295 Ruin the coalition fleet, counterattack the main arm!
As Jiang Xingchen said, hyperspace navigation is not a jump, and the Federation currently has no means to interfere with it.
Therefore, it is not an easy task to capture the opponent before he appears.
It can even be said that unless the other party is stupid, it is almost impossible.
Of course, using several battleships to use tractor beams at the same time can indeed prevent them from entering hyperspace.
After all, even if the hyperspace window is opened, it doesn't make sense if the battleship doesn't go in, right?
But the problem is that the scope of action of the tractor beam is very limited, almost equivalent to having to ride on the face before it can be used effectively.
If you want a warship to ride on you, you must accurately obtain the coordinates of the enemy ship without any errors.
Only in this way can this tactic, which is like an interstellar version of a scalpel, be implemented.
So, what do you do if you want to get accurate coordinates?
The only way is to get within a hundred light seconds of the enemy ship and then use tactical radar to conduct precise scanning.
But you have to be close to the enemy at a distance of a hundred light seconds without being discovered by the enemy...
Well, this is another impossible task.
As for deep space radar, it can indeed detect enemy ships thirty-eight light years away.
However, this detection method cannot obtain precise coordinates, and the error is usually between hundreds or even thousands of light seconds.
Although, this error uses the universe as a reference, so it can be regarded as almost no error.
But for those who want to carry out scalpel-like precision tactics, this error is a natural chasm.
For a moment, everyone in the conference room had a trace of sadness on their faces.
It's really...
Can't think of a solution.
Even Jiang Xingchen was not talking this time.
------
Three days later.
Wormhole defense line.
"Commander, it's almost the scheduled time."
"Three...two...one..."
"zero!
"
Well, after Fu Wanting shouted out zero, there was no loud noise or any visual impact.
Of course.
After all, the zero-point bomb is inside the wormhole, so naturally they can't see it.
Not to mention whether it can be seen or not, it is impossible to confirm whether the zero-point bomb detonated successfully as expected.
One minute...
Two minutes...
Three minutes...
Wormholes still exist!
This time, Fu Wanting's face looked a little unhappy.
"commander..."
"Wait a little longer!"
...
...
Another few minutes passed.
There was still no response, and the wormhole still stood in place.
At this time, even Jiang Xingchen began to beat his heart.
Is it possible...
Really failed?
And just then...
"Commander, look!"
On the side, Fu Wanting's eyes suddenly lit up, she pointed at an observation image projected on the bridge and shouted.
In the picture, the entrance to the wormhole, which was originally without ripples, was boiling like boiling water at this moment.
A few seconds later, a burst of energy suddenly erupted from the wormhole and swept across an area of at least one light-year.
Fortunately, under Jiang Xingchen's order, all the defenders had already broken away from the defense line and retreated ten light years away.
Even the defense platform was towed away by the fleet using tractor beams.
Therefore, although this energy was very violent, it only destroyed the detection and monitoring equipment left by Jiang Xingchen.
Other than that, the losses on the Federation's side were minimal.
"Report, all detection devices near the wormhole entrance are damaged."
"Report, due to the raging energy ejected from the wormhole, the observation system is blocked and remote observation is temporarily impossible!"
"Report..."
In the bridge of the Star, reports continued one after another.
Until a few minutes later.
"Report, the observation system has been restored and the target is being recalibrated!"
"The target has been calibrated, start observing!"
Soon, the previously closed observation screen was once again projected virtually.
It's just that the wormhole that was supposed to be in the picture...
But disappeared!
"Are you sure the coordinates are correct?"
"Yes, the coordinates are correct!"
"It's appropriate to send out a reconnaissance ship at close range!"
"Yes, Commander!"
A minute later, a small reconnaissance ship was released from a Shirasawa-class aircraft carrier and quickly jumped towards the wormhole.
...
...
Watching the scout ship leave, no one on the bridge spoke.
Everyone is waiting.
Waiting for the reconnaissance ship to send back the final confirmation message.
Finally, after three minutes...
"This is the Overlook reconnaissance ship. We have arrived at the mission coordinates and are searching for the target!"
"It is now confirmed that the wormhole has been closed. Repeat, the wormhole has been closed!"
Everyone in the bridge heard it.
But no one spoke.
Until a few seconds later, a burst of cheers suddenly broke out.
As for the five million warships of the coalition fleet, were they killed?
Jiang Xingchen really doesn’t know this.
There is still debate within the scientific community within the Federation as to what will happen to the warships still inside after the wormhole is destroyed.
Some people believe that when a wormhole collapses, the horrific collapse effect will tear apart all objects inside it in an instant.
Some people also believe that wormholes have a self-protection mechanism, and when faced with imminent collapse, they will choose to actively close to avoid collapse.
After the wormhole is actively closed, all fleets inside it will be forcibly sent out.
However, it is not known where these fleets will be sent.
It could be a few light years away, or it could be...
The other side of the universe!
In addition, there are many different speculations.
But no matter which one is correct, these five million warships are basically unlikely to pose a threat to the Federation again.
Even though it was not sent away at all and exited the wormhole safely, there is still a very long distance between the Orion arm and the main spiral arm.
And, this is not just a matter of distance, but more...
Except for the four main spiral arms and several secondary spiral arms, the rest of the Milky Way is a sea of void stars.
The most important thing is that there are a lot of space turbulence in these areas of the void star sea.
Such an environment would definitely be impossible to traverse using the jump engine alone.
The situation is actually somewhat similar to the Death Nebula in the Arm of Orion.
It's just that the density of the turbulent flow is not that high, but the turbulent flow is countless times greater than the Death Nebula.
Of course, if you are extremely lucky and a child of destiny, it is still possible to use the jump engine to slowly cross the void of stars without any danger.
Okay, that's a bit far-fetched.
In short, the only fleet of the main spiral arm coalition that can still threaten the Federation no longer exists at this moment.
therefore...
"The second phase of the operation has officially begun!"
"According to the scheduled plan, the 2nd and 3rd fleets are heading to the fourth main spiral arm, targeting the Republic of Lain."
"The Tenth Fleet and our First Fleet are heading to the third main spiral arm, the target is Fierna."
"At the same time, send special reconnaissance ships to the entrances and exits of the first and second main spiral arms on the Galactic Center Channel to monitor the actions of the Kerry Empire and the Freedom Alliance!"
