Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1286: Is it going to come down again?

The movements of large fleets are extremely sluggish and slow. Even with quick and convenient jumps, there are too many things that need to be coordinated and commanded each time.

Moreover, the movement of large fleets cannot be hidden from anyone. The reconnaissance fleets of both sides that are now roaming around in the dark star field have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the agents of both sides are everywhere, watching how the fleet moves.

Considering the difficulty of large-scale deception operations, the actions of large fleets are difficult to hide.

Not to mention the trouble, every time a large fleet moves, it needs to scout the conditions of the target jump location in advance. Even in the dark star field, there may not be nothing, such as void creatures, wandering celestial bodies, etc. If the fleet jumps rashly, it may suffer non-combat casualties. In addition, it is necessary to scout whether there is an enemy ambush at the jump target location.

The same thing happened when the Xuanshui Federation intercepted the Red Maple Republic fleet before. The Red Maple Republic's reconnaissance ships would jump over first to check. When they discovered the Xuanshui Federation fleet, they would go back and report to the main force, and then the main force would modify the jump position to avoid jumping directly into the enemy's face.

This distance is definitely enough to calmly adjust the formation after the jump and engage in a collision with the enemy fleet.

The last ambush was successful mainly because small warships such as the Swan were hiding in the asteroid belt and could not be detected by radar. Otherwise, they would have been covered by fire before the aircraft group was released.

To use a very vivid metaphor, the fleet's action mode is like a small, agile and sharp-eyed mouse leading the way in the complex and dense tropical rainforest, while a huge, blind and heavy-footed elephant follows closely behind.

The reconnaissance fleet spotted the Swan at the first moment, and also saw the eye-catching four-leaf clover emblem on the Swan's wings, so they initiated a communication with the Swan instead of firing a few shots to cheer it up.

After a conversation to confirm their identities, the other party said that they couldn't make the decision on your matter and would wait until the fleet arrived.

The reconnaissance fleet confirmed that the surrounding area was safe, and three of the warships jumped back.

After all, due to the limitations of communication conditions, even though there are starships flying all over the sky, with the current level of technology, only communication within a star system can be achieved, and relay satellites cannot cover the entire area. The jump of a battleship is only a dozen yars, which is beyond the communication range, so they can only drive back and report manually.

The location where the fleet hides before reaching the target location is confidential. As with the Swan's jump, waypoints will be planned in advance and the jump will follow a specific route.

In short, Alyssa needs to wait here for the fleet to come.

Nearly half an hour later, the first batch of warships of the main fleet jumped here, and then they jumped here one after another according to their respective formations.

The matter of the Swan was also reported to all levels. While waiting, looking at these warships, each of which was several times larger than the Swan, lined up in a row, the feeling of oppression was really strong.

During the waiting time, the fleet sent seven or eight communications, each time basically to confirm the identity and make sure it was not the enemy in disguise.

Finally, after a lot of trouble, Alyssa was told that the matter was of great importance and no long-distance communication could be used. She had to go see the fleet commander in person.

So the Swan followed the route sent by the other party, shuttling between ships of all sizes, and finally found a particularly large starship.

The total length of this starship is over ten kilometers, and in terms of volume, it is almost 1.3 times the size of an ordinary starship.

The 400mm caliber triple-mounted heavy artillery on it can only be regarded as a secondary gun among secondary guns. The main weapon is a twin-mounted 980mm caliber giant cannon and a triple-mounted railgun of unknown caliber.

This is also the biggest feature of this starship. It is not equipped with ion cannons used by most warships, also known as charged particle cannons, but instead makes extensive use of railguns. It is one of the technology verification ships.

It is the first Morninglight-class starship, the Morninglight. It was originally planned to build ten ships and assign them to the ten strongest ones in the main fleet of the Whirlpool Federation.

But the commanders of other fleets were not happy. There were 22 fleets, so why were only 10 able to get such a big treasure?
After a lot of tug-of-war, the Central Council finally made the decision.

Aren't you dissatisfied? Well, then don't take them all.

As a result, only one Morning Light-class starship was built for technical verification, and all subsequent construction plans were cancelled...
——The enemy is on Capitol Hill. However, as the largest, newest and strongest starship of the Swirling Federation, its combat capability is unclear, but its defense is absolutely amazing, and it is the safest to use as a fleet flagship.

Since the docking channel was broken and there was no time to repair it during this period, Alyssa and Shadow Tiger could only switch to the Manta shuttle after the Swan approached the flagship and go to the fleet flagship to meet the commander-in-chief.

Of course, the person who was responsible for driving was not Li Chengxi, but Hall. Li Chengxi was too lazy to do such tedious tasks.

As soon as Alyssa and Shadow Tiger got off the Manta, someone immediately went up to scan and check them. They used biological tests to confirm that they were the real people, and also scanned to see if they were carrying any dangerous items.

Then he took them to the fleet command room on the battlefield.

However, Li Chengxi had no idea what Alyssa and Yinghu talked about inside, because before entering the room, someone asked to confiscate all the magical machines, including the personal terminal on Alyssa's arm. Even the implant in her head was interfered with to ensure that the conversation in the command room would not be recorded in any form.

The whole process was not long, lasting less than twenty minutes, and Shadow Tiger did not stay. He followed Alyssa and got on the Manta Ray and drove back to the Swan.

"Everyone listen to me."

Back on the bridge, Alyssa locked the door to the bridge and said to everyone:

"Next we will participate in Operation Meteor. Our main mission is to escort Shadow Tiger and cooperate with friendly forces."

When Long heard this, the flickering halo in his crystal ball-like head turned twice.

She was actually not very willing to let Alyssa participate in this kind of frontal battle, and immediately said:

"How far do you want to go?"

Alyssa could hear what Long meant, and nodded to her:

"Although we are cooperating in this operation, our friendly forces will actually do their best to cover us. There are a total of six warships doing the same job as us. As long as one of them succeeds, Operation Meteor will be halfway successful."

Everyone looked at Yinghu, who pointed at his head and said:

"I have the key to restart the Star Gate in my head. In the next operation, you need to escort me to the Star Gate control terminal. The so-called Meteor Operation is mainly aimed at retaking the Star Gate."

"But I don't quite understand."

Carlos said:

"If it's just a transportation mission, there are many cruisers in the fleet that can do it. There's no need to use the Swan."

“The fact is we have to act.”

Alyssa added:

"The stargate control terminal is in a gravity environment. The ship that was originally scheduled to pick up Shadow Tiger is a specially modified cruiser. Like the Swan, it can break through the atmosphere and perform fire cover missions during the descent operation. But now it has a problem and one ship is missing, so we are the only one who can make up for the shortage."

It’s going to come down again?
