After judging that a series of mineral worlds with bloody skulls had a more important position, Soshyan transferred the White Temple led by Arash and some troops from Lamptan to the Bloody skull galaxy to accelerate the cleaning of the mineral planets there, and also facilitated subsequent mobilization and assembly. Lamptan was handed over to the Cryptoman leader of Marakin and the Crimson Blades.
After a series of dispatches, the Central Fleet led by Soshyan also set off from Towatsk to attack the Kara Galaxy.
Since Huron was still digesting the scrap ship he got, Soshiyan would definitely not let the other party do what he wanted. Since he wanted to fight to the decisive battle, he would naturally not give the other party a chance and place to choose. Therefore, he chose to take the initiative. The war on Badabu's side has ended, and the troops there will be able to quickly transfer to the front line.
This attack gathered a total of more than 2,500 interstellar warriors and more than 200 various warships in ten battle groups, ascetics, and nearly 300 million star warriors, and nearly 300 million star warriors, which even exceeded the Badabu siege.
What they are going to attack are three habitable worlds of the Kara Galaxy, Stelliberg, Perdaga, and Yalilo, and five other non-habitable but capable of garrisoning troops.
The structure of the Kara Galaxy is very similar to that of the solar system, with a stable and safe orbit. As one of the galaxies closest to the depths of the Great Vortex, the Kara Galaxy has always been the frontier outpost of the Great Vortex Region Empire in the past, and is very similar to Kadian's positioning. The three livable worlds are all designated as fortress worlds. Each eleven tax collection year can provide more than 200 million troops regularly, and now it is also providing a continuous stream of manpower for the Red Pirates.
As the portal of the Marg Galaxy, the last stronghold of the Red Pirates, once it is lost here, the Red Pirates will completely lose almost all their footholds in the physical universe.
When the imperial army rushed towards the planet Kara, Huron quickly got the news. Although he didn't know that Soshyan had the key information about his abandoned ship, he also understood that his final decisive battle had not been completed and he had to buy some more time.
So he sent all his war lords and the pierced Zhu Fu to the planet Kara to rely on the powerful defense system of the galaxy to resist the offensive of the imperial army.
Although the Kara Galaxy does not have the magnificent galaxy-level defense system of the Badabu Galaxy, Huron still made efforts to integrate the defenses of each planet. The three death worlds on the outermost periphery of the galaxy have basically completed the fortification. In order to make up for the shortcomings of orbital defense facilities, Huron also ingeniously connected a large number of small ships with useless civilian ships and transport ships, and installed weapons on it, using them as a temporary orbital defense station for the planet.
This strategy was often used when he was the leader of the battle group to explore the vortex in his early years, and it was very suitable for dealing with pirates and scattered war gangs.
The three habitable planets Stelliberg, Perdaga and Yalilo all have complete orbital defense facilities and galaxy-level defense weapons. They will be the key to the blockade of the Empire fleet's activities in the galaxy, and the two death worlds closest to the stars are used as the armory of the galaxy, because they are not easily attacked due to distance.
At the same time, Huron also formulated the general policy of swarm combat, that is, to form an attack group with a large number of small ships, and not directly collide with the main fleet of the Empire, but to run away after brief contact.
The Black Heart King had realized that sending a large fleet before taking out enough power was for free, so he had only two requirements for the naval power of the Kara Galaxy defenders, harassing the Imperial Expeditionary Fleet as much as possible, and providing continuous follow-up assistance to the planetary defenders as much as possible.
Since the Death World has no atmosphere and most facilities are hidden in safe underground bunkers, Huron is not worried about Soshiyan's launch of extinction weapons.
The most common extinction weapon of the Empire, incinerating torpedoes and virus bombs, have no effect on the dead world without atmosphere. The cyclone torpedoes are not particularly effective in a world with relatively stable geological stability. They are mainly used to scatter life and oceans on the surface of planets. The most useful bipolar torpedoes are too rare. There are only two preserved in a star area. Huron is better than anyone knows this, because he had been in charge of the bipolar torpedo arsenal of the Great Vortex at the time, and now Soshiyang must not have one.
In addition, Huron also ordered all the void thunders in the armory and deployed a large number of minefields inside the Kara planet to prevent the Imperial fleet from crossing the outer planets to launch a sudden strike on the livable world inside.
His idea was that Soshiyan had to fight from outside to the galaxy little by little, which would require a lot of time.
In fact, Huron's estimate is correct. Soshyan does not have bipolar torpedoes in his hand, because all of them were taken by Hulblet to attack Badab, and the virus bombs and cyclone torpedoes in his hand have no effect on the solid world of death.
But why did he fight according to Huron's ideas?
Soshyang had no intention of paying attention to the three defenders in the dead world, and he was not in the mood to fight the gophers.
His response was two solutions.
First, a fleet was sent to feint attack the three fortress worlds. Huron's temporary "Iron Cable Boat" orbital defense facilities were bluffing, but their actual firepower was very weak and they had no ability to threaten large warships at all. Therefore, it was not so troublesome to dismantle. There was no need to send a very powerful fleet, but it could create the illusion that they wanted to attack.
The second is to drag the Scar of Victory up and use its numerous flight decks to load a large number of fighters. It does not require an astonishing number like the two Angustom naval battles, but thousands of large fighters are enough to deal with the Red Pirates' harassed teams with backward fire control and weak firepower, and can also clear the void minefields.
Just when the Red Pirates defenders, including Zhu Fuzhen, thought the Expeditionary Force planned to fight three death worlds first and assembled troops and fleets on the planet Stelleberg to prepare for support at any time, but unexpectedly, the main fleet headed by the Inquisitive Truth suddenly passed through the minefield and headed straight for the planet.
Zhu Fu was very sober and immediately asked the fleet to evacuate around the planet, and ordered the world to guard against each other, and the gathered troops were on the spot to move into defense.
At the same time, he also found some aspects that were beneficial to his side. There were still large minefields in the Kara Galaxy, which meant that the Empire's fleet could not use the same means to raid other directions again. Secondly, although the three death fortress worlds could indeed be bypassed, they were not worthless themselves. The Red Pirates' fleet could still be anchored on their orbits, and the troops on it could be mobilized at any time. If the Empire's offensive slowed down, the defenders of the three worlds could even organize their ships to launch a jump gang raid on the Victory Seizure, and there would be no chance.
Anyway, just say that, if you firmly hold on, you will have a way.
