Chapter 346 [Tacit Ceasefire]
Five-dimensional space-time.
The battlefield is tense.
Countless warship wreckages flew everywhere with the shock waves from the warships of both sides.
The Kronos Empire.
Dark Devourer.
Lina Chen looked at the casualties on the front line, frowned, and said: "Commander, our losses are too great, should we take a break?"
Those are real lives.
It's not that consuming.
"Slowly reduce the frequency of attacks."
"Prepare to build a defensive line."
Emily Robinson also noticed the losses on her side. The Kronos Empire was sent as the vanguard, but they were not sent to die without objection.
I don’t know when the support from behind will arrive.
She couldn't afford to destroy all her fleet here.
If the troops under his command were really wiped out, he would be left alone.
The feeling of having military power in your hands and not having military power in your hands is different.
"As ordered."
Lina Chen immediately accepted the order.
Their losses were too severe and they had to wait for support from follow-up troops.
In distant time and space.
"Boss Bai, the opponent's attack frequency has decreased."
Nan Wentian spoke quickly as he read the images transmitted back through the Star Fortress.
The high intensity of mental concentration caused him to be quite tired in this short period of time.
I need to perfect various details for Mr. Bai's layout.
The marshals are responsible for large-scale battlefield planning, while their adjutants' responsibility is to take into account the details of fleet group mobilization, which is a very tiring job.
"The loss of 1600 million battleships."
Bai Wen's face became extremely gloomy when she looked at the total losses.
This was the most brutal battle she had ever fought.
"Should we slow down too?"
Nan Wentian asked tentatively.
The original First Combined Fleet now has only six fleets.
The 21st to 30th fleet was completely wiped out, and not a single soldier chose to retreat.
"Since the enemy wants to hold off, let's hold off too."
"There's no need to chase."
Bai Wen said.
The enemy's warships outnumber ours by dozens of times. If we pursue them, we might fall into their trap.
"Report."
"speak."
Bai Wen came to the battle star map, looked at the situation on the map, and kept thinking in her mind how the opponent would attack her next and how she should respond?
In both collisions, I relied on a large number of destructive attacks to inflict heavy losses on the other side. They will definitely adjust their tactics or even wait for support.
"Abnormal feedback from the dimensional barrier."
"The six-dimensional phase and the five-dimensional phase are getting closer..." The shipboard technicians immediately said a bunch of professional terms, making Bai Wen and Nan Wentian frown.
Nan Wentian said impatiently: "Just get to the point."
They are soldiers, not scientific researchers.
He knew about the six-dimensional phase and the five-dimensional phase, that is, the six-dimensional world and the five-dimensional world, but the words that followed made him confused.
"That's what I mean."
"The speed of time in the six-dimensional world and the five-dimensional world is gradually becoming the same."
"If we can hold out until the time of the two major dimensional layers is equal, we will have timely support."
"If we can't keep the flow of time constant, then we will be wiped out, including the Star Fortress." The shipboard technicians hurriedly highlighted the key points and explained them in detail.
"The time difference of 365 times is slowly equalizing?"
Hearing this, Bai Wen and Nan Wentian looked up at the technician who was reporting. He was an academician of the Imperial Academy of Engineering. Although he was just an ordinary academician, the word "academician" represented the other party's value.
"Yes."
The shipboard technician nodded seriously and said, "We just need to make up for the time difference. Our subsequent support forces will be able to help us solve the current situation of fighting alone."
The two marshals who decided the life and death of the combined fleet both had joy in their eyes.
if it is like this.
Then their First Combined Fleet would be saved.
This war was really too difficult.
"Boss Bai, we are waiting for reinforcements. I'm afraid the enemy is also waiting for reinforcements!"
Nan Wentian narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "No one wants to wipe out the troops under his command. Once the troops are wiped out, he will be left alone. There is a big difference between having military power and not having military power."
They all understand this truth.
As long as their First Combined Fleet is wiped out, they will be truly left alone.
By then, it will be difficult to replenish troops.
"I hope we can make the most of this time difference and wait for the other six combined fleets to arrive for support."
"It would be best if the support could arrive before the enemy's support arrives."
As the highest commander of the imperial military, Bai Wen does not like dirty politics, but being in this position, she cannot avoid dealing with politics and naturally understands the twists and turns involved.
It is normal if the other party has such intention.
The two sides gradually reached a tacit understanding and neither continued to fire, but retreated to a distance that each considered safe.
The Star Ancient Empire sent a message to the other party, of course, in the language of the Star Ancient Empire. As for whether the other party could understand it or not, it had nothing to do with them.
"Go to the battlefield and salvage the wreckage of the empire."
"If there are remains of warriors, collect them."
Bai Wen said seriously: "Be careful to avoid the magnetic field of the law."
With hundreds of millions of fleets fighting each other, it is normal for some leftover warships to turn into dust, and among them there must be the remains of the soldiers.
As for being alive, it is almost impossible.
"promise."
"The Star Fortress's transport ship will arrive at the battlefield in ten minutes."
Nan Wentian quickly dispatched the Star Fortress’ transport ship.
The law magnetic field is the energy aftermath left by destructive-level weapons. Even if a warship enters the law magnetic field, it will be affected by its residual energy, causing large-scale damage to the shield, armor, bridge, engine, etc.
Dark Devourer.
"Report, we have received information from the enemy."
Lina Chen was at the front line and was the first to receive information from the Star Ancient Empire. She quickly reported it to Emily Robinson.
"Decipher it immediately."
Emily Robinson said.
"Uh~"
Hearing this, Lina Chen looked weird, not knowing what to say.
"What happened? Can't decipher it?" Emily Robinson asked with a frown when she saw his expression.
“No need to decipher.”
"The other party sent the message in plain text."
"Besides, the writing is the same as that used by the Empire. We can understand it perfectly."
Lina Chen said: "The message from the other side means that the two armies have ceased fighting. They need to collect the wreckage of the warships on the battlefield and the remains of the soldiers who violated the vaporization and send them back."
"Ok!"
Emily nodded. "Let the transport ships in the Dark Devourer also go to collect the remains of the soldiers. The wreckage of the battleship should be destroyed directly. Don't give it to the enemy civilization. If you capture the wreckage of the enemy's battleship, drag it back directly."
This is an unwritten rule. Even in an interstellar war, after a ceasefire, both sides tacitly agree to collect the wreckage of their respective warships and the bodies of the soldiers in the wreckage.
If you don't comply, you will die.
