Star Fleet: Age of Lords.

Chapter 287 Counterattack

An hour later, the logistics fleet completed the mission on time, collected all the useful spoils and supplied the starship. Feng Mo and Xing Shuwen also took the opportunity to have a captain's meal.

The Storm Fleet is divided into four levels: commander, deputy commander, captain, and crew. The meal standards used are almost the same, except that the order of serving meals is different. The logistics department will prepare twenty dishes every day, enough for all the crew members.

Feng Mo didn't want to be treated specially in the Storm Fleet. They had all worked hard for him all the way. If he wanted to eat well, he could just ask a private chef to cook for him after they docked, instead of asking for special treatment in the fleet.

However, the salary and welfare benefits of the captain and crew are indeed differentiated, which can stimulate the crew's determination to develop upward.

The fleet continued to move forward, passing through the Reef Galaxy and arriving at the Mohen Galaxy. From here, it was not far from the Star Empire. Feng Mo looked at the star map and finally marked two points on it.

They are the intergalactic space at the edge connection between the Mohen Star Region and the Tianque Star Region, and the intergalactic space reaching the Star Galaxy. These two places are most suitable for ambushes.

If Feng Mo was the organizer of this ambush, he would definitely ambush a large number of starships at these two places to block the Storm Fleet's advance.

After the first battle, Feng Mo gave the video of the battle between the two sides to the young master of the Yu family and asked him to upload it to the star network space of the Star Empire. The title was The Ninth Princess's Return, Series One: Encounter with Interstellar Pirates.

Yes, Feng Mo defined these three ambushing T6 fleets as interstellar pirates. First of all, Xing Shuwen was a member of the royal family after all. If he directly said that it was a fratricide, it would be a disgrace to the royal family of the Star Empire.

The second is to let the citizens of the Star Empire see that the current Star Empire is different from before. Even the princess may encounter interstellar pirates when traveling. It calls on all citizens to speak more, offer suggestions, and use public opinion to force the royal family to take action.

This was an open conspiracy. Feng Mo was not worried at all that the intelligent computer would delete the video, because these princes had no authority. In the Star Empire, the only one who could influence the Star Network Space Intelligent Computer was the emperor of each empire, and it happened that the emperor of this empire had died.

The video caused an uproar as soon as it was uploaded. Since the establishment of the Star Empire, the fleet of interstellar pirates has not been seen in the surrounding areas for many years. Some people with discerning eyes knew the current situation and did not speak out.

However, most citizens were unaware of what was happening in the imperial family and were not active in speaking out. The public opinion on the star network was overwhelming at this time. Even the return of the ninth princess of the empire was ambushed by interstellar pirates at her doorstep. This was a provocation to the Star Empire, a level seven civilization.

The public opinion did not last long. The royal family could not withstand the pressure and issued an announcement that in the next month, it would send fifty T6 fleets to patrol the entire Star Empire and strive to exterminate all interstellar pirates.

The announcement was made, but the fifty T6 fleets have not been dispatched yet. Now all eyes in the empire are on the Storm Fleet that is escorting the Ninth Princess, and everyone wants to see if the Storm Fleet can break out of the encirclement and return to the Star Main Star.

At this moment, an order was issued from the eldest prince's mansion. It was obvious that the strength of the Storm Fleet was being targeted by the three major factions, and none of the three factions wanted the Ninth Princess to come back.

Feng Mo expressed his anticipation for the fleet lying in ambush ahead. He was really looking forward to it. He had not commanded a fleet in combat for three or four years, and his hands were really itching to get going.

The fleet arrived safely at the edge of the Mohen Star Region. In front of them was the Tianque Star Region. They just had to cross the intergalactic space in front of them. As usual, ten T6 White Nue were the first to enter the intergalactic space. Twenty minutes later, the feedback showed that there was no ambush, so Feng Mo gave the order to continue moving forward.

The Storm Fleet safely passed through the interstellar space and arrived at the edge of the galaxy in the Tianque star field. Next was Xing Shuwen's home court, and the fleet first headed for the star gate.

Xing Shuwen presented the royal symbol, and after a full-body scan, her identity as the Ninth Princess was confirmed. The fleet slowly entered the star gate and was directly teleported to the star galaxy through the star gate.

The Storm Team that came out of the star gate did not head directly towards the Star Main Star, but sailed towards the intergalactic space at the edge of the Star Galaxy.

In fact, Feng Mo sometimes couldn’t understand how these people were sure that he wouldn’t go through the star gate. Was it because he had made such a big fuss before, and they thought the Storm Fleet would definitely fight all the way back?

In this regard, Feng Mo just wanted to say that he was just building momentum and was not a reckless man. To go from the Mohen Star Region to the Star System, one would have to pass through four small star regions on the way before reaching the Star Main Star. Feng Mo could not deduce how many ambushes there were during this period, but there would be no less than twenty T6 fleets.

He is not that stupid and will definitely go through the star gate. If the Storm Fleet really tries to force its way into the four small star regions, then by the time it reaches the Star System, at least half of the fleet will be destroyed.

As for why we are heading to the intergalactic space now, Feng Mo plans to make a counterattack. You guys like ambushes, so I'll rob you. The loss of three T6 fleets didn't hurt you, so he's going to increase his efforts this time.

Ten T6 White Nue ships set off first, followed by the Storm Fleet at a leisurely pace. When they were about to reach the edge of the Star System, they stopped where they were. Ten minutes later, Mello sent back a video and radar scan data.

After watching the video, Feng Mo muttered to himself, "We've been discovered. It looks like the Jiliang can't be used anymore. That's not bad. After suffering a loss, we'll learn how to use technology."

It turned out that after the T6 White Nue and the enemy's five T6 fleets entered each other's radar scanning range, they were detected by the enemy at the first time. The enemy fleet was fully equipped with three technologies: space interception device, warp interceptor, and anti-stealth passive radar, and they were all T6 level.

After suffering a loss and learning a lesson, the Storm Fleet is now in a difficult situation and can only choose to attack head-on. However, Feng Mofei did not retreat, but felt a little excited instead.

When the Storm Fleet was at T5 level, it always fought with fewer troops against more numerous ones. Facing starships that were several times its own number, it never retreated, but instead became more and more courageous. Now the enemy has five T6 fleets and nearly two thousand starships, while the Storm side has less than a hundred combat starships.

However, the enemy does not have many special starships, including only two missile ships and five stealth bombers, not to mention star destroyers and battle stars. Feng Mo is still very confident in this battle.

"Storm Fleet continues to move forward. Merlo, ten T6 White Nue ships return to the fleet and stand by. Fleet star destroyer cannons, main and secondary cannons charge and prepare, missile silos switch to T6 dark energy missiles, Shanhai, Lushu release all interstellar drones!"

At the command, all the energy systems of the Storm Fleet's starships were activated, bright light spread across the ship's hull, and a large number of interstellar drones were launched, hovering densely at the front of the starship.
