Chapter 3 Key Signals

As a blinding white light flashed, the Bun burst out of the space jump channel.

Although it is not the first time to take the "Bun" to make a space jump, as always, Yang Yi has a feeling similar to motion sickness.

"Oh my God."

"Quick, get ready for battle!"

Hearing Zhong Lili and Lin Jia's exclamations, Yang Yi quickly came to his senses. He was also stunned when he saw the scene ahead.

The outpost was surrounded by dozens of Silicon Alliance warships, and the battle was still going on, with shells and bombs raining down and explosions constantly occurring. The outpost was also firing back, but the fire was very weak, and it did not pose a threat to the enemy ships around it, not even tickling.

"The 'bun' number is called 'old mother', please answer when you receive it."

"Rookie, why are you stunned? Are you planning to kill your enemies with your eyes, or are you going to swallow them with your mouth wide open? ”

was pushed by Zhong Lili, and Yang Yi came back to his senses violently.

"You're in charge of the laser cannon above, and you're fighting the enemy!" Zhong Lili quickly opened the weapon control interface.

Yang Yi dared to hesitate and immediately activated the weapon's control system.

The Bun has two laser cannons for self-defense, one on the belly and one on the back, forming a full range of defensive firepower. In addition to the need for one driver, the "Bun" required two gunners, so a field team consisted of three people.

The way to operate the laser cannon is very simple, just control it on the virtual interface, and the scene outside is projected directly in front of the operator.

"The enemy ship is out of range, don't open fire, follow my orders." Zhong Lili's tone is indispensable.

Yang Yi didn't say much, it was the first time he operated a laser cannon and the first time he participated in a battle, so he naturally had to obey the command and orders of the veteran.

"The 'bun' number calls ......"

"Lin Jia, it's me, Lao Luo."

"Lao Luo, we're back, where are you?"

"Don't come here, get out of here."

The projected image of Luo Qixing is very blurry, still shaking, and the communication quality is not very good, indicating that the communication has been interfered with.

"The enemy carried out full-band jamming and did not block directional communications for the time being. The post was attacked and was about to fall. You need to run away and send the news to the Theater Command and Fleet Command. The Silicon Alliance has invaded, and the Sixth Greenwich War has begun. ”

"Lao Luo, I can't leave you, I ......"

"This is an order, not for us, but for the entire Federation of Humans. You must send the word out so that the Federation is ready for war. ”

"But ......"

"No, but, carry out the order."

"Lao Luo ......"

Luo Shuxing had already turned around, but the communication had not been interrupted.

"Brothers, are you ready? The spurs of the Silicon Charm Alliance launched a surprise attack to wipe us out in one fell swoop. Let's kill it now, let those shuffles pay for the aggression, and let those shuffles see how good we are. Brothers, rush with me! ”

The image disappeared and communication was interrupted.

In the distance, a group of soldiers dressed in space combat suits and armed with electromagnetic guns rushed out of the outpost and rushed towards the enemy warship one after another.

Compared to the massive warships, the human warriors are too small.

Not even the laser cannon at the outpost could pose a threat to the enemy's warship, and how could an electromagnetic gun in the hands of a fighter pose a threat to the enemy ship?

"Sister Lin Jia, rush over!" Zhong Lili roared loudly.

The "Bun" was far from the battlefield, the enemy ships were outside the range of the laser cannons, and now firing could not pose a threat to the enemy ships at all. Seeing the comrades-in-arms who got along day and night rushing towards the enemy ship like moths to the fire, Zhong Lili was so anxious that she was about to vomit blood, and she couldn't wait to rush up immediately to fight the enemy.

It's just that the "bun" did not move on, but began to turn.

"Sister Lin Jia......"

"Lao Luo is right, we must send the news back and make the Federation ready for war, otherwise more people will be poisoned."

"But ......"

"We'll avenge them, but not now."

The "Bun" began to accelerate, but it was only affected by the battle, and the space was very unstable, and it was impossible to enter the jump passage.

"!" Zhong Lili cursed loudly and smashed her fist on the control panel of the weapon system.

Yang Yi's mood was also very heavy, the post was besieged by the enemy, and the commander, Major Luo Qixing, took the last group of officers and soldiers to launch a final assault, even if there were still some officers and soldiers alive in the outpost, they would be brutally killed by the enemy before the battle ended. In the war between the two camps, because the nature of life is completely different, there is no such thing as receiving prisoners of war. In five full-scale wars for thousands of years, neither side has taken prisoners. Although he has only been here for a month, and his relationship with the veterans is not harmonious, except for Lin Jia who has always taken good care of him, and Zhong Lili, who is hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, Yang Yi's relationship with other officers and soldiers is very average, but everyone lives under the same roof, not friends are comrades-in-arms. Thousands of comrades-in-arms died in front of him, even if Yang Yi was hard-hearted, it was difficult to calm down at this time.

Grief to grief, Yang Yi did not let down his vigilance.

As the "bun" turned, he turned the muzzle of the laser cannon to the rear, always aiming at the outpost and the enemy ships surrounding the outpost.

"Lili, it's not that I don't want to save them, but I can't help it, we ......"

"Sister Lin Jia, I understand, I don't need to explain." Although Zhong Lili has a straightforward personality, she is not unaware of priorities.

"Be careful!"

Hearing Yang Yi's shout, Zhong Lili immediately opened the control interface of the laser cannon.

"At six o'clock, three enemy planes approached at high speed. Sister Lin Jia, we have been discovered. ”

"See, fire freely."

Lin Jia gave an order, and Yang Yi immediately pulled the trigger and fired at the enemy plane in front. It was a bat-type space fighter, fast and very nimble. Although Yang Yi's reaction was very fast and the firepower of the laser cannon was also fierce, it failed to hit the enemy plane.

"Rookie, aim and fight, don't waste ammo!"

"Mind your own business."

Yang Yi saw it very clearly, Zhong Lili also missed, and the speed of light shot by her grazed past an enemy plane, without causing damage to the enemy.

In fact, the laser cannon does not fire a cannonball, but the speed of light, that is, energy.

The Bun has only one Elemental Energy Converter, which powers everything from thrusters to laser cannons. In other words, if the laser cannon consumes too much energy, the energy supplied to the thrusters will be reduced, and the speed of the ship will not be able to go faster.

"Rookie, you're embarrassed to say me, I at least almost hit, what about you?"

"Fifty steps and a hundred steps, what is the difference between a little bit and a lot, they all missed." Yang Yi is fed up with Zhong Lili's hot sneer, and he can usually restrain himself, but now he is highly nervous, and he will not go through his brain when he speaks, and he will say his true thoughts at once.

"You dare to laugh at my sister, I ......"

"Shut up, both of you!" Lin Jia is on fire. "Aim and fire, don't waste energy. Put on an oxygen mask and turn off the life support system after ten seconds. That's three Firebats, and if we don't take them down, we're doomed." ”

Yang Yi dared to hesitate, and immediately put on an oxygen mask.

Protected by an energy barrier and turned off the life support system, the temperature in the cabin of the "Bun" will not drop quickly, it will last at least ten minutes, but the oxygen will soon run out. In other words, Yang Yi and the others had to shoot down the three enemy planes they were pursuing within ten minutes.

"Rookie, the enemy plane at three o'clock, you fire to the right, I'll fire to the left, see how it dodges."

"Understood."

"Three, two, one, fire!"

Both pulled the trigger at the same time, and two laser cannons fired deadly beams at the same time.

Attacked, the "Firebat" fighter immediately turned to evade, only to hit headlong on the beam on the right side, cut in half by a high-energy laser.

"Sister Lili, how is it? I don't think you should call me a rookie. "It was the laser cannon controlled by Yang Yi who hit the enemy plane.

"Rookie, just after the next enemy plane, your ass will be up to the sky?"

"How many enemy planes have you shot down?"

Zhong Lili was speechless, this was the first battle she had participated in, and there was no record to show off.

"Have you two had enough of arguing? And two more ......"

Before Lin Jia could finish his words, the spaceship shook violently.

Two enemy planes approaching from the right were firing ferociously, and dozens of shells hit the "bun". Yang Yi and Zhong Lili dared to delay, and immediately opened fire on the two enemy planes.

"Alarm, alarm, No. 2 steering thruster failure, steering system failure."

The steering thrusters were damaged, and the "Bun" was unable to maneuver and became a live target for enemy aircraft.

"Go to the escape pod."

"Sister Lin Jia......"

"Leave me alone, I need to get the message out." Lin Jia didn't look back, and was typing instructions on the control panel.

"No, I'm not leaving, I'm going to go together, I won't leave you." Zhong Lili had already stood up, very stubborn, and made it clear that she would not obey Lin Jia's orders.

"Xiao Yang, what are you going to do?" Lin Jia suddenly turned around and looked behind Zhong Lili. Zhong Lili was startled, quickly turned around, and immediately found out that she had been fooled.

Lin Jia didn't give her a chance, and when she turned around, he slammed his palm on the back of her neck.

It all came so fast that Yang Yi had just left his seat.

"Take her to the escape pod."

"But ......"

"It's an order." Lin Jia pushed Zhong Lili into Yang Yi's arms. "Even if you escape the ship now, if reinforcements don't arrive in time, you'll only have a few hours longer than me. Promise me that if you're lucky enough to survive, kill all the shitty members of the Silicon Charm Alliance and avenge me. ”

"I'll be waiting for you in the escape pod." Yang Yi knew the priorities and didn't argue with Lin Jia.

After Lin Jia nodded in agreement, Yang Yi picked up Zhong Lili and ran towards the lifesaving cabin.

Outside, the two "Firebat" fighters had turned around and flew back, continuing to fire at the "Bun".

Inside the cockpit, Lin Jia activated the directional communication equipment, aimed the antenna at the nearest post No. 7778, and sent out the news of the attack. The anti-interference ability of directional communication is very strong, but the communication distance is limited, and it cannot be used for communication between posts in theory. Lin Jia had no other way but to send out the news with the mentality of giving it a try, hoping that Sentinel 7778 would receive the signal.
