A large number of Valsalrian warships appeared at the warp point. As they had just completed the warp, their engines and shields were turned off. This was their most vulnerable moment!
"Open fire!" Following Aurelia's order, the Imperial Army's fleet fired their cannons at the same time, instantly completing a round of baptism on the Valsalrian fleet.
"F * ck! What's going on! "
"Sir, there's an ambush!"
"How did the Empire find out about our marching route?"
"Damn it! There must be a traitor! "
"Hurry up and reactivate the shields! Start the engines! "
"Report the damage!"
"Sir, in the attack just now, we've lost 150 frigates, 30 auxiliary cruisers, 84 heavy cruisers, and 10 drone carriers! In addition, nearly 200 warships were damaged and are now undergoing emergency repairs! "
"Damn it!" The commander of the Valsalrian fleet slammed his fist on the table. This was only the first round of attack, but his fleet had already lost nearly 20% of its warships, and another 20% were damaged. The overall combat power of the fleet had been reduced by almost half!
"Sir, the shields of all the ships have almost been restored, but the enemy's second wave of attack is coming!"
"Shrink the formation and let Enforcer Gallas block the outside. All ships are free to fight back!" After all, the commander of the Valsalrian fleet was also from the regular army. Although he was caught off guard, he was not at a loss in panic like the "players."
Boom, boom, boom, boom … The second round of attack from the Aurelia fleet came. Although the Valsalrian fleet had raised their shields at this time, their position was the focus of the Aurelia fleet's firepower. Under such a fierce attack, even with shields, they still suffered heavy losses, especially those warships that had just been damaged. Some even damaged their engines and could not hide behind the heavy cruisers, so they were destroyed on the spot!
"Report the damage!"
"Sir, we have more than 30 warships sunk, and more than 50 warships are damaged!"
"Damn it! We can't be so passive, we have to rush out! " The commander of the Valsalrian fleet knew very well that they were in a terrible position at this time. They were the focus of the enemy's firepower. The enemy's damage was not wasted at all, and they were taking almost all of it.
However, there was nothing they could do about it. Their fleet had accidentally broken into the enemy's ambush, and it was inevitable that they would be passively attacked. Although this was caused by their negligence, now was not the time to hold them accountable. So, the commander of the Valsalrian fleet just wanted to break out of the encirclement!
"Abandon the battleships with damaged engines. I'll give them three minutes to transfer to other spaceships. After three minutes, break out immediately!" said the Valsalrian commander.
"Yes! My Lord! "
…
While the Valsalrian Legion's fleet was preparing to break out of the encirclement, Aurelia was not idle either. After two rounds of attacks, almost one-third of the enemy's warships were lost, and the damage to their combat power was more than average. Aurelia was no longer content with long-range artillery fire.
"The first and second assault fleets, prepare to attack!"
"All Aiken-class battlecruisers, activate the target uplink. All flagships, activate the gathering point!"
Aurelia methodically issued orders, and the entire fleet was quickly ready for the decisive battle under her command.
"Break out!"
"Charge!"
The commanders of both sides issued combat orders almost at the same time, but for completely different purposes.
Under the orders of the commanders of both sides, the battleships on both sides moved. In order to avoid being accidentally hit by their own artillery fire, Aurelia's fleet surrounded the warp point in a hemispherical formation. So, if the Valsalrian fleet wanted to break out, their best route was to retreat with their backs facing Aurelia's fleet.
However, in this way, they would completely give up resistance and completely expose their backs to the enemy.
"Open fire!" Following Aurelia's orders, her fleet fired while chasing the enemy. The first to be destroyed were the abandoned battleships. These ships' engines were damaged in the first two waves of attacks and could no longer be evacuated, so they were abandoned after the crew was transferred to other ships.
"The first and second assault fleets, charge! Bite the enemy, don't let them escape! " Following Aurelia's orders, the brown bear-class heavy-duty cruisers of the two assault fleets all activated their Annihilator engines. Their speed suddenly increased to the extreme, and they instantly bit the enemy's tail.
Da da da … The brown bear-class automatic cannons also opened fire. With the support of the target uplink, the brown bear-class cannons, which were originally closer, also received a certain range increase.
"Damn it! These guys are catching up! "
"Leave a team of Galas enforcers behind! Everyone else, continue to evacuate. Once you reach a safe distance, immediately start warping! " Ordered the Valsalrian commander. Warping required the engines and shields to be turned off. If they warped under the enemy's fire, the unshielded warships would not be able to withstand the warp engines until the warp engines broke through the space barrier.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The remaining team of Galas enforcers began to fight back. Although they were carrying out a mission that would definitely kill them, these elite Valsalrian warriors were resolute in carrying out their mission.
"Damaged warships, retreat! Warships next to them, replace them!" As soon as they started fighting, several brown bear-class battleships were damaged. In terms of individual combat power, the brown bear-class battleships and the Galas enforcers could not be mentioned in the same breath. Although the brown bear-class automatic cannons were quite powerful in close combat, it also depended on the enemy. The Galas enforcers' plasma wave cannons were several times more powerful than the brown bear-class battleships.
In terms of defense, although the brown bear-class battleships' crudely made armor was very thick, the quality was very average. The Galas enforcers' biochemical armor not only had stronger defense than the brown bear-class battleships, but it also had the ability to self-repair. In terms of shields, the two sides were not even on the same level.
However, the powerful Galas enforcers also had a fatal flaw, and that was that they were expensive! Damn expensive! The high cost of construction made this kind of battleship slightly more popular among the "players" of the resistance army. In the hands of the Valsalrian army, these spaceships were very rare, so almost all of their fleets were frigates. They could not be like the imperial army, which built a large group of brown bear-class battleships as if they were free.
"Activate body reassembly!" After a few of the Calas Enforcers were heavily injured, they started to reassemble their bodies. The powerful bio-metal started to repair themselves. In just a few minutes, the heavy injuries were reduced to light injuries. Although this ability couldn't be used indefinitely and could only be used once before returning to the factory for major repairs, it instantly gave them an extra life on the battlefield. This meant that the Calas Enforcers were not expensive for no reason at all.
