"It's a target ship again!" Phil squeezed out this sentence through his teeth.
Lightyear still showed unrivaled tactical prowess. After a dazzling movement, he successfully locked onto a destroyer hiding behind. The fierce firepower instantly severely damaged the destroyer. As for the Moon Fleet, half of the fleet was focusing on the two Champion Knights, resulting in serious firepower dispersion.
However, the overall firepower of the Moon Fleet was much higher than that of Light Years. Even half the fleet's combat power was much higher than that of Light Years. Therefore, after a round of confrontation, one of Light Year's destroyers was also seriously injured.
The two sides attacked without stopping. The two light-year champion knights saw their bottom line and simply turned sideways, using their hulls to block the opponent's light cannon bombardment. This time, the Moon Fleet did not act stupid again, and tried its best to avoid the champion knight with its attacks.
The new round of fighting took a lot of losses. The destroyer that was originally severely damaged was directly destroyed. Another destroyer was seriously injured. In addition, many destroyers were injured.
Phil exclaimed, quite surprised by the result. In his expectation, he was supposed to destroy more than three of his opponent's starships, but in the end, he only destroyed one that was seriously injured, and the other targets were only damaged. As early as the first battle, Phil knew that the Lightyear Starship was extremely durable and had extremely fierce firepower. So he adjusted the focus fire rules based on the data from the first battle, but now he discovered that the Lightyear Starship had become more durable.
Originally, the Lightyear Starship's firepower was about the same as that of a light cruiser, but now even its defenses are catching up with the light cruisers. Therefore, if fighting on the spot, Phil would be equivalent to fighting 10 light cruisers. If the Lightyear Starship was really only a destroyer, half of it would have been destroyed long ago.
After both sides lost two destroyers each, the Lightyear fleet suddenly dispersed and fled in all directions, hiding behind the planet.
"Here we go again." Phil sneered, and immediately sent two squadrons to pursue a light-year destroyer each. Each squadron consists of one heavy cruiser, one light cruiser and two destroyers. Phil doesn't believe that light years can eat them all in one go.
Moon Wheel's main fleet began to approach the planet's high orbit, and Phil had already set his sights on a base floating on the surface of the storm clouds. He now has enough troops and is ready to take down the base in one fell swoop, regardless of whether it is real or fake. After clearing the target in orbit, the landing fleet can begin its work.
After a round of attacks, large and small deep pits suddenly appeared on the surface of the base, but the armor layer had not been penetrated yet. This base also seems to be equipped with extremely thick armor.
Phil was not in a hurry and ordered each ship to adjust the main gun power to the most economical state and bombard slowly. Anyway, he has plenty of time, and he can slowly peel off the turtle shell no matter how thick it is.
Energy weapons such as beam cannons are seriously interfered by storm clouds. Even if the heavy cruiser bombards them, the power will only be less than 20%, leaving a hole several meters in diameter and about one meter deep on the outer shell of the base. Shallow pit. The system in front of Phil showed that in one hour and three minutes, the base armor would be blasted through.
At this time, the reconnaissance ship flying around Xingde sent a report that a total of 7 similar targets were found in low orbit.
Phil looked at the time and smiled casually. Seven bases may seem like a lot, but even if each one takes an hour, plus the time spent traveling, the total will not take more than 12 hours. Chu Jungui's tactics were a joke in the face of Yue Lun's powerful firepower.
However, after the first round of attacks, the orbital base suddenly sank, almost touching the surface of the storm clouds before it stopped!
Phil's smile suddenly froze.
He watched the heavy cruiser launch a new round of attacks. However, the high-energy beam caused a reaction in the storm clouds. An ion lightning almost split most of the light beam. In the end, only a hole with a diameter of less than 2 meters was left on the surface of the base. By visual inspection, it was only 20 meters. Centimeter sinking shallow pit. The power of this shot is not even 5% of its original power!
"Continue to attack!" Phil ordered. He didn't believe that this base couldn't be sunk. Anyway, there was plenty of time now.
Ten hours later, the main fleet of Yuelun finally left its original position, and Phil's face in the command cabin had already turned livid.
The huge fleet headed towards the second target, and at this time, the progress bar in front of Chu Jungui increased from 3% to 96%.
The shape of the second base is a bit strange. It is not square like the first base, but has a long vertical tail extending from the bottom, almost inserted into the storm clouds. From time to time, a few bolts of lightning would jump out of the storm clouds and hit the vertical tail.
"That looks like a real target..." Phil mused.
The Moon Fleet had just set up its attack formation and carefully descended into orbit. This process is very dangerous. All the equipment of the starship are obviously affected by the storm clouds. If one accidentally loses control and rushes into the storm clouds, everyone knows what will happen.
It took an hour just to set up the formation and lower the orbit, but Phil seemed very patient. He was ready to fight a war of attrition with Chu Jungui.
However, when the fleet was about to enter the attack position, an alarm suddenly sounded. The Lightyear fleet regrouped at some unknown time, circled out from the back of the planet, and charged straight at it!
Phil frowned and first glanced at the two hunting squadrons. Now each squadron is holding a destroyer and is about to fly outside the galaxy. The two lightyear starships didn't fight at all, they just ran away with all their strength. Their sublight speed performance was unexpectedly powerful. The two squadrons of Yuelun chased for more than half of the galaxy but failed to catch up. The ships Phil sent out were all hunter-type starships known for their speed, but they failed to catch up to two ordinary destroyers of light years.
The squadron cannot be called back for a while, but even the remaining fleet can easily crush Chu Jungui's fleet. At this time, the scanning results had come out, and the image of the Lightyear Fleet and detailed data appeared on the star map.
This time Lightyear still has 12 starships, but the three in the middle are all champion knights!
Phil's eyelids twitched and he sneered: "How many times do you want to do the same trick? It seems that Chu Jungui is no more than that!"
Although he said that, Phil was actually not careless at all. He carefully checked the fire targets of all starships and tried his best to avoid the three Champion Knights. But when he removed the Champion Knight from the focus list, he subconsciously gritted his teeth and was very reluctant.
The fleets of both sides approached quickly and opened fire on each other until they were at a dangerous distance. The battlefield is in the low orbit of Planet 4. The power of the beam cannon is greatly reduced, and the range is two-thirds shorter than normal. Guang Nian is a native of Planet No. 4, so he naturally knows these data. After Phil destroyed a solid base, he also had enough data to adjust the main gun.
The only disadvantage to the Moon Wheel is that the storm clouds have a great impact on the shield, and the effective shield value of all starships is only 20% of its original value.
