    Chapter 518: Victory in the first battle

    No matter at any time, the starship Yi Lexiang is on is in the highest alert state for 24 hours.  This is a hard and fast rule.  This also allowed the Royal First Fleet flagship he was riding on to avoid a devastating collision.  The barrier-type energy shield blocked the hive ships that jumped out from another space. The dark red translucent energy shield was still in a state of energy shock. At least thirty hive fleet ships exploded and disintegrated outside the energy shield.  .  Fortunately, none of them is a hive mothership. Otherwise, no matter how strong the barrier shield is, it will not be able to withstand the shock wave of a close-range explosion of a giant battleship with a diameter of more than five kilometers.

    But not all starships are so lucky.  In order to facilitate the entry and exit of landing craft, most starships have turned off their shield protection. The direct consequence is that the ships of the hive fleet appear directly inside the starship. The two substances are superimposed on each other in the same space position to produce an ultra-high density of atoms.  Accelerating to a level that can trigger a chain reaction is almost the same as detonating a thermonuclear bomb directly inside the ship.

    The radiation and energy waves generated by the explosion filled the starry sky, and the instantaneous electronic pulses caused fatal damage to precision instruments. The fleets of both sides lost control of their respective fleet command systems, communication systems, and space positioning systems in the early stages of contact. In other words,  , at this moment, the combat units of both the enemy and ourselves are in a state of fighting on their own.

    The composition of the hive fleet is very similar to that of the Tyrians. Each hive mothership is stationed with a soul creature, and the small fighters released by the hive are like worker bees bred in the incubation pool of the mother hive.  To a large extent these 'worker bees' rely on instructions from the mother nest to respond.  But now, they can only rely on instinct to fight against human fighters, which undoubtedly greatly weakens their combat effectiveness.

    The situation on the human side is not much better than that of the hive fleet.  Human fighters and mechas dispersed in space are slightly better. After all, they are autonomous and self-aware individual operations. They can make independent judgments based on the situation on the ground in a chaotic battlefield.  But the human starship was completely in chaos.  Any starship is a large and complex system. Different people, different mechanical or electronic units work together to complete a series of complex tactical instructions. A human starship that has lost its command system is almost in a state of chaos.  Semi-paralyzed state.  This is exactly the opposite of the enemy's predicament.  They lost control of the 'sub-machine', while humans lost control of the fleet.

    The command centers of both the enemy and ours realized this almost at the same time.  The surviving hive carriers began to assemble and launched the first wave of attacks on the human fleet in combat formation.  On the human side, Yi Lexiang issued an order to encircle and suppress the enemy mothership through the spiritual power network.  The battle continued in a strange way.

    Human fighter jets circled and flew around the hive mothership, bombing wildly; the hive fleet's 'sub-machine' strangled the human mechas that had not had time to withdraw from the wreckage of the Tyrians; and the hive mothership desperately poured into the human fleet.  With firepower, the key to victory or defeat lies in which side destroys the other side's command center first.  Without the intervention of third parties, this may be destined to be a lose-lose battle.

    However, we must not forget one thing, which is both unbelievable and unbelievable to many people. Some people even sneer at it, but it is impossible to ignore - our noble Emperor is the favorite of the God of Luck.  His appearance and even growth are full of mysteries that are difficult to explain.

    When this unpleasant encounter for both warring parties lasted until the twenty-eighth minute, a huge human fleet appeared on the battlefield.  And the person who leads this fleet is the military commander of the Imperial Alliance Theater - Tyr!

    The emergence of this fleet directly laid the foundation for the victory of the first frontal battle between humans and soul creatures.

    When Yi Lexiang went his own way and led the Royal First Fleet to lurk in the corona area of ??the Delta star to wait for opportunities to find fighters, Tire realized that the young emperor would never give up easily.  Considering His Majesty the Emperor's consistent style, the final battle will continue the style of His Majesty's military adventures.  After thinking about this, he immediately summoned the four main fleets stationed in the core area of ??the Imperial Alliance and rushed to the Tieger planet non-stop, day and night.  Facts have proved that the wise old marshal's judgment of the young majesty was correct.

    Under the encirclement and suppression of the absolutely superior force, the hive fleet of soul creatures persisted for less than six Earths before completely collapsing. The two main fleets conducted a pursuit that lasted for two days. In the end, the first batch of soul creature fleets to reach the human starry sky were all destroyed.  .

    When the news that the last hive mothership was destroyed was sent back to the headquarters, Yi Lexiang had already returned to the capital of the empire, Capital Star, under the escort of Tyr.  What he faced was a group of excited old men questioning him.  Obviously, this emperorHis stubborn decision deeply angered everyone.

    The overwhelming messages of persuasion flew from all over the interstellar to the center of the empire like snowflakes. Among them were senior generals of the former Free Army, as well as important officials of the imperial court who were well aware of Yi Lexiang's details. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that some of them were just  Fake flattery.

    No matter what, Yi Lexiang's life has not been easy these days.  What made him feel most awkward was the sadness in the eyes of Wu Wei, Chen Yatian and others when he saw them every day.  Several important ministers in the empire's power center pointed almost all their fingers at the senior generals who followed Yi Lexiang on the expedition.  This is normal. How can a minister blame His Majesty the Emperor too much?  Since this country only retains one supreme will, the will expressed by this will can only be and should be extremely correct and inviolable no matter from any angle.

    This battle ended with the victory of mankind. For the first time, mankind defeated the invasion of alien creatures on the frontal battlefield. It had a morale-boosting effect on both the people and the army. This was attributed to the wise leadership of His Majesty the Emperor, who was the wise  His Majesty the Emperor led the Royal Fleet to join the battlefield and won a morale-boosting victory for mankind. Such great achievements must never be erased.  But from another perspective, military victory cannot cover up the flaws of the emperor's dangerous situation. The victory belongs to the wise leadership of His Majesty the Emperor, so it seems only natural that the ministers should be held responsible for the problems that arise.  The fleet leaders headed by Wu Wei and Chen Yatian were questioned by the imperial ministers and the royal council. Wu Wei, the highest-ranking officer, was demoted three levels in a row because of this incident, from admiral to major general, and officers at all levels also responded accordingly.  After the victory, the officers at all levels who participated in the battle and survived also had their resentment towards His Majesty the Emperor reaching its peak.

    With the Battle of Tiegel, the news of alien invaders was exposed to all mankind, and the empire's puzzling military expansion campaign finally had a reasonable explanation.  This also relieved the pressure on the Imperial Army to a great extent.  The victory in the first battle seems to prove that the enemy faced by mankind is not so terrible. At least in this war, mankind is not a party without the power to fight back.  There is no doubt that compared to any other act of human war, this military action has received unprecedented support from the public.  Except for a few radical civil organizations, the entire human society is cheering for the victory.

    The war footage deleted by the Imperial Public Relations Department was publicly broadcast on the interstellar network. Whether it was the battleships of the Tyrians or the hive fleet that later entered the battlefield, their external forms were far from those of human beings. Even the most determined ones  Pacifists would also find it difficult to relate to this strange-looking creature.  The video did not mention the heavy losses suffered by the human fleet, but used short videos to express the heroic and fearless fighting spirit of the human soldiers.

    In this regard, the liberal media, which is always known for its sharp comments, unexpectedly did not make too many remarks.  People who have experienced several years of brutal civil war are already familiar with the official propaganda methods, and are also well aware of the heavy price that the human interstellar fleet may pay after the exciting battle images, but these have not affected the general public.  There was a new wave of military recruitment throughout the empire.  Recruiting offices in various administrative stars were crowded with people eager to join the army.  The empire's top officials were naturally very happy about this.

    However, for the imperial ministers in high positions, this battle is more than just a victory.

    ¡°The problem we face is that we cannot use the experience gained in one battle directly in another battle!¡± Tire said with doubts on his face while sitting in the empty conference hall.

    He is the only important official sitting in the conference hall with his true identity.  'Escorting' His Majesty the Emperor back to the Capital Star, he stayed here temporarily and did not return to his theater headquarters.  Several important court officials who were able to influence Yi Lexiang had realized that without them by His Majesty's side, it would be difficult for others to influence His Majesty's decision.  Those senior officers who had been fighting under Yi Lexiang almost obeyed all the decisions of His Majesty the Emperor, and it was impossible to restrain His Majesty the Emperor's behavior.  For this reason, the ministers decided to garrison the capital star in shifts. Although the effect of doing so may be minimal, it is always better than nothing. At least they can get the news about His Majesty the Emperor's whereabouts the fastest, instead of being like the one above.  Same thing every time, they were not notified until the royal fleet left the capital star.

    "Our battle damage rate is mainly concentrated on the early probing attacks on alien warships. If this is not taken into account, the battle on Tiegel Star can be regarded as evenly matched. This problem will continue to trouble us in future battles.  "Thomas Wang in 3D Image fully agrees with Till's opinion.
