Chapter 1128 Surrounding Points for Aid

January 15, 70 Era of Crisis.

The fleet of photosynthetic civilization Perseus withdraws from γ670 Scutum, γ670 Scutum falls, and the fleet of Count Alnis occupies γ670 Scutum.

next day.

The human fleet raided κ161, and destroyed all the synchronous orbital defense turrets, and κ161 fell.

February 1, 70 Era of Crisis.

The fleet of Earl Alnis pursued the Perseus fleet of the photosynthetic civilization, and the battle took place at α225 Scutum.

Two days later, the Mechanical Empire sent a fleet to respond, and Earl Arnis's fleet retreated temporarily.

The fleet of photosynthetic civilization Perseus arrived at α217 Scutum, and successfully fought with the Mechanical Empire to jointly defend the planetary fortress of α217 Scuti.

the same day.

The human fleet raided Kappa 183, and Kappa 183 fell, and the Earl of Alnis' territory was almost completely red.

Every time he heard that the resource star in the spiral arm of the Ruler constellation had fallen, Earl Alnis had to try his best to control his emotions in order to suppress the anger in his heart.

Half a month later.

The Earl of Alnis's fleet and the Duke of Arden's fleet converged and began to besiege the planetary fortress of α217 Scutum, and the final decisive battle was about to begin.

After the two Palesi nobles surrounded the planetary fortress of α217 Scutum, they did not launch a general attack immediately.

Just surround and launch attacks periodically, consuming the combat power and will of the Mechanical Empire fleet and the photosynthetic civilization Perseus fleet.

The two noble fleets blocked all hyperspace nodes around Scutum α217, and almost blocked the fleets of Machine Empire and Photosynthetic Civilization at Scutum α217.

Under such circumstances, the Duke of Arden and the Earl of Arnis knew very well that they didn't need to risk huge battle damage to attack, they just needed to surround them, and the balance of victory would slowly fall to their side.

the reason is simple.

The two fleets of the Machine Empire and the Photosynthetic Civilization were besieged at α217 Scutum, unable to receive outside support.

However, the fleet of the Duke of Arden and the Earl of Arnis,

It is possible to continuously increase the support fleet.

If the Mechanical Empire and the photosynthetic civilization want to support the two fleets that are besieged by Scutum α217, they will inevitably be attacked by the two noble fleets during the support process.

There is an idiom to explain this kind of war strategy, and that is to surround the points and fight for aid.

Even in the space age, some strategies used in the cold weapon age are still effective.

The human fleet and Piggs' Perseus fleet have been in communication, so they clearly know the situation on the battlefield of the α217 Scuti planetary fortress.

"Isn't this just a siege? Looking at it this way, the Mechanical Empire and Piggs are not very good."

On the Shenzhou, in the daily meeting of the military scientific research class, Eve also turned up the allusions of the siege to aid.

"In terms of war, there are some truths. It's true that one way can do everything." Han Youwei nodded, and her tone was quite emotional.

"It's not exactly the same. If it's a war of cold weapon civilization, there are several ways to break through the siege and send reinforcements, but in an interstellar battle, it doesn't work." Lang Xiaonian added shaking his head.

"Tell me."

"According to the siege strategy in the era of cold weapons, there are usually only two types. One is to withdraw before being surrounded; the other is to have reinforcements strong enough to pierce the encirclement..."

When Lang Xiaonian said this, he spread his hands and said, "However, judging from the current situation of the Carbon-based Alliance, it is impossible to do it.

"So, I can only choose the third option, which is to stick to it and see who is exhausted first.

"If it is the era of cold weapons, if the side that can't hold on, as long as it can keep on defending, there is a chance that the attacking side will retreat.

"Because, in the era of cold weapons, the offensive side consumes more materials and has greater logistical pressure.

"The defender usually only needs to defend the city, and the attacker must pay attention to every pass in the encirclement, and the consumption is several times that of the defender.

"In space battles, however, things are a little different.

"In the standardized warfare of advanced civilizations, each warship can be self-sufficient, so the resource consumption of both sides is almost the same.

"The only thing the attacker needs to worry about is the consumption of energy, but it can be replenished by collecting antimatter and stellar energy.

"So once a space battle enters a stalemate, the stalemate is likely to be measured in years, or even decades."

Eve wiped out all the new MEKA blueprints she had just drawn, and turned around and asked, "Should we cooperate with the Machinery Empire fleet and launch a surprise attack on the fleet of Duke Arden and Earl Arnis from the side?"

"What are you going to do? Looking for death? There are more than a hundred warships in the planetary fortress battlefield of α217 Scutum. Our small broken ship sank in the blink of an eye." Fang Yuan also planned to enter the frontal battlefield.

The frontal battlefield of α217 Scutum is the scene of battleships confronting each other. A giant cannon bombards the past. Unless they are also battleships, other destroyers will sink immediately.

"How about we go and attack the lair of the Duke of Arden?" Eve began to think about that kind of desperate thing again.

"This is even more unacceptable. We were able to destroy Alnis Star not because we were strong and invincible. It was because Earl Alnis was killed by us because he sent a support fleet before, and he almost came out in anger. As a result, the defense of Alnis star was weak, so we succeeded..."

Zhao Anya shook her finger and immediately denied this idea: "Duke Arden is different, his home is in the Perseus spiral arm, which is the star field with the densest resource stars and the highest mineral deposit level in the Milky Way.

"The Duke of Adun's strength is also the most powerful nobleman in the Galaxy Far Star Empire.

"He didn't come out with all his strength. The defense force left in the Zro star field in Perseus is enough to resist the attack of any fleet in the Carbon-based Alliance."

"Then what are we doing now? Earl Alnis's territory has been smashed by us, and this guy really has no intention of coming back." Eve propped her chin with her hands, with a dull expression.

During these two months.

The human fleet has visited all the resource stars in the Earl of Alnis, and it can be said that the Earl of Alnis has been destroyed.

"This can only show that the other two nobles of Palesai promised Earl Alnis a huge profit, which is enough to make up for his loss." Fang Yuan said.

In the past two months, the human fleet has plundered much more resources than the sum of the resources it has seen before.

After all, Earl Alnis is an aristocrat of the Palesi Galaxy Far Star Empire, and the resource stars in the territory have abundant resources.

It is impossible for humans to occupy these resource stars for a long time, so it is a bit unscrupulous to plunder.

Using the resources of the entire Zro Xingyuan mining area to support a fleet, one can imagine how fat this "ghost fleet" of human beings is now.

"Since we can't attack Duke Arden's lair, what are we going to do next?" Eve asked bored.

"The staff team has extracted some useful information from the data collected on Alnis, one of which is about the relics of a certain ancient battlefield. From the intelligence point of view, the 'photon transition' transported by the Palesi transport fleet, The three abilities of 'Spirit of the God of War' and 'Nuclear Material Fusion' were discovered from the ruins of this ancient battlefield..."

Fang Yuan called out a piece of information, and said with deep eyes: "Maybe we can go to the ruins of the ancient battlefield."
