The Strongest Interstellar Commander - Chapter 168

[Chapter 168]

The sudden retreat order made the entire army of the Sierra Empire a little confused!

They are almost reaching the battlefield, why did they suddenly retreat?

After all, the only people who can know the gap between the third-level civilization and the fourth-level civilization are the commanders above a certain level, and other soldiers are not clear about these things.

Although everyone was full of doubts, as an imperial soldier, he immediately executed the order, and more than 3 million battleships began to fly in an arc in an orderly manner to correct their course!

“The army of the Sierra Empire has begun to turn, and it should be trying to withdraw the empire from the way of the stars!”

Elena said to Liang Xingchen and Lin Fan who were communicating.

“Don’t worry, it will take at least an hour and a half for them to arrive at the entrance of the Way of the Stars over there. We have enough time to annihilate the fleet here before intercepting!”

“Yes, don’t worry about the retreating ordinary warships, our first task is to encircle and wipe out the enemy here as soon as possible!”

Liang Xingchen and Lin Fan said to Elena one after another.

In the eyes of the two of them, they don’t think that the army of the Sierra Empire can escape at all. The most important thing at present is to annihilate the more than 100,000 Tier 4 civilized warships in front of them!

The next moment, the Royal Guards fleet also began to act, and they also received orders from Basel to retreat at full speed!

The battleships began to accelerate one after another, charging towards the direction of the Queen’s Guards!

“Elena, after the Council and the others attacked, don’t confront them! Control the fleet to cooperate with their assault to gradually give way, and then attack them from both sides!”

After watching the tactical video, Liang Xingchen said to Elena.

“clear!”

After instructing Elena, Liang Xingchen immediately led the Second Army to launch a pursuit battle.

Lin Fan, on the other hand, led the First Corps to accelerate directly and then began to fly in an arc, preparing to go around from the side, and then make a lateral thrust from the side of the Royal Guards fleet.

After all, one legion is enough for the pursuit. The shooting surface is so large that even one legion cannot be fully deployed. If Lin Fan’s second legion goes past, it will not play any role.

2 minutes later, the Royal Guards Fleet braved the powerful firepower to charge in front of the Queen’s Guards Fleet and crashed directly into it.

And Elena, who had been reminded by Liang Xingchen, immediately ordered the fleet to cooperate with the opponent’s advance, and gradually spread out from left to right. This operation gave the visual sense as if the Royal Guard fleet had crashed into Io. In the federal fleet array, a central breakthrough was successfully carried out!

However, reality is always slapped in the face. The Queen’s Guard fleet scattered left and right turned their bows one after another, and a fierce cross-fire came against the Sierra battleship that was advancing in the center.

Coupled with the pursuit of Liang Xingchen from behind, countless battleships of the Royal Guard Fleet were destroyed.

When the wreckage of more than 30,000 battleships was left behind and finally escaped from the flanks of the Queen’s Guard fleet, all the Sierras on the battleship breathed a sigh of relief.

For them, as long as they stand out, they can use the speed advantage to completely leave the opponent behind and retreat safely.

After all, the speed of one’s own warships can reach 30,000 kilometers per second, isn’t it!

But before they were relieved for a long time, hundreds of thousands of battleships suddenly appeared on the side, forming an assault array, and crashed into it horizontally from the center of the array!

This is Lin Fan’s first legion. He didn’t chase with Liang Xingchen just now, and took the entire legion to fly in an arc, going around half a circle. When the opponent broke through the Queen’s Guard Legion, he came precisely. made a lateral assault, slicing through its array.

“Elena, your warships can’t keep up with the speed, so don’t participate in the following pursuit. When the army of the Sierra Empire is 5 million kilometers away from the entrance of the Star Road, they will make a short-range jump and set up an interception in front of the Star Road entrance. ! Lin Fan and I will come over as soon as we deal with these battleships!”

“clear!”

Elena understood that the Queen’s Guards could not intervene in this kind of pursuit at a speed of tens of thousands of kilometers per second!

After all, the speed of his legion is only 8,000 kilometers per second!

After this battle is over, should I suggest that the Queen and the Federation of Humanity talk about the purchase of sub-light engines? Elena couldn’t help but think so.

Liang Xingchen and Lin Fan cooperated very well. One maintained a distance of 1 million kilometers behind him, launched a pursuit battle, and constantly eroded the other’s warships!

The other is to directly use the speed advantage of 50,000 kilometers per second to continuously attack back and forth and cut its formation!

In the distance, Basel, who was retreating, was also looking at the images of the Royal Guard fleet being tortured and slaughtered on the battlefield. He realized that he was stupid.

Since everyone knows that the other party is a fourth-level civilization, how can it be that the speed is not as fast as the Royal Guards fleet?

To put it bluntly, the battleships used by the Royal Guard Fleet of the Sierra Empire are nothing more than the performance castrated version of the fourth-level civilization Babawi Empire. Isn’t it normal to be chased by others?

Basel has even seen the end, he understands that the Royal Guard fleet can no longer go back, and it will not be long before they will be wiped out there!

The key now is, will there be a chance to withdraw my more than 3 million warships?

“Order the Royal Guards fleet to stop retreating. Continuing to retreat is just to be slaughtered unilaterally. It’s better to stop and fight the opponent to the death! It can also buy time for the retreat of the main fleet!”

“Yes, General Basel!”

When the order was passed to the Royal Guard Fleet, everyone understood that they had been abandoned.

Fortunately, all the members of the Guards Fleet were carefully selected and absolutely die-hard. Otherwise, if they were replaced by ordinary imperial soldiers, it is estimated that after hearing such an order, they would simply quit!

However, the Royal Guards Fleet is different. These are all diehards. Even if they know that they have been abandoned, they will faithfully fulfill their orders.

The entire fleet no longer fled at this moment, but started to counterattack!

Since Lin Fan and Liang Xingchen had been attacking from the side and chasing from the back just now, there was no loss.

But when the Royal Guards Fleet no longer ran away, but tried desperately, the situation changed, and the First and Second Corps also began to suffer casualties!

Although not much, after all, the numerical advantage is there, and both firepower and shield performance are stronger than the Royal Guards fleet.

Although this wave of counterattacks was very brave and desperate, the losses it could bring to the two major legions were still limited. In the end, after the first and second legions paid hundreds of warships, the remaining 70,000 was also used. All the warships were wiped out!

At this moment, the army of the Sierra Empire is less than 10 million kilometers away from the entrance of the Star Gate!
