0780 Battle of the Behemoths (7)

0780

"This ship is two thousand six hundred kilometers away from the target planetary assault mothership!" After a fierce battle, with the newly joined Eagle Claw fighter group to contain the Sijing people's bee fighters, the "Dawn" no longer continued to pay attention to those bee fighters, and the small number of reactions that rushed over would also be burned to ashes by the laser anti-aircraft fire on the battle cruiser, and their main target was still the planetary assault mothership of the Sijing people.

"The ship is at its current speed." Colonel Tagate glanced at the screen in front of him, then said, "Ten seconds later, there will be a maneuver and a change of orbit, and the course will be randomly selected. ”

"Colonel, it is this ship that detects the acceleration of the planetary assault carrier and predicts its course!"

"Sir, the planetary assault mothership has a high-energy reaction, predicting that the other party is going to fire!"

Just as the "Aurora" was maneuvering and changing orbits, two reports appeared in Tagate's ears at the same time, and the planetary assault mothership on the main screen had changed from flying with the ring spacecraft to flying in front of the ring spacecraft, and the bow of the ship also appeared a flash of energy when gathering energy.

"Start changing tracks in two seconds!" Tagate immediately roared, and then the helmsman of the "Dawn" immediately kept an eye on the time, and as soon as two seconds passed, the rudder changed orbit with full rudder! And in the next second after the "Dawn" changed orbit, the planetary assault mothership opened fire, and the high-energy plasma beam shot out from the bow of the ship, and within a second, it passed the previous position of the "Dawn", and the beam was not even 100 meters away from the closest position of the "Dawn"!

"This range is too far, isn't it?" Narrowly dodging this cannon, Tagate frowned, he became more and more jealous of the main weapon of the planetary assault mothership like the Sijing people, "The previous one, it didn't hit so far!" ”

"I'm afraid they deliberately suppressed the range and wanted to yin us." The captain of the Aurora replied, "But they certainly didn't expect that our energy detection equipment was so far away that they could detect something wrong in advance, which allowed us to dodge the cannon." ”

"Okay." Colonel Tagate spread his hands and said, "We actually lowered the range of the coaxial laser cannon, and we didn't want to expose all the performance data of the main weapon in advance. It looks like everyone is doing the same thing. ”

"Are we going to fight back?" The captain asked.

"No, at this distance, we'll have to stop and adjust our aim to hit them, and it's going to take a bit of time, enough for the planetary assault mothership to come back with another shot, and I don't plan to die with them." In response to the captain's remark, Brigadier General Tagagate added, "Of course, we can't just look stupidly and do nothing. The main cannon has been changed to the target of attack, and the target has been changed to a circular ship. ”

"I'm afraid the shelling won't work, right?" The captain said again.

"I didn't expect these 75x diameter railguns alone to be able to directly take out a big guy with a diameter of five kilometers, even if that guy looks more fragile than a doughnut, its shield is believed to be the heaviest of the Sijing people's weapons and equipment we've ever seen." Tagate replied, "I just wanted to see if I could provoke the Sjals by bombarding the Ringship, so that the Planetary Assault Mothership could be diverted away from the Ringship and give the Commodore a chance to make a move." ”

"Understood." Hearing this explanation, the captain nodded, and then passed the order on.

Immediately, the eight combined 24-inch magnetic rail main guns, which were still constantly firing at the planetary assault mothership and the Bee fighter, immediately turned their muzzles and aimed at the circular spaceship, one after another alloy projectiles flew out with electric light, and most of the shells accurately hit the conspicuous circular spaceship.

And just as Tagate guessed, after the circular spaceship was directly hit by the alloy armor-piercing projectile, only the surface of the impact point splashed a little energy ripple reaction, and the overall shield was not even inspired by the armor-piercing projectile!

"Sure enough, a railgun of this scale is still not powerful enough." Seeing this, Colonel Tagate shook his head with some regret, "It has to be the orbital defense system deployed in the previous earth defense orbit to solve this thing with one shot." ”

"You're talking about defensive ion artillery systems deployed in high-orbit areas, right?" The captain looked at Tagate, "If it's the latest Type 7 ion cannon, maybe it can." That kind of ion cannon is specially designed to deal with asteroids with a diameter of more than 10 kilometers, and the upper echelons do not even dare to use that kind of cannon to fire at ground targets. ”

"We don't have a Type Seven gun." "Go around to the side area of the planetary assault mothership, then quickly slow down and accelerate again after three seconds. ”

"Execute it immediately." As the captain conveyed the order, he asked in a low voice, "Sir, what are your plans, why are you slowing down?" Wouldn't we be hit by the plasma cannon of the Sijing people? ”

"I'd like to test the reaction of that planetary assault mothership." Colonel Tagate stared at his target and replied casually, "Look at our slowdown, if it alerts them, if they mistakenly think that we are going to slow down there and are ready to shoot them or the ring ship with coaxial laser cannons, they will definitely make a move." If there is no response, then we will do it twice, and when they are numb, we will give them a real shot! ”

"Understood." The captain nodded, glanced at the data on the screen, and said, "Now we are still about two thousand kilometers away from the planetary assault mothership, this distance, although the other party maintains a synchronized speed with the ring spacecraft, but can we hit them?" There may only be one chance. ”

"I'm not that greedy." Colonel Tagate laughed, "So I'm satisfied with just killing that planetary assault mothership, and as for the ring ship, I'd better leave it to Brigadier General Towin to solve." ”

After Tagate's plan began to act, the "Aurora" first sailed to the side of the planetary assault carrier at a rapid speed, and then made an emergency deceleration as planned, and the bright pillar of fire ejected by the retro at the front of the hull was clearly visible in the distance.

The Planetary Assault Mothership also moved, but only turned in place, pointing the main weapon system in the bow in the direction of the Aurora.

Then, without waiting for the direction of the planetary assault carrier to be adjusted, the "Dawn" accelerated again, and soon left its previous position and headed for the side position of the planetary assault carrier again.

In just one minute, the "Aurora" provoked the planetary assault mothership three times in this way. On the fourth occasion, the Planetary Assault Mothership did not react, but allowed the Dawn to fly around it.

But this time, after slowing down, the "Aurora" did not accelerate again, but quickly adjusted the hull, aimed the bow at the circular spacecraft, and the coaxial pulse laser cannon under the main armor of the bow also began to enter the charging program!

In this way, after judging that the "Dawn" was going to attack the circular spacecraft, the planetary assault carrier immediately seemed to panic, not only adjusted the direction of the hull, but also increased its speed, and flew directly to the front of the circular spacecraft! They seem to already know that there is no hurry to open fire, so they plan to use themselves as shields to fend off this attack!

"The distance between the ship and the planetary assault mothership?" On the bridge of the "Aurora" combat ship, watching the planetary assault mothership change orbit and leave the ring spacecraft and turn forward, Tagate suddenly asked.

"About 1,800 kilometers!" The radar crew immediately reported, "This distance is shrinking as enemy ships are approaching us!" ”

"The coaxial pulse laser cannon remains charged, and the whole ship moves forward at full speed to enter the impact route, and the impact target is set as a planetary assault carrier!" While giving the order, Tagate took out an electronic watch from his sealed pocket, staring at the constantly jumping numbers on it, "One minute and twenty-five seconds later, the emergency rocket on the right rear side of this ship will be sprayed at full power!" Also, give me control of the emergency engines in the belly area! ”

"Crash course?!" Hearing this order, the captain of the "Dawn" hurriedly grabbed the ship's radio communicator and said loudly, "Attention to the whole ship, attention to the whole ship!" Impact Alert! Impact Alert! All personnel secure themselves and their surroundings, and all personnel secure themselves and their surroundings! ”

After making a ship-wide announcement, the captain looked at Tagate: "Colonel, don't you use that kind of suicide attack, right?" ”

"Of course it's not a suicide attempt, didn't I say it, I wouldn't consider dying with them." Staring at the electronic watch in his hand, Tagate replied without raising his head, "I'm going to kill that ship, but I don't plan to put myself in it." ”

Finding that the human warship did not fire, but accelerated again and rushed towards its own side at high speed, although the Sijing people on the planetary assault mothership were a little surprised, they quickly reacted, and while adjusting the hull, they shot with plasma cannons in the direction where the "Dawn" flew from.

But it didn't leave to maneuver to evade, probably because it was afraid that the "Dawn" collision was just a cover, the purpose was to force them out of place so that they could directly attack the ring ship. So this planetary assault carrier made its bow face the "Aurora", and it looked like it was going to collide directly with the "Aurora" in place.

At a distance of 1,800 kilometers, the "Aurora" flew at a speed of 20 kilometers per second, and it only took a minute and a half theoretical time to crash into the planetary assault mothership.

After the planetary assault carrier faced the bow of the "Dawn", the bow began to gather energy, and its main weapon, the high-energy plasma beam, was about to be launched.

Just as the plasma glow appeared on the bow of the ship and the weapons were about to be launched, Colonel Tagate activated the emergency jet rocket engine of the Aurora in the belly area of the ship. When it was sailing forward rapidly, it was pushed upward by another thrust, and the resulting huge tremors immediately spread throughout the ship -- if it were not for the captain's advance warning, I am afraid that there would have been a lot of non-combat attrition on the "Aurora" all of a sudden.

The high-energy beam instantly penetrated the distance between the two ships and passed underneath the "Aurora".

"That's why I don't like coaxial weapons very much, although they are very powerful, but the hit rate against moving targets is too low." Releasing his hand from the start button of the emergency jet engine, Colonel Tagate glanced at the captain and said, "Until there are enough of them to cover the target's area, coaxial weapons are a chicken rib. ”

"So you've been suggesting a movable concentrator at the expense of reducing the power of the gun?" The captain asked.

"Otherwise, the coaxial weapon will be cancelled directly, and all the energy will be supplied to other weapons." "However, it was thought that coaxial weapons could be used against fixed targets, so they didn't agree with me." Helmsman, the jet engine on the back of the ship kicks in, allowing us to return to the original crash course. ”

"I just heard that the brigadier general plans to replace all the Kodiak-class upper magnetic rail cannons with laser cannons when he returns?"

"That's right, there is this plan, after all, in space, the hit rate of light-speed weapons is still more guaranteed. However, after descending to the atmosphere, laser weapons will be affected to a certain extent, but they are not as effective as the magnetic railgun that can be ejected. So it's a dilemma, and it depends on how it decides. ”

"Sir, two hundred kilometers from the enemy ship!" As the two were talking, the radarman's report alerted them, and Tagate returned to the electronic watch in his hand.

"Five...... Four ......" looked at the jumping numbers on the electronic watch, and Tagate said the countdown aloud, and at the same time put his hand on the launch button of the coaxial pulse laser cannon, "...... Three...... Two...... One! ”

When he counted to the last number, the palm on the launch button pressed hard - the coaxial pulse laser cannon in the bow of the "Dawn" that had been kept in a charged state violently spewed out a dazzling beam of light, piercing straight at the Sijing Planetary Assault Mothership!

At the same time, because the order for emergency steering had been given before, after Targate counted to one, the helmsman of the "Dawn" also activated the emergency jet engine on the right rear of the hull, and the stern of the entire battleship was centered on the bow of the ship, drawing a large angle arc, coupled with the original straight line acceleration, the battleship was horizontal!

But the laser cannon has been launched, and after the deadly high-energy beam pierces the planetary assault mothership, due to the transverse movement of the hull as the base, the laser is like cutting a fish, directly cutting a large hole in the side of the planetary assault mothership, and the length of the wound even reaches two-thirds of the total length of the planetary assault mothership!

The flames immediately erupted from the breach that was equivalent to cutting the planetary assault mothership in two, and then quickly spread to the entire ship, and three seconds later, the giant ship of the Sijing people, which had been motionless after being cut by the laser, disappeared into a sea of fire that erupted outward!

"Colonel, I think this ship will have to be overhauled once we get back!" In this way, the captain of the "Dawn" said to Tagate in a tone that he didn't know whether to cry or laugh, "If you play like this, I think the keels may be affected!" ”

"It's okay, we've already annihilated a mobile fleet of the Sijing people, and I don't think we need to attack the whole fleet again in the next time!" Tagate replied, "Assuming Commodore Towin can get rid of that ring ship, of course!" (To be continued.) )
