3051, Houyi Action (24)
.
The rumbling sound of explosions came from the surface of the base, echoing in every pipe, every room, and every corridor inside the Imperial Omega Battle Base, this once invincible battle base was fighting and trembling, the warships of the Rebel Alliance were bombarding the surface of this base from the orbit without stopping, various systems and structures were constantly collapsing and collapsing, smoke was everywhere, fire was everywhere, rumbling noises were loud in all directions, people were running, shouting, and many abandoned their posts, They have only one thought, to leave this place that is about to be destroyed.
Yes, destruction, even the most stupid people can see this, panic, chaos, chaos, and depression and despair permeate the base, and the strict military order is no longer there, and what people are thinking about at the moment is how they can find a way to survive in this desperate situation.
Imperial Marshal Steve sat sluggishly in the central control room of the battle base, motionless, looking at the shattered things around him, most of the ventilation system was out of order, the shining arc flowers were dangerously "messing" on the empty consoles, the suffocating toxic fumes had begun to seep into the central control room, and nearly half of the personnel who had been neatly and full of personnel here were hit by various hard metal components falling from the ceiling, either killed or injured, and the rest, Either by helping a colleague to the infirmary or by checking a system, or by wandering around in vain, or cursing in vain at the damn rebel allies, or even like the Imperial Marshal, just sitting there blankly, waiting for the final fate.
Let's go, let's go, out of the corner of my eye, I just saw another figure disappearing at the door of the central control room, and the Imperial Marshal was not angry, what is this, even Lieutenant General Corleone. The titular commander of this combat base also fled to check and supervise the repair of the Sunset system, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that the extent of the damage to the Sunset system is likely to be repaired in a short period of time. Even he ran away, let alone an ordinary staff officer? If you want to go, run generously, and turn back cautiously step by step, as if he, the marshal of the empire, would find out.
Nothing can save this combat base, and the escort fleet that originally defended this combat base is now unable to protect itself, and the fleet of the rebel alliance has been unable to protect itself since it left the meteorite belt. The already terrible situation immediately took a turn for the worse, and the group of dagger attack aircraft arranged in the meteorite belt to play a "riot" role was in a dilemma, either they could only continue to stay in the meteorite belt and watch the battle end, or they could rush out of the meteorite belt to pursue the rebel fleet, but in the absence of starfighter cover, and the number of enemy starfighters far exceeded the shortsword, this pursuit can only be "suicide", these shortsword attack aircraft have not tried, but before the shortsword swords who escaped by luck ducked back to the meteorite belt, The fighting there is more akin to a one-sided massacre. And as the Alliance fleet got closer and closer, and as the Empire's Super Banshees suffered heavy losses, those dreadnoughts, and some of the lightning, began to shuttle back and forth between the fleet and the Imperial fleet, attacking, returning, and loading mines. The dispatch again, like rushing to the market, was very busy, thanks to the fact that the alliance had stockpiled a large number of torpedoes in the pre-war assault supply operation, otherwise such a large consumption of quantum torpedoes would really not be able to be supplied.
However, from another point of view, such a large amount of torpedo consumption is unfortunate for the Imperial fleet, and the Alliance fleet has not yet arrived at the Omega base. This fleet, which includes seven space carriers, twelve fast battleships, thirty-seven cruisers, and hundreds of destroyers and escort ships, has basically collapsed, and the super banshee starfighters of the fleet and base can't stop the attack of the alliance starfighters at all, their numbers are not enough, and they are at a disadvantage of one to two .five, and as the battle continues, this ratio is further expanded in a vicious "sex" cycle, which is also why Risen can be so easy when he leads the third wave of attack aircraft to attack the Omega base. There were few significant reasons for the interception, and when the third wave of attack aircraft, especially the elite Risen Ninth Air Force, finished firing torpedoes and switched to air combat against the Super Banshees, the Super Banshees were in danger of being wiped out.
The defense line of the Super Banshee in the escort ground collapses. The most direct consequence was reflected in the fate of the flagship Trieste space carrier, when the bridge of this space giant ship was blown up along with the fleet commander, the already low morale of the imperial fleet instantly fell to the bottom, and the command was chaotic, resulting in no good cooperation and coordination between the ships. Fighting on their own. And this further spawned a new wave of crashes and panics, eventually. As the Allied fleet began its orbital bombardment of their primary target, Base Omega, some Imperial ships began to break away from their formation, taking cover from a handful of Superbanshees, to the nearby JP2 space jump point......
The defeat is like a mountain, the general trend is gone, irretrievable, His Excellency the Marshal closed his eyes in pain......
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, let's go, your ship is ready at Dock 37D, and it's still too late to go." A man strode into the central control room.
"Oh, it's Riley," Marshal Steve opened his eyes and smiled rarely, "you're still alive, Colonel, how did you get here?" He looked around with a wry smile, "This is not a good place to rest. ”
Colonel Riley is still alive, but the ace of the empire is not alive very well, with red eyes, tired face, sweat-soaked blond hair, open neckline, and messy combat uniform...... The Colonel, who had always been disciplined in his military appearance and discipline, rarely had such a gaffe, and he had done his best, and in this battle alone, he had shot down fourteen rebel starfighters, including six Tomcats, three Lightnings, and five Dreadnoughts.
It's a pity that the super ace is not a god, and the role he can play is limited, especially in such a super-large-scale group of aircraft chaos, the role is even less, the colonel can shoot down ten or twenty enemy planes, but he can't change the whole situation, he can't change the fate of the empire's failure, every time he shoots down an enemy plane, maybe ten or twenty friendly planes are shot down at the same time, and later, there are fewer and fewer friendly planes around him, but the enemy planes are all over the place, and the colonel can still struggle to fly back, which is already good. (Hehe, it's the same as the Cardo of 0083's Star Land)
The colonel had come back to repair the damaged left flank of the fighter, replenish the missiles and rest by the way, and in the "messy" hangar, he happened to run into several Imperial officers who had escaped from the central control room, and as soon as he heard about the current situation in the central control room and the marshal's insistence on staying there, Colonel Riley immediately became anxious.
Boom, before the colonel could reply, an explosion nearby made everyone shrink unconsciously, and more and more smoke poured into the central control room, gradually obscuring the vision, and if you don't leave, it's really too late.
"Sir, we're here to get you out of here." Another Imperial officer, who had followed the colonel in the process, also advised.
"Leave? Hmph, let's go, I'm not going to leave here, and where can I go? ”
"Your Excellency......"
"No need to say any more, go away, leave me behind, it's an order...... Bastard, what are you doing, Riley, I'm going to kill you, put me down, let me down......"
The sound gradually moved away from the central control room, getting smaller and smaller, they walked very in time, and in a few minutes, suddenly, in the room that had been blurred to almost invisible, a dazzling white light flashed, and the entire ceiling collapsed, like raindrops of metal blocks, huge rubble, broken stone chips, etc., all pressed down in one go, covering the entire central control room in an instant.
Several Super Banshee starfighters and two or three space shuttles burst out of the 37D dock filled with smoke and flames, joining the sequence of the Imperial fugitive army composed of rescue pods and various dinghys and warplanes......
They have not been intercepted, the unknown situation of the Alliance warships are still continuing to bombard the Omega base, the Alliance's starfighters are also busy destroying the Imperial battle base, the last Imperial fleet and starfighters, for the time being, there are too many small ships such as space shuttles, assault ships, rescue pods, etc. that have escaped from the battle base and various ships that are about to be destroyed, it is impossible to check and intercept each of them, and it is impossible to fire at these fugitives, no matter what, It was a war atrocity, and it was impossible for the rebel coalition, which had turned to open action, not to care about its reputation.
Nearby, several Rebel Alliance lightning starfighters passed near these fugitives, although they ignored these fugitives and did not fire, because their target was a fast battleship that was almost crippled in front of the left, but the corners of Colonel Riley's eyes couldn't help jumping, his pupils constricted, he recognized these lightning, black "color" livery, bright tulip logo, this is the fighter wing led by his opponent, but I don't know if that person is among these fighters.
The source of this fiasco can be said to be in the fatal attack on the folding force field generator by the lightning bolts of these tulip symbols.
He was very wise not to provoke, at this time he stepped forward to definitely seek death, his state is already difficult to support him to continue to fight with high intensity, not to mention that the enemy can also summon dozens of reinforcements at any time, even if he has three heads and six arms, he will definitely not be able to stop it.
Ahead is the space jump point!
"Wait, damned rebels, you'll pay for the day." Colonel Riley gritted his teeth and took one last look back at the ruined base......
