Chapter 1129 High-speed evacuation operation (2)
From the void on a terrestrial planet, the ascent stage and the gravity turning stage are the most dangerous and the easiest to intercept.
The Swan happened to break through the atmosphere at a time when there were not many enemy ships in orbit. Although the Swan was discovered during the ascent stage, there were too few enemy ships in low-Earth orbit and there was no time to intercept.
Otherwise, it may be destroyed by artillery fire from outside the atmosphere during the ascent stage.
As long as you enter pulse flight, you will completely get rid of the shackles of gravity. As for where to fly?
It's enough if you can turn on pulse flight. There's really no way to adjust the specific direction. Let's wait and see after the pulse flight ends.
Watching the Swan enter pulse flight, Alyssa breathed a sigh of relief:
"That Bichi, the goddess of luck, finally favored us once."
"Ah? I know Lady Luck. She doesn't look like a Bichi, but Tymora is actually a pretty good person."
“…..”
Li Chengqi's words made it difficult for Alyssa to judge whether he was bragging or not.
At this moment, the pulsating Swan suddenly swayed, as if it suddenly stepped on the brakes while racing at full speed on the highway.
Fortunately, everyone on the bridge was tied to chairs with safety belts, otherwise they would all be fighting for the ground with their heads.
This abnormal situation is certainly not a good thing, and Alyssa felt a little thump in her heart.
Those who can block the pulse flight either have a planet directly in front of them, or they broke into the fleet's shielding force field and were forcibly terminated from the pulse flight.
Alyssa hopes it's the former, but Lady Luck is indeed a bitch, so I'll give you the latter.
From the bridge of the Swan that suddenly stopped, one could see that in the distance, ion beams streaked across the dark cosmic background, and from time to time, huge orange flashes could be seen appearing at both ends of the ion beams.
The Swan came to the battlefield again!
The Red Maple Republic's army in low-Earth orbit is small because the fleet of the Spinning Water Federation came to find a place, and a large number of troops went to participate in the grand event.
Alyssa listened to the movements in orbit through the passive communication equipment in the base, and indeed guessed this, so she broke through the atmosphere at this time.
But this doesn't mean that she is willing to go to the battlefield.
A star system is so big, it can be said that as long as the direction of the Swan's pulse flight is slightly deflected, it will never encounter a fleet crossfire.
So, the goddess of luck is a bitch!
"Attitude control! Let's turn!"
"No, there are a lot of jump signals coming from behind, and a fleet will appear behind us in ten seconds!"
It really happened that the house was leaking and it was raining continuously. The Swan was now blocked from the battlefield by the shielding force field. As long as it turned and ran away, it was actually unlikely to attract too much attention.
But the jump signal appeared again later, which was equivalent to the Swan being caught in the middle like the ham in the sandwich.
If the fleet that jumped over was from the Spinning Water Federation, that would be fine, but if it was the Red Maple Republic Army, that would be very bad.
Alyssa couldn't bet, and she didn't dare to bet on the 50-50 odds. The Swan had no chance of winning if it challenged the fleet.
Alyssa smacked her lips and immediately made a judgment:
"Binding 200, sail at full speed!"
"Understood, heading 200, sailing at full speed."
Carlos turned the rudder and put the gear on full sail.
The Swan's tail engine and four floating engines erupted with violent engine light, pushing the Swan to quickly leave the star field. But ten seconds was too short. Before he could get far, an alarm sounded on the bridge.
A fleet appeared behind the Swan with a twist. Both sides were at visual distance, which was the distance that the artillery could reach.
What's even more damning is that Alyssa saw the clear red maple leaf logo on the opponent's ship at a glance.
"Throw smoke screen!"
The Swan's recent consumption of artillery shells has not been large, but its smoke bomb consumption has been extremely large. It can be seen that it has been in a state of escape every day in recent times.
The only good news is that the opponent's fleet has just made a complete jump and has a very low understanding of the surrounding situation. Just the signal of the Swan appears on the radar. Before even having time to take a look with optical instruments, the smoke screen of the Swan has already been released. came out.
Being within the shielding force field, the Swan cannot perform pulse flight and can only move forward at full speed while continuously throwing smoke bombs.
Alyssa tightly grasped the armrest of the captain's seat and stared at the rear image displayed in the viewfinder.
Ten seconds, twenty seconds, thirty seconds, until one minute later, there were still no shells or ion beams chasing the Swan.
It's not that the Red Maple Republic's fleet didn't discover the Swan, but it's not necessary.
This fleet is obviously here to support friendly forces. This is the first priority. A light cruiser of unknown ownership will not pose a threat to the fleet even if it is left alone.
On the contrary, if they come to chase the Swan, it will inevitably cause a lag in the fleet's time to build a firepower formation, which is definitely bad news for teammates who continue to support.
So after discovering that the Swan was speeding away, the fleet chose to ignore it and began to reorganize its formation, intending to support friendly forces.
Of course, the Swan still cannot relax in the process of running away. After all, if the opponent chooses to ignore it, it will affect the speed of supporting friendly forces. If the Swan is in a range that can be destroyed with one shot, the opponent will never be stingy with shells. .
So the Swan continued to run wildly, even changing from ejecting smoke to activating the smoke generator, pulling out a long smoke ribbon to cover its butt.
The fleets in the void are bombarding each other. The entire battlefield is three-dimensional and three-dimensional, not the clearly visible type on the ground.
The Swan is like a headless fly, not even knowing which side is the friendly force, running around here.
Of course Alyssa knows that this is very dangerous, but there is no better way. The number of warships invested by both sides is too large, and the battlefield is too large. Even An Yun, the psyker navigator, can't find it anywhere. It's the boundary.
The radar could not determine which direction was the friendly force, so Alyssa immediately called up the star map of the galaxy.
The enemy is chasing from behind, so the Swan is likely to be behind the Red Maple Republic Army. This is an excellent position for a sneak attack, but the Swan's firepower sneak attack is looking for death.
So Alyssa used her fingers to modify the three-dimensional star map based on her guess, and drew a possible escape route.
Even if they can't leave the battlefield, they must at least get close to the battleships of the Spinning Water Federation.
A dead horse is a living horse doctor. Now he can either continue to run around, or try to follow the route Alyssa guessed.
So the Swan immediately turned around and continued flying while pulling the smoke.
But at this time, Anyun reported another bad news: "Dense signals appeared on the radar, looking like space fighters."
Did you get involved with Jiqunchuang?
"No, it's the space fighters of the two parties that are fighting! There is also a signal response from the cruiser. They are on our route!"
Alyssa slapped the armrest hard and roared in her heart:
'I told you that Lady Luck is indeed a bitch! ’
