Chapter 657: Valkyrie Frigate

The "Morning Star" flashed again diagonally, and frigates about 100 meters long appeared on the flanks of the battlefield.

Intelligence officers reported the number of 70.

Domino's face was ugly, like a dead father.

This is the first time he has seen this kind of 100-meter-class frigate, whether it is the short video leaked by the "Mubarak" offensive and defensive battle, or the intelligence provided by the Duchy of Kernar against the reformers, there is no such frigate.

This is their first appearance.

The Heretic-class fast assault boats became the first victims.

Swarms of H, A.L.O missiles formed a huge barrage on the flanks, and the fast assault boats used to pin down the golden fighters could not get close to their targets, but they were overwhelmed by the rain of fragments, and they burst into flames and explosions one after another.

The assault boat's railgun could not even cause damage to the Valkyrie frigate, and the projectile hitting the ship's heavy armor only scratched the path and could hardly damage the hull structure.

A full 110 heretic-class assault boats, under the missile attack that enveloped the entire area, were completely buried under the violently flashing silver explosion wave.

The Valkyrie frigate flew away, and the aftermath gradually subsided, except for more than 20 heretic-class fast assault ships on the periphery, which survived and ran away in advance, the remaining more than 80 were all shipwrecked and became victims of this silver storm.

The wreckage of the assault boat collided with each other, and the occasional sparks of electricity bounced off the fractures, contributing a glimmer of light and heat to the Void Graveyard.

Small pieces of debris and metal fragments spread silently on the periphery, occasionally grazed by streamers of magnetic tracks, knocking them into the air, spinning and disappearing into the void, or hitting large pieces of wreckage, shattering the thin outer skin like a sledgehammer hitting a loose snowball. Scatter in all directions.

The face of the deputy commander of the garrison naval fleet turned blue, and in any case, he did not expect that nearly a hundred heretic-class assault boats would be torn into a ball of steel and tatters by the missile cluster fired by the opposing frigate group in just a moment.

It is not uncommon for ships to be able to launch missiles intensively, and many missile frigates and destroyers can do it, but the key is that the missiles launched by the opponent's frigates are too elegant, so elegant that people are speechless. It's heart-wrenching.

The attack mode of those missiles is very special, different from conventional missiles, it is not a classic point-to-point blasting mode, but through the accurate measurement of the auxiliary computer, fully considering the range of fragmentation sputtering produced by the missile explosion, forming a regional saturation explosion impact without dead ends.

The point is that the lethality of those missiles is outrageous, and the explosion creates rounds of silvery-white flashes as beautiful as the halo created by the light of the stars falling on the atmosphere, but such beauty is deadly, and the fragments that sputter out of it hit the assault boat. Easily tearing through the armor, the molten ultra-high temperature jet can damage the ship's internal structure in an instant, causing fire, casualties, and even implosion.

Of course, if the other side is only a missile frigate, the barrage created has a limited range of damage, so there is no need to worry. The point is that there are 70 missile frigates, but the navy does not know where they came from. Suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and then 110 heretic-class fast assault boats came thousands of miles to send people away. Give people a pot of stew clean.

Oh...... No, there are still a few fish left that have slipped through the net.

Just when the commanders and fighters at all levels of the navy were stunned and frightened, the 70 Valkyrie frigates were divided into six squads and slaughtered at the wailing battleship dock.

The Corruptor is relatively slow, with a distance from the area around the Morning Star to the battleship dock, enough for the Mar Fleet frigates and destroyer-class warships to leave the harbor in formation. At the very least, it can form a fighting force before more than 100 corrupt people arrive.

Sadly, Domino's focus on countermeasures against living warships of the size of the Corruptor and Wyvern completely ignored the Explosive Mosquitoes, which were only about 2 meters long.

He thought that the battleship's close defense system could easily take out these little bugs, and to take a step back, even if some of them were caught. The teeth on the inside of their ring-shaped mouths alone are annoying to captains of all ranks at best, and they can't cause powerful damage.

Mr. Vice Admiral's observation was very sharp, and while others were still marveling at the 110 heretic-class fast assault ships being overwhelmed by the silver light, he had already noticed those little things.

The small body of more than 2 meters is so small in naval combat, and obviously does not spit lethal acid like the Corruptor, and according to his speculation, this may be a parasite-like thing that can attach to the warship and destroy key equipment such as sensors, radar antennas, and external turrets.

The sharp teeth on the inside of their mouths seem to prove this.

Domino's thinking is very logical, but it's a pity that the abilities of the Zerg units are not logical.

So, when he saw the scene below, he blushed a little, and there was a bitter taste in his mouth.

The speed of the explosive mosquito is much faster than that of the corruptor, even more than the flying dragon, and the battleship's close defense system is difficult to hit the target, and the first 3 destroyers are continuously hit by more than 20 explosive mosquitoes in the weak point of the structure.

In a moment, the flames from the inside of the hull illuminated the void, and with the hole hit by the explosive mosquito as the starting point, the narrow hull of the three Punishment Knight-class destroyers was torn apart by implosion, split into two, and flew all the way to the military port, smashing the signal lights and the nearby radar station to pieces.

The 80 Exploding Mosquitoes continued forward like a whirlwind of death, wailing everywhere they passed, and the screen was filled with flashes of fires erupting from the battleship.

A Holy Knight-class light cruiser was hit by 12 explosive mosquitoes along the center of the battleship, and the explosion spread left and right along the keel, engulfing everything in its path, and several shuttles were killed in the fire before they could leave the near area, becoming the martyrs of the mothership.

The command hall was silent, except for the slight concussions created by the shock wave from the local explosion, and the flashes of light on the large screen, which made it clear that those were not dreams, but unacceptable facts.

These little things are simply a kind of biological missiles with independent thoughts!

Missiles are consumables and can be replenished.

Exploding mosquitoes can also be replenished!

When 100 exploding mosquitoes flew out of the lower left of the Morning Star again, and the intelligence officer turned the scan to the big screen, Domino's short, lean body shuddered.

This was the first time that Tang Fang had used explosive mosquitoes at any cost, and 100 explosive mosquitoes could replace more than 20 warships of the navy in a very short period of time and disrupt the opponent's ship group attack formation.

More than 700 warships of the Marr fleet were moored at the battleship dock, and 200 explosive mosquitoes were the first to leave the berth, and the more than 50 warships used to delay time were scattered, and the corrupt drove straight in. The rain of light from the hard anti-close defense artillery system sprayed cloud after cloud of paraspores on the battleships that were slowly departing from the berth.

A 120MM MAGNETIC RAIL PROJECTILE HIT THEM, AND IN AN INSTANT, FLESH AND BLOOD FLEW AND BODILY FLUIDS FLOWED EVERYWHERE.

After just two or three breaths, the surging tissue cells will squeeze the projectile out of the body and return to its original state.

The back-and-forth battles didn't last long. The addition of 70 Valkyrie frigates completely upended the war situation at the battleship docks.

The indiscriminate firing of the H.A.L.O missile system plunged most of the warship docks into a sea of fire, and large and small explosions swept through the entire airspace like a hurricane, and a large number of fragments and gunpowder smoke spread in all directions.

The silver flash obscured the light of "Georgia", and some large ships exploded, resulting in a shock wave tearing apart the main structure of the dock, and kilometers of building wreckage were detached from the main body of the dock, with surging flames and clouds, tumbling away into the deep space.

Incapacitated warships followed them, slowly sinking into the dark depths of space.

The formidable Valkyrie frigate showed great combat effectiveness that stunned everyone on board the "Morning Star...... And also Captain Don himself.

In the official StarCraft story. Valkyrie frigates are mostly used as auxiliary combat forces of battle cruisers into the battlefield, or escort colonial ships to the target star field, rarely fighting alone, and there is no formed force composed of Valkyrie frigates, firstly, Valkyrie frigates are expensive to build, and their uses are not as extensive as mobile fortresses such as battlecruisers, and secondly, the opponent of mankind is the Zerg Air Force, facing a vast number of flying units such as Wyverns, Explosive Mosquitoes, and Devourers. Valkyrie frigates are nowhere near as useful as small and medium-sized aerospace fighters such as Viking fighters and Wraith fighters. It is only in some large-scale battles that the Valkyrie frigate will have amazing "performances".

Until Captain Tang went crazy today, he dropped the low combat power and low consumption of the army. Free up the population to build 70 Valkyrie frigates and put them all into the battlefield, only to find out what a terrifying invincible fleet this expensive missile frigate is after it is formed.

As we all know, at a time when the human warship system is deeply influenced by the Epsilon civilization, fleet-level wars are mostly long-range counter-bombardment. From small and medium-sized railguns, to large railguns, and even classic howitzers and rapid-fire guns, the number of attack paths is biased towards precision strikes, rather than full coverage.

In such an environment. The development of high-precision electromagnetic weapons, fire control radars, auxiliary jet systems, and magnetic shields is relatively rapid, while the development of missiles, flying mines, and large and medium-caliber short-range weapons is relatively slow.

With the vigorous development of formation science, ECM, and ECCM technology, it has gradually replaced the position of high-precision electromagnetic weapons, fire control radars, auxiliary jet systems, and magnetic shields in the field of military science and technology, and has become a new leader.

As a result, the supremacy of electromagnetic weapons in fleet-level confrontations and large-scale battles is gradually shaken, and they lose their original dazzling brilliance.

The main problem lies in the hit rate, because these countermeasures that came into being are booming, and the shooting accuracy of weapons such as electromagnetic guns, railguns, coil guns, and reconnection guns has declined significantly, marking the beginning of the decline of electromagnetic weapons.

In recent years, the issue of developing practical high-energy lasers, plasma cannons, particle cannons, and other energy weapons with higher accuracy to replace electromagnetic weapons has been accepted by the leadership of sovereign countries and put on the agenda. As a result, as an elite force in the hands of great nobles and big forces, they began to install energy weapons.

Even so, fleet-level warfare still follows the combat style of the era when electromagnetic guns were king, and will not change much in a short period of time.

The combat method of medium and short-range saturation bombing such as the Valkyrie frigate is completely different from the above situation. After all, the opponents of the Terrans in StarCraft are the Zerg, who are known for their numbers and hand-to-hand combat ability.

As a result, whether it is a frigate of the same class, a destroyer, a cruiser, or even a battleship, it looks restrained and clumsy in the face of the Valkyrie frigate that does not follow the usual path.

Because the role of the frigate in the hands of Captain Tang is not a battleship, but a fighter! Bomber!

To be precise, he is equipped with a frigate-level combat aircraft, but he applies the offensive method of an air-space fighter group.

However, their speed is extremely fast, their armor is incredibly thick, and their weapons are a lot of "Pegasus Meteor Fists".

The Mar fleet was unlucky, and Domino was unfortunate enough to be the object of the Valkyrie's first expedition.

The situation at the battleship dock is not good, and the situation of the main body of the military port is also not very good, because the "Morning Star" came directly to the military port, and the cluster of corruptors is very close to the target.

Before the Exploding Mosquito could attack the Marr fleet's vanguard ships, 150 Corruptors were already in the fight.

From a distance, the Sultanlun Military Port resembles a huge boar, with a steel mane and fangs, but that was usual, and now it has turned into a volcano in the wind forest, exploding under the attacks of the Corruptor, and spewing out of the Dao of Light and Fire.

The primary target of the large plasma cannon and railgun is the Morning Star, and the Rapid Cannon and the twin cannon have sent the Corrupt blood splattered and scales flying.

The surface of the "Morningstar's" Aurora shield rippled, and the colors flashed and accelerated, and it was really unable to resist the military port-level defense force, so it could only activate the antimatter auxiliary thruster and accelerate out of the airspace.

This state of affairs did not last long, as 150 Corruptors set fire to a large fort in General Harbor, at the cost of 44 Corruptors dying on the battlefield. The battle losses against the Mubarak garrison were only like this, so you can imagine how strong the defense of the Sullen military port was.

The "Morning Star" left the airspace of the military port and retreated to the area where the space-based defense platform was located, and cooperated with more than 50 Devourers and Wyverns to clear the space-based defense platform.

At the same time as the "Morning Star" and the cluster of biological warships appeared, Domino immediately ordered the front-line defense headquarters to paralyze the unmanned space-based defense platform, and the main defense facilities put into the battlefield at this time were manned.

They are generally very powerful, but the disadvantage is that they are bulky and less sensitive.

Devourer and Wyvern, as air units known for their agility in the Zerg unit, have an overwhelming advantage in the face of artillery, relying on the command system of the Detector-Star Rail Command Center-Tang Fang, the large turrets cannot lock their figures at all, and only some small laser cannon arrays can lock them by relying on motion and optical sensors in conjunction with the latest fire control radar's angle of fire correction program.
