It has been less than an hour since the battle began, and the encounter between the giant mecha and the Third Fleet was less than ten minutes. In such a short period of time, only less than a hundred of the Third Fleet's one thousand giant starships were left.
This made the fleet commander-in-chief furious!
"Damn the Liu family!" The commander-in-chief clenched his fists, his face ashen. He remembered clearly that the commander of the Third Fleet was the person the Liu family had asked to gild their reputation before departure.
No matter how angry he was, the battle had just begun and the opponent had only sent out one mecha.
But how should we fight next? The commander-in-chief narrowed his eyes and frowned.
"Immediately let the Second Fleet enter the hyperspace jump and let them capture Mingyuan Star first." After a moment of silence, the commander-in-chief finally made a decision.
Mingyuan Star has limited resources and labor. Although they have obtained a lot of resources through the pre-sale of K223, due to the stepped-up production of K223, they do not have enough time to produce new mechas.
The commander-in-chief believed that Mingyuan Star could only have one such huge mecha, just like the improved version of the Tianjia Shenjiang.
"Humph! Even if you have the power to sink a giant spaceship, what can you do? The power of a mecha is always limited, and Mingyuan Star is your base camp. I don't believe that once you take Mingyuan Star, where else can you get supplies?"
The commander-in-chief narrowed his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed.
After receiving the order from the commander-in-chief, the fleet commander quickly gave an order and the Second Fleet, which was already prepared for a cross-time and space jump, immediately formed a piece of light curtain at the bow. The color of this light curtain was extremely special, with a snowflake shape, and a closer look revealed particles of blue-gray light.
After the light curtain was formed, the 500 giant starry ships of the Second Fleet exerted force at the same time, drilled under the light curtain, and suddenly disappeared.
"Hmm?" Seeing these light screens, Lin Tao recognized them at a glance: "Time and space jump?"
During this period, sub-time and space jumps were called super-time and space jumps. No one knew who discovered this technology, and the Interstellar Federation had kept it secret. Lin Tao learned from later historical materials that once this technology was launched, it was immediately promoted vigorously by the Interstellar Federation. The early star explorers were able to discover new planets across time and space, which was also due to this technology.
After Shadow's space technology was thoroughly studied, super-space jump was finally renamed sub-space jump, because this technology, like Shadow, adopted sub-space, and could cross a specific distance in a very short time and reach a long distance.
This technology is extremely effective in the starry sky. After all, the distances in the starry sky are measured in light years at most. If you rely solely on the speed of a giant starry sky ship, it will take an unknown amount of time to reach one corner of the Interstellar Federation and the other end.
"Where is their target? Mingyuan Star? Or Mining Star No. 5?"
Lin Tao frowned as he watched a large number of giant starry ships disappear into the light curtain of time and space.
If it is Mining Star No. 5, it will be easy to deal with, because Mining Star No. 5 has deployed a lot of Extreme Wind Phoenix machines, which also have the ability to destroy giant starry sky ships, and the mecha divisions have also undergone a lot of training. As long as certain tactics are adopted, this fleet can be easily destroyed.
However, this fleet is heading to Mingyuan Star, which is troublesome.
In Lin Tao's mind, the Mingyuan star field is the place where the mysterious star creatures of later generations first appeared. The No. 5 mining star alone has discovered a star creature called Kongli. He dare not imagine what kind of alternative star creatures might be hidden on the Mingyuan star.
What's more, on Mingyuan Star, in addition to Lin Tao's worries, there is also the existence of a special creature called "Shadow".
In order to avoid a fight there, Lin Tao did not make any deployment on Mingyuan Star, so if this fleet really leaped to Mingyuan Star, then Mingyuan Star would have no choice but to surrender.
On Mining Planet No. 5, Lin Tao had already contacted Zheng Kaichou and asked him to try his best to stand up before the battle and raise the white flag of surrender to the fleets of the three major powers. After all, he was a member of the Interstellar Federation, and with him coming forward, the other party should be able to give him this face.
Although he was worried about the direction of this fleet, there was another fleet ahead of him, which was another huge fleet of the enemy with also about a thousand members.
Lin Tao narrowed his eyes, not even paying attention to the remaining spaceships of the Third Fleet, and quickly controlled the huge mecha "Lan" to fly towards the fleet.
The engine was running at full speed for three minutes, but less than a minute had passed.
Lin Tao calculated the distance between the two sides in his mind, and when he changed the energy again, he could still shorten the distance between the two sides to about half.
"Commander-in-Chief, that giant mecha is coming towards us."
The radar monitor saw it and quickly reported it loudly.
"What? Coming towards us?" The commander-in-chief's face darkened. He took a few steps and came to the radar monitor. He glanced at the opponent's speed. He saw the red dot flashing a few times, and the distance between the two sides was shortened in an instant. His pupils suddenly contracted: "So fast."
"Yes, he approached the Third Fleet at this speed before." The radar monitor reported.
"Hmm?" The commander-in-chief frowned and held his chin, muttering to himself like a mosquito: "The destruction of the Third Fleet was an accident."
The Third Fleet was relatively dense due to its uninterrupted attacks, and it also carried a larger number of energy blocks, which led to the near destruction of the fleet after the explosion of a giant starry sky ship.
Now, the First Fleet is carrying warships in a regular manner, and the distribution is relatively favorable. It is absolutely impossible that the entire fleet will be destroyed because of the sinking of one ship.
However, just when he thought of this, he suddenly slapped his head to clear his mind. Now the battle has just started, why is he thinking about the sinking of the Starry Sky Battleship? The commander-in-chief slapped himself, which frightened all the personnel on the bridge. They looked at the commander-in-chief like wooden sticks.
After a burst of anger, the commander-in-chief sighed. What could he blame? He could only blame the destruction of the Third Fleet, which dealt him a heavy blow.
What a pity for the Third Fleet! The commander-in-chief sighed, his eyes tightened, and he immediately made tactical arrangements: "Quickly increase the distance between the ships, prepare to charge the cannons, and immediately move forward to entangle the enemy."
After a pause, he said in a deep voice: "All mecha divisions who died in battle will apply for special casualties, and their families will be given the highest level of injury subsidies so that they can fight with peace of mind."
Thinking of the previous beam attack from the giant ship, which turned many mechas into dust, frightened many mecha masters and even made them avoid fighting, he hurriedly gave orders again.
"Yes." The fleet commander nodded repeatedly, then lowered his head to issue orders through the communication channel.
"Huh?" Seeing the fleet in front quickly distance itself and charging its cannons, Lin Tao narrowed his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth and laughed.
The giant starry sky ship kept its distance to avoid a series of explosions like before, but this was nothing to Lin Tao.
The giant mecha 'Lan' uses the shell of the Kongli mother body, plus the nerve body of the Kongli mother body. Whether in defense or reaction, it is superior to ordinary mechas.
Not to mention other things, the outer shell of the Kongli mother ship alone gives it a defensive power that is no less than that of a giant starry sky ship.
Even the beam cannon would not be able to penetrate this machine if it did not reach a certain energy level.
Three minutes passed in a flash in the fierce battle.
After Lin Tao replaced a new set of energy blocks on the 'Lan' by himself, he looked at the data and suppressed the idea of starting at full speed again. If he did that again, the mecha engine would certainly be damaged, which would be extremely disadvantageous for the battle.
The other side has a thousand giant starry ships, and they are releasing mechas continuously.
Although the performance of these mechas is not high, they are still a bit troublesome when their numbers increase.
Thinking of this, Lin Tao turned on the watch communication.
"Lin Tao, did you encounter any battle over there?"
Although Zheng Tuo had made arrangements in advance, their monitoring conditions were extremely unfavorable. In addition, the number of surveillance cameras was not large, and the battle here had not yet been transmitted back.
"I've already encountered it." Lin Tao replied calmly.
"How was the battle?" Zheng Tuo asked in surprise.
Lin Tao did not answer this question. He frowned and said, "There is a group of about 500 spaceships entering the sub-space channel. I don't know whether they are going to your No. 5 mining planet or Mingyuan Planet..."
"What sub-space-time channel?" Zheng Tuo was stunned: "It's a super-space-time channel, right?"
"That's right, it's a super-time and space channel." Lin Tao didn't realize it for a moment, and he always called it sub-time and space transmission in later generations, and he couldn't change his words for a while.
"How long have they been in the hyperspace channel?"
"Just a few minutes ago." Lin Tao replied.
"A few minutes ago? If they were coming towards us, they would have arrived by now." Zheng Tuo frowned: "If I'm not mistaken, their target should be Mingyuan Star. Lin Tao, do we need to reinforce Mingyuan Star?"
Mingyuan Star is equivalent to their main base. Once it is occupied, future supplies will become difficult.
However, Zheng Tuo obviously forgot that all the mechas participating in the battle were produced by Mining Star No. 5.
"No need, you guys rush to this location immediately." Lin Tao shook his head. He had no arrangements on Mingyuan Star. If the other party really went there, with Zheng Kaichou's personality, he should have led the planet to surrender by now.
Lin Tao's plan at this time was to destroy the giant starry sky ship first, and then turn around to attack the giant starry sky ship over there. Moreover, the fleet in front of him had already occupied a favorable position. No matter how strong his machine was, it would take at least a lot of time to destroy the opponent.
At this moment, he planned to let Zheng Tuo lead the Extreme Wind Phoenix over and attack together.
The Jifeng Phoenix uses a soaked Kongli shell, which has a certain defensive capability. Coupled with the trained mecha masters and performance superior to ordinary mechas, it also has a certain effect on these giant starry sky ships in front of it.
