On the first line of defense, 3 million warships did not stop for a moment, firing wave after wave.
Dense live ammunition hit the sea of insects like a torrential rain
The warworms were harvested one after another.
In just two minutes, a conservative estimate of the number of war bugs killed was between 12 and 15 million.
But the problem is, even though they were killed a lot, the Starry Sky Zerg replenished them faster.
Based on the results of the scan.
Now that they have come out of the passage, the number of insect graves crowded at the entrance has reached 318.
The smallest one among them is also 1200 meters high.
And in the insect sea over there, the number of war insects has reached more than 300 million.
Moreover, at this moment, the sea of worms composed of war worms is no longer satisfied with being just a flesh and blood city wall, but has begun to gradually spread outwards, and is about to launch an offensive and sweep across the first line of defense.
This made everyone nervous.
------
"Commander, something is not going well on the front line."
"I'm not blind!"
At this moment, Kyle could still not understand where this problem came from.
The warships of second- and third-level civilizations cannot quickly destroy the insect mound, but can only watch the insect sea form.
On the defense line, apart from the empire and human warships, the only ones capable of quickly destroying the insect mounds are the various defense platforms that have been shipped from the empire over the past two years.
These are all energy weapon platforms, and many of them are even equipped with battleship main gun level weapons.
The problem is, these defense platforms are deployed on the second line of defense.
After all, these are defense platforms manufactured by the empire, and they basically have a range of 3-5 light seconds. How can they be deployed at a position of one light second from the entrance of the passage?
Originally, Kyle's idea was to use the first line of defense to suppress the bugs at the entrance of the passage and consume as much of their power as possible.
After that, the second line of defense takes over.
But now it seems that these three million battleships cannot achieve this goal at all. Instead, they block the attack path of long-range firepower from the rear.
A few years ago, he would have definitely ordered the bombing along with his own warships.
But now...
In the war on the main spiral arm, the empire still relies on these civilizations. If Kyle dares to do this now, once the news is transmitted back to the main spiral arm, it will undoubtedly cause a lot of unnecessary trouble to the empire.
So, withdraw all these warships?
It's not impossible, but if Chongzhong follows the retreating fleet and takes advantage of the situation to directly break into the second front...
The consequences will be even more unimaginable.
"Commander, the human fleet..."
"Um?"
Just when Kyle had a headache, Adjutant Slater beside him suddenly exclaimed.
Hearing this, Kyle also looked at the battlefield situation model in front of him.
Only then did he notice...
The c2 defense zone is now empty.
And before I knew it, the human fleet had appeared on the first line of defense.
------
"Commander, the fleet fire circle has been established."
"Until new orders are issued, each ship maintains its firepower like this."
"Yes, Commander!"
"Wanting, send a message to Kyle and ask him to hand over the command of the front line to me, otherwise we will leave it alone!"
"Understood, I'll go right away!"
More than ten seconds later.
Fu Wanting contacted Kyle.
By chance, Kyle was about to question Jiang Xingchen about why the human fleet left the defense zone without permission.
However, before he could speak, Fu Wanting spoke first.
The first sentence he said made him a little confused.
"If you want to solve the current dilemma, immediately transfer the command of the three million battleships on the front line to the Star."
"Otherwise, you can fight as much as you like, and we won't care!"
Is this an attempt to seize power?
However, it is not right to say that we are seizing power.
What humans want is temporary command power, and even if they get command power, those civilizations will not obey all orders.
For example, if Jiang Xingchen asked them to turn around and beat him, they would never listen.
So it doesn't really matter whether you give it or not.
On the contrary, the current predicament was caused by his own deployment errors.
If he gave the temporary command of the front line to Jiang Xingchen, even if he still couldn't change the result, the responsibility would no longer be his, right?
and...
Maybe I can use this opportunity to kill this human battle star?
His brain was working rapidly, and after weighing it all, Kyle had already made a decision.
"Slat, transfer the command of the fleets on the front line to the human battle stars."
"Commander, this..."
"It's okay, go do it immediately!"
"yes!"
"etc!"
Just when Slat was about to leave, Kyle called him again.
"commander?"
"There is one more thing I need you to do. Contact the second line of defense immediately and say..."
When Slater heard what Kyle said, his eyes widened.
this...
Is your commander a little too courageous?
Are you planning to solve the frontline problem and also take out the human fleet together?
"Commander, if you do this, I'm afraid..."
"What, are you afraid that you can't explain it?"
"It's really hard to explain. If this interrupts the transactions between humans and His Majesty, the impact will be too great."
Nodding, Rust said with a worried look on his face.
This is not only difficult to explain, but if it is not handled well, it may even cause the empire's war on the main spiral arm to be hindered, which will be a lot of fun.
What on earth is your commander thinking?
"It's okay, just do as I say. It doesn't have to be used, I just want to be prepared. I don't want to be unprepared when I have the chance!"
"Besides, even if something goes wrong, it's my fault and it's not your turn yet!"
Facing Slat's concerns, Kyle looked indifferent.
In his opinion, the transaction is now halfway through, and a large number of humans are still on their way to the Orion Arm.
At this time, humans would never dare to stop trading, let alone stand on the opposite side of the empire.
Even if I am still dissatisfied, I have to endure it until the day when the entire transaction is completed.
If that's the case, then why don't you take advantage of the time when humans don't dare to turn against your will and completely get rid of the battle star that poses the greatest threat?
You know, this battle star with brand-new super-light speed navigation technology is like a thorn in the back of the empire.
Imagine that one day it suddenly appeared outside the imperial capital, and a gamma ray cannon came down...
Therefore, if we can really take the opportunity to kill this battle star and let humans break their teeth and swallow it, then His Majesty Gurren will never do anything to himself.
At most, it's just a superficial effort to punish yourself symbolically.
The key is whether that guy Jiang Xingchen will let him take advantage of it!
------
The first line of defense.
Star, bridge.
"Commander, Kyle has agreed to temporarily transfer the command of the front line, and is connecting all battleships to the chain of command of the Star. It is expected to be completed in two minutes!"
"No request?"
"No, it can even be said to be very refreshing!"
"That's it...arrange a group of people to keep an eye on the movements on the second line of defense. No matter how small the changes are, tell me immediately once they are discovered!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Fu Wanting nodded and immediately went to make arrangements.
After all, after following Jiang Xingchen for so long, she could definitely tell that her commander thought Kyle would do something wrong, and...
