Chapter 1651: Battlefield
After determining the landing site of the Borg, the Star Federation's fleet began to quickly gather and shrink inward.
Because the Interstellar Federation is different from the old civilizations before, although they have also won the control of half of the universe, but because their rise is too sudden, although the territory has been laid down, it is too late to occupy and operate it.
Therefore, most of the territory is idle. In this way, the fleet of the Interstellar Federation can temporarily give up some territories and planets without any scruples. Anyway, there are no factories or immigrants there, and there is no need to care about one city and one place at all. gains and losses.
And the most terrible thing is that because the Interstellar Federation did not develop these planets, there were no crops, no factories, and no mines on these planets. Task.
For the Borg, this is definitely not good news. Although most of the Borg are semi-mechanized, there are not many people who are truly purely mechanized, and at least some of the semi-mechanized people still belong to the organization of biological structures , so they still need to eat.
You must know that the number of crew members on a fleet is very terrifying, it can easily be millions, or even tens of millions!
And with so many crew members, their food needs will naturally be very terrifying. Although there are many habitable planets in the Interstellar Federation, there are many animal and plant resources on them, but because they have not been developed, there are no ready-made food crops here. No granary either!
Although there are many wild animals, hunting is unrealistic if you have to feed tens of millions of people!
The hinterland of the Borg is separated from the front line by a death scar, which also makes the transportation of supplies a big problem. The Borg must solve most of their needs on the spot. After all, it takes at least a year for a transport ship to go back and forth. .
If the problem of food is a test for the Borg, then the supply of energy and materials is even more of a headache for them.
The desolation of the Interstellar Federation territory was far beyond their imagination. Although they saw a lot of resource stars along the way, they also found out that these planets store a large amount of rare metals and even energy crystal veins.
But the problem is that none of these planets have been developed. If the Borg want to obtain these resources, they have to land on the planet first, then build mines and factories, and after everything is ready, they will mine minerals and energy crystals bit by bit.
But the question is, as the Borg on the offensive side, might they spend a lot of time building roots here? And once they start building, will the Star Federation's fleet not let it go?
You must know that breaking words is much easier than building! It is impossible for the Borg fleet to garrison every resource star they fancy, and once they leave this resource star, it will become the target of the Interstellar Federation's attack.
Because of their familiarity with the interstellar waterway, if the Interstellar Federation fights guerrilla warfare in its own territory, the Borg really have no good solution.
In desperation, the Borg asked Qian Feng for information again. They needed to know the specific combat plan of the Interstellar Federation, and they also wanted to know a direct route to the capital planet Earth.
Obviously, Borg didn't want to spend any more time with the Star Federation. They decided to go straight to Huanglong and force the Star Federation to fight them in advance.
The commander of the Borg fleet, Baturuka, is not stupid. He knows very well that he is going deep alone, and what he lacks most is supplies. Once he delays with the enemy, even if he keeps building mines and farming land, the enemy will not let them Successfully harvested.
Therefore, the tactic of using war to support war is actually not realistic in the space age. The super long construction time is enough to make the Borg people unable to wait.
So Baturuka made up his mind,
He wants to take advantage of the advantage of the Borg fleet, and directly attack the earth, forcing the Star Federation's fleet to volunteer to fight him.
Under the order of Baturuka, the Borg army was divided into five groups. Among them, a main fleet with a scale of 200,000 warships headed by Titans was the vanguard and swept directly towards the earth. Battlestar sits in the center as the final force, leading 500,000 warships to prepare for support at any time. The other three directions are also a huge fleet composed of nearly a hundred battleships. If you add the accompanying conventional warships , The size of each squadron of the Borg has reached an astonishing 100,000 ships!
The total size of the Borg fleet has reached the million-class level, and it is going straight into the hinterland of the Star Federation. This is a huge test for the Star Federation!
Don't look at the fact that the Interstellar Federation has also experienced the baptism of a fleet of millions of ships when facing the Redeemer Alliance, but the warships of the Redeemer Alliance are relatively backward. force.
But the Borg are different. They not only have Titans, but also battle stars. The size of their fleet is more than twice that of the Star Federation. Therefore, not only in terms of quality, but also in terms of quantity, they have stabilized the Star Federation.
For more than a month since the beginning of the war, the Borg had an absolute advantage. First, their morale was high at this time, and second, it was because the Star Federation did not fully exert its strength at this stage. Every time they attacked, it was not for The decisive battle was a fire reconnaissance, and they ran away after a few rounds, so the Borg never encountered too tenacious resistance at all.
But as the Borg continued to advance, they had already approached the core area of the Interstellar Federation. This is the area they had occupied when they first appeared in front of the advanced civilization. After so many years of operation, they could no longer give up easily.
Moreover, the tentative attack of more than a month before, combined with the information provided by Cynthia, also allowed the Interstellar Federation to understand the performance and parameters of most of the Borg warships.
So when the Borg fleet approached the Perseus c9 star area, Qin Hao officially gave the order to stop it!
The c9 star area of Perseus is of great significance to Qin Hao. It was here that he came into contact with the Zerg and changed his life.
In addition, besides the destroyed Alpha star in the c9 star area, there are really not many valuable planets, which are just suitable for becoming an interstellar battlefield, so Qin Hao set the main battlefield of the war between the Interstellar Federation and the Borg Here it is.
"Three! The future of mankind is up to you!" Before the human fleet set off, Qin Hao met his three fleet commanders in person!
Among them, Hu Ke, as the commander-in-chief of this war, led the core main force of the Federation including Battle Star, while Han Yihang and August respectively led two fleets to sit on the two wings.
