Chapter 1622 When will the invasion occur? (Second update)
Chapter 1552 When will the invasion occur? (Second update)
The defenses on Keqi Planet are not as strict as usual. There are twenty-five large and small space fortresses alone.
These twenty-five fortresses may be strong or weak, and the five core fortresses are the ones that can withstand the attack of division-level ships.
Kochi is not a fortress-level habitable planet, otherwise a stronger fortress could be built.
However, these twenty-five fortresses would be basically impossible to capture without seven or eight divisions.
In fact, the canopy and battle fortress of Kochi are only part of the firepower.
In addition, there are space-based weapons operating in satellite orbits, powerful ground fortresses, and corresponding starship fleets.
These many factors cooperate with each other to create a powerful canopy system, and no one piece is missing.
However, some people still have doubts, "Battlestar... won't be digitally invaded, right?"
The essence of the Battlestar is a more powerful starship with stronger defense, but it sacrifices mobility flexibility.
What you lose is what you gain. After becoming a near-Earth base for a habitable star, Fortress will just be responsible for looking after the home, and there is no need to wander around in space.
However, even so, the fortress still needs a powerful control system, otherwise it will not be able to exert its power.
So the question becomes, is Battlestar afraid of artificial intelligence?
However, others have already considered this problem, "Battle Fortress is prepared for the end of the planet, and the chip performance is not strong."
Military products focus on being strong and resistant to grass. The Battle Fortress is originally rough-skinned and thick-bodied, and is prepared for the worst environments.
"Even if you encounter extreme cosmic rays and the chip is completely destroyed, you can still operate most of the fortress' weapons manually!"
So don't really worry about the flaws of Battlestar, its power is also incomparable.
However, it is very unfortunate that the evil empire's warships obviously also considered the existence of the battle fortress.
"They are only outside the gunfire range of the Battlestar!" someone said through gritted teeth.
However, some people didn't care and just said lightly, "This is common sense. Who would ignore the battle fortress in space?"
"Since they are afraid, we can definitely use the deterrence of the space fortress to stabilize our position."
"Can't we retreat and trick them into going deeper?"
"How stupid does the other party have to be to fall for such a superficial plan?"
In any case, the alliance's front line is maintained at 5 million kilometers.
The other fleets of the alliance took off from other directions, hoping to outflank the opponent.
However, not long after, bad news came. The invaders were flanked by a large number of fleet escorts.
What's worse is that the alliance military is not sure how powerful the attacking fleet is.
Could what they have discovered so far be just the vanguard?
If it is too strong, the Kochi Military District must seriously consider a response plan.
At the beginning, the alliance did not believe that the imperial fleet would attack in a large scale.
Because a massive attack on Kochi is a very bad option from a strategic point of view.
Even though they are playing very passively now, if they really want to push to the ground and defend, it will not be that difficult to attack.
Therefore, it is more reasonable for the Digital Phantom to lead a small-scale sneak attack and leave after achieving a certain combat purpose.
As for the purpose of the small-scale sneak attack, it's hard to say. Maybe it was to create panic, maybe it was to squeeze the alliance's space.
But now, the number of raiding teams that can be observed exceeds a division-level formation, which is not in line with the scale of the raid.
Therefore, the alliance military cannot help but wonder whether its own judgment is wrong?
Considering that the other party has the help of Digital Phantom, maybe we can hope to... take down Kochi Star at a relatively small cost?
This guess is really ridiculous, but when it comes to digital ghosts, anything can happen.
So far, the Alliance military is not sure what unknown capabilities the Digital Phantom has.
This kind of fear of the unknown, to be honest, is a very annoying mentality and makes people even more troublesome.
Just like not long ago, the Digital Phantom led a team to clear the blockade area, but the fleet responsible for the blockade was unable to do anything to them.
The Alliance has designed many targeted response plans to the combat characteristics of Digital Phantoms.
However, these solutions are not very mature - they have certain effects, but they do not completely solve the problem.
In any case, the main force in the center must withstand it, and the fleets on the flanks cannot be ignored.
Just as the Alliance warships were taking off, continuous firestorms suddenly appeared on the planet Kochi.
"So, are you really here?" The military commander had a sneer on his lips.
The serial firestorm incidents that occurred in Tianyu are no secret among the Alliance military.
They thought about the possibility of the other party repeating the same trick, but unfortunately, Keqi was not Tianyu.
At this moment, the planet has entered a state of martial law, which is implemented quickly and thoroughly. There is no need to think about causing chaos.
He was not afraid of the other party making moves, but he was afraid that there would be no movement at all. That was the most painful thing. "Leave it to the ground!"
However, the firestorm suddenly broke out, and the imperial fleet that was currently fighting suddenly had hundreds more warships.
??????55.??????
Most of these battleships are small ships, but there are also company-level and battalion-level ships, and even two regiment-level ships.
Moreover, most of these warships were of imperial type, and they rushed over like crazy.
"That's it?" The alliance commander smiled coldly again, this little pressure was really not enough for him.
But the next moment, he saw the painted logo of the Digital Phantom on a regiment-level ship.
"Fall back," the commander said decisively, "Want to respond? Haha, we don't need to take risks."
So far, everything is still under control, as long as he commands the fleet and retreats to a place where the battle fortress can protect it.
The current focus must be to suppress possible riots on the planet.
In a battle in space, it doesn't matter if you give in temporarily. No matter how high the pressure is, the near-earth defense will always have the absolute advantage.
However, at this moment, new news came. From the two wings of the imperial fleet attacking the planet, two division-class ships suddenly appeared!
What's terrible is that these two division-class ships have digital phantoms painted on their hulls!
This news shocked the alliance commander: Digital Phantom actually has two division-level ships... and they all arrived?
The problem instantly became serious: What exactly is the empire's fleet doing here?
If we attack by force, two division-class ships are really not a big problem, but the painted markings of the Digital Phantom... are not a good thing!
This team is just a civilian force, and having two division-class ships is already out of line. This strange phenomenon only occurs in the empire.
So, what are they going to do with such a big bet on Kochi?
The commander subconsciously wants to recruit more warships to participate in the battle. Our own fleet is now in space and there is no shortage of fleets!
But in the end, he decided to remain unchanged in response to all changes. The most taboo thing on the battlefield is to give random orders.
No matter what happens, there is no big problem with the current arrangement. In order to test out the opponent's purpose, there is no harm in sacrificing some officers and soldiers.
It sounds a bit cruel, but this is war.
Anyway, with the support of space fortresses and ground artillery, no matter how bad the space battle is, it won't be much worse.
That's what he thought, but when the Alliance soldiers heard that two Digital Phantom division-class ships had appeared, they couldn't help but panic.
Compared with Kochi's defense, two division-class ships are really not enough to look at, but... this is a digital phantom.
The soldiers were still carrying out the orders faithfully, but it was normal for them to mutter a few words in private.
What's even worse is that in addition to the soldiers in space, all officers and soldiers on the ground know the news.
Even some ordinary people, curious about the war in space, turned on their space observers and discovered this situation.
Within a few minutes, most people's attention was highly focused on space.
It doesn't matter if you say this, the most important thing is to pay more attention - under military control, it won't cause much trouble.
But in fact, the increasing attention has caused many people to ignore the situation on the planet.
——They can also think that there may be trouble on the planet, but they just can't help but pay attention to the space war.
After a few more minutes, the imperial fleet's attack became more and more fierce, and it seemed that it was getting anxious.
But then, there were continuous firestorms in space.
"Oops!" The commander's face turned pale instantly, "It's the power and fire control system of the battlestar!"
Although Battlestar moves slowly, it can still move. If the speed increase time is long enough, the final speed will not be too slow.
Therefore, the fortress has a power system and a relatively independent fire control system.
But what’s more confusing is that both systems can self-fire, and this is the original intention of the design and has nothing to do with the digital phantom.
The power system is on fire to prevent the enemy from snatching the space fortress, and more importantly, to prevent someone from using the fortress to crash into the habitable star.
The impact of a fortress on a planet would be more disastrous than a warship. Defensive weapons cannot become a hidden danger to the security of the planet.
The fire control system fires automatically to prevent someone from seizing the fortress and doing some heinous acts.
These things have not happened before. Powerful weapons must be controlled.
But suddenly, all these self-destruct devices were activated, which really caught the Alliance military off guard.
After the Alliance learned that the Digital Phantom was coming, it required the Battlestar to install a manual self-destruct device.
But remote control self-destruction... is still an option, so it has not been banned.
Anyway, Battlestar is built to be solid and reliable. Even if the firepower system self-destructs, it can still be operated manually with a little repair.
But the efficiency of manual operation is a bit touching!
After discovering this change, the alliance commander said nothing, "Continue to retreat!"
The Battlestar is already a bit unreliable, its aiming and firing speed is too slow, and its combat power has been reduced to nine out of ten.
So it is better to retreat further. The space-based weapons and ground weapons in orbit can still be used.
But at this moment, he was really wondering: Is this kind of harassment useful?
But then, his expression changed again, "When did they invade the Battle Fortress?"
