Chapter 283: Secret
On the other hand, under the great war, the Betales Federation not only suffered serious losses in the fleet, the fleet was incomplete, and most importantly, the military fortress was seriously damaged.
Xuanmu Fortress is okay, because the righteous order did not send a flagship this time, but only sent more than a dozen fleets to carry it out.
Although the defending fleet suffered heavy losses under the disadvantage of fighting more with less, the 3rd Mixed Fleet was completely wiped out, and even the 5th and 6th Mixed Fleets, which were reserves, lost more than half, but it was too good to allow the enemy to attack the fortress for long.
Therefore, Xuanmu Fortress only consumed more energy shields, and did not suffer any damage itself.
But the Glare Fortress, which has been thrown into a large number of regular and dreadnought fleets by the Free faction, is much more miserable.
The losses of the 4th mixed fleet were more than two-thirds, of which half were dreadnoughts, and the establishment could be canceled.
The fortress was even more badly damaged.
The energy shield was shattered, more than three-fifths of the external armor was lost, the fortress itself was heavily damaged, the waterway collapsed and blocked, the Iron Rider's external compartment was more than half damaged, and even the most important energy reactor was almost hit by more than a dozen doomsday weapons of the dreadnought.
Emergency repairs are still underway.
A few hours later, when the channel was cleared, Maud entered the military fortress at the invitation of Old Money.
Looking at the gray-haired old man in front of him, his eyes were full of exhaustion, but he was still in good spirits, Maude couldn't help but stand on his feet and salute with his right hand to his chest.
"The commander of the New Eden Maud Regiment, Muria Maud, has been ordered to come to the rescue!"
Looking at Maude with a solemn face, Lao Qian showed an excited smile on his face, and stretched out his hands to hold Maude's hand tightly.
"If you hadn't come in time this time, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
Now Lao Qian is still a little afraid in his heart.
It's not because of his death, but if he and the others don't hold this fortress, and let the fleet of the free camp enter and drive straight in, then even if he dies, he won't be at peace!
It was a matter of life and death for a civilized race, and he had no choice but to be afraid.
In this regard, Maude also showed a bright smile.
"Your Excellency, New Eden and the Betales Federation have reached a strategic agreement, and if it weren't for the righteous order sending people to the Alpha Star Domain border to supervise this time, otherwise there would not be only such a small fleet."
As he spoke, Maude said with a very serious face: "Your Excellency, please entrust us with the most dangerous, arduous and important combat mission, and we will definitely live up to our expectations!" ”
Looking at Maude's resolute face, Lao Qian, a veteran who has fought for many years and is accustomed to seeing life and death, couldn't help but be touched in his heart and couldn't help sighing.
"No wonder New Eden is rising so fast, with you warriors who are not afraid of life and death, it is difficult to rise or not!"
There is one thing to say.
When he first came into contact with New Eden, New Eden gave a lot of help to the Federation of Betales, and his impression of New Eden at that time was actually not very good.
At the beginning, New Eden sent technology in exchange for their resources to help the Bertales Federation become stronger, just to let them hold this Bertales star field and become the first line of defense in the west of New Eden.
This is a clear condition, New Eden needs an ally, and they need to become stronger, everyone takes what they need.
But in this Bertales Federation facing the siege of two camps and facing the difficult moment of life and death, New Eden was able to send two dreadnought fleets and a lot of military supplies to come, which made Lao Qian very moved.
You must know that in this chaotic southern star field, these two dreadnought fleets can be regarded as the foundation of a second-rate top civilization.
You know, when Maude led these two dreadnought fleets into the Bertales Federation, it meant that they couldn't go back.
Even this news can't be known to the outside world, otherwise New Eden will face their current predicament and be liquidated by the two camps!
Two dreadnought fleets!
This time, the Freedom faction dispatched a total of six dreadnought fleets, but this was the only number that Frederick McGee had integrated with the dreadnought fleets of three first-class civilizations.
This failure, especially with such heavy casualties in the fleet, can be said to be a great loss of vitality of these civilizations, and they will not be able to recover in a few years.
This shows how precious this dreadnought fleet is in this southern star field!
For the praise of old money, Maude's face remained unchanged, and the praise of outsiders could not make a little wave in his heart, and the glory of New Eden should not be boasted, but should be fought on the battlefield!
"Your Excellency has an overreputation, you should give us a combat mission!"
"Don't worry, now that the big war has just passed, not only are we uncomfortable, but the enemy is also having a hard time, so there is no combat mission during this time.
Moreover, you will not be required for this ordinary reconnaissance mission.
Let's take a break! ”
Old Qian continued to pat Maude's shoulder and said.
But Maud refused without hesitation.
"Your Excellency, in that case, then I should lead the fleet to lurk in deep space.
lest the enemy come and raid, and then the fleet will be in trouble if it is trapped in a military fortress like just now! ”
It's not that Maud doesn't want to go into the space station to rest, it's that she can't!
The pilots of both dreadnoughts were cyborg clones, both unconscious, and acting on his commands.
If they all enter the military fortress, they will not be exposed.
This is one of the secrets of the New Eden, and if it were exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable.
So Maud would rather stay in the subspace of deep space and engage in boring lurking than risk exposure to enter a military fortress to recuperate.
"Then I'm going to work hard for you."
Seeing Maude's resolute attitude, Lao Qian no longer dissuaded, after all, the military fortress has not yet been repaired, and if the enemy really kills a horse pistol, it will not be good.
Moreover, now the fleet of the Betales Federation has suffered serious losses and needs to be reorganized to organize its combat effectiveness, and only Maud and them can defend it at present.
"It's all about victory!"
Maude gave Lao Qian a military salute as he spoke.
Then, Lao Qian turned around and went back to organize other affairs, and now the burden of the entire front line was on him, and all kinds of problems were still waiting for him to deal with, and there was no room for delay.
After Lao Qian left, Maud also turned around and drove the shuttle away from the military fortress, and then boarded his dreadnought and jumped into deep space with the fleet, and then the dreadnought approached directly in pairs and reloaded through their respective ship maintenance cabins.
Compared to the refitting in the space station, the efficiency of this refitting in space is very impressive, and it took more than half an hour to simply replace the flagship-level energy neutralizer with a stealth mobile device.
When all the dreadnoughts have been reequipped, they distance themselves from each other again, and finally activate the stealth action device to enter the subspace to lurk.
