Him and their stars.

Chapter 926
Having said that, everyone present didn't even have the experience of attacking Sky Fort, let alone ten of them added together.

Having said that, Sky Tower is the largest space fortress built by the Galactic Empire with its fanatical megastructure fetish.Each of them can undertake the repair and maintenance of Titan ships, can produce almost all weapons, energy and various types of consumable accessories for the fleet and marines, can build large and medium-sized warships above heavy cruisers, and has barracks that can accommodate three to four million soldiers and civilians and living facilities.There is even a large-scale orbital commercial city, supporting civil facilities and a large number of ecological farms.

In addition, even the smallest Sky Fort is equipped with more than a dozen fort main guns that can tear apart a Titan ship.

What would happen if there were ten such fortresses stacked on top of everything? Everyone really lacked intuitive imagination, but they were indeed frightened.

However, perhaps it is precisely because of being frightened that more and more Treasure Talents put forward many bold suggestions.

So, on July 7th, Prince Charon Scarletmane of the Kaitai Kingdom gave a suggestion to use small and medium-sized warships to carry assault landing craft in skirmish formations.In this way, no matter how powerful the giant artillery of the enemy fortress is, it will only have the effect of hitting mosquitoes with the artillery, and it is impossible to cause too much damage to the own fleet.

King Thorane said that this was a very creative idea, and he approved Prince Charon Scarletmane and his Kaitai fleet to carry it out.After all, although the Kaitai big cats are not very good at sailing, they are indeed a very brave warrior nation, which is suitable for this kind of work.If they can really rush up, the battle rhythm might enter their home court.

We should be able to guess the later results.During the attack, the Kaitai Kingdom dropped more than [-] corpses that turned into space dust and [-] warships, and even the flagship Battlecruiser Lie Wang was severely damaged.

Of course, it's not that there are no victories at all.It is said that nearly [-] Kaitai stormtroopers wearing special space power armor boarded the fortress, but they were all destroyed without even breaking through the outer wall.

After the great battle, the seriously wounded Kaitai prince Charlene Scarlet Mane lay in front of King Soleen, wrapped in a thick blood-oozing bandage. To the great cause of the Empire, we are not afraid of this little sacrifice for the good of the entire galaxy.

Such a scene of loyalty made King Thorane a little bit unbearable, so he ordered a banquet to entertain him.

"No, we Iron Claws are fighting for the victory of the whole army. We will not eat until we reach the fortress!" The generals under Prince Kaitai shouted: "Let's charge again!"

At that moment, all the Kaitai people present seemed to be possessed by the loyal Xueyong, and each of them seemed to turn their lives and souls into lights that lit the way forward for the entire army.That scene couldn't even be called burning, it was simply heroic.

Even if the commander-in-chief of the empire had no blood or tears, he was embarrassed to let the Kaitai continue to charge, so he let them retreat to rest.In order to prevent these red-eyed big cats from getting too high, they even turned the intact battleships into escort fleets, responsible for the safety of the rear supply line.

At this time, Bie Guo, who watched the whole performance of the Kaitai people, suddenly realized that these big cats are so reckless!Obviously extremely smart!
But no matter what, the empire and the community mobilized their friends and mobilized large fleets of this size to approach the city, and they couldn't just accept the troops and return to the court on the spot just because of the existence of an ancient fortress.So, on July 7, after a full 21 hours of dispatching troops, the expeditionary force began to launch the first general attack from two routes.

The attackers managed to tear a hole in the outer wall of the fortress.After the first outer walls that looked like meteorite shells were peeled off by tens of thousands of siege nuclear missiles, the subsequent metal shells were exposed.

Hundreds of large arsenal ships concentrated their salvos of light spear main guns, as if forming a thick beam of light comparable to the main guns of a fortress, and successfully created the first dazzling explosion on the fortress.

Afterwards, there was a larger-scale gang-jumping attack.

This general attack lasted a full forty hours.From the beginning to the end, there is no too inscrutable tactical operation, it is the most appropriate, but it is overwhelmed with force.

This tragic battle did indeed cause considerable casualties to the Marauders.The stormtroopers even managed to break through to the inside of the fortress, occupying a large cabin equivalent to the size of a city, and brought back a lot of information.

However, the loss of one's own side was still so great that the dragon kings who had no blood or tears were moved by it.Even the Titanship Dragon of Time and Space was hit by the main gun of the fortress.

Facts have proved that the empire's shipbuilding technology is indeed the best in the world, and the battleship was not sunk by the fortress artillery.

Facts have also proved that since this fortress will be regarded by the looters as a trump card to defend their homeland, there is a reason for it.This Titan ship, known for its hard tortoise shell, was seriously injured on the spot, and even the life support system inside the ship was disabled for more than five minutes.

More than [-] crew members lost their lives in extreme pain.

During those five minutes, the Dragon of Time and Space could only staggered out of the battlefield.During this process, several predator warships thought they could take advantage, and swooped over, like a group of hyenas preparing to hunt a seriously injured lion.

Fortunately, the Dawn Angel next to it arrived at a critical moment, a burst of artillery fired to disperse the Marauder warship, threw out a tractor beam, and dragged the friendly ship with a tonnage even a circle larger than itself out of the battlefield.

By the end of the general offensive on July 7, the attacker had lost hundreds of warships, including two battle cruisers and a Dreadnought, and more than 23 dead.In the fifty years since the end of the last Galactic War, there has been no battlefield of this intensity.

The casualties paid by the predators should not be small, but when it comes to the exchange ratio, it must be their own side that suffers.

Especially Countess Giafell, who was under the command of Brunhilt, when she led a group of stormtroopers to attack, she saw with her own eyes a light brown young Elero warrior holding a bundle of ion salt bombs. , and a squad of Waughlin stormtroopers died together.

The Elero warrior was light-skinned, and the horns on his forehead and back of his head were not hardened, which was a sign of an Elero underage.

"If one-third of the enemies in this fortress are like this, such a strong attack is meaningless." The countess advised King Suliuka: "We must think long-term."

King Suliuka admitted that his best friend was right, so he suggested to King Soleen to withdraw his troops.

If the opponent is a hot-blooded stunned young man, he may have already gritted his teeth and ordered the soldiers to hit them with their heads, and they must also smash the armor of the enemy's fortress, but King Thorane, who has experienced many battles, is very calm. Accept the reality of this war faux pas.

"These barbarians are really showing the courage to defend their home and country!" King Thorane said with a smile: "None of the nationalist rebels within the empire's control has shown the same fighting spirit."

"How about the earth rebels led by Marshal Victoria Lee?" Brunhilt asked with interest.

"I don't know, I was still a child at that time." King Thorane shrugged: "However, people on Earth are also human beings, and Marshal Li is also a rare hero. At that time, even if the number of soldiers on Earth was limited, Naturally, it is a strong army that can contend with us. Unfortunately, Brunhilt, the most terrifying weapon in this world may still be time!"

The young Su Liuka Wang Miao understood the meaning of the other party, nodded and said: "I will negotiate."

Then, naturally, the troops were withdrawn.

The operation of the imperial guards is indeed very particular. When retreating, they tried their best to bring all the stormtroopers who boarded the fort back to the ship.You know, more than half of these stormtroopers aren't even human.This should be replaced by most of the Kaitai big cats who don't regard the soldiers at the bottom as human beings, and they will definitely abandon the soldiers as discarded children.

However, in order to pick up everyone, the empire even paid the price of two frigates.

In the eyes of the high-level officials of most civilized countries, two large battleships with thick skins and thick shields that can be hit by meteor showers are much more valuable than cannon fodder for tens of thousands of stormtroopers. Don't hesitate to use any method to shape the military spirit at any time.

At the military meeting afterwards, he told his own side and the generals of all "allies" that he was responsible for all failures.I have remembered all the efforts and military achievements everyone made in the battle, all the wounded will be properly resettled, and the dead will naturally enjoy the moxa.

"This is indeed a tough nut to crack. But, gentlemen, you should all understand that the looters have always rarely fought tough battles with us, but now they have done so. This will not let everyone Think of the Eero Empire that stained half the universe with blood and flames a thousand years ago? Do you really want to see that era come back?"

Blood and war, it seems that your Galactic Empire plays less than others.Isn't the reason why the Eero people are praised because they threaten human supremacy?Even for this goal, you can hold your nose and cooperate with the old rival alliance.In addition, if you think about it carefully, isn't the reason why the Eleros can grow bigger because they ride on the wall between the empire and the alliance?To put it bluntly, isn't it supported by your empire, and now it's here to act as an envoy of justice?

I have never seen such a brazen person in my life.

Among the generals of various countries present, there should still be wise people who are familiar with history books and have a clear mind.

It is a pity that the educated are a minority after all, and group memory can be shaped.After nearly a thousand years of spring and autumn writing and propaganda, most people can't remember how the Errow Empire came into being, but they only know that they were once the biggest villain in the entire galaxy and the source of all evil things.

Even the predecessor of the Galactic Civilization Council was established to destroy this evil empire.

Everyone has already thought of the "Universe Demon Realm" thousands of years ago. Many people seem to have been awakened from childhood shadows, and their eyes flashed solemnity and even fear.Of course, there are quite a few generals who seem to have been beaten to death. They must have thought of the list of generals whose names were left in history after the third Galactic War that destroyed the Eero Empire.

King Thorane nodded with satisfaction in his heart, and said again: "However, from another perspective, the Eeros, trolls, and long-bearded demons are now as crazy as a group of female beasts protecting their cubs. What does this mean?"

What else could it represent?The enlightened relics that promote the progress of the entire society, gem-like habitable planets, and countless rare minerals and fascinating unknown resources.

The commander of the Imperial Expeditionary Fleet has never publicly stated that he would share the "spoils" with everyone, but everyone is a decent person, and it is enough to say that.

"This fortress is also the legacy left to us by the Enlightened Ones. If we cannot take it back from the looters, it will be our betrayal of the Enlightened Ones who guide us, and even more so, our betrayal of the Spirit of the Universe! I mean, everyone Do you understand?"

Of course, everyone understood that the reason why King Thorane said this meant that he was not going to use the terrifying colossus weapon against this fortress.

...Of course, with the power of the Colossus weapon, the "Devil's Throat" galaxy might be wiped out if it is operated carelessly.Although the main force of the predators is gone, maybe everyone will lose the only way to enter its hinterland.

The next day, everyone regrouped and prepared to fight again.

This time, it changed to a standard siege tactic.The imperial fleet concentrated one hundred and twenty heavy arsenal ships, and began intensive shelling towards the enemy fortress from an extremely long distance.You must know that the range of the railgun is theoretically unlimited, and the opponent is so big and a fortress comparable to a planet, it is much easier than fighting a battleship.

This is also one of the most effective fortress attack tactics in this era when shields are far stronger than spears.Such continuous ultra-long-distance shelling, even if the damage is limited, but the psychological pressure on the fortress defenders is extremely great, and it is more likely to force the fortress defenders fleet out.In this way, fleet chaos can be formed, so that the fortress cannon cannons dare not launch easily.

This time, the ultra-long-range shelling did not work.Within three hours, none of the tens of thousands of shells fired by the [-] arsenal ships hit the fortress.

Even with an average ultra-long-range bombardment of [-] million kilometers, such a hit rate is indeed too touching.

On the other side, a group of fast fleets were preparing to bypass the fortress and search for the hinterland channel leading to the "Devil's Labyrinth". Target.

"We didn't catch any gravity well signals," said the returning fleet navigator.

"It's impossible! We saw with our own eyes the Marauder warships coming in and out from that direction." A general said that this is really unscientific, and he couldn't believe it.

"It's hard for me to understand, but it's true." The commander of the squadron also looked like he had hit a ghost.The empire just discovered the traces of the marauder fleet entering and exiting the galaxy, so it was ready to go and find out.After all, our own fleet still has an overwhelming advantage. As long as we control the access channel and directly attack the hinterland of the star field, no matter how strong and strong this ancient fortress is, it will be an isolated city and a dead city.

But the problem is, no matter whether it is the most advanced detector or the experienced spiritual navigator, they have found nothing.

King Solei was also a little surprised, but he was not particularly surprised, but fell into deep thought.

At the beginning, when our own scouting fleet found the enemy, they also prepared to escape, but they failed, so they could only transmit the signal of encountering the enemy at the last moment.If every former enemy reconnaissance ship had not been bound to pieces on the "God of War Chessboard", it might have taken a month for the headquarters to receive the news that they were sunk.
