Chapter 240 Intercepting the Supply Fleet (Part 1)

The four Tezien frigates formed a square shape and tightly wrapped around as many as ten Tezien merchant ships. These merchant ships were very large in size, each with a length of 10 kilometers. However, despite their huge size, these cargo ships do not actually have high technical content.

Unlike the Iridium people who equip their merchant ships with separate warp engines, these merchant ships don't even have warp devices. They enter warp speed entirely by connecting four Tezion frigates to form a super large warp bubble. Wrapping the cargo ship inside.

This is also a significant gap in technology. For the Iridium people, it is not a big deal to build a warp engine for merchant ships, but it is obviously not cost-effective for Tezion.

The crew of the Taizion frigate reported to Gemelas: "Ready, the fleet can enter warp speed at any time."

When most warp speed ships turn on their warp speed, they will choose a space far away from massive celestial bodies, because the gravity of massive celestial bodies will have a certain impact on the formation of warp bubbles. The higher the level of technology, the smaller this impact. Legend has it that advanced civilizations have even completed the technology of sending small ships into warp bubbles on the surface of the planet.

Jimelas waved his hand and said: "Hurry up, our battleships are still waiting for this batch of supplies."

He naturally knew how significant this batch of supplies from ten cargo ships was to the fleet. The scale of Tezion's expedition is very large, and the first batch of fleets sent out are the most risky. They will try to minimize the number of stops to hunt, thus forming a surprise attack on the earth. The subsequent batches of fleets will proceed relatively steadily, establishing transfer bases in three places so that more warships can arrive later.

The supplies provided by Jimelas this time are for the second fleet. The economic strength of the Tezien civilization is definitely not wealthy. Although they continue to wage wars and have tens of thousands of warships, there is no possibility of these warships being dispatched at the same time. Tezion's economy is largely based on the exploitation of vassal civilizations. A group of people who are slaves and may even be eaten at any time are unlikely to build any developed material civilization for Tezien.

Taizion has the ability to provide sufficient equipment and supplies to the first fleet, but the second fleet cannot even provide all the individual armor of marine soldiers.

The cargo ship in Jimeras contains some individual armor that can be worn by Taizien people, a certain amount of individual tactical equipment, various daily military consumables, from cleaning supplies to medicines, and the daily maintenance and repair of warships. required. With this batch of supplies, the second fleet can arrive at the Danlu Interstellar Cloud as soon as possible.

Jimelas is not worried about the combat effectiveness of the powerful Tezion civilization. The Earth civilization and the Iridium civilization combined are not as good as Tezion, and even a few powerful weapons are of no avail. But if the Danlu Interstellar Cloud can be captured earlier, Taizion can start colonizing this interstellar cloud earlier.

"I wonder if there are suitable desert planets in the Danlu interstellar clouds." Jimelas thought. The Taizien people are not adapted to a particularly humid environment. Their bodies can lock in moisture very well. An excessively humid environment will cause They have metabolic and endocrine disorders, and the Taizians do not like lush trees.

It's not that the Taizien people don't like planets like Earth, where deserts also exist. This kind of planet has the most diverse climate and vegetation, so basically most carbon-based organisms can survive on planets like the Earth. And for the Taizien people, this kind of planet can also be used as a pasture to raise their food.

Jimelas was thinking about various things, then frowned and asked the men beside him: "Why are you taking so long? Why haven't you entered the warp bubble yet?"

The men were busy debugging the equipment at hand and said: "I don't know what happened. We may have been interfered by some cosmic rays. Now the calculation of the spatial coordinates is messed up. We can't enter the warp speed for the time being."

Jimelas suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Just when he was about to ask his men to review it, a Taizien man on the other side of the bridge shouted: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Aircraft targets, the number cannot be determined!"

Jimelas almost fell off his seat. He could see a place not far away from the battleship without using any detectors such as radar. A group of star fighters appeared completely out of thin air in the bridge window. , Jimelas saw a huge bomb hanging under most of the bodies of the starfighters.

"Hell, it's a heavy-duty anti-ship torpedo!" Jimelas' eyes were splitting.

At this time, the Banshee fighter fleet was already within the Tezion fleet, and the distance between some fighters and the Tezion merchant ship was not even more than 10,000 meters.

"Kinara-7, on a bombing mission!" Silver-haired Dean said coolly.

Wearing a brainwave control tactical helmet, he didn't have to press the button, he gave the command directly in his head. The heavy anti-ship torpedo mounted on the Banshee fighter flew out in response, and a stream of shining plasma was ejected from the tail. stream, flying towards a merchant ship.

Jimelas roared in horror: "Counterattack, counterattack! Where is the self-defense gun, intercept it!"

The Tezion frigate immediately mobilized its weapons in an attempt to intercept the heavy torpedo released by the Iridium fighter plane. In space warfare, torpedoes are weapons with obvious advantages and disadvantages. The combat part of most torpedoes is larger than that of missiles, which means they are more powerful. However, at the same time, the range of torpedoes is relatively short and their flight speed is relatively short. Slow, so it is easy to be intercepted.

An ordinary ship may not have any big problems after being hit by one missile. It often takes many missiles to hit it before it can sink it. But if something like a torpedo hits it, the ship will be basically destroyed.

"No, we have to give priority to intercepting the weapons attacking us." The captain of the frigate righteously rejected Jimelas's instructions. After all, he was the one who actually commanded the warship.

An Iridium fighter wing has as many as seventy or eighty fighters, and these fighters are all equipped with a torpedo. After being fired, the Tezion frigates were immediately in a hurry.

Dean's eyes were fixed. The moment he released the torpedo, he pulled up the plane violently and let the fighter plane circle quickly. The fighter plane's weapons were aimed at a frigate. The electromagnetic gun and beam cannon were fired at the same time. The brilliant firelight hit Taizien. The frigate's shield stirred up waves.
