However, as Zhu Lei's breakthrough speed accelerated, the fleet's losses became larger and larger, and some battleships even began to suffer losses.
So Zhu Lei's face became extremely ugly. After all, the capital ship started to suffer damage, which meant that besides people from Baiyun Civilization and Atlantis Civilization, the Ming Empire's own personnel also began to suffer losses.
This is very unacceptable to Zhu Lei, "Order all non-main warships in the fleet to give priority to protecting the safety of the capital ship."
This is due to certain problems in the coordination between capital ships and non-capital ships in the fleet of the Ming Empire, which caused the capital ships to start to suffer damage.
But it’s no wonder, after all, Baiyun Civilization and Atlantis Civilization have only joined the Ming Empire and become its vassal states for such a short time, not to mention that they must first be familiar with the spaceship driving methods of the Ming Empire, and secondly, they must cooperate with the Ming Empire. Although the fleet has undergone many simulated drills before departure, but the simulated drills are not actual combat after all, so some mistakes are inevitable.
As the losses increased, Zhu Lei and the others had to use space bombs to attack spaceships that broke through five astronomical units. hurt.
Although the capital ships of the Ming Empire are not comparable to small spaceships in terms of protective shields and armor, no matter how powerful the armor and protective shields are, they are like paper to the spaceships of biological civilization. use.
"The Fifth Fleet applied for the use of special artillery shells. There was a hole in our defense area, and three large biological spaceships from biological civilization entered."
"Permitted to use."
With the use of special space shells, the number of casualties in the fleet finally began to drop, but the stock of special shells also began to show a rapid decline.
You must know that although Zhu Lei's fleet is a main fleet, but before coming to this star field, they had already fought a large-scale interstellar war with the Mandala civilization, and the consumption of special shells was already very high. Seriously, although there has been a resupply before entering the wormhole, the special shells have not been resupplied much.
If it is like now, then Zhu Lei and his fleet will not last long, and the special shells will be exhausted.
"How long will it take us to break through the third blockade line."
As time went on, Zhu Lei's face became extremely ugly. He thought it was very simple to break through the blockade.
Unexpectedly, the situation has become so severe now. Apart from the endless sea of creatures around them, the biological spaceships several light years away are also flying towards the Ming Empire fleet at a very high speed.
You must know that the Ming Empire is not short of money, technology, or resources, but it is short of people. Although the Ming Empire has hundreds of millions of people, for a quasi-sixth stage of the universe civilization, such a population It is still too small. Compared with other sixth-level or quasi-level-1 civilizations in the universe, the current population of the Ming Empire is less than 10/[-] of others.
Therefore, for the Ming Empire, everyone is a very precious asset, especially the soldiers who can enter the Suzaku Army of the Ming Empire through many selections, and the people who can enter the Suzaku Army of the Ming Empire basically have Nascent Soul Stage and above. They are all the best of the younger generation of the Ming Empire.
So Zhu Lei turned his head and asked the communication soldier, "When will the response fleet of the Barabara Civilization arrive?"
"My lord, according to the answer from Barabba Civilization, their support fleet has arrived less than a hundred light-years away from us, but the support fleet has also fallen into the biological sea of biological civilization like us, and it will not be able to catch up in a short while Here we are."
Zhu Lei was very disappointed when he heard the communication soldier's words. You must know that when Zhu Lei and the others set off from the Atlantis galaxy, the Barabba Civilization's response fleet also set off at the same time, but the fleet of the Ming Empire had already marched for nearly a month. Thousands of light years, and broke through two blockades, but the Barabba civilization has not even reached the third blockade, how could this not disappoint Zhu Lei.
We must know that Barabba civilization is also a five-level top-level civilization that is famous in the galaxy, a five-level top-level veteran civilization, but in the war with this biological civilization, it will be so ineffective in the war with the biological civilization now.
Although Zhu Lei and the others are very skeptical about the combat effectiveness of the Barabba civilization, the Ming Empire will never give up on the globular star cluster ahead.
Not to mention that the globular star cluster in front is the bridgehead for foreign civilizations to enter the Milky Way, even the top spirit stone mine in the globular star cluster ahead is worth the Ming Empire's occupation of that globular star cluster at all costs.
But the fleet paid a huge price. After traveling for two light years in the dense biological ocean, the last spaceship of the Ming Empire finally got rid of the entanglement of these biological spaceships of biological civilization.
At this time, there are not many small and medium-sized unmanned combat spaceships left in the entire fleet. Even the small and medium-sized combat spaceships with manned forces have almost lost more than half, and almost every medium-to-large spaceship has injuries. It is conceivable that How much did the Ming Empire pay to cross the blockade.
The entire fleet lost countless personnel. The Baiyun civilization alone lost hundreds of millions of people. You must know that all of these lost people are young adults, but in such a large-scale interstellar war, they are just a bunch of cold numbers. That's all.
And the loss of people in Atlantis civilization is nearly [-] million. You must know that the treatment of people in Atlantis civilization is much better than that of Baiyun civilization. Most of them take medium and large spaceships. Whether it is the size of the spaceship, the defense or other performance, it is not comparable to small combat spaceships.
In addition to these two subordinate civilizations, even the Ming Empire itself lost more than 1000 combatants. You must know that these are all soldiers with Nascent Soul stage cultivation, not ordinary people without cultivation, so in order to wear Through the third blockade, the damage caused has far exceeded Zhu Lei's imagination.
Such a huge loss was the first time that the Ming Empire suffered such a huge loss since it entered the interstellar era.
Although Zhu Lei feels very uncomfortable, there will definitely be casualties in war, not to mention that this biological civilization is a sixth-level civilization, and these biological spaceships are all spaceships with top-level fifth-level strength, and the number is even greater than that of Zhu Lei and the others. Dozens or even hundreds of times the size of the fleet.
And in the process of crossing the blockade, Zhu Lei and his fleet eliminated at least 2/3 of the opponent's warships this time. Such a huge result is already very remarkable. After all, when the number reaches a certain scale, it will cause qualitative changes. If it is replaced by spaceships of other civilizations, it is impossible to pass through such a sea of creatures with the same number.
