Him and their stars

Yu Lian knew that these warships were actually the famous "Ode" class arsenal ships. It is said to be an arsenal ship, but in fact the size and quality are close to that of a slightly smaller battle cruiser. It adopts a very extreme design, with unsatisfactory speed, endurance, and protection, and is very prone to failure. It is of the type that requires half a year of maintenance and half a year of service. However, she is equipped with a huge fortress cannon.

This kind of ship doesn't even have a secondary gun or an anti-aircraft gun, but it is equipped with such a powerful fortress main gun.

It is said that some designers in the alliance military feel that there are still some problems with this configuration. Some secondary guns should be installed, otherwise they will always feel insecure. However, some smart people at a higher level said that it was originally an extreme design and could not even survive without the protection of the attached ships. What sense of security could there be if it were left here? It is better to strengthen the advantages to the extreme.

In short, every gram of mass of the "Ode"-class arsenal ship is prepared for the powerful fortress gun.

It is conceivable that if such a ship is left alone, it may be difficult to survive even if it encounters an armed merchant ship. However, it can still have miraculous effects in fleet battles or fortress assaults.

Now, the Tribute class has been in service for ten years. It is said that it was specially designed by the Alliance to deal with the Sky Fortresses of the Empire. With the mentality that I want to have what the enemy does not have, and I want to have even more what the enemy has, the empire is also working hard to design a similar type of arsenal ship, known as the "Wuwei" class, and it is said that it has already begun to equip it.

The red-red positron beams released by the twelve Praise-class large arsenal ships cut through the dark starry sky like the sword of the gods, piercing the silver-white hemisphere in the distance.

However, to carry out artillery fire at this distance, even with positron fortress cannons, it is almost impossible to guarantee the hit and power. Sure enough, the positron beam clearly spread after crossing the standard range. After it was still some distance away from the huge fortress, it completely lost its power and dissipated in the space.

Of course, Yu Lian knew that the alliance's shelling was not just for simple deterrence.

Miss Bei, who was opposite, smiled and said: "I am not a fleet commander, so I have to trust professionals."

Then, the twelve Praise-class ships were seen approaching a little closer and fired another salvo.

Speaking of which, installing fortress cannons on the hull is, after all, an anti-human design. Firing more cannons is bound to put a certain burden on the hull. This is the reason why the "Praise Class" is on duty for half a year and maintained for half a year.

"What an expensive fireworks!" Yu Lian laughed: "Are you trying to force the opponent's main gun to fire?"

Yani shrugged: "I am not a commander. But I know that no matter how many black technologies it has dug up and how many peripheral organizations it has, the Snake of the World is just a shady mysterious association after all. In terms of technical reserves, it is absolutely It may be comparable to that of a great country. No matter how powerful the fortress cannons on the Snake Lair are, they must be outdated. However, these Tribute-class ships are actually equipped with MK27 Radiant Blade-class positron main cannons. The new equipment was completed by the Future Laboratory this year. In last month’s test, the effective range could reach 0.85 astronomical units.”

"Are you actually telling them that even in terms of firepower and range, we have an absolute advantage, so we are chilling the enemy's morale?"

"No, I am a scientist after all, and I need to test new weapons in actual combat." Yani showed a bright smile: "Besides, Yu Lian, the Empire's Colossus threw several powerful rounds into the Spiral Cross Nebula. The force is gone. We have to show off a little bit."

The so-called response, shouldn't it be of the same level? Yu Lian sneered in his heart.

Yani continued to speak seriously: "The so-called Praise level, even if it is a mobile fortress cannon, its power and range will exceed all current fortress weapons."

"Including those on the Empire's Sky Castle?"

"Including those." Yani smiled and said: "That's enough. If we also use the Colossus, it will be obviously confrontational. This is actually not in line with the basic principle of three-party cooperation to fight snakes."

"The Alliance is really a peace-loving country. I really cried to death." Yu Lian pretended to wipe the tears on his cheeks.

"Oh my, the tone of the entire galaxy is about to become peaceful. If we continue to be out of tune, the world will be under great pressure." Miss Bei said as if I was carrying a heavy load.

The senior officers on the bridge of the Fuxi looked at each other. They are all smart people, so they can naturally hear the strangeness in the conversation between the two, and they always feel that this is not something they can hear without paying. Some people felt that the commander should be reminded to turn off the sound-blocking force field, but for a while they did not dare to speak.

Looking at the snake den over there. After pausing for a few seconds, it seemed to finally sense some real danger, and then began to accelerate again, continuing to drift towards the inner circle of the galaxy.

"I always feel that... it is planning to take those space cities as hostages. If he backs up those space cities, our fleet's firepower will be at a disadvantage." Yu Lian said with a smile.

"This is indeed a problem. It may also explain why Snake placed the battlefield here. However, student Yu Lian, the hostages must be truly regarded as human beings in order to be effective." Yani said calmly.

Yu Lian once again took a breath of the anxious heat in the bridge, bared his teeth and said, "So you're not going to treat them as human beings?"

"Our complex has been destroyed, so we have nothing to fear."

"...That was smashed by Colonel Kesola across the street. I'm just providing an idea. He also smashed the empire's villa area."

"Yes, so the Empire has nothing to fear. We can wait for them to come and be the bad guys."

"..."

"Okay, I'm joking." Yani laughed: "Looking at you, you must have some guesses, right?"

Yu Lian pondered for a moment and looked at the officers around him. Everyone understood that this was a confidential matter between the Commander and Princess Rainbow Rose across from him, and they all breathed a long sigh of relief and expressed their understanding.

"The situation has stabilized at present. Although I am stupid, I can temporarily take over the command." Brigadier General Tovey said.

"After the two alliance Norda-class ships arrive, can they be included in the unified formation?" Brigadier General Mkawa said.

Yu Lian nodded in approval and returned to his commander's seat. As soon as he sat down, Colonel Singer brought the coffee and ashtray over, then took a few steps back and turned on the sound-proofing field.

...Well, in a sense, this is also a talent!

Yu Lian sighed, and then said to Yani: "The snake's behavior is very abnormal."

"It is indeed abnormal. I have predicted their actions many times, but I did not expect them to come to Canchuan. This is indeed very abnormal behavior." Miss Bei said.

If you didn't guess, it's abnormal. Yu Lian chuckled in his heart: "The few shots Snake Den fired at the space cities of Planet 5 just now were a bit strange."

"Oh?" Yani couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

"The alliance's bombardment will not be without aim, so the World Snake should not be either." Yu Lian said solemnly: "Yani, with the most profound mystical operation that you know, you can derive the distance of space jump. How far?"

This seems to be too much of a leap. However, the person speaking to him was the extremely smart Princess Rainbow Rose after all. After thinking for a moment, she asked: "...you mean, the reason why the other party chose this galaxy as the battlefield was because they considered the escape route? Once things go bad, the snake heads may travel through space. How to escape to those space cities?"

"Hidden in the city. Sometimes, the best way to escape is not to build a hole and hide, but to blend into the bustling crowd. Our military operations have indeed affected the trade routes during this period. But there are still 50 billion people in this galaxy."

Yani nodded slightly: "So, is this why you asked Colonel Xora to blockade the orbiting space cities on Planet 4?"

Yu Lian shrugged: "Although this may be whimsical, maybe those shots fired by Snake Cave blasted out some space beacons or transit nodes."

"...This exceeds my understanding of occult science. If the existence of the virtual realm is not taken into account, our current limit jump is about 10 million kilometers. The occult reserve empire is slightly better than us, but in terms of space applications , the alliance is more than a little stronger. Don’t you know this?”

Yani was referring to the work that the two men did in the imperial capital, and Yu Lian had naturally seen it.

"However, in the field of occultism, all possibilities cannot be ruled out." Yani looked at the movement direction of the snake lair: "The fortress is currently 15 million kilometers away from the orbital urban area of ​​Planet 4. It is 15 million kilometers away from Planet 5. It is at 40 million kilometers, and it is still shortening..."

She finally understood: "Hahaha, I see, if the orbits are taken into account. These two planets are at the closest distance in the past few days. If snakes are really what you think, they will choose two planets. At the midpoint of the planets. In this way, all the space cities in Canchuan may be their escape routes."

"However, this requires a space jump distance of nearly 30 million kilometers and extremely precise positioning." Yu Liandao: "That's why I guessed whether the other party would use a method unknown to us to set up space nodes."

Before he finished speaking, Colonel Singer waved to himself from outside the sound-proofing force field, jumping up and down like a giant monkey. Yu Lian connected to the external communication and heard Brigadier General Tovey's report: "Your Excellency, Snake Den is bombarding Planet No. 5."

"40 million kilometers away?"

"Yes, so the ion beam dissipated halfway." The old captain added: "There are defense satellites above Planet 5, and a wide-area shield is being deployed. The current situation is stable."

"Got it, keep monitoring."

"Understood." Brigadier General Tovey added: "In addition, the 'Taotie Ship Group' of 'Grassbeard' Marshall Munch has also arrived! They are on standby near the halo of Planet 7, and there is no communication for the time being. However, their ships The main engine has been shut down, and the bow gun port and active radar are also shut down."

I haven’t made up my mind yet! But as long as you come, it’s just an attitude. In this way, all the four pirate kings of the Spiral Cross Nebula arrived, except for the unlucky guy who was shot. This is quite interesting.

After cutting off the communication, Yu Lian looked at Yani behind the window. Obviously, she must have learned the same information from her subordinates, and she suddenly showed a confident expression.

"A wise man cannot underestimate people's imagination. Whether it is the boundaries of science or the boundaries of mysterious energy, they should be infinite." Yani looked at Yu Lian up and down. In addition to admiration, there was even undisguised expression in her eyes. The affection is lingering.

"It's really admirable, student Yu Liang, you actually figured out what those snakes were doing before I did..."

"This is just some wild speculation." Yu Lian waved his hand very humbly.

The ultimate jump distance of the Sky Sacred Jade he stole from Xia Li will be extended according to his own strength. A little guesswork should be able to extend it to more than 10 million kilometers.

Moreover, in another timeline of the future, when various countries were studying the Snake Lair, they made some detailed academic reports, pointing out that some of the cannons on the Snake Lair had been alchemically modified. As for the direction of transformation, there are still different opinions. However, some of the space arrays carved on the cannons can explain some problems. Some people think that it should be to enhance the range of the weapon through the space array, but some people think that it is not that simple.

But in any case, without the above information, Yu Lian might not be able to guess this place.

"This is the Dragon of Dawn! Isn't this what it means to be mysterious and mysterious as it moves in the nine heavens?" Yani smiled sweetly and had a green face.

But Yu Lian had goosebumps when he heard it: "Are you trying to be awkward with me?"

"Shameful play? You actually like this?" Yani suddenly showed a look of astonishment, but she seemed to be a little more eager to try: "Then we have to finish this battle."

A fox is truly a fox!

Fortunately, she did not dwell on this issue for too long and sighed: "Actually, if the snake heads really want to escape, they can still choose to pass through the virtual realm. Fortunately, this is not the norm."

Yu Lian knew that even though he went to the virtual realm, he was almost back home. But in fact, that vast gray space is always an unnatural realm located in the shadow of the physical universe, which is far more dangerous than the most dangerous cosmic environment.

Even if there is a way to escape through the virtual realm with the snake head, it can only be done by the top masters. The "Present Lady" I met last time is OK, so are "Future" and "Past", but it's hard to say the level of Thirteenth, let alone the other executive officers.

However, this also shows that for top psychic masters whose methods can be called gods, the army really cannot trap them.

The Alliance and the Empire themselves have no hope of actually destroying the World Serpent, right?

At this time, Yani said again: "Tell me, if I reveal the news just now to the empire, will they just demolish the space city in Canchuan?"

"Even if the empire is a bad person, it shouldn't reach this point, right?"

"Who knows, you can give it a try anyway. They are the only ones who do bad things anyway."

Then, following Miss White-haired Fox's unabashed malicious speculation, the Imperial Fleet, whose total strength was one and a half times that of the Alliance and three times that of the Community, finally arrived at the battlefield in a mighty manner.

The leading imperial dreadnought ship "General Lovegate", covered in gorgeous golden light, descended into this galaxy like an arrogant queen. Just after its debut, it has already sent wide-area gravitational wave communications to the entire galaxy.

"In order to prevent the world from being destroyed and to maintain the peace of the universe, in the name of the sacred Galactic Empire, we urge the terrorists in the unknown fortress to surrender immediately! I repeat, put down your weapons and surrender immediately!"

At this time, it was already the sixth hour of the battle in the Canchuan Galaxy.
