Although in an extremely unfavorable situation, with the efforts of the Tau fleet commander, the surviving Hero-class cruisers quickly gathered into groups of three or five. Without being able to target the opponent with their frontal gravity catapults and electromagnetic rail turrets,
Concentrate your efforts on using the missile launch bays on the sides and a pair of ion turrets to visually shoot at the enemy.
However, this kind of firepower is too weak, and the hit rate is even more disastrous. However, the overly conservative power design and engine system of the Hero-class cruisers make it impossible for them to gain the upper hand in competing with the Ada ships for superior shooting positions. In fact, before
It was because they had been trying hard to turn their bows to fight the enemy, but the Ada fleet was divided into three parts, causing each ship to turn left and right, causing chaos in the entire fleet formation.
In this case, in order to allow the Hero class to last a little longer, the Defender class frigate chose to push the engine to the limit and rushed directly towards the Ada ship!
"For the Greater Good! For Ke'shan!"
After each shout, the channel fell into complete silence. The commander of the Wind Clan of Delmara's guard fleet stood on the command platform and gritted his teeth. The railing held by his hands had long since turned into twists.
Although there are no tears on his face at this moment, his heart is bleeding. They are all comrades and subordinates who have been with him for many years. After shouting again and again, they rush towards the enemy without hesitation, and then gorgeous flowers bloom in the void.
.
"Why! Why can't our weapons hit them?"
A voice with despair brought him back to reality. He looked below the podium and saw a young Feng clan member wearing technical clothes. In despair, he smashed his fist on the electronic panel that he had cherished so much in the past.
"Calm down, my boy."
The Tau fleet commander used calm words to calm his son's desperate mood.
"Father! I don't understand! What's going on!"
While the young Feng clan was crying, he kept swiping at the cracked screen with his hands, and light blue tears dripped on the screen.
"None of the parameters can be approved once! It seems that they are performing horizontal and vertical maneuvers of tens of thousands of meters every millisecond! This is impossible! Absolutely impossible! No starship can move in this mode!
What's more... not to mention that our fire control equipment and aiming system did not detect any interference! But we didn't hit the enemy with a single shot from the beginning to the end! It's not that I can't accept failure, but why let us lose so miserably?
!The defeat was so cowardly! The defeat made my heart bleed!"
"Do you know why?"
Hearing his father's voice, the newly grown boy turned his head sharply.
"Why?"
He stared down at his son's confused and tearful eyes, and replied calmly:
"Because we are too weak and too backward."
"Father, can..."
"There is no other reason but this one."
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked through the huge observation window at a hero-class cruiser exploding into pieces not far away.
"But it doesn't matter. Our race has never been afraid of accepting defeat. When our ancestors first encountered the cruel Jura Empire (the Human Empire), they encountered a more tragic defeat than now. The loss in the sea battle of Haigas
We lost almost all our military ships, and we even lost a great Ether in the Lizexi naval battle. However, our people fell down time and time again and got up again and again. We learned from the enemy, imitated their art of war, and developed newer weapons.
Battleships, we continue to narrow the gap between each other, and finally we can compete with Jura's invasion fleet without falling behind even when the Zerg invades!"
Many people, including technicians from the Tu clan, also turned to look at their commander and captain, inspired by his words.
"...There are many races in the galaxy that are older than us. Many of their technologies are far more advanced than ours. Their military power may also be much stronger than ours, but the Greater Good has given us eternal perseverance.
Motivation! If you fall behind, learn! Enrich and arm yourself with the knowledge and lessons of your opponents! You can be humiliated, but you must not despair! Because our ancestors were never discouraged even in more desperate moments! These enemies have things we cannot
Understanding the technology, so what? They have an ancient history, so what? No matter how bright the sunset is, it will eventually be replaced by the rising sun! As long as we continue to imitate, study, and learn, one day, today's shame, the Greater Good Society will
Get it back from them!"
After saying that, he seemed to have made up his mind.
"We not only need to slow down the opponent, we also need to understand the opponent as much as possible... Pass my orders, collect all combat data, and transmit it to the Huze, and at the same time, all intermediate and lower Earth clan members and Water clan members
They also all entered the rescue cabin and launched towards the Huze."
"Father! I won't leave!"
"This is an order."
Then he softened his tone.
"I issue this order not because you are my son, but because you are the hope and the future. Remember everything you saw today, the enemy's fighting method, the enemy's command style, and the consequences we have exposed
Weaknesses are firmly engraved in your mind, and then you survive, find ways to change them, even if you just play a little role, and then pass them on to your descendants. As long as the path to the higher good and the bloodline are not cut off, one day no matter how powerful you are,
We will definitely be able to catch up with our enemies!"
At a certain moment, his eyes softened a little, but he soon regained his soldier's perseverance.
"Let's go before it's too late."
Just as his child was about to say something, the guards on the side had already carried him out of the bridge. The other young members of the Earth and Water clans also packed up their things and began to evacuate.
"Open the data link, keep the ship damage record and transmit it to the Huze in time, and prepare to drop the data beacon."
The Tau commander then issued instructions to the remaining fleet, which was also divided into three parts, which meant that they lost the ability to unite to resist.
And what they get in return is a desperate fight.
"Maximum speed, let's get as close as possible! Closer! Closer! All ships, for Ke'shan! For the Greater Good!"
Soon, the Tau fleet, divided into three groups, rushed towards the Ada fleet in a nearly straight posture, and tried their best to shoot at the opponent.
"Yes, yes, they did not choose to die together like cowards, but chose to die like a warrior!"
In the Slayer's majestic bridge, full of arches and domes with the characteristics of ancient Ada, Carmustine, holding a dragon halberd and wearing half-body armor and robes, showed a satisfied smile.
Then he raised the command halberd in his hand and pointed straight ahead.
"All ships obey the order, release all firepower, and give them a destructive ending worthy of their status as warriors! And tell these miserable inferior races that the majesty of the powerful race that has ruled the galaxy for 60 million years is not something they can offend!"
The next moment, the Ada ship really started full fire mode, especially projecting a large number of crushing force field missiles. This is an extremely unique anti-shield system missile that contains two separate detonation cores.
, the first core absorbs all the energy within its range, or disintegrates the structure of the enemy's shield, followed by the second core, which releases a strong vibration force field when it hits the target, shattering the target into pieces.
In an instant, the shells of many Tau defender frigates fell apart, exposing the passages and cabins to the void. Many Tau people were also sucked into the cold space and turned into twisted corpses.
