The situation of the war is changing rapidly.
The Dynasty fought vigorously in the vertical line, but in the N77 star field, Su Jian, who was originally at a disadvantage, suddenly launched a campaign called "Harvest", abandoned many important places, and concentrated the main force of the fleet to siege the Moon Wheel Legion's prominence. vanguard troops.
This move was indeed unexpected by the federal army and caused instant chaos. Some troops were eager to seize key points of the base, while others moved closer to the Moon Vanguard Fleet and actively rescued them. Exactly three hours later, the Federation issued a unified order to fully rescue the Moon Vanguard Fleet. The various troops that went to seize key points reluctantly turned around and went to the rescue. But this whole day has passed, and the situation of the Yuelun vanguard troops has become quite bad.
This was Su Jian's cleverness. The federal troops in the N77 theater belonged to six different forces. Although they claimed to be under unified command, in actual combat it was inevitable that they would be suspicious of each other and undermine each other. Su Jian released more than a dozen important base targets in one go. Whoever takes them will get the military glory. What's the point of saving Yuelun?
Sure enough, until the fleet battle began, the federal theater headquarters was still quarreling for several hours before this order was issued.
Su Jian just wanted these few hours. Within a few hours, more than half of the main squadron of the 4th Fleet had jumped into position and appeared on the battlefield. At the same time, the fleet also continued to fire space concussion bombs, interfering with space jumps. The federal rescue fleet could only come out from farther jump points, and it took more time to reach the battlefield.
However, war is always full of variables. As soon as the battle began, Su Jian suddenly discovered that the Yuelun fleet was extremely powerful. The decoy fleet he had released actually showed signs of collapse under the fierce attack of the opponent. In shock, Su Jian did not bother to assemble the fleet for a general attack, and directly threw his two squadrons into the battlefield, forming a 1.5:1 advantage over Yuelun in combat power. However, the combat power was only on paper. The performance of the two squadrons put into the battlefield was far inferior to the elite troops used as bait. The Moon Vanguard Fleet fought extremely fiercely. Many starships were clearly on the verge of explosion, but They just fight to the death and refuse to retreat, and some even simply run into their opponents!
This is deep space, not the sea with little room for maneuver. Of course, the collision was unsuccessful, but the formation of the 4th Fleet was successfully disrupted. Several starships were clearly not on the collision route, but the commander did not know that he was confused. Still frightened, he actually turned around to evade, and the entire attack formation instantly became scattered.
Su Jian's face turned livid with anger, and he issued several extremely tough orders before finally scolding the starships back to their original positions. The 4th Fleet has been stationed on the second line all year round. The fleet is filled with people of all sizes and with various connections. These people are usually obedient, but at critical moments, when it comes to life and death, their true colors are revealed and they don't pay much attention to Su Jian. order.
Su Jian knew this very well, but he still had no good solution.
Cowardice is the enemy of war. The 4th Fleet clearly has superior strength, but its losses are higher than its opponents. It's just that the 4th Fleet has more starships, and even if they try to lose the Moon Vanguard Corps, they can't fight it. At this moment, Su Jian had been worried that the Yuelun vanguard force would find a way to retreat. It was not until another squadron arrived on the battlefield that Su Jian finally let go of his uneasy heart. He immediately deployed the newly arrived squadron to circle behind the Moon Fleet, cutting off the opponent's retreat.
After doing this, Su Jian had a new worry: Why didn't the Yuelun Vanguard Fleet escape?
The answer is obvious, at least Su Jian thinks he has found the answer, that is, Yuelun's vanguard fleet is also a decoy. The Federation wants to drag his 4th Fleet to death here, and then use its main force to come and fight him. Su Jian had always tried his best to avoid a fleet decisive battle. He knew very well that his ultimate strategic goal in the war zone was to successfully defend.
It's just that this time the opportunity lies in Su Jian's hands. Su Jian looked at the squadrons approaching one after another on the star map, and finally smiled. The Federation had been waffling for three hours. These extra three hours were extremely important. Moreover, the Federation obviously didn’t know that he had almost abandoned all the fortresses and bases on the front. If he had known, he would not have allowed the Moon Vanguard Fleet to stay. Die.
Su Jian remained calm and sent another squadron that had just arrived into the battlefield. He once again confirmed the movements of the Federation fleet. The scanning results showed that no new large-scale space jump fluctuations had occurred in the past few hours, and the nearby jump points were under comprehensive interference and were no longer usable.
In other words, the Federation has no new actions, and the squadrons that have jumped over after the war are all under control. It will be at least a day before they can reach the battlefield. Don't worry about the previous space jump signals. They are all quite far away from here. Unless you jump out, you will keep flying towards the battlefield. But Su Jian's operation had not yet begun. How could the Federation know that this place would become a battlefield?
24 hours is enough. Su Jian doesn't even need that much time. As long as he has 20 hours, 20 hours at most, he can crush and swallow the Moon Vanguard Fleet!
As another squadron entered the battlefield, Yuelun's vanguard fleet seemed to have known its fate, and the battle became more fierce and crazy. Starships one after another are firing at each other with the attitude of dying together. Even if they are dying, they will bite off a piece of flesh from the 4th Fleet.
The final victory was coming, but the smile on Su Jian's face gradually disappeared. The battle has been going on so far, and the Moon Vanguard Fleet knows that it cannot escape, but not a single starship has surrendered! This was completely different from Su Jian's expectation. Under normal circumstances, the Yuelun vanguard troops should surrender when they knew there was no hope of escape. In that case, the losses of the 4th Fleet would be much smaller.
And now, in order to eat up the Yuelun Vanguard Fleet, Su Jian has already paid the price of three heavy cruisers! The opponent only had 5 heavy cruisers in total, and most of the time Su Jian used more than 10 heavy cruisers to besiege him, and reinforcements continued to enter the battlefield. This kind of battle loss has greatly dimmed the victory, and even dimmed the aura of the famous general that Su Jian dreamed of.
Looking at the few Yuelun starships that were still struggling to resist, Su Jian's face was gloomy, and infinite hatred suddenly surged in his heart. He pointed at the floating light spots on the star map and said, "Sweep them all. !”
The staff officer next to him was startled and said: "General, those are life capsules..."
"Of course I know! Why are we leaving them to come back to the battlefield to fight against me? Or should we let them tell the enemy our next move?"
The staff officer was submissive and did not dare to speak. However, attacking the life capsule is a taboo in starship warfare. Once verified, a military court will be filed after the war.
Su Jian glanced at him, his eyes filled with coldness, and said coldly: "Why, do you want me to personally give this order?"
The staff officer's whole body trembled, and he immediately understood Su Jian's intention. There was sweat on his forehead, he weighed it repeatedly in his mind, and finally gritted his teeth and left the command cabin. After a while, several 4th Fleet destroyers suddenly stopped attacking, retreated to the second-line area, and then began to use secondary guns and space missiles to shoot at the life capsules floating in space one by one.
The public channel in front of Su Jian suddenly lit up, showing that it was the command of the Moon Vanguard Fleet. Su Jian reached out a little and connected the communication. A strong man with a bloody gauze wrapped around his forehead appeared in front of him. His eyes were red and round, and his teeth were clenching.
Su Jian remained calm and said, "Are you ready to surrender?"
"dream!!"
Su Jiandao: "As long as you are willing to surrender, I will stop attacking."
Commander Yuelun gave a long laugh and said: "You can even attack the rescue cabin. I would rather believe a bitch than you! Stop talking nonsense, I and my people will fight to the end. ! General Phil will get everything back for us today!"
Su Jian looked calm and said, "Then I'll wait."
Commander Yuelun finally said: "Su, in the words of your dynasty, people like you will continue to have no descendants, which is unacceptable in heaven!"
The communication channel was cut off.
There are still 4 out of the 22 starships in the Moon Vanguard Fleet, which are making their final struggle under the siege of hundreds of starships. Their counterattacks are still accurate and sharp, but inevitably a little weaker.
Sparks ignited in the space from time to time, which were the fires when the rescue capsules were hit and exploded. Desperate screams, vicious curses and angry roars echoed in the deep space, but these sounds could only float in the form of radio waves and then disappear.
The last starship of the Moon Wheel Vanguard finally lost its power and floated quietly in space. Space torpedoes continued to bombard it one after another like a swarm of bloody sharks.
The staff officer returned to the command cabin and said to Su Jian: "General, the mission has been completed." His voice was a little low.
Su Jian said calmly: "Clean it up."
The staff officer nodded, turned around and left the command cabin. Su Jian clicked on the command platform, and the flagship began to scan the entire battlefield. He scanned it three times before he was satisfied.
The 4th Fleet finally began to regroup, and the final battleship as the flagship fired two slow space torpedoes. A few minutes later, two groups of extremely hot lights lit up in the center of the original battlefield. The light and heat exceeding that of stars swept across the entire battlefield. Many small pieces of debris melted directly in the strong particle storm, transforming into groups of basically Metal or some other unnamed thing.
After doing this, the 4th Fleet began to accelerate, leaving the battlefield and the space interference zone created by itself.
Two hours later, a federal high-speed starship appeared at the edge of the battlefield. It slowed down with all its strength and circled the outer edge of the battlefield three times before stopping.
An admiral suddenly stood in the command module of the starship. He frowned and stared at the void with debris floating in front of him. After a while, the scan results were presented to him. The admiral's face twitched for a moment, and he said in a cold voice: "No signs of life?"
"Yes."
With a bang, the admiral punched the command platform hard, gritted his teeth and said: "Chase! Stop them!"
A major general suddenly exclaimed: "It's too late... No, wait! There is a fleet there... It's Phil from the Moon! Why is he there!"
