Olank monitored the Z-type carrier-based aircraft and made a series of evasive movements in the universe. While dodging the black energy groups shot out from the enemy warships, he tried to get rid of the damn aircraft that had been chasing behind him.
"enemy plane".
The shape of the opponent is a bit like a ball, but there is a sharp wing-like spike on each side of the ball, just like a sharp rhombus running through the shape of a football.
Its movements are quite flexible and agile, and its speed is also very fast, which is no worse than the Z-type carrier-based aircraft driven by Oranke.
Olanke didn't know whether the other party was driven directly by the controller or was simply a living being. He just knew that the other party had rich driving experience and could be said to be a very difficult veteran.
The moment the two parties came into contact, Oulanke could tell that the other party was very experienced. He piloted his carrier-based aircraft and kept trying to get rid of the other party's pursuit, but the other party kept biting behind him.
Gently applying pressure to the joystick at hand, the Z-type carrier-based aircraft once again began to maneuver at high speed. It quickly turned a corner and inserted into the gap between the two enemy warships.
The small black energy groups on both sides passed him one after another, densely packed like a big net.
The carrier-based aircraft he was driving was like a flexible fish, moving left and right in this large net.
"Boom!" Just in the distance separated by dozens of battleships, a nuclear bomb exploded, blowing an Adjudicator battleship into two pieces. The huge explosion bloomed in the universe, which was extremely spectacular.
The terrifying explosion illuminated the darkness, and the light rising like the sun completely exposed the outline of the Watcher's battleship in the black curtain of the universe.
At the same time, the surrounding small explosions never stopped, and a series of explosions followed. It was a scene where the F-type carrier-based aircraft did not have time to avoid the enemy's strafing, and was eventually hit and killed.
Compared with fighting in the atmosphere, fighting in the universe is more cruel. There is no so-called parachuting or other escape methods here, because the explosion caused by the engine and fuel detonating together can basically directly eliminate the pilot of the spacecraft.
.
Just when Oulanke was distracted to see another carrier-based aircraft in the distance that was barely able to avoid the incoming black energy mass, the enemy's small spacecraft that had been chasing him behind him also sprayed out two masses.
Black energy.
Olanke subconsciously shook his joystick to avoid the attack coming from behind, and then once again performed a high overload maneuver to the right.
The tail nozzle sprayed out even hotter air masses, and the Z-type carrier-based aircraft easily turned a curve that was close to a right angle and sped away in the other direction.
The next moment, the Watcher's carrier-based aircraft chasing behind Olank also made an extreme turn to avoid the obstacles in front, and continued to pursue Olank in the direction in which he was heading.
"The ghost is still lingering..." Oranke muttered as he climbed up in his fighter jet.
"Your energy reserve is almost exhausted! In order to ensure that you can return smoothly, please return as soon as possible!" The computer's mechanical sound started to remind when the energy reserve was about to be exhausted.
"I know! Turn off the alarm!" Olanke frowned and descended again, hiding his fighter jet in the ocean of the enemy fleet.
For Oranke, he must fight quickly now, because he doesn't have much fuel left to play hide-and-seek games with the opponent.
So he adjusted his flying attitude and finally took the risk to turn on the afterburner to make his fighter fly faster.
Doing this can achieve a short-term speed increase, but it will consume more fuel and shorten the flight time. It is also a last resort.
It can be seen how much pressure the Watcher's ship behind him put on Olank, forcing him to make such an unreasonable choice.
Within the field of view of the Watcher's carrier-based aircraft that had been chasing Orank behind him, the light from the tail nozzle of the difficult Airansil Empire carrier-based aircraft that had been shaking in front suddenly became brighter. At the same time,
At the same time, the enemy plane that had been escaping also flew faster.
The Guardian's carrier-based aircraft also accelerated its pursuit, and tried its best to fire deadly energy shells at the moment it aimed at Oranke's aircraft.
Two black energy balls flew towards the Z-type carrier-based aircraft driven by Oulanke again, one after the other. Oulanke just happened to control his fighter to fly higher, so he just avoided the incoming attack.
.
"Force me?" Olank began to pull his control stick violently, and then the attitude engine installed on his fighter jet began to spray continuously to one side. As these engines continued to work, Olank's fighter jet flew in the universe.
He turned a somersault and went extremely fast.
Before the Watcher's small spaceship that was chasing Olank could somersault upwards, Olank had a window to attack.
He pulled the trigger on the joystick, causing a series of electromagnetic gun shells to fire out of the muzzle. The 50 mm caliber electromagnetic gun shells were specially developed for Z-type carrier-based aircraft. The destructive power is quite astonishing.
This series of electromagnetic gun shells directly hit the carrier-based aircraft that was chasing Orank's Watcher, and caused huge trauma to it.
The flight attitude of the Guardian's carrier-based aircraft, which was connected to one hole after another, began to fly out of control, and it crookedly collided with a Judgment warship in the distance, and a huge explosion occurred on the surface of the warship.
explode.
Without enough time to appreciate his victory, Oulanke turned off the engine's afterburner. At this time, he saw that his fuel gauge was close to the most dangerous threshold.
If he exceeds this threshold, he will be unable to return home smoothly and can only drift in the universe, waiting for friendly warships to receive his distress signal and come to rescue him.
I have been playing hide and seek with the opponent just to wait for this moment. When the opponent is numb and careless, I suddenly start the engine with afterburner, and then use my super excitement to defeat the opponent in one go!
Oulanke breathed a sigh of relief and drove his fighter jet back to the returning carrier-based aircraft formation.
This time, he saw many carrier-based aircraft being shot down and destroyed, and those parts were floating in the universe, telling everyone the cruelty of this war at all times.
Of the four wingmen that took off with Olank, none remained, and all were destroyed by the enemy.
On the way back, another salvo from the 1st Fleet of the Airanthil Empire passed by these carrier-based aircraft. These radiant energies rushed straight towards the distant target, and were finally captured by a Adjudicator.
The battleship blocked the way.
Then, the Arbitrator battleship exploded and scattered into a ball of fireworks, once again lighting up the surrounding space.
At this moment, the distance between the two fleets is 3.1 million kilometers, which is much closer than the last time.
After Oranke left the battlefield, he flew among the formations and saw that many formation positions were empty. Most of those places were for unmanned wingmen, but there were also positions for Z fighters flown by pilots.
When I went there, the fighter plane formation was huge and dense. When I came back, the fighter plane formation was still huge, but it became sparse, leaving a lot of vacancies.
After taking off his gloves, Olanke realized that his palms were full of sweat. He adjusted his breathing and stabilized his emotions.
Just now, in order to cover his bombing, an F-type unmanned carrier aircraft blocked the black energy group coming from the side for him.
He saw with his own eyes that the drone exploded in the universe, and the cockpit evaporated directly in the flames.
Also just now, his other unmanned wingman blocked the Watcher carrier-based aircraft that was chasing him. The two sides collided together and eventually turned into a huge fireball.
The other two wingmen were shot down by the intercepted enemy energy group when the attack was launched. None of the drones he brought out this time returned. Compared with the previous exploratory attack, this time the carrier-based aircraft force
The losses can be described as horrific.
This was probably the most brutal "air battle" that Oranke experienced along the way when he joined the Air Force and then became a carrier-based aircraft pilot for the Space Force.
There is no longer the pleasure of crushing the enemy, and there is no performance advantage. Both sides fight with real swords and guns based on their skills. The slightest mistake may cost them their lives on the spot.
"Bamir didn't come back! Olanke!" The voice of a pilot from the same regiment rang through the earphones.
"Someone saw Bamir's carrier-based aircraft collided with an Arbitrator warship and exploded." Another voice said with deep self-blame: "If the formation was not disrupted by the enemy's anti-aircraft guns, I should be able to cover it.
his."
"Be careful behind you, don't be implicated by the enemy's long-range artillery fire." Olanke reminded, and then turned off his voice call.
He didn't want to talk now, because at this moment, his mind was filled with images of the enemy plane he had just been entangled with.
That weird-looking spaceship was quite powerful, fast and flexible, and was no less powerful than the Z-type carrier-based aircraft he drove.
The opponent also reacted quickly to the two extreme maneuvers just now. Judging from experience, the opponent is also a first-class veteran.
If the enemy's carrier-based aircraft controllers are all of this level, then future battles will still be very difficult.
"Oh my God! Look over there! Damn it!" When the carrier-based aircraft formation was about to return to the space where its own fleet was located, a pilot's shocked voice suddenly reached Oulanke's ears.
This exclamation pulled him out of his memories and thoughts. He looked through the cockpit glass in front, and was shocked by the sight in front of him.
The defense line where the 1st Fleet was originally supposed to be stationed was filled with horrific pieces of spacecraft. There were only half of the destroyed ship hull everywhere, as well as steel plates twisted by the explosion.
Wires and other messy things are scattered in the universe, just like in a highly polluted river, with water plants floating everywhere, like wandering ghosts, rippling slightly with the flowing water.
Oranke even saw a complete cruiser's bridge floating in the universe, with all the portholes broken, and some spacesuits scattered around the bridge.
"The 1st Fleet has retreated..." Olanke muttered subconsciously. He was already disturbed by the tragic situation in front of him.
"That's Higgs 5 over there. The fleet has made way for the gap. It seems that we can only rely on ground forces to hold back the enemy and allow the fleet to regroup." Another pilot looked at a distant planet through the porthole and said.
said.
"Damn it! How did this battle happen?" Olanke cursed, feeling that his mood became even worse.
In the bridge of the super battleship Seris, the flagship of the 1st Fleet of the Airansil Empire, Genesis stared at the star map without saying a word.
According to the previous plan, most of the logistics supply facilities near Higgs 5, including satellite maintenance and logistics supply bases, have been moved away.
Without the support of these logistical supply facilities, the combat effectiveness of the Airanhill Empire fleet has indeed declined.
Because of the constant retreat, some warships had no time to retreat to the supply area, so losses began to rise linearly.
In the past hour, the 1st Fleet has sunk 11 Invincible-class battleships, and at the same time, more than 90 violent Tier-2 cruisers have been destroyed!
This is a loss that the Elanthir Empire has never suffered. Before this, the Elantyr Empire had never lost so many large-scale war weapons in a single battle.
Finally, Genesis spoke: "The enemy is advancing towards Higgs 5! It seems that they really want to attack the planet directly instead of chasing our fleet."
He was still thinking before, thinking about what to do if the enemy fleet did not attack Higgs 5, but pursued his 1st fleet and continued to attack.
In fact, in order to cope with the occurrence of this kind of thing, the 5th and 7th fleets of the Eilanhir Empire have always maintained a high degree of alert, ready to enter the battlefield at any time to push back the invading Guardian fleet.
The battle has continued until now, and the main reason why these two reserve fleets have not counterattacked is because the enemy has been following the script and has not exceeded the advance expectations of the senior officials of the Elanthir Empire.
"Continue to maintain this retreat speed! The enemy's losses are also huge, and they have not completely entered the trap yet!" He paused and continued.
The so-called trap is the 2nd Fleet that has been waiting on the flanks. Bakalov will then join the battle and launch a counterattack from another direction.
After attacking the enemy fleet, the 2nd Fleet will retreat in the opposite direction to give way to the front of Higgs 5.
At that time, it will depend on how long the ground troops on Higgs 5 can hold on!
"We have sacrificed so much, I hope the enemy will not see any flaws." Lawns clenched his fists and muttered in a voice that only he could hear.
