Chapter 2044: Chapter 2040: The Battle of all-out
Translator: 549690339
After everything was discussed, Tesla began to organize a fleet to fight head-on according to Bella’s instructions. This was because he had the firepower support of the interstellar base and the orbital defense facilities, although Tesla’s fleet was not as good as the resistance’s “Player fleet”in terms of quality, with the convenience of defense, he was not at a disadvantage.
The gap between the battleships could not be made up for. Although Jiang Fei’s fleet was developing rapidly, it was built on the foundation of the Merchant Alliance’s technology, even the Vasari battleship that was upgraded by “Player”technology was much stronger than Jiang Fei’s battleship, let alone the imperial army’s “Player fleet”that was purely “Player”system.
However, in terms of tactics, Tesla’s command skills were not something that the “Players”of the resistance could compare to. To the “Players”, they were not officially military school graduates. They were just playing a game, as long as the fleet was gathered together, they could just randomly bombard the enemy. If they were much stronger than the enemy, they would win. If they were not as strong as the enemy or were about the same strength, they would have to wait and see, after all, the “Players”were not afraid of death.
Therefore, when the “Players”fleet attacked, Tesla immediately ordered his warships to hide behind the orbital defense system and find an opportunity to attack the enemy, although a heavy warship like brown bear could not bring the enemy into its range, a spaceship like the javelin-class missile frigate could still display a lot of strength.
The javelin-class guided missile frigate could be said to be the main firepower output point of the original merchant alliance fleet. Before Jiang Fei brought the destroyer’s advance engine to the brown bear-class heavy cruiser, the javelin-class guided missile frigate was the main firepower output point of the Merchant Alliance fleet, brown Bear was just playing the role of a sandbag. Its output still depended on the javelin.
Now, because of the orbital defense facilities as a cover, even the interstellar base could provide a certain amount of shield support. Therefore, the javelin-class guided missile frigate could be said to be like adding wings to a tiger, with the support of the aiken-class Battlecruiser’s target uplink, the javelin-class missile frigates’range and hit rate were greatly increased, causing their cluster missiles to be almost flawless, this caused huge losses to the resistance warships.
“Release the drones!”Tesla ordered. In the previous battles, because his fleet was carrying out reaping and supporting missions, there was no need for them to go all out. But this time, they couldn’t.., he had to reveal all of his assets.
“Yes! Lord Commander!”Following Tesla’s order, the gray horse-class drone carriers at the rear of the fleet still released the drone squadrons. These light carriers were the same as the other battleships of the merchant alliance, they were all modified from merchant ships.
These gray horse-class light drone carriers were initially long-distance cargo ships that transported energy blocks. Their only characteristic was that they carried a lot of cargo. As for speed and defensive firepower, they could not be compared to battleships, they were still at the level of an armed merchant ship.
However, it was precisely because they carried a lot of cargo that they were developed into light drone carriers. Every grey horse-class drone carrier had a drone production line and a hangar platform that could accommodate two drone squadrons.
Under Tesla’s orders, these grey horse-class drone carriers that were at the end of the battle line began to release their drone squadrons. A large number of drone bombers and fighter jets were released like a swarm of bees, then, they charged straight at the resistance fleet in the distance.
“Attack!”
“Fire the main cannons!”
On this side, the commander of the resistance was also ordering the fleet to launch a frenzied attack. Although almost all of their artillery fire hit the orbital defense system, in order to take back the interstellar base, these orbital defense systems had to be dismantled, therefore, there was no difference whether they attacked early or late.
“Boss, the Carras Enforcers and Lavasa fighters at the front are almost unable to hold on any longer!”One of the underlings shouted. Although the performance of the resistance “Players”warships was much better than Tesla’s side.., but under the concentrated fire of the javelin-class missile frigate, they also took a lot of damage.
“Let the Su Wen overseers at the back support!”The commander of the Resistance ordered.
“Yes!”The “Player”underlings at the bottom immediately took action.
These Su Wen overseers were vassali camp’s auxiliary cruisers. They could spray a protective nano-armor cloud onto the surface of an ally’s ship, providing the ally with a temporary armor shell, moreover, its strength was even higher than the warship’s own armor.
After receiving the support of the Su Wen Overseer, the Galas Enforcers and Lavasa fighters at the front once again became lively. However, at this time, the Imperial Army’s drone fleet also arrived.
A large number of unmanned bombers began to fire missiles at the rebel army’s fleet, instantly doubling the imperial army’s firepower. In this way, even with supervisor Su Wen’s support on the side.., the Galas Enforcers and Lavasa fighters in the front couldn’t hold on any longer.
“Boom Boom Boom…”following the explosions of fireworks, the battle entered a white-hot state.
“Move the Jones watchmen to the front! Damn it, these drones are too annoying!”The commander of the resistance shouted, these Jones watchmen were on the same level as Jiang Fei’s guard airships. They were super light frigates. Their defense was very weak and their firepower was not strong. However, they were flexible enough and their muzzle tracking speed was very high, when it came to fighting against the drones, they had a much greater advantage than the large airships.
“Yes, Boss!”Very soon, a large number of Jones Sentinels were deployed to the front line, as expected, once these airships arrived, the Imperial Army’s drone fleet could no longer be as arrogant as before. Under the Concentrated Phaser missiles of Jones Sentinels, a large number of drones were destroyed.
However, the drones themselves were a kind of consumable. As soon as this side was destroyed, the production line on the gray horse-class drone carrier at the rear was activated. It would not be long before a new batch of drones arrived on the battlefield.
“Boom Boom Boom Boom…”the battle had entered a stalemate phase. One by one, the rebel warships that were at the front were destroyed. At the same time, a large number of orbital defense facilities on the Imperial Army’s side were also destroyed, although the damage to the warships was minimal.., however, these orbital defense facilities were not unlimited. After these bunkers were destroyed, Tesla’s fleet would have to fend off the enemy’s artillery fire.
“It’s about time! Everyone, get ready to set off!”At this moment, Bella said to the cultivators.
“Okay!”On one hand, the cultivators were in a cooperative state with Jiang Fei. On the other hand, they were also pressured by Xie Tianxin. Therefore, they nodded and led their disciples to the teleportation room.
“Sister Nina, Please!”Bella nodded at Nina. Although they were using the teleportation device of the transport ship, they still needed Nina’s help to teleport so many experts over such a long distance.
