Chapter 422: A Moment of Despair
"Dr. Allen, the speed of that alien fleet has not changed, maybe they don't know that we exist in this galaxy, they may just be passing by."
"Richard, the speed of the voyage has not changed, which means that the alien fleet will arrive as scheduled, so we can evacuate more calmly and will not meet them."
Dr. Allen breathed a sigh of relief, the evacuation plan had been implemented for nine days, but the feeling of unrest in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, so he kept guarding the observation equipment, for fear that the alien fleet would have a higher speed and suddenly accelerate towards him.
"Dr. Allen, didn't you keep saying you wanted to make contact with aliens? Why did your suggestion to the Federation this time turn out to be an immediate escape? Richard asked, looking at the doctor in surprise.
After knowing the doctor for so many years, I have always known how much Dr. Allen wants to get in touch with alien civilizations, so he has thoroughly studied and improved all kinds of observation equipment, and wants to use these equipment to detect aliens as soon as possible.
Who would have thought that after Dr. Allen really discovered the fleet of alien civilizations with this improved equipment, he actually proposed an evacuation plan to the federal government.
Dr. Allen sighed: "Our Federation fleet is too weak, and facing such an alien civilization fleet of nearly a thousand warships is simply a piece of meat in their mouths, so let's hide as far as we can." ”
Richard saw the image of the alien fleet in the observation system, which became clear as the distance approached, and this was indeed not a behemoth that the Federation fleet could touch rashly.
With this in mind, Richard once again operated the observation system to observe the fleet of alien civilizations that were already close to the star system.
Dr. Allen stepped aside and prepared to make himself a cup of coffee, which was now very rare, and only a small area was arranged in the life-level spaceship for cultivation, which belonged to the luxury of the Federation.
It was given to him by General Fresnel, and it was a small reward.
He had just brewed the coffee, took a sip of it, took it in his mouth, and was about to swallow it when Richard suddenly let out an exclamation, "Oh my God! There is also an alien fleet, coming from the other direction, only 3 astronomical units away from us. ”
This exclamation made Alan choke suddenly, but Alan didn't care about the discomfort in his throat, coughed sharply, and rushed to Richard to check the terminal display of the observation system in front of him.
Sure enough, a fleet appeared on it, and the image was very clear, after all, it was much closer than the previous fleet.
At this time, through calculations, the observation system has already given the number of warships in the alien civilization fleet in the picture, and there are 500 warships!
The first thing Alan said when he regained his energy was, "Calculate how long it will take them to get to where we are?" ”
Richard quickly calculated the speed of the opposing fleet through the observation system, and then calculated that the time for the alien fleet to reach the planet where the Federation fleet is located is 25 hours!
Alan immediately rushed to the intercom system on the side of the ship, and called directly to the captain of the life-class spaceship where he was located, "Captain Robert, please inform General Thor immediately, we have found another fleet of alien civilizations, with 500 warships. 、
They are encircling from the other side of the galaxy, only 25 hours away. Please evacuate as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late. ”
Captain Robert knew that Dr. Allen was monitoring the situation of the alien fleet, so he hurriedly repeated, "Are you sure that there is still an alien fleet of 500 warships surrounding us?" We're only 25 hours away? ”
"Yes, I confirm, please report to General Thor as soon as possible!"
Captain Robert replied, "Okay, I'll report immediately, Doctor, you have to keep a close eye on the alien fleet." ”
Captain Robert ended the call with Dr. Allen and immediately contacted the flagship, quickly informing him of the situation.
"What? And an alien fleet? It was surrounded from the other direction, and there was only 25 hours left. General Fresnel's face changed dramatically.
It was General Thor who came to report the situation to General Fresnel, "Yes, apparently this alien civilization doesn't know when it has already detected us, so it has adopted encirclement tactics.
They deliberately appeared one after the other, and the fleet of 800 warships must have been there to attract our attention, and the other 500 warships were copied from another bread. ”
General Fresnel immediately said: "Don't think about it, immediately abandon the equipment on the planet that has not yet been shipped, immediately activate the stargate device, and we will leave here immediately." ”
"Yes, General." General Thor didn't say anything and hurried away.
The entire Federation fleet was already ready to evacuate, but it was only carrying out the transfer of factory equipment on the planet, and at this time, knowing that the alien civilization fleet was only 3 astronomical units away from here, General Fresnel naturally threw everything away and evacuated immediately.
With all the landing ships on the planet returning, the computer-controlled stargate device began to kick in.
In the planet's outer orbit, a huge water ripple-like stargate has been gradually revealed.
The Federation fleet has been activated from orbit, lined up in a traversal formation, and is ready to sail towards the stargate.
However, at this moment, countless interstellar missiles fell from the sky and bombarded the planet's surface, and the roar of hydrogen bombs resounded through the planet's thin atmosphere.
Fresnel stood in the flagship's command room, looking at the scene on the display, and couldn't help but be stunned.
This alien civilization fleet had already launched long-range interstellar missiles, and they were targeting planets, but fortunately, Alan and the others found them in time again, otherwise they would have suffered even greater losses.
Fresnel ordered the fleet to use a laser close defense system to destroy some of the interstellar missiles attacking the fleet, and then it was about to pass through the stargate in front of it.
However, the stargate that had just been normal with ripples of water suddenly disappeared!
Fresnel was shocked, "Oh no, our Stargate device must have been destroyed by those starmissiles!" ”
At this time, General Thor beside him looked at the void of the disappearing stargate with some despair, "General, we don't have a stargate anymore!" ”
General Finier stared at the rising mushroom clouds on the planet, feeling a pang of regret in his heart, knowing that he would not carry the equipment.
After thinking about it, he turned to General Thor and said, "General Thor, I order you to go to the life-level spaceship immediately and lead the 2 life-level spaceships to leave as soon as possible, after all, the life-level spaceship can reach a maximum speed of 5,000 km/s after improvement, and it should be able to escape from the encirclement of the alien fleet." ”
General Thor was stunned for a moment, then understood General Fresnel's intentions, so he shook his head and said, "General, I'm sorry, I can't carry out this order."
The two captains on the Life-class ship are excellent, let them lead the ship away. I am willing to lead the fleet to fight the enemy and buy time for the evacuation of the ship. ”
General Fresnel looked at General Thor and said, "You are the most outstanding general in the third generation of the Federation fleet, you should go and lead the Life-level ship to break through." ”
General Thor still shook his head and said, "No, General, Captain Robert of the St. Mary is no worse than me, please appoint him and let him lead the ship to speed up the evacuation." ”
General Fresnel saw General Saul's determined expression, and had to sigh; "Okay, then let's fight together.
Connect me with Captains Robert and Daniel, and I'll give them orders. ”
Looking at the two captains on the screen, Admiral Fresnel said: "Now, on behalf of the federal government, I appoint Robert as the Supreme Commander and Daniel as the Deputy Commander-in-Chief.
Please immediately lead the two life-class ships to choose the direction and break through at the highest speed! Our fleet will try to hold off the enemy as much as possible for you! ”
Captain Robert replied with a solemn face: "Two generals, please take care!" We'll do our best to get the ship out. ”
Captain Daniel also said solemnly: "We understand our mission, and we will definitely escape from the enemy's encirclement. ”
General Fresnel didn't say anything more, and after finishing the connection, he immediately led 10 warships in the direction of the 500 alien warships.
Despite having only 10 ships, Admiral Fresnel continued to meet the superior enemy without hesitation, and at the rear of the fleet, the two Life-class ships turned around and began to accelerate to top speed, out of the starry sky.
The direction chosen by the two life-class ships is to keep moving away from the two alien civilization warships, but it is destined to be a difficult escape journey.
When the two life-class ships gradually moved away, the alien civilization fleet should have discovered this change, and 200 warships out of the 500 warships were immediately separated, and they were divided into two ways to chase in the direction of the life-class spaceship's escape.
At this time, the alien fleet of 800 warships had just arrived at the periphery of the Kuiper Belt of the star system, and they also divided their forces in a timely manner, dividing them into eight small fleets of 100 warships.
Four of the fleets were also chasing in the direction of the Life-class ships, and the other four were surrounding the Federation fleet.
At the same time, an invisible radio wave has been sent.
"This is the Mira Civilization Fleet, please don't put up useless resistance to the Earth Civilization Fleet, you have other fleets that have fallen into our hands, and you can't escape."
When General Fresnel and General Saul saw the message, they couldn't believe their eyes, and the message from the other party was actually in English.
In the telegram, it was even mentioned that the fleet of the earth civilization had fallen into their hands, which country's fleet would it be? You must know that the earth escaped from the Chinese fleet, the Europa fleet, the E fleet, the R fleet, the YD fleet, plus the two North American fleets, a total of 7 fleets.
General Thor frowned and said, "The direction we are in now is no longer the direction chosen when the fleet left Earth at the beginning, and after passing through the Star Gate, the direction will change.
Therefore, it is really impossible to guess which country's fleet also came in this direction and was captured by this Mira civilization fleet. ”
Admiral Fresnel said calmly: "Now is not the time to guess which country's fleet was captured by them, let's not mess with ourselves. We must complete our mission of covering the escape of life-class ships, and the citizens of the Federation cannot be captured alive by them.
We cannot put our security in the hands of a hostile civilization. It is better to die in battle than to surrender.
You know, this is a war between two interstellar races, not a war between various countries in our original Earth era. ”
"Got it, so do we need to get back to them?" General Thor asked.
General Fresnel shook his head and said, "We don't respond in any way. Since the other party has divided its forces, let's not rush at the fleet with the largest number of warships, let's intercept a small fleet chasing in the direction of life-class spaceships, and try to relieve the pressure on Robert and them. ”
