Chapter 1188: Drone sea

A few minutes later, the fleet of Holy Admiral arrived at Lafayette's gravity well.
Although the Vulcans had been informed at this time and were fully prepared, the gravity well was surprisingly quiet.
Although the Vulcans on the defensive side, although they have the geographical advantage, the initiative is in the hands of the offensive side after all. The Vulcans are suddenly attacked. They want to mobilize the fleet to come to defense, it takes time.
Before the main fleet arrived in Lafayette, the Vulcans could rely on orbital defense facilities and the interstellar base hidden on the back of the planet to resist the attack of the Holy Admiral. They did not need to kill the enemy, as long as the planet was not Get attacked and that's it.
So at this time, the few small fleets of the Vulcans in Lafayette were also hidden behind the planet with the interplanetary base, instead of taking the initiative to fight against the huge fleet of Holy Admiral!
"So quiet ..." Helen didn't immediately order an attack after the fleet entered Lafayette's gravity well.
"Perhaps they found they were outnumbered, have they evacuated?" Some captains speculated.
"Impossible! The Vulcans are so tough and fleeing before they are fired. This is a death penalty, and no commander dares to do so!" Helen shook her head.
"Is there really an ambush here?" Helen frowned, remembering Qin Hao's interstellar base before.
"If there's really an interstellar base here, it's really not easy to handle ..." Helen frowned.
"Master Commander, are we launching an attack now?" A second-level commander asked.
"Offensive!" Helen said with determination, though there might be an interstellar base hidden here, but now she had no choice.
Now the Holy Admiral has officially declared war on the Vulcans, the wheels of war have been spinning, and no one can easily stop it before the victory is determined, and now if Helen ordered the withdrawal of Lafayette, Then the fleet of the Holy Admiral had to re-search for attack targets. After their delay, the Vulcan follow-up reinforcement fleet would also reach the front line.
In that case, the two sides are likely to fall into a war of attrition, and the entire star area will become a huge meat grinder. Both the Holy Admiral and the Vulcan will pay a heavy price here. When the war ends, the winning or losing It doesn't matter, because at that time, no matter if they win or lose, they will be greatly injured and become prey in the eyes of other advanced civilizations.
The two sides have always exercised restraint in order to avoid this situation, and the high priest dared to wage this war because she wanted to destroy the other main force fleet before the Vulcans reacted. Destroy their several battleships.
In this way, the strength of the two sides will form a significant gap, the Holy Admiral can take this opportunity to force the Vulcans to cede land compensation, as far as the invasion of the Vulcans, and the complete elimination of the Vulcans, whether it is The high priests, or the generals below, have never thought of anyone.
After all, the Vulcans are also advanced civilizations with several battleships. Even if they destroy two or three battleships, their combat power cannot be completely eliminated. Once the Holy Admiral has entered the heart of the Vulcans, the Vulcans feel When it is in danger of perishing, the Vulcans will definitely choose the ending of the Fishnet. At that time, one or more battleships sneak into the territory of the Holy Admiral and massacre, or even destroy the planet. Even if the Holy Admiral has won the war, The losses will be heavy.
So when you have an advantage, take it as soon as you see it. Don't push the other side into a dead end. This is the usual way to end the war between higher civilizations.
Adhering to this strategic thinking, the primary purpose of Helen in this battle is to break the opponent's defense line and cut the opponent's battlefield, so that his side will have a military advantage in the local battlefield, especially the number of battleships. The main battleship of the other side, and once the Holy Admiral fleet retreats now, when the Vulcan reinforcements arrive, when the three battleships against the three battleships, everyone can only fight attrition.
So up to now, Helen has no other choice. Even if there may be hidden interstellar bases here, she can only choose to storm. Now she only wants the other party ’s star base to be smaller so that she can be in the other party ’s main fleet. Destroy it before you come!
In that case, when the Vulcan's main fleet arrives, the Holy Admiral fleet can calmly face it, whether it is to cooperate with the main battleship behind the attack, and use the advantages of the three main battleships to divide the opponent's battlefield. Still taking the initiative to retreat, looking for opportunities to besiege again, the initiative is in Helen's hands.
But if she is dragged by the interplanetary base here, things will be more troublesome. When the other main force fleet arrives, it will form a double-team to her fleet, and the battle will inevitably be very difficult at that time.
Under Helen's order, the Holy Admiral fleet began to approach Lafayette, but they did not enter the near-Earth orbit of Lafayette. Instead, they formed a formation at a position about 400,000 kilometers from the ground, preparing to face the planet. Attack on air defense facilities and orbital defense facilities.
"Order the UAV aircraft carrier to release the unmanned bomber! Destroy the enemy's orbital defense facilities!" Helen gave the order ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Yes! commander! "The captains of those UAV aircraft carriers have released their own UAVs after receiving orders.
The sky-class drone carriers of the Holy Admiral are small aircraft carriers, their size is not very large, and their size is similar to that of the auxiliary cruiser Qin Hao sits on. Supports three UAV squadrons simultaneously.
And because the UAV production line is also loaded with UAV production lines, although it can only send three squadrons to fight at the same time, once the UAV is destroyed during the battle, it can immediately produce and use it. It quickly entered the battle.
This time, in the fleet of the Holy Admiral, there are a hundred sky drone carriers in existence, so when Helen's order was issued, more than 300 flying squadrons flew from the drone carriers, they were like bees. Ordinary group, straight into the distant track defense facilities.
At the same time, the Kingfisher-class battlecruiser also opened up the energy-enhancing force field. After this force field was opened, the cooling time of the beam weapon of the unmanned bomber was reduced by 25%, which greatly improved the performance of these drones. Fire output capability.
