Chapter 2199: Chapter 2193, the strategy of the Klein star
Translator: 549690339
After making the decision, Jiang Fei led the fleet to the Vasari Legion’s star field.
At this time, the Dominic Galaxy had clearly become a strategic buffer. Whether it was the imperial army or the resistance, neither side had deployed a large number of troops here. However, they had deployed a large number of orbital defense facilities, every planet on the shipping route was a fortress that blocked the way.
Therefore, when Griffin led the Army to invade the universe empire, they were blocked in the Dominic Galaxy for so long until Jiang Fei’s reinforcements arrived, only then did they manage to break through the defensive positions that the Imperial Army had set up in the Dominic Galaxy.
At that moment, Jiang Fei faced the same problem as Griffin. If he wanted to invade the territory of Vasari’s army, he had to pass through the Dominic Galaxy. Along the way, he had to pass through six planets, the gravity wells of these planets were filled with orbital defense facilities. Regardless of whether it was the missile defense platform of Vassari’s army or the drone hangar, they were able to effectively block the intruders’footsteps.
“General, we are about to enter the gravity wells on planet Klein. According to the information from the unmanned scout ship, a large number of defense facilities have been set up here,”the intelligence officer reported.
“Understood!”Jiang Fei then handed the command of the fleet to Aurelia. Although he was powerful, he had his own specialties. It was better to leave the command of the fleet to Aurelia.
“Order! All Gray Horse class drone aircraft carriers, upon reaching the planet’s gravity well, immediately release all drones at full capacity. Type — fighter aircraft!”
“Order! All Brown bear-class heavy cruisers, upon reaching the planet’s gravity well, charge forward immediately and block the first wave of enemy fire!”
“Order! Starchild-class robot cruisers, prepare for maintenance and provide cover for the brown bear fleet!”
“Order! Guard air defense vessels, prepare for full air defense and intercept the enemy fighters and phase missiles.”
“Order! Ogre-class torpedo cruisers to prepare for battle to destroy the enemy’s orbital defense facilities!”
..
Aurelia’s orders were given in an orderly manner. Her fleet was still in the middle of warping, and before they reached the gravity well on planet Klein, all the captains had already understood their mission.
“Whoosh!”As the spatial barrier was opened, a warship rushed out from the phase space, and the Imperial Army’s fleet arrived at the gravity well on planet Klein in succession.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Almost at the instant the Imperial Army’s fleet arrived at the gravity well on planet Klein, the missile defense platforms began to attack. These missile platforms were like wounded porcupines, they crazily sprayed out their stingers, and one phase missile after another pounced on the Imperial Army’s fleet.
“Buzz, Buzz, Buzz…”the hangar platforms also opened their hatch doors, and unmanned combat aircraft rushed out from the platforms. Then, they formed a formation and pounced on the Imperial Army’s fleet.
Long before the Empire’s fleet began warping towards Klein star, their movements had already been detected by the powerful interstellar radar. Therefore, the orbital defense facilities here had long been prepared for battle, this was also one of the advantages of the defensive side.
“Activate the Annihilator Type 2 assault engine!”The Imperial Army’s Brown Bear fleet was the first to react. Although their shields had not been activated in time because they had just completed their warping, with their solid armor.., these brown bears with thick skin and flesh were still at the front line.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh…”the gray horse-class drone aircraft carrier at the rear of the fleet also opened its hatch. A large number of unmanned fighter jets flew out. They quickly formed up into formations in space and pounced on the vassali bombers that were coming at them.
As it was a defensive battle, the Vassali Legion’s hangar platform was basically filled with bombers. This was because only bombers equipped with plasma weapons could deal effective damage to warships, uavs that emphasized mobility and only equipped with high-frequency laser weapons could not deal effective damage to warships.
Although the bombers’weapons could deal effective damage to warships, and it was not difficult to destroy warships under concentrated fire, when faced with small, agile uavs.., these relatively heavy bombers were not up to par.
Although the uavs were only equipped with high-frequency laser weapons, which were not even suitable for the warships to scratch, they could easily break through the fragile armor of the uavs and easily shoot them down.
So when the Imperial Army’s fighter planes met the Vassali Army’s bomber formation, the massacre began. Almost all the uavs were destroyed in the void before they could even get close to the Imperial Army’s fleet.
Although the remaining bombers were lucky enough to break through the Imperial Army’s drone defense, they had just arrived in front of the fleet of Aurelia. Before they could launch an attack, they were met with the guard airships that welcomed them.
These ultralight frigates were also not equipped with heavy weapons. They did not have much combat ability when facing warships, but with the super high firing speed of the anti-aircraft cannons and the ability to track targets.., these defensive air defense ships were the natural enemies of the drones.
“Bang Bang Bang…”one after another, the warplanes of the Vassali Legion were destroyed. Almost none of the bombers were able to complete their attacks. Occasionally, a few of the drones fired their own plasma weapons, however, their firepower was not very strong. Although they could deal damage to the warships, that was under the condition of a group attack. If only one or a few bombers hit a warship.., then, even the lightest frigate could not be sunk, not to mention the starships that were constantly being repaired.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom… at this moment, the first wave of missiles from the Vassali Legion arrived. Although the unmanned bombers did not pose much of a threat to the Imperial Army’s fleet, these missiles were not to be trifled with.
Unlike the standard missiles used by the Imperial Army, the Vassali Legion was equipped with phaser missiles from “Player technology.”These missiles would enter the phaser space after they were launched, they would fly close to the target in a warp-like manner, and then complete their attack when they entered the main space.
Therefore, these missiles could practically avoid the fate of being intercepted. Although the cost of manufacturing them had been greatly increased, it eliminated the greatest drawback of a weapon like a missile, which was that it was easy to be intercepted halfway, just like the javelin-class missile frigates of the imperial army, they could only be launched into the battlefield after the enemy’s anti-aircraft ships were destroyed in large numbers. Otherwise, their missiles would hardly be able to hit the target, most of them would be intercepted in flight.
Because they would not be intercepted, the Vassali Legion’s first wave of missile rain almost hit the target. They blasted the brown bear fleet that was charging at the front line into the sky, and the silver shining armor shell was blasted into pieces, fortunately, the brown bears had thick skin. Although they were blasted into such a state, they did not damage the main structure inside. With the strong maintenance ability of the starship, these brown bears not only survived the first wave of attacks, they were quickly repaired.
