level. After their vanguard fleet of the civilization of all worlds came up, they cooperated with Guo Zhen's sandstorm troops and were quickly defeated.
Most of it.
And at this moment, Du Yuanzhi's voice rang out from the communication device in his ear...
"Attention, general! A large unknown force appears on the periphery. It should be reinforcements from mechanical civilization!"
Where they are now, since they have bumped into the patrol fleet of mechanical civilization, it means that they are not far from the border of mechanical civilization.
It is not an exaggeration to even say that we have reached the other party's territory.
Under this premise, the efficiency of the opponent's sending troops to support is of course very fast.
However, Guo Zhen and Du Yuanzhi had no plans to retreat just like that.
Although this wave, they came with the purpose of containing the mechanical civilization, and did not want to fight with each other head-on.
But don’t they have the first mover advantage now?
In Du Yuanzhi's view, since they have the dominant position, there is no loss in seizing the opportunity to suppress the opposing forces.
Anyway, their expeditionary army of civilizations from all realms is here, so they are not afraid of the other side.
To withdraw directly would be a waste of their current advantage.
With this idea in mind, after communicating with Zhou Yi and reaching a consensus, Du Yuanzhi quickly arranged his troops.
In this important border area, the size of the mechanical civilization's garrison cannot be small.
When this wave comes, preliminary visual inspection shows that the number of starships dispatched in an emergency has reached tens of thousands, and there is a high probability that there will be follow-up support.
But Du Yuanzhi was not panicked.
At this stage, in terms of the overall strength of the army, they still have the upper hand when combined with the army.
Without saying a word, he opened the shield and maximized its strength, and the main fleet directly pressed forward from the front.
The mechanical civilization fleet, relying on their range advantage, naturally opened fire ahead of them.
There is nothing more to say about this. My old rival has already known this matter to its core.
Du Yuanzhi lined up his troops all the way, and the sandstorm troops headed by Guo Zhen, led by the martial arts legions who came up with follow-up support, directly outflanked them from one side.
The Orc Legion of their Ten Thousand Realms Civilization and Zhao Heng's Orc Legion merged into one force and began to outflank them from the other side.
In the early battles on the No. 2 battlefield, many of their methods on the side of Ten Thousand Realms Civilization were inevitably exposed to the other side.
This means that at this stage, to a large extent, they can only compete with each other with hard power!
At present, they still have a clear advantage in terms of comprehensive military strength, so it is not a waste to fight together.
After withstanding the initial long-range energy weapon fire from the mechanical civilization side, the Wanjie civilization side, which narrowed the distance to a certain extent, officially launched a counterattack.
On the Dark Star Fleet and Doomhammer Fleet, elemental magic cannons and thermonuclear energy cannons fired alternately, erupting into quite astonishing fleet firepower.
As for the city-breaking cannon, they have no plans to use it yet.
In this wave, Du Yuanzhi simply wanted to take the opportunity to further reduce the strength of the troops stationed on the opposite mechanical civilization border. After the battle was almost done, it was time to withdraw. He had no intention of directly attacking the mechanical civilization border.
Under this premise, the city-breaking cannon can be regarded as a trump card for their civilization of all realms.
If they successfully reduce the strength of the mechanical civilization border garrison on the opposite side while retaining their trump card, then their expeditionary army will definitely make a profit this time.
On the contrary, if this hole card is played out.
Taking into account the intelligence value of this and the subsequent impact on the subsequent battle of their All Worlds Civilization Expeditionary Army.
Then this wave, I feel a little bit of blood loss...
In this way, the armies of both sides fought for several rounds. The combined army, which currently had the advantage in comprehensive combat power, under the joint command of Zhou Yi and Du Yuanzhi, quickly made the mechanical civilization border garrison on the opposite side pay some price.
At the same time, Zhou Yi, who had been responsible for coordinating the overall situation, was thinking that the follow-up reinforcements from the opposite side should be arriving soon.
There may be risks if we delay any longer.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yi immediately issued an order and the entire army retreated.
After receiving this order, Du Yuanzhi was not willing to fight, and began to command the troops to fight and retreat, and then completely withdraw after establishing a distance.
And almost as they were withdrawing, in the distance in the void, the armies of mechanical civilization stationed on this side of the border began to arrive one after another.
In a short period of time, the number of starships alone reached more than 30,000. After the formation was spread out, almost the entire surrounding star field was crowded.
Fortunately, Zhou Yi made accurate judgment and acted in time.
Otherwise, when the large force of mechanical civilization comes over, even if their combined army does not suffer heavy losses in one wave, a hard battle will probably be inevitable.
For those who are new here, it is not a good thing to fall into a hard battle as soon as they come up.
Stay away from this area for the time being.
Anyway, it is basically certain that they are not far from the border of mechanical civilization.
If they want to contain the other side on this side of the border for a long time, they first need a well-located frontline base.
This frontline base does not need to be too close to the border of mechanical civilization, or in other words, it is safer if it is further away.
Under normal circumstances, the first choice for the frontline base must be the planet.
But the planets in the nearby area have definitely been locked by mechanical civilization for a long time.
If planets in these third-party areas are chosen to be stationed, then if the border garrison troops of mechanical civilization take the initiative to attack, a head-on conflict will inevitably occur.
In addition, their troops from the civilizations of all realms can actually use the dwarves' void mobile base to build a frontline base directly in the void environment for garrison use.
