Him and their stars.

Chapter 318 Don't Shoot, Yourself

It was a convoy composed of more than forty large and small ships, and in this distant nebula, it could be regarded as a rather large military force.It's just that, like almost all pirate groups, their ships are full of uneven modifications, and the ship's shape, firepower, protection, and speed are very inconsistent, so naturally it is impossible to rule out anything too strict Huge queue.

In addition, we all know that the purpose of pirates has always been to rob rather than sink, and their armaments have naturally adhered to the classic combination of panacea.The speed must be fast, otherwise the navy will not be able to catch up with the prey, but the pirates cannot get the best military engine, so they can only find ways to modify it randomly.The firepower can't be too strong, if you accidentally sink the prey, it will be useless.Real men who can dance and fight in hand-to-hand combat also have to bring enough, after all, when you have to rob, you need manpower.In addition, warehouses have to be prepared, and some warehouses are even more professionally designed than cargo ships.After all, no one can guarantee that they won't grab some precious spoils that need special attention.

In short, purely in terms of combat effectiveness, pirate ships are typical and ordinary.

Of course, there may be exceptions to this.For example, the flagship of this pirate fleet is a very evil-looking giant ship, which is more than a circle larger than the largest ranger class of the Thirteenth Fleet.The paintwork is pure black, and the front bow has sixteen main gun ports, which looks quite bold.

However, if you take a closer look, the hull of the ship is a bit thin, and it always looks top-heavy.Yu Lian even suspected that once the sixteen main guns fired a salvo, the hull would fall apart.

"It should be refitted with the Alliance's Icewind Valley-class large-scale armed merchant ship." Akinayama Hachiman looked at the image of the ship sent over, and then pointed to the logo of a triangular skull on the side of the ship: "It's confirmed, it's Moda's Main fleet!"

"Is this for revenge?" Yi Na muttered.

Eleanor sneered and said, "If he gathers in Kerna City, I still have a headache."

Senior sister's force should be only one-third of the opponent's, but she didn't find it difficult at all, and even felt lucky.Fortunately, the other party came to deliver the head himself.

The pirates in the Far Shore Nebula are really incomparable with those in the New World!Senior thinks.

The pirates of the Far Shore Nebula are really incomparable to those of the Abyss Nebula and the Helix Nebula!Yu Lian thought.

There are many ships on the other side, but no matter how you look at them, they are all a bunch of mobs, which really make people lose their fighting spirit.

"Colonel Bonaparte, the old rules, the command is given to you. You can use this old man as an aircraft carrier captain." Brigadier General Mark Love sent a communication, still surprisingly free and easy.

However, before disconnecting the communication, he added another sentence: "Don't underestimate the enemy!"

It is probably the old man's nature to be prudent and prudent.However, his reminder was not completely useless. At least Eleanor cheered up a minute earlier and began to issue orders in an orderly manner: "According to the original plan, start the battle formation! Analyze the dynamics of the enemy fleet!"

This time, the fleet led by Corsica and Luoyang began to advance.Destroyers spread out on either side of them, opening the torpedo and missile exits.The assault ship opened the front line and made preparations for an outflank assault.

Wudu and Venice remained on standby.Of course, all the fighter planes in the Wudu are ready to attack, but the commander of the fleet does not plan to send out the "stormtroopers" in the Venice this time.

Aren't they just pirates? If they are really forced to the point where they have to fight and bite, then Eleanor's command made a mistake.

The fleets of the two sides are still approaching, and in the huge starry sky, there is a feeling of encountering each other on a narrow road.It's just that, compared to the well-organized Thirteenth Fleet, the pirates there are always a bit chaotic.

There is no way, the pirates have always been in groups of three or four, like a group of hunting hyenas, walking in every corner of the nebula, and basically have no experience in fighting large fleets.

However, since it was an artillery battle formation, the opponent did not let the flagship with fierce firepower come to the front, but let seven or eight warships that looked very solid at first sight lined up all the time, putting on a defensive counterattack. look.

"Tsk, coward!" The senior who always liked to rush to the front row expressed her full disdain for this behavior.

"This is also understandable. The boss of the pirate group is not a general who orders and prohibits, nor does he lead well-trained regular soldiers, but more like the leader of an alliance of outlaws. His ship, his loyal strength, That's the basis for him being able to roar together in the mountains and forests." Yu Lian said: "In addition, with the quality of the pirates, it's not bad to be able to form a defensive and counterattack formation. We can't expect them to really have the ability to fight us head-on."

The senior sister nodded, and then felt that something was wrong, and said loudly: "... Period, expectation, I didn't expect it! Yuli, don't stain people's innocence out of thin air!"

She probably still wanted to retort (da) lips (qing) (ma) sneer (qiao) a few times, but she heard a cough behind her, and then vaguely felt that the camera of the automatic drone had been aimed at her back, and immediately coughed solemnly: "The charging status of the orbital main gun?"

"Good condition!" Ina replied loudly, rolling her eyes.Anyway, her small face is now facing the dashboard, and no one can see her expression.

"Then, the old rules, after entering the maximum tactical range, start shooting at the enemy's No. [-] ship! No need to wait for my order!"

The high-power orbital main guns equipped on the two rangers are far above the pirate fleet in power and effective range (not theoretical range), so they are destined to take the lead in the shelling battle.After three bombardments, they accurately hit the so-called "Enemy No. [-] Ship" for the fourth time.

The armored ship, a fat armed merchant ship, was not particularly damaged, but it stopped on the spot as if it had been struck by lightning.

Immediately afterwards, Yi Na fired another cannon, this time it indeed penetrated the armor of the enemy ship and entered its interior.

Like a stray dog ​​that had been kicked in the stomach, the pirate ship turned its head and left the battlefield directly.

And until this time, the fleet on the pirate side hadn't even finished shelling.

"Moda's subordinates don't have much fighting spirit!" Qiu Mingshan Hachiman said: "You can try to be a little more proactive."

The senior sister continued to do good deeds, even ordering a change of formation.

Wudu and Venice began to advance.These two ships are reinforced with hangars and protection, but they are multi-purpose cruisers after all, and they have at least the main guns.The four cruisers lined up in a standard bombardment formation, firing salvos in turn. On the one hand, they increased the firepower projection against the enemy fleet, and on the other hand, they also served as a kind of firepower cover.

The target of the cover is naturally the destroyers.

Without any hesitation, the five destroyers directly entered the charge speed.The soldiers on board have been bursting with courage recently. They even rushed past the warships of the empire, and now they are even less afraid of the firepower of pirates.

Besides, Akinayama Hachiman's judgment is also correct.Although this pirate fleet is large in scale, its fighting spirit is really not very good. The firepower used for counterattack always seems a little careless. When the destroyer is forced to go, there is even obvious confusion.As a result, the only two destroyers of the Thirteenth Fleet were hit by the light beams and suffered minor injuries, but they managed to smash the dense missiles and torpedoes into the enemy fleet.

One of the pirates' enemy ships was directly hit by three torpedoes and five missiles, and it died on the spot.At the same time, at least four enemy ships were determined to be shot and suffered considerable damage.

They obviously did not have a unified command, or in other words, they were not willing to follow Moda's instructions at all.Some ships want to fight back, some want to back off, and some even want to run away.

Ever since, for as long as five minutes, the pirate fleet did not shoot an effective shot at the community fleet that had already entered their range.The current bombardment is not so much a counterattack, but the pirates feel that "wouldn't it be very embarrassing if they don't fire the cannon", so they simply went about their routine.

"It's not just a lack of fighting spirit, it's simply standing in the street with friendship!" Yu Lian thought.

He really understood the mentality of the pirates so well that he quickly guessed the current situation.

The people sent by Moda were wiped out in the Luna galaxy, and at the same time, the empire that worked closely with him suffered a big loss, and his main customer-the Lumina rebels basically died. Got the news.

If Moda, the big pirate, didn't show some courage to take revenge, he would definitely be treated as a persimmon by his half-hearted subordinates.However, the ones with the most lack of fighting spirit are also the big and small pirate leaders at both ends of this group of snakes and rats.

They only know that the Thirteenth Fleet even beat up the Empire, isn't it just to sprinkle water on these pirates?

I have to say that Moda is also really difficult.Therefore, being a gangster and being the boss is actually a technical job, and if you don't have this level, you really can't force it casually.

Of course, at this juncture, even the oldest and most prudent Brigadier General Mark Love will know that at this stage of the war, his side's victory is unshakable.

"Your Excellency, you can get the fighter plane ready to take off."

"Where's the assault landing craft on the Venice?"

"There's no need to take risks," Eleanor replied.

Brigadier General Marklove nodded approvingly.

In the next three minutes, the cruisers of the Thirteenth Fleet fired several rounds of bombardment and sank two large pirate warships again. The rest of the small and medium ships fell into a state of defeat, and then the assault ships that rushed over It was blocked, and it was driven to the center of the pirate fleet, forcing it into an even more chaotic state.

In fact, in this battle, Moda's only chance is to use his core loyalists as the main force to win this battle.It's a pity, pirates are pirates, and they are destined to be a bunch of ungrateful and self-sacrificing masters.

There was nothing to watch in this battle, so Yu Lian decided to ask his senior sister to leave the bridge to sleep.He reckoned that after this battle, it would be the fortress of Kerna, and he should recharge his batteries.

However, at this moment, the pirate warship on the opposite side that hadn't participated in the battle suddenly started to move forward.After all, its size is there, once it runs, it really has a few times menacing taste.

Oh oh oh, are you finally going to do it yourself?Yu Lian immediately looked at Moda with admiration.Although this guy was very crotch just now, at least, at a critical moment, he still showed some courage of a great pirate.

Just when the bloated pirate ship was about to enter the range, a series of lights and signals were suddenly played on the ship, and then a pure white light curtain with an astonishing area was opened.

"Oh, the French flag!" Yu Lian was amazed.

Eleanor glared at Yu Lian viciously, squinted her eyes and read the light signal from the other party, feeling a little unbelievable for a moment: "Surrender?"

"Yes, it's the surrender signal." Hachiman pushed his eyes.

"Sir, the enemy ship sent a communication request. It is blue frequency. It is indeed a surrender signal." The communication officer also said loudly.

It's not easy!The "white flag" was raised, the "semaphore" was sent, and the newsletter was sent, as if they were afraid that we would send them away with a single shot.

Yu Lian still respects Mr. Moda in awe.He has always felt that for a great pirate who has done all kinds of bad things to be able to kneel so openly now, in a sense, he is more courageous than fighting to the death.

He really wanted to see how divine the other party was.A Lumina who "relocated" became a great pirate and one of the underworld chiefs of the Far Shore Nebula. He really shouldn't be a simple person.

However, it was not Moda who connected to the communication, but a middle-aged human male.

"Don't fire! Ms. General, my own!" The human waved loudly.

He then bent down again, holding up a bloody triangular Lumina head in everyone's inexplicable sight: "Moda, I have already killed you. I sincerely defected to the government."
