Chapter 1080: Battle of Stoke (XVI)
Avila Fleet.
The full complement consists of 300.1 billion warships, of which 300 billion are conventional imperial warships, and the remaining 100 million are punishment-class warships, also commonly known as suicide ships.
After several minutes of attack and defense at the entrance of the channel, as well as the warships lost in the federal attack just now, there are now about 240 billion conventional warships left, and about 90 million punishment-class warships.
"Really? There are still more than 90 million ships, so the number is enough!"
"After all, according to those scientists, as long as there are about 700 billion self-destruct ships, the minimum standard for triggering a black cavity tide can be reached!"
After listening to the adjutant's report, Avila nodded and said, with no expression on his face, as if he was indifferent to life and death.
"Order the warships outside the array to break away from the array layer by layer and launch a desperate attack on the enemy to buy some time for the rear!"
"At the same time, order all Punishment-class battleships to prepare for the compression of black cavity energy and wait for orders!"
"Remember, these are all Punishment-class battleships!"
After the order was given, Avila added another sentence.
After all, if there were just the right number of Punishment-class battleships, then if someone got afraid and didn't execute the plan, or if the scientists made a mistake in calculation, there wouldn't be enough battleships for a second attempt!
Therefore, now that you have done it, do it thoroughly and never leave any possibility that may lead to failure!
"Yes, Commander!"
When the adjutant left, Avila sat in the command chair with a dazed look in his eyes.
He was not afraid of death, but he was really thinking, even if he won the battle, what would it matter?
Is it that the other side only has this one legion?
And next time.
Without his own punitive fleet, who else could pave the way to victory for the Third Guards Corps?
And there are the beasts from the Tyro Empire. The Third Guards Corps has left the Dorando area for a long time. Even the Royal Guard Fleet sent by His Majesty to replace them will not arrive there until decades later.
Even if he sacrificed his entire fleet and finally let the Third Guards Corps win,
No matter how you think about it, the situation of the Third Guards Corps is still not good. If there is a problem in the Dolando area again, the entire empire will be in danger of destruction.
I am dead.
Does it really make sense?
"Commander, all punishment-class battleships are ready!"
Just as Avila was daydreaming, the adjutant's voice rang out, pulling him back from his trance.
Well, why think about those things? There is no point at all!
There is only one thing that matters right now,
Ensure the smooth progress of disciplinary trials!
“Let’s get started!”
"Yes, Commander!"
When Avila's order came down, the entire fleet went crazy, just like peeling an apple. Outside the array, the fleets kept breaking away layer by layer.
Even if a collision occurred, or even a tragic chain collision, they still didn't care. After breaking away from the formation, they rushed towards the federal fleet while firing madly.
Just now, their commander has issued the order for punitive judgment. Maybe others don’t know about it, but how could they, the people in the punitive fleet, not know what punitive judgment is?
In other words.
In a minute at most, none of them would survive.
If this is the case, then what is there to be afraid of in death?
and
When I joined this fleet, didn't I already know that this day would come sooner or later?
So, they went crazy, completely disregarding everything and simply unleashing firepower, rushing towards the federal fleet like wild beasts.
But in the face of the defense line formed by one trillion federal warships, their actions are ultimately futile.
Although it is futile, it is not meaningless!
After all, in order to intercept their oncoming fleet, the fleet on the federal defense line had to mobilize a large amount of firepower for interception, and was unable to concentrate all the firepower on the main fleet of Avila.
And this, this buys Avila more time!
At the same time, inside the bridge of the Federation Fleet’s flagship, the Hongmeng battleship.
"Their reaction is a bit abnormal!"
"Perhaps you see no hope, so you want to use this method to disperse our firepower in the hope of holding out for longer?"
Hearing Lin Fan's sudden mumbling, Liang Xue, the adjutant at the side, spoke up.
"No, if it was just for that purpose, then these outer warships should have scattered after leaving the formation, instead of rushing towards the fleet on the defense line!"
"After all, when they rush towards the fleet on the defense line, the federal fleet in front of them can still extend its firepower to the main fleet array in the rear while attacking them."
"In this way, although we can disperse some of our firepower, we can't disperse it completely, right?"
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Fan spoke up, refuting Liang Xue's statement.
"Indeed, from this perspective, their behavior is indeed a bit strange, but if it is deliberate, then the ultimate goal is to buy time?"
"And, just to buy a very short period of time?"
Nodding, Liang Xue followed Lin Fan's thoughts and analyzed.
However, if this is true, then what exactly are they planning to do? After all, this won’t buy much time!
It would probably only take a few minutes at most. Once the federal fleet had completely adjusted its firepower deployment and made targeted tactics, their current actions would become meaningless.
Could it be that they think that this simple method is sufficient to send some suicide-destruction ships to a position that can pose a threat to the federal fleet within a few minutes?
"Quick, check immediately to see if there are any self-destruct ships among the warships that broke away from the formation and rushed over just now!"
"Yes, Marshal!"
After receiving the order, Liang Xue immediately started to operate and soon got the results.
"Marshal, no, from now on, all the warships that attacked our defense line were just ordinary standard warships, and there were no suicide ships!"
"Notify Wang Hai and have the Civilization Guardian Squadron go all out. Don't worry about those ordinary warships. Just do your best to kill those self-destructing ships. Also, mobilize all the top dark energy users to cooperate with Wang Hai and his men!"
"Yes, Marshal!"
Looking at Lin Fan's serious expression, Liang Xue also knew that the problem might be a little serious.
The order was immediately issued, and then
"Marshal, do you know what they are going to do?"
"No, I don't know!"
"That"
Liang Xue tilted her head. Could it be that she guessed wrong?
"Although I don't know what they are going to do, it must be related to those suicide ships!"
"Don't underestimate any god-level civilization. All threats must be nipped in the bud!"
"So, even if those suicide ships are in the rear, they are preparing for vacation."
"We can't let them succeed!"
