Interstellar End Times: I Take Players to Dismantle Spaceships

Chapter 397 Atrocity
"Your Excellency, the person in charge of Holy Shield Defense stated that they are a neutral private company and will not participate in the war between the Federation and us. We hope that we can let them leave."

After listening to the report from his men, Bishop Erwin suddenly sneered.

"It's a joke. Your Majesty is declaring war on the entire Federation. Don't these Holy Shield mercenaries have federal citizenship? Let's attack them first! Let those Barrat scum realize the reality."

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Following Erwin's order, the huge Imperial task force immediately changed.

One by one, the behemoths turned their hulls and aimed their broadsides at the Holy Shield Defense Fleet in the distance. These federal mercenaries were frightened to death. Threats and even calls for mercy were constantly heard on the channel.

There is no way around it. Although Aegis Defense has extensive business in the Barat star system, most of its ships are escorting outside. There is only one reorganized fleet assembled in the Barat star system, and the ships are all eliminated by the federal navy.

On the other hand, the Imperial fleet, which has a strong military and all advanced main force, is not at the same level.

What should I do? The Imperials are trying to use their holy shield to show off their power!
The person in charge of Holy Shield Defense, Lieutenant General Jord, looked ferocious as he quickly thought of countermeasures.

Finally, he yelled.

"Quickly, break the fleet into the atmosphere of Barat Star!"

He decided to divert the disaster eastward.

This is a rather vicious approach. He wants to coerce the Bharat government forces and let them share the firepower of the Holy Shield Defense Fleet.

Although the Imperial's turbolasers will be weakened by the atmosphere, with the terrifying energy level of the Imperial fleet, Rahul must intercept it as long as he still wants this planet.

As for whether Rahul still has a trump card, Jolde firmly believes that he must have it.

As the largest warlord in the Bharat sector, how could it be possible that he only had one fleet on the surface? Everyone thought so.

It's just that before, all the forces used this trump card as their imaginary enemy, but now, they regard it as a life-saving straw.

Erwin ordered the fire, and then watched indifferently as these despicable Federation people broke into the planet Barat despite the gunfire, and did not pursue it.

He also wanted to see what Rahul's trump card was.

As half an hour gradually approached, more and more local warlords made their choices, but surprisingly, no one surrendered, taking Erwin's order as a fart.

backbone?

A little bit, but not much.

Mainly among the warlords present, who didn't make a fortune through piracy?They simply don't have to be very skilled in this method of first making their prey surrender and then killing them to silence them.

As soon as Erwin stuck out his butt, they knew what the other was going to fart.

So I don’t believe the imperial dog’s nonsense at all.

Although they had been in a mess for half an hour, they had managed to unite their thoughts: in the face of a powerful enemy, the conflicts within the family should be put aside first, and the outside bandits should be driven away first!
As a result, all the warships that could still move at the scene retreated towards the planet Barat and hid in the atmosphere.

Erwin looked at this scene, not only did he not stop him, but he even smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"This really saves me a lot of trouble."

His expression instantly turned cold, he raised his hand and waved it hard, speaking loudly.

"Execute level 2 orbital bombing!"

Turbolaser weak orbital bombardment?
Those are all old almanacs!

This time he came with the dreadnought, which also has a nickname - Star Destroyer!

Although it is only a quasi-Star Destroyer and Titan is the real Star Destroyer, the three Imperial Dreadnoughts and eight Renaissance-class ships are equipped with hundreds of new heavy cannons, which are enough to penetrate the atmosphere and easily kill the Barra hiding inside. The special fleet was torn apart.

Soon, three dreadnoughts and eight Renaissance-class quasi-dreadnoughts emerged, with huge gun barrels protruding from their bellies. These heavy guns were more than 10 times larger than common turbolaser cannons, and they looked extremely powerful.

The muzzles of these cannons, which were enough to fit into a TIE Fighter, quickly burst into red light, and then burst out one after another, compressed energy clusters flashing with red lightning.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, the Imperials opened fire on us!"

In the dim command room, Rahul looked gloomy and asked in a tone with obvious annoyance.

"Isn't my Celestial God ready yet?!"

After all, a week ago, he was already asking people to start the Tianshen's attack procedure. However, he said it quickly at the time, and it is not ready until now!

Rahul wished he could pull out the dead engineers and kill them, but then the Goddess would be unable to leave the port...

In fact, you can't blame your subordinates.

After all, with the technical difficulty of the Devas, it is really difficult for these self-taught Bharat engineers to let a bunch of tractor repairmen build tanks. Isn’t this nonsense?

Moreover, everyone still uses "Bharat time" for work and delivery.

The "very soon" in "Bharat time", as the boss of the Bharat people, don't you have some ideas in mind?
It's only been a week.

The current progress has far exceeded any previous time, and there hasn't been any big trouble yet, so it's already a super level performance.

Rahul also knew the situation in his family, so he scolded him, and finally admitted it with his nose pinched.

He turned and spoke.

"Activate those star-casting ruins and use planetary shields to hold on for a while longer! Tell those losers that if they don't succeed, they will be buried with the planet Barat!"

"Okay, okay! Professor Kamala promises, it will be fine right away!"

The men kept wiping the sweat from their temples.

Soon, a loud sound of earth shaking and mountain shaking came from the underground of Bharat Star. Large areas of slums collapsed, and old star-casting buildings rose up from the underground one after another.

These are the defense facilities built by the Star Casters on the planet Gaia back then. Some can deploy planetary shields in space, and some are land-based forts.

Unfortunately, not many of these facilities are intact.

Therefore, the area of ​​​​the shield that can be deployed is also very limited, mainly over major cities and major military bases.

In fact, the sites of these important landmarks are located around these ruins.

Pieces of regular hexagonal force fields were quickly spliced ​​together, holding up protective umbrellas for the sky of Bharat Star.

However, the area these umbrellas can cover is very limited.

Combined with the mottled surface background, it looks like it has been hammered from space. The display screen is constantly malfunctioning and flashing. Those flashing spots are the planetary shield that is still in operation.

But no matter what, the planetary shield left by the Star Casters is still very useful.

These 500-year-old defense systems had an immediate effect, blocking most of the energy balls falling from the sky.

Those that were not blocked fell to the ground and directly overturned hundreds of kilometers of soil, creating a terrifying power that far exceeded that of a nuclear explosion.

It is conceivable that if the Imperials bombed them so recklessly, they might really be able to blow up the entire planet!

"Oh, is this your trump card?"

Bishop Erwin was not surprised by this. If Rahul, the biggest local snake, didn't have a few decent trump cards, wouldn't their empire have been fighting against the air over the years?

"Continue bombing." Erwin sneered, and the fear hidden in his heart was suddenly eliminated.

What he fears most is that the Bharat people hold sharp blades instead of strong shields. The sharp blades will bring casualties to the empire, and no matter how strong the shield is, it will be broken sooner or later.

The space storm covering the Capital Galaxy will last for a month.

The supplies carried by the infiltration fleet are very sufficient. For this reason, the aircraft carriers in the infiltration fleet have been temporarily transformed into supply ships, just to keep pace with the main fleet during the jump.

So Erwin had enough patience and strength to crack open the turtle shell of the Barat people.

What's more, this turtle shell is leaking air from all sides.

Soon, the second round of attacks fell from the sky. The planetary shield left by the Star Casters was still as stable as a mountain, but the Barat people inside the ruins were worried.

"Damn it, the Imperial Dog's attack is too strong, and the main shield strength has dropped by another 3.7%!"

"What! When we tested it ourselves before, we obviously couldn't even defeat 1% every time?"

The imperial attack almost frightened the Bharat people, but soon a general stood up and shouted:

"Everyone wake up! That's three dreadnoughts and eight quasi-dreadnoughts! This is a normal intensity of firepower!"

Although they can't match this intensity of firepower themselves.

"But we are not afraid of them!"

The general of the defense base spoke loudly again and said comfortingly:
"They are a fleet after all, with limited supplies, their weapons will overheat, and their energy will run out! And we are backed by the entire planet Balat, our energy comes from the mantle, and our supplies are very sufficient! I guarantee that the Imperial Dogs are breaking through our Before we can defend ourselves, we are already exhausted! Then it’s time for us to fight back!”

The soldiers present regained their sanity, and then shouted fanatically.

"Yes, sir!"

"Long live Bharat! Bharat will win!"

"Fuck the Imperial Dog!"

On the other side, aboard Erwin's flagship, the Hidden One, Erwin received a report from his subordinates.

"Your Excellency, ten rounds of bombing have been completed and the target shield has not been destroyed yet.

"According to analysis, the enemy deployed 33 defense units in the S-class planetary shield system produced by Cast Star Heavy Industry.

"If there is sufficient energy, considering the heat dissipation and maintenance of the weapons, we may need to carry out a siege that lasts for half a month; or, we may need to concentrate the main guns of three dreadnought ships at the same time for more than 30 seconds of irradiation, and use all the main guns to At the cost of temporary paralysis, we can hope to defeat it in one fell swoop.”

Erwin knocked on the armrest of the command chair and spoke calmly.

"It turns out to be S-class...Did the General Staff's analysis import the internal variables of the Bharat people themselves?"

The adjutant's face changed slightly, and he lowered his head and answered:
"No, the imported Bharat Army is based on our empire's soldiers. There may be a certain degree of...overestimation."

Erwin waved his hand casually.

Although his staff did overestimate the Barat people, during the siege, those Baraat engineers might blow up the ruins of the Casting Star themselves, and those ruins might also be breached by internal traitors or rebels...

But these are only possibilities.

The powerful Imperial Army will not pin its hopes of victory on the enemy's mistakes.

and so……

"Adopt a siege plan. The risk of three flagships losing their main guns at the same time is too high. We just have one moment to deal with the mess.

"In this way, low-intensity orbital bombing will go first, marking all areas not protected by the shield as bombing zones, driving all the civilians and thugs there under the shield, and letting them solve the population problem internally.

"Haha, wait until they are done struggling, then send the stormtroopers down to attack the Star Casting Ruins from the ground, and the fleet will cover them simultaneously."

The adjutant's eyes lit up and he quickly nodded in agreement.

"As you wish, Your Excellency."

The bishop's move to drive away wolves and tigers was really clever. He took advantage of the unquenched riots and made the Bharat army on the ground exhausted and fighting among themselves.

Judging from the organizational strength, adaptability, and pressure resistance of the Bharat people in the past, this is definitely a disaster!
Maybe they will collapse themselves first.

Soon, the imperial fleet's bombing strategy changed from the previous hard-on frontal attack to low-yield bombing around the shield.

At the same time, broadcasts threatening the relocation of Balat civilians began to spread, along with "military assistance" from the imperial fleet that was dropped from orbit!
The most common ones are cheap E-4 blasters and - individual nuclear missiles!

Who says that nuclear bombs are only a patent of the Federation? The Imperials can also use them, but they are not usually used because they can be easily intercepted by deflector shields, electromagnetic interference, or tractor beams.

But for the thugs in Bharat, this is definitely a useful weapon and a weapon that is enough to pose a threat to government forces.

Although there is a high probability of blowing yourself up, it is not a big problem.

Soon, the level of violence on the surface of Planet Balat increased again. Looking from space, tiny flowers of death began to bloom on the yellow, green and black earth.

The warlords of all parties in Bharat were filled with jealousy and hated the imperial people.

But if they really want to leave the shield protection, send the fleet out to suppress the rebellion, and intercept the weapons boxes dropped by the Imperials, then forget it, their own lives are still at stake.

Therefore, all the Bharat Coalition could do, apart from yelling in the air, was to use its limited land-based defense forts to fire at the imperial fleet in space.

Time flies.

That night, a huge fireball fell from the sky and hit the shield above the capital, causing a huge explosion.

That's the fallen Balat Starport!

After the big explosion, outside the city without shield protection, there was a scorched earth, with no grass growing, and countless civilians turned into fly ash, which can be called a purgatory on earth.

But even so, the combined fleet hiding inside remained indifferent.

If you are patient and achieve great things, how can you do it without forbearing?
A group of Bharat warlords comforted themselves in this way, but what they received in return was the contempt of the imperial army and even more unscrupulous massacres.

Another week passed in the blink of an eye.

After a week of expulsion and migration, the rebel wave planned by Erwin finally formed, and then held high the banner of justice, demanding a crusade against the Balat government that ignored the life and death of the people, and demanding that the protective shield be opened to allow refugees to take refuge.

Undoubtedly, this dangerous request was summarily rejected.

A large-scale ground war broke out.

Erwin, the culprit who caused all this, looked at this scene with satisfaction and called it a sacrifice "to His Majesty the Great Emperor".

The surrounding Judgment Knights looked fanatical.

At the same time, on Chu Hang's side, the navigation data of the Holy Shield-class battleship was finally analyzed.

The final coordinates of Galactus have been confirmed!
