Grey Bear Fleet - Flagship
"Lord Grey Bear, the Azure Kite has entered the designated interception zone according to the planned schedule. Other fleets responsible for interception have already entered their designated zones." The flagship captain looked at Lord Grey Bear on the big screen.
Lord Grey Bear nodded with satisfaction: "Good, send out the order. Prepare to attack Serra Star, I'll be waiting for your triumphant news on Grey Bear Star."
"Yes."
The flagship captain stood up straight.
"Captain, I have a question." The secretary officer next to her couldn't help but speak.
"Speak."
"Why are all the fleets hired for this interception are so unremarkable? Especially the Azure Kite fleet. This fleet is so poor that they only have one T1 level interstellar carrier.
Leaving the interception task to them, it is highly likely that they will fail. And we gave them triple the usual pay! With this money, we could have hired three times more troops!" The secretary officer asked.
The flagship captain looked at Serra Star outside the window, she said with a sinister smile: "Who said I wanted them to succeed? The result I want is for them to fail, to be completely destroyed.
If they die, who will come to me for the reward? That reward will be ours!
And if they fail to complete the task and leave the battlefield early, not only can we refuse to pay them, but we can also demand a penalty from them!"
The secretary officer was stunned, then she looked at the captain in surprise: "So...you are using these hired fleets to die, so that we can save a lot of money."
"That's right. As for our rear security, don't worry. I have already set aside a part of the fleet, even if they can't hold out until the scheduled time, it will not have any impact on us." The flagship captain said with a light laugh.
The secretary officer gave the flagship captain a thumbs up. This was using the smallest cost to get the greatest benefit!
No wonder she was able to climb to the position of flagship captain in the interstellar female soldier force.
...
"The Azure Kite has entered the combat zone. In ten minutes, Lord Grey Bear's Grey Bear fleet will launch an attack on Serra Star."
"Report, the entire ship is ready, all combat personnel are in combat status!"
Tang Yuan, the deputy captain, dressed in full gear, was standing on the bridge. After waking up from hibernation, in just an hour or two.
She brought the entire battleship 'back to life', and now over three thousand interstellar female soldiers were busy.
Everyone knew the importance of this battle for the Azure Kite.
Ten minutes later.
"Report! The Grey Bear fleet has engaged in combat with Serra Star's defensive fleet!" Qiao Rongrong, the secretary officer, reported.
Tang Yuan, the deputy captain, looked at the countdown on the screen next to her.
Four hours!
Their task was to hold here for four hours, not letting any fleet of the Ivok Kingdom pass.
All she could do now was pray that the fleet of the Ivok Kingdom would come late and the number of starships would be fewer.
Time passed minute by minute, all the female soldiers on the bridge were extremely nervous.
Half an hour after the battle started on Serra Star.
The reconnaissance aircraft sent out by the Azure Kite finally brought back news.
"Report, our reconnaissance aircraft detected a reinforcement fleet of the Ivok Kingdom." The communications female soldier shouted.
"How many enemy ships!" Tang Yuan, the deputy captain, asked this question, her fists were clenched.
Half a minute later.
"Report, the reconnaissance aircraft detected six T1 Short Sword-class interstellar destroyers and four T1 Wolfhound-class interstellar frigates in this fleet of the Ivok Kingdom!" The communications female soldier said.
Ten!
Tang Yuan, the deputy captain, bit her lips lightly.
"Short Sword-class interstellar destroyers, a T1 level light interstellar destroyer, mainly equipped with small energy cannons, low armor strength, but firepower is quite fierce.
Its main task is short-term firepower output, as long as one appears within our attack range, our Azure Kite might be destroyed!
Wolfhound-class interstellar frigates, T1 level light interstellar frigates, fast speed, medium armor, equipped with artillery and short to medium-range missiles.
Its main tasks are escort, patrol, alert, and battle support. Its anti-aircraft guns pose a great threat to our interstellar aircraft.
It is recommended that we take out the Wolfhound-class interstellar frigates first at the beginning of the battle." Qiao Rongrong, the secretary officer, quickly spoke out the enemy's data intelligence.
"Transmit my order, all interstellar aircraft prepare for takeoff. There is no second or third echelon; this is our only chance to fight.
Once our location is locked by the enemy, if even one starship charges towards us, we will fail!" Tang Yuan, the deputy captain, said through gritted teeth.
For a carrier starship without any starship protection, being discovered by the enemy meant death.
"Yes."
Qiao Rongrong quickly passed on the order.
At the same time, the deputy captain's hat was placed in front of Qiao Rongrong.
"Sister Tang?" Qiao Rongrong, the secretary officer, looked at Tang Yuan with long flowing hair beside her in surprise.
"I'll leave the bridge command to you, I'll go fly the fighter." Tang Yuan smiled at Qiao Rongrong, the secretary officer.
Qiao Rongrong, the secretary officer, hurriedly grabbed Tang Yuan's sleeve: "Deputy Captain, how can this be! You can't do something so dangerous."
"Dangerous? Yes, this mission is very dangerous. I remember the computer calculated that we only have a 20% chance of winning.
This mission is my choice, and since it's my choice, how could I let my sisters bear the danger while I hide in the back?
And don't forget, before I became the captain, I was a top-notch interstellar fighter pilot." Tang Yuan smiled at the corner of her mouth, holding Qiao Rongrong's hand: "Rongrong, I trust you with the bridge."
After finishing speaking, Tang Yuan left the bridge without looking back.
All the female soldiers who watched the deputy captain leave were filled with tears.
Qiao Rongrong, the secretary officer, held back her grief: "Now I, Qiao Rongrong, the secretary officer, am taking over the command of the Azure Kite. All interstellar fighters, prepare for takeoff, all within ten minutes!"
"Understood!"
Fighter Hangar
"Move, move. Push all the fighters to the launch bay!"
"Hurry, hurry."
The fighter manager shouted loudly, her voice was about to become hoarse.
At this time, she noticed that there were ten more Grey Wolf-class fighters in the innermost bay.
"Strange? I don't remember there being any more fighters here. Did I forget before?" She didn't care about this, she had the mechanics check the power of these fighters, and if there were no problems, they were immediately arranged for pilots to fly them and prepare for takeoff.
"Someone, drag these fighters to the launch bay too! Hurry up!"
"Arrange a fighter for me."
A voice came from behind. The fighter manager came back to her senses, she saw the person and immediately widened her eyes.
"Deputy Captain?"
Tang Yuan was holding a helmet, wearing a fighter pilot suit, and she said with a heroic spirit: "Now I am a fighter pilot."
