Chapter 1103 Stargate Attack and Defense (8)
Li Chengqi disliked using missiles.
This is because in his opinion, the missile is just waiting for it to lock and then press the button. It is indeed awesome from a military perspective, but it is much less entertaining.
He never thought he was in a war, he just came to have fun.
Therefore, Li Chengqi rarely uses missiles, and the style of air knights such as machine gun bombardment is more interesting.
But it also depends on the situation.
A mobile aircraft carrier can launch seven or eight squadrons of space fighters in a short period of time, but this does not mean that it only has an inventory of seven or eight squadrons.
Some of the previous batch of space fighters stayed to tangle with Li Chengqi, while the other part rushed to the Swan.
The remaining ones, Li Chengqi, had already killed them all, but another group of aircraft came from the direction of the mobile aircraft carrier, no less than the previous number.
Although on earth, pilots are more expensive than airplanes, here, pilots are completely expendable. After all, in terms of productivity, the power of a country on earth is not the same thing as the power of a country here.
The mobile aircraft carrier saw that the first batch of pilots' attack was not effective, so they simply sent out the second batch. This is also a standard operation for aircraft carrier operations. Only a saturation attack can pose a threat to the warship.
Although Li Chengqi had a lot of fun, he also knew the limits of the Swan's defense and the level of the cargo ships next to it. It would be very dangerous if a group of space fighters were sent over as before.
So Li Chengqi had to activate the missile pod. The two largest cylinders on the backpack flew out in the direction of the aircraft group under the push of propellers. After reaching the designated position, a large number of small missiles hidden in the cylinders were launched.
The space fighter that had never seen a missile thought it was just a rocket and could be easily avoided. What happened next was predictable.
The explosions are connected from left to right, ensuring that the warhead of each missile is fully utilized and there is no oversaturation attack.
The orange flash of the explosion was actually the flash of the space fighter's liquefied magic power being detonated.
Li Chengqi reached out and tapped on the keyboard a few times, and the reel retracted the flying wire cannon.
The fleet was hit by the missile pod. They had no heat decoys and did not even realize that this thing could turn. They suffered heavy losses in an instant. Li Chengqi also used line cannons to kill the few survivors.
A fleet of aircraft was completely wiped out before they even got close. If every kill was to draw a star on the body of the Lionfish, there would probably be no room to paint it on the Lionfish's body by now.
Immediately, the quick-connect groove on the lionfish's back slid, and the backpack detached from the body.
Li Chengqi shook the joystick, turned around and blew up the backpack.
This thing no longer has any ammunition and energy, and there is no way to replenish it. Direct destruction is the best option.
Immediately afterwards, the lionfish turned around and flew towards the group of aircraft that was entangled with the Swan.
Although he was having a great time, he did remember to protect the Swan.

In the bridge of the Swan, Alyssa looked at another mobile aircraft carrier in the distance that was sunk by everyone's concentrated fire, and the cheers in the communication channel never stopped.
But Alyssa knew that these results would not have a decisive impact on the battle situation.
At this moment, a cargo ship on the left side of the Swan suddenly bulged and exploded, turning into countless cosmic fragments. The Swan's shield was hit by fragments and emitted a blue aura.
"It's shelling from the other direction!"
Sure enough, it’s still here!
The Red Maple Republic troops attacking the Star Gate came from three directions. The mobile aircraft carrier was blocked by the Swan and the cargo ships, but the fleets from the other two directions could not stop it. The fleet of the Spinning Water Federation was now being beaten from both sides, and the fleet that initially launched the attack was very close at this time, and discovered that the Swan was beating up a group of mobile aircraft carriers.
Under the intensive bombardment, the cargo ships around the Swan exploded and disintegrated. The public channel of the Attack Year, which was filled with cheers just now, was now filled with screams and harsh noises.
No more fighting!
Alyssa knew clearly that whether she ran away through the star gate or escaped from the battlefield from below, she had to make a decision. Staying here would be a dead end.
At this time, a new voice appeared on the public channel:
"As soldiers of the Spinning Water Federation, we cannot ask you to do more. Now it is time to retreat. Everyone, you should go to the Star Gate immediately, here It’s up to us.”
The fleet overhead was sinking slowly, trying to act as a shield for the Swan and the surrounding civilian ships.
Alyssa did a quick calculation and found that indeed, walking through the star gate was the fastest and safest way.
"Turn left sixty degrees, let's go to the star gate."
"Understood, sixty degrees left rotation!"
It's okay for civilian ships to bully mobile aircraft carriers without turrets, but don't compete with battleships. There's no way to fight.
Other cargo ships around also turned around. In the process, some ships were still destroyed, either civilian ships or warships of the Spinning Water Federation.
"Hall has been recycled."
"Lionfish recovered."
"Activate the smoke screen generator!"
The smoke screen put out by the Swan can help the surrounding civilian ships avoid becoming the target of the Red Maple Republic fleet. Then the Swan's engine light suddenly lit up and it moved forward at full speed.
The maneuverability of the cargo ship is far worse than that of the Swan. It was clear that the Swan had just taken the lead and turned around to run towards the star gate. The Swan quickly left the cargo ships behind.
At this time, there were far fewer ships on the Stargate side, but there were a large number of shipwrecks, containers and even the bodies of crew members floating around.
The Swan's shield energy was fully activated, and it chose the shortest route to the star gate, clearing a path like an icebreaker.
The cargo ships in the rear followed suit one after another, but this also made the Swan very conspicuous. One after another, the main gun beams passed by the Swan, which looked very scary.
"The Xuanshui Federation will never treat its friends badly, and it will never forget its heroes. Everyone, if there is a chance, we will meet again in the future."
Along with these words in the public channel, a battleship crossed the side of the Swan, which not only helped the Swan block a large number of bombardments, but also acted as a shield for the cargo ship behind it.
Battleships are the battleships with the strongest protective firepower after starships, but no matter how powerful a battleship is, it is impossible to withstand concentrated fire.
The Swan was relatively fast and successfully approached the stargate by relying on the battleship's shield. This also allowed the Swan's bridge to be clearly seen. The side of the battleship was hit by continuous shelling, and the huge shield showed signs of rupture. There was already an entity. The shells smashed through the shields and left explosive flashes on the side of the battleship.
It won't last long.
"Shoot the torpedoes out!"
The only thing the Swan could do was to rotate the ship as it approached the stargate, turn around and shoot the torpedoes in the direction of the enemy fleet. As for how useful it was.
I can only say that this is my intention.
Immediately, the Swan maintained a reverse position, submerged into the star gate little by little, and finally disappeared into the star field together with other cargo ships.
