My empire of stars

"All battleships are ready to disperse! All weapons enter the charging state!" The imperial commander squinted his eyes and issued the order to the entire fleet through the mental network.

After experiencing five salvos from the Federation, the Imperial fleet finally reached the optimal firing range of its main guns.

After the fifth salvo ended, the Imperial warships that were originally hiding behind the White Dwarf warships suddenly spread out in all directions, and aimed all the weapons on the warships at the Federation's unmanned turrets and space fortresses.

"The main gun is aimed at the space fortress, the secondary gun is aimed at the unmanned turret, and the missiles are launched at the same time!" As the firing order arrived, the imperial warship began to flash with flashes caused by weapon firing, and anti-matter shells spurted out from the barrel. out.

At the same time, the armor plates on both sides of the battleship were opened again, and missiles were ejected from the launch bay of the battleship into the air. The tail thrusters were ignited in the air and rushed towards the federal unmanned battery.

In less than a second, the entire starry sky was filled with artillery shells and missiles launched by the Empire.

The missiles flying all over the sky each chose an unmanned turret as their target and rushed over.

At the same time, the white dwarf star warship also opened the armor on the hull, exposed its main gun and aimed it at those space fortresses with a diameter of dozens of kilometers.

Bang bang bang, the sound of impact accompanied by the cannonballs being loaded into the gun barrels spread into the battleship.

The shells filled with large doses of anti-matter began to be accelerated by the acceleration station in the rail gun.

These shells rotated out of the muzzle of the main gun, and the tail propeller ignited in mid-air, accelerating the shells to a higher speed.

In the blink of an eye, these shells hit the armor of the federal fortress. The outer shields of these fortresses had already been eliminated by the main guns of the Imperial Zeus-class battleships.

When the main gun of the white dwarf star battleship hit the armor of the fortress, the antimatter inside was instantly pushed to the head of the shell and came into contact with the armor of the fortress.

The antimatter, which had lost its position, immediately began to annihilate each other with the metal that made up the fortress armor, and a large amount of energy was released.

In an instant, the thick armor on the outer layer of the fortress could not withstand the violent energy released and began to bend inwards.

The alarm bells blared in the fortress instantly, the lights in the entire fortress turned bright red, and the alarm lights in the corridors were flashing.

As the outer armor of the fortress continued to deform under the impact of energy, a harsh sound of metal twisting came from the entire fortress, which scratched people's eardrums.

At the same time, the huge vibration caused the staff in the fortress to start to sway from side to side. The artificial gravity originally used for convenience caused people to be affected by the vibration.

A few seconds later, the corridors in the fortress began to twist and deform, data cables fell from the ceiling to the floor, and huge cracks began to appear on the walls.

impossible! impossible! All the staff in the fort were in disbelief.

You must know that the fortress they are working in is a super fortress with a diameter of fifty kilometers and armor that is hundreds of meters thick!

How could such a fortress with such a powerful defense not be able to withstand a volley from the opponent! This is absolutely impossible! The soldiers in the battleship were running frantically in the corridors, trying to escape to the nearest escape cabin.

Looking at the corridor with an ever-increasing twist, at the walls that were already flickering with sparks of electricity, and at the data lines flying around, the soldiers no longer believed that this fortress was still safe.

The life of this fortress is coming to an end! They must escape from here.

However, what these soldiers did was just in vain. Now the energy shock caused by the anti-matter shells fired by the main guns of the white dwarf star warships has spread throughout the entire bodies of several fortresses.

These fortresses finally began to be unable to hold on, and explosions of various sizes began to occur inside.

Soon the fortress' armor could no longer withstand the energy impact from the outside and began to break into tiny fragments.

The space fortress, which was attacked from both inside and outside, was engulfed by several larger explosions in the blink of an eye, and turned into several huge debris areas after a burst of dazzling light.

The debris caused by the explosion of these battle fortresses shot outward crazily, and some unmanned turrets that could not dodge were simply submerged by the rain of debris from the battle fortress. There was no need for the empire to take action. These unmanned turrets next to the battle fortress were destroyed by debris. Completely destroyed.

"Fifty-one percent of the unmanned forts within the federal defense line have been cleared, and the opponent's eight space fortresses have also been destroyed."

"At the same time, the opponent's defense fleet of 135,800 warships was also completely destroyed."

"Now the opponent only has a bunch of unmanned turrets with almost zero defense power. It can be said that we have won this node!" An officer reported to the commander.

At the same time, the First Fleet of the Imperial Expeditionary Force also received this good news. Li Mingze knew that it was time for the First Fleet to set off.

The First Fleet and the Fortress, the flagship of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, jumped into hyperspace and rushed towards the middle point of the Federation defense line.

At this time, the Federation also received distress messages from four important nodes on the defense line. One of the nodes had completely lost contact with the headquarters, and it was probably in danger.

The two million fleets originally hidden by the Federation on the front line could no longer hide anymore. They flew out from behind the planets in the star system in the middle of the defense line, divided into four parts and rushed towards the nodes that needed their support.

And when this hidden fleet jumped and disappeared, the empire's first fleet arrived in the star system where they had just been hiding.

On an inconspicuous planetary satellite in this star system, a base hidden tens of kilometers underground was in chaos.

This base is where the headquarters of the entire federal defense line is located. Originally, this base has always been hidden, and there are two million fleets responsible for defense, so this headquarters can always be said to be extremely safe.

But who would have expected that just as the fleet protecting the headquarters disappeared, a fleet from the empire came to kill him!

"We must activate planetary defense measures immediately!" A general in the base shouted to the remaining generals.

"No, we should continue to remain silent. After all, the empire still doesn't know that this is the headquarters of our defense line! The so-called most dangerous and safest place. As long as we are not exposed, we are safe!" A general took a photo. the table retorted.

"Impossible! It's impossible that this Sith Empire doesn't have equipment for scanning planets. If they discover the existence of our base first, it will be over! We might as well use planetary defense facilities to gain first-mover advantage!" Another general who advocated attack stood up out.
