Chapter 670 Refugee Tide
While Nie Yun was carrying out the Broken Star strategy step by step, on the other side of the wormhole, the war between the Gemini Stars and the Locke Consortium was in full swing...
Time back to two months ago.
Gemini, the Stormy galaxy.
The bustling waterway in the past is now dilapidated, and a large number of spaceships and equipment wreckage form an obvious debris belt, extending all the way to the central administrative star...
More than 2200 warships were divided into 11 squadrons, surrounding the administrative star cluster in a semi-encircled formation.
"Boom!" The last floating fortress meteor turned into a ball of fire under the overwhelming firepower.
"Lord Cloros, the opponent's resistance has been wiped out!" the adjutant said with a smile on his face.
In less than a month, Cloros' second invasion fleet completely destroyed all resistance forces in the Storm Galaxy.
Facing the more than 2200 Locke Consortium's regular army fleet that was almost dispatched by the Locke Consortium, the Gemini side, which was almost wiped out in the last white dwarf explosion, had no ability to assemble a resistance fleet of the same size again in a short period of time.
In addition, the supernova explosion directly severely damaged the storm galaxy's painstakingly managed defense system, destroying more than 60% of the defense facilities.
Under such circumstances, the fall of the Storm Galaxy cannot be reversed at all, which even ordinary Gemini officers can analyze.
Stubborn resistance is undoubtedly the most stupid choice.
Therefore, after ascertaining the huge number of the enemy's second wave fleet, the Gemini Star Army was shocked, and without hesitation issued an order for a full evacuation.
Except for a small number of local garrison troops who stayed behind to procrastinate, all military forces, including Nie Yun and other remnant fleets, immediately withdrew from the Storm Galaxy and retreated to the rear.
"Huh? Didn't the light speed battle star appear..."
While Cloros heaved a sigh of relief, a look of disappointment could not help but appear in his eyes.
"Yes, it seems that as the adults expected, either the opponent's battle star has strict usage conditions, or they are worried about falling into our targeted trap." The adjutant admired.
In order to deal with this biggest threat, Cloros has made more than one plan.
Including dividing the fleet into eleven squadrons, and reducing the opponent's attack efficiency by expanding the space distance.
Another example is to quietly replace the ship, let your own flagship go to act as a bait, and at the same time avoid the opponent's beheading action.
But now it seems that the opponent has no intention of launching this secret weapon again, and Cloros's preparations are really a show for the blind.
So, how to get it without the opponent using the battle star...
Just as Cloros was contemplating, the adjutant said suddenly. "My lord, we have just received a surrender signal from the Geminis on the planet."
"Hmph! Surrender?" Cloros sneered.
"If it's surrendering on behalf of their civilization, then maybe I can accept it, but it's just an administrative star? Do they think I will treat prisoners preferentially?"
Yes, there are still many Gemini civilians stranded on Storm Star.
It is easy for an army to leave, but how easy is it to evacuate an entire galaxy?
For a living planet that has been developed for more than a hundred years, the population on it is more than one billion.
Even after the war expanded, a considerable number of people with economic conditions had already voluntarily moved to other galaxies where it was safer, but the remaining population exceeded 5 million.
Fortunately, Girard has already prepared for the worst situation, and prepared a large number of transport spaceships recruited from the Gallente sector in advance.
After the defeat on the front line, the Gemini Council immediately issued an emergency evacuation order and began to arrange transport ships to evacuate the people.
However, the carrying capacity of the spaceport is always limited, and the migration of hundreds of millions of people, even if there are enough transport ships, cannot be completed overnight.
No one expected that the battle situation that seemed to have a certain advantage would take a sudden turn for the worse, allowing the opponent to hit the door in a short period of time.
This also led to the fact that more than 2000 million people were blocked on the planet before boarding the transport ship.
Hearing Cloros's words full of cold meaning, the adjutant frowned slightly.
"My lord, judging from the information we have seized, the strength of this Gemini civilization is not too weak. If they massacre their civilians, it may cause fierce resistance from the other side."
"Hmm... You're right. Although I don't care about the life and death of these ants, they may be more useful alive than dead..." Cloros thought for a moment, and a tricky smile gradually appeared on his face.
……
Soon after, a large number of trapped Gemini people, driven by naval guns, scrambled to escape from Stormstar by spaceship.
However, before they were surprised at the enemy's benevolence and rejoiced that they had escaped, a dazzling stream of light shot straight from the Locke Consortium's fleet to Storm Star.
The next moment, the land sank and the plate collapsed...
The huge shock wave visible to the naked eye in space slowly swept across the entire planet!
"Oh! God!"
"These demons!"
"..."
There were exclamations of fear or anger from the crowd on the spaceship.
They didn't understand why these intruders allowed them to leave safely one moment, and then brutally destroyed their homes the next moment.
"Escape! Escape to the interior of civilization!"
Witnessing the cruel reality of the destruction of their homes, countless people have only one thought in their minds, and that is to escape!
……
two months later.
Gallente sector, Rock Fortress.
"Report! The Yunlan galaxy has fallen!"
"Report! The Izel galaxy has fallen!"
"Report! The Bermuda galaxy has fallen!"
"..."
The bad news coming from the front made the high-ranking military officers present look extremely heavy.
After the storm galaxy, Cloros divided into five groups, followed in the footsteps of the refugees, and began to burn the flames of war to the remaining galaxies of Gemini.
"Alsace, tell me, how will this battle develop next?" Renault asked worriedly.
The main force of Gemini Star in the Gallente sector was severely damaged, and the Dreadnought battle star sank. All the remaining forces had to be concentrated to retreat to the Rock Fortress and urgently established a second line of defense.
The advantage of this is to avoid being destroyed one by one by the opponent, but the disadvantage is that it is equivalent to giving up several outer galaxies.
It's a tough trade-off for the Gemini stars.
Originally, they still had the opportunity to arrange an orderly evacuation, but they did not expect that after the opponent's first wave of fleet was almost destroyed, the second wave of fleet would come so many and so quickly.
"If there is no external interference, I'm afraid the best outcome is to lose a quarter of the territory." Nie Yun sighed.
As expected, Cloros is indeed a well-known commander in the Woolf Empire for a long time. He has a vicious vision and even made a fuss about taking advantage of the refugee wave!
Every time a place was captured, the opponent not only did not carry out massacres and cleansing, but drove out a large number of refugees, and then directly destroyed the planet with star destroying weapons!
There is only one purpose for doing this... to impact the logistics system of Gemini!
This is terrible!
Now, apart from the garrison fleets in some places, there is not much mobile power to be drawn, and the deployment of fleets in other star regions will take a lot of time, and it will not be able to quench the near thirst.
The warships of the Woolf Empire have an average combat power that is not lower than that of the Gemini side. Facing the enemy's squadron with at least 400 ships on each route, if there are fewer ships, it is simply to deliver food.
It is conservatively estimated that at least 500 warships are needed to withstand one of the fleets.
But in today's Gallente sector, where can we gather these 500 warships?
And these pitifully small fleets, due to the impact of massive refugees, had to allocate a large part of their energy to maintain the order of the panicked people and provide the necessary survival guarantees.
This further weakens Gemini's ability to mobilize for war.
Even the inside is in chaos, so how can we talk about resisting foreign enemies?
Therefore, the Locke Consortium's fleet received the galaxies one by one almost without bloodshed, and then continued to create more refugee waves.
The ever-falling galaxies made even the people of galaxies that had not been invaded start to panic, and then dragged their families and fled to the other three star regions, which were safer.
This undoubtedly further exacerbated the spread of chaos.
Burning the flames of war to the enemy's hinterland is the advantage of the away game, but Gemini has to swallow the bitter fruit of the door being wide open and the defense failing.
"It's enough to drive out the refugees, why destroy the planet?
Such an approach... It seems that it does not seem to want to occupy the development colony at all, but it seems to be deliberately creating panic and exerting psychological pressure on the top management of Gemini?
What does the other party want to do..."
