The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons Chapter 74

  Chapter 74 Accession and Repentance

  Gu Shenzhou replied:

   "The Crimson team plus the Horn of Liberty, the Halo team and the Aquarius team also agreed to join, and there are some large and medium-sized teams that will come over soon."

   "Aura?"

   Li Qing immediately pulled his face down, and immediately refused:

   "Forget it, we won't go."

"Uh"

  Gu Shenzhou smiled bitterly and said:

"I know that you, Jialan, have conflicts with the halo, but this operation is led by our Crimson and free will. Besides, you really don't want to participate in such a good opportunity? If we can succeed, we will be the first team to attack the reef lair , 12 hours of plundering, the meritorious service is enough for all our teams to be promoted to the Legion."

"I remember that your Jialan's previous operation was not very successful, and there were tens of millions of people short. If you can participate in this operation, it will not be a problem to easily plunder hundreds of millions of people. Not only can you be promoted to the legion, but the excess population will also It can make you a lot of money.”

   "In this way, I will separate you from the halo, not on the same side, and not performing the same task, how?"

"Can."

  He was so straightforward that Gu Shenzhou was speechless, and continued to laugh:

   "If that's the case, then I'll count you as one, and I'll pull you into the channel later."

"Row."

  The communication was turned off, Li Qing pursed his lips.

  The refusal just now was of course just a show, how could he not be interested in such a crazy plan.

  In fact, after Gu Shenzhou spoke out about the legacy of free will, he became very interested in this operation.

   It is true that the risk is explosive, but if this operation is really successful, the reward will also be explosive.

   Their behavior is equivalent to a successful sneak attack on Jinmen, a full 12 hours of plundering, God knows how much they can plunder, it is a real good opportunity to get rich,

   Two of the three most critical points have been resolved, and the only problem is whether they can successfully enter the reef lair.

The Crimson team and the Free Will team are the top five large-scale teams in the outpost, and the Halo and Aquarius teams are also in the top ten. In addition to attracting some large and medium-sized teams such as Jialan, it is indeed possible to gather a team that has the potential to attack. Enter the mighty fleet of the Reef Lair galaxy.

   "It's crazy."

   "But I'm also crazy."

  Li Qing shook his head, accepted the invitation from Gu Shenzhou, and joined a communication channel.

  As soon as I entered, I saw Gu Shenzhou speaking in the channel:

   "Welcome the Jialan fleet led by Li Qing, the deputy head of the Jialan team, to join our operation!"

  The channel was a little quiet, and people continued to express their welcome.

   Then, there is no more.

  No matter what time it is, they always respect their strength. Although their current fleet is not bad, they can only be at the bottom of this team. The welcome is only polite, don't take it seriously.

   Li Qing announced the matter in the Jialan team channel, Wang Yanqing and others did not object, but reminded him to be careful of being used as cannon fodder.

  Li Qing knew in his heart, whether such a crazy action could succeed was another matter, even if it could be successfully attacked, a large number of teams would inevitably be consumed as cannon fodder.

   This is inevitable. A group of people is divided, how many people are happy to be divided, and the team that dares to participate knows it well, but who is consumed as cannon fodder depends on its own ability.

  No one spoke in the joint team channel, but there were quite a few people speaking in the area channel where the base is located, but not from the joint team, but from many large and medium-sized teams staying here.

   Not all teams agree. After all, Gu Shenzhou's plan is too crazy, and the success rate is really not very high. Some teams with insufficient capital and courage will not participate.

  As time passed, more and more teams came gradually. About half a day later, a huge fleet consisting of more than 60 battleships and more than 600 small and medium-sized warships rushed over. Gu Shenzhou welcomed the halo team on the channel.

  The old acquaintance Ye Xiao was leading the team. Li Qing narrowed his eyes and observed carefully.

  Ye Xiao has also successfully ascended spiritually, but it is not clear if there is a psychic saint.

  Under normal circumstances, the number of souls he plundered is not enough to condense the psychic saint, because the condensing of the psychic saint does not mean that enough souls can be gathered, and there are other strict conditions.

   Otherwise, if a random psychic could easily condense a psychic saint by killing hundreds of millions of people, this thing would not be so rare.

   But Ye Xiao's situation may be uncertain. He has a top-level relic related to psionic energy, coupled with a large number of souls, it is not impossible to do it.

if so.

  Li Qing's eyes moved slightly. As more and more teams joined, he found that according to the current team strength, the probability of being used as cannon fodder increased infinitely.

   "This can't work!"

Originally, I thought everyone would rely on their own abilities and show some strength to be valued, but now it seems that Yijialan's strength can be easily given up as cannon fodder. The key is that the strongest team still has the enemy of halo. With their relationship , the possibility of halo tricking is infinitely high.

  Li Qing became a little cautious.

   Another half day later, the Aquarius team rushed over. Li Qing carefully observed the fleet and found that its strength was stronger than the halo.

   Another day later, the last large-scale team rushed over brilliantly. Its strength was not much different from that of Aquarius. It had a total of 62 battleships and nearly 700 small and medium-sized battleships.

"Well!"

Not to mention other things, just Crimson plus free will, the five teams of Halo, Aquarius, and Brilliant have 340 battleships in total, and nearly 4,000 other large and small battleships. The overall strength is almost equivalent to one-tenth of a team. Brigade-class fleet.

In terms of ship capacity, it is close to a quarter of a brigade-class fleet, but the problem is that a brigade-class fleet has several flagships, and stronger brigades may have a Titan super-flag. T-slot doomsday main guns are amazingly powerful. Conventional battleships are fired one at a time. There is no flagship of the same tier, and the number of player battleships can be multiplied.

These five teams accounted for five of the top ten teams in the outpost base, plus other large and medium-sized fleets can always make up about 50 battleships. If there is a super commander to command, it is not impossible to defeat the sand battleship head-on. A formal brigade-class fleet of the Tower Civilization.

  If the fleets stationed by the Shata Tribe United Civilization are slower to respond and support, it is really possible to attack the Lair of the Reef galaxy.

so.

  Li Qing thought seriously, and said in the Jialan team command channel:

   "I think this operation is too risky, so let's not go."

  Many people in the team were stunned for a moment, and Yan Chengping immediately said:

   "I have long felt unreliable. This action is too crazy. I don't think the success rate is high."

  Wang Yanqing also said:

  "The success rate is actually another matter. The main reason is that we are not strong enough, and the strength of Halo is several times that of ours. I am afraid that something will happen later.

  Ding Youran didn't say anything, just nodded in agreement.

   As for the rest of the team, they don't have any opinions. Anyway, the biggest cores agree, so it doesn't matter if they have opinions or not.

   Li Qing contacted Gu Shenzhou and said directly:

   "Sorry, I'm withdrawing from this operation."

  Gu Shenzhou unexpectedly said:

   "Are you because of the halo? I will separate you from the same operation."

  Li Qing shook his head and said:

"I, Jia Lan, are too weak. Ever since Ye Xiao betrayed and took away nearly half of the team members, the overall strength of the team has dropped to less than 50 people in the outpost base. If this operation loses too much and has too much impact on the team, I thought about it comprehensively and decided not to take the risk.”

  Gu Shenzhou was speechless, Li Qing continued:

   "Ming people don't talk dark words. We are actually competitors. Your strength is far stronger than ours. If something happens when we enter the depths of the starry sky, we have no room to refuse. I am also afraid."

   This was almost clear from Chi Guoguo, Gu Shenzhou opened his mouth, but finally stopped persuading, nodded and said:

   "Since that's the case, I won't force it. Goodbye!"

  After speaking, Li Qing received the news that he was removed from the team.

   Smiled, he posted the message in the team channel.

   "Then we have to play by ourselves, brothers, get ready, let's go out for a walk."

   "Good!"

Although he was quite curious about Gu Shenzhou's actions, if he was alone, he would go there even if he was properly used as cannon fodder, but now that he is the leader of the team, he has to consider the overall situation when doing anything, he can't just be curious Take your men on an adventure.

  If you want to be a leader, you have to look like a leader.

  Although he is confident that nothing serious will happen if the waves fly, but after careful consideration, it is better to be on the safe side.

   "I updated the star map in the past two days. There is an enemy mining base 5 jumps north from here. There is a defender three times the size of ours. You can go around."

  In the afternoon of that day, the fleet left the hidden base and sailed into the starry sky.

  As soon as they left, Ye Xiao received the news of their departure. The two brothers Lu Qing and Lu Yi asked in the private chat channel:

   "Shall we follow up?"

  Ye Xiao thought about it, shook his head and said:

   "We are about to set off here, and we don't have enough time."

   "That's their luck."

  Although the distance is only five jumps, because they cannot jump, there are many interception systems inside the galaxy that cannot directly pass through the galaxy at sub-light speed. They can only travel at sub-light speed outside the galaxy's gravitational well.

  But there are also interception systems in the Kuiper belt outside the gravitational well, but they are not as dense as in the galaxy. The key point is that the interception system has no defenders and is blocked at most.

   Every time the intercepted fleet stops, it has to re-adjust the angle and fly again.

  Obviously only five galaxies are separated, but it took them half a month of non-stop stop and go before arriving at the target galaxy.

   "This is the galaxy."

  Li Qing didn't have any special arrangements, just waved his hand:

   "Hit it head-on."

   Many player teams have passed by before, and they have roughly figured out the defenders here.

   It is difficult for other small teams to take down this mining base without much damage, but for Jialan, who has the Servant of Light as the commander, this is not a threat.

  The fleet directly passed through the gravitational well of the galaxy at sub-light speed, and was blocked by the interception system at intervals to escape from the sub-light speed. Then, several shots destroyed the interception system, and after a little preparation, the hyperspace engine continued to enter the sub-light speed.

   Still stop and go like that, very annoying.

  It was only one galaxy, and it took them almost five days to travel through a distance of less than forty astronomical units and arrive at the mining base in the asteroid belt on the outer circle of the galaxy.

It was a mining base built on an asteroid with a diameter of more than 400 kilometers in the asteroid belt. Countless mining ships and mining stations were distributed within hundreds of millions of kilometers around the base, and densely packed transport ships were in the dense asteroid belt In and out.

   They came all the way violently, the mining base had already received the news, and a fleet nearly three times their size was standing in front of the base.

  Li Qing turned to look at Li Yuan, servant of light, and said:

   "Use kite tactics to minimize your own losses."

  Li Yuan nodded:

   "Your will is my will."

   Without hesitation, he took over the command and began to give orders.

   This was discovered by Li Qingxin. If he didn't have an order, Li Yuan, the servant of light, would default to fighting head-on.

   It's okay if you have the upper hand, but if the enemy is strong enough, it's a disadvantage to beat yourself like this.

  No matter how talented the Servant of Light is, facing an enemy that is several times stronger than him in a frontal battle will inevitably cause a lot of damage. Although the loss is really small compared to the results of the battle, it is a loss in vain.

  If he has clear instructions, Li Yuan will give priority to his instructions.

  For example, his instruction now is to use kite tactics to minimize his losses.

   In the original, he would not hesitate to use the small boat as cannon fodder to resist enemy firepower and try to ensure the survival of the big boat.

  Now he will use the big boat to resist the firepower that can destroy the small boat on the spot. If the small boat is damaged, it will be pulled back for repairs, instead of pulling forward without hesitation to block another shot like before.

   It may not be as effective as frontal tactics in terms of killing the enemy, but it can maximize the survival rate of your own boat.

   It is worth mentioning that Li Yuan is not rigid in the implementation of tactics. If the loss of a battleship can be exchanged for more battleships to survive, he will still drag it to death without hesitation.

At the beginning of the battle, the entire fleet was set up under Li Qing's precise command of each frigate, and then used the advantage of a range that was more than twice that of the opponent to remotely focus on the opponent's main ship. , all battleship captains will immediately receive movement distance instructions accurate to meters.

  Hundreds of warships were under his command like arms, moving forward and retreating freely. Li Qing lay on the command chair with his hands behind his head, feeling like he was watching an art show.

  He lay flat with complete peace of mind, the Servant of Light's command ability was stronger than he imagined, so he didn't need to worry about anything at all.

To be honest, the reason why I quit the crimson team before was not because of the halo. With the ability of Li Yuan, the servant of light, he can run even if he can't face the opponent. The key is that their two treasures are too effective. If they were also silenced at the last moment, they would have to be beaten passively.

   Moreover, the function of this relic is just what Gu Shenzhou said. God knows if there will be other functions.

  Normal thinking would not tell all the cards in his cards. It is not surprising that such a strong legacy has one or two extra abilities.

   It was quite quiet in the fleet channel, and everyone listened to Li Yuan's instructions attentively. His super command ability had already conquered them and convinced them.

  Although the Shata Civilization Fleet stationed at this mining base is three times larger than theirs, they are completely helpless in a frontal battle. The battle started for half an hour, but they didn't fire a single shot, and they have been under range suppression.

   Servant of Light Li Yuan's innate talent +50% range, psionic entity (light sublimation) +30% range, and level 20 naval command +60% range, a total of 140% additional range.

  The aura of innate talent can suppress the opponent's range by 10%, and the aura of the psionic entity can suppress the range by 20%, combining a range bonus of 140% and a range suppression of 30%. What is the concept?

  The range is inferior, the speed is inferior, the attack power is inferior, and even the command ability is completely suppressed.

  In less than an hour, the defenders of the Shata Civilization who had been passively beaten withdrew to the base in desperation, trying to defend the base.
