"In this battle, we must make the Qien Empire regret for destroying the Federation's colonial ship!"
Admiral Shestakov, who was sitting in the command center of the United Stars, stared at his own movement track on the star map, with a blazing fire representing revenge in his eyes.
"What the commander said is absolutely true, blood debt must be paid with blood."
From the other end of the holographic image came Vice Admiral James Drake's low and plain voice, and the murderous intent hidden in it made the other two people in the image nod.
These two generals who also wear the rank of lieutenant general are none other than the fleet commanders of the Phoenix Assault Fleet and the Hydra Assault Fleet. The female general who commands the Phoenix Fleet is named McNevin Howell, while the general of the Hydra Fleet is male named Ignaz Albion.
At this time, it can be seen from the frequent appearance of women among senior generals of the Federation of People's Federation that as a military empire with a small population and requiring all citizens to serve, the proportion of women in the Federation Army is much higher than that of other empires. From low-level soldiers to high-level generals, the heroic figures of women can be seen everywhere.
But this is not the result of the whim of Grand Marshal Beauclair, but because the Human Federation relies on a large number of frozen embryos and clones to increase the population, making everyone's social status relatively equal. The education they received, the living conditions and the resources allocated to each of them by the federal government were similar, or even exactly the same.
Highly militarized education and life have created countless women who are more determined than men. Whether it is their hard-working spirit or their will to fight for mankind to the end, they will not lose to any men who accept militarized management with them. The Federation's excellent genetic engineering ensures that they will not be treated unfairly due to their inherent physical disadvantages.
Although the Human Federation is relatively deficient in the use of machinery, it is undeniable that Federation scientists have their own unique insights into genetic engineering. Even though the Federation itself has never admitted it, the outside world has always believed that the Federation has passed through aliens. A large number of experiments on slaves and death row prisoners have mastered the relatively crude gene tailoring technology (Gene Tailoring).
In the world of stars with extremely advanced technology, genes are no longer a forbidden area that cannot be explored. On the contrary, except for a few idealistic empires and prosthetic empires that are not interested in transforming themselves, promoting the evolution of higher intelligent life through genetic tailoring and gland modification has always been a technology that all major civilized empires are flocking to, and the Human Federation is one of the few in this regard. Many leaders.
Yang Tianyi is also convinced of this, because some smugglers who have a cooperative relationship with the Qunxing Group will disclose some information about transaction partners to Garno from time to time, including some information about Renlian Gene Technology.
For example, legends about extreme environmental planets specially designed to cultivate super soldiers and terrifying genetic monsters created using morphogenesis are already frequent visitors to the group's intelligence department.
Yang Tianyi is not a person who likes to listen to rumors, but he firmly believes that rumors will not appear without reason. If only one or two people say this, then it may be just a small trick for them to collude to defraud the group's benefits, but if almost all the people who trade intelligence with the group Intelligence dealers and smugglers have mentioned these points, so the authenticity of these information is quite high.
Just like the high-credibility intelligence that the federal intelligence agencies have worked hard to piece together, without their hard work, even Shestakov, known as the "Spear of the Human Federation", would not dare to rashly execute his mission. It seems they all have some risky plans.
Imperial Sunfire examined the commander of the fleet, and Royal Navy Advisor Sirigosa guessed right. Shestakov did not let any assault fleet withdraw from the battlefield. On the contrary, he also ordered the three fleets to continuously send small forces to patrol around and harass the enemy's space stations, in order to expose some of the traces of his own fleet and attract the enemy's attention without alerting the enemy.
Judging from the current action trajectory of the enemy fleet, the opponent's commander has obviously fallen into a trap that he has carefully constructed for him and cannot extricate himself.
But Shestakov understood that this was not because the Viscount of the Siligosa Empire was unwise. If he had 20 to 30% more battleships than the enemy, he would not hesitate to attack with his entire army. At most It's just that there are differences in some tactical details.
According to Gu Wei's reliable information from the intelligence department, the Qien Empire was ordered to kill three of its own assault fleets this time. They were one squadron of the inner ring royal fleet and two outer fleets that had been withdrawn from the supply line. Ring convoy.
The strength of the two outer ring fleets is not far different from that of our own Kraken and Hydra fleets. They are evenly matched. The only problem is the Sunfire Survey Squadron with many battleships. Fortunately, I am They were fully prepared for this battle, so they were not afraid of the frighteningly thick armor of the Imperial battleships.
"If nothing else, the final battlefield will be the Zorn galaxy."
Shestakov stood in the center of the giant command room, glanced around at the officers and soldiers coming and going, and finally focused on the star map projection surrounding him and thousands of light years away from him. Sirigosa made the same judgment.
But unlike Siligosa's confidence based on the strength of the fleet, Shestakov knew that even the Phoenix Fleet, the strongest of the three assault fleets, could not compete with Yang Yan Review, so the federal navy did not have an advantage in this battle. .
His confidence comes from the fact that the Zorn galaxy is not a decisive battlefield that arises naturally due to the situation, but is the final battlefield that he and the command team selected from the beginning.
The difference between the two is that the former's human fleet can only rely on the relatively excellent crew quality and not dominant warship performance to compete with the imperial warships, while the latter can allow naval officers to prepare according to plans prepared in advance. and action plans.
Just like you have rehearsed before the performance, the final result will naturally be much better than an unprepared hasty response.
Moreover, if the decisive battlefield deviates from the command's expectations, Shestakov is not optimistic about the outcome of this battle, because regardless of winning or losing, the fleet, which is the bargaining chip and cornerstone of the balance, will suffer heavy losses.
Even if the naval fleet won the battle with hard training and excellent quality, the Federation that lost more than a certain number would only achieve a tactical victory, but strategically it would be a complete defeat.
The Qien Empire is much larger than the Federation. If it cannot annihilate the enemy cleanly and at a relatively small cost, then the empire that has come to its senses and realizes that the Federation is not invincible will inevitably increase the balance of the war. , by then they will be almost exhausted financially and will no longer be able to engage in a second round of arms race with the empire.
Trading a major defeat in an all-out war for a small victory on a local battlefield was an absolutely unacceptable result for the wily General Shestakov.
Therefore, if there is a deviation in the plan, for example, the Qiong Empire invests more power, the enemy commander is too stupid or too smart to step into the trap, or steps into the trap, but does not choose Zorn like him The galaxy serves as the battlefield for the decisive battle.
The admiral will not hesitate to immediately order all fleets to take advantage of the opponent's encirclement network is not too tight, immediately break out from the preset route at all costs, and must not engage in firefights with any enemy fleets on the way to avoid being slowed down. Leading to the annihilation of the entire army.
Fortunately, according to the current situation, the situation is just as he imagined. The other party's commander did not realize that he was stepping into a carefully woven network. The location of the hunter and the hunter will also be in the Zorn galaxy. A change occurred that most people did not expect.
Because the Federation Navy has made complete preparations in the Zorn galaxy that was selected in advance, a "gluttonous feast" specially tailored for the Qien Empire warships.
