Chapter 789: Phalanx
"The enemy is already preparing to enter the wormhole, let's go!"
"Yes! The K01~10 'Tracker' phalanx began to be charged in turn, coordinates XXX, XXX, the No. 2 wormhole of the solar system, unlimited extension and fire! ”
With the invisible signal transmission, the outer solar system, in the Kuiper Belt, 10 battery positions built on large meteorites began to be loaded!
These meteorites have been completely transformed into honeycomb structures, like honeycomb coals.
Soon, a black needle-shaped projectile with a mass of only 60g and no reflection was pushed onto the orbital rifling by the automatic bullet chain.
"Zizi~" A massive amount of energy began to converge from several large nuclear fusion stations, and the energy inside the fort position was agitated!
The next moment, "Whoosh! Streams of light shot out from the hive, and disappeared into the void in the blink of an eye.
Almost at a rate of hundreds of rounds per second, the battery position continued to roar towards the distant void, and after three minutes, the artillery fire finally stopped, and the already reddened No. 1 battery began to enter a cooling period.
Then Battery 2 began to roar.
The 10 batteries spewed tongues of fire in turn, and the flames were endless......
……
Wormhole No. 2 of the solar system.
All 3,000 Imperial warships had passed through the wormhole and arrived in a strange and distant land, the vortex of the void behind them still slowly swirling.
As Viscount Tiebi expected, there was calm on the other side of the wormhole, not at all as if it had been discovered in advance, and the small cargo ship that had inexplicably entered was like an accident.
"Your Excellency, the location of the wormhole leading to the Gemini civilization has been discovered, but ......" the adjutant hesitated to call up a star map.
"In the inner solar system, we detected signs of fleet movements, exactly three days ago."
The large-scale fleet wake will leave a clear trajectory of energy radiation in space, and according to the escape of these energy radiation, it is possible to roughly analyze the time point of the spacecraft.
"So, was it discovered the first time we opened the wormhole?" Viscount Tiebi frowned.
From a small detail, it can be seen that the wormhole detection technology possessed by the opponent is not to be underestimated, and it seems that the small cargo ship is not a simple accident......
The information given by the second prince did mention that the ruler of this solar system is a mysterious organization called the Unification of All Things, which seems to be involved with a certain prince within the empire, and even the mechanical race, and the scientific and technological strength is not weak.
"The size of the fleet that the other side is mobilizing?" Viscount Tiebi asked.
"About 300 ships, currently assembled in the Kuiper Belt on the outer reaches of the solar system."
"Oh?" Viscount Tiebi raised his eyebrows in some surprise.
It was a little unexpected that a galaxy that had only been developed for a few years could have a fleet of this size.
However, even so, there are only 300 warships, and I am afraid that the moment I know the exact size of my fleet, I am afraid that I will not dare to come out......
"Then ......" Before he could finish speaking, the shrill alarm in the fleet sounded suddenly.
"Alert! Captured dense attack sources, at a distance of 3 million kilometers, suspected high-speed physical projectiles, with a mass of 50g~100g, a speed of 0.3 times the speed of light, and a quantity of 100,000+! ”
The fleet's joint detection radar soon reported the results of the analysis, and this was a wave of high-speed electromagnetic attack!
Since the live broadcast room of the Iron Wall Fleet has been opened, it means that the earth civilization has completely grasped the enemy's movements, and the wormhole coordinates have indicated the enemy's location, and the Earth Defense Force will naturally not let go of the opportunity to strike first.
Although the speed of electromagnetic weapons is slow, they also have their advantages, that is, there is almost no upper limit to the attack range in space, and when the target location is determined, it is very suitable as the first wave of ultra-long-range attack means outside the range.
The time was calculated, and the projectile arrived on time after the enemy fleet completely entered the solar system, and pounced on the ironclad fleet in dense packs!
"Huh! Sure enough, he was prepared for a long time, and the attack was very decisive. In the face of such an attack, Viscount Tiebi smiled as if he had no pressure at all.
Without him giving an order, the front-row battleships on the periphery of the fleet instantly turned on one magnetic field after another.
These invisible magnetic fields were agitated and coupled with each other, and they magically completed the confluence, and finally built a super-large electromagnetic shield in front of the fleet.
High-speed projectiles crashed into this magnetic shield like fists into cotton, and the speed became slower and slower.
At the same time, the ultra-high heat generated by cutting the magnetic field lines makes these electromagnetic projectiles red and hot, turning into bright lines of fire until they completely evaporate.
The electromagnetic storm that was enough to destroy the world turned into nothingness in the understatement of the Iron Arm Fleet.
However, the attack did not stop, and countless projectiles poured over as if they did not want money, as if they would not give up until they achieved their goal, and a rain of fire fell in front of the Iron Wall Fleet.
A full hour later, the futile assault continued.
Even if the Iron Wall Fleet changes course, the barrage like maggots on tarsal bones will soon follow with you.
The outermost "Tracker" Phalanx battery in the solar system's defense chain is a space weapon developed with reference to the "Phalanx Short-Range Defense System" on traditional warships.
By firing dense high-speed electromagnetic barrages, long-distance tracking attacks on intruders can force the enemy to be in a "defensive posture" at all times, or perform "redundant maneuvers" even if they cannot kill or injure the enemy, so as to continuously consume the enemy's reserve energy.
The closer you get, the more powerful this phalanx becomes.
This type of attack is undoubtedly a luxury for the attacking side, because every minute, a huge amount of energy and ammunition is consumed.
However, for the Earth civilization with home field advantage, it is only a slight loss of mass, and the celestial bodies in the Kuiper Belt are enough for them to squander them on local materials.
But for the invaders on the labor expedition, every supply they carry is precious until they occupy a bridgehead of a stable point!
"Your Excellency, the other side seems to want to fight a war of attrition with us." Adjutant said.
"Huh! Naive! Viscount Tiebi shook his head amusedly, this little scene was not enough to move the battle-hardened Viscount.
However, the opponent's decisive attack also made him pay a little attention to this inconspicuous enemy.
"Divide the troops according to the plan, but for the sake of their hard work, in addition to the 300 ships, send another 100 black cavalry fleets over.
The goal of the main fleet remains the same, immediately go to capture the twin wormhole! ”
"Yes!"
……
The three commanders of the virtual headquarters of the Earth Defense Force are closely observing the footage transmitted back from the battlefield.
There is enough time to prepare, enough for the Earth Defense Force to launch a large number of miniature detection equipment to closely monitor the vicinity of the wormhole.
"It's so strong!" When they saw the other party's way of coping with heavy weights, the three of them couldn't help but sink their hearts.
They were all veteran generals in the army, and just from the unruly formation and understatement of the other party, they could see that this group of enemies was completely different from the ones they had encountered before.
The whole fleet seemed to be a whole, with a well-founded advance and retreat between marches, and water could not be poured into the defense.
Their phalanx is almost tickling the other side, and they can't even interfere with the enemy's formation.
"Legionnaire! It turns out that the fleet can still be used like this......" While shocked, the three of them seemed to be opened to another world.
In the opponent's clan combination skills, they vaguely saw what the future large-scale fleet battle would look like......
"Look! The other side has divided its forces! ”
"Damn, look down on us?"
"Can you not breathe a sigh of relief when you say this......
"Huh! Aren't you too? ”
“……”
There was no way, the pressure on the three of them was too great for this huge fleet.
After possessing the brain chip, their mental arithmetic speed soared, and almost as soon as they collected the opponent's combat parameters, they understood that the strength of the Earth Defense Force alone could not match an enemy of this level.
Fortunately, the enemy's main fleet went straight to Gemini for some reason, which greatly reduced the pressure on the solar system.
If it was 400 warships, they would still have the confidence to fight.
As for Gemini......
That is naturally a dead friend and an immortal poor man.
