Vol 4 Chapter 1248: Can you not be so embarrassed?

The third autumn of Crisis Age 73.
The earth has entered the season of autumn harvest, which is a season that people love.
However, outside the alpha 217 Scutum star system, which is 20,000 light-years away, you can't feel the rich atmosphere.
Some are just murderous intentions of beasts patrolling their prey.
The human fleet orbits the fortress of the planet α217 Scuti within 1000 light seconds, like a beast ready to kill its prey at any time.
The Duke of Arden and the Earl of Arnis, and their fleet, are like prey hiding in a cage, not daring to extend their claws out of the cage.
In fact, this situation is very delicate.
Because just looking at the data, the two fleets of the Duke of Arden and the Earl of Arnis are stronger on paper than the human fleet, and they are much stronger.
"This feeling, why is it so like a mouse preparing to culminate an elephant?" Niu Dazhi felt that this situation was unreasonable, and couldn't help but complain in front of the military scientific research classmates.
"Yes, you are right. In Animal Chess, mice are specially designed to kill elephants. There is nothing wrong with them." Eve followed his words and went back.
Both of them seemed to make a lot of sense.
that's the truth.
The Duke of Arden's fleet is much stronger on paper than the human fleet, and with the addition of Earl Arnis, even if the human fleet plus the three fleets of the Carbon-based Alliance, it is still a lot worse.
However, this strange situation has now formed.
The human fleet was patrolling outside the planetary fortress of α217 in the Shield, and the Duke of Arden was hiding in the planetary fortress.
Just looking at the paper data, it is indeed like a mouse preparing to hunt an elephant.
"But our paper data is really much weaker than Duke Biedon." Niu Dazhi felt a little guilty in his heart, thinking, what if Duke Arden suddenly rushed out?
"If it weren't for the paper data gap, I would patrol in 1000 light seconds? I rushed into the defensive restricted area." Eve raised his hand and pointed to the direction of the α217 Scutum fortress. Dare to rush up to the posture.
The key point for the current situation is the death of Earl of Tallinndal, causing the Duke of Arden to become more and more cautious.
"In the planetary fortress α217 in the Shield, there are a total of nine constant-star Palestine Templars, more than 60 warships, and the planetary fortress as a defensive barrier. The paper strength is really terrifying." Lang Xiaonian participated in the discussion seriously. .
"So. We surrounded them 1000 light seconds away. If they really rush out, we will run away if we see that something is wrong." Eve seems to be joking, but in fact what the fleet is talking about is the true intention of the fleet.
In fact.
In a space battle, usually the weaker side chooses to defend, and the stronger side chooses to attack.
Facing the statistics now, the Duke of Arden is obviously stronger.
Now a weak fleet is patrolling outside the planetary fortress. Looking only at the strength of the fleet, the noble fleet of the Duke of Arden and the Earl of Arnis should rush out and crush the human fleet.
However, the current situation is that the Duke of Arden is shrunk in the alpha 217 Scuti planetary fortress and dare not come out. This situation is very delicate.
...
Alpha 217 Scutum planetary fortress.
This fortress planet was originally the territory of Count Antudar.
After Earl Antudar was destroyed, he fell into the hands of the Carbon-based Alliance, controlled by the mechanical empire, and transformed the planet.
Then, the Duke of Arden attacked the spiral arm of the Scutum, and after repelling the Carbon-based Alliance, he re-occupied the planetary fortress α217 in the Scutum.
This planet has changed ownership many times, and it has been continuously damaged by war. It can be said that the fate is quite bumpy.
at this time.
The high-ranking nobles of the Palestine Galactic Far Star Empire are arguing in the α217 Scutum planetary fortress.
"Why allow the human fleet to operate in the star system? Shouldn't it immediately send a fleet to annihilate this group of carbon-based bugs?" Some aristocrats were very dissatisfied with the behavior of this tortoise, and they were still crushing each other with their strength. Shrunk in the planetary fortress and dare not go out.
The Duke of Arden had an ugly expression and did not speak.
Count Arnis explained: "I don't want to be the second Tallinn Dahl. Who of you wants to go out to fight, you can take your own warship to try it out, what if you do it?"
The reason these nobles shouted was that they hoped that the Duke of Arden could command the fleet to attack and crush the human fleet under absolute strength.
If they were to bring their own warships to attack, then these nobles would definitely not dare.
Even the Count of Tallinndal's fleet has been destroyed, they are not as stupid as that.
Moreover, after the fleet of the Earl of Tallinndal was destroyed, several high-speed destroyers actually escaped.
One has entered the α217 planetary fortress in the scutum and has been included in the fleet of the Duke of Arden.
Therefore, the noble seniors in the planetary fortress of α217 Scuti know clearly all the details of the killing of the Earl of Tallinndal.
"The reason why I, the human Earl of Tallinndal, will be defeated is not in the human fleet, but in the Kogaen behemoth. I suspect that the Alien Temple did not rigorously scrutinize it before sending the Kogaen behemoth to the battle. Believe it!" A nobleman pointed out the key point directly.
According to the intelligence brought back by the escaped destroyer, it was the Kogaen behemoth that had counterattacked and destroyed the Tallinndal fleet, basically at the speed of one claw one battleship. After more than a dozen blows, the Tallinndal fleet was gone. .
Therefore, from the intelligence point of view, it seems that the main reason for the destruction of the Tallinndal fleet was the rebellion of the Kogaen behemoth.
"It should be the Alien Temple that should be responsible for the defeat of the Tallinndal Fleet!" This nobleman was responsible for the Alien Temple.
In the Palese civilization, the Alien Temple has the same status as the Templar Temple on the bright side.
However, in fact, in the Palestine civilization, all Palestine beings considered themselves noble, while the alien warriors and war beasts in the alien temple were all humble.
However, for the Palestine civilization to be effective, it needs to tilt a portion of its resources toward the Alien Temple.
The alien warriors and the beasts of the alien temple divided the resources, which naturally led to the division of the interests of the noble class.
Therefore, a large part of the Palestine nobles criticized the Alien Temple.
Now, there is a situation of alien war beasts rebelling, and the Palese nobles who originally hated the alien temple will naturally not miss this opportunity.
"Duke Arden, I think we are fully capable of attacking and annihilating that human fleet. We should not let him wreak havoc in the star system!" The noble finally emphasized.
Usually in a space battle, once the enemy fleet enters the star system, it is equivalent to invading a safe area and should be attacked immediately or expelled.
However, the Duke of Arden would rather choose to stay in a planetary fortress than go out to destroy the human fleet.
"Do you think this group of carbon-based bugs are stupid? They only patrol 1,000 light-seconds away, and they have not entered the defensive restricted area, which is all. Not only can the attack not intercept the human fleet, it may even be ambush by the carbon-based alliance." Alnis The earl, on behalf of the Duke of Arden, reprimanded these nobles.
