Chapter 623, Anxious Premonition

Gu Hang was busy with Aramita, even letting Moro go. After fully controlling Aramita, he also provided generous conditions to those fence-sitters...

All this was to make Aramita as helpful as possible in the next war.

The productivity of the forge world is still secondary. Starports, star fortresses, armed space stations, surface orbital gun fortresses, void shields... These things will actually provide a solid backing, so that when the subsequent battles fall into disadvantages, the party can have a reliable rear to hide in and temporarily avoid the wind and rain.

This is a very cautious approach.

The reason is that Gu Hang has an unspeakable sense of anxiety in his heart.

Even worse than when he dealt with the Dubo fleet.

But obviously, the gap in strength between the two sides was greater than it is now. But that time, Gu Hang was full of thoughts on how to rob ships and increase his own profits; and this time, the enemy has not come yet, and he is full of anxiety.

Why is this?

Gu Hang will not ignore his abnormal emotions.

He is the top psychic. For him, emotions represent a kind of power. Emotional instability represents a harbinger of turbulence.

He has not specialized in prophecy and foreknowledge, and he does not seem to have such talents. However, the highest level of psychic power still allows him to have certain premonitions.

This is an ominous sign.

The future battle may have unusual changes. The pressure of emotions forces him to make all possible preparations before the war.

He does not know what this dangerous intuition means, and he will not give up this military action directly because of his anxious emotions and possible crises.

Not yet.

However, it is necessary to find a way out as much as possible to ensure stability.

...

Facts have proved that Gu Hang's preparations are valuable.

Varuk came with his fleet.

Just like the intelligence obtained by the alliance, the scale of his fleet is two mechanical arks, two battleships, and six battle cruisers, which are all the main forces.

The rest of the small and medium-sized ships are not counted for the time being.

As for the Alliance, the Emperor-class battleships ‘Golden Pass’ and ‘Iron Horse’ were snatched from the Alfonzo sect led by Sage Dubo in the naval battle two and a half years ago.

In addition, there is a Zhuge-class aircraft carrier ‘Hawkhorse’ and three Dragon Snake-class battlecruisers, ‘Yunluo’, ‘Ronglin’ and ‘Yuehe’. The last Yuehe was also snatched in the previous war.

In general, the strength of the Alliance fleet is slightly weaker than that of the opponent, but it should not be weaker by a level.

Not to mention, there is also Gu Hang, a top psychic, with a whole group of storm mages.

In a fleet decisive battle, Gu Hang should not be afraid of the opponent.

But Varuk’s fleet is also showing an appearance of not fearing a decisive battle, approaching the Aramita galaxy step by step.

For the sake of caution, Gu Hang did not order the fleet to leave the galaxy and take the initiative to attack, but stayed at the jump point of Aramita, waiting for Varuk's fleet to arrive, and then take the initiative at the jump point. By the way, there is also a star fortress dragged out from the orbit of Aramita, plus a dozen armed space stations, which can be used as a helper. They can't move, but they can serve as a firepower platform and provide some firepower support in the ambush at the jump point. And if the enemy fleet wastes firepower to attack them, it will be even better.

In short, it is a little help that is better than nothing.

Varuk's fleet did not come hard.

In the star observation of both sides, they can sense that the other side is on the other side of the star tunnel. No one is rash, just confronting.

But soon, Gu Hang received news: a fleet of the Mechanicus came from another star tunnel of Aramita.

This fleet is not strong, and there are only two cruisers leading it.

It was still the ‘ambition class’, the ‘civilian’ version of the moon class. Although it was also a cruiser specification, it was much less equipped on the basis of the moon class, leaning towards a more luxurious and commercial aspect, and was sold to some planetary governors, wealthy people, and wandering merchants. The interior decoration was much more luxurious, but it was cheaper than the moon class, which showed what kind of stuff it was.

However, after all, there were two cruisers, and with more than 20 destroyers and frigates, they appeared on the side, and they could not be ignored.

The alliance also divided a small part of its forces, three moon classes with destroyers, to deal with it from the side.

Did Varuk want to use this method to involve the main fleet of the alliance out and reduce the pressure when it jumped through the astral tunnel? Gu Hang would not give him this opportunity.

However, relatively bad news came.

When the alliance discovered the small fleet, the cosmic observation clearly showed that the Varuk fleet on the other side had already started the astral shuttle. It was expected that after three to four standard Terra days, they would complete the jump and arrive at the jump point of Aramita.

The confrontation is over, and the war is about to begin.

At the same time, the small fleet that had been circling the Alliance's Moon-class ships suddenly accelerated and started a battle with the Alliance's ships.

Logically speaking, the Alliance's combat power must have been superior, but when the battle started, they suffered a great loss.

They failed to stop Alfonzo's small fleet, but instead lost a Moon-class ship themselves.

According to the emergency report, the battle was normal at the beginning, but then, several fast destroyers of the enemy suddenly released a bunch of things described by the Alliance Navy as "spores". These things bypassed the radar detection and fire interception of the ship, and when they were discovered, they were already very close to the ship.

They slowly passed through the energy shield and void shield, and then suddenly accelerated and attached to the ship.

Then, these huge "spores" not only eroded the armor of the ship, but also released poison gas into the ship, as well as a large number of landing troops that were difficult to deal with.

These troops were very strange. They looked like the common modified mechas in the Mechanicus, but they had a lot of flesh and chitin structures on their bodies, and their combat power was quite fierce.

If Gu Hang had not spent a lot of gift points during the previous truce to specially strengthen the strength of a wave of Alliance Marines, he would really be unstoppable.

But despite this, he still suffered a great loss, so that one of the Moon-class ships was destroyed.

The defeated Alliance fleet lost the trace of the small fleet and has not yet found it.

At this time, Varuk's large force is about to arrive!

Originally, according to the observation of the universe, their ships would take another day to arrive, but in the next second, the shadow of Alfonzo's fleet appeared at the jump point.

They deceived the Alliance's observation with some special technology!
