Chapter 55: Initiative

After 8 years in the army, Fengyu has experienced all kinds of winds and waves, so he has formed a concept that as long as he finds the right method, there is no unfinished task. www.biquge.info In addition to this positive attitude, there is also Gemini's obsessive-compulsive disorder, which makes him face challenges, as long as he can't prove that the matter is beyond his ability, he will not give up easily

In fact, the situation that the 9th Fleet only dispatched one formation was undoubtedly the easiest situation for Fengyu and the Awakened pilots, and the reason why Fengyu was suspicious was entirely because the other party came too quickly. After ruling this out, what to do or what to do, the initiative is always on the side of the "Storm".

So there was no suspense in the next action, and the "Storm" directly forcibly cut into the formation queue in an optically invisible posture, locking on a super-star destroyer located on the side of the queue near the WG1 shipping center as the target of attack.

Maneuvering in optical stealth was already a bug, but the prototype of the Tempest-class destroyer simply demonstrated the madness of stealth shelling.

An alarm came out of the energy sensor of the UAC superstar destroyer targeted by the "Tempest", indicating a strong energy response in the vicinity, judging by its strength, it should be an 800mm main gun charging. But the problem is that the ship's anti-lock warning device does not respond, and there is no trace of the enemy in the optical sensor, which makes the captain who is accustomed to relying on system alerts to make judgments a little confused.

He didn't even know what he had to do, and he couldn't find his target if he wanted to fire back. But after all, he was a battle-hardened commander, and he felt a little unsteady in his heart, and he always felt as if he had forgotten something.

At this moment, an urgent command came from the flagship of the formation, "'Big Belly No. 8', quickly open your R particle shield!" The enemy is right next to you! ”

The formation had just exited the curvature flight before, and it was still in the deceleration stage at this time, and it was still tens of thousands of kilometers away from the location where the Soros consortium caravan was attacked, and there was no trace of the enemy ship.

Who would have thought that just as they passed through the WG1 shipping center, a mysterious enemy suddenly appeared and caught them off guard, and the "Potbelly No. 8" super-star destroyer that bore the brunt of the attack was even more obsessed with the authorities, completely unaware that they had become the target of the attack.

On the contrary, other ships that were far away noticed the sudden appearance of a large shadow area next to the "Big Belly 8" near the WG1 shipping center, and immediately realized that this was a sign of an enemy attack.

"Yes, I forgot to open the shield......" The captain's face turned grim, he knew it was too late.

He was an experienced captain who had excelled during the SG4 campaign, but he hesitated for a moment today, and more than 40 seconds had passed since the first alarm sounded by the energy sensor.

More than 40 seconds of charging means that the 800mm gun has accumulated about 75% of its energy, which is enough to penetrate its power department and cause the entire ship to detonate in the face of a battleship without an R-particle shield.

His judgment was very accurate, and before the "Big Belly No. 8" opened the R particle shield, Feng Yu, who had seen the time-reduced shelling method of Captain Zhu Nan of the MGAS-01, immediately crossed Luo Yunxi and directly gave the fire controller the order to open fire.

As soon as the battle began, the formation of the 9th Fleet had not yet seen the appearance of the enemy, and lost a super-star destroyer and two mobile squads on board that had not yet had time to launch. The nuclear explosion of the power furnace directly engulfed all the lives on the ship, and no one was spared.

At the same time as the "Big Belly 8" was sunk, the "Quasi-Ace Squad", which was already ready to go, was ejected, and Fengyu's Mobile Suit WS also joined the starting Valkyrie team to eject together.

This was the first time that the "Tempest" was in full swing since it was put into service, and it immediately showed amazing attack power.

Feng Yu led Valkyrie's team straight to the nearest supernova capital ship, and at the same time sacrificed the ship slashing knife.

There's a reason he's so decisive.

The formation of the 9th Fleet has a total of 10 warships, including one supernova star capital ship capable of carrying 6 mobile teams, one old main sequence star capital ship carrying 1 team, and 5 superstar and 3 comet-class destroyers carrying another 13 mobile teams.

The "Tempest" had already sunk a super-star destroyer with one shot and caused the two mobile teams to die before they could eject, so if Fengyu could snatch the supernova capital ship and sink it before ejecting, it would be equivalent to destroying 6 mobile teams at once. Together, this formation lost 40 MS in one go, reaching a small half, and the next battle was easy.

And Feng Yu still has a guess in his heart, if this supernova star capital ship is the flagship of the formation, then the next battle will be easier. His conjecture was by no means unfounded, in fact, each formation of the first-line fleets of various countries today usually has two capital ships, of which the flagship of the formation is normally played by the one with the more advanced model.

There is no doubt that when a super-nova star and a major prologue star are placed together, there is not much suspense about which flagship it is.

The supernova capital ship can carry 6 mobile squads, but because it is a battleship, it is not as capable of setting up a large number of ejection ports at will like troop carriers, so the ship can only fire two squads at the same time, and then launch the next two at half-minute intervals. Speaking of which, it takes more than a minute and a few seconds to launch all the six mobile teams on board.

The "Tempest" had been quietly approaching the supernova capital ship at the same time as the bombardment of the "Potbelly 8" before, so when Fengyu and they catapulted, they were only less than 1,000 kilometers away from the opponent, and the speed of Mobile Suit WS was a few seconds.

Seeing a water-blue mobile squad suddenly flying out of the shadow area, the formation commander sitting on the supernova capital ship had realized that his ship was the main target of the opponent, and immediately ordered all the warships to start ejecting mobile suits.

For a time, 10 squads carried by 9 battleships were ejected at the same time, and 50 MSs surrounded Fengyu and Valkyrie from all directions.

When the fleet sails in formation, depending on the situation at the time, the spacing of the ships is usually maintained at about 100-1000 km. In the case of first-level combat readiness, warships generally do not form a dense formation 100 kilometers apart, so as not to lack room to move and dodge in the face of the opponent's intensive artillery attack. Dense formations are usually only used to enter the main channel of the Kuiper Belt or to pass through minefields. And the larger the battle, the looser the formation of the battleship will be, even more than 1,000 kilometers apart.

At this time, the formation of the 9th Fleet adopted a small-scale battle formation with a distance of 500 kilometers, with the supernova capital ship in the center of the array, another main sequence star capital ship in front of it 1,000 kilometers as the forward, a super-star destroyer in the rear hall of 1,000 kilometers, and three comet-class destroyers each located in a 120-degree sector, also 500 kilometers away. The remaining four super-star destroyers are each responsible for a 90-degree sector in the outer ring of 1,000 kilometers from the supernova.

The "Big Belly 8" superstar that the "Tempest" sank before is located 1,000 kilometers on the right flank, and the direction that Fengyu and Valkyrie's team break into will be intercepted by 4 mobile teams. Two of the squads were from the Supernova capital ship itself, and the other two were ejected from a comet-class destroyer.

20 MS is a chicken and a dog for Fengyu, and it is vulnerable. However, considering that over time, the number of mobile suits ejected by the opponent will gradually increase to 90, even if he is not afraid, the Awakened Pilot will inevitably be damaged, so he must sink the supernova capital ship before the second round of ejections, and directly eliminate the 4 squads to be launched.

"Valkyrie, your squad is responsible for holding down the two MS squads that are closer!" Feng Yu directly assigned the MS from the comet-class destroyer to the "quasi-ace squad" that followed him. And he himself continued to go straight to the flagship of the formation.
