After 5 hours, Zhao's troops successfully repelled this premeditated surprise attack, annihilating most of the invading enemies in front of the door, but at the same time they also paid a lot of price.

In this operation, there was nothing to say about the special warfare that took place on the Star Fort, and the other party thought that they could suppress the defenders with just 200 reformed soldiers, but they were beaten by the special combat team led by Di Rui and couldn't find the north. All the invaders were wiped out, and only 37 of the special operations team were wounded, and none of them died.

But the space war is more difficult, and the main losses are also here!

In terms of losses, the capital ship Dellinger was heroically sunk, the destroyer lost nearly one-third, and more than half were wounded, only three were undamaged, and none of the rest of the light and heavy cruisers and battle cruisers were intact. Although the hulls of the two aircraft carriers sitting in the harbor were fine, Qinghai and Hongling fell into a state of obvious exhaustion due to the large loss of carrier-based aircraft.

It is worth mentioning that although the hull of the De Fllinger was riddled with holes, it seemed that it could fall apart at any time. But until the hull was towed back to the harbor by friendly forces, her assimilation status was not lifted.

The first aid squad found De Fleet, who had fallen into a coma, in the ruined bridge and carried her off the ship on a stretcher. Zhao Jian personally rushed to the berth area and sent the high-concentration energy essence he had hoarded before into De Frigel's body by direct injection, and the other party quickly woke up.

After the other party woke up, he first turned his head to look at his tattered hull, and laughed bitterly at himself.

"Looks like I've broken another one."

"Good work, Gotta Fringer! Don't worry, you'll be fine soon. ”

"The Admiral! For the sake of how hard I've been fighting, can you grant me a small request? ”

"Uh...... You say, as long as you don't go too far, I'll say yes. ”

"Shoot me! I've wanted to experience it for a long time! ”

“……”

Relying on the Star Fortress's ability to repair against the sky, the injured fleet returned to base, except for the Fringer. The rest of the ships were quickly restored to the point where they could fight again under urgent repairs, and the ships of the small broken Cheng were even completely revived in just a few hours.

Without knowing whether the enemy would launch a second attack, Zhao Jian did not dare to relax a little because of the victory.

The opponents they met this time were by no means the ordinary ones in the past, and the opponents were almost not much weaker than them at the technical level, and even had obvious advantages in some aspects, which made Zhao Jian, who was once fluttering because of these black technologies in his hands, feel alert.

And while licking the wounds, Zhao Jian, Thor and Chi You also took the time to look at the wreckage of the enemy ships that were recovered, but the results of the preliminary examination alone made Zhao Jian secretly frightened.

In this battle, the Zhao ship attacked a total of 15 enemy ships, including 8 destroyers, 6 light aircraft carriers, and 1 battleship. Comparison of Tortonguò databases. It can be determined that none of these battleships are left over from the ancients, but except for the battleship that caused them a lot of trouble, a non-god-core ship like Wo-chan was found, and the other 14 ships did not find a device such as a ship-girl or a god-core.

In other words, these battleships, which are quite remarkable in battle, are all "unmanned". This is not good news for Zhao Jian! Because this means that there may already be people who have the ability to build a spaceship without relying on the divine core, and this ability is not even possible for today's Zhao ship.

Most of the ancient human techniques preserved on the Star Castle came from the peak of this civilization before its end. Not to mention that the level is too high, and some special raw materials and astronomical energy supply that cannot be obtained now are also needed, so Zhao Jian has the technology, and he is not in a position to imitate it.

And another thing that made Zhao Jian feel puzzled was the place. is the constituent substance of these enemy ships.

After analyzing the composition of the wreckage in Tongguò, Thor found more than a dozen "foreign elements" that were not part of the known star field. Where did the other party get these raw materials, and where did the technology for building unmanned ships come from, it is still a mystery!

"How's that captive doing?"

"I'm still in a coma. However, the situation is quite stable. I didn't ask Thor to press the inhibition device on her, I just did a little isolation, so that she couldn't absorb energy from the outside world. ”

"Thor, dismantle her hull completely. Then it is thoroughly parsed. Whether it's a similar or completely different technology from ours, figure it out carefully. ”

"No problem!"

As he spoke, Thor flew towards the wreckage of the enemy ship, and did as Zhao said. Chi You leaned on the guardrail, looking at the tattered hull below and said.

"You want to reverse the other party's technique?"

"Absolutely! This battleship can increase the defensive capability of the position several times with only a coating less than 3 centimeters thick, and it is a fool who does not want this technology! There are also light cannons and power plants, which are rare good technologies, how can you afford this loss if you don't come over!? ”

"The question is what about after that? Are you really going to confront the forces behind them? ”

"I may have some clue about the forces behind the scenes. When I first joined the agency, my immediate boss told me about the 'shadow of the Western world'. The other party's existence is said to date back to B.C., almost with the entire process of Western civilization, secretly creating many major events that can affect the direction of history, but never came to the forefront. ”

"So you think this is the organization that got our idea?"

"Quite possibly! After the news of Star Castle's storage leaked, it was impossible for the other party to be unmoved. This attack may be underestimating our strength, or maybe it's just a bottom-up, but no matter what, as long as we continue to have Star Castle, it's already equivalent to fighting them. ”

Regarding the current situation, Zhao Jian saw it very clearly, and the other party encountered this time was the terrifying existence that even the Tang Empire felt troubled by. The other party's tentacles had just been touched, and although they were cut off by him, they were also injured.

How to say that the other party is also a super organization that has developed for thousands of years, and it must have a strong foundation. And Zhao Jian has only been in the business for a few years, and if he directly faces the hard anus, maybe he is really not an opponent. Therefore, when you are invincible, you must make good use of your advantages to outwit.

"Remember the enemy ship that escaped? I let her go on purpose, the destroyer's salvo has already marked her hull, and she will point us to the enemy's hiding place. When we're resting here, I'll take the fleet and go to have a good look! (To be continued......)
