Chapter 700 Rapid Advancement

"All enemy ships have been captured, and there was no resistance. The prisoners have been gathered in the cargo hold of the warships!" After a while, the Imperial Fleet received a reply from the Marines.

Eighteen thousand warships of the Imperial Fleet escorted the 100,000 Federation warships back to the forward base.

In the next period of time, the main fleet of the Empire will go out to harass the colonies of the Federation.

And these captured warships will be sent to the shipyard for repair, and after removing unnecessary equipment, they will be used as landing ships and ground support ships of the Imperial Fleet.

After this battle, the Imperial Fleet not only did not lose any warships, but also greatly increased the number of warships in its fleet.

The supply lines that were originally somewhat tight also became loose, and the number of troops that the Empire could deploy to the surface of the planet in each battle became more.

With more landing ships, the Imperial Fleet can finally let go.

The main force of the Empire began to carry out a crazy blitzkrieg. Every time it passed a planet, the Imperial Fleet would directly bombard the defense measures and space stations in this star system from a distance.

Then, after destroying all the enemy's units in orbit, they will start bombarding important military facilities on the ground.

After destroying all the Federation military facilities that can be observed on the surface, the Imperial Fleet will set sail again and rush to the next star system.

The whole process will not take more than two days! Within two days, the Imperial Fleet will resolve the battle and head to the next star system.

In this way, including the flight time on the way, the Empire can destroy all the Federation fleets and space stations in a star system every three days on average.

At this time, the warships captured by the Empire will land on these planets with tens of millions of clone soldiers and millions of mecha tanks.

Ten million well-equipped clone soldiers, with mecha tanks and warships in orbit, can be said to be unstoppable.

Every time the Federation finally organized a counterattack, it would be blown into a pile of debris by the Imperial warships hovering in orbit with orbital guns.

Not only that, the Empire also deployed a large number of piercing drones on these planets.

The piercing drones with streamlined design, anti-gravity engines and gravity engines can still maintain extremely high combat effectiveness in the atmosphere, and their maneuverability is no less than that in the vacuum environment of the universe.

These piercing drones are not equipped with machine guns or missiles, and they completely use themselves as missiles to launch collision attacks on the Federation's fighters.

Its hot melt armor that can melt through the armor of warships can easily melt through their thin armor when it hits these fighters.

And their flexible bodies and outer shields allow them to easily pass the distance before approaching the enemy warships.

Moreover, the Empire's piercing drones have never acted alone, and the low construction cost allows this type of drone to be equipped on a large scale.

The number of piercing drones appearing on the battlefield is often several times more than that of enemy fighters.

As long as the black drone swarm presses in front of the enemy's fighter formation, no fighter can escape.

Moreover, this type of drone can not only conduct air combat, but also be transported in large quantities to the planets that need to be captured after the Empire's transportation force is sufficient.

This type of drone can use gravity acceleration to hit the top of the enemy's armored unit where the defense is relatively weak at high altitude, and directly penetrate the enemy's armored unit.

And because the anti-gravity engine used by this type of drone can ignore the direction, these piercing drones can also fly out of the wreckage of the enemy's armored unit backwards and continue to rush to the next target.

Now, swarms of piercing drones cruising in the air can be seen on the battlefields of various planets. Wherever there is a suspicious target, these drone swarms will rush up and turn the opponent into a pile of ashes.

With the help of drones and orbital support, the Empire quickly captured a large number of Federation colonies.

Basically, as soon as the Imperial Fleet left, the landing fleet would arrive and begin to occupy the planet.

When the Imperial Fleet destroyed the Federation warships, space stations and military bases in the next star system, the Empire's landing forces almost completed the occupation of this planet and rushed to the star system that had just been cleared by the Imperial Fleet.

In just one month, the Federation had lost fifteen colonies, and the resources in these colonies greatly strengthened the power of the Imperial Fleet.

The transport ships captured from these planets liberated the warships captured by the Empire.

These warships can also join the battle, disrupt the enemy's formation from the side, and create opportunities for the main force of the empire.

Just after a month, the third imperial fleet arrived in this river system through teleportation.

This time, the imperial fleet is still 8,000 unmanned Zeus-class warships and 2,000 large transport ships loaded with supplies and equipment.

After this supplement, the number of the empire's main fleet in this river system has reached 26,000!

The new 8,000 warships were separately assigned to a group and launched a surprise attack on the star system of the Federation together with the first group.

The combat efficiency of the empire has increased in vain, and the speed at which the Federation loses its colonies is getting faster and faster.

At this time, the bad nature of this multi-civilization federation was revealed.

Because these member states are still independent political systems, these people do not have enough sense of crisis about the invasion of other member states.

They thought that since they were not invaded, they could lose the colony and weaken the power of this civilization.

In this mentality, although each civilization was mobilizing its fleet, the speed of mobilizing the fleet was pitifully slow.

Soon, the fleet of this member state began to be unable to support it, and they directly gave up the colonies and wanted to fight to the death with the imperial fleet.

More than 800,000 main battleships and more than 2 million battleships of various types gathered in the other party's capital star system.

Of course, their intention to fight a decisive battle was unilaterally speculated by the empire. In fact, this civilization just wanted to keep the capital star system and wait for rescue from other member states of the federation.

After misunderstanding their meaning, the empire directly gathered 20,000 Zeus-class battleships and rushed to their capital star system.

The remaining 6,000 Zeus-class battleships went to occupy the colonies abandoned by this civilization together with the battleships captured by the empire.

20,000 imperial battleships soon arrived in the capital star system of this civilization.

Unlike other star systems, as the most important political and economic center of this civilization, the other party has deployed a large number of fortresses and unmanned artillery in the capital star system!
