Chapter 151 Plowing the Court and Sweeping the Cave
“Commander, the radar system has detected the flagship of the Zerg mothership group and has locked onto it. Please give instructions!” Han Peipei on the side reminded.
“Hurricane removes engine restrictions and enters extreme speed mode. Enters the hive carrier group. Charge all main and secondary guns. Fire at full power with close-in defense guns. Activate the auto-aiming system. Lock the enemy flagship with the quasi-T5 star destroyer gun. Switch to cluster mode. Lock the main and secondary guns with the T4 hive carriers in the hive carrier group.”
Feng Mo issued a series of orders, and the Hurricane removed the engine restrictions and instantly entered the top speed mode, with the speed directly increasing from 300 knots to a stable top speed of 490 knots.
Then it rushed towards the enemy’s flagship like a sharp arrow. With its terrifying speed and a large number of close-in defense guns firing at full force, the Zerg motherships could not stop this sailing arrow. The biological force fields of a large number of T3 Zerg motherships were broken, and their biological armor was shattered by the close-in defense guns.
Seeing that the distance to the flagship of the mothership group was getting closer and closer, Feng Mo calmly continued to issue orders:
“Quasi-T5 Star Destroyer Cannon fired! Targeting the enemy flagship, main and secondary guns are fully charged and fired immediately, no need to ask for permission.”
The orange ball of light representing the star destroyer at the bow of the Hurricane turned into a huge orange light column and suddenly shot towards the target flagship. In order to avoid what happened just now where the flagship of the mothership group used an ordinary T4-level hive mothership as a meat shield, Feng Mo deliberately switched the star destroyer to cluster mode.
The orange beam of light moved forward, piercing through all the Zerg motherships that blocked its way, reducing them to ashes, and in an instant it arrived in front of the flagship of the Zerg mothership group.
Even if the flagship reacted and opened its huge mouth to spray out the biological plasma cannon, it was of no avail. The orange beam of light directly pierced through the biological plasma cannon, and then heavily bombarded the biological armor of the flagship of the mothership group, tearing it apart.
“Report, the flagship of the Hive Mothership Group has been destroyed, please give instructions!”
“Well done, main and secondary guns are firing freely, target the T4 hive carrier!”
At the same time, just as Feng Mo was attacking the flagship of the Zerg mothership group, four T4 Scorpions quietly lurked behind the Zerg mothership group. After revealing their bodies, they fired one interstellar missile after another, carrying various torpedoes to bombard the most densely populated areas of the Zerg mothership group.
The commander of the Chongming Fleet, Wang Xuefeng, was no ordinary novice. He would naturally seize this rare opportunity and immediately gave the order:
“All starships of the Insect Fleet advance forward. The aiming system locks onto all enemy T4-class Hive Motherships. Charge the main and secondary guns and prepare to fire!”
After an order was issued, the remaining 300-odd starships of the Insect Fleet all moved forward and engaged in close combat with the Insect Hive mothership group. At this time, it was a fight of momentum. You are not afraid, and I am even less afraid of death. Let’s see who dies first.
It was obvious that the Zerg Hive Mothership group had lost the leadership of the flagship and chaos had occurred. Many T4-class Zerg Hive Motherships took over the command but could not control all of them and could only fight on their own.
The Insect Fleet seized the opportunity, fired its main and secondary guns at the same time, weaving a huge laser net, destroying a large number of T4-class Zerg Hive Motherships. The aftermath of the explosion directly affected some T3-class Zerg Hive Motherships.
At this time, the Hurricane’s main and secondary guns continued to fire after cooling down, the radar system locked, the laser cannon bombarded, and then the Zerg mothership was torn into pieces. It was that simple, and the battlefield had become one-sided.
This is the way to deal with large swarms of hive carriers, either saturation bombing or single-point assassination of the flagship to cause command confusion. Of course, conventional methods are still used for large swarms of tens of thousands of hive carriers. Because the flagships that usually command such swarms are T5-class hive carriers, which are extremely powerful, and the Hurricane alone cannot assassinate them at all.
“Your Excellency the Duke, thank you again for taking the time to support the Chongming Fleet. If there is any need for us in the future, as long as you give the order, Wang Xuefeng and the Chongming Fleet will be there without hesitation.”
At this point, the overall situation for both parties had been decided. Wang Xuefeng no longer needed to personally command the matter of beating the downtrodden dog, and could just leave it to his deputy. So he spoke sincerely to Feng Mo on the other end of the video.
Feng Mo smiled and waved his hand, saying, “You’re welcome. You and I are from the same faction. There’s no need to be so distant. You don’t need to call me Duke or anything like that. Just call me Sir.”
Feng Mo’s words made Wang Xuefeng very happy. This was already a sign of respect for him. Ever since Gu Jun established Feng Mo’s prestige in the Yunshan Building in the Star Network Space, no one in the Yunshan Empire’s military dared to call him by his name, because Feng Mo was too young and of too young a generation. Calling him by his name would always give people the suspicion of bullying the weak and taking advantage of their seniority.
Therefore, everyone called Feng Mo “Your Excellency the Duke” to show respect. Compared with “Your Excellency the Duke”, “Lord” is a lot closer in terms of address, which seems more intimate, and also means that Feng Mo regards Wang Xuefeng as his own.
This is the advantage of having a faction. With Feng Mo’s future being limitless, the founding of a country is just around the corner. By then, Wang Xuefeng will have a way out, and if he can’t make it one day, he can turn to Feng Mo.
With the help of the Hurricane and four T4 Scorpions, the Insect Fleet took more than six hours to annihilate the entire Zerg mothership group and defend the safety of Planet Z012. After the war, Feng Mo packed up all the corpses of the interstellar Zerg with the help of Wang Xuefeng.
For this purpose, Wang Xuefeng also dispatched three T3-class interstellar transport ships from the Chongming Fleet to help Feng Mo transport the corpses of the interstellar Zerg. Feng Mo accepted this favor.
On the way back to the Hurricane, Feng Mo called Gu Jun via video. After the video was connected, looking at Gu Jun’s tired face, Feng Mo asked with concern:
“Uncle Gu, please take care of yourself. Yanyan is still waiting for you at home.”
After hearing this, Gu Jun smiled calmly and said, “Your video call must be up to no good this time. Do you want to ask about the Xuanwu Interstellar Fortress?”
Seeing Feng Mo nodding obediently, Gu Jun said with a somewhat helpless look:
“This time, the Zerg launched a large-scale attack. I don’t know if they took the wrong medicine or what, but the attack force is the strongest ever. There are more than 5 T5-class hive motherships alone, which is more than the T5 starships of the three T fleets combined.”
“However, the biological starship still has certain flaws. Its attack and defense methods are too simple. It is still a little worse than the federal military fleet. The fortress has been defended, but the situation is not optimistic. The interstellar Zerg is still sending more troops.”
After hearing this, Feng Mo asked solemnly, “Uncle Gu, doesn’t the Federation have any good plans?”
“I knew you would ask this. After the Northern Theater reported to the Federation, it held meetings for three consecutive days. The Federation is organizing a T5 fleet to launch a complete sweep of the Zerg!”
“This operation will be jointly participated by the two central empires of Tianqi and Huiyao. A total of thirteen T5 fleets will be organized, of which two will be provided by the three major fleets of Yunshan Empire, five will be provided by the Northern Theater, and the remaining eight will be provided by Tianqi and Huiyao Empires.”
