Chapter 13: Prelude to the Pioneers (13)

Unbeknownst to the Fourteenth Reconnaissance Fleet, it was crashing headlong into the encirclement of the Firians. Compared to the blindfolded Emma fleet, which only cares about running around, the reconnaissance fleet tasked with tracking the task of its actions is easier to predict for the Philian fleet that is pulling the net to search the sector.

For the Firion, who were already in a state of great rage, the behavior of the Federation fleet seemed a little sneaky. For this, the commander in charge of the search, Andor? Tren? Colonel Monroe, once again, asked for reinforcements from the Philian government.

However, the request of the radical commander was rejected by the top. Because the Ferrion government is still calm and sane. So here's the truth: the Ferrion government thinks that the military's losses in this sector are nothing to the entire country of Ferion.

The Kolber sector is a marginal area in the Ferrion Field, although as early as six months ago, the main planet of the Ferion government had received news from the colony planet, and at the same time ordered the local armed forces in the Ferrion sector to be responsible for responding to pirate attacks.

This is how the Firion have treated piracy for countless years. Although the local armed forces are weak, there is no pressure to deal with the weaker pirates. The light cruisers used by the Emma to plunder the population caused the Firion to misjudge the enemy's strength.

The pirates that the Firion people initially thought were actually the vanguard reconnaissance force of the Emma Navy, and later the Emma Navy appeared on the scale of a squadron. When the Golden Fleet met with the Silver White Fleet, there was no communication. Before the Emma Empire had a good fight, the Emma Empire was always arrogant and dismissive.

The Silver and White Fleet may have had the intention of communicating, only to be angered by the Golden Fleet's contemptuous attitude before then. The same civilization that has stepped into space, the same huge territory, and the army that has not failed for countless years, such a proud Firion will certainly not tolerate anyone, and see themselves as livestock that can be disposed of at will.

The local armed forces in the Kolber Sector are actually quite strong, as can be seen from the fact that a squadron of Emma's Navy is reluctant to even meet their main fleet. After all, outside the battlefield of the Imperial Duel, the battleship was already the pinnacle of the Empire's armed forces, not to mention that this was a squadron of more than forty battleships in the Emma Navy.

In fact, among the three forces involved in the Ferrion Star Domain, the Emma Empire was unable to respond more because of the indescribable problems of the major families in the country, which caused the Emma Navy, the most powerful military force in the world, to be unable to respond more. And the Yanhuang Federation is a little irritable because of the pressure of disarmament. The Federal Naval Command left the incident entirely to Lulu.

The irascible Federation Navy is not easy to deal with, and the irascible Yanhuang Federation is even more difficult to deal with. Unfortunately, however, the Philians did not know that the targets of their hunt had become more powerful.

"Drip-Drip-Drip"

A sharp alarm suddenly sounded inside the Federation starship, which was sneaking in an unfamiliar galaxy, and the radar system detected an attack from three million kilometers away.

"......"

Although the entire fleet was on maximum alert, it was still caught off guard by the sudden attack. Fortunately, there were veterans in the reconnaissance fleet who had been on the battlefield, and the staff officer of the major in charge of the radar system on the fleet leader ship, Mo Shanwu, was probably the fastest person to react, so he grabbed the intercom and shouted in the fleet channel: "Lightspeed energy attack." ”

There are correct orders given by the officers in the channel, but there are also newcomers who are in a hurry.

"What do you mean, huh? Collision warning,, going to hit ......"

"Pay attention to the posture, pay attention to the posture, the main push to maintain, don't stop ......"

"Determination bearing: X84, Y44, Z36."

"Get out of the boat, don't hit ......"

"Don't do it all manually, leave it to the central system."

"Leadership: Emergency release of coolant, shield power adjusted to maximum ......"

With the command from the lead ship, large and small starships quickly sprayed powder towards the periphery, and the fine powder instantly filled the periphery of the ship.

Release coolant and increase shield energy, the former is specifically designed to deal with energy attacks, or laser attacks, and the latter is when the battle alarm sounds, the ship's central system will increase the power supply of the shield system, and the human confirmation command plays a role in speeding up the review.

The ships in charge of the veterans immediately began to deal with the energy attack after hearing the prompts in the fleet channel. The ship in charge of the clone only began to respond after receiving a clear command from the leader. Although the difference between the two is only three to five seconds, the coverage of the coolant sprayed by the entire fleet is different.

In the bridge of the leading ship, Colonel Wang Chengfeng said nothing with a blue face, this commander with extremely rich combat experience was trying to extract useful information from the channel at the moment. Because it's a newly formed organization, the cooperation between them is a bit bad, no, it should be said that it is bad.

Colonel Wang Chengfeng's dissatisfaction is also shared by many veterans in the fleet, and the difference between clones and veterans is so big.

Ten seconds after the alarm sounded, an attack from afar arrived at the location of the blue-gray fleet.

The scorching beam dropped rapidly through the cold mist, causing no damage to the Federation ships with their shields on. However, the enemy's blow will not be the only one. In fact, just five seconds later, another wave of attacks arrived.

"The weapon link is online, and according to the determined position, the battleship's main guns will counterattack." Colonel Wang Chengfeng roared angrily, "The battleship follows the lead ship to maneuver synchronously. ”

So, when the blue-gray fleet sailed out of the white mist, the blue-white roar went straight to the silver-white fleet millions of kilometers away.

"Order a detachment of reconnaissance ships to cover both wings." Wang Chengfeng glanced at the tactical map and found that the enemies were distributed in several different directions. Without thinking too much about it, this is a trap, the enemy occupies an advantageous position, and his own troops are very dangerous when the performance of the starship is not far apart.

"Understood, the two wings of the reconnaissance ship are spread out, and the cover of lightning strikes is performed." Lieutenant Colonel Li Youxin, who served as the commander's adjutant of the 14th reconnaissance fleet, responded in a deep voice. From his rank, it is clear that this adjutant is the second commander of the fleet in the true sense of the word. Wang Chengfeng's battle orders need to pass through his hands before they reach the hands of specific executors.

"Battleship, assault preparation." Wang Chengfeng silently counted the time, and he was ready to let the fleet start the micro-curve at two hundred and twenty seconds.

The adjutant who had a tacit understanding with Wang Chengfeng immediately repeated in the fleet channel: "Understood, the miniature jump thruster is warm-up, and the countdown is two hundred." ”

The Throne of Kings class long-range shooting does not intimidate any opponent, but if the Throne of Kings class wants to truly use its firepower advantage, it can only close the distance with the enemy.

As a colonel officer, Wang Chengfeng certainly understands the precautions when commanding the throne level of ten thousand kings. The large fleet needs to let the battleships support each other, and the small fleet, the throne class will inevitably jump to the enemy's face and paste each other with antimatter.

This time is the same, although the enemy is unfamiliar and has a technology that he doesn't understand, Wang Chengfeng still subconsciously chooses to get close to his face. There is no way, Wang Chengfeng himself is a colonel who has just been promoted, and the 10th reconnaissance fleet has just been formed. Neither battleships nor reconnaissance ships had fought together before. Wang Chengfeng took into account that he had no experience in cooperation and could only use basic assault tactics.

Even if Lu Lu is allowed to come in person, in the face of his own only two hundred troops, he will only choose to be close to his face, the throne level of ten thousand kings, it should be used like this.

From starting the Weiqu to crossing the distance of 3 million kilometers and reaching the vicinity of the target, it took only ten seconds for the 200 battleships led by Wang Chengfeng. Ten seconds, just enough time to replace the battleship's weapon system with new ammunition. Therefore, the Federation fleet, which had just finished maneuvering, immediately attacked.

Not only are the powerful main guns attacking, but there are also more than 1,000 turrets in the close-range defense system, which is commonly known as the "Deckwash" in the Federation fleet. In fact, the battleships of the major empires all had short-range defense systems, most of which were designed to deal with the aviation of the federal navy. However, only the Federation Starship has developed a new way to play with the short-range defense system, presumably due to the frequent wars of the Federation Navy.

However, for the silver-white fleet, the blue-gray fleet that suddenly jumped to a distance of less than a thousand kilometers from itself, especially the moment it faced itself, was the light of death. That is, from the paint to the firepower, it seems to be an extremely violent existence.

It's too close to dodge, and I don't dare to maneuver in any way. Otherwise, traffic accidents can bring destruction without waiting for artillery fire to bring death.

At close range, the unreasonable weapon system of the Throne of Kings class brought great damage to Ferrion's starship. The Frion starship's shield system crumbled under the onslaught of high-energy particles. In terms of the design structure of the Philian starship, once the shield disappears, the hull structure will not last long.

Of course, at this time, the Firion people did not know that they were facing two enemies with their own characteristics and similarities. Although the shield technology of the Emma Empire is not very good, the starship can resist everything from armor to structure. The Federation is a pioneer in shield technology, with advanced shield technology and increasingly strange armor designs.

And what are the starships of the Ferion, because there are not many forces that can gnaw the shield, so in order to reduce the cost of the starship, the armor is cut. Although it was the right choice in some cases, it turned out that the Philian starship relied heavily on shields for its protection.

Only the shield resistance has a significant disadvantage. Although the shield is present, it will not be afraid of most attacks. However, once the shield disappears, or the enemy's attack penetrates the shield, the starship without armor protection is much more vulnerable.

At this time, the Firien people could probably only complain about the big man in the coalition government, who was happy when he cut the military budget in a big way, and now he is blind in the face of new threats.
