1590 You just need to run faster than the people around you
"Intercept that monster! He has only one person! Hurry! Hurry! Fire! Damn it!" Inside a modified shuttle, the pilot shouted desperately.
Following his shout, Zaku, who looked as terrifying as a monster, slashed open the shuttle that just passed him with a sword.
The explosion illuminated the huge Zaku robot painted in red in the starry sky. On the other side of the Zaku robot, there was a shuttle that was so frightened that it changed its flight direction and galloped away into the distance.
.
At this moment, the thruster behind the Zaku became even brighter, and the Zaku chased after it.
Although only fewer thrusters are installed, Zaku can aim almost all thrusters in one direction, so Zaku can have stronger acceleration and turning capabilities, and is more flexible and faster than a small shuttle.
Faster.
With such high speed, No. 4 Zaku easily caught up with the Zaku that wanted to escape, and easily shot it down with a machine gun from behind.
A rebel commander in charge of commanding the "carrier-based aircraft" looked at the loss of his troops in mourning, and said sadly: "More than 100 shuttles have been sent out to fight, and now we only have 40 shuttles left.
It’s impossible to fight... It’s a bit unreliable to expect them to intercept this monster!”
Compared with the carrier-based aircraft commanders of the Airanhir Empire, the rebel commanders can be said to have no experience at all. They have no experience in commanding and coordinating these aircraft, so it is impossible to dispatch these carrier-based aircraft to form combat effectiveness.
.
They completely rely on their large numbers and use dense visual effects to intimidate their opponents. Once the two sides fight, Zaku, who has an overwhelming advantage in performance, can naturally win easily.
The captain of this rebel-modified aircraft carrier lamented in despair: "Then what should we do? This is a converted civilian transport ship! There are no decent close-in defense guns on the warship!"
His spaceship was originally a shuttle carrier for transporting personnel, and it could originally take off and land shuttles. However, these shuttles were converted into fighter jets, so the ship naturally became an aircraft carrier.
However, compared with a real aircraft carrier, this spaceship still has many differences. First of all, the radar and communication systems of this ship are not very advanced and can only be said to be barely adequate.
Secondly, the carrying capacity of this spacecraft is very limited. One spacecraft can only carry more than 70 shuttles, which is much different than the Titan-class aircraft carrier.
The third is that the carrier-based aircraft used to transform the spaceship is really bad. Its performance is not as good as that of the Z-type fighter, and its combat effectiveness is probably about the same as that of the F-type fighter.
But you must know that the F-type fighter is an auxiliary fighter piloted by a puppet, and its combat effectiveness itself is very weak.
Finally, because it did not consider going to the battlefield, this modified spacecraft basically did not have any real close-in defense weapon systems.
It only temporarily installed some micro turrets, the kind of manual anti-aircraft gun turrets controlled by a few people for bravery, but the actual combat effect was terrible.
"What, what can we do?" A wealthy businessman who was serving as a supervisor here was so frightened that he walked back and forth like an ant on a hot pot, mumbling words of despair.
He originally thought that the ship he was traveling on was not a real battleship and was far away from the main battlefield, so his life was not in much danger.
But looking at it now, I realized that my guess was completely wrong! The monster obviously had no intention of letting them go, and the poor performance of the modified spaceship was exposed during the escape process!
Now, even if they want to run away, it's too late!
"He's coming! The monster is coming!" While the wealthy businessman was mumbling something, a sergeant stared at the light spot on the screen and shouted loudly.
"Order the shuttle to intercept! Intercept him!" The captain stared at the scattered light spots on the screen and kept shouting.
In fact, what he saw was not that these modified carrier-based aircraft of his own were intercepting the monster, but that the monster was chasing his own modified carrier-based aircraft that were trying to escape!
Soon, he saw with his own eyes a ball of flame exploding and spreading in the starry sky in the distance. It was the fuel of another carrier-based aircraft that exploded, blooming into a gorgeous firework.
In the cockpit of a shuttle, the pilot nervously looked to the left to observe the distant starry sky. When he didn't notice it, he immediately turned his head and looked to the other side of himself.
"Ha...ha..." Inside the helmet, you could clearly hear his own nervous breathing. He was really scared because he couldn't find the target that was constantly approaching.
"You have been locked! You have been locked!" Suddenly, a rapid prompt sounded in the earphones: "Please turn on the Identification Friend or Foe system! Please turn on the Identification Friend or Foe system! You have been locked by the military radar! You have been locked by the military
Radar locked!”
"Shut up! Shut up! I know! Damn it! Damn it!" He cursed desperately while shaking his joystick, trying to get rid of the opponent's radar lock.
As a result, in the blind spot at his rear, the two electromagnetic cannons on the chest of the extremely fast red No. 4 Zaku began to fire.
With a short shot, a row of bullets hit the engine of the shuttle. The engine's fuel began to explode, swallowing up the shuttle in an instant.
Zaku, who was flying behind it, quickly pulled up to avoid the flames of the explosion and flew towards the huge transport ship in the distance.
In the bridge of the transport ship, a rebel noncommissioned officer saw the friendly signal and shouted angrily: "Independence 2 is turning! They are preparing for an interstellar jump!"
When the captain heard this shout, he immediately looked towards the porthole on the other side. Outside the porthole, another transport ship was changing its course, and the attitude engine on the side was working rapidly.
The captain clenched his fists and shouted angrily: "They want to escape before the battle? Are they not afraid of being..."
In fact, he had just given the order to recharge the jump engine, but he had not had time to give the order to escape.
What makes him so angry now is not that his accomplices are running away from the battlefield, but that the other party is running away faster than he is...
Of course, the content of what he didn't finish was to ask the other party, if you take the lead in escaping when the outcome is not decided, aren't you afraid of being dealt with by your own family master when you return?
Unfortunately, just in the middle of what he said, a sergeant sent him desperate news: "Report! The news I just got is that the cruiser Liberty 2 has been sunk...the battleship USS Lighthouse has lost contact..."
At this time, the situation on the battlefield was not undecided, but had become one-sided. The only battleship lost contact, and the only two cruisers were sunk. This is not good news.
What made him even more desperate was that the noncommissioned officer continued: "One of the destroyer fleets on the flanks escaped, and the other was completely wiped out..."
"What?" The captain was stunned, and even the tone of the word was distorted. His heart was now full of fear, and his whole body was frightened.
Another petty officer followed loudly and reported even more desperate news: "Radar showed that there was a tragic explosion on the battleship USS Lighthouse..."
Judging from the radar reflection signal, the stolen battleship was completely destroyed. It exploded and disintegrated. Judging from the radar screen, it was broken into many pieces...
"It's over...it's all over..." the captain of the modified aircraft carrier murmured, sitting down on his chair and staring blankly at the light spots on the radar screen, not knowing what to do.
Just now, two more light spots disappeared, leaving only pitiful single digits of his carrier-based aircraft still struggling to survive.
After losing these carrier-based aircraft, his modified aircraft carrier is actually just a civilian ship, without much decent combat effectiveness at all...
"Democracy 2 is preparing for a space jump..." Seeing that our spacecraft had changed its course and was about to start a space jump, an observing sergeant reminded loudly.
The captain clenched his fists, stood up, stared at the No. 2 spacecraft and cursed: "These cowards! They want to leave us behind, use them as bait, and run away!"
Now he only has the only way to vent his anger by cursing. The enemy can't defeat him, and he can't run away from friendly forces. It's really a desperate battle.
That damn spaceship No. 2 really used its actual actions to accurately interpret what "you don't have to run faster than the tiger chasing you, you just need to run faster than the people around you!"
The businessman supervisor, who had been walking back and forth, as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, also yelled at this time: "Assholes! These bastards!"
While everyone was greeting the eighteen generations of ancestors of the bitches on Spaceship No. 2, a petty officer who was staring at Spaceship No. 2 outside the ship's side saw a scene that excited him: "Huh? That monster rushed over!
He's attacking Democracy 2... Democracy 2's engine was hit!"
The spacecraft named Democracy 2 had begun to reduce its speed at this moment and was preparing to jump away from the battlefield.
Once it completes the transition, it will not be easy to find it.
As a result, just as the spacecraft began to jump, a particle beam penetrated the tail of the spacecraft, and one shot penetrated a huge nozzle with a diameter of more than five meters.
After the beam penetrated the engine, spacecraft No. 2 immediately exploded with a huge explosion. The violent explosion even blew away a section of the engine and the cabin holding the engine in an instant.
Seeing this scene, the captain, who was already in despair, clapped his hands and cheered again: "Hahahaha! Good fight! Great fight!"
This kind of ups and downs, great sadness and joy, made him look a little crazy. He didn't know why he was so happy, and he didn't have any sympathy when he saw No. 2 being beaten.
But he just felt that he was very happy, very happy. When he saw the No. 2 spacecraft catching fire and exploding, his whole face was filled with smiles, and his whole body was filled with joy!
The communications sergeant reported loudly at this time: "No. 2 is requesting support! They are asking us for help..."
"Go to hell! Let them go! Why didn't you say come and help us when you left us?" The businessman supervisor who was in the same state and was already a little sick also broke out at this time.
He also hysterically rejected No. 2's request for help, as if it was their glorious tradition to ignore death.
Just as he was cursing crazily, the No. 2 spacecraft in the distance exploded again. This time the explosion seemed to be even more out of control. The huge flames illuminated the red Zaku body beside it.
So, the businessman supervisor once again let out a series of wild laughter, as if he was as happy as marrying a new concubine: "Hahahaha! The second engine exploded, and their fuel was exploding! You deserve it! You deserve it!"
"
"Hahahaha! Yes! You deserve it!" The captain on the side also felt that this ending was very satisfying. He clapped his hands and said.
"Captain..." At this time, the adjutant who had been standing beside the captain lowered his voice and reminded him.
The captain was stunned for a moment, then looked at the other party with a puzzled expression on his face: "Huh? What's the matter?"
"Uh... No. 2 has been sunk, and it's our turn... So, don't we need to be so happy?" The adjutant lowered his voice and reminded him again.
"...How much is the jump engine charged? Tell me!" After a short silence, the captain realized that he was happy too early. He looked at the energy dispatch officer and asked.
The officer looked at the universe outside the porthole window, suddenly became relaxed, and said with a smile: "It's too late..."
"Why is it too late?" The captain was stunned for a moment, then followed the other person's gaze and saw the red Zaku rushing over quickly.
"Boom!" The spacecraft underfoot trembled, and violent vibrations were heard. The cargo hold of the transport ship was penetrated by a beam of light, and a tragic explosion began.
As if that wasn't enough, after Zaku penetrated the deck of the transport spacecraft, he drew his lightsaber from behind.
Flying to the side of this transport spacecraft, which was larger than a battleship, the Zaku inserted the shining long sword into the ship's iron plate.
Then, he moved forward along the hull of the spacecraft, disemboweling the warship from the side from beginning to end.
When his long sword drew out from the tail nozzle of the spacecraft, the entire spacecraft exploded behind the Zaku and turned into stars.
At almost the same moment, the Democracy 2 spacecraft in the distance was finally overwhelmed and began to disintegrate and explode. The huge fuel explosion swallowed up the mountain-like hull and tore the thick steel shell into pieces.
"There are two shuttles left! Bring them back! Interrogate the prisoners and confirm their lair... We can't keep His Majesty waiting too long..." Miss Cat's order came from the earphone of the pilot of No. 4 Zaku.
