626, scorched

But of course, not all of the commanders are a rabble, and most of the rabble are speculators.

The core strength of the commander group is also calm, sober, and actively involved high-level personnel.

They already have a personal fleet with very high coordination and combat ability, and the places they control are already very difficult to capture.

And immediately after the start of the coup, the senior human commanders, led by Cedric, immediately thought of the possibility of a counteroffensive by the establishment.

At the same time, they also know that the ability to communicate between the commander and the ship's mother is the biggest advantage of the commander's group over the free ship's mother.

They quickly devised a specialized command system, with a senior commander leading multiple ordinary commanders to form a command center.

Take advantage of the unobstructed communication between the commander and the tough to gain unlimited vision to a certain extent.

The counteroffensive of the establishment faction, which quickly broke through the defensive line of the scattered commanders on the periphery, encountered the area controlled by the command center composed of senior commanders, and ran into hard bones.

And the teams of these commanders, after all, have just joined forces, and their ability to cooperate is limited.

For the time being, the defense is sufficient, but if you want to continue the attack, it is slightly insufficient.

The two sides soon entered a stalemate.

At the same time as the local establishment faction counterattacked, Lexington Essex himself at the headquarters also completed the reorganization of the task force directly under the former headquarters.

Then divide into several directions and sail together to the capital military port.

Outside the appropriate attack distance of the military port of the headquarters, the aircraft carrier attack formation was lined up in turn to prepare for air strikes.

At the same time, an ultimatum was issued to Cedric, demanding that Cedric surrender immediately.

Cedric had anticipated Lexington's moves.

Land-based reconnaissance aircraft in the military port of the capital have been patrolling the perimeter, and the fleets of Cedric himself and his allies are on standby near the military port.

Now that he received news from Lexington, Cedric knew that Lexington's fleet was coming, and his own reconnaissance planes did not find it.

The capital is a city, a military port, which is fixed, while the opposing fleet cruises on the sea, to some extent, in a state of darkness and light.

Cedric ordered the release of all the reconnaissance planes, expanded the search area, and left the harbor of the fleet to prepare for battle, and at the same time sent a telegram back to Lexington:

"Ms. Lexington, we have no intention of fighting you, our actions are to reform the unreasonable system and to fight for the rights that the human commanders deserve.

"We cordially invite you to join us in forming a new coalition parliament and government."

After reading it, Lexington replied directly:

"Don't pretend anymore, I know what you want to do, what a human thinks, there are no secrets to us.

"You, you destroyed the Senate, more than 600 years old, and there is no news so far, and there is a lot of luck.

"You, you destroyed the core institutions and facilities of the headquarters, and hundreds of thousands of humans and ship mothers lost their lives at your hands.

"You are a sinner in the entire headquarters, your sins are extremely heinous, your sins are unforgivable, and it is not a pity to die!

"One last time, surrender now, I can leave you a whole corpse!"

Although Cedric knew that it was useless to say anything, he continued to reply and buy time:

"I'm sorry, but I didn't experiment with it before using it to keep it sudden, so I'm not sure how powerful that new weapon really is.

"After the explosion, I immediately gathered people to extinguish the fire and entered the scene of the explosion to find the elders.

"So far, some of them have been found, and not all of them died, but because they were so badly injured that they could not regain their senses in a short time.

"The most important thing for us now is to re-establish order, not to fight each other and consume the forces of the command!

"If you have any requirements or ideas, you can arrange for someone to come and interview us."

Receiving these words, Lexington Essex hesitated for a moment.

Cedric's point is clear, the senators are not all dead, some are confirmed to be alive.

However, those who are still alive have rightfully become Cedric's captives and hostages.

But Lexington Essex's determination has not been affected much.

Prisoners have a strategy for dealing with prisoners, prisoners have the treatment of prisoners, and if the decision on the frontal battlefield is affected because of the hostages and prisoners, then the provisions on the transfer of power and duties are meaningless.

Therefore, even though Lexington only cared about the condition of the living senator, he did not continue to entangle with Cedric, because Lexington knew that Cedric was stalling for time.

So, Lexington sent one last telegram to Cedric:

"You'd better make sure the elders are okay, that will alleviate your sins, or else you will bear the consequences!"

Then no longer waiting for Cedric's reply, he directly conveyed his own order:

"Start attacking!"

More than 30 fleet aircraft carriers with a total of more than 1,000 fighters and attack planes were released, divided into several groups, and pounced on their former capital military port from multiple directions.

As the distance got closer and closer, the air defense radar on Cedric's side finally reacted, and looking at the secret light point on the screen, the radar soldier immediately pulled up the air defense alarm.

The land-based fighters hovering in the sky, and the fighters of the ship mother who spread out the hull nearby, immediately stepped forward to meet the attack, and a large-scale air battle quickly began.

The first wave of fighting between the two sides was particularly fierce, and the members of both sides were holding their strength, and after the battle, they were all fighting with an almost desperate momentum.

Lexington's side wants to get through the other side's interception and attack the capital's airfield and resource facilities, while Cedric's side has to protect them.

The battle quickly went into a scorching state from the start.

This state makes both sides very entangled.

The composition of the team of the enemy and the enemy is very similar, and the two ships with the same origin will be deployed at the same time, and the combat effectiveness of both sides will be weakened at the same time.

That's the awkwardness of the civil war at the headquarters.

But this is not a good thing, the battle of the hull cannot decide the winner, then there will be a large-scale white-knuckle battle in the state of the ship.

And the casualties of white-knuckle combat are not only large-scale, but also almost uncontrollable.

Both sides strive to have the upper hand as much as possible in the first battle and avoid a close hand-to-hand fight.

But the actual battle situation is that neither side has taken advantage of Lexington, which is stronger, and Cedric, who is supported by land-based fighters.

The battle lasted for a morning, and there was almost no victory, and the ships on the Lexington side changed a group as a whole, but they still couldn't break into the opponent's defense.

Although the Lexington side destroyed some facilities, it can be said that it did not cause substantial damage to the entire capital.
