When the drones appeared in the players' field of vision, the players immediately drove their small boats and swarmed them. Behind those small boats, more than a dozen small boats appeared. Obviously, the other players had also heard the news and rushed over.
"Give them a hard time!" Jiang Fei gave the order.
"Yes, sir! Sir! " The soldier in charge of operating the drones immediately nodded. Then, the drones circled around and began the slaughter.
Boom boom boom boom … In just one round of scattering, four players' small boats were blown up into space junk.
"Damn it! The firepower of these drones is too strong! "The players were instantly stunned. They then abandoned the formation and began to flee.
Although the drones were very small, they were bombers that specialized in fighting against large warships. Although each drone only had one automatic cannon, the depleted uranium bombs of the bombers had extremely strong penetrative power. The small boats of the players that did not even have shields could not withstand it at all.
Boom boom boom … In the blink of an eye, another four small boats were destroyed. This was because Jiang Fei and the others had held back. Otherwise, the dozen or so small boats would not have been able to withstand the attacks of two squadrons of drones.
"Sir, the enemy has increased their forces again! But they are all small boats! " The radar operator reported. At this time, the radar showed that the enemy's small boats were close to a hundred. Obviously, the players had received the news and had begun to enter the battlefield one after another.
"These two squadrons of drones have used up all their ammunition. There is no need to return to resupply. Send another four squadrons! And bombers! "Jiang Fei ordered.
"Yes, sir!" The captains of the 32 Gray Horse Class light aircraft carriers received the order at the same time. At the same time, the aircraft carriers that had just sent out the drone squadrons began to produce new bombers again to make up for the previous losses.
As the 5th Hybrid Fleet was a transport and supply fleet, other than the combat ships, there were more than a dozen large supply ships. These ships were filled with supplies so that the light aircraft carriers could use the drones as they pleased. Because of the sufficient supplies, the production line of the drones on the aircraft carriers could run at full speed. As long as the enemy could not find the location of their aircraft carriers, Jiang Fei and the others could use the drones to fight a war of attrition.
Boom, boom, boom … The battle at the frontline was in full swing. Dozens of players' boats were destroyed. Of course, some drones were also shot and destroyed. These drones provided the players with a certain amount of points and some additional rewards, which made the players even more happy.
Since the players were only projections of their consciousness when they entered this universe, their actual bodies would not die. They were also piloting boats that were given out for free in the game, so dying in battle was equivalent to having zero losses. In this way, in order to farm for points and rewards, they naturally charged forward fearlessly.
Soon, the first batch of drones ran out of ammunition, and the players surrounded them and devoured them.
The Trade Federation's drones were divided into two types. Fighter jets used light laser weapons, which were light and fast. They were very effective against the relatively heavy and brittle bombers. However, their firepower was too weak against battleships.
On the contrary, because the bombers were equipped with automatic cannons and used physical depleted uranium bombs, they were extremely lethal. However, because they carried physical ammunition, their flying speed and agility were not as good as the fighter jets. Moreover, due to the limited ammunition, they needed to return to the aircraft carriers frequently for resupply.
This time, Jiang Fei wanted to give the players a little something to enjoy and keep them interested in the game. He also did not want to expose the location of the fleet, so he gave up the opportunity to let the bombers return for resupply. Once they ran out of ammunition, they would be left to fend for themselves.
A few minutes later, the second batch of bombers arrived on the battlefield. Then, the killing began again. This time, Jiang Fei sent out four squadrons of bombers. This time, Jiang Fei let the drone operators do their best. So, they caused more serious losses to the "players".
Seeing that nearly a hundred boats had been shot down, and Jiang Fei's drone fleet was still chasing after them, Jiang Fei felt that it was about time.
"Alright, stop the attack. Some of the drones will return. Leave one squadron for them!" Jiang Fei ordered.
"Okay! Sir! " At this time, the captains of the Fifth Fleet were quite convinced by Jiang Fei. Back then, Jiang Fei said that not only was there no danger, but there was also military merit to be earned. Sure enough, when they arrived at the Alpha System, the enemy was simply too weak. Their warships were not even as powerful as the armed merchant ships.
"It seems that there are not many players playing this game," Jiang Fei muttered to himself.
"Are there very few players in the Gamma Dimension, or is this game not very famous?" Jiang Fei was a little confused. After all, when they first started playing Dawn Break, the Novice Village was full of people, but now there were only a little more than a hundred players in the Gamma Dimension.
"Forget it, let's not worry about it for now!" Jiang Fei shook his head. He could not solve this mystery for the time being, unless he kidnapped another group of "players" and interrogated them. However, Jiang Fei did not want to take any more risks. The last time he kidnapped players, the so-called "game company" might treat it as an exception and ignore it. However, if he did it again, the "game company" that received a lot of complaints was likely to take a series of actions to interfere. At that time, it might be very disadvantageous to Jiang Fei.
"Leave some recon ships to observe the situation. We will retreat to the vicinity of Hor." Jiang Fei then gave the order because he saw the rest of the "players" retreating back to the "safe zone" after destroying the squadron of drones he left behind.
"Sir, who are these people?"
"Yeah, if they have such powerful technology, why would they send these small ships out to die?"
…
On the way back, some of the captains asked.
"I don't know. Maybe they are cannon fodder similar to drones." Jiang Fei made up a story. He could not tell the truth to these people, and even if Jiang Fei told them, they might not believe him.
Half an hour later, the 5th Fleet arrived at Hor. At this time, Hor was in a busy state. The 9th Fleet was there to help evacuate the people on the planet.
"Just evacuate the people and the luxuries. Leave the strategic resources behind. I want to continue fighting the invaders in the Donimitz System!" Jiang Fei directly issued an order through the interstellar channel.
"Who the hell are you?"
"This is private property! Do you think you can just leave it here? "
"Motherf * cker, do you know who I am? Are you tired of living? "
"You are just a group of cannon fodder, what are you so arrogant about? Do you want to die? "
…
Jiang Fei's order attracted a lot of curses, but Jiang Fei only sneered. The Trade Federation did have a rule that "private property is sacred and inviolable", but do not forget that Sir System had a gun in his hand!
