The Strongest Interstellar Commander

Chapter 207: Otto Empire.

Year 85 of the Federal Calendar.

1,400 light years from Earth, the Otto Empire.

The Otto Empire was one of the two subordinate forces of the Babawi Empire, on the secondary arm of the Orion’s Arm Branch. The other was, of course, the Orr Republic on the edge of the Shanhai Pass.

Being able to become the 11th subordinate force of the Babawi Empire proved that they had a good amount of strength. Among the many Level 3 Civilization’s in the Orion’s Arm Branch, the Otto Empire, like the Orion Republic, could be ranked in the top ten.

However, at this moment, the Emperor of the Otto Empire, Murat, no longer had the prestige of the past. Instead, there was a look of horror on his face.

Today was the celebration of the 10,000th anniversary of the founding of the Otto Empire. For this reason, more than 20 years ago, the Empire even called back a large number of its elite troops from all over to prepare for the largest military parade ever held in the Capital Circle.

At this moment, 70% of the Empire’s main warships were gathered here. The number had reached a full 8 million, including 600,000 Babawi Empire bought warships!

However, just in the middle of the military parade held in the Capital Circle of the Otto Empire, an uninvited guest made their presence known.

It was a huge fleet that was not much smaller than theirs. Visually, this fleet was more powerful than the 8 million warships in the military parade.

After all, other than the 600,000 Babawi Empire bought warships, the Otto Empire was composed of multiple types of ships. Most of which were small and medium-sized ships, such as Frigates, Destroyers and Cruisers.

On the other hand, the uninvited fleet were all Battleships! How could this not make Murat surprised? In his impression, such a fleet composed of Battleships could only be from the Babawi Empire.

In addition, the appearance of this huge fleet also had Warp Engines, looking exactly the same as the Warp Engine of the Babawi Empire, which gave Murat a very bad premonition.

As if to confirm Murat’s hunch, this fleet began to pour its ferocious firepower on the various ships in the parade.

Speaking of which, the military discipline of the Otto Empire’s fleet was quite good.

Although they were suddenly attacked, they did not panic. Instead, they quickly changed their formation and formed a counter-attack.

But after a wave of attacks, everyone was stunned. All of the warships on the opposite side had Energy Shields. Even after a wave of cover fire shots, they didn’t cause any damage.

“Quick, immediately change to focus fire attack. Every 30 warships form a firepower group and focus fire on one opponent’s warship!”

As the Commander-in-Chief of the Otto Empire Star Fleet, Matvey responded very quickly. He immediately adjusted his attack strategy, and issued orders to the legions!

Standing beside him was Emperor Murat, who was watching the ceremony with him, when this sudden change of situation had occurred.

“Matvey, do you know the identity of the other party?”

“Your Majesty, the database is currently undergoing a data comparison. I believe there will be results soon!”

Matvey’s face was quite ugly. After all, as a commander of a Level 3 Civilization, how could he be pleased facing nearly 7 million Level 4 Civilization warships?

“Reporting, the data comparison has been completed. More than 80% of the warships are Battleships belonging to the Io Federation. However, according to the database, the Io Federation should be a civilization that has just been promoted to the middle stage of Level 3. As for the remaining hundreds of thousands of warships, there are no search results in the database and it may be a new type of warship.”

Matvey’s Adjutant came to Murat and Matvey to report.

This time Murat and Matvey were stunned.

You’re telling me that this was a middle stage Level 3 Civilization?

Do you think I’m blind?

As the two were in a daze, the situation on the battlefield became more and more unfavorable for the Otto Empire.

On average, the Otto Empire would lose tens of thousands of warships for each wave of bombardment, while the opponent’s loss was only a few dozen warships.

Soon, Matvey realized that the reason for such a large difference in battle damage was the distance.

At present, the distance between the two sides was about 3 million kilometers. At this distance, the fleet led by Liang Xingchen could use long range cover fire shots, with the hit rate within an acceptable range.

But Matvey was different. In order to target the enemy Energy Shields, he had to divide his forces into a group of 30, in focus fire groups in order to attack just one of them.

Using this type of strategy, at this distance, would result in a very low hit rate.

“Order all of the legions to shorten the distance!”

“Yes!”

“Your Majesty, you should contact the Babawi Empire!”

After giving the order, Matvey turned to Murat and advised.

“Right, how could I forget this!”

As Murat spoke, he took out a communication device from his person and pressed it.

Soon, the call was connected, and the figure of Babarea appeared on the bridge.

“Your Majesty Babarea!”

Murat bowed his head respectfully.

“Murat, why did you contact me through the emergency coms?”

“Your Majesty Babarea, the Otto Empire is under a massive attack, and we can’t hold on anymore!”

After listening to Murat’s words, Babarea was shocked. The Otto Empire was a tyrant in the secondary arm. Why…

“Murat, which Civilization attacked you?”

“Your Majesty Babarea, the Civilization is called the Io Federation. Our database shows that the other party is a Level 3 Civilization and they are currently in our Capital Circle!”

“Wait, I know the Io Federation, but they don’t have the ability to attack your Capital Circle. The Io Federation should be nearly 2,000 light-years away from you!”

Babarea was confused. He had some recollection of the Io Federation buried deep in his mind. After all, Babaweiler reported it a few years ago.

“But this Io Federation was just a middle stage Level 3 Civilization. The most important thing is that they are nearly 2,000 light-years away from the Otto Empire.”

“That should take nearly a thousand years of travel through the Star Path!”

“Lord Babarea, the opponent’s nearly 7 million warships all have Energy Shields, and their firepower is also quite fierce. They’re nothing like a Level 3 Civilization at all!”

As Murat spoke, someone took an image and projected it in front of Babarea.

In the image, there were two huge fleets fighting against each other. The difference was that one had Energy Shields and didn’t incur much damage. Meanwhile, the other had no Energy Shields and had already lost significant amounts of warships.

If this situation continues, within two hours, the side without Energy Shields would be completely wiped out.

Seeing the image, Babarea was even more shocked.

“This is the Io Federation?”
