The order was issued, and the ships immediately released their fighters.

To put it simply, the hangar is like a magazine, the plane is like a bullet, and the channel for releasing the fighter is like a gun barrel, and the whole release process is similar to that of an automatic rifle, but the speed is much slower, with an average of 1.2 seconds to release a plane.

Each space carrier is equipped with multiple "automatic rifles", more than a dozen sets, and some seven or eight sets.

The large group of fighters left the ship at high speed, which really attracted the attention of the insect swarm, and the originally scattered fine light immediately concentrated on the space carrier, and the other warships got a brief respite.

However, the massive amount of fine light almost overwhelmed the space carrier, and many fighters were destroyed by the fine light that enveloped the mother ship as soon as they left the ship, and dozens and hundreds of fighters exploded one after another, and the ships had to temporarily suspend their flight.

It is not possible to stop the release, and the fine light is still concentrated on the aerospace carrier, which has the meaning of concentrating firepower to kill the mothership first, and then attacking the other warships.

The distance between the two sides continued to shrink, and the space carrier had no time to evacuate, so Halsey couldn't sit still, gritted his teeth sharply, and ordered the ships to release a smoke screen to cover the fleet.

After receiving the order, the ships immediately fired smoke screens as fast as they could, and after just over ten seconds, the entire international fleet was covered in smoke screens.

The smoke screen cut off the sight of both sides, and the originally fierce confrontation came to an abrupt halt.

The swarm continued to fire at the smoke screen, each pointing at a battleship, and if the ships remained in their original positions, the chances of being hit by the fine light were extremely high.

However, the international fleet is very experienced, and the first thing the ships do after releasing the smoke is to move their positions.

The international fleet has not completely ceased fire, lasers are not available, but missiles and artillery shells are fine, and there are super shotguns and artillery missiles.

In order to cover the artillery shells and missiles, the international fleet continued to fire smoke bombs after the smoke screen cut off the line of sight, until the smoke screen between us and the enemy was completely filled.

However, Halsey soon received a report that all the battleships that fired their guns were being targeted by the swarm, even if there was a smoke screen to cover them.

But ships that fired missiles without firing their guns didn't have this problem, and Halsey immediately realized that the swarm could determine the ship's orientation through a straight trajectory.

With the idea that he would rather believe what he has than what he doesn't, Halsey informed the entire fleet of this speculation, and demanded that all ships stop using direct fire and use missiles against the enemy.

The effect of the ships was amazing, and the swarm could no longer figure out the position of the battleship, although it was still firing thin lights, it was a blind shot with no target at all, and the occasional hit was all blind cats touching dead mice.

Halsey let out a long sigh of relief, now just wait until the Jizhou ship group provokes the aliens, and when the aliens withdraw the swarm, the international fleet can take the opportunity to follow and beat them hard with the swarm's ass.

At this moment, the radar suddenly let out a piercing scream, and Halsey almost jumped, and the whole person was stupid.

He was well acquainted with such an alarm, which usually represented something flying at high speed on a melee battleship.

"What the hell is going on?" Halsey roared angrily.

"General, the worm machines are crazy, they are faster than missiles!"

"Are you crazy? How can a bug machine be faster than a missile? Halsey didn't believe it at all, but when his eyes fell on the radar screen, he was dumbfounded.

On the radar, countless points of light representing the insect machine were rushing towards it at an extremely high speed, and Halsey was stunned for a few seconds before he suddenly came to his senses: "What's going on?" ”

"I don't know, it suddenly became like this just now, it's like a doping, yes, it's a doping!"

Halsey roared sharply: "You just got stimulant, intercept me, intercept, intercept with all your might, fast!" ”

At the sound of the order, the international fleet opened fire again, and all the weapons that could be used were put into battle, even the close defense guns joined the battle.

The smoke screen is isolated from the line of sight but cannot block the radar, and the position of all the insect machines is under the control of the international fleet.

However, there were so many bug machines that they were incredibly fast, and Halsey had already foreseen the development of the battle.

As expected, not long after, he received a report from the combat staff officer: "General, the Farragut has been hit by a worm machine!" ”

Halsey said calmly: "How is the battleship?" ”

"It's okay, it crashed into a piece of intact reactive armor." The staff officer said.

Since the bug fighter hit the Thunder Mountain, the Northern Capital and Washington began to study countermeasures, and the final conclusion was still to strengthen the armor of the warship, and soon after, the first reactive armor for ships was born in Beiyuezhou.

Now this thing is already the standard configuration of the space fleet, not only the international fleet, but also the Jizhou ship group, and even the Nanzhou ship group is no exception.

The Nanzhou ship group had the opportunity to use this thing in the Battle of Ceres, but considering that exposing the reactive armor in advance may cause aliens to be alert, if the aliens find countermeasures in advance, it may affect the entire expedition plan, so the reactive armor of the Nanzhou ship group has been stored in the transport ship, and it has not had a chance to use it until now.

Beginning with the Farragut, the warships of the International Fleet have been rammed by bug planes, and most of the impacts have been blocked by reactive armor, with very few exceptions, either crashing into a position without reactive armor, or the reactive armor has been damaged in previous battles.

However, Halsey was not worried at all, because the ordinary armor under the reactive armor was also strengthened, and the thickness was far deeper than the impact penetration of the insect machine, and the corrosive substances secreted by the insect machine were also included, and it still could not penetrate the armor.

But Halsey soon couldn't laugh, because after the insect machine was nailed to the armor, it didn't secrete corrosive substances to burn through the armor, but fired a fine light against the armor, and used the fine light to cut the armor!

Isn't this fatal?

Halsey jumped up like a furry cat: "Shoot each other, shoot each other to kill the bug machine-"

He really wanted to ask where the Jizhou ship group was, and how long would it take to launch an attack.

At this time, the Jizhou ship group had already rushed to the vicinity of Ganymede, and it would be able to attack in a few minutes.

In order to save time, the Jizhou ship group was dispersed in advance, and each battle group was responsible for one direction, and the action plan was similar to the plan of the international fleet, except that there were four less battle groups, unless the aliens could come up with a group of insect planes to intercept them.

Can the aliens take it? Of course not, because not long after the Jizhou ship group launched the operation, the aliens transferred back a batch of insect planes from the battlefield, with a total of about 20,000.

If there are still insect machines on Callisto, will the aliens need to weaken the power on the battlefield?

The aliens have not only brought back the swarm, but a little farther away, the alien fleet that has not been seen has also appeared, also rushing towards Ganymede at full speed.

In addition to this, the surviving light bugs also emerged from the ground and were converging at a location on the ground.
