Him and their stars

We may have already decided the winner of this battle! The soldiers of the Thirteenth Fleet and the Starport Fortress all vaguely had this awareness in their hearts, and their morale suddenly rose.

As a result, under the command of Eleanor, the high-speed fleet composed of cruisers on the opposite planet took advantage of this opportunity to advance instead of retreating, launching the most violent bombardment since the war began. In just three minutes, all their front-end main guns fired at least five rounds, and they also smashed out at least more than two hundred missiles and fifty proton torpedoes.

But of course the Marauder ships won't just sit around and take a beating. Although they were blinded by electromagnetic interference, they were still firing back. This was much better than the big cats who were road specimens in the West End Galaxy back then.

However, after losing the ability to communicate, the ships lost the ability to organize operations and coordinate firepower, and could only fight independently. They finally sank a destroyer under strong electromagnetic interference, and severely injured the cruiser Corsica and had to withdraw from the battlefield. However, six of their own warships of the same level or even larger were completely destroyed.

This may be regarded as a fateful five minutes. During this period, both sides lost more warships than the total lost in more than an hour after the start of the war.

On the other side, the aircraft carrier fleet that was moving behind the battle site not only did not advance, but began to retreat step by step, and sent a signal requesting the fighter planes to return.

The Earthling fighter planes that were fighting had already prepared their formation and training to break away from the chaos, and their retreat was very smooth. Anyway, when the Predator fighter planes lost communication contact and the unified coordination and command of the mothership, they had shot down more than half of the enemy's fighter planes and more than forty drones. The Falcon team, which had just reaped the sweetness, even knocked out the missiles installed in the other half of the cabin when they returned, and destroyed a mothership that was visually estimated to be a million tons.

The results have been brilliant enough, so of course we should stop as soon as possible.

"If this war situation continues, our advantage can no longer be shaken." The staff officer of the Star Port Command said to Yang Xiyi: "Now, we just need to wait for the news from Colonel Yu Lian."

"It's not enough." Yang Xiyi said.

And at this moment, in the image detected by the star port, a round spherical drone mothership, like a mad dog that had just recovered from a hypnotic state, suddenly crashed into the one beside it. Predator battleship.

It must be admitted that the legacy left by the Enlightened Ones is indeed unreasonably hard. From a visual inspection, the ball was only less than one-third the size of the battleship next to it, but it did easily sink into the opponent's ugly but thick hull. The armor on the surface of the Predator warship, which seemed to be made of asteroid rocks, was very obviously deformed.

Ever since, the flames of the explosion emerged from the gaps in the battleship, and then formed an even more intense fire.

And more spherical drones broke away from the predator fleet formation as if they had broken free from their cages. They completely ignored the surrounding artillery fire and headed directly towards the starry sky further away, preparing to accelerate.

That's the direction of the gravity well they came from.

The drones that lost external "control" finally recovered. Compared with the triangular mining machines that are still mechanically attacking the surrounding fighters and warships indiscriminately, the actions of these mother machines truly show that they are really "civilian devices." Their established procedure is obviously not to attack, but to leave the galaxy at war and return to their place of work.

What a group of hard-working workers!

"Ignore the enemy ships on the opposite side." Sazaka said to his subordinates: "Hurry up and chase them."

"Yes, we just need to get out of the interference range." Dr. Warren looked at the plugboard that was still flashing red light: "We should be able to regain control, I'm confident."

"But we can't notify other captains." An officer said.

"Use a signal light! The other captains will understand when they see my actions." Warlord Sazaka said loudly.

Ever since, the Bloody Battle began to turn in front of the enemy. On a real battlefield, it is a very dangerous behavior to turn in front of the enemy fleet despite frontal artillery fire. But at this time, he couldn't control so much.

Fortunately, he is an atypical warlord who doesn't care much about the lives of his men. Fortunately, his ship is still quite strong.

So, after being hit several times in succession, the Bloody Battle completed its turn and prepared to speed up to chase the falling balls.

However, the Predator battleship, which was deprived of its "eyes" and "ears" by strong photon interference, did not realize that the Rogue Squadron, composed of White Devil fighter jets with two sun sails, had already arrived on the battlefield covered in rays of light.

Of course, even if the reconnaissance equipment was still intact, it would be difficult for Sazaka to believe this scene.

You know, the Rogue Team set off from the Throne in the distance more than forty minutes ago. At that time, the distance between the two sides was still more than half an astronomical unit.

In the understanding of General Sazaka, a rare intellectual among trolls, such a fast fighter plane cannot exist in this world.

But in fact, the Rogue Squad's four White Devil fighter jets have already arrived.

At this time, the spherical unmanned mothership has escaped the protection of the predator battleship and the triangular mining machine. Although they cruise at a very fast speed, in the eyes of the White Devil fighter planes with their light wings spread out, they look like a large group of round chocolate balls.

Then, the twelve unmanned aircraft collided with the eight space bubble torpedoes thrown by the Rogue Squad.

In Sazaka's sight, those spheres that had existed in this world for who knows how many years seemed to be swallowed up by miniature black holes.

The corners of his mouth twitched, but his expression remained calm. He just pushed up his glasses and then looked sideways at Dr. Warren.

"Actually, maybe we can salvage it when there is still time, maybe we can salvage a few..." Dr. Warren looked distressed, but still said: "In addition, Leviathan is still there. And our military strength is still there. Have the advantage. If we continue to fight step by step, we still have a chance of victory."

"No. In fact, we can implement Plan B."

"Plan B?" Dr. Warren was slightly startled.

"Yes, before going on the expedition, the Great Khan had discussed with me what I should do in this situation."

Dr. Warren's expression was ugly for a moment.

"...It's just that, with the current situation, it's quite difficult to implement Plan B. We still need you to check for leaks and fill in the gaps!" The Great Khan sighed and picked up the chrysalis-shaped pendant hanging on his chest. , full of hesitation.

Then, as if he had done some very important psychological construction, he took a deep breath, pinched a little blood from his finger and smeared it on the chrysalis, then raised it to his mouth and muttered a few words almost Inaudible words.

The Troll General's voice was indeed very low, but it was still heard by Dr. Warren next to him. After all, this technical expert is a psyker. Although he is a "wisdom" that cannot be beaten, his ears and eyes are actually far better than ordinary people, and even better than most martial arts extraordinary people.

He could clearly hear Overseer Sazaka pronouncing a string of sinister and gloomy characters, just like an invisible demon hiding beside you, secretly whispering in your ear after the dark silence. of.

This is not a sound that the troll's vocal chords can produce.

At this time, the battlefield situation was actually very clear. After the Rogue Squad's space bubble torpedo defeated the unmanned mother aircraft, they did not rush back to the Scarlet Throne, but flew directly towards the closer Saratoga for supplies. As for the Scarlet Throne, which they originally belonged to, it is also accelerating towards the main battlefield. The temporary main guns at the bow of the ship are being charged - although they are temporarily installed replacements, they are still the main guns of the dreadnought class.

The squadron led by Lieutenant-General Goss was in hot pursuit. They should already know their situation at this time, but besides continuing the pursuit, they really don't know what else to do.

In the further direction, the star-devouring insect was no more than a million kilometers away from the desert planet. This huge space disaster raised its head, opened its mouthparts, and exposed its deep throat. It was like a twisted monster spliced ​​together by tens of thousands of impact mining machines. No one doubts that once eaten by these mouthparts, not only the planet, but also a large solid iron lump will be torn into pieces in an instant.

But at this time, the huge snake-like monster seemed to have stopped for a moment. Then, it crossed its body slightly awkwardly, raised its head and clicked its sharp and terrifying mouthparts towards the distant battle site, and then drifted away from the planet's gravity orbit, heading towards a new place further away. Pounced in the direction of Lushun Military Port.

For such a Levitan behemoth that only knows how to hunt planets, it almost completely ignored the accelerating assault landing craft that was approaching from behind.

Indeed, in front of this giant thing that stretches for thousands of miles, even the Titan ship looks very small. A mere landing craft may not be as big as the parasite on it.

On the landing craft, Yu Lian had completed the final step through the message relayed from the Throne.

"Lieutenant Colonel Kong Qingyu, please follow the original plan and lead the Throne to meet up with Rear Admiral Marklov's fleet. If my prediction is correct, the predator fleet that continues to pursue behind you should launch a desperate gang-hopping attack. This It is also the only way they can reverse the occupation. When that time comes, please serve as the first layer of shield for the entire fleet."

"Understood! All stormtroopers and mercenaries on board are ready for battle!" The old first mate replied in a firm tone: "Please also be careful. The landing craft you are riding on will soon be attacked by the other party. Range. They may also send landing troops to prevent you from hunting the Star Eater Bugs."

Yu Lian glanced at his comrades in the cabin and couldn't help laughing: "If this is really going to be the case, I will be extremely happy."

This is indeed what he thinks. To be honest, in the battle to hunt down the star-devouring insects, no matter how many predators come behind, it will not have any impact. On the contrary, it can relieve the pressure on the friendly forces, so why not do it.

Probably his high profile really impressed the opponent. Although the Predator warships were still accelerating in pursuit of the Scarlet Throne, they launched eight fighter planes and four landing craft.

Miss Anne Romanova, who was serving as co-pilot and enemy monitor, soon discovered this.

"Keep the current speed, they can't catch up!" Yu Lian replied.

"What about landing?" Colonel Dutt asked.

There are two ways to land an assault landing craft, one is to crash into it, and the other is to slow down and land normally. However, it is obvious that the armored shell of the Star Devourer, which can withstand the main guns of the battleships, cannot be broken open casually, so the latter method can only be used.

Yu Lian glanced at Colonel Dut, said nothing, and then pointed to the ground with his finger. This ace pilot who claims to be proficient in everything and can fly anything immediately understood. After a moment of surprise, his smile gradually changed... ah no, he became domineering.

"I have never gotten along with an extraordinary person like you before. If it were a landing force composed of ordinary people, no matter how well-equipped or well-trained they are, they would not dare to do this." Colonel Dutt said.

"The armored grenadiers of the Imperial Guard don't dare to do this. However, the Astral Knights have never done it less." Yu Liandao.

"I understand. Lieutenant Romanova, prepare to adjust the balance point reference altitude to 1.4, and maintain the current power of the sublight engine."

Miss Anne was just about to execute it, but she couldn't help but be startled when she heard the parameters: "Colonel, are you sure?"

"Of course, we are sure, we have to lower the escort now! Fly close to the skin of this big guy! What? Don't you dare? Miss Beifeng of our Thirteenth Fleet."

Miss Anne Romanova, who was the eldest sister of the Stormtroopers when she was a student, blew a loud whistle: "Then let's change it to 1.2. It's more extreme."

"Very good!" Dutt smiled.

Yu Lian guessed that it was a good thing that the psychics behind them had never played with airships and could not understand the words of these two crazy pilots, otherwise one or two of them would have jumped up in fright.

The so-called reference height of the balance point is 1.2, which means that when an attack airship or fighter jet is flying close to a large ship or other space flying object, it cannot be more than 120 meters away from the opponent.

That sounds like a high level. But we must know that the Star Eater is a space giant with a length of thousands of miles. Any slight deviation or movement of its body will cause a literal landslide.

120 meters is far from a safe distance.

But before he could object, the two ace pilots had already pushed the assault craft to land. In Yu Lian's sight, the giant thing beneath him was getting closer and closer, as if everyone was crashing into a brown mountain wall.

He closed his eyes and tried to use his perception to find those abnormal spiritual fluctuations.

He did feel it, but it was like a bottomless swamp, and he almost fell into it and couldn't escape.
