Let you do a copy, you do Wuchang: Great Wall Watch

"Yes, sir!" Leo nodded: "And the number of warships we currently have is sufficient to maintain the defense line. The important thing is to increase the diversity of the fleet and avoid loopholes in a single tactic!"

"Okay, let's follow your plan!" Sterkar nodded with satisfaction: "Elena, provide technical support to Leo and arrange resources to develop new ships as soon as possible!"

"Yes, Lord Pioneer!" Elena responded immediately.

As soon as he finished speaking, Holden appeared at the door again: "Sir, there is news!" He frowned and seemed to be unable to speak.

"I have some bad news about resources."

"What's wrong?" Sterkar frowned slightly.

"Our peripheral resource mining team has encountered some troubles!" Holden said solemnly, "In recent days, we have seen large-scale hostile activities in the peripheral mining areas, especially those galactic pirates, who are larger than we expected and have begun to harass our resource mining team.

Our existing defenses are not enough!"

"Galactic Pirates?" A cold light flashed in Sterkar's eyes: "These guys really won't give up!"

Leo frowned, "Sir, how many pirates are there? We need to come up with a strategy to deal with them!"

Holden coughed and lowered his voice: “According to our intelligence, the pirate fleet has about ten warships. Although it does not look particularly powerful, their tactics are very flexible, and they are good at launching surprise attacks without warning.

This makes it difficult for our warships to detect it in advance, especially with our current fleet configuration, it is difficult to mount an effective defense! "

Sterkar took a deep breath, and after a brief silence, he finally spoke: “Leo, Holden, you two go and solve this problem.

Put the safety of the resource mining team first. No matter what, we can't let the pirates succeed easily!"

"Understood, Master Pioneer!" The two agreed almost at the same time.

"Holden, go prepare some resources for the front line to ensure that our warships can hold on!" Stekar said firmly: "Leo, arrange for the warships to attack.

You should know how to fight!"

"Yes, Master Pioneer!" Holden and Leo didn't say much. They nodded at the same time and turned to leave.

"Savior, keep a close eye on the enemy's movements and report to me at any time!" Stekar turned to Savile, his words full of cold command.

"Understood, Lord Pioneer!" Xavier agreed with a solemn expression, and then began to operate on the console, mobilizing interstellar probes and spy satellites to collect information on the movements of the pirate fleet.

At this time, the audience in the live broadcast room also became active.

[Fuck, the pirates are coming again! This is too fast. I just finished talking about how to deal with the resource problem, and now I run into trouble. It's really awesome! ]

[Hahaha, Leo and Holden are too busy. They are completely arranged by the pioneers. They don't have a chance to catch their breath! ]

[Pirates? Oh, this is a bit exciting. I feel that the next battle will definitely not be easy! ]

[Interesting, the pirates are here, will a big war break out in the next plot? Looking forward to it! ]

[I feel like this kid Stekar is getting more and more powerful. He's not even afraid of pirates. He's really too tough! ]

[I still think that resources are the most important. Pirates are a minor problem that can be solved by fighting them. The key is to have enough resources so that you can fight against stronger opponents later!]

"Lord Pioneer, the outer fleet is ready and is speeding towards the target area!" Leo's voice came from the communicator again.

"Very good!" Sterkar nodded: "Remember, pirates have only one goal, and that is to rob resources.

Our goal is not only to preserve these resources, but also to destroy their fleet in one fell swoop, so that these pirates will not dare to commit crimes again!"

"Yes, sir!" Leo agreed, his tone firm.

"Savier, continue to monitor the enemy's movements and report immediately if there is any situation!" said Stekar.

"Lord Pioneer, the outer fleet has broken through the enemy's defense line and is approaching the pirate fleet!" Leo's voice came.

"Very good!" Sterkar nodded and turned to Holden beside him: "You go and coordinate the allocation of resources to ensure that the subsequent fleet can hold on, especially the fuel and ammunition of those warships. There can't be any mistakes!"

"Understood, Master Pioneer!" Holden responded immediately and quickly turned and left.

Stekar sighed softly and glanced out the window.

Through the huge panoramic windows of the palace, one can see that many warships outside have begun to shuttle through the space, arranged in neat formations, ready for the next battle.

He knew that today's battle was not just a small-scale confrontation for their fleet, but more like a test.

Whether their defense line can be solid and whether the fleet's combat effectiveness can meet expectations will be most directly answered in this battle.

"Elena, how is the research department?" Stekar turned his head and asked, his eyes slightly gloomy.

Elena was busy at her console, her fingers sliding quickly on the virtual interface. It was obvious that she had grasped the progress of the entire scientific research department.

“Sir, the current progress is relatively smooth. Although the research on quantum engines is progressing slowly, we have made initial breakthroughs.

In addition, regarding the technology related to the defense-enhanced warship, I believe that the prototype design can be initially completed within a month.

As for the research and development of light battleships and reactors, resource allocation has already begun, and it is expected that certain experimental data will be obtained within two weeks! "

"One month?" Sterkar raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone: "We don't need one month, but faster.

The pirates may attack at any time, especially with those quantum engines you just mentioned. I'm afraid we can't delay any longer!"

Elena frowned slightly: “I understand, sir.

However, the research and development of quantum engines is inherently complex, involving too many unknown factors and requiring precise calculations and coordination among multiple parties.

If we just speed it up, I'm afraid it will affect the overall effect!"

"Speeding up is necessary!" Sterkar's voice was deep and powerful: "This is the reality you must face.

You must think clearly, if we cannot solve the problem of the quantum engine in a short period of time, we will not have enough advantage in the next battle.

Resource extraction is now being harassed by pirates and fleet construction requires more support. Any delay may lead to the failure of our plan.

You need to send more people and do your best to solve the problem of the quantum engine!" Elena did not argue anymore, but nodded, her expression became more determined: "I understand, sir.

I will do my best to speed up the research and development progress!"

"Okay!" Stekar nodded, having made the decision in his heart.

"Okay, the battle is about to begin, and I need each of you to do your best!" After saying that, he looked out the door and stood up silently.

"Master Pioneer, please wait a moment!" Suddenly, Savile's voice rang out: "I have locked onto the enemy's movements. They seem to be gathering and forming an encirclement on the periphery!"

"Encirclement?" Sterkar frowned. "Did they know we were going to attack so quickly?"

"Yes, sir!" Savile's voice was solemn: "They obviously knew about our fleet's movements a long time ago, and got the intelligence in advance through certain channels!" He stared at the screen and analyzed quickly: "Their fleet is very fast, and it is estimated that they will surround us soon!"

"This is troublesome!" Sterkar pondered for a moment, then commanded: "Leo, Holden, adjust the tactics immediately and prepare for the encirclement operation in advance!"

Leo's voice followed: "My lord, I have led the fleet to advance to the target area, but the speed and maneuverability of the enemy fleet make it difficult for us to fully predict their movements.

It seems that the enemy may have surrounded us first!"

"Then we must prepare countermeasures in advance!" Stekar said coldly, "Let our fleet not engage in a head-on fight with the enemy. Take advantage of their misjudgment of our fleet's position and take the initiative to attack the enemy's command center and communication system! We must catch them off guard!"

"Understood!" Leo responded with a decisive voice: "We will prepare a surprise attack plan, and once we get close to the enemy fleet, we will attack with all our strength!"

"Okay!" Sterkar took a deep breath, his eyes becoming more resolute: "Go ahead, remember, no compromise will be tolerated!"

As the command was given, the atmosphere in the entire palace suddenly became tense.

Everyone knew that this was not just a simple fleet conflict, but a critical moment that would determine whether they could survive in this copy in the future.

At the same time, the audience in the live broadcast room also began to get excited about this battle.

[Oh my god, we were just talking about the pirates, but now they are surrounding us! Too fast! The pioneers will have to think of a solution now!]

[Pirates are really pirates. They dare to surround us directly. They are really brave! ]

[The pioneer is in command, taking counterattacks in advance instead of confronting them head-on. This is how to outsmart the pirates! ]

[But this pirate fleet should be quite large. Ten warships are not too few. I am a little nervous! ]

[Oh my, I feel a little nervous seeing this. Can Sterkar survive this challenge? ! ]

[Don't worry, Master Pioneer will definitely be able to do it. After all, this guy is not simple, and he must have been prepared to deal with him a long time ago! ]

Sterkar stood in the command room of the royal palace, his eyes gleaming with lightning. In the holographic projection of the virtual battlefield in front of him, the pirate fleet gradually took shape and was advancing rapidly towards their resource mining area.

The information came in at a very fast speed, and the display screen kept flashing updates on the enemy ship's position, as if every refresh was hitting everyone's nerves.

"The enemy fleet is faster than we expected!" Xavier's voice came again, calm and precise.

"They have surrounded the outer mining base. The enemy obviously has a very keen sense of our fleet's movements!"

"I know!" Stekar's eyes wandered across the virtual battlefield, scanning every battleship icon, and he already had a rough plan in his mind.

He quickly dialed the communication: "Leo, what is the enemy fleet formation?"

"Lord Pioneer, the enemy fleet has formed an encirclement, and we are preparing to break in and counterattack!" Leo's voice came through the communicator, his tone calm but with a hint of urgency.

"The enemy flagship is currently in the core area of ​​the encirclement, and the commander should be their focus!"

"The enemy has a commander?" A hint of interest flashed in Sterkar's eyes: "That makes it easier!"

"Yes, sir!" Leo agreed, "The enemy's command ship is currently a certain distance away from the other warships, so the chance of a surprise attack is very high!"

"Very good!" Sterkar nodded, his voice sonorous and powerful: "Your mission is very simple, directly attack the enemy's command ship, destroy it, and disrupt the enemy's command system.

Then choose whether to launch a large-scale counterattack based on the situation. Remember, try to stay mobile and avoid being surrounded by the enemy! "

"Understood, Master Harbinger.

We will act according to the instructions!" Leo replied immediately.

Sterkar hung up the call and turned to look at Elena: "How is the progress of the quantum engine?"

Elena did not answer immediately, but looked down at the data on the console: “Sir, regarding the accelerated progress of the quantum engine, I have mobilized additional manpower and resources.

Although we couldn’t complete the prototype in a short period of time, we were able to complete the preliminary experiments within two days and at least achieve some functions! ”

"Well, at least we have time!" Sterkar nodded, and suddenly turned to Holden and said, "All resource allocations must be ensured not to be interfered with. Pirates are only a temporary trouble. In the long run, the real threat will come from other places!"

Holden was slightly stunned, and then replied: “Sir, I will arrange the resource reserves to ensure that there are no problems!”

"That's good!" Without saying anything more, Stekar waved his hand to signal them to leave.

The ensuing battle was far more than just a simple pirate siege.

This battle will determine whether he can successfully accumulate enough resources and pave the way for future challenges.

At this time, the battlefield outside has entered a white-hot stage.

Leo's fleet of warships has begun to advance deep into the enemy's encirclement.

Sterkar's plan was very simple and direct: the enemy fleet formation did not have enough flexibility, and although the encirclement was tight, once the core command ship was broken, the entire formation would be in chaos.

As for pirates, although they are not lacking in combat experience, they are, after all, just guerrilla fleets and do not have a strict command system like the regular army.

As long as the attack is fatal, their combat intentions can be completely destroyed.

Sterkar's plan seems simple, but it has a profound meaning. (End of this chapter)
