Chapter 576, Stealing a Ship

After completing two rounds and launching all the missiles, the mission of the two Blackfishes has been completed.

The impact was very good, and all the ammunition was used up, so there was no need to stay any longer. The aircraft carrier's traction system came into play, and the two Blackfish began to evacuate at a speed that would be impossible for conventional ships.

It only takes a moment for them to be pulled away.

However, before the evacuation was completed, another Blackfish was destroyed.

In the end, only one black fish was successfully withdrawn.

The sacrifice is worth it.

It is absolutely cost-effective to exchange two Blackfish, plus a thousand men on board, for a battleship.

After the Retribution-class ship was destroyed, the door opened wide in front of Alfonzo II.

The next goal is it.

After several more frigates blocking the front were cleared, the most powerful war ark of the Alfonzo Sect no longer had any protection.

All it can rely on is its thick armor.

But how can light armor be enough?

A battleship relies on four methods to reduce damage in a space naval battle: maneuvering evasion, fire interception, void shield/energy shield, and armor.

Without one, the ship's survivability will be greatly reduced.

And now, Alfonzo II is directly missing three.

Because of the attack by the heroic spirits in the ship; because after Du Bo was eliminated, the psychic power almost covered the entire ship, and the neuroprotozoa were killing crazily. The Alfonzo II's maneuvering evasion and fire interception capabilities, greatly The area was paralyzed. After all, for these two items to work, they need to be controlled by people. If everyone has been killed, or the control room and command center have been destroyed, how can it still function?

The void shield was also torn apart by Gu Hang's hands.

There is only one piece of armor left, no matter how thick it is, it is of no use.

After the previous Retribution-class battleship was destroyed, it didn't take long for Alfonzo II to be blown into countless pieces under the constant firepower.

The next target is the only Zhuge-class aircraft carrier in Alfonzo's fleet.

After taking care of it, the next target is a Dragon-Snake-class battle cruiser.

At this point, Alfonzo's fleet was on the verge of collapse.

As of now, the flagship 'Alfonzo II' War Ark, an aircraft carrier, a battleship, and two battle cruisers, a total of five main giant ships have been destroyed.

The price the Alliance has paid for this has so far mainly been various small and medium-sized ships. As a large ship, six Moon-class cruisers were lost; among the truly giant ships, one battle cruiser, the Koroga, was destroyed.

This must be a heavy loss, especially the destruction of the Koroga, which is very painful for the Alliance, which only has eight giant ships in total.

Along with these ships, at least one million sailors and Marines perished.

This is the fleet battle.

When it reaches this scale, the two sides must decide the winner and fight to the death. That's it.

Not to mention, the alliance's fleet strength is at least one level lower than Alfonzo's fleet. It was only through Gu Hang and the Space Marines who joined forces that the war situation was turned into what it is now.

But even if it is reversed, losses are still inevitable.

Even this isn't the end.

The decisive battle is not over yet, especially since Gu Hang has issued an order asking the entire fleet to press forward.

When the distance between the two sides is further reduced, the hit rate of firepower will increase accordingly, the difficulty of evading firepower strikes through maneuvering will also increase, and the overall intensity of the naval battle will further increase.

Of course, with Gu Hang, the Alliance fleet will gain a greater advantage in the entire process.

After all, the entire strategy of the Alliance fleet is essentially centered on utilizing Gu Hang's powerful psychic power. His action of tearing apart the void shields of the enemy's important battleships was like a sign. The fleets would then coordinate their fire to directly and effectively destroy the enemy's main combat power.

Gu Hang was already prepared to bear greater damage, such as losing one or two more battle cruisers, or even one of the 'Hiphorse' or 'Yuhuo Nova' being destroyed.

He was determined to completely annihilate Alfonzo's fleet here.

The Alfonzo fleet on the opposite side clearly felt Gu Hang's firm determination.

Do they have the same determination to fight the Alliance fleet to the end at the cost of annihilating the entire army?

Do they dare to bear all the destruction here just to make the alliance feel the pain?

Their performance is obviously not the case.

The entire Alfonzo fleet has lost its brain and its backbone.

Although there was another Master Sage on the Emperor-class battleship, he was supposed to take over the command of the entire fleet, but in fact, he was not able to do this.

The performance of the entire fleet has not gotten better.

Even, under the pressure from the Alliance fleet, he did one thing: ordered the fleet to evacuate!

This caused an uproar, and it also showed that after the War Ark was destroyed, the only remaining master sage had very weak control over the entire fleet. The captains of some ships did not approve of his orders.

After all, no matter how great the losses are, their Emperor-class battleships are still there, and there is also a Retribution-class battleship, which is not without the power to fight. Even if you can't win, you can't turn around and leave.

Their considerations were not without reason. If they completely withdrew from the battle, they would inevitably be chased by the Alliance Fleet. How many ships would be lost in the process?

Where could they retreat to?

The entire Aozhua Star Region had very limited places to choose from.

Go to Heyang VIII? That was their base, but it had been swept by the Alliance once, and the entire orbital defense system was destroyed. Going there was not much different from being in deep space.

Go to the Wenqi-Wuqi line? That was a good place. If they could reach it, they would not only get a chance to breathe, but also be able to contact the Alfonzo Star Region with the complete defense system on the main transportation route between the Aozhua Star Region and the Alfonzo Star Region, and get help directly from their own base camp.

But...

That was too far.

How many ships could survive the pursuit of the Alliance Fleet and return to the Wenqi-Wuqi line?

No one could say for sure.

There is another place that might be good - Fantasy Moon.

That is where the Fury Flame Fleet was chased and had nowhere to go, so it stayed in the galaxy.

They were originally there, waiting for the powerful Alfonzo Fleet to join them, and they found Fantasy Moon, a place with a relatively complete orbital defense system, to defend it.

At that time, they thought that they only needed to hold on and not be destroyed before the main force of the Alfonzo Fleet arrived, and they would be considered successful. Unexpectedly, the Alliance ignored them and turned around to focus on Alfonzo, the reinforcement.

Now, they may not have received the news of the super-large fleet decisive battle in the Bowen Galaxy.

But in any case, there are Space Marines there, and two regiments, which gives the Alfonzo sect a better way to deal with the boarding battle - although the Fury Flame was also beaten by the Phoenix in the Dragon Eagle Starfield, it is still a Space Marine after all!

What's more, they still have a battleship and a battle barge. With the addition of two large ships, the overall strength of the fleet can also be improved.

However, going to Huanyue is equivalent to going deeper into the Proud Claw Star Region, and the retreat will become more slim.

After joining the two war groups of Fury Flame and New World Torch, which have been driven away like dogs, can they regain the upper hand in the confrontation with the Alliance?

I am afraid it is still not possible.

How about a battle barge plus a Retribution class compared to a War Ark plus a Retribution, a Zhuge and two Dragon Snakes?

Didn't the Alfonzo Fleet in its heyday get beaten up?

If the psychic pressure brought by Gu Hang cannot be resolved, then strengthening the fleet's strength is meaningless. Now the captains of the Alfonzo Fleet are fully aware that Gu Hang's strength is enough to level the strength of the fleets of both sides.

Unless the fleet can be strengthened by two levels, even without the Void Shield, it can crush the Alliance Fleet, otherwise it will not win.

Each choice was difficult, the captains' ideas were not completely consistent, and the only remaining sage of the main profession did not have enough prestige to unify all different opinions immediately and quickly after the destruction of Dubo and the War Ark, and let everyone follow his orders...

These factors added up, and the chaos of the entire Alfonzo fleet not only showed no signs of improvement, but became worse. The fleet's will was divided. A small part wanted to continue fighting to the death, and the other part could accept retreat, but the direction of retreat was disputed.

During this process, the Alliance Fleet did not rest at all, pressing closer and closer; Gu Hang did not rest either, and the void shields of one ship after another were torn and then destroyed.

At this time, the Emperor-class battleship of the Alfonzo sect no longer had the patience to continue arguing with his colleagues.

The sage on the ship gave the last order to all ships, requiring all ships to follow him to break through, with the goal of Wenqi and Wuqi.

Rather than saying this is an order, it is more like a notice.

The other captains in the fleet continued to quarrel and argue, trying to put forward their own opinions. But the Emperor-class battleship didn't care about anything else and withdrew on its own.

Some warships followed him, but the remaining ships were more shaken and even in chaos.

At this point, no one knew that they could not stay and resist. When the Emperor-class battleship left, it was destined to be a complete failure of the strategy of fighting to the death.

Some captains of ships who wanted to fight to the end, while cursing, could only turn around and run away faster.

The entire Alfonzo sect fell into a total collapse.

They were divided into many directions, forming many large and small groups, trying to escape from the battlefield.

At this point, the alliance was already an absolute winner.

This battle can be regarded as won.

But the war is not over yet.

Victory is only one aspect. After the victory, the sweet results of the battle are the most coveted.

After spending so much effort and paying a high price, how could the Alliance Fleet be content to just stop at "winning"?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, it is very necessary to destroy the manpower of the Alfonzo Fleet as much as possible.

After the Alliance lost the Koroja, the Steel Wing also exploded. There are only six giant ships left. If you really count them, they are actually not as strong as the Alfonzo Fleet. Let them catch their breath again, who knows what changes will happen in the future?

Of course, there may not be a complete Alfonzo fleet now. The fleet has been torn apart as it fled in all directions.

But despite this, the defeated Alfonzo fleet actually still retains very strong strength.

After all, they still have one Emperor-class, one Retribution-class, and six Dragon Snake-class battlecruisers still alive.

Facing such an enemy, the Alliance cannot pursue them separately.

Otherwise, any fleet that dares to act separately, without Gu Hang's assistance, may not be able to withstand the counterattack of the Alfonzo fleet.

It is estimated that in the end, many Mechanicus fleets will successfully escape.

In the case that it is destined to not catch all the fish, then we must try to pick up the big fish.

Those small and medium-sized ships are ignored, and even Gu Hang doesn't think much of the battlecruisers. After all, the battlecruisers are relatively low in value, and they run fast and are not easy to catch.

At the same time, the sustainability of "fishing" must also be considered. Those heading to the Fantasy Moon should be picked up first, as it is close there. If the Mechanicus really let the gang join up with the Fury and the New World Torch, it is not impossible to deal with them, but it will become troublesome.

As for those heading to the Wuqi-Wenqi line, such as the Emperor, they can be put aside for a while.

After all, the journey is long and there is still a long way to go.

Under the guidance of this idea, the first thing that Gu Hang targeted was the largest fleet heading to the Fantasy Moon Galaxy.

This group of mechanical ships was led by the only remaining Retribution-class battleship, and there were three Dragon Snake-class battlecruisers beside it.

The fate of those targeted by Gu Hang was very miserable. One of the three Dragon Snakes was solved first, and the other two saw that the situation was not good, so they abandoned their teammates and ran away.

The speed of the battlecruisers was still fast, and they could not catch up for a while.

However, the Retribution-class ship left in place was short-legged and difficult to run.

After solving the surrounding frigates one by one, only one lonely Retribution-class ship was left.

His void shield had been torn open. If the Alliance Fleet wanted it to die, then even though it had thick armor and powerful firepower, it still had to die.

However, Gu Hang was greedy.

How did the Alliance's only Retribution-class battleship, the 'Nova', come from?

It was stolen!

How could it be justified if it didn't steal such a good opportunity?

In fact, not only this Retribution-class battleship, but also the Emperor-class that fled to the Wenqi-Wuqi line, Gu Hang also thought so.
