Chapter 433: Fortress Breakthrough
“Report! The Hood, flagship of the Enterprise Fleet, was sunk!”
“So fast?!”
Tactical Information Coordination Official Report The news really surprised Major General Muller. He originally thought that the fleets of these military-industrial complexes could hold on for a while, giving them two fleets a better opportunity to break in.
As a result, not long after, the fleet flagship was blown up by Atlas.
"The Combined Enterprise Fleet is really going to collapse now. Once the news spreads, I guess they won't be able to continue fighting with their little organization."
The voice of Barak, Commander of the Twenty-Third Fleet. rang in Muller's ears, and the latter nodded in agreement after hearing it.
“We definitely can’t continue the fight, which also means we don’t have much time left, so we have to hurry up and break in.”
“Are the commandos ready?”
"Yes, the doctor has also boarded the assault boat. After a while, the ship-borne HCP squadron will be dispatched together with the assault boat squadron when the predetermined distance is reached. At the same time, we will each release a group of commandos to break into the fortress simultaneously, so that Atlas cannot locate the Doctor and the others quickly."
"Understood, then act according to the plan."
While Mueller and Barak confirmed that they would continue to carry out the penetration mission in accordance with the combat plan, Amber also discovered anomalies.
To be precise, Guterres was the first to discover the two newly launched federal fleets. Instead of supporting the fleets of the military-industrial complex, they rushed directly towards the asteroid fortress where he was located. So he immediately informed Amber of the situation during the battle.
After receiving the news, Amber will now be supported by Murat and others who have killed the deep space mining flagship. They are shuttled and attacked among these disconnected corporate fleets. The single victory has come to Unprecedented 1 heavy cruiser, 3 light cruisers, 6 destroyers, and 28 carrier-based HCP
He originally planned to use up the remaining 20% of ammunition, and then look for opportunities to hide in the asteroid gravel belt. 'Auto-resupply points' to replenish ammunition and energy.
But after hearing the news from Guterres, he guessed the true intentions of the two federal naval fleets almost immediately.
"Lilith, they are here for you."
"Me? The Federation already knows that I escaped from the research institute?" Lilith asked curiously, she thought she His 'traces' in cyberspace were well hidden, and he never thought that the Federation would discover his traces.
"They should have 'guessed' rather than 'know'. I guess they have already suspected it, and the incident of the unmanned fleet is likely to directly confirm their suspicions."
< br>Amber calmed down and spoke. At the same time, he gave up the plan to supply supplies and directly planned a trajectory from outside the combat zone to prepare to support the A. Bawa Ku asteroid fortress.
"Mura, Louis, and Jacob, continue to attack the corporate fleet. If the other party wants to run away, there is no need to intercept them by force. Just try to kill their effective forces.
There may be a problem over there in the fortress. I will go ahead to support you, and you will return to the fortress when the battle here is about to end!”
“Yes, Boss!”×3
In the reply of the three, Amber will A heavy anti-ship penetrating rod that had just been loaded by the electromagnetic reconnection gun penetrated the top deck of a light cruiser from top to bottom and penetrated the embedded battle bridge.
While letting the number of sinking of his light cruisers reach 4, the body also switched to the 'cruise mode' and directed all the propulsion arrays towards the rear, and then in the dazzling blue light that burst out, like a A meteor with a long tail rushed towards the asteroid fortress.
Although the fixed anti-load device and suspended driving seat have absorbed most of the G force, the pilot's comfort has always been a low priority given the original design intention of the Titan to pursue extreme performance.
In other words, it is just to ensure that the pilot will not faint during high-speed propulsion. It will still be uncomfortable if it should be uncomfortable.
But Amber can't care about driving comfort at the moment. , relying on his physical fitness far beyond ordinary people, he directly pushed the throttle valve to the bottom, and the instantaneous acceleration of the body also rushed directly to the red line.
After all, Lilith is too important to himself and Atlas, and he cannot let this strong artificial intelligence go wrong in the slightest.
What's more, after spending such a long time with Lilith, although he is still a little defensive because of his past life experience, he has already regarded her as a real living being and a real partner in various meanings. partner on.
So after realizing that the real target of the federal fleet was probably Lilith, he suddenly became anxious.
After Lilith learned about the current situation and noticed Amber's condition, the first thing she felt was not worry or fear, but a burst of joy in her heart. No, it should be a burst of ecstasy.
This is the first time this strong artificial intelligence discovered that Amber actually cares about him so much. "Master, there is no need to be so anxious. A large number of defense forces have been deployed in the fortress in advance, and the internal structure is relatively complex due to George and his team's construction. Even if the Federation breaks into the fortress, it will not be that easy to find the server array."
Lilith's voice sounded in Amber's mind, and her tone sounded a little shy and coy.
"No, you are a shy teapot! Since the Federation personally came to attack the fortress, they must have made complete preparations. I doubt they even have any secret weapons against you. This is no joke!"
< br>"You know, Master, don't worry, there is someone's secret weapon in the fortress~"
"No, what are you doing secretly behind my back again?"
——
While Amber was rushing towards the A. Bawa Ku Fortress, Van Fleet looked at the federal fleet that was forcibly attacking against the fortress’ defensive firepower and getting closer and closer. He sighed softly and then turned and walked towards the door of the core command room.
His actions also immediately attracted the attention of Guterres, who looked at his back and asked: "What are you doing now?"
Van Fleet stopped, After a while, he continued walking forward, leaving only one sentence floating in Guterres's ears.
“I can’t help much with space battles and fleet battles, but fortress defense operations are somewhat related to land battles, so I can help to some extent. No matter what your position or identity is, Art Lars also saved my life and that of my family. I can’t just watch at this time.”
Van Fleet’s figure quickly disappeared outside the gate, and Guterres was silent for a while. , and then refocused on the battle near the fortress, and began to continue commanding the defensive operations of a small number of fortress garrison fleets.
“Attention the garrison fleet, the purpose of the opposing fleet is to get as close as possible to the fortress to cover the incoming assault troops. No matter what they want to do, they will give priority to the assault boats they release! As long as the opponent’s tactical objectives cannot be achieved , then the initiative can be returned to our hands!”
On the other side, Van Fleet quickly arrived at a deployment bay near the periphery through the elevator inside the fortress. This is a peripheral area and has ready external access, so it is also one of the priority targets for assault troops.
At this moment, the fortress defense forces who received the order have begun to build temporary positions here, preparing to block the assault troops here.
Since the defense forces inside the fortress were temporarily transferred, there was no formal establishment. The person in charge was also Osana who came with these Roma defense forces.
The cat lady, who had recently been nicknamed the 'Valkyrie', quickly noticed Van Fleet, who was wearing a combat exoskeleton and carrying an electromagnetic rifle. At this moment, he was guiding a platoon. The Roma built their positions more rationally.
After seeing this former federal army lieutenant general, Osana was also a little surprised.
After all, no one thought that Mr. Van Fleet would actually join the defensive battle before. Amber arranged for him and Guterres to assist in the battle, more as a courtesy.
But after seeing the general come to the front line of defense with a rifle, Osana still had some changes in her view of him. At the same time, she was happy to have this experienced general. The Marine Commander came to assist.
She quickly went up to him, and then took the initiative to say hello to the lieutenant general.
"Mr. Van Fleet? In fact, you don't want to come to the front line. After all, it won't be very safe here for a while?"
"Thank you, madam, but in this case, I I can't stay in a safe place behind and wait for the results. Although I know that what Mr. Amber said before was just polite, I really want to do something to help you."
Van Fleet said with rare embarrassment. This kind of tone and emotion was extremely rare for him.
"Since you have said so, then I would rather obey your orders respectfully, and we really need the assistance of an experienced commander at this time."
Osana looked up and down. He checked Van Fleet's equipment, and then a snickering expression appeared on his face under the tactical visor.
"Speaking of commanding operations, I think there is another set of armor in the warehouse that is more suitable for you to use, but this set of power armor has not been tested in actual combat~"
"Wear, I have seen and trusted your Atlas technology.”
Van Fleet said without hesitation, and at the same time, he thought of the many Atlas weapons and equipment he had seen before, especially the heavy vehicle-mounted electromagnetic gun that pierced his heart.
"That's good~"
