Chapter 175: Jumping Into the Face Strategy
After the New Year, when the situation on Westminster was completely stable, Isabel also used the psychic entanglement communication crystal to call back Alanita, who had jumped to a safe airspace and was on standby.
For long-lived elves, their sense of the passage of time is different from that of humans.
The thrilling half month of Amber and Isabel was just a fleeting moment for Alanita.
In her perception, after she jumped to a safe airspace with three ships, she just raised flowers and drank tea on the ship, and slept for two more times before receiving Isabel's communication.
When the Saint Russell docked at the spaceport again, Jonathan Irons came to the spaceport in person to greet them and thanked this close business partner for his help in this incident.
For them, although they have the relationship of their daughter, Alanita and the Yuge family behind her are still respectable partners.
Not to mention that they took risks this time and came from afar to help.
So it was necessary for him to come to the spaceport in person to greet and thank them.
However, Earl Jonathan only brought his wife, Isabel's mother, with him.
This was mainly because Amber suggested in the previous conversation that the presence of Amber and Isabel should be minimized in the handling of the whole matter.
What mysterious person sneaked into the manor? No such thing!
What HCP city battle? It was done by the family's dead soldiers!
The reversal of the situation was entirely due to the wisdom and courage of the family members.
To be honest, when Amber re-arranged these plots, Jonathan's face turned red.
It was obviously his family who was caught off guard and was tricked by someone, but this change turned out to be quite bloody and epic.
But the Earl also accepted Amber's advice and acted efficiently, because doing so would make his daughter's situation safer.
So the entry and exit records of Alanita and the elf ship were all corrected to normal records.
The database of the orbital control center also erased the experience of the Saint Russell leaving the port to play low-orbit airdrop.
On the star Westminster, which has been run by the Ains family for many years, it is still easy to do these information-level tricks.
However, Amber also knows that if the Empire's intelligence department is willing to investigate, it can still find out.
However, doing so can still delay the time when he is completely exposed to the Empire's intelligence agency.
But as long as it can delay time, it is enough. Every increase in Atlas's strength will reduce the fear of the Empire's intelligence agency.
Not to mention that as long as it delays enough time, the Star Dragon Empire will be in chaos.
By then, the major forces in the Empire will be too busy to take care of Amber.
In this way, after Alanita rested for a few days in the Ains Family Manor, Amber and her party said goodbye to Count Jonathan and Jacques Cole and set off on their way home.
Yes, our Empire's Finance Minister did not leave directly after the incident.
Instead, he stayed here until now in the name of visiting relatives, and during this period, he also talked with Amber alone several times.
The content of the chat was all about the power struggle between the Imperial Royal Family, the Regent and the Princess, and the future direction of the Empire.
Amber relied on the in-depth and easy-to-understand analysis of the plot of the empire's division by the enthusiasts in the forum that year, which made Jacques Cole look up to him again.
And when saying goodbye to Amber, he gave him a secret communication line.
"Mr. Amber, it's very interesting to chat with you. I hope we will have the opportunity to communicate in depth in the future."
"It's my honor, sir, there will definitely be opportunities in the future."
After leaving Weiminster, since the fleet of the Yuge family had already set sail ten days ago, Amber and his friends didn't have to rush to reunite.
And the time it took to solve the incident in the Star Dragon Empire this time was much shorter than Amber expected.
So Amber originally planned to go back to Babel Tower to check the training situation, or go to the operation base in the asteroid belt.
However, on the Saint Russell, after seeing the recent briefing on the war between the Empire and the Federation, as well as the soaring ore prices.
Amber couldn't sit still.
First, twenty days ago, the Federation and the Empire had a large-scale fleet battle in the Carlos galaxy within the Federation, which was called the "Carlos Star Field Battle" by major news media.
Under the command of Marshal Trafalgar, the Federation Navy secretly mobilized six main fleets, and together with the garrison fleets drawn from surrounding galaxies, formed a super-large fleet of seven main fleets.
Neither the briefing nor the news report explained what tactics Marshal Trafalgar used to avoid the ultra-long-distance detection of the Empire's strategic fortress and complete the assembly.
However, Amber could probably guess some.
Marshal Trafalgar should have relied on the Federation's faster information transmission capabilities within its own territory.
According to the news sent back by a large number of quiet long-distance reconnaissance ships on the front line, the fleet avoided the long-distance detection of the fortress's gravitational wave radar array and completed the assembly under the "shadow" of the planet.
Then, relying on the advantage of more thorough exploration of the galaxy jump point within the country, the coordinates closest to the fortress were selected.
This was also a more common assembly method in later battles against strategic fortresses.
When the counterattack fleet of the Federation Navy was assembled, at a critical time point, the Sorrow Fortress led three expeditionary strike groups to break away from the Imperial offensive formation and jump to other galaxies where the unmanned fleet was located for support.
Marshal Trafalgar sat in the Federation Navy flagship "Dreadnought" and personally led this huge fleet to jump in front of the Chaos Fortress.
At this time, there were only two expeditionary strike groups around the Chaos Fortress, and the Imperial Royal Navy was at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers.
This is also the tactic that Marshal Trafalgar found to fight against the artificial celestial fortress in the battle during this period.
That is to establish an absolute numerical advantage and shorten the engagement distance to the greatest extent.
The Federation and the Empire, two countries that have not launched large-scale fleet battles for decades, are like two sponges in this war, greedily absorbing experience and enriching themselves in battle after battle.
It must be said that Trafalgar is really capable of sitting in the position of the Federation Navy Marshal.
Seven fleets broke away from the jump from a position less than 50,000 kilometers away from the Chaos Fortress, and then began to approach at maximum speed.
The Chaos Fortress is also equipped with a large number of heavy particle cannons and Focusing Iris in the front hemisphere.
But after the Federation Navy separated two fleets and held back two expeditionary strike groups as guards in a "close-range melee".
The remaining five fleets went directly to the back hemisphere of the Chaos Fortress from five directions.
Although the Chaos Fortress is still capable of directly destroying any of the fleets with its strong firepower.
But the remaining four fleets are still capable of going around the back hemisphere of the fortress and attacking the relatively fragile propulsion array.
In this case, Duke William on the Chaos Fortress finally panicked.
And the result of this battle in the Carlos star field is undoubtedly that the Federation won a tragic victory.
Although the Federation Navy completely lost a main fleet and all local garrison fleets under the attack of the Chaos Fortress's "Focusing Iris".
The other two main fleets that engaged in melee combat also basically lost their combat effectiveness.
But in the end, the Chaos Fortress was broken, making it unable to fight again in a short period of time.
The two Imperial Expeditionary Strike Groups, which served as the fortress's guards, suffered more than 65% casualties in the hand-to-hand combat.
Although, in the end, they failed to prevent the Chaos Fortress and the remaining fleet of the Empire from jumping away.
But for the Federation Navy, this battle still greatly boosted morale.
The most important thing is that it broke the myth that the Imperial strategic fortress is "invincible".
Another major impact of this battle is that both sides accelerated the pace of continued construction.
In the two countries, the price of ore, which had been rising continuously, seemed to be pushed hard by someone and continued to soar at a frightening speed.
For Amber, who had previously asked Lilith to purchase a large amount of ore through remote transactions with the remaining cash at that time, the time to cash out has come.
