Chapter 1704: The last galaxy!
"In the first phase of the offensive battle."
The Shadow Hunter Ace Fleet, the Reverse Scale Ace Fleet, and the Blizzard Ace Fleet all made their moves in succession.
The total number of enemy ships destroyed reached two million interstellar warships, accounting for one-fifth of the star system.
The enemy has also taken corresponding countermeasures. The remaining legion fleet in that star system is now trying to launch an attack on the route we control.
Meanwhile, surrounding star systems and enemy rear areas were sending reinforcements to the starship in this direction.
The enemy has discovered our intended operational objectives.
"Next, we're racing against time to catch up with the enemy!" the secretary reported to Emperor Zhao Chen.
Looking at the interstellar war sand table, Zhao Chen said in a deep voice, "The three elite fleet groups have made a good start."
The task is now handed over to these two regular fleet groups.
We must reach Galaxy X within forty hours!
——————
X Galaxy - Black God Emperor Flagship
"In just four hours, an entire frontline star system fell."
They also have ten million of our interstellar warships stationed there.
"Hehehe... Our defenses are truly useless against the enemy!" The Black God Emperor sneered as he looked at his subordinates.
The subordinates all lowered their heads, not daring to speak.
"The JF-17 fleet is clearly coming for me."
They have discovered that this galaxy is our command center.
Prepare to launch this surprise attack.
If we calculate in this direction, they are planning to traverse four star systems and establish a direct line to my star system in the shortest possible time.
"Cut me off."
An officer immediately said, "Your Majesty, all of this is within our expectations, and we have prepared contingency plans."
We will absolutely annihilate any invading enemy!
The Black God Emperor snorted coldly: "I know you were prepared all along. Why did I set up my headquarters here?"
Isn't it all for this step?
But I never expected the enemy's offensive to be so swift.
I don't know whether to say that the JF-17 fleet is really strong, or that you guys are just a bunch of useless trash.
In less than five hours, they conquered a galaxy.
How long will it take them for the remaining three star systems?
Should I really worry about my safety?
Upon hearing this question, several subordinates broke out in a cold sweat.
They knew that the Black God Emperor was truly enraged and wanted to settle scores with them.
"Make a note of the commander, deputy commander, and commanders at all levels of the relevant defense lines in charge of the defense of this star system."
"After the oath-taking duel ends, they will all be subject to military law!" the Black God Emperor said mercilessly.
Everyone felt a chill run down their spines; these people were about to lose their heads.
"Pass on my order: the next three star systems must intercept the enemy's attack at all costs."
This will buy us time to send our legion's fleet to reinforce this area.
Before the Dragon Legion fleet arrives here, I need to prepare one hundred million interstellar warships.
May their interstellar fleet never return!
The Black God Emperor also knew that the interstellar warships of the Dragon series had extremely high combat capabilities, so he had to completely dominate in numbers.
He had long anticipated that once the Xiaolong Legion fleet discovered his location, it would launch a surprise attack and decapitation strike.
The reason for not dispatching the interstellar fleet in advance.
The purpose was to lure them into a trap. If they didn't reveal something, how could they let the opposing Falcon Legion fleet fall into this trap?
So the Black God Emperor made himself the bait.
As expected, the Xiaolong Legion fleet did indeed fall into this trap, and it came on strong.
The Black God Emperor naturally needs to prepare for this situation, otherwise he might not be able to handle the fish and could even get pricked by its bones, which would be unpredictable.
Both sides had their own calculations in this contest.
As for who can realize their ideas, that depends on their own abilities.
Next, in the B13 system, the JF-17 Fourth Legion Fleet Group and the JF-17 Fifth Legion Fleet Group cooperated seamlessly.
Within ten hours, the route through this galaxy was established.
Because by the time they arrived here, the enemy had not yet dispatched reinforcements or established an effective defensive line.
The number of interstellar warships stationed here has not yet exceeded the previous ten million interstellar warships.
The difficulty of the attack was naturally reduced, and the defensive fortifications were far less complete than those in the B12 system.
Nevertheless, these two legion fleets were not elite legion fleets after all, in order to clear this star system within ten hours.
Their two fleet groups still suffered considerable casualties before they finally captured the star system.
Within these ten hours, they annihilated nearly one million enemy interstellar warships that were blocking their way, while losing nearly 150,000 interstellar warships themselves.
In any case, the mission was completed within an acceptable range.
By the time they reached the third star system, 'B17', the enemy's reinforcement fleet had clearly arrived to provide support, and they had also urgently constructed relevant defenses.
The two legion fleets spent twelve hours, exceeding the planned ten hours, in order to capture the B17 system, but fortunately they gained a lot of time in the first system.
This allows the entire operational plan to have a good margin for error.
However, in the battle of this third star system.
The losses of the two fleet groups exceeded those of any previous battle.
They annihilated 1.5 million enemy interstellar warships, while suffering 200,000 interstellar warship losses themselves.
Since then, the combined fleet of the two legions, comprising two million interstellar warships, has suffered a loss rate of 17%.
The last galaxy between the X galaxy and the X galaxy is the C28 galaxy.
Because this is located in the C star system, where the fighting is most intense, there are also a large number of interstellar warships that have devoured civilizations, and the efficiency of dispatching reinforcements is also very fast.
This resulted in the fact that, although the JF-17 fleet attacked very quickly, it arrived at this point...
The number of the Devouring Civilization Legion's fleet stationed here has increased several times over, reaching 15 million interstellar warships, and it is still increasing.
This puts immense pressure on the two JF-17 fleet groups!
In the battle of this last star system, Su Lan also deployed the Star Queen Ace Fleet.
Relying on their superior interstellar air power, tens of thousands of interstellar drones and interstellar fighters advanced the battle line at all costs, using their absolute superiority in interstellar air power to buy time for the battle.
This greatly helped the two fleet groups.
Nevertheless, the battle in this fourth star system was still extremely difficult, surpassing that of any previous star system.
The fleet of the Devouring Civilization has received a death order.
Any legion fleet fighting here must intercept the Xiaolong Legion fleet at all costs, for at least twenty hours of combat time.
If they were even a minute late, all of their commanders and soldiers would be dead.
Under this immense pressure, the Devouring Civilization Legion fleet unleashed unprecedented combat power.
This is combined with the legion fleet that has been continuously coming to support them.
As a result, the pace of advance here is not very fast, and the casualties on both sides are terrifying.
"Report: The enemy has far too many interstellar warships."
In order to intercept us, they even abandoned the usual starship spacing and shortened it to one-third of the original distance.
Originally, only ten interstellar warships could be arranged in one section, but they directly crammed in thirty interstellar warships.
Although this way, our attacks will cause the enemy to suffer more losses, their attacks will also make it difficult for us to defend ourselves.
Based on current calculations, it will be difficult for us to complete this combat mission within the original timeframe.
"Let alone ten hours, even fifteen hours would be difficult!" A corps commander directly telegraphed Marshal Xue Xiaoxiao.
She then added, "Marshal, I'm not complaining to you."
Instead, it describes the current situation on the battlefield, stating that our corps and fleet have already given their all.
Even if our entire fleet is wiped out here, I won't even blink.
But if this delays our grand plan, the impact will be enormous! The corps commander's tone was extremely urgent.
Marshal Xue Xiaoxiao remained silent; she did not reprimand the other party for their incompetence.
Because she had been paying close attention to the changes on the battlefield, she knew that the situation on the battlefield in the C28 star system was indeed very serious.
The pressure on conventional corps fleets is manageable.
"I see.
"You continue fighting, I'll figure something out." After Marshal Xue Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she thought for a while and then contacted Leona, the Marshal Commander of the Fifth Fleet Group of the Falcon Dragon Army.
Although separated by a video window, she could clearly feel the complex expression on Marshal Leona's face and the helplessness in her eyes.
"Is it because the offensive of the C28 galaxy is being thwarted that you're troubled?" Xue Xiaoxiao asked bluntly.
"What else could it be?"
The enemy's relentless interception has caused us heavy losses and made it difficult for us to advance.
"I can't think of any other way even if I rack my brains." Marshal Leona frantically scratched her head.
Xue Xiaoxiao said seriously, "The current situation is beyond what our two fleet groups can handle."
Although saying this might seem a bit irresponsible.
However, we should be more responsible for the overall operational plan. If the operational plan is delayed because of us, that would be the greatest irresponsibility.
I'm now preparing to contact Grand Marshal Charlotte to request some support so that we can take over the C28 system within the required timeframe!
Marshal Leona has always been proud and arrogant. If it were back when she was still in the Warhammer Star Alliance, she would never have taken the initiative to seek help.
However, her experience in the Xiaolong Legion fleet has smoothed out many of her rough edges. She knows that when necessary, she will have to make some sacrifices for the greater good!
When it's time to bow your head, you still need to bow your head.
Sometimes bowing your head isn't shameful; that's what she learned.
“Alright, I’ll contact Grand Marshal Charlotte with you.”
"If Grand Marshal Charlotte punishes us, we will all share the blame!" Marshal Leona said solemnly.
Xue Xiaoxiao smiled slightly.
The two of them contacted Grand Marshal Charlotte together.
The video call was connected almost immediately.
But before the two of them could speak...
Grand Marshal Charlotte on the other side spoke first: "I understand your current situation on the battlefield; you've reached a stalemate."
I have arranged for several near-T7 Golden Scarab-class heavy interstellar dreadnoughts to assist you in the battle.
With these near-T7 interstellar warships in place, there shouldn't be any problems!
Upon hearing what Grand Marshal Charlotte said...
Xue Xiaoxiao and Leona were both taken aback. They hadn't expected that before they could even speak, Grand Marshal Charlotte had already thought of everything.
"Grand Marshal, this military operation was a dereliction of duty on our part."
Finally, regarding the C28 system, although the enemy was very strong, we failed to take it as planned, which is our inescapable responsibility.
"We are willing to accept any punishment!" Xue Xiaoxiao said solemnly.
Marshal Leona raised her head and said, "I also bear responsibility; we should all be punished!"
Grand Marshal Charlotte looked at the two people in front of her and said somewhat speechlessly, "When did I say I was going to punish either of you?"
The two were taken aback by Marshal Charlotte's words.
Perhaps they didn't think of that.
Grand Marshal Charlotte then spoke up, saying, "I'm not stupid. I know what the situation is on the battlefield."
I will not put all the pressure on you.
I know exactly what you're capable of.
Do I look like an unreasonable person to ask you to complete tasks that are already difficult for you to complete?
Or do you think that's the kind of person the Dragon Emperor is?
Hearing Grand Marshal Charlotte's words, he also understood the teasing tone in her words.
Marshal Xue Xiaoxiao was the first to react, and she immediately said, "Please rest assured, Grand Marshal and Your Majesty, we will definitely complete the mission."
Within forty hours, our army will be at the city gates!
"My ship's cannons haven't even hit that Black Serpent Emperor yet!" Marshal Leona said jokingly.
The three of them looked at each other and smiled.
In the ensuing battle, under the arrangement of Grand Marshal Charlotte, consideration was given to the insufficient firepower of the two legion fleet groups.
Thirty near-T7 Golden Scarab-class heavy interstellar dreadnoughts were directly deployed and appeared on the front-line battlefield of the C28 system.
Thirty near-T7 Golden Scarab-class heavy interstellar dreadnoughts.
This number is even more terrifying than when they launched a counterattack and devoured the native universe of a civilization.
One can imagine what would happen if these thirty near-T7 Golden Scarab-class heavy interstellar dreadnoughts joined the battlefield.
Thirty near-T7 Golden Scarab-class heavy interstellar dreadnoughts advanced together on the front line, supported by two legion fleets.
Let the offensive speed return to an ideal state.
The target galaxy, Galaxy X, is getting closer and closer.
The decisive battle between the two sides has reached a fever pitch!
