A rain of blood falls from the sky, the apocalypse descends, mountains and rivers change color, and demons run rampant. Civilization collapses, order is chaotic, and survivors desperately try to fi...
Canggu Star, General Command Headquarters.
Asai gazed at the battlefield images transmitted back and fell into deep thought.
Xiaoman rested her chin on her hand, her brows furrowing and relaxing intermittently, muttering, "How can we lure them in and wipe them all out?"
Suddenly, Hurtai pointed to a marginal area and asked, "Look, is there an opportunity here?"
After reading it, everyone remained silent.
“There is a chance, but it’s very risky!” Asai looked at Xiaoman, “Princess, what do you think?”
“I think it’s feasible!” Turning to the projection, he pointed to three other locations. “We can send a team to launch a feint attack in the east, west, or north, and then focus our main force on the south. Only in this way can we severely damage the enemy’s morale.”
"Follow the Grand Princess's strategy!" Huertai ordered Santian.
"This battle is crucial to seizing the initiative in the entire war. Sanda is not up to the task, so I will go myself!" Xiaoman's eyes were firm.
"Absolutely not!" The generals were sweating profusely. "The Princess is of noble birth; how can she risk her life on the front lines? If she suffers even the slightest injury, we will all be held accountable!"
Xiaoman didn't speak, but took out the late king's token and said, "All soldiers, listen to my command! This matter is settled!"
Left with no other choice, everyone had to agree.
......
The meteorite area, to the south.
Xiaoman is leading nine stealth fighters, slowly making their way towards their destination.
Suddenly, the radar detected an anomaly.
"Everyone, prepare for battle!"
"receive!"
With their mental focus highly concentrated, the fighter jet moved forward at a slower speed.
A few minutes later, a large meteorite appeared directly in front of them, and the team had to split into two groups to get to it.
Just as they were considering whether to split up their forces, dozens of laser beams attacked from multiple directions.
"We've fallen for their trap!" Xiaoman's face darkened. "Free fighting!"
The stealth fighters all activated their protective shields, revealing themselves.
"You wolf cubs, today I'll show you the might of the Crimson Hun Empire's air force!"
"Brothers, kill!"
"Kill them!"
Nine fighter jets continuously weaved through the dense laser beams, fiercely retaliating.
call out!
Boom!
An enemy plane that couldn't avoid the explosion exploded, and the flames interfered with two other fighter jets, which were then shot down by Xiaoman as she swooped down.
The enemy lost three fighter jets immediately after the firefight began, and the commander's heart was in his throat.
"Separate them and defeat them one by one!"
After the enemy changed tactics, they quickly lured away an overly aggressive fighter jet.
Several enemy planes rushed out from multiple directions, and it was hit.
The moment the deafening roar erupted, the driver shouted, "Long live the Crimson Hun Empire!"
The explosion was deafening.
"Brothers!" The Chihun squad leader's eyes were bloodshot, and he was filled with murderous intent. "Kill them! Avenge our fallen brothers!"
"Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!"
The morale of the Red Hun soldiers was soaring, and they chased after the enemy aircraft to kill them.
With a cold expression, Xiaoman continuously used high-difficulty flying skills, taking down seven enemy planes in one go.
Just as they were about to continue the slaughter, a huge, hollow roar came from behind them.
"Come to the ginseng field!"
The nine men were overjoyed and chased after the enemy plane even faster.
As the tide turned, the enemy's morale plummeted the moment they saw the main ship appear. After escaping pursuit, they fled towards the center of the asteroid field.
"Chase them down! Leave no one alive!"
Eight stealth fighters gave chase at full speed.
Xiaoman's face darkened, and she immediately ordered, "Don't pursue a cornered enemy! Come back! Come back!"
The squad members were already in a killing frenzy, completely ignoring orders and accelerating their pursuit.
Sanda and the others had no choice but to follow.
After fighting their way through, they unknowingly arrived at the core area.
Suddenly, Xiaoman had a very bad feeling. "Return to base immediately! Return to base immediately!"
Before the last word was uttered, the lead aircraft appeared in the center of the enemy's position.
The void became distorted, and countless enemy ships appeared.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" Xiaoman shouted hoarsely.
Whoosh!
Rumble...
Half of the stealth fighter squadron was wiped out instantly, and the rest were also smoking in several places. Only the squadron leader's fighter jet was intact.
"Rescue! Quick, quick!" Santian was very anxious.
Countless fighter jets burst out from the main ship and fired wildly at the enemy.
The brief exchange of fire resulted in heavy casualties on both sides.
Suddenly, more than a dozen enemy planes locked onto Xiaoman's fighter jet.
The sky was filled with dense lasers and rays; to repel the attacks, one had to use hellish flight maneuvers again.
Without hesitation, Xiaoman rushed upwards, performing a somersault and a roll.
Neither side had ever seen such flight technology before, and nine out of ten people were stunned on the spot.
"A great opportunity!"
The fighter jets swooped down and fired wildly at the enemy ranks.
Boom, rumble...
In the blink of an eye, only two of the dozen or so enemy planes remained, and the pilots scrambled away to escape.
"Well done, Princess!"
"I swear: I will become a hero like the Great Princess, galloping across the battlefield and weaving through enemy lines!"
"You kid, make sure you've secured the battle situation before we talk about the future!"
No one could have imagined that this battle dialogue would become an inspirational quote for the soldiers of the Crimson Hun Empire, and even give rise to tens of millions of superheroes. (Afterword)
The group learned Xiaoman's fighting techniques and quickly disrupted the enemy's formation.
As soon as the army was thrown into chaos, Sanda immediately pressed forward.
It's obvious what the outcome would be if a flagship were to fight against ordinary fighter jets.
The enemy retreated in disarray.
Xiaoman glanced at the energy meter, which was empty, and ordered, "All fighters, replace with energy stones!"
"yes!"
The energy stones were quickly replaced, with Xiaoman taking the lead and rushing to the front.
A group of fighter jets followed behind.
The enemy fled the central area, then suddenly turned and opened fire indiscriminately.
Their sudden move caught many off guard, resulting in the destruction of over ten fighter jets.
"Damn it, fight back! Fight back!"
"Kill these damned ancient Shu people! Kill them!"
The fighter jets separated and returned fire at the enemy.
The two sides clashed, and Sanda immediately piloted his main ship to reinforce them. Just as he was about to get close, a focused-energy cannon shot flew straight at him.
"Avoid it, avoid it!"
Several captains were operating the ship with great effort.
The main ship is too large to turn around in a short time.
The focused beam of energy is getting closer and closer.
A driver pulled his teacher away and manually operated the vehicle.
The main ship tilted rapidly toward the left slope.
"Hard to port!"
The most experienced captain immediately cooperated, and the main ship tilted even faster.
At this moment, the beam of light also arrived in front of the main ship, passing close to the protective shield.
"Keep the rudder fully open, and don't let go!"
The driver gripped the control lever with all his might, blood gushing from his palms and the space between his thumb and forefinger.
He endured inhuman pain and forcefully pulled the main ship back from the brink of death.
The focused beam of energy finally passed through, and everyone cheered.
"You're something else, kid!" Sanda punched the pilot in the chest. "After the war, I'll personally present you with an award. Also, from now on, you're the co-pilot!"
"Huh?" Wang Ergou, an orphan, was exceptionally admitted to the Air Force Academy by chance. He entered the army with excellent grades in all subjects and became a pilot of a combat ship at the age of 20. He will later grow into the number one pilot of the Chihun Empire and have extremely high prestige.
"Don't just stand there, hurry up and thank the captain!" His comrade nudged him.
Wang Ergou stood ramrod straight, his gaze hardening, and placed his hand on his heart. "Captain, I will work even harder to become the captain as soon as possible!"
"I believe in you, do a good job!" Sanda said with a smile.
In the time that followed, with the combined efforts of Wang Ergou and the veteran pilot, the main ship transformed into a battlefield ghost, striking fear into the hearts of the enemy.
Xiaoman had wanted to ask for a long time, but she was relentlessly pursued by enemy aircraft. After finally taking them down, she asked, "Who is piloting the main ship?"
Wang Ergou's heart tightened, thinking that the Grand Princess was coming to question him, and he stammered, "I!"
"Well done! Keep it up!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Having received affirmation from someone whose power was second only to the Emperor, Wang Ergou was overjoyed and his confidence soared. He piloted his flagship toward the enemy's lead aircraft.
The enemy panicked completely, shouting, "Protect the navigator! Protect the navigator!"
The already somewhat chaotic fighter jet formation became even more disorganized, with two fools actually crashing into each other, resulting in an explosion that took three fighter jets with it.
After their incompetent teammates provided a crucial assist, they no longer wanted to stay and fight, and scattered and fled.
"No pursuit!" Xiaoman ordered.
Using laser weapons and focused energy weapons, the group wiped out one-third of the routed troops.
Just as they were about to take down the navigator, the void twisted again, and a chilling aura filled the entire airspace.
"Enemy detected, 4th Army, 4th Regiment!" the radar's mechanical voice announced.
Santian's face darkened, and his brows furrowed. "Princess, the enemy's main force has arrived. Should we fight or retreat?"
"Let's launch a surprise attack before they fully deploy their forces!"
"Yes, sir!" Sanda stared intently at the data fed back by the AI. "All fighters, charge!"
"kill!"
A dark mass of fighter jets rushed toward the Fourth Regiment.
Commander Manha gave a cold smile and nodded to his trusted confidant.
He immediately understood, grabbed the communication device, and shouted, "Keep the long snake formation!"
Fighter jets continuously burst out from the main ship, forming a straight line in the air, instantly creating a long snake formation.
Santian was completely dumbfounded.
Fortunately, Xiaoman, having arrived on Blue Star, recognized the formation at a glance. A cold smile appeared on her lips. "A mere long snake formation, daring to show off in front of me. Orders: First regiment, attack from the snake's belly, beware of the snake's head coming to reinforce. Second and third regiments, attack the snake's head, and do your best to hold it back."
Second Division, attack the snake's tail; we must not give it a chance to strike the central army, nor allow it to reinforce the snake's head.
"clear!"
Sanda's air force launched a full-scale attack on the long, serpentine formation.
The moment the battle began, the commander of the Long Snake Formation felt a chill run down his spine and muttered, "These people seem to know how to break the formation?"
"Tch, they don't know anything!" said the lieutenant.
The commander immediately relaxed and adjusted the deployment.
The long snake flipped over, causing heavy losses to the approaching fighter jets.
Xiaoman's face was frosty as she quickened her pace, shouting, "Whoever is closest to Snake Eyes, attack Snake Eyes! Attack at any cost!"
More than a dozen fighter jets immediately broke away from the main force and headed towards Snake Eye.
The commander of the long serpent formation panicked immediately, shouting, "Reinforcements! Reinforcements!"
Before he could finish speaking, the left snake eye was struck, reducing the power of the long snake formation by half.
"Now! Break it!"
The Chihun army advanced with unstoppable momentum, annihilating the long snake formation.
"It's over, it's over!" The commander of the Long Serpent Formation felt despair for the first time, collapsed to the ground, his mind buzzing.
Just as the guard bent down to help him up, the fighter jet began to shake violently, and the two were thrown out, crashing heavily into the alloy wall.
At the same time, a focused laser beam pierced through their fighter jet and exploded.
Manha stared at the raging flames, his anger rising to the top of his head. He slammed his fist into the alloy wall. "I was careless!"
"Commander!" The staff officer cried, his eyes red and his voice trembling with sobs, "Brothers, you died unjustly!"
"Launch all forces and annihilate these monkeys!" Manha, his face contorted with murderous intent, pointed at the Chihun army...
