Chapter 984: Surrounded
The superior general saw that some of his subordinates still wanted to make meritorious service, so he lectured them:
"Don't think I'm being harsh, I've lost more battles than all the battles you've fought combined.
War is not a game, if you're not careful, you'll lose your life!
I advise you to abandon all the fluke ideas of wanting to make meritorious service, stability is the most important thing on the battlefield.
Why do you think I can live to this day? It's because no matter whether I'm fighting Terra bugs or humans.
I've always followed a Principle.
This principle is just one word, do you know what it is? ”
A subordinate officer flattered:
“Boss, I know, it’s stable!”
The general of the Black Gold Alliance, who likes to act like a boss in front of his subordinates, put down his cigar and cursed directly:
“Bullshit! It’s cowardly!
As long as you are cowardly enough, you will never do anything impulsive.
Do you understand?”
The subordinate officers said in unison:
“Understood, Boss!”
“Yeah.”
The general of the Black Gold Alliance Army was obviously very satisfied with his subordinates calling him the boss.
After he sat down, he picked up the cigar and continued:
“Don’t think about dealing with the remaining fleet of the United Government Army in a hurry. The decisive battlefield of our Black Gold Alliance this time is not in our direction.
We just need to defend and prevent the fleet of the Black Gold Alliance Army from continuing to attack. ”
The subordinate officer immediately nodded to show that he knew.
However, there were still curious officers who stepped forward and asked in a low voice:
"Boss, in this battle between our Black Gold Alliance and the United Government Army, which star field will be the decisive battlefield?"
Hearing this, the superior general immediately looked at his subordinate officer with a stern look.
"Huh?"
The subordinate officer realized that he had asked the wrong question and quickly smiled and said:
"Boss, look at my mouth, I always ask questions that I shouldn't ask.
I slap my mouth!"
Seeing this, the superior officer no longer paid attention to his subordinates and continued to smoke cigars and wait in peace.
......
"What, the Black Gold Alliance actually deployed a planetary bomb?
The thousands of warships of the Third Corps' offensive formation were almost completely destroyed?"
After receiving the news from the Third Corps' offensive formation, many commanders of the other several United Government Army's corps formations sighed.
They knew in their hearts that the lieutenant general in charge of commanding the Third Corps' offensive formation was not a brainless person.
On the contrary, the lieutenant general's ability was still very outstanding.
Being able to fall into this trap, it is obvious that the Black Gold Alliance's arrangement is very clever.
They are somewhat fortunate that the direction of the star field they are responsible for attacking is not the side of the Third Corps' attack formation.
Otherwise, it would be them who would face the situation of almost complete annihilation.
While they are fortunate, they are also confused.
Everyone knows that the explosion of planetary bombs cannot be cancelled.
Then how did the Third Corps' attack formation have such bad luck that it happened to hit the planets where planetary bombs were deployed?
Using planetary bombs can indeed cause large-scale damage to the fleet.
However, in the internal wars of mankind, few people will use them.
The reason is simple.
You don't know which planet the enemy machine will attack. If the planetary bomb is deployed on the wrong planet, it will not only fail to kill the enemy, but also let the enemy know your purpose in advance and guard against you.
And the planet where the planetary bomb is deployed may explode before the enemy attacks.
In this case, not only will you lose the planet in vain, but you will also not have any killing effect on the enemy.
"Unless, the Black Gold Alliance Army can accurately know the attack formation of the Third Corps and the precise attack route."
This idea just popped up in the mind of the commander of the Fourth Corps' attack formation, and he rejected it.
The commander shook his head, rejected his previous idea, and continued to analyze:
"The specific tactics of the attack were issued to each fleet by the commander-in-chief when approaching the border of the Black Gold Alliance's starry sky.
Let alone the precise attack route.
An hour before the war officially started, we ourselves did not know the division and number of troops of each corps fleet.
Even if there were spies of the Black Gold Alliance Army under the corps, how could the Black Gold Alliance Army know it?"
"Unless, they deployed spies around the general who was the commander-in-chief.
Or, the general who was the commander-in-chief himself had problems?!"
This idea was also quite terrifying for the commander of the corps' attack formation, who was a lieutenant general.
Because even if the people around the general who was the commander-in-chief were spies, then the identity and position of this spy were also very high.
At least he is at the level of a lieutenant general, just like me.
"If that's the case, then this battle of mine..."
Before the lieutenant general, the commander, could finish thinking, a subordinate officer reported:
"Report to the commander, a fleet of the Black Gold Alliance appeared in the starry sky ahead, and the estimated number of warships is between 2,500 and 3,000!"
Nearly 3,000 warships, this number is already quite a lot, equivalent to the strength of nearly 30 regular corps fleets.
On my side, I have nearly 5,000 warships.
The strength is almost twice that of the Black Gold Alliance Army that I encountered.
"Pass my order, all warships face the enemy head-on, and the fleet will go out..."
However, before the word "attack" was uttered, another subordinate officer came to report:
"Report to the commander, the Black Gold Alliance fleet appeared in the starry sky behind our fleet, and the remaining warships are about 2,000 to 2,500!!"
"Report to the commander, the Black Gold Alliance fleet appeared in the starry sky above our fleet, and the remaining warships are about 1,500 to 2,000!!"
"Report to the commander, the Black Gold Alliance fleet appeared in the starry sky below our fleet, and the remaining warships are about 2,000!!"
"Report to the commander, the Black Gold Alliance fleet appeared in the starry sky to the left of our fleet, and the remaining warships are about 1,500 to 2,000......."
Almost at the same time, the Black Gold Alliance fleet appeared in the starry sky in front, behind, up, down, left, and right of the Fourth Corps' attack formation.
In an instant, the Fourth Corps' attack formation of the United Government Army was completely surrounded.
And the total number of warships surrounded by the Black Gold Alliance Army exceeded 11,000.
It is more than twice the total warship strength of the Fourth Corps' attack formation of the United Government Army!
Listening to the reports from his subordinate officers, the lieutenant commander rushed to the console in disbelief and checked the radar feedback data himself.
After he saw clearly that he was really surrounded by the Black Gold Alliance, he gritted his teeth and said:
"How is it possible... How is this possible?!
The total number of warships of the Black Gold Alliance Army is definitely less than that of our United Government Army. Where did they get so many warships to surround us?
Could it be that they don't want the other lines of defense anymore..."
