On the other side, separated by a million kilometers, the People's Federation fleet maintains a distance of 10 kilometers from each other. The Dusk class is in the middle of a line, and the Leiyun class is arranged in two lines above and below to protect the gap. It looks like nine mahjong lines, all of which are battle lines facing the enemy head-on. formation.The line of the giant ship is more than 20 kilometers wide. The three Hammer of Dawn turrets arranged in steps on the front deck of the Dusk class fire a salvo at the enemy millions of kilometers away every 9 seconds. The 27 capital ships have [-] guns. The scene of the main gun salvo was spectacular, but the salvo stopped after two or three rounds.

Because... it doesn't make sense!

The distance is too far, the Hammer of Dawn's lethality limit range is 30 kilometers per light second, and if it is farther away, it will lose energy through diffraction, which is like a flashlight-this is not self-deprecating but reality. Warning, but the reality is that the other party ignored the warning at all. On the contrary, they still did not change their course, and even accelerated their speed and rushed towards Renlian in a daze!

"Will you start a war...Okay, very good, then don't talk nonsense!"

Janot completely stabilized his mind, and he also sat back in the captain's chair. At the same time, an optical cable protruded from the back of the chair and was inserted into the interface on the back of the major general's head.System inspection, the signals from the radar, fire control and damage control personnel in the entire command room are directly connected to the major general's brain. After all, the transmission of consciousness is much faster than voice. The VI interface is directly connected to the Admiral's retina. At this moment, Janot doesn't seem to be sitting on the chair on the bridge. His perspective has directly transformed into the Dusk-class ship. The sensors of this battleship are his eyes. Everything in it is unobstructed!

Navigator: "Captain, distance: 100 million kilometers, relative speed 17 kilometers per hour, it is expected to enter the killing range of the Hammer of Dawn in four hours."

"Twilight stage deceleration, maintain minimum cruising speed and fill with LCL solution, we don't want to enter the asteroid belt."

Easy to turn at low speed, the Dusk-class is ready for over-limit maneuvers at any time, but the sudden explosive overload can crush people, so the spherical bridge began to inject artificial amniotic fluid, the principle does not need to be explained.This liquid can not only maintain the vital signs of human beings, but also add another layer of protection to the semi-independent space of the bridge. After all, there is no escape cabin in the center of the hull.

Weapons Officer: "The Hammer of Dawn pauses firing and is in the process of maintenance and adjustment. The rail secondary gun opens the gun door, and the missile silo is loaded with strategic warheads."

Chief Engineer: "The heat dissipation system is running well. The average temperature in the engine room is 800 degrees Celsius. The electrostatic storage is lower than the average value. The emergency heat dissipation device is on standby at any time."

Radar Officer: "Captain, the enemy ships have accelerated their actions and started to approach... Wait, strong graviton fluctuations have been observed!"

The signal was transmitted to the major general's mind, and the long-range optical and radar bands simultaneously captured the acceleration process, but immediately the radar officer shouted urgently: "The radar lost the target, repeat, the radar lost the target!"

"The optical remote tracking also lost the target, and the target no longer exists at the predetermined position!"

The major general roared: "Then search in all directions! Send observation drones around, they can't disappear, they must be somewhere..."

What about the enemy?Where did all those big ships go?Although I have guessed that the enemy has technology beyond our reach, it is too exaggerated. Is it invisible or...

At this moment, a signal came from the Spring of Sorrow electronic support ship [-] kilometers behind: "Attention all units, the gravitational wave detector of this ship found a space tunnel effect at coordinate **, and its physical parameters are consistent with the wormhole generator. They're probably trying to make a way straight into our faces!"

Install the wormhole generator on the spaceship?This is a good idea. The People's Federation had this plan in the past, but our wormhole generator is unstable and immature. It takes less than half a Scylla's energy to maintain the path leading to the MUV Earth, so the wormhole Generators are not listed as FTL primary options by fleets.

But I didn't expect that the opponent's FTL turned out to be wormhole technology. They must have found some way to save energy and space to make this technology practical. This made Major General Janot, who was still nervous just now, breathe a sigh of relief.

(A large number of FTLs cannot exist together to make the world view look like a sieve. The settings that can be integrated must be integrated. This is very important. If anyone comes to scold me because of this, I will not accept it.)

It turned out to be a short-distance FTL in the galaxy... Turning FTL into a tactic is worthy of being an old-fashioned interstellar civilization, but this point can also be achieved by launching the mass effect flight of the War Pendulum Fleet. Thanks to the Fountain of Sorrow, this An early warning ship full of engineers gathered all the most advanced detection methods of the People's Federation. Its reminder stabilized the morale of the fleet and allowed the major general to seize an opportunity.

They thought we wouldn't know, didn't know that they leaped nearly 95 kilometers to a range of less than [-] kilometers in front of us, and wanted to surprise us?

"Lock the target position, Hammer of Dawn is ready at full power!"

Digging a hole at both ends of the space is like folding the two ends of the paper so that the distance is shortened from the space. This is the wormhole and the main function of the impact point engine.Using the distortion point of gravity to "tear open" the space, a tunnel was opened at both ends, and the Zeus fleet naturally rushed into the wormhole under the gravity, and the time stopped for a moment, different lights shone on the front of the battleship, They jumped a distance of three light seconds in the blink of an eye, and the small boat of the rebel army was clearly shown in front of them—they were still there, probably wondering about the disappearance of their own side.

"The main gun battery salvo is ready, the missile salvo is ready—"

Lieutenant General Douglas said loudly, in the universe, these 12 giant steel ships turned the giant turrets above the ships respectively, and behind the long barrels, heavy solid shells were pushed into the barrels.The radar array was turned on at full power, and the closed vertical launch system was opened on the back deck of the armored destroyers. The loading device pushed the warheads of the intercontinental missiles with thick trunks out of the hole, and the radioactive signs of the nuclear bombs were clearly visible.

But suddenly, a strong light flashed from the front of the People's Federation Fleet!Arriving together with this strong light station, at the moment their sensors observed, 27 beams of light were aimed at and bombarded in the array of the Zeus fleet!

"Warning, Outer Armor Damaged... Prepare for Impact!"

The first thing to be hit by the torrent of photons was an armored destroyer located on the edge. The moment the mighty light beam touched its armor, a large amount of white steam erupted, and the dissolved molten iron bubbled and burst into eye-catching sparks.The front of the armored destroyer, which is not smaller than the Twilight class, vaporized a meter of composite armor in one breath and was pierced into the hull, piercing through the destroyer's lower equipment hangar. The two large transport planes vaporized before they lasted a second— — together with the fuel in the hangar and a group of pilots and ground crew turned into slag, and then the beam of light pierced through the side deck and pierced through.

The ship trembled, and the soldiers in the destroyer bridge fixed themselves on the seats and gritted their teeth for support. The temperature in the bridge rose sharply and the firefighting equipment was turned on, but the explosion in the hangar spread to the bridge along the floor.

"Idiot, why don't you vent the air out of the hangar!"

It's all right to scold, but everyone knows that you didn't give this order, captain. Just now you said that the carrier-based aircraft was ready to take off.However, the officer in charge endured the high temperature of the water vapor and glanced at the state of the hull, and couldn't help shouting.

"The front of the Halcomb was penetrated, the lower transport hangar was damaged, and a fire broke out inside the ship and reached the living area!"

As soon as the voice fell, another beam of light in the void brushed against the tail of the Halcomb at an oblique angle. The focusing effect of the Hammer of Dawn allowed the beam of light, which missed the first shot, to adjust its angle for two seconds to cut the battlefield like a laser knife. , although there is no impact of the first launch, but if the angle is good, it just brushes the hairline of the tail of the armored destroyer...

A raging fire erupted from the tail of the Halcomb. The nuclear warhead did not explode, but the fuel of the missile exploded. The impact caused the engine to deform and burst out a long line of fire.

"The Halcombe's engines were overloaded and shut down, incapacitated!"

"The wave was hit on the port side, and the explosion spread to the bridge. The captain fainted, and the first officer took over the command!"

A series of reports were urgently sent to the Cape Town, and a loud noise made Lieutenant General Douglas shake the command chair three times. The warning "Cape Town's frontal armor has been hit" echoed in my ears. From the outside, a beam of Dawn Hammer hit the flagship's nose head-on. Spraying out, it actually formed a force opposite to the ship's engine to oppress the armor behind.

The bombardment lasted for three seconds before it ended, but a terrifying hole was opened in the front of the flagship. The thickest frontal armor was actually cut open to reveal the internal facilities and a fire broke out. The artillery shot into Cape Town Inside the ship, the depressurized air engulfed more than a dozen crew members and debris and spewed out of the hole.

Damage control is in action. For this 600-meter giant ship, this wound is not fatal, but even the frontal armor can be penetrated. No matter how you look at it, it is not a thing that the lieutenant general said before. It is only used by children.

And just in front of the Cape Town, a big fireball suddenly appeared on the side of the battlecruiser "Courage". Reactor No. 5 is overloaded, and engine power has dropped by 30.00%!"

In an instant, the signal of a shelling destroyer disappeared from the command interface.

"Lieutenant General, we have lost the signal from the 'Sir Farr'!"

The dragonfly-shaped battleship in the void was hit on the bow with one shot, and then the other two shot through its long and narrow torso.None of these resulted in mortal wounds, but a fourth Hammer of Dawn followed, hitting the protruding part of the battleship, the bridge, just above the prow.

The blast-proof wall to resist explosives was useless before the Hammer of Dawn. The laser vaporized the protective shell and the only glass curtain wall that stopped it and the commanders in the ship.

We still have no way of knowing how the people on board reacted, because the light radiation incinerated everyone before the glass melted.In this battle, the Fountain of Sorrow of the People's League successfully discovered the short-distance FTL position of the enemy ship, and the first round of the pendulum fleet's full salvo achieved the first round of kills—the first official ship-to-ship battle in the history of the People's League The first victory will be recorded in the annals of history forever.

But everything has just begun. When the sky is ignited, how can it be so easily extinguished?

PS: The setting that can be made public now——After thinking carefully about the conservation of mass, Bugle found that we should not solidify the numericalization of weapons and thinking together.Remember how much output depends on how much input, and this conversion can never be one to one, but always one to zero.The power of weapons relying on fusion reactors cannot be stronger than nuclear bombs, and the power of weapons relying on antimatter energy cannot be stronger than antimatter. It is really a simple truth.

In the same way, the shield also depends on the energy input of the reactor, so the result is that the spear overwhelms the shield, because the energy transformed into an uncontrollable weapon must be greater than the controllable shield energy.

Today's push book is: "Constantinople Across the World"

Constantinople, which was supposed to fall under the siege of the Ottoman army, came to another world after a huge fog.

Here, the Roman Empire will be reborn!

Note: This work has a certain fantasy factor.

I have nothing to say, today is Tuesday, I will cry first, and tomorrow we will be ecstatic.

Chapter 24·Steel Rain

Bombarding a target at a distance of [-] kilometers is still a matter of chance, although it has been practiced by the People's Federation Fleet.Except that the Fountain of Sorrow locked onto the enemy's FTL landing site and let us take the lead, the enemy actually jumped in a daze without turning. It's silly.

"First hit, confirm the result!"

The radar officers in the War Pendulum Fleet shouted with joy, well played, beautifully played!The multiple observers sent out saw everything that happened 300 kilometers away, especially when the Hammer of Dawn pierced through the [-]-meter class that was almost the same size as the Dusk class.

"The enemy ship was observed to be on fire, and an aircraft similar to an escape pod took off... Disintegrated, the enemy ship died, repeat, the enemy ship died!"

The "Sir Falun" under the bombardment of several beams of light is probably because the reactor was overloaded, and the high-temperature plasma expanded unrestrainedly and burned into a small sun.This light shining in the asteroid belt not only illuminates the darkness, but also illuminates the hearts of the frontline soldiers and rear commanders of the People's Federation. Whether it is the Fleet General Administration, the Guard Command or the senior members of the council, they have repeatedly confirmed their All the video materials I saw in front of me let out a long sigh of relief, even those with the most steadfast beliefs felt like a stone fell to the ground.

What are we afraid of?What we are afraid of is the impotence caused by the earth's world colliding with water droplets... due to the large generation gap.Let the enemy be lenient, we have added too much psychological burden to ourselves, but we dare not not increase these burdens, after all we have to prepare for the worst... But, look what this is?

Speaker Michael clapped his hands and laughed: "The Hammer of Dawn is the greatest invention of our time, bar none!"

The power of the positron gun is trustworthy. It is an indestructible hammer in our hands. It seems that these invaders are not indestructible. If we can injure them, we will definitely kill them. If we can sink a ship, then Must be able to kill them all!

It's exciting, but it's not easy for one person.Fleet Commander Jenot suddenly issued an order: "The fleet maneuvers to ↗ orange area A3 degrees, disperses the formation, and advances 2!"

The belly engine of the Twilight-class battleship opened the baffle and ejected blue ion stream flames, which brought a strong lateral force and pushed the oblique angle of the battleship to the upper right. When a fusion fuel undergoes a quasi-fusion reaction in the combustion chamber——

boom!

I know that space is silent, I just describe this movement, the nuclear flames are longer than the battleship itself, like a rocket, the [-]-meter Dusk-class rushes out for a few kilometers with an eight-fold overload, this sudden acceleration is considered The crew members who were soaked in the solution almost turned black before their eyes.

And at the moment when the People's Federation Fleet just left, more than a dozen faint blue sub-light-speed light spots have followed the tail of the fleet and passed through the tail flame. Maybe not as fast as the speed of light, but it is still a few on the scale of [-] kilometers. In a matter of breath, it was so fast that in the residual vision, it was not a light spot but a blue beam of light!

And the nearest spot of light is only [-] kilometers away from the fleet!

what weapon is this?

People's Federation is still unclear, but the embarrassing situation is that after the full-power bombardment volley of the Hammer of Dawn is completed, despite the emergency heat dissipation, the ship has also fallen into a vacuum period of 2 minutes and cannot fire. The reason why Officer Jenot immediately asked to maneuver——The People’s Federation did take the initiative to win a battle, but Major General Janot knew that this meant nothing at all. His goal was always those four big ships, and he saw them with his own eyes Three full ships fired at one of the larger ships, and he was sure that the Hammer of Dawn would break through the defenses and these shots all hit, while the other side seemed to be unaffected at all.

Are bigger things harder to die?Maybe it's space...

The major general remained silent, watching those 600-meter giant ships turn their hedgehog-sized turrets on their upper decks, and turn to the People's Federation Fleet—not only that, but also those small ships, emerging from those small ships A series of flashes, together with the big ship, came together to form a rain of flashes!It's those faint blue light spots, wave after wave like torrential rain, and like meteors from the sky hitting the United Fleet!

"According to the exercise, the fleet will conduct irregular maneuvers between the expanded relative distances!"

The three horizontal fleets became more dispersed, and the distance between each other changed from 10 kilometers to 20 kilometers.The belly engine, which was still glowing just now, suddenly turned off, and then the back and side engines lit up and spewed flames. The Twilight class, which was drifting to the right, suddenly rolled down again, twirling like a paper clip and bringing the inside of the ship together. The crew made an action familiar to fighter pilots——

Nesterov wrestled, but it was giant space ships that made this movement, making people fear whether it would be torn apart by the terrifying inertia.But this is the least important part right now, because our warships will be overwhelmed by directed energy artillery fire if we don't do this!

Like walking through a meteor shower alone, those ominous spots of light chased the fleet's position.As the opponent is still accelerating crazily, the relative distance between the two fleets has reached 3 kilometers. As long as the weapons are fast enough, it is enough to calculate the lead time and carry out relatively accurate strikes. The first shot is simply to overwhelm the Renlian with numbers, hundreds of flash shells are fired every minute and every second, blocking the direction of Renlian's travel and limiting the space for the battleship to move.

But the good news is that the optical quantum computer of the People's Federation Fleet can always help the battleship find a route to avoid the bombardment.

what happened?If it's just this level of attack, then we can shoot at each other all day long!

The Hammer of Dawn is a weapon at the speed of light. As long as the distance is widened, no matter how fast or how predictable your shells are, they will not be able to keep up with our maneuvering speed. In space, 0.1 second is the distance difference of [-] meters. What do you use to fight us? ?

Weapons Officer: "The Hammer of Dawn has finished cooling down, and the countdown to recharging is 10.9..."

When the countdown reached 6, a warning from the Fountain of Sorrow suddenly rang through the captains' brains: "Warning, abnormal gravity detected!"

Thirty thousand kilometers away, the front openings of the bows of the three battlecruisers opened up an originally closed array. It removed the armor for shell protection and exposed a "mouth". An engine that runs through the entire hull and is directly connected to the impact point. The "axle gun"!

At this time, a large amount of energy was poured into the engine of this giant ship, but what this energy was guided was not concentrated, but a frontal converging, a channel, and erupted a wave towards the People's Federation Fleet maneuvering to avoid the barrage. An invisible but unstoppable force.

At the same time, the Hammer of Dawn was ready, and Janot slammed nine Twilight-class ships to fire at once, and 9 beams of light crossed the void and... and bent?Not only the bending, but also the wave-like ups and downs, as if the laser beam of the flashlight shot into the water is so distorted that none of the laser beams hit the enemy, but it allows us to see clearly what the enemy's offensive is.

A singularity... no, several gravitational singularities emanating from the shaft guns of those battleships. The abnormal gravity distorted the light in that area and even disturbed the electromagnetic waves of the enemy.It's like several invisible planets appearing on the opposite side of the People's Union, and the gravitational disturbance caused by each other spreads to the surroundings at the speed of light, pulling countless meteorites of various sizes from the asteroid belt towards this space together!

Gravitational singularity, we are not unfamiliar with this thing, the premise of artificial wormhole is to create a singularity effect to "hole" in space, the singularity will affect the surrounding gravity at the time of existence - but this group of earthlings Already mastered the art of turning this technology into a weapon?What else do they have that we don't know?

"Get ready for the shock!"

Prepare or not is the same, even this sentence is superfluous, because gravity is the speed of light, it has come... Gravitational singularity can only exist for a moment, and then when it disappears, you feel okay?If the singularity is a vortex, the water it swallows will burst out after the vortex disappears. The singularity was born in the muzzle of the enemy ship and also disappears in the muzzle, and under the guidance of the opponent, the gravitational shock that spreads at the speed of light , as if the rising tide bombarded in a long and narrow conical fan.

Douglas snorted in the middle: "I want to see how they withstand this gravity cannon. This blow is enough to destroy a three-kilometer space station!"

The "click" dusk-level armor cracked under the turmoil, and the carbonized lattice armor could resist any form of kinetic energy impact, but it couldn't resist the pull of its own "force".Tidal force is a wave, but it’s not that simple. The harder the metal is, the more it bends and deforms under the torrent. Everything it passes through collapses. The keel of the battleship bends, and the outer wall of the reactor ruptures. The magnetically confined plasma inside The body rushes out freely!And in the spherical bridge filled with LCL solution, the captain suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood, his organs were damaged, his brain was concussed, his eyes turned white and he passed out——

"Warning, the hull is 90.00% damaged, start the escape..."

The explosion vaporized the black box of the VI program into gas. The last command of VI was to disintegrate the Twilight-class battleship and let the semi-independent spherical bridge escape, but the explosion came faster than anything else, and the Twilight-class that was hit by the front collapsed instantly. , nothing could save the fate of this ship, and not only it, but three gravitational waves on the opposite side swept the left wing of the United Fleet formation. Jenot saw with his own eyes that the two Thunderclouds disintegrated from the beginning, broken as if scattered building blocks toys.

"Silent Crusade, be silent."

"Geometry, silence."

"Alicia, be silent."

"The Catharsis, the bridge has successfully escaped, and the vital signs of the crew are urgently requesting support!"

One Twilight-class ship, three Thundercloud-class ships, and one face-to-face were completely destroyed!The Serenity Expedition, whose reactor exploded, burned into space garbage, and was also pushed by the gravitational tide, forming a rain of steel and heading towards Sira.

Towards the hometown of Renlian.

Chapter 25·What is a trump card?

Battle losses of the Allied Defense Forces: 1 destroyer sank, 1 destroyer suffered severe damage and withdrew from the battle

People's Alliance Fleet damage: 1 Twilight class 3 Thundercloud class sunk

Force ratio - 24:10

The wreckage disintegrated... The bridge that escaped from the Catharsis is a room-sized ball, a bit like a gyroscope in a missile. Due to the preciousness of manpower, the People's Federation attaches great importance to the protection of the crew. In addition to preparing for a hard-on nuclear explosion, we also wanted to save some people from the fusion reaction, but we didn't expect the enemy to play this trick.

The Allied Defense Forces don't talk about martial arts. They first used unknown luminous high-speed ejection shells to deceive our people. Let us focus on avoiding artillery fire. The formation was not deployed, and then they used gravity cannons that we didn't expect to attack!That's a gravity weapon, a gravity weapon that strikes at the speed of light, how can we prepare for something we don't know?

But ignorance may not be a sin, but the immediate author of death.The gravity wave restrained by the enemy warship completely ignores the armor of the United battleship. The three-layer carbonized lattice armor and the nano-ceramic armor are crushed by their own weight due to the uneven force of their own under the impact of the surging tidal force. Layers of defense are useless, and the stronger the object, the greater the impact - the 300-meter-long keel of the Dusk-class can withstand the impact of the fusion engine, and it is the cutting-edge material science of the People's Federation, which can be called an Optimus Prime!But under the gravity wave, it instantly twisted into a twist...

You can’t see anything where the gravity cannon passes, and we know nothing about the gravitational fluctuations detected on the Fountain of Sorrow—“The strength of the enemy’s gravity weapon decreases sharply with the range, and it drops to an appreciable level at 40 kilometers away. The degree of neglect... Commander, this is a close-range strike weapon, it is recommended to keep a distance from the enemy ship!"

Pulling the distance?

Jenot stared at the enemy fleet 40 kilometers away and thought for less than a second before rejecting this idea.Stay away, don't mention amateur advice!Unless the mass effect flight is activated to escape from this area, it is a joke to rely on the engine to accelerate. For a safe distance of [-] kilometers, people chase and fight all the way?

Stupid, the acceleration of the enemy ship is higher than that of our ship!

Their armor is stronger than ours, they have weapons and firepower that we can't resist, and there may be more unknown information. This war may have just begun, but commanders can't just let their ideas go. How to fight and how to win is the top priority .They are a lonely fleet and the only fleet force with combat effectiveness. If they are exhausted here, Scylla will be in danger.

But between Sira and the moon, the Human Federation still has a reserve force. The Human Federation has spent more than ten years building a silver-white ring belt military defense network near the orbit. With the support of the defense system, the chances of winning the battle will be much higher and the losses will be less. a lot of...

"Snapped!"

Gernot slapped himself, it was hard and painful, but only the pain could wake him up—what the hell happened to him, was he frightened by the power of the gravity cannon? thing!
