Chapter 426: Battle Breaks Out

"Bang...... Boom...... Bang ......" With the rhythmic roar of the Gauss defensive artillery, the battle officially began.

As a fixed installation of large defensive guns, the firepower of the Gauss defense platform is quite powerful, its only drawback is that it cannot move, and the steering is slow, but once it locks on to the target, then even a cruiser will not be able to withstand several rounds of blows of this magnitude!

......The destroyer that was attacked by the Gauss defense platform immediately shook violently!

"Boss! We are under attack! The pirate captain reported the news to the regimental commander, Elvin Kula.

Elvin Kula, formerly known as Elvin Chandler, is a side child of the Chandler family, and is also an officer who graduated from the Federal Naval Academy, and has had a smooth life in the Federal Navy, and has been on the rise along the way.

But after receiving the order from his family, he immediately left the federal navy and disappeared from the world! Since then, Colonel Elwin Chandler has ceased to exist and has been replaced by the great pirate Erwin Kula!

"Since they don't know each other, let's give them something to be quiet!" Elvin Kula sneered, and then he ordered, "The Minotaur will advance and take over the Caveman to take on enemy fire!" The Harpy unleashes four Flogger heavy missiles to attack the Gauss defense platform! ”

"Yes!" As soon as the pirates received the order, they sprang into action, a heavy cruiser advanced in front of the previously attacked destroyer, and a missile frigate in the rear began to launch a counterattack.

"Whoosh...... Four heavy whipper missiles dragged a long wake straight towards the Gauss defense platform.

Because the Gauss defense platform does not have any ability to move, and it does not have air defense capabilities, the probability of being hit by a missile is extremely high!

"The remaining squadron of unmanned fighters is dispatched! Intercept these four missiles! Han Yihang's order was also issued quickly.

The drones in the previous two UAV hangars were two squadrons of fighters and bombers, and at the request of Han Yihang, one of the UAV hangars sealed an unmanned fighter squadron and turned to produce bombers, but the other hangar still reserved an unmanned fighter squadron.

Although these relatively small drones are not equipped with missiles and cluster bombs, only two cannons, which are useless against warships, they can play an important role in intercepting drones and missiles.

"Whoosh...... a squadron of nine unmanned fighters rushed out of the hangar platform and headed straight for the four heavy missiles in front.

After a dozen seconds, the swarm of drones encountered four missiles, and while the four Flogger missiles were the fastest and most maneuverable of all the missiles, they were still too cumbersome when faced with more agile drones.

The cannon of the "Da ......" unmanned fighter opened fire, although this small firepower is not enough to break through the armored shell of the battleship, but when it hits the body of the missile, it can still turn them into a sieve in an instant!

"Boom!" A Flogger heavy missile was blown up in the air!

"Boom, boom, boom ......" was followed by the remaining three missiles, all of which were intercepted.

"Bang...... Boom...... Bang ...... "The two Gauss defensive guns are still firing rhythmically, and the shells of this heavy weapon are almost catching up with the main guns of the battleship, and the power is very terrifying, even a heavy cruiser can't carry it all the time!"

"Big brother, find a way! I won't be able to hold this shield for long! The captain of the Minotaur shouted loudly, once the shield was destroyed, the damage of the kinetic Gauss guns to the armor of the battleship was very terrifying, and under the fierce blow of this kind of artillery fire, even the heavy patrol could not hold out for a few rounds.

"I see." Erwin frowned, although he had served in the federal army, but the federation has been unified for more than a hundred years, and no civilization other than human beings has been found externally, so the meaning of the existence of the federal navy is more to explore and suppress bandits and quell chaos.

They have never really attacked a planet with a complete defense system, and after becoming pirates, Erwin and them are also active in the Ollis system, where there are many pirates and they are constantly fighting each other, but no pirate has established a complete orbital defense system.

So in today's battle, Elwin was able to light up the enemy, he thought that it would not be difficult to clean up a fleet of the Keha system, after all, his fleet was seven times the size of the other party, but he ignored the defense system of Labotan.

"It seems that today is not going to work without paying a price!" Erwin shook his heart, and then said in a cold voice: "Let today's battle be counted in the annals of history, the first time in the history of the Earth Federation that a fleet has captured a planet!" ”

"Concentrate all your firepower and destroy those three Gauss defense platforms for me!" Erwin gave the order.

However, Erwin obviously overlooked a point, in the history of the Earth Federation, there is indeed no precedent for a fleet to attack the planetary defense system, but hundreds of years ago, there was a famous saying on the earth: warships should not be delusional and bombarded fortresses.

Under Erwin's orders, the pirate fleet adjusted its formation slightly, and then poured all its firepower on the three Gauss defensive platforms.

Although missiles can be intercepted, there is no way to do this kind of artillery drones fired by the main guns of warships, these things are not only fast and small, but also too many in number, and it is impossible to completely intercept them.

The Gauss defensive cannon is fixed and cannot be maneuvered to dodge, so it can only rely on shields and armor to carry the attack.

Although the hit rate of the automatic artillery was relatively low, the shields of the three Gauss guns were quickly wiped out under the hit and fire of the entire fleet, and the outer armor of the three Gauss defensive guns was beaten all over the body, but even so, the three heavy guns never stopped attacking.......

"Whoosh......"

"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

At this time, the group of unmanned bombers broke into the formation of the pirate fleet, although the bombers were larger than the fighters, carried heavier ammunition, and could not make the same agile maneuvers as the fighters, but compared to the warships, they were still much faster.

The drones, armed with cluster bombs and light missiles, attacked as soon as they approached the pirate fleet.

"Boom, boom, boom......" high-explosive cluster bombs detonated around the pirate warships, and the bombed pirate warships shook violently, and many crew members were seriously injured in unguarded situations.

After a few rounds of attacks, the shields of the two pirate frigates were broken, although the size of these bombers is small, and the weapons they carry are not particularly powerful, but you can't stand the number of these bombers, a squadron is nine bombers, and the bombers of three and a half squadrons bomb around the two frigates, which no one can stand it!
