Him and their stars

The Zhaoye Jade Lion, whose entire body was painted pitch black and was completely non-reflective, could not even be reflected by the bright ion beam, was like a petrel hitting the water in the middle of the stream, and it just escaped from the dense beam interception net. Jump out.

This jet-black fighter jet, with a pace that it didn't recognize, suddenly passed by at an ultra-low altitude only twenty or thirty meters away from the silver arc mirror. Immediately afterwards, two proton torpedoes shrouded in rays of light left the fighter's magazine and pounced towards the heat exhaust port, which was so narrow that it was almost invisible. Then, like mice that had crawled into a cave, they instantly disappeared. No sound or shadow.

"Wow hahaha, this is the bombing of victory! Although I can't get in, my cannonballs can!" Although it has not yet been proven that the attack has been successful, the leader of Gong Ao Palace has already taken the lead in issuing an enthusiastic shout. Laughing, and then the fighter plane pulling his own began to rise.

Behind him, two enemy planes with a strange shape that looked like a sphere with two battery panels hung on them were chasing after them. They were pouring energy cannonballs wildly, but they were all avoided by the black fighter planes with their coquettish movements.

However, it must be admitted that although this spherical fighter has a strange shape, its performance is quite excellent. The absolute speed is not very fast, but the maneuverability is quite good, and the firepower is extremely fierce.

Even with Gong Ao's driving skills, if this tail-biting pursuit continues for a few more minutes, it may be unavoidable.

Fortunately, this dangerous situation did not last long. Ten seconds later, the strange circular fighter plane was immediately intercepted by the White Devil fighter plane that arrived from behind it. This new type of fighter jet from Earth has unfolded its light wings, circled to the rear of the enemy aircraft at a high speed beyond common sense, and fired short-range missiles.

The fighter planes in Snake Lair were torn apart in the air. Gong Ao had just breathed a sigh of relief and was about to express his gratitude to the pilot on Earth. Then he saw a scene that made him ecstatic.

The fire ignited from under the mirror, as if a volcano had been suddenly triggered. Immediately afterwards, the fiery shock wave would completely tear apart the silver-white mirror armor of the snake cave from the inside to the outside, and then turned into continuous explosions.

The point defense turret suspended on the mirror was quickly involved in the explosion. The fragments of the mirror blocked the turret's firing range, and the fluid metal layer that lost its magnetic field attachment began to overflow, and the support of the turret was also removed.

At this moment, the already sparse anti-aircraft firepower suddenly seemed even more sparse.

Even the positron main cannon and mass accelerator, which had been shooting at the Fuxi for more than ten minutes, were surrounded by fire. The main body of the gun immediately went silent.

"Oh ho ho ho! No one can stop the anger of a free people in the starry sky! Cults that destroy the industry ecology will have to accept the punishment of the Wings of Freedom!" Gong Ao laughed wildly, obviously thinking of himself The evil fire that had been suppressed for a long time was vented out.

Obviously, his subordinates also had the same idea.

"Go and eat XX, crawling things! You only deserve to eat XX!"

"This is the pirate XXX from the Spiral Nebula who lost your XXX! Are you happy?"

Vulgar words like this echoed in the communication frequency.

They had to vent like this, especially after learning that of the more than 400 pirate fighter planes that attacked this time, only half survived, and there were even a few leaders among them.

"...Hey, everyone has already tied their heads to their waists when they come out to hang out in the world. Do you still expect to have a happy ending in this life? After this battle, at least we will leave a positive image in history. We are already What an unexpected harvest." The mature and prudent Third Master comforted everyone.

The second leader asked: "What happens next? Big boss, what should we do next?"

"Of course it's time to return home and recuperate. It's time to drink and sleep. We have done our best, and what's behind belongs to the master." Gong Ao said.

As a result, the pirate fleet, which had lost half of its manpower, sailed towards its own mothership and once again passed by the Community fleet. However, this time it was not the Fuxi, but dozens of assault landing craft.

The leading assault landing craft even sent a light signal expressing blessings and thanks.

Gong Ao had to admit that compared to the masters of the Alliance and the Empire, the army on the Earth's side was still more humane. Of course, this may also have something to do with the chief officer's style.

At this time, he also received a communication request, but it was sent from the Fuxi.

Now, the pirate fleet has left the line of fire and is in a safe position. Gong Ao handed over the fighter plane to the terminal for custody, connected the communication, and then saw the smiling Yu Lian.

"Thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty." The young general smiled.

"Cousin, it is my duty to restore the glory of our earth warriors! I fought bloody battles and left at least three liters of blood, but I was lucky enough to live up to my fate!" The Pirate King wiped away the tears that did not exist, and there was even more in his tone. A bit solemn.

Yu Lian suddenly got goosebumps again, but considering that he was a hero after all, it was not easy to pour cold water on him, so he smiled again and said: "Anyway, I want good news here. Just now King Wei Lunte from the empire sent me a letter , saying that all the pilots of the Shibao Ship Group who participated in the war will be awarded medals, and the brothers who died in the battle will be given pensions out of their own pockets according to the standards of imperial pilots. Oh, by the way, we are also planning to award you the title of Knight of Honor. Knights in the Empire Among the marquises, this is already the second level.”

"Jue, title? Did it happen so quickly?" Gong Ao was a little surprised. This has indeed far exceeded his expectations.

"Anyway, they are life-long nobles who cannot be hereditary. They are eligible to be awarded directly by the elected emperor without going through the Heraldry Academy. Of course, when you go to the empire now, you can be called a lord." Yu Lian said with a smile.

Gong Ao's joy flashed through, and then turned into a distressed expression: "But... little cousin, I'm not going to hide it from you, I have discussed it with my brothers, and I am still going to join your old... He took refuge in His Highness King Suliuka.”

Yu Lian decided to ignore the slip of the tongue just now: "Surviving to King Su Liu will not delay you from receiving the medal and title of King Lunt. He only has the right to bypass the Heraldry Academy and canonize imperial nobles, but it does not mean that you become his A retainer."

"But, doesn't this follow the rules of the world?"

"You have to believe that the lord you choose is a magnanimous person. You also have to believe that even King Wilente must establish a persona for himself that is open-minded and generous and respects warriors. Now that you have decided to surrender to the empire, don't I will never accept the other party's kindness in advance." Yu Lian smiled and said: "In this regard, you can definitely learn from the posture of the flying general Li Guang."

"Oh, Flying General?" Although the leader Gong Ao has no education, he has heard the name of Flying General.

"Yes, he has also received the seal and reward from King Liang Xiao, so he will continue to get lost without delay... ah no, he will continue to fight for the central government of the Han Dynasty."

"Little cousin, I understand what you mean. Only by frankly accepting King Wei's reward can I show my integrity, right?"

"That's what I mean." Yu Lian nodded.

"Besides, my brothers and I are originally pirates. Pirates should happily wag their tails when they see a reward. Only dogs that like wagging their tails will make others relax their vigilance."

"Congratulations, you can think divergently." Yu Lian nodded vigorously. However, he still told the other party in a solemn manner: "Okay, I know that you free people in the starry sky don't like having a master, but if you have to choose a master, King Suliuka is the best. chosen."

Gong Ao nodded slightly, but suddenly said: "General, our subordinates were heading towards New China yesterday."

Yu Lian said he knew. Moreover, the alliance and the community are responsible for shipping safety along the way, so safety should still be guaranteed.

"My two almost-adult sons will go to the Empire with me. After all, if there is no family around, the Empire will always have doubts. But the other children will go to New China. When they grow up, will there be a master? "

Yu Lian really didn't expect that the other party would ask such a question. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, "Don't wait."

"Hahahaha, I know that this is a big social issue, and we can't just talk about it here." The leader of the palace laughed: "I just hope that even if it is the master, it must be Su A master like Wang, otherwise if our brothers split their bets, wouldn’t we be just villains in vain?”

Oh, you just said you split your bets, right? Did you place your bets separately?

At this time, Gong Ao had already made an unskilled military salute to Yu Lian: "Then, I will go back to repair. In addition to these 400 pilots, there are nearly 10,000 old brothers on the ship who can gnaw hard bones, all with power armor. . If you need it, you can just say hello at any time, and I can come with you. I’m not bragging, playing with fighter jets is just my hobby, but carrying a knife to kill people is a professional skill I’ve had since I was a child."

"I won't be polite if necessary." Yu Lian smiled.

By the time the pirates' scarred fighter jets returned to their mothership, Yu Lian also received battle reports from everywhere.

In fact, the Empire had already completed the landing before Brigadier Zuo Wanhu and his troops set sail in landing craft. After paying the price of six battleships being sunk and more than ten battleships being injured, they finally threw an entire division of stormtroopers into the opponent's outer armor.

However, even though these warriors flying hang gliders and wearing space mechas boarded the mirror armor on the surface of the snake lair, they could not find an entrance to break into the period. Instead, they fought with the homeless people who came out. Fight hard.

In just five minutes, the empire had already suffered more than 2,000 casualties.

Looking at this unintentional act and this casualty rate, you know that this division must be a line-filling cannon fodder division composed of non-humans and slave soldiers. Just look at the four-digit number and you will know that it is indeed the case.

Well... according to the values ​​of the empire, the second-class stormtroopers composed of non-human and non-citizens and the slave soldiers provided by slave owners cannot be counted as casualties. Then, it would not be a fool's errand to let them log in in advance to test the opponent's defense measures.

The alliance on the other side seems to be more particular about things than the empire. According to Miss Beida, the alliance also dispatched two Marine Divisions, eight Administration Inspectors, and four guerrillas this time. However, the first ones to land on the shell of the snake cave were actually mercenaries.

...Well, the casualties of the mercenaries are not actually casualties, and they don't even make the news. Yu Lian estimated that the alliance government and the mercenaries must have signed a mission contracting system. As long as this battle is fought, no matter how many people die, the price will be the same.

At this time, the chain explosion caused by the two torpedoes fired by the leader Gong Da finally came to a calm stage. However, it was like a volcano that stopped erupting, which would bring about subversive changes in the topography of the surrounding environment, and a huge gap was formed on the surface of the snake cave. The fighter planes still loitering near the snake's den passed overhead and sent back a rather wide internal space on the spot.

This should be the drone hangar that Gong Ao mentioned, and it is indeed a very good place for the army to land.

The two assault landing craft just opened their shields and disintegration drills, and smashed into the hangar floor. What rushed out of the open hatch was not a Marine with a loaded gun, but an eight-clawed robot holding a shield and a Vulcan cannon. They jumped onto the wide hangar with a clang, and then were torn into pieces by the intensive firepower.

Well, if the first batch of people to land are marines, even if they are wearing full armor, they will inevitably be bloody.

In this way, compared with the Alliance Empire next to it, it is already very humane for the Earth's side to allow the special battalion commanding combat omnics to land first and lead the charge.

The first batch of robots that jumped out of the cabin were naturally torn apart, but soon, the second batch of robots propped up shields under the cover of the wreckage of their companions and began to fight back in the direction of the source of the enemy fire.

Chief of Staff Mkawa has been worried about whether his omnics will be hacked by the World Serpent after landing. After all, this is a top terrorist with a long history. It even has a mobile fortress like Snake Lair that can jump and cruise at sub-light speed. At first glance, it seems that it has mastered black technology that exceeds common sense.

However, when these "Blue Light Intellectual Machines" that were imitations of Gray Mist on his side were intercepted by intensive firepower immediately after landing, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Aren't they just firing at each other? It’s not like I’ve never seen it before. As long as it does not go beyond the conventional combat methods he understands, it will not be out of control.

It was obvious that the two torpedoes that Leader Gong had just fired through the heat exhaust vent not only tore open the armor of the fortress, but also caused considerable damage to the defenders in this area. After less than three minutes of fire suppression and counter-suppression, Earth's blue-light robots gained the upper hand and began to push the battle line forward.

Subsequently, the Marines also began to land one after another. This reinforced brigade from the 1st Huben Division began to assume the role of heavy firepower points and communication stations. A simple steel plate trestle was even built on the gap in the fortress, probably to increase the efficiency of backup.

By the time Colonel Walter arrived at the battlefield with psykers and heraldic aircraft, the Community army had landed nearly two thousand people on the fortress, and the casualties had just reached three digits.

Well, compared to the opposite empire and alliance, the community is not only humane, but also has really gratifying results!

However, Yu Lian had not been complacent for long before he received another message from the Qingqiu.

"Everything goes well on our side. If your country is interested, we can also give you some beachhead." Yu Lian said with a smile.

"Thank you very much. I have already sent a brigade of the 6th Division over. Of course, the command belongs directly to you." Yani said with a smile: "However, something happened with the empire."

"Something happened? That fill-in line...well, the 1233rd Division was completely wiped out?"

"Eighty percent of the combatants have been lost, so we have no choice but to retreat. However, they finally rushed into the fortress." Princess Rainbow Rose showed a sad expression: "However, the two teams of astral knights who entered the fortress were It’s really all wiped out.”
