A total of one hundred and forty-four heavy torpedoes, with a long tail flame, grazed past the three Kodiak-class battlecruisers and flew straight towards the four starships!

The Starship of the Scyclians immediately opened fire on these torpedoes to intercept them - there were laser weapons, there were also plasma beams - and covered these heavy torpedoes with dense firepower!

But under this intensive attack, only a small number of torpedoes flying at the front were destroyed!

The strengthened heavy torpedo's defense capability has been greatly improved, and even the anti-aircraft fire of the Sijing people is difficult to easily break through the shell of the torpedo and destroy it. Dr. Kane's targeted upgrade served its purpose.

In addition to the increase in defense, the speed of the torpedoes has also increased a lot, after the Sijing people destroyed about half of the torpedoes, the remaining torpedoes all hit the two Destroyer gunboats!

In the bright explosion of fire, the shields of the two Destroyer gunboats were instantly depleted, and the hull armor was torn apart by the other torpedo blows that followed! Only half the number of heavy torpedoes still destroyed two Destroyer gunboats!

The Sijing people probably already know that their destroyer gunships have become more and more overwhelmed in the battle with the human space fleet, and they are more likely to use these artillery bombardment starships that can still be used in ground warfare as meat shields for planetary assault motherships, and resist the blows of human starships for planetary assault motherships whose combat effectiveness has not decreased much.

So the two Destroyer gunships were destroyed, and the Sijing people didn't feel much nervousness, and the two planetary assault motherships also continued to block the human fleet route quite normally - their carrier-based aircraft had been exhausted, and they could only rely on naval guns to engage the human starships.

Subsequently, the planetary assault mothership fired!

The guns of the planetary assault motherships have a longer range than the human starships, and while the three Kodiak-class ships were still trying to get close to them, the bow guns of the two planetary assault motherships opened fire, and the high-energy rays instantly streaked through space and hit a battle cruiser!

Although it is an upgraded battle cruiser after Dr. Kane, in the face of the bow gun of the Sijing Planetary Assault Mothership, this battle cruiser still cannot fully resist such a blow! The hull armor of the ship turned into a liquid state in an instant, and then vaporized, and soon the bow of the ship was drilled through two large holes by high-energy rays, which went straight into the ship!

Violent explosions erupted from these two big holes!

Although this Kodiak-class battle cruiser was hit by two high-energy rays in a row but was not completely sunk, judging from the flames and smoke that kept gushing outward, and the entire battleship rolling and falling towards the earth, it not only lost its combat effectiveness, but also lost its power.

It's just that the GDI fleet can't care about rescuing friendly ships at this time, due to the extremely fast speed of navigation in space, the distance between the two is not too far, and after the planetary assault mothership fires, they also enter the range of the human fleet's weapons!

It's too late to use your own bow gun (the bow gun of the Kodiakdi class is covered with a layer of heavy armor, and the use will need to open the armor and recharge it before it can be fired, unlike the planetary assault mothership, the bow gun is exposed and not covered by armor, as long as you don't break the shield of the planetary assault mothership, you won't be able to hurt the bow gun, and they naturally don't need armor to protect the bow gun), the two Kodiak-class battle cruisers have several combined magnetic rail main guns that fire continuously, shooting out large pieces of high-density alloy pointed armor-piercing catapults, Several powerful laser launchers also irradiated the planetary assault mothership!

The destruction of the shield of the planetary assault mothership by the strong laser is not very satisfactory, and the protection of the shield system after the upgrade of the Sijing people seems to have been greatly improved, but the kinetic armor-piercing projectiles fired by those railguns, every time the shield hits, the flash of the shield drops brightly, and it seems that the destruction effect is full!

Hit by dozens of railguns in a row, even the upgraded shields of planetary assault motherships are starting to be overwhelmed, and in this case, they should perform various maneuvers to avoid the shelling of human starships, rather than continue to stay in place and shoot at human starships.

However, these two planetary assault carriers did not carry out evasive maneuvers, but were firmly nailed in front of the GDI orbital alert fleet, insisting on blocking the route of the human fleet and preventing them from escaping this battlefield!

The Schipper Starship has upgraded its shields, so even if it is continuously hit by the Kodiak-class rail-based guns, it can't be destroyed by the battlecruiser's main guns, but completely restrains all the firepower of the two GDI capital ships.

In addition to the powerful but slow rate of fire of the bow guns, there are other naval guns, but the positioning of the planetary assault carriers is after all an aircraft carrier, not an artillery warship, and the number of their large naval guns is not as large as that of the Kodiak-class, so the firepower projection density is not as high as that of the human capital ship during the shelling engagement, and it can only rely on the high power of the plasma cannon to force the two Kodiak-class to constantly evade maneuvers, making it difficult for them to complete the work of defeating the planetary assault carrier.

At this time, those destroyers who had been following the battle cruiser had the next move.

Six destroyers were left to continue to escort friendly ships towing rail-ion guns, and the other nine destroyers rushed at full speed towards the planetary assault mothership!

The battle between the Kodiak-class battle cruisers and the planetary assault motherships seemed to have been fighting for a long time, but in fact, it was only a minute later, and the nine destroyers took advantage of their temporary stalemate, caught up from behind and participated in the battle between the capital ships!

Nine Higra-class destroyers, 45 twin-mounted 450-mm electric heat guns, after quickly locking on, fired at them. Along with these kinetic shells, there are also heavy space torpedoes on destroyers!

One minute is enough time for these destroyers to reload the second round of torpedoes, but they only have the opportunity to launch three rounds of heavy space torpedoes, limited by the size of the hull, the Higra-class destroyers have to consider the starship system, armor, engines, weapons, and ammunition after carrying a hundred crew members to fight and live in space.

Considering that the Higra-class expulsion positioning is an escort operation, and it is not its main business to fight hard with the main ship of the Sijing people, it is natural to face long-term combat in terms of ammunition, so after giving priority to ensuring the main gun, close defense artillery, and anti-aircraft missiles, there is not much space left for heavy torpedoes, and together with the six that were loaded in the launch tube at the beginning, they can carry eighteen heavy space torpedoes thirty meters long, which is already considered a high space utilization.

The sudden impact of the nine destroyers broke the original temporary balance in an instant, not to mention the high-speed armor-piercing shells fired by the 450mm electric cannon, with the attack power of the 600mm main guns of the battle cruiser, the shield system of the planetary assault mothership was overloaded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the salvo of fifty-four heavy space torpedoes alone made the shield of a planetary assault mothership disappear, the hull armor was torn apart by large pieces, and the dense explosion suddenly covered the whole body of the planetary assault mothership!

Before the flames dissipated, a large amount of hull wreckage flew out of the flames and scattered in all directions - this planetary assault mothership finally couldn't hold on in the face of such a dense attack, and exploded, and the entire hull of the ship was also torn apart in the explosion, and it was no longer possible to see the original appearance!

A destroyer's decisive assault that has successfully destroyed a planetary assault mothership! In the direction of their breakthrough, there was only one planetary assault mothership left, and it could no longer stop the departure of the human fleet, even if the Sijing human starships in other directions chased after it with all their might, it would not be too late to intercept this fleet before the fleet directly under the GDI Command arrived, let alone want to destroy the orbital ion cannon!

Colonel Tagate's temporary plan looks like it has succeeded!

A dazzling light appeared next to the flames of the explosion of the planetary assault mothership, and a Higra-class destroyer was set on fire by the planetary assault mothership that suddenly changed its target, and all the shells of several heavy plasma cannons hit the destroyer, destroying the destroyer on the spot that was far inferior in size and defense to the Kodiak-class battle cruisers!

Seeing that it was difficult to destroy the three orbital ion cannons, and that they could not stop all the human starships, the Sijing people seemed to have changed their minds and planned to destroy as many human starships as possible before the planetary assault mothership was destroyed.

The upgraded Kodiak-class battle cruiser, a starship with the same size as the planetary assault mothership and enough heavy armor defense and force field defense capabilities, is impossible to say that it can be easily destroyed even if it is the current planetary assault mothership, but the Higra-class destroyer is different.

The speed, volume, defense, and structure are far inferior to the Kodiak-class ones, not to mention the bow gun of the planetary assault mothership, even if it is the other main guns and secondary guns of the planetary assault mothership, they can bring lethal damage to the destroyers, if these planetary assault motherships attack these destroyers with all their might, the nine destroyers will be destroyed in a few minutes!

But the good thing is—

After the two Kodiak-class ships lost one target, they concentrated all their firepower on the last target in front, not to mention, Lin Hai's direct fleet was also about to arrive, and even the energy detection equipment on each ship could detect it, and those distant Sea Behemoth-class heavy cruisers had already had a high-energy reaction, and the bow fusion cannon they were equipped with had entered the launch stage!

There are not many opportunities left for Sijing people!

The huge wormhole energy reaction spread all over the sensors of all the starships present, and the alarms came and went, and the twelve sea behemoth-class heavy cruisers that had already included some of the Sijing starships in the lock target changed their attack targets as soon as possible, marking the wormhole energy reaction source area detected by the sensors as a new attack target!

Between the GDI orbital alert fleet and the Sijing fleet that pursued them in the rear, a huge wormhole, like a black hole, appeared on the battlefield!

"Not a crack!" Glancing at the sensor screen, Tagate reported to Lin Hai with a serious face, "Even if it is, our fleet is moving at a speed of tens of kilometers per second, and the unstable wormhole generated by the crack generator will not hit them at all!" ”

"I know that." Although his expression was serious, his tone was quite calm, and Lin Hai's gaze never left the home screen, "Now tell me, where is the super mothership of the Sijing people?" ”
