Chapter 992: The Destructive Power of Space-Based Weapons

NATO's determination to fight back was even firmer than Li Lan expected.

There is no way around it, because NATO cannot afford to lose the Pacific Fleet, nor can it afford to lose decisive naval power in the entire Indian and Pacific Oceans.

Without a navy to limit the Somali navy, once the Somali navy enters the Atlantic, it can almost declare the defeat of the NATO side of the war.

In the face of such a critical moment, Hillary Clinton, as the first female president of the United States, also showed unprecedented courage.

After receiving a notice from Harris, the weather center under the North American Air Defense Command also submitted a serious weather report.

Clinton immediately convened an emergency meeting to convey this crucial information to each of the allies.

The Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean have long been in a bitter relationship, and perhaps Somalia will not send troops to the Pacific, but it will definitely send troops to the Atlantic.

This is the time of desperate bets, and NATO must stop Somali meteorological weapons.

It could stop Somalia's heavily guarded meteorological weapons, and the whole of NATO had no choice but to send nuclear missiles.

To that end, a resolution on the use of the weapon of God's war is before the leaders of each NATO member state.

This is an incomparably heavy decision, and once the space-based kinetic energy weapons are used, it is equivalent to opening the prelude to the participation of skyline weapons in direct ground operations.

However, with the exception of space-based kinetic weapons, there are no weapons in NATO as a whole that are guaranteed to destroy Somalia's meteorological weapons.

As the most powerful and efficient space-based weapon for attacking fixed targets on the ground. The battle of God was able to strike directly at the enemy's homeland within ten minutes of receiving the order.

And the location of Somali meteorological weapons. It's also no longer a secret to NATO.

What really needs to be considered is that Somalia also uses the Skyrim weapon system to fight back.

The pressure of this order was issued, both in Europe and in the United States. When it was issued, it was extremely heavy.

This is because the highest priority targets of the Somali Skyrim weapon system are inevitably European countries and the United States.

To put it mildly, they simply cannot defend against such strike weapons.

Eventually, though, the order was given, not to say that their resolve was too strong.

The first is that it must be done, otherwise the war is a defeat, and the other is the proportional relationship between the cost and the result.

There aren't many places in Somalia where there are high-value targets, but the NATO alliance is so extensive. It can well counteract the damage of space-based weapons.

To put it bluntly, Somalia, with its high economic and industrial concentration, cannot afford such a blow, and once the Bagua City is finished, most of the Somali Federation will have collapsed.

But NATO is different, even if key cities in Europe and key cities in the United States are attacked, NATO still has the power to fight a war, which is incomparable to Somalia.

Formally taking into account the proportionality of the cost and effect of such an attack. NATO has only decided that it must use the Skyrim weapon system, and now it has reached the most critical time, and there is no time to hesitate.

The order was given very quickly, within the North American Air Defense Command. The ground command of the Skyrim Weapons Systems, under the dual authority of Congress and the President, is located over the Atlantic. The battle of God in near-earth orbit, its weapon-loading satellites began to rest in orbit.

The War of God control guidance satellites also received all the strike commands. The time has come for all the excitement.

Just seven minutes later, a space-based weapon satellite platform loaded with eight heavy metal rods weighing a total of eighty tons was launched. It has already moved to low-earth orbit over Somalia.

At a height of thousands of meters, eight huge metal rods broke away from the weapon platform of the Skyrim weapon system almost at the same time.

Eight huge propulsion devices began to ignite, eight huge metal rods, and the speed of descent exceeded twenty times the speed of sound in an instant.

However, when entering the atmosphere, the speed decreases, but it still exceeds the speed of thirteen times the speed of sound.

A thousand kilometers is just a four- or five-minute process for such a high-speed weapon.

In Somalia at night, the piercing air defense sirens sounded for the first time, and all the ground defense weapons were fully operational.

One after another, anti-aircraft missiles rose from the ground and flew towards the metal rods that were falling at high speed in the sky.

Thousands of Guangling Towers were all in motion, countless beams of light gathered in the sky, and under the dense missile explosion, eight metal rods still passed through the dense anti-aircraft missile interception and flew towards the ground.

All anti-aircraft missiles simply could not affect the process of descent of these metal rods, and all counterattacks were as if they were paper paste.

Five minutes later, the metal rod finally broke through to a low altitude, and at this time, countless lasers were all gathered, but the super fast speed made it impossible for all the laser interceptors to have a destructive effect on the metal rod.

And two seconds later, the metal rods will descend directly on the entire earth.

Somalia's key economy and industry, which are clustered around Bagua City, have been targeted by eight metal rods.

Bagua City, Bossaso, and Erigabo took these three cities as the central point, and eight metal rods were directly aimed at this area.

At this moment, all the leaders in NATO have a triumphant smile on their faces, and they have seen the smile of the goddess of victory when they saw that Somalia's dense defensive firepower could not help this superweapon.

In the final moments, I couldn't help but hold my breath every time I saw that the metal rod was about to fall to the ground through the aim of the Fight of God weapon system.

However, in the next second, all the expressions on their faces froze, and the leaders of dozens of countries, the mouths that grew up at the same time, every staff member, every NATO high-level, almost exclaimed.

Because just when the metal rod was about to strike at Bagua City and all the surrounding industries and military, a huge black curtain suddenly appeared.

The radius of action can reach 100 kilometers, and the Iron Curtain device, which has been preparing for so many years, is showing itself in the eyes of the outside world for the first time.

It has an iron curtain that can cover a maximum area of 31,400 square kilometers. Directly cover the entire Bossaso to Erigabo to Bagua City.

All industrial and military installations in Somalia. All shrouded in the Iron Curtain.

The Iron Curtain, completely dark, is like the deep universe. But it makes every NATO high-level person seem to see a boundless black hole.

In the next second, eight huge metal rods, each weighing ten tons, made intimate contact with the Iron Curtain.

Ten tons of weight, with a speed of Mach 15, slammed into this layer of black curtain, as a result of which eight metal rods turned into eight flattened flatbreads, which, as the Iron Curtain disappeared, fell on the target that was supposed to be completely destroyed.

Now. At every NATO high-level, the nerves were paralyzed in an instant, and a few even had direct attacks of high blood pressure.

They thought of all kinds of possibilities, and the results were really shocking.

In the next second, twelve equally huge metal rods suddenly descended on the sky over Europe, and as soon as this news came out, everyone's faces became extremely exciting.

Hillary's face flushed instantly. Then he rolled his eyes and fainted. A large number of medical personnel rushed her to the emergency room.

This is the end of the picture, because the attack satellites over Somalia have destroyed the American Fight of God weapons system with lasers.

At the same time that NATO was using the Skyrim weapon system, the Somali Zhentian weapon installation was also operational.

Unlike the battle of God. The Zhentian weapon system is composed of three parts, with two weapon loading platforms and a command and control platform.

The three platforms form a zigzag on the track.

Now the three satellite platforms are in the battle of God when they come to Somali low-earth orbit. Also on time came to the skies over Europe.

Despite being only two weapon platforms, the metal rods carried together are only twelve. These twelve metal rods were given the code name of the zodiac by Li Lan.

Each metal rod is made from the strongest special minerals. The length reached fifteen meters, and each one weighed fifteen tons.

The first metal rod, which came to the place of London, in a low-earth orbit of a thousand kilometers above London, the metal rod broke away from the weapon platform.

A minute later, the second rod fell over Paris, the third in Rome, followed by the fourth, the fifth, the sixth, all in Europe.

However, the matter is far from over, after all the metal rods on the weapon platform were released, the weapon platform that was originally on the track fell directly to the ground.

The remaining command platform and another weapons platform continued to rest in orbit and quickly crossed the Atlantic.

And at this moment, the first metal rod plunged London, where the morning sun was slowly rising, into an unprecedented crisis.

10 Downing Street, the political center of Britain for centuries, disappeared from view in an instant in defiance of the screams of terror.

The entire British Isles shook violently, centered on 10 Downing Street, all the houses collapsed in an instant, and the ground was like a noisy river, all surging.

The earth shattered like a 12-magnitude earthquake, and the entire surface of London was full of strong undulations.

In just a few seconds, most of Dunlun disappeared, completely in ruins, it was really like being destroyed by a super earthquake, no house was intact, even the castles in the suburbs were all collapsed, and farther away, they all became dangerous houses that could collapse at any time.

Fifteen tons of high-quality metal rods hit down at a speed exceeding that of meteorites, and the glass hundreds of kilometers away around London was directly shattered, and everyone could feel the strong tremor.

The waters of the English Channel, with huge waves tens of meters high, are like the end of the world.

Li Lan, who caused this disaster, was also shocked at this moment, and he didn't expect that the destructiveness of a metal rod was so huge, it was no less than a meteorite impact.

If the mass of the metal rods were several times higher, he even wondered if the whole of Britain would sink into the sea.

The second unfortunate city is Paris, which, like London, is about to start a new day, and has no chance to react to the sudden disaster.

The whole of Paris was destroyed in an instant, and even the cities around Paris were destroyed.

Even the whole of Europe could feel the violent tremors, and a dozen seconds later, Rome was also in the footsteps.

The fourth metal rod descended on Turkey. The remaining two descended on Poland and Spain.

Just for a short moment. The destructive power has left indelible damage on Europe.

This was indeed somewhat unexpected, and as destructive as he envisioned. The actual result is several times more damage.

Thinking of the eight metal rods that had fallen on his head before, he realized more clearly that if it weren't for the Iron Curtain device, he would have become a lonely ghost by now, and the whole of Somalia would be doomed.

The scene of the catastrophe in Europe spread throughout the world at the fastest speed, and the earthquake offices throughout Europe were issuing warnings.

However, this is the result of man-made, a devastating scene for mankind, for the first time at the most cruel price. Show it to the world.

At this moment, the Zhentian system has already come to the sky over the United States, but when the Zhentian system comes here, it will return to its original orbit as soon as possible, because at this moment, Li Lan canceled the order to attack.

Zhentian's powerful destructive power and the damage it brought to the enemy, I believe that it is enough, and continue to attack. It can only be a matter of increasing the killing.

An hour later, Hillary, who was rescued urgently, saw the first news that Europe was in a mess, London and Paris, the two most representative cities in Europe. It is a ruin that is difficult to repair.

Hillary's face turned red again, and she fainted again.

The U.S. Congress immediately convened an emergency session on all channels around the world. are reporting on this matter closely.

The world shook, and Li Lan directly became the center of public opinion. Somalia became the center of all rhetoric.

NATO is also in a state of flux, with tens of millions of people involved in this huge disaster. This made the front-line troops unstable, and all military operations were stopped.

For a time, Europe became synonymous with disaster.

In the face of the world's uproar, Li Lan naturally could not dodge, and stood on the podium in front of the whole world, without any false announcement of the cause of the disaster.

The U.S. military's War of God weapons system was the first to strike at Somalia, and Somalia fired back.

The first to attack was blocked, and all of Europe was out of luck.

The whole story was truthfully presented in front of the world, and no one knew what to say for a while.

Because war is inherently brutal, the decision of NATO's top brass to use space-based weapons should be in mind for the Somali side's retaliation.

Is it possible that Somalia can only be beaten and cannot fight back, and there is no such reason in the world.

Although Europe, as the party that has suffered a great disaster, does not know how to sympathize with the damage caused by the war.

The war was originally provoked by NATO, and NATO has always been on the offensive side, and as a result, it was beaten badly, so what can blame the people who were beaten?

Moreover, Li Lan has already shown mercy to his subordinates, and if it had not been for his mercy, the United States would have followed in the footsteps of Europe by now.

I don't know how many more cities have fallen victim to the war, and tens of millions of people have become the ghosts of this war.

And the war did not stop there, and a super hurricane formed in the eastern Indian Ocean.

The radius of influence of the hurricane reached thousands of kilometers, and NATO's Combined Pacific Fleet, despite the fact that it had left the radius of action of the hurricane at full speed, still had more than half of the fleet directly involved in the center of the hurricane.

The level of the hurricane also far exceeded the forecast of the meteorological department, exceeding the wind speed of 19, which is the most powerful hurricane ever recorded.

And the NATO fleet directly grieved, the huge waves tens of meters high were lifted by the strong wind, and one warship after another was buried in the sea.

Even a supercarrier, in the center of the hurricane, is like an undulating boat, and under the powerful force of nature, it is extremely fragile.

Thousands of tons of warships do not even have the strength to resist, and even the hull of the ship will be torn apart by huge waves and strong winds.

The towering mast had already collapsed, and the high bridge to increase the radar scanning range had also exacerbated the damage to the ship.

In the howling wind, one warship after another was swallowed up by the huge waves, and those supply ships and other ships also stepped into the footsteps.

Even tens of thousands of tons of cruise ships and supply ships are not immune, and the sea has long become a huge strangulation ground.

Except for the supercarrier, none of the warships that came in were spared.

Tens of thousands of NATO sailors died directly in the sea.

This is the biggest disaster in the history of human navigation, and it is also the largest loss.

The six aircraft carrier battle groups affected by the hurricane completely lost their combat effectiveness, and only six aircraft carriers, which were also scarred, were lost, and none of the other supporting warships could be seen.

That's not a few warships, but a hundred warships, and even those amphibious assault ships are not immune.

In the hangar of the aircraft carrier, the fighters are also staggering, and the mast on the aircraft carrier is also swept away by the strong wind. Bare. Lu's anti-aircraft missiles don't know when they were blown away.

The deck was empty, and the ground support vehicles fastened to it with iron chains had already fallen into the undulating sea, and on the aircraft carrier, every sailor did not even have the strength to stand.

This is the fleet at the center of the hurricane, and the warships on the periphery of the hurricane are not spared, and many warships are also damaged to varying degrees, although they have left the center of the hurricane's action, the wind is still as strong as a knife.

The bows of many warships were even torn off, and some warships collided directly under the raging waves.

The three arsenal ships are the most tragic, and the arsenal ships, which are the weakest in the original anti-sea situation, all sank to the bottom of the sea without exception, and they couldn't even be fished up.

Only a submarine that hides hundreds of meters underwater can escape such a violent nature. (To be continued......)
