Chapter 1208: Final Battle - Phase 2
The prelude to the final battle at the Zerg hive was soon underway.
The first wave of attacks was formed by the Insect Queen's Owl Dragon Zerg fleet.
An attack was launched against 30 million Order Zerg.
Up to this point, the number of the Owl Dragon Zerg fleet cultivated by the Insect Princess has actually increased compared to the beginning.
The number has exceeded ten million!
Although the two sides still have a gap of one to three.
However, the JF-17 fleet was not idle either; they were also providing fire support to the front lines.
This is due to their operational coordination capabilities.
The Xiaolong Empire fleet entered the first phase of this decisive battle with almost zero casualties!
On the other side, the twenty million Order Zerg located between the northern Zerg hive defense line and the Angel City fortress were just as Zhao Chen had expected.
They changed their attack direction and abandoned their continued assault on the northern Zerg nest defenses.
The angelic front turned to attack the Angel City Fortress.
They attempted to rendezvous with the Order Zerg behind them.
However, neither the Order Zerg defenses nor the Angelic front would allow such an idea.
These 20 million Order Zerg must be kept here!
June 10, 3037 (Galactic Calendar)
It happened to be the tenth day of the decisive battle. During these ten days, the area outside the northern territory of the Xiaolong Interstellar Empire had become a veritable meat grinder of war.
Over these ten days, the Zerg Order lost at least one million Zerg motherships each day, and sometimes as many as two million.
In order to launch the attack, the Xiaolong Zerg fleet suffered at least 200,000 casualties per day, not including the Zerg motherships that were infected with bio-engineering.
Therefore, look at the actual data.
The Zerg definitely suffered more losses.
On the other hand, the Dragon Legion fleet suffered fewer than a thousand interstellar warships in the past ten days.
However, the amount of strategic resources consumed was enormous, given the countless times interstellar missiles were used for fire support.
"As of now, the number of Order Zerg remaining is around ten million."
Our losses are within a manageable range.
"Regarding the consumption of strategic materials, it's basically a 10/8 ratio of consumption to replenishment; Secretary Lilith's logistics and supply system is extremely comprehensive."
In addition, the stargate opened by the South Gate starship within the Angel City fortress area makes our logistical defenses extremely secure!
There's absolutely no need to worry about anything!
"The situation on the Xiaolong Zerg fleet side is also very good."
There are still about 50,000 Zerg motherships alone, in addition to 3 million bio-engineered Zerg motherships.
Although the number will gradually decrease over time.
However, maintaining this position until the end of the decisive battle should not be a problem.
Zhao Chen looked at the reports from the marshals and commanders in front of him.
Everything went very smoothly.
"The enemy has still managed to delay us for quite some time."
Next, the remaining ten million-plus Order Zerg.
The Xiaolong Zerg fleet left a portion to clear these out, while the Xiaolong Empire fleet also left 50,000 to 100,000 interstellar warships.
The main purpose is to retain those interstellar fleets that are in poor condition but still capable of combat.
The remaining combat fleet is preparing to enter the second phase of this decisive battle.
Zhao Chen looked at the locations of the two Zerg nests on the interstellar sandbox.
"Prepare to advance into the Zerg hive!"
With only about ten million Order Zerg remaining, they were no longer able to stop the advance of the Dragon Empire's fleet.
The main fleet successfully penetrated the current battlefield and headed towards the two Zerg lairs.
............
"Still no movement from the two Zerg lairs?" Zhao Chen asked, looking at the two Zerg lairs getting closer and closer on the interstellar sandbox.
Chu Xuan, speaking in the adjacent video window, said, "So far, we have dispatched personnel to closely monitor these two Zerg nests."
The T5 Ghost-class light interstellar stealth reconnaissance ship detected no abnormalities.
Those two Zerg lairs were exactly the same as before.
It was as if... they hadn't noticed anything about what had happened on our side at all.
Or rather... they simply couldn't do anything.
Zhao Chen frowned slightly.
Compared to these two possibilities.
Zhao Chen was more convinced that the other party still had some trump cards up their sleeve.
After all, this is backed by the powerful existence of the legendary T7 technological civilization, where anything is possible.
"Don't let your guard down."
Be prepared for everything that may happen.
"We even need to be prepared to evacuate at any time," Zhao Chen said in a deep voice.
"Yes," the marshals and commanders replied in unison.
"Have the two Supernova Ultimate Bombs arrived?" Zhao Chen asked.
"The two Supernova Ultimate Bombs were already in place before we crossed the second battlefield," Commander Panda Girl said.
The area between the northern Zerg hive defense line and the Angelic front was referred to by Zhao Chen and others as the first battlefield.
The battlefield outside the Angel City Fortress is now naturally referred to as the Second Battlefield.
Next, they will open up a third front.
"Two Supernova Ultimate Bombs were each carried by a T5 Lightning Ghost-class Heavy Assault Star Cruiser."
"Follow our Imperial Guard fleet," Commander Panda Girl announced.
Given the availability of T6 starships, why assign T5 starships to perform such an important mission?
Of course, it's because the T5 Lightning Ghost-class Heavy Assault Star Cruiser is a star cruiser with extremely high mobility.
It is perfectly suited for this kind of 'bombing' combat work.
"Our next target is the Zerg hive number one." Zhao Chen scrambled his hands across the interstellar sandbox.
An image of a galaxy has been magnified.
However, this galaxy is quite special.
It is in the form of a large, dark, fleshy ball.
This is the Zerg nest.
A single Zerg hive is the size of a galaxy.
It is only through such a massive Zerg hive that a fleet of hundreds of millions of Zerg has been able to be built.
This decisive battle is to completely remove these two large tumors.
"Calculate the optimal detonation location."
We need to breach the Zerg hive number one and plant the Supernova Ultimate Bomb.
After safely evacuating, they detonated the supernova ultimate bomb.
This will severely damage this large tumor!
In our calculations, it is difficult to destroy a Zerg hive in one go with a single Supernova Ultimate Bomb.
Destroying two-thirds of it is sufficient.
The rest depends on our regular operations, or the arrival of the second batch of two T6 supernova ultimate bombs at the end of the month.
After destroying the first Zerg hive.
If all goes well, we can destroy the second Zerg hive.
Prior to this, all fleet groups should prepare for battle.
"To prepare for any eventuality!" Zhao Chen pointed at the interstellar sand table, looking at the marshals and commanders before him!
