The Sansha Slayer

So in doing missions for the State, I get a lot of Counter-Sansha operations. These are usually battleship infested war zones. Due to my excessive training and a 1.5 billion ISK ship, they don't stand a chance. Lately though, I have been getting more than the usual amount of missions against the Sansha. I don't know why. Intel I get from my Agent says that the Sansha are building their ranks and preparing for something big. Let's hope they aren't going to do something wild. Anyway, one particular mission, I had to use one warp gate after another. But the gates always seem to to leave me a few, more like 50, kilometers away from the next gate. As I puts along at 104 m/s, I kick on my armor tank and prep for the assault from the assorted Sansha ships guarding the next gate. About 20km out they finally realize I'm there. They begin firing everything they have at me. Being an armor tank, my shields drop almost instantly. My armor on the other hand, doesn't even notice the assault. Shame I don't have a paint repper. It gets torched off my ship and then I have to take my ugly but perfect armor Apocalypse Navy Issue back to HQ. Back to the story, Kreatus. So as they attempt to siege my ship, I casually slow-boat to the gate. Once there, I search my target list for Cruiser/Battlecruiser sized ships. There is only 40 of those flying around. I open fire and begin to take them out one by one. They explode and I move on to the Battleship class ships. Only half as many of those around. Once I fight them down to the last two, I kick out the drones and order them after the battleship I was targeting next. The ship explodes and the drones get hungry for the Frigate/Destroyer sized ships. They munch away and the little ships die one by one. As my drones do that, I kill the last battleship and wait for my drones to finish. When everything is dead i recall my drones and move on. About three "rooms" just like this. The last room though is a mess. Hundreds of ships of varying ships to fight through. Agent says kill them all or I don't get paid. So I take aim and land the first shots on select ships to irritate the whole lot of them. (I love a challenge.) I use the same method of Medium/Large/Small kill order with drones sprinkled in there. Once everything is dead I salvage all the wrecks. Can't let all that money go to waste. Salvage is a story for another day. I return to my Agent and say "I'm done!" To which he replies "Good. Here's your pay. Now either ask for another mission or go away." I'm not a fan of the guy but the job pays so I'll deal with him. And that's the story of killing Sansha just because the State said so.
