Barbarot's order quickly spread to the ears of all third-level civilizations within his jurisdiction.
On the main arm of the Orion Arm, no third-level civilization dared to disobey the orders of the Babavi Empire. The twelve civilizations in the area immediately took action, and a large number of legions headed for the nearby trade hub through the Star Road.
The strength of these third-level civilizations on the main arm is not comparable to those on the secondary arm. When it comes to the secondary arm of the Orion Arm, except for the Orr Republic, the others are not good.
Any one of these third-level civilizations can easily produce more than twenty legions, and some stronger third-level civilizations can even produce more than fifty legions.
In the end, the 12 third-level civilizations dispatched a total of 400 main corps and 600 local guard corps.
Since these civilizations themselves are under the orders of the Babavi Empire, most of their legions are arranged around trade hubs (to prevent interstellar pirates), so most of these mobilized legions can be reached within one Star Path voyage. The nearby trade hub is very easy to deploy and can be put in place in up to 2 years!
Some are so close that you can even arrive within half a year!
Barbarot himself also divided the three legions into nine fleets, each with 100,000 warships, and began to disperse to pursue and intercept them.
Both sides are level four civilized warships. No one is afraid of the other. One hundred thousand versus one hundred thousand. As long as you dare to fight any fleet, they can take a piece of flesh off you!
Until the deployment of the third-level civilization below is completed, plus the arrival of another seven local legions, the Leman Empire can be completely trapped!
This is Barbarot's current strategy, a two-pronged approach of passively filling the entire area with troops and active net-laying interception!
In addition, after the network was completed, Barbarot also issued orders to all trade hubs. Once the Leman Empire appeared, the garrison fleet would immediately jump away and go to other trade hubs.
After all, a few thousand battleships are powerful, right? Otherwise, 2,000 to 3,000 battleships would be killed each time. After dozens of trade hubs were taken down, the total loss would be one hundred thousand battleships, right?
You must know that in the past few months, not a single battleship of the Leman Empire has been killed. Instead, each trade hub has lost 2,000 to 3,000 battleships. The total loss so far has been less than 100,000 battle losses. It is simply... Deliver food.
Thus, a very interesting situation unfolded!
Whenever Lin Fan's fleet attacks any trade hub, the Babawi fleet that should be dispatched will immediately jump away.
Similarly, once Barbarot pursued Lin Fan's location, Lin Fan immediately jumped away.
Although Barbarot still had no way to deal with Lin Fan for the time being, Lin Fan was also very unhappy. After all, every previous attack could result in the loss of thousands of battleships.
Now, each attack can only destroy some star ports in the trade hub. As for the warships, there has been no results for a month.
Of course, Lin Fan also guessed the thoughts of the commander of the Babavi Empire, and understood that the other party must be gathering strength and preparing to reduce his attackable targets, and even ultimately make it impossible for him to attack any target safely.
After all, unlike the Federation, the combat power of the local warships and affiliated civilizations that the Babavi Empire can mobilize is so great that it can definitely fill all the trade hubs within hundreds of light years.
Even if those attached third-level civilizations don't have jump engines, according to Lin Fan's calculations, he can only make trouble at will for two years at most.
However, this is not what Lin Fan worries about in the first place. After all, Lin Fan is not here to fight a decisive battle with the Babavi Empire. It is purely to add fuel to the fire between the Vera Alliance and the Free Alliance, and by the way, the trade hub of Babavi
The network is only partially damaged.
Of course, in the end, it would be even better if another group of Babawi Empire's combat forces could be lured to Shanhaiguan for an encirclement and annihilation!
At the same time, the Human Federation, Tianyuan Four, and the Orion Arm Sub-Arm conquered the assembly point.
At this moment, 9.5 million warships have been gathered here. Although it is not enough to fill the entire star system, it still looks quite shocking.
After all, ever since the Human Federation stepped out of the earth and entered the interstellar world, it has never seen such a huge fleet gathering. Even the former enemies had a maximum of more than 3 million battleships gathered together.
But now, nearly tens of millions of warships are gathered under Liang Xingchen's command. How can Liang Xingchen not feel excited?
The only drawback is that among the 9.5 million warships, the Human Federation only has 720,000 warships, accounting for only 7.5% of the total number.
Although the human population has surged recently and has exceeded the 20 billion mark, this large number of newly added people are still only a few years old. It will take at least more than ten years to convert the increased population into actual combat power.
Then you can continue to convert.
For now, five legions is already the current limit of mankind. Coupled with some local guard fleets currently established by mankind, if more fleets are added, it will affect the development of mankind.
Two of them are in Shanhaiguan, so Liang Xingchen only has three in his hands.
It can also be seen from this that Lin Zhen's decision back then was quite correct. It is precisely because of the policy of subordinate civilization that human beings can organize large armies by relying on subordinate civilization even when their own strength is insufficient.
Especially with the development of time, within a few years, the affiliated civilization alone will definitely be able to organize a tens-of-million-level fourth-level combat force!
"Commander, the time has come!"
Bai Ling came to Liang Xingchen and reported to him.
"Well, let's go to the conference room!"
Bai Ling was Liang Xingchen's newly appointed adjutant two years ago. He was the proud son of the new generation of the Interstellar Military Academy. After graduation, he joined the Ares of the Second Federation Army as a staff officer. A year later, he was appointed adjutant by Liang Xingchen.
Now Lin Fan is 8,000 light-years away, so in the past five years, most of the favored sons of the new era have been accepted by Liang Xingchen!
When I walked into the conference room, three people were already sitting and waiting.
They are Jiang Hai, the commander of the third federal army, and Ivan, the commander of the fifth federal army (formerly the commander of the tenth fleet of the second army, who once shined in the campaign against the Serra Empire and died in the fifth army three years ago).
Promoted when the Legion was formed), Candice, commander of the Io Federation Starfleet.
"Commander Candice, long time no see. How is Queen Elfi?"
"Your Excellency Commander Liang Xingchen, Queen Elfi is not very good!"
Candice said with a look of dumbfounding!
"Huh? How do you say it?"
"The Queen said that after the expedition of the secondary arm of the Orion Arm is over, she wants to abdicate early. According to the Queen herself, it is because being the Queen is too boring and her temperament is not suitable!"
"Uh, okay! So the person who will take over as queen has been decided?"
"Well, Queen Elphie and the leaders of the twelve tribes agree that the throne should be passed on to the first male angel in the angel clan in thousands of years!"
