485 Within 15 minutes, the battle will be resolved!
Year 52 of the New Federation.
Kaitianhao is still in the star ring transmission channel.
All fleet commanders, as well as the commanders of the nine legions, have all accessed the virtual war room.
"In three hours, we will arrive at the Sid galaxy in the Sculptor galaxy group."
"Due to Liu Tao's outstanding performance, the fleet of mechanical civilization suffered heavy losses. Currently, there are still 377 Slayer warships and about 120,000 Annihilator autonomous combat weapons left."
"A few days ago, Liu Tao's Scorpion Pirates began to deliberately expose their location and gradually led them to the preset battlefield."
While talking, Jiang Xingchen opened a three-dimensional star chart.
It is within the Totobar star field.
Among them, it marks the arrival point of the pioneering adversary, the location of the Scorpion Pirate Group, and the mechanical civilization fleet.
Moreover, the direction of travel of the Scorpion Pirates and the Mechanical Civilization has also been marked.
It can be seen that the Scorpion Pirates are gradually approaching the landing point of the pioneering fleet, while the mechanical civilization is several light years away, hot pursuit.
After more than eight months of hunting each other, mechanical civilization has now learned to be smart.
All fleets are gathered together and no longer scattered.
As a result, Liu Tao has not been able to achieve any results in the past three months.
After all, even if there are only more than 100,000 Annihilators left, Liu Tao's 1,300 warships cannot resist head-on.
What's more, among the 1,300 warships, 1,000 are from before the second generation of the Federation, and even the current Interstellar Waterway Management Department looks down on them...
Zhurong II battleship.
Not to mention the lack of space shields and zero-point energy modules, even the weapon system is just a castrated version of space weapons.
Its combat power is even slightly inferior to that of the United Type I battleship.
You know, in recent years, even the Interstellar Channel Management Department, which was known as the child picked up by the military, the guard fleet...
At this time, a large area of the fleet has been replaced with Joint Type II battleships.
Once the space shield is opened, is it good for one Zhurong II to fight several ships?
Therefore, Jiang Xingchen is still very satisfied with Liu Tao's ability to achieve this step.
He simply used his skills of escaping, hiding, hiding, and sap fighting to the extreme.
Even the mastermind of mechanical civilization was stuck several times.
"Duan Xingke!"
"commander!"
When Duan Xingchen heard Jiang Xingchen's roll call, he stood up and responded loudly.
"Your first legion belongs to the first sequence in the passage!"
"In three hours, Liu Tao will guide the fleet of mechanical civilization here!"
As he said that, another mark appeared on the three-dimensional star map again.
This location is only twelve light seconds away from the landing point of the Federation fleet.
"According to Liu Tao's report, the mechanical civilization's Annihilator autonomous combat weapon has a maximum range of twelve light seconds."
"Everyone should have read the briefing carefully. If you use space cutting or space penetrating cannons to attack, the hit rate at this distance will be extremely low."
"Because, those Annihilator autonomous combat weapons are not only small in size, but also..."
"Due to the lack of biological control, it can achieve acceleration far beyond our understanding, as well as various unreasonable maneuvers."
"So, a single-point attack at a long distance not only wastes energy, but also has little effect."
"However, what you are deploying now are already Pangu II-type battleships. Compared with the Pangu I-type battleships, the biggest change in weapons is the addition of space compression cannons."
"Although the maximum range of this weapon is only 12 light seconds, which is far lower than the 50 light seconds that the other two weapons can achieve, but..."
"The space compression cannon is a surface strike weapon, even though the so-called surface strike range is not large!
"
"But the autonomous combat weapons used to deal with these mechanical civilizations are enough!"
"At that time, Liu Tao will find a way to make those Annihilators' autonomous combat weapons more concentrated as possible, and all you have to do is to defeat them as soon as possible!"
"Can it be done?"
Putting his right hand on the table, Jiang Xingchen looked at Duan Xingke and asked loudly.
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
"Very good, the first fleet of the first army is responsible for opening the situation, and the second and third fleets are responsible for finishing the situation. I hope that the battle will be over by the time the second army arrives!"
"Yes, Commander!"
According to the diameter of the Federation's ultra-large long-range star ring, coupled with the extensive use of space expansion and space storage technology in the Pangu II battleship, the size is much smaller than the Pangu I battleship.
Therefore, even if the diameter of the star ring is far less than that of the sextant a, each wave is enough to enter thousands of warships.
Even if one wave is calculated every 30 seconds, it only takes 15 minutes for all the First Legion's 30,000 warships to arrive.
In other words, Jiang Xingchen's request for Duan Xingke is to end the battle within 15 minutes.
This requirement is not too high. After all, the opponent has more than 100,000 Annihilators and more than 300 Slayers.
However, Duan Xingke did not show any difficulty with this request.
On the contrary, it looked like it was natural.
------
More than two hours later.
The Sid galaxy, somewhere in the Totobar star field.
The Scorpion Pirates, who had been fleeing all the way, seemed to have accepted their fate at this moment, and they all stopped.
The fleet of mechanical civilization also surrounded them.
They learned to be smart, and the Slayer warships without combat power hid far away for less than ten light seconds, and only released more than 100,000 Annihilators to launch an offensive.
On the other side, the Poisonous Scorpion Pirates showed no sign of weakness. They were tens of light seconds away and were firing on all cylinders.
But the hit rate...
Almost zero.
Fifty light seconds, even if space attacks can ignore the speed of light limit, it still takes more than ten seconds to cross this distance, almost 17.8 seconds.
This time...
Even without the speed of the Annihilator, there is still a high probability of completing the evasion.
Therefore, although it was only a one-sided attack, there was no loss on the other side.
This situation lasted for a long time.
And because the Scorpion Pirates only have 1,300 battleships, and because the mechanical civilization's more than 100,000 Annihilators are not spread out very far, either.
After all, Mechanical Civilization and Liu Tao have been hunting each other for more than half a year.
According to past rules, once there are signs that they are about to be surrounded, they may just run away.
Finally, after a period of time, more than 100,000 Annihilators entered within 15 light seconds, and were about to enter their shooting range.
But at this time.
The area behind it, more than ten light seconds away, suddenly became visible to the naked eye and became somewhat blurry.
Thousands of warships soon sailed out.
Its appearance is very similar to the Pangu-class in the Scorpion Pirate Group, but its size is less than one-tenth of it, making it very mini.
And the next moment, these thousand battleships...
