Chapter 1187: Angel of the Dead
Zhao Chen arrived at the Undead No. 1 battlefield not long ago.
News then came that the undead legion fleet had launched an attack.
"All directions?" Zhao Chen looked at Chu Xuan in the video window opposite him with surprise.
Chu Xuan nodded, pointing to the holographic interstellar sand table in front of her.
"There are a total of six attack routes, and each attack route has 200,000 undead combat units."
"This includes undead starships, as well as other undead creatures," Chu Xuan said.
Two hundred thousand undead combat units along each attack route.
Zhao Chen knew about Chu Xuan's arrangements on each defensive line.
Each defensive line is also guarded by approximately 30,000 JF-17 Dragon interstellar warships, in addition to some recently constructed defensive facilities.
Although there is a significant difference in numbers between the two sides.
However, the Dragon Empire's fleet consisted entirely of T4 and T5 level interstellar warships.
There are also some T6 interstellar warships stationed there.
It should be sufficient to deal with these undead legions for the time being.
"No main direction of attack?" Zhao Chen asked.
"We haven't figured out which is the main focus yet," Chu Xuan said, frowning.
Zhao Chen pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that the undead legion still has troops that have not been mobilized."
We need to prepare for the worst.
Chu Xuan, you will take charge of battlefield command according to your original plan.
Without conclusive evidence to determine the main direction of the undead army's attack, the reserve fleet will not be deployed to the battlefield for the time being.
If the reserve fleets are deployed to the battlefield now, it might reduce some of the pressure on the defensive lines.
But if the undead legion fleet really has a backup plan, then they will be in a very passive position.
"Yes." Chu Xuan understood what Zhao Chen was thinking, and she immediately began to explain the tasks for each battlefield.
In fact, each fleet has an excellent commander who only needs to issue a battle order.
Soon, battles broke out on various battlefields.
Zhao Chen sat on his flagship.
This is a T6 Seraphim Ballista-class interstellar long-range hunter.
It is the latest batch of T6-class interstellar warships to enter service.
Due to its recent commissioning, it is temporarily unable to integrate into the combat systems of the various fleet groups.
Therefore, they were temporarily incorporated into the Imperial Guard fleet, and their final destination would be determined when further arrangements were made.
The officers and soldiers on the bridge were extremely excited at that moment.
Although they are not currently engaged in combat, their aura is just as powerful as if they were fighting on a battlefield.
Because behind them, on that temporary throne, sat their idol, their dream man.
Your Majesty the Emperor of the Dragon Star Empire!
At this moment, a young captain stood beside the throne, his eyes occasionally glancing at the Emperor, his heart pounding.
This feeling of excitement far surpassed any battle she had ever experienced before.
"Your name is Tao Beibei," Zhao Chen said, looking at the captain of the T6 starship.
Tao Beibei immediately stood up straight: "Your Majesty, I am Tao Beibei, the current captain of the first ship of the T6 Seraphim Ballista-class interstellar long-range hunter ship, with the rank of Brigadier General."
I joined the JF-17 Legion three years ago.
He joined the JF-17 Legion as a student of the Northern Starship Military Academy.
He subsequently served in the former First Army Corps led by General Charlotte, the former Fourth Army Corps led by General Su Lan, and the former Eleventh Army Corps led by General Zhao Ruyue.
His highest position was deputy commander of a legion fleet.
After saying that, she chuckled a little shyly: "But it seems that my personal talent in command is not very good."
Commanding three thousand interstellar warships is manageable, but commanding tens of thousands of interstellar warships is not so good.
Although she took time out of her schedule to return to the Goddess Academy level... now known as the Dragon Royal Military Academy for further studies, she did not make much progress.
He was then given the opportunity to become the captain of a new T6 starship, although he had to temporarily give up his current senior officer status.
But I still resolutely took on the tasks of serving as captain of the new T6 starship, as well as training personnel.
Captain Tao Beibei was clearly very nervous.
Zhao Chen asked a question casually, but she wished she could tell Zhao Chen all her experiences and details.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just borrowing your bridge."
"You can ignore me; I won't interfere with your commands," Zhao Chen said with a smile, looking at the somewhat nervous Tao Beibei.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous." Tao Beibei waved her hands repeatedly, but the beads of sweat on her forehead betrayed her true feelings.
"Is this your first time commanding a T6-class starship in actual combat?" Zhao Chen asked.
Tao Beibei straightened up and said confidently, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
Although this is my first time commanding a T6 Seraphim Ballista-class interstellar long-range hunter in actual combat.
But my crew and I have been preparing for a long time, and we are confident that we can demonstrate our strength at any time, against any opponent!
"Very good, I'll wait and see your strength," Zhao Chen said casually.
Continue to monitor the holographic interstellar sandbox shared by Chu Xuan.
He would occasionally inquire about Tao Beibei's understanding of the battlefield.
From their conversation, Zhao Chen could indeed tell that Tao Beibei was not very good at battlefield command.
Although Zhao Chen wasn't particularly talented in this area, he spent a lot of time with battlefield strategists like Charlotte, Akame, Shen Bing, Su Lan, and Chu Xuan.
They learned something from it, and at the same time, they could see the gap between the two sides.
Time passed little by little.
Zhao Chen noticed that these undead legions were behaving in ways completely different from before.
For example, some amazing T5 creatures.
T5-level undead starships were nothing new to Zhao Chen and his group; they were basically 'copy' and 'upgrade' versions of the Xiaolong series interstellar warships.
Zhao Chen could recognize the original form after just a few glances.
Therefore, he was more interested in those undead creatures.
The most numerous of them are the 'Angels of the Dead'.
This is a newly released, and relatively numerous, type of undead unit.
It resembles an angel in appearance, but it has no flesh and blood; it is entirely a skeleton with bone wings on its back.
Their size is hundreds of times that of the current angel race.
For example, the height of an adult angel is now around 1.9 to 2 meters.
However, these undead angels seemed to have been enlarged, each one over two hundred meters tall!
Although it cannot compare to those undead starships that range from a few hundred meters to several thousand or even tens of thousands of meters in length.
However, the unique appearance of these undead angels gives people a completely different feeling of awe.
Especially within that skull, a ghostly flame, like a will-o'-the-wisp, flickered incessantly.
