Chapter 2558: Clan of the Rising Sun
Although in an extremely unfavorable situation, with the efforts of the Tau fleet commander, the surviving hero-class cruisers quickly gathered into a group of three or five ships. When the catapult and electromagnetic rail turret are aimed at each other, they focus on using the missile launch bay on the side and a pair of ion turrets to visually shoot at the enemy.
However, this kind of firepower is too weak, and the hit rate is extremely low. However, the overly conservative power design and engine system of the Hero-class cruisers make it impossible for them to compete with the Ada ships for superior shooting positions. Gaining the upper hand was actually because they had been trying hard to turn their bows to fight the enemy, but the Ada fleet was divided into three parts, causing each ship to turn left and right, causing chaos in the entire fleet formation.
In this case, in order to allow the Hero class to last a little longer, the Defender class frigate chose to push the engine to the limit and rushed directly towards the Ada ship!
“For the Greater Good! For Keshan!”
After every shout, the channel fell into complete silence. The commander of the Wind Clan of Delmara's guard fleet stood on the command platform and gritted his teeth. The railing held by his hands had long since turned into twists.
Although there are no tears on his face at this moment, his heart is bleeding. They are all comrades and subordinates who have been with him for many years. After shouting again and again, they will rush towards the enemy without hesitation, and then a fire will bloom in the void. Beautiful flowers.
"Why! Why can't our weapons hit them!"
A voice with despair brought him back to reality. He looked under the command podium, where a young Feng clan member , wearing technical clothes, desperately smashed his fist on the electronic panel that he cherished so much in the past.
"Calm down, my child."
The Tau fleet commander used calm words to soothe his son's desperate mood.
"Father! I don't understand! What's going on!"
While crying, the young Feng clan kept swiping at the cracked screen with his hands. The light blue Tears fell on the screen.
“None of the parameters can be approved once! It seems that they are performing horizontal and vertical maneuvers of tens of thousands of meters every millisecond! This is impossible! Absolutely impossible! No starship can do this Movement in this mode! What's more... not to mention that our fire control equipment and aiming system did not detect any interference! But we didn't hit the enemy with a single shot from the beginning to the end, but why should we? Let us lose so miserably! We lose so much that my heart bleeds!”
Hearing his father's voice, the newly grown boy turned his head sharply.
“Why?”
He looked down at his son’s confused and tearful eyes, and replied calmly:
“Because we are too weak and too backward. ”
“Father, yes.”
"There is no other reason, only this reason."
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked through the huge observation window at a hero-class cruiser exploded into pieces not far away.
“But it doesn’t matter. Our race has never been afraid of accepting defeat. When our ancestors first encountered the cruel Jura Empire (the Human Empire), they encountered a more tragic defeat than now. , almost all the military ships were lost in the Haijias naval battle, and we lost a great Ether in the Lizexi naval battle. However, our people fell down time and time again and got up again and again. We learned from the enemy and imitated their actions. The art of war, the development of newer warships, and the continuous narrowing of the gap between each other, finally we can compete with Jura's invasion fleet without falling behind even when the Zerg invades!"
Many people, including those from the Earth clan! The technicians also turned to look at their commander and captain, inspired by his words.
“.There are many races in the Milky Way that are older than us. Many of their technologies are far more advanced than ours. Their military power may also be much stronger than ours. However, the Greater Good Provides We have the eternal motivation to learn! Enrich and arm ourselves with the knowledge and lessons of our opponents! We can be ashamed, but we must not despair! Because our ancestors never gave up even in the more desperate moments! The enemy has technology that we cannot understand, so what? They have an ancient history, so what? The bright sunset will eventually be replaced by the rising sun! As long as we continue to imitate, study, and learn, one day, today's shame will be gone. The Supreme Being will get it back from them!" After saying that, he seemed to have made up his mind.
“We not only need to slow down the opponent, we also need to understand the opponent as much as possible. Pass my orders, collect all combat data, and transmit it to the Huze, and at the same time, all intermediate and lower Tu clan members All members of the Heshui clan also entered the rescue cabin and launched towards the Huze."
"Father! I won't leave!"
Then. He softened his tone.
"I issue this order not because you are my son, but because of you. You are the hope and the future. Remember everything you saw today, the enemy's fighting method, the enemy's command style, and what we have exposed Weaknesses are firmly engraved in our brains, and then we survive, find ways to change them, even if we just play a little role, and then pass them on to our descendants. As long as the path to the higher good and the bloodline are not cut off, one day, no matter how hard it is, A powerful enemy, we will definitely catch up!"
At a moment, his eyes softened, but he soon regained his soldier's determination.
“Let’s go, before it’s too late.”
Just as his child was about to say something, the guards on the side had already carried him out of the bridge, and the rest of the young Tu clan Members of the Heshui clan also packed up their things and began to evacuate.
“Open the data link, keep the ship damage record and transmit it to the Huze in time, and prepare to drop the data beacon.”
The Tau commander then issued instructions to the remaining fleet, which was also divided into three parts, which meant that they lost the ability to unite to resist.
The result is a desperate fight.
"Maximum speed, let us get as close as possible! Close! Closer! All ships, for Ke'shan! For the Greater Good!"
Soon, the titanium split into three strands The clan fleet rushed towards the Ada fleet in an almost straight posture, and tried its best to shoot at the opponent.
“Yes, yes, they did not choose to die together like cowards, but chose to die like a warrior!”
In the Slayer's magnificent bridge, filled with arches and domes that were characteristic of ancient Ada, Carmustine, holding a dragon halberd and wearing half-body armor and robes, showed a satisfied smile.
Then he raised the command halberd in his hand and pointed straight ahead.
“All ships obey the order, release all firepower, and give them a destructive ending worthy of their status as warriors! And tell these miserable inferior races that the majesty of a powerful race that has ruled the Milky Way for 60 million years is not something they can achieve. "Offensive!"
The next moment, the Ada ship really started firing on all cylinders, especially projecting a large number of crushing force field missiles, which are an extremely unique anti-shield system missile, including It has two separate detonation cores. When it explodes, the first core absorbs all the energy within its range or disintegrates the structure of the enemy's shield. Following that, the second core releases a strong vibration when it hits the target. The force field shatters the target into pieces.
In an instant, the shells of many Tau defender frigates fell apart, exposing their passages and cabins to the void. Many Tau people were also sucked into the cold space and turned into twisted corpses.
