In the sky filled with dark clouds, there was a deafening roar. 15 space vehicles formed two formations and flew over the minefield from two directions, one south and one north.
The two formations conducted crisscross flights over the minefields, dropping tens of thousands of tons of aerial bombs during the flight.
After the dense rain of bullets, the entire minefield became a burning inferno, and the firelight hundreds of meters high reflected the entire sea area red.
This process started a chain reaction in just 30 seconds, just like dry wood meeting a fierce fire and instantly turning into a sea of fire.
The fire surface covering thousands of square kilometers once rose to a height of 300 meters, like huge walls of fire, surging and burning.
This surprised Li Jianfeng. You must know that the mines ordered by René were autonomous attack mines. They can not only actively search and attack targets, but also autonomously evade when they are cleared.
The method of evasion is to quickly maneuver to the seabed or away from the cleared sea area after receiving the early warning, and use the depth and breadth of the sea to implement effective maneuver evasion.
But all of them were wiped out in just 30 seconds, which is really incredible.
Unless, they are not autonomous attack mines at all, but ordinary trigger-type air-dropped mines.
After a moment of contemplation, an unpredictable smile appeared on Li Jianfeng's face.
He understood Rene's intention.
In the command hall of the Dark River Company in the bunker, Shangui looked at the minefield that had become a sea of fire on the surveillance screen, staring blankly at Rene, who had an indifferent expression.
He sipped the coffee indifferently, as if everything just now had nothing to do with them.
Just as the mountain ghost was about to speak, René understood what he meant and raised his hand to stop him.
After clearing the minefield, the 15 space vehicles were besieged by more than 800 flying combat mechs entrenched above the main fleet.
Previously, these mechas were like spectators, indifferent to the clearance of 15 space vehicles, as if all this had nothing to do with them.
More than 800 flying combat mechas came with ferocious force, and 15 space vehicles quickly fell into a tight siege. They were like a few lambs in a pack of wolves, completely being hunted.
At such a short distance, space vehicles cannot exert their due advantages at all, and they have become a meal for the mecha troops.
In just 3 minutes, with their superior maneuverability and close-range firepower, 15 space vehicles were either pierced through the body at high speed or torn into pieces by the powerful steel arm of the mecha.
The sea was littered with the fallen wreckage of space vehicles, which were swallowed up by the raging waves in the blink of an eye.
Although the battle situation was one-sided, three space vehicles still released nearly 50,000 small suicide drones into the air just before being attacked.
They are like a dense swarm of locusts, leaving no grass growing wherever they pass.
50,000 small suicide drones are divided into 1,000 combat squads, each squadron carries out about 50 sorties. Basically, a combat squad hunts a flying combat mecha.
Faced with such a numerical advantage, the flying combat mechas were divided and surrounded into isolated individuals, unable to cooperate with each other.
Under the wolf-like siege of suicide drones, each combat mech was either destroyed by continuous suicide strikes, or fell into the sea in a fight with them.
The battle that lasted for dozens of minutes ended, and no flying combat mech survived.
The threat from the air was lifted, and the wartime rescue formation and the main fleet chasing behind did not stop. They seemed to have reached a tacit agreement, passed through the gradually extinguishing sea of fire in the minefield, and rushed towards the home port at high speed. ..
Without threats and checks and balances, surrender is out of the question.
This is the tacit understanding between the two fleets at this moment. Their purpose has become clear, which is to return to their home base as quickly as possible.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
port.
At this moment, the main fleet is less than 200 nautical miles away from the home port, and the wartime rescue formation in front is about to enter the contiguous zone.
According to the agreement signed between the people of Earth and the Terrans, although the contiguous zone can be freely navigated, the other party's ships or aircraft must report to the other party before entering the zone or the sky above the zone.
This means that the Tiberians cannot enter the area at will, but they can still attack targets in the area from a distance.
At this juncture, the small interstellar spacecraft of the Tiberians arrived. They were entrenched above the main fleet and launched an offensive posture.
Fortunately, the wartime rescue formation crossed the contiguous zone at the last moment when the Tiberians arrived and successfully entered the territorial waters.
They are safe.
However, the main fleet at the rear is still galloping within the 200-nautical-mile exclusive economic zone, and is only a mere 10 nautical miles away from the contiguous zone.
They were forced to stop under the force of thousands of small Tiber starships.
On the surface, the Tiberians want to destroy this Earth surface ship force that has "intruded into their territorial waters", but in fact they are here for the 12,000 nuclear bombs that threaten them.
Sinking all the ships in one fell swoop would eliminate the threat once and for all, and then they could destroy all the earth's land-based nuclear bomb launch systems without any scruples.
Just before the Tiberians launched their attack, all the ships on the sea hoisted white flags again.
At the same time, René also urgently contacted the supreme commander of the Tiberians, hoping to allow Dark River Company to surrender this surface force. The reason René gave was the same as before, and it was also very sufficient.
However, no matter how good the reasons are, they cannot overshadow the strong desire and determination of the Tiberians to destroy all nuclear bombs on Earth. Once this happens, they will have no scruples.
The "strategic mutual trust" agreement signed by both parties is like a piece of waste paper.
But Rene's words made the Tiberians, who had been thinking twice, finally give up the idea of destroying it.
The reason given by René is that it is impossible for the Tiberians to destroy all the nuclear bombs in one battle. As long as hundreds of nuclear bombs survive, the people on earth may fight to the death!
Hundreds of nuclear bombs will not cause much damage to the Tiberians, but will cause unpredictable pollution of the earth's water and air.
This is what the Tiberians are extremely unwilling to see.
After some consideration, the supreme commander accepted Rene's suggestion and allowed Dark River Company to surrender the maritime force.
In order to prevent another accident in the surrender, a small Tiber star warship urgently carried a group of Dark River Company maritime military personnel to the surrender area.
On the roaring sea, small interstellar battleships hovered over the fleet. As the hatches slowly opened, more than 90 small shuttle spacecraft landed on 23 aircraft carriers one after another.
More than 2,000 military personnel from the Dark River Company gradually emerged from the small shuttle spacecraft. They will take over all water and underwater ships.
The one-hour takeover was completed, and 23 aircraft carrier formations and 10 strategic nuclear submarine formations changed hands.
The surrender also ends.
All personnel on the original ship were disarmed and they were imprisoned together.
Five minutes later, the fleet set sail, heading in the direction of Dark River Company...
Surprisingly, 10 strategic nuclear submarine formations shut down all communication bands three minutes after entering the water, and they disappeared into the vast ocean.
When the military personnel of Dark River Company reacted, they discovered that they were running in the opposite direction from the main fleet and were speeding towards their home port in Oceania...
The military personnel of Dark River Company immediately mobilized all destroyers to intercept.
An accident occurred again. The destroyer group heading to intercept unexpectedly crossed the contiguous zone and directly entered the territorial waters under the jurisdiction of the Crisis Planning Agency.
Moreover, all destroyers
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
They are all controlled by armed personnel of the Dark River Company. The military personnel on the original ship are still collectively detained in different cabins, and they have not seized command of the ship.
What is even more incredible is that after entering the territorial waters, all the destroyers flew white flags without exception.
Also raising the white flag were the 10 strategic nuclear submarine formations that had disappeared for 10 minutes. At this moment, they had floated to the surface.
They surrendered en masse to the Crisis Plan.
The Crisis Plan quickly surrendered the surrendering force.
This series of operations shocked the Tiberians, but the raw rice had already been cooked. The furious Tiberians had no choice but to reprimand them sternly.
René put on the face of a victim and quickly dispatched a flying combat mech unit to try to attack the surrendering fleet. However, before reaching the planned attack site, he was attacked by the space vehicle in high altitude orbit of the earth. Formation attack.
The mecha troops were wiped out.
An hour later, in a small room, a military personnel from Dark River Company sat opposite Li Jianfeng. He was the person in charge of the surrendering force—Lieutenant Colonel Cleaver, the commander-in-chief of the submarine formation.
He looked calm and stared at Li Jianfeng opposite him.
"You are welcome to abandon darkness and turn to light." Li Jianfeng said.
"I'm not turning from darkness to light, I'm just obeying orders." Clifford replied calmly.
"Obey orders? Whose orders are you obeying?"
"Mr. René."
Li Jianfeng straightened up, with a faint smile on his face.
Li Jianfeng understood that Rene, who was far away in Anhe Company, also knew it well.
Previously, the rescue formation during war was not a mutiny and escape, but a strategy to save the entire fleet. Only by chasing each other could we conceal the eyes and ears of the Taibo people and achieve the goal of escape.
Of course, this order was secretly given by Li Jianfeng to Major General Chen Yuanke.
Dark River Company, which is caught between the Crisis Plan and the Taibo Stars, needs strategic checks and balances from both sides. Dark River Company is not willing to see either party lose its trump card.
The two fleets chasing each other are equipped with 12,000 nuclear bombs. This is the support point for strategic checks and balances between the Earthlings and the Tiberians. Li Jianfeng is unwilling to lose it, and René is even less willing to let the Tiberians destroy or capture it.
Now, the 12,000 nuclear bombs equipped by the surrendered destroyers and nuclear submarine formations have been returned to Zhao, which is exactly the result Rene wanted.
He did this not on a whim, nor because he wanted to play both sides of the situation, but out of necessity.
Once the Crisis Plan loses those 12,000 nuclear bombs, the balance of checks and balances against the Tiberians will tilt, and Dark River Company will become useless. The three-legged situation will no longer exist, and Dark River Company will also lose the meaning of existence.
In fact, Li Jianfeng had already discovered the clues when he ordered the spacecraft to clear the minefield.
If Leme wanted to destroy those 25 aircraft carrier formations and 12 nuclear submarine formations, he would never lay ordinary trigger-type air-dropped mines.
Of course, the last thing he wants to destroy are destroyers and nuclear submarines equipped with nuclear bombs.
What he told the Tiberians was that the deployment of autonomous attack mines was nothing more than a cover-up. The purpose was to buy more time for the wartime rescue formation and the main fleet behind them, so that they could get as close as possible to the people on Earth. the contiguous area under its jurisdiction.
"Mr. René told me that as long as I lead all the destroyers and nuclear submarine formations to surrender to you, the Chief of General Staff will definitely guarantee the personal safety of me and my men." Cleaver asked Li Jianfeng.
"Of course!" Li Jianfeng replied cheerfully.
After pausing for a moment, he continued: "However, you cannot return to Dark River Company, and we will not prosecute you for war crimes. You will obtain new citizenship and live here."
