The spaceships on the airport are taking off one after another, even if there are still people who don't have time to get on the ship, they can't take care of it, and the poignant jǐng sound that resounded everywhere in the airport seems to be a note of urgency.

There were many people who didn't have time to get on the ship, looking at the departing spaceship, or jumping to their feet and scolding, or howling and crying, and the whole airport was in chaos.

Glancing at the mess on the field, Jiang Ping didn't pay much attention to it, thought about it, and walked quickly towards the airport command tower in the distance.

He needs to understand the situation first, how many AI rebels are coming, and whether this place can be held for the time being, and then make plans.

Ore stars like Crystal Rock Star generally do not have many troops stationed in peacetime, and generally like the X18 base where they used to be, it is a miniature military base, and the strength of a platoon is stationed.

Of course, this place is close to Caiyunxing, it belongs to a prosperous area, far from being comparable to the wild and remote area like MX112, maybe there will be more troops, but at most there can be a company of troops stationed in the sky.

Such a force is quite weak. A company, generally only equipped with one medium-sized warship, three small warships, and the rest of the auxiliary ships, it is enough to maintain the security of the surrounding airspace in peacetime, and it is enough to win when encountering a small group of pirates, but if it really wants to encounter a big battle, it is basically unable to form the ability to attack twice, and it is killed in seconds in the first round of artillery fire.

With the wisdom of artificial intelligence, since he dares to come, he will naturally send sufficient superior forces to ensure the chance of victory.

However, Jiang Ping still had a few hopes for this, and the large cruiser was the variable in this encounter.

That large cruiser should have appeared here by accident, and artificial intelligence has no last resort. It is impossible to predict such a sudden variable, of course, the existence of this large cruiser, they may know the way, but they do not necessarily know the whereabouts of the other party, and they cannot predict that the other party will appear here.

So this one encounter. There may be hope of winning.

In front of the gate of the control tower at the airport, there was a small group of soldiers guarding it, and when they saw Jiang Ping coming, they didn't make any moves, and a sergeant in the lead saluted him.

Jiang Ping ignored them and walked directly into the door.

It's no wonder that the soldiers guarding the gate are no wonder. If in normal times. Even if it was a second lieutenant officer, this is the center of the command tower, they will definitely have to check each other's IDs.

But when is it now, when the soldiers are in chaos, the jǐng newspaper at the airport is still screaming violently, although the faces of the people who come are unfamiliar. But the soldiers took the visitor for an officer on the cruiser.

Now that the cruisers above have become all their hopes, how dare they offend easily, if you ask more, what if you delay the emergency military situation?

So the soldiers didn't ask a word and let them go.

After entering the command tower, Jiang Ping went straight to the command hall on the top floor, and there were also soldiers standing guard along the road. But they were all let go all the way.

Come to the command hall. There were about twenty people in the hall, each busy. In front of a huge screen in the hall, there stood a lieutenant with two stars, who should be the supreme commander here.

Now the lieutenant was staring at the screen in the hall, his brows were tightly locked, and he didn't even know what Jiang Ping had said when he walked in.

It was a second lieutenant next to him who gently touched him with his elbow, and he noticed the strange second lieutenant who walked in.

Jiang Ping walked up to the other party and gave a military salute, and the other party returned the salute.

Jiang Ping didn't talk much nonsense. Asked directly: "Lieutenant, how is the situation now?"

The lieutenant apparently took him for an officer on a cruiser. Although it was unfamiliar, he still remembered that this was the second lieutenant officer on the small warship that had just asked to land.

Just now, when Jiang Ping's small warship asked to land, it was connected to the ground navigation system and talked. showed a face, so the lieutenant still remembered.

The lieutenant looked solemn and said: "The situation is very bad, according to the preliminary radar monitoring, the number of rebels who came this time is three medium-sized warships and more than 30 small warships."

Jiang Ping was shocked when he heard this, this rebel army was menacing, and for the sake of this spar star, so many ships were dispatched.

It stands to reason that with the garrison power of this spar star, it is completely unnecessary for the AI to send so many troops, unless they are bound to win here, and this place is very important to them, so they do not hesitate to send additional troops to ensure that they will win the battle.

His mind raced, and he asked in a deep voice, "How many troops do we have to participate in the battle?"

When the lieutenant heard this, he thought that the other party was asking for their support, smiled bitterly, and said: "There are really no troops on the ground, in order to rescue the civilians here, the base has sent all the ships that can move, and there is indeed no combat strength anymore......"

Jiang Ping frowned and said, "So, we only have one cruiser on it now?"

The lieutenant nodded heavily.

Jiang Ping turned his head, looked at the big screen in front of the hall, and looked at the rebel ship that was rushing over under the black pressure, and his heart quickly circled.

The combat power of a large cruiser is naturally beyond doubt, but the enemy is also violent, although there is not a single large ship, but the firepower of three medium-sized ships and more than 30 small ships is still very fierce.

In the face of the wolf pack tactics of a large number of incoming enemies, even if the combat power of a large cruiser is strong, it is still inevitable to suffer a big loss and lose the upper hand when fighting alone.

If Jiang Ping was the captain of this large cruiser, he would be more than ninety percent sure that he would win this encounter, but if it was commanded by the current lieutenant commander, Jiang Ping would not be optimistic about the outcome of this encounter.

It's not that he discriminates and looks down on the other party, but it's a fact that he came to after calculation.

What is the enemy who comes, not some rabble, it is the rebels of artificial intelligence! What are the advantages of artificial intelligence? Be jīng accurate, efficient, fast, and hardly make any mistakes!

It can be said that this group of enemies who came was much more powerful than the Federation's most sharp fleet! All of them have super powerful computing power, accurate judgment, super fast reaction speed, super strong execution, super strong group combat ability, and they will hardly make any mistakes, and they are even not afraid of death, without any weaknesses in ordinary people.

They came with only one purpose, to destroy the enemy in front of them and occupy the planet in front of them, at any cost!

This is undoubtedly a terrible enemy. Thinking of this, Jiang Ping suddenly shuddered, and he realized that maybe his estimate just now was too optimistic, even if he controlled the large cruiser, the odds of winning might not be so high.

After all, the other party is a brand-new artificial intelligence unit, and it is still impossible to predict how much combat effectiveness it can show.

But no matter what, he knew that letting a large cruiser go to the menacing wolves on the other side was tantamount to feeding the tigers, and there would be no chance of victory.

He would never tolerate such a thing, if this battle was lost and the cruiser was destroyed, it would mean that the planet had completely fallen, and now everyone on the planet would be trapped here, unable to escape, including himself.

"No, we have to support the cruisers!"

Jiang Ping stared at the lieutenant in front of him, his eyes became a little fierce, and he said in a deep voice: "Lieutenant, there are still warships on the ground, isn't it?"

Under the fierce gaze of the other party, a few hints of hesitation flashed on the lieutenant's face.

Jiang Ping asked in a loud voice again, "Lieutenant, tell me, there are still warships on the ground, aren't they?"

His attitude can be said to be very rude, but at this time, no one cares about him.

The lieutenant gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "There is another medium-sized warship on the ground......"

Jiang Ping's eyes lit up when he heard this, he thought it would be good to have a small warship, but he didn't expect that there would be a medium-sized warship, which made him overjoyed.

The medium-sized warship that the other party said should be the only medium-sized warship in this small base, and the other party kept it, and it should also be prepared for their own escape.

At this time, the lieutenant said: "But it is useless to have a ship, there is not enough equipped troops, and now there are less than 100 people in the entire base, except for the personnel who must be reserved on the ground, there are less than 30 personnel who can maneuver and fight, and it is impossible to give full play to the combat effectiveness of the warship......

Jiang Ping waved his hand, stopped what the other party was about to say, and said, "Lieutenant, don't say anything else, now please take me to that medium-sized warship immediately, I will drive it to the battle!"

The lieutenant's face changed when he heard this, and he stood there for a while but did not move, and the dozen or so officers and soldiers around him also showed nervousness, staring at the young ensign in front of him, and the tense atmosphere in the hall suddenly rose sharply.

Jiang Ping's gaze swept across the hall, and he knew everyone's reactions.

This medium-sized warship was the only warship that these people had left to escape for their lives, and they naturally refused to hand it over easily.

His face sank, and he said in a loud voice: "The fact that you can still stay here is enough to prove that you are qualified federal soldiers who stick to your posts and fight to the end." Now we are all people in the same boat, and everyone should understand in their hearts that now all of our hopes are on this cruiser above, and as long as the cruiser defeats the incoming enemy, we still have hope of escaping. ”

"But have you ever thought that if we lose this battle and the cruiser is destroyed, then will we all have a way out, and what is the use of having more ships left? All of us were still taken prisoner, and the ships were cheapened by the rebels! ”

"Now our goal is to do everything we can to win the battle in front of us, and not to have any other thoughts!"

When the lieutenant heard this, his face twitched a few times, and his heart was obviously still hesitating and struggling. They can still hold on here, indeed with a glimmer of hope, hoping that the cruisers above can defeat the incoming enemy, then they still have hope of escaping.

But if the cruiser fails, they will indeed have no way to escape, and they will definitely end up being captured by the rebels, or even killed directly.
