Chapter 827: The Battle of Kehanos (7)
The first offensive of the mixed fleet resulted in the damage of a Defender-class frigate, which had to retreat to the rear of the ship formation to avoid the tricky laser weapons.
Another Judge Knight-class destroyer's main gun was destroyed, but it still managed to move forward, and after entering the range of the fire control radar, it fired more than 30 anti-ship missiles and six deep-space torpedoes in one go.
On the side of the mixed fleet, there were a total of 20 warships, including 2 battleships, 2 heavy cruisers, 2 light cruisers, 5 destroyers, and 9 frigates, which was almost twice the strength of the "Mirror Light" and its escort fleet.
Because of the range advantage of laser weapons, the shipborne laser weapons belonging to the mixed fleet were fully charged, and when the second round of firing was carried out, the "Mirror Light" and the frigates around it began to counterattack.
As the target of the opponent's focus, the "Mirror Light" withstood most of the firepower, and the 10 frigates with varying degrees of damage were almost forgotten by the capital ships of the mixed fleet, and only the frigates symbolically put some pressure on them.
This was done not only because Mirrorlight was Henrietta's flagship, but for two other reasons. One, to save one's life, and two, to delay time.
As the second round of fire of the mixed fleet was coming to an end, the "Mirrorlight" seized the opportunity to open a gap in the shield, and the bow main gun was activated.
The plasma beam, which was more brilliant than the high-energy laser, landed on a Judge Knight-class destroyer, directly stabbing the hull of the ship, entering through the port side, piercing out on the starboard side, and disappearing into the deep space in the distance.
With just one blow, the Judge-class destroyer was seriously injured and lost its combat effectiveness and had to retreat to the rear of the formation for emergency repairs.
The people in the mixed fleet were startled, and finally realized their arrogance, thinking that the Skywalker Guards were already meat on the chopping block. They were slaughtered by others, but when the original reactor came online, the combat effectiveness of the "Mirror Light" really taught them a lesson, and they realized the complex state of mind of the captain of the improved Oracle-class battleship who was hiding behind the wreckage of the battleship just now and was killed by the main gun of the "Mirror Light".
So, in order to be able to live. They had to constantly suppress the Mirror's fire to ensure that the target's main gun did not have a chance to fire.
As for procrastination, it's very understandable. It will take time for Marquis Servis's "Black Steel" and its frigates to solve the "Night Glass", and it will take time for the "Apophis" to arrive here, and what they have to do is to win these times.
Yes, to see the "Mirrorlight" go deep alone, Rothga? Litton couldn't sit still, and no longer swept the formation. It was decided to dispatch the "Apophis" and take advantage of this great opportunity to gnaw the hard bone of the "Mirror Light".
They had a reason not to retreat, and Gilcott also had a reason to move forward, and the "Mirrorlight" ignored the suppression of fire from the opposite side and continued to fly forward.
The main gun could not find a good opportunity to open fire, as well as the secondary gun, and the missile launch system.
A Dark Knight-class light cruiser belonging to the Children of War was interfered with by a Skywalker Guard's Judge Knight-class destroyer and misplaced. Just exposed to the muzzle of the "Mirrorlight" port side plasma gun, a flash of light flashed. Accurately hit the armor in the bow of the ship.
If the target is a fifth-generation cruiser-class battleship, it will be difficult for the secondary guns of the "Mirror Light" to destroy it with one hit, and at most inflict heavy damage.
Many people were not surprised that the Dark Knight-class light cruiser was not sunk by artillery fire, but the scene that appeared after the heat radiation and light storm created by the plasma beam faded away made many people look surprised and puzzled. Among them are Antley, Oscar, Gilcoat and others.
The bow armor of the Dark Knight-class light cruiser was cut through a large hole by the plasma beam. The fiery red at the edge was rapidly cooling under the icy void. The red is not dazzling, what is dazzling is the brilliance inside the hole.
It did not implode and fire like the previous battleships that were damaged by secondary guns, and many incompletely burned debris and ship parts gushed out under the action of the internal and external pressure difference, and the color inside was a little blue. It's a little white, like flowing lake water.
"What's that?" Oscar stared at the close-up on the big screen No. 5, puzzled.
No one could answer this question, and everyone present had more or less doubtful expressions on their faces, including Tang Lin and Bai Hao.
Only Henrietta, as if thinking of something, turned a little gloomy.
In the eyes of many military fans in the United Kingdom of Turranks, the warship belonging to the Children of War is superior to the battleships belonging to the Skywalker Guards of the same specification, and the attack power is higher, so it is generally believed that the combat effectiveness of the Children of War is still above the Skywalker Guards, which is why the Skywalker Guards have more than 320 capital warships, but the Children of War only have 270 capital warships, because Henrietta can only use the numerical advantage to balance the quality gap.
Of course, a few days ago, the Tang side was attacked on the Harlem Bridge outside the Hal Palace, and after the Guardian-class frigate of the Skywalker Guard exposed a new type of heat-resistant armor, there were many debates on major military forums about which is stronger or weaker between the Skywalker Guard and the Children of War, and most people believe that this new type of heat-resistant armor has greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the Skywalker Guards, and even surpassed the Children of War. After all, this heat-resistant armor is very targeted, and it is a new technology developed by Henrietta specifically to counter laser weapons.
Can a tiger with a tooth extracted still be called a tiger?
As a result, many of those who had previously touted the Children of War turned into the trenches of the Skywalker Guard.
The asymmetry of information will lead people by the nose in many cases, and even people like Henrietta have to sigh heartily for the forbearance and progress of Praise Will.
The Skywalker Guard can invest a lot of manpower and material resources in the research and development of heat-resistant armor specifically for laser weapons, and Zanggowell has also made two preparations, vigorously promoting the miniaturization, mass production, and practical use of laser weapons, while also making a miraculous improvement to the defense system of the battleship.
Of course, according to Tang Fang, a large part of the credit for the scientific and technological achievements made by the new forces in recent years is due to Mr. J's technical support, whether it is the laser weapons of the initial elite troops, or the natural disaster system, and the St. George-level power armor, the core technology comes from the God Armament.
The old man didn't know if the aqua blue light screen in the armor compartment of the Dark Knight-class light cruiser was the shield technology provided by the God Armament, but it was undeniable that it was a very novel design concept.
As we all know, magnetic shields are mostly deployed on large ships such as heavy cruisers, battleships, and aircraft carriers. or on a mothership-class ship to intercept an attack by a projectile weapon.
However, the military industrial departments of the countries in the Hillenbuir region are well aware that in the near future, energy-based weapons will go out of the laboratory and become one of the important players on the battlefield, comparable. It even replaces projectile weapons.
At that time, the effect of the magnetic shield will obviously be greatly weakened, and it will not be able to ensure the safety of the ship against the attack of energy weapons.
In order to cope with the future situation, and inspired by the Ipsilon Energy Shield, countries are investing a lot of financial and human resources in the research and development of new shields, striving to create a strategic advantage for their own side and prepare for future use.
It's like the heat-resistant armor that the old-school forces have put a lot of effort into developing. It is used to deal with the absolute superiority of the new forces in laser weapons, and to balance the difference in combat effectiveness between the two sides.
However, it now appears that Zanggowell is not a fuel-efficient lamp either, and is also working on another form of shield.
When the Tang side was attacked on the Harlem Bridge, in order to warn Zangowell not to act rashly, the Defender-class frigate deliberately leaked the existence of heat-resistant armor, but he didn't expect the warship of the Children of War to be even more desperate. Whether it's the starting point or the pursuit. All taller than the Skywalker Guards - they didn't put much effort into the armor at all, but they did it all in one step, directly setting their sights on the energy shield.
According to some theoretical bases and successful experiments put forward by the scientific community, the easiest shield mode for human beings to achieve in the future is to apply the magnetic confinement mechanism to use special particles to form a protective film on the outside of the hull. Or some kind of force field, which is used to neutralize and disperse the energy carried by the ray weapon, or even to catapult the physical projectile and destroy the missile jet.
Of course, this is only the prototype of an energy-efficient mass-produced shield technology that is generally accepted by the scientific community, but there are actually some more perverted ideas. Some are classified as brain holes, such as temporal effect fields, such as black hole shields, and some have been applied in reality. For example, the space-time warping device is used to burn zero elements to form an offset shield - when Tang was in the Megal star system, Sigma Shipyard was equipped with such a money-burning system, which could burn more than 60 tons of zero elements in one minute. Not to mention the large size of the space-time warping device, one such device is comparable to a small space station, and it is difficult to miniaturize it, let alone integrate it into a warship system. Taking a step back, even if it is possible to achieve miniaturization and parallel loading of warships, a thousand-class conventional fleet will spend almost 50,000 tons of zero elements in one hour of battle.
What is the concept of 50,000 tons of zero element? 5 Abbather's gas consumption! 5 Behemoths + 5000 population cap gas consumption!
You know, even the Ipsilons wouldn't squander it like that. Therefore, this kind of actual technology is actually no different from the Arabian Nights.
Anyway, the scientific community has been arguing for so many years, and some old guys are even blushing and having thick necks because of this, and they almost have to roll up their sleeves to fight, and most people still tend to use the magnetic confinement mechanism to build a particle barrier as the research direction of energy shield.
But the biggest challenge for this shield is how to use the magnetic confinement mechanism to regulate the particles, form an energy barrier, or molecular colloid, to defend against incoming ray attacks.
With the current scientific and technological level of the countries in the Xirenbuir region, there are still some ways and directions to engage in shipborne plasma weapons, mass production of laser cannons, and miniaturization of fusion reactors, but to make energy particles obedient and obedient, and become a shield that can resist artillery attacks, its research and development process is like Tang Sanzang's path to learn from the West, and it has not yet passed the Yumen Pass.
How to prepare shield particles, how to get the external magnetic confinement unit, and the central computer used to control the shield system has become a major problem for scientists, so that the research of energy shields has been difficult, and most people hope that the Epsilon ruins can be inspired by the complete shield equipment to be used to perfect the artificial energy shield.
But at a time when other countries' research in this area was almost at a standstill, Zanggowell, inspired by Mr. J, went the opposite way, putting the shield that should have been on the outside and on the inside.
The external energy shield is limited by the technical level, and it cannot make qualified magnetic restraint devices and control systems, but what if you put them inside? It is not difficult to embed a constantly flowing particle interlayer in the middle of the armor by arming God beyond the technological level of a sovereign state, but simply integrate a fusion reactor-grade magnetic confinement device into the inner and outer armor of the interlayer, inject pre-prepared heavy particles, and supplement it with an integrated distributed computer control network.
Take the Mirrorlight's plasma cannon as an example, it can ignore the magnetic shield and break the battleship's armor, but it can't easily break through the built-in energy shield. Although this kind of built-in energy shield has a fundamental difference and gap compared to the external energy shield, it is undeniable that it greatly enhances the ship's ability to resist thermal damage and blast damage.
Henrietta now finally knew that Tang Fang always showed a strange expression when he mentioned the God Armament, on the one hand, he criticized their copycat nature, and on the other hand, he admired the reason.
For this kind of design that makes people laugh and cry, but it is effective, he is also very speechless and admired.
Although I don't want to admit it, the Children of War, who are equipped with laser weapons and have a magnetic shield + built-in energy shield, already have an overwhelming advantage over his Skywalker Guard.
Zanggowell's strength exploded after receiving technical support from the Armed Forces of God. If it weren't for the fact that Tang Fang came to the United Kingdom of Tulanx because of the Duke of Congreve, from just to save people, to the current situation, and at Elena's canonization ceremony, he assassinated His Majesty the King in full view of everyone, and finally provoked such a big war that was enough to decide the future of this country, he would not have known about the existence of God's armed forces, and he would not have realized that the new forces had steadily surpassed the old forces militarily. They will purge their political enemies with lightning speed, and completely control the entire power of the country in the palm of their own hands.
A trace of cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he was suddenly very glad that Tang Fang was able to stab Zanggowell to death with a sword so recklessly, although it provoked a big war, but it also gave the people of the old-school forces a glimmer of life, if that young man did not come to the United Kingdom of Turanks, if he did not interfere in the political affairs of this country, and let the situation continue to be stable, it is conceivable that in the near future, he, Gilcott, Melol and other people, as well as their descendants, will face what kind of fate will be. (To be continued.) )
