Defense can take advantage of geographical location, and with the existence of the star fortress defense line, Li Xin can consume more enemy warships with smaller ship losses.
But defense is equivalent to handing the initiative to the enemy.
Although Li Xin has established two large sentry arrays within the border star fortress defense line, he is also worried that the enemy will find other ways to bypass it.
When attacking, you take the initiative, while your opponent has the geographical advantage.
There is a concept of favorable time, favorable terrain and favorable people in ancient military strategies.
In the interstellar age, time also exists, but it does not exist in the real universe, but in the subspace.
If luck is good, the sailing speed of Li Xin's fleet will be far beyond expectations. If luck is bad, the fleet may encounter a raging storm or turbulence, and its speed may be slower or even damaged.
The geographical advantage is the defense line for both sides.
Although the defense line of the Moranok Interstellar Lord State is a star fortress defense line, it also has a good war effect, especially when the opponent's main fleet is still intact.
Apart from anything else, the subspace trap in the star fortress alone is a big problem, forcing Li Xin's fleet to fight head-on.
Even if a warship is damaged, it cannot jump away from the battlefield and can only sail away at sub-light speed. This will result in many warships that could have escaped being unable to escape.
Not to mention harmony among people.
The personnel and personnel of both sides were in place, and the soldiers all had the desire to defeat their opponents.
Now, the timing is uncontrollable, but the people are all there, and the only thing left is the choice of location.
The coalition forces of the Moranok Star Lord State have more ships.
The individual combat capabilities of the Galaxy Defense Fleet's ships are stronger.
If they take the initiative to attack, how many fleets can Li Xin and the Yaru Alliance mobilize?
Five garrison fleets are needed for galactic defense, and the Yaru Alliance also has 500 ships of various types that need to stay behind to guard the star fortress defense line.
The Galaxy Defense can only deploy twelve main fleets with three thousand six hundred ships, and the Yaru Alliance can deploy six main fleets with one thousand eight hundred ships.
A total of 18 main fleets and 5,400 ships of various types.
If a war breaks out between the Galactic Defense and Moranok, it will be a massive battle scene, and in the final battle, there may even be more than 10,000 warships of various types fighting.
A melee involving tens of thousands, or even more, fighter jets and tens of thousands of mechas of various levels.
At this time, even if one side can win, the losses will definitely not be low.
How to choose?
From landing in the Union to colonizing and developing to the present, every step Li Xin has taken has not been easy.
From the Walker Guardians, the Star Pirates, the Dalhash Hegemony, to the war with the Moranok Star Lords.
Li Xin accumulated such a huge fortune through hard work and struggle.
It can be said that this is all he has. If these twelve main fleets are destroyed, how many years will it take to recover their strength?
Even if there are resources and no external interference, it will take eight or nine years relying on the already greatly accelerated production capacity.
The time it takes to recover from personnel losses, especially the number of psychics, is even longer.
But once the main fleet is really destroyed, the Moranok Interstellar Lord State will definitely not let go of the galactic defense and will definitely kill all the enemies.
By then, even if the star fortress defense line can stop the enemy's offensive, the galactic defense will be drained to the last drop of blood.
So at this point, it is really difficult for Li Xin to make a decision.
Now the coalition forces of the Moranok Star Lord State can mobilize 7,800 ships. Is this the full strength of the Moranok Star Lord State?
It is still unknown.
Galaxy Defense can hide its strength, and Li Xin is also worried that Moranok will hide his strength.
Everyone in the conference room was talking in low voices, and no one dared to disturb Li Xin's thoughts.
Li Xin waved his hand and opened the star map of this star field.
This is the blueprint that the Seventh Wave once provided to Li Xin and the star map of the isolated star field of the Yelong Empire.
After taking over Moranok, they almost occupied half of the territory on this star map.
If Moranok fully unleashes its war potential, together with its allies, it can have seven or eight thousand ships of various types.
So what about the Yelong Empire?
Li Xin thought so, but suddenly he laughed again.
He had somewhat overestimated the Moranok Interstellar Lord State and the Yelong Empire.
Because Li Xin traveled through time, history changed.
To put it another way, if Li Xin had not appeared, what would have been the original course of history?
The Stinger Assault Fleet of the Yaru Alliance, the first alien fleet ever encountered at the location of the pirates, will conquer the Walker Guardians after destroying the pirates.
Subsequently, ten years later, the coalition forces of the Moranok Interstellar Lord State will go to war with the Yaru Alliance.
If there had been no human intervention in the original history, the Yaru Alliance would have surely failed, been conquered by the Moranok Interstellar Lord State, or become a vassal.
At this point, the Moranok Interstellar Lord State has more planets and more allies.
At that time, the alliance of the Moranok Interstellar Lords already included the Finu Empire, the Narbo Federation, the Dalhash Hegemony, and possibly the Yaru Alliance.
This makes it even more impossible for Moranok, who is already strong in this star field, to build a fleet with all his strength.
At that time, the Moranok Interstellar Lordship might only maintain one or two thousand ships to deal with the threat.
If the Yelong Empire came at this time, it might be able to defeat the civilization of this star field with only a small amount of force.
Or after discovering the warp storm, they retreated.
After figuring this out, Li Xin looked at the entire star map again, and his heart began to beat faster and faster.
if……
If I conquer the Moranok Star Lord State and its allies, will it be possible to sweep across the entire star field?
Li Xin looked at the names of other civilizations in the star map.
These civilizations are not currently experiencing war and are not under any threat of war.
At most, they lamented the enormity of the war between humanity's galactic defense and the Moranok interstellar lord nation, and built a few more warships as a precaution.
If Li Xin could wipe out Moranok, he could then lead the fleet to conquer another powerful country.
In Li Xin's opinion, if a ceasefire is reached at this time, the survival time of these remaining small countries will have begun to countdown.
Thinking of this, Li Xin felt a little excited.
If we can take over the entire isolation zone star field within 30 years, not to mention being able to defeat the Yelong Empire which has not yet arrived, we can at least enter a stalemate phase with them.
Thinking of this, Li Xin looked at the Moranok Interstellar Lordship again.
At this time, we must not let other civilizations become wary and must not give them time to prepare and build ships.
Once a stalemate breaks out, the surrounding civilizations will know the number of galactic defenses and the Moranok fleet, and even if they are not the ones who started the war, they will be forced to join the arms race.
Time waits for no one!
