"Your Excellency, Snake Den has opened fire on us!" the radar officer shouted: "Twelve orbital artillery shell signals and forty-two missile signals."
Well, it deserves to be a mobile fortress, at least the firepower is really fierce. Of course, it also deserves to be a snake, and what stands out is that it is narrow-minded. Didn’t I just fire a few tentative shots? As for you, you responded directly to the three
Come with double the firepower? From such a long distance, you can't hit me, and I can't hit you. Yu Lian shook his head slightly.
Of course, what is certain is that the performance of the missiles launched by Snake Lair should be much more advanced than the Gungnir type long-range missiles used by the community. It may be possible to accurately target targets at such a long distance.
It constantly corrects its trajectory, adjusts its speed, automatically avoids interception fire, and its maneuverability is quite good.

However, our own cruiser had already thrown out mines equipped with concussion bombs in advance, forming an isolation zone and blocking all strike firepower from sight.
Obviously, the Snake Den on the opposite side did not expect these bombardments to threaten the Earth's fleet. After completing the first round of shooting, they temporarily stopped firing and just continued to attack the Earth's fleet like a huge space ghost.
direction, floating over in a rather strange and somewhat spectacular manner.
At this time, its huge drone clusters did not continue to bite the guard fleet, but returned to the snake's lair, suspended beside the mother body in a relatively static manner. When they gathered together, they
It seemed like a large shimmering thick fog formed around the huge silver mushroom head, which gave it a bit of an aura from a cosmic horror movie.
"Does this mean that those unknown fighters still have a relatively obvious need for combat radius?" Chief of Staff Mkawa said in a consultative tone: "If this is indeed the case, the advantages of manned fighters will be more obvious."
As soon as the chief of staff said this, Colonel Singer reacted immediately and jumped up from his seat on the observation deck on the third floor of the bridge.
"They're coming!" he shouted.
Speaking of which, you were obviously just a supervisor of the army, when did you go to where?
Brigadier General Mkawa's expression remained normal, but his cheek seemed to be twitching unnaturally, and he quickly joined everyone in looking at the newly popped up real-time battlefield window.
Then, as expected, it was discovered that some triangular drones in the shape of arrows separated from the host group, accelerated suddenly, and rushed toward us with a roar, like a rain of arrows shooting at everyone.
"Your Excellency, Colonel Walter has made preparations for anti-jump gang operations." said the chief of staff.
"Thanks for your hard work."
"Brigadier General Zuo Wanhu said that all soldiers of the 4th Brigade of the 1st Marine Division are already wearing armor. He can allocate two regiments to strengthen the defense of the bridge and all key equipment."
Is this a tacit understanding that the Fuxi will be landed by those drones?
"Thank you for your hard work. Please keep him on standby. Tell him that the war hammer will be swung out at the right time."
"Enemy aircraft 125 to 200. Speed...speed 3!" Colonel Singh said loudly again.
"You accelerated to this level in just three or four seconds?"
"What kind of black technology is this!"
"The empire's purple electric dragon can't do it, right? What about our white devil?"
"...It seems okay to use that one? Here, we also equipped two squadrons of White Devil fighters on the Teutonic Forest."
Of course Yu Lian heard the whispers of several officers on the bridge, but at this time, Commodore Tovey also asked again: "Fighters taking off to meet the enemy?"
"It's not yet time." Yu Liandao said: "Tell Colonel Varus that the time when the bayonet will see blood will definitely come, but you need to wait for the opportunity."
"How many mine belts are left?" he asked again.
This time Chief of Staff Mkawa answered him: "64 percent."
Yu Lian nodded to Brigadier General Tovey beside him.
The old sailor raised no objection and quickly issued the commander's order to each battleship in a loud voice. Then, with the Fuxi as the core, the entire fleet began to turn and move clockwise, and began to accelerate.
Subsequently, this fleet composed entirely of high-speed battleships quickly brought the entire fleet to the first attack speed, and instead widened the distance from the snake's lair.
As for those drones, a few did crash into the mine belts and caused extremely violent explosions on the spot. However, this group of drones that had behaved like wasps before did also show their behavior at this time.
The intelligence, which was far more powerful than artificial retardation, really did not follow the trend and crash into the group of machine mines. Instead, after circling in place for a few times, it retreated to the main force in frustration.
As Snake Den continued to move forward, it fired again at the clockwise-moving Earth Fleet. This time, it was still a railgun with an infinite theoretical range. Anyway, they had such a round mushroom head shape, as if they could be fired from every direction.
Like a fire.
However, as the distance between the two sides was widened, the bombardment of the Snake Lair still smelled of incompetence and rage.
"Intelligence shows that there is a high-power positron fortress cannon on the snake lair." Chief of Staff Mkawa said.
Yu Lian nodded. This was what the white-haired fox said to him personally, and he confirmed this from the leader of Gongda. However, although the super-powerful energy main cannon can cause astonishing spread damage,
The range is actually limited.
"Your Excellency, we may be able to reduce the speed a little to try to find out the range of the main gun in the Snake Lair. This may help in subsequent operations." As soon as Chief of Staff Mkawa suggested this, Yu Lian was ignored.
He glanced at the same person without heat. The latter's hair suddenly stood on end, and he quickly lowered his head to apologize, but still said:
"Sorry, Your Excellency, this proposal will indeed greatly increase the casualty rate of our army. But..."
"As the Chief of Staff, you have the responsibility to make any suggestions at any time." Yu Lian smiled and said: "It's just that, Chief of Staff, we don't need to work so hard. We have already fired the first shot against the Snake Lair and saved the friendly forces.
Are you still ready to steal all the limelight?"
This is indeed the case. At least, when Snake Den focused its attention on the Earth Fleet, the pressure on the joint security fleet there suddenly dropped sharply. Now, only a few of the most powerful battle groups in the Spiral Cross Nebula are left.
Half of the ships were there, and the casualties exceeded 60%. All the capital ships that appeared in the sight of the snake pit were sunk.
But no matter what, the remaining battleships finally survived, and there was even enough time to rescue the comrades in the wreckage.
At this time, the headquarters of the combined fleet also sent a communication request to Yu Lian, naturally to express their gratitude.
"This is what it should be. However, I would also like to ask your noble officer to quickly locate all the ships that can still fight near the orbital space cities of the 4th and 5th planets, and temporarily serve as mobile forts and firefighters. Canchuan Galaxy
The population and space city density are very high, so it is difficult for me to ensure that there will be no accidental damage in the subsequent battles." Yu Lian sighed.
The commander of the Joint Security Fleet is a man with black and blue skin, but after hearing this, his face suddenly turned pale and no longer black.
At this time, the Imperial Advisory Group that was sitting in the Garrison Fleet Headquarters also sent their own communication. The Imperial Army Colonel who headed it made a neat military statement to Yu Lian, and then said in a serious tone as if reporting to a superior:
"Your Excellency, Commander, the main force of our fleet has arrived in the Hongton 01 system. It will take five to six hours at the earliest before reaching this system. Please hold on for a while longer."
The movements of the imperial fleet are quite fast, and they are already on a forced march. After this battle, it is estimated that more than half of the warships will have to go into the dock for maintenance.
However, it is a pity that due to the distance, the imperial fleet will be the last to arrive.
At this time, the Imperial Army colonel hesitated again and said: "In addition, can we try to protect the safety of civilian facilities and space ports to prevent civilians from being harmed by the world-wide snake?"
Yu Lian took a look at the other person and saw that he was a typical warrior of medium height, broad build, and strong face. He had very ordinary brown hair and calm dark brown eyes.
Yu Lian said frankly: "I can't do it, Colonel. At least, I can't do it before reinforcements arrive."
"...My subordinate made a mistake. The request just now is indeed very unreasonable, and I am really sorry." A trace of anger flashed across the Imperial Army Colonel's face, but he still fully expressed his understanding.
Yu Lian glanced at the space city complex in the orbit of the fifth planet and knew that the headquarters of the security fleet was there. However, there were two space cities wrapped in smooth mirror domes, which made them look particularly gorgeous.
Suddenly located at both ends of the planet's orbit, it was immediately far away from the rest of the space city.
If the atmosphere of Planet 5 is used as the ground standard, these two space cities are indeed located "higher" in the starry sky than the rest, just like upper-class gentlemen must keep their distance from hard-working and down-to-earth workers.
Then, Yu Lian's bad taste began to bubble up.
"Those two are your country's Ecological Garden City Museum and the orbital holiday camp invested by the alliance, right? It's not the peak tourist season, so there should be no people there."
"The personnel above have evacuated to the military port of the guard fleet in advance." The colonel said.
The military port of the garrison fleet is a fortress standard. After all, it is protected by military armor and shields.
"Then let's adjust the simulated gravity torque of those two things. I guess, with the gravity of Planet 5, they should collide and break up on the outer periphery, forming a space garbage belt, but it can more or less affect the space in the inner circle.
The cities play a protective role to a certain extent." Yu Lian said with a smile.
He originally just said it casually with bad intentions, but the Imperial Army colonel's eyes lit up: "I understand, I understand. This can indeed have a certain effect, and maybe it can give us an extra hour or two."
