We all know that star maps are divided into general-purpose versions, military versions, as well as various customized versions and special models for the protagonist.
Let’s leave aside the latter one and only talk about the first two.
The universal version, to put it simply, is the standard star map recorded in the public databases of the Standard Shipping Association and the Galactic Civilization Council. All legal ships can download and access it at any time. Almost all public trade routes in the universe are recorded in
On this version of the star chart.
As for the military version of the star map, it is naturally valuable information held by the military of various countries. Although it overlaps with the standard star map for the most part, there will always be some very unknown secret passages.
The value of this star map is naturally much more valuable than the production and management consulting of those factories in Blood Gate No. 4. Unfortunately, it only belongs to the Kingdom of Kaitai. If it were for the entire empire, Yu Lian would even think that its value exceeds that of the underground warehouse.
of those seized.
"Currently, the Kingdom of Ketai has no troops to defend, and there is no danger to defend it. According to the route on the Kingdom of Ketai's military star map, it only takes two or three weeks for us to burn the war all the way to their capital.
"Yu Liandao.
Chief of Staff Li Ren said: "...the main force of the Imperial Guard fleet departing from Wanwang Pass is still a month away from us."
"If you pay attention to the timing, you can still escape unscathed." Admiral Bonaparte calculated.
These two people are indeed moved. In fact, if they can burn the territory of the Kingdom of Cathay to the greatest extent, destroy its factories, farmland, settlements, and even all space facilities, the more power they can bring to the empire from afar.
The fleet will create a greater logistical burden. If all goes well, it might even force the empire to give up attacking the Community all the way from Nantianmen.
If this plan is carried out, the civilians of Kaitai will definitely suffer huge losses.
However, this is a war, and victory must be ensured first. Humanism is a tool used by the victors to flaunt themselves.
At least, that's what General Bonaparte and Lieutenant General Li Ren thought.
Yu Lian thought for a while, opened the star map he had obtained, and ran his finger across the blood gate, but he did not point to its capital, but pointed at a galaxy that was only eight jumps away from the blood gate.
"It only takes a week's flight to get here, so you have plenty of time."
"Oh, Leon Kasan. This must be the place where the King of Orang Mane's dragon thrives." the chief of staff said suspiciously.
"Yes, but now it is one of the most important local military nodes in the Cathay Kingdom. If you retreat, you can return to the Lion City Star Zone to defend, and if you advance, you can support the capital. Of course, the main task now is to control the main settlements of the Terrabi people.
The Telfor sector."
Bonaparte and Li Ren were both veteran generals and talented people, so they naturally understood in an instant.
"Terabi, I remember revolting," Bonaparte said.
"The Terrabi people have been rebelling." Yu Lianda said.
"It's just that the scale of the rebellion was a bit large during this period." Li Ren said.
"The information captured in the terminal shows that the Catai people still have more than 50 warships here, but the largest warship is the heavy cruiser."
If these fleets were used to suppress rebellions, they would be a dimensionality reduction strike, but in the eyes of the powerful outer ring fleets, they were really just a piece of cake.
In addition, there are 60,000 marine troops. If this army is eaten, the Kaitai King's army will be wiped out from this universe as an organic whole." Yu Liandao.
"Then, it can also relieve the pressure on the Terrabi rebels." Chief of Staff Li Ren calculated: "You are preparing to make this fire burn more powerfully! Think about it carefully, in the central tower and the defensive fire, The engineer named Lal Gray Roll has a typical Terrabi name."
"There are only a few Catai people who can do fine work than there are Myshandar trolls who can play the piano." Yu Lian shrugged.
His Excellency the Commander said quietly: "Speaking of which, since you went to the empire, the Sumi people have rebelled, the Flemors have rebelled, and the scale of the Terrabi people's resistance has also grown tremendously!"
"Well, the first two are from the Empire, and the second one is from Kaitai. Even the objects are different, so it's all coincidence. If there is any connection, at most it's lacking." Yu Lian shrugged: "Moreover, Your Excellency, I can swear to the spirit of the universe that I have never had any official dealings or contact with these rebels."
"Officially?" General Bonaparte repeated these words with a half-smile: "You are right, the Terrabi rebels and other rebels in the empire have nothing to do with the community. Contact. However, the enemy of the enemy may not become an ally, at least not an enemy.”
Yu Lian added: "Actually, not only the Terrabi people, but also the ordinary Catai people are in good condition? It was not only the Terrabi engineers and technicians who surrendered to our army in the central tower, but also A considerable number of ordinary Kaitai soldiers. In order to rebuild the fleet, the Kaitai royal family has attacked all strata in the country, and the hatred of the people has reached the critical point. When the results of today's battle spread, ordinary Terrabi people Will make a choice."
To put it bluntly, under a system of extreme military (meow) nationalism (woo), even if you can "strengthen the army" through the method of demons disintegrating Dafa for a while, you can't afford to lose.
"In short, as long as the garrisons and bases in the Leonkasan system are knocked out, the Kingdom of Cathay is very likely to be at war. If the main force of the empire wants to transit here, it will need to pay a higher price to maintain the supply line, and it is even possible Give up advancing from here," the chief of staff said.
"The Galactic Empire may also find a way to restore the security of the Kingdom of Cathay first. For example, abolish the Royal Mane Royal Family, directly adopt the Kingdom of Cathay as the empire's homeland, and hand it over to the capable and capable Lord Tirello to take charge of Terra. The outstanding talents among the Bi and Catai people are citizens and nobles. This can be regarded as another type of territorial expansion. In this way, even if their aggressive war against the community fails, it can be regarded as giving the country a Explain. If it were me, I would do this." Yu Lian laughed.
"Hahahaha, if this is really the case, then there will be peace in the universe. We can also talk about the so-called peace of a generation. However, I have never heard that the empire can be so spiritless." Joseph Bonnet
Badao.
"So, we can only do our part." Yu Liandao.
General Bonaparte nodded slightly, turned on the terminal and told the adjutant: "Inform the entire army that you still have 12 hours to take turns to rest and clean the battlefield. The entire army must be ready to depart before 8 a.m. tomorrow!"
An excellent general must have this kind of drive to act vigorously and resolutely.
He looked at Yu Lian again and said in a deep voice: "As you just said, brother Yu Lian, we have plenty of time and strength before the main force of the empire arrives. If we break into the Kingdom of Kaitai, we don't need to mobilize the entire army.
.So, what’s next? What do you need?”
Yu Lian was not polite and said directly: "Then, Commander, please temporarily hand over the command of the four Lord God-class ships to me. In addition, I also need the eight Kadesh-class aircraft carriers that we will be operating with today."
"Oh...you really dare to speak!" Admiral Bonaparte's eyes widened. His eyes were exactly the same as when he first went to the Gold Club to gain experience and received the bill afterwards.
However, His Excellency the Commander did not hesitate for long and said: "I will hand over the command of ten more Yinglong-class battlecruisers to you."
A warm current flowed through Yu Lian's heart, and he stood at attention and saluted.
"In this way, the army along your route can be called the remaining fleet. Haha, after the establishment of the theater system, the organization of the outer fleet has been completely broken up." Chief of Staff Li Ren said with a smile.
Yu Lian felt that although the chief of staff looked very honest and honest, and looked like a fisherman who had only been in the air force all his life, he was still very skillful in speaking.
Fortunately, Admiral Bonaparte next to him said: "The best thing for soldiers is to be able to gather and disperse. Who said that what I am commanding now cannot be Bonaparte's fleet?"
In this way, the battle that later generations called the "Battle of the Blood Gate" officially came to an end on September 3, 833. This was also the first large-scale battle that broke out in the Milky Way since the beginning of the war. The battle.
As a result, it ended with the occupation of the Blood Gate Galaxy, the largest border military base of the Kingdom of Ketai.
Of course, the Earth Fleet did not stay here for too long. They just dragged all the loot and surrendered ships back to the Nantianmen, and then bombed all the facilities underground, on the ground, in the sky, and in the universe of the Blood Gate to pieces.
, and then left without feeling satisfied.
Looking at them like this, they probably just had to dig out all the earthworms and cut them in half vertically.
A total of 127 warships were injured, 26 warships were sunk, and 17,000 casualties were paid in the outer ring theater of the Blue Star Community. Most of the losses occurred in the stalemate in the West End System. When the war broke out
When it reached the blood gate, it was almost a one-sided massacre.
Of the 7 dreadnoughts of the three-nation combined fleet, 5 were sunk and 2 were captured. Of the 14 battlecruisers, 9 were destroyed, 2 were captured and 3 escaped.
These capital ships were equivalent to 90% destroyed, which was extremely miserable. This was probably because the Earth's pilots focused their main attention on these large ships from the beginning.
As a result, in addition to the capital ships, there were more than 800 warships, and finally nearly 300 warships, together with hundreds of thousands of defeated soldiers, fled from the purgatory-like battlefield in panic.
According to subsequent statistics, the Three Kingdoms left more than one million prisoners and wounded in the Blood Gate and West End systems, as well as twice that number of dead.
The Commander-in-Chief of the United Fleet and the Regent of the Cathay Kingdom, Charon Mane, died in battle on his loyal flagship, as did most of the confidants he had raised.
We all know that if a dictatorial military strongman suddenly dies unexpectedly, the subsequent development of the political situation will be very lively. If you think about it with your knees, in the next few months, there will definitely be a show in the Kingdom of Cathay that can be filmed for at least seven or eight seasons.
Hundreds of episodes of Game of Thrones.
In addition, two digits of generals from Embu and Angmans died in battle. Although the main reason was that they did not have time to run away, judging from the results, they really looked brave.
As a result, not only the Kingdom of Cathay, which was fighting at home, but also the United Emirates of Embu and the Grand Duchy of Ammans, which were on friendly terms, also lost nearly 70% of their defense strength after the battle.
Under such circumstances, even if they are no longer human beings, the Dragon Kings of the Dawn Royal Family should shed tears of sympathy for these two countries, right? They should appreciate their loyalty to the country and not oppress too much, right?
...Of course, this is actually impossible to say. You must know that the fleet left by the empire in the Blood Gate was also completely wiped out. After all, the guard ships and arsenal ships, which were both thin-skinned and bulky, were originally prepared to cooperate with the combined fleet to attack Nantianmen.
The speed and maneuverability of the battleships are beyond description. It is indeed too difficult for them to race against the fleeing friendly destroyers and cruisers.
The death of 12 guard ships, 20 arsenal ships, and nearly 20,000 elite sailors is certainly nothing to the empire with its great business. But, the supervisors placed at the Blood Gate... ah no, the advisory group
If the top management reimbursed two-thirds of the money, that's another story.
A total of twelve Astral Knights, including a Knight Commander, were destroyed in the artillery fire. These well-trained psykers did not have time to show the results of their hard-earned training, so they perished and decomposed in the intensive artillery fire.
The most basic particles of the universe. Their hopes, honors, futures and even names disappeared in the cruel energy cluster.
From this perspective, what is the difference between the noble Astral Knight and those cannon fodder Marines who are bombing from the disappearing orbit?
Speaking of which, a certain divinely chosen champion played a three-minute game that made the Heraldry Academy cry during the Battle of the River Valley at the God of War Festival. After this Blood Gate battle, more nobles died than last time.
, but I don’t know how long the Heraldry Academy will cry for.
What, you said that the initiator of both crying episodes was the same person?
Then no problem!
In this way, the Battle of the Blood Gate Galaxy came to a successful end. The result of this battle was like a blazing gale, blowing to all parts of the universe. Now, let's see how these gale winds can brew into a tsunami.
However, this is beyond the control of Yu Lian, the instigator.
So, on the next day, the newly victorious outer ring fleet began to prepare to divide its forces and move forward according to the original plan.
When Yu Lian returned to the Fuxi, he saw the officers lining up on the bridge to welcome him, led by Chief of Staff Mkawa, Captain Tovey, Brigadier Zuo Wanhu and Colonel Walter.
They stood at attention and saluted, all of them were as green as pines and cypresses.
Well, it really feels like the First Citizen has returned to his loyal old Praetorian Guard.
Yu Lian returned the favor while dispelling these random thoughts.
"Do you already know the target and voyage plan?"
"All captains and navigators have been transferred!" Chief of Staff Mkawa responded.
"Very good, the whole army is set off!" Yu Lian said as he sat down on his admiral's chair.
"Fleet Yu, proceed! Heading 17B, speed 1!" Adjutant Luo Zeshi immediately broke down his order into passwords and quickly conveyed them to the entire army.
Yu Fleet... Yu Liang just wanted to drink a glass of Bingkuoluo, but now he suddenly started coughing uncontrollably.
"Fleet Yu, Formation 6. The Fuxi is starting to activate!" Captain Tovey began to execute the next order. The Fuxi under his command also started to activate.
It took nearly five minutes for this most perfect giant ship in the history of the community to start up, before the other warships started up one after another and followed. Soon, a smooth and neat sailing formation was formed.
Well, it’s a perfect sailing rhythm. Everyone’s fleet formation operations are really becoming more and more proficient!
...So what the hell is this Yu Fleet?
"As you can see, there are actually rebels on your ship. They all have loyalty written on their faces, but they are all jealous of you in their bones. It is indeed necessary to tighten the military discipline. Otherwise it will continue like this.
Ah, sister is getting more and more worried about your future." A female voice that was neither yin nor yang floated into Yu Lian's ears again like a ghost.
Yu Lian knew without looking that it could only be the zero-element spirit, the silicon telepathic spirit, and the cosmic female ghost.
