"Half an hour?" Towin laughed, "It's not a chase, it's a head-on encounter, and ten minutes should be enough." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Ten minutes?" Colonel Targate was a little surprised, but not overly surprised, he shook his head and said, "You're not going to take another risk, are you?" ”

"It's not an adventure." Brigadier General Towin waved his hand, then turned sideways to Captain Obtu, a black officer, and said, "Captain, have the fighter squadrons of the ships attacked?" ”

"Due to the emergency steering and emergency acceleration, in order to prevent any accidents during takeoff, the squadrons did not attack for the time being." Captain Obutu glanced at the screen in front of him and replied, "They won't be able to attack until the course is back in line." ”

"Order the fighter squadron to temporarily stop attacking, and the fighters of the Sijing people will solve it for the air defense system. Our main target now is still those three Sijing warships. ”

"Enemy ships fire!" At this time, Colonel Tagate shouted, and the two Destroyer gunships of the Sijing people in the distance, as well as the planetary assault mothership that was miserably hit by the pulsed laser, did not seem to hurt the vital point, all fired at the Iron Eagle fleet, and a large number of plasma shells with a red halo shrouded the fleet that was moving at high speed!

"Can you get out of the way?" Brigadier General Towin frowned and asked, he also had a headache about the firing speed of the Sijing warship, although the other party did not have such a high rate of fire as his main weapon, but the power was stronger, and once it was hit, the damage caused would be greater.

Colonel Tagate shook his head and replied, "No dodge!" Even if it is accelerated, the route is within the coverage of the plasma! The best case is just the same as just now, in order to emphasize the hit rate, the plasma shells spread too widely, and even if they hit, they will not be all, at most one-fifth of the shells will hit us! ”

"That's enough! Transform the magnetic field defense system and provide all the excess energy to the passive defense system! Commodore Towin ordered, "The main guns of each ship continue to fire at the enemy fleet, concentrating on one of them!" Colonel, you come to determine a goal! His last words were addressed to Colonel Tagate.

"Leave it to me!" Tagai nodded, and then got busy on the operating platform in front of him, "Mark the enemy's two Destroyer gunships as targets A and B, the planetary assault mothership as target C, and the main guns of the whole fleet will concentrate on target A!" ”

"Knock ......" and "Battle Till Dawn" shook violently, which was hit by the plasma shell of the Sijing people, but as Colonel Targate said, although it was hit by the plasma shell, only two shells hit the battlecruiser, and the damage caused was relatively minor, at least Commodore Towin and Colonel Targate were unmoved, and continued to be busy with their own work, except for the damage control officer who was confirming the damage to other ships, the other people in the bridge basically did not react much.

"Our anti-ship missiles are approaching the target!" Captain Obtu reported, "The Sijing fleet is intercepting with anti-aircraft fire!" More than sixty missiles have already been intercepted by them! ”

"What changes have occurred to the route of the Sijing fleet?" Towin asked.

"No changes yet, continue to approach us in a serpentine maneuver!" It was the radar officer who answered him.

"Enemy Fleet A target, a Destroyer gunboat hit by our main guns!" Captain Obtu reported again, "Three shells hit, the shield remains!" ”

"The hit rate has been reduced, and it looks like the side can't fly too fast against the enemy. However, the closer you get, the higher the hit rate. Tagate said, with the assistance of the ship's main engine, recalculating the fleet shelling pattern to increase the hit rate of the main guns in high-speed movement.

"The planetary assault mothership fires continuously! It's a high-energy plasma beam! Suddenly, Captain Obtu roared in a shocked voice, "The 'Arabian' was hit, the magnetic field protection system did not work, and the charged armor was directly penetrated!" ”

Just as he was reporting the situation, a bright flash appeared on the screen used in the bridge instead of portholes to show the situation outside! Then the screen display automatically turned to the direction in which the flash appeared - the "Arabia" had been at the rear of the fleet, and in the previous battle, it had only been hit by two plasma shells on the bow and side armor, and the damage was not serious, at most it was broken by the plasma, and there were only two scorched marks on the hull.

But now, the hull where the engine on the left side of the rear of this battle cruiser is located has already burned into a raging fire, and a large number of hull fragments are sprayed outward at high speed along with the air inside the ship, and the speed of the entire starship has also slowed down in an instant, leaving the queue!

"Hell, what's going on?!" Brigadier General Towin shouted, "Order the 'Arab' to seal off the damaged deck and empty the air......"

But before his order was handed down, he saw that the entire left engine of the "Arabia" was located in the damaged port engine area, and after a circle of fire broke out at the junction with the main hull, it broke away from the main hull!

"The 'Arab' has severed the link to the left engine area! Now they're only half as motivated! "They need help!" ”

"Colonel, let's do our best to get rid of Target A!" Brigadier General Towin ordered loudly, "Order the Vostok to slow down and cover the Arabian with all your might!" The ship seems to have lost its combat effectiveness! ”

The entire fleet slowed down due to the damage of one starship, and it was impossible for them to abandon their allies and leave alone.

But also because of the rapid deceleration of the fleet, the hit rate of the main guns immediately increased, including the damaged but unsunken "Arabia", five Kodiak-class battle cruisers, each ship has six combined 24-inch railguns that can fight the enemy, a total of thirty with sixty railguns, constantly projecting 10-ton alloy projectiles through the electromagnetic acceleration track towards the destroyer gunship that was marked as target A!

It's not that Ta Yan didn't want to directly attack the planetary assault mothership, it's just that after the fleet attacked the planetary assault carrier with coaxial pulse laser cannons but failed to make a single shot, those Destroyer gunboats have been in the front position of the planetary assault mothership, and no longer give the Iron Eagle fleet any chance to strike directly. On the contrary, after being protected by several gunboats, the planetary assault mothership was just right to slowly recharge its main weapon, and then suddenly showed its face and hit a cannon before hiding behind the destroyer gunship, causing Towin and them to stare dryly for the time being.

But now, Commodore Towin doesn't plan to spend any longer, the "Arabian" was damaged, lost half of the main propulsion engine, and still needs the "Vostok" to escort and even tow it before it can return to the moon base for repairs, which is equivalent to a direct two-fifths of the fleet's combat strength, and if it continues like this, let alone annihilate this Sijing fleet, they may all be put into it, which of course will not be Commodore Towin's choice.

"Target A has been shot continuously, and the shield is overloaded!" Of course, it is not without good news, the destroyer gunship, which regards itself as a planetary assault mothership, after being hit by a number of concentrated 10-ton alloy projectiles in a row, the shield overload disappeared, and the armor also continued to break and pierce under the impact of the shells, and it didn't last long before it was broken in two by the dense alloy projectiles, and directly exploded into two huge fireballs, and disappeared into space, leaving only some fragments of wreckage as proof of its existence.

In front of the planetary assault mothership, there is only one Destroyer gunship left.

"The fleet is full of rudders, speed three!" Ignoring the destruction of a Destroyer gunship, Commodore Towin's attention was focused on the planetary assault mothership, and under his order, the huge starship trembled slightly, and with the buzz of the ship's rapid turn alarm, it made a second sharp turn in space, facing the enemy from the left, and then changing back to the front of the enemy, "Return to the rudder!" ”

"Sir, our anti-ship missiles are all destroyed!" "But the missile swarm had already overloaded the shield against target B before it was completely destroyed!" ”

"Targate!" Brigadier General Towin glanced to the side.

"Ready......" Colonel Tagate replied with a thumbs up at him.

But before he could finish speaking, Captain Obutu reported loudly again: "Planetary Assault Mothership High Energy Response!" High-energy plasma beams! Target this ship! ”

"All emergency braking rockets on the port side are sprayed at full speed!" With just one glance at the screen, Towin understood what he was supposed to do, and he had confirmed the direction of the high-energy plasma beam.

Before Towin could finish speaking, Captain Obutu raised his fist and slammed it into the red button in front of him, which was covered by clear glass, and smashed it deep into the panel along with the glass cover on it!

The left side of the hull of the Kodiak-class battlecruiser "Fight to Dawn" immediately erupted a row of columns of fire, pushing the huge hull to the right at an extremely high speed!

In just a split second, a purple-red beam of light passed by the left side of the "Battle to Dawn", which was pushed away from its original position, and it was only about ten meters away from the hull!

"Mr. Obtu, calculate the interval between the firing of the main weapons of the planetary assault mothership!" After dodging the blow, Towin immediately said to Captain Obtu, "And the distance we are now to the Sijing spaceship!" ”

"We are now within six hundred kilometers of the Sijing spaceship! The timing of the Planetary Assault Mothership's firing is uncertain, less than a minute between firing, compared to two minutes when plasma shells were fired before! Captain Obtu didn't even look at the screen, but he reported the data, proving that the things had been on his radar all along.

"Looks like they're hiding a hand, too." Colonel Tagate sneered and said, "Although the army has destroyed several planetary assault carriers before, they haven't mentioned that planetary assault carriers have this ability!" ”

"Maybe these weapons are inconvenient to use in the atmosphere." Commodore Towin stared at the screen and didn't stop, "When we get back, I think we'll need to make a series of modifications to these battlecruisers." The starships of the Sijing people are more mobile than ours, and the accuracy of the electromagnetic railgun will be significantly reduced during mobile warfare, so I want to replace all the back turrets of the Kodiak class with laser weapons, and only keep the belly rail turret for ground attack. ”

"Then we have to modify the reactor to supply so many large energy consumers." Targate smiled, and then he asked solemnly, "What are you going to do with them now?" ”

"The 'Arabian' has been damaged, and the 'Vostok' is going to stay behind to protect them, so we only have three ships to use right away, but there are only two of the Sijing people left, and one of them won't last long before we take it out, and our real target is only that planetary assault mothership." Commodore Towin replied, "Order the Dawn and Amber to disperse and not continue to follow the ship." The three of us launched attacks on the planetary assault carriers from three directions, and continued to contain the enemy's maneuvers with anti-ship missiles. ”

"Well, let the Vostok deal with the B target, it won't live long anyway, and it won't threaten the Arabian, so that the other ships can join us in fighting the planetary assault mothership without being distracted." Colonel Targate proposed, "Now we can also use fighter jets to carry out an attack on the ship." ”

"Agreed." Brigadier General Towin replied without looking up, he was now busy calculating something on his command platform, "Call me after you finish the destroyer!" ”

"Okay, I'll do ......" Colonel Tagate began to give the order after pulling the seat belts on his shoulders and twisting his body from side to side to make himself sit more comfortably.

The "Vostok", which had been parked next to the "Arabian" for escort, started its main engine, and under the bright flame, the battleship began to turn, and rushed straight towards the destroyer gunship, which was already spewing flames and debris, and the eight combined 24-inch magnetic rail main guns that could face the enemy head-on also began to continuously spray alloy projectiles with blue electric traces, and bombarded the gunboat one after another!

Since the distance between the two sides has been shortened to a mere 600 kilometers, which can be regarded as a distance within the field of vision in space, the hit rate of the railgun weapon using kinetic live ammunition has immediately increased significantly, and the alloy projectiles fired by the main gun of the "Vostok" have successfully hit the gunboat several times in a row, and it seems that it only takes two or three more cannons to completely destroy the destroyer.

At the same time, Colonel Tagate, who had taken over the command of Brigadier General Towin, also began his own work.

Due to the fact that the Scyclical Bee fighters were almost completely cleaned up by the fleet's dense laser anti-aircraft fire net like turkeys in the previous battle, at this time, the three battlecruisers were scattered to fight, and there was no longer any need to worry about the threat of those Sjing fighters, not to mention that there was not much left, and their attacks could not break through the protective layer of the starship.
