If Lu Yuan, Li Huamei, Anni or even Mu Xing could browse the list of Star Alliance personnel participating in this exhibition, they would find many familiar names.
Lu Yuan's former teacher, Hasegawa Ei, the principal of the Naval High School, took some teachers and was stationed on a certain cruiser - as an education expert who has trained countless naval soldiers, he wanted to know up close what he meant to students The cultivation of tactics and quality is a success or a failure. And modern warfare, what new changes will appear on the battlefield.
Anne's former comrades, Captain Cynthia, became the temporary commander of a cruiser, and Captain Leona was the adjutant of the fleet commander, Lieutenant General Young. Lin Zhuxue has been officially promoted to captain and is currently fighting among the pirates with the "Guandu" frigate.
The Elysium garrison that had shown great success in the Skirian Raid, and those soldiers who once fought side by side with Li Huamei, now more than half of them are galloping and fighting on this battlefield.
And Jane Shepard's team and her teacher David Anderson...
It can be said that this is a temporary fleet composed of thirty old cruisers and young elites drawn from the entire army! Because since the "First Contact War" 20 years ago, there has never been a major war in the Star Alliance. In this peaceful era, the actual combat experience of fleet warfare is more valuable than imagined!
The generals who participated in the "First Contact War" have become the backbone of the Star Alliance Navy twenty years later! Therefore, the Navy really showed great courage this time and wanted to take this opportunity to lay the foundation of the Navy for the next thirty years!
However, of course things will not go as smoothly as imagined. Just like the top brass of the Navy also quietly set a "30%" casualty target for Lieutenant General Young - war will eventually kill people.
The pirate's Batarian Dreadnought-class battleship stopped far beyond the range of the Star Alliance cruiser's main gun. Because that's already within the range of its main gun. The original most powerful point of the Dreadnought was its powerful main gun and ultra-long-range rear attack.
Even though they are tens of thousands of kilometers apart, the detectors in the fleet. You can still clearly see on the screen the faint light that begins to light up on the belly of the dreadnought - although it cannot be seen very clearly, professionals with many years of training can easily identify that it is the mk01. The electric arc leaked when the main gun was charging, and the enemy dreadnought was about to fire!
"Prepare for impact!". "Prepare for impact!", the scout's warning sounded from the bridge of every cruiser. Belittling the Battery warship is just to boost morale. Everyone knows that the dreadnought is the biggest enemy! But everyone just fastened their seat belts silently. At present, the main task of the cruiser is still to focus on solving the pirate cruiser group and open a way forward for the frigate to attack!
Now is not the time to deal with the dreadnought.
The diamond-shaped brilliance of the battleship cluster flashed once again. The two pirate cruisers located in the center and edge of the battlefield were exploded again! At this point, the front of the entire cruiser group has become a battleship cemetery, with more than twenty broken cruiser hulls. Floating and burning here, there are escape pods everywhere flashing distress signals...
"The impact is accurate...", a bright line of fire. Spanning tens of thousands of kilometers, it connects the distant dreadnoughts and rhombus fleets! The steel projectiles flew out of the muzzle with a roar. Five seconds later, the steel projectiles flew tens of thousands of kilometers and slammed into the forefront of the fleet! The "Roma" driven by Captain Cynthia was the first to be hit!
The projectile, which traveled tens of thousands of kilometers and had a deviation of less than 4 nanodegrees, hit hard on the side of the cruiser "Roma"! The kinetic energy released by the projectile caused a huge explosion! In the raging flames and blazing currents, the combined kinetic energy barrier lasted for about a few microseconds before breaking down. But before being broken through, the thick kinetic energy barrier still persisted in deflecting the projectile by more than a dozen nanodegrees!
The projectile finally deceived the central axis of the battleship and tore a huge crack in the upper side of the cruiser! Afterwards, the projectile, which had lost most of its kinetic energy, jumped several times on the recharged fleet joint shield and flew into the dark universe behind the fleet. Only the brilliant blue flowers remain like ripples on the water.
"It's DF4! Cynthia's battleship!" Captain Leona shouted nervously, and then she quickly opened the call channel, "Cynthia! I'm Leona... Do you hear me? I'm Leona! Rome No! Please reply if you hear it!".
Out of sight of her, Lieutenant General Yang suddenly clenched his fists! But he did not put down his work and pay attention to the injuries of Captain Cynthia's battleship. After pausing for about a second, he reopened the communication array and said simply "a+1!". There was silence in the channel, only Lieutenant General Yang's voice echoed, and then General Yang directly closed the array.
The cruiser group turned silently, like gears clicking together, and another intact battleship was pushed to the position of formation df4. The projectile that was directly hit cut off half of the ship's bow, and the still-burning cruiser "Rome" was quietly moved to the back of the fleet under the action of the fleet's synergy effect field. Several small rescue shuttles are flying over there...
"Roma! Captain Cynthia! Please answer if you hear me!" Captain Leona called over and over again, but there was only a rustling sound in the communication channel.
Lieutenant General Yang lowered his head as if he didn't hear anything, and focused on the rapidly decreasing red dots in the center of the battlefield... The opponent's fighting quality was too poor, and the distance between the dogfight of the frigate group to determine the winner was about four. Fifteen seconds...
Forty-five seconds, that is to say, the Batarian dreadnought can still fire fifteen times... Vice Admiral Yang shifted his attention to the opponent's cruiser array. It had become sparse and sparse, like a dog-gnawed fence that had lost its usefulness. Can't wait any longer! Maybe...
His eyes drifted slightly toward Captain Leona, but the "Roma" still didn't answer.
"Commander! Enemy attack! Warning! A large number of enemy planes are approaching!" Suddenly, a large number of warning sounds flooded into the wartime channel! Lieutenant General Yang directly updated the tactical map, and new situations have been added to the map board——
Although the beginning of the battle was indeed a frantic attack by the pirates. But as one cruiser after another was destroyed, and the scattered frigates were slaughtered by the Star Alliance, the pirates were completely stunned by this combination of punches! After that, although the scene turned into a stalemate between the two sides, with a dogfight in the middle, the Batarian dreadnought hid in the distance and fired cold arrows.
But in fact, the entire rhombus fleet is constantly pressing forward, and the pirates, including the dreadnoughts, are retreating back to the asteroid belt step by step. Especially the dreadnought, its biggest advantage now is that its range is longer than that of the cruiser - once it is included in the range of more than thirty cruisers, what awaits it will definitely be the concentrated fire of the entire fleet! The only ending left is to be destroyed.
(The calculation of the mass effect gun's range is closely related to computer radar, shooting accuracy, projectile flight time, etc., and is a complex system. It is not a concept that the projectile loses its lethality after it exceeds the range. There is no resistance in space, and the projectile can Keep flying... only a few tens of thousands of kilometers away, the target of the dreadnought is not much bigger than a speck of dust, and it is constantly maneuvering tactically.
When the rhombus fleet just approached the asteroid belt, the pirates, who had suffered heavy losses and could no longer wait, launched their final ambush brazenly! Thousands of small fighters and aircraft, which had always been hiding on one side and watching their own warships being slaughtered, suddenly rushed out from the asteroid belt on one side, charging straight like a huge swarm of bees. To the cruiser group!
"Start the gardian system! Switch to manual operation! Each warship pays attention to distinguish the main target!" The keen Lieutenant General Yang immediately discovered the pirate's trick - in the seemingly densely packed group of fighter planes, in fact, there were many Some are shuttles and small cargo ships! Some of the ships attacked didn't even have weapons on board! The only real threat to the battleship is the fighter planes hidden inside, and it must be a fighter plane carrying a disintegrating torpedo...
From the very beginning, the two sides shortened the distance to close combat. When the overwhelming swarm of fighter planes rushed straight to the side of the fleet and were about to swallow the huge diamond in one gulp - the fleet, solidified together like a block of steel, suddenly stretched out countless orange-red hair - and what followed was The overwhelming explosion flames!
In an instant, countless fighter planes blasted by laser cannons exploded into a "wall" of debris in space! Floating on the periphery of the rhombus fleet. However, while the fighter plane was destroyed, countless shuttles still crashed through the wreckage and rushed into the defensive circle. But they could do nothing but turn around and run away in panic - because these shuttles had no weapons in the first place, most of them were just here to make up numbers and serve as false targets for cover.
However, following Lieutenant General Yang's order, the cruiser's gardian system was all switched to manual mode from the beginning. Rows of young people drawn from various fleets were sitting behind the gardian system, quickly selecting shooting targets that were more threatening. They didn't even look at the cargo ships that were charging.
But the attacks of the pirate fighter planes were not ineffective. As batch after batch of fighters and shuttles were destroyed, the continuous firing of the gardian system inevitably entered an overheating state. All frigates were sent to the main battlefield ahead. The cruisers could only fight by reducing the firing frequency of the defensive laser cannons and changing the fleet formation.
What's more, after discovering the Star Alliance's shooting strategy, the cunning pirates simply let unarmed shuttles carry the disintegrating torpedoes! Or install a large number of laser weapons on small cargo ships! It was hard to guard against... As the battle became more and more intense, the outer warships began to suffer battle damage - the ablative armor was destroyed! The fort was destroyed! Some battleship engines were even hit and had to withdraw from the array, becoming victims of piranhas...
The blank firepower of the battleship group is getting weaker and weaker, and the pirates who see the hope of victory are getting more and more crazy! The Starfleet fleet is in danger and may be destroyed at any time... (To be continued.
