Chapter 1291: Training? Actual combat!
"Report: All departments have assembled."
"We are ready to launch an attack at any time!" a young sergeant reported, standing next to Zhao Chen.
This is an adjutant chosen by Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen glanced at the time.
Nine minutes and thirty-five seconds.
Within the time frame.
"Look at these guys, they still know the importance of time," Zhao Chen said with a sneer.
In the past, many of them would deliberately arrive late in order to give themselves a hard time.
Now that they've witnessed their own abilities, these people naturally dare not cause any more trouble.
"Pass down my orders."
All departments were dissolved.
However, for the next period of time, I will conduct practical simulation training at irregular intervals.
"Everyone, be on your best!" Zhao Chen said.
"yes."
Zhao Chen looked at the star map.
Just now, their fleet had passed the first most dangerous ambush location.
That's right!
In fact, Zhao Chen's real purpose in this combat simulation was to enable his interstellar fighters and interstellar drones to enter combat status as quickly as possible in the event of an ambush.
Therefore, he specifically arranged this kind of live-fire simulation training.
If no battle takes place at the ambush site, then this is a simulated training exercise.
However, if ambushed, it would allow them to enter combat mode in the shortest possible time.
"Next, we'll move on to the second ambush location." Zhao Chen sat with his arms crossed in front of his office.
Time passed little by little.
The entire flight squadron felt as if a knife was hanging over their heads.
Because the battalion commander said that this live-fire simulation training was not yet over.
This training will be conducted periodically in the coming period.
In other words, nobody knows when the next live-fire simulation training will be.
Although some people think that such an arrangement is unnecessary.
However, because of the abilities Zhao Chen demonstrated, no one dared to openly say anything.
...
I don't know how much time has passed.
Just when everyone thought that the captain's talk of a real combat simulation was just to scare them.
Suddenly the alarm sounded again.
All flight squadrons and interstellar drone modules have entered a state of combat readiness.
The members of each team rushed to their respective rest areas.
First Squad's Rest Room.
Captain Cao Bing looked at the time, then frowned as he watched the three people who entered the rest room at 10:08.
"stop!
What's going on with the three of you?
According to regulations, the assembly time is ten minutes.
"You're eight seconds late!" Captain Cao scolded the three men.
One of them said helplessly, "We were having lunch in the starship restaurant when we heard the alarm, so we rushed over."
However, on the way, we happened to run into another department that was on leave, and the corridor was blocked.
We...we're a little late."
"We didn't do it on purpose, and that captain was obviously messing with us. Why did he have to do a live-fire simulation?"
"And we were just eight seconds short."
The other two people stood there, looking completely innocent, as if they had done nothing wrong.
Captain Cao frowned, went up and kicked each of the three men.
He reprimanded her without any politeness: "Blocking? Eating?"
Is this your excuse for being late?
And what about that mere eight seconds?
Do you know what those eight seconds mean in real combat?
This means your comrades might not receive support and could be destroyed by the enemy!
Hearing Captain Cao's reprimand, the three men could only obediently accept the scolding.
On the other end.
"Report, all squads have completed assembly."
However, three squads exceeded the time limit, but none of them exceeded it by more than twenty seconds! The adjutant reported to Zhao Chen.
"Twenty seconds?" Zhao Chen frowned.
He said in a deep voice, "Announce this to the entire team about these late squads."
"yes."
Zhao Chen looked at the star map, just when he thought this might only be a simulated battle.
Sudden.
The alarms blared throughout the entire starship!
"Captain... this... this doesn't seem to be a simulated combat situation, it's a real combat alarm!" the adjutant said in a panic as he returned.
Zhao Chen naturally knew this.
Because he had already received the combat orders from the bridge.
"Pass on my order to execute the predetermined combat plan."
"Each flight squadron prepares to take off and deploy interstellar drones!" Without saying a word, Zhao Chen entered combat mode and began making arrangements.
Meanwhile, after his adjutant left, he quietly accessed the starship's system backend.
He retrieved some of the information he wanted.
The first thing is the battlefield star map.
As you can see, several red circles have appeared at the front of the Royal Guard fleet.
Interstellar stealth mines?
Zhao Chen saw a word that had been reported.
It appears that the leading interstellar warship has struck an enemy-laid stealth mine.
This is a T5-level technological product.
It's based on the principle of landmines.
However, it is rarely used in interstellar warfare.
Because it is very expensive.
Moreover, that stealth capability has a time limit; once the time limit is exceeded, the energy required for stealth will be completely consumed.
Then the ambush effect is lost.
Therefore, to use this weapon, it is necessary to determine the enemy's flight path and travel time, and then place these interstellar mines along their inevitable route.
All of the above conditions are indispensable.
However, with Song Chen's 'cooperation,' it was perfectly normal for the enemy to have this data.
In this first ambush, Zhao Chen saw that nearly thirty interstellar warships in the Royal Guard fleet had suffered varying degrees of damage.
Among them, the five interstellar warships that led the way had their Star Shield energy completely exhausted, and one of the warships was even damaged.
At the same time, a large number of enemy interstellar warships appeared in the surrounding area.
The number is approximately over a thousand.
However, all of these thousand ships are T5-level or higher interstellar warships, and among them, one can even spot near-T6 interstellar warships from enemy space.
A near-T6 Cardavial-class medium interstellar battleship.
This is the only near-T6 level interstellar warship the enemy possesses.
And there are nearly thirty of them!
It is six times the number of quasi-T6 interstellar warships in Song Chen's personal guard fleet.
It seems the enemy came prepared.
It's all aimed at eliminating Song Chen.
"Song Qingshan, the task you assigned me is no simple matter," Zhao Chen couldn't help but complain.
He then left his office and went to the combat hangar.
At this moment, all the combat hangars were bustling with activity.
One by one, the interstellar fighters began to take off.
Zhao Chen walked up to his interstellar fighter.
"Captain, are you going into battle too?" The adjutant hurriedly followed.
“I’m a fighter pilot. What else can I do if I don’t go?” Zhao Chen retorted.
"But...usually, the battalion commanders are in command from the rear."
"You're not here..." the adjutant said with some concern.
Zhao Chen rolled his eyes: "I've told you everything I need to."
You can handle the rest for me.
If you really don't know how to handle it, then contact me.
that's all."
After saying that, Zhao Chen put on his helmet and closed the canopy!
