Needless to say, the so-called Beiwei are of course the twelve new "assault ships" received from the New Yumen Shipyard. But in fact, of course they were also developed on the basis of the New Shenzhou 1 and 2.
The main weapons are still the extremely powerful anti-matter torpedoes, as well as the brand-new space bubble and light wing facilities.
Different from the "Tiger and Leopard Cavalry" that have been killing everyone in the high sea area of the Milky Way, these small speedboats codenamed "Beiwei" are larger in size. Perhaps the flexibility and side projection have been affected, but the bomb load
and battery life have been further improved, and it can also be equipped with a jump engine.
As long as supplies and maintenance can be ensured, these small boats can be guaranteed to have considerable combat effectiveness after accompanying the main fleet on a long voyage.
And this time, in order to test these "Beiwei", Yang Xiyi sold the two nano-maintenance ships to the Palla people and added them to the Thirteenth Fleet with a wave of his hand.
In this way, Eleanor's order was issued to the entire fleet at an extremely fast speed, especially the twelve back-to-back ships. They quickly moved closer to the two large aircraft carriers Lexington and Saratoga, preparing to install anti-matter torpedoes.
.
After all, dealing with pirates is not so luxurious as to use such a weapon that can kill capital ships.
In the pursuit battle for more than three weeks, they were really playing the role of small assault ships, using various small weapons to harass the guerrillas, but they did not even use light wings and space bubbles once.
But I don’t know if everyone has been waiting for this day for a long time, and the process of reloading only took half an hour. During this process, Major General Marklov, who had been on board the Saratoga, also ordered all fighter planes to
I started making preparations and called the Aurora to complain.
"So, Xiao Yang over at Unity Fortress and you little girl have forgotten that I am the admiral of the Thirteenth Fleet!"
Eleanor seemed to have realized her problem, and she raised her hands in embarrassment and said: "This is really rude. Well, I don't think it's already early in the morning, and you are already asleep, right?"
"
The veteran glared at the other party and said angrily: "I finally understand. Those of us who survived the War of Independence are, after all, the tools of the young and young faction like you. I have already realized this. However, Ellie
Noyo, you took the lead in attacking the empire, but you didn't get the authorization from the Fleet Command!"
"But we already know that the empire is taking action against us."
"Yes, yes, but this is also a personal warning from Yang Xiyi. And he only said that the empire took action and didn't let you fight back, right? This guy is a slippery and leak-proof type."
Ina, who had been listening in, felt that she was a little confused, but Lieutenant Luna Cole, who was younger than herself, was thoughtful.
Eleanor seemed to have understood, and just smiled bitterly and said: "Old man, I am not an irresponsible person."
"I know you are not a villain, but as young as you are, with a promising future, you have not taken any necessary risks to yourself, and cannot leave yourself any chance to regret. In any case, little girl, I am the admiral. I ordered a sneak attack on the empire.
It’s me too, do you understand?”
Eleanor bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and nodded slightly.
At this time, the fleet navigator also brought the latest news. The Silas fleet was really unprepared and was really heading towards the earth-yellow gas giant planet with an aperture and satellites in the outer ring.
"Very good. All fleets will immediately turn around and enter combat posture. Each gun position will begin to warm up!" Major General Marklov said loudly: "After the Beiwei team is completely redressed, it will immediately activate the optical barrier and approach in a straight line, right?"
Eleanor always felt that the Commander seemed a little over-excited, but she still nodded in agreement.
As a result, the fleet immediately began to move.
On the other side, Major General Silas, who was on the battlecruiser Marquis of Buis, also received new changes.
"Strange? It was found that the pulse was abnormal and the mass echo signal changed!" the chief of staff reported the situation.
"What's going on? Is there a celestial change in this galaxy?" Major General Silas was puzzled.
"It came from the direction of 8 o'clock. The subordinate thought that maybe the Earthling fleet was in motion." The chief of staff made this judgment: "Maybe he has discovered traces of Nine Snakes..."
However, the navigator and officer Hoshimi said: "Of course, it is more likely that they are hostile to us. Perhaps we should respond in advance."
The people on the bridge suddenly looked at Officer Hoshimi in astonishment, who said calmly: "You don't really think that we are really close comrades, do you? When leaving the Circle of Miracles, Brunhil
His Royal Highness and General Farrell will tell us how we should deal with our 'allies'."
"You are staring into the abyss, and the abyss is also staring at us. Perhaps we have underestimated the vigilance of the people on earth." Major General Silas smiled bitterly. Obviously, the possibility of carrying out a surprise attack on the earth's fleet is very small.
Already.
"However, gentlemen, your Majesty has your plans, and soldiers also have their responsibilities. Our first priority now is still to take good care of the fleet." Rear Admiral Silas thought about it, and then said: "Don't think too much, just do it.
The good warning is that our fleet is far stronger than the other party."
The officers looked at each other and felt that this approach, although a bit conservative, was the most practical in this inaccessible and unknown galaxy. Even Officer Hoshimi, who looked the most murderous, agreed.
"I suggest that the fleet end its exploration early and be ready to return." Officer Hoshimi suggested.
"Okay! Thank you, Master, for your valuable advice!" Silas nodded and said, "Order the entire fleet to enter the alert state."
However, as soon as his order was conveyed, the mass response suddenly stopped.
This is because the Community fleet suddenly followed the orbit of the fourth planet and entered the back side of the planet.
Even using the superior-performance mass sensing instrument produced by the Empire's Skyfire Design Bureau, it is no longer able to capture traces of the Earth's fleet. This is of course affected by the mass of the planet.
However, to the suspicious Imperial fleet, this was actually a very bad signal.
"The entire fleet forms a spindle formation and switches to the first forward speed, direction 115." Rear Admiral Silas pondered slightly and gave this order.
He must keep the Earth Fleet within his line of sight, even within the firing range of the main gun, in order to ensure the safety of all officers and soldiers.
Therefore, after two hours of emergency fleet movement, the fleets of the two countries were equivalent to making a large circle around the fourth planet.
When the flagship's mass sensor finally captured the familiar signal from the Earth fleet, he was slightly relieved.
"Distance 32! Direction zero! Speed is forward 1." The radar officer reported. At the end of the sentence, his own tone became more relaxed.
The two sides are now at a safe distance, and the other side has not made any dangerous moves to speed up the charge, which may mean that the warning has been lifted.
Rear Admiral Silas and the fleet navigator looked side by side at the distant starry sky. Of course, it was impossible for them to capture anything with their naked eyes at this time, but they still tried to find the little mottled artificial lights in the starry sky.
Fortunately, everything was calm.
At this time, the communications sergeant rushed into the bridge anxiously with a letter translated using gravitational wave signals.
"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General Minontai is calling from Unite."
Silas glanced at it, his heart suddenly tightened, and he had mixed feelings for a while.
However, just before he relayed the contents of the message to everyone, an alarm suddenly sounded from the bridge. Then, the technical officer who was staring closely at the mass response instrument panel couldn't help shouting: "Distance 15!
5 o'clock direction! Speed 4! No, it has entered charging speed..."
5 o'clock direction? Isn't this the back? However, it was only discovered after approaching this position from the back. It is very likely that it is an assault ship or even a manned fighter plane.
The experienced Rear Admiral Silas immediately made the next reaction. He was not panicking at all now. Anyway, the fleet had already set up a circular formation suitable for defense.
"The destroyers start escort mode! The entire fleet, heading towards 12 o'clock, move forward 3. The main guns start charging!" he ordered.
"Resolve and shoot the elements immediately! Prepare to fight! Repeat it! Prepare to fight!" Such an order was immediately transmitted to all imperial warships within three minutes.
On the other side, on the Thirteenth Fleet located directly in front of the Imperial Fleet, all community officers and soldiers have also completed preparations. All battleships have completed shield and main gun warm-up, and the first-floor hangar doors of all aircraft carriers have been opened.
It even opened a crack.
"Distance 27! The enemy fleet's course remains unchanged!" Lieutenant Luna Cole reported.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is the first time I have seen such a stubborn imperial master." Ina said, standing in the observation position.
"I hope all the imperial masters we meet have this kind of virtue." Eleanor said with a smile. As soon as she finished saying this, she vaguely saw a flash of white light in front of her, and it was fleeting, as fast as an illusion.
The young (deputy) commander of the Thirteenth Fleet was slightly startled, and then looked at Ina.
"Xiaguan is only three rings, and the naked eye cannot see so far." Ina said, but she nodded her temple, but my intuition told me: "We have been hit."
Thirty seconds later, the good news of Lieutenant Colonel Dutt carrying No. 1 was delivered.
"The first wave of attacks is completed!" "The space bubble torpedo dropped 12 bombs and hit 4!"
"The enemy fleet's heavy cruisers Saar 3 and Obiko 6 self-destructed! I repeat, Saar 3 and Obiko 6 have been destroyed! The battlecruiser Marquis de Buis was hit by two bullets and suffered heavy damage!"
Such brilliant results seemed like a fantasy. Even someone like Eleanor Bonaparte, who had studied the new light-winged torpedo boat tactics, could not help but be shocked for half a minute, and even suspected that the officer leading the team had lied.
War exploits.
But then, our own radar confirmed this.
It is impossible to confirm whether the empire's flagship was really severely damaged. However, the signals from the two heavy cruisers did disappear.
Immediately afterwards, the next report from Lieutenant Colonel Dut came: "In the first wave of attacks, Beiwei No. 3 was sunk. No. 2 and No. 6 were damaged."
Compared with the glorious results, this loss is not even a loss.
"The enemy fleet has fallen into chaos! The second wave of attacks will begin immediately!" Lieutenant Colonel Dut reported.
Eleanor suddenly realized that if she waited any longer, the battleship here might not even be able to get the soup, so she waved her hand and pointed straight ahead.
"All fleets! Target, Imperial Fleet towards 12 o'clock, advance 4! Charge!"
In this way, the Aurora led a kind of minions, like horse bandits going to thresh the grass valley, roaring and rushing towards the direction of the crossfire. A few minutes later, the chaotic Imperial fleet had passed through the radio telescope,
reflected on the screen.
At this moment, after two rounds of unscrupulous sneak attacks by the Beiwei, the imperial fleet had fallen into complete chaos.
Eleanor just glanced at it with her naked eyes and determined that at least two heavy cruisers and one light cruiser had been destroyed. As the flagship, the Marquis of Buis had a bow full of main guns and a propeller.
The stern of the ship was completely unrecognizable, with only the middle section still looking intact. However, those flickering lights looked more like the moans of a dying person.
Even if she is still alive, she is completely unable to continue to perform the duties of a battleship.
In short, the broken hull of the ship was floating in the cold starry sky like a corpse that had lost its vitality. The remaining surviving ships were stunned and stunned.
At this time, facing the menacing Community warships, they had no room to fight back. Even when the Earthlings came within range, they foolishly did not fire.
So, the people on earth who had no morals in martial arts opened the array, and there was a continuous bombardment on the spot.
"Hit the enemy destroyer Tokon Warrior No. 49!"
"The enemy light cruiser Ruiyunto No. 93 was sunk!"
"Hit the middle part of the enemy's flagship and determined that the shield device has collapsed!"
A series of hit reports caused the Earth soldiers in the bridge to cheer, but it did not last long. To put it bluntly, they were happy and excited, but not particularly excited.
To put it bluntly, shelling a group of panicked enemies is no different from shooting a fixed target. If you shoot too much, it is actually very easy to enter the sage time. Moreover, seeing the arrogant imperial warship become so completely insane,
Although the officers and soldiers of the Thirteenth Fleet were happy, they also felt a little bit unbearable.
Therefore, after using artillery points to kill two cruisers that tried to fight back, the aircraft carriers released fighter jets and surrounded them in a mighty manner. This was of course to prevent the enemy ships from escaping.
Soon, a destroyer at the very end was overtaken by the White Devil Squadron, and its propeller was torn off by gunfire.
So, the fighters, who had been fighting for a whole time, finally took action.
"Require them to surrender?" Ina asked.
"It depends on their attitude. But I hope they choose to be strong. After all, I haven't received the news that the two countries have declared war." Eleanor said.
Lieutenant Luna Cole hesitated to speak.
"Primary school girl, just say what you want to say." Eleanor said.
Cole quickly stood up and said: "I think that maybe some evidence against the empire can be found on the Marquis of Buis. For example, the original communication code that can prove their undeclared war..."
"Hahaha, then I hope they can be more resolute. The Tiruiro people will not leave these flaws for us. However, if there are any, it means that they have plans to completely destroy us.
There is no need to consider any international conventions due to their strength. Since they are determined to fight to the death, I hope they will be more dignified and not increase the burden of prisoners on us."
As soon as the young female general finished speaking such cruel words, a huge fire suddenly burst out from the central cabin of the battlecruiser opposite. It was obvious that the ammunition depot or the energy core had been detonated. I just don't know whether it was man-made or whether it was a sacrifice.
