Chapter 178: Surprise Attack (II)

Northern Star Field, Free Passage.

At one time, the Hermes spaceport was the most prosperous commercial spaceport in the entire northern star field and even in the entire Proxima Centauri, and the free shipping lane was also the most congested and busiest spaceway in the entire Federation. But now, thanks to Blair? Rex and Ansel? The two major parties of Ausvid, the entire federation was swept away by the flames of civil war. As the E-18 White Dong connecting the Alpha Galaxy and Proxima Centauri, it is regarded as the focus of this civil war, so the Northern Star Field and the Free Passage have become dangerous places for soldiers, which makes no businessman dare to let his transport ship sail on such a shipping lane that may break out at any time.

However, this depressed scene on the Free Passage is exactly what Robin dreamed of, and right now, he is leading the fleet to speed down the Free Passage as fast as possible, aiming at the currently unprotected Spaceport of Hermes. During this period, he had already communicated with Blair through the warship's communication system, and it was obvious that the defeat and trapping of Patlem's fleet had left Blair in a very bad mental state, and his mood was almost on the verge of getting out of control. If it weren't for Robin's sudden contact with him, I'm afraid that Blair would have asked Patlem's fleet to break out immediately in order to preserve the strength of the fleet. Robin's contact and vague assurances temporarily calmed Blair's mood, and he put aside his worries and personally gave Admiral Patlaim a death order to hold on for 36 hours.

36 hours is not a lot of time to win a battle, and Robin's original baseline is actually 48 hours. But Blair's mental condition is obviously not enough to support 48 xiao-hours long, and in his opinion, Patrame's fleet could be destroyed at any time, and it is very difficult to hold on for 36-xiao-hour for Robin. Moreover, Robin did not say a word about his plan of action in order to ensure that the news would not leak out, which also made Blair's confidence in Robin not very sufficient. Therefore, 36 hours is already the limit in Blair's heart, and once the promised time has passed, Blair will definitely decisively order Patlem to lead the army to break through.

Robin's risky initiative to contact Blair this time? Although Rex managed to win the extremely precious 36 xiao, it would also be a bit of a revelation, and it might even lead to the defeat of his surprise attack plan. Therefore, Robin, who realized this, almost rushed to the Hermes spaceport in a rapid march as fast as possible, and the accompanying Rose formation was divided into two flying groups, one group followed the fleet as an escort formation, while the other team was dispersed and arranged in front of the fleet in a fan, on the one hand, to prevent the sudden approach of the patrol fleet, and on the other hand, to destroy all the commercial transport ships that might encounter on the waterway along the way through the method of instant annihilation.

Luckily, the journey was surprisingly smooth and didn't run into Eugene along the way? Mellon's patrol fleet.

Maybe after the successful encirclement of Patlem's fleet, Eugene? For the sake of Mellon's carelessness, the patrol fleets that split off from the garrison fleet of the space station industrial park did not carry out the regular large-scale patrol, but concentrated the area near the space station industrial park, which happened to not radiate to the area of the Hermes spaceport.

And Eugene? The large-scale battle between Mellon and Admiral Patlem also made those logistics companies stationed in the Hermes spaceport dare not act rashly, and all the transport ships under their command are moored in the Hermes spaceport, temporarily suspend the company's commercial operations, and then resume business after the war is over.

The presence of these two factors makes the free passage connecting the Trailblazer space station and the Hermes spaceport an absolute empty space. With the radar shield activated, Robin's surprise fleet was in Eugene? Unbeknownst to Melo, Mellon penetrated deep into the heart of the triangular defense zone, entering the spaceport defense area that could pose a threat to the Hermes spaceport.

"General, we are currently fifteen light minutes away from the Hermes spaceport and have entered the farthest attack range of the 'Tomahawk' missile, Captain Boris asks for instructions on whether to attack?" While Robin was waiting in the communication room with Sean? As Alex was on the phone, a herald suddenly came to report.

"What's the reaction from the Hermes spaceport?" Robin asked casually with a slight pause.

"There is no reaction for the time being, I am afraid that the enemy has not yet realized our approach."

"Then there is no need to startle the snake, continue to maintain the full advance, and order the Rose formation in front to retreat, and the rear escort formation will be changed to the front formation, and prepare for the attack in a triangular offensive formation. Well...... Inform Major Barron to have his refueling fleet immediately refuel the retreating formation, and not retreat out of the battle sequence until all the fuel is replenished. ”

"Yes! ～”

After receiving Robin's accurate instructions, the herald saluted and immediately rushed to the bridge control tower to convey Robin's combat orders to all units.

While the combat units were ordered to act separately, the signal light in the communication room, which indicated that the communication was connected, had also turned green. Soon, Sean? Alex's avatar appears on the communication screen.

Wearing a silver-black uniform representing the status of the consul of the autonomous region, Sean in the picture? Alex saluted Robin and smiled, "Welcome back to Proxima Centauri, sir." ”

Compared to when he was just rescued by Robin from Othello, Sean, who is now back in power? Alex has regained its self-confidence. However, perhaps it is the experience of the past two years that has given him a lot of experience, and now Sean? Alex no longer has the shyness he had when he first met Robin, nor the extremely inflated arrogance that he had just achieved success, and he began to get closer and closer to his father Vincent? Alex, like Vincent? Alex is as calm and composed, and gradually has the unique temperament that can only be found in the life of a successful businessman and a successful politician.

Sharpening makes people grow, this sentence in Sean? Alex has been most aptly proven, and it is also the result of Robin's creation. But looking at the eyes of this with an indifferent smile Sean? Alex, Robin felt an invisible sense of distance, and he began to appear, maybe now Sean? Alex was no longer the ignorant young man he could use at his disposal.

Sighing silently in his heart, Robin looked at Sean in the picture? Alex also smiled: "The trouble here makes me have to come back." ”

Hear Robin's words, Sean? Alex didn't have as much as Blair? Rex was so panicked that he stared at Robin with a burning gaze, "You're going to fix the problem, and you're supposed to be doing it, right?" ”

"Yes." Robin nodded confidently and smiled, "However, I need your help." ”

"We're here to help."

"I need to know about those railguns in the orbital ring of Othello. I know that after Ansair annexed Alex Machinery by despicable means, it did not actually replace the railgun on a large scale, but only removed the label of Alex from the railgun and replaced it with the MK military factory. So, I know that you, the executor of the entire project, actually have to know about the orbital ring and the railguns that blocked the Patrium fleet's attack on Othello! Speaking of which, Robin stared at Sean in the picture with blazing eyes? Alex: "Tell me about the dead end of the railgun's defensive radius you designed. ”

Hear Robin's question, Sean? Alex suddenly frowned: "You want to attack Othello?" ”

"Othello is the key to this campaign, and I have to ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ］
