"Commander Gloucester, we have not detected any opening of the black cavity channel, and the fleet stationed at the mouth of the ocean current has also not detected any abnormalities. These fleets seem to... appear out of thin air!"
After Gloucester's repeated questioning, someone finally spoke.
However, from Gloucester's point of view, saying it is the same as not saying it, and it has no meaning!
"Report!"
"explain!"
At this moment, an officer on the bridge suddenly stood up and reported.
"We received three reports here, which stated that the existence of the black cavity channel was observed, but after we tested the coordinates in the reports, we found nothing!"
"Um?"
This issue deserves further study.
The soldier said he saw it, but nothing was detected on his side.
So is it the soldier who lied, or is there something wrong with his equipment?
In this regard, Gloucester is more inclined to the second possibility. After all, this is not a fleet report, but a fleet report from three different super galaxy clusters. The possibility of lying at the same time is too small.
But if this is indeed the case, does it mean that the Federation has mastered the new black cavity channel technology, and that it is still undetectable by the Empire?
This could explain why almost all of the war zones were attacked by surprise attacks, but I had no idea where the enemies came from.
It's just...this is a bit difficult to handle!
"Order the reporting fleet to observe again and pass on the observed images!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Soon, in less than a minute, the three fleets from different theaters had already transmitted the observed real-time images, and when these images were opened on the bridge.
really...
In the picture is the black cavity passage!
"Let the technical team analyze these three coordinates again and see if they can find anything!"
"Yes, Commander!"
After the order was issued, Gloucester waited quietly, hoping that it was just a technical glitch rather than the Alliance mastering a new black hole technology.
But it is obvious that his expectations are destined to fail.
"Commander, the technical team used various detection methods, but they were unable to find that the black cavity channel was open at those three coordinates!"
"Notify the front line, leave behind the affiliated civilization fleet, and the imperial fleet quickly withdraws from the battlefield!"
"Commander, this..."
"Execute it immediately. If it's too late, even the imperial fleet will be destroyed there!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Gloucester didn't want to give such an order, but he had no choice.
Not to mention that the empire's regular fleet needs energy replenishment, the Sun Fleet is even more in need.
It can even be said that the Lieyang Fleet consumes more energy than the conventional fleet.
And the most important thing is that the black cavity armor is different from the shield. It consumes the black cavity particles to block attacks.
Therefore, after the black cavity particles in the armor are consumed too much, they must be pushed to the rear and refilled before they can be restored. This is something that even the Federation's black-armored battleships cannot avoid.
The only difference is that the Black Cavalry Armor of the Sun Fleet is only a prototype. Both in terms of strength and particle density, it is several dimensions inferior to that of the Black Armor Fleet.
If the Federation's black-armored battleships can withstand 10,000 standard attacks from super civilizations, then the Empire's Sun-class battleships can only withstand a thousand, not even a thousand.
Although the Lieyang Fleet stole the show in the previous battles, they also had to retreat to the rear to replenish particles for their armor after almost every high-intensity battle. Their ability to continue fighting was almost to the limit.
Therefore, if the Lieyang Fleet continues to stay on the front line, it may still be able to suppress the Alliance's fleet in a short period of time, but over time, it will inevitably be massacred by the Alliance.
As for the regular fleet of the empire, without the cooperation of the Lieyang Fleet and the morale of the military is in chaos, if they continue to fight the alliance, the consequences will not be much better.
The only way now is to withdraw the fleet first and stabilize the situation in the rear. Although the losses are heavy, at least there is still 20 to 30% of supplies, right?
Relying on these supplies, there is no problem in maintaining high-intensity fighting for another few months. As long as the battle situation stabilizes again, Gloucester can mobilize resources from surrounding affiliated civilizations to replenish this loss.
But if even these two to three percent are lost, then the entire imperial army will really have to be blamed here.
As a result, all affiliated civilization fleets were once again used as cannon fodder and left on the front line to buy time for the imperial fleet to evacuate.
"Commander Gloucester, the order has been issued!"
"Very good, send a message to the mainland to explain the situation and request support. At the same time, give orders to all affiliated civilizations adjacent to the war zone, asking them to take action immediately and send me supplies to the front line through the cosmic ocean currents!"
"Commander, the situation is critical now. Why don't we use the black cavity channel to allow these affiliated civilizations to transport supplies? If we use ocean currents, it will take a whole month!"
After Rogest gave the order, the adjutant on the side asked with some confusion.
"Don't you know that the Alliance has technology that can destroy our black cavity channel at any place?"
"In this current situation, if you were an alliance, after discovering that we opened the black cavity channel to connect to those affiliated civilizations, would you not take action?"
Gloucester looked at his adjutant with some disappointment, and then asked.
The reason is simple. Since the alliance's goal is to destroy its own logistics, it will never give itself the opportunity to build channels to transport supplies.
Yes, the empire does have a large amount of dark energy crystals in its hands, but they are on the mainland. The frontline currently only has a reserve of about a thousand yuan.
Therefore, if you really want to compete with the Alliance again on the consumption of dark energy crystals in reserves, that is what the locals do, not the front line.
This is why, in addition to asking the affiliated civilizations adjacent to each war zone to immediately transport supplies through ocean currents, Gloucester also reported the situation to the mainland and requested support from the mainland.
"Commander, I didn't think carefully!"
After realizing his mistake, the adjutant immediately said.
"Okay, you go make arrangements now. Except for the fighting area, I will arrange warships for monitoring in all other places in the rear. Since the alliance's new technology prevents us from detecting the opening of the black cavity channel, we can only use the latest
It’s a primitive method, relying directly on observation for monitoring!”
