"The scan of the Zerg fleet has been completed, and the number is one hundred thousand. Among them, there are only three T4 Zerg Hive Motherships.
There are 90,000 T1 Hive Motherships, 9,000 T2 Hive Motherships, and more than 1,000 T3 Hive Motherships.
The siege of the Blue Crystal Starport is underway." Lilith Hui reported.
Zhao Chen looked at the huge Zerg fleet on the interstellar sand table around the Blue Crystal Star Port. There were really many of them.
One hundred thousand!
It's really hard to imagine how Qin Xiaotian managed to accumulate so many insect nest motherships.
"Tell Bai Xue that the attack of the T3 interstellar missile ship should not be completed in one round, but should be carried out in a step-by-step manner to ensure that our interstellar missiles can provide battlefield fire support when necessary." Zhao Chen said.
There are simply too many bugs, and relying on the firepower of an interstellar missile ship to suppress them cannot achieve the same terrifying suppression power as on the previous interstellar battlefield.
Assuming that Bai Xue carries out a saturation fire strike, there will be a long period of insufficient firepower. If the Zerg fleet takes advantage of this time, it launches a ferocious attack.
Without the fire support of interstellar missiles on the frontal battlefield, it is very likely to cause great losses.
Therefore, Zhao Chen changed the attack method of the interstellar missile ship.
"Adopt the 'Zerg Combat Plan No. 1', and don't take the surrounding environment lightly. Release all interstellar reconnaissance aircraft to expand our reconnaissance scope!" Zhao Chen ordered.
"yes."
The three thousand interstellar battleships of the Xiaolong First Legion formed a battle formation.
At first glance, this battle formation is focused on defense.
Even the interstellar battlecruisers and interstellar cruisers have given up the interleaved combat technique of active attack, and are instead on standby in the battle formation as support.
The starfighters did not compete for the interstellar air supremacy of the Zerg fleet.
Just kidding, go compete with the Zerg for interstellar air supremacy.
No matter how awesome Zhao Chen is, he still can't do it.
The star fighters and interstellar drones released by the T3 Phoenix-class heavy aircraft carrier starship are mainly responsible for the task of assisting defense, destroying those Zerg units that break through the fire network and stick to friendly star battleships, and reduce their damage to the star battleships.
.
At the same time, interstellar supply ships occupy the hub positions of each formation.
Zhao Chen, Charlotte, Chitong and others had discussed a large-scale battle against the Zerg.
The most important of these is undoubtedly ensuring adequate firepower rationing.
Therefore, the work of the interstellar supply ship is very important in this regard. It is necessary to replenish strategic materials to the interstellar battleship in a timely manner so that the interstellar battleship can continue to fight.
And above this, the interstellar supply ship of the Xiaolong Legion has one more job.
Continuous supplies during wartime.
As the name suggests, it is to carry out supply operations for the star battleships while the star battleships are fighting.
Although the efficiency of this method will be relatively low, there is a certain degree of security.
But this is the best way to deal with the Zerg fleet.
At this moment, the Zerg fleet that originally besieged the Blue Crystal Star Port seemed to have smelled the smell of meaty wolves, overwhelmingly sweeping towards the First Legion of Xiaolong.
Three thousand interstellar battleships, in front of a hundred thousand hive motherships and the swarms of insects they carry, are like small rocks in front of a huge black wave.
"All defense lines, full firepower! Destroy these bugs!" Zhao Chen stared at the battlefield on the interstellar sandbox.
Two thousand T3 Triceratops-class interstellar heavy-armored assault frigates and six hundred T3 Wolverine-class heavy interstellar heavy-armored destroyers form the first line of defense.
The firepower network composed of close-in defense artillery destroyed all the Zerg combat units, turning them into exploding fireballs that were fleeting.
The weapon module of the T3 Wolverine-class heavy interstellar armored destroyer will supplement the firepower against some hive motherships and high-level Zerg units.
And behind these two combat-type star battleships.
Thirty T3 Emperor-class heavy star battleships are holding the battle here, and their bow guns are looking for those high-level Hive Motherships, ensuring that every shot can kill at least one T3 Hive Mothership!
The remaining star battleships play a supporting role, commonly known as going where needed.
The T4 Suzaku-class medium star cruiser and the T4 Paladin-class heavy star missile frigate were both deployed to the forward position, relying on their firepower output and defense capabilities to defeat the swarm in front of them.
Zhao Chen stared at the swarm of insects on the interstellar sand table that was getting closer and closer to their defensive position. There was a declining number next to it, which represented the current defense distance!
Once the defense distance reaches '0', that is the worst-case scenario for the Xiaolong Legion.
"Report, T4 Blue Eyes White Dragon-class heavy interstellar armored battleship No. 02 has discovered a T4 hive mothership. It is within the range of fire. Please ask for permission to fire!" Lilith suddenly reported.
Zhao Chen frowned and opened the video window directly.
Looking at the 'young face' opposite.
"Huang Xiaoting, you and Xue Xiaoxiao are both students at the North Star Starship Military Academy at the same time. You two took elective courses in the Starship Battleship. Your overall score exceeds that of Xue Xiaoxiao.
But, you know, in my opinion, you are not as good as Xue Xiaoxiao, you are far behind Xue Xiaoxiao!" Zhao Chen stared at Huang Xiaoting.
Huang Xiaoting was stunned for a moment, wondering why the commander suddenly criticized her at this time.
"Xue Xiaoxiao has many problems, but she has one thing you don't have, that is, she knows exactly what she should do on the battlefield.
For example, at this time, after the target appears, she will not stay there and ask me if I want to shoot.
You are in charge of the T4 Blue Eyes White Dragon class heavy interstellar armored battleship, not any other interstellar battleship.
You must have the ability to judge on the spot.
If you think you can't do it, then you, the acting captain, can replace you now!" Zhao Chen added another sentence indifferently: "Because of your inquiry, you wasted thirty seconds of our time.
Do you know what you have to do now?"
Huang Xiaoting was enlightened by the commander's instructions. She stood up straight and said firmly: "I understand, commander, please continue to let me command this battle. After the battle, I am willing to accept any punishment for dereliction of duty."
Zhao Chen didn't say anything and closed the communication window directly.
Huang Xiaoting is a crew member recruited by Zhao Chen from the North Star. Like Xue Xiaoxiao, she likes interstellar battleships and even surpasses Xue Xiaoxiao in terms of overall performance.
However, she also has some shortcomings.
Zhao Chen also saw this. If it were in the past, he could slowly train Huang Xiaoting, and she would definitely become the new generation of commanding class of Xiaolong Legion in the future.
It's a pity that the Xiaolong Legion is developing rapidly and there is no time for her.
We can only let her fight on the battlefield and accumulate experience.
"Captain..." The vice-captain looked at Huang Xiaoting, the acting captain. To be honest, she felt that the captain's reprimand was a bit unfair, because what is taught in the academy is to obey the commander's orders.
"Needless to say, it's my responsibility.
We have already wasted nearly a minute, don't waste any more precious time.
Is the target T4 Hive Mothership still within our attack range?"
"It's still there, we're keeping track of the lockdown!"
"The twelve main guns provide cross-covering fire, and the bow gun is responsible for locking and destroying the target.
Execute the combat order!" Huang Xiaoting stared coldly at the T4 Hive Mothership.
"yes!"
The twelve main guns on the T4 Blue Eyes White Tiger-class heavy interstellar assault destroyer No. 02 are locked in one direction and provide fire cover.
The huge bow cannon fired a silver-white beam of light, pointing directly at the T4 Hive Mothership opposite.
