Chapter two hundred and ninety-fifth leveling the gap
In addition to the insect swarm fleet, the protoss fleet, the other side of the combined fleet, suffered slightly smaller losses than the insect swarm fleet, but it was not much smaller.
After a brief briefing by Harens, Xue Hua learned that the Protoss fleet had lost nearly half of its main force at once in this round of mutual bombardment of flagship-class battleships' main guns.
Fortunately, most of their warships are omni-machine warships controlled by crystal brains, so the loss of personnel is not very serious.
The combined fleet's total losses in this round of bombardment accounted for more than one-third of the entire fleet's effective strength. It can be said that the vitality and combat power were severely damaged.
But when the Monitoring King Insects reported back the losses of the Xel'Naga fleet on the opposite side, a smile still appeared on Stukov's tense face.
Xue Hua curiously received the battle report information from the main nest mind. After just one glance, the heart hanging in his chest suddenly fell to the ground.
Because at the very beginning of this battle report, it was shown that the ten Leviathans had made the biggest gains in this round of main gun salvos!
Two Xel'Naga Obelisk battleships were destroyed!
"Well done!"
Xue Hua punched hard and praised loudly.
Not to mention anything else, this first victory alone is definitely enough to recover all the losses!
You know, in this level of interstellar fleet confrontation, the importance of flagship-class battleships far exceeds that of other classes of battleships!
This is especially true for the biological fleet!
Taking the insect swarm as an example, each Leviathan of the insect swarm fleet has a large insect nest running inside its body. For the loss of other battleships except Kraken, the large insect nest in the Leviathan can be quickly replenished.
The same is true for the Xel'Naga fleet on the opposite side. Their obelisk battleships obviously also have incubation and modulation systems that can instantly replenish fleet losses. Therefore, as long as the flagship is not damaged, other battleships will be lost as long as sufficient time and resources are given.
Support can also be quickly added.
The flagship of a fleet composed entirely of biological warships is equivalent to a large-scale troop supply base. If their fleet flagship cannot be quickly destroyed in a fleet battle, then their troop supply will be almost endless!
This is also the biggest advantage of the biological battleship fleet!
In particular, in addition to the ten Leviathan flagships of the insect fleet, there are also nine Behemoth logistics supply fleets in the void outside the battlefield!
With these flagship-level supply ships, which are even larger than Leviathan, it won't take long for the swarm's fleet to be replenished continuously with energy from the rear!
This is why Stukov dared to withstand the fierce artillery fire of the numerically superior Xel'Naga fleet and launch the charge first!
But to be honest, Stukov himself had to bear a lot of risks and pressure in the round of flagship main gun fire just now.
Because not only does it know the advantages of the biological fleet, but the commander of the Xel'Naga fleet must also know it.
Taking the main gun attack just now, Xue Hua's perception clearly captured that at least half of the power of the opponent's flagship main gun was concentrated on the "Blade Queen" Leviathan at his feet.
Half of the firepower was also concentrated on the other Leviathan.
But Stukov's brilliance only ended in this aspect.
When it allocated fire channels, it did not pour all the flagship artillery fire on the opponent's two locked obelisk battleships. At the same time, it could not even look at the opponent's largest obelisk battleship.
Didn't even take a look!
Stukov cleverly divided the firepower of the ten Leviathans into three parts, using 60% of the firepower to bombard the opponent's two obelisk warships, and the remaining 40% of the firepower was used for the six
Become the main firepower to open the channel!
It knew that the other party would definitely protect the two obelisk warships it was targeting by any means just like what it had just done. Therefore, if all the firepower was allocated to them, it would be caused by the other warships risking their lives to block it.
A huge waste of firepower.
The reason why the main gun salvo of the Xel'Naga fleet did not destroy any Leviathan was because Stukov mobilized all the mobile warships to form a formation in front of the "Queen of Blades" and the locked Leviathan.
Two thick "human walls" were formed.
With a large number of other warships sharing the firepower, coupled with Leviathan's own strong defense, it was able to withstand the opponent's main gun attack without any danger. Even so, the other Leviathan was still
The opponent was severely damaged to the point where he could no longer participate in the war.
Under Stukov's ingenious allocation of fire channels, the "human wall" of the Xel'Naga fleet had dedicated firepower to clear it. When these "protective walls" blocking the front were quickly cleared, the people facing them
Naturally, Xel'Naga's obelisk battleship cannot withstand the six-ray main gun that drives straight in...
This was a transcendence in detailed operations, and it was precisely this detail that allowed the swarm fleet to gain an absolute upper hand in the decisive battle with the Xel'Naga fleet's flagship main gun!
At present, except for the largest obelisk battleship that has been silent and is suspected to be the ship of Narud, the number of obelisk battleships in the Xel'Naga fleet has dropped to ten.
This number is almost equal to the number of Leviathan in the swarm!
When the Leviathan, which was sent outside the battlefield due to serious injuries, recovers, the Xel'Naga Fleet and the United Fleet will be at the same starting line in terms of the number of flagship-class battleships!
This turning point is of great significance, because it means that from now on, the numerical advantage of the Xel'Naga fleet is gone!
After reading the battle report, Xue Hua couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. This fleet battle had brought him a lot of pressure from the beginning.
The numerical advantage of the Xel'Naga fleet has also been clearly demonstrated in the previous waves of battles.
At the very least, if there were not those extra Obelisk battleships, Stukov would not be so timid when giving the order to fire the main gun salvo.
Fortunately, Stukov has now eliminated the opponent's advantages one by one through his exquisite command art.
The next fleet battle will depend on the methods of the commanders on both sides!
In this regard, Xue Hua absolutely believes in Stukov's ability!
...
And just when Xue Hua was delighted with the result of the main gun attack just now, the Xel'Naga fleet on the opposite side was in the rear formation, and inside the giant obelisk battleship that had not moved since the beginning of the war, Xel'Naga was
The commander of the Ernaga fleet is being reprimanded by his master.
"Conosodas, I gave you the greatest degree of trust, and this is what you give me in return?"
The deafening sound echoed in the dark void inside the ship. Although there did not seem to be any anger in the tone, upon hearing these words, the behemoth body in the black void began to tremble crazily.
"Please...please forgive me, master...please give me another chance to save the situation..."
A giant monster with a demon-like head and a giant snake-like body, with six purple-black wings of light flying on its back, begged the voice in a pleading tone. Its huge body was constantly twisting and shaking, and seemed to be suffering.
In great pain...
"Redeem it? What else can be redeemed from the farce you acted?
Enough! It seems that it is indeed time for me to take action personally..."
