"Intrusion alert, intrusion alert, please note all personnel, please note that the Imperial fleet is approaching the base, and all personnel immediately assemble at their respective ships and evacuate the Yasen base according to the second plan....... Intrusion Alert, Intrusion Alert, Discover the Imperial Invasion Fleet...... All personnel immediately assemble at their respective ships and evacuate the Yasen base according to the second plan......"

Accompanied by the terrible sound of sirens, there were emergency evacuation notices over and over again, and the atmosphere that was already very oppressive was now getting tighter and tighter, and the dock was in a hurry, and there were people who were in a hurry and began to board the ship.

"The Empire isn't going to follow the archangel to the Yasen base?" Risen felt a little apprehensive, if that was the case, their sin would be great, but they had already noticed whether there was an Imperial tracking in the rear during the retreat.

"I don't know, but it shouldn't be, otherwise we wouldn't have retreated according to the second plan." Yao's face was solemn, she knew the specific details of the second plan, which meant that the Imperial fleet appeared in the direction of another spatial jump point, not the space jump point where they jumped into this star field. However, it was a surprise to her that the Imperial fleet had raided the Yasen base at this time, especially since they were carrying such important data.

"Those so-called bigwigs and technical officials haven't arrived until now, what are we going to do? Fei Ren, you're the captain, it's up to you to decide. Zhang Xiaojing asked.

"You immediately go to your respective starfighters and stand by to attack, I told Amy to prepare for the Archangel's departure, and by the way, contact the base and urge them to hurry up." The girl looked at the time, "If the Imperial fleet sends fighter jets, they will only take more than thirty minutes at most, so we can wait for ten minutes at most, and then we will leave here, leave them alone, let them evacuate on other ships, and then try to converge later, ensuring the safety of the data on the Archangel is the first priority." ”

"Understood." The girls replied loudly.

"Yun Yun, you are here, my little ancestor, you are about to scare people to death, I couldn't find you all over the ground just now, and I thought something happened to you." A middle-aged woman hurried over.

"I'm sorry, Aunt Wu. But Yunyun wants to share a boat with everyone, is that okay? The little girl looked at everyone timidly, with a pitiful pleading expression on her face.

"How's that going to work? Yun Yun is obedient and goes back with this aunt. Yao coaxed in a low voice.

"I ..... I ....." The little girl's eyes gradually turned red, and crystal tears gradually filled her eyes.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman sighed, shook her head, and said, "Okay, don't cry, good boy, Auntie understands Yunyun's intentions, then you can evacuate by the Archangel, and Auntie over there will tell the others." ”

"No, it's too dangerous, the Archangel is a cruiser and may participate in the battle at any time......" Yao immediately objected.

"It is precisely because the Archangel is a battleship that it is safer for Yunyun to follow you." The middle-aged woman glanced at Yun Yun, blocked her body in front of her, and whispered to Yao Feilun, "Captain, please, you must know that our ship is a transport ship, unarmed, slow, late departure, and no escort, and it is very vulnerable in battle." I know that the ship of the Archangel is safer than to evacuate on that slow transport ship, and it is safer to follow you. ”

"No escort? How so? Hearing the middle-aged woman's words, Risen was surprised, so once he was caught up by an Imperial fighter or a battleship, it would be completely over.

"You forgot, almost all of the Alliance forces in this vicinity have been transferred to participate in Operation Firefox, and the Yasen base is certainly no exception, otherwise why do you think they would send us to meet you?" Zhang Xiaojing reminded him in a low voice.

Ryson's mouth was wide open, unable to speak.

"Alright," Yao finally nodded in agreement, "Iasilia, you take Yunyun on the boat, and the others are ready to attack immediately." ”

"Thank you, Aunt Yao, I know that Auntie is a good person." The little girl burst into tears and burst into laughter.

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

Risen climbed the boarding ramp and sat in the cockpit of the Lightning Starfighter again, inspecting them one by one according to standard procedure to make final preparations before departure.

It didn't take long, all the systems lit up the green light, everything was normal, it took much less time than the first time to set up the system before, there was nothing to worry about, this lightning fighter was more complete than before, the ground crew was very efficient, as early as the way back to the Yasen base, the air-to-air image recognition missiles that were not in the previous battle had been installed on this fighter, these missiles all belonged to the imperial version of the model, the Federation's image recognition missiles were not equipped with lightning fighters due to different specifications and interfaces, I don't know where these ground crews got these missiles.

"Archangel, Inazuma Four is ready to strike at any time." He immediately reported his situation to the bridge of the Archangel.

"Understood, Inazuma Four, continue to be on standby."

Ruisen leaned his body lightly on the seat, and somehow, he remembered the words that Zhang Xiaojing reminded him before, this time the alliance acted for Firefox, but it was really ...... Let's hope nothing happens to these retreating ships.

"Angel Number Four Ready......

"Angel Number Six Completes Sortie Preparation ......"

"Angel Number 19 Ready......

Risen and all the members of the Blue Angel squadron reported to the control center of the Archangel one by one, and when the last member of the team also reported that they were ready, Amy turned to Yao Feilun, "Captain, all fighters report that they are ready for sortie." ”

Yao nodded, the girl's attention was now focused on the time that kept passing minute by minute, it was almost the time she set, but she still hadn't received the report that the technical officials had boarded the ship safely, she had already asked Aimi to contact the base, and the base had already informed her in a few minutes that those people were already on the way, why did they still not arrive after so long?

She looked beyond the bridge, the retreating transport ships and shuttles of the Alliance, one after another, were closely following each other, and were taking off one after another to leave the Yasen base, flying towards the withdrawal point, and there were explosions in the base from time to time, which was the Alliance personnel preparing to blast and destroy the key facilities of the base, to ensure that even if the empire occupied the base, it would not be able to get any useful information from the base.

A soft sound reached her ears, signaling that the time limit she had set had arrived. She stood up, she couldn't wait any longer, and if she couldn't catch up, let them evacuate in another boat.

Just as she was about to give the order to set sail, a communication came from the Archangel's boarding hatch, "Captain, they're on board. ”

Thankfully, it was just in time, Yao breathed a sigh of relief and ordered loudly, "Amy, set sail." ”

"Yes, Captain."

The massive cruiser's body slowly rose from the ground with a rumbling roar, broke away from the dock, and flew towards the dock door, the highly automated metal dock door quickly opened, and the Archangel rushed out and entered the free space before the dock door was fully opened.

The vicinity of this space is full of ships evacuating from the Yasen base, they are organized into a slow flotilla of end to end, large transport ships form the backbone of the fleet, and smaller shuttles accompany them, slowly retreating to the withdrawal point, the formation is very standard, but unfortunately the ships and fighters that should be on guard in front of and behind these fleets and around them are not there any trace at this time. The only battleship, the Archangel, as a specially modified cruiser, was naturally much faster than these ordinary transport ships or shuttles, and instead of joining the fleet, she crossed these ships at a very fast speed and headed directly to the space jump point at the retreat point.

"Captain, the commander of the Yassen base has requested to speak with you."

"Caught on the screen." Yao nodded, and an anxious middle-aged man's head immediately appeared on the big screen in front of the Archangel bridge.

"Captain, thank goodness it's a pleasure to see you." The middle-aged man greeted first.

"Commander, that's what I want to say, I can see that you have something." The girl was no stranger to the Commander himself, and she had worked well with the Commander when the Archangel was at the Yasin base.

"Yes, Captain, it's hard for me to say, but I have to say that there are some new circumstances in the retreat operation, and a few ships may have to lag behind, maybe they will be intercepted by Imperial fighters, but we don't have any escort forces such as fighters or warships, so we need the assistance of the Archangel in order to cover the entire fleet to evacuate this star field smoothly."

The girl's face changed slightly, and she slowly spoke, "Commander, you don't know what mission the Archangel is carrying out this time, how important the things on the ship are to the Resistance Alliance, and even, the vacancy of the escort force at the Yasen base is all because of this thing, if something happens and the Archangel is sunk, can you imagine how serious its consequences are?" ”

"I know, Captain, I know very well how much our resistance alliance has paid for it, if I am not sure, I will not make this request to you, please listen to my request and related plans first, you can carefully consider it and see if it is feasible, if you think it is still not possible, I naturally know what is the most important thing, and I will respect any decision you make." The commander hurriedly explained.

"So .....," the girl pondered for a moment, and then decided to listen to the request of the commander himself.

"Thank you so much. Our goal is time, and we just need to be able to delay a little bit...... What I need is a squadron of fighters that can take on the Imperial Banshee fighters..... I know that the pilots of the Blue Angel Squadron aboard the Archangel are all elite members of the Federation...... I also know that the Archangel used to be loaded with some energy pulse torpedoes while at the Yasen base, and the utility of these torpedoes has proven its effectiveness well during this operation of the Archangel......"
