Chapter 307 Counterattack
Four beams of cyan light appeared from the side and rear of the enemy's flagship, whistling as they flew toward the rear of the flagship.
Faced with the sudden attack, the long-prepared enemy reacted quickly, with four layers of light blue ring shields appearing at the point of contact, surrounding the main ship's own light purple shield.
In an instant, the beam of light made contact with the shield, causing a violent explosion. The four light blue ring shields only lasted for a few seconds before turning into fragments.
"Enemy shield effectiveness reduced."
Faced with the whistling missiles, the enemy flagship could only continue to turn to port in an attempt to avoid torpedoes launched from behind and shells coming from the starboard side.
However, this struggle was futile. The human ships were all far beyond the design standards. Their smaller hulls, coupled with sophisticated and powerful propulsion, allowed them to turn much faster than the enemy flagships, which were damaged and had limited power.
Moreover, the battlefield was surrounded by fixed weapons deployed by Lorraine and others, so no matter which way the enemy flagship turned, there would always be a fixed weapon in one area that could hit the vulnerable area of the shield.
Faced with this outcome, the enemy's main ship's behavior changed once again. It stopped turning to avoid fire and launch 14 small gunboats and 40 carrier-based aircraft.
Subsequently, two stealth attack ships, which had not yet completed repairs but whose power systems had recovered to 80%, detached from the main ship, activated their stealth systems, and entered space.
Faced with two attack ships that had completely disappeared from radar, the group, having gone through numerous exercises, naturally knew a clumsy but extremely efficient way to deal with them.
A large amount of fixed firepower was mobilized and, according to Cleveland's calculations, bombarded the area where the enemy attack ship might be operating.
At the same time, a large number of missiles were released by the fleet, streaking forward with azure flames, including long-range anti-aircraft missiles specifically designed to counter space-based carrier-based aircraft.
The eight large warships in space continued to concentrate fire on the enemy's main ship while avoiding the enemy's main ship which was firing at full power. The main attack mission was handled by fixed weapons in nearby space.
With just four salvos, the enemy attack ship, which was preparing for a stealthy sneak attack, was hit by the artillery fire and missiles and was exposed to space again.
At the same time, the Bifang aerospace carrier platform, which was no longer stealthy, launched a salvo and successfully hit the five lasers continuously fired by the enemy's main ship.
Strangely colored fireworks appeared at the intersection of the enemy's lasers and particle beams, then extended all the way towards the enemy's main ship. Even though the enemy main ship interrupted its energy output in time, the explosions that spread along the light still affected the shield capacity and the stability of the main gun's output.
Over the next five hours, a large number of munitions pre-placed in space were consumed, and the enemy's attack ship was hit by a large amount of munitions and was brought to a medium-damage state, forcing it to return to the shield range of the enemy's main ship for repairs.
Meanwhile, the enemy's main ship was also in poor condition. With only laser weapons remaining to support the assault ships, all of our live-fire fixed weapons were concentrated to attack the enemy's main ship. As a result, the enemy's main ship's shield capacity had dropped to the warning level.
The enemy's 40 carrier-based aircraft and 14 small gunboats were being hunted down by two carrier-based aircraft squadrons and a mech squadron. At this time, the remaining 27 carrier-based aircraft and 17 mechs were pursuing the two remaining small gunboats with the support of fixed weapons.
When the frigate 1001 was replenishing its missiles for the 14th time, its ammunition for the 9th time, and its energy for the 2nd time, the enemy's main ship's shields had already fallen to a dangerous level.
A single salvo from the fleet is enough to break the shield.
But at that moment, an unexpected event occurred: 17 blue lasers shot out from the stern of the enemy's flagship, enveloping all ships in the surrounding airspace.
As soon as these lasers made contact with the shields of the ships, Cleveland detected anomalies based on the energy readings of each ship.
The moment the order was given, a second wave of blue lasers appeared from the middle of the enemy flagship, extending to the three assault ships located diagonally behind the enemy flagship, which were covering the withdrawal of the stealth reconnaissance ship.
Twelve lasers precisely pierced through the three assault ships and detonated them after a brief delay.
The two stealth reconnaissance ships emerged from stealth mode, and two blue-painted "missiles" only 10 meters long were ejected from the 2800 mm missile launch units on both sides.
Then, four azure one-way shields blocked the 12 laser beams.
"Calling flagship, two of our ships have detected escape signals, and the three officers and soldiers have been confirmed to be alive. We are heading forward to rescue them."
A hatch opened in the belly of the stealth reconnaissance ship, and a spacecraft resembling a jet tiltrotor appeared in the starry sky, successfully completing the rescue mission before the four shields finished working.
Meanwhile, seeing that the enemy could not break through the four shields in a short time, they gradually changed their attack target, pointing all ten lasers at the stern of the ship at the Bifang space carrier platform.

Xu Yun was not overly alarmed by the rapidly decreasing shield capacity, but calmly issued instructions.
"Disposable shield generator launched, optical smoke grenade launch ready."
[Mirror armor has been deployed, 20 shield generators have been loaded, and 144 optical smoke grenades have been launched.]
The Bifang aerospace carrier launched 12 optical smoke grenades simultaneously from 12 multi-purpose launchers on its front hull. These smoke grenades were filled with various substances that helped to refract and dissipate laser energy.
Immediately afterwards, 10 shield generators were launched from the missile launch unit, forming the first shield among the shields and smoke screens.
第2批10枚护盾在10秒后弹出，与第1批发射的10枚护盾组成了一面联合护盾，共同抵御着这次雷射攻击。
Just as the other ships were firing in unison, focusing on breaking the shields, the enemy flagship underwent a second deformation at the front, and at the same time, a sharp alarm sounded.
[Warning! High-energy fluctuations detected at the bow of the enemy ship! Attack intensity equivalent to at least a 1200mm electromagnetic railgun.]
[WARNING! The energy fluctuation is still increasing; the intensity of a single attack is estimated to be equivalent to an 1800mm composite electromagnetic railgun!]
"Shield generators fire in unison!"
The flagship, two heavy frigates, and a destroyer launched a single-use shield generator, while the two improved frigates, 1001 and 1002, were closing in on the nearby flagship and destroyer 2001.
Just as the ship equipped with 2800mm launch units was preparing to deploy the second batch of disposable shield generators, the enemy ship's main gun at the front of the hull opened fire. Five lasers were emitted from the front of the enemy ship's main gun and the four split structures at the front of the hull, converging into a single laser that struck the shield generator launched by the flagship.
【护盾容量消耗速率异常，倒计时5、4、3、2、1、0。】
As the countdown ended, the two one-way shields in front of the flagship shattered suddenly.
