Chapter 727, Defense Plan
Du Shiliang was not harshly criticized.
After Wang Jiarong received the recovered ships, goods and personnel, he expressed his gratitude to him and requested more escorts. The entire caravan began to move again.
Although there are still worries about pirate attacks, the mission of the caravan still needs to be completed properly.
The reports sent to the alliance government and the Ministry of Military Affairs were not scolded.
Marshal Thaddeus had a communication with Du Shiliang.
Without taking the time to review the past, Thaddeus was most concerned about the Alliance Navy's overall plan for security work within the entire alliance.
A simple robbery incident is not critical; it is understandable that the navy was caught off guard by a new enemy like the Dark Eldar.
Tardius will not question Du Shiliang in these aspects.
But this situation must be eliminated in the future and must not happen again.
The federal government is also very concerned about this.
Before this, the alliance had not suffered a serious challenge from pirates. Even during the war, the safety of transportation in the Star Sea is relatively high.
The Dark Eldar, an extremely elusive organization, poses a great challenge to the alliance's maritime security.
Taddius urgently wants to know whether the naval headquarters' defense plan for this is reliable.
Du Shiliang was under great pressure as the acting chief of the Alliance Navy after Ye Lixia left. In fact, he was a little unsure and had no experience in dealing with the Dark Eldar.
But fortunately, he didn't, someone did.
Inquisitor Martini used to hang around in the Eastern Space Territory all year round, which was heavily invaded by dark elf pirates. He had a set of general plans that could be summarized for reference.
Then, there is the even more important Inquisition. They are experts in dealing with all kinds of aliens. The special methods they use to interrogate dark elves can also provide a lot of help.
With the help of these two parties, Du Shiliang came up with a plan that was barely passable.
The main focus is active attacks and sweeps, supplemented by passive patrol defense.
Let’s talk about the so-called passive defense first. The frequency of alliance naval operations has increased significantly. Provide more escorts to the alliance caravans, disperse the fleets a little more, and conduct early detection of key trade routes and tax fleet routes to ensure safety.
This is a relatively conventional method, but you cannot completely rely on passive defense.
As long as the Dark Eldar sneak into any galaxy, they can find an uninhabited asteroid or an uncolonized uninhabitable planet in the vast universe, and build a curtain spirit at a low cost. If you open the door, you're done. From now on, in my hometown of Comoros, I can just open a door and come over anytime and anywhere.
Faced with such a high degree of flexibility, if you defend passively, you will definitely be unable to defend against it, and your defense will be riddled with holes.
Moreover, we still need to rely on proactive means to explore and clean up the curtain spirit gates that the Dark Eldar may have established in every galaxy.
Destroy the door and they won't be able to get through.
This is the door. It is generally about tens of meters in diameter. On the scale of the universe, it is only a drop in the ocean, so it is very difficult to find.
Moreover, it does not have to be built on a habitable star, as long as there is a place where the curtain spirit gate can be fixed.
The experts of the Inquisition have some ways to find it quickly.
To be honest, the reliability is not particularly high, but it is still more efficient than searching aimlessly.
At the same time, the Alliance also has an advantage that many places do not have when fighting against the Dark Eldar. That's psionics.
The Storm Mage Group does not belong to the Alliance military, does not belong to the Alliance government, and does not belong to the Alliance Legal Center. Their role is more like the Sisters of Holy Mercy Lily or the Phoenix Space Marine Chapter, an independent organization from the outside. Including the mage group itself, as well as the Alliance National Mage College established on many planets.
In other words, they are the Psychic Order of the Alliance.
In terms of power structure, he directly obeys the leadership of Governor Gu.
Of course, in fact, they were still eating from the alliance's financial resources. At the same time, before Gu Hang left, he also asked the mages to work together.
In fact, Du Shiliang's request for help from the Storm Mage Group received a positive response.
The mage group also wants to make progress, and they also have to show their own value.
This is true when the Governor is here, and it is also true when the Governor is temporarily gone.
With the help of a group of psychic masters and the methods of the Tribunal, such a solution that also has certain search capabilities for the silent curtain spirit gate is relatively reliable. .
In addition to clearing out the Veiled Spirit Gate, we must also strictly prevent the defending Spirit Clan from establishing a Spirit Gate.
The good news is that the Eldar will not directly use the subspace engine for interstellar navigation - relevant researchers believe that it is not that they do not have the relevant technology, but they do not dare to use it because they are afraid of entering the subspace. After entering the space, they directly delivered the goods to the subspace evil god who was very interested in them.
As a result, the Dark Eldar travel across galaxies. In addition to using the Comorian Veil Spirit Gate for very convenient navigation, they also use astral tunnels for normal navigation.
Often these Dark Eldar ships that sneak over to build the Veiled Spirit Gate are relatively small in size, and they also have very powerful ship stealth technology. Humans can only achieve the technology on ships of the Traveler standard, but they can achieve the frigate level.
This means that even if an interstellar sentry is built at the transition point, it will be easy to miss them.
Unless many sentries are established at each transition point, and judges and psykers are deployed to station them for a long time.
This is obviously impossible, too many, and the cost is too high.
But it can be done in key hub areas.
In short, after listening to Du Shiliang's entire report, Thaddeus was quite satisfied.
The budget needed by Du Shiliang was also approved. The General Logistics Department and the Naval Logistics Department will work together with the government's production departments to start more outpost construction and resettlement plans.
The Alliance began to officially welcome the Dark Eldar pirates, which posed a challenge to the development of the Alliance.
The most direct performance can be looked at the opponent.
Zernos Bloodspell is in big trouble.
When he led his plundering fleet out of another curtain spiritual door and found an alliance merchant fleet, he did not dare to take action.
The escort force is relatively strong. If we take action, the losses may be relatively large, and it may be blocked by humans due to too long delay.
After this hesitation, ten days later, a larger human naval fleet arrived in this galaxy.
They seemed to have noticed something. Although they did not catch Zernos' fleet, they found the Veiled Spirit Gate and destroyed it.
The fleet of the Blood Curse Family is trapped in this galaxy in the real universe.
