Chapter 1476 Advance! Go Ahead!
However, under the leadership of Dugujue, the Beifeihu Empire directly launched a violent attack. The beginning of the war is the pinnacle.
Although the Longyuan Empire had been prepared for a long time, it was still somewhat stretched in the face of the full-scale attack of the Beifeihu Empire.
In fact, the Blue Star Group adopted a strategy similar to Tian Ji's horse racing strategy in its offensive and defensive strategy on the northern front.
First of all, use the strength of the Minghui Empire and the partial support of the Blue Star Group to contain the legions of the Tianshui Empire, especially the reinforcements from various countries.
Then, concentrate the superior forces to open up a second battlefield here in the Beifeihu Empire.
Because the Longyuan Empire supported part of the army to the Tianshui Empire, the already weak country became more and more stretched in terms of military strength.
So here comes the question, doesn't the Longyuan Empire know that it is small? Why send troops to support the Tianshui Empire?
It's simple, it's caused by greed! Tianshui Empire drew a big cake, a golden cake studded with diamonds!
Also, countries that come from the Sanyuan area always feel that they are unambiguous. And it was true in the past. The density of stars in the Sanyuan area is higher, the resources are more abundant and of high quality, there are more masters of practice, and the foundation of practice is more solid.
But... But with the development of time, the situation in the Sanyuan area has actually changed. But the practitioners in the Sanyuan area didn't realize it.
With the development of time, the population has increased, and resources have actually been divided. In particular, a large amount of mineral resources are non-renewable resources. After years of consumption, the resources have long been exhausted.
There are also resources such as spirit stones for practice, which are only available on transformed life planets, but the life planets that can be transformed in the Sanyuan area have actually reached their peak, and they have begun to go away in these years, or in recent hundreds of thousands of years. downhill.
There are fewer and fewer planets with terraforming potential. However, the "life" of the transformed life planet is only hundreds of thousands or millions of years old. So much so that the living planet has become a consumable.
As the cores of the early modified life planets gradually cooled, life planets were abandoned one by one.
Perhaps the density of stars in the Sanyuan area is indeed high, but in terms of the overall level of the current livable living environment, it may not be as good as the up-and-coming Minghui Empire, Yujing Empire and other peripheral empires.
Not to mention that the Blue Star Group doesn't modify planets now, and everyone directly transforms stars. Although it has only been a few years, the effect has already been initially revealed.
Transforming planets gets aura, and cultivates low-level practitioners; but transforming stars obtains the power of stars, and cultivates high-level practitioners.
The construction of the military well constellation has ferociously incubated a large number of middle and high-level practitioners who have reached the critical point.
This is also an important reason why the Blue Star Group launched the war so simply. Catalyzed by Dayang Group's technology, the development potential of Bluestar Group is constantly improving; on the contrary, the development potential of Sanyuan District is constantly declining.
As soon as the war started, the Longyuan Empire paid the price for its arrogance. The fleet of the Northern Flying Tiger Empire has all been replaced with new weapons - rail guns, and particle cannons enhanced by science and technology.
Coupled with a brand new communication system and reconnaissance system, the war command will be faster. Ships with new engines are more flexible. Coupled with the guidance of the blitzkrieg thought, Dugujue carried out a "super mobile operation" on the battlefield that was unimaginable in the past.
Taking advantage of the superior power, powerful defense, and berserk attack of the warship, the warship launched an attack from millions of kilometers, 30 to 50 million kilometers, or even hundreds of millions of kilometers away. Then it passed directly by the enemy fleet without stopping.
The fleet of Longyuan Empire still wants to conduct 'close-range mutual fire' attacks as it did in the past, close to three million kilometers, or even a million kilometers; and then send masters to carry out a 'board battle'. But suddenly found that it was impossible to get close at all.
The Longyuan Empire also wanted to send experts to make a long-range raid, but the experts who were separated from the fleet's assistance, even if they could catch up with the Beifeihu Empire's fleet, they still faced the dilemma of fighting alone. Not to mention, the Northern Flying Tiger Empire killed not only masters, but masters armed with mechas and battle armors.
In the case that the cultivation bases of the two sides are almost the same, the one armed to the teeth is obviously stronger. Not to mention there are battleships nearby to support them.
Within half a month of fighting, the first line of defense of Longyuan Empire collapsed.
The Northern Flying Tiger Empire did not pursue the victory. Because Dugu Jue was stunned by this 'easy' victory.
Brand-new technologies, brand-new weapons, brand-new strategic thinking, a brand-new military merit reward system, and masters armed to the teeth have brought about a complete change in the Northern Flying Tiger Imperial Fleet.
Of course, such a victory was achieved because the Longyuan Empire was so arrogant that it launched a positional battle with the Beifeihu Empire; while the Tianshui Empire was much smarter, using the vast starry sky to dilute the military power of the Minghui Empire.
The Longyuan Empire retreated, and its commander slowly realized that his strategic thinking was wrong. It also sends a distress signal to the rear.
Dugu never attacked again, and was still summing up the war; his fundamental purpose was to attract attention and provide opportunities for Dugu Junjie, the distant family.
But it is said that Dugu Junjie led a huge fleet of more than one billion warships and more than 200,000 super monsters, and started the journey of "not taking the usual path".
The starry sky is vast, and there is no upper and lower limit like the ground. In theory, you can run around in the starry sky. Just don't get too close to neutron stars, black holes, unstable supernovae, and other extreme objects.
But in reality, because of issues such as efficiency, energy, and time, whether it is business or war, everyone generally focuses on a fixed range.
For example, in the positions of the Beifeihu Empire and the Yongyuan Empire, the "thickness" of the galaxy exceeds 1700 light-years, not counting the sparse starry sky and the thin nebula range.
The diameter of the territory of the Northern Flying Tiger Empire is about 700 light-years, but the scope of influence, including dependent countries, etc., is more than 3,000 light-years away in the horizontal direction (east-west direction, galaxy circle direction) and vertical direction (north-south direction, galaxy radiation direction), Vertically (up and down, that is, the thickness of the galaxy) is 1700 total light-years.
The diameter of the core territory of Longyuan Empire is about 330 light-years, and the scope of influence is also relatively small. Regardless of whether it is horizontal or vertical, the scope of influence is within 1700 light-years. However, the Longyuan Empire is closer to the core of the galaxy, and its "vertical" thickness has increased slightly.
Of course, considering that the closer to the core of the galaxy, the denser the stars, so although the "volume" of the Longyuan Empire is less than one-seventh of that of the Northern Flying Tiger Empire, the number of stars is almost half of that of the Northern Flying Tiger Empire.
As for the fronts of the Northern Flying Tiger Empire and the Longyuan Empire, they are mainly concentrated within a range of 400 light-years horizontally and 200 light-years vertically. Vertically, everyone is fighting for positions.
War is all about efficiency. It is certainly possible to go around in circles, but it takes more time. Maybe during the time you circled, people have already completed the sneak attack and returned, and those who are more efficient may have already ambushed halfway.
Moreover, long-distance detours, difficult communication, and slow response are all taboos on the battlefield.
Therefore, whether it is the Beifeihu Empire or the Longyuan Empire, outside the scope of the core battlefield, there is only simple vigilance, nothing more.
To make an image metaphor, it is equivalent to sea, land and air battles. The core decisive battles are all on the ground, on the sea surface at a depth of 300 meters and above, and in the sky below 10 kilometers.
For the altitude above 10 kilometers, there are only a few satellites; there are only a few scientific probes below 300 meters above the sea surface. These places are not considered the core areas of traditional battles.
But the Longyuan Empire did not expect that Dugu Junjie was taking this path at this time.
The fleet led by Dugu Junjie first flew thousands of light-years vertically (vertically) to the outer reaches of the galaxy under the cover of the Beifeihu Empire, completely exceeding the thickness of the galaxy. Then it flew vertically towards the imperial capital of Longyuan Empire.
The imperial capital of the Longyuan Empire is located in a star official called 'Tianhuang'. The star density of this star official is even higher than that of the "Pleiades star cluster" where the imperial capital of the Minghui Empire is located.
The scope of the Pleiades star cluster is about 20 light-years, and there are more than 3,000 star systems; while the area of the Tianhuang star cluster is about 26 light-years, and there are as many as 12,000 star systems!
The imperial capital of the Longyuan Empire is the 'Linhuang Mansion'. Half of the prosperity of the entire Longyuan Empire is located in Tianhuang Xingguan. As long as the Tianhuang Xingguan can be disturbed, the entire Longyuan Empire will basically be paralyzed.
However, due to the scope of influence, the distance from the outermost defense line of the Beifeihu Empire to Linhuang Mansion still exceeds thousands of light-years.
In the past, it was very difficult to travel across thousands of light-years in other countries. Moreover, thousands of light-years are a straight-line distance, and it is obviously impossible to walk in a straight line during the actual march.
It's not that no one has thought of sneak attacking like Dugu Junjie. However, ultra-long-range sneak attacks have extremely high requirements on the fleet, and they still have to enter the galaxy in the final stage. As an empire, it is impossible to be defenseless against the imperial capital.
In fact, the existence of the "star official" itself is a "formation", which belongs to a core "component" of the Zhoutian Great Formation.
Even if you arrive at the 'directly above' the imperial capital of Longyuan Empire, if you want to dive in, you still need to travel at least 700 light-years away.
That is to say, if you fly more from the outer space, the distance will almost double, but in the final surprise attack, you can only offset the advantage of about 300 light years.
This makes it obvious: the cost increases significantly, but the effect is not obvious.
On the contrary, a long-distance sneak attack will reduce the overall combat effectiveness of the fleet. Especially the traditional fleet, generally pay attention to "1+3": an elite fleet carries three ordinary fleets. It's almost like this composition. Such a fleet structure is not conducive to long-range raids. And large-scale fleet transfers generally cannot escape the eyes of spies.
But all kinds of difficulties in the past have been overcome one by one with the advancement of technology.
The combined fleet led by Dugu Junjie is only elite!
At this time, following Dugu Junjie's order, a fleet of hundreds of millions launched an unprecedented raid in the vast and dark starry sky.
