Chapter 364: Unparalleled Merit

Chapter 364: Unparalleled Merit
Many of the guests at the scene have military experience.

Some of them are more interested in history and military affairs. As soon as Tang Long issued the order, these people knew what he wanted to do.

"Attack when the enemy is halfway across the river!" Li Youbin slapped his thigh and said excitedly.

Some other people also told their friends about their opinions.

"They knew there were cannon fodder ahead, so they underestimated the enemy. The moment the battleships jumped out, it was like a car leaving a tunnel, and they didn't dare to make any rash moves. If Tang Long commanded these 1,000 gunboats to attack the jump point directly, it would be a lot of fun!"

On the big screen, after final calculation by the computer, it was found that there were two thousand jump points.

That is to say, two thousand large warships are about to come here by "interstellar hopping". The commanders and soldiers of the self-propelled gunboats here are shocked by this number.

Tang Long said nonchalantly on the public communication screen, "Fight if you can, surrender at worst. Look at the promotional videos of the Silver Eagle Empire, they treat surrendered soldiers very well, better than ordinary citizens in our federation!"

After hearing this, the other gunboat commanders calmed down instantly.

Tang Long also said that although we have to surrender, we can't surrender immediately, because they will lock us up as ordinary soldiers. It is better to scare them and make them think that we are very outstanding and treat us as special soldiers.

After hearing this, the gunboat commanders all found it to be very reasonable.

Tang Long began to assign tasks. A self-propelled gunboat was responsible for two jump points. Two torpedoes were set up at each jump point and fired upon his command.

Then he said casually that even the worst destroyer could withstand the hit of two torpedoes!
Inside the venue, many spectators were already looking forward to it, with their lips raised in excitement.

Because they knew that the outcome of the battle would be unprecedented, and the damage would definitely not be as simple as Tang Long said.

While waiting for the enemy to arrive, Tang Long discovered that communication with the Federation had been interrupted.

Fortunately, he was able to contact the powerful artificial intelligence program, which told him the Federation's real combat plan and battlefield. There were 10,000 of these self-propelled gunboats that could kill with one shot, and the military spent ten times the price to buy them...!
"Fuck, they are still evil!"

"I heard that the things purchased by the American military are also ridiculously expensive!"

On the screen, Tang Long said to the artificial intelligence system with a worried look on his face: "Sister, our gunboat is not a substandard product, right?"

The system's anthropomorphic female voice smiled and said, "Don't worry, the manufacturer may have made too much money and didn't deduct it from the cost of the warship. The product is still up to standard!"

Tang Long was relieved now. If the quality of the warship was not up to standard, all his strategies and battles would be in vain!
The scene switched, and the enemy's huge fleet was "space jumping". Tang Long also learned the time when the local fleet was about to "jump out".

"Twenty seconds left!"

After hearing this, Tang Long paused his hand in the air for a few seconds and yelled, "Fire!"

Each self-propelled gunboat fired two torpedoes and flew at full speed towards the space where the enemy had not yet appeared.

"One penetrating torpedo per coordinate, firing rate 3...!"

After this order was issued, another two thousand torpedoes chased after their "brothers".

"All warships, listen up! Start recharging the main energy cannons. The firing coordinates are...!"

Tang Long’s previous strategic plan did not mention the main energy cannon, but at this critical moment, the soldiers would subconsciously obey the orders of the "supreme commander".

After all, the commander of our own gunboat had no objection.

Although these commanders were somewhat puzzled, they did not really think much about it. After all, the "self-propelled gunboats" were too powerful, and they did not think that they would cause much damage to the enemy. They were already thinking about surrendering and the rest of the time.

At this time, more than 2,000 directional explosive torpedoes arrived at the designated coordinates and exploded instantly.

For a moment, more than 2,000 blooming flowers on the screen looked very beautiful in the dark universe.

The federal officers on the warships even whistled excitedly.

But the next second's scene stunned these people. And for many spectators in the venue, it was a long wait.

But in the raging fire caused by the explosion, thousands of giant warships appeared, and they appeared just at the same time as the torpedo exploded.

These warships did not sail out, assemble, and advance as everyone imagined.

Instead, it stopped in the flames, at the exit point of the "space jump".

"Haha, the torpedo explosion distorted the nearby space, the jump point cannot be opened normally, and those warships are stuck!"

"Tang Long is truly a genius!"

"It must be because those robot officers trained them well!"

"The artificial intelligence program helped him cheat!"

On the big screen, the second round of penetrating torpedoes arrived and hit directly into the hull of the "stuck" Silver Eagle Empire warship, producing an even more spectacular explosion.

Some smart captains have already figured out what's going on. They know that they have been abandoned by the federal top brass and have become cannon fodder, and they are determined to surrender to the Silver Eagle Empire.

So a look of horror appeared on his face, and when he opened his mouth to call for a stop, Tang Long had already issued the order.

"Main gun fire!"

In this tense and fierce battlefield environment, the main gunners pressed the firing buttons like a conditioned reflex, and more than a thousand huge energies shot towards the designated coordinates at the speed of light.

So the audience in the venue saw the most grand, spectacular, realistic and expensive visual scenes in the history of human cinema.

But more than a thousand main gun energy bombs condensed into a huge energy, directly covering the jump point.

None of the more than 2,000 space battleships that had just jumped out and had not yet exerted any power were in a complete form.

The "passage" that had just been cleared was once again covered with warship wreckage. The follow-up troops of the Silver Eagle Empire would not be able to perform a "space jump" without "clearing" it again.

Everyone on the big screen was stunned. They couldn't believe that they had destroyed more than 2,000 large space battleships of the enemy so easily.

The commanders of the other fleets were furious. They knew that they had been abandoned by their country and had become cannon fodder on the battlefield, so they united and wanted to remove Tang Long from his command.

At this time, the signalman reported that in 10 minutes, more than space battleships would appear near the battlefield. Everyone was stunned by this terrifying number.

The commanders of the remaining fleets were even more determined to surrender and attempt to capture Tang Long, the "culprit".

At this time, the commander of the Silver Eagle Empire requested a video call with Tang Long.

When Major Generals Keister and Darrens received the battle report, they could not believe it was true. They then became interested in the commander of the battle and wanted to persuade Tang Long to surrender.

As a result, Tang Long gave the other party the middle finger. The warship he commanded roared, broke through the encirclement at an incredible speed, and escaped into the death zone full of warship wreckage.

Some of the surrendered self-propelled gunboats gave chase, but Tang Long had amazing driving skills and sailed at high speed in the death zone.

He used the method of destroying the "energy ball" to escape the pursuit of the traitors.

The film ends with Tang Long's achievements being known to the federal top brass, and people across the federation begin to celebrate. Tang Long also returns safely and sets foot on federal soil.

In the original novel, the subsequent plot is that Tang Long's credit is falsely claimed.

But in this film, that obviously cannot be shown.

There was no need for Jiang Heng to make the audience unhappy, he just laid the groundwork in some places.
