The team leader confirmed his judgment. Unfortunately, the main force of the second team was still some distance away from the lone star beast.
Although the star beast is huge, it is a small target compared to war machines like starships.
The distance is long, the target is small...the main fleet cannot cause effective damage to them, so they can only count on the fleet coming forward.
However, the Fourth Master is not very interested in this suggestion. "The main purpose is to rescue the besieged friendly forces and arm the merchant ships to attack the star beasts!"
However, Asura Supreme's flash was really clever. Although the two armed merchant ships gathered Martian beasts, it was difficult to lock them.
Some attacks fell on it, but the main guns of the two ships were always slightly different.
The fourth master didn't care. He believed that the level of artificial intelligence was high enough.
——If we continue fighting with this efficiency, we will be able to deal with the opponent sooner or later. There is no need to rush into a war.
Qu Jianlei didn't say anything else - the new enemy is really good to fight like this, he must give Xiaohu room to grow!
But the team leader is really annoyed. What are your regiment-level ships doing? Why don't they participate in the focus fire?
However, at this time, it was really inconvenient for him to say anything on the channel.
When the battle reaches this level, you still have to point out the local tactics of the starships ahead. That is not a qualified commander!
In this case, you must give enough trust to the frontline commanders and fighters, otherwise your hands will be stretched too far and you will not know how to grasp the big and let go of the small.
Besides, even if he is willing to give the order, the other party will not listen. On the contrary, it will affect the commander's authority, and he will only be looked down upon.
But he still couldn't help but mutter, "These guys really don't know the lethality of the supreme star beast."
The adjutant next to him heard what he said and reminded him in a low voice, "The weaknesses of the Star Beast and the Star Nest... have not yet been communicated to the lower level."
——If Hill’s team could get the information earlier, maybe the record would be better?
Hearing this, the team leader nodded without hesitation, "Transmit it immediately... Oh, I'm just giving out battle orders."
Speaking of which, it is also the fault of the military itself. It kept private information too tight, and the fleet responsible for guarding did not have enough information.
This may not only be due to concerns about information leakage, but it is also normal - who in the military can resist the temptation of military glory?
However, after encountering a surprise attack, the battle broke out hastily, and the team leader was in a hurry as he only focused on making arrangements to respond to the enemy.
It’s finally okay, it’s not too late to make up for it now!
After the relevant information was issued, the fleet commander's order also arrived - resolutely hold back the attacking star beast!
The instruction was quite ruthless, "...even if the second team is completely exhausted, we must ensure that the frontline encirclement and suppression can be successfully completed!"
The appearance of the second star beast brood really surprised everyone.
Before this, they had never discovered that the star beast brood could fight together.
Otherwise, they would have conveyed the relevant information long ago. Why would they wait until the battle started before hastily distributing the information?
In the final analysis, it is still a cognitive issue. The military believes that as a biological group, territorial awareness is very common.
Groups from different nests may not even be able to coexist peacefully, let alone fight together.
This involves the security of the living space and the exclusivity of resources.
If any ethnic group wants to develop and grow, internal stability and external expansion are inevitable.
Even between the three human kingdoms, there will be fierce battles, let alone the star beasts?
Now it turns out that their judgment was wrong. Star beasts from different nests can really join forces to fight against the enemy!
Of course, now that the matter is here, there is no need to consider these causes and effects anymore. The key is to stabilize the battle situation first.
Think about things like cognitive errors...it won't be too late after the war.
The fleet has taken redundancy into account here, so it keeps the second team on alert and is prohibited from leaving.
The accident happened so suddenly, the headquarters could only count on the second team to hold back the new brood reinforcements.
Only in this way can they concentrate their efforts to annihilate the first brood, and then attack the second brood.
This is the only possibility to turn defeat into victory, and the commander has no choice.
The leader of the second team was stunned for a moment before replying, "We will try our best...how long do we need to persist?"
However, the above answer still makes people feel helpless, "We are not very sure, at least two days... are you confident?"
The team leader answered very candidly. "I don't have any confidence. There are too many unknown forces."
"I'll do my best...I promise to hold him back before I die on duty."
He said it very tragically, but at the same time, the Fourth Master was so angry that he wanted to curse, "I'm a bastard..."
"The characteristics and weaknesses of the star beasts and star nests have only been revealed now... Did these people grow up eating SHI?"
"Okay, calm down," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "At least we haven't been damaged yet, let's focus on fighting."
At this time, the besieged small fleet of one regiment and three battalions also discovered the lone Asura Supreme.
Although they were struggling to resist the siege, several starships still opened fire on the six-armed Asura.
And it is obvious that some starships have digested part of the newly obtained information, and even a company-class ship participated in the attack with its main gun.
In fact, before this, the main guns of company-class ships could not even break through the defenses of small nests, let alone sub-nests.
But now, their morale has obviously improved,
In particular, a dilapidated company-class ship that had lost almost half of its mobility actually tried to snipe the star beast from a distance.
This kind of fighting spirit is advisable, but Claire, who noticed this scene, couldn't help complaining, "You're still robbing monsters after this?"
"Let them grab it," Tianyin said calmly. Since entering the A-level, she has obviously become more talkative in the team.
"Anyway, even if they kill the supreme star beast, they won't get any spoils."
This is also the reason why the team is not very keen on killing the Supreme Star Beast.
At the same time, the eight A-level people watching the battle in the captain's room also sighed, "It seems that the Star Beast Supreme has been ignored a bit?"
"They want to rescue the Self-Defense Forces fleet." The captain has already seen the purpose of his own starship. "The goal is very clear."
"I don't think this is a good idea," spoke up the first mate, the Class A who was almost publicly executed.
"On the battlefield, each unit has its own mission, and we must fully believe in the combat effectiveness of friendly forces..."
Anyway, they have nothing to do but comment on the battle situation, "Use friendly forces to delay the opponent's opportunity and strive for greater results."
Then he turned his head and looked at Hill, "Sir, don't you think this should be the case?"
"The fighting spirit is different," Hill said evenly.
"There is no correct answer on the battlefield...there are only results, no assumptions."
The captain shook his head, "If it were you, I would definitely kill the Star Beast Supreme. That would be a military achievement!"
"Not so sure?" Hill didn't care about the other party's comments about him. He could still afford to make this joke.
Seriously, he frowned and muttered softly, "I still underestimated the other party's intelligence..."
"This is not a race war, it is a war of civilizations."
While they were analyzing, the three starships of Qu Jianlei's team had already moved forward to the vicinity of the besieged fleet.
The situation of the besieged fleet is already quite bad. One sub-nest is keeping an eye on the regiment-level ships and attacking them, and there are five or six smaller nests.
The combat power of the battalion-level ships is almost the same as that of the small nest, but the problem is that they only have three battalion-level ships.
There are more than ten company-class ships, but they are basically unable to break through the defenses.
——The information issued by the fleet pointed out the weakness of the small nest. Once hit, the company-level ship can also perform meritorious service.
Unfortunately, the information came a little late, and the weakness... where is it so easy to hit?
The latter is particularly important. Company-class ships can only attack weak points, so two or three company-class ships can hardly attack small nests.
Once the opponent's attack hits the company-level ship, it is enough to break the defense.
In just a short period of time, one battalion-level ship was seriously injured, and almost all company-level ships suffered varying degrees of damage.
Among them, two company-class ships were seriously injured, one was blown up, and another was beaten almost to the point of losing its combat effectiveness.
When Qu Jianlei and the others arrived, a small nest sent out a loose white light towards the starship that had lost its combat effectiveness.
"It's dangerous there..." Zi Jiuxian couldn't help but exclaimed, "It feels like projection!"
The term "projection" comes from the information they just obtained. Star Nest can project star beasts to the target and then engage in close combat.
The most typical phenomenon during projection is this loose white light.
However, at this time, the fourth master still spoke coldly, "The focus of the attack is the small nest, and the sub-nests are also taken into consideration!"
They really wanted to save each other, but the star beast had already made a projection, and it was difficult for the next attack to be absolutely accurate.
The company-class ship was not only damaged, but its maneuverability was almost non-existent, with only a few firepower points still holding on.
The most important thing is that the protective shield is lost, and if one's attack is slightly biased, it will kill friendly forces!
Moreover, on the battlefield, local victory or defeat always gives way to the overall situation.
Okay, the Fourth Master admits that he has a bit of a double standard.
When they refused to carry the Star Nest, they believed that their own safety was the most important, but now they have to worry about the overall situation.
But he didn't think there was anything wrong - his family's combat power was so strong that of course he couldn't sacrifice himself for just any order.
They are not even from the Federation, so why should they bear such a huge price?
Moreover, their disobedience and escape were based on their own strength - if you have the ability, you should do the same.
The battlefield is not a place of tenderness - you can save your comrades who can be saved, but you can only send blessings to those who cannot be saved.
Big-headed Butterfly didn't understand what he meant for a moment, "Can we save those people?"
"He may be worried about accidental injury," Qu Jianlei communicated with it much faster than the Fourth Master. It was just a thought.
"But that's right, it's better to attack the enemy's vitality first... Well done!"
