Chapter 1475: Crimson Galaxy Suppression Operation (2)

After 6 hours of unhurried sailing, the third and fifth fleets arrived at a galaxy with a deep red star as the last jump ended.

That star is not a red giant, it is still very young, just pure, and the whole is red.

There are a total of five planets in this galaxy, three of which are gas planets, one habitable planet, and one frozen planet.

The third and fifth fleets appeared near the frozen planet farthest from the star, and when the jump ended, the light of the blurred ion beam could be seen, like fireworks appearing on the glass of the bridge.

The friendly forces are still fighting fiercely with the enemy, and according to our intelligence, the enemy reinforcements have not arrived yet.

Vice Admiral Ken immediately issued an order, and the third and fifth fleets started pulse flight to close the distance with the enemy fleet.

The pulse flight allowed the fleet to fly directly from the vicinity of the frozen planet to the edge of the gas planet. The gas planet also has a super-large red spot like Jupiter, like an unparalleled giant eye, watching everything happening in the void.

"All ships are in combat mode. Order the patrol fleet to form and move according to the route map I sent."

Further ahead is the battlefield where friendly forces and enemy forces are fighting. The third and fifth fleets reorganized their formations outside the artillery battle, looking aggressive and wanting to attack the enemy from the side.

When the jump began, the enemy fleet must have received the signal. The third and fifth fleets began to deploy their troops, and the enemy fleet also began to change its formation from bombardment to defense.

What a guts, not retreating despite the absolute disadvantage in manpower.

Are they expecting friendly forces to increase their manpower and turn the tide?

The enemy is about the size of two fleets, which may have been strengthened. According to radar signals, the total number is about 1,700 to 1,800 ships.

It is estimated that this includes the planetary defense forces of nearby habitable planets.

The Xuanshui Federation has a total of four fleets, including reinforcements, with nearly 3,000 warships. Such a huge manpower disadvantage cannot be compensated by tactics. Unless there is a major tactical error on the side of the Xuanshui Federation, it will win.

Alyssa took a special look and confirmed that there were no reactor jammers or other strange-looking ships in the enemy fleet. If everything went well, it would be a crushing victory.

Then, the third and fifth fleets maintained their formation and began to press towards the enemy, and soon entered the firing range, cooperating with friendly forces in another direction to encircle and suppress the enemy.

Before the third and fifth fleets came, the two sides had been entangled in fierce fighting for three days. It was obvious that their energy was no longer sustainable, and the specific manifestation was that the barrage of counterattacks was obviously not accurate enough.

Vice Admiral Ken ordered again, and the fleet continued to move forward.

The enemy was obviously out of shape. At this time, we can be bolder. Getting closer can increase the hit rate and eliminate these enemies in this galaxy as soon as possible.

Of course, this as soon as possible may take more than ten hours to be possible. It was only because of the arrival of the third and fifth fleets that the balance of victory had begun to tilt.

The huge fleet moved in the artillery battle, and the front line was constantly changing.

However, the cruisers and mobile aircraft carriers led by the Swan had been hiding behind the main force, and it was not time for them to appear yet.

After fighting for almost two hours, Alyssa, who was staring at the battlefield, heard the beeping sound of the communicator.

"The order has come down, arrive at the designated position."

"Inform the fleet, act according to the combat plan, cruise speed!"

"Understood, half the ship speed!"

After receiving the order, the Swan led the cruise ship formation to break away from the main fleet and start pulse flight again.

About three minutes later, the pulse flight ended, and the cruise ship formation was blocked by a huge meteorite belt.

At the other end of the meteorite belt is the habitable planet of the Crimson Galaxy. The cruise ship formation will be responsible for suppressing the planetary defense team and opening a passage for the landing troops.

"Pay attention to the enemy forces that may be hidden in the meteorite belt. Open the air radar and scanners that can be turned on."

To reach the habitable planet, you must pass through this meteorite belt. The Xuanshui Federation used the meteorite belt to ambush the Red Maple Republic Fleet before. There is no reason that the other party would not use such a simple battle method.

So you must be careful.

Alyssa issued a new order, ordering the fleet to pass under the asteroid belt. If there were enemy forces hiding in the asteroid belt, the fleet could launch a counterattack at any time.

The formation consisting of more than 80 cruisers and more than 40 mobile aircraft carriers quickly adjusted their posture and followed the Swan to pass from below.

At first, everything was quiet. Except for the occasional light from the main fleet reflected on the glass, there was nothing worth noting.

Until the fleet had gone almost halfway, Vilania suddenly reported:

"A gunner saw the engine light appear in the asteroid belt."

An Yun also said:

"There was a vague signal response from the air radar, which might be a space fighter and torpedo."

Alyssa did not hesitate to immediately order through the command system:

"The entire fleet will act according to Plan No. 3, and immediately release carrier-based aircraft for air defense!"

When the battle plan was issued, Alyssa had a hunch that there would be an ambush here when she looked at the star map, so she was naturally not panicking now.

If the commander can make a good prediction, his subordinates will certainly not panic, even if most of them are recruits, they just need to act according to the plan issued before departure.

The aircraft carrier's electromagnetic catapult quickly launched one carrier-based aircraft after another. Friendly forces completed their formation near the fleet. At this time, a large number of torpedoes had exploded near the cruise ship formation.

That was blown up by anti-aircraft guns. The Maple Republic should have learned from the experience of the Tornado Federation in the meteorite belt lightning operations, but it may be that the actual conditions do not allow them to learn the most important point.

Quantity.

If the number of saturation attacks is not reached, it will not pose a threat to the fleet, even the patrol fleet can withstand it.

Alyssa continued to let the fleet sail and adjusted the fleet route on the command system. The carrier-based aircraft of both sides had already started fighting in the meteorite belt overhead. From time to time, there were orange explosion flashes reflected on the bridge of the Swan, but it was no longer surprising.

"Visually confirmed that the enemy patrol fleet is the planetary defense team, waiting outside the meteorite belt."

The Maple Republic really has no soldiers, and even the planetary defense team has been pulled up to make up the numbers.

"Change the route, and the entire fleet is ready for artillery battle."

Alyssa issued a new order, and the fleet that was originally rushing towards the habitable planet began to turn and tried to rush out of the meteorite belt from the other side.

After all, there is a fleet waiting in front, and rushing out directly is to hit the muzzle of the head with a gun.

Seeing the cruise fleet turn around, the planetary defense team also started their engines and began to change positions again.

Theoretically, both sides have now entered the firing range, but there is a meteorite belt in the middle, and the accuracy of the firing is almost negligible. Even if they aim at it, they will be blocked by the meteorite.

Instead of firing randomly, it is better to change positions.

There is only one risk in doing so. If your carrier-based aircraft cannot stop the enemy's carrier-based aircraft, you may be hit by a torpedo during the change of position.

But speaking of this, Alyssa is not worried at all.
