The Strongest Interstellar Commander

For the operation, the Human Federation had prepared a total of 100,000 warships that would be commanded by Lin Fan.

The Commanders were Emma, ??Li Cangduo, Sophia, Fujiwara Ayako, and Carol. Lin Fan’s Adjutant was also temporarily represented by the former Chief of Staff, Will, as Liang Xue did not participate.

After all, the battle would last for several years. If Lin Fan also brought Liang Xue, no one would take care of their children.

In the end, Liang Xue stayed in the Shanhai Pass.

Speaking of Lin Fan’s children, Lin Yu was now seven years old, and Lin Kexin was six years old.

Who knows if it’s because of Lin Fan’s physique and brain being abnormal, but Lin Yu and Lin Kexin had been very special since they were young. Currently, the seven year old Lin Yu was no inferior to an adult, who had not used Gene Enhancement Medicine. Her Brain Development had also reached a terrifying 15%! As for Lin Kexin, she was not much worse than Lin Yu at all.

Further, this was under the premise that the two of them were still young. Their bodies had not yet fully developed, nor had they used Gene Enhancement and Brain Development Medicine.

One could just imagine how terrifying this was!

October 81 of the Federal Calendar.

Babawi Empire, Small Trading Hub No. 11765.

According to the Star System Grading Rubrics of the Human Federation, this was a Grade 3 Star System.

A large number of spaceships of different styles shuttled back and forth in the void, all of which were from the caravans of several Civilizations from around the Small Trading Hub.

According to the Trade Network of the Babawi Empire, on the main arm of the Orion’s Arm Branch, all Civilizations would transport trade goods to adjacent Trade Hubs.

Here, one could trade with other Civilizations, as well as with the Babawi Empire.

However, although the Babawi Empire did not prohibit transactions between the two Civilizations, if it was a transaction with a Civilization that was not under the Babawi Empire, the process needed the supervision of Officials from the Babawi Empire. 30% of the transaction amount would also be turned over as a transaction tax.

Therefore, most Civilizations usually choose to trade with the Babawi Empire. After all, the Babawi Empire charging them 20% more or less as the transaction tax, would be better than being charged 30% as the transaction tax.

In this Small Trade Hub, a small fleet belonging to the Babawi Empire was stationed, numbering 3,000 ships.

In the entire Trade Network, the Babawi Empire only had large main fleets stationed in large Trade Hubs, while small and medium-sized Trade Hubs only had local fleets that were small in number.

After all, there were 12,000 small Trade Hubs alone. It was impossible for the Babawi Empire to station a large number of troops everywhere.

The place was as lively as usual, and no one noticed that the void had suddenly shrunk. It was only until 100,000 warships suddenly appeared, that the alarm sounded in the fortress of this Trade Hub.

“What happened?”

Barbaria, the commander of the Small Trade Hub No. 11765, walked into the Command Center of the fortress and shouted loudly.

“Reporting to the Commander, a fleet of 100,000 warships suddenly appeared. No matching information could be found in the database!”

“Huh?”

100,000 spaceships were not unusual. After all, the surrounding Level 2 and Level 3 Civilizations would often bring more than 100,000 or even more spaceships in order to deliver the goods.

The puzzling point was that this fleet had no matching data.

“Order the Guard Fleet to intercept it immediately and ask which Civilization they are from!”

“Yes! But Commander, there is one more thing!”

“Then speak!”

“Yes, according to the report from the Star Path, there is no record of this fleet passing through. This subordinate boldly guesses that the other party is likely to have Warp Engines!”

Hearing his subordinate’s report, Barbaria’s eyes suddenly shrank.

“Are you sure they didn’t come through the Star Path?”

“Yes, assuming that the surveillance personnel on the Star Path hadn’t lied about the situation!”

This was a major event, and a sense of crisis instantly creeped into Barbaria’s heart.

What does 100,000 warships with Warp Engines represent? As a Military Officer of the Babawi Empire, how could he not know?

“Call the other party immediately. Find out who they are and order the Guard Fleet to prepare for the attack. Once the other party starts acting fishy, immediately attack them!”

“Yes!”

On the other side, inside Lin Fan’s temporary flagship, Chaos.

“Commander-in-Chief, just like the information said, there are only 3,000 warships stationed here!”

“Well, immediately activate the Warp Blocking Device, and at the same time order the fleet to start attacking. Destroy the opponent as fast as possible!”

“Yes, Commander-in-Chief!”

Following Lin Fan’s order, a strange device was ejected from the Chaos. At the same time, 100,000 Battleships launched their first salvo towards the oncoming Babawi Empire warships.

The Commander of the Garrison Fleet of the Babawi Empire did not expect that the other party would suddenly attack. After all, no one dared to attack the Babawi Empire.

Therefore, they weren’t able to adjust their formation in time, receiving a wave of concentrated fire. Of the 800 warships in the front of the fleet, more than 400 were destroyed.

With the plasma cannons currently equipped on the Federation Killer Whale-Class Battleships, the warships of the Babawi Empire could only withstand 5 or 6 rounds, not to mention the local Guard Fleet.

These warships were ‘discontinued’ versions. They were more than enough to deal with a Level 3 Civilization, but to deal with Level 4 Civilization warships’ that’s on the same level, they were obviously worse.

“Fight back, fight back immediately!”

The Babawi Empire’s Guard Fleet Commander immediately shouted, but they were without any experience in fighting with a Level 4 Civilization. Moreover, the first wave of counterattacks were using the cover fire strategy!

The result could be imagined and none of the Human warships were destroyed. After all, although the hit rate of the range coverage shooting was relatively balanced, it had no effect on the warships of a Level 4 Civilization.

After all, it was impossible to break the Energy Shield with just 1 or 2 shots. In a battle against a Level 4 Civilization, only a focused fire attack could cause effective damage!

At this time, Barbaria, who was watching the battle in the fortress, was also shocked.

The light blue Energy Shield and 100,000 warships with Warp Engines…

Obviously, this was a real Level 4 Civilization’s fleet. Not to mention that there’s the huge number difference. They didn’t have any chance at all!

“Quickly send everything that happened here, as well as all the information about the appearance of the opponent’s warship, weapons, etc., to the Empire!”

“Yes!”

[Note: I have an event to attend to, idk if I’m able to tl for the next release. Just a heads up]
