Chapter 1292: Octopus death net broken
Zhao Chen took off in his near-T6 Rose Knight-class starfighter.
Although this was his first time actually piloting this starfighter, he had already learned about its various capabilities.
It is clear to me.
With several training sessions in the simulator, Zhao Chen found piloting this interstellar fighter to be a breeze.
"Colonel Zhao, your unit's mission this time..."
It is to safeguard the airspace surrounding the Black Rose I ship.
Enemy interstellar fighters and interstellar drones will not be allowed to threaten our airspace.
Zhao Chen heard the order from the bridge.
Unlike Song Qingshan's group, which emphasizes interstellar fighters, here interstellar fighters and interstellar drones play a more auxiliary role.
"Understood," Zhao Chen replied.
If you don't have to take the risks yourself, why not?
"All squads, execute according to Plan C," Zhao Chen ordered in his command channel.
At the same time, an order was issued to the department responsible for the management of interstellar drones: "All interstellar drones shall remain on standby and shall not be deployed without my order."
"yes."
Next, all Zhao Chen and the others had to do was wait.
Zhao Chen, on the other hand, was enjoying the ambush.
Although it was an ambush.
However, Song Chen was actually prepared. The moment the ambush occurred, he used his pre-prepared battle plan.
Three hundred interstellar warships were arranged in a triangular defensive formation.
Important interstellar warships, such as aircraft carriers.
The star destroyers and star escorts are positioned on the outer side, tasked with intercepting enemy attacks.
This is undoubtedly the best solution.
Although the enemy has a thousand interstellar warships, it is still very difficult to quickly take down these three hundred interstellar warships under this defensive formation.
"Immediately relay the news of our attack!" Song Chen decisively ordered from the bridge.
But soon, bad news arrived.
"Report: A strong long-range communication jamming device has appeared in the vicinity."
"We are unable to send out any distress signals!" the communications officer reported anxiously.
Communication interference.
Song Chen's face darkened, but this was exactly what he had expected.
"Notify any nearby stealth reconnaissance ships to immediately move out of the enemy's communication jamming range and send out the intelligence from here."
And the coordinates of the location where we were attacked!
"yes!"
The stealthy interstellar reconnaissance ship, which had been lurking in the shadows, immediately began to leave the combat zone.
But something unexpected happened.
A sudden explosion occurred in the 'empty' space, and then one after another, stealth interstellar reconnaissance ships were exposed.
"Report: All five of our interstellar stealth reconnaissance ships have been attacked by an unknown enemy."
It's been exposed!
"We can't execute the original battle plan!" the subordinate said anxiously.
Song Chen looked at the star map.
Five interstellar stealth reconnaissance ships have indeed been exposed.
And the attackers made no attempt to hide.
They were actually several interstellar combat anti-stealth ships!
"It seems the enemy was prepared." Song Chen's face darkened.
Although he was prepared for this situation.
Another backup plan is...
During this period, she would secretly contact Song Qingshan every now and then.
The two parties have reached an agreement.
If no contact is made within the agreed time, it means that the enemy has attacked and communication has been disrupted.
In this way, Song Qingshan would be able to learn about the attack on Song Chen's fleet, although he would not be able to accurately deliver the information to the space without obtaining the precise coordinates.
But at least, we can determine a general range.
If all else fails, we can guess a coordinate range, send the fleet over, and then conduct a thorough search.
The location of the ambush point has been found.
However, this would greatly increase Song Chen's risk level.
That's the worst-case scenario.
Song Chen didn't say anything more; it seemed they could only proceed with the worst-case scenario.
"Keep holding our ground, we can definitely hold out until reinforcements arrive!" Song Chen said, offering words of encouragement.
On the other end.
Zhao Chen also saw those interstellar integrated combat anti-stealth ships.
This is a very rare type of ship, and it also has stealth capabilities.
The technology involved is extremely difficult, but the combat capability is not very strong.
Therefore, very few interstellar forces would develop this type of ship.
It belongs to the type where the investment cost is very high and the return is very low.
Unless, of course, your enemy is someone with exceptional abilities in stealth technology.
Take Zhao Chen's Dragon Legion, for example.
In the universe of the JF-17, when Zhao Chen rose to power, there were interstellar forces that were developing this interstellar warship.
But in the beginning, they were just conventional interstellar anti-stealth ships.
Furthermore, their technological level was very low.
When Zhao Chen brought out the T5 interstellar stealth reconnaissance ship, those interstellar forces were often only deploying T4-level interstellar stealth anti-stealth ships.
Therefore, the JF-17 has always maintained a technological gap.
Later, when the entire universe was under the control of the JF-17.
Zhao Chen simply acquired all the research institutes that were developing anti-stealth technology for a hefty sum.
They will continue to develop this technology, but it will be for the JF-17 Thunder.
This is a great technology, but it can only be mastered by ourselves.
Let's get back to the main topic.
Zhao Chen glanced at the backstage area he had set up on the bridge.
They learned that the remote communication had been intercepted.
He frowned slightly.
This would greatly delay the arrival of reinforcements.
If the enemy has only deployed these thousand interstellar warships, perhaps there won't be too much of a problem.
But what if...
Sudden!
Zhao Chen saw 'halos' appearing on both sides of the battlefield in the distance.
Damn it, the worst has happened.
Those apertures are nothing other than...
These are the engines of interstellar warships.
These interstellar warships were not from enemy space.
It belongs to the Covenant universe.
The Covenant warriors were also familiar with the types of these interstellar warships.
These interstellar warships didn't even bother to conceal their designations.
The starship's number and the fleet to which it belonged were clearly known.
Zhao Chen zoomed in on the image.
You can tell the difference now.
They come from three major conservative families.
And it was their most elite fleet.
Each fleet has three hundred interstellar warships, which means there are nearly a thousand more interstellar warships now.
The situation took a sharp turn for the worse!
"This...this is the Snowstorm Fleet from the Murong family; the Tiger Roar Fleet from the Tang family; and the Double Axe Fleet from the Cheng family!" The vice-captain stared in astonishment at the scene.
Song Chen remained unmoved and said with a sneer, "These guys."
They're really not hiding anything; they're prepared to go all out this time.
"You really want me dead."
Two thousand interstellar warships, ambushing three hundred interstellar warships.
Even if these three hundred interstellar warships are elite.
It's also very difficult to stick with it.
Song Chen's three hundred interstellar warships are in imminent danger!
"My lord... I... I have an idea."
