He is the captain of the Athena, and he is also a traditional old captain who has experienced hundreds of battles.

However, these two veterans are also pragmatic and low-key types, and they all said that Miss Tai'a is the one who matters in this way, at least in name.

In addition, to say that it was a head-on attack, to put it bluntly, it means that the empire took the initiative to leave the battle line after suffering small losses.

Of course, considering Tai'a's own temperament, if her own side's losses were greater, she would not hide it in the battle report. Since it was a "head-on attack", it at least meant that the losses of the empire's pursuers would exceed those of her own side.

Not bad! Yu Lian thought. He didn't expect that girl to have the talent to lead troops in battle. Although she was not the one commanding the fleet, it was very likely that she could make a U-turn and a carbine operation.

If you have determination, you will have the talent to become a famous general.

In a sense, decision-making is even more of a test of talent than strategy.

Yu Lian suddenly showed a comforting smile: "It's still a typical counter-pursuit and counter-harassment, but the results this time are more fruitful than last time, right?"

"Yes, at least four destroyers were confirmed to have been sunk, one light cruiser was seriously damaged, and we lost 1 Lightning Striker and 1 Ranger-class light cruiser. We also shot down the enemy at the cost of three White Devils and four Phantoms.

13 aircraft.”

"This kind of exchange ratio should continue to be publicized. In this way, more and more countries will feel that the imperial devils are exaggerating. If the combined fleet of Cirke friends can be quickly strengthened, this series of small-scale battles will

The meaning is not limited to the results on paper." Yu Lian smiled.

In fact, Yu Lian has been doing this all this time. Said has fallen after all, and Xinya has a large army pressing down on the border. The local soldiers and civilians always need some good news to persevere.

There was still obvious worry on the face of the chief of staff: "It's just that in order to meet the pursuers, the march of General Bai's fleet was affected. Before they left the A11 galaxy, another enemy pursuit fleet also arrived. Now,

The number of enemy ships behind them has exceeded 400, and there are two dreadnoughts."

Yu Lian didn't take it seriously: "The capacity of the gravity well in the corridor is limited, and the imperial army will slow down."

Of course, the chief of staff agreed with the commander's judgment, but still said: "However, we cannot rule out that they will do the same thing in the future."

Compared to the caution on the I Earl Star Gap side, the pursuers on the Lucknar Corridor side were much more active.

If the imperial troops on both sides were wolves, one side would be like following a wounded tiger, and the other side would be like following a herd of deer.

"Very good. I originally thought that when we sailed out of the far shore nebula, it was time for the Imperial pursuit fleet to launch an attack. They would be like a pack of hunting wolves, following, harassing and biting until we were completely

When you fall into fatigue, it’s time for the final encirclement and annihilation. However, it is obvious that the enemy is preparing to start early.”

Major General Mkawa said quite seriously: "Only the Lucknar Corridor started in advance. As for the I Earl Star Gap, because of your presence, the pursuers did not dare to make mistakes. Your Excellency, you alone are the deterrent.

It’s as big as a Titan.”

He really thinks so.

Yu Lian smiled noncommittally, walked to the star chart terminal, and enlarged the projection of the far shore star area.

"The enemy's personnel and warship status are actually far superior to ours, and they actually have a mobility advantage. Once they reach the star area, they are more likely to complete the encirclement of us."

His fingers slid along the channel of Earl I Star Gap. When his fingertips slid from the nebula to the hinterland of the star region, the icon representing the route suddenly changed from two zigzag lines to a network extending in all directions.

Chief of Staff Mkawa nodded slightly and added: "Just now, the staff has completed ten cruise calculations. Everyone can basically confirm that if we follow the original plan and rendezvous in the Xinliao galaxy, the enemy fleet is likely to be here.

There is indeed a huge security risk after completing the encirclement. Of course, the premise is that they must gather twice as many troops as ours on the battlefield."

If there weren't so many people, even if we complete the encirclement, we will definitely break through. This is what Major General Mkawa wants to say.

He was always worried that the combat effectiveness of this fleet was based on the commander's personal prestige, but unknowingly, the mentality of the strong had already appeared in every soldier, including of course the most staid old staff officer.

Grow yourself.

"They have so many people." The major general said again: "Sir, the more it is at this time, the more we need to avoid losses. Before the fleet is fully prepared and rested, all engagements will be worth the loss."

Yu Lian was very pleased. It was precisely because of such mature and prudent veterans that he was not worried that his Yu fleet would completely turn into arrogant and careless soldiers.

"What are your suggestions?"

The old chief of staff's cheeks trembled, and there seemed to be a hint of struggle and desolation in the wrinkles.

However, he did not hesitate after all, and said in a deep voice: "The original battle plan of giving up the rendezvous in the Xinliao Galaxy, diverting supplies to Shuntian, and deploying defenses. Your Excellency, I believe that the entire far-coast star region is completely lacking."
Chapter completed!
