When the alarm started to sound, Yu Lian immediately thought that he should have encountered the rear-cutting force left by the Predator. However, before the Throne's radar could give an exact number of the enemy fleet, he suddenly realized
I realized that my mood was actually frighteningly stable, as if I just met a cat taking a nap in the grass on the roadside in the park.
As a psyker who has experienced many battles, he should have some emergency responses, but he didn't even have the most basic emotional fluctuations.
This either means that in the pirate group opposite there is a supreme psychic master who pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger. Not only can he survive on his own, but he can also use some kind of spiritual array to support the entire fleet to survive together.
But this is illogical! If the opponent really has such sharp means, shouldn't it be able to hide it? How could it be discovered by the passive enemy detection radar of the Throne?
Another possibility is that the enemy fleets on the opposite side that we never expected to encounter really do not pose any threat to us.
...Well, a mature warrior must never raise his tail and must calm down. Yu Lian said to himself, and immediately ordered the throne to switch the speed to normal cruising state and immediately open the full-power shield. Immediately afterwards, he
After confirming the current status of the battleship's main guns, I was relieved to learn that the power supply for the positron main guns and ion main guns had been restored.
His ordering voice was calm and methodical, so the crew members who had been a little nervous before instantly calmed down.
At this time, detailed information about the opposite ship was finally sent to one's own terminal screen.
There are more than thirty large and small ships in total, all of which are naturally modified from various armed merchant ships. Three of them are quite large. Yu Lian estimates that they should be modified from large interstellar freighters of more than three million tons, but the original
There is a model number but I can’t see it at the moment.
These three giant ships alone, at least in terms of appearance and quality, can already compete with the Scarlet Throne, including the Yahadik, which is still very famous in the Black Road, that is,
It is the flagship of one of the famous pirate kings, "Greenbeard" Odgoth.
In addition, Yu Lian was a little surprised that there were actually two Star Guardian Type 2 light cruisers in the pirate fleet. This was an old cruiser from the alliance and had been completely retired by the alliance.
However, even old-fashioned cruisers that have been retired for nearly ten years are still warships.
The great pirate king "Greenbeard" Odgoth is active not only in the New World, but also in the Milky Way mainland. He has a reputation of being able to stop children from crying at night. Many people are wondering how this guy's pirate fleet can travel across the stars.
Damn it, look at it now, it’s true that the saying “I understand everything” is still the same!
"Colonel Soback said the day before yesterday that the Imperial Colonial Fleet in which he served suffered a loss at the hands of this guy. Is that right?" Yu Lian asked.
Feifei nodded and added: "Actually, this is not the only instance where Greenbeard's fleet attacked the army. He also let go of the alliance's fleet, and even attacked the New Miner 1 colonial star of the Minlan Republic."
When Yu Lian was active in his last life, the Pirate King Odgoth had already fallen into disgrace. He didn't know that this person had such a prestigious reputation, so he immediately respected him: "I didn't know that there were such fierce people in the world.
Pirate King, I'm disrespectful! The other party appears here, and I don't know what connection it has with the plunderers."
"Maybe it's just a coincidence?" Feifei smiled.
"Then we can only take the initiative to ask. I hope he is willing to cooperate." Yu Lian said with a smile.
Ever since, the Scarlet Throne wrapped its shield and started to move forward. The current situation is like an armored warrior with the shield raised to his chest, armed to the teeth, riding a tall horse, cautiously heading towards a group of people holding dung.
The old farmer with fork and rake moves forward.
Yes, no matter how powerful a pirate is, he is just a pirate, and the armament gap between him and a dreadnought that is armed to the teeth is at this level.
Of course, the opponent had attacked the naval fleet several times with determination, and even dared to attack various fleets on the colonial star. Who knows if he had any special abilities.
Moreover, even in the cold weapon age, there was no shortage of examples of peasant soldiers killing armored knights.
At the same moment, Yu Lian thought of the great deeds he had done in his previous life, which were really a period of great chivalry and drunkenness! He once again confirmed that he really had to be careful now and made no big mistakes, so he decided to let the ship continue to maintain its
At the normal cruising forward speed, a stunning shot will be carried out immediately after the opponent enters the range of the main gun.
In a sense, pirates' tactics are similar to those of predators. In other words, it is predators who define the industry norms of the space robbery industry in this civilized era.
Yu Lian estimated that since they were pirates and owned three large ships, the opponent should have a large number of full-time stormtroopers.
As for my ship, the Scarlet Throne, it looked like a perfectly intact and murderous Dreadnought, but the biggest problem was that there were too few people on board.
You must not let the other party get close to the gang!
Yu Lian decided to solve the problem with long-range artillery fire with kites, which he was most passionate about.
Of course, kiting a group of pirate ships with a Dreadnought is like a knight armed to the teeth kiting a group of peasant soldiers with a mounted archer. Just listening to it sounds particularly lacking in martial ethics, but someone said that he has never been a knight anyway.
, after all, I was used to being a sea...ranger in my previous life, so naturally I don't have any psychological pressure anymore.
Vega and his friends were all concentrating and holding their breath, somewhat nervous.
Although they have already fought against space crystals, because those "UFOs" are still unrecorded, they still lack a sense of reality, and they are not sure whether what they just did was considered an actual battle. And now, the famous Green Beard
Odgoth's pirate group is right in front of us. This should be considered the first actual combat since boarding the ship, right?
Even the most outstanding military academy graduates will be more or less nervous when they go into actual combat for the first time. It may not necessarily be because of fear, but also a sense of excitement about embarking on a journey.
Yu Lian was also very attentive, carefully observing the opponent's formation... The more than thirty pirate ships did not seem to form any decent formation, and even appeared a bit chaotic, but no one could guarantee that it was not a trap.
Let’s fire a few shots first to see what’s going on!
"Yagnes, can you identify the Yahadik? The orbital main gun is the first to take aim. Once it enters the range, it will fire immediately without waiting for my order!"
This little Gumeiya girl licked her lips with excitement. The battle with the unidentified flying object just now was not her turn to control the main gun, but she was really a little dissatisfied. She put her eyes on the sight
On the ship, she activated Eagle Eye. Soon, she found the most garishly painted pirate ship, with a green-bearded skeleton painted on the side of the ship.
"No problem. I'll make it lie down with the first shot!" Agnes was about to say this, but was stunned by the scene captured by her eagle eyes, and then said loudly: "Ahadik
No., are you retreating?"
Yes, the famous pirate king "Greenbeard" Odegot and his famous subordinates, like a group of frightened lambs, dispersed in all directions.
.
Is this, is this some kind of high-level trap? Fraud?
Yu Lian was shocked.
"Yu'er, no matter how powerful a pirate is, he is just a pirate." Feifei lowered her voice.
Yu Lian reacted immediately. Indeed, no matter how ferocious pirates are, they are just pirates, a rabble gathered for profit. No matter how tough they are, they cannot really turn into an iron army with orders and prohibitions. Such high-level fraud as fraud
Even the slightest hint of enemy tactics will turn a false defeat into a real defeat, and no leader in his right mind would dare to play it.
Even if they had some unknown conspiracy, their retreat at this time must be real.
"The sublight engine operates at full power, and the entire ship enters charge speed!"
Yu Lian shouted the order, and Feifei quickly conveyed it.
"Yagnes, the main gun at the bow of the ship is handed over to you. Fire as you please."
"No need to aim at the Yahadik?"
"No need. Apart from her, the rest of the enemy ships can sink only a few." Yu Lian said with a smile.
Now that the other party was ready to escape, Yu Lian became curious and must catch the other party and ask him face to face why he was running away.
As a result, the main cannon bought from the Toss Merchant Group finally started firing its first salvo. This may also be the first roar of the fearless giant ship from the Milky Way Galaxy in the New World.
Unfortunately, there was no success in one blow.
The orbital artillery shell penetrated the tail of a giant ship of the same level as the Yahadik and floated into the endless void.
...This is actually understandable. When bombarded with a railgun at this distance, even the top marksman's hit rate will not exceed 20%.
Agnes was very dissatisfied and snorted coldly. After a three-second pause, she started the second bombardment.
This time, the shell still did not hit any giant ship, but it hit a Guardian-class cruiser very delicately. The old cruiser, which is a heavy weapon in the world of pirates, was in front of the dreadnought's orbital main gun.
But it was as fragile as a building block, and a large section of the hull was torn off on the spot. The entire ship lost power and remained silent.
The pirates became even more panicked, and even two small pirate ships crashed into each other in a panic, which was really ugly.
There was even a pirate ship that was estimated to be at least one million tons in size. It seemed that it felt that it could not escape, so it simply shut down its engine and used its signal light to create a white curtain of light.
However, until this time, Yu Lian still felt that this group of pirates might still have some conspiracy, so he did not immediately accept the surrender of the pirate ship. He just casually blasted an electromagnetic radiation bomb at the other party's ship when passing by.
After confirming that its engine and main gun could not be started for a while, he dropped it where it was and continued the pursuit.
