Chapter 586: Stubborn Resistance
The power of the 8-U high-frequency laser cannon is really strong, and it shoots down tens of thousands of predators in less than two minutes of battle.
However, there are too many predators for the vanguard to cope with. After destroying a batch of bugs, another batch rushed up, as if these bugs could not be finished.
Ten minutes into the battle, there were few frigates left in the vanguard, and the enemy's robots were fighting more and more.
Seeing this scene, the officers and soldiers of the empire were so anxious that they had lost so many comrades in just ten minutes.
A whole vanguard, 50,000 frigates, 100,000 soldiers, was gone in the blink of an eye.
All the generals looked at the Supreme Commander, who stared at the monitor without any panicked expression on his face.
Seeing that the Supreme Commander was so calm, the mood of the officers and men on the flagship eased a lot. In the face of a strong enemy, it is useless to be anxious, and it is necessary to keep a cool head to deal with it.
"Order the missile fleet to block both sides of the swarm with firepower, and the main guns of the main battleship are charged and wait for my order!" said the Supreme Commander.
"Yes!"
The communications officer immediately issued the order, and then saw the missile fleet split into two waves, one left and one right, approaching the swarm.
As soon as the swarm entered the firing range, the missile unit launched five million missiles in one fell swoop within three seconds.
The missile swarm flew towards the swarm from both sides, and the swarm immediately moved closer to the center in order to avoid the blockade of the missiles.
And at this moment, the Supreme Commander shouted: "Main fleet, fire!" ”
Rumble...
Hundreds of thousands of thick beams of energy rushed straight towards the swarm. The swarm also scanned for danger and began to spread around.
But the swarm was too numerous to disperse. And there is a missile blockade on the perimeter, and the swarm simply cannot hide from the fate of being attacked.
The beam of light rushed into the swarm in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of robot insects were evaporated by the high temperature.
From a distance, there were several holes punched in the middle of the swarm. Seeing this scene, all the officers and soldiers of the empire howled excitedly.
"Well done!"
"Good kill!"
A small tactic by the Supreme Commander caused the enemy to suffer a big loss. A salvo from the main fleet inflicted a heavy blow on the enemy, which also greatly increased the vitality of the warriors.
However, the Supreme Commander was not happy about this, he knew that the battle had just begun, and this group of enemies was not so easy to deal with.
The fact is that the enemy does not care at all about the lost machines, as the commander expected. In just two minutes, millions more bugs joined the fray.
Seeing that the enemy had sent a large number of robot bugs, everyone in the flagship immediately closed their mouths, and all of them were staring at the battle situation ahead.
"He, who the hell are they!" A general asked.
"They don't seem to be the middle civilization of the Dapeng River system, I have never seen such a fighter!" Another general said.
"Extra-river civilization, why are they attacking us!"
"No matter who they are, if they dare to invade our empire, they will pay a heavy price!"
While several generals were talking, the enemy swarm launched a second wave of attacks. This time, the swarm divided into four directions and attacked the Imperial fleet from different directions.
The robot bugs are highly mobile, and with the fact that they are dispersing this time, the tactics just now don't work against them.
The Supreme Commander had a premonition that something bad was going to happen, and immediately ordered the fleet to retreat, while also having the warships drop a large number of space bombs.
The space bomb formed a huge net that blocked the encirclement of the fleet by the swarm. As dazzling clusters of light erupted in space, hundreds of thousands of bugs were blown into powder.
However, the number of swarms is so large that the loss is almost negligible. The swarm rushed towards the fleet at full speed as if it had gone mad.
The Imperial fleet fires all its weapons and fires fiercely at the swarm. One by one, the bugs were shot down under the intense attack, but the enemy didn't seem to care about such losses.
The swarm flew fast under artillery fire, and soon a part of it rushed into the fleet. Seeing this, all the officers and soldiers of the empire had a chill down their spines, and it was dangerous to be close to the main battleship by the drone.
All the ships immediately held up their shields to block the frenzied attack of the swarms. Millions of bugs swarmed around the Imperial fleet, and they rushed to the ships like delicious prey to sight.
The Predator used its sharp tentacles to bombard the ship's shields. Under the frantic attack of countless bugs, the battleship's shield began to flicker violently.
Under such a dense attack, the shield of the battleship lasted only a few tens of seconds, and disappeared after a few violent flashes.
Without the protection of shields, these ships are like papier-mâché. The robot bugs flicked their sharp tails and slashed at the ship's armor.
Rumble...
The armor of the battleship was broken in an instant, and the debris and soldiers inside the battleship spurted outward with the strong air current.
Thousands of bugs flocked to the broken gap, and then slaughtered wildly inside the battleship. In the face of the attacks of these robot bugs, those human soldiers were simply unable to resist.
In space, one battleship after another exploded. The battleship was full of flames, and the screams were endless. Seeing the soldiers of the empire being killed one after another, the Supreme Commander's face turned pale.
The other officials couldn't bear to look at it, and when they saw that the commander didn't speak, they couldn't say anything.
After a long while, the commander suddenly asked, "How's the transfer going?" ”
"Report to the commander, the important personnel have been transferred, and now the strategic materials are being transferred, and those who are too late to transfer are let them enter the underground base!" The Signal Soldier replied.
"How long will it take to transfer strategic supplies?" The commander asked again.
"It will take about ten hours!" The Signal Soldier replied.
"Ten hours is too late, send a message to the Empire, give them an hour, and in an hour the fleet will be evacuated!" The commander said.
"Yes!"
The Signal Corps immediately issued the order, and the Imperial Command received the order to speed up the transfer.
On the orders of the commander, all fleets regrouped and retreated to the second line of defense.
The second line of defense had space-based batteries, which, in conjunction with the fleet group, could barely delay the enemy for an hour.
However, the enemy seemed to have guessed the commander's thoughts, and they sent another swarm to bypass the second line of defense and rush directly to the capital star.
Fortunately, this swarm was scanned by the flagship, otherwise the people on the capital star who have not yet been transferred would have suffered.
The Supreme Commander ordered a fleet to be immediately dispatched to stop the swarm. Soon the two sides met in space, and a bitter confrontation began.
