Chapter 1130 High-Speed Evacuation Operation (3)
The Swan is now at the side and rear of the Red Maple Republic Fleet, with a group of reinforcements from the Red Maple Republic Fleet behind it.
Going here can avoid the front battlefield, which is equivalent to a detour.
Coincidentally, the Swan is not the only one who knows this detour.
Space fighters and cruisers are actually not very useful in such a large fleet long-distance artillery battle.
After all, the armor of the cruiser is too thin, and it will kneel down if it can't withstand a few rounds, and the space fighter can't fly beyond the artillery range between the two sides.
But whether it is useful or not depends on how it is used.
Since the head-on confrontation is not possible, just detour from the side and rear, and don't ask for any great damage. As long as it can interfere with the opponent's fleet, it's enough.
This is a standard operation, but both sides think so, so they installed it during the detour and started air combat outside the artillery battle area.
The reason why Alyssa complained that the goddess of luck is a bitch is that there are many detours for the two fleets to take, and the probability of colliding is not high. And you can just collide, and it just happened to block the route of the Swan.
Alyssa has begun to doubt whether she is possessed by some dirty thing. Her luck has not been very good recently...
It is definitely too late to change the route now. Both sides have discovered the approaching Swan. If the route is changed again, not to mention whether it will be chased and attacked, it will also be a big detour.
The sooner you leave the battlefield now, the safer it is. This delay is unacceptable.
There is no way, Alyssa had to order:
"Charge the main gun!"
The Swan is not only behind the large fleet, but also behind the flanking force.
If you can't beat the large fleet, you can beat the flanking fleet composed of several cruisers and mobile aircraft carriers.
If I can't beat the foreigners, can I beat you?
After entering the bombardment range, the Swan immediately opened fire and attacked the mobile aircraft carrier of the Red Maple Republic from the side and rear. As the distance gradually shortened, the accuracy of the artillery fire was gradually increasing.
The mobile aircraft carrier that was suddenly hit immediately began to perform emergency avoidance, and some cruisers began to turn around and aim at the Swan to fight back.
"Evasion!"
The Swan fired while pulling smoke and evading in a Z-shaped formation. From the perspective of the Red Maple Republic's cruiser, the Swan shook its head, and the huge smoke behind it made it difficult to see how big the Swan was.
What they wanted was that they were not sure how big the Swan was. After all, the absorber was on, and the signal would be obviously deformed or even disappear when the Swan was placed on the opponent's radar.
Alyssa immediately connected to the hangar communication:
"Prepare for attack!"
On the screen, Hall saluted Alyssa and said:
"Yes, Captain, I can attack at any time, but Li Chengxi will need some time."
Alyssa's head hurt when she heard it.
"What did he do again?"
"It is said that he is changing his backpack, which will take a few minutes."
When you are not allowed to go out, you run faster than anyone else. Now it's your turn, and you can't go out?
You are really angry with me, right?
That's not the case.
During the days when the Swan was at the base, Li Chengxi used his creative ability to make a new backpack, but it was not in a gravity environment at that time. Li Chengxi felt that there was a possibility of air combat in the atmosphere, so he put the new backpack on the Manta.
This is why Li Chengxi was able to use the Manta to launch missile pods when encountering enemy aircraft interception during the ascent phase.
But the performance of the Manta is not as good as that of the Lionfish, so now it is necessary to urgently change the backpack on the Manta to the Lionfish.
In fact, there is no need for this operation. Even with the existing weapons, the Lionfish is enough to crush the space fighter with its body performance.
But Li Chengxi will care whether it is necessary or not?
It's funny, I'm here to play space wars, and having fun is more important than anything else.
Others think that Li Chengxi is the machine soul of the Swan, and the machine soul will definitely listen to the captain's orders, but this is actually wrong. Alyssa can't control Li Chengxi at all.
It's one thing for me to help you, but I'm not yours.
No wonder Alyssa had a headache.
Anyway, Li Chengxi had disobeyed orders more than once or twice, so Alyssa decided to ignore it:
"You attack first, fly with the Swan, and don't go far."
"Yes, Captain, make sure to complete the mission."
Not long after, a space fighter took off from the hangar, passed the bridge of the Swan, and flew in the front on alert.
At this time, the Swan was very close to the opponent's ship. According to the current route, the Swan will pass through the lower left of the opponent's cruiser and mobile aircraft carrier.
For this light cruiser whose ownership is unknown and opened fire as soon as it met, the Red Maple Republic Army also immediately sent space fighters and used naval guns to intercept it.
The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and soon the opponent's space fighter entered the range of the Swan's anti-aircraft guns.
For a while, the anti-aircraft guns on various parts of the Swan's hull fired fiercely, sprinkling dense barrages to meet the attack.
Hall is different from Li Chengxi. If it were Li Chengxi, what would be the point of flying on alert? I would kill all the enemies, so there would be no need to protect the mothership.
Hall was very dedicated and circled around the Swan. He would chase the enemy planes that tried to break through the anti-aircraft guns. It would be best if he could shoot them down. If he couldn't hit them, he would not chase them. As long as he could drive them away, it would be fine.
At the same time, at this distance, the main guns and secondary guns of the Swan had no time to rest and fired at full force.
As for the target?
Hit the closest one first.
Although the Swan is only a light cruiser, it is the smallest in tonnage among warships and the weakest even among light ships.
But after the royalists' unsparing reinforcement, the Swan is sure to win even if it fights a high-speed destroyer two levels higher than itself. It can fight a cruiser head-on even if it fights three. As for the firepower of the mobile aircraft carrier, which is better than nothing, it can almost be ignored. Just be careful not to let the enemy planes fire a few void torpedoes at the Swan.
The cruiser closest to the Swan was the first to collapse, and its shield suddenly broke. Just at this moment, the main gun was fully charged and fired a fatal blow.
The light spear cannon penetrated the upper half of the cruiser, including the front face and the bridge, which were instantly evaporated by the high-temperature beam, leaving a clear big hole. Then the cruiser fell into uncontrollable fire and explosion, and escape pods of all sizes were launched.
After killing one ship, the Swan immediately turned its guns and aimed at another cruiser blocking the mobile aircraft carrier.
At this time, through the glass of the bridge, you can clearly see farther away, the space fighters belonging to the Swirling Water Federation and the Red Maple Republic are strangling and entangled in the main battlefield. The side and rear raid of the Swan caused a lot of trouble to several ships of the Red Maple Republic.
And it was at this time that Alyssa, who was in front, saw a purple-red flash flashing from the right side of the bridge, and it disappeared in a whoosh.
"The main gun and secondary gun are cooling down, and the anti-aircraft gun maintains firepower."
Alyssa immediately ordered to stop the shelling. Obviously, Li Chengxi went to the formation composed of the cruiser and the mobile aircraft carrier, so there was no need to waste shells and energy...
