Chapter 53: Battle of Kresh V(2/2)
"The enemy fleet is starting to assemble."
The third eye on the pilot's forehead suddenly shone with inspiration. He had already captured the Gith foreign fleet in front of him.
While the [Sword of Glory] launched an attack, a group of warships in the distance began to gather quickly.
The 12 warships of the Kresh Hub Defense Fleet gathered neatly in the direction of the bridge and adopted a typical defensive formation - the "fish group formation".
Four of the ships are located in front, forming a nearly perfect line of defense, while the others form an encirclement behind and flanks.
The strongest battleships in the fleet are located in the center of the array, like a moving fortress, trying to weaken the offensive advantage of [Sword of Glory] with layers of shields and powerful weapons.
These ships emit strong energy fluctuations, and are the most proud warships of the Gith foreigners - the backbone of the fleet composed of high-intensity shields and dense firepower.
The surface of the ship emits a cold silver light, and the bow of the ship is equipped with a huge rail turret and energy cannon, showing a threat that cannot be underestimated.
At the same time, the remote orbital psychic turret on the Kresh Hub also began to operate.
Several huge psychic cannons shot out light, slashing through the void, and launching a fierce counterattack on the [Sword of Glory].
The power of these psychic cannons cannot be underestimated. They can easily tear the shields of heavy ships and may even destroy important parts.
However, in the face of these attacks, the Void Shield of [Sword of Glory] showed strong defense capabilities.
Whenever the psychic cannon hit the hull, layers of dazzling energy barriers will quickly absorb these attacks, and all the energy is swallowed into a bottomless abyss.
The shelling was like waves slapped on an iron wall. Although it was shocked greatly, it could not shake the foundation of the ship.

A red warning screen came from the command template inside the bridge.
The ships of the three Gith foreign fleets had already been assembled, and they were like cold predators.
Although these ships are far less large than those of the Sword of Glory Heavy Cruiser, and the size of the ships ranges from hundreds to thousands of meters, their flexibility, dense formation and ubiquitous air defense firepower pose a powerful threat.
The Gith foreigners fleet ahead is mainly composed of frigates and destroyers. These ships are small in size, but have strong flexibility and can react quickly.
The overall arrangement of ships is compact and widely distributed, with the purpose of using mobility to offset the long-range strikes of cruisers.
As the fleet gathered, strong light began to flash on the surface of the enemy's hulls, and the shield systems of each ship were activated one by one.
Although their shields are not as powerful as the Void Shield of the Sword of Glory, their high-energy plasma shield and magnetic field reaction shield are still enough to withstand most conventional attacks.
Since the four monarchs and some of the stars spread black box technology, all cats and dogs can install "self-developed shields" on themselves.
——They are very grateful to the Four Monarchs for Open Source.
At this moment, the shield surface of each ship's shield flashed with a red halo, like thin layers of energy films, completely wrapping the ships, giving them certain defense capabilities.
These shields may not be able to resist for a long time when facing the powerful firepower of the Sword of Glory, but for smaller ships, it is enough to deal with long-range strikes from cruisers in a short time.
In order to break through the shield system of these ships, either Xia Xiu will take action himself now to suppress one of the fleets with great power units, but other fleets will definitely rely on strategic depth and their own power to speed up and run away, looking for a suitable opportunity to escape.
To find a way to hit and deal with these ships, you must slowly take it.
As for whether the Gith foreign fleet can threaten [Sword of Glory]…
Xia Xiu was not worried at all.
In any case, with the strong protection ability of ships and their own strength, enemy ships are unlikely to pose a huge threat to them.
"Selas, you will be instructed by the entire ship next."
At this moment, Xia Xiu chose to hand over the command to the pilot to avoid excessive concentration of the command.
"yes!"
After taking over the command of the entire ship, Silas made a quick judgment. Considering the large number of enemy ships, he immediately began to choose the appropriate strategy on the battlefield.
"Prepare to adjust your tactics to avoid being surrounded. Choose a favorable battlefield and maintain mobility."
Now, the firepower of cruisers and ships alone cannot suppress the firepower of three enemy ships in one fell swoop, and the firepower of thirty-six ships is impossible.
Therefore, Silas decided to rely on the powerful mobility of [Sword of Glory] to gradually divert the enemy ship from the core area of the Kresh hub through long-range strikes, and use guerrilla tactics to quickly strike when the enemy ship is not yet approaching.
"Start attack and destroy their formation."
Silas commanded the bridge personnel to quickly adjust the ship's weapon system and start long-range strikes.
The main turret of [Sword of Glory] made a deafening roar, and the plasma arc cannon system at the bow of the ship suddenly opened, blasting out dazzling purple energy beams.
Several frigates were directly bombarded with the attack of arc cannons. If it weren't for the multiple destroyers being pushed up, they would have died on the spot.
"Continue to attack, our primary goal is to destroy the ether traction wave engine in the area!"
With the order from the Pilot, the carrier-based missile launcher of [Sword of Glory] was activated again, and dozens of missiles quickly locked in the target.
During the flight, these missiles quietly cut through the silence of the star world and smashed towards enemy ships like thunder.
The standard destroy missile first hit the external shield of an enemy destroyer. Although the shield was not completely broken, the missile's shock wave directly pushed the ship to the edge of the explosion, and then a series of fire and debris splashes occurred.
However, the enemy did not panic.
Through the communication system of the Red Dragon Air Mothership, the commander quickly commanded the fleet to start adjusting the formation and reorganizing the defense line.
The fleets quickly entered a state of combat, and a circular encirclement formed between the fleets, surrounding the [Sword of Glory].
A fleet with a Red Dragon Strike Group began to accelerate toward the battlefield. The Red Dragon Group was ready to launch an air suppression.
Several frigates and destroyers quickly adjusted their courses and approached the [Sword of Glory] in a tight formation.
They intend to use their dense firepower and mobility to force the [Sword of Glory] into the attack range, thus breaking through the shield and destroying the cruiser.
At the same time, the psychic raid fleets equipped with psychic weapons in the distance also began to use their psychic missiles and jamming systems to launch a hidden attack on the [Sword of Glory].
Several purple psychic beams suddenly fired from the battleship's shooting port, instantly crossing the battlefield and pounced towards the [Sword of Glory].
But these attacks did not break through the defense of the Sword of Glory.
The Void Shield flashed with golden light, easily absorbing psionic attacks.
The counterattack of the enemy ships was not shaken at all.
Silas calmly observed the battlefield situation and issued new instructions at the right time.
"Move at full speed, take them and adjust the route."
He directed the ship to change its course, quickly escaped from the encirclement of the enemy ship, and instead launched a new guerrilla war.
At the same time, the cruiser's firepower system did not forget its mission and continued to destroy the space station and traction wave engine near the Kresh Hub.
He and the three enemy fleets were constantly fighting back and tug-of-war, and the enemy ship was just slipped away.
[Silent confession number sent a message, they have successfully penetrated into the hub!]
After destroying all the traction wave engines on the periphery and receiving the instruction from the Colorless Confession Team to successfully sneak into the Kresh Hub, the Navigator no longer loves to fight.
"Prepare to accelerate and disperse enemy ships."
With the order issued, the EVE particle propulsion engine at the head of the [Sword of Glory] suddenly burst out with dazzling white light, and five plasma propellers that were hundreds of meters long suddenly surged into a turbulent airflow.
At the same time, the ether traction engines on both sides of the hull also quietly heated up, and slight oscillation waves swept out.
The huge ship, calm but full of power, began to accelerate suddenly, like a beast freed from its constraints, instantly shook off the bonds of the enemy ship with a strong propulsion airflow.
The three-kilometer-long giant ship does not appear bulky in the universe, but instead shows arrogant domineering due to its huge propulsion.
The ship's super engine was like a huge wave, causing shock in the surrounding space and creating a roaring hollow sound, which made the enemy ships watch from a distance.
The ships of the Kresh defensive fleet and the psychic raid fleet could only watch the giant beast go further and further away with a grievance.
They watched the [Sword of Glory] unabashedly demonstrate a huge acceleration power in the depths of the star world, and the hull disappeared from their sight like a flash of lightning.
The speed of these ships could not keep up with it at all. Even if they activated the powerful propulsion system, they could only appear extremely small under the back of [Sword of Glory].
Even though they launched their full-strength pursuit, their speed was still far lower than the breakthrough speed of [Sword of Glory].
These fleets also did not choose to break away from the control area of Kresh Hub.
If they rashly leave the hub too far, they are likely to be exposed to the enemy's ambush.
