Chapter 629: Rescue Mission
"Not really." Xia Huangquan said: "Although the news of the peace talks has just been released, the two sides have been ceasefire for two or three days, so there are no wounded for the time being. β
"Now that I know you're the one I'm going to piggyback on, how can I ignore itβI have to catch up with my old friends, right?"
"I see." Tao Le put his mind at ease and asked about the achievements of Xia Huangquan during this time.
"Actually, there is nothing. It's just to keep training, run in with my comrades, and then fight all the way to this day. β
"Thankfully, all the efforts were in vain. Now, we have finally waited for the other party's sum. β
Xia Huangquan's words are very concise. Tao Le could hear that he really didn't think how difficult the battle was along the way.
"So, I just joined the army, and this war is coming to an end?" Tao Le joked.
"Not necessarily." Xia Huangquan stood up with a mysterious smile on his face: "You should have seen that the planet Dodd is very depressed now, and all the people who can walk are gone." β
Tao Le nodded: "Indeed, it's because of this war, right?" β
"Yes and not quite." Xia Huangquan said: "The main reason is that outside the defense line of the seventh war zone where the planet Dodd is located, the fleet of the Aowei Empire has appeared. β
"Here, it's already the front line."
Tao Le was shocked by his deep voice, and his eyes immediately cast his eyes towards the front of the bridge, but he did not find any danger.
She thought for a moment and asked, "I heard just now that you are here on a mission. Is the mission now complete? β
"It's us." Xia Huangquan corrected her meaningfully: "As for the task, it has just begun. β
"Captain." An officer stood up: "The traces of the enemy ship group have been detected, and it is hidden in the asteroid belt ahead." β
"Keep the illusion of passing by, keep approaching - the whole ship is on alert, get ready for battle!"
As soon as this order was given, the battle alarm sounded immediately in the ship.
The sound of footsteps sounded repeatedly outside the bridge, and the sound of the report being ready kept coming from the ship's communicator, and it was reported to the Lower Yellow Springs by officers of different positions.
It's clearly not a good time to catch up. Tao Le quietly stepped aside and watched with interest Xia Huangquan's response.
The hustle and bustle in front of him seemed to be nothing in his eyes. He had a calm voice and command, and in a moment he put things in order.
"Starfire, there might be a fight in a moment." Xia Huangquan turned his head to look at Tao Le, with a gentle smile on his face: "You are participating in the war for the first time, are you afraid?" β
Although the scene in front of him is real, Tao Le knows that this is also a game.
She laughed, "I'm looking forward to it." β
The ship enters the asteroid belt and opens the blue shield.
Countless fragments of meteorites, large and small, kept knocking out of the shield, and the hull of the ship shook violently as a result.
Although Tao Le had a strong sense of balance, he was not specially trained in the end, and soon became unsteady on his feet, and crashed into the wide transparent porthole at the bow of the ship.
Xia Huangquan's eyes were fast, and he stopped in front of her with an arrow step and took her directly into his arms.
This embrace was still as inexplicably familiar as before, and it was full of masculine flavor, so that she could not resist the slightest thought.
The hull of the ship gradually became stable, but Xia Huangquan did not let go of his hand.
Tao Le struggled slightly, but did not break away.
"Yellow Springs." She looked into his eyes, and then looked around at a few players who seemed to be working seriously, but were actually peeking and snickering, and said helplessly.
The next moment, she was pressed into a seat. Xia Huangquan crouched down and fastened her seat belt.
"You sit here well, and there will be no surprises." He whispered.
"Okay." Tao Le immediately nodded in response.
At that moment, her gaze swept over the large transparent window in front of her, startled by the sight there.
An irregular fragment of meteorite, with a diameter of more than ten kilometers, appeared directly in front of the Sky.
It takes a lot of courage to look directly at such a behemoth and crash into it at great speed.
Tao Le's heart rose to his throat, and he wanted to open his mouth to warn, but he couldn't make any sound.
Between the lightning flints, the ship swerved to the upper left in an agile manner, just avoiding the huge meteorite.
Tao Le's heart relaxed, and only then did he realize that Xia Huangquan was looking at him seriously.
"Don't worry, when you enter the asteroid belt, you have already switched to autopilot mode."
"I see." Tao Le understood. In other words, in such a dense asteroid belt, it is difficult to accurately avoid every large piece of debris by manpower.
The design of the automatic driving plus the blue light shield is really intimate.
"The enemy fleet has discovered us! They were cautious and only sent an M-class reconnaissance ship to approach us! The observer reported loudly.
"Pretend you didn't see it and keep going!" Xia Huangquan said.
"Fifteen thousand kilometers from the enemy ship group."
"It's 10,000 kilometers away."
"Seven thousand kilometers away. The enemy fleet of ships came out en bloc and headed towards us at full speed from its hiding place, and the expected time of the encounter was a minute!"
"Good." The expression on Xia Huangquan's face was extremely flat, as if everything was under his control: "Seeing that we were single, they were still greedy." β
"Turn, fly out of the asteroid field!" He said aloud: "Send a signal, close the circle!" β
"Yes!"
In the next battle, Tao Le watched it blindly.
The five warships hidden deep in the asteroid belt, ranging in size from K to M, all saw the Changfeng as meat on the chopping board, and chased after it, unknowingly leaving the asteroid belt.
They surrounded the Changfeng in the middle, connected to the communication video, and demanded the unconditional surrender of Xia Huangquan - only to find that it was nothing more than a carefully thrown bait.
Twenty K-class ships, plus two J-class ships, surrounded them.
The difference in strength was obviously too great, but the other party refused to surrender and broke out with a strong fighting spirit.
After an extremely fierce battle, the opponent was left with only the last M-class starship.
Tao Le thought that Xia Huangquan and the others would be wiped out, but in fact they didn't.
A J-class ship sent out a fishing net and dragged the enemy ship, which had lost all of its energy, into the hull.
Soon, a holographic image appeared on the bridge of the Changfeng, and Admiral Luo Lin's figure was among them.
"The rescue plan was a success." A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth: "Boys, you're doing a great job. β
He pointed to the man lying at his feet: "This one is the object of your rescue." β
