Chapter 399 Dilar Encounter (Part 2)

"Fake...fake? Is it an illusion?" Charlemagne almost bit off his tongue. He thought that the opponents were just small ships, and a round of salvo could kill half of them, but he didn't expect it to be an illusion. "top

Of course, the phantoms are not the point, the point is how they can hide from the various radars of their own reconnaissance network. These phantoms can not help simulating laser light scattering and can also camouflage thermal radiation. Are you making an international joke, who has such a good holographic projection technology?

In addition to being surprised, Charlemagne had another thought in his heart. The opponent's full force was only 400 units. Are these illusions? Or part of an illusion? If the latter, how many?

With such a small force, this small flying unit wants to cause lethality to its own fleet? Have Byron, Ruskin and others lost their minds?

Charlemagne thinks that the human and insect forces are the last resort of Byron and others in the "Cristier" industrial park. As for the Lightning Python-class destroyer behind the "Headless Horseman", he directly Ignore it. After all, the only one that escaped from the virtual space was the Morning Star, and the air force of the two races of humans and insects was suddenly killed by the shadow side of "Christian". Therefore, it is more reasonable to say that these illusions came from the ground industrial park. The nature of the enterprise "Venus Pharmaceutical" also proves this point. You must know that "Venus" is a pharmaceutical company. It is really normal to do some biological research and secretly develop alien weapons.

"Tell those on the reconnaissance ship to mark the phantoms in the target group, use them as a reference, and incorporate them into the battle command network." Don't look at Charman, the deputy head of the team, who means "Albert alone, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven", But in terms of command ability alone, he still has two brushes.

"Yes." The herald took the order.

During the period when Charlemagne issued combat orders. The Morningstar has already engaged the flagship's immediate escort. On the other side, a large number of missiles synchronized the combat data of the command network, and the guidance system automatically corrected the target, bypassing those flying units marked as "phantoms", and went straight to the rear target.

As one group after another of fireballs exploded, more and more illusions were seen through by the pirates. From this point of view, the Sentinel's "Illusion" skill is as strong as it is strong, and it can be said to be a god-defying skill to confuse the enemy. However, once the soldiers meet hand-to-hand, it will inevitably show their feet and be seen through.

In Rector's time, it was because the swarm itself was a feint, and Rector's naval fleet was dispersed again. The main force was suppressing Tang Lin and the others in the Syrbes star port, and Tang Fang plotted against them and sealed their throats with a sword.

At this moment, with the pirate warships in formation, and under the tight, meticulous, and orderly ladder attack, the lameness of the battle plan of rushing into the enemy's formation began to emerge.

Most of Tang Fang's air forces are short-range attack units.

There is only one type of iron crow with long-range combat capabilities. But this guy is ridiculously expensive to make, so use it as a pioneer. It would hurt him to death if one of them was blown up.

Of course, put it aside. Bite the bullet and charge towards the enemy's artillery fire like this, even if there is an illusion in front of him, there will be some battle damage to some extent. A guy like Tang Fang who goes out without picking up two coins and even loses them will definitely die of depression.

However, it is different now. As early as when he was fighting with the pirate's interception team, he had already dispatched 12 detectors to weave a large net around the "Christian" battlefield, and any disturbance would be gathered to the central computer of the planetary command center through the system , Emma screened out important information and forwarded it to Tang Fang.

The detector is the crystallization of protoss detection technology. Not only is it small in size, but it is also equipped with an invisible stance that can cover the body's energy response. Its speed was upgraded in the observation tower before, which made it Tang Fang's most important investigation unit, and he liked it even more than the Euglena.

The sensor matrix of the detector can capture most of the small movements of a large number of targets within a certain range, and use the core a to conduct real-time analysis on the entire battlefield.

With such a powerful detection capability, the various kinetic energy guns of the pirate battleship have been locked on the ballistic trajectory by Emma before firing. Only some missiles and torpedoes that receive laser guidance or relay guidance can exceed detection. Ballistic prediction of device a.

But even if these missiles and torpedoes bypass the phantom in front by chance, what awaits them behind is either the blade worm of the flying dragon or the high-energy laser beam of the fixed-point defense target aircraft thrown by the crow. These guided weapons, which the captains placed high hopes on, turned into grand festive fireworks one after another, dyeing the battlefield on both wings as if it were daytime.

The first round of attack failed. Apart from marking some phantoms, nearly 300 warships fired a round of salvo and found nothing. Such a result made the commanders of the pirate ships feel relieved. How could these small ships be so difficult, as if they could predict all attacks.

Those 10-meter-long creatures with a snake-like torso and wings inserted into their ribs, as well as aerospace fighters with a right wing of no more than 12 or 3 meters, are so fast that the turret can't lock them at all. The slightly larger transport planes behind and the aircraft that launch fixed-point defense target aircraft are slower, but when the turret rotates, they also rotate. Even if they can be locked, the time it takes from firing the cannon to the kinetic energy projectile flying tens of kilometers is enough for them to play far beyond The flexible performance of the battleship, or dodge to the side, or use the phantom ahead to disrupt the target locking system of the battleship.

The most unbelievable thing is a 40-meter-long alien with disgusting sarcoids and a huge beak. They do not use their own flexibility to avoid artillery fire like a 40-meter-class mechanical aircraft, but have a choice. Hard resistance to small and medium-sized projectiles and missiles. It is true that those weapons capable of penetrating the armor of a battleship, or even smashing a light assault boat, are not weak when shot at it. However, what is incredible is that after only a few breaths, those wounds that look cold It will slowly close up and return to its original state.

How to fight this kind of battle? How can such a scene be accepted? As a large-scale pirate group, "Apollo" is naturally not comparable to a small role like "Garuda". The crew may be slightly inferior to the Star Alliance Navy in terms of overall ability, but in terms of bravery and bravery, they are far superior to the former. times. Years of battles in space have already trained them to be resolute and capable, and they are even more experienced in naval warfare.

In the eyes of these people, the so-called naval battle is mostly nothing more than a confrontation between giant ships with cannons. Whoever has more ships is more advanced. The chances of winning are higher. Of course, formation, movement methods, formation coordination, command art, luck, etc. are also factors that cannot be ignored.

However, what happened in front of them completely overturned their understanding of naval battles. So it turns out that naval battles can still be played like this? So flexible, so tricky. So unusual?

What they don't know is that if they can do this, the territory of all mankind is probably only Tang Fang's family, and there will be no semicolons.

When Charlemagne realized that something was wrong, this combat method could not cause effective damage to the enemy, and was planning to change his mind, suddenly, his feet shook, and a blue light beam instantly illuminated the entire bridge.

The deputy commander in charge of commanding the direct escort fleet of the "Headless Horseman" fell to the ground. His whole face was so pale that there was not a trace of blood in it.

Charlemagne woke up instantly, and subconsciously looked to the left. On the projection bulkhead connected to the shipboard sensor system, a thick light beam with a diameter of nearly 2 meters passed close to the port side of the "Headless Horseman". An old tiger shark-class destroyer pierced ahead, and then blew up the tail propulsion system of a Charles Federation-made Sea Dragon-class cruiser. Another armed shuttle and a combat support ship were destroyed along the way. After 2 unmanned reconnaissance drones, they curved a line of arc in the low-earth orbit of "Cristile", and finally plunged into the dark void on the side of "Lachesis".

"What... what?" The deputy head looked behind him subconsciously. A Longsword-class frigate was rapidly disintegrating in the distance. Behind it, the power cabin of the Daredevil-class destroyer was flashing with flames, and the explosion formed a line on the belly of the ship. straight line. There is also a Sulu Empire Sea Lion-class cruiser on the beam flight path. The entire ship island where the radar and fire control system were located was split open, and large groups of fireballs and ship wreckage gushed out like a blowout.

In addition to these, there is a Madshark-class heavy-duty assault ship produced by the Monya Empire on the left rear of the "Headless Horseman".

"Ship... Captain. It's... that lightning python."

Without the deputy captain's reminder, even if Charlemagne guessed, he knew that it was the lightning python that moved. But the point is, a 200-meter destroyer, how could it kill 7 or 8 of its own ships in one shot, this... this is unbelievable.

Is this still a lightning python? This python has been refined...

The staff of the driving team broke out in a cold sweat. The blue light just turned to the right, and the "Headless Horseman" might have been stabbed to death at this moment.

"Quick, turn around quickly." Charlemagne was in a hurry. He thought that the 400 warships on the left and right wings with phantoms and real bodies were the main threat. Judging from the fighting method of the battleship, it still relies on six 200mm rail guns. Such a weapon system is unlikely to pose a big threat to the "Headless Horseman".

However, it turned out that he was wrong, and he was wrong. The six 200mm rail guns were just auxiliary guns, and the real weapon of the "Lone Ranger" was a high-energy particle gun with a diameter of nearly 2 meters.

"Ship...Captain, the enemies on the two wings are attacking." Youdao said that the room was leaking and it was raining overnight, and when the Morning Star fired a cannon to fool Charlemagne, the battleships on the two wings also ushered in a hand-to-hand battle.

Charlemagne felt extremely uncomfortable. The "Apollo" side even counted the damaged warships together, and there were 362 ships in total, ranging from small assault boats to large battleships. It's dense.

I thought that switching to the cross battle formation would let those poor people who recklessly broke into the battle group know why the flowers are so popular, but how can this be said? The situation has taken a turn for the worse, and our own fleet is now worried about the head and the back, and it’s not counting if the head is pinched, and a Poseidon needle is placed under the buttocks, which needs to be washed and washed to remove the hair, "um"... Put a bucket in the middle, sprinkle some cumin on the fire, smear some five-spice powder, tear off a piece and dip it in garlic and vinegar. Tsk, tsk... That slippery, that tender, that fragrant, that fresh!

"Uh, uh, uh..." Charlemagne shook his head vigorously, pursed his lips, and patted his face with both hands alternately left and right: "Now is not the time to be distracted."

He walked to the front railing and looked at the array of monitors. He couldn't move anymore after just one glance.

On the left wing, the swarm has been entangled with more than 100 pirate ships, a real close hand to hand combat!

In the distance, the attack range of the Corruptor and the Flying Dragon was limited, and Charlemagne didn't know much about their combat power level. They were only limited to large scalps, rough skin and thick flesh, and their recovery ability was amazing. The little guy is flexible and changeable, and his ability to see through every stitch is unparalleled in the world.

Until now, he finally had a relatively comprehensive understanding of the Corruptor and the Flying Dragon. The former was large, and groups of three and five gathered together to challenge large and medium-sized ships such as battleships and frigates as opponents.

Jesus up! Charlemagne always thought that the word "mouth cannon" was used to describe human beings. Until now, he didn't understand one thing, who said that mouth cannons are the patent of human beings, and the mouth cannons of these deep-space creatures are a hundred times, a thousand times more poisonous than aqua regia.

How thick is the hull of a battleship? The thinnest ones are all over 1.5 meters. They are not born of concubines like armored vehicles and main battle tanks. It is conservatively estimated to be 12 meters thick.

If a 12-meter-thick homogeneous rolled steel plate is made into a wall or a door, imagine how thick and heavy it is?

However, even so, under the dual effects of the Corruptor's parasitic spores and strong corrosive goo, it is like decayed old bark. It was peeled off layer by layer, and finally collapsed into shocking holes.

Charlemagne's heart was bleeding. That's a battleship! Battleship! A battleship costing tens of billions of star coins! Looking at the dark green areas, it was like watching those bugs peel off his daughter's clothes one by one.

There are also those flying dragons that can't be chased away like flies in front of the battleship. Look at this kite flyer. Twist twice, turn around and flick the shuttle. Twisting twice, turning around and swinging the shuttle, small ships like destroyers, frigates, reconnaissance ships, and combat support ships, turrets, radar stations, sensor systems, and even auxiliary propellers have all become live targets for their show operations. It's really called a point where it catches fire, where it pokes and where it convulses, the key is that it also turns and spins. In terms of professional terms in certain fields, it is called split attack and splash damage.

Whether it was the Longsword-class frigate of the Star Alliance, the Cobra-class frigate of the Charles Federation, or the Seahorse destroyer of the Sulu Empire, and various other small ships, wherever these annoying migratory locusts passed by, the appointed people were thrown into chaos.

In addition, there are some annoying phantoms, flying around various types of warships, spraying here and flicking there. In this kind of hand-to-hand combat situation, even if it is marked as a "phantom target" by the battleship, as long as it goes into the swarm of insects and comes out again, who can know whether it is true or not?

If they fought at a distance, the pirates could still gain some advantage, but once they took over, it would become a one-sided war.

The cross formation on the left wing was torn apart by the swarms, and the situation on the right wing was not much better. The upgraded Viking fighters were like a silver wave. The flying thunder poured on the large and small ships on the pirate side.

Twelve fixed-point defense target drones are distributed unevenly in the battlefield space. The high-energy laser beams are like dazzling ribbons. Some missiles locked on the Viking fighter jets are just ejected from the vertical launch system, and they are quickly going to destruction. , The violent airflow also blew the main body of the battleship tottering.

In the control of the crow, Emma has won the Samadhi of mobile warfare. The fixed-point defense target drone can not only crack the missile, but also disrupt the attack rhythm of the battleship. At this time, the crow will display another skill ----- - Missile hunting.

This kind of powerful bomb with a range of splash damage cannot cause a one-hit kill effect on battleships and cruisers, but it is used to deal with small frigates and destroyers, especially scout ships, combat support ships, and assault boats. The following units are simply outstanding.

As a fusion strike missile equipped with intelligence a, capable of laser guidance, and providing ultra-long-range accelerated flight, the energy impact released when it explodes far exceeds the heavy torpedoes launched by ordinary battleships. Often after a group of intense flashes, all matter in a radius of more than 200 meters is melted away.

To say that the most damaged ones are the high-level templars in the transport plane, still in groups of three. This time, they gave up the small targets, and specifically looked for troubles with those large ships, and under Tang Fang's deliberate order, they did not use psionic storms, but exclusively released energy to counterattack.

Indeed, judging from the battle of Rector, the skill "Energy Erosion" is enough to knock out small naval units such as aerospace fighters, but for warships with strong shielding interlayers like frigates and destroyers, even if it is released continuously, it is still not enough. Only secondary ship modules such as power, functional circuits, and weapon systems can be paralyzed, which is not enough to cause fatal damage to the ship.

And what Tang Fang wants is this kind of effect. He has units such as Corruptors, Iron Crows, Viking fighters, and flying dragons. He doesn't like small ships, but large ships...can be given to Byron to enrich the fleet. strength. After all, Byron was the original commander of "Apollo". If all these warships were wiped out in one go, even if the control of "Apollo" was successfully regained, it would be nothing but a bare-bones commander, contrary to his original intention.

Of course, the hull armor of frigates and destroyers has shielding interlayers, and large capital ships of the cruiser and battleship level have higher protection performance. Tang Fang's countermeasure is very simple, one "energy back erosion" won't work, what about the other two? What about three? On the pirate side, there are no more than 6 battleships and 32 cruisers, which are divided into two parts evenly.

30 high-level templar s3 battleships + 16 cruisers, do not release "psychic lightning", use "energy back erosion" alone, 1 high-level templar can use 5 times, supplemented by Viking fighters It is not difficult to break armor and paralyze large ships. (To be continued..)
