As soon as the Archangel jumped out of hyperspace, a large number of red dots immediately appeared on the screen of the ship's sensors, and the red warning lights flashed and dazzled people's eyes, and the sharp alarm sounded in a loud voice.

"Report the situation." Yao didn't panic, she calmly sat in the captain's chair and gave orders in a deep voice.

"Captain, the sensors detected the Imperial fleet on the periphery of the stardust belt, at a distance of 34,000, including one Empire-class space carrier, three Sabre-class cruisers, five escort destroyers, and many Banshee fighters. Wait, there are eight Imperial Banshee fighters flying in the direction of the Archangel, very close, less than 5000, and they are chasing a friendly starfighter. The female crew member who reported the situation raised her head and said with some confusion, "But I have never seen a friendly fighter of this type before, and the computer system cannot recognize it, and the model identification mark is unknown." ”

If you haven't seen it, if you have seen it, it wouldn't be worth the effort of the Resistance Alliance. Yao thought to himself, it seems that he is really in a hurry, and it is not in vain to sail at full speed on this road, if he is one step late, this time it is estimated that he will run in vain, it doesn't matter if that guy is dead, the things he is carrying cannot be lost, and the anger he suffered before will also fall on his head.

She connected the communication, "Xiaojing, let our sisters attack immediately and cover.... Belch.... Cover the detachment of the Inazuma Four, you are the elite of the Federation, and two against one, shoot down or drive away the eight Banshee fighters that are chasing as fast as possible, and then return immediately, the Empire has a fleet here, we can't stay too long. ”

"Got it, Fei Ren." The captain raised his finger and made a triumphant V gesture, "Just leave it to me." ”

"Launch Hellcat, Blue Angels, sortie."

"Understood, Angel No. 4, Zhang Xiaojing, Hellcat Fighter, let's go now......"

"Angel, Iasilia, Hellcat fighters, dispatch."

........

The Hellcat starfighters of the Federation, which had been prepared for a long time, were ejected one after the other from the two launch lanes of the Archangel, and in less than two minutes, all seventeen Hellcat fighters had left the ship and flew towards Resson's lightning starfighter......

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Resson desperately made the lightning roll sharply to the left to avoid the missile attack, and at the same time looked at the display screen of the fighter, he felt that his brain was a little insufficient, and even wondered if his eyes were discolorblind, he couldn't believe what he was seeing: yes, the bright spot was indeed green, which meant that the identification signal was correct, and it was a friendly receiving ship. However, the computer system on the fighter plane quickly recognized the model of the friendly ship, which was clearly a Federation Nebula-class cruiser, and he had seen this type of ship during the escort mission in the Henison Meat Grinder Campaign, so he could not be mistaken.

Perhaps there was something wrong with the computer identification system, Risen looked up and glanced in the direction of the Nebula-class cruiser, too far away and too small to see clearly. Just when he was a little puzzled, there were some small bright spots in front of the Nebula-class cruiser, still green bright spots, but this time it was even more outrageous, the system recognized that it was the Federation's Hellcat fighters, and there were seventeen of them, isn't it normal for a cruiser to carry a team of about twelve fighters?

"What the hell is this for? How did the Federation come to the interior of the empire? Risen felt a little overwhelmed, should he trust these "allies"? He was eager to figure out what was going on. But no matter what happened, one thing was certain, just in the direction of that cruiser, there must have been a spatial hop there, and that cruiser would never have spawned out of the void.

The Imperial fleet had already spotted the Federal Nebula-class cruiser and the Hellcat fighters that had appeared out of thin air, and all the Imperial warships, including the USS Bastion, were sirens, and the ship was tense and hectic, the pilots ran towards their fighters from the lounge, and the ground crew hurriedly hung the badigatus attack planes with volume torpedoes, ready to let them take off in the shortest possible time. All the banshees who were flying in space had changed course, and the two cruisers and two destroyers accelerated away from the fleet and rushed towards the Archangel cruiser of the Federation.

The eight Banshee fighters who were getting closer and were chasing Risen seemed to be a little flustered, but no wonder they didn't expect to fight the Federation here, after all, the Federation is the number one enemy of the Empire. What they thought was an easy mission to chase down an enemy plane was now a sudden change in the blink of an eye, and their opponent was replaced by a Federation Hellcat, and the enemy had twice as many starfighters.

Perhaps the best response for these Imperial pilots is to retreat, join up with the other Banshee planes and ships that are approaching, and then engage in battle with these Federation Hellcats. However, once they gave up the pursuit, it meant that the starfighter they had been pursuing for a long time slipped out of their hands, and whether it was the controller of the keyhole AWACS aircraft, the commander of the space carrier Bastion, or the pilots of the Empire's lead pilot, they didn't want to let go of this hateful enemy plane that had been playing with them for so long.

So, the Empire made a fatal mistake by dividing the eight Banshees into two teams, one of which met the Hellcats as they were approaching, while the other two Banshees continued to pursue the Lightning Fighter that had just avoided the missile attack.

Risen quickly felt the threat to himself diminished, and he decided that no matter what happened to the Federation cruiser and those Hellcats, at least they were friendly forces, they had a common enemy, and besides, he couldn't run now, because just when he was dodging the missiles and making a maneuvering turn, he had already let the two banshees chase after him, and he had to clean up the two banshees that had been wrapped around him, and he had just briefly fought these two Banshee fighters, The two pilots weren't particularly skilled, and with his knowledge of the Banshee, he felt he could handle them.

Risen reached into the energy management system and readjusted the energy management system of the Lightning fighter, redistributing some of the energy to the fighter's weapon system, and the row of lights on the cannon charge indicator, which had turned dark gray, began to slowly turn green one by one. He used his flying skills and began to attack and occupy positions, believing that after he managed to take position, his cannon energy should be replenished. However, he felt that it was really funny, he used to drive the banshee and these kittens to fight to the death, but he didn't expect that today, it was his turn to join forces with the kittens to deal with the banshee.

"Archangel calls Inazuma Four, Archangel calls Inazuma Four, do you hear me?" At this moment, a girl's voice came into his cockpit, and a girl's head appeared on the screen.

Knowing that my code name is Inazuma Four, and knowing the communication frequency of the Resistance Alliance, that's right, it is undoubtedly a friendly army, as for why it is the Federation's Hellcat and the battleship, I will ask later when I have time. What a beautiful woman, but? Risen felt a little strange, why did this face look familiar?

"I'm Inazuma Four, thank you for your assistance, it's so timely." Risen said gratefully, he didn't think much of it, he was still fighting two Banshee fighters.

"Inazuma Four, your mission is not to fight the Empire, don't forget the goal of Operation Firefox, quickly evacuate the battlefield, leave from this star field, and we will meet you at the other end of the space jump point." The girl's voice was grim, and the cold chill in her eyes made Risen unconsciously a little afraid.

"Yes, but enemy planes are pestering me, and I don't know the coordinates of the jump point yet." Risen replied with a stumbling voice.

"I'll let Xiaojing send someone to cover you, and as for the coordinates of the navigation point, we'll pass it on to your fighter, over." As soon as the girl finished speaking, she slammed a hard fist into a button, and she didn't know what was going on, anyway, when she saw that face again, her mood turned bad.

Without waiting for Risen to answer, the communication was immediately cut off, Risen was a little inexplicable, he intuitively felt that the girl's temper was not small, as if he had some big holiday with himself, but he didn't offend her, it should be something else that annoyed her, but he shouldn't have sent his temper to a person he met for the first time, Risen thought.

However, he quickly put this matter aside, a banshee had already fallen in front of him, although the angle was not particularly good, but it should be okay, he quickly aimed at the enemy plane, pulled the trigger, and red and white energy beams flew out immediately.

The first few energy beams have deviated from the target, obviously the amount of advance calculated by the computer has a certain deviation from the actual amount, Ruissen quickly made manual corrections, and the follow-up energy beams immediately and accurately caught up with this banshee fighter, the fuselage of this fighter kept shaking, and the shield of the fighter plummeted under the attack of the energy beam, when the shield was completely neutralized, the two beams passed through the shield and hit the banshee fighter, this banshee trembled a little, and struggled to fly diagonally to the left.

Just as Ryson wanted to continue the attack and completely destroy the enemy plane, the banshee's companions had already rushed over from his side to cover it, and Resson had to avoid the banshee's attack first, his shield strength had been consumed too much before, and he didn't want to let the enemy plane shoot him down because he was careless.

He gently steered the fighter to get out of the way, and turned his attention to the banshee he had wounded, his two beams must have broken some of the enemy plane's control systems, because the banshee now seemed to be constantly turning to the left, and its shield had been pierced before, making it an easy target for the banshee, and Ressen easily guessed where the target would be next. Several beams of light directly hit the banshee, sending it to spin in space, sparks and green, yellow smoke coming out of the two engines in the tail. Shortly after the Imperial pilot ejected, the banshee exploded.

"Well played, Inazuma Four, I can't see that you really have two hands, let's go, we are here." Another crisp girl's voice complimented, followed by two Hellcats, who immediately surrounded the other Banshee.

"You, you ......" Risen swallowed hard, he was really frightened by the two Hellcats, the familiar sky blue, he had seen, wasn't that the Blue Angel livery he had seen when he first entered the Henison system? He and Schneier also fought hard with them, suffered a big loss, and he realized a little why this cruiser was a cruiser of the Federation, and these fighters were Hellcats. Oh my God, he didn't expect him to fight with them, he remembered that Captain Clark had said that almost half of these women were aces, and it seemed that the banshees were unlucky.

He set his eyes on the other squad of banshees, only for a moment, there was only one banshee left, sweat, Ressen's head was sweating slightly, it was very strong, and the last one should be shot down quickly.

Now there is only one question left, how did the Blue Angels get to the rear of the Empire, and how did they work with the Resistance Alliance? Risen felt like he was going crazy, and now he just wanted to know what was going on.

Dididi, a message appeared on his cockpit screen, it was a navigation message from the cruiser Archangel, he pressed receive to confirm, and within seconds the information was downloaded to his fighter computer.

"Inazuma Four, I'm Angel Four, get out of here, the Empire's hordes of Banshee fighters are about to arrive." The crisp female voice urged again.

"Understood." Now is not the time to think, get out of here first, and then there will be time. Resson flew in the direction of the Archangel while opening the updated star map, the coordinates of the secret space jump point were already displayed on the star map, he adjusted the direction slightly, and the lightning starfighter flew straight towards the space jump point that almost killed him......

"Captain, that friendly starfighter has successfully passed the jump point."

"Captain, the Imperial attack aircraft group is approaching, there are twenty-four shortsword attack planes, and the escort Banshee has twenty-seven ......"

"Captain, the Archangel has turned one hundred and eighty degrees." The girl in charge of driving, Ami, reported.

"I see, Amy, get out of here at full speed." Yao nodded, and she switched the communication to the Blue Angels' channel, "Xiaojing, let our people return quickly, we are leaving." ”

"Understood, Philen, sisters, do you hear me? Mission accomplished, let's get out of here. ”

Upon receiving the news that the last Hellcat had returned to the Archangel, Yao ordered loudly, "Start jumping." ”

Before the first wave of torpedoes arrived, the Archangel disappeared without a trace.......
