Inside the bridge of the flagship USS Union traveling through hyperspace.
"The zero-point missile has been successfully detonated, and the target clearance rate is 100%!"
"The advance fleet begins to enter!"
"The space disruptor device is being launched!"
...
"What's going on with the Zerg in the outer circle?"
"Report to Commander, the outer circle has begun to gather towards the scheduled arrival point. There are at least 3,000 super bug swarms in size. Contact is expected to be made in 25 minutes!"
"Inform the advance fleet, don't wait for passive contact, take the initiative, and within an hour, you must create a 10au safe zone for me!"
"Yes, Commander!"
"Radar team, have you found the location of target No. 1?"
"No, Commander!"
"Keep looking and tell me if you find anything!"
"clear!"
When the advance fleet exited hyperspace, the entire bridge of the Union began to be busy, and various instructions continued to be issued from Lin Tian's mouth.
For now, there are generally no differences from what was planned, but there are still some problems.
For example, Alba's location cannot be found!
However, this is not a big problem. As Lin Tian said before, the main goal of this operation is to destroy those cocoons. As for the No. 1 target, it is only a secondary goal.
When Lin Tian's order was conveyed to the advance fleet, the entire fleet of millions of warships immediately took action.
The range cleared by a zero-point missile is about a distance of 5 astronomical units, which is a spherical area with a radius of 2.5 astronomical units.
Lin Tian's request is to create a safe zone with a diameter of 10au within an hour.
what does that mean?
This means that the advance fleet must not only defend the current area, but also need to move out to a range of at least 3au. After all, when the fleet attacks outwards, the Zerg are also pouring in. When the two sides come into contact, at the speed of the Zerg,
At least the distance is 0.5au.
There is another big problem here, that is, the number of warships is too small. It is extremely difficult for 1 million warships to control an area with a radius of 5au, so that each warship needs to take care of a large area.
After all, this is equivalent to the size of an array composed of one billion battleships.
Of course Lin Tian knows this, but he also has his own self-confidence, and this self-confidence comes from the Dreadnought Fleet, a fleet composed entirely of battleships equivalent to the mid-to-late stage seventh-level civilization!
The advance fleet received the order, without any hesitation, and spread out in a spherical shape with the ten-ship squadron as the basic unit!
This scene also fell into the eyes of a certain insect hiding in the passage of the insect nest.
Since the last attack by Li Cangqiong, Alba has been a little scared. After all, humans possess zero-point particle weapons, which is too threatening to him.
Not to mention that human beings' zero-point particle weapons can be transported into the insect swarm in an instant like space teleportation.
In addition, the space fault has been seen through by humans, so they simply hide in the insect nest passage and wait for the Royal Guards to break out of the cocoon.
It's no wonder that Lin Tian couldn't find Alba for a while!
Alba was a little strange at this moment. One was that the appearance of the human fleet this time was completely different from what he had encountered before. If it weren't for the Federation emblem on the outer shell of the ship, Alba would have almost thought it was another civilization.
The other is that there are too few battleships from humans this time, only about one million.
According to the strength displayed by the human fleet before, 1 million warships are absolutely unable to stop their endless swarm of insects.
Not to mention, this small fleet is not gathering together and using a dense battle formation to reduce the defensive surface, but is constantly spreading out, and there is a tendency to spread further.
This kind of operation is simply incomprehensible to Alba!
However, the next moment, Alba understood why the opponent did not choose a dense array but spread out.
Just when the advance fleet took action according to Lin Fan's order, it had already opened fire.
You must know that the range cleared by the Zero Point missile is only a radius of 2.5au, while the range of the secondary battery of the Dreadnought Fleet can reach more than 3au, and the main battery can reach a distance of 5au.
Therefore, all the gathering insect swarms are already within the firepower range of the advance team.
Since this is the case, of course it’s time to open fire, there’s nothing to hesitate about!
The biggest difference between the main battleships of the Dreadnought Fleet and the weapons used by the Federation's regular fleet is that since the sixth-level civilization has not yet fully mastered the research on space technology, it can only create weapons with a single function.
.
Such as space tearing, space piercing, space cutting, etc.!
But the main battleship of the Dreadnought Fleet is different. In the late stage of the seventh-level civilization, it has almost completely mastered space technology. The naval guns produced are no longer limited to a single space effect, but are called real space.
It is a general-purpose naval gun that can release different space attacks according to different battlefield environments, making the warship more adaptable to various battlefield environments.
Of course, this kind of weapon cannot be manufactured by the Federation. If he wants to exchange technology, Lin Fan has not reached the system level limit and can only purchase finished products, which are also quite expensive.
The 10 billion battleships currently equipped are already Lin Fan's current limit, and it is impossible to increase the number of fearless fleets in the short term.
After all, as long as you have the power to protect yourself, more points should be used to acquire technology and advance in civilization level.
The attack currently being released by the previous fleet is a technology called space collapse. This is also the attack with the largest range of damage that the warships of the Dreadnought Fleet can currently release.
Of course, the range is large, but the power is a bit small.
If the target uses a space shield and has relatively strong energy support, then it is absolutely no problem to withstand at least 3 or 5 hits.
However, where do these ordinary war insects have any space shields?
It's just an ordinary energy shield, which is only possessed by some of the relatively advanced war bugs.
In a corner of the void, a ten-ship squadron was advancing rapidly on one side, and at the same time, it was continuously carrying out over-the-horizon strikes of more than 2 AU forward on the other side. On the space radar, the insect sea composed of a large number of insect swarms seemed to be being constantly eaten.
generally.
For a while, there was no piece here, and for a while, there was no piece there!
There were only ten warships, but they completely suppressed most of the war insects that were the size of a super insect swarm.
Not only is it suppressed, but the insect swarm is also constantly retreating!
Of course, there is no such emotion of fear in the minds of the war bugs. It is not so much that the bug swarm is retreating, but it is because the Dreadnought-class battleships are annihilating the bugs so fast that it takes longer for the bugs behind to replenish them.
The speed at which the Zerg ahead is destroyed.
This created a sense that the insect swarm was continuously retreating.

Inside the insect nest passage.
Alba's six huge eyeballs were already widened to their maximum size.
Hell, even the Shengwei Empire's battleships are definitely not that powerful without using zero-point particle weapons!
