Chapter 1560 1562 Take it easy

In the deep universe, a fleet battle of unprecedented scale is underway. The number of battleships used by both sides has exceeded the previous battle.

The 1st Space Fleet of the Alanhill Empire is engaged in intense firefights near Higgs 5 with the Watcher fleet that is charging its defenses.

The dense star destroyer light illuminated the entire battlefield, and countless battleships were neatly formed into a phalanx, lined up along the track, and bombarded continuously towards distant targets.

On the large battleship deck, the magic laser cannon turrets neatly pointed at the enemy's fleet, and the charged cannons shot a dazzling light in the universe.

After a massive salvo, there was a tragic explosion in the dark universe in the distance.

In the attacking Guardian fleet, a hit Adjudicator spaceship exploded violently, breaking into two pieces.

Farther away, a huge World Destroyer battleship was hit by the Star Destroyer Cannon, and it was also constantly being exploding, like a box of lit firecrackers.

Besides these exploding guardian battleships, countless black energy rays were attacking in the direction of the Alanhill Empire's fleet, also densely packed.

In the Alanhill Imperial fleet, tragic explosions were also constantly occurring. A cruiser was directly hit by the black energy ray, and it exploded in an instant, before even the lifeboat could be released.

Beside the exploding cruiser, a massive Alanhill Imperial battleship was also hit. The battleship shell, which had exhausted its defensive energy, was easily penetrated, the explosion had blown away most of the deck, and the turret had already floated into the universe.

The fierce battle is still going on, the battleship of the Alanhill Empire adjusts its position slightly, trying to avoid the deadly attacks from a distance.

"Hold on! Gentlemen! The enemy is just bluffing!" A captain stood in his command position with his hands behind his back, firmly encouraging his men.

His battleship was hit by the enemy's artillery fire at this moment, and the black energy that penetrated the armor exploded inside the battleship, knocking off the attitude engine on the side of the hull.

Inside the battleship, the airtight doors fell rapidly one after another, accompanied by a tense sound echoing in the dim corridor: "The hull is penetrated! The hull is penetrated! The airtight structure is damaged! The airtight structure is damaged!"

A crew member wearing a white space suit hurriedly passed through a corridor, and he lifted a cover next to the fire extinguishing system symbol. .

A console was pulled out from inside, he reached out and entered the control password, and then hurriedly pulled down the manual gate above.

"I did it manually! Why isn't there a response!" He pressed the handset and asked his companion on the other end.

"Try to pull again! Maybe there is a problem with the circuit, maybe there is a problem with your operation!" Inside the headset, came the anxious voice of the damage control officer: "The sensor shows that there is a 5 All the cabins are on fire! If you can't relieve the pressure, more than half of the cabins on the left may be blown away by the explosion!"

"I'm trying! I'm trying!" Again password, then pulled the gate next to it, the flustered and exasperated crew shouted into the intercom.

On a screen of about five inches, the red light failure prompt is still flashing. The airtight door behind the crew member suddenly fell down at this time: "Oxygen leak! Oxygen leak! Please..."

The crew member stretched out his hand and fastened the glass mask in front of him until the front One of the prompts turned green, and he continued to ask: "I did it again! Still not working!"

"Damn...you better get out of there..." In the headset, the damage control officer Desperately muttered, and then there was no sound.

Suddenly, a violent explosion occurred in the cabin next door, and the flames spread through the corridor at once, instantly engulfing several puppet robots that had just passed there.

At the same time, along with the tragic explosion, the shell of the battleship was lifted into the universe, and because of the pressure, the surrounding debris, corpses, furniture and other things all flew with it. out.

"I X..." Through the small window on the airtight door, I saw the crew member who had completely blown up the cabin next door, subconsciously cursed.

As he cursed, the air-breathing cabin he was in also exploded.

His space suit was instantly punctured by debris from the explosion, and then his whole body rolled uncontrollably into the universe with the airflow.

In his perspective, he saw that the battleship he left was disintegrating, and he also saw the officers on the bridge looking at him through the glass windows.

Then, he didn't feel anything anymore. It was pitch black in front of him, and a deep drowsiness struck.

In the bridge of the super battleship USS Serris, an officer is standing in front of Laurens, recording the commander's order.

Launs stood at the map table and issued the first order he personally issued since the outbreak of the battle: "The battleship on the left flank moves forward 1.1 million kilometers! Shorten the distance with the enemy. Keep firing continuously!"

"Compress the enemy's flank, put pressure on the opponent... so that the opponent cannot comfortably attack our right flank..." He said word by word: "The battleship on the right wing remains in its original position! Don't retreat! The reinforcements will arrive soon!"

The chief of staff hurriedly walked into the bridge headquarters and glanced at the several staff officers waiting for him. , lowered his voice and asked: "Why did the fight suddenly start? Was there no advance warning for such a large-scale battle?"

A staff officer handed the information to his superior and explained Said: "There is an early warning for the opponent's fleet movement. We sounded the battle alarm according to the situation on the front line... But this time, the opponent is obviously a little... fly into a rage out of humiliation."

"It seems that the other party wants to expel our fleet to a place far enough from the Higgs 5." Seeing the attack method of the other party's battleship, the chief of staff immediately guessed some of the other party's thoughts.

The opponent's attack is almost parallel, and such a comprehensive attack is not aimed at the 1st Fleet where he is located.

Obviously, the opponent hopes to oppress the 1st Fleet, give up its position, and widen the distance between the Alanhill Imperial Defense Line and the Higgs 5 planet.

"Completely surround Higgs 5... It seems that the other party's patience is about to run out!" He said to himself while looking down at the report.

On the battlefield, another round of enemy salvos came head-on, most of which were offset by the defensive barriers on the battleships supporting the front, and some leaked to the rear, on the side of the battleship Serris. fly outside the porthole.

As far as the eye can see, a broken battleship is being dragged away from the battlefield by the repair spaceship, and explosions from time to time make this broken battleship that has been battled and exhausted even more miserable.

"The battleship of the Powell has been completely finished... It was hit directly, and the bodies of the soldiers blown out by the explosion all floated on the Sujia..." An officer pinched a picture just now. The battle damage report sent, I don't know who it is reporting to.

"We continue to stick here, will there be problems?" a staff officer frowned, asked his colleagues around him.

He wasn't worried about what happened to his battleship, because if the Serris was really in danger, the 1st Fleet would be finished, and in his opinion, this kind of thing would never happen.

He was worried that if the enemy wanted to surround Higgs 5 more firmly, the 1st Fleet sticking to its current position would not shake the enemy's plan.

"The problem is not a problem, but the loss will increase exponentially. I don't think this is something Your Majesty wants to see." Another staff officer shook his head slightly.

After hearing his words, the chief of staff slightly frowned reminded: "Since the beginning of the battle, we have already lost more than 20 invincible-class battleships, and the loss rate is not too slow. "

"However, we can actually endure such losses. The enemy's losses are no less than ours. In such an attack, the opponent will hold on for a few more hours at most, and will take the initiative to retreat and disengage." Yes." The staff officer explained immediately.

In fact, although the Guardians can reproduce almost infinitely, their reproduction and reproduction also take time.

Obviously, the loss of the Alanhill Empire is not small, but the loss of the other party is also huge.

Having said that, although this kind of consumption will not hurt the Alanhill Empire, losses are losses after all, and the frontline commanders will naturally take the initiative to reduce their own losses, which is their responsibility.

In fact, what makes them hesitate is whether the Higgs 5 should really give up on this decision.

Actually, according to the previous strategic decision of the Alanhill Empire, Higgs 5 should be discarded as a bait after receiving a round of replenishment.

However, because of Andre and the others' persistence on the surface defense line, as well as the tenacious defense of the 1st Cosmos Fleet, the watchers have not completely surrounded Higgs 5 until now.

The 1st Fleet was within easy reach of the Higgs 5, and it only took a short blitz to reconnect with the Higgs 5.

Just like last time, the Alanhill Empire can continue to reinforce the Higgs 5 at any time, which is actually contrary to the strategic intention of abandoning the Higgs 5.

Part of the reason for not spending a lot of manpower and material resources to build a Magic Eye Transmission Gate is the same.

If the Alanhill Empire can reinforce Higgs 5 at any time and turn it into a grinding wheel, constantly fighting with the opponent - then the opponent will probably immediately turn around after realizing that this is a trap. attack elsewhere.

This has the potential to disrupt the Alanhill Empire's own defensive deployments, and from a strategic point of view, it is completely worth the loss.

Therefore, neither Laurens nor Vagron, nor even War Zone Commander Mordelair and Medeas, have made up their minds to stick to Higgs 5. That's the key to everything!

Even the commanders are entangled and weighed repeatedly, which better shows how improvised the Alanhill Empire's strategic deployment for the Higgs 5 area is.

Everyone didn't expect to play so well here that it has become a question mark to abandon it completely.

"If we continue to retreat, then Higgs 5 will completely become an isolated island surrounded by the enemy." A staff officer was obviously a little unbearable, and whispered.

There is a Dragon Clan general on the ground, and Andre, a brave commander...and several millions of soldiers reinforced there more than ten days ago...now abandoned like this, Is it a little too cold-blooded?

In fact, many people have this question, the several millions of friendly troops on the ground are really a pity to abandon.

The chief of staff was also reluctant to give up, but he had to consider the subsequent changes in the entire war situation, so he said: "A month ago, they should have been an isolated island under siege... We have been here all the time. Persistence is also to provide cover for their flanks."

Before Laurens could say anything, an officer came over at this time and handed Laurens a telegram: "Report! Marshal, General... The captain of the battleship Saint Noire is calling... Long live the Emperor Your Majesty... I will go first."

"The Saint Nolet was sunk?" I remember that battleship, when the battleship was built, it was still the ceremony that Pullen Ayke personally presided over.

"It disintegrated and sank less than a minute ago." The officer's tone was full of regret.

"..." Laurens was silent, not knowing whether he was lonely because of the loss of a battleship, or was thinking about something.

"Send a telegram to General Andre, just one word, take care." After a long time, when everyone was a little anxious, Laurens finally spoke. There was a hoarseness in his voice, which sounded a little uncomfortable.

"As ordered! Marshal!" The officer stood at attention and saluted, then turned back and left here.

"Order! Cancel the order to advance the left flank! All battleships retreat back...a distance of 10.5 million kilometers! Get out of contact with the enemy's artillery!" Order.

This is the first time the Alanhill Imperial fleet has retreated since the surface battle on Higgs 5 broke out.

And the distance of 10.5 million kilometers is no longer a distance that can be broken through by an attack-this means that it is impossible for Higgs 5 to get support from space.

......

"The 1st Fleet is calling... there is only one word, take care." The communications officer handed a message to Andrei in the underground bunker.

Andre was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face: "Let's go? It's good to go! Marshal, if you don't go, I won't dare to fight here, you go, I can just take it easy...go to hell!"
