My Empire of Stars

Chapter 97 Trap!

The floating guns floating around the fortress aimed their muzzles at the evading frigates and fired a long-charged attack.

Due to the limitation of its size, the floating guns can only prolong the charging time in order to pursue lethality, resulting in the firing rate of the floating guns being only one-third of the same caliber fortress guns, but it is more flexible.

One by one, the metal warheads passed through the starry sky and crashed into the Imperial Fleet, hitting the Imperial Fleet's shields and flashing blue light.

"Frigates interspersed! Disrupt the enemy's floating turrets' attack!" Liu Yi ordered.

The frigates that were originally rotating around the Imbechi Alliance Fortress turned their bows and flew towards the floating guns and the fortress.

Suddenly! A number of floating mines appeared in the air across the frigate's forward route. The frigates, which had no time to "brake", plunged into the enemy's minefield.

Countless flashes lit up, and the floating mine arrays were detonated by the Imperial frigates that broke into them, and dozens of frigates disintegrated in the explosion.

Liu Yi slammed the handrail hard.

"Damn it, the enemy actually has the technology of invisible floating mines! Why didn't the intelligence mention it? Are those spies all shit eaters!"

Suddenly, several shells fired from the fortress hit the shield of the cruiser he was on, emitting bursts of blue light, and the sound of the shield generator overclocking was also transmitted to the bridge through the hull.

"Cruiser main guns ready, aim at the enemy fortress and start charging." Liu Yi pinched the handrail. The Empire's plan has not yet succeeded, and it cannot be abandoned halfway!

"All weapons fire! Don't stop! Hit me hard!" Liu Yi shouted in the communicator.

Suddenly! A huge metal stick stretched out from the fortress of Imbechi, and as the metal stick split around, it formed a metal cage.

A purple ball of light emerged from the middle of the metal cage, and disappeared after a moment. The metal cage returned to a columnar shape and slowly sank down.

Liu Yi took a look and realized that this was the appearance of the hyperspace trap generator being activated. It seemed that the plan was going to succeed.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, several blue electric lights suddenly lit up next to the fortress.

A few minutes later, several large fleets appeared next to the Imbechi Fortress.

Imbechi's commander Todney laughed and patted his belly.

"Do these idiots from the Empire really think we will be fooled? Haha, they just stepped into the trap we carefully prepared!"

Todney stretched out his tentacles and touched the tentacles on his cap. As early as when the Sith Empire and the Imbechi Alliance established diplomatic relations, the Imbechi Alliance sent a large number of spies to study the Empire's information.

The war between the Sith Empire and the Parker Alliance was the top priority of the research. The routines used by the Empire against the Parker Alliance were clearly understood by the Imbechi Alliance.

For this reason, the Imbechi Alliance even deployed large biological detectors on the border to prevent spacecraft carrying biological and chemical weapons from entering Imbechi.

It was the existence of this biological detector that made Li Mingze give up the practice of using biological and chemical warfare again, and now everyone is transparent. If biological and chemical warfare is used again, it may cause dissatisfaction and resistance from neighboring countries.

After the Quantum interstellar cruise ship massacre, the Imbeci Alliance, which had a deep study of the war between the Empire and the Parker Alliance, instantly realized that this might be the beginning of the Empire's war of aggression!

Knowing that the Empire likes to use the tactic of luring the tiger away from the mountain, the Imbeci Alliance think tank carefully prepared this trap for this situation.

Including the first fortress encountered by the Empire's joint fleet after leaving hyperspace, it was all bait carefully prepared by the Imbeci Alliance for the Empire.

First, use the fleet disguised as a transport ship to support the guards of the Comanche galaxy, so that the Empire believes that there are no defenders in the Waston galaxy.

Then use the captured officers in the fortress to let the Empire let down its guard! Lead the Empire's large forces step by step into the trap carefully prepared by the Imbeci Alliance!

Liu Yi nervously grasped the command knife at his waist.

"AI will calculate the combat power comparison between the enemy and us immediately! I want to know our chances of winning and losing!"

"Calculating, please wait"

"The enemy fleet has 30 cruisers, 206 destroyers, 983 frigates, one space fortress, and 321 floating guns"

"We have three cruisers, 105 destroyers, and 502 frigates left."

"Calculating the probability of winning"

"Probability of winning 8.9%"

"Probability of escaping 98%" The cold voice of AI came from the speakers.

Liu Yi breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could escape, he could join the third and fourth fleets for a decisive battle.

Who knew that the armor of the Imbechi Alliance Fortress suddenly opened to the surroundings, and four purple containers stretched out from it, emitting purple halos to the surroundings.

"Alarm, hyperspace shock detected! Hyperspace engine will not be usable!" The alarm of AI suddenly sounded in the bridge.

Liu Yi's face turned pale. Not being able to escape into hyperspace meant that he had to fight for that 8.9% chance of winning! Even a fool would know the result of such a small probability!

Even if he used an avatar to command the fleet, he would be hanged if he destroyed such a huge fleet in a foreign land. His family might also be expelled to the labor camp of the new colony.

Moreover, there were 170,000 elite sailors of the Empire in this joint fleet. If they were all killed here, how could he go back alive to see their parents, lovers, and children!

At this moment, Liu Yi felt desperate. If he could return to the empire, he would definitely resign. His ability was no longer enough to command such a large fleet!

"Retreat! Retreat to the edge of the galaxy!" Liu Yi gritted his teeth and ordered.

The shipboard AI suddenly appeared and reminded everyone with a red exclamation mark:

"Please stop retreating. According to calculations, once you stop flying irregularly, the probability of survival will drop to 1.2%. Please stop this suicidal behavior!" The AI's voice was so cold that everyone's heart sank to the bottom.

"Fight them! Take down this fortress!" Liu Yi shook his head and said viciously.

The AI ​​reappeared and attacked again with a cold tone:

"The enemy fortress has stopped the power supply of all weapons. According to the energy distribution map, they have concentrated the energy on the fortress's shield and super-time jammer."

"According to estimates, the enemy has a shield composed of floating guns and enhanced energy, which can block our attack for 30 minutes. During this time, we will be under the firepower coverage of the enemy fleet."

"It is estimated that the number of surviving warships is only eleven destroyers. Your flagship and the other two cruisers will be sunk by concentrated fire."

Liu Yi angrily smashed the console and yelled:

"This is not okay! That is not okay! Are we just waiting to die!"
