The winner of the second holy war duel is the Legion of Holy Angels.
After Zhao Chen announced his defeat, the interstellar battleships from both sides ended the battle as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, the remaining dozens of interstellar battleships of the Holy Angel Fleet withdrew from the battlefield at an extremely fast speed, as if they were escaping from some scourge.
On the contrary, the remaining interstellar battleships on the Xiaolong Fleet seemed to be very unwilling to do so, hovering in place.
At this time, the video window opened in front of Zhao Chen, and the unwillingness in Shen Bing's eyes could be felt even through the electronic screen.
"Shen Bing, immediately arrange to treat the injured, rescue the destroyed and damaged star battleships, and rescue as many crew members as possible who still have hope of survival." Zhao Chen spoke first.
"Commander... why... we... we can continue to fight!" Shen Bing clenched his fists, with a hint of unwillingness in his eyes, and bit his red lips.
Zhao Chen looked at Shen Bing and smiled: "Shen Bing, you have done a great job in this battle.
Although we admit defeat on the surface, everyone knows that the real winner is you!"
"Then why..." Shen Bing lost control of her emotions.
Zhao Chen's expression changed and he said seriously: "I have no doubt that you can win for us, but let me ask you.
If we continue fighting like this, out of a hundred star battleships, how many star battleships can you ensure to survive?
How many star battleships and crews will be sacrificed!"
Shen Bing was speechless.
She was confident that she could win a victory, but... by then it was estimated that there would be no more than twenty star battleships surviving.
"This holy war is important to us, but it is not a real battlefield.
If I had a choice, I couldn't just watch you die here!
I have seen the efforts you have put in. You are the Xiaolong Fleet that I am proud of, and that is enough!
You have done a good job." Zhao Chen said seriously.
Shen Bing choked and her eyes were slightly red.
"Okay, do as I say, I have dispatched an interstellar medical ship and an interstellar industrial ship to assist you.
Reduce our personnel losses as much as possible!" Zhao Chen reminded again.
"Yes." Shen Bing nodded heavily.
Communication ends.
At this time, Lilith said next to her: "In this second battle, nearly half of our interstellar battleships have lost their combat capabilities.
Thirteen of them were directly destroyed. Except for the crew members who escaped in time, the possibility of remaining survivors is very small.
The other twenty-five ships were severely damaged, but the structure of the starships was generally intact, and there was a possibility of survivors inside.
The rest is because the main performance of the starship has been damaged and it has lost its combat capability. The crew members on the ship have a high probability of survival after our rescue.
It is estimated that we will eventually lose thirty-seven star battleships in this battle, including some star battleships that are not worth repairing; the remaining star battleships that are worth repairing will be brought back to the nearest star port for repair after the Holy War duel.
In terms of casualties, the number of casualties is expected to be around 2,300; there will be more minor and serious injuries, and this number is expected to reach 2,000.
But with the T3 Andromeda-class interstellar medical ship we brought for treatment, there won’t be much of a problem.”
After listening to Lilith's report, Zhao Chen nodded.
This loss was within the acceptable range for him. If he had not ended the battle in time, even if he won in the end, the number of casualties would have been more than ten times greater.
At present, the outcome of the two holy war duels has been decided, with the Xiaolong Legion and the Holy Angel Legion each gaining a victory.
The final winner will depend on the third battle of the Holy War.
Each side had three thousand star battleships. After more than half an hour of gradual approach, the star battleship groups from both sides arrived at a wide combat area.
It can be seen that the two sides have not prepared too many strategies and are preparing for a head-on battle between legions and fleets!
At this time, Zhao Chen pressed the communication button with Santa Cana next door.
"Miss Santa Cana, let me give you one last piece of advice. This is your last chance to admit defeat.
Don’t add any more casualties.”
Zhao Chen's words rang in Sheng Cana's ears.
The sergeants around Santa Cana also heard this, and they were all very angry, thinking that this guy was provoking now.
However, Sheng Cana's inner thoughts were different at this moment. She sensed that something was wrong, and there was a voice in her heart that was shouting for her to end this battle.
But...as the commander of the Holy Angel Legion and a member of the Imperial Senate.
Now that the holy war duel has begun, she cannot stop it at this time, let alone before the interstellar legions of the two sides have actually confronted each other.
"Your Excellency Zhao Chen, your Xiaolong Legion is very strong.
But my Holy Angel Legion is not a coward, and our Holy Angel Legion will never retreat without a fight!" Santa Cana expressed her thoughts.
"Alas, we are not real enemies yet.
I really don't want to see unnecessary casualties between the two of us." Zhao Chen's voice was helpless, and he also knew that what he said now would probably not be heard by the other party.
After he said this, there was no sound from the other side.
"Don't listen to advice." Zhao Chen looked at Lilith next to him and shrugged helplessly.
Lilith thoughtfully brought up the detailed data panel of the combat effectiveness of both sides in the third battle.
On the side of the Holy Angel Legion, there are three thousand interstellar battleships.
Among them, there are 2,900 combat star battleships and 100 auxiliary star battleships of various types.
Auxiliary interstellar warships include interstellar supply ships, interstellar reconnaissance ships, etc... Among them are interstellar anti-stealth ships, because during the previous investigation of the Xiaolong Legion, there was intelligence showing that the Xiaolong Legion was equipped with interstellar stealth bombers.
There are 2,900 combat-type interstellar battleships, including nearly thirty T4-class interstellar battleships!
The rest are all T3 class star battleships.
This is the terrifying combat power of the Holy Angel Legion.
This is why even Governor Chu Changhe is not completely sure that he can defeat the Holy Angel Legion, one of the ten Holy Light Legions of the Holy Radiance Empire.
However, although there are thirty T4 star battleships, twenty-five of them are T4 Archangel-class medium-sized star destroyers.
There are three types of T4-class star battleships currently in service in the Holy Radiance Empire.
This is different from Warhammer Star Wars, they are the real deal.
T4 Angel of Punishment-class heavy star battleship; T4 Divine Wisdom-class light star cruiser; T4 Archangel-class medium star destroyer.
The most powerful among them is of course the T4 Punishment Angel, which is the card of the Holy Radiant Empire.
The T4 Archangel-class medium-sized star destroyer is the largest number of T4-class star warships currently in service in the Holy Radiance Empire. It is rumored that the number has exceeded 500, and there are even rumors that the Holy Radiance Empire is about to expand to a thousand ships.
This is the advantage of conventional star battleships. They are low-cost and can be built in large quantities and put into service.
This is why Chu Changhe is very eager to own a T4-class star destroyer.
As for the T4 Holy Huiguang-class light interstellar cruiser, it is a shortcoming of the current Holy Radiance Empire. This is why Shengcana wants to obtain the T4 interstellar cruiser technology of the Xiaolong Legion to make up for the technological shortcomings of her own empire.
