Him and their stars

Chapter 1694 Is this still in the plan?

This tactical move is indeed quite confusing. It was as if when the two armies were facing each other in full battle array, the commander of one side suddenly broke away from the army and suddenly ran towards his side alone, and even sped up his horse and left all the guards to cover him, as if he didn't care at all about the thousands of strong bows and crossbows pointing at him.

...Well, the Titan can be regarded as a heroic unit, and there will always be people who want to test their quality.

The other party's information began to flash through Yu Lian's mind. The newly enthroned King of Soren, Yount IV, was just 20 years old this year and a three-ring psychic. He had not yet completed his studies at the Royal Space Fleet Military Academy, and he was only a junior at the University of Wisdom. He had only completed the initial combat training of the Knights. This was the entire educational background of this young elector.

However, in Yu Lian's memory of his previous life, there was no King of Soren, Yount IV, but only Grand Duke Ferka, Minister of the Privy Council, and His Royal Highness Marshal Yount.

In that timeline, the Galactic Empire took the initiative to attack with the strategic advantage brought by the Colossus. In addition to conquering and dismembering the community, it also completely completed the nationalization of half of the Femo star field. Then, five border lords were enthroned here, and Grand Duke Youent was the only one born in the royal family, but he was also the one with the greatest achievements.

After all, as a newly promoted empire prince and border lord, he can still get into the Privy Council, and he must have both construction and military exploits. Speaking of which, when Yu Lian was about to leave his homeland for the New World adventure, he vaguely heard that an interstellar trade city was built in the Femo Nebula, and its main promoter was Grand Duke Youent.

In short, although he has not dealt with him much, he must be a type of both civil and military. Although he is still young now, it does not mean that he is really a pink rookie.

You know, the King Suliuka on the opposite side was only 12 years old when he won the War God Festival, 22 years old when he defeated the main force of the raiders in the Lion's Den Battle, and less than 24 years old when he completed the Miracle Ring Battle in one hour and 22 minutes.

Finally, when he annihilated the main force of the nobles' alliance and ascended to the throne in the Luyuan Galaxy, he was only... uh, sorry for the interruption.

In short, it's still the same sentence, the dragon kings of the Galactic Empire are full of geniuses and lunatics, and those geniuses are often very precocious.

Yu Lian continued to work hard to dig out the fragments of his memory from his previous life... Then again, Grand Duke Youent is also a very good psychic. He is good at using two golden magic guns on the battlefield, and he is invincible wherever he goes. There is also a miraculous record of shooting a fantasy beast with one shot from 800 miles away.

In other words, he is a long-range one! Yu Lian felt that he should understand something again.

Anyway, isn't what I am best at "training" future talents who have not yet grown up? As soon as he thought of this, Yu Lian suddenly became alert.

At this time, he heard the other party's report again: "The enemy Titan Xiaolong is still moving forward. The whole ship has increased to the charge speed! At the current speed, there is still one minute to enter the effective range of the main gun. Now start the countdown..."

Yu Lian directly ordered: "Don't wait for my order, fire immediately after the countdown reaches 20 seconds!"

"The hit rate can only be guaranteed to be around 10%." Feifei, who served as the adjutant, immediately answered.

This Fortress No. 1 main gun, which has been fully charged, is the Judgment Thunder MK12 type positron main gun produced by the Alliance Thor Heavy Industry. It is powerful and has a scattering effect. The maximum range is also more than 1 million kilometers. Even if it is a Titan ship, if it is directly hit, the shield will instantly return to zero, and the solid duplex multi-layer armor will definitely be melted through.

However, we all know that the effective range and the maximum theoretical range are different after all. The farther the distance between each other, the lower the hit rate, which is a very intuitive feeling.

In fact, even if it is only 10%, it is all terminal auxiliary simulation and the demerit of top gunner bonus.

"Should we seize the opportunity to hit the first effective shot?" Feifei asked.

"No need. It's not like we are queuing up for execution. I admit that I am gambling, but the other side is the same." Yu Lian said.

"I understand." Feifei nodded to show that she understood, but then asked: "The entire fleet is ready to go. If you want to board the ship, you have to leave now."

Yu Lian paused for less than two seconds: "No need. Inform Major General Tovey to continue to stand by and wait for follow-up orders. In addition, let the Red Ghost Squadron prepare for battle!"

"Carry a bombing suit?"

"No, a standard suit."

"Understood."

As for Admiral Sylvester, he was still nervously adjusting his bow tie, but when he heard Yu Lian's words, he seemed to understand something and his breathing suddenly calmed down.

At this time, a table showing the status of the main guns popped up on the screen next to him, which had changed from white to orange and then quickly turned to red. This means that this powerful positron main gun is ready to roar at any time.

In addition, the two Dragon Breath MK4 Gaussian orbital main guns have also completed the final charging.

The gunnery officer was originally preparing to send the armor-piercing warhead into the gun bay, which was of course prepared for further armor penetration after the enemy ship's shield was zeroed, in line with standard combat procedures. But then, they received the latest order from the headquarters, requiring them to switch to high-explosive antimatter shells and add timed fuses.

Although the gunners didn't quite understand, they followed suit.

Half a minute passed quickly, and the enemy Titan was still carrying out tactical maneuvers that were better than nothing, while continuing to approach the enemy. The gunner of the positron main gun pressed the launch button according to the previous instructions.

The commanders of both sides did not give the command "fire" in a ceremonial and powerful voice. The scarlet beam of light, wrapped in the beating magnetic force, fiercely pounced on the overall cylindrical Titan, the Xiaolong.

However, almost at the moment when the scarlet light began to flash on the muzzle of the fortress, the Titan suddenly changed its appearance, like a huge truck that made a sharp turn and then drifted along the drainage ditch.

At the same time, the terminal of the fortress command center was completely filled with noisy noises: "High-energy response ahead! High-energy response ahead! The enemy Titan opened fire!"

"The first shelling on April 1 was closer than the last time." Yu Lian said.

"This is not the first time."

The dark blue beam with a charming purple hue, like an oversized atomic light spear, directly protruded from the front of the Xiaolong and shot towards the outer wall of the Saide Fortress.

When the light had extended to a length of hundreds of kilometers, it still looked like a solid substance. However, in just two seconds, the long blade of light crossed a distance of 600,000 kilometers and fiercely stabbed the wall of the Community Fortress.

The force field shield began to neutralize, but after the strong vibration, a considerable part of the energy still penetrated into the energy barrier and acted on the outer wall.

This layer of energy did not break through the three layers of armor composed of mirror-treated super-hard alloy, high-carbon crystals, and ceramic fibers. It only smeared a layer of fire on the surface of the fortress.

Then, it caused a small explosion.

For the huge fortress body, this explosion was not even a sore. The noise and vibration generated were almost inaudible. When it reached the headquarters, it was estimated that except for Yu Lian and Feifei, no one present could even feel the basic touch. However, the important officials present still stood up one after another.

Admiral Sylvester shouted: "Report the loss immediately!"

In less than half a minute, he received a report from the damage control department: "The outer wall of U27 was damaged, and one floating turret was damaged. 12 soldiers lost contact. The engineering troops wearing space operation armor have entered the U27 area."

This loss is not painful at all for the fortress with 300,000 garrison personnel, but the signal it brings is very dangerous.

The enemy launched an artillery attack almost close to the effective range of the fortress gun, but it hit directly. This either means that the main gun installed on the enemy ship has power and range comparable to the fortress gun; or it means that the Empire has mastered some more advanced aiming methods.

Of course, this is also very likely luck.

However, no matter which one it was, it was enough to frighten the senior generals.

Compared with the deterrent bombardment that was more like venting and showing off when the Xiaolong first appeared, the threat caused by this attack was already real.

So, what if the enemy ship gets closer to the fortress under the cover of the army next time?

"Where are the enemy ships?" Yu Lian's tone still sounded quite terrifying.

The observer raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath, and continued to report: "Enemy ships... The outer wall of the enemy ships caught fire, and they were also hit by the main gun."

It's not a hit, at most it's a scratch. Yu Lian thought, but after all, it was scratched by the fortress gun, and the force field shield on one side must have been deprived, and at least one fan of armor also suffered almost devastating damage.

Yu Lian nodded to Feifei, and the latter immediately understood.

But three or five seconds later, the two Gauss rail guns also roared for the first time in this battle.

This time, the enemy ship that was hit and caught fire had already started a refined tactical maneuver, floating sideways from the original point of the universe as if it had changed its position. However, the orbital shells filled with antimatter warheads had exploded on the spot around the hull, forming a huge shock wave.

The huge hull was obviously hit even harder, and it swayed like a willow leaf in a gust of wind.

Sylvester was slightly startled, and quickly looked at Yu Lian, as if looking at God: "Isn't this also in your..."

"Of course this can't be in my calculation, it's just luck. I just said it seriously, I have a lot of gambling elements." Yu Lian said so.

"... In other words, it won't be so easy to hit next time?" The admiral said in surprise.

"It doesn't matter. They don't know either." Yu Lian smiled.

"..." The old senior seemed to be speechless for a while because his heart was beating too much. Yu Lian smiled and said, "At least we have guessed what the enemy fleet will do if it launches a full-scale attack next time. By then, we will know how to respond with the fleet."

Admiral Sylvester's expression eased a little: "I see, it's a trick to counter the enemy's trick! What a gorgeous battle of wits!"

If Yu Lian didn't know that the senior was the type who liked to provide emotional value, or even excessive emotional value, he might have thought he was being sarcastic.

"Do we have a way to counter the Empire's general attack now?" He asked again with expectation.

Well, people who like to provide emotional value too much may sometimes be too naive. However, he is the highest commander in this war zone after all, so Yu Lian certainly can't pour cold water on him, so he gestured to the general with his fist with the infinite glove: "When that time comes, for the sake of the community, I will use this dimensional fist on them."

The old senior can't see the transparent infinite gloves, and naturally doesn't understand how sharp this dimensional fist is, but he still feels very reliable and relieved.

When he realized that Yu Lian didn't answer his question directly, he didn't want to continue to entangle.

Then, the subsequent development was of course as calm as Yu Lian's expression: the Xiaolong, whose port side was still burning and a piece of armor plate was obviously torn, did not continue to move forward and fire, but made a 180-degree turn without hesitation and left the battlefield in a swagger.

If the Xiaolong Titan that rushed towards the fortress just now was a charging rhino with its head held high, now it seems to have become a turkey with its tail on fire.

Yu Lian felt that this scene had a surrealistic absurd aesthetic style. After a few seconds of silence, he laughed frankly.

Although the other important members of the command center did not laugh immediately, they should have been affected by Yu Lian's laughter, and the atmosphere on the scene suddenly became happy and relaxed.

The other warships and various sub-fortresses also symbolically fought for ten to twenty minutes, but they only dismantled a few automatic turrets, so they fled one after another.

Of course, if the Earth Fleet launched a pursuit at this time, it might be able to get a little advantage. However, considering that the Imperial Fleet, which was showing off its support, also came over, it was more likely to turn into a bad battle. And the worse the bad battle without technical content, the more important the advantage of manpower will become.

Yu Lian's fleet, now understands the essence of war with safety first, and has no complaints about the commander's order to "keep the troops in place".

Of course, a group of torpedo ships and fighters with light wings deployed also launched a tentative attack.

However, the aircraft carriers that were guarding the rear of the Titans and the Dreadnoughts had already been on full alert, and a large number of fighters quickly came up... So to speak, after the appearance of the space bubble and the light wing weapons, one of the changes to the fleet battlefield was also reflected here. The aircraft carriers had to start covering the Dreadnoughts and Titans and even cover their rear. This was really a reversal of heaven and earth.

Probably because the Imperial fighters had already set up their positions in advance, the torpedo ships paused very wisely. However, those new community warships deployed their light wing equipment, and at first glance, they looked like dragonflies composed of halos, and accelerated to pounce on the Imperial Army's formation.

This short fighter stranglehold battle of only 20 minutes ended with the Imperial fleet suffering heavy losses and being breached. Among them, a few community fighters even broke through the interception network and successfully completed the attack on the rear of the Imperial fleet.

As a result, an aircraft carrier was seriously injured, and a light cruiser and two destroyers were destroyed. In this mighty decisive battle, this loss does not even constitute a frontline conflict, but considering that they all died at the hands of individual fighters, it is still very imaginative.

This battle should be the first battle of the "Red Ghost" fighter that the Empire later heard of.

Of course, this may also be the most tragic battle in this tentative offensive - but it is not surprising when you think about it carefully. Since the Empire and the Community have been confronting each other across the Sai De Fortress, the biggest combat losses of both sides have been caused by the stranglehold of individual fighters.

If future military historians examine the first half of the Sai De Battle, they will definitely find it very unbelievable. The death rate of Jin Gui's pilots is far higher than that of the Marine Corps cannon fodder. Such a battlefield situation is indeed very rare.

After paying 43 Cobalt Fighters and 30 Purple Lightning Dragons, the Imperial Army finally drove away the two battalions of Community Red Ghost fighters. At the same time, the victory communication from Fortress No. 8 has also been sent.

Miss Bai Ziqi, codenamed "Tia", appeared on the screen. She had obviously finished her work for a while, and even had time to take a shower. Her face was flushed after the intense exercise. Her long hair was simply tied into a ponytail at the back of her head, and she had a controlled smile on her lips.

"The one with black armor is the legendary Four Heavenly Kings? Haha, he is very famous, but his ability..."

"Not very good?" Feifei asked with a smile.

"My ability is still good. If it is really a life-and-death duel without any external influence, my winning rate will not exceed 30%." Taia replied quickly.
