Him and their stars

Rear Admiral Zanar's fleet then began to move forward. Those were ten armored assault carriers covered by sixteen cruisers, sixteen large guard ships, and twenty large arsenal ships. They should be preparing to break through the front of the fortress.

Judging from the refining fleet movements, it seems that they have been preparing for departure for a long time.

Come on, even if you think about it on your knees, the Imperial Army itself has no sincerity in negotiating. Soback felt that if he went to the fortress and if he could really divert Yu Lian's attention by talking and laughing, the power here would definitely happen immediately. By then, even if I am still in the first fortress, I am afraid no one will care.

There are tens of millions of troops facing each other here.

Apart from me, is there no humane gentleman who still wants to work for peace? Is there really only deception left between people? Soback suddenly felt a little sad.

"The shells are coming." Viscount Serlu reminded loudly.

Soback's heart tightened. At this moment, he thought of the scene he had seen before: the frontal armor of the bridge was shattered by the fortress cannon, and he and his friends were killed in the horrific explosion and fatal heat. Evaporated on the spot.

Fortunately, a technical sergeant soon told him that according to calculations, the trajectory of the artillery shell would be staggered from his own ship's hull, and the closest distance would be more than 1,000 kilometers.

Soback nodded expressionlessly: "Keep the shield running! Where is our artillery fire?"

"No response yet." Miss Serlu said.

Well, can we withdraw? We can't really let one of our battlecruisers rush into battle, right? After all, we have fired more than a dozen rounds of artillery, can we be considered worthy of His Highness Garibian and Commander Tarlyon? Soback thought.

But at this time, Captain Peggese said: "Hit."

"Hit it? Defeated the fortress?"

"No, it was the opponent's artillery shell... that hit the Thunder carrier, the Thunder armored carrier of the Zanar fleet."

Even with Sobek's intelligence, it took him half a minute to finally understand that the shells fired from the fortress on the opposite side, after passing him, were directed towards the accelerating Zanar. The fleet passed.

"So, why did they hit it? Didn't they already notice the bombardment of the fortress? Didn't they avoid it in advance?" Soback was really incomprehensible.

"Well, it was Major General Zanar who also ordered the entire fleet to maintain a stable course." Captain Peggese said.

Soback felt as if he had heard these words somewhere, so he couldn't help but said helplessly: "Aren't you going to say that this is also my fault?"

The captain hurriedly shook his head: "No, in fact, Rear Admiral Zanar wanted the five new Frost Giant-class guard ships to deploy a hardened barrier shield on the front to see if they could block the direct attack of the fortress cannon. This will be the basis for the subsequent fortress strategy. very useful."

Soback felt that this seemed more reasonable.

But why did it hit the mothership? The mothership is still very innocent, right?

Viscount Serlu expressed the above doubts.

"Of course it was deflected. Now it can be proved that the latest hardened barrier shield can play a certain protective role even if it collides with a fortress-level railgun head-on." Captain Peggese raised his hands in the air and said loudly ; "Long live the Wisdom Palace! Long live the Skyfire Design Bureau!"

To put it bluntly, this is not really the captain's eccentricity, at least not entirely. This new shield from the Skyfire Design Bureau is very successful, and it has a considerable effect even against the powerful fortress cannon. After the cannonball hit the hardened energy barrier, it didn't feel like a stone hitting the wall. It was more like a heavy arrow piercing the outer armor and then being wrapped in the inner chainmail and silk underwear and being deflected. direction.

In this way, although the power of the artillery shells was not completely neutralized, it did not cause a fatal blow to the fleet directly covered by the shield.

As for the Thunder aircraft carrier... I can only say that it was an accident that no one wanted to see.

Fortunately, the shell only grazed the corner of the Thunder. Although the aircraft carrier was seriously damaged, it was not sunk after all.

Unfortunately, the shell seemed to cut off a large piece of flesh directly from the aircraft carrier, directly igniting several sailrooms. Although it did not evaporate the bridge of the Royal Rabbit, it evaporated more than two thousand Imperial Stormtroopers on the spot.

The Zanar fleet seemed to be truly enraged. The entire fleet began to accelerate, and soon passed the Royal Rabbit, which began to slow down. Immediately afterwards, the main force of the Tarlian fleet from behind also came up in a mighty manner.

Soback even saw with his own eyes that the Natural Heraldry also sent out a row of signals to the surroundings asking for clearance, and it should be preparing to dispatch.

The Royal Rabbit finally began to return. This was a message from the rear, requiring Soback to withdraw to the command post immediately. After all, Vice Admiral Renea Tallien was a kind person, and it was impossible for her to really let a battlecruiser take the lead in charging towards the enemy fortress.

"Rear Admiral Soback, after your noble officer meets up with your fleet, he will immediately cut into the D-7 orbit to intercept the possible ambush of the Earthlings. There are also two space hangars in the orbit of the giant planet, and lightning strike ships may be deployed. ."

Soback likes to do this kind of ambiguous tasks, which means he can play freely and is relatively safer. But he still couldn't help but said: "Sir, is Major General Zanar too aggressive?"

He didn't think that Major General Zanar could really break into the fortress if he brought a bunch of thick-skinned heavy ships A up there. Judging from his current appearance, the possibility of being ambushed is greater.

"I understand. Major General Zanar's goal was not the Seder Fortress in the orbit of Planet 4, but the newly built sub-fortress UF03 on Earth."

At present, Yu Lian has built five more sub-fortresses in addition to the main fortress, which are temporarily named UF01 to 05 by the empire.

"...Is this to lure out the Earth Fleet?" Soback asked.

He thought this was almost impossible. The five sub-fortresses built by the people on earth echo each other. Under the cover of the main guns of their respective fortresses, a dense and deadly firepower belt will be formed. As a mobile force, the Earthling fleet can barely form a balance with opponents several times their size by fighting in this airspace.

Why should they risk leaving this fire cover?

"He is a brave man, but not reckless." Soback couldn't help but remind him again.

Lieutenant General Tanlien smiled: "If your old enemy is really a common man with only courage, then who are we who are manipulated by him?"

Well, how many times do I, a poor man, need to explain this! He is really not my old enemy!

"Don't worry, this attack is also tentative. We need to comprehensively test the performance of the hardened barrier shield, and at the same time, we must create certain prerequisites for the Void Metamorphosis Plan." The female general pondered for a moment: "If there is an emergency , I will personally pick him up. As for full-scale combat, let’s wait until Admiral Rosanaio and the Titans arrive, and consider other issues.”

Well, at this time, everyone finally saw that Lieutenant General Tanlien was not only a kind man, but also a very cautious lady, and was not ready to start a full-scale war with the defenders now.

However, what you need to know is that before the Battle of Cuiling, the eldest lady of the Duke Tarlian family had always been famous for her explosive power and destructive power. In terms of bravery, she definitely surpassed most male generals. But now, less than two months have passed, but he is still so cautious and steady. between people. Sure enough, people will grow after all.

Of course, she is indeed a responsible general. The dangers and hard work were all done by myself.

The fact is of course just as General Tanlyen expected, the Zanar fleet continued to advance head-on towards the Said Fortress. In the process, he was naturally bombarded by continuous shelling from the fortress group, but probably due to the distance, none of the shells posed a direct threat.

However, just before entering the attack range of the unmanned turret array, this slightly bulky fleet suddenly made a clockwise maneuver and pounced in the direction of the enemy's No. 03 sub-fortress.

During the movement of the fleet, the most cutting-edge frigates naturally moved to the periphery of the fleet and deployed huge shields, much like the tortoise-shell formations of heavy infantry.

At the same time, the Imperial Fleet's fighter jet cluster also left the hangar early, forming a huge warning network on the outer periphery of the fleet. Obviously, this is to deal with lightning strike ships.

Of course, before that, the first thing they had to deal with was the swarm of fighter jets swarming out of the hangar platform hidden in the asteroid belt.

Thus, before the fleet battle and the fortress assault began, the brutal fighting between individual fighter planes also began.

If nothing else goes wrong, this tentative battle should have stopped after a short exchange of fire. The two sides slowly left the line of fire and returned to their bases to lick their wounds. The Imperials can test the performance of the new warships, and the Earthlings have once again repelled the enemy. Everyone has a bright future.

However, at this moment, Vice Admiral Rhaenyra Tanlien, who was on the dreadnought ship Yan Guanglong, received the latest news.

"What, the main force of the Community fleet is heading for Yeager Soback? Are you sure it is the main force?" The female general's face was full of disbelief.

"The four God-class dreadnoughts are all here, and they must be assistants. The staff analysis showed that they should have been hiding behind the No. 7 giant planet before the war started. They waited until the Sobek fleet got close, and then they left the planet's orbit and launched the attack. ."

"I understand, those two orbital hangars are traps!" The Tarlian fleet suddenly understood.

The adjutant said: "The Royal Rabbit is requesting reinforcements."

Vice Admiral Tanlien was about to immediately order the entire fleet to turn around and rescue his comrades, but suddenly realized that didn't this mean that the Seide Fortress where the Earthlings were on the opposite side was actually a little empty?
