Chapter 1315 Star Gate Attack and Defense (3)

Can a war really change because of one person?

It is indeed unlikely. The power of a single person is too small in war. Even the unstoppable King of Western Chu committed suicide by slashing his throat at the Wujiang River in the end.

Whether it is the Red Maple Republic or the Whirlwater Federation, both sides own more than a dozen star systems, a total population of tens of billions, and more than 20,000 combat ships, not to mention the huge logistics support and cargo ships.

Li Chengxi was driving a Lionfish. Even if he could use a space fighter to defeat the starship, just imagine how overwhelming it would be for him to fight against 20,000 warships alone.

But just because humans can’t do it doesn’t mean God can’t do it.

Li Chengxi's ability to interfere with Alyssa's side was the weakest. He couldn't even reach in to help block one or two attacks like Yang Yiyi did, let alone reach in and smash the battleship into pieces like he did with Viola.

So, what does he want to do?

A large number of space fighter signals appeared on the radar. They were the fleets released by the Red Maple Republic warships. They must have seen the Lionfish approaching rapidly on the enemy's radar.

As mentioned before, the combination of Li Chengxi and Lionfish has spread among the Red Maple Republic Army. It is almost an urban legend that there is a madman who can appear on the battlefield driving a space fighter that is so fast that it is impossible to see.

Regardless of whether the legends they passed down by word of mouth were reliable, it was obvious that the originally tight formation of aircraft was dispersing, as could be clearly seen on the radar.

It was obvious that they were afraid of being attacked head-on by Li Chengxi, so they dispersed their formation to reduce damage and surround him from the side and rear.

If it were normal times, Li Chengxi would be happy to play with them.

But now, there is no time.

Hold the flight stick with one hand and push the throttle lever to the top with the other hand.

Since they were willing to disperse, it was just like making way for Li Chengxi. The lionfish moving at full speed had a speed more than four times that of an ordinary space fighter, and there was no time to stop it.

The Lionfish passed through the group of aircraft almost in a straight line, without firing or maneuvering, as if it was simply passing by.

The Red Maple Republic's fleet that was maneuvering could only see the Lionfish's engine light moving away quickly, and could not even sense the exhaust.

However, they did not chase them because the fleet of aircraft from the Whirlpool Federation was also approaching.

Li Chengxi could see that the originally blurry engine light on the screen became clearer and clearer, and the shadow of the battleship gradually emerged from the dark background of the universe.

He let go of the joystick and grabbed the mouse.

As the lionfish continued to approach the enemy cruiser and mobile aircraft carrier formation, a circle of divine light suddenly lit up around it. Round, door-like things were lined up in a row, rotating and opening, and ten mechanical angels flew out from them.

They held hands, formed a circle, trapped the lionfish in it, and flew forward quickly together.

Li Chengxi's distance had already entered the visual range of the warship, so this scene would of course be seen by the people on the bridge, and they could see it very clearly.

It doesn’t matter. This is different from being with Yang Yiyi. Li Chengxi doesn’t need to hide his whereabouts.

Instead, he hoped that the soldiers of the Red Maple Republic would see that this would be his declaration of war.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

On the other side, on the Swan——

"Meet the barrage of attacks!"

"Hold up the shield and keep on course!"

Since this is a fleet battle and is currently in the process of overall fleet maneuvering, the Swan, as a member of the fleet, cannot maneuver randomly, which will cause problems for friendly forces in front, behind, and on both sides.

So he didn't perform an emergency dodge like usual, but instead held up the shield to withstand it.

However, due to the relatively long distance, the accuracy of the artillery was worrying. Only two ion beams flew past the Swan's shield and did not cause any damage.

"The enemy aircraft group has come into contact with our group and is fighting for air superiority."

Since Hall was unfit to drive due to a concussion, and Li Chengxi was a guy who didn't like to communicate with the rear during a battle, the Swan could only judge that a fierce battle was going on through radar and could not get more information.

Now we can only follow the instructions of the fleet commander.

Soon, new information appeared on the monitor in the captain's seat. Alyssa took a quick glance and immediately reached out to set a new route on the screen. "Change route, cruising speed."

"Understood, half ship speed."

Carlos turned according to the new route, and at this time the second wave of enemy artillery fire came.

This time it was obviously much more accurate than the last time. The Swan's shield was hit by a large-caliber grenade, and the exploding flames caused a noticeable flash on the bridge.

"The order to attack has come. Long, aim at the target I set and test the aim."

"Open the main gun and start test firing."

The lance main gun appeared under the bow armor plate, and the two secondary gun turrets also turned.

Energy began to gather in the huge muzzle of the Light Lance's main gun, and three seconds later the main gun and the secondary gun fired together.

Alyssa called up the optical sighting equipment in the captain's seat and could clearly see the glowing ion beam rushing towards the enemy fleet, and at the far end of the field of vision, an orange flame exploded.

"Hit, prepare for the next salvo."

"No, it missed."

The gunner's sight has a higher magnification than the captain's, but a narrower field of view.

The normal process of engaging the enemy is that the radar operator detects the enemy, the captain uses observation and aiming equipment to track the enemy into the firing range, and the gunner moves the gun scope to aim according to the radar and the captain's direction guidance.

So the gunner actually sees farther than the captain, and Long can confirm with certainty that the test shot just now did not hit the target.

But it clearly didn't hit, so why was there an orange explosion flash?
Alyssa was slightly startled, and at this moment she saw the outline of the warship she was aiming at began to deform.

Even though this was in a star system, where starlight provided a great deal of illumination, the darkness of the void was simply too much.

Even the engine light of a battleship is just an inconspicuous pixel in the photo if you only look at it with the naked eye.

When entering the firing range, the optical sighting system can only see the outline of the warship and the navigation lights, and more details are still hidden in the darkness.

There is usually only one possibility when the outline of a warship is deformed.

The battleship's main structure was destroyed and it was falling apart.

The orange flash of the explosion was reflected in the optical sighting system again, and Alyssa was sure that the battleship was indeed collapsing.

Since it didn't hit the target, why did it explode by itself?

"Could it be Li Chengxi..."

"Who else but him?"

In the past, Li Chengxi would always fight with the aircraft group for a while as a warm-up before going to attack the battleships. This time, he obviously went straight to the battleships.

The lionfish obviously couldn't be seen in the optical sighting system as it was too small, but it was clear that Li Chengxi had done something.

However, Li Chengxi had been acting recklessly on the battlefield for a long time, so Alyssa immediately set her target on another warship.

Long received the message, but before he pulled the trigger and was aiming, the outline of the battleship began to deform, accompanied by an orange flash of explosion.

"So fast?"

Now Alyssa is no longer surprised that Li Chengxi can challenge the battleship alone, but even if the opponent is a cruise ship, he shouldn't be able to kill two in a row so quickly, right?
Alyssa lowered the magnification of the sighting system a little, which was equivalent to pulling the lens back.

Then she saw that in the blurry void in the distance, the fleet of the Red Maple Republic was exploding one after another like a string of firecrackers.

And she was sure that the battleship's explosion had little to do with friendly fire.

Is this what Li Chengxi meant by officially participating in this war?

Could it be that he was just playing before?
