Chapter 30: Fleeing in a fiasco
"Toot-toot-toot-"
The alarm sounded suddenly, startling everyone on the bridge of the Yanlong, and everyone looked nervously at the big screen.
"Alarm, alarm, a large number of enemy mechs are approaching, a large number of enemy mechs are approaching!" The verbal cues given by the artificial intelligence made everyone feel a little confused.
However, artificial intelligence will not joke with everyone, since the alarm sounds, it means that there is really an enemy approaching.
Shen Shan hurriedly asked, "Where is the enemy?" ”
The artificial intelligence immediately displayed the radar scan results on the big screen, and everyone immediately gasped when they saw it, only to see that the dense red dots on the screen had reached a position very close to the fleet, and it could almost be said that the enemy had already ridden to the head with only one step.
"What's going on?" Shen Dan jumped up and asked, "Why did you find out when you got so close?" ”
The intelligence officer called up the detailed report of the scan, looked at it, and replied, "Report to the general, our radar has just discovered it. ”
"This doesn't make sense, there are so many mechas, it's impossible to get close to them silently, unless they ......" Shen Dan's pupils dilated, as if he had thought of something.
He hurriedly said, "Quick! Put real-time footage on the big screen! ”
Soon the real-time image was displayed in front of everyone's eyes, and when Shen Dan and the others saw it, they immediately understood what was going on, only to see a large amount of space junk slowly drifting towards the direction where the fleet was located, and the shadows could see some faint light mixed with these garbage.
"Damn! They used space junk to sneak in slowly! Shen Shan said angrily: "How did the intelligence department do it!" ”
The intelligence officer was so frightened that he couldn't even say a word, and waited for the application to be sent with a pale face.
Shendan's adjutant Tao Ji was also dumbfounded at this time, weren't these space junks the cruelty of the civilian fleet that was destroyed just now?
Who would have thought that the rebels' mecha troops were actually hiding in these wreckage, it seems that the rebels had premeditated at all.
This shows that the rebels are not only very familiar with the radar system of the fleet, but also very good at mechs, otherwise it would not have been possible to come up with such a plan of action.
However, it is too late to hold accountable at this point, and it is imperative to find a way to deal with the impending attack.
Shen Shan ordered to immediately send mechs to meet the battle, and the fleet immediately retreated, trying to distance as much as possible to avoid the enemy's mechs from rushing directly to the ship.
Just when the 7th Fleet discovered the rebel mechs, the rebel mecha units also found that they had been exposed, so they no longer hid themselves and rushed towards the fleet at full speed.
The advantage of the fleet lies in the powerful and dense artillery fire, and the farther away this advantage is, once it is too close to the enemy's mech, this advantage will be lost, and then it can only rely on auxiliary artillery fire to deal with the mech, and the ship will be at a disadvantage.
Four hundred mechs turned on their main engines and rushed straight for the fleet in desperation, and the sooner they landed on the surface of the ship, the safer the mechs were.
"The general is not good! The enemy is coming! ”
"The mecha will attack immediately, the fleet will fire a cannon for me, I must stop them from attacking the interior of the fleet!" Shen Shan yelled.
A dazzling particle cannon beam cut through the silent and dark space, and the rebels' mecha troops had no choice but to continue to sprint, as for whether they could survive or not, it was completely up to luck.
A mecha was swept by a particle cannon beam, and the mecha was immediately heated to a high level of thousands of degrees, and its entire body turned red, and then exploded.
"Keep shooting! Don't stop! Use all the artillery fire you can use! Seeing the rebels' mecha group getting closer and closer on the big screen, Shen Shan shouted angrily.
Adjutant Tao Ji also kept ordering: "Send out the drone and find a way to drag the enemy!" Fast! ”
A large number of drones and the remaining mechs of the fleet were sent out, but at this time, some of the rebel mechs had already rushed into the arrays of the fleet, and the guns on the ships did not dare to continue firing for fear of injuring friendly ships, so they had to use auxiliary small naval guns to attack the mechs instead.
However, the threat posed by this fixed auxiliary naval gun to the mechs was very limited, and experienced mechs were not afraid of such naval guns at all.
A rebel mech flew directly to the top of a cruiser, raised the laser gun in its hand, and blasted the auxiliary ship's guns into pieces in three or two blows, and then fired at the surrounding area, destroying all kinds of equipment installed outside the ship.
Soon a group of drones rushed to the rescue, but the weapons carried by the drones were still too weak to deal with the mecha, and the mecha pilots quickly destroyed the drones one by one, and then continued to destroy the ship.
The same happened on almost every ship, as the fleet's mechs were mainly sent to the ground and the other part was used to capture the spaceport, and the number of mechs left was not much, and it was really difficult to deal with the rebels.
At this time, the 7th Fleet was in a mess, and everyone knew very well in their hearts that if they didn't get rid of these mechas, they would be the ones who would be destroyed.
Originally, the 7th Fleet still had a lot of small ships that could be used to deal with mechs, but most of them were transferred to support ground forces, and even if they were recalled immediately, it would take a lot of time to return.
At this time, Shen Shan didn't have any plans, he ordered all the mechs to return to the fleet immediately, and a large number of small ships sent to support the ground forces were also quickly recalled.
However, it will take some time for these troops to return immediately, but who knows how long the fleet will be able to hold on.
"Boom!" There was a loud bang. The hatch of a transport ship was blown open, and before the flames could be extinguished, the rebel mechs burst into the ship through the cracked hole.
The mecha held a laser gun and fired in all directions, and the cabin suddenly burst into flames, explosions and debris flew everywhere, and many people on board died instantly.
The mech fired wildly all the way and rushed into the hangar in one go, and all kinds of weapons that had not yet been put into battle were blown apart. The violent explosion caused serious damage to the ship's interior, and the explosion and fire caused a series of chain reactions, causing more and more damage in more and more places.
Seeing that the goal had been achieved, the mech came out of the same way and left before the transport ship exploded. In a short time, there was a huge explosion of the entire transport ship, and a huge fireball lit up the pitch-black space.
The rebel mechs shuttled back and forth between the fleets, each looking for a target and launching attacks non-stop, and many ships were severely damaged by the mechs' attacks, and the entire 7th fleet fell into a state of extreme chaos.
Many of the ships exploded continuously, and the raging flames could be seen from a distance, and most of the crew members were already killed in the fire before they could escape.
The wrecked ship lost control and slammed into the headless flies, destroying some of the surrounding ships as well, and the fallen ship slowly drifted towards the planetary hopping hill with flames.
"The mecha unit will do its best to protect the flagship, and the general's flagship must not be attacked!" Adjutant Tao Ji shouted anxiously.
Now it is impossible to completely resist the rebels' mecha troops, so they can only protect the flagship first, and if even the flagship is finished, then the entire 7th fleet will be destroyed.
More bad news continued to come, and the ground forces of the 7th Fleet were facing an extremely severe test due to the recall of ships supporting the ground and the rebels' ground forces launching another assault on the garrison in Pegasus City.
The rebels refused to stop there, and rockets began to be fired on the ground, preparing to launch more mechs into space, apparently planning to fight to the death with the 7th Fleet.
Seeing the countless bad news coming in, Shen Shan no longer knew which one to deal with first, and all he could do at the moment was to recall all the troops first, and at the same time let the fleet distance between each other, so as to slow down the speed of the destruction of the ships.
Because there was no interception by the fleet, the rebel rockets sent more and more mechs into space, and then continued to pounce on the fleet, and the rebel mechs stationed in several other spaceports also moved to kill the 7th fleet together.
Seeing this scene, Shen Dan's heart was already half cold, he knew that he was losing this game, but he didn't expect that the rebels would have so many mechas, and the huge number was completely beyond his imagination.
Shen Dan thought back to his various deployments, and he felt that his plan was fine, and the real reason why he lost the battle was that the enemy had a much bigger stake than him, and he could not have made the same bet to fight the rebels to the death.
Shen Dan, who gradually calmed down, let out a long sigh and said to the people around him: "We lost this battle, let's find a way to evacuate, so that we can reduce some losses." Evacuate the fleet to the outskirts of the galaxy and reformulate the battle plan. ”
The people around them all looked depressed, and if the battle was like this, they could only retreat first, try to keep the combat strength of the fleet, and maybe there would be a chance to get it back.
As a well-established fleet, the retreat plan was formulated long ago, and it only needed to be communicated. It didn't take long for the ships to be offered a retreat, and the entire 7th Fleet began heading towards the edge of the system.
Although the fleet is still under attack at this time, the rebels' mecha troops are not fools, and they can naturally see the intentions of the 7th fleet.
The rebels' mechs stopped fighting and instead attacked the ships that had not had time to break away in order to annihilate more ships.
As more and more ships left the battlefield, the rebels' mechs stopped pursuing and began to return to the spaceport in an orderly manner.
Shen Shan looked at the ships that were still burning behind him, and suddenly felt a burst of discouragement, he had a remarkable record in half his life, but he didn't expect to plant such a big heel here, and his reputation was completely ruined.
