Chapter 179 The War Methods of Low-Level Civilizations

In human observation, the Kuntai civilization fleet, which was originally the front end of the umbrella formation, sprayed bright tail flames, and more than 100 mountain-class warships slowly broke away from the umbrella handle and slowly accelerated towards the asteroid belt.

The Kuntai civilization had 120 mountain-class warships, but did not set off all of them. Instead, 10 were left behind. After leaving the large fleet, these 10 warships immediately reorganized their formation.

It can be seen that they spread out like a piece of cloth, forming a main battleship defense network, blocking 293 cylindrical living spaceships behind.

The 110 warships advancing towards the battlefield of the asteroid belt began to change their formation while sailing after leaving their original positions.

Sixty warships rushed forward at a significantly faster acceleration, and then divided into three groups, forming three warship squadrons at the front, each with 20 ships.

After the Kuntai civilization fleet completed the formation change, humans saw that if the positions of the three formations were connected by lines, they formed a triangle. And in the middle of the triangle, there was another formation of 50 warships.

One was divided into four, three in front and one in the back.

Each formation has its own independent formation, and it advances steadily from space. From the perspective of humans, it looks like four shining stars inlaid in the night sky.

"It seems that the Kuntai civilization is going to concentrate its strength to advance!" Yue Yuan came to this conclusion as he watched the fleet of the Kuntai civilization change its formation in the picture.

This is what he is most willing to see, because when the Kuntai civilization advances in a large formation, humans do not need to disperse too much strength to intercept possible probes, and the direction of firepower is more concentrated.

The concentrated direction of firepower means a high probability of hitting.

Of course, the defensive firepower will also be very concentrated, and it will be more difficult for humans to destroy it in one fell swoop.

So although Yue Yuan is willing to see the Kuntai civilization fight in a large formation, he is also afraid that this large formation will rush towards a target direction without risking its life.

If they do this, even if they have an asteroid belt to cover an ambush, humans will not have an advantage in manpower. In this case, the war will proceed in a direction that is unfavorable to humans.

Because there are too few Shan-class warships in the human world, and small ships like frigates can't cause actual damage to Shan-class warships, even if there are 60 Ganymede-class warships.

If the Shan-class warships of Kuntai civilization have the same performance as the Shan-class warships of humans, about 80 of the 100 Ganymede-class warships will have to be destroyed before they can be sunk.

And this process is very long.

So even here, Ganymede-class warships are only used to disturb the enemy, using their electromagnetic rail guns or nuclear missiles to harass the enemy's main battleships, as an aid to the main guns of the Shan-class warships hitting the enemy ships.

"Then it depends on whether you have the courage to rush into the asteroid belt all at once!" Yue Yuan muttered to himself as he looked nervously at the Kuntai civilization fleet that had killed its way to the outer edge of the asteroid belt.

After seeing that some of the Kuntai civilization's detectors had entered the effective range of the Wudang Mountain formation and were destroyed, Yue Yuan immediately made a final pre-war mobilization for the ships in his formation.

As the flagship of human civilization, the Tianqin also had to participate in the battle, and Yue Yuan had made plans. As long as the Kuntai civilization fleet entered the asteroid belt, the Tianqin fleet and the Kunlun fleet would rush out from different positions and try to concentrate their forces to destroy the Kuntai civilization warships that entered the asteroid belt.

At the same time, the previously prepared self-destructing shuttles, space motherships, etc., would also launch the first wave of tentative self-destructing raids on the Kuntai civilization's residential spacecraft.

At that time, it would depend on whether the Kuntai civilization's mountain-class warship formation would choose to continue to advance or return to defense. If they chose to continue to advance, they would suppress all the raiding teams and make sure that the Kuntai civilization felt that their residential spacecraft was in danger.

In this way, the purpose of disrupting the morale of his front-line troops could be achieved to the greatest extent.

Yue Yuan and the General Staff had formulated many plans, and it depended on what the Kuntai civilization chose.

While Yue Yuan was waiting nervously, the Kuntai civilization made the next move.

A batch of about a thousand probe spacecraft were released from the main battleship and rushed towards various parts of the asteroid belt.

The beginning of the war occurred when the probe spacecraft advanced and the frigate intercepted.

"Communicator, tell the Wudangshan and Emeishan fleets! Their mission focuses on intercepting the Kuntai civilization probe spacecraft. Before the main fleet of the Kuntai civilization makes the next decision, they must keep the asteroid belt foggy."

The neutrino communication carried Yue Yuan's instructions and landed on the battlefield through asteroids.

At the same time, the Wudangshan and Emeishan fleets took corresponding actions according to the battlefield situation.

The two main battleships first withdrew a distance to the asteroid belt, and then separated up and down, keeping the effective range of laser weapons with the opponent's large formation, and then the 20 Ganymede-class warships and 100 frigates in the formation were all free to disperse and began to kill the passing probe spacecraft.

And the space mothership carrying the self-destructive drone in the formation directly retracted behind a larger asteroid, and then released the 10,000 drones on it, forming a second line of defense at the edge of the asteroid belt.

Whenever a detector missed by the frigates rushes into this range, these drones will use their advantages of small mass, large acceleration, and high speed to make up for it.

For a moment, the battlefield was staggered with rays of death, and the nuclear missile engines were spraying tail flames like fireflies, chasing their targets.

A probe ship locked by a nuclear missile had just used electronic interference to make the missile lose its target, and the next moment a light spot appeared on its body.

The light spot turned from red to white within one second, and then before the second came, it burned a hole in the probe ship, and then the probe ship was engulfed by a larger flame.

That was the explosion caused by itself.

Laser weapons, or energy beam weapons, cannot be detected because they are at the speed of light, and detection is equivalent to being hit.

The frigate that just destroyed the probe ship was a frigate twenty light seconds away.

Before launching the energy weapon, the frigate had already targeted the probe ship and fired several nuclear missiles at it, plus a few electromagnetic railguns at seemingly irrelevant places. Since these physical weapons were fired, several energy beam weapons on the frigate began to predict the target.

This predictive strike not only takes into account the next turn of the opponent's probe, but also takes into account the parameters of environmental factors, which are the experiments done by human scientists before.
