Forty-six The 2nd Asteroid Belt War (8)
The Asteroid Belt of the Solar System, Region 016.
When the last battleship of the Ox Empire was sunk, the entire void was filled with the wreckage of the battleship.
Until the last moment, none of the battleships in the Aux Empire's fleet had signaled their surrender, which made Lin Fan have to sigh about the tenacity of his fighting will!
Throughout the campaign, the main force of the Fourth Fleet lost a total of 3,800 warships in the early hours, and 500 warships in the latter part of the attack on Cody's fleet.
Lin Fan's 101 fleet lost 27 battleships when intercepting Duolun in the early 027 area, and lost 31 battleships when they attacked the Cody fleet in the later stage.
Finally, there are other reinforcement fleets. In the early stage, only a few battleships were lightly injured in the 027 area, and a total of 528 battleships were lost when they attacked the Cody fleet in the later stage.
After calculation, the battle losses of the entire Fourth Fleet were 4,886 battleships and 3,617 mechas. As for personnel losses, it was impossible to calculate accurately until the battlefield was cleaned up.
As for the fleet loss of the Oaks Empire, it was 30,000 battleships, plus the Doron Nine Princes.
"Lin Fan, you did a good job, but there is still a big problem waiting for us!"
"I understand, Adams' follow-up fleet!"
"Well, yes, it is expected to have a scale of 90,000 battleships. Today, there are less than 15,000 battleships on our side that can maintain combat effectiveness. The situation is still not optimistic!"
"Commander, how did they pass through the asteroid belt without us being detected, do you understand?"
"Your father has captured key members of the Scott family who have successfully taken control of some probes in our asteroid belt and sent us false information."
"What's Scott's reason for doing this? I don't see any benefit."
"This matter started many years ago. Back then, Wood was the captain of a battle cruiser of the Second Fleet. When the defense line of the Proximal Way was defeated, he was ordered to join the broken fleet to cover the remaining 2,000 people. warships evacuated.
Seven years ago, when everyone thought he died in the neighborhood, the battle cruiser he commanded returned to the solar system through the way of the stars. Of course, when he came back, nothing on the battle cruiser was intact, only He can barely sail, plus he has meticulously described a storyline of how to fight off the line, and no one doubts it.
Now that I think about it, he and his crew should have been captured at that time, and then deliberately put back as an internal response. Now this part of the crew, whether on Earth or in the Mars base, has all been controlled.
As for the Scott family, your father has confirmed that they did not know about it, and it was just something that Wood took advantage of the power desire of his family owner and did it without his knowledge. "
"So that's the case, then we can now know the route of Adams' follow-up fleet?"
"Yes, look!"
Liang Xingchen directly sent Lin Fan the star map of the asteroid, with a distorted red line drawn in the middle.
"Commander, then our best way is to go deep into the asteroid and find a suitable point on this route to ambush!"
"That's right, this is also my idea. The key is to choose which point and how to ambushed? You must know that Adams was ambushed by me once 7 years ago, and now he must be very careful to advance, and it is not so easy to catch his flaws. !"
"Commander, do you remember the trick I used to simulate a battle with you at the graduation ceremony?"
"You mean?"
"Yes, but we can be flexible about the tactics, we just... and..."
Three minutes later, Liang Xingchen's eyes widened.
He was also quite shocked by the tactics Lin Fan said. If successful, it would definitely be the most classic tactics in human history.
"Okay, just follow the tactics you said,
The reinforcement fleet is still under your command for the time being and is in charge of the left wing of the fleet! "
"Yes!"
After the two discussed some details again, they ended the communication and began to prepare according to the plan.
An hour later, after cleaning the battlefield, recovering a large number of escape bins, and collecting many remains that could be found, the Fourth Fleet's remaining about 14,000 battleships with good combat effectiveness set off toward the depths of the asteroid belt.
Beyond 6.2AU, the 90,000 battleships of the Oaks Empire's follow-up fleet are traveling in the asteroid belt.
At this moment, Adams has a very complicated mood.
Just over an hour ago, he received a farewell communication from Cody, and was informed that Prince Doron was dead and the vanguard fleet was about to be wiped out.
The brilliant plan that was thought to be foolproof had unexpected deviations, especially Doron's death, which meant that the entire Guards 3rd Legion might have to be buried with him.
The soldiers of the Oaks Empire are very proud. You let them die on the battlefield. There is absolutely nothing to say. Just like Cody's vanguard fleet, no one will surrender until the last one.
But if they were told that they were about to be executed by the emperor, instead of being honorably killed in battle, the nature would be completely different, and a mutiny would most likely occur.
The only way is to defeat Liang Xingchen's Fourth Fleet, and then take down the entire human race. With this kind of credit, maybe he can intercede with His Majesty, execute himself alone, and pardon the rest of the guards of the Third Army.
Therefore, Adams did not tell others about Doron's death. He knew very well that once the news spread, let alone the following battle, even if the fleet did not mutiny, morale would definitely drop to freezing point.
Oaks' fleet is still advancing according to the established route, and the fourth federal fleet has also entered the depths of the asteroid belt, and the entire asteroid belt is unusually quiet.
Until the third day, the two sides finally met.
"Led by Adams, a human fleet has been discovered ahead, with a number of about 15,000!"
"Um?"
Adams touched his chin with an incredible expression on his face!
Cody did say in his final report that about 5,000 human battleships were sunk, and the remaining battleships should be about 15,000, but the question is what is Liang Xingchen doing?
Use the last force to confront my 90,000 warships head-on? Shouldn't he be the kind of person who seeks his own death? "
Or is it just a coincidence that the two sides just met face-to-face?
Over the years, Adams has also obtained a lot of human intelligence from Wood.
In the battle of the asteroid belt seven years ago, although Liang Xingchen's ambush caused Adams to lose 80,000 battleships, the loss of the Federal Fleet itself was definitely not small. After the war, the Fourth Fleet only had 12,000 battleships left.
And in the past 7 years, because humans have been blocked in the asteroid belt, resources are limited, and it is impossible to manufacture warships on a large scale.
Therefore, it took seven years to restore the Fourth Fleet's establishment, and there were not many redundant warships.
No matter from which point of view, the opposite should be the last fleet of mankind. This situation can only be explained by coincidence. It seems that mankind is doomed to perish.
"Order the fleet to move forward and directly defeat the last resistance force of mankind!"
"Yes, Commander Adams!"
