Chapter 19 Avoid the edge

"Was that an electron cannon just now?" Although he was the main hero of the police and the correct command, it was the first time that Haag had seen this legendary weapon. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Seriously, if there was no warning of a "sense of crisis", even if he was told that the other party had used an electron cannon to attack, he would not have known that the battleship could not stay in the shadow zone.

After getting out of the mobile suit cockpit at the same time as Haag, Feng Yu couldn't help but float towards him in weightlessness and gave the other party a big hug. When he encountered galactic pirates blocking his way during the voyage to the galaxy last year, he never thought that the prisoner he captured casually would be a talent who could repeatedly save the "Storm" in critical moments, and he was a rare blessing.

Although Haag was a little flattered by Fengyu's sudden hug, he also felt a sense of identity and belonging. Being able to get the trust and reliance of "Storm", the first pilot today, he feels that his career as a pilot has been very successful. At the same time, he was also glad to be able to meet Fengyu when he was about to retire, and thus gained the second youth and the pinnacle of his life.

The two briefly hugged and quickly went to the bridge to pay attention to the situation behind them.

Although it escaped the first round of shelling by the Kimek convoy, it did not mean that the "Tempest" was safe.

Although the positive electron cannon works a little differently from the conventional particle cannon, it requires a special positive electron generator to store energy, and then when the positive electrons are sufficient, it takes a minute to accelerate the positive electrons in the fire department through a small particle accelerator before it is launched.

The positive electron is a dangerous goods that cannot be stored for a long time, and the battleship equipped with this weapon will only turn on the positive electron generator for energy storage when the war or the state of war is imminent, and after the war, it must take the initiative to neutralize or release these antiparticles, otherwise it is a huge danger to stay on the ship.

Previously, since the appearance of the "Tempest", the battleships of the Kimek escort have turned on the positive electron generator, and after ten minutes of energy accumulation, they have accumulated enough positive electrons to fire three cannons. That's about three minutes on average to accumulate the amount of positive electrons needed for one emission.

That is, before the "Tempest" left the battlefield, it had to withstand at least three or four rounds of shelling.

In the face of this weapon against which even the R particle shield cannot be defended, evasion is the only way. So Luo Yunxi directly ordered the curvature engine to be warmed up, and entered the curvature flight five minutes later.

This plan has been approved by Fengyu. With the current situation of the "Tempest", it is impossible to fight the Kimek escort at all, so it is better to avoid its edge for the time being, and wait until the appropriate tactics are formulated before making a comeback.

Of course, Feng Yu didn't plan to run far, he was just going to hide behind the first planet for half a day and a day, and he would attack back immediately after brainstorming and coming up with countermeasures.

In order to reduce the cross-sectional area of the Tempest exposed to the Kimek escort's field of vision, the battleship had completed a 180-degree turn and was sailing away from the L4 base with all its might. Beside it, Storm 3 was not recovered, but continued to cruise through space.

It was precisely because the No. 3 aircraft had been active in space that the Kimek escort did not dare to let the MG group get out of the cover of the battleship's fire to pursue the "Tempest". In fact, the "Tempest" was not afraid of the siege of ordinary pilots, at least the top ace pilots could break through Arthur's "Bloom" side turret attack. Just because GMP people are in good physical condition doesn't mean they have the ability to pose a real threat to the Tempest.

When the Tempest and the Kimek convoy flew in the same direction, the cross-section exposed to the other side's field of vision was only a circle with a diameter of 40 meters, which was an insignificant number relative to the distance between the two sides of 20,000 kilometers.

During the five minutes that the Tempest was warming up its curvature engine, the four rounds of Yang Electron Cannon fire from the Kimek Escort were never accurate. Haag, who came to the bridge with Fengyu, never sensed any danger, which is the most reliable proof.

After the life-saving evasion just now, the bridge crew of the "Storm" also trusted Haag more, and had already recognized the evasion instructions he made under special circumstances from the bottom of their hearts. And as long as he was on the bridge, everyone felt that the "Tempest" was an unsinkable battleship.

If it weren't for the fact that Haag was Fengyu's favorite general and was also very useful in mobile suit combat, many people would like to ask him to be assigned to the battleship command and control system.

Five minutes passed quickly, and the "Tempest", which had completed the engine warm-up, retrieved the No. 3 aircraft, and quickly disappeared into the airspace where the L4 base was located.

Although energy sensors were able to capture the Tempest's course ending on the far side of Planet One, the Kimek escort did not dare to pursue it. In order to enter curvature or jump flight, they have to release the positive electrons in the positive electron generator before they can fly in curvature.

In this way, after exiting the curvature flight, they have neither the attack force nor the protection of the R-particle shield, and if the "Tempest" launches a sneak attack on them at this time, it will not be a problem to sink one or two battleships. The only drawback of this weapon is the three-minute charging time of the Positive Electron Cannon, but compared to the particle cannon that has been sent into the cold by the Mobile Suits, this weapon at least saves the ship from the end of the road.

Since the enemy did not dare to pursue, the "Tempest" immediately seized the time to start a short rest.

The engineers whose jobs are located at the stern of the ship are given priority to be sent to the medical nutrition tank for physical conditioning because they are exposed to more nuclear radiation. After that, there were the personnel of the logistics department, the non-commissioned officers of the maintenance technology, the pilots, and finally the command and pilot personnel who were located in the bow of the ship with the least radiation damage. The course of treatment varies from a few hours to a few minutes for a more severe condition, and a few minutes for a milder disease. It will take at least a few days to heal everyone.

For the "Tempest", the treatment of personnel is not the current focus, and everyone's symptoms are not serious anyway, and it is not a big problem to delay treatment for a few days. The key is how to overcome the resistance of the Kimek escort, eliminate the GMP people, and sink the L4 base.

To this end, the "Storm" think tank once again gathered in the combat conference room to discuss solutions.

"I think we need to figure out one thing first, and that is whether the Kimek Guardian has any other hidden hole cards besides the second-generation R particle shield and the positive electron cannon." The question was raised by Second Officer Spencer, who was responsible for putting himself in the shoes of his opponents.

He asked this question very well, and it was about whether the Storm would encounter unpredictable difficulties again in its next attack on Base L4.

Feng Yu made a simple analysis of this, "First of all, let's talk about their MG, judging from the short battle in the previous battle, the UAC Federation has not been able to improve the combat capability of this body in a short period of time, otherwise in that situation, there is no reason for the GMP people not to use hidden means." From this, we can assume that even if they have any back-up in terms of mobile suits, it is nothing more than the QATG-02 potion. ā€

Haag and Folles, who had a one-time experience with the Kimek Escort, agreed. A few months have passed, and they have not felt any improvement in their opponents' strength. On the contrary, because Hag changed his costume as "Berserker", and Furs became more and more experienced in actual combat, they both felt that it was much easier to face the same enemy than at the beginning.

The rest of the world has little say in this matter, and can only assume that the views of these three are correct.

The next question is whether the ships of the Kimek convoy will be improved in other ways, which is also the question that bothers the "Tempest" the most.

On this issue, the only person who is qualified to express his opinion is Luo Yunxi, the captain of the "Storm", "Judging from the current situation, their warships have a second-generation R particle shield in defense that can resist the ship's sword of the 'Storm'; in terms of offense, the yang electron cannon is a huge threat to us." In addition, what a battleship can improve is nothing more than the power furnace and engine, which comes down to maneuverability. Judging by the speed at which the opponent sailed in previous battles, it did not break through the limit of 200 kilometers per second. ā€

"In other words, you don't think they're any improvement on the regular engine." In fact, Fengyu also feels the same way.

Again, if the Kimek Escort ships had improved their conventional engines, they would have shown themselves in the pursuit of the Tempest, and there was no need to hide and miss a great opportunity.

As for the jump engine that has the potential to be upgraded, it will not have a substantial impact on regional operations, and it is completely negligible.

In this case, the "Tempest" think tank began to formulate the tactics of the second operation on the basis of determining that the Kimek convoy only had two improvements: the second-generation R-particle shield and the positive electron gun.
