Chapter 1313 Stargate Attack and Defense (1)
The situation of the three scripts has undergone some changes, but Li Chengqi's attention is now on Alyssa, and he did not notice the situation of Viola and Yang Yiyi.
The Swan rejoined the fleet, and then the fleet rejoined the main fleet.
The large fleet composed of nearly 4,000 warships also lost hundreds of warships in this artillery battle, including more than 170 cruisers that were not good at fighting armor bombs.
In addition, this also consumes a lot of supplies.
According to the normal battle process, the fleet should rest and recuperate in the currently captured star system, waiting for the replenishment of troops and supplies. Most importantly, it must wait for reinforcements to arrive, take over the territory they have captured, and prevent the retreating enemies from attacking. The army came back with a killing blow.
But the Red Maple Republic Army will not wait for you to finish everything.
The Star Gate was recaptured, but only half of it was recaptured. The other side of the Star Gate is still within the control of the Red Maple Republic.
It is equivalent to pulling out the blade of the dagger inserted into one's chest, but the handle is still in the other person's hand.
The Meteor Operation is only half successful so far. Taking down the Star Gate on the other side is the ultimate effect that the Meteor Operation wants to achieve.
Eight hours after the Red Maple Republic fleet retreated, the fleet that completed emergency supplies immediately set off and rushed to the Star Gate.
Although the enemy forces on Stantum have not been completely eliminated and the city has basically not been liberated, the six control centers have been brought under the control of the Spinning Water Federation and can freely decide whether to open the star gate.
It's a bit emotional to say that the last time I got close to the Star Gate, the Swan escaped from the other side and was chased everywhere.
Now, the Swan is mixed with the fleet, preparing to re-enter the Star Gate and take it back.
The offensive and defensive positions have changed.
Since the other side of the Star Gate is still in the hands of the Red Maple Republic, it can be predicted that once the Star Gate is reopened, the opponent will definitely target the warships emerging from the Star Gate and attack them. Of course, cruisers like the Swan cannot take the lead.
The Spinning Water Federation specially mobilized three modified starships, dismantled most of the cannons, and stretched the shields to full capacity.
They will serve as shields to protect the fleet as it passes through the stargate.
All warships were in their respective positions, and the fleet commander issued an order to move forward.
The huge triangular hole immediately lit up with a rotating light blue light, which meant that the star gate was activated. As long as you pass through it, you can reach the other side across a distance that requires at least two months of sailing.
Alyssa didn't know if Li Chengqi opened the star gate. After all, judging from Sophia's and the others' reports, there was something wrong in the process of regaining control of the star gate. Only after using the boot disk to intervene, they successfully seized it.
When it comes to Li Chengqi, he has always remained silent. This was normal when Yinghu was still on the bridge, but Yinghu has completed his mission and is now on the ground. When the bridge is full of his own people, Li Cheng Qi still remained silent.
This made Alyssa feel very uncomfortable, even a little panicked. Father Pro's comments about Li Chengqi still seemed to be lingering in her ears. She didn't know what form he would take in this war.
Hope it doesn't cause any big trouble.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
The fleet gradually passed through the huge star gate, with the cruiser and aircraft carrier formation at the end of the team. It was their turn to take action only after almost everyone had entered.
This is actually a good thing. After all, the later you enter, the less you need to face the enemy's firepower.
While Alyssa was still waiting, she let the people on the ship deal with her late lunch casually.
As the engine ignited, the Swan followed the fleet and slowly sailed into the stargate. The flashing light directly in front of the bridge seemed to remind everyone that there was a battlefield ahead, so don't be careless.
After about ten seconds, the light faded away, replaced by countless ion beams piercing the dark void, the orange flash of explosions, and the flashing signals of various colors on nearby battleships. "Follow the fleet and we will leave the airspace around the star gate."
If you stay at the door, you will be a target waiting to be beaten. The cruiser and mobile aircraft carrier formation began to descend rapidly, avoiding the firing line of the main fleet.
The main fleet that came in first had already fought with the defenders of the Red Maple Republic, or in other words, the fight had already started before the big fleet arrived.
As I said before, Project Meteor is like a hand grabbing the dagger that the Red Maple Republic stabs into the chest of the Spinning Water Federation.
It is impossible for this hand to grasp only one place.
In fact, when Alyssa and the others were fighting in the Stantumo Galaxy, on this side of the Star Gate, the fleet of the Whirlpool Federation launched a simultaneous attack.
Including Alyssa, all the warships that came through the Star Gate were actually here for reinforcements.
And it came at just the right time.
The fleet of the Spinning Water Federation surrounded the Red Maple Republic fleet that controlled the star gate from all directions. In order to adjust the shooting position, they made great changes to the formation.
When Alyssa and the others came out of the Star Gate for reinforcements, the Red Maple Republic's fleet exposed its vulnerable rear to them.
As I said before, the mobilization of the large fleet cannot be hidden. As soon as the Red Maple Republic saw the form of the fleet mobilization, they knew how the Spinning Water Federation planned to fight. It stands to reason that they should focus on defending Stantumo to prevent the Star Gate from being taken back.
However, the fact is that Stan Tumo has defense, but not much, otherwise the attack will not be so smooth.
It gives the impression that the Red Maple Republic did not have enough expectations for the Star Gate to be captured, or they believed that the Star Gate could not be recaptured by the Spinning Water Federation, even if they occupied the planet Stantumo and obtained The six control centers cannot control the star gate.
However, the Red Maple Republic also made a major strategic misjudgment. They believed that the star gate that could not be captured was already in the hands of the Spinning Water Federation. As a result, not only was the contact with friendly forces on the other side of the star gate cut off, but they themselves were also captured through the star gate. The incoming Spinwater Federation fleet was caught off guard.
I don't know why they made this misjudgment, but intelligence matters are something that the agents and the military bosses above need to consider. The frontline only needs to fight.
After the cruiser formation descended for a certain distance, it circled from the side, trying to outflank the main fleet of the Red Maple Republic.
Of course, although it was caught off guard, the Red Maple Republic also attached great importance to the Star Gate. The fleet stationed here was very large, with a total number of more than five thousand, including four of the seven most elite fleets.
Although it is unlikely, if the Red Maple Republic's fleet can be annihilated here, it will be like the Battle of Kursk, allowing the Red Maple Republic to switch from strategic offense to strategic defense.
The real offensive and defensive shift is right in front of you.
Of course, the Swan was mixed in with the fleet, firing and maneuvering with the fleet.
Cruisers and mobile aircraft carriers can only act as a distraction and cannot destroy the main fleet, but having them close is also very annoying.
So the Red Maple Republic's main fleet sent a squadron to intercept the Swan's fleet.
This is a very standard tactic. Next, both sides should launch carrier-based aircraft while engaging in an artillery battle. This script will be memorized.
But just after entering the shelling distance, Li Chengqi, who had always been silent, suddenly said:
"I'm going to fly the lionfish."
He had never said this to Alyssa before. Every time he went out as he pleased.
