Chapter 195: Legion-level Interstellar War (5)

In other words, within a star system, the dimension of space will remain on the average of three dimensions. If the spatial dimension is more than three-dimensional, the self-recovery function of the space will want to reduce its dimensionality, and vice versa. The specific manifestation of the self-recovery function of space is the leap of energy. The energy jumps from the direction of the higher energy order to the lower energy order, and in the process of energy transition, the spatial dimension of the sub-high-dimensional space, which is slightly higher than the three-dimensional space, will decrease accordingly. However, this slight change in spatial dimension is difficult to observe and feel.

The state of war navigation is named after the fact that it mostly takes place on the battlefield. In a state of war voyage, it is possible for the fleet to travel a distance in a given time that exceeds the product of time and the speed of light. Of course, this does not mean that the real speed of the fleet exceeds the speed of light, and it is almost impossible for matter to reach the speed of light like energy.

Compared with the conventional navigation state and the curvature navigation state, the war navigation state is very unstable, and it is easy to be forced out of this state by external attacks. Although the energy requirement of the war navigation state is not high, the energy consumption of fighting against space disorder to maintain this navigation state after an attack is extremely large. It is precisely because of this that even the light starcruiser Long-Range is not qualified to enter the state of war voyage. In other words, if the light starcruiser Long-Range dares to enter the state of war voyage in the middle of the war, the greatest possibility is that it will be directly blown up by the enemy's attack. This is a combat posture that requires a fleet of considerable size and advanced equipment to barely be able to use.

For the enemy fleet that entered the state of war navigation and was rapidly pressing, the Ten Planetary System Fleet of the Temple of Earth did not have the courage to maintain this unstable and dangerous state of navigation. Although the size of one's own fleet is much larger than that of the enemy, the coordination within the fleet is uneven, and if one is not done well, it is easy to go wrong. Therefore, even if it is really time to enter the state of war voyage, the fleet of the Ten Planetary Systems of the Temple of Earth will only enter this state of voyage in a relatively safe place for a very short period of time.

As for the enemy's fighting posture, Admiral Kaino and other high-ranking fleet leaders had already anticipated it. After all, the enemy is the high-tech fleet of the capital area, and it is understandable that there is such a thing as "cheating" in battle. As long as the black technology opened by the other party is not particularly black, this battle can still be fought.

It's like infantry versus cavalry. The infantry had a numerical advantage, while the cavalry was far superior in mobility. Fortunately, this is under your own city, and the infantry side fights with their backs to the city, with long-range support from archers behind the battlements of the walls.

The roaring "cavalry troops" came quickly, and for the first time, they did not directly impact the fleet formation of the Earth Temple Ten Planetary System Fleet, but roared past the flank of the Earth Temple Ten Planetary System Fleet. As it roared by, at a very dangerous distance of more than a dozen light-seconds between the fleets of each other, the third detachment of the Giant Bear Star Legion launched a salvo of space missiles! In the sub-dimensional space, the launched space missile will enter the curvature navigation state at a speed far beyond the ordinary navigation state! It can almost be said that these space missiles have just left the sub-high-dimensional space maintained by the Third Detachment of the Giant Bear Interstellar Legion, and they have seamlessly entered the state of curvature navigation! A salvo of space missiles at such a distance is simply a face-to-face shot! If you don't take precautions in advance, and want to defend after the other side launches a space missile, it will be too late! Just like when the cavalry troops are whizzing past the flanks of their own infantry units, the array of their own infantry units must raise their shields in advance to block them, so that they can withstand the rain of arrows thrown by the cavalry troops as they roar past. However, even if you raise your shield to block in advance, there will be unlucky infantry who will be hit by a rain of arrows. The proportion of infantry killed or wounded in the rain of arrows thrown by cavalry depends on the elite of this infantry unit. For the elite troops who are full of orders and move in a uniform manner, it is not impossible to block the rain of arrows of the cavalry troops even without injury. On the other hand, if it is just a straggler, it may be seriously injured in the first wave of arrows.

The Earth Temple Ten Planetary System Fleet is not an elite force, but it is not a straggler, so after this first wave of space missile attacks, the Earth Temple Ten Planetary System Fleet suffered some injuries. Specifically, there are a few defensive flaws in the defense surface of the giant shield composed of a vast number of dense high-energy particle beams. It was also these defensive flaws that allowed the high-end space missiles launched by the enemy to find an entry point, destroying a light interstellar frigate on the flank of the Ten Planetary System Fleet in the Temple of Earth in one wave, and the explosion affected a light interstellar frigate next to it.

Suffering such an injury is still acceptable to oneself. In this kind of legion-level interstellar war carried out by thousands of starships, interstellar frigates are only the lowest level of soldiers, and it is not unbearable to occasionally damage some of them.

After the first wave of space missiles fired at this volley, the third detachment of the Giant Bear Star Legion carried the space missile attack from within the nine planetary systems of the Earth Temple, and quickly moved away from the ten planetary system fleets of the Earth Temple that could not be chased by the rear. And in the process of the opponent's rapid evacuation, it was naturally impossible for the Earth Temple Ten Planetary System Fleet, which had just received a salvo of space missiles, not to return fire. Therefore, even though the opponent's retreat was fast, the Earth Temple Ten Planetary System Fleet also launched a round of space missiles at the enemy. By the way, the high-energy singularity ray cannon that can directly kill enemy ships is also firing at full strength. In the face of this attack from behind, the Third Squadron of the Giant Bear Star Legion is able to deal with it with ease. In terms of the degree of elite, although the Giant Bear Interstellar Legion is a semi-mercenary army, it is from the capital area where civilization and technology are more developed, and the quality and technological level of the crew are much higher than those of the princes. Therefore, the fleet, which was in a state of war sailing, withstood the attack from the rear unscathed, not even a single battleship damaged by it!

After the first round of confrontation, the high-level leaders of the Ten Planetary System Fleet of the Earth Temple finally felt the tremendous pressure. This first-round clash reflects not only the battle loss ratio, but also the difference in the elite level of each other! When the second- and third-rate troops face elite troops or even ace troops, even if they have the home advantage and the advantage of troops, their morale will still suffer a big blow. If you can't get rid of this subconscious awe of the elite or even the ace, the morale will be lower and lower, and the chance of making mistakes in the panic will be increasing!

The atmosphere has become oppressive, and the top of the fleet must make timely adjustments to avoid ending up with a boiled frog.

"Strengthen support for us, we are facing a particularly elite detachment." Although it is very unwilling, the reality is likely to be like this. Therefore, since it is a home battle, there is no need to act with personal heroism when your own forces are superior.

Regarding the speed of the Ten Planetary System Fleets of the Earth Altar, the high-level leaders of the other two fleets were surprised. It stands to reason that even if you really can't beat and want to ask for help, you have to support two more rounds, right? Where is the first round to call for help right after the first leg? Is this Nima pragmatic to the point of being completely shameless?

However, since the Earth Altar Ten Planetary System Fleet has no shame to ask for support, the Earth Temple Nine Planetary System Garrison, which is the landlord, is not easy not to react. After all, the victory or defeat of this battle directly determines the rise and fall of the nine-planet system of the Temple of Earth. If they lose, the other two fleets can pat themselves on the butt and leave. Therefore, the native fleet of the Nine Planetary System of the Temple of Earth is the mainstay of this battle, and it is absolutely shameful!

After a big circle from afar, when the third detachment of the Giant Bear Star Legion wanted to launch the second round of charges again, the attack from the Nine Planetary System of the Temple of Earth escalated! If the previous attack was like a rain of arrows on the city, then this time the intensity of the attack on the city has been upgraded to the level of a siege crossbow. Compared to the rain of arrows, which are more numerous, but less powerful, and slower, the Siege Crossbow is faster, has a greater range, and is much more powerful. The reason why I didn't use the "siege crossbow" at the beginning of the day was that it belonged to a bulky and difficult to move firepower fortress. On weekdays, when you hide in the unknown underground and don't fire, everyone doesn't notice it. However, once it shows its head and fires a cannon attack, it will be observed by the enemy and will give a higher priority to the concentrated fire. As for the tactic of changing places with one shot, it is too large and heavy to implement.

However, this super singularity ray cannon that is fully powered by the nuclear fusion reactor of the underground base is really powerful!

Under a satellite without an atmosphere inside the nine planetary systems of the Temple of Earth, a thick cannon muzzle slowly stretched out of the ground, and under the positioning of the singularity radar, it quickly rotated the muzzle angle, pointing at the "cavalry unit" that was about to launch the second round of "arrow rain salvo".

Almost in the next moment, an invisible pillar of energy that pierced through thousands of light-seconds between each other almost instantaneously roared past and directly hit an interstellar destroyer on the flank of the Third Fleet of the Giant Bear Star Legion!

In the face of this terrifyingly powerful firepower fortress attack, even if there are strong defenses on the periphery of the fleet, even if there is a powerful energy shield on the outside of the battleship, even if there is a strong reactive armor layer on the outside of the battleship. But this super singularity ray pillar came down, and the star destroyer that was directly hit was still directly detonated! In the raging energy turbulence, no one can survive! Not only that, but this powerful attack directly pierced the star destroyer, piggybacking on a corvette on the periphery of the other side and detonating it! If it weren't for the fleet formation, the maximum number of warships in the same straight line was only two, and the number of battleships that were pierced by the company would have increased!

"Damn it, take out that exposed firepower fortress for me!"
