262 Breaking the whole into pieces, forming a monitoring network with warships
Empire of Kerry.
Imperial Capital.
Looking at the battle report sent back by Kyle.
Everyone in Guren is numb...
That guy DeWitt lost more than 2,000 warships in two months, but you were better off, losing 9,000 warships in more than two hours.
Moreover, he was so stupid that he divided the fleet into eleven groups, giving mankind an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Thinking of this, Guren, who was sitting above him, was simply furious.
However, at this moment, he had forgotten that when Kyle implemented the strategy of dividing his troops and marching, he had praised it in front of a group of ministers.
Look, this Kyle is much smarter, there is nothing humans can do against him!
Of course, as the leader of the empire, he would never admit it even if he thought about it later.
And the underground ministers will not bring trouble to themselves, just mention this matter.
"Your Majesty, what is important now is not accountability, but the issue of Alston."
"Now, Miles has been defeated. The only three new-type fleets that formed an army have been completely wiped out. In addition to the two garrison fleets on Kyle's side, the conventional fleet has also been almost completely lost."
"We are now..."
"There are no more troops to deploy!"
Military Minister Seth looked anxious.
The mighty empire was reduced to the point where it had no troops at its disposal.
Simply outrageous.
"Where is the Third Garrison Fleet that was originally planned to join Miles?"
"Still stationed outside Auston. After all, after Miles' defeat, a single garrison fleet entered Auston. Once it encounters the human fleet, with three times the strength difference, there is no chance of victory."
Hearing this, Gu Lein also nodded.
Now after many battles, the empire has already fully understood the performance of the Zhurong-class battleships.
The overall strength of this warship is definitely on par with the new warships currently being built by the empire. Compared to garrison warships, it is definitely stronger.
In addition, humans have 3,000 warships. Even if 1,500 of them have gone to attack Kyle, the remaining 1,500 ships are definitely not something that a garrison fleet can match.
Therefore, if you enter rashly, you will get nothing.
"What about the deployment of the guard fleets in the surrounding administrative regions?"
"Currently, more than 5,000 guard warships have arrived at the assembly point outside Oston. It is expected that the number will reach tens of thousands in three days!"
"Where's Allston?"
"Nine of the thirty-seven warship production lines in Auston have been destroyed, and a total of 14,000 new warships that have been completed have been lost!"
Hearing this, Guren's heart was bleeding.
Those were 14,000 new warships, but they were destroyed before they were even put into use.
More importantly, it is estimated that some will be lost every day. If we don't think of a solution, the current reserve of more than 60,000 warships will be scrapped in ten days and a half.
"Is it possible to carry out unmanned control of these warships?"
"That's okay, Your Majesty, but if it's unmanned control, simple navigation or jump is okay, but if it wants to fight the human fleet, I'm afraid it won't be able to exert even 20% of its combat power."
"Who said we are going to war with humans? Break all the new wars in Auston into pieces and spread them throughout the star field."
"Ah this..."
After hearing Guren's words, Seth's eyes suddenly widened.
Why didn't I think of this method?
The entire fleet was broken into parts, and through simple unmanned control, they were allowed to go to various places in the Oston star field.
Originally, the human fleet only needed to find their thirty-seven warship manufacturing bases, but if they did this, if humans wanted to destroy all the new empire's warships, they would have to change from finding thirty targets to finding out
More than 40,000 targets.
I'm afraid I won't be able to find them all within a year, right?
This idea is simply brilliant.
"Your Majesty, I will make arrangements immediately. I believe that after such an arrangement, even if humans have great abilities, it is impossible to destroy all our warships every six months and one year."
"And we also have enough time to deploy personnel, gradually take over those battleships, and slowly gather a force that is enough to annihilate the human fleet."
After thinking about all this, Seth immediately became excited.
However, what he ushered in was...
"idiot!"
"Why did I choose you to be the Minister of Military Affairs?"
"Break it into parts and spread the new warships throughout the Auston star field just to delay time?"
"Use your brain carefully. Once more than 40,000 warships are spread out, and then use their deep space radars, you can immediately form a monitoring network covering the Auston star field!"
"And under this surveillance network, the whereabouts of the human fleet will be completely exposed under our noses."
"In this way, we can easily avoid the human fleet and send a large number of warships out of the Oston star field."
"Finally, let the guard fleet assembled outside directly change their equipment. Then they can enter Alston to encircle and suppress the human fleet."
Upon hearing this, Seth's eyes widened again.
Is this what your Majesty actually means?
But if you think about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with it.
More than 40,000 warships are equivalent to more than 40,000 large-scale deep-space radars, and they are also movable deep-space radars.
Once all are deployed, it will be enough to cover the entire Oston star field.
In this way, the actions of the human fleet will be completely exposed to surveillance.
Then, if you want to avoid the human fleet, send the warships to the gathering point of the guard fleet through remote control, and let them complete the change of equipment outside Oston.
hiss...
As long as there are 10,000 new warships in the army, even if the overall quality of the soldiers guarding the fleet is poor, it should be no problem to kill the 3,000 human warships.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will make arrangements immediately!"
------
Hyperspace.
Nearly 1,200 Zhurong-class battleships are shuttled among them under the leadership of the Star.
Around the fleet, colorful streams of light flashed continuously.
"Commander, Colonel Duan Xingke has sent an urgent battle report!"
"The fleet found two new targets yesterday, but they only found battleship factories, not completed battleships and corresponding personnel."
"At the same time, a large number of suspicious targets were discovered in the Oston star field. After confirmation, each target was a new warship of the Kerry Empire."
Jiang Xingchen was not surprised when he heard the report.
After all, breaking it into parts to prevent the new warships from being completely destroyed by humans was one of the several ways that he expected that Guren would respond.
However, there are many different options after breaking it into parts.
Like just to delay time.
For example, it is not to delay time, but to establish a monitoring network.
Another example...
In short, Jiang Xingchen expected that after this operation, there would be at least seven different options.
I just don't know...
Which one did Guren choose?
"Instruction Duan Xingke, with three warships as a unit, also divided the fleet into parts."
"Before I return, he has only one task, and that is to clean up!"
"At least clear out a thirty light-year range for me!"
No matter what Gu Lein's choice is, in short, Jiang Xingchen will not allow his fleet to be completely exposed to the other party's monitoring.
"At the same time, we changed our goal. Instead of entering Allston directly, we went here!"
After looking at Alston and the surrounding star map and pondering for a moment, Jiang Xingchen pointed to one of them and ordered.
