"How stupid to defend ten fronts at the same time!"
The fight lasted for ten days, but the path chosen by Moi United surprised everyone.
Instead of blocking part of the ocean currents and concentrating their forces to defend a few of the narrowest ocean current channels, as the Allied Forces Staff had speculated, they directly divided their forces into ten locations to defend all external channels at the same time.
According to the information from the front lines these days, no reserve fleet of the opponent's fleet has been detected behind any ocean current defense line, and the battleships on the defense line have lost one after the loss, and there is no reserve force to supplement them.
And the consumption in the past ten days has caused almost every line of defense to lose almost 10% of its combat power.
But if you think about it carefully, this is not surprising.
After all, it is defending ten lines of defense at the same time, plus the battleships lost in the previous battle of Mirsey. It is already very difficult for the Moi Alliance to gather the fleets on the defense line alone. The strength behind it... haha!
This made Bonifacio sneer...
"Commander Bonifacio, the latest battle situation on the front line, the Moi-led fleet has begun to retreat!"
"Oh? Originally, I thought they could be tough for at least a month, but they gave up after only ten days?"
While mocking, Bonifacio called up the tactical images from various places on the front line, but soon frowned.
It stands to reason that if you really want to retreat, you should concentrate your firepower to destroy all the coalition's hyperspace jamming devices like the Mirsay Super Galaxy Cluster, and then take the opportunity to use hyperspace navigation to evacuate, making it impossible for the coalition to pursue them in a short period of time.
.
But now, the opponent did not do this, but retreated while maintaining firepower.
"Inform the General Staff and analyze the motive behind Moi's move!"
"Yes, Commander Bonifacio!"
No matter how you look at it, there is something abnormal. Bonifacio decided to let the coalition staff analyze the reason for the other party's strange behavior and whether there is any conspiracy involved.
If this were replaced by Bonifacio before the Millsey fight, there would definitely not be so many worries.
But obviously, that battle left a lot of shadows in Bonifacio's heart, making him hesitate...
After receiving the order, the huge staff, composed of more than 200 civilized attack and more than 3,000 top tactical forecasters, immediately conducted various deductions based on the current situation.
final...
A conclusion emerges!
Because the gap in military strength between the two sides at Yangliukou is rapidly closing, and the Moi people have no reserve force to supplement.
Therefore, in order to maintain the advantage brought by the difference in strength, the Moi people gave up the confrontation at the mouth of the ocean current, and instead used space interference to retreat at sub-light speed while maintaining the exchange of fire.
The advantage of this is that if the coalition forces pursue them, the Moi people can always maintain an absolute superiority in sniping.
Take Haisei as an example. The number of warships remaining on the Moi defense line is about 280 billion, while the number of warships gathered by the coalition at the exit of the ocean current is about 40 billion. The gap between the two sides is about 7 times.
.
It is estimated that this gap will be evened out in more than 20 days, and then completely reversed.
But what would happen if the Moi gave up their ocean current defense line, chose to retreat at sub-light speed like they did now, and maintained a firefight with the pursuing fleet?
In order not to be affected by the time dilation effect, even the most advanced civilization can only maintain sublight speed at 20%.
In other words, after the Moi people wiped out the more than 40 billion warships they were chasing, the fleet arriving from the rear of the coalition forces would never be able to catch up with the Moi people's retreating fleet.
After all, everyone has the same speed. As long as you are outside the range, you will always be outside the range.
In this way, the Moi people have taken the initiative and can completely reduce their speed, wait for the fleet behind them to come up, and then accelerate to 20% of the speed of light and engage them.
As long as they control it well, the Moi people can even engage in firefights with the coalition forces with a hundred times the strength difference forever, unless the coalition forces give up the pursuit!
"Commander Bonifacio, should we give up the pursuit?"
"No, let the fleet continue to pursue!"
"But the losses to the coalition forces will be huge, right..."
"You have forgotten one thing, Moi United's mysterious weapon!"
Shaking his head, Bonifacio said.
The commanders of other civilizations also changed their expressions when they heard this. After all, the White Tiger Empire had shared this information with all the civilizations in the coalition before.
only...
The battles over the past few days had gradually made them forget this point, until Bonifacio brought it up again at this moment.
"So, we still have to pursue. As long as we bite the opponent's fleet, the Moi people will not dare to use that weapon unless they are preparing to kill their own fleet as well!"
"So that's it..."
Everyone nodded and accepted this statement.
Indeed, if the Moi people use that mysterious weapon in this situation, it will cause huge casualties to the coalition forces, but at the same time, their own fleet will also join in.
Therefore, sending a part of the fleet to pursue and bite the Moi fleet is the most appropriate combat plan.
"Of course, we cannot always gather fleets at the mouths of ocean currents. While we are seizing the Moi fleet, other fleets in our theaters that have gathered at the mouths of ocean currents must immediately begin to break the opponent's hyperspace interference and disperse in all directions.
"
"Only when the fleet is completely dispersed can the huge threat posed by the opponent's mysterious weapon be truly eliminated. Otherwise, if the opponent gets impatient and really launches a strike, destroying them together with their own fleet, it is not impossible.
thing!"
After pondering for a moment, Bonifacio decided to add another layer of insurance and then spoke.
This proposal makes no sense to everyone. Maybe the terminal bomb has a large damage range, but the number held by the opponent is definitely not large. Otherwise, Mirsey would not be able to bear it until the end.
use.
Based on this analysis, it is natural that the wider the fleet is spread out, the smaller the threat it will be.
------
At the same time, there is a virtual joint command center between humans and Moi people.
"It seems that everything is going according to plan, but Mr. Lin Fan, I have never understood that if it is just to kill more coalition fleets, then there is no need to use the sub-light speed retreat as a bait, just use
The hyperspace jamming device will contain the opponent for a period of time, and you can wait until the fleet they gather reaches a certain number!"
After looking at the battle situation on the front line, Larnas asked.
This was something he had never understood. He always felt that Lin Fan's move of letting the fleet act as bait was a bit redundant.
"If you were the commander of the other side and knew that we had a terminal bomb, how would you judge when you saw that all the defenders had evacuated and the area around the ocean current mouth was shrouded in hyperspace interference?"
"Would you...think that this is a preparation to use the terminal bomb and clear the area early?"
"Yes, then if you find out that my fleet is only retreating at sub-light speed, and you have the opportunity to bite my fleet, how will you judge?"
"this..."
Larnas suddenly woke up.
Needless to say?
If I can bite your fleet hard, I will naturally continue to move the fleet with confidence and boldness...
