001 Unexpected victory

When Angelia and Asure returned to the captain's room, a middle-aged man in his 40s was already waiting outside the door. The man was a little short, but he was still strong and well-proportioned, unlike some people who start to get fat in middle age. And those green eyes were firm and bright, as if they could see through a qiΔ“.

Angelia pressed her right hand against the door, allowing the scanner to verify her identity, the door opened, and the three of them walked in together.

"Captain, the situation has changed." Chief of Staff Eder PraΓ±o wasted no time, and as Angelia sat down in his chair, he began his debriefing, "According to credible information, the Empire has sent its best fleet of 'Blazing Knights' to the planet of Gort to join forces with the Templars and the Divine Wings fleet to break through the Alliance's southeastern defenses. ”

"The 'Blazing Knights' fleet!? Is there a fleet led by Frem Daizer, known as the 'Fire Lion King'? Angelia frowned.

"Yes, and Frem Daizer is flanked by the Empire's Chief of Staff, Clint Luther, known as the 'Viper'. There is also a fighter unit called 'Silver Lightning' under the fleet, which still holds the record of 0 shots downed. As a result, the Blazing Knights became the Empire's strongest fleet. Edel showed a rare stern expression.

"Haven't they been responsible for the suppression of the Alliance Army on the Western Front of the Star Map?"

"I'm afraid they have completed their mission and have been sent to the southeast front by the Empire."

Angelia thought for a moment, then folded her hands on the table and looked up at her chief of staff: "Eder, in your opinion, does the Alliance army stationed there have a chance of victory?" ”

"Hardly." The Chief of Staff shook his head, "The warships of the Royal Fleet are much more advanced than the garrison warships used by the Alliance Army in terms of performance and weaponry, and it has been the limit to be able to compete with the two Imperial fleets before, and the addition of the 'Blazing Knights' will completely break this status quo of equal strength." Fear...... One by one, the planets that the Alliance has worked so hard to capture will be lost. ”

"After that...... It's Morit's turn. Angelia stood up and worked on the control panel on the table for a moment, and a holographic projection of the star map appeared in the center of the room. Angelia dragged the planets Gort and Morrit out of the star map with her fingers, and the image showed dioramas and strategic information of the two planets.

After a long time, Angelia's gaze left the strategic information in front of her, and looked back at the chief of staff: "Is it still too late?" Eder? ”

"Captain, you're going to ......," Eder suddenly understood the captain's thoughts, "If we set off now, we should be able to catch the time when the 'Blazing Knights' arrived on Gort's planet." ”

Asura, who had been silent, finally couldn't help but ask, "Your Excellency, Captain, do we still want to help the Alliance Army?" ”

Angelia looked at Asura's frowning brows, and responded to her subordinates' questions with a smile: "I understand your hesitation, but I can't sit back and watch the alliance army be defeated by the emperor." Because the people of the Union are innocent, if we don't do something about it at this time, how many civilians will be drawn into the war and become victims of war? ”

Asura let go of his frowning brow: "I understand, I will definitely do my best to assist Your Excellency the Captain." ”

Angelia nodded: "Then let's hold a combat meeting next!" ”

===========================================================================

When he received the news that the "Blazing Legion" was approaching the front line, the string in the heart of Alliance General Fran Dale suddenly tightened. He immediately went to the Governor's Palace to discuss a defensive strategy with Commander-in-Chief Omha Rowland, the leader of the Confederate forces.

Fran Dale and Omha Loren were both outstanding officers in the Imperial Royal Fleet before the formation of the Nova Alliance, and they were ordered to suppress the uprising of the people on the frontier planets. However, when the Empire issued an order to kill all the rebels, whether armed or unarmed, men, women, and children, the two decided to disobey the orders of their superiors and instead help the rebels.

After that, the two became the souls of the rebel army.

Commander-in-Chief Roland has a clear mind and is able to grasp the situation well, while Admiral Dale has a wealth of combat experience and is good at strategic deployment.

However, when they heard that the Western Front had completely collapsed, the Second Fleet had been wiped out, and that they were about to face off against three Royal Fleets at the same time on the Southeast Front, both of them felt a hint of despair.

The southeastern front is the last hope of the Confederate army, and once it is lost, the emperor will soon attack Morit, and the Confederate army will be completely defeated.

Rich experience told them that there was a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and the enemy, and it was almost impossible for the Alliance Army to win this battle.

But the Nova Alliance has been able to grow to its current scale because of its tenacious belief and determination to win. As the supreme leader of the Alliance Army, how could the two of them be defeated lightly?

After a few days of military meetings, Admiral Dale decided to lead the First Fleet of the Alliance stationed in Morritt and personally go to the planet of Golt, which belongs to the Southeast Front, to command the Alliance forces to meet the Imperial Royal Fleet.

After 12 days of nervousness throughout the Alliance Command, this showdown had the potential to change the situation between the two sides......

Planet Golt is an asteroid with a ring of tiny rocks that surrounds the planet and is particularly beautiful in the sea of stars.

However, in the long war, the beauty of this planet has long since disappeared, leaving only the devastation after the raging war. Even her proud sparkling aura has almost disappeared.

And just above the planet, the pitch-black space was almost covered by a dense group of warships.

The three Royal Imperial fleets have been assembled, with a total of 34 ships, including the Blazing Knights core mothership USS Roscross, the Templar core mothership USS Glory, and the Holy Wings core mothership USS Watcher.

The First Fleet led by Admiral Fran Dyer, the Third Fleet and the Fourth Fleet of the Vanguard only had only 28 warships, and only the "Goddess of Victory" on which Admiral Fran Dyer was riding was an aircraft carrier, and the gap in strength between the two sides was very obvious.

Admiral Dale is a middle-aged man in his 50s, with a slightly fat build, dark brown hair interspersed with locks of silver, and white frost on his sideburns.

He looked down at his palm, which was a little damp. I really didn't expect that he would be so nervous, Dale closed his eyes for a moment, and many thoughts flashed through his mind, including the smiles of his wife and two daughters, and the young and resolute faces of the Union soldiers. Opening his eyes suddenly, Admiral Dale concentrated on putting those distracting thoughts aside, and focused all his energy on the huge imperial ** fleet in front of him.

Judging from the formation of the fleet, the Royal Fleet did not formulate any strategy at all, but only wanted to use pure strength to defeat the inferior Alliance Army. "I'm really despised by that stinky boy of the 'Fire Lion King'." Admiral Dale clenched his fists.

"Commander-in-Chief! Enemy ships are on the move! The messenger shouted, "All the ships of the 'Templars' and 'Holy Wings' fleets are heading towards us at full speed, and are about to enter range!" ”

"Third and Fourth Fleets, move forward, turn on the AT shield, and prepare the B-23 interceptor missile!" Admiral Dale gave the order, and the Third and Fourth fleets reacted immediately, keeping the formation moving forward.

1500 m ...... 1200 m ...... At 1,000 meters, both sides slowly entered the range of the other, just waiting for the order to attack.

The interstellar dust slammed against the battleship's icy armor and was quickly bounced away, as if shocked by the grandeur.

The dark sea of stars was silent.

At this moment, the Templars and Divine Wings all fired a salvo of naval fire, and countless light particle cannons dragged a long red trail towards the Alliance Army!

"The enemy has opened fire! It's an armor-piercing light particle cannon! "The communicators nervously operated on the control panel, gathering information about the enemy.

As soon as the words fell, artillery fire rained down on the Third and Fourth Fleets in front! At the same time, the Coalition forces fired B-23 interceptor missiles, but this was only able to withstand a small part of the artillery fire. The AT shield was easily broken under the attack of the light particle cannon, and four warships of the Alliance Army suddenly caught fire and exploded!

"Damn, armor-piercing light particle cannons? It was the style of the 'Fire Lion King' to use such a weapon with such a large energy consumption just after the start of the war! Admiral Dale frowned, "Third and Fourth Fleet!" Get ready to fight back! Enemies use an armor-piercing light particle cannon and have 320 seconds to recharge! We're going to use this time to destroy as many of their ships as we can! ”

The Third and Fourth Fleets received orders, and all the warships opened fire on the enemy. However, the Emperor ** battleship also turned on the AT shield to keep the Allied artillery fire out of the shield. The alliance warships are not like the emperor ** battleships, each battleship is equipped with armor-piercing weapons, which is quite difficult to fight, and once the armor-piercing light particle cannon is fired, the lengthy charging time is even more disadvantageous for the weak alliance army.

At the same time, the Imperial ** warship released a highly mobile fighter force and quickly attacked the alliance forces.

The fighter unit has great speed and agile reactions, and the huge group of fighters easily dodges the artillery fire from the Union warships and continues to bombard the ships!

At the same time, the Union warships also sent fighter planes to entangle with the enemy's aircraft group.

For a time, artillery fire and missiles were intertwined into a net of heaven and earth, illuminating the dark sea of stars brightly, and as soon as countless fighters touched that huge net, they were instantly destroyed and killed, and were blown into pieces of dust in the sea of stars!

At this moment, the battle is in a stalemate, but the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for the alliance forces, and the number of fighters and warships is gradually decreasing.

And the armor-piercing light particle cannon of the Emperor ** battleship has also been fully charged, and the crimson cannon fire is attacking the alliance forces again! And this time, a total of five battleships of the Union forces were destroyed.

"Damn it! Is there too much difference in the strength of the enemy and the enemy? Admiral Dale slammed his fist into the table, his teeth gurgling. His First Fleet joined the battle, but that didn't change the situation. And the "Blazing Knight" has not yet entered the battle.

Charlotte...... Polly...... Please forgive Dad...... Daddy may not be able to go back......" Admiral Dale closed his eyes in some despair.

"Commander-in-Chief...... Commander in chief!! Look at you!! Admiral Dale heard the communicator's shocked voice and opened his eyes. The scene in front of him made him unbelievable!

The emperor is actually retreating!

"This ...... What's going on?! Admiral Dale couldn't believe his eyes.

"Total ...... Commander-in-Chief, are we going to pursue it? ”

Admiral Dale calmed down a little and issued an order: "Don't pursue, quickly integrate the formation, and wait and see!" ”

However, the emperor ** really retreated, there was no imaginary conspiracy, and they all left the battlefield so quickly.

"Well, are we victorious?" Admiral Dale was confused by the actions of the emperor, however, this was a good thing after all, and soon, the warriors quickly turned from surprise to joy.

"We won!! We are victorious!! We hold the Southeastern Front!! The soldiers cheered and hugged each other excitedly.

Looking at the excited warriors after the victory, Admiral Dale also breathed a sigh of relief: "All the fleet, return to the Lockwood base, and the reconnaissance ship will keep an eye on the movements of the imperial fleet!" Set sail! ”

The Confederates turned around and headed for the garrison base on Lockwood.

And what exactly this qiΔ“ is going on, no one in the alliance army knows.

However, there is one person who knows, and that is the admiral of the Emperor's "Blazing Knights" fleet, Rear Admiral Frem Daizer. He could never have imagined that he would suffer the first failure in his life, and it was under this absolute advantage.

It all started an hour ago......
