A few tens of minutes later, the fleet of the envoys of the Holy Spirit arrived at the gravity well of Star Lafayette.

Although the Vulcans had already received the news at this time and had already fully prepared for battle, the gravity well was indeed surprisingly quiet.

As the defensive Vulcans, although they have a geographical advantage, the initiative is in the hands of the attackers. The Vulcans are suddenly attacked, and they want to mobilize the fleet to defend, which will take time.

Before the main fleet arrives at Star Lafayette, what the Vulcans can do is rely on the orbital defense facilities and the interstellar base hidden on the back of the planet to resist the attack of the Holy Angels. They don't need to kill the enemy, as long as the planet is not correct If it is attacked, that's fine.

So at this time, the few small fleets of the Vulcans on Lafayette are also hiding behind the planet with the interstellar base, instead of taking the initiative to attack and fight to the death with the huge fleet of the Holy Messenger!

"It's so quiet..." Helen didn't immediately order the attack after the fleet entered the gravity well of Star Lafayette.

"Maybe they found out that they are outnumbered and have already evacuated?" Some captains speculated.

"Impossible! The military laws of the Vulcans are strict. Running away before firing a cannon is a capital offense. No commander would dare to do that!" Helen shook her head.

"Could it be that there is really an ambush here?" Helen frowned. She remembered the interstellar base that Qin Hao had mentioned before.

"If there really is an interstellar base here, it's really not easy to handle..." Helen frowned.

"Master Commander, shall we launch an attack now?" a second-level commander asked.

"Attack!" Helen said with determination, although there might be an interstellar base hidden here, but now she has no choice.

Now that the Holy Angels have officially declared war on the Vulcans, the wheels of the war have already started to spin, and no one can easily stop it before the winner is decided, and now if Helen gives the order to evacuate Star Lafayette, Then the fleet of the Holy Messenger will have to look for the attack target again. After such a delay, the follow-up reinforcement fleet of the Vulcans will also arrive at the front line.

In that case, the two sides are likely to fall into a war of attrition, and the entire star area will become a huge meat grinder. Both the Holy Messenger and the Vulcans will pay a heavy price here. When the war is over, winning or losing will be determined It doesn't matter anymore, because at that time, no matter whether they win or lose, their vitality will be severely damaged, and they will become prey in the eyes of other higher civilizations.

Both sides have been restrained before,

It was to avoid this from happening, and the reason why the high priest dared to launch this war was because she wanted to annihilate the opponent's main fleet before the Vulcans reacted, preferably a few of their main ships.

In this way, there will be a clear gap between the strengths of the two sides, and the Holy Envoy can take this opportunity to force the Vulcans to cede land and pay compensation. Whether it is the high priest or the generals below, no one has thought about it.

After all, the Vulcans are also an advanced civilization with several capital ships. Even if two or three of their capital ships are annihilated, their combat effectiveness cannot be completely eliminated. When the danger of extinction is reached, the Vulcans will definitely choose the ending of the dead and the net broken. At that time, one or several capital ships will sneak into the territory of the Holy Messenger to massacre or even destroy the planet. will suffer heavy losses.

So after gaining an advantage, just accept it as soon as you see it, and don't push the opponent to a dead end. This is the normal way to end wars between advanced civilizations.

Adhering to this kind of strategic thinking, then Helen's primary purpose in this battle is to break through the opponent's defense line and cut up the opponent's battlefield, so that her side can form a force advantage in the local battlefield, especially the advantage in the number of capital ships, so as to find opportunities to encircle and kill The opponent's capital ship, and once the Holy Promenade Fleet retreats now, when the Vulcan reinforcement fleet arrives, three capital ships will fight against three capital ships, then everyone can only fight a war of attrition.

So now, Helen has no other choice. Even if there may be a hidden interstellar base here, she can only choose to attack by force. She only wants the opponent's star base to be small so that she can be in the opponent's main fleet. Destroy it before you get there!

In that case, when the main fleet of the Vulcans arrives, the Fleet of the Holy Promenades can face it calmly. Whether it is to cooperate with the battleship sitting in the rear to attack, relying on the advantage of the three battleships to divide the opponent's battlefield, Or take the initiative to retreat, looking for opportunities to siege again, the initiative is all in Helen's hands.

But if she is held back by the interstellar base here, things will be more troublesome. When the opponent's main fleet arrives, it will form a double-team to her fleet, and the battle will inevitably be very difficult at that time.

Under Helen's order, the fleet of Holy Advent messengers began to approach Lafayette Star, but they did not enter the low-earth orbit of Lafayette Star, but formed a formation at a position about 400,000 kilometers above the ground, preparing to attack the planet. The air defense facilities and orbital defense facilities launched an attack.

"Order the drone carrier in the sky to release the unmanned bombers! Destroy the enemy's orbital defense facilities!" Helen gave the order.

"Yes! Commander!" The captains of the drone carriers in the sky released their drones one after another after receiving the order.

The sky-class drone carriers of the Holy Promenade are all small aircraft carriers. They are not very big, and they are about the same size as the auxiliary cruiser Qin Hao sat on. They are equipped with powerful remote control systems and radar systems. Simultaneously support three UAV squadrons in combat.

And because the sky drone carrier is also equipped with a drone production line, although it can only send three squadrons to fight at the same time, once a drone is destroyed in a battle, it can immediately produce it and use it It quickly threw itself into battle.

This time, in the fleet of the Holy Messenger, there were a hundred drone carriers in the sky, so when Helen's order was issued, more than 300 flying squadrons flew out of the drone carrier, and they were like bees. Like a group, they went straight to the orbital defense facilities in the distance.

At the same time, the Kingfisher-class aircraft-carrying battlecruiser also activated the energy-enhancing force field. After the force field was activated, the cooling time of the beam weapons of the unmanned bombers was shortened by 125%, which greatly improved the performance of these drones. Firepower output capability.
