Chapter 1652: Harassment and Guerrilla
Generalissimo, don't worry, I'll do my best and die! "Hu Ke, Han Yihang and August replied in unison.
"Well! I won't talk nonsense, I wish the three generals prosperous martial arts!" Qin Hao solemnly saluted the three.
...
After Qin Hao personally presided over the swearing-in meeting, the fleet of the Interstellar Federation went to the front line. At the same time, Qian Feng also leaked information to the Borg people step by step. He provided the Borg people with three waterways leading to the earth. There are three confluence points in the course, one of which is the C9 star sector in the constellation Perseus.
So no matter which route the Borg choose, they will eventually reach the defensive positions of the Star Federation, where they will have a decisive battle with the Star Federation fleet.
The purpose of the Borg is to force the Star Federation's fleet to fight them decisively, so they will not be surprised to encounter the Star Federation's fleet in the C9 star area of Perseus, let alone suspect Qian Feng.
...
Just four months after the Borg crossed the Death Scar, their fleet finally arrived near the constellation Perseus.
During these few months, the Borg fleet did not live comfortably. Although they did not encounter large-scale resistance, they were also harassed by the guerrilla fleet of the Star Federation.
Without exception, these guerrilla fleets of the Interstellar Federation are small-scale fleets composed of nearly a thousand spaceships. They do not even carry heavy warships. The Overseer and the Dirac Disruptor are used as assistants, and the rest are all long-range missile frigates such as the Kenlak Raider.
Such a fleet configuration itself is very flexible, and has the advantage of ultra-long range. With the guarantee of the data link, the phase missiles can be ignored after launch. After a few rounds of salvos, the fleet can turn around and escape.
Although the enemy will not let the Star Federation's fleet come and go as it pleases, the existence of the Ankert Marauder-class capital ship is too heaven-defying. Its powerful phase assist ability can not only make the enemy's phase interference device It is useless, and it can also drop phase-stable nodes anytime and anywhere, and then flee from the target location in a straight line, making it impossible for the Borg fleet to chase after them.
After all, the artificial phase line created by the phase stability node is not stable, and the fleet of the Interstellar Federation can pass through it at will, but if the fleet of the Borg follows in, after the fleet of the Interstellar Federation breaks out of the phase line, they can destroy the other end phase stable nodes.
It is necessary to know that the artificial phase line is formed by relying on two phase stable nodes,
After the fleet enters, the phase stability node as the starting point is meaningless. After all, the fleet has entered the phase space, but the exit node is very important, because once the exit phase node is destroyed, the exit of the phase line will disappear. , the fleet will be trapped in this phase line forever, unless there is a new phase node on this phase line one day, they can escape from it.
Relying on the super mobility brought by the Anteco Marauder-class battleship, the six guerrilla fleets under the Interstellar Federation are harassing the Borg fleet almost continuously, making them safe for a moment.
Although the scale of these guerrilla fleets is not large, and the damage they can cause is very limited, they did seriously delay the Borg's advancement speed, and at the same time caused certain losses to the Borg.
In addition, what the Borg are more worried about is the supply problem, because of the existence of the Interstellar Federation guerrilla fleet, the Borg are very entangled in dispatching the logistics fleet!
As intruders, the Borg's understanding of the current star field is definitely inferior to that of the Interstellar Federation fighting at their own gates, so it is unrealistic for their logistics fleet to hide from the eyes and ears of the Interstellar Federation.
Once these logistics fleets are discovered by the Interstellar Federation, there is no need to say more about their fate. It is impossible for the Borg to send the main fleet back to pick up these transport ships, because in that case, their previous march would become meaningless.
But if the main fleet doesn't go back, and only a few sub-fleets go to escort, it is completely meaningless, so the logistics problem has become the biggest problem plaguing Baturuka.
"General, our supplies are only enough for another three months, and the spaceship's fuel is no longer enough, should we stop and rest?" A staff officer came to Baturuka.
"Well... that's the only way to do it now. It seems that this war can't end in a short time!" Baturuka also gave up his plan to blitz the enemy's capital star, and now the supply of the fleet has become a major difficulty.
Regarding the issue of energy, this is actually secondary to entering the civilization of the universe. After all, as long as they find a star to settle down and build a large energy collection station there, a steady stream of energy blocks will soon be produced. All they need is some time.
But the supply of food and fresh water is not so easy. Although the consumption of semi-mechanized Borg is much smaller than that of other creatures, they are not fully mechanized after all, so they still consume biological resources. .
Coupled with the huge base of crew members in the entire fleet, the Borg's demand for food and fresh water is also very considerable.
So in desperation, Baturuka could only choose to disperse the fleet in a small area and let them hunt on different planets to obtain food. At the same time, Baturuka also chose three stars as temporary base camps. They established Large energy harvesting devices to harvest the energy of stars.
However, in order to avoid being destroyed one by one by the Interstellar Federation, the Borg fleet is only scattered within a certain range. Once the main fleet of the Interstellar Federation is found, they can quickly regroup and support each other more effectively. .
According to Baturuka's plan, they will rest in this star field for about two months to obtain enough energy and food supplies.
The actions of the Borg were almost carried out under the eyes of the Interstellar Federation. Long before the war started, Qin Hao had ordered that the relevant star field be filled with reconnaissance satellites and reconnaissance swarms. Under this double reconnaissance guarantee, Qin Hao knew every move of the Borg people like the palm of his hand.
"Inform Hu Ke and the others that the Borg cannot get supplies so easily!" Qin Hao, who was sitting in the rear, had already arrived at the moon at this time. He needs the swarm into battle.
The Queen of Worms had promised Qin Hao before, telling him that he could use the power of the swarm of bugs. As for the consequences of doing so, the Queen of Worms would bear it for him, so Qin Hao didn't have so much to use the swarm of bugs at this time. concerns.
