Nantianmen, a galaxy with a star gate, was originally the most important traffic artery in the community and even the third cantilever. However, since the war began, the waterway here has become busier than before.
The arms and strategic materials transported from the Terra mainland of the Community, as well as the arms and strategic materials purchased from various countries, will all be concentrated at Nantianmen, and then transported to the New World, Gibraltar, and various war zones on the far coast.
Transport ships, troop carriers, new ships that have just come off the slipway and have not yet had time to complete testing, and old ships that have been remodeled and repaired, almost fill the load capacity of all waterways and customs in this system.
But even so, the Blue Star Community government has not yet declared that it has entered a state of all-out war. Therefore, normal scheduled commercial flights are still maintained. Although it is no longer one-third of the busiest time, it is indeed
Still there.
One can imagine how busy this galaxy is now.
Under such circumstances, it is almost impossible for the customs department to inspect all ships entering and leaving Nantianmen according to average standards. In fact, even in peacetime, this average standard is rarely implemented.
As a result, many people did not notice that there was a faint ripple behind a cargo ship coming from the New World.
However, neither the checkpoint nor the three inspection drones floating around showed any reaction. Those drones seemed to have been attracted by the large cargo ship and turned around and floated over.
This is 15:17 on September 24, 833 Common Calendar.
Then, the ripples slowly emerged from the Nantianmen's gorgeous light curtain, which looked like a giant planetarium, and swaggered past a customs inspection station.
At this moment, the customs inspection station felt a slight vibration. This was a natural gravitational reaction caused by a large natural or artificial flying object passing by.
However, just a moment later, the shock disappeared without a trace. It was so fast that everyone at the checkpoint felt that they had just encountered an illusion.
The customs officers had no time to care about these problems. They were more concerned about the fact that there were tens of thousands of civilians coming from New Lushun and New Yumen on the transport ship that had just entered the inspection scope.
When the war started, beacon fires were everywhere in the New World. Ordinary civilians were unwilling to get involved in the war and wanted to take their families to hide in the relatively safe mainland. There is nothing to blame. However, if these people were mixed with the saboteurs of the empire, then
It's their fault.
As for the vibration just now, the universe is huge and there are countless unsolved mysteries. It is normal that no one has discovered it. No one will express doubts about it.
So, without anyone noticing, the culprit of this ripple, a ship invisible to the naked eye and most current inspection methods, quietly left Nantianmen and the busy customs.
area and main channel, and turned into the backside of a giant planet in the distance.
At this time, the invisible ship finally entered the safe zone.
As a result, all the monsters and monsters on the boat suddenly let out a sigh of relief.
"The ship we are traveling on is a majestic ancient ship, a legacy of the Enlightened One! If it was really discovered by the customs, I don't know what expression I should use to express my embarrassment." Pu Lang, codenamed "Black Snake"
Captain Ke said.
"This is obviously your problem, captain, right? I have calculated that based on the performance of this ship, if it is driven automatically, it will not cause any gravitational reaction. You have to do it yourself." First mate Ms. Fantine said.
"I, this, he, you, I also want to test it in advance! You can't cross thousands of mountains and rivers by relying on automatic driving." Captain Planck retorted in a voice that was not very impressive: "Your Majesty, you too
Did you agree?"
"Yes, I agree." Queen Tomitelli showed an impeccable smile.
Miss Bonnie always feels that the queen of the Elor people has an overly refined look in both her posture and her smile. It sounds like a sculpture at best, but it feels like a machine at worst. All in all.
, even more unlike a serious carbon-based organism.
Of course, this emotion passed away in a flash.
Because, the Queen of the Elor people added: "We are all people of this era. We trust our own hands more than automaticity. This will give us a sense of security. The sense of security can be used in many ways,
It allows us to make steady choices, operate freely, and move forward gracefully. Security is a perfect philosophical issue."
Okay, this time it's not like a robot, but more like a snake.
All in all, during this period of time, Tomitelli was in a state of duality between a robot and a snake. However, since the other monsters and monsters on the ship were similar, no one was qualified to raise any questions.
"What happens even if they are discovered? The people of the earth are in danger now. It would be good if they can maintain the current front line. Can they still send troops to pursue us?" Suihuo showed a war-crazed look.
He added: "What if we really chase you? Just kill him on the spot!"
The healing lady "Ling Yu" covered her face with her hands and showed an ugly expression: "Don't fight. Oh, you are such a bad boy. Please don't let us go until the most critical moment!"
Well, that's what it feels like.
"But, to be honest, the people on Earth are very mysterious. Although there are victories from the Unity Fortress and the Blood Gate, they alone cannot defeat the Earth." Captain Plank said.
"Can't they seek support from the Alliance? Don't the vampires of the Alliance like to do this kind of thing and pay people to do it with the Empire. In the past, it was the Myshandar Trolls, then the Falfur Dragons, and then the
The Ero people are now Earth people." Sui Huo said.
As the only Eero person present, Queen Tomitelli pursed her lips and smiled, as if she didn't hear it at all.
As a native of the Alliance Military Academy and a top student, Fantine sneered: "The Alliance has already supported us if we wanted to."
Captain Plank said: "More importantly, I just looked at the customs clearance list. None of the ships passing through Nantianmen today are special transport ships with official alliance background and arms transportation qualifications."
"Have you seen the Nantianmen Customs clearance list?" Fang Ting asked curiously.
"I hacked into their system. I used our Noble Phantasm."
"Hey, little Gangplank, didn't you adapt to the White Devil's function very quickly? Then you almost drove it so fast that it was almost discovered by the customs? What a naughty bad boy." Ms. Lingyu covered her mouth.
He chuckled: "Or do you have other ideas?"
Captain Plank shook his head vigorously, indicating that everything was an accident. If he really had ulterior motives, he would jump out of the hatch of the ship now and die on the spot. Even if he jumped into the engine furnace and used it as fuel, he would be happy with it.
As the only normal person on the ship, Miss Fantine felt that instead of continuing to struggle with these snake diseases, it would be better to listen to the existing news, which is at least okay. She patted her terminal: "Isn't it better yet?"
The voice of Miss Bonnie, the lookout, suddenly appeared in the channel: "Okay, okay, it's okay. We can finally connect to the internal communications of Gibraltar on Earth. However, if you want a more secretive channel for senior generals, just
It’s going to take some time.”
"...We don't have this time. Besides, I don't ask you to hack the inside of Gibraltar Fortress. You just need to be able to connect to the star network."
"Hey? You should have said it earlier. You should have said it earlier! Why didn't you say it earlier?"
Miss Fantine felt that she was still alive and well, which basically proved her mental toughness.
She said patiently: "When we passed through the New Jade Gate before, we knew that the main god of the earth had already gone to the far shore. The leader of the team was probably the Yu Company."
"Yes……"
"We should have reached the vicinity of Shinsunchon."
"Um, could it be that we have already reached the far shore?"
"We've reached the far shore."
"Isn't this a forced march? This is not a wise move." As a top student who has attended the Alliance Military Academy, Miss Fantine made an old-fashioned comment: "After all, you are still young! You are young and energetic, but you have great military achievements.
It will float up. Many young geniuses we know of in history have fallen like this."
"...But, they won." Miss Bonnie didn't know if she should save some face for her friend, but after hesitation, she realized that she couldn't hide it, so she could only say this.
She quickly added: "The fleets of the Bakvi, Letalin, and Laig people on the far shore all collapsed. The empire's forward fleet also suffered heavy losses."
"Is this a battle report from Gibraltar?"
"No. In fact, it was the battle report broadcast by the Star Network. Now, the entire galaxy knows the result."
Anyway, the battle in the Lucknar Corridor T2 system, later known as the First Lucknar Corridor Battle, officially started at seven o'clock in the morning on September 17, 833, Galactic Standard Time, and at
Ends after noon on September 18th.
It lasted just over 30 hours.
Of course, if you include the series of outpost battles in Earl I, the actual start time of the war was actually 3 days ago, when the Sylvester fleet launched an active attack on the T2 system.
In short, before the battle began, because the empire's forward fleet arrived at the Far Shore Nebula ahead of schedule, variables once again appeared on this battlefield that had already tilted the situation several times.
Originally, if the Yulian fleet could arrive at T2 on time, it could cooperate with the Sylvester fleet to annihilate the remaining enemy fleet. But now, they had to face such a new situation.
In front of them, there was already an imperial fleet that was no less powerful than their own, well-trained and recharged, and had already set up a formation.
However, at this juncture, the Blue Star Community fleet, which had fought several battles in succession, still showed shocking decisiveness.
They took the initiative and even decisive attitude to launch the attack. As a result, in the shortest possible time, the two armies fell into a fierce conflict.
Countless beams of light, cannonballs, and shells flew across the dark void, and the light of the explosion cut through the starry sky. The ship's hull was torn apart by the blazing energy storm, and the exploded fragments twisted and flew in the air.
Then, in such a chaotic vortex, it stands to reason that the remaining fleet, which should have been exhausted, completely suppressed the opponent in the shortest possible time.
This unexpected speed actually caught the Imperial fleet by surprise.
Of course, after all, they are the imperial royal fleet full of martial arts, not the brave and foolhardy Legg giants, and the Bakvi people who have neither courage nor strategy but only small calculations. After sustaining the initial fierce bombardment, the empire
The army was still like a dam before a flood, firmly and tenaciously maintaining its defense line, and then began to counterattack in an orderly manner.
However, even so, their capital ship was naturally focused on fire. When the flagship USS Iron Fist dreadnought was hit by twelve sublight speed missiles and three torpedoes at the same time.
The good news is that it was a proton torpedo rather than a space bubble torpedo. The bad news is that the ship's shield was eventually penetrated due to the overload, and then exploded.
The mammoth hull of the flagship Iron Fist began to tremble, causing painful struggles in the cabin and even on the bridge.
"He is indeed the Dragon of Dawn! The other generals on the earth are not worth mentioning. Only this person and Yang Xiyi are the empire's most serious concern." Commander Lieutenant General Germes praised very sincerely: "
Stabilize the front. As long as we hold firm firmly, we will have a chance of victory! The strategic balance will tilt towards our side."
The imperial army indeed behaved steadily, less like an iron fist and more like an iron wall. So, under this situation, the Yulian fleet slowed down its pace and slowly opened the distance.
If things end in this way, it may turn into a long tug-of-war. In the end, both sides will lose their fighting spirit and will end in an anticlimactic end.
But at this moment, the Sylvester fleet, which should be in the role of being rescued, suddenly launched a fierce attack on the flank of the battlefield. At this moment, the people who had been blocked in the fortress by the empire's doglegs did not dare to go out for more than a month.
The frustration and annoyance of not being able to win after taking the initiative to attack, all turned into artillery fire tilted at the enemy's head.
The Bakvi fleet was the first victim. A strong flash of light swept through the darkness and the bulky warships at the same time. The light of the explosion burned the wings and retinas of the birdmen. The light spot formed by the explosion approached in a very short time.
Arriving near the Bakvi flagship.
The birdmen, who had little morale left in the first place, suddenly lost all fighting spirit and were retreating steadily.
"For your Majesty's sake, please give me some help," the Bakvi general urged to the Letalin fleet next door.
"Have you forgotten? When we were in advanced courses at the Royal Naval College, we were classmates two aisles apart, and I even treated you to dinner!" He begged again.
The Laitalin people began to send troops to rescue.
They are like the shadow of the Imperial people. They feel that they should be in line with the Empire in all aspects. Whether it is martial ethics or moral integrity, this should be the case. After all, they cannot just sit back and watch their friendly forces in trouble without moving like a mountain.
However, the Sylvester fleet has been waiting for this moment.
All the armored aircraft carriers in the fleet penetrated into the junction between the two armies. Marine troops gathered from the far shore, New China and other places boarded the Birdman and Goatman ships, transforming the battle situation into the most traditional one again.
Gang hopping and chaos.
At this time, Lieutenant General Sylvester also gathered all the large battleships, passed through the chaotic battlefield, and pounced on the flank of the empire.
Of course, Yu Fleet could not miss this opportunity to attack the enemy from both sides and launched another charge. This time, Yu Company, as the commander of the entire army, once again took the opportunity to go into battle personally.
This should be regarded as the most intense battle since the Battle of the Far Coast Star Territory began.
In the end, after a day and night of fierce fighting plus a time adjustment, two of the Empire's four dreadnoughts were sunk, one escaped, and the flagship Iron Fist was landed and surrendered by Earth's Marines.
Lieutenant General Germes lowered his proud head and presented his sword to Yu Lian in the lens of the reporters accompanying the army in the Far Coast Military Region.
And this scene naturally spread to the entire universe.
