Chapter 1516: Desperate Counterattack
"Brothers, the battle plan has changed!The fleet will immediately slow down, and the energy will be concentrated to supply the bow shield!" Tesla's face remained unchanged after receiving the order, but he already understood his situation in his heart.
Although no one wants to be used as bait, as a soldier, Tesla certainly understands that someone will have to make sacrifices for the sake of victory, and today, this person who has been sacrificed is him!
"Let the psychic master supply all the psychic energy to the shield, whether we can survive or not, and how much we can survive, depends on the speed of the brother troops!" Tesla ordered.
For a moment, the left flank fleet began to slow down, and at the same time, their bow shield became brighter and brighter.
"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......" was another round of shelling, and several frigates were destroyed, because of the addition of psionic divisions, the warship defense of the Odra Empire skyrocketed, and the Dawn was on the march at this time, and the hit rate inevitably decreased, so the loss of Tesla's fleet this time was not as big as before.
"My lord, the other side is coming at us!" At this time, the radar crew of the Tesla fleet also discovered the movement of the Fifth Fleet.
"Come on, it's better for them to take the initiative to move closer to us, so that the fleet on the right flank can complete the encirclement faster!" Tesla nodded slightly.
"Sister, there are still five hundred light-seconds left from the enemy's left flank fleet, and our fleet is about to enter attack range!" said Lux to Aurelia at this time.
"Order the Gray Horse-class drone carrier to release the drone formation, the cobalt alloy corvette to shrink its defense, and the guard air defense ship to pay attention to intercepting the enemy's drone. "Aurelia gave the order in an orderly manner, hesitating that the other ships of the Fifth Fleet were scum, if they all came into attack range, then it was obvious that the enemy would be able to hit them.
With the issuance of O'Relia's order, the Fifth Fleet behind the Dawn immediately began to release drones, and more than a dozen Gray Horse-class drone carriers were carrying two drone squadrons, and in an instant, a large number of drones took off, pressing to the front of the fleet like dark clouds.
The small and nimble drones were extremely fast, and they quickly broke away from the fleet and swooped down on the opposite Tesla fleet.
"My lord, the other side has released a large number of drones!" At the same time, Tesla's adjutant also began to report on the situation of the battle.
"Is the other party an aircraft carrier fleet?" Tesla frowned, it stands to reason that the fleet composed of drone carriers does not have too strong direct firepower, they generally rely on the ultra-long-range combat of drones, and they themselves hide in the distance to practice kite tactics.
But today, Tesla is facing a fleet that not only has extremely strong firepower, but also takes the initiative to attack, which is very puzzling.
"Release the drone fighter to intercept!" Although puzzled, Tesla still gave the order to respond.
"Whoosh...... Tesla's fleet also has a large number of drones set sail to intercept the Fifth Fleet's drone swarm.
Dozens of seconds later, the two groups of planes encountered, fighter jets fought endlessly in the air, and the unmanned bombers of the Fifth Fleet went straight to the Tesla fleet.
In the face of the threat of bombers, the unmanned fighters of the Tesla fleet must not be released, and they tried their best to intercept and destroy these bombers, but the unmanned fighters of the Fifth Fleet escorting the bombers were not vegetarians, and for a time the massive drone swarm was entangled together.
"No! The other party is an aircraft carrier fleet, and there are too many drones, we can't stop it!" Tesla frowned, although he also has several drone mother ships for support and air defense, but because the number is too small, the drones carried cannot be entangled with the enemy for a long time.
"Order, salvo of the main guns of the fleet, and the airspace of the engagement of the drone in front of the target!"
"Order! Move the defense ship forward to the bow of the fleet and intercept the remaining enemy drones as much as possible!"
After Tesla gave the order, the entire left flank fleet immediately reacted, and the main guns of all the ships were fired in unison, and there was no need to aim and lock on anything, just bombard the battlefield entangled by drones!
"Boom, boom, boom, boom ......" energy beams flew by, and in an instant, the entangled drone battlefield was plowed empty, and more than ninety percent of the drones were vaporized, whether it was the drone formation of the Fifth Fleet or the interceptor drones of the Tesla fleet.
But this behavior of cannons and big mosquitoes, there will always be fish that slip through the net, and there is no entanglement of intercepting UAVs, and the remnants of the bombers again increased their speed and pounced on Tesla's fleet!
......The defense ship at the front end of the fleet fired, they are equipped with high-frequency laser weapons with a very fast rate of fire, this invincible range is short, the power is small, and the fighting ship is basically no different from tickling, but it is very efficient to fight drones.
And each defense ship is equipped with dozens of high-frequency laser weapons, so the effect is the same as a shotgun hitting a sparrow, a dozen is a piece!
However, the number of drones in the Fifth Fleet is too large, even if the defense ships intercept some of them with high-frequency laser weapons, there are still hundreds of bombers that have broken through the blockade!
The "boom, boom, boom......" bombers poured out the cyclops missiles!
"My lord, Yoshino, the Zoro has been sunk!" the adjutant's voice was very painful, although Tesla's fleet had lost several warships before, but the two that had just been sunk were heavy cruisers, one of the core and main forces of the fleet, and they were also Tesla's most valuable home.
"Hmm!" Tesla just nodded faintly, since he was acting as a bait, he had already prepared in his heart, not to mention the two heavy cruises, even if his flagship was destroyed, he would follow the funeral, Tesla was mentally prepared.
The high-frequency laser weapons of the "Boom ......" defense spacecraft are still firing, and a large number of bombers and fighters of the Fifth Fleet have been blown up, but these bombers are also constantly pouring their own missiles before they are blown up.
"Boom, boom, boom...... several frigates and light cruisers were destroyed, which made the corners of Tesla's mouth twitch slightly.
"High energy reaction ahead! Dodge!" At this time, the fleet alarm sounded, and it was obvious that the main gun of the Dawn was fully charged again!
"Boom, boom, boom......" Several light warships were blown up, and at this time Tesla's fleet had been crippled, and the combat strength of the entire fleet was less than 40% of what it was in its heyday, and they have not yet entered their own range!
In other words, his fleet is about to be annihilated, and Tesla and his fleet have not fought back, so the grievances can be imagined.
"Damn! Even if I die, I have to fight this group of bastards! Give me the whole army a shot!" The red-eyed Tesla immediately ignored Adams' order to slow down, seeing that the enemy fleet was about to enter his range, but his own fleet was not much left, and if he continued to consume it like this, I am afraid that he Tesla would not even have a chance to counterattack!
