Chapter 75: Just in Case
"Hechuan-kun, what does this mean, are you underestimating the strength of the Jiaolong?"
Shi Yuan didn't think that Hechuan, who had a feminine personality, would compete with him for the opportunity to meet the enemy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He just felt offended, the blood of the Imperial soldiers was flowing in his body, and any attempt to stop or slow him down his rush towards the enemy would be seen as hostile to him.
He Chuan paused, and took a half-step back, his colleague's weakness made him feel better, and then Shi Yuan began to hide the excessively sharp light in his eyes.
"I didn't mean to offend Shi Yuanjun, but I felt that it was a trap. The enemy sent only one starship, most likely to divert the main force of our fleet and decompress the Drondal Starbase. I hope the captain of the fleet will be able to see clearly. ”
The second half of Kawakawa's sentence was directly addressed to Tada Jun, leaving Shi Yuan aside, and this little trick of revenge annoyed him. Out of respect for the captain, he didn't refute anything, and stood aside, waiting for Tada's decision.
"It's a possibility. Even then, we should pay attention to this enemy ship. The two of them had never fought against the Branded starship, and they didn't know how powerful the core of civilization was. I can't let such a powerful enemy ship do whatever it takes to rear, or it would be too damaging to the fleet's supplies. ”
Both battleship captains were silent. The Imperial soldiers, as brave as they were, had to abide by the basic rules of the battlefield, and the expeditionary fleet was far from home and penetrated into the heart of the enemy country. Supplies, troop supplies, starship maintenance, etc., have gradually become major problems that plague them. Although the fleet has won every battle since it entered the solar system, and it has been a great victory, they still really feel the inconvenience caused by the gradual accumulation of supplies. Presumably, as the war continues, the supply problem will become more serious.
Seeing that the two were silent, Tada Jun continued, "Battleships are the combat core of the fleet, and they can't be easily led by the nose. I have sent Fukuda-kun's strike detachment to the direction of Lagrange first, and I will also send a destroyer detachment to try to lock down the enemy ships. According to past examples, the performance of the Brande starship is too powerful, and I believe that Fukuda's strength will not be able to help it, and two people will need to make a move at that time. ”
。。。。。。
At 9:55, Fukuda, commander of the strike detachment, was sitting on the bridge of the flagship, the Furuyabusa. His mind wandered into the battle of the past, when he was young, he followed Chief Tada Jun to the Star Field Battlefield. The first battle with the Brand's starship was indescribable.
He turned to the surveillance footage of the various units of the fleet, and all five Guying-class cruisers were majestic and majestic. After really facing the Branded starship, how much can this kind of majesty and domineering be maintained? Then he shook his head and put aside his thoughts, he couldn't fall into pessimistic fatalism, he had already experienced a hundred battles, and the soldiers under his command had been tested for a long time, and the gap in performance was made up by the technical and tactical level, he didn't believe that a few people in the solar system, driving the Branded starship, would really be the same as the Brandians.
"Sir, all types of detection equipment have not found enemy ships, please instruct."
The conclusion of the detection equipment is not surprising, advanced enemy ships, naturally, have a way to hide in the dark void, if it can be detected so easily, what kind of shock.
"It doesn't matter, from now on, each ship launches drones and searches one by one in grid blocks. The fleet turned and made a large-scale revolution along the arc track of the L1 point of Lagrange to ensure that the distance between the detachment and the L1 point was within 10,000 kilometers. ”
With Fukuda's order, up to three digits of unmanned probes were shot out of the fleet, and at close range, the light spots of the detector vents densely formed a huge wall of light, and as they moved away, the wall of light dissipated in a little flicker, and finally darkness engulfed everything.
The strike detachment reduced its speed to 1 cosmic speed, completed the turn, formed a column, and sped along a certain huge arc track.
。。。。。。
At the same time, it is closer to the Lagrange L1 point, less than 5,000 kilometers, almost to the edge of the abandoned spaceport. A reconnaissance team consisting of 8 Stardust-class destroyers quickly flashed into the Tranquility's sphere of influence, and hundreds of drone probes quickly distributed to every corner of the spaceport. Among the destroyer squadrons, two ships were divided into two ships and went to the spaceport headquarters, and the other six ships were scattered and searched in different directions with the spaceport as the center.
The commander of the destroyer detachment, Shimada, did not know until now what kind of enemy he was about to face. The subordinates quarreled in the communication circuit, and some said that nearly 100 warships of the enemy's three fleets surrounded the moon fortress and were waiting to close it, and the detachment was making a way out. It is also said that the Woolf Star Domain broke through the absolute defense circle of the Empire, and their fleet pressed into the solar system, wanting to annihilate the Imperial fleet with one body. Even more outrageous speculation was that Lagrange's Lieutenant General Watanabe betrayed the empire, and the main task of the detachment was to prevent its escape.
Shimada stopped the divergence of his subordinates' thoughts in time, but the doubts in his heart couldn't stop. Who is the enemy behind it, and where is it? He was ordered to participate in the operation to seek the enemy after the strike detachment, so he understood that Commander Tada Jun was very jealous of the enemy, and the instructions given to the detachment were also to seek the enemy, and once it was found that nothing could be done, it would immediately evacuate.
The Imperial Army is a professional army with the motto of courage and pride, and the spirit of daring to fight has always been a quality highly respected by the base camp, so hearing from the commander that he can't fight and run is enough for him to be fully vigilant against the enemy's strength.
Although he could escape, Shimada didn't think he should do so, and the Imperial soldiers, when they died, they should face the enemy and never be wounded in the back. He secretly determined that after discovering the enemy, even if there was a huge difference in strength, he would play the prestige of the imperial soldiers.
At 10 o'clock sharp, the Shimada destroyer detachment dispersed to seek the enemy. The smart stardust-level sensing device is fully open, and no small signal is missed.
。。。。。。
The Spaceport Command, where the remnants of the 11th and 16th Divisions and the Military Police Logistics Department gathered, totaled 9,421 people, compared with the number of more than 110,000 troops left behind, the loss ratio was more than 9 percent. The most important thing is that in the remaining troops, all the senior officers have been killed, leaving only the military rank to support the scene independently of Nakasa Mitsui.
Mitsui is still the same lean appearance, but he is even weaker. When he was ordered to investigate the cause of the death of the Imperial Liaison Officer, he narrowly escaped. Suddenly, there were riots of solar system people on each space station, and it was impossible to contact the commander, so Mitsui resolutely ordered to block the headquarters and gather all the solar system people in the control area.
He knew very well that the vast majority of these people were solar people who had sincerely defected to the Empire, and those who had different intentions had already joined the Resistance. Knowing that he knows, he still can't rest assured. He couldn't risk letting them stay in the headquarters, because if someone attacked them from within, the remaining forces of the empire would really be wiped out.
On the main road connected by the space station dock, nearly 1,000 people from the solar system gathered in one place at the request of the military, including men and women. Many people had already seen that something was wrong, and the crowd was full of whispers, and more and more people were clamoring for an explanation from the Imperial Army.
Soon the Imperial Army arrived, along with heavily armed chariots and groups of armed soldiers.
In the crowd, several prestigious people walked out and stopped between the crowd and the Imperial army amid the sound of the Imperial guards.
"Boss, we are not traitors and will not do anything bad for the Empire. Please make it convenient, we would like to see the current commander. ”
The embarrassment lasted for five minutes. During this time, the clamor in the crowd intensified, and the Imperial Army continued to prepare their weapons as they were.
The representatives of the people of the solar system, sensing the abnormality of the situation, tried to retreat into the crowd, and when they wanted to retreat into the crowd, the shrill howls pierced the people's eardrums. Immediately on the main road, the crowd erupted in exclamations and screams. A cloud of blood rose into the air, and as the explosions continued, the severed limbs and shrapnel scattered in all directions. The crowd of people standing in dense positions is particularly vulnerable in front of special weapons for people.
In less than five minutes, the whistling of weapons came to an abrupt halt, and the scene was deadly silent. None of the nearly 1,000 people survived.
