There are three warships in the air attack, all of which are armed merchant ships.
The fortresses on the ground are also very strong. Seven fortresses are fighting back. The light of the protective shield is extremely eye-catching in the strong wind.
"This is very strange," Qu Jianlei muttered in a low voice, "Who am I trying to get into trouble?"
At this moment, another voice of ecstasy came, "Military, it's a military warship... Which fleet are you from?"
"No, this is not the military." Someone identified the battleship and said in a sober human voice, "Unknown forces!"
"It doesn't matter if it's unknown or not, the opponent's firepower is too fierce. Please help, please help!"
"Yes, if it is an enemy, our remaining three fortresses will also have to be activated."
This is too much. Qu Jianlei doesn't think that the opponent has three fortresses that have not been activated.
So he coughed lightly and finished what he hadn't said just now, "Be serious, it's a robbery...I'm here to rob!"
"Robbery? That's easy to talk about." The opponent was ecstatic when he heard this, "Kill the battleship on the other side. Just say what you want."
Qu Jianlei was really confused: What is robbery?
However, before he could react, Xiao Hu eagerly asked, "Boss, do you want to do it?"
"If we can drive away the intruders, doesn't it mean we can rob them as a matter of course?"
This child... indeed still maintains a simple view of good and evil. "But there are not many energy blocks left," Qu Jianlei hesitated.
This time he said he was here to rob, but his original intention was to be an armed policeman: I'm here to rob, you pay for it!
He is determined to make a desperate move, but wouldn't it be better if he could extort a little without paying any price?
However, now was not a good time to hesitate, so he only hesitated for a moment before making his decision.
"Stop attacking, stop attacking! I order you both to stop attacking."
"I will hit anyone who doesn't stop!"
It can be seen that although his reaction is not slow, he really lacks the experience of mediation to actually say such a thing.
However, the fact that both sides are fighting together is indeed quite domineering.
The defending side seemed willing to accept mediation, and the intensity of the artillery fire gradually decreased.
Anyway, the protective cover of the fortress is still there, so we can guarantee our own defense even if we don't attack.
However, the three armed merchant ships continued to move flexibly as if they had not heard anything, and the intensity of their artillery fire did not decrease at all.
The next moment, the side of a merchant ship opened and three small attack ships came out, bombarding the defensive fortress indiscriminately.
Qu Jianlei gritted his teeth and said, "Seeking death, Plan No. 2, attack!"
Xiaohu has long been ready to attack, but unfortunately, as an artificial intelligence, it cannot launch an attack before receiving orders.
The imitation warship moved erratically, and two 20-centimetre-thick white lights shot toward the largest armed merchant ship.
However, at the moment it hit the merchant ship, the outer shell of the starship exploded with two balls of green light, blocking the white beam of light.
"Directed blast reactive armor?" Qu Jianlei frowned slightly, "There is such a thing, does it need to use a main gun?"
Generally speaking, when warships hit ordinary merchant ships, they can basically hit them with accuracy, and armed merchant ships are no exception.
However, some armed merchant ships have been modified not only for firepower, but also for strong defense, as is the case with this merchant ship.
Xiao Hu said timidly, "The main gun wastes energy. Look, its defense has been reduced."
This money addict! Qu Jianlei rolled his eyelids in anger, "Is this the time to save? Continue to attack."
Almost at the same moment he gave the order, a fortress that was set on fire exploded.
"They're all my energy blocks!" Qu Jianlei shouted angrily, his eyes turning red, "Xiaohu, Plan No. 3!"
"Copy that," Xiaohu fired a series of tracer bullets, targeting the largest armed merchant ship.
No matter how picky it is, the first target it chooses to attack is always the largest armed merchant ship.
But then, another series of tracer bullets were fired, targeting another armed merchant ship.
Seeing the high imitation warships continue to attack, the armed merchant ship released two more small attack ships and headed straight for Qu Jianlei.
This small attack ship is fragile, but extremely flexible and has powerful attack power.
However, high-imitation warships are also extremely nimble, constantly rolling and moving in order to prevent the opponent from locking onto them.
The next moment, the three triple cannons were spitting out tongues of fire from time to time. This was because the firepower was cut off, otherwise there should have been six triple cannons.
Immediately afterwards, two strings of tracer bullets fired by the high imitation warship actually exploded.
The armed merchant ship on the opposite side was very smart. Even though it noticed that the tracer bullets were being fired, it avoided them early.
Seeing tracer bullets exploding in the surrounding area, someone snorted, "You know it's not a good approach."
"It's broken," someone shouted loudly, "The strength of the shield is decreasing!"
"What the hell, what the hell...is there such a thing as electromagnetic interference bombs?" There are many types of electromagnetic interference bombs, which can even distort the magnetic field and cause electromagnetic positioning failure.
But this kind of artillery shell that can interfere with the defensive array and cause the protection strength to decrease is really unheard of.
However, to say that it is not an electromagnetic interference bomb, I really don’t know what kind of artillery shell it is.
In fact, this is an electromagnetic interference bomb specially manufactured by Qu Jianlei based on the characteristics of Xiaohu.
Normal battleship protective covers all have the ability to prevent electromagnetic interference. The difference is only in strength.
Even ordinary starships must consider defense against various cosmic rays during interstellar navigation.
Under normal circumstances, it would be very difficult for Xiao Hu to invade the interior of the starship through the air, and it would not be short in time.
Invading a warship is even more difficult, especially in battle, where not only is the defense strong, but the opponent is constantly maneuvering at high speeds.
But with the combination of this special interference shell, it will be much easier. This kind of shell can interfere with the opponent's defense to a considerable extent. Once a loophole appears, Xiaohu can seize the opportunity to invade.
Of course, in order to achieve this kind of invasion, some prerequisites are needed, so I won’t go into details one by one.
"Fortunately, it's just a merchant ship," Xiao Hu had a clear understanding of this. "If it were a real warship, it would be much more difficult."
This is not a guess, it is driving a real warship, and its defense against electromagnetic fields cannot be compared to that of an armed merchant ship.
"Do you want to control the movement of merchant ships?"
"No!" Qu Jianlei shook his head, "You will be exposed, so act according to the original plan!"
"Okay," Xiaohu muttered softly, "It's a pity, these are all money."
It was a little reluctant to part with its own energy block, but it was not slow in taking action. The next moment, two more white lights were emitted.
The white light hit the largest armed merchant ship, but no more green light erupted this time.
Two large holes were drilled into the armed merchant ship, and some fire explosions occurred inside. The entire merchant ship turned and fell to the ground.
When the other two merchant ships saw this, they were all shocked.
However, before they could make any reaction, two more white beams shot out and hit another merchant ship.
Just as the merchant ship was plunging to the ground, the imitation warship fired a string of tracer bullets again.
The only merchant ship left was scared out of its wits, and the combatants on board already knew what this thing was.
The merchant ship fled desperately, but unfortunately, the free battle fortress began to focus fire on it.
Immediately afterwards, four more small attack ships rose from the ground and began to fight against the invaders' attack ships.
Not long after, the only remaining merchant ship was heavily injured and staggered to the ground.
In this state, let alone being unable to escape, even if you could escape, you wouldn't be able to survive in space, so you might as well surrender honestly.
The high imitation warship ignored the merchant ship and faced the other two merchant ships that had landed.
The ship shoots wildly.
Although Xiaohu assured that no one would find traces of its invasion, Qu Jianlei was still worried and thought it would be best to destroy the corpses to eliminate traces.
This kind of behavior is quite cruel in the eyes of the members of the Titan Group.
The invading merchant ships had already signaled their surrender, but the other party actually turned a blind eye.
The people from Titan had no choice but to contact the other party, "Dear robbers, the invaders have surrendered."
Dear...robber? Qu Jianlei always thinks this wording is a bit funny.
He asked in a deep voice, "Are you sure you don't need to kill all the intruders?"
"This...it's really not necessary," the Titan people guessed that the other party must be here for the first time, so they explained.
Although the asteroid belt is quite chaotic, there is no trend of killing everyone.
The main reason is that this place has been monopolized by many large forces.
It doesn't matter if there is a conflict below, it doesn't matter if someone is killed or injured. If you want to compete for benefits, you must pay the corresponding price.
But it is best not to kill everyone, because this will cause conflicts among the upper echelons and will also make other forces miserable.
In short, this behavior is very unpleasant.
Moreover, those captives can also be used in exchange for benefits. If that doesn't work, they can also be made to do coolies.
Imperial mining has achieved a high degree of automation, but there are always some correspondingly dangerous types of work, and there are also many dangerous links in smelting.
Qu Jianlei was also a little emotional when he heard this. He didn't expect that this chaotic place would be more humane than normal society.
During the conversation, one of the invader's attack ships was shot down.
When other attack ships saw the "high imitation warship", they stopped attacking and immediately requested surrender.
These attack ships are not only fragile, but also have short legs. Even if they escape the atmosphere, they will not have enough energy blocks to return home.
The Titans ordered the attack ships to land at the designated place, and then sent armored troops to pick up the prisoners and battleships.
Not to mention the serious competition for interests here, there are all kinds of equipment and combatants.
It took about ten minutes to receive the surrender. As for cleaning the battlefield and rescuing the wounded, that was the next step.
Qu Jianlei had no intention of waiting to speak out.
"Now it's time to talk about the robbery...Also, these two merchant ships should be considered our spoils of war, right?"
He was not a fussy person, and he was too lazy to waste words, so he did not include the four small attack ships.
