Chapter 268: The Ark of the Star Patrol (11)
"The 17th Star Destroyer Battle Group, move in the direction of E21 and crush the Catelantis fleet there."
"The 33rd Star Destroyer Battle Group, the 22nd Battle Group, let go of the F3 area and let the Gatlanthus fleet move in. The 2nd Mobile Fleet of Cryptoras was responsible for annihilating them. β
"The C6 area found a relatively complete Cartlantis cruiser, sent marines, and began to jump to seize ships."
"The soldiers of Catellantis will blow themselves up, wouldn't it be too irresponsible to send soldiers up?"
"Aren't there combat robots? Let the battle robots go. β
"Robots' lives matter!"
"Combat robots, don't turn on the perceptual module in battle!"

"Don't let strange conversations dominate the line of command!"
"The Central Command of the Integration Department has called, and the 8th to 16th fleets, as well as the 1st and 2nd Titan-class battleship fleets, have urgently set sail for the Macross World to assist in the defense."
"MACROSSWarspy has called, requesting that after recovering the combat troops, return to the world to assist in defense."
"The I51 sector was breached, and the 4th Star Destroyer Battle Group sent a request for reinforcements."
"The Fourth Fleet, the 35th Air Wing, and the 2nd Bomber Squadron are close to the cordon in terms of ammunition consumption, and they are requested to return to the home for supplies."
"The Second Fleet, the 17th Air Wing is replenished and the take-off procedure begins."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Wait, what did I hear just now?" Ian always felt that he had just heard a strange order. ββ¦β¦ Assist in defense? β
Clicking on the information of the Macross Fortress World, Ian and the staff officers next to him came down in a cold sweat.
"2 colonies and 6 large colony ships reported the code "Winter is coming", asking for as many fleet support as possible. An hour after a colony ship regiment issued a "winter is coming", it sent a code message "Winter is urgent", and now the main island is seriously damaged, and in the emergency repair, the escort fleet is gradually disengaging from contact with the Jetratikan fleet while fighting and withdrawing. β
"Winter in a hurry? Winter is coming? Ian looked confused.
"The new unified government's emergency code order customized for the recent abnormal activity of the Jetratikan fleet, if the following conditions are met, the code "Winter Emergency" can be sent if the first two items are met.
1. The intercepted Jetratikan fleet communication clearly mentions the name of a certain planet or colonial fleet.
2. Finding conclusive physical evidence of the activities of the Jetatiki fleet.
3. The discovery of unregistered remnants of directed energy weapon shots or substances of similar nature to them in an area.
4. Multiple jump signals have been detected that do not belong to the Ministry of Integration or the New United Army.
5. Engage the fleet of the Jetatikigan fleet.
After sending the code "Winter Emergency", all information about the location of the Earth, Eden and other colonial stars must be deleted, all classified documents must be deleted, and the ship's central computer is absolutely not allowed to be captured. β
"The situation is already in jeopardy?" Ian read the instructions and continued to read the information. "It has been found that now the 11 100,000-ship Jetrati Cadre Fleet is purposefully searching for the New Unified Colony and the Colonial Fleet, of which MACROSS39 ship group was attacked by the detachment of about 10,000 Jetrati ships, and after paying a heavy price, the fleet disengaged from contact with the Jetrati fleet. 4 million-ship fleets roaming around the territory of the New United Army. It seems that there is a planned invasion of the territory of the new unified government. β
"Addendum 1: Support from the Vajra side has been contacted, and the Vajra army will return to the galaxy within a month."
"Addendum 2: The Department has been notified that the 9th through 16th fleets of the Department of Integration will be reinforcing the new United Army."
"Addendum 3: The new unified government has entered a wartime state, and the satellite factory is fully engaged in the production of new generation warships, VF-25 fighter jets, and ship-response bombs. Each regiment reserves as much conventional ammunition as possible on its own. The Frontier Ship Group, the Galactic Ship Group, and Eden Star are in full production of MDE warheads. β
"Looks like there's going to be a moth over there......" Ian took two sips of happy water and was shocked. The orderly withdrawal of combat units from the world of Macross and the withdrawal of the 12th cruiser battle group and the battle of the Catelanis fleet began to carry out the escort mission of the aircraft carrier. Order the fleet to speed up the process of destroying the enemy fleet, put all reserves into it, and annihilate the opponent in one go. Were there any captures on the ships equipped with the energy delivery system? β
"Now, the commando team led by Captain Rex and the commando team led by Master Windu have suppressed a suspected Migaruda-class prototype ship, which is being recovered."
"Very well, after the recovery is completed, the ship carrying the sample will immediately leave the battlefield."
"Report, the Iskandar battleship group has arrived on the battlefield and is attacking."
Fourteen hours after Zoda hung up the communication, Catelandis' fleet was divided and annihilated.
During the battle, all parties wanted to capture some samples of the battleship of the Gatrantis for analysis, mainly because everyone was interested in the shaft gun, known as the flaming gun, and the rotary cannon.
Especially in terms of encryption, the single-shot power of the large rotary cannon is no worse than the 330 mm long-barreled positive electron cannon that encrypted Rus is developing, the rate of fire is extremely fast, and the accuracy is also higher than that of the new long-barreled cannon, and the positive electron beam rate is actually in such a short gun body, and the convergence rate achieved is higher than that of the 330 mm positive electron shock gun used by ordinary heavy cruisers.
The anti-aircraft gun that turned around was also fatal in terms of air defense efficiency, and in this battle the aviation forces and anti-ship missiles suffered a big loss in this. Nearly 80 percent of the aviation units were shot down by the anti-aircraft reversing guns with both speed of fire and accuracy.
Although it is said that the newly built fleet will be equipped with a new type of naval gun called "shock cannon" newly developed by the Technology Development Bureau.
Ian, who had been sitting in the captain's chair for 15 hours, stood up and moved his stiff body.
"Next, the fleet was repaired on the spot. Let the logistics fleet enter, after this level of fighting, there should be a lot of ships with insufficient reserves of nano-matter. As Ian spoke, he saw a hunter with only two-thirds of the hull left, swaying along with the other ships in the formation towards the assembly area.
"Organize a team of Porters to go to Earth and touch a human to come up......"
"No, not really. There is a country called the Republic of Zarus under the Cryptolars Empire, and there is not much difference between the humans of that country and the earthlings. Moreover, I suspect that it only takes the presence of three or more Aquarius descendants at the same time for the seal of this ark to be lifted. Ritsuko boarded the bridge after the battle.
Well...... Brand new bridge ......
One hour before the end of the battle, the Enterprise was hit by 4 flame rifles at the same time, the hull resisted, the bridge did not, and two-thirds of the bridge structure from top to bottom was melted down. Now the surface of the ship is full of dark red lines, and green smoke is emitting from it.
And now the surface of the hull is still being rebuilt with armor, and the hangar gate, missile launcher gate, turret, etc. have been melted down and welded to the adjacent structure.
Originally, Ian and the others wanted to teleport to the Silent Star to continue to unseal the Aquarius ruins, but all the sensors on the surface of the hull were finished, and none of the transmitted signals could be scanned.
