T5 Dragon Emperor Starship - Bridge

"How's the battlefield deployment going?" Zhao Chen walked up to Charlotte and asked.

Charlotte pointed to the interstellar war sand table in front of her: "More than two million interstellar warships, and a fleet of 370,000 Angel Legion ships."

Of these, 500,000 interstellar warships were responsible for controlling the interstellar Zerg that had not yet had time to be eliminated in previous missions but had been confined to a certain area.

The remaining 1.5 million interstellar warships were divided into elite fleets and regular fleets.

Our Dragon Legion and the Angel race's 370,000 interstellar warships serve as the main combat fleet.

These three tiers of fleet classification will play different roles on the battlefield.

Zhao Chen looked at the cursors on the interstellar war sandbox. They were in three different colors. If he clicked on one, he could see which interstellar fleets were stationed at each cursor position, as well as the current situation.

These are all battlefield big data compiled by the Dragon Emperor interstellar command ship. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"As for the upcoming insect hive."

"I've established both large and small defensive positions." Charlotte looked at the little dragon girl floating in the air: "Little Dragon Girl."

"I'm here!" Little Dragon Girl blinked and tapped the interstellar war sandbox.

Then, a war scene rehearsed appeared on the interstellar war sandbox.

Outside the huge red area in the center, which is the cosmic wormhole and the area occupied by its interstellar swarm, ten huge golden dotted circles appeared.

"This is a golden circle, a major battleground."

It is mainly composed of the main combat fleet and the elite fleet.

On average, each major position is garrisoned by 30,000 to 60,000 interstellar warships.

Ten golden strongholds, with a total of nearly 500,000 interstellar warships.

This includes portions of our Dragon Legion fleet, portions of the Angel Legion fleet, the Dragon Tiger Legion, the Holy Light Empress Fleet Group, the Chu Family Fleet Group, the Starry Royal Family Fleet Group, and the elite dragon-man fleet from the Dragon Legion.

Looking at the outer perimeter of these large golden circles, Zhao Chen could see numerous smaller, scattered golden circles.

These small golden circles are all roughly the same distance apart, and their number is several times that of the large golden circles.

"These small golden circles are small battle positions, which are a mixture of main battle fleets, elite fleets and regular fleets. The detailed arrangement is based on the situation of each small golden circle position calculated by Xiaolongnu."

Furthermore, the number of interstellar warships deployed within these small golden circles is not fixed.

The current planned deployment is approximately 3,000 to 10,000 interstellar warships within each small golden circle formation.

There are a total of three hundred small gold circles.

The number of interstellar warships currently confirmed for deployment is 1.5 million.

In addition, there are 500,000 interstellar warships that are not currently assigned detailed combat missions and are used as reserves and emergency fleets.

"We can provide support to any local battlefield that needs it at any time!" Charlotte explained.

At this moment, the war rehearsal on this interstellar war sandbox has already begun.

Large numbers of Zerg units began to swarm out of the central cosmic burrow, rushing outwards like a tidal wave.

The first to be impacted were naturally those large golden circle defensive positions.

While the large golden circle defensive positions were resisting the attack of the interstellar Zerg, some of the interstellar Zerg fleets continued their charge, and soon encountered the smaller golden circle positions located in the rear.

However, because the large golden circle defensive positions had previously neutralized the massive offensive momentum of the Zerg, the Zerg fleets that subsequently arrived at these smaller golden circles would not pose a significant threat to these smaller golden circle positions.

"We considered that the number of Zerg in the interplanetary race was too large."

According to the results of our investigation by the interstellar stealth reconnaissance ship that we deployed, the size of that permanent level 5 cosmic wormhole is already equivalent to the size of a galaxy!

We have no way to shut down this cosmic wormhole.

Our staff had previously considered directly storming in and fighting around the cosmic wormhole.

However, according to Xiaolongnu's intelligent calculations, that was extremely dangerous.

First of all, we don't know exactly how many Zerg will we face this time; that's unknown.

Secondly, doing so would reduce the depth of our operations.

Therefore, we ultimately chose to unleash the Zerg to fight.

This gives us sufficient operational depth.

At that time, no matter what unexpected situation arises, we will be able to adapt accordingly.

Meanwhile, the interstellar stealth reconnaissance ships and outposts we've deployed in advance can inform us what kind of enemy we'll be facing next.

Although the announcement may only be given half an hour to an hour in advance.

But this time is enough for us to develop a proper response plan.” Charlotte began by explaining the core of this tactical strategy.

Zhao Chen already knew all of this.

Charlotte pointed to the golden defensive positions on the interstellar war sand table: "Then we considered that if we set up such a large battlefield depth, then even if we have more than two million interstellar warships, we would still be able to achieve this."

It would also be difficult to build an impenetrable defense over such a large area.

Let's consider this: since we can't do it, let's just not create a unified defense line.

Instead, they deliberately let the Zerg fleet pass through.

Just like what we are rehearsing now.

The first ten large defensive positions will neutralize the most ferocious attacks of the Zerg swarm, while the subsequent diverted Zerg fleets can be handled by the three hundred smaller defensive positions in the rear.

These two lines of defense can greatly increase our combat capabilities and battlefield operational space.

If a defensive position becomes too heavily pressured, we can deploy our starfleet to provide support and focus our defense on that position!

After hearing all the arrangements, Zhao Chen nodded in satisfaction.

"However... such a large-scale operation poses a significant challenge to logistical support."

"For the logistics fleet, the worst-case scenario... would most likely be that they would have to fight their way through the interstellar insectoids, charge into the defensive positions, and deliver combat supplies to them," Charlotte said, glancing at Secretary Lilith beside her.

Lilith is in charge of this aspect.

Secretary Lilith said solemnly, "This matter will be handled by our Xiaolong's dedicated interstellar transport fleet, as well as the wartime interstellar transport fleet established by the Beiyan Group."

Li Wei's side indicated that as long as the front-line positions did not fall, they would ensure the smooth supply of combat materials.

"If supplies can't be transported up, Li Wei... he'll risk his life to ensure the front lines have uninterrupted supplies!"

"This kid." Zhao Chen smiled, but there was a hint of seriousness in his smile.

He continued to gaze at the interstellar war map, which, to others, might have appeared to be what he was looking at.

Actually, he was looking at the fluctuating number.

Only one hour left...

Swarm of insects...
