Dodging another shelling by the Sijing people, the "Dongfang" no longer dared to stop using the coaxial laser cannon, which would only make them a living in space
Target, they can only follow Tagate's previous order, mobile flight, do not give the Sijing people a chance to aim, nor do they give the other party a chance to predict the direction of progress, so as to strike in advance. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Fortunately, the magnetic rail cannon of the "Vostok" can still play some role after the ring spacecraft loses its shield protection, and a few shots hit the high-density alloy of the ring spacecraft, and on the ring belt that was originally damaged by the ion cannon bombardment, it hit a large number of debris and deep pits again, and the use effect looks better than using the coaxial laser cannon.
After the projectiles fired from the railgun hit the Ringship seven or eight times in a row, causing unexpected damage, the Ringship seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, retreating into the Earth's atmosphere faster and faster, and the broken hull trembling more and more.
As more shells landed on the ship, more debris flew around space, and some even fell into the atmosphere and turned into meteors - just because of the huge clouds from the plasma storm that people on the ground could not see.
In the end, under the regretful gaze of everyone, the circular spaceship of the Sijing people dragged the increasingly tattered hull and billowing smoke, crashed into the atmosphere, submerged into the thick plasma cloud, and disappeared without a trace.
Until the last moment, the "Dongfang" did not stop firing, but it hit the opponent with nearly 30 high-density alloy projectiles in a row, but it still failed to destroy the giant spaceship of the Sijing people who had been heavily damaged in front of him, and the captain was also very unwilling.
"Still haven't been able to catch up." Seeing this scene, Brigadier General Towin also regretted that in order to mobilize the orbital ion cannon to shoot at the circular spacecraft, he did not let the ship approach the area where the circular spacecraft was located, but when he found that the ion cannon failed to destroy the enemy with one shot and only severely damaged the opponent, it was too late to catch up, and when the circular spacecraft dived into the clouds, the "Battle to Dawn" was still more than a thousand kilometers away from it, and it was too late to use the coaxial laser cannon.
"How does it feel to miscalculate?" Colonel Targate asked, "You rarely have this kind of experience, do you?" ”
"It's not good." Brigadier General Towin shook his head and said, "I was going to kill the ship as soon as it appeared, but I didn't count the backup if I didn't get rid of it in one hit. ”
"It's a shame indeed. But......" Tagate said, "I don't know how long it will take for the Sijing to fix something that big, but at least it won't be done in a few days, so I don't think we have to worry about it coming over the heads of our ground forces for the time being, and we don't have to worry about it returning to space anytime soon." ”
"I will inform the ground forces to intensify the pursuit of its whereabouts." "It would be best if we could destroy it while it was still on the ground for repairs." ”
"That's not easy, the ground forces have traced the location of their main base for several years without results, this kind of aircraft, if you can't track it at the first time, it's not easy to find its docking point, you can only try your luck." "But it's better to track down than to do nothing." But now, what are we going to do? ”
"The Vice Admiral meant that we should carry out orbital cover, and now that the fleet of the Sijing people has been defeated by us, there should be no other fleet available for them. However, our intelligence is insufficient, and we can't be completely sure of the military level of the Sijing people, so we can't rely on inference. The 'Arabia' was damaged, and although it was repaired against the course, the 'Dawn' was about to be damaged by you, so these two ships can only go back to the moon now. As for the other ships, come with me and go to low-earth orbit to stand by and be on alert. ”
"That's fine." "But now that the fleet has gone through this battle, the ammunition consumption is very serious, especially the heavy anti-ship missiles have been exhausted, and the only thing that can be used is some airborne anti-ship missiles." Moreover, the consumption of fuel and oxygen is not small, and it also needs to be replenished. On the other side of the moon, I'm afraid we won't be able to send any supply ships to help for a while, because we don't have any supply ships at the moment. ”
"I have informed the Moon that the Dawn and Arabian will be inspected and repaired as soon as they return, especially the Dawn, and if the hull condition is not so serious, it will return to the fleet with those supplies for resupply. Although the Aurora is not a professional supply ship, if the carrier-based aircraft are eliminated and the space is used to load supplies, it can also be loaded with a lot of things. If the Aurora is not lightly damaged, then we will have to send one of us back to transport supplies. ”
"If that's the case, let the Vostok go back." "The boat also played a couple of emergency jets, and went back to check it out." And they fought for a long time, not only did they run out of anti-ship missiles, but even the main guns and shells consumed a little more than other ships. What's more, there are still a lot of fragments of the wreckage of the Sijing warship floating in this space, especially the ring spaceship, and we need to salvage those fragments for analysis and research. At least I wanted to know why the ring spaceship of the Sijing people looked so fragile, and why it could still eat so many railgun shells without destroying it after being severely damaged by the ion cannon. ”
"I have that in mind, too." Towin nodded, "Anyway, let's go ahead with this arrangement first, and you can hurry up and return to the 'Battle Till Dawn'." Just wait for you to come back, and we'll set off for low-earth orbit to be on guard. At the very least, the ship and the Amber need to rush to support the ground forces first. ”
"Understood, I'll be right back." As he was about to leave, Tagate suddenly remembered something, "The orbital ion cannon has moved, right?" Don't be destroyed by the Sijing people finding their place. ”
"Not only has it moved, but even the stealth system has been turned on, optical stealth and radar stealth are used, and if the Sijing people want to find it based on the previous data, it is absolutely impossible. What's more, while we are still on guard in space, it is impossible for the Sijing people to sneak through the attack on the orbital ion cannon under our noses. ”
"That's the best, I'll come here."
The results of the battle in space were quickly passed on to Lin Hai, and he also saw some of the engagement process through the remote optical equipment of the lunar base.
"It turned out a lot better than I expected." He said to Sun Dahai, "I thought there would be a heavy loss, or a loss for both, but I didn't expect to win with such a small loss, although it was not perfect, but it also exceeded expectations." ”
"Torwin and Tagate are not idle people, even if they are just clones, their abilities are naturally extraordinary, otherwise they would not have received the rank of brigadier general as a clone." Sun Dahai replied, "Although the space strength shown by the Sijing people this time is more than any piece of intelligence we have collected before, only one of our starships has been severely damaged, but it is not fatal, and the other one has some hidden dangers, but it is also repairable. The only problem is that the material consumption of space warfare is too huge,"
"Material consumption is nothing, for us, it doesn't cost money to produce those weapons and ammunition, but it is the most expensive to maintain those weapons and ammunition after they are produced. It's nothing. Lin Hai didn't care much about the question Sun Dahai said at the end, compared to his own fleet defeating the Sijing fleet, it was simply not worth mentioning, "But in terms of transportation, it is indeed a troublesome matter, we don't have any professional space transport supply ships in our hands, at most there are some shuttles with a larger carrying capacity." No matter how large the carrying capacity of the shuttle is, compared with the capital ship, it is nothing. If you need to rely on those shuttles to deliver supplies to the fleet, how many shuttles will have to be used. ”
"That's why Commodore Towin decided to let the battleship transport it by himself, which is more efficient than using a shuttle to transport it, but it will make a professional warship unable to fight."
"Anyway, we won, didn't we? At least now we have spare ships to use. Lin Hai raised his hand and rubbed his face vigorously, when he looked at the battle situation before, he was also intent, but now that he relaxed, he felt a trace of exhaustion, "Tell Wang Hammer to continue to build Kodiak-class battlecruisers, at least three more." However, this time there is no need to rush as before, and it can be worked together with the orbital ion cannon system. Commodore Towin specifically reminded me of this, hoping that while increasing the size of the fleet, the construction of the orbital defense system would not be stopped. ”
"Because the power of our warship weapons still seems to be a little inferior to the Sijing people, at least our shield technology is far inferior to them." Sun Dahai saw that Lin Hai was a little tired, so he got up and walked to the table on the side, and brought a refreshing coffee, this is not a product of another time and space, but a product of humans in this time and space, clones do not need these to ensure their mental state.
"So Towin also suggested that the existing battle cruisers, as well as those that are being manufactured, should be improved and half of the railguns should be replaced with laser cannons." After a yawn, Lin Hai said, "Since we have all seen the battle, I agree to this suggestion." ”
"Laser cannons?" Sun Dahai recalled for a moment, and then said, "I remember, among the laser weapons of the Global Defense Force, there are no laser cannons suitable for use as turrets, right?" Most of the long-range lethal laser cannons are either huge pedestals, such as those used in planetary defense bases, or coaxial laser cannons, which are equipped with the Kodiak class. Like the one that can replace the railgun, it is not as powerful as the railgun. ”
"Theoretically, but we have Dr. Kane now." "He took over the project. Didn't Chen Xi say it before? Dr. Kane, the genetic protogen, had been in charge of a lot of research projects before his arrest, although after his arrest, other scientists from the coalition government took over those research projects, but the progress was not as fast as when Kane himself presided over, including more powerful, but the full system is smaller in size. I think that the Dr. Kane in our hands, although it is only a clone of him, in terms of technical ability, on the basis of various technologies, it should not be too much of a problem to develop a laser cannon that can replace the 600mm combined railgun, right? ”
"It's not the problem, it's time." "If we don't have an existing technology that we can use right away, and if we develop something new, we don't know when we will be able to get the results and put it into use." ”
"It doesn't matter, at least for a short time, the existing weapons of the Kodiak-class are enough for us to use for a while." Lin Hai walked to the electronic map with a coffee cup and said, "Now Commodore Towin is escorting us in the low-earth orbit above us with two battle cruisers, so that we can not worry about the space attack of the Sijing people for the time being." We will even be able to use orbital ion cannons to bombard hostile targets on the ground with impunity during this time. ”
"I don't think we're going to continue to use the Orbital Ion Cannon System for the time being, at least until the second one is officially launched." Sun Dahai also walked over, pointed to the map and said, "We don't have to worry too much about space now, there is Commodore Towin and his fleet in charge." But we are now on the ground, and we are still carrying out defensive tasks, and we do not need the support of ion cannons very much, so we can reduce some unnecessary exposure, and there will be less. We can ignore the Sijing people, but I think the other human forces, for the time being, it is better not to let them know that we have space forces, otherwise it will not be able to weaken them. ”
"Okay." Lin Hai scratched his scalp, "Anyway, after the Space Fleet was defeated by us or even almost completely annihilated, I don't think that the Sijing people would dare to continue to send ground troops to attack before regaining their strength." Of course, it cannot be ruled out that because of the failure of the space fleet, they will launch an offensive against our positions while we are happy and careless, resulting in the staggering of the positions of the two sides, and we will not dare to easily use space-based weapons to bombard ground targets at will. ”
"That would only consume their small number of troops."
"In any case, we still can't let our guard down just because we win a battle." Lin Hai looked at Sun Dahai, "Look at New York, it was because everyone thought they were about to win, and they carelessly failed to destroy that facility in the first place, so that the Sijing people successfully turned it into a crystal world." And that includes us. ”
"We're not going to make any more mistakes." Sun Dahai nodded his head and replied, "I will turn New London into a fortress!" Even the old Sebrook and the old Lem, which are outposts, will not be easily taken by the Sijing people! ”
"Don't go overboard, after all, we won't stay in country M for long, and after getting those crystals, we may leave, at most retain a little military presence here." (To be continued.) )
