Chapter 1217 Lin Fan Wants to Fight a Guerrilla War!

At present, the Federation's main fleet officially consists of only the First to the Forty-eighth Corps, and the 071 Corps that Lin Fan mentioned is the newly formed new corps, and it is also the first corps to pass through the cross-border channel.

This legion uses a new generation of federal general-purpose battleships. Not only have their weapons and armor been upgraded, but even their core energy and engines have been greatly improved compared to the previous generation of battleships.

after all

The previous generation of battleships has been used by the Federation for hundreds of years, while the new generation of battleships was created by Jiang Xinlan, Bai Zhi and Luo Li, integrating the latest technologies currently available to the Federation.

This combat capability is by no means comparable to that of the previous generation of warships. Even saying that it can defeat ten enemies at once is a very modest description.

The 071st Corps, which had arrived recently and was responsible for the surrounding security mission, quickly assembled after receiving Lin Fan's order.

"Marshal, the 071st Legion has assembled, and the 047th Legion that arrived later has taken over the guard mission!"

"According to calculations, if the 071st Legion attacks alone, it will be able to reach the combat position in about ten hours!"

Standing next to Lin Fan, Liang Xue checked her terminal while reporting.

There are more than 1,000 standard black cavity units. If it is a previous generation battleship using the ninth generation dark cavity engine, it will take about a day to arrive.

Although the new generation of battleships still use the ninth generation black cavity engine, it is a version that has been extremely optimized by Luo Li.

Even though there is no substantial breakthrough in technology, the speed is more than twice as fast.

Therefore, this is why Liang Xue said that if the 071st Corps attacks alone, it can arrive in ten hours.

"Order the fleet to set off immediately!"

"At the same time, have the commanders of each formation enter the virtual operations room. I want to make combat arrangements!"

Standing up, Lin Fan gave the order.

"Yes, Marshal!"

——

Ten minutes later, virtual war room.

Lin Fan, Liang Xue and the other ten formation commanders are all in place.

"Everyone, our opponents this time are completely different from the past. They have both the powerful individuals of biological civilization and the technology of the early stage of the second-order black cavity technology civilization."

"Although we are more powerful than them in terms of technology, they are better than us in terms of individual combat power!"

"This is not to say how strong their high-end combat power is. According to intelligence, the strongest combat power of the Taotie civilization should be the fourth level, but..."

"Don't forget that they are essentially a biological civilization, that is to say"

"In this civilization, there are no ordinary people. According to intelligence, even the weakest adults are at the level of an eighth-level Black Cavity User. The number of Black Cavity Lifeforms is conservatively estimated to have reached a million!"

hiss.

Listening to Lin Fan's introduction, everyone in the virtual conference room took a deep breath.

Before setting out on the expedition to the Covey Realm, these commanders who were able to lead a fleet of 10 trillion warships had all received some relevant intelligence information about the Taotie civilization.

but

This was the first time they had heard of what Lin Fan was talking about.

A conservative estimate of millions of black cavity life forms?

As long as they are adults, they can at least use eighth-level dark energy?

No wonder the marshal said that in terms of individual combat effectiveness, the other side is stronger than us. So that's the case.

You know, the entire federation now has only more than 70,000 civilization guardians (the name of the black cavity life form in the federation).

There were only 10,000 people who went out to guard the Kunsa Realm and followed the other three armies on the expedition and came to the Cove Realm.

Although, in this expedition to the Covey Realm, the Canglan Divine Realm also joined in, commanded by Rowling, with ten prophets and five thousand divine guards under his command.

But all together, that’s only 15,000 people.

The difference in number is more than 60 times, and this is based on the premise that the numbers mentioned by the Marshal are reliable.

after all

The Marshal has already said that one million is just a conservative estimate!

"So, I plan to fully implement this attack on the Covey Realm."

"Guerrilla warfare!"

What.

After hearing the strategy Lin Fan mentioned, everyone was a little confused.

After all, since the rise of the Federation, all wars have basically been won by technological superiority, and they can be won by just charging in.

What is guerrilla warfare?

Most of them died because they were inferior to the enemy in strength and could not win on a frontal battlefield, so they had to adopt this kind of combat method.

Therefore, this change in combat methods made these commanders feel a little at a loss.

"I know what you are thinking. Even if the Taotie civilization has such strength, we can still win with our current combat power. Why do we have to fight a guerrilla war?"

"I don't deny that as long as there is no fifth level in the Taotie civilization and the number of third and fourth levels is limited, we can still win even if we fight a head-on war."

"but."

"How much will this cost? Or, how many lives of the Federation soldiers are you prepared to sacrifice?"

After looking around, Lin Fan said sternly.

At this moment, everyone reacted suddenly.

According to the estimated military strength of the Taotie clan, even with this conservative number, if the alliance army wanted to win head-on, it would probably be a miserable victory.

The most crucial thing is that in order to deal with the huge number of black cavity life forms, it is estimated that at least thousands of federal civilization guardians will have to be lost before they can be suppressed.

Although the Marshal is a powerful being of the fifth level, Lin Fan is alone after all, and it is impossible for him to take care of everyone on the battlefield.

For the current federation, let alone such a huge loss, even if the loss was ten times smaller, it would still be a complete failure.

Again, the Federation’s population is too small to withstand too great a loss.

Thinking of this, the commanders lowered their heads in shame.

"Now that you understand everything, I will start arranging combat missions!"

After looking around again, Lin Fan nodded and said, then he waved his hand and unfolded a three-dimensional map of the Perando universe sent back by a reconnaissance ship.

"As you can see, the enemy didn't deploy any troops in Perando. According to the strategic reconnaissance ship's scan, the attack found one third-level, thirty-six second-level, seven hundred and twenty-one first-level black cavity life forms, and as many as 1.97 million tenth-level biological civilization individuals, which is the combat power of the peak dark energy users!"

My goodness, this is called not deploying any troops?

The number of black cavity life forms alone is almost the same as that in the 071 Legion, and there are 1.97 million peak-level tenth-order biological individuals, which is a bit exaggerated.

You know, at the same level, individuals of biological civilization are stronger than dark energy users of technological civilization.

after all

In the entire 071 Legion, there are only 300,000 peak dark energy users.

Well, there are at least millions of Black Chamber lives, but there are less than a thousand here. Our own marshal said that the other side did not deploy any troops, which is true.

No problem!
