Chapter 316 Blitz on the Tau Star!
Bock Anjiamen World.
Boom——
As soon as a remnant fleet of the Tau Empire jumped out of the shallow channel of the subspace, there were broken ships that could not withstand it, and they were corroded by the energy of the subspace. explode.
Inside the bridge.
Shadow Sun looked at the green Bok'an star and breathed a sigh of relief:
"Finally escaped..."
This fleet no longer has to venture into that hateful dimension and sail.
The Tau Empire's warp drive consumes more energy than the human warp drive, and can only support ships "floating" in the shallow depths of the warp.
The speed of super-light navigation is only one-third of that of humans.
This means that when they conduct space operations, they must mobilize their fleets and plan their voyages accurately.
Once there is a mistake in route planning, it will cost more to correct.
“Without a doubt, we have encountered a terrible enemy!”
Yingyang was still immersed in the previous space battle, as if he had been frightened in some way, and he felt even more unwilling.
The human fleet came so quickly.
The fleet surrounded her like a prophet, and the precise and fierce firepower made it even more difficult for the fleet to resist.
The enemy commander seems to have insight into the movement trajectory of our fleet.
Every attack hits a weak spot.
This has never happened before!
However, that was not the real reason for the failure of this space battle.
The enemy fleet is indeed powerful.
But Yingyang leads one of the main fleets of the Tau Empire.
She has the ability to resist the enemy's surprise attack. Even if she fails in the end, it won't be so tragic!
The enemy ship's gunfire did cause damage to the main fleet at first, but she quickly held on and mobilized the fleet to organize the artillery defense line.
Fought back.
But what happened next was beyond Yingyang's expectation.
The Ether Elder in another ship interfered with the command and forcibly ordered all warships to prioritize defending his ship to protect the safety of this noble being.
Such a mobilization disrupted Yingyang's arrangement, and allowed the enemy fleet to seize the opportunity and launch a fierce artillery advance.
After.
It was a brutal massacre of battleships!
Yingyang, the legendary general, faced an unprecedented defeat. The main fleet he led was out of ten, and only a handful of ships were under the suicidal cover of the outer fleet.
Successfully escaped back to the home world.
"How did the enemy fleet discover our whereabouts?"
Yingyang frowned and thought.
This trip of the main fleet is extremely concealed and almost impossible to detect, and the time and place of the fleet's stay are known so accurately.
Thus launching a siege attack.
There is only one answer to the question.
That is, there is a traitor among them, someone has betrayed the Greater Good.
Provided the enemy with information about our main fleet!
Furthermore, apart from herself, the only people who can know the trajectory of this level of fleet are the members and commanders of the Ether Parliament.
Thinking of this, Yingyang couldn't help but feel discouraged.
Without evidence, she has no right to doubt an ether.
What's more, there is no law within the Tau Empire to punish Ether.
Maybe the Ether Parliament can punish it, but if it is a high-level Ether.
The most you can get is a reprimand or transfer.
In this regard, Yingyang felt powerless.
Since the disaster in the unknown dimension caused by the fourth expansion of the sky, many things in the Tau Empire have changed.
The Ether Conference is more wary of generals like them.
Even more deadly is another thing.
In a war, the Supreme Ether Anvar ordered Commander Orui to lead the troops to carry out a meaningless suicide mission.
As a result, Ou Rui disobeyed this ridiculous order and led his team to evacuate.
This caused an uproar within the Tau Empire.
Never before had any Tau dared to disobey the Aether's orders.
Then.
The commander Ou Rui disappeared.
Actually.
Ying Yang also secretly disobeyed the orders of the Ether. During the war, he refused the rescue order of an Ether and allowed him to die on the swamp battlefield.
But she doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with it.
If you follow the ridiculous order to save the ether, it will put the entire army in extreme danger and cause the entire battle plan to fail.
Making countless soldiers die.
It was a necessary sacrifice, and in the end she won a grand victory for the Greater Good.
“Since ordinary clans like us can sacrifice ourselves without hesitation for the great Greater Good.
Then Ether should also make some sacrifices, right?”
Yingyang thought secretly in his heart.
Of course, these words cannot be spoken.
In that war, although Ying Yang led the Tau Empire army to a complete victory.
But because an ether died, she still suffered some investigations and reprimands.
Fortunately, the Ether Parliament did not investigate anything.
After these events, ethers were arranged to supervise the armies of various high-ranking generals of the Tau Empire, and could even deprive those generals of their command rights when necessary.
However, such an arrangement.
This further reduced the command efficiency of the Tau Empire fleet.
Just like this encounter with the human fleet, the interference of the ether elders caused the fleet to be defeated in a very short period of time!
"The beautiful illusions that our race has always had are being shattered, and the cruel truth of the galaxy is gradually approaching..."
Yingyang thought pessimistically.
As the Tau Empire expanded, she increasingly discovered the horrors of the galaxy.
The legendary general has realized that their race is not a strong one, but more like a cub that has just stepped out of the nest.
And surrounded by terrible hungry wolves.
Human beings are one of them.
What’s even more cruel is.
The constant victory has made her compatriots still immersed in the glory and dreams of the past, and they did not notice the danger at all.
Little did they know that the Milky Way had already opened its bloody mouth to their ethnic group!
Shadow Yang believes in the Greater Good and believes that it can guide his people to survive in the galaxy.
But here’s the thing.
The existence of ether has seriously affected the development of the ethnic group, and they equate themselves with the Greater Good.
Control everything.
The long-term respect and pampering has led to the arrogance and incompetence of most ethers, and they are simply unable to lead the group to survive in this cruel world.
"Perhaps, Yuan Yuan is right..."
Yingyang thought of the traitor of the Tau Empire, another legendary general of the Tau Empire - Yuan Yuan.
Vision also has a brilliant record, and has further predicted the horrors and threats of mankind. He is so dedicated to the greater good without any regard for his own life.
Willing to give everything for it.
However, because vision repeatedly disobeyed the discipline of ether.
As a result, the Ethers decided to let this legendary general die on the battlefield to avoid having to find excuses to deal with him later.
For this reason, the ethers issued him a suicidal combat order.
However.
Just when Yuan Yuan accepted the combat order and prepared to rush to the battlefield.
An accident happened.
He seemed to have noticed something. Not only did he disobey the orders, he also cut into pieces those who issued the orders.
Call them devils.
After Yuan Yuan finished all this, he led his troops to defect.
Built a new home.
The ethers called the homeland established by the traitors the "Farsighted Enclave" and designated it as a restricted area.
Also eradicate all traces of General Farsight from the Tau Empire.
Ying Yang still remembers the early warning that Yuan Yuan gave him.
The traitor claimed that the Ether clan, as the ruling class, had sinister intentions and was woefully self-deceived, and that they could not lead their people to survive in the galaxy.
The Tau Empire is just a small splash in the galaxy.
It doesn't matter at all.
Only by realizing this can their race rise and stand tall in the galaxy.
At the same time, the traitor threw out a crazy secret.
He told Yingyang.
There is a terrible creature called a demon in that unknown dimension. During that disaster, they have come to the homeland of the Tau people.
He saw with his own eyes the signs of demons in the ether.
That’s why I killed them!
When he recalled this incident, Yingyang's body couldn't help but tremble.
She didn’t want to go any further on this issue, and she didn’t dare to imagine what a terrifying reality it would be if all of this was true!
Ying Yang suppressed his emotions and turned his attention back to the command system.
The human fleet has appeared outside the homeland.
She must warn home worlds everywhere to strengthen their defenses, report any threats immediately, and mobilize fleets for support.
“Yingyang!!!”
The holographic projection appeared in front of Yingyang without any consent.
The Ether elder was angry: "Why didn't you respond to my order before? Do you want to ignore the safety of an Ether?"
Obviously.
The ether elder is still angry that Yingyang did not dispatch the fleet in time to protect his ship.
"Sorry, the command system was in a state of chaos at that time and there was no time to issue orders..."
Yingyang found a reason to explain.
She is busy arranging the defense of some peripheral family worlds, and does not want to continue to be entangled with this guy.
"Hmph, for the sake of the greater good, I will temporarily forgive you this time!"
Elder Aether did not pursue the matter further, but raised a more difficult question.
He looked at Yingyang and issued an order:
"Hurry up and call the fleets from all over to gather here. We will annihilate the barbarian fleet here!"
< br>The human fleet almost caused a noble ether to lose his life and fled in a panic, revealing such an embarrassing scene.
They must be eradicated to wash away these shames!
Now, he is in the safe area of his home world, and there are many fleets in the surrounding star systems that can be mobilized.
As long as you attract the opponent, you can easily destroy them!
Yingyang was shocked by this ridiculous order:
“This is not a wise choice. We should wait for more support to arrive instead of mobilizing the garrison forces of those home worlds! ”
"Are you questioning the wisdom of an ether?"
The blue pupils of the ether elder narrowed sharply, and the anger spread visibly: "This is an order, not a discussion. Do you want me to follow the regulations of the ether parliament? , Relieving you of command?"
Yingyang clenched his fist suddenly.
At this moment, she wanted to kill this idiot like Yuan Yuan.
What a pity.
After the last lesson, the ethers pay more attention to their own safety and generally stay on their own spaceships.
"Your Excellency Elder..."
Yingyang forced out a smile and tried to persuade him to prevent this guy from causing the situation to become even more uncontrollable.
However, Elder Aether interrupted her:
"There is no room for negotiation on this matter. I have exposed the coordinates of the fleet. The enemy fleet will arrive soon. Hurry up and mobilize the fleet to set up an encirclement..."
He firmly believed that his judgment was correct.
The fleets that those home worlds can mobilize are several times that of the enemy, which is enough to completely destroy the enemy fleet that comes!
"This is a wrong decision..."
Yingyang closed her eyes in despair, she realized that the matter was irreversible.
Things went as expected.
The etheric elder directly bypassed the general's command system and sent support instructions to the surrounding homeworld guard fleets.
As an important presence in the Ether Parliament, no one dares to disobey his orders!
Soon. Those worlds responded to the order and sent fleets one after another, preparing to strangle the human fleet.
……
Somewhere in the airspace.
In the void, the wreckage of the Tau Empire’s warships floats everywhere.
A huge fleet crashed away from the burning wreckage and sailed forward slowly.
That is the Redemption Third Fleet.
Conqueror-class battleship, bridge.
Volradi looked at the restrained Aether Commander with a smile on his face.
He patted the other party on the shoulder:
"Brother Vaan, your information is correct. It helped us find the main fleet of the Tau Empire. It has performed well and we will soon be I will let you go..."
The fleet he encountered this time was much stronger than the pirates, and they were able to escape under the full attack of the fleet.
That must be the main force.
Ether Commander Vaan stood there blankly, completely confused.
What exactly did he do?
Due to his wrong judgment, General Yingyang's fleet was almost completely destroyed.
That is one of the main fleets of the Tau Empire!
In response, Waan fell into deep regret.
The human commander named Voladi was so cunning that he even suspected that the other party had a fleet hidden somewhere.
Drip——
The detection device issues a prompt.
A red punctuation point appeared on the star map projection in mid-air.
The scout immediately reported: "Sir, we have found the location of the escaping fleet!"
"Hey, you found it so quickly?"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Volady's mouth.
Waan looked at the solitary and eye-catching dot in the star map, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
He was shouting crazily in his heart:
"Idiot, extremely stupid, which idiot made the decision?!"
In fact, he knew in his heart that this was definitely not a decision made by General Yingyang, but by one of his idiot compatriots.
Those wastes occupy noble bloodlines and are born to occupy high positions. They gain more rights without working hard.
Not like myself.
Even though I have noble blood, I have been working hard to understand the local defense system, important areas, and the composition and command of the fleet.
Become the best among commanders.
He dreams of leaving his own story in the history of the Tau Empire just like those legendary generals.
Unfortunately, bad luck...
After Waan saw the punctuation mark and the area where the punctuation mark was located, he immediately knew what the other party wanted to do.
The high probability is to mobilize the fleet and then set a trap to wait for Volady's fleet to crash into it.
Then carry out encirclement and suppression!
But such a decision is extremely dangerous and will put other worlds into crisis, especially some special worlds.
For example, the world of Keltu Family.
That will put the entire Tau Empire into crisis!
Huh~
Waan restrained his emotions and tried his best not to reveal anything strange.
Although there is little hope.
But he was still looking forward to it in his heart, expecting Voladi to order the fleet to die there.
"Well..."
Volady pinched his chin, seeming to hesitate.
Then, he pointed at the punctuation point and looked at Waan, and asked a question that caught the other person off guard:
"Do you think this place looks like a trap?"
Vaan tried his best to control his voice:
"I don't know."
Volady dug out He took out a huge bolt pistol and played with it in his hand: "You know, and you must answer..."
"I don't see it."
The sound of the bolt pistol being loaded came, and a deep voice came: "I'll give you another chance to answer!"
Wa'an broke into a cold sweat and answered hesitantly:
"I... ...It looks like a trap to me..."
"Correct answer!"
Volady took back his bolt pistol and smiled: "That's quite honest, brother..."
Any commander with a brain would understand that it was a trap, and he would have just used a loudspeaker to shout, "There is a trap here, come quickly!"
I just don’t know which idiot set it up. It’s really puzzling.
Later.
Volady asked another question that made Waan break into a cold sweat: "Guess where I will attack next?"
He pointed to the star map projection. A location that represents the home world of the Tau Empire:
"What do you think of this place?"
The moment he saw the location pointed by the other party, Waan's heart almost stopped beating.
That is the world of Keltu’s family!
Volady looked at the silent Ether Commander and immediately smiled: "Then we'll hit here."
"It's over!"
Vaan closed his eyes in despair.
Volady patted the other party's shoulder and said gratefully:
"Good brother, thanks to you, we have mastered so much information about the Tau Empire..."
The ether commander revealed too much information during several days of continuous interrogation.
Give Volradi an in-depth understanding of the important areas and defense systems of the Tau Empire.
The Tau Empire's defense system is somewhat unusual. They will only leave a small number of defenders on their home world as temporary defense and reconnaissance forces.
Once a foreign enemy invades.
The task of these defenders is to delay as much time as possible, then observe the invaders and send intelligence.
The real defense forces and fleets of the Tau Empire will be stationed somewhere on the mainland.
After receiving the invasion alert, set off from your home base to resist the enemy.
Come back after playing.
That was actually the famous strategy used by Frederick the Great, but the actual effect was: "Trying to take care of both ends, but in the end, neither side was taken care of."
Volady targeted This defense system makes an attack plan.
He asked the Redemption Third Fleet to divide its forces, and a small part of the fleet took the lead to attack another important home world, drawing out the real defense forces of the Tau Empire.
Delay as long as possible.
And he led a large army to attack the Keltu family world of the Tau Empire.
There is a special passage called Naimya Atoll, which can lead directly to the mainland of the Tau Empire.
Under normal circumstances.
There should be many defenders there, and they won’t be easy to defeat.
But looking at the traps set by the enemy, it is very likely that the defenders there will be mobilized to ambush themselves.
Whether the defenders are present or not, it's good to take a look.
You won’t suffer any loss anyway.
Yes, Voladi wants to lead a fleet to attack the homeland of the Tau Empire.
Such a great opportunity, don’t give it a try.
He is sorry for his own conscience!
Voladi has discovered that the Tau Empire fleet is less maneuverable than our fleet.
He could just use this opportunity to make a time difference and use the special passage in Naimya Atoll to reach the core area of the Tau Empire.
"Volady, the commander of our Redemption Third Fleet, is about to attack the Tau planet!"
Volady is quite excited and has no fear at all about breaking into the enemy's lair.
When he was a child.
I have read many stories about the savior raiding the enemy's lair and beheading the evil leader.
For example, "The Revenge of the Savior: Raid on the Evil Laboratory", "The Savior, Killing the Chief of the Chicken Thieves", "The Savior: The Bloody Battle in the Palace of Matila" and so on.
It made his blood boil.
Not to mention.
In the past extreme training.
Volady faced sieges from enemy ships that were several times or even dozens of times larger, and he had long since developed the ability to stand out from tight sieges.
Based on Vaan's intelligence, some of the Tau Empire's native defense forces were also recruited.
Volady is confident of launching a wave in the homeland of the Tau Empire, and then breaking through the siege and running away with minimal losses.
Since he took office as the fleet commander, he has fought against space pirates, human smuggling black ships, alien wandering fleets, etc., without any impressive achievements.
This time.
He wants to create his own brilliant record!
Wait until the fleet used as bait leaves.
Volady issued a new command:
"All preparations for the jump, the target is the galaxy where the Tau Empire's Keltu family world is located!"
Soon.
The entire fleet entered the subspace passage and headed for the Keltu family world.
……
The world of Keltu Family.
Airspace.
Swish swish——
A huge fleet jumped over in a hurry and stayed in the airspace.
That's the Tau Empire's fleet.
Boom!
The wreckage of a battleship fell into the Keltu star under the attraction of gravity, emitting a violent and dazzling explosion.
Inside the bridge.
"No...what kind of mistake did we make..."
Yingyang looked at this scene with a look of despair.
She's late!
After Elder Aether transferred the surrounding garrison to the world of Bok'an's family, he waited for a long time.
No enemy is coming.
After Yingyang sensed the crisis, he immediately alerted other families and worlds.
Sure enough.
One of the worlds was attacked by a human fleet.
Fortunately, the home defense fleet arrived in time, shot down several enemy ships, and expelled them from the galaxy's defense lines.
Protected the security of that important home world.
However.
Yingyang is keenly aware of the crisis.
She has a terrible vision.
That small human fleet is just a bait, and the enemy may have a more terrifying conspiracy.
After.
Shadowyang thought of the passage to the Naimya Atoll, and disobeyed orders and directly led the personal fleet to the world of Keltu's home.
Want to stop the enemy's conspiracy.
However, it was too late.
Yingyang looked at the airspace outside the dome.
Everywhere in front of us were burning shipwrecks, and a large number of Fire Warriors died helplessly in the cold space.
A human fleet destroyed Keltu's defenders at extremely fast speeds!
Not far away.
The Naimya Atoll channel is creating a steady stream of gravity, sucking in the shipwrecks.
Without a doubt.
The human fleet has entered the Naimya Atoll channel!
Yingyang didn't care to ask why, why humans knew the secret of Keltu.
“Enemy attack!!!”
She connected to the local communication as quickly as possible and shouted almost heartbreakingly:
“Human Fleet Passing through Naimya Atoll and about to reach the mainland!”
