Chapter 76 Annihilation, Complete Control of Elysium

In the outer space not far from Elysium, the fleet belonging to the conglomerate was caught off guard by Fang Heng's fleet. In just one round of attack, all the large warships and dozens of small warships were destroyed.

Looking at the wreckage surrounding their warship, everyone on the conglomerate's fleet was terrified.

"Captain, what do we do?"

"Fuck, what else can we do? Fight back immediately!"

"Yes, Captain."

The captains of the conglomerate's fleet quickly realized that now was not the time to sit idly by and wait for death; they had to immediately counterattack and destroy these warships.

"Turn around, turn around, hurry up!"

At this moment, all the captains in the conglomerate's fleet wished their warships could turn around instantly. These enemy warships were all behind their own ships, and only the rear-mounted weapons could be used to attack. Their powerful firepower could not be used, which made these captains very frustrated.

"Damn it, attack, attack!"

"Captain, our weapons can't penetrate their defenses, and their warships also have shields."

"Closer, closer."

At this moment, the conglomerate's fleet was in complete chaos.

Because the fleet consisted of dozens of conglomerates, their coordination was not very good, which led to some of the escort ships colliding with each other when they were turning.

"boom!"

Amidst the flames of the warships exploding, many of the warships finally turned around.

"Target locked, fire!"

The electromagnetic cannons on top of the warships opened fire, sending a large number of high-speed metal projectiles flying toward Fang Heng's fleet.

"Report, kinetic attack detected en route."

"Activate electromagnetic protection; be alert for enemy high-energy weapon attacks."

"yes!"

At this time, the warships of both sides were relatively close, so after these electromagnetic cannons were fired, they arrived at Fang Heng's fleet in no time.

"High-speed kinetic energy weapon has arrived at the warning zone; calculate the attack angle."

"Calculation complete. Activate shield."

With a burst of electromagnetic waves, the projectiles that were attacking from such a height were deflected by the shield and flew to the side.

Because the angles were carefully calculated, and the distance between the warships was relatively far, these deflected projectiles did not hit the warships on the side.

"Warning: A high-energy strike has been detected en route."

"Activate plasma barrier, take precautions against impact."

These conglomerate warships also carry high-energy weapons, specifically ion cannons, but due to energy limitations, these ion cannons are not very powerful.

"Buzz buzz buzz!" Amidst flashes of electricity, the high-energy particle streams from these ion cannons were completely blocked by the plasma barrier.

"Report: Plasma barrier depletion 10%"

"Good. Keep an eye on it. Notify all warships to fire another salvo, then divide into groups and fight separately."

"Yes, sir."

With the new salvo order issued, a massive barrage of attacks erupted in the next instant, with high-energy weapons arriving in the blink of an eye and destroying a portion of the conglomerate's escort ships.

The kinetic energy attack that followed directly penetrated the electromagnetic shields of these warships, instantly breaking through their armor.

After the first attack, only 20 of the conglomerate's warships remained at the scene, and all of them were damaged.

"Report: The attack was a resounding success; the enemy has lost more than half of its warships."

"Very good. Order the fleet to open fire freely and completely destroy these warships."

"Yes, sir."

As soon as the order was given, multiple warships formed an attack team and charged toward the remaining zaibatsu fleet.

On the zaibatsu's side, seeing the approaching fleet, they were all terrified.

After the previous attack, they realized that their warships were no match for the enemy's firepower, and now they were also far outnumbered. If the enemy rushed in swarming in, they would be lambs to the slaughter.

"Retreat immediately, lure the enemy to the moon, and use the base's defenses to withstand their attack."

At this moment, one of the fleet captains came up with a solution and immediately suggested it in the fleet channel.

"No, we can't retreat. Their warships are faster than ours. Retreating now would be like handing our rear over to them."

"Order a portion of the warships to cover the rear, and we will immediately return to the lunar base to block the enemy from our fortifications."

The temporary fleet commander in the conglomerate's fleet quickly understood the benefits of this suggestion and immediately ordered a portion of the organized escort fleet to stay behind to cover the rear, while the others continued to evacuate.

Unfortunately, Fang Heng wouldn't give them a chance to retreat.

"Captain, they're trying to escape."

"Activate the jump and stop them."

"Yes, coordinate positioning successful, jump initiated."

With a flash of light, several squads disappeared from the spot and reappeared on the enemy's retreat route.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Several ion cannons were fired directly, destroying the frigates that had just emerged and were preparing to retreat.

Wang Yunfeng watched as the combat squadrons continuously surrounded the conglomerate's fleet, nodding in approval.

Although interstellar warfare often involves large-scale battles, small-scale clashes between warships are also common, so it is important to train these captains' ability to fight in unison.

Just then, an operator nearby reported a new situation.

"Report, sir, we have spotted three escort ships emerging from Elysium and rapidly heading towards the moon."

"Looks like these old guys have some ideas too. Order the First Squadron to stop them and try to persuade them to surrender. If they don't surrender, destroy them."

"Yes, sir."

Soon after receiving the message, the First Squadron immediately activated its warp drive and intercepted the three frigates that had not gone far.

Inside the escort ship, the heads of the three major conglomerates looked at the warships surrounding them, their hearts filled with bitterness.

"Boss, what do we do now? Our firepower isn't high enough; we're no match for these warships."

"Boss, the enemy is demanding our surrender."

"Boss..."

At this moment, reports kept coming from the bridge, and in the end, all three frigates chose to surrender.

Meanwhile, the fleet battle was also basically over. All the conglomerate's warships had been destroyed, and a large number of warship wrecks were floating in space.

"Sir, the enemy has been completely eliminated. Please give further instructions."

"Well done. Deploy the engineering fleet to clean up the battlefield and lock up all the heads of those conglomerates to await further punishment."

"Yes, sir."

Wang Yunfeng's side acted swiftly, and as the battle ended, most of the warships returned to the vicinity of Elysium.

A small number of warships formed a new fleet and headed towards the moon.

The previous conglomerate warships all came from the moon, which means that the other side has a complete warship manufacturing center on the moon, so these places must be occupied.

"Notify the engineering fleet to analyze these warship wrecks. Also, order the advance fleet to be mindful of its attack intensity and avoid excessive damage to the lunar base facilities."

"Yes, sir."

The situation of the battle in space was quickly reported to Elysium. This was all deliberately leaked by Wang Yunfeng to remind the original citizens of Elysium that there was now a new leader with enough strength to hold their current position, so that these people would quickly put an end to any improper thoughts.

This choice was made after the data was collected.

After all, even after the new system was implemented and Elysium was placed under martial law, these people, who were sent back to their homes, did not stop receiving information from the outside world.

Now that the outcome of the space battle is known, many people still can't believe it.

"Bitch, are those politicians all useless? They let the other side possess such a massive warship."

"Damn it, Mr. Smith went too far. He's raised a tiger that will eventually turn on us."

"What do we do now?"

"Yes, we can't beat them with force now, and they've taken control of Elysium. If they really want to settle scores, we'll probably all be hanging from streetlights."

An eerie silence fell over the chat channel after those words were spoken.

At that moment, they thought of the capitalists of the past, the images of them being seized by enraged workers and hung under streetlights, and the thought sent chills down their spines.

"Probably not. Besides, we have no way to resist now. Even the conglomerate's fleet was defeated. We ordinary people with little power are no match for these people."

"I heard that the new system will also accept some people from Earth as new citizens, so our quality of life in the future may not be guaranteed."

"What kind of time is this to be thinking about quality of life? We don't even know if we'll survive this."

"Hey, let's stop talking and wait and see. But everyone should be prepared and protect themselves."

The entire chat channel was filled with pessimistic wails.

Wang Yunfeng obtained all this information, but he didn't intend to pay any attention to these people. He wanted to let them linger and be in fear for a while, so that he could be more easily controlled later.

At this moment, he was still focused on controlling the Elysium.

The original Elysium was a paradise that had been built up, so there weren't many guard robots on it. It would take a lot of effort to completely control it.

However, with the robot factory established several years ago, the Terminator has already entered mass production, and there are at least 100,000 units in production.

The system of Elysium has been brought under control; the next step is to take it over.

With this in mind, Wang Yunfeng immediately ordered the robot army to enter Elysium Space to maintain order.

With dozens of transport ships heading towards Elysium, such a large commotion naturally attracted the attention of these wealthy individuals.

"brush!"

As the hatch opened, what appeared before these people was a vast army of robots.

"These are all robots. Are these people preparing for a full-scale occupation?"

Among the wealthy people present, there were also those who could see the situation clearly. After seeing the robot army appear, they knew that everything was already a foregone conclusion.
