447 Anticlimactic
Ye Fei pursed his lips disdainfully: "If it's a giant beast, even if the main cannon salvo is not necessarily useful, don't underestimate these strange cosmic creatures." β
"Understood, are you still fighting?" Scissors asked expectantly.
"If you have a advantage, you don't take advantage of it, it's a bastard, give me a hard beating!" Ye Fei did not hesitate to give the order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
In order to improve the efficiency of the attack, the scissors tested the dispersion of firepower, splitting a laser beam into two and dividing two different targets, although the energy intensity was reduced by half, it was still able to destroy the sea urchin, but it had to be irradiated for at least seven seconds to completely destroy a sea urchin.
The scissors dispersed the laser again, and fired three or four laser cannons together, but the laser with another layer of power hit the sea urchin for more than ten seconds and still failed to destroy the enemy ship.
Due to the failure of the laser, the Aquila's optics accidentally captured detailed images of the sea urchins being destroyed.
When the laser hits the sea urchin, the sharp spines on the enemy ship suddenly fall like a wheat field swept by the wind, clinging to the surface of the enemy ship, and the skin of the parasitic small fish is tightly obscured. Although the spurs showed signs of vaporization under the continuous irradiation of the laser, after the laser cannon was irradiated for more than ten seconds, the spurs did not suffer fatal damage, and once the laser disappeared, it would immediately re-erect.
In those places where the sharp spines can't cover it, the epidermis of the small fish quickly vaporizes, and after the epidermis disappears, it is the turn of various tissues inside.
Obviously, this parasitic spiny is very tough, and its strength is far greater than that of the small fish itself.
This discovery made Ye Fei's eyes shine. Immediately adjust the plan and order the scissors to give priority to attacking those sea urchin warships that have just been parasitized.
He had immediately realized that the sharp thorns on the sea urchin ships were very valuable for research, but unfortunately, all the sea urchin ships hit by the Aquila had turned into cosmic dust, and there was no remnant of the sharp thorns to be found. And then again, the sea urchin ship is so weird that even if he can find the remaining thorns, he won't bring such a dangerous thing back to his own warship.
The surface of the sea urchin warship is not full of sharp thorns, the old sea urchin ship has a lot of sharp spines on the surface, which can completely cover the entire surface, but the number of sharp thorns on the surface of the new sea urchin ship is far lower than that of the old individual. Even if all the benefits are lodging. It also only covers about two-thirds of the epidermis.
The Aquila's continuous strikes were fruitful, destroying hundreds of enemy ships in a short time.
Even counting the newly parasitic sea urchin warships, the total number of enemy troops was only about five hundred, and one-fifth was destroyed at once. How dare the remaining enemy ships continue to stay. Suddenly turned into birds and beasts.
Scissors shot again and again. But they only had time to destroy a dozen enemy ships, and the remaining enemy ships sprang around irregularly like rats that had blown up their nests, and each one desperately moved away from the Aquila.
It was originally just a tentative attack. The results of the battle have exceeded expectations, and if the battle continues, it will not only take time and effort, but the results will not be guaranteed, and the transaction of losing money will naturally not be done, Ye Fei immediately ordered to stop the pursuit.
"Call the Aquila, hear it, please answerβ" The Aquila, which had stopped its pursuit, suddenly gave an unfamiliar signal.
"I'm the Aquila." Ye Fei replied with a frown.
Under normal circumstances, the communication system will directly mark the identity of the other party, but this time no identity information was received. Although he couldn't figure out who was on the other side, the resonance communication device had to be transferred through the local communication center, and any communication that could be accessed must be his own people.
"Aquila, I'm Colonel Clark, the U.S. Liaison Officer of the Allied Coordination Office, and I want Captain Ye to stop the attack immediately!" The self-proclaimed American colonel Clark is unusually fluent in Chinese, and his words are more eloquent than Ye Fei's.
It's a pity that he used a pleading sentence, but the tone was very strong, and it sounded very out of tune.
"Why? The warships of the Chinese Celestial Forces are not yet under the command of the Americans. The Aquila had stopped attacking, but Ye Fei naturally refused to tell him the truth.
"Captain Ye, we know that your warship is very strong, but we have made full preparations in advance to eliminate these alien people, and if we don't show a little passable results, our fleet will not be able to account to the taxpayers." Colonel Clark was obviously explaining, but his tone was still so blunt, blind to his accurate pronunciation.
In fact, there is nothing difficult to understand, after all, the Yankees and the Chinese side are potential adversaries, if Colonel Clark speaks directly in the tone of a request, if the matter gets out, it will immediately be questioned by the domestic public, and the US military will 100 percent fall into a very backsliding situation, so even if it is a request, it must be very tough, so as not to be true.
"What's my business?" Ye Fei didn't understand the twists and turns, and only thought that Clark didn't learn Chinese.
"We are allies." Clark said.
Ye Fei didn't answer Clark's words, and pondered vigorously how the Americans' communications could be directly connected to the Aquila. However, he had already given the order for a truce, and the Aquila had stopped moving forward by this time, and was about to turn around.
Clark mistakenly thought that it was Ye Fei's bad answer, and chose to default directly, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, Ye Fei didn't want to answer him at all.
Before Ye Fei could come up with a reason, a large area of colorful light suddenly appeared in the void about a light second away, and a moment later, dozens of warships belonging to the American Starfleet broke away from the speed of light.
Immediately after that, a colorful light appeared behind the American fleet, and the Russian fleet was not far behind, and also appeared in this star field.
More than fifty battleships lined up in battle arrays silently crossed the Aquila, and the army approached the crumbling bone mound.
Ruan Peng pouted disdainfully: "It's really fucking cheap, let's force the bone mound out, what's the matter with them coming to pick peaches?" β
"Don't you understand this?" Jiang Xue sneered, "They weren't in a hurry when we didn't move, we would cripple the bone mound as soon as we made a move, if they didn't do it again, they wouldn't even have to drink the soup, how would they explain to the country at that time?" β
"Jiang Xue is right, isn't there such a sentence. War is a continuation of politics, and what is the matter with the fleet that took so much effort to build, and went back in ashes without even touching the edges of the outer bones? Don't their governments want to do it anymore? Ye Fei said approvingly.
The Chinese Expeditionary Force has made great achievements in war, and it is entirely possible to think only about how to fight and leave those complicated political issues to local politicians. However, the United States and Russia have not had any record of success, and both the military and the government urgently need a brilliant victory to stabilize the unstable situation.
From this point of view alone, the European countries, which have not been able to build a space army, have taken advantage of a small advantage.
"If you want me to say, let's wait until they also have light-speed torpedoes, and then talk about how to stop the bone mound." Scissors says the most important reason.
"How?" Ruan Peng asked curiously.
"It's nothing. The Russians have not been able to build a magnetic engine until now. You can't make a light-speed torpedo at all, how do you let them force the bone mound out? Ye Fei said with a smile.
"What about the Americans?"
"I don't know." Ye Fei said, "It is said that our faster-than-light technique was obtained from the Americans, and it is impossible for them to not be able to build light-speed torpedoes." Maybe they have it on their battleships right now. I just don't have a chance to use it. β
Scissors wasted no time in interjecting and saying: "The battle process of our expeditionary force is not deliberately secret. The bombardment of bone graves with light-speed torpedoes is not a secret, and the Americans must have been studying it even if they haven't it yet. It won't take long for me to come up with it......"
As he spoke, the U.S. and Russian fleets approached the bone mound, and the second and fourth fleets of the expeditionary force also appeared on the battlefield, but the Chinese fleet did not approach the bone mound and stopped far behind like an overseer.
"Ye Fei, good job." Zheng Guo gave a thumbs up in the newsletter and praised, "The Aquila is a secret weapon. β
"You've won a prize." Ye Fei said modestly, "I just took advantage of the range." β
He briefly recounted the situation of destroying the sea urchin warship, emphasizing that the main guns of the expeditionary force needed at least five to six guns to gather fire together to be sure of destroying the sea urchins.
Zheng Guo said that he would convey the news to the headquarters and the fleets in the name of Ye Fei, and the two said a few more words, and the United States and Russia combined fleets were only about a light second away from the bone mound, and a large number of small fish ships suddenly flew out of the bone mound, unfolded a dense fleet, and began to hedge the warships without showing weakness.
The warships of the United States and Russia immediately fired a string of missiles that were constantly rotating and winding with each other in flight, and a huge number of missiles were pushed forward like a wall, and at the same time, the Russian laser cannon began to wield, and the laser shot quickly out of the enemy's army, and the enemy's front line immediately vaporized hundreds of small fish.
"How is it still a recoil engine?" Scissors was shocked when they saw the missiles fired by the Russians.
The missiles of the Chinese Expeditionary Force have long been switched to magnetic engines that are safe and fast, but I did not expect the Russians to use chemical-fueled recoil missiles. However, he quickly remembered that Ye Fei had just said that the Russians had not mastered the manufacture of magnetic engines, and it was not strange to use chemical missiles.
In fact, regardless of whether it is China or the United States and Russia, the real actual combat weapons are only laser cannons, electromagnetic guns, microwave cannons and missiles, and those weapons that only exist in the concept seem to be powerful and domineering, but the vast majority of them cannot be equipped with troops for various unsolvable reasons, and a small number of those with the potential to be equipped are rejected by the army because of cost or maintenance problems.
Therefore, there is not much new in the confrontation between the US-Russian combined fleet and the Outer Skeletons, and it can be regarded as a replica of the battle between the expeditionary force and the Outer Skeletons.
The first missiles burrowed into the large group of biological warships, and the balls of light of the nuclear explosion were one after another, illuminating a star field.
Ye Fei's eyes widened for a long time, staring at the American battleship on the battlefield and asked anxiously, "What about the Americans' neutron cannons?" Is it open? β
The scissors bared their teeth helplessly: "The laser can see it, but the neutron beam can't see it at all!" "There is no substance in the universe that produces the Tyndall phenomenon, and the laser cannot be directly observed with the naked eye, but the laser is indirectly observed by the instrument, and the scissors do not know how to detect the neutron beam in the tunnel.
The Americans' new weapons could not be observed, and the Russian warships were born from the Chinese warships, and Ye Fei, who was extremely disappointed, suddenly lost interest in continuing his views.
But the others are the opposite, even if the battle is a little monotonous, but they still watch attentively.
Scissors sighed in admiration: "I think the combat effectiveness of American warships is similar to that of the warships of the expeditionary force, and there is no problem in cleaning up the outer bones." β
"That's right." Ye Fei slouched. "Save dragging the Second Fleet on Proxima Centauri and give them this."
"You kid, you dare to say anything!" Zheng Guo's communication with the Aquila has not been disconnected, "This place is the gateway to the solar system, how can you say let it go?" β
"What's the door!" Ye Fei retorted, "The universe is so big, isn't it the same as going from which direction, avoiding Proxima Centauri, and flying directly into the solar system from other directions?" That is, the outer bone man is so rigid. β
"At least until the Exoskeletons are destroyed, Proxima Centauri is still a strategic location." Zheng Guo said. "I heard that the sixth, seventh, and eighth fleets are also about to be completed. At that time, the galaxies in other directions will definitely have to send fleets as well. β
"What a waste!" Ye Fei sighed.
The tactics of all-out defense seem to be able to form comprehensive protection, but this tactic also wastes a lot of manpower and material resources, and it makes people feel that a large number of warships are pinned down in various planetary systems near the solar system, which makes people feel that the gains outweigh the losses.
Ahead. The fleets of the United States and Russia have been separated. The use of speed has formed a flanking situation for the alien fleet. The Outer Bone Man could only rely on the huge numerical advantage to continuously launch a decisive charge.
I don't know if Lu Dao has studied the example of the expeditionary force, but the fleets of the United States and Russia invariably chose the guerrilla tactic of fighting while withdrawing after the biological warships approached. dragged the alien fleet, which was always unable to catch up, in a circle, a large number of small fish ships were annihilated by the firepower of the combined fleet in the process of going around in circles, and the broken fragments filled the war zone.
If this continues, it won't take long for the Combined Fleet to completely wipe out this outer bone group, but what is unexpected is that those escaped sea urchin ships suddenly rushed out and inserted directly into the rear of the Russian army, and one after another cells shot out from the tip of the sharp thorn, catching more than a dozen Russian warships by surprise.
After the strain hit the battleship, the liquid corroded the surface of the battleship, and in the blink of an eye, there were countless holes on the surface of the Russian ship.
Three or five, ten or eight are nothing, but after a while, at least three or five hundred holes were burned in the armor of the Russian ship that was attacked by sneak attack, and many of them actually hit the same position.
The "parasites" in the cells naturally cannot parasitize in battleships built of steel, but the vitality of these parasites is not weak, they are large, but their bodies are very soft, like octopuses on the earth.
Once inside the battleship, the parasites shrink and wander along the passages inside the ship, where they are met with no suspense in the dead of their crews.
The external firepower of the battleship is strong and ferocious, but the internal defense is pitifully weak, and there is no way to deal with these huge parasites, and the most effective means is to close the passage and stop the parasites from advancing.
What's even more terrifying is the devouring ability of these parasites, all organic matter is on their "recipes", two unlucky Russian battleships were drilled into the supply tank by parasites, and a large amount of food was devoured, as a result, the parasites developed into hard and sharp thorns directly inside the ship, instantly penetrating several decks, and the personnel on the ship were forced to abandon the ship and escape.
The Russian army immediately abandoned its intention to attack the Outer Skeleton and instead besieged the Sea Urchin warship.
A terrifying scene appeared, after the laser of the Russian warship hit the sea urchin, it was unable to destroy the sea urchin ship, and the microwave cannon was useless, only a missile carrying a nuclear warhead destroyed two sea urchins.
The tragic reality made the Russian commander immediately make the decision to withdraw from the battle, and the battleships covered each other and gradually withdrew, but fortunately, the sea urchins did not mean to pursue, but surrounded the American fleet that still killed and injured a large number of small fish!
The U.S. ship was alerted by the Russian army in time and withdrew from the battle before the sea urchin completed the encirclement.
It cannot but be said that it is a sad that the US-Russian coalition forces have to give up their battle plan to encircle and suppress the alien people because of a group of sea urchin warships--all the new warships that the two countries are currently forming are concentrated on Proxima Centauri, and neither the Yankees nor the Russians can afford to lose their warships.
As soon as the sea urchin battleship appeared, Ye Fei wanted to command the battleship to join the battle, but before the Aquila could make any move, the Russian army withdrew. Moreover, the sea urchin skillfully used the shooting angle of the Russian fleet to block the Aquila, forcing Ye Fei to shoot without a single shot.
If the Aquila sinks the warships of its allies, no matter how critical and urgent the situation at that time is, it will make the Chinese side fall into the whirlpool of public opinion and find it difficult to extricate itself.
The sea urchins that expelled the human warship did not leave, but launched an offensive on the spot, engaged in a grapple with the alien fleet, and constantly shot their spatins into the body of the biological warship.
A large number of small fish ships were hit by the squads, and the remaining small fish ships did not have time to clear the infected, and only held out for a short time, and the outer bone people chose to retreat, about half of the small fish ships successfully returned to the bone mound, and most of the remaining ones were destroyed by humans, and about one-fifth were infected by the strains of the sea urchin ships.
"What the fuck is going on?" Scissors stared blankly at the screen, bewildered.
"What else could it be? The sea urchin battleship is like a Siberian tiger grazing wild boar, and it must have regarded this biological battleship in the bone mound as the property in its own pocket. Ye Fei said.
The Siberian tiger is known as the wild boar herd in ancient legends, which means that the Siberian tiger will stalk a herd of wild boars for a long time, and hunt them as their own property for a long time as if they were herding.
"The Outer Bone Man can't do anything at all?" Scissors asks incredulously, "Aren't they wise?" β
"How do I know this?" Ye Fei sighed lightly, "I just know that if I don't destroy these sea urchin warships of unknown origin, I just want to kill this bone mound!" β
As he spoke, there was a new change on the battlefield, and after recovering all the biological warships, the damaged bone mound actually began to accelerate in reverse, no longer flying towards Proxima Centauri, but flying in the direction it came.
What do they want to do? Ye Fei's eyes widened in surprise. (To be continued......)
