Chapter 834: Space Blockade Technology
The insect-beast war in Omgeria was a huge threat that frightened the entire universe. But after the expeditionary vanguard of the alliance arrived and won the battle of Exit 7 with a resolute attitude and at great sacrifice, and successfully defended the Steel Flame Furnace, they found that this disaster did not seem as difficult as they had imagined, at least it was not the real end of the world.
The alliance's army, led by Tai Shichen, came as a savior. They did not care about the gains and losses, and on the battlefield, they often stood at the most difficult front line, plugging the biggest loopholes, and would not let go until the crisis was resolved, leaving the defense line to the local organized troops for defense.
They did not treat their troops as consumables or cannon fodder and throw them to the front line to fight, which won them a lot of favor.
——Although, Taishichen actually didn't consider this. He just thought from a purely military perspective. If I hand over the key battles to those local troops, they might cause me some trouble, and I would have to take the blame in the end. It would be better to solve the problem right from the beginning.
He fought for a total of nine months in the five star fields surrounding the Ohm and Lilia star fields, and the entire unbreakable defense line was finally declared a success.
The exits of the eleven Ohm and Lilia star regions to the outside world were all blocked. The eleven worlds on the side of the star tunnel close to the outside world were already under human control, which greatly curbed the overflow of the green-skinned orcs.
Of course, this so-called "blocking" is not complete. After all, if the navy cannot defeat the opponent and the jump point of the star tunnel cannot be completely locked, then the enemy can bypass this difficult planet and attack other places.
But when fighting against the Greenskins and Zerg, this problem is not too big. These two races are not completely brainless, but strategically, they rarely choose to skip the target in front of them and attack elsewhere. When they encounter a difficult problem, unlike the human civil war or dealing with Chaos traitors, they will suddenly use the astral tunnel to jump to other places. The Greenskins and Zerg often choose to bite the bullet.
On the other hand, the alliance also came up with a new technology.
【Space Blockade】
This is one of the few very useful technologies that Gu Hang has extracted in the past few decades. The product is the ability to create a huge device with a diameter of about 900 meters. The function is that all navigation methods that rely on the subspace within a one-light-year radius of the world where the device is installed will be suppressed.
When subspace travel was suppressed, almost all current methods of interstellar travel were affected.
The ancient warp navigation is no longer usable, which means that Chaos invasion will become difficult; the astral tunnel is essentially a way of navigation through the warp, but it is safer. When the warp navigation is banned, it can no longer be used. The navigation of the greenskins and the navigation of the Zerg also use the warp.
Of course, there are also conventional ways of sailing. However, under conventional sub-light speed sailing, the distance of three light years is too far, and it takes a long time, often ten years.
Such a long journey time is hard to accept in a war. Moreover, after running out, the cosmic astronomical conditions in the unfamiliar area are uncertain. It is not easy to find a jump point, and you may get lost.
It is dangerous to travel in the subspace, but is the real universe a particularly safe place? Traveling in the desolate universe is not much better.
Placing the space blockade on the planet basically announced that the incoming fleet would not be able to leave. The only option for the attacker was to launch a ground attack and blow up the space blockade facilities to complete the task.
This equipment is very expensive, almost as expensive as a cruiser, but compared to its strategic value, its value is quite high.
After extracting this technology, Gu Hang couldn't wait to give the order to quickly build a production line in the Dragon Eagle Star Region.
So far, there are three production lines, each in a different world, and there are more than twenty finished products.
They were mainly sent to the northern battlefield to be placed in some key fortress worlds for defense, to block the enemies that kept emerging from the scarlet scars and to harass and attack the defense lines.
It played a big role, and the Chaos enemies who rushed in rashly were stunned. They had to rush to the ground against the perfect defense of the fortress world, and of course they ended up hitting their heads on the rocks, breaking their heads and bleeding.
Then, they would either be wiped out in the process of attacking the fortress world, or flee in disgrace after the attack failed, use conventional navigation methods to leave the area covered by the space blockade, and then look for a new jump point to escape.
In short, life is not easy.
Even if a fortress world is breached by force occasionally, the price the enemy has to pay is often very high. Moreover, the human army can also hold out for a long time with the help of the fortress world. After the space blockade equipment is destroyed, it usually doesn't take long for the human support army to arrive.
With the powerful weapon of Space Blockade, the overall defense on the northern line has become much more stable.
After the battle situation on the northern front stabilized, the production capacity of the space blockers became a little surplus, so some were distributed to the western and southern fronts.
This thing can play a big role in the Battle of Omgeria.
Currently, three worlds that have been attacked by spillover attacks from enemies within the star field have been equipped with this equipment.
From this perspective, the unbreakable defense line has been successfully established from a military perspective.
On the other hand, from a political perspective, Taishichen's achievements are still outstanding.
He was not impatient because of the numerous meetings, nor was he unwilling to communicate with mortals. He patiently listened to the needs of dozens or even hundreds of important forces, big and small, in the five star regions. He tried his best to meet the reasonable parts; he also had enough courage to reject the unreasonable parts. Rebels, those who pretended to obey but did not pay back, and those who got what they wanted but did not give back would also be resolutely suppressed.
No matter the conflicts between these forces, whether they are disputes over interests or centuries-old grudges, Taishi Chen is able to balance and suppress them well, ensuring that everyone has the same goal and can work together.
After receiving the detailed report from the front line, Gu Hang was a little surprised.
It's rare to find such a talent among Space Marines.
It seems that if there are similar battles in the future that require political leadership, the descendants of the dragon will be a good choice.
They don't look like blood sharks.
Unless it was a purely destructive military action, Gu Hang would definitely not let the Blood Shark and Ghost Shark regiments go out to work alone. They had to be tied with a chain around their necks, otherwise, while they could ensure that they could kill the enemy, the damage they caused would also require the people who would clean up the mess to spend several times more energy to deal with it.
In this sense, it is particularly appropriate to let the Dragon Legion fight in wars like Ohmgeria.
Of course, the fact that Taishichen was able to perform so well could not be attributed solely to the dragon's gene seed. Taishichen himself also played a big role.
I didn't pay much attention to him before, so I misjudged him.
The most important thing is that Tai Shichen is not a new Space Marine trained by the Alliance. He is the old captain of the Spear of the Dragon King.
He is not from the Alliance, and he has not had the opportunity to go to Zhongsi College and invest grace points for political commissar training. Gu Hang is often a little concerned about such people and will not invest too many resources.
But this time, Taishichen made Gu Hang quite satisfied with his performance, and finally made Gu Hang break his past principles.
He immediately found Taishichen in the hero interface, invested grace points, and raised his level to the upper limit.
This pull surprised Gu Hang again: Taishichen's level could actually be pulled to LV8!
This is quite rare.
However, just as he had thought before, Taishichen's own skill tree was not that of a classic Space Marine.
For most of the powerful Space Marines, after they are leveled up, you can generally see their attributes, specialties, and characteristics, most of which are related to combat. As for firearms, the use of hot weapons, cold weapon combat techniques, the use of armor, agility of body movements... these specific directions are uncertain, but they are all for combat.
There are also a small number of people who have the talent to command and direct battles, and will have some similar skills.
However, people like Taishichen, who have some political points and some charm and affinity, are rare.
However, this is actually a limitation for him.
For example, if Alvin were to reach level 7, he would be able to become a champion of the regiment. But for Taishichen, it was different.
Before he was enlightened, he was probably at the top of the company champions. To be honest, for a chapter leader, it was a bit embarrassing not to have the combat power of a chapter champion. In the entire Dragon King's Spear, there was no top expert at the level of a chapter champion.
And now that Gu Hang has upgraded him to LV8, he has been pushed to the championship of the group.
That means that even if he is pushed to level 9 in the future, he will not be able to reach the level of the Emperor Champion. At best, he will be average among the Chapter Champions.
This has something to do with his qualifications, which were largely assigned to non-combat directions.
But it's okay.
There are many Space Marines with strong combat capabilities, but compound talents like Taishichen are even rarer.
Under his integration, the Unbreakable Defense Line also did a good job in politics, and was able to integrate the forces of several surrounding star fields very well.
When the military and politics are connected, it can be said that they are as solid as a rock.
The most dangerous time has passed, and the overflowing enemies have been stopped. At most, there are some that have leaked out in the past, and they are still wreaking havoc in various worlds, but they are no longer a threat. After the gaps are blocked, we can slowly clean them up step by step.
At the same time, Tai Shichen and his Dragon King's Spear Regiment were not always fighting alone.
Among the many local forces, the most special ones are actually the various Space Marine chapters.
In the five star fields in the advancing universe, there are a total of seven regiments that are still "alive", but the current situation of each of them is not very good. Not to mention full staffing, only one of the seven regiments has more than 500 people.
After the arrival of the Spear of the Dragon King, Tai Shichen communicated and chatted with them one by one, and the actions of the Alliance against many war groups in the Magre Universe were also quite frightening.
Those who obey prosper, while those who disobey not only perish, but are thoroughly branded with a very bad reputation.
In addition, the seven groups bowed their heads at the moment, with the goal of saving their home planet and their own star field, and fighting against the alien threat that was close at hand.
All these reasons combined ultimately made them choose to bow their heads.
Taishichen's use of these chapters was consistent with his own. He gathered them together, and with the addition of the Spear of the Dragon King itself, he was able to mobilize up to 2,400 Space Marines at one point.
Only, there aren’t as many now.
Mainly during the war, when the fighting becomes fierce, there will be a lot of casualties among the Space Marines.
Now, the number of space warriors he has is less than sixteen thousand.
But it is still a massive force.
The alliance did not allow him to continue fighting with the existing forces at hand.
For several months, the Western Front Expeditionary Command was not just there to do nothing.
They sent more troops, from ships to land forces, to continuously strengthen the military strength at Taishichen's disposal.
In fact, the first main force of the expeditionary force will arrive in a month at most.
This batch of main forces included four fully staffed regiments after replenishment! This allowed Taishichen to have over 5,000 interstellar warriors!
At that time, they would no longer have to defend the so-called unbreakable line of defense, but could start to take some actions inside Omgeria.
The commander of this operation will still be Taishichen.
He has already impressed Gu Hang and he is playing very well, so there is no need to change the coach as originally planned.
And at this juncture, something that had been on guard against for a long time but finally happened suddenly turned the unbreakable defense line upside down.
