Chapter 8: The Crisis Returns
About ten days later, the fleet of the Smugglers arrived on Tafman. They came and went, black and oppressive, like a flock of crows. The Monta coalition forces were ready and ready for battle, and war was imminent.
The battle began to start locally, and some snakeheads invaded the atmosphere and began to attack the ground of Tafman, and Tafman's ground forces immediately returned fire. The war began from point to point, and finally blossomed and started in an all-round way.
Since the number of smugglers this time is far more than last time, and it is far more than the Montatu fleet, and the strength of the Tafman is weaker, the situation is more serious. Clark has applied to the Alliance, and Alliance headquarters has agreed to send additional reinforcements. However, the Alliance's personnel and materials will still have to arrive on Tafman, and it will take a total of several months before and after, and the Monta Coalition must withstand this time.
The battle is tense and brutal, the base of Tafman is destroyed every day, the fleet is shot down every day, and the soldiers are killed and injured every day, and the situation is very serious.
In the midst of the tension, Luo Xingyu asked Arpad to join the battle and do his part, the situation was critical, and there was a shortage of personnel, so he couldn't care so much, and Alpad immediately agreed. He asked him to join the drone team first to help deliver energy materials or assist the main fighters in combat.
The drone operation team is in the mothership, and the captain of the team is called Ralchi, who is a good friend of Alpad, and he immediately arranged for a person to guide Luo Xingyu to study. The control room of the drone is an anti-real design, which is exactly the same as the control room of the real fighter, which can not only be used to control the drone, but also can be used as a simulated training cabin for manned fighters in peacetime, Luo Xingyu immediately began to study nervously.
Because Luo Xingyu himself already has a certain aerospace knowledge and Montatu language graphic foundation, it is not very difficult to learn, or it will not be long before he learns to operate a drone, and after assessment, he is officially incorporated into the team.
The war has been going on for half a month, the Tafman planet has lost half of its land, the snakeheads have landed, and began to attack from the air and the ground, the Monta coalition and the fleeing Tafmans continue to fight in the remaining half of the area. Reinforcements are already on their way, but it will take more than two months, and it is difficult to say whether they will survive these two months.
Because the snakeheads had landed, and they had the facilities to replenish their resources and attack on the ground, the Monta coalition had a very difficult resistance.
After another month, the Monta coalition lost half of the area, at this time they have been compressed in a small area, if they do not retreat, then it is likely that the whole army will be annihilated, forced to helpless, the leader of Tufman and Clark agreed, decided to save strength, decided to abandon the star, and wait for the arrival of Montatu's reinforcements to attack back.
After the decision was made to abandon the star, the order was immediately issued, the fleets were immediately prepared, and the ground forces, which could not escape, could only hide in the field and fight guerrillas. The fleet will bring as many people as possible with them, and others that cannot be brought can only flee for their lives and ask for more blessings, hoping that reinforcements will arrive as soon as possible, and they will suffer less.
The fleet had been assembled to prepare for a breakout, and when the smugglers learned of their intentions, they gathered superior forces and surrounded them from the air and ground.
There was not much left of the fleet, Montatu's two motherships were intact, but less than half of the battleships were left, and a quarter of Tafman's fleet remained, three motherships, and less than a hundred other large ships. They were divided into three parts, one part was responsible for opening a gap in the encirclement and protecting it, the middle part carried the fleeing crowd, and the tail part was the broken fleet, and Luo Xingyu was assigned to the broken fleet.
The Josiah siblings also came, and they were incorporated into the vanguard fleet responsible for the breakout.
After the fleet was ready, it began to prepare to break through, the fleet in front rushed to the blockade net of the snakeheads, opened a gap, and then resisted the attack of the snakeheads in all directions, and the middle fleet rushed out, and after the middle fleet was out, the vanguard troops and the broken tail troops together blocked the pursuit of the snakeheads.
When the smugglers found out that they had escaped, they rushed over in a frenzy and attacked them violently.
Luo Xingyu was in the big ship, concentrating on operating the drone, and as time went by, his skills had become proficient, comparable to that of a mature Montatu operator.
The smugglers were biting them to the death, and it was very difficult to get rid of them, and near him was the fleet of the Tafman, whose speed and firepower were not strong enough, so it was very difficult to get rid of the pursuit.
All kinds of warships and fighters in the sky shuttled back and forth, dazzling, most of the broken part of the Monta coalition had flown out of the encirclement and could retreat, at this time Luo Xingyu saw through the lens of the drone that Yoshia's fighter plane was nearby, and the two snakehead fighters were biting her, and she couldn't escape. Luo Xingyu hurriedly manipulated the drone to help, but after a fight, Josia's fighter was shot, lost power, and fell to the ground. Josia didn't jump out of the plane, probably because he was stunned, and at this time, a snake-headed drone next to him came over and grabbed Josia's fighter under the abdomen like an eagle catching a chicken with its grasping arm.
Luo Xingyu hurriedly went to the rescue, but at this time, a shell hit his drone, the screen went black, and he couldn't see the picture anymore, and the drone lost contact.
Luo Xingyu hurriedly ran to the hangar, and saw that there happened to be a manned fighter plane parked there because of a lack of personnel, he got into it without saying a word, and drove the fighter to fly outside the ship.
He piloted the fighter plane and rushed towards the smuggler drone that captured Yoshia's fighter, and after a few rounds, the smuggler drone was hit and let go of Yoshia's fighter. Luo Xingyu grabbed Josia's fighter with his grab arm and flew towards the big ship, at this time, three more smuggler fighters surrounded him, Luo Xingyu hurriedly handed over Josia's fighter to a Tafman fighter who was about to retreat, and headed towards the three smuggler fighters.
Luo Xingyu rushed left and right in the enemy plane, trying to get rid of the encirclement, after several struggles, suddenly a heavy artillery hit Luo Xingyu's fighter, the aircraft and ship shook suddenly, and then another shell hit, Luo Xingyu's eyes were dark, and he fainted.
I don't know how much later, Luo Xingyu woke up and found that he was lying on the bed in a small space with unique four walls, all four walls were metal structures, no windows, only a ventilation hole on the top, and he understood that he should have been captured.
Sure enough, after a short time, two snake-headed soldiers came over, brought him out, and took him to an interrogation room, where there was already a group of people, and in the middle of it sat a fierce snake-headed man.
The smuggler soldier brought it to the leader, and the vicious smuggler asked, "We have tested your DNA and found that your DNA is partially different from that of the Tafmans, you are not a Tafman, where are you from?" ”
Luo Xingyu thought that he might get different treatment if he wasn't a Tafman, so he said: "I'm really not a Tafman, I'm an earthling." ”
"Earthlings? Where is the Earth? ”
Of course, Luo Xingyu was not so stupid, and said casually: "In the vicinity of the silver heart." ”
The snake-headed man was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly took him down, escorted him to a nearby hall, opened the star map and asked him, "Where is it?" ”
Luo Xingyu said casually in a position near Yinxin: "Here." ”
He saw that the smuggler's face changed, his face was gloomy, he didn't say a word, and with a wave of his hand, the smuggler escorted him back to the cell.
Luo Xingyu is inexplicable about a pantomime, I don't know why the snake-headed man's face changed, and he doesn't know whether it is evil or auspicious, there is no way to guess, even if it comes, it will be safe, and Luo Xingyu will not care.
He didn't know where he was, and judging from the cell and the structure of the room he had just visited, he was supposed to be in a spaceship, but he didn't know where the ship was.
A few days later, several smugglers came and put him on a small spaceship and flew into space, and after a while, he was escorted to a larger spaceship, which was a new, luxurious ship from the structure and interior decoration.
He was escorted into a large room, and after a while, a crowd of people walked in surrounded by a man who was dressed differently from the other snakeheads, who was unusually large, with a head much larger than the other snakeheads. He was dressed very gorgeously, with colorful decorations on his shoulder straps and clothes up to his feet, which Luo Xingyu did not see in other snake-headed people or chiefs, his expression was indifferent, fierce and arrogant, judging from the respectful appearance of the other snake-headed people around him, his status should be very high, and he sat down on a luxurious chair after he came in, without saying a word. There was a snake-headed man with a bowed head beside him, and after the big man sat down, the snake-headed man with a bowed head came over to interrogate, he opened a star map next to him, pointed to a place and asked Luo Xingyu: "Is your planet here?" ”
"Yes."
"You call earthlings?"
"Yes."
"Do you know your origins, or do you know who your ancestors were?"
"Our origins? We evolved from microbes. ”
"You evolved from microorganisms? What is your history? ”
Luo Xingyu gave a general account of the history of the earth.
The snake-headed man looked at him suspiciously, as if he didn't believe it, and the snake-headed people around him were also whispering to each other. After asking, Luo Xingyu knew that although it was the snake-headed man who lowered his head and waisted him, it was the big man who actually asked him, the big man did not speak, the snake-headed man looked at the big man for a while, and probably received a look, and then came over and said fiercely: "Listen, I don't care if what you say is true or false, we can send a spaceship to that area immediately, if you find out that you are lying to us, you will die, and you will die ugly." ”
"I'm not lying, our planet is there." Luo Xingyu said, if you die ugly, you will die ugly, and you will talk about it first.
The big man never said a word, looking at all this indifferently, after a while, he stood up and walked towards the door, and a group of people followed him and walked out, and Luo Xingyu was escorted back to the cell.
Luo Xingyu didn't know the identity of this snake-headed man, he didn't know why they asked about the origin of human beings, and why they were so interested in the ancestors of the earth, he casually made a nonsense about a location, tens of thousands of light years away, and he didn't think that the snake-headed people would also go to reconnoitre, but it was okay, they would have to go back and forth there for a long time, which gave him the opportunity to avoid punishment or death, as for what they would do to him after they found out that he was lying, they could only talk about it then.
Later, the snake-headed man came over to interrogate Luo Xingyu several times about the situation on the earth, in order to make the snake-headed man believe him and avoid being executed or other hardships, Luo Xingyu added oil and vinegar, false and true, half-truth, although the snake-headed man may not believe it, but it can be delayed for a day.
