From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars.

Chapter 641: Regular Jump In
Amber didn't know at this moment that Marshal Trafalgar had prepared a 'big gift' for him at the assembly center.

He is currently busy checking the briefing sent by Guterres on the front line.

Simply put, the battle situation over there was not as smooth as expected.
Originally, Amber and Guterres both believed that after the elite troops were lured away, the remaining federal fleet would not cause too much trouble. After all, there were still two super-flagships on the front line.

But after the two sides actually exchanged fire, the fleets of Atlas and the Renaissance Alliance realized that the other side was still a regular navy after all. Although its strength and training were not as good as before, it was definitely not something that the previous "rebels" could challenge.

Moreover, the acting commander-in-chief of the federal fleet on the front line is also Guterres' former partner - Griezmann, who was promoted to the rank of lieutenant general because of his outstanding performance in the "capital coup incident".

Although this newly promoted vice admiral did not have any special qualities among the commanders of the Federal Navy, especially in joint operations, he often played the role of a "green leaf", creating opportunities for friendly forces to win.

But once it comes to the task of commanding a combat mission alone, this person will stand out for his steady and cautious approach and will never act rashly.

Just like the situation on the front battlefield right now, when Griezmann discovered that in addition to the two troublesome super-flags, Atlas also had a new type of warship that, according to intelligence, could launch attacks at a distance of one light second, he quickly ordered the fleets to take turns to cover the retreat, and at the same time sent out a fast formation composed of light cruisers and destroyers to try to interfere with the "Spectrum Destroyer" strike team.

On the side of the confrontation line close to the Federation, there is an asteroid belt with a length of 220 million kilometers. This asteroid is a domestic assembly point and supply point for the Federation Navy, and it is also a "rich mining area."

In addition to logistical supply capabilities, this asteroid belt also has a number of fixed defense platforms deployed. After the confrontation began, a number of new firepower points were urgently added.

So when Griezmann commanded the fleet to retreat to the vicinity of the asteroid belt, he only needed to command the fleet to hold on there. He was not in a hurry anyway, so he could just waste time and it would be over. The Atlas side should be more anxious at this time.——
This battle briefing from Guterres finally made Amber determined to dismantle the Federation's proton annihilation bomb assembly center while being pursued by three fleets.

After the fleet used the current speed difference with the pursuers to quickly increase the distance, Amber also prepared the fleet to deal with the outer defense platform of the assembly center based on her experience in her previous life.

In his memory, in addition to the outer defense platform, the proton annihilation bomb assembly center also had another defensive 'gadget' - the satellite gun array.

But in the history set in the game, the construction of this satellite artillery array was suspended for a long time due to the war. It was not until Franklin became the first president of the new federation that construction began again, and it took a lot of time.

The satellite gun array that theoretically defends the assembly center should now be a large number of construction frames and "parts packages" fixed nearby.

Therefore, Amber's plan is that after the fleet approaches the proton annihilation bomb assembly center, with the assistance of the "Eternal" main gun, it will first dismantle an outer defense platform on the defense surface, and then let the fleet maintain this safe direction to carry out the demolition work.

Although the Proton Annihilation Bomb Assembly Center itself is not equipped with defensive weapons other than the defense platform, the Federation has still invested in the protection of this space production facility.

The facility has a protective layer on the outside that is several times thicker than the main armor of a battleship. In addition, the internal titanium alloy structure is more complex and stronger than the battleship frame. It even takes into account the design of diverting the heavy metal particle jet that corrodes the armor plate after being hit by a heavy particle cannon.
In addition, the large deflection force field array powered by a large number of fusion reactors is the first line of defense to block external attacks. Both the total power and the defense threshold are extremely high, and it is also not that easy to deal with. In fact, the protection design of the proton annihilation bomb assembly center also evolved into the design concept of the first generation of federal mobile fortresses.

Although the research on memory metal is not as in-depth as that of the Star Dragon Empire, the Federation Mobile Fortress has an extremely high-power deflection field and extremely thick external main armor, and its outstanding feature is its powerful force.

So even if Amber had a super flagship and the firepower of an entire fleet, it would still take a lot of effort to attack the proton annihilation bomb assembly center, not to mention that Amber wanted to cause as much damage to the assembly center as possible, preferably to destroy it completely, which would take even more time.

Originally, in Amber's plan, if the defense of this assembly center was not strong, he might personally lead a commando team to sneak in and secretly blow up the power distribution center, rendering the huge deflection field array of this facility ineffective.

But with pursuers behind him, this road was obviously not feasible, so he could only use other methods to buy enough "demolition" time for the fleet.

Of course, theoretically speaking, the best option at the moment should be to jump away with the fleet.

But Amber looked at the assembly center that was already in front of him, and thought about the front line that was not progressing as smoothly as expected. He could not convince himself to return empty-handed.

After all, now that only he has opened up the situation, the Atlas fleet will not be so passive and the battle situation will become clear again.

Moreover, at this very moment, the defense of the proton annihilation bomb assembly center is at its weakest. Amber knows very well that if she fails this time, next time she brings people to attack here, this place will most likely be completely "fortified".

Amber: "Has the Federation fleet caught up?"

Hearing Amber's question, Ramos immediately came to his side and said, "Three fleets are in pursuit. Judging from the increasingly smaller speed difference, the other side should be speeding up regardless of the cost. By the way, the air mines we scattered have affected their Third Fleet. Although the direct loss should not be great, it did cause their Third Fleet to be somewhat out of touch."

"Let the reconnaissance ships and special ships keep an eye on the movements of the enemy's damaged ships without exposing themselves. If they are moving towards the area I marked before the war, report immediately using encrypted lines! In addition, separate five escort teams to form a squadron and wait for instructions. The squadron code name is 'Poseidon'."

"Yes, Boss!"

After speaking to Ramos, Amber looked at Gatheris, the ship's controller, who was already on standby.

"Cerris, all fleets, load electromagnetic reconnection cannons with super-heavy assault rods! Once we reach the designated combat zone and break through the outer orbital defense platform, attack the assembly center with all your might!"
