"What!"
Half an hour later, looking at the clear scan of information, Zhu Fu was so shocked that he almost jumped up from his throne, and his eyes were even more glaring as if he was about to fly out of his sockets.
He originally thought he should stay honestly in the rear of the Kosaro Center fleet, but he rushed all the way along the Pioneer Fleet with the fastest speed that exceeded his own limit!
More than twenty main battleships, led by the huge Emperor-class battleship, seemed to be heavy cavalry holding spears and armored with a destruction momentum, rushed towards the bandits holding battle axe machetes with a destructive aura. Their original speed should be very slow, but the Minotaur-class tugboats ahead of them changed all this. The strongest gravitational tugboats in service in the empire are equivalent to adding an additional 2-3 engines to each ship, which suddenly increased their linear speed!
Before, they had been hiding near the main battleship and could not be discovered by scanning the array.
At this time, what Zhu Fu thought of immediately retreated. However, when the order was issued, the empire's vanguard fleet had already stuck to his main fleet from the flank, and the two wings sent out were still staggering to attack the "Imperial Core Fleet" that was no longer in the rear. This turned the situation into the situation where the main fleet led by Kosaro, the vanguard fleet and the main fleet led by Zhu Fu were fighting one-on-one.
However, the power in Zhu Fu's hands was not enough to support his victory. He only had 2 combat barges, 2 large cruisers, 11 light and heavy cruisers of different models, and 45 small battleships.
It seems that the number is OK, but those small warships are barely enough to make up the number, and they really need to fight...
He realized that although he was extremely cautious, he was still fooled. He always thought that the vanguard fleet sent by the Empire was just to interfere with the shooting of the main battleship. After all, this was a common tactic. Unexpectedly, its real purpose was to cover the attack of the central fleet.
So Zhu Fu ordered the formation to be opened and firepower was concentrated to attack the enemy's main battleship.
Running at this time means being massacred, and he is still clear about this, so the best solution is to hold back. He still has hope of victory. The main reason is that those encircled fleets crossed from behind to cover the gap between the two wings of the Empire and attacked Cosaro's central fleet from behind. The victory or defeat is unknown.
Moreover, after leaving the tugboat, the speed of those battleships will quickly fade, and they will definitely choose to bombard the shell at the appropriate distance, and they will eventually return to the original situation.
Just as Zhu Fu tried to adjust his formation to deal with the upcoming shelling, something even more unexpected happened.
The main battleships did not launch artillery at "appropriate distance". After the forward fleet restrained the Zhu Fu fleet and reduced its speed, they actually crashed into Zhu Fu's original formation without even turning. Although the tow boats had already lifted the gravitational pull, inertia still existed.
A murder-class cruiser that had no time to move was lying across the irresistible charge route of the Courage Hymn. Although the plasma macro cannon on one side was constantly firing, it could not destroy the void shield of the giant ship. Occasionally, some shells passed through and only made some scars on the heavy alloy bow.
The hymn of Courage is different from other emperor-level ones. It once experienced a bloody battle that caused serious damage to the bow. Therefore, the Navy changed its traditional sensor probe to the ridge and installed a thickened armored bow on it.
The distance between the two sides disappeared in an instant. Everyone on the ship, including the Chaos Space Marines, could only watch the huge Sky Eagle Emblem crashing into themselves in a terrified silence. This seemed to be a slow motion. The void shields of both sides dissolved. When the bow of the Emperor-class battleship collided with the shell of the Murder-class cruiser, the surface of the armor immediately bent and finally completely crushed, until the Emperor-class bow was almost completely buried inside. The subsequent series of explosions ignited this strange scene from the inside. The murder level was divided into two, and the wreckage flipped and disintegrated in the void, and threw all the crew into the void.
All this seems slow, but it is actually just a blink of an eye.
The hymn of courage continued to move forward, its bow was only slightly deformed, and at the same time, the macro cannons on both sides began to roar together.
A storm of destruction broke out in Zhu Fu's fleet, and then six revenge classes joined in. They all added temporary armored bows before the war. Just like following the entourage of the knights, they plowed a path of destruction from the left and right of the emperor level. Some small boats could not dodge and were directly crushed. Their macro cannons kept roaring. At such a close distance, even the void shield at the cruiser level could not match its edge.
A Hellman-class light cruiser was soon overloaded with shields, and was then covered with dense cannons, which instantly split from the bridge to the artillery deck, and then exploded into several segments.
At the same time, the communication channels between the two sides became active.
"Zhufu, or Balzac, we will free you from eternal pain, and that corrupt body has lived long enough."
Hearing the voices of his former brothers echoed on the bridge, Zhu Fu only replied with the other party's contemptuous laughter and clenched his battle axe.
"Then I'll wait for you, good brothers."
"Commander-in-Chief, the Moon of Destruction sent a message that the enemy has sent a second landing force. The commander of Azriel is implementing the scheduled plan, but he believes that the enemy's space waste ship may be stronger than the estimated, and the planned startup time may need to be adjusted."
On the bridge of the Eternal Loyalty, a massive amount of information is summarized here. Soshiyang stood in front of the imager and observed the macro battlefield diagram.
After listening to Ustad's report, Soshyang nodded intently and said:
"Reply to the commander of Azriel, everything is up to him to decide."
"yes."
Then Laishande came over again.
"A message just came from Kosaro Khan. They had already fought with Zhu Fu and their prey had fallen into a trap."
"Well, reply to Kosaro Khan, don't underestimate the enemy. Half of the prey fell into it does not mean that there is no chance to break free and resist. Well, send two frigate squadrons and a destroyer squadron to support it, do your best to protect this group of enemies, and we will do our best to achieve our best in one battle."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! After that, Soshiyang put his hand on the railing of the imager and stared at the direction of the Kara Galaxy.
"At this time, Huron should also appear."
"Commander-in-Chief! A strong signal comes from the subspace probe!"
Ditrian, who was personally responsible for detecting the array, suddenly made a monotonous but highly tone sound, and then a huge red dot appeared on the camera.
"An enemy fleet is leaving subspace and approaching the Kara Galaxy!"
Soshiyang glared slightly, straightened his waist, and smiled at Talos beside him:
"He's here."
Then he said to Ditrian:
"To the commander of Tu'Shan's battle, Huron's main force has arrived, please be sure to keep him out."
About twenty minutes after the signal was sent out, the fleet commanded by Tu Shan arrived at the edge of the Kara Galaxy. They were facing the main force led by Huron himself and the most elite force of the Red Pirates. There were more than 26 heavy/large cruisers alone, and several battleships, but what really surprised Tu Shan was not the influx of the battleship, but another thing.
The second space scrap ship besides the Savage Crucible!
Even in terms of size, it is a little larger than the Savage Crucible, and also has the ability to walk independently and various weapons and facilities, almost like the waste ship that appears near the Moon of Destruction.
In this case, Tushan did not retreat, taking advantage of the fact that the fleet was far more numerous than gunboats - especially the natural disaster-class battleships, to attack the enemy's abandoned ships at a long distance, and to line up the entire fleet into a single column, intending to attack while maneuvering, so as not to give the opponent the opportunity to fight in close range as much as possible.
