Chapter Thirty-Eight: The First Battle of the Terminator of the Iron Float (Part I)
Three hours ago.
Planet Kernak III, orbit in space.
The spears of light are staggered, and the cannons are flying together.
"So, the Kluts have already chosen a side?"
Eugene Eleanor spread his legs apart to resist the sudden tilt of the bridge, and the Suzheng's gravity-simulated device coped well with the sudden changes, but the device was not perfect.
No one answered his question.
The Iron Float Terminator, which stood like an iron tower around the bridge, remained silent, clenching his weapon and adjusting his posture as he turned his head to stare at the tactical readout on the screen.
The orc fleet and the Chaos warships were moving closer to the formation of the Suzheng and Warhorse, and their intentions were very obvious - they intended to cross the wide and ice rings and the surrounding asteroid belt.
Bird's detection showed that even the Krut war ball ship was slowly approaching this side, but it was moving too slowly to worry about it for a short time.
Several fleets that originally occupied a region and maintained a confrontation with each other suddenly broke the balance and moved towards the fleet of the Iron Floating Slaughter Battle Group at the same time, why?
"I think there must be a victory or defeat on the ground, or some kind of major turning point, sir."
A mortal staff officer said.
Eugene nodded, agreeing.
"Sir, what are we going to do, get out of orbit?"
Another staff officer asked.
"Impossible!"
Eugene immediately rejected the proposal:
"If we give up the low-earth orbit position, the nest city and the ground forces will be bombarded by orbit from space, I don't know if the orcs have orbital bombardment capabilities, but the underworld-class heavy cruisers definitely do, even if the nest has a void shield, I will never allow this to happen!"
Eugene knows his boss, and if he is subjected to orbital bombing, he will definitely tear himself apart.
"Order, sir!"
The staff officer asked Eugene for specific orders.
Eugene looked around the bridge and said:
"They're already in the range of the spears and they're still closing in on us...... Pretty obvious, isn't it? Since they want to fight the Jump Gang, let them do it! ”
Sure enough, Eugene's voice just fell.
"Torpedo Attack !!"
A mortal officer yelled heartbreakingly.
"Turn, the star is about five o'clock."
Eugene Elinor ordered:
"Prepare for battle."
"Boom-"
Violent tremors came down the walls of the battleship, hitting the bridge like waves, the blister-like protruding armor glass began to crack, and the two manned workstations lost their signal due to the rupture below, and the damage management troops were quickly dispatched.
The Suzheng and the War Horse faced double attacks from the left and right at the same time, and did not fall into the disadvantage at all.
They were under heavy attack.
They fought back violently.
This is the Void War.
Each screen was filled with flashing signals, and with a series of silent explosions, three fleets stretched out in the void, leaving behind countless burning starship wreckage.
The two Basha-class light cruisers had been ignited by the artillery fire arrays of the battleship Suzheng and the cruiser Warhorse, and the exploding engines and hulls were like fireworks.
The Warhorse strike cruiser weaved through the wreckage, using the wreckage and ice rings to cover itself, its tail thrusters spewing flames and the side laser launchers flashing crimson.
And the real behemoth, the Underworld-class heavy cruiser, caused meteorite-sized ripples on the Void Shield of the Suzheng with a powerful attack, and the pure beam of light shot by the spear of light was full of deadly energy.
The light spears opened fire again, and the bridge and deck shook again. The forward scanner and energy detector failed for a fraction of a second in a white flame before quickly recovering.
"The port side Thunderhawk gunboat approached."
A machine servant said with a blank face.
"The port side of the Void Shield No. 7 is destroyed."
Another servant added.
"Ninety-one percent charged in the Light Spear Array."
"Transfer the power in the transfer deck cabin to the relay."
The sheer volume of tactical data overwhelmed the bridge and Eugene Elinor, and he felt the ship tremble like a beast beneath his feet, and the Suzheng was struggling to keep up with his orders. He was also struggling to support himself against another deflection of the bridge.
"Target Locked ......"
The gun commander on the artillery deck reported that his half-human, half-mechanical head was buried in a pile of image displays.
In front of them, the orc's Onslaught-class assault ship was maneuvering at full strength, but the Suzheng followed it closely, and after spinning through the ice ring and a pile of wreckage of battleships, the battleship finally gained a clean space to fire.
"Now, Commander."
Eugene commanded loudly:
"Don't miss the opportunity."
The Suzheng's bow spear fired, two rays of light piercing the enemy's fiery tail plasma stream.
"Good!"
Eugene roared, punching himself in the palm of his hand.
The target battleship was hit by two glowing spears in the tail, and the hull was shattered in a series of explosions, and its wreckage split into several pieces and flew out with a series of explosions.
"Roundabout!"
Eugene Elinor ordered.
"Immediately take a detour under the ice ring."
The Suzheng swooped downward, new enemies entering their field of vision, ice rings, planets, asteroids, and battleship wreckage hovering overhead the armored glass of the bridge, a constant disturbance of three-dimensional space surrounding them, locking and circling.
"Destroy enemy ships."
The gunner reported.
"Well done."
Eugene praised.
"The Thunderhawk gunboat continues to approach."
The slave worker in front of the sensors and sensors repeated it again, its voice faint, sounding like it was reporting a normal fuel leak in a redundant coil in the bilge.
"How many are there?"
"Ten crosses, densely formed, ready to fire at any time."
The Suzheng and War Horse have been gathering the orc fleet with thin skins, trying to eliminate these low-quality orc warships first, ignoring the Chaos Gang's underworld-class heavy cruiser, ignoring the attack of the heavy cruiser, which eventually led to the penetration of the seventh Void Shield.
And those ten Thunderhawk gunboats.
It's a straight line for this gap!
The close-in and rapid-fire guns on the side of the Suzheng opened fire, and the shells made a chain of fire in the darkness. One of the Thunderhawk gunboats was shot, two of them exploded and turned into a ball of fire, and the other one ignited a fire and lost power.
"Fire again."
A Thunderhawk gunboat blew to pieces during the attack, its wreckage tumbling in a tumbling arc. Two more gunboats hit the shell head-on and then fell sharply.
But four of them still reached the breach, and then, the group of Thunderhawk gunboats quickly changed course, suddenly accelerated forward, and rushed into the gap of the Void Shield of the Suzheng together.
"Open the hatch of Gnaku!"
Eugene gave an unexpected order.
After saying that, the acting captain looked at the Iron Float Terminator.
The other party nodded at him, the power of the horse in his hand slammed down, the armor sonorously and neatly strode to the boarding deck.
"Instead of guessing where they're going to land from, we should open up the hangar and make a room...... Attention, all personnel on the boarding deck are evacuated immediately, repeat, evacuate immediately! ”
Eugene leaned over the radio and shouted.

There are a lot of things today, and the other half has not been written yet, so I can only send half of it first
