Chapter 212: I'm on the Fifth Floor (2-in-1)
"Boom!"
The biggest role of the ghost fleet is to raid the enemy's hinterland for targeted bombing, and with the defense of the imperial capital, it is obviously impossible to break through the defense as quickly as possible.
So it's not just the ghost fleet that's coming at this moment.
The Ghost Fleet is responsible for breaking into the core of the system's defensive circle, and the fleets that arrive after it will outflank the outer layer of the system.
If the starship wants to defend itself against attacking the Ghost Fleet, then it will inevitably suffer a blow from the outer fleet.
Hyperspace jumps are faster than warp speeds.
Its disadvantage is that it is a straight line between points, and it has higher requirements for the exact coordinates of the star map and the destination.
As long as you know the enemy's destination, you can carry out an ambush in advance, or even use some kind of technology to intercept the designated hyperspace lane.
Fenrir's transition technique is very similar to that of hyperspace, and the reason why he made several jumps when he first traveled from the border of Singapore and Pakistan to the Duchy of Helios was because almost everyone knew that he was going back to Helios, so he would definitely squat at several jump nodes.
Therefore, Xia Lian must also use this to disrupt the enemy's military deployment.
But if you don't know the destination, once you enter this kind of leap across space, it is more difficult to intercept than warp speed, even if there is an interrupted interception technology, but the success rate is actually not high, and even because it is not in the same dimension, the probability of discovery is not high.
Only the spatial fluctuations at the time of the jump will be detected.
And at this moment, because the imperial capital jumped randomly, even their own people didn't know the location of the imperial capital, and they didn't know how to squat on the fixed route.
And at this moment, the coordinates of the imperial capital are also known to the people of the new federation, and at this distance, hyperspace can ignore all the imperial fleets on the way and directly reach the destination.
So at this moment, the entire imperial capital was surrounded by an extremely large number of fleets, and in order to prevent the enemy from returning to help, Thangka even sent an interception team to block the returning fleet.
Of course, the premise is that the information here can be conveyed, and Zas can intercept the signal with a starship used for electronic warfare, and they can naturally do it too.
At this moment, the entire galaxy has become an island.
Of course, there is also a certain risk, if they can't capture the imperial capital, the imperial side can also keep these starships.
It's a big gamble that you can't know for the time being.
Xia Lian also officially saw the appearance of the ghost fleet of the new federation at this moment.
The special paint of pitch black is hidden in the dark universe, and even if you don't deliberately turn on optical stealth, it may be difficult to see with the naked eye.
It is shaped like a half-moon with a slightly larger arc, or like a boomerang.
As an assault ship, its firepower was unquestionable, and the powerful artillery fire was pouring down, and the entire imperial capital was trembling slightly.
The people on the imperial capital fled in panic, however, under the powerful weapons of interstellar warfare, no matter where they fled, it was actually useless.
Xia Lian, the emperor and the empress were still sitting in the courtyard drinking tea, and the chairs of the three of them were facing the table, like an ordinary night, and a few friends were sitting together enjoying a quiet time.
The black tea placed on the table was slightly rippling because of the war above. ….
The queen silently picked up the black tea and took a sip and said, "It's really barbaric, my flowers are going to be destroyed."
"After all, you have to break through the defenses in the shortest possible time." Xia Lian said.
The queen looked at Xia Lian and smiled, "Do you think they can get in? Duke Helios."
Xia Lian looked at the Emperor, "It depends on what the Emperor thinks."
The emperor also took the black tea in front of him very decently and took a sip lightly.
"It's getting harder and harder for me to understand you."
"Just as I think of you." Xia Liandao.
There was an imperceptible smile on the emperor's face, and he slowly raised his head and looked at the starship above, the Helios field outside the imperial capital was already full of cracks.
A field that covers the entire imperial capital
It requires a huge amount of energy to sustain itself, and the attacks of starships are generally aimed at one point with concentrated fire.
One is scattered, one is concentrated, and under the advantages of one another, some cracks soon appeared in the Helios field on the periphery of the imperial capital, and then, the cracks became bigger and bigger, and finally....
"Boom!"
A huge hole appeared in the sky above the imperial capital, but the enemy did not bomb the imperial capital in a covering way, and Xia Lian saw many things that seemed to transform people fly into the gap.
"These new Federalists are not as ruthless as the Empire." Xia Lian complained on the side, "After the barrier of the imperial capital is shattered, the Great Purge can be directly released.
Without the support of the position generator within the imperial capital, it is only a matter of time before the imperial palace is destroyed, and such a stupid thing has to be done."
"They want to capture me alive." The Emperor said calmly.
To end this war, it is not enough to simply kill the Emperor.
They killed the Emperor, the Empire and the rest of the Grand Dukes, and they would take revenge on the New Federation with the wildest of the wildest.
Their real purpose was to capture the Emperor alive and take him to sign a surrender agreement, only in this way could the war be completely ended.
Xia Lian obviously understood this, and he quipped, "If they knew that all the Grand Dukes of the Empire were also in the Imperial Capital, then they would not hesitate to release the Great Purge.
Even if there are so many civilians in the imperial capital."
"But it looks like you didn't tell them." The Great Emperor said, "Otherwise, they wouldn't have used this method."
At this time, outside the garden, a group of reformers came over with serious faces and saluted the emperor and the queen.
"Emperor, the enemy has landed, and we must evacuate."
"I see." The Emperor raised his hand and motioned for them to stand down.
"The Emperor!" Once again, the reformer reminded, "Your safety is the safety of the Empire."
"I don't need you to dictate yet."
The Emperor's words were still steady, not impatient, he raised his eyes to look at the transformed person, his eyes were indifferent and terrifying.
The transformer hurriedly lowered his head, "Yes."
With that, he retreated from here and began to strengthen the guards of the palace.
"I think there's some truth to what he's saying." Xia Lian said.
"This is my imperial capital, and my soldiers are fighting for me.
If I run away, who are they going to fight for?" ….
The Great Emperor looked at Xia Lian, as if waiting for his answer.
Xia Lian didn't say anything, because at this moment the Duke of Panakya and the rest of the Grand Dukes ran over from not far away.
He seemed to want to say something after seeing Xia Lian, but stopped when he came to his lips after seeing the Great Emperor.
After a pause, they saluted the Emperor.
"The Emperor."
Although they are very unhappy with the emperor now, they still have to maintain a certain amount of respect when they see people under the eaves.
The Emperor smiled and nodded at them.
"Are you here for Duke Helios?"
"Emperor, what's going on outside?" Panachea asked.
"The ghost fleet of the New Federation has raided the Imperial Capital." Xia Lian explained, "There are already some reformers entering the Imperial Capital."
"What?" Duke's face changed, "How did they know the location of the Imperial Capital?"
"Because, I leaked it to them." Xia Lian spoke, and his words were amazing.
At that moment, the Grand Dukes were stunned, and for a moment they thought they had heard it wrong.
After they reacted, they looked at Xia Lian, and then he looked at the emperor and the empress.
Seeing the three of them enjoying black tea and snacks here calmly and harmoniously, the confusion and confusion on their faces became even stronger.
With the capacity of their brains, they can't explain the scene in front of them.
Xia Lian leaked the location of the imperial capital
To the new federation, isn't that a proper act of treason that tears the face?
According to common sense, now Xia Lian is either directly executed, or directly arrested and locked up, instead of drinking tea from the palace here and talking and laughing with the emperor here.
No...... Now this situation doesn't look like you can talk and laugh!
The enemy is in, hey!
Panakya's heart was roaring wildly, but obviously, he wouldn't say it.
"Boom!"
A loud sound roared in the sky, everyone raised their heads one after another, and a ghost ship was hit, as if it had hit an important engine system, and began to slowly fall towards the imperial capital.
The friction between the huge hull and the atmosphere of the imperial capital surrounded its front with a layer of red gas.
The starship grew bigger and bigger in their eyes, and then ....
"Winter!"
The entire imperial capital trembled at this moment, and several grand dukes fell directly to the ground without standing firmly, and some of the flower pots that were not very stable around them fell directly to the ground because of this vibration, and they were shattered.
The huge amount of smoke and dust kicked up by the impact could be seen even in the garden across the building, and the huge smoke and dust obscured the sky and closed the day.
Countless starships were pressed in black, and light cannons were flying sideways around, a scene of apocalypse.
"It's a one-of-a-kind product from Dara." The queen looked at the flower pot with some distress.
"Isn't it special?" Xia Lian asked curiously.
"When the Dami carved flower is in full bloom, it releases music." The queen said.
"Can you unleash music?" Xia Lian's eyes widened slightly, "Natural?"
"I'm not interested in raising some acquired genetic plants." Queen's Road.
She looked wistfully at the flower that fell to the ground, "This is just one." ….
"It's a pity, indeed." Xia Lian also looked at the flower with some distress.
A starship has fallen! There's a starship that has fallen, and hey!
You are like no one else in such a big scene, you care about a pot of flowers!
Panakyagong's heart was still roaring, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, he believed that several friends next to him were also in this mood at the moment.
He felt like he was in the same place with these people now, but it was as if he was in another dimension entirely.
However, Xia Lian finally raised his head slowly at this moment, stared at the sky, and whispered softly.
"What was it that just shot down that ghost ship?"
"Zeus." The Great Emperor Road.
"Zeus?" Xia Lian frowned.
But soon, Xia Lian saw the "Zeus" in the mouth of the emperor.
Huge shadows gradually covered the garden, obscuring all the light from the outside world.
The Duke of Panakia, the Duke of Thor, and the Duke of Hestia all slowly raised their heads and looked at everything in front of them with a slight distraction.
It was an unimaginable giant, their naked eye could only see the metal that covered the entire sky, it was smooth, similar to Fenrir's shell, and if they could see it in the universe, maybe the perspective would be a little more similar.
"It's the pinnacle of technology in the age of smart machines." The Great Emperor said, "Sixty-two kilometers in length, all the basic power armor, the armor itself is a weapon, of course, the most commendable thing is its basic power weapon.
With the exception of dark matter, the vast majority of matter in this universe has fundamental forces, and this weapon can control fundamental forces to change the properties of matter.....
It has been floating around the astrolabe, keeping it invisible, and under normal circumstances, people would not be able to detect it, even the transformers inside the palace would not know about its existence."
The Emperor raised his head and looked at the thing and sighed.
"I haven't seen it in a long time, and sometimes, I almost forget it exists..."
"You really have something good to hide...." Xia Lian raised his head, looked at the starship, and whispered enviously.
This thing is obviously not as big as the Ark, but the main function of the Ark is actually immigration, so it looks bloated, and this one looks like a complete battleship.
The Duchy of Helios is not a single one.
"In that case, it seems that the defeat of the new Federation is a foregone conclusion." Xia Lian muttered in a low voice, "I really can't pin my hope on them..."
"Looks like their plan has failed."
As he spoke, he looked at Xia Lian.
"So, what's your plan?"
"What do you think my plan is?" Xia Lian smiled, "Let the people of the New Federation capture the imperial capital? Still is..... Lure the New Federation's ghost fleet and some of its main fleet here to catch them all?"
"What do you think?" The Emperor asked patiently.
Xia Lian smiled, without words.
"Boom!"
At this moment, the light shot from nowhere hit the palace barrier, which was already on the verge of collapse, and the barrier was quickly covered with cracks, and even an imperceptible gap appeared.
However, this is just one gap, in fact, it is enough.
Panakia seemed to be about to say something, but was horrified to find that their bodies were actually decomposing into golden points of light at a speed visible to the naked eye. ….
Not only him, but also the rest of the Grand Dukes in his status.
He looked at Xia Lian, as if he wanted to say something, but before he could finish speaking, they disappeared in place.
The Emperor frowned slightly.
A few minutes later, a transformer ran over from the side, his face clearly not as calm as before.
"The Great Emperor, the Grand Dukes are gone."
The Great Emperor was silent, but he didn't look angry, he looked at Xia Lian, who was still here, and whispered softly.
"Is this your plan..."
There seemed to be appreciation in his tone, and it seemed to sigh.
Xia Lian knew his true purpose from beginning to end, which was to rescue all the Grand Dukes.
The plan was simple, that is, to break through the defenses of the imperial capital, and then take all the Grand Dukes with Fenrir through quantum transmission technology, and then use Fenrir's mobility to quickly leave.
The biggest difficulty here is how to break down the barrier, and it is impractical to rely on Fenrir's firepower or destroy it internally.
When the Empress informed Xia Lian of the method of locking the palace, he also thought of a plan to borrow the fleet of the New Federation to destroy the barrier.
After Shantong was arrested, Xia Lian had a premonition that the fact that he could freely enter and leave the palace may have been known to the emperor, maybe earlier.
And Xia Lian also had a certain guess about why the emperor acquiesced to his free access to the palace.
Although Xia Lian has always regarded the Great Emperor as an imaginary enemy, he has never had a direct contradiction with the Great Emperor on the surface.
The emperor is very powerful, when Xia Lian's father's death was borne, it can be said that it has something to do with him, or it can be said that it has nothing to do with it, he just gave Helios an important resource planet, in a sense, this is even a "reward".
And this reward became the last fire that ignited the contradiction between the Duchy of Bahram and the Duchy of Helios.
Moreover, at the banquet, Charlian never opposed the Emperor's plan, and in his conflict with the Duchy of Bahram, the Emperor chose to side with him.
Not only does he have the means, but his tools are also worthy of the position he is in.
He wanted Xia Lian to fight for him, even allowing him to have his own secrets, and allowing him to plot something with those Grand Dukes.
At the Mid-Autumn Festival, he invited Xia Lian to become the commander of the NWBA front, which was a gesture of goodwill.
He believed that even if Charian had many secrets, it would be at least for the Duchy of Helios, and for the sake of Helios, that is, for the Empire.
[I have known an old book friend for ten years to recommend to me to chase books, @
Behind this is his absolute confidence in the power he has, and the absolute confidence that he can control everything.
The reason why Xia Lian came to the rescue of Zas was not only to save Helios's fleet, but to test the attitude of the Emperor and whether he already knew that he could enter and leave the palace freely.
The fact that after Zas fled back, his bedroom was unharmed, as evidenced by this.
At the same time, Charlen's help to Zas was also a gesture of goodwill for him, and he expressed to the Emperor that he was on the side of the empire in the disputes between countries. ….
And as Xia Lian said, exposing the location of the imperial capital this time can be explained in two ways.
That is, he knew the power of the Imperial Capital Fleet, and deliberately attracted the Ghost Fleet and the main fleet of the New Federation to come, and they were all in one go, accelerating the speed.
It can also be interpreted as his desire to destroy the imperial capital.
Of course, the emperor knew that Xia Lian's purpose was not pure, for him, this was an unspeakable tacit understanding and gambling agreement between him and Xia Lian.
If the new federation conquers the imperial capital, it will be a victory for Xia Lian.
And if the new federation does not conquer the imperial capital, it will be his victory.
He can use the former as a matter of course.
Xia Lian will be the biggest hero in this war with the New Federation, and at the same time, he will also become his most important right-hand man.
But that wasn't the purpose of Xia Lian.
Whether the new federation is victorious or defeated, it actually has little to do with him now.
The real purpose of his coming to this era is to perpetuate mankind, and in order to perpetuate mankind, it is necessary to first unify mankind and unite the power of mankind into one.
In order to unify mankind, there are many difficulties to pay in this era, and the hatred in it cannot be easily erased.
For him, if the new federation loses and the empire annexes the new federation, then Xia Lian will have a lot less work to do in the future.
And if the new federation succeeds and conquers the imperial capital, then he has created a good friendship with the new federation, and when the final moment comes, they may be able to try to form an alliance.
So in fact, it wasn't that he deliberately cheated the thangka, it was that they themselves were not angry.
Either way, it's not bad for him, it's a win-win, he wins twice.
And all this will eventually confuse the Great Emperor and make him unaware of Xia Lian's ultimate purpose.
That is.... Rescue these Grand Dukes.....
These.... The most important chess piece he needs....
