The cooldown time of the battleship's main gun neutron light spear is 150 seconds, and the battleship at full speed exceeds 600,000 kilometers per hour, even if the speed is reduced to 250,000 kilometers per hour, it is just more than the maximum speed of 230,000 kilometers per hour of the battleship of the Shatamen.

The speed of 250,000 kilometers per hour was 69 kilometers per second, and 150 seconds was 10,350 kilometers per second, but in fact, the battleship group stopped at about 9,000 kilometers.

U-turn, and the main gun begins to charge.

Another earth-shattering wave of neutron light spears set fire, and another 30 Shata battleships were destroyed.

Speed and range suppression is so inexplicable, as long as you can't catch up and can't hit, you can only be beaten passively, unless you get on the doomsday main gun, or rely on the ultra-high speed of the space fleet to catch up.

But at this time, there are two doomsday main guns on the side of the Shata civilization and one doomsday arc in Star City, which is indeed unstoppable, but this thing only fires in half an hour, although Li Qing's battleships are not as good as the Shata people, but there are more than 800 ships, and they can still withstand these losses.

Needless to say, as for the aircraft fleet, at this time the five aircraft carriers had lost nearly one-third of their space fighters, totaling more than 1.8 million space fighters.

There are millions of space fighters on the Star City side, one Star City has a hangar capacity equivalent to four supercarriers, a supercarrier can accommodate 1.08 million space fighters, four space fighters with a total of 4.32 million, plus four Star Castles can make up millions, a total of five or six million.

But Star City is too far away from the battlefield to catch up for a while.

And it's useless to rush over, Li Qing still has a fleet of 700,000 planes on standby, as long as the fleet comes, it will immediately catch up.

Up to the end of Star City, the battleship group, the space aircraft group, the mixed formation of frigates, destroyers and cruisers, all four aspects were blocked head-on, and all of them fell into disadvantage, this change in the battle situation was something that Gu Shenzhou and others did not expect.

In his imagination, the Garan Legion may have the strength of a battle, but it is only the strength of a battle, and it will definitely be a crushing victory.

The result was completely unexpected, the Garan Legion, which had an absolute fleet disadvantage, actually suppressed the fleet of a division of the Shata tribe, which had an absolute superiority in ship capacity, in a frontal battle.

Of course, this was also unexpected by the Shata clan commander.

I thought that it would be enough to defeat the fleet in front of me with a force advantage of more than five times, and then talk about the conditions after showing my strength, but it turned out that it seemed that I couldn't beat it, which was embarrassing.

Embarrassment is not the most terrible, the most terrible thing is that if you lose, it means that you have no room to negotiate conditions.

"What should I do?"

The command room was terrifyingly quiet, all of them were intelligent creatures, and their reactions were no different from those of humans.

"Say, what's next?"

It wasn't until the commander asked for a second time that one of the staff officers spoke:

"We have two options, use the special line to contact the side of the Quelta Fortress, and let the other side transfer a brigade over, and it only takes a day to support it, but the Quelta Fortress needs to face a more powerful human fleet, and the pressure is greater than ours, and the other side may not be able to transfer the fleet over."

"Another option is to bow to the Empire, use a special line to contact the Locke Fortress side, it will only take two days at most for reinforcements to arrive, our tribe still has a lot of strength left, even if we bow to the Empire, we can still guarantee a certain seat, and a certain status, not like those tribes who have now fallen to the lower echelons of the Empire."

"Besides, it's only a moment to bow his head now, He will always grow old, and when he dies, we will still have a chance to rise."

The staff officer paused for a moment, then added:

"Of course, you can directly surrender to humanity and put forward conditions, attach yourself to humanity in a vassal way, and borrow human strength to fight against him."

The command room was quiet, and a few commanders muttered:

"You can't contact Quelta, the human expeditionary force is very strong, and he can't draw the fleet."

"But I don't want to be a vassal of an ugly human, my people can't accept it."

Silence returned to the command room.

"Boom!"

An arc of Titan lightning shoots into the sand tower

The group of battleships, the dazzling arc of lightning beat continuously, and the seven battleships turned into fireballs and were torn apart.

Li Qing found that without the damage of the Titan Light Spear, although the two divine lights could not completely destroy the flagship of Shata, it was enough to cripple the flagship of a Shata aircraft carrier and disintegrate its combat capability, which was a good thing.

In the first battle before, it was necessary to reduce the number of the opponent's flagships as much as possible to ensure superiority, but now the opponent's flagships have been sunk a total of six, especially the dreadnoughts have sunk four, and the advantage is gone, so there is no need to sink it at this time.

Scrapped, isn't it good to wait for the prisoners to come over and repair it again after the war?

Although the combat effectiveness of the flagship of the Shata civilization is not comparable to that of the human flagship, it is also a flagship, and the power of its main gun is there, with its own aura.

Even if you don't want to use it, you can reward it to three subordinates.

With the flagship in hand, the strength of the three of them will be greatly improved, and they can directly take charge of themselves.

In the future, no matter what they are asked to do, or go out on adventures on their own, the three of them have enough strength to stay at the headquarters and guard their homes.

As his mind moved, the door of the black hole opened, and the light of the Divine Judgment of Destruction once again pierced through the void, and after melting all the dozens of large and small battleships that were guarding the aircraft carrier in front of the aircraft carrier in one go, including seven battleships, the aftermath blasted a slowly gliding aircraft carrier back hundreds of meters.

Immediately after that, the second divine light burst out, and the thick armor on the surface of the huge body of the aircraft carrier melted away, and the thick hull melted to reveal the cabin, the same as the first aircraft carrier that Li Qing had destroyed, but the trauma was not so great.

Li Qing deliberately chose an aircraft carrier with a large number of escort warships in front, so that the dozens of large and small warships blocking the front blocked part of the power, otherwise the two divine lights would definitely be able to bombard an aircraft carrier of the Shata civilization in a real bombardment.

It is worth mentioning that the same flagship, because the aircraft carrier has to accommodate a large number of space fighters, its size is larger than that of the dreadnought, and its shield armor and hull are higher than that of the dreadnought, so it is naturally more bearable.

"Another city!"

Sure that the aircraft carrier would not blow itself up, Li Qing was in a good mood, if he won this battle, he wouldn't make too much money.

It takes an hour for the Light of Divine Judgment to be launched, but each launch can affect the battle situation, and the loss of an aircraft carrier will have a big impact on the Shata people.

Although there are still two aircraft carriers that can control these space fighters, the number of fighters is too large to exceed the command limit of its command system, which will inevitably affect the battle.

The situation that was not an opponent was weakened again, and the gap has become even wider.

However, although this wave of attacks did not directly destroy the aircraft carrier, the blow to the Shata command was even greater than the direct destruction, and the commander-in-chief, who was still hesitating, finally made up his mind and ordered in a deep voice:

"Use the special line to contact the Locke Fortress side and ask them to send troops to support."

As soon as the words fell, the black sea spider man in a gorgeous robe immediately stood up and objected loudly:

"We can't bow down to the Empire!"

The commander looked at him, and he continued to say loudly:

"We have broken with the empire for more than 20 years, resulting in the empire's empty consumption of I don't know how much manpower and material resources, and the current crisis of the empire is also caused by us, if we bow to the empire, do you know what will happen?"

The Shata were silent, and only the commander-in-chief said:

"But if you don't bow down to the Empire, the alliance with humans won't end well."

"But on the one hand, it will inevitably not end well, and on the other hand, there are still some opportunities, what will you choose?"

"Fornication with a foreign race will never end well, the worst outcome may be extinction, we are a member of the empire, from the same home planet, the worst outcome is to sink like those tribes, but at least the tribe can still exist, and there will be a chance to rise in the future."

"He is a super psyker, he can live for tens of thousands of years, and he will be stronger in the future, and after tens of thousands of years, our descendants will long forget about revenge."

"When Your Majesty sent an envoy before, he promised to guarantee the existence of our tribe."

"He also made a promise to the Earfins, and then look at what happens to the Earfins."

.

......

.......

Both sides were silent.

After a long while, a third person spoke:

"If you can't convince anyone, then vote!"

All eyes were on him, and a little commander-in-chief spoke:

"Then vote, the 37 people present will raise their hands in agreement to ask for support from the Empire!"

One by one, the sea spiders raised a spider arm.

"Twenty-one votes!"

The commander-in-chief said with some surprise:

"It's already more than half, and there is no need to vote again, and now I have decided to contact Locke Fortress to send troops to support and tide over the current crisis first."

"Wait a minute."

The black sea spider-man stretched out his hand and shouted:

"Why don't you keep voting? Maybe someone agrees with both options."

The commander-in-chief of the Shata people was a little helpless, and turned around and said:

"Now, if you agree to join forces with humans, raise your hand!"

A large number of sea spider people raised their hands, their eyes swept away, and the commander-in-chief's face changed slightly.

Of the 37 people present, 21 raised their hands, and he looked at several of the tribal magnates and asked:

"Who are you?"

One of them, a sea spider magnate who raised his hand twice, said:

"I think I can accept whether I bow to the Empire or form an alliance with humans, as long as it can ensure the safety of my interests and assets."

The other sea spiders, who had also raised their hands on both sides, nodded and said the same thing as him.

"It's all 21 votes."

The black sea spider said loudly:

"It's all the same number of votes, it was a tie, but I received a commission from the commander-in-chief of the Fortress of Quelta two hours ago, and his opinion is that if the war is unfavorable, the alliance with humans can be given priority."

Someone in the command room suddenly exclaimed, and some people didn't believe it, he waved his hand and said:

"I know some people don't believe it, but it's true, Commander Quelta told me that the level of human civilization is higher than ours, not only do they have stronger technology than us, but they also have super flagships like Titans, he is under a lot of pressure over there, and he can't guarantee that he can hold on without support, and he won't be able to surrender to humanity in a desperate situation, so ......"

He looked at the sea spider magnates and said loudly:

"Humanity is very powerful, even the Empire may not be able to defeat them, we are now allied with them, signed an agreement, and helped humanity defeat the Empire, so as to gain tribal independence, even if it becomes a vassal, it is stronger than losing oneself after being unified by the Empire."

After listening to this, there was a lot of discussion, but judging from the current situation, many wavering people have begun to have a tendency.

After a while, someone spoke:

"If Commander Quelta has a decision, then I will retract what I just said and decide to support the alliance with humans."

"I agree."

"I agree."

In just a few moments, seven or eight people changed their minds, and the black spider-man looked at the commander-in-chief and said:

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, you see the results."

The commander-in-chief sighed:

"I see it."

The Black Spider-Man nodded:

"Then contact the human fleet on the other side and stop fighting."

"Unfortunately, this may not work."

The commander-in-chief of the Shatar fleet stood up under the shocked gazes of the sea spider magnates and the fleet staff, and calmly announced:

"I have contacted Locke Fortress a day ago and submitted a letter of surrender to the Empire, and according to the time, reinforcements from Locke Fortress will arrive in a day."

"You..."

All the sea spider people stood up with shocked faces, and the black spider people pointed directly at him and scolded:

"You're betraying the clan!"

But the commander-in-chief just clapped his hands expressionlessly and commanded

The door of the room was pushed open, and a group of heavily armed soldiers walked in, rushing straight towards the many black spider magnates present.

"What are you doing? How dare you!"

No matter how they scolded and scolded, they couldn't change the result of being taken down by the guards, and when everyone was taken, the commander turned his head and said expressionlessly:

"You'd better get some rest, and then let you out when the situation is calm."

The black sea spider man pointed at him and scolded angrily:

"You're putting your tribe in a desperate situation, and you're a sinner of your tribe."

"Hold on!"

He waved his hand expressionlessly, and the guards escorted away the many sea spider nobles who were still scolding, leaving only a few who agreed with his decision.

Soon there were only a dozen people left in the command room, and he took a long breath and said loudly:

"Time will tell, I made the right choice!"

After speaking, he turned to the staff committee on the other side, which was still in shock, and said:

"I order, the fleet will fight and retreat, the second brigade will assemble and prepare for the rear of the palace, and the first brigade and the third brigade will prepare to retreat, all the way back to the area of Star City."

Li Qing, who was located on the Titan, quickly discovered the abnormal movement of the enemy's fleet, pondered for a while, and said strangely:

"They want to withdraw to Star City and use Star City's super firepower to compete with us?"

"But although Star City has strong firepower, it can't change the situation."

He didn't think too much, he retreated, it was easy to come out, but it was not so easy to retreat, and the speed of fighting and retreating was definitely not as fast as before, and he couldn't retreat at all without more than ten hours.

Ten hours is enough time to sink all the flagships, crush the remnants of the opponent's fleet, and leave at least a third of the battleships behind, even with the fire support of Star City.

He looked at Chu Yuan and didn't say anything, but Chu Yuan nodded as if he knew what he wanted to say, and quickly issued a series of targeted fleet transfer orders.
