Guide to Galactic Dominance

36 Iridium battleships came out of the space-time tunnel. This navigation technology was obtained from the Iridium people after they defeated their old enemy the Snail Mosquitoes. After certain improvements, it was widely installed on every Iridium ship. On the battleship.

Under normal circumstances, Iridium battleships can use critical warp speed and can go to any destination extremely quickly and flexibly, except for some starry skies that are currently closed. However, critical warp speed also has its own problems, that is, it will be interrupted by the enemy's anti-warp jamming device, and it will also be discovered by the enemy earlier. Based on the Iridium people's own experience, after discovering an enemy approaching at warp speed, they immediately prepared for battle. When the enemy arrived, they faced a fleet that was armed to the teeth and ready for action. There was not much chance of winning.

In contrast, the corridor technology cannot be interrupted and is almost unpredictable. The disadvantage is that it cannot fly wherever it wants. The fleet can only sail in a directional way when there is a fixed corridor. And if the opponent knows where the exit of the corridor is and carries out focused defense, it will also be a very troublesome thing.

However, in the scenario of Noye's fleet's quick reaction detachment attacking the supply line behind enemy lines, even if the Galaxy Empire's Sushuang Legion wanted to realize the key defense of the space-time tunnel, he could not do it. Because there are many corridor nodes in the 5 major star areas of the Sagittarius Arm, and even on the routes of the logistics supply line. Su Shuang can choose to divide his troops, but if the opponent invades in a large scale, Su Shuang will suffer a loss.

In fact, Bai Zhongchu's strategy of disrupting supply lines has already worked. Su Shuang was a little worried about this. He did not have the information about Iridium's space-time tunnel navigation technology, and the Snow Dragon Alliance did not have complete information about the space-time tunnel nodes. Therefore, a large amount of astronomical route surveying and mapping work must be done together. Do it bit by bit. Bai Zhongqi caught him off guard and knocked out two of his supply fleets in a row, leaving a large number of energy components too late to be installed, causing Su Shuang's fleet to face a crisis in combat effectiveness.

This sneak attack by the fast anti-ship fleet was already the third harassment operation, and it was in a different position than the previous two.

After Kang Xiong escaped from the tunnel, he immediately opened the screen on his command terminal. In the highly information-interactive Iridium Empire Army, officers have the authority to observe and understand everything happening on the battlefield, which will help them make their own decisions and fight.

The captain's instructions came quickly: "The enemy's supply fleet should have discovered the characteristics of the corridor space on our side. Make a quick decision and attack the supply ships first and ignore the escort ships."

This carefully planned attack was finally formed after the Iridium people obtained the Sushuang Legion's supply fleet route through extensive reconnaissance and calculated the time and location. After the quick reaction detachment jumps out, they can immediately intercept the enemy without delaying more than a minute or a second.

Kang Xiong saw the enemy's supply fleet in the camera, including twenty transport ships, but there were more than fifty escort ships, but the main ones were more cost-effective frigates. After all, such ships would bear more responsibilities. For this type of mission, and for real space battles, capital ships and cruisers are more suitable.

It is for this reason that the Iridium United Empire has actually greatly reduced the scale of starships below frigates, and instead focuses on building battleships and cruisers. Destroyers serve as semi-auxiliary roles and planetary bombing missions, and are still produced in small batches. But frigates are basically no longer built unless they have escort missions.

The main reason why the warships can be fully enlarged is because Iridium has such resources and technical capabilities. Otherwise, ordinary civilization would still prefer small and multi-purpose frigates.

More than a dozen fire cruisers started blasting at the Galactic Empire's supply ships. Now that the technology is highly mature, even Iridium's cruisers must be equipped with at least two blazing cannons to show off their appearance. This kind of momentum and power The powerful main guns came up and blasted the shields of several supply ships. It seemed that they would not be able to hold on for too long.

Kang Xiong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he should have won today. He adjusted the data on his holographic screen and took a look at Savannah's situation. Even though this brave female pilot participated in the battle for the first time, her performance was particularly eye-catching. She led the drone fleet to continuously pass through the anti-aircraft barrage blockade of enemy ships, and guided the bombers to conduct large-scale bombings.

But at this moment, Savannah suddenly contacted Kang Xiong.

"Lieutenant Kangxiong, Lieutenant Kangxiong, can you hear me?"

"I'm here, Lieutenant Savannah, please speak."

Savannah said in a very serious tone: "Did you notice that the mass reading of the material produced after the explosion of the cargo ship just exploded was a bit too low. There was not that much material in this cargo ship at all, which means it was empty. Carried."

Kang Xiong was shocked, "How can it be empty? This is obviously a supply route that we have mastered by the enemy."

"I don't know, but this is definitely not a good thing." Savannah still calmly controlled the fighter plane and attacked those ships.

Just when Kang Xiong was wondering what was going on, suddenly a noncommissioned officer next to him shouted: "Look, what the hell is that?"

Kang Xiong suddenly looked at the holographic screen on the terminal. At this moment, he suddenly saw that a large stream of shining colloid appeared on the Galactic Empire frigate, which was originally bearing the violent firepower of the Iridium people, like a living creature. flowing through the body.

"Those warships want to merge into one?" Kang Xiong couldn't believe it.

The Iridium warships grabbed the cargo ships and attacked them as soon as they came up, with only a small amount of firepower to calmly deal with the frigates. But this group of frigates actually didn't fight at all today.

When the quick reaction detachment destroyed almost all the cargo ships, they discovered that the Galactic Empire frigates that were not fighting actively seemed to have a layer of glue sticking to each other.

The captain of the Innocence immediately ordered: "Air wing, quickly attack those enemy ships. No matter what they want to do, they cannot be allowed to succeed."

A large number of Iridium fighter planes blasted towards the enemy with various sharp weapons, but at this time, the shield of the originally weak frigate seemed to have become stronger.

Kang Xiong's face became a little solemn: "Is it a shield sharing technology?"

Yong Jin, who was responsible for the main gun firepower and the battleship defense system, spoke at this time: "It's not a shield array, because these battleships have basically become a battleship now, and their shield systems are physically connected. Together."
