"Damn bastard!" Alexis cursed as he looked at the screen that had been turned off.
"What's wrong, sir?" Jiang Fei asked.
"That bastard is basically sending us to our deaths!" Alexis was about to lose his mind.
"What do you mean?" Jiang Fei was confused.
"Look!" Alexis waved his hand and a star map appeared in front of Jiang Fei.
"Look here. This is the bastard's fleet. This is our fortress," Alexis explained as he gestured to Jiang Fei.
"This is the Trade Federation's fleet. They are currently surrounding that bastard. And now, he wants us to go there!" Alexis pointed at the star map.
"What? Isn't that like a lamb walking into a tiger's den? " Jiang Fei's eyes widened. The coordinates were right behind the Trade Federation's fleet. All they had to do was turn around and Alexis's fleet would be surrounded. That would be the end of the battle.
"That bastard is using us as cannon fodder just to relieve some of his stress!" Alexis's face was red with anger.
"Then we're not going," Jiang Fei said with a shrug. He was not going to go on this suicide mission.
"Sigh! That bastard's rank is one rank higher than mine! " Alexis sighed. Although the Valsalrian Army was a bandit organization, it was no different from an army. Even though he did not belong to the commander, the fact that the commander was higher than him meant that he could order him around on the battlefield.
If Alexis refused to carry out the order, the Valsalrian Army's law enforcement team would kill him and take away everything that belonged to him.
After taking a deep breath, Alexis finally decided to carry out the order. "Adjust course. Prepare to move to the target area!"
"Yes, sir! Sir! " The captain of the Crimson Stone immediately notified the rest of the fleet. Then, the fleet turned around and headed to the target area.
"Sir, are we really going to die just like that?" Jiang Fei asked reluctantly.
"Hmph! Of course we have to go, but it doesn't mean we're going to die! "Alexis sneered.
"What do you mean?" Jiang Fei had never experienced a space battle before, so he did not know how to deal with the situation.
"Order the fleet to prepare for a forced warp!"
"All ships, prepare to charge your shields!"
"Order the fleet to warp in five batches."
"Charge the main cannons immediately after the warp!"
Alexis began to issue orders in an orderly manner, but Jiang Fei could not understand what was going on.
"Sir, are you prepared to risk your life?" Jiang Fei asked.
"Let's see what happens," sighed Alexis.
Soon, all the ships in the fleet obeyed Alexis's order and charged their shields to maximum capacity.
"Begin the warp!" Alexis ordered.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh … The first batch of ships were all patrol boats. They activated their warp engines as soon as Alexis gave the order.
"Sigh! Inform the rear to double the pensions for these soldiers … "Alexis sighed. The first batch of patrol boats had almost no chance of survival.
"Yes, foster father …" Sarila nodded.
"Second batch, move out!" Alexis ordered.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh … The second batch of ships were all patrol boats.
"Sir, the probe has sent a report," the captain of the Redstone reported.
"Open it," said Alexis calmly.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh … A wormhole suddenly opened behind the Trade Federation's fleet. Immediately after, dozens of patrol boats appeared.
Boom … Boom … Boom … Boom … Boom … Boom … The main cannons of the patrol boats did not take long to charge. They opened fire after one second, but since the patrol boats were too weak, they barely caused any damage to the Trade Federation's ships.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! The Trade Federation's counterattack came one after another, but the outcome of the battle was completely different. After the Trade Federation's cannons hit the patrol ships, they immediately turned into fireworks in space, exploding into pieces.
Boom … A second wormhole opened, and dozens of patrol boats appeared.
…
"Hmph! Trying to slow me down with this kind of low-level bait? You've underestimated me! " The Trade Federation's commander sneered and ordered the fleet to move forward, leaving only a dozen frigates to intercept the patrol boats.
Boom … Boom … Boom … Boom … Boom … Boom … The second batch of patrol boats opened fire with all their might. Under their combined assault, one of the frigates was quickly wounded and forced to retreat. But under the relentless barrage of the frigates, the patrol boat could not hold on any longer.
Whoosh! The third wormhole opened. This time, the fleet that appeared was still mainly patrol boats, but there were a few frigates among them.
"Hmph! That's all you've got. " The Trade Federation's commander did not mind. They had left behind far more frigates than their opponents, and the patrol boats were nothing to be afraid of.
When the reinforcements arrived, Alexis's patrol boats were still suppressed. However, with the help of the frigates, the survivability of the patrol boats was greatly increased. Their lives were saved, and their damage output gradually increased. Several of the Trade Federation's frigates were damaged and forced to retreat.
Just then, the fourth batch of Alexis's fleet arrived. This time, not only did they not have more warships, but they also had no frigates. There were only a few patrol boats.
"Hmph! That's all you've got, huh? " The Trade Federation's commander was relieved. He believed that the dozen frigates he had left behind would be enough to deal with the remaining enemies. He ordered the entire fleet to attack.
"Sir, we've suffered heavy losses. Should we send reinforcements immediately?" The Redstone's captain asked for instructions. Although the fleet at the front was fighting bravely, they were still a fleet of patrol boats. These patrol boats did not even have any marines on board. With just a few small cannons, it was obvious how strong the enemy's warships were.
"Let's wait!" Alexis waved his hand. He did not care much about the loss of the patrol boats. To him, the powerful warriors under his command were his foundation. As for the crew members on the patrol boats, they could be recruited at any time.
"The enemy fleet has left the range of fire support," the Redstone's captain reported.
"Okay." Alexis did not bat an eyelid.
After another fifteen minutes, Alexis finally gave the order. "Prepare to warp."
Whoosh!
Alexis's warp engine was fully charged. A giant wormhole opened, and Alexis's main fleet appeared behind the Trade Federation's fleet.
