#596 - Chapter 596: 10 Warships Destroyed
Ok Hiong's Northern Route Army immediately adjusted its attack route upon receiving the distress call from the Southern Route Army, abandoning the plan to coordinate with Dongfang Chen's Western Route Fleet to the east and heading south.
Dongfang Chen's face twitched as he watched this scene unfold.
This Ok Hiong is truly a坑爹 (kēng diē - pit-father, meaning disappointing or unreliable), changing his advance route without even a word.
Although he didn't expect them to display much combat power, wasn't it really appropriate to abandon their allies so decisively?
Fine, you do the first day of the lunar month, and I'll do the fifteenth. (idiom: what goes around comes around)
You're still playing the decoy.
The fleet ambushing from Modo's west began to move, flanking the Northern Route Army's rear as planned.
Like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
Egula and Maya's joint fleet quickly sneaked up and immediately launched an attack.
Modo was caught off guard and immediately turned their ships to counterattack.
The Maya fleet protected the outside, with energy shields attracting all the firepower.
The Egula warships, hidden in the middle, released all their micro-robots, which swarmed like bees.
"Chirp chirp chirp~, chirp chirp chirp~"
Although the attack power of a single robot was not strong, the destructive power of a swarm attack should not be underestimated, and Modo's 10 warships struggled to cope.
The Maya fleet had been waiting for an opportunity, preparing to concentrate their firepower at the right time for a devastating blow.
The attenuation effect of the non-full power spatial lens on laser weapons was negligible, and soon one warship suffered major damage.
"Fire!"
The Maya High Priest issued the order.
The laser cannons of 30 warships simultaneously targeted the warship and fired.
"Boom~"
With a loud bang.
The enemy warship exploded instantly, scattering debris everywhere.
They panicked at this point.
The spatial lens was their important reliance for defending their warships, and if it failed, their warships would be no different from live targets.
There was no need to continue fighting, and they turned their ships to escape.
"Fire!"
The Maya High Priest issued another order.
"Boom~"
The second warship was destroyed.
The other 8 warships were already riddled with holes under the attack of the micro-robots.
"Disperse fire, don't let them run away!" Dongfang Chen shouted.
The Maya side had 30 warships, almost three against one, enough to give them a hard time.
After hearing Dongfang Chen's reminder, the Maya High Priest immediately issued an order to disperse the attack.
"Chirp chirp chirp~"
The 30 warships began to attack the 8 warships separately.
"Boom~"
Three more exploded, and the remaining five began to smoke.
"Chirp chirp chirp~"
Immediately afterwards, three more were destroyed, and the remaining two had lost power and were falling to the ground.
"Good!" Techas slapped the table happily when he saw that his side had annihilated 10 enemy warships without any losses.
This was the first time he had achieved such a significant victory in his many battles with Modo.
It was very important for boosting the morale of the soldiers.
Modo was very surprised to find that the 10 warships they had ambushed in the west had been destroyed.
In their opinion, this was extremely unreasonable.
Why did these barbarians have such advanced equipment?
This made them very puzzled.
In their view, the Egula and Maya civilizations were both uncivilized barbarians, and their technological level should be very backward.
"Notify Putian Xiaoyezi and order him to transfer the warships over to eliminate them." Inside the Moni Sect's main hall, a masked man in a black robe issued the order.
There were also many large screens in their main hall, broadcasting the battle scenes outside.
"Leader, how should we deal with Dongfang Chen's 20 warships in the north?" An elder below asked.
"Ignore them for now, concentrate our firepower and destroy that group of barbarians," the leader said.
After receiving the order, Putian Xiaoyezi immediately lifted the blockade of the Ok Hiong Southern Route Army's retreat and set off north to meet the Egula Maya joint fleet.
"Mr. Dongfang, the Great Sun Nation's warships are coming. Can we take action?" the Maya High Priest asked.
As long as the Maya priests lurking in the Great Sun Nation's warships were ordered to take action, these warships would be directly controlled by their side.
"It's not time yet. Modo still has many trump cards that haven't been played. Wait a little longer," Dongfang Chen shook his head.
"Then what should we do now?" The Maya High Priest didn't say anything more.
Facts had already proven that Dongfang Chen was always one step ahead, and it was always right to listen to him.
"Continue east, avoiding their warships. If necessary, you can enter the Caspian Sea. They will definitely not leave Modo's territory at this time," Dongfang Chen said.
"Okay."
The Maya High Priest and Techas immediately issued the order.
After receiving the order, the fleet immediately accelerated eastward.
The Great Sun Nation's warships chased relentlessly behind.
"They ran away?" Inside the Moni Sect's main hall, an elder said puzzledly.
