"How? Fei Ren. Risen asked.

"Everything is working fine, the integration tests are done, there are a few minor problems, but they have been solved, the friends at Newport News are doing a good job, and I was worried about the potential problems of this recovered ship, but it really looks like a new ship." Yao glanced around the bridge, touched the new armrest of the captain's seat, and said with a sigh. The badly damaged old captain's seat has long since been removed and replaced with a new one, many of the operating and display consoles in the bridge have been updated, and even the bulkheads have been repainted, and it is difficult to find traces of the original old space carrier on the bridge of the Archangel here, and it is easy to give the impression that she is a newly built ship, but many traces of the Imperial Mothership can still be seen in many places inside the ship.

"Great, so the trial is over?"

"That's right, our problems are not big enough to need to be redocked and rebuilt, those small problems can be solved by themselves, although it is a bit rushed, but in fact, the Archangel is now fully combat-capable," the girl handed over a printout, "This is a congratulatory message from the High Command to the Archangel." ”

Risen didn't take it, he just glanced at it casually and said, "In that case, what are we going to do now?" ”

"As always, the Supreme Command asked us to continue to seize the time to conduct training, integrate the whole ship as soon as possible, and form combat effectiveness." The girl glanced at him, "I can hear you." Resson: They're hinting at something in a subtle way, and I don't think we'll have much time. ”

"Risen Flyon is right, the Archangel is the Alliance's second operationally ready space carrier, and they won't let us have as much leisure time as we do now." The door to the bridge slipped quietly, and Sonia walked in, her combat flight suit still off. Traces of sweat can still be seen on the white jade-like face.

"Thank you. Sonia. Why don't you go and change your clothes first? Look at the sweat on your body. Resson walked up to her in distress and said apologetically, "Looks like I went too far the other day, and those guys seem to have been seriously irritated." ”

"You are also for their good, lest these guys don't know the height of the sky, do they really think that the empire is their territory, and the alliance has won a lot of victories. But it wasn't them who created these victories, and these victories were also earned at a huge cost," Yang shook his head, "Fortunately, the alliance has superior lightning fighters, otherwise, if you still use the original Banshee fighter or the empire all change to rank-level banshees, the two sides are on the same starting line, and the previous victories." How many battles can be reversed by the Empire? ”

"yes. Those class banshees," Ressen's eyes suddenly appeared in front of him, and the Imperial fighters he encountered in the battle between Lombardy and Starfield XY1987-Almeron Galaxy, he couldn't help but shudder excitedly, in the battle of Lombardy. They only shot down one enemy plane in total, although it was also shot down, but two were damaged, and in the latter battle, according to the hindsight, the Banshee lost only four in total, and in the air battle, there were more than thirteen Lightning, and the performance of the Banshee was slightly lower than that of Lightning, which was confirmed by the damaged Banshee that had been recovered from Lombarty, which only showed that the Imperial pilots were terrible, or that the quality of the Alliance pilots was poor.

Risen remembered the enemy plane that was biting him in the Almeron system, he could never get rid of that damn enemy plane, if it wasn't for Sonia's support, he would have almost been thrown into the Almeron system, when did the quality of the Imperial pilots improve so exaggerated, and he felt that he needed to reassess the quality of the Imperial pilots? Those Imperial pilots who were captured after the battle had already confessed that the commander of these Banshees was Colonel Riley, this person Risen knew, but he hadn't seen Sonia, and he also knew that Colonel Riley was originally an Imperial ace pilot, and before he was transferred back to the rear, his downfall record had been as high as ninety-eight, except for those who had died in battle in the Seven Star Domains of the Great Horn. There are one hundred and forty-four crashes of the empire's first ace Sulu, he is the second ace of the empire, and he is also the first ace of the empire alive at present, although he doesn't know who the pilot of the enemy plane following him is, but Risen vaguely feels that it is very likely that it is the colonel himself who was targeted by the colonel, and Risen does not know whether he should say lucky or unlucky.

Losing to the colonel is understandable, but what about the Lombarty? Risen couldn't help but pout, it wouldn't be so coincidental that he was also the one commanded by the colonel? Risen didn't believe in this kind of accident, he rather believed that the overall level of the Imperial pilots was higher, at least among the pilots of the flying class banshees, and if the ordinary Imperial pilots were all dressed up as class banshees, and with a considerable advantage in numbers, would the Resistance Alliance still be able to achieve the previous series of brilliant victories? Even if they can still win, how much will it cost? Allied

The force is definitely not as heavy as the empire's losses, and the victory is also a certain defeat.

He clearly felt a sense of crisis rising from the depths of his heart

It's just that he doesn't know now that he really miscalculated in this matter, he miscalculated the overall ability of the Imperial pilots, and he doesn't believe in coincidences, but in fact, it was indeed the troops under the command of Colonel Riley that he met in Lombardy, and the war is sometimes so strange.

"What did you do?" Yao asked curiously, she was only responsible for the problems of the ship these days, and rarely asked about the problem of flight training.

"Well, it's nothing, it's just that I can't get used to some of the attitudes in some rookie training, I can't get used to their naivety and ignorance, what do they think they are, are imperial fighters so easy for them to shoot down? I still remember that in that battle on the Liberator, except for Hua Yunlong and Juni and a few people, most of the others who were shot down were novices. These idiots don't train seriously, they dream of shooting down enemy planes all day long, hmph, they don't know who shot down whom, and the imperial pilots' favorite is these newcomers who don't know the sky, thick and arrogant, so they want to give them a wake-up call, scold these guys, and teach those rookies a good lesson in the air, judging from the training in the past two days, it is still a little effective, and they still have a little shame. Risen said with a complacent look and a smile, "Of course, Sonia is also indispensable. ”

"I only joined later," Sonia looked at Yao's puzzled gaze and lightly slapped Resson, "He, he has finished a squadron single-handedly in a row, and no one can hold on for more than thirty seconds, no matter what position he is, even the two-plane formation can't do anything about him, they are too immature." I joined later to demonstrate how to use the two-plane coordination and environment to effectively counter an entire squadron of fighters in a gravel swarm. ”

She didn't say it directly, but said it very tactfully, but Yao had already heard the meaning of her words, who was the winner of these confrontations, in fact, she didn't need to hear it at all, how capable Resson and Sonia were, she knew it well, and her eyes widened in surprise: "You two join forces to deal with newcomers?" It's too much of a bully, even if they have a squadron. ”

"It's to give them a dismount, lest they have no one in their sights, and who knows who they will meet on the battlefield? That's right, people like Colonel Riley don't often come across in battle, but if they do, they're almost certain to die. Risen sighed, "Look at the Tulip Squadron, how many old squadron members are still there when the Seventh Fleet was established and assembled at the Haikou Shipyard?" By the time I left, the casualty rate was close to 50 percent, and the two old faces that Jessica had led them to fight in the past few months had disappeared, and now only one-third of the veteran members who were still in the squadron were the same, and even if the wounded crew members were excluded, the death or disappearance rate was close to 50 percent. ”

He raised two fingers, "Choosing one of the two sounds cruel, but this is the reality, and they are the most likely to be the chosen ones, fighting will be up to them from the beginning, the war is fair to everyone, and it is not that they will be shot down in actual combat if they train seriously in peacetime, but they will have a better chance of surviving." I tell them all this just to remind them and help them try not to be the chosen ones, but that's up to them. ”

"But at the moment, it seems to be working well, they are much more honest and serious, but it's not enough, it's still far from it." "It's better to put them through some less intense combat," he mused. ”

"There will be this opportunity, I believe it will be soon, but I don't know to what extent, anything is possible." Yao said softly.

"Sonia, you take a rest first, it's my turn next, I'll go down to the hangar right away, these stinky boys don't feel tired."

"They've seen the fighting, and they've got a sense of urgency when they realize the gap."

"I hope so."

But before he could leave the bridge, the officer in charge of communications reported loudly: "The captain has received a message from Mrs. Elmeida of the High Command. ”

"The communication is connected and displayed on the screen."

"It's the captain."

Risen stopped, and he turned to come, what would Lady Almeida say at this point? He had a vague premonition that their 'leisurely' training was over.

"How about the Captain tell you to go back to the old place and take a trip to Starfield XY-1987?" After a brief chatter, the lady spoke directly.
