Woowoo......

The piercing sound of the battle siren suddenly sounded inside the base.

The emergency indicator flashes wildly and the siren beeps for a long time.

Quick as a wink.

The entire 'Wolfsburg' space complex was immediately transferred to a state of first-level combat readiness.

In the core and deepest part of the base, in the OCC Combat Service and Dispatch Integrated Command Center, the officer on duty rushed to the console and pressed the radio intercom.

"Level 1 Combat Readiness! Level 1 Combat Readiness!"

"This is not an exercise, a first-level response with live ammunition!"

In the sound of the announcement, in front of the rows of consoles, the personnel on duty who performed their duties immediately entered the combat state.

"Report! A combat order has been received from the Commander-in-Chief!"

"Report! The location of the target star field has been determined, and the call data in the star map database has been prepared!"

"Report! The Taishan and Huashan, which are on duty in port, the two interstellar destroyers can untie their cables and leave the port at any time!"

"Report! After the analysis of the combat command is completed, the task difficulty evaluation coefficient is 2C, is it activated in accordance with the emergency plan?"

……

The officer on duty did not hesitate at all, and immediately ordered: "Taishan and Huashan will go forward immediately, carry out remote guidance and defense tasks, and activate the emergency plan according to the 2C-level mission!"

"Understood!"

The non-commissioned officers responded loudly.

Suddenly, one after another instructions were quickly issued.

The 'Wolf Castle', suspended in space like a heavy metal castle, immediately entered an extremely busy but orderly state.

The first level of combat readiness means that all personnel in the base must get up and get dressed and rush to their respective posts within five minutes, and the crew of the starship anchored in the port is required to start the battleship within 10 minutes, leave the base within 15 minutes, and enter a state of combat alert deployment.

No way.

Level 1 combat readiness means that the enemy has launched an attack and war has broken out.

The speed of interstellar warfare is extremely fast, because the flight speed and attack speed of interstellar warships are faster than the speed of light, and for every second of delay, those hundreds of thousands of kilometers are gone.

Therefore, once we receive a battle situation or combat order, we must respond quickly and dispatch quickly, otherwise we will be easily beaten by the enemy in the space port.

It is precisely because of the high requirements for the efficiency of sorties that in the space port, each starship is very particular about the parking position, and there are independent covered bridges and passages connected to the space base, all of which are separated from each other by a certain distance.

In addition, during the docking of the battleship, not all crew members will enter the space base for rest, and will be divided into three shifts, some of them will be on duty in the battleship, some will rest in the ship, and the other part will enter the port base for rest.

In addition to such an arrangement of personnel, because the interstellar warships are all active in gravity-free space, the ammunition compartment designed and built with extremely high protection standards is very stable, so even in normal times, a lot of ammunition and materials are stored, and the food warehouse is regularly replaced with combat readiness living materials, and the spare parts warehouse is full at any time, all in case of accidents.

Like today's first-level combat readiness, that is the highest level.

There is no time to add supplies to the interstellar battleship, there is no time to supply more weapons, ammunition and living materials, so it will be dispatched quickly as soon as possible, and if the interstellar war takes a long time, it will be necessary to use large interstellar integrated supply ships for space replenishment in the future.

Therefore, once an emergency dispatch is needed, the crew of the ship living near the port can quickly board the ship through the penetration, and the crew on duty in the ship can quickly activate the major systems such as communication, navigation, power, and protection.

After the crew boarded the ship, they quickly cut off the connection with the port, and quickly dispatched after receiving the departure order, which greatly saved time and improved the efficiency of the sortie.

Although the Huaxia interstellar combat unit has not experienced interstellar warfare so far, its training level is extremely high, and the regulation is to dispatch within fifteen minutes, and it only took them less than eight minutes to complete the warship cluster sortie.

Moreover, the first to be dispatched were the two star destroyers whose crews had not disembarked and were on duty in port ready to dispatch at any time.

Less than ten minutes.

The two interstellar destroyers of Mount Tai and Huashan have already gone more than a million kilometers forward, and their forward alert is similar to standing guard and sentry, which is to create favorable conditions for more warships to sort, if the enemy has already attacked and killed, then they will desperately intercept them, even if they blow themselves up, they must also buy time for the main force to sortie.

Interstellar wars, that's how cruel they are.

But fortunately, this is not a 'real battle', and there is no large-scale enemy starfleet to kill, but they are still vigilant in strict accordance with the combat guidelines, not to mention that in the solar system now, interstellar traffic is busy, they can not be vigilant against the enemy, but also play a role in channeling traffic, so that passing interstellar ships pay attention to avoid collision.

And the main force of the fleet that was dispatched on a large scale, led by two interstellar battleships, followed up in a mighty way.

This time, the actual combat order is to destroy an asteroid with a diameter of three kilometers outside the Milky Way, which is set to be a great threat to the Milky Way and must be eliminated as soon as possible.

Qin Tian, as the commander-in-chief of the interstellar combat force, only gave them two hours.

Time is pressing, the two interstellar destroyers at the forefront immediately attacked as an advance force, but they did not go straight to the target, which is a big taboo in interstellar warfare, in case the other party sets up an ambush, wouldn't it be self-defeating?

Both Star Destroyers chose to jump away from other space and kept a certain distance from each other, so that even if one fell into the enemy's ambush, the other would be relatively safe.

Whoa!

Two brilliant halos bloomed beautifully in space.

Two massive interstellar destroyers disappeared into the starry sky, and it wasn't long before they appeared outside the galaxy, about 150,000 kilometers apart.

The asteroid that was the target of this operation was moving at a speed of 33 kilometers per second.

Asteroids are generally formed by supernova explosions, star collisions, and asteroid ruptures, with different diameters and sizes, and the basic components are gas, ice, rocks, etc., but the flight speed is not slow, so the destructive power is also very strong.

For example, meteors that occasionally appear in the earth are ultra-small asteroids that fall into the atmosphere due to the gravitational pull of the earth, and after they burn up with the atmosphere at high speed, a series of ion tails appear due to the high temperature, emitting dazzling light and being seen.

When a large number of ultra-asteroids fall into the earth and burst into pieces, pulling out a series of ion tails, it is a majestic meteor shower.

However, most of the ultra-asteroids will be ablated and vaporized in atmospheric friction, but there are also large ones with large masses and metals, which are not ablated and fall to the ground.

The smaller ones will smash a big crater and become a meteorite meteorite or something, while the larger ones will cause natural disasters if they collide with fierce potential energy.

Just like an asteroid that hit Siberia in 1908 with a diameter of more than 10 meters, the speed of the collision exceeded 30 kilometers per second, and the energy released was equivalent to hundreds of atomic bombs, so it hit a super crater and destroyed dozens of kilometers of surrounding forests.

And now.

This asteroid has a diameter of three kilometers and a mass of at least 100,000 tons, and if it really crashes into the earth at the current speed, then the earth's atmosphere is simply not enough to completely melt it, and at least there will be a huge volume of one or two kilometers in diameter and a huge mass of tens of thousands of tons.

What would an asteroid like a super-skyscraper slam into the Earth at a speed of more than 30 kilometers per second?

A large city of tens of millions will be destroyed in a few seconds, and the energy shock wave formed at the moment of collision can be like an autumn wind sweeping away leaves, with the collision site as the center of the circle, and suddenly pounce around, overturning all obstacles that block its progress, whether it is high-rise buildings or overpass cars.

This collision will inevitably form a super crater of at least tens of kilometers, and everything within a radius of two or three hundred kilometers will also be flattened, and the power is too great, and it will also cause a series of earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes and other natural disasters.

Therefore, if such a large asteroid hits the earth, then a country with a small territory may directly fall into the soul and directly destroy the country and the species.

And on the moon, which accompanies the earth day and night, why are there potholes?

It's not because there is no protection from the atmosphere, so no matter how large or small the asteroid is, whether the mass is high or low, once it encounters it, it can only be forced to go up, so it is hit into a lot of craters, and the terrain is rugged and abrupt.

It is precisely because of the great threat of asteroids that the human civilization on earth began to establish an observation and early warning system for asteroids as soon as they mastered space technology and knew how to use chemical fuel rockets to launch satellites into space.

To this day, preventing asteroids from hitting the Earth and other planets is still a constant and unoblivable task, especially those building space migration cities on the moon and Mars, and there are always large early warning radars, detection satellites and high-power laser defenders ready for 'reconnaissance-strike'.

At the moment, the asteroid, which is three kilometers in diameter, will not crash into the Milky Way in its orbit, let alone threaten the Earth.

But an order is an order!

Qin Tian asked them to destroy this asteroid within two hours, then they had to kill it!

After the two interstellar destroyers finished their space jump, they immediately launched a combat alert deployment, and at the same time the protective shield was opened, a number of reconnaissance vehicles were released to carry out combat reconnaissance of the surrounding star fields, and at the same time to carry out long-range mapping and remote sensing exploration of asteroids.

After ensuring the safety of the surrounding millions of square kilometers of star fields, the fleet's main warship cluster immediately entered the space and jumped, galloping, and with the interstellar battleship as the core of the operation, the interstellar frigate patrolling on alert at the far end, and the interstellar destroyer acting as a combat supplement and combat alert.

The asteroid in high-speed flight was quickly detected by various detection methods, and although it did not launch a counterattack, the two interstellar battleships still maintained sufficient combat vigilance.

Time passed minute by minute, Qin Tian only gave them two hours of combat time, and they had to kill them within the specified time, so after collecting and sorting out enough information and summarizing the enemy's information to confirm that it was correct, the combat operation began.

This is Qin Tian's first actual combat show after taking office, and no one knows if they can satisfy the new commander-in-chief.

But the combat mission cannot be delayed, and the military order is like a mountain, even if it is a stone, it will be destroyed!
