Chapter 38: Decapitation (Part II)

The Lady Liberty, the flagship of the Second Fleet, is also one of the three existing Tier 6 civilization flagships of mankind, and is the most powerful secondary capital ship of the fleet, along with the Great Wall of the First Fleet and the Stonehenge of the Third Fleet. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 The reason why info is said to be secondary is mainly compared to the four giants of Earth, Venus, Mars and Mercury. According to the rules of the Salvation Organization, the fleet commanders of Starfleet have the right to name their ships, hence the strange names given to these three ships. This wind is still blowing from Vice Admiral Zhang Zheng, Zhang Zheng's original intention is that his fleet will be a great wall of the universe to protect the safety of the entire fleet, as a result, Bernard and Wilson have a deviation in understanding, they think that Zhang Zheng named the ship according to the places of interest in the mother country, so they are not far behind, Wilson directly made a long-history Stonehenge in the name, but Vice Admiral Bernard was entangled, because there is no so-called scenic spot in the United States, there is no way, the lame man picks the general, just the Lady Liberty, Anyway, she was also established when the United States was founded.

This time it was finally my turn to show what I was capable of, Bernard sat on the podium and thought passionately. The five-star admiral who was the commander-in-chief of the U.S. Pacific Fleet at the time in this earth era has been useless since taking over the Second Fleet, and all the limelight has been stolen by Zhang Zheng's kid. There is no way, who makes the First Fleet the main combat force of the fleet, all sixth-level battleships, all the soldiers are fully loaded, all the supplies are completely sufficient, and the run-in of the fleet is also carried out the best. Looking at his second fleet, except for the flagship and the flagship of the sub-fleet, which are sixth-level battleships, all the others are pseudo-sixth-level battleships. This is not enough, but what is worse is that the operations personnel of the fleet are barely filled, and the combat personnel are even more lacking. Whenever he saw the fleet's ten huge aerospace aircraft carriers and the neatly arranged aerospace fighters, he was in a surging mood, but when he saw the pilots of the deserted squadron in the aircraft carrier, Bernard's heart cooled. He has commanded the aircraft carrier battle formation for most of his life, and he is very worried about this embarrassment of having empty planes and no pilots. Is an aircraft carrier formation without pilots still called an aircraft carrier formation? But he can also understand the difficulties of the fleet, and if he is in the position of leadership, he will also make such an arrangement. After all, there are too few qualified air-space combat pilots. It's just that Bernard is not angry with Zhang Zheng, the young man who has taken shit luck, this candidate aircraft carrier captain who has not really commanded an aircraft carrier formation in actual combat until the national construction regime withdraws from history, has become the commander of the First Fleet. Bernard felt he was better suited for the position than Zhang Zheng. However, the founder of the salvation organization is Chinese.

"Humph! This time, let's take a look at Bernard's conducting art! I'm the best person to be the commander of the First Fleet," Bernard thought to himself. "But now all this is not important, after this war, there will be everything, when a large number of battleships, cruisers, destroyers and frigates will be added, plus the service of those recruits who are urgently training, it will not be long before the Second Fleet will grow. I'm going to prove that I'm the best. Thinking of the post-war expansion of the fleet's forces, Bernard's eyes lit up.

"Inform the location of the fleet!" Bernard came to his senses and ordered the combat staff officer.

"Your Excellency, the fleet broke out of hyperspace five minutes ago, and is now rushing towards the enemy's line at maximum speed, and it is expected to encounter the first wave of the enemy in fifteen minutes." Staff Officer reported.

"Where is the Third Fleet?" Bernard asked, looking at the star map.

"The Third Fleet is in the second quadrant of the fleet and is currently rushing towards the enemy." The staff officer responded.

"Order the fleet to jump to the enemy's rear immediately thirty minutes after engaging the enemy, and not jump too far ahead. After the next encounter, contact for twenty minutes, and continue to jump in depth. After that, every time you engage the enemy, you have to shorten the time of contact with the enemy, jump and rush to the enemy's main body, and directly reach the predetermined position, then stop advancing and defend in place. Bernard ordered.

"What kind of tactic is this?" The staff officer asked suspiciously.

"The cosmic version of the frog jumping tactics and the reduction of the art of war." Bernard explained.

"The number of enemies is too huge, if we advance gradually, we will face a large number of enemies, although our warships are more advanced than theirs, but the ants bite the elephants, and when the time comes, they will hit us with warships, and they can crash hundreds of our warships into space garbage. Even if they can't, they can at least consume our energy, and if they can't even do that, as long as they put a large number of warships on our route, how can we get there? In this case, the subject will feel that we have nothing difficult to deal with, it will not have a sense of urgency, it must let it know that we can pose a mortal threat to it, that its fleet will not be very effective against us, and that it will have to invest a large number of warships to block us in the way of the fleet's advance. And we can't push too hard, if it's too fast, the subject will think that there is no hope of victory, and in this way, it will abandon these ships and flee on its own. This is very detrimental to the implementation of our plan. Therefore, we have to gradually shorten the time of resistance, which will give the subject the illusion that we are about to hold on, and at the same time we will jump closer, and the subject will think that our technology is not much more advanced than it, that we are still far from reaching its position, that it is safe. And we exposed the space jump technology, which is fatally attractive to the subject, artificial intelligence does not have the ability to create, their technology will always be in the beginning state, and even minor changes to the battleship will not be possible. If you want to get technology, you have to loot intelligent beings. And we happen to be the ones it can easily plunder. The technology is advanced, the number is small, and it is completely capable of dealing with it. With such food in front of you, will it still leave? No, it will only do its best to destroy us and plunder our technology. For it, those ships are completely objects that can be discarded at any time, and only technology is the most important. Bernard said proudly as he looked at the staff committee's adoring gaze.

"Ding! Bite! Bite! ......" The piercing battle siren sounded, followed by an overwhelming beam of energy cannons, and countless cannon fire caused ripples in the fleet's energy shield, but this energy intensity was still a long way from breaking the fleet's shield.

"Order the engineering ship to turn 90 degrees, go out of the fleet as a combat unit, and the frigate pay attention to protecting the safety of the engineering ship." Bernard ordered.

Huge engineering ships rushed to the battlefield at a rapid pace, erecting them at the front of the fleet like huge shields. The shuttle-type frigates came out halfway forward, like pikemen armed with spears, firmly guarding the vicinity of the engineering ship and protecting the safety of the engineering ship. Countless white energy cannon beams shot into the armor of the engineering ship, and then quickly disappeared, and it didn't take long for the surface of the engineering ship to grow a low crystal jungle, and it grew at a rapid speed, and the naked eye saw that clusters of biological crystals grew rapidly, constantly growing tall and strong, and the color was constantly changing. At first, the biocrystals were only transparent, but after they reached a certain stage, the growth rate slowed down, and then the color continued to darken. It transitions from colorless to pink, to purple-red to deep red, then to turquoise, blue, gray-black, purple. It didn't stop changing color until it turned dark purple, and then it continued to grow, growing taller and bigger, and maybe it won't be long before a crystal forest grows on the engineering ship.

When one side of the engineering ship was completely covered with a dark purple crystal jungle, the engineering ship came with a flip, and soon, there were also biological crystals growing on the other side. During this period, the enemy also adopted other offensive methods, the most direct of which was that the battleship overloaded its engines and rammed the engineering ship, but they were all destroyed by the frigate on the way.

Thirty minutes passed quickly, and with Bernard's order, the entire fleet disappeared in a flash of light, and countless white beams of light could pass straight through the fleet's phantom. In a flash of space, the fleet reappeared in the depths of the mechanical civilization interception fleet, and the first batch of interception fleets would need to be overloaded with warp engines for at least thirty minutes to arrive. But it didn't take long for another interceptor fleet to arrive next to the main body, and then the previous scene was staged again. Twenty minutes later, the fleet flashed and disappeared again, and the battle was progressing at Bernard's pace......
