Chapter 19: The First Battle

In the air defense formation, the frigates defend the mothership in a ring shape. Although the trade alliance's fleet firepower is weakened, it can also effectively protect the safety of the mothership.

The large group of aircraft on the Cyrus and the frigates took off quickly from the various battleships and swarmed towards the Bayeran fighters, soon entering the engagement distance.

"Sir, our army has already engaged in an exchange of fire with the Bayeran fighters!"

"Send only 20 carrier-based aircraft to deal with us, is Bayeran's space fleet hiding nearby? Order all ships to intensify the search!" Commodore Caron Katz was still very wary of the Bayeran capital ships, after all, the high-speed assault of battle cruisers and heavy cruisers could pose a direct threat to weakly defended escort carriers.

Once glued to the capital ship, the escort carrier, which is inferior in speed and firepower, is likely to be unable to take out the well-protected battlecruiser until it is sunk.

However, radar detection did not show any signal from the enemy ship. In the vast starry sky, it seems that there are really only a few dozen fighters fighting each other.

"We've been attacking for 15 minutes," the intelligence officer of the Cyrus monitored the battlefield according to the regulations, and was suddenly startled, "I ...... Our fighter ...... We were shot down 14 of them! ”

"What!" Kalon Kaz was taken aback, "What's going on?" ”

"We are disrupted, sir, the information is in chaos, our carrier-based aircraft formation is already in a rout!" The intelligence officer's face turned pale, "Everyone is asking for help!" There was chaos ahead. ”

"Find out! Are you all first-day recruits? Brigadier General Kahlon Katz shouted angrily, and then thought for a moment and gave the order, "The carrier-based aircraft retreated to the formation and entered the air defense circle of the fleet. Bring me the commander of the sortie carrier-based aircraft! ”

"Contact Captain Ains of the 2nd Air Force to inform them of the retreat and report the situation." The bridge officer of the Cyrus quickly sent out a communication.

"Captain Ains was shot down, I'm Lieutenant Ou Qin, let's retreat!" The officers contacted hurriedly reported the alarming situation.

"Lieutenant, report on the battle, what's going on?" Brigadier General Kahlon Katz also didn't expect the commander of the sortie to be killed so quickly, and at the same time turned around and ordered, "The air force will send another 20 warplanes to cover the fleet." ”

"I don't know, General," Lieutenant Ou Qin said in a panicked tone, "not long after we started fighting with Bayeran, the signal on the battlefield was severely disrupted, and our radar may have failed. Our fighters, who clearly had no enemy nearby, were killed one after another in a short period of time. ”

"Maybe Bayeran has developed some new weapon," Brigadier General Kalon Kaz nodded.

"General, the radar has spotted a formation of Bayerland carrier-based attack aircraft, numbering 20, which is rushing towards this fleet!"

The officers and soldiers on the bridge fell silent. Since the beginning of the war, the fleets of the Trade Alliance, which had been in an overwhelming position, suddenly fell into an air combat disadvantage and a formation of carrier-based attack aircraft appeared, and everyone became nervous.

"It's just a carrier-based aircraft, don't panic." Kalon Kaz snorted, "Carrier-based aircraft can't break through our air defense circle. If the Bayeran battleships and others also come, we will crush them with several times the number of attack aircraft. ”

Having said that, Kalon Kaz felt an indescribable unease and tension in his heart. The abnormal battle situation made him feel that there were some kind of conspiracy and traps hidden here.

The nearest Trade Alliance fleet would only take three hours to come to support, which would normally be enough......

Xiao Yan piloted the landline to drop an assault gun that had run out of ammunition and took over the additional proton torpedo launcher carried by the carrier-based aircraft squadron. Pull up sharply towards the dome of space. In three-dimensional space, each unit's perception and combat are spherical. Although there is no concept of up, down, left and right in the universe, in order to facilitate understanding and command, everyone is still accustomed to using concepts such as dome, ball bottom, left arc and right arc to mark directions.

According to the plan, after relying on the performance and stealth advantage of the pursuer to repel the interceptor fighters in the short assault just now, Bayeran's fleet will make a surprise attack on the Trade Alliance fleet. At the same time, Xiao Yan launched a blow to the flagship from another direction.

He had two heavy anti-ship proton torpedoes in his hands, which were so powerful that a single hit could seriously damage a light cruiser. However, this thing is too heavy and has an obvious signal, and under normal circumstances, long-range launches will be easily intercepted by fleet anti-aircraft fire.

"It's still too risky," Sonia sat on the bridge of the Burrenshire, hidden in the distance, her fingers clasped together, watching the message from the battlefield uneasily, "If something happens, we can't even provide support." ”

"Don't worry!" Captain Ophelia said, "If you're unlucky enough to be hit, Knight Griffith just needs to surrender, and we, the strongest commando in the universe, will be responsible for rescuing him!" ”

Sonia almost rolled her eyes. However, this plan was proposed by Xiao Yan himself, and it is of great significance to the overall situation.

Yes, what Xiao Yan said to her privately after formulating tactics was: "The goal this time is not one or two warships, but to use this attack to shake the rules of war in the entire universe!" ”

The stalker's fuselage was shaking violently...... It's like a tractor that's been around for decades. The dense cabin indicator lights will turn on one after another, and from time to time there will be an annoying alarm sound.

"Warning, navigation glitch, error 306."

"Warning, Interaction Unit Failure, Error 401."

Xiao Yan didn't even know what these prompts and signals meant, so he turned off the prompts with a casual glance. He hadn't been around the mobile suit in development for long, and he wasn't familiar with the meaning of many of the settings...... And he was skeptical that the maintenance team, or even Professor Emrath himself, was clear.

But so what!

It is an epoch-making weapon tailored for the space battlefield with an all-round lead in perception, maneuverability, firepower and defense of existing carrier-based aircraft, and also has the stealth effect brought about by N neutron interference.

If Xiao Yan was worried that his extraordinary ability and strengthening his body would not have much effect in the cosmic war at the beginning, now he no longer has this worry.

The unsophisticated design and maintenance of the Mobile Suit means that he is currently the only one who can withstand the rigors of the driving environment, and the Stalker's outstanding combat performance even gives him a chance to turn the tide of battle on his own.

"Hint, the pursuer is about to arrive at the intended assault position." The body, which was still shaking violently just now, gradually slowed down, and hundreds of jets installed on the fuselage worked together to stabilize the posture of the fuselage.

The pursuers, who had several times the speed of traditional carrier-based aircraft, arrived at the dome of the battlefield, and the moving trade alliance fleets were almost arranged in a circle below Xiao Yan, and the carrier-based aircraft forces that had just been repulsed had not even withdrawn.

There was only a dark vacuum around Xiao Yan, and neither the enemy nor his own people knew the location of the pursuer at this moment.

"Okay, then ......" Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief and checked the status of the proton torpedo.

The pursuer swooped down and slammed into the ignorant Cyrus fleet of the Trade Alliance.

"According to the combat mastery scheme, the Stalker will increase its power output from 60% to 70%."

The on-board AI simply reported the status, and Xiao Yan felt the vibration under the seat become more and more violent. The engine room shook as if it were about to fall apart, and the heat of the engine spread, turning the cabin red.

Xiao Yan felt that he was sweating all over his body, and his heart was beating so fast that he almost jumped out of his throat. The murmur that had been just lingering in my ears became clear, like some kind of creature whispering softly.

"This feeling!"

In the period when he first started to accelerate, Xiao Yan almost fainted. It wasn't until the power prompt reached 70% that he felt better, but he was still in a feeling that life was worse than death.

Xiao Yan grinned in discomfort, and blood poured out on his head. The pursuer headed head-on towards the steel giant.

The Trade Alliance's flagship, the Cyrus, grew larger and larger, and finally filled Xiao Yan's field of vision like a giant floating doughnut.

It's like you're about to crash into a battleship next!

The tension, load and acceleration made Xiao Yan's whole person enter an extreme state of excitement. His eyes were red and he had almost lost his ability to think, but the whole fleet was still unknown to him.

"This feeling!" Xiao Yan, who was extremely fast, couldn't open his mouth to speak at all, but just shouted in his heart.

"It's so hilarious!"

Xiao Yan pressed the launch button like lightning, and in that moment of lightning, he could even see the officers walking on the bridge of the huge escort aircraft carrier.

The proton torpedo did not even need to fly, and slammed into the armor of the Cyrus at high speed with its face. 166 Reading Network
