Chapter Eighty-Seven: Battle One

At present, the bargaining chip in Zhang Yunfan's hand is this high-speed cruiser, and this active warship alone is enough to deal with the situation in front of him. However www.biquge.info it is a pity that due to some problems such as the lack of crew members, this battleship is completely unable to exert its full combat power.

The best way for large warships to deal with small warship groups is to stay out of their range and use their own firepower superiority to block and annihilate, but because there is no accompanying reconnaissance ship to report the specific location of the target for long-distance detection, it is difficult to carry out effective strikes in medium- and long-range combat by relying solely on the reconnaissance report of unmanned small exploration ships.

If it was a close-range battle, Zhang Yunfan did not go to the battleship alone to pick up dozens of warships when there was a shortage of personnel in the battleship's artillery and it was difficult to carry out scattered firepower.

Therefore, Zhang Yunfan began a series of operational arrangements according to his own situation. When everything is over, he hovers beside the high-speed channel of the universe where the Xinyu Gang fleet is located, quietly waiting for the opponent to come.

Soon, several unmanned reconnaissance ships on the periphery had detected the target fleet, but then lost their reaction one after another.

"Was it discovered? Have real skill! Zhang Yunfan looked at the dark surveillance screen and whispered. Then he asked Qianxue, who was in charge of detection, in a loud voice: "The other party still has the range of our naval guns?" ”

"A minute and a half to go!" Qianxue checked the approximate coordinates attached to the last reconnaissance ship and calculated the approximate distance.

"Oh!" Zhang Yunfan replied simply, and turned his gaze to the two sisters, Xuanyu and Xuanyi. "Are the two members of the fireteam ready? Warm up the ship's guns, the enemy is in range, fire immediately! ”

"Yes!" The two sisters immediately began to operate accordingly.

"Xiaoshuang, the battleship turns to 45 degrees and uses the battleship's maximum firepower to meet the enemy fleet!"

"Yes!" Gu Xishuang happily accepted the order.

"Distribute the firepower on these coordinates!" Zhang Yunfan turned the starry sky map in front of him, and with the last records of the movement pattern of the enemy fleet by the unmanned reconnaissance ship, he forcibly deduced several fixed points on the path that the local fleet must pass through, and marked them.

"Fire lock complete!" Xuan Yu was the first to complete the task, and Xuan Yi followed closely behind.

"Good!" Zhang Yunfan nodded, and then said. "When the battle officially begins, Xiaoxue will take over your dream's position, and I will act as an agent for the exploration mission, and Xuanyu Xuanyi will prepare to go out to fight!"

"Yes!"

A minute and a half passed quickly, and with Zhang Yunfan's order, 20 triple and 30 twin 356mm main guns on the high-speed cruiser, as well as a twin 500mm over-specification main gun at the bow of the ship, fired at several predetermined coordinate points at the same time.

Since he could not know the battle situation, Zhang Yunfan did not know whether the coordinates he calculated were accurate, but he himself did not doubt this at all, and now he was constantly adjusting the angle of the battleship's guns according to the latest calculation results, and pouring fire on the constantly updated coordinate points.

The battle lasted like this for five or six minutes, and the active detectors on the battleship finally detected the enemy fleet that was advancing at high speed.

"Report the enemy concoction!" As soon as Zhang Yunfan saw the radar reaction, he immediately asked.

"7 F-class, 2 D-class, 1 C-class, a total of nine warships!" Qianxue couldn't help but say excitedly. In those waves of attacks just now, most of the ships of the local fleet were directly destroyed. The rest of these remnants of the defeated army are simply unknown.

But Zhang Yunfan's brows were tight, this result had greatly exceeded his expectations, he didn't believe that there would be such an opponent at such a level. Then there is only one explanation left, the enemy divides the troops!

A small number of warships are used to drag the local action, and the large force directly makes a space jump, moves to the rear of the enemy, and carries out encirclement operations. This method of dividing troops is one of the most classic tactics in space fleet warfare. But this is obviously useless to Zhang Yunfan, who is proficient in tactics.

"Keep your distance from the enemy, stop firing, cool down the ship's guns, give me a back!" Zhang Yunfan easily adjusted the posture of the battleship, and sneered faintly in his heart. "Will this rotten tactic work for me? What a naivety! ”

He had already anticipated this situation, and had even figured out all the nearby locations suitable for space jumping, and made corresponding arrangements.

By this time, the surviving small fleet in front of the battleship had spotted the battleship and was rushing towards them at full speed.

Zhang Yunfan stepped down from the command platform, came to Qianxue's post, and said, "Xuanyu Xuanyi is ready to leave the ship, Xiaoxue, you go and take over their work!" ”

The opposing warships seemed to be in a hurry to entangle them, and the fleet advanced quickly, arriving in the blink of an eye

"Yes!" The three of them answered at the same time.

Zhang Yunfan sat in Qianxue's position, quickly operated the measuring instrument, and carefully calculated the distance between the two sides.

Soon, Xuanyu Xuanyi left the ship, and the two of them were possessed by spirit armor, and they quickly rushed towards the enemy fleet.

"Xiaoxue, the fleet's secondary guns are firing and covering them; The 1st to 10th main guns fire at the enemy! ”

In an instant, more than forty twin 115mm secondary guns on one side of the battleship opened fire at the same time, and ten main guns on the central axis also fired one after another. In the distance, an F-class and a D-class battleship could not dodge, and were directly taken away by this wave of attacks in an instant.

Of course, the opposing battleships also began to return fire accordingly, although the vitality of these battleships was not weak, and they were all equipped with 280mm caliber guns, but most of them were stopped by the protective shields of high-speed cruisers, and the hull received minimal damage.

This is the sadness of the confrontation between the light tan and the heavy tan, even if the firepower of the two sides is similar, when the light tan fights each other at a long distance, the light tan will often be hit into the soul by a shot, and the light tan can grind some marks on the heavy tan, it is not easy.

Seeing Xuan Yu and Xuan Yi successfully break into the enemy formation, Zhang Yunfan's heart settled. With the kind of weak self-defense firepower network composed of these few remaining warships, once it is close to the spirit armor, there is basically no chance of survival.

"I'll leave it to you! When the battle over there is over, I'll come back and pick you up! Zhang Yunfan sent a message to the two men who were fighting fiercely.

"Understood!" The two replied very briefly.

Before leaving, Zhang Yunfan watched the battle on this side again. Now, these warships have been completely entangled by the two, and they no longer care about approaching them, and they are hurriedly organizing self-defense firepower, encircling and suppressing the two mechs that are constantly moving in their formation.

And the battle rhythm of Xuanyu and Xuanyi was very fast, constantly looking for opportunities to strike in the flashing and moving, and in the blink of an eye, an F-class battleship was sunk by them. If this continued, within ten minutes, none of these battleships would be buried by the two of them in this star field.

"The battleship turns 75 degrees, leans forward 25 degrees, and moves towards the predetermined X area!" Zhang Yunfan judged the jump location of the Xinyu Gang's large force. Area X was the closest and easiest jump point to surround them, and he decided to move forward at this point and eliminate the roundabout fleet near the jump point.
