Chapter 328: Encountering Old Acquaintances in a Foreign Country
Freya leaned into his arms, her little face flushed, and a few drops of sweat hung on her forehead. She was asleep, like a tired kitten sleeping on a cushion, with a few drops of saliva on the corners of her mouth, and she didn't know what she was dreaming of.
After giving the navigation instructions to Nurse MM, Tang Fang shifted his gaze to the scattered wreckage of the battleship outside the porthole. Despite Emma's analysis, he was amazed by the Corruptor and Wyvern's combat prowess.
At the beginning, Emma's combat power evaluation report was based on the one-on-one heads-up mode, and the results of the calculation were calculated by comparing the performance of all aspects of the two sides to the increase in attack power.
In this battle, he invested a total of 396 air units, including 78 Corruptors, 60 Wyverns, and 60 Viking fighters. In the face of the 160 naval warships that survived the "Fog of Death" incident, they only paid 5 Wyverns, 2 Corrupters, and 3 Viking fighters as a price, and they were stunned to wipe out all Meredith's troops, knowing that the government army alone had 10 cruiser-class warships, 43 destroyers, and more than 170 frigates and reconnaissance ships. Such a record, if placed on the side of the empire, is enough to become famous in one battle, and it will be famous in history. It has to be said that the environment, formation, morale and other factors have an immeasurable impact on a war.
The Zerg vacated 14 units, and he simply replenished them all as Corruptors. Today's air power includes 83 Corruptors, 55 Wyverns, 83 Viking fighters, and 15 Iron Jays.
If it is not a dangerous battle, it is necessary to hide clumsiness, as can be seen from the combination of warships and individual equipment dispatched by the military this time, before the operation. The Navy's staff system had done its homework in advance, if it hadn't been for the fact that the Corruptor had never been used before. The flying dragon also hid and covered, and only showed his side slightly when attacking the 289th Division, I am afraid that this battle will not be won so smoothly.
"Iron Crow......" Tang Fang muttered to himself, turning his head and glancing in the direction of the Twin Star Harbors, "My high-level Templar hasn't used it yet." ”
……
When Tang Fang and Freya were riding in the Starlink III shuttle heading towards Rector, a shootout was being staged in Sylbes Starport.
Dense gunfire was heard from Area A, where the administration was located. Occasionally, a few explosions will be heard.
In the past month, the whole Sylbes Starport has been in a mess, all kinds of rich people, foreign merchants, noble families, etc., all those who have a few money in their hands and are nervous have flocked to the Sylbes Starport, as for the purpose, they all plan to leave Lector and find a safe place to avoid the limelight.
In this world, there are bold and reckless men, and there are cowardly cowards. Although the Rector government has repeatedly stressed that the situation has stabilized and that the rebel forces are gradually disintegrating, most people still have an attitude of believing that such a matter is related to their lives rather than believing it.
The Garcia rebels have long been hacked by the government's hype, although a large part of the population is skeptical. However, in the eyes of the elite, they are definitely a flood beast. So. As long as you have enough money, you don't have to worry about food and clothing. Or they belong to a vested interest group, all of them are in fear, thinking about how to escape from the dark tide of Lector.
As Lector's throat to the outside world, the twin star ports play a pivotal role in the Megal star system, and Silbero is a military port that houses Rector's naval fleet. The Silbes Starport is a civilian starport. It is responsible for multiple responsibilities such as freight, passenger transportation, and customs.
The rich dragged their families and left their hometowns, naturally with sad faces, but the management of Xinggang was smiling and smiling. For noble families. They don't have the courage to offend, but those rich and self-employed businessmen are like fragrant dumplings smeared with honey and fresh cheese dipped in sugar, and they all want a piece of the pie.
If they want to prevent them from leaving, the relevant departments have 10,000 ways, not to mention that in this sensitive period, their behavior can be said to be distrustful of the government and ignoring the call of the Governor.
As a result, a large number of people without aristocratic status can only stay on the space station, bribe the customs officers with money and friendship, and patiently wait for the moment of release. In just one month, the customs has made a lot of money.
As the largest, most important, and only civilian port in Rector, Silbes is large in size, resembling two screws with their heads close together. It is 17 kilometers long, and the diameter of the central part is eight or nine kilometers. If you add some ancillary living facilities in the surrounding area, Silbes is a small and medium-sized city, including many large shopping malls, shopping malls, hotels and other livelihood facilities.
Due to the excessive number of people stranded in the past month, the merchants of Xinggang have also made a lot of money.
Although the Sylbes Starport is a civilian starport, mainly for foreign merchants and Lector people, there are few garrisons, only some police and small security forces of the navy, but this does not mean that it has no protection capabilities.
In addition to the living facilities platform, there are also a certain number of space-based defense weapons, a heavy missile platform for Star War, a solar laser turret, a long-range plasma gun, and various types of projectile turrets.
After leveling Quentin Island, the Tang side set its sights on Lancelot in Silbero Starport. He said that he would make the young duke pay for his blood debts!
After eating 124 warships of the Meredith Division of the Lector Navy in "Sigma", there are only about 300 ships left in the Lector Navy today, and in addition to some of the maintenance and overhaul in the military port, there are only more than 270 ships that can form combat effectiveness. With the air force units in his hands, if he can take the opponent by surprise and catch the opponent off guard, it is absolutely possible to win the Ryctor Navy.
"Sigma" is just one part of a series of plans planned and implemented by the Tang side, if it exchanges fire with the naval fleet near the military port of Silbero, a large number of manned defense facilities on the periphery will pose a huge threat to the air force units of the insect and human races.
And, once the battle heats up and the two sides kill Red-Eyed, God knows if Lancelot's deranged bastard will mobilize the defenses of Silbes Starport.
Tang Fang is not like him, who can ignore civilian casualties. Therefore, when raiding "Sigma" and beating Meredith's naval fleet, he gave an order to Tang Lin, Bai Hao and others who had infiltrated Silbes.
This time, he was determined to bury the entire Rector Navy. Let the Duke of Yadan feel distressed for a while, and let Lancelot not die well.
The "Fog of Death" on the periphery of "Sigma" would cut off communications, and the news of Meredith's total annihilation would never reach Lancelot's ears for a while.
If Silbes riots during this time, another group of rebels will raid the Area A administration unit and take over the entire starport. What will the Rector Navy do? Lord Lord can only choose to suppress the rebellion before the rebels can completely control the defense system of Starport.
"Sigma" appeared on the Tang side. "Silbes" appeared Tang Lin, and Lancelot would not give up this opportunity to wipe out the rebels.
At that time, if the mixed air force of the human and insect races suddenly kills, what will be the result?
While still on the ground, Tang Convenience had already begun to calculate the Lector Navy, with his current combat strength that was not enough to directly crush the Imperial Army, he had to use special means to achieve his goal.
Lancelot has some information about the units on the ground, but that doesn't mean he has insight into all the functions of the Interstellar 2 system.
……
The people who launched a surprise attack on the Silbes Starport were Tang Lin, Roy, Bai Hao, Aros, Grant, and Hausen. and a mixed force of ghosts, mechanical sentinels, machine gunners, zealots, and puppies.
With the help of the Mechanical Sentinel's illusion ability, evading the Navy's security system is naturally a piece of cake.
Ghost hides in various important sections of the Starport, and after the Tang side sends an action order, the ghost who carried out the assassination mission immediately kills the person in charge of the Starport and his henchmen. At the same time, the maneuverable puppies and fanatics quickly entered the management of Area A, dropped the floodgates, and launched a surprise attack on the police station and the naval garrison headquarters in Silbes Starport.
Roy, Bai Hao, Claire, Valentine, and some of the machine gunners were sent by Aros to evacuate the civilians, which made Bai Hao very depressed. Compared to the copycat Alex, he doesn't want to be a hero. He just wanted to kill all the powerful people in it who counted the money and had cramps.
However, the veteran's status in the group is somewhat special, and he belongs to the veteran level, except for Tang Fang, he is the most authoritative. Even if he was unwilling, Bai Hao could only do it.
In fact, he didn't want to care about those who stayed here. Most of them are merchants, or rich people who are related to this and that official, this noble, that noble, and the poor, are all in Lector.
But you can't just watch them die. After all, according to the boss's plan, there will be a bad battle in the next Silbes. Lancelot could ignore it in order to get rid of the Empire's enemies, but they couldn't.
Therefore, he can only accept his fate.
Evacuating the stranded people in Starport is not an easy job, these rich people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and value their lives more than anything else, almost didn't pee their pants when they learned that there were rebels mixed into Starport.
From the living quarters, to the shopping street, to the inner harbor, the whole Sylbes Star Port is in chaos. Thankfully, however, the machine gunners acted decisively, and after firing a few limp guys jumping up and down, the passenger terminal facing the interior of Lector finally fell silent.
The machine gunners are not as talkative as Roy, these guys in iron armor and cold are like a ruthless killing machine, whether they are facing star scholars or beautiful women, they all treat them equally, and they are indifferent and intimidating.
In such a situation, the usually pampered rich people finally got honest, obediently entered the atmospheric shuttle, and were transported back to the interior of Lecto.
With the transportation capacity of Silbes Star Port, it will only take about 20 minutes to arrange for tens of thousands of people to leave. However, there were so many people pouring into the starport during this time that even if all the passenger shuttles were dispatched, it would be difficult to evacuate the more than 100,000 people in the starport in a short time.
Claire consulted with Valentine and decided to use the cargo shuttles to get the more than 100,000 men back inland before the naval fleet was overwhelmed.
However, something unexpected happened, there was an extra team of more than 700 marines in the Silbes Starport, and they were not stationed in the management of Area A, but scattered in the living area, commercial area, outer harbor dock and other places, which was very different from the number of starport defenses provided by Emma.
It turned out that after Lancelot learned that Tang Fang and the others were not dead, and that he had dropped 3 fusion warheads on Quentin Island, he was as wise as him, and not only used the navy's reconnaissance ship to dive into the Lector atmosphere, but also conducted a 24-hour non-stop search. It also ordered an elite armed force to enter the Sylbes Star Port, cooperate with the original garrison force, and increase the security check of the Star Port to deal with possible smuggling by the rebels.
After the destruction of various types of space-based unmanned platforms, Emma's information collection ability was severely damaged, and she could only rely on the data collected before to provide support for the Tang side. Inevitably, something will go wrong.
The Marines didn't expect that a small group of rebels would dare to blatantly mess around the Sylbes Starport, after all, the Starport is not as big as the inland, it is only so big, once the rebels show up, it means that they will turn from darkness to light, which will give the Lord a chance to launch a fatal blow.
As a result, when Tang Lin, Aros and others launched a lightning raid, the marines who were scattered around the Star Harbor for vigilance patrols did not react for a while.
The management of Area A is isolated. When Bai Hao, Roy and the others were trying their best to evacuate the stranded people in Starport, the Marines were finally gathered by their commanders.
The commander, who had a strong view of the overall situation and was able and resolute, gave them a very "wise and powerful" order: "Whatever the purpose of the rebels is, it must be unfavorable to the military, and they must be held back and disrupted by their rhythm, as long as the Lector naval fleet forms an encirclement network, these ground rats will not escape." ”
Next. These marines who can fight are accustomed to fighting cameo roles of Tang Fang and others, and really become ground rats.
The reconnaissance, attack, and interception platforms around the Silbes military port have response control nodes in all districts of the star port. Because the management of Area A is engaged in a fierce exchange of fire, judging from the strength invested by the rebels and the individual combat effectiveness provided by the General Staff, it is only a matter of time before the Xinggang Control Center falls into the hands of the rebels.
If Starport falls and is completely controlled by the rebels, the Rector naval fleet that has rushed to reinforce it will inevitably be exposed to the guns of the defenses around Starport. Causing heavy losses. If you want to avoid this from happening, there is only one way, blow up the control nodes, disconnect the links between the various weapon platforms and the central system, and disarm the starport defense force.
I have to say. The commander of this Marine Corps did have some cleverness, but he overlooked one thing, there were still a lot of stranded people in the starport, when the dull explosion sound spread all over the starport, the soles of the feet shook slightly, and the firelight illuminated the dark void outside the porthole, the people who were still in order and were waiting to evacuate the starport were completely panicked.
At this moment, Marine Corps Commander Malachi? Keith's squad of soldiers blew up the cargo shuttle. They thought that this would organize the rebels to leave, and the next thing the navy had to do was to catch the turtle in the urn.
Of course, there are plenty of escape pods available in Starport, but those single-person escape facilities are equipped with signal tracking equipment, and once in the Lector atmosphere, the Army Search and Rescue Team will be dispatched to rescue those who have fallen inland.
You must know that those rebel leaders are "on the list" in the military, and falling into the hands of the search and rescue team is no less than killing themselves.
Malachi's hand-to-hand salary is indeed a beautiful play in a certain way, and as a commander, he is really qualified. It's just that he didn't expect that the behavior of the Marine Corps did not bluff Claire and Bai Hao, but frightened the stranded people in Star Harbor.
In the face of the rebels, they were already afraid, afraid that these rebellious ministers and thieves would kill them with a knife, but in the subsequent evacuation operation, it was proved that the rebels were not malicious, so they relaxed a little. At this time, the explosion came from under their feet, and the sound of gunfire rang out in the living quarters, cargo terminals, and commercial areas, and they were completely panicked, ignoring the shouts of Claire and Valentine, and even ignoring the warnings of the machine gunners, and ran towards the emergency evacuation passages in various areas of the star harbor.
"The battle is about to start, the real battle is about to start, the emergency evacuation channel is connected to the escape system of the star port, as long as you enter the escape pod, you can be rescued."
"Quick, run, it would be bad if you were caught up in the battle for Starport."
“……”
"Alas!" Valentine sighed heavily, after experiencing the Wendenbart tragedy, there were a few more wrinkles on his old face, "These marines are really not successful enough, and they are more than defeated. ”
Claire shook her head as well: "It's a good idea to go back inland from the escape pod. ”
"What about those Marines?" Bai Hao asked.
After exchanging opinions with Aros and Grant, Claire turned to the three of them and ordered: "Uncle Valentine, you and Roy should bring a few machine gunners to maintain order, so that those people will not have disputes or even death or injury over the snatching of the escape pod." ”
"Bai Hao, you and I are responsible for dealing with the Marines."
"Okay." Valentin nodded, and together with Roy, he followed behind the crowd with 12 machine gunners and ran towards the nearest emergency evacuation route.
Claire and Bai Hao split up, with the girl going to deal with Malachi at the cargo dock and Bai Hao going to deal with the demolition team.
Xinggang is very large, so big that it can run at full speed with "Ma Runjia", and it will take more than ten minutes from beginning to end, but the goal of the demolition team is to control the nodes of Xinggang, as long as they wait for the rabbit, they can catch this group of troublemakers.
After separating from Claire in Area B, Bai Hao led 48 machine gunners to the control node in the outer ring of Area C.
In addition to the functions of setting up a weapon system network, collecting the operating parameters of each subsystem, distributing power and energy, and monitoring regional anomalies, the control nodes of each district of Xinggang are also responsible for the regulation and control of systems such as escape, oxygen supply, air conditioning, and pressurization.
Of course, because the starport is very large and there are many sub-modules, a few control nodes are not enough to support the operation of the entire starport system. Therefore, there are many sub-control nodes under the control nodes, and a huge control network is formed according to the structure of "central computer - each district control node - sub-control node".
According to the direction from which the explosion came, Area C will be the next target of the Marine Corps demolition team, because there are as many as 8 "sub-control nodes" in Area C, after weighing it, Bai Hao walked straight into the monitoring room of the control node in Area C, and called up the surveillance images of Area C, and when the real-time images recorded by the C-107 and C-109 probes appeared in front of him, his face couldn't help but change.
……
"Yingluo, take it inside."
"No, sister, I'll go with you." She struggled to get out of the escape pod.
Linglong zipped up the spacesuit and quickly pressed the "lock" button on the escape pod.
"......Snort" The hatch slowly closed, and Yingluo slammed a pair of pink fists against the transparent glass window in the center of the hatch, opening and closing her small mouth, not knowing what she was saying loudly.
The sealing performance of the escape pod is very good, even if Yingluo shouts loudly inside, the sound of the fixed point cannot be heard outside.
"Yingluo, I said I would protect you, even if it took my life." Linglong glanced at her sister in the escape pod lovingly, stroked her five fingers over the glass window, then gritted her teeth and turned her head to walk outside.
After leaving the "Scarlet Gate", the two sisters hid in Tibet, endured many hardships, and finally found someone who could help them forge their identities, leave the Monya Empire, and return to the United Kingdom of Turanx.
Of course, in exchange, the two sisters had to hand over the 200,000 MYD they got from Tang Fang.
As long as they can go home, nothing outside the body is worth anything, so the two sisters went to the Silbes Star Port under the leadership of the so-called "brother-in-law of the nanny of the director of the Lector Customs Administration".
After arranging for the two to stay in a small hotel in the living area, the Arab man asked them to wait slowly, citing the need for time to clear up the relationship. Who knows that this is nearly a month. During this period, the men took 180,000 MYD from them one after another to bribe customs officials.
At the beginning, the man also introduced them to several civil servants from the customs department, which made Linglong and Yingluo feel relieved and think that they had found the right way. However, it turns out that there are far fewer good people in this world, and there are no honest businessmen. In recent days, men have often brought some men with fleshy faces and violent bodies to visit them, and reassure them with kind words that they will wait a few more days, saying that the director will be back soon.
Although Linglong and Yingluo are young, the two poor girls suffer much more than ordinary people. The traumatic experience of the "Blood Gate" is unbearable for them to look back on, but it also teaches them a skill - the ability to distinguish whether the person in front of them is a gangster. (To be continued......)
