Searles was in a panic at this moment. Ever since more than a day ago, a fleet of an unknown civilization suddenly entered his territory.
Like the Blue Yao Republic, 80% of the main fleets in the Terra Empire have joined the combined fleet for the expedition. Now there are only a small number of main fleets left in the civilization and the administrative district guard fleets, which are large in number but do not have much combat effectiveness.
In just over a day, the Terra Empire had already lost two large star systems and more than a dozen military towns with fleets stationed there.
Especially those guard fleets, even though their combat effectiveness was poor, they surrendered without even fighting. This made Searles very angry.
But what's the use of being angry again?
They are less than 300,000 light-years away from the galaxy where their imperial capital circle is located. Well, according to the previous advancement speed, the opponent will enter the imperial capital circle where they are located in a day at most.
This made Searles panic.
However, amidst this panic, there is also a hint of hope.
Also a day ago, Lavoisier contacted him.
Although Searles was very angry with the guy who turned against him on the battlefield and caused the entire fleet of his main fleet to be destroyed, after hearing the first words Lavoisier said, he gave up his original intention of scolding him and cut it off after a few words.
The idea of communication.
"I can help you deal with that fleet!"
Searles couldn't pretend he hadn't heard these words. No matter how much he resented Lavoisier, he had no choice but to put aside his hatred temporarily when his empire was on the verge of survival.
------
Time returns to the present.
More than 1 million light-years away from the Imperial Capital of the Terra Empire, five attack groups from the Federation are quietly staying here.
"Commander Alfie, according to the Terra Empire's previous intelligence, after the other party captured Walra Castle, they headed for the Koszechen outpost. They are expected to arrive in half an hour at most, but..."
"Just what?"
At this moment, Lavoisier did not stay in his fleet, but boarded the Ser and set off with Elphie.
After all, the fleet of the Lanyao Republic has to be responsible for the established evacuation plan. Every additional spaceship can evacuate a group of people, right?
As the initiator of the entire battle, Lavoisier must follow Elphie to the battlefield.
Although everything has been deployed according to the plan, and the rest is waiting for the opponent's fleet to fall into place, but in any case, this part of the plan was modified by the Federation, and at the same time, the most important thing in the entire battle was modified.
part of.
Lavoisier still had some doubts about this.
"Just what?"
"Is this terminal bomb really that powerful?"
Yes, this is what Lavoisier was worried about too.
He didn't know what the terminal bomb was. Alfie simply told him that it was a weapon that could kill all enemies in a wide area without destroying the planet.
He had never heard of this kind of weapon, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
After all, no matter which commander he is, there is a huge risk when he uses weapons that he does not understand to formulate a combat plan.
"Don't worry, this terminal bomb is enough to cover the entire Koszeqin!"
Yes, according to the plan, after Lavoisier got in touch with Emperor Searles of the Terra Empire, he deployed a terminal bomb in the Koszechen outpost in advance, and the Terra Empire except for leaving some unknowing people behind.
In addition to the cannon fodder fleet, the main fleet has also completed its evacuation long ago.
Lavoisier was noncommittal. Only half an hour later, when the final bomb detonated, would we know whether it was as powerful as Elfie said!
In short, before the final result is obtained, Lavoisier's doubts may not be eliminated.
Half an hour later.
When a large number of hyperspace windows appeared in the images transmitted back from the monitoring device deployed by the Federation in Kesseqin, everyone on the bridge perked up and stared at the images in the images.
"Reporting to the commander, a large number of warships have been detected arriving at Koszeqin through hyperspace, the number is 50 billion!"
"At the same time, based on the appearance characteristics of its warships, it can be preliminarily determined that it belongs to the same civilization as the fleet that attacked Lanyao Republic!"
The adjutant looked at the data flashing in front of him and reported to Alfie.
Listening to the report that was consistent with the pre-war predictions, Alfie nodded.
But, it’s not time to take action yet!
Although the terminal bomb has long been deployed there, its detonation range is not unlimited.
Elphie's elf fleet carries a total of five standard terminal bombs, which are the same as the one dropped by the Federation against the Zerg Alia. The range that can be affected after detonation is about one million light-years in radius.
area.
And how huge will 50 billion warships be when spread out?
It is also expected to be within a range of millions of light years. After all, it is impossible for 50 billion warships to all be close together during combat.
Therefore, Alfie still has to wait for the opponent's fleet to enter the killing circle of the terminal bomb as much as possible in order to maximize the effect.
Likewise, Lavoisier stared intently at the image in front of him.
In order to be realistic enough, Lavoisier persuaded Searles to withdraw only the main fleet, while all the 30 billion guard fleets were kept as cannon fodder.
Originally, it was impossible for Searles to agree to this request.
However, in the previous day, Searles had seen the guard fleet's attitude of surrendering to the wind too many times, as if it was welcoming the king's master.
This made him very angry.
Rather than waiting for these guys to lead the way, it would be better to let them play some value. Therefore, Searles agreed to Lavoisier's extremely excessive request.
Just from looking at the images, you can see how useless these guard fleets are.
After seeing the arrival of the Sarna fleet, everything was in chaos instantly. Even the basic defensive formation was not arranged, as if the entire command system had failed.
The next moment, less than a minute later, when Sarna led the fleet into range and was about to order the fleet to attack...
The various guard fleets stationed here in the Terra Empire have all shut down the propulsion and weapon systems of the warships, and issued surrender signals.
Everyone in the Federation fleet who was looking at the surveillance screen was stunned for a while.
Is this... really a fleet of an eighth-level technological civilization?
Even if it’s just a second-rate guard fleet, it’s not like that, right?
this...
Simply...
Is the leading party in the interstellar era good?
After seeing the opponent surrender, Sarna did not continue to order the fleet to attack and kill the opponent completely, as he had done before.
After all, Arnault's order was there to obtain as much intelligence as possible.
Who knows, after taking action, did he really kill an officer who knew top-secret information?
Well, the other side has surrendered anyway. Just like the previous military towns, we first check to see if there are any officers with intelligence, and then...
In short, Sarna doesn't have any prisoners in her hands so far, so what will she do next...
