Chapter 17 Strange War
Waiting for the time to start the war is undoubtedly exciting.
Yun Yi sat in the cockpit and waited boringly. His heart was always like a cat scratching. Even if there was Sial fast mink skin under his buttocks, it could not make him feel comfortable and peaceful.
After thinking about it, Yunyi opened his wrist light brain and sent a message to Xu Tianyuan.
is about to enter the battlefield. Xu Tianyuan, as the chief of staff of the fleet, is busy and has no time to contact Yunyi.
"Boss, I'm so busy here. Why did you send a newsletter at this time?"
Yun Yi smiled and said, "Isn't it boring? Send me a copy of the battlefield situation or something. I'll also find something to do."
Battle situation data and so on are absolutely confidential for non-command personnel, but Yunyi is obviously not included. Xu Tianyuan knows very well that Yunyi is definitely above him in terms of tactical vision. If you send him this information, you may be able to find something from it that you haven't noticed. So I was very happy to send him the information and let him inform him as soon as he found something.
At the same time, he also assigned a data terminal of the flagship light brain to Yunyi, so that he can check the latest situation through the flagship light brain.
Entering the data into the light brain of Yi Yu, Yun Yi quickly analyzed it.
This light brain is Schubert*, the boss of Cloud Wing and Tomorrow Technology. It uses the latest technology. Although it is not as good as the flagship light brain, it is also out of reach compared with ordinary large warships. Analyzing this information will not waste too much time.
In this way, Yunyi finally found something to do for himself, so that it would not be too boring.
The four fleets formed an umbrella-shaped formation and slowly marched towards the battlefield. The gap between the fleets can be seen just from the marching queue.
The best among them is, of course, the 21st Fleet. This fleet, which came from Chu and Tang and has experienced hundreds of battles, maintains strict discipline and formation even in a foreign country. The distance between ships and ships is extremely small. Although this is due to the control of the flagship light brain, it is also necessary to train hard with the soldiers.
Secondly, it is the 3rd Fleet located at the cutting edge of the parachute formation.
At the beginning of the attack of the Iseras army, the 3rd Fleet had been in a state of war and was repeatedly defeated. At the most tragic time, there were only less than one-third of the warships left. However, compared with those defeated or surrendered fleets, it is good for the 3rd Fleet to retain so many warships and withdraw to the rear of the Federation. After the defeat, the new commander Dravis paid close attention to training, and now he has begun to see results. The march is orderly and moderate. Although it is not as neat as the 21st Fleet, it can also be inseparable and relaxed.
The 11th and 16th fleets obviously don't get along well with the other two fleets.
The fleet is marching sparsely, and the gap between the warship and the warship is huge, just like sprinkling a handful of soybeans in space. Seeing this, the commanders of the two fleets did not want to be too humiliated and tried to restrain their warship captains. Unfortunately, because of the lack of training, no matter how much the two commanders scold, they can't change this fact.
Looking at this formation, Yun Yi couldn't help sneering. The quality of the 11 and 16 fleets can be seen from this. If there is a fight, I believe the enemy can also see this situation. The 16th Fleet is responsible for rear support, but nothing. But the 11th Fleet is responsible for the left wing and above. If it is captured by the enemy and attacked in this position, the whole wing may be defeated.
After thinking about it, Yun Yi sent this discovery and his suggestion to Xu Tianyuan.
In addition to Yunyi, Dravis and Lin Yiqing also saw this problem.
If the whole team is a shield, the piece responsible for the 11th Fleet is already like rotten wood. If the opportunity is seized by the opponent, it will directly cause chaos for the whole team. However, it is not about the training of the fleet that can be changed by a few scolding for a while.
The 11 fleet is already the weakness of the whole squadron. A little carelessness will involve the two fleets of the striker and the right wing.
Just as Lin Yiqing was having a headache, he received the report sent to him by Xu Tianyuan. After scanning it, Lin Yiqing smiled helplessly and said to himself, "It seems that this is the only way. I hope the flagship light brain can calculate it."
The method produced by Yunyi is not complicated. In order to prevent the enemy from launching an attack on the 11th Fleet, Yunyi proposed to disperse the 21st Fleet. In this way, except for the 3rd Fleet of the forward forward, the other fleets are scattered, and the enemy will not specifically grasp the 11th Fleet. .
However, it is not very complicated for the flagship light brain to make the fleet fly neatly. However, if you want the fleet to look scattered without affecting the overall speed and attack power of the fleet, you must calculate the position of each warship in detail, and the captain of the warship must drive accurately. If you are not careful, the main gun of the rear warship may hit the warship in front of you.
This arrangement, even if it is the 21st Fleet, is a great test.
Lin Yiqing was still very confident in his fleet and quickly issued the order. After the preliminary calculation of the flagship light brain, the coordinates of each warship will be announced. The 21st Fleet is worthy of being a well-trained high-quality fleet. Under the efforts of these captains, they have reached the position designated by the light brain.
When the changes of the 21st Fleet were seen by several other commanders, they all thought differently.
Like the commanders of the 11th Fleet and the 16th Fleet, they both laughed and disdained. In their view, the 21st Fleet can only maintain a neat formation for more than ten minutes at the beginning, but now it has not become the same as them.
After seeing it, Dreves began to think that the 21st Fleet could not control the formation, but then he keenly discovered the mystery. Although the 21st Fleet is very scattered, it is not chaotic. Unlike the 11th Fleet, the distance between ships is not constantly changing, but remains constant. This made Dravis sigh and was glad that Lin Yiqing helped him solve this trouble.
Dreves is more confident about this battle.
After more than ten minutes of slow flight, the warship's optical detection equipment has found traces of the enemy. The whole 50,000 warships were vastly lined up in the shape of spindles and murderous. Judging from the shape of the opponent's battle fleet alone, it can be seen that the soldiers on the side of Iselas are well trained. Although they are not as good as the initial neat and shaping of the 21st Fleet, they are also a little better than the 3rd Fleet.
"Attention to all fleets, slow down by half and prepare for battle!"
With Dravis' order, the speed of the Federal Fleet suddenly slowed down. The main gun ports of each warship were opened, the ejection channels of the mecha and fighters were opened, and all weapons began to be charged.
The battle is on the verge of breaking out.
However, just as all the officers and soldiers of the Federal Fleet were absorbed and waiting for the battle to begin, the speed of the opposite Iseras fleet also slowed down. Beyond the range of 1.5 times the main gun, it actually stopped. Of course, the Iseras fleet also opened the main gun and passage and put on a combat posture.
"What's going on?" Everyone is a little confused.
According to the general battle, when the two fleets want to exchange fire, they must open their weapons outside the range, charge them, calculate the time, and immediately launch an attack when the enemy enters the range of the main gun, and increase their speed to advance, releasing mecha and fighters at the same time.
But now, the Iseras fleet has stopped outside range, which is completely different from the brave Iseras military style in the past.
Is there any conspiracy?
Dreys did not dare to take risks and chose to stop the fleet and send electronic reconnaissance ships around to further investigate the battlefield situation.
Time passed minute by, and the information sent back by electronic reconnaissance ships in all directions showed that there was no ambushing by the enemy nearby. Soon, half an hour passed, and some analysts, such as Yunyi, Xu Tianyuan, etc., had smelled something wrong.
Suddenly, Yunyi thought of a possibility and was shocked without any hesitation. He sent a message directly to Lin Yiqing, the commander of the fleet, asking for dialogue.
Huh? Communication from Yunyi? At this time, what did he send a message to sit on? Lin Yiqing was deduce and calculating with a group of staff at this time. He didn't want to be disturbed by others. When he was about to close it, Xu Tianyuan beside him heard it and immediately asked, "Commander, is it a communication from Yunyi?"
Lin Yiqing nodded, turned off the communicator, looked at the three-dimensional image of the battlefield, and muttered, "What on earth is the Yi army doing this for? Is it waiting for some kind of backup? Chief of Staff Xu, what do you think?
Seeing that Lin Yiqing turned off the communicator, Xu Tianyuan was very anxious. In terms of virtual confrontation, others don't know that he is not as good as Yunyi, so Lin Yiqing doesn't know Yunyi's strategic and tactical vision. In this way, Yunyi will directly contact the commander, obviously finding extremely important clues, but unfortunately...
Thinking of this, Xu Tianyuan immediately opened the communicator and contacted Yunyi.
Lin Yiqing just asked Xu Tianyuan and saw him fiddling with the communicator on his wrist. He was immediately unhappy: "Mr. Xu, this is during the war. Don't do anything personal. No matter what happens, you can do it after the battle..."
Xu Tianyuan didn't have time to talk to Lin Yiqing at all, and the communication was immediately connected. He whispered, "Boss, have you found anything?"
A rapid voice came from the communicator: "The 20th Fleet has not come back yet. I suspect that the enemy in front of us is just to contain us, and the enemy's real main attack is Jinchaokou! The 20 fleet must have found something and didn't come. Presumably they have gone straight to Jinchaokou..."
"What!" Xu Tianyuan and Lin Yiqing standing next to him shouted at the same time.
According to the previous plan, the 20th Fleet will arrive within 15 to 20 minutes after the start of the war between the two sides, but now it has been 30 minutes and has not arrived yet. Obviously, something happened.
And the most likely thing is that Jinchaokou was raided.
There was something wrong with Lin Yiqing's face. He walked back and forth a few steps and said, "This statement is not impossible, but even if Commander Yang goes to Jinchaokou, he should send a communication boat to inform us."
Xu Tianyuan was stunned. Although the Mi's particles on the battlefield were unable to communicate at long distances, they generally used communication boats to transmit information. The speed of the communication boat is much faster than that of the fleet. If there was any news, it should have been delivered long ago.
It's not just the two of them, but several of the staff officers next to them are thinking about this issue.
Suddenly, a staff officer raised his hand and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Commander, after the departure of the fleet, several warships of the 16th Fleet had broken down and stayed on the road. Could it be..."
"The enemy's inner response?" Xu Tianyuan shouted fiercely, and for a moment, he quickly thought of the federal fleet that was bought by Iseras at the beginning of the war and surrendered. The Federation is rotten, and the officers who have been bought are by no means a small number. If those warships pretend to be faulty and stay dedicated to blocking communication boats...
Lin Yiqing immediately thought of the key, his face was gloomy, and he shouted, "Contact Deputy Commander-in-Chief Dravis immediately!"
