Him and their stars

Yu Lian felt that it was a pity for the subtlety, but at this time, he heard Brunhild say: "Thank you, Yu Lianqing."

Thank me for what? Yu Lian showed a surprised expression.

"Thank you for teaching us the true use of space bubble torpedoes." Brynhilt smiled.

Yu Lian didn't know what kind of expression he should use for a while, so he could only try his best to squeeze out a smile.

"When this weapon was finalized, I thought it would be an epoch-making weapon that could change the world. However, the battle in the Far Shore Nebula gave me a blow. I really didn't expect that it could actually use space shock bombs. Create an isolation zone to block the movement of space torpedoes." The young King Suliuka smiled and said: "What a genius idea, Yu Lianqing."

The Battle of the Far Shore Nebula was actually a secret known only to a few high-ranking officials in the Imperial Army, and there were even many senior officers at the scene who had no idea at all. No, Major General Misaro over there showed a confused expression and put his hand on the top of his bare head and touched it.

"What happened to the Far Shore Nebula?" Yu Lian blinked and said with an innocent face: "Xia Guan worked there for a while last year, but I heard that the pirates there were a little noisy."

"Haha." Brunhilt smiled.

Therefore, Yu Lian had no choice but to say "hehe": "You don't want to launch an attack at this time, do you?"

"No, I really want to thank you." King Suliuka pondered for a moment: "Yu Lianqing, until now, I still firmly believe that anti-matter space bubble torpedoes are indeed revolutionary technical weapons. There are only useless commanders, but there are no useless weapons! That’s why I want to thank you for helping me get rid of a wrong answer.”

"Uh, Your Highness, you mean..."

"People from the Tianhuo Design Bureau and the Tiangong Institute believe that the space bubble torpedo cannot be intercepted in theory! But it is a torpedo after all. Both its maneuverability and speed are limited. If it is launched at an excessive distance, it will give the opponent a Isolation zone, time and space that neutralizes the effect of space. In this case, why not change your mind?"

"So, your strategy is..."

"Yes, if the enemy will counterattack at a long distance, what about close range?" Brynhilt smiled: "Now, I can even clearly see the paint of the fearless ships of the Predator and the paintings on them. Those crappy paintings. Now, even if the person on that ship is you, Yu Lianqing, you don’t have any countermeasures, right?"

Yu Lian groaned for a moment, wanting to say something, but in the end he managed to put on a look of admiration on his face, and said seriously: "Your Highness has foresight and foresight, and I am humbled..."

I have to admit, what she said seems to make sense. Anyway, the power of space bubble torpedoes is indeed amazing. It is indeed a way to use them as if they are hidden in the sleeves and suddenly reveal a fatal armor-piercing dagger.

However, don’t you think it’s a pity that such a sharp technology like space bubbles can only be used in this way?

Unexpectedly, a naturally intelligent god of war like Brunhilt would sometimes go astray!

The spirit of the universe and all the observers, I have not said anything, everything is the imagination of this woman! Even if you are really lame in the future, don’t say it was me who fooled you!

Thinking of this, Yu Lian quickly smoothed away the unnatural look on his face and prepared to say a few words of flattery. At this time, the hundreds of space bubble torpedoes had also rushed into the enemy fleet.

The tactic of face-to-face bombing with torpedoes and missiles has been used by many countries in the past. In fact, many multi-purpose fighters carrying anti-ship weapons have the same effect.

Although the Predator fleet was driven to the center of the galaxy, it had never cut off the channels of physical communication with other countries in the galaxy, and naturally also mastered the means of counterattack.

As a result, the thick and heavily armored warships at the forefront of the fleet began to turn their shield power to the maximum, and various defensive artillery fires intertwined into a dense close-defense network, literally covering the surrounding deep space with a large orange-red light. within the curtain.

Generally speaking, with such a close-defense routine, the interception efficiency against torpedoes and missiles bombed close to the face will be between 30 and 45%, and the fluctuation depends on the performance of the warship and the quality of the crew. As for those who cannot be stopped, of course they can only rely on battleships to resist.

These days, which serious battleship has not been hit by a torpedo? Anyway, if you defend the strong and attack the weak, just resist hard. If it is really unbearable, it will be a necessary loss in the war, and there is no other way.

However, in the confused sight of the predators, these hundreds of torpedoes, which seemed a bit too big, were wrapped in a light curtain, like disembodied ghosts, directly passing through everyone's close firepower. , advancing unimpeded through the gaps in the battleships, and then headed straight towards the dreadnoughts.

Of the six dreadnoughts in enemy group A, four are Spitfires with enhanced firepower and protection, and two are motherships carrying a large number of landing craft, fighter planes and stormtroopers. It is the existence of these giant ships that allows the predators to regard the entire galaxy as a hunting ground, and that makes all countries except the Empire and Alliance regard them as nightmares and natural disasters.

And these are the most suitable prey for space bubble torpedoes.

"The time has come to clear up the name, Seld." Brynhilt murmured.

At this moment, six dreadnoughts were hit by dozens of torpedoes almost at the same time.

Those weapons wrapped in space bubbles were like indestructible drills that made men feel very romantic. They ignored the shields and armor of the enemy ship and pierced their bodies deeply into the hull, and then a violent explosion occurred.

The moment the anti-matter warhead was released, everything he saw around him was instantly turned into powder. Those thick, yet ugly and ferocious ship armors did not seem to have been lifted up by an explosion from the inside out, but seemed to have disintegrated directly from the body, directly forming shocking holes in the hull.

The internal facilities, personnel, energy pipelines and even passages seemed to have been dug away directly.

However, this was only a moment. Immediately afterwards, the dug-out piece lost the structural balance that the flight area should have, and the leaked energy produced unpredictable violent reactions with space particles. The fire from the explosion spread out from the hollow scars and spread towards the entire hull.

The two Dreadnought-class motherships were hit by at least ten torpedoes. The dozens of kilometers long huge bodies suffered structural damage in an instant. They could no longer maintain stability, and the hulls began to collapse at an alarming speed. .

Anyone with knowledge about ships can see that these giant ships are hopeless. In just a few minutes, more than 200,000 sailors and stormtroopers were visually estimated to have lost their lives.

As for the situation of the four fire-breathing ships, it is actually not much better.

One ship was hit to the waist by all five torpedoes. The ship's waist suddenly lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then the explosion completely tore the hull apart and broke into two pieces. The two broken hulls lost their own power, but were pushed in opposite directions by inertia, crashing into surrounding friendly ships, causing a panic. They were drifting like space junk, with combustion and secondary explosions still occurring inside. Occasionally, individuals as fine as dust fell out of them, which was no longer clearly visible.

As for the red fire-breathing ship, which was said to be the flagship of General Huitan, it seemed to be more alert and obviously made tactical evasive actions, so it only took two shots. But even so, one of the main guns on her bow was destroyed, a large piece of the ship's side wall armor was scraped off, and at least one-third of the starboard side gun was missing.

From the perspective of a fleet battle, the combat effectiveness of this ship has dropped to half. If it continues to fight reluctantly, it is very likely to become the opponent's prey. According to the tactical maneuvers, it should be time to exit the battlefield quickly.

Ever since, no one could see any hesitation, and the red fire-breathing ship really began to retreat.

Really worthy of being an academic! At least he is really proficient in mastering the tactical maneuvers.

Of course, it's no wonder he made such a judgment, because at this moment, the Predator's A-group fleet had no chance.

In addition to the six dreadnoughts, which were the core "hero" units of the fleet, losing their combat effectiveness, five heavy aircraft carriers and seven large fire-breathing ships were also hit by at most three and at least one torpedo. One of the large fire-breathing ships that took three hits even turned into a huge explosion of light on the spot.

In this case, even if all the predators have iron wills, they can't stand it. The captains also had their own thoughts. Some wanted to escape, some wanted to fight to the death, and some were stupid enough to wait for news from above. Chaos will naturally spread to the entire fleet like a plague.

Of course, Brunhildt and Admiral Farrell would not miss this good opportunity. As a result, the imperial fleet, arranged in a crescent shape, continued to bombard the chaotic looters with artillery fire, while elegantly completing a semicircle slide in front of the enemy fleet, but once again distanced itself from the enemy fleet. .

When the main gun of the light spear on the Dawn Angel accurately penetrated an already seriously injured mothership, the predator fleet finally began to scatter.

Admiral Farrell said that if we want to win, we must completely defeat Cluster A within 100 minutes, but it has not been more than an hour since the war started.

"What a battle worthy of being recorded in history! Your Highness. My admiration for Your Highness is like an endless stream of bright stars!" Yu Liandao.

Brynhild glanced at the other party and showed a half-smile expression: "We haven't completely won yet. Besides, Yu Lianqing, I think there is something in your words."

Yu Lian shrugged and said: "I just feel that after this battle, there may be fewer and fewer gang fights. Because everyone is afraid of being hit in the face by a space torpedo at close range."

Major General Misaro, who had a strong man's hairstyle, was stunned when he heard this, and his expression was so shocked that he was about to collapse.

"Maybe it will happen more often." Giafel put forward a different opinion: "Because everyone wants to get close to each other. In this case, it may be necessary to rely on fighter planes, small ships and knights to create interceptions Belt? Your Highness, maybe we need to update the performance of the mecha’s space gliding pendant.”

The major general suddenly smiled again. He really couldn't imagine a space war where he couldn't join gangs, and he always felt that he would really become useless in that case.

"In this way, a more brutal strangulation situation will be formed in the mid-range space of the fleet." Ostana mused: "The Phalanx's hive system still has room for improvement!"

"Well, what you all said makes sense." Brynhildr nodded: "I will properly consider everyone's opinions. However, the battle is not over yet. Please clear the battlefield immediately and reorganize the formation."

In fact, the Predator A cluster was wiped out too quickly and painfully, causing almost no damage worth mentioning to the Imperial fleet. It only took a few minutes for the imperial fleet to reorganize its formation. Instead of pursuing the escaping remnants of cluster A, it directly drew a semicircular trajectory, suddenly cut into the first war speed, and faced cluster B directly.

As mentioned before, the other two clusters are actually designed to surround and intercept the fast fleet that is taking the retreat, and their strength is actually limited. Seeing that Group A, which had more troops than them, was defeated in a short period of time, I suddenly began to doubt my life, and there was obvious hesitation in my actions.

Such hesitation can be fatal on the battlefield.

By the time the Imperial fleet brought the enemy fleet Group B into range at charging speed, the opponent did not even change into a formation more suitable for defense or even escape.

As a result, after several rounds of bombardment, Group B completely lost its organization and collapsed on the spot after more than half of the ships were sunk or severely damaged.

At this time, Cluster C, which was the farthest away, had already fled towards the lion's den. From the beginning, they had no encounter with the Imperial fleet.

"Actually, if the enemy's remaining two clusters quickly reunite and fight steadily, they will still be able to fight our army." Giafel showed a look of regret.

However, Yu Lian always felt that this girl was clearly regretting that the other party ran too fast and that he did not do his best, so he smiled and said: "If it were me, when cluster A collapsed, I would start running away separately! "

Giaphiel looked over doubtfully.

"It's shameful to run away, but it's very useful! The purpose of the plunderers is to seek wealth, not death. Even if the two armies join forces, at most they will fight us in a war of attrition. What's the point? They are nomadic people anyway. Just spread out like this, find a moving gravity well, and enter the hinterland of the empire while grabbing and escaping."

Giafel pondered for a moment and had to admit that if this were really the case, everyone would have a headache.

"Fortunately they are not you." The Countess smiled.

"Yes, they even fled in the wrong direction. They actually went towards the lion's den." Yu Lian shrugged: "Maybe they felt that the fortress was in their own hands and they felt safe. But in this way, it would not be the opposite. Trapped in death?"

"That's not a dead place. Maybe the predators have regarded the lion's den as their own lair and are preparing to have children there." Brynhilt interjected: "Gili, you can attack now."

Now, the Reaver fleet has been routed, and the ships are scattered. The empire's high-speed cruisers also left the fleet formation and began to pursue and expand the results. At this time, if you engage in a gang-hopping and hiding-ship battle, you will be able to crush the situation.

...while chasing and jumping into gangs to seize the ship? Yu Lian always felt that the positions of the two sides seemed to be a bit reversed, but even the elite and professional imperial army needed trophies in war.

Even if they are penniless interstellar nomads, they do not have nothing to exploit. At worst, the ship could be sold for scrap and the crew could be sold as slaves, which would be enough for all the soldiers participating in the war to make a huge fortune.

Giafel nodded and bowed to Yu Lian, and strode away.

Yu Lian looked at the back and thought: "Your Highness, how about..."

"no."

"...I haven't said anything yet."

"You just want to change to a cruiser and watch the chase. What's so good about this? Just stay on the bridge and watch me."
