Volume 3 Interstellar Expedition Chapter 16 Bloody Battle and Ancestral Pass 4
Pingzu Pass is a tight pass and an open area. In order to enter the pass smoothly without being beaten by the gate, the pass must be cleared, which means that the central planetary fortress and the surrounding auxiliary planets must be uprooted.
The attack and defense of the central fortress have entered the white heat, and the missile firepower and energy firepower of all warships have reached the limit, and the energy consumed per second is enough for the entire galaxy for half a year.
80,000 large battleships swarmed in two directions, 20,000 of which joined the battle at the central fortress, and the stalemate immediately began to turn the tide of the battle.
"There are 5% energy left." Without having to report to his subordinates, Minsalo had already seen the red light of the central planetary energy grid.
"The force field barrier is completely withdrawn, the outer planets are free to attack, and the battleships are arrayed."
At the same time, the energy source of all assault fleets began to turn red. The Rainforest, which had run out of energy due to its previous fight against gamma ray streams, began to return home after the integrated warship entered the battle.
"Refueling in the air."
Under Murray's command, there was a technological breakthrough in the Blue Domain that was presented to everyone - the attacking assault ship did not need to be manually added with antimatter. The two antimatter compartments in the center can be divided into two, and the propulsion energy and attack energy can be alternated, so that the battleship can be replaced with new energy in combat situations, and the endurance of the warship can be guaranteed to the greatest extent. But there are drawbacks.
Minsaro patiently watched the enemy's precise operation, and only gave the order when the main and auxiliary cabins were replaced halfway through: "Central fortress, start the self-destruction procedure." โ
"Retreat, all battleships, quickly."
Murray was an extremely observant man. On the screen of the combat command center
All the data is changing every second, making it overwhelming. However, Murray noticed something unusual - the remote measurement team showed that the internal energy of all the planets in the Central Battle Fortress was abnormally high. An ominous premonition hung over me.
The explosion was instantaneous. The shock wave came first, instantly overturning the nearby combat fleet, colliding and misfire, and hundreds of warships exploded. This was followed by an unstable stream of rays leaking out of the cracks, strafing irregularly, and dozens of battleships were sawn in half before they had time to dodge. Among them, some energy compartments were sawn off, and the energy leakage triggered a chain reaction, causing the surrounding warships to suffer. Finally, and most terrifyingly, energy and debris flowed away.
All the ships accelerated in reverse when they received Murray's order, but the time left for them was too hasty, and the surviving ships rolled over to get back to balance, but the energy and the exploding diamond shards came too quickly, it was a race between the battleship and the explosion. Gravitational acceleration has reached its limit, even the protection of the strong field is useless, the crew of the battleship that is running too fast is squeezed by the gravitational acceleration and explodes into a canopy of blood mist, and the slow runner has been swallowed by the blast energy or penetrated by the burst of fragments.
Of the 3,000 assault ships, only 900 were left to return to the rear base safely.
"How's the battle damage?"
"A total of 15,000 V86 assault ships participated in the charge, 8,624 were completely damaged, 5,508 were repaired, and only 968 were unharmed. There are also 20,000 integrated warships in the center of the fortress that assisted in the attack, only 3,000 returned, and all the others were damaged in battle, and there were no repairs. โ
After Murray heard this, he hid his face and bowed his head, the most elite troops under his command had already suffered heavy losses, if he didn't take Pingzu Pass, how could he explain to the people of all civilizations. At this moment, he recalled Hyde's words again, and couldn't help but rejoice that more than 20 years ago, the former Fรผhrer's wise decision, the rapid development of the Blue Domain for 20 years, to achieve such a result, if 20 years ago impulsively and arrogantly started the war, the consequences would be even more unimaginable.
But the situation did not allow him to make much recollection, the planetary fortress that exploded at the pass had cooled into a huge dark red wound at this time, due to the loss of the main power, the entire force field protection was completely ineffective, and the Carmon people did not disperse many troops on the auxiliary planets on the periphery of the pass. The remaining 60,000 warships, each in groups of 20, are uprooting all the planets on the periphery of the pass.
All the uprooting teams are directly powered by the main engine, more than 20 gamma ray streams are directly ejected from the engine, and before approaching the surface of the planet, they are combined into a strand, and the energy flows straight down, making the entire planetary surface shake the mountains, and all the fortifications built by intelligent life are destroyed, the energy continues to erupt, the magma flow breaks through the barrier of the earth's crust, and from space, the dark red flowing like blood vessels spreads all over the planet, the ravines are vertical and horizontal, and the scars outlined are layered one after another.
"It's done, let's withdraw."
With the captain's order, the whole team withdrew backwards, and when the safe distance was about to be opened, more than 20 antimatter missiles were accurately fired at the bombardment point, and these planets, which had taken millions or even hundreds of millions of years to converge, turned into meteors in the sky at this moment, and became interstellar dust again, drifting towards all corners of the universe.
Pingzu Pass is a slender section, like a bottleneck, from the pass inward, the space is gradually opened. At this moment, Carmon's fleets were lined up, like wasps in a hive, densely gearing up, waiting to punish those who dared to poke the honeycomb.
"The battleships in front retreated, and the battleships in the rear pushed flat, compressing the distance between the battle lines."
Under Murray's orders, the huge fleet, as well as the operational command center in the rear, slowly moved forward. The Camon fleet at the pass was still standing still, and everyone knew that the other side was about to launch a general attack.
"The 5,000 Cheetah commandos on standby in the rear are the vanguard, and the 80,000 integrated ships follow, divided into three groups to charge in a wedge-shaped assault formation."
In order to attack the narrow checkpoint head-on, it is necessary to organize a strong breakthrough, and in combination with the special pattern of Pingzu Pass, as long as it can break through to the open area in front, it can cooperate with the rear combat troops to wipe out the remnants of the pass, so as to seize the pass.
All the attack energy of the 5000 troops in the vanguard charge is used to strengthen the defense, and the navigation energy intercepts the advance. The troops on both flanks covered the attack, and all losses were automatically replenished by the center.
If we say, the battle to break the shield is a contest between spear and shield. Then the battle of Chongguan is like an arrow piercing a pool of still water, and it is no longer about whose spear is sharp and whose shield is strong, but whose kinetic energy is stronger, whose kinetic energy is stronger, and whose resistance is greater.
At the moment of receiving fire, all the battleships at the pass fired a salvo at the assault unit, and all the battleships on the left and right flanks fired a salvo at the battleship at the pass. It will be effortless to pierce the entrance, but whether this sword can continue to gain momentum or be strong at the end of the crossbow depends on the effect of rushing into the pass.
The battleships of Carmon, densely arranged along the depth of the pass, pierced with sharp swords, had to face resistance in all directions. Strong military literacy, so that the entire shock team condensed into a solid whole, the consumption of the left and right wings is automatically replenished by the middle, and the front-end consumption is automatically replenished by the front-end 5000 warships.
He Yongnian was located in the center of the rear of the assault force, and the battle damage of each battleship affected his heart, and his eyes were always on the two data of the number of battle losses and the impact distance. Seeing that the wear and tear of the sharp arrows had reached the limit, He Yongnian resolutely ordered: "Stop the charge, the line head troops will spread out into a net, hold the pass in reverse, the central troops will cooperate, and the left and right wing troops will advance in reverse, cooperate with the friendly forces outside the pass, and clear the pass." โ
The tip of the wedge-shaped impact array is flattened out in three layers longitudinally. The central shock fleet followed the arrangement, with three layers added after three, but the last three layers were more dense. The power energy takes over the attack energy and begins to release the force field, and the attack energy fully attacks and supports the entire cross-section of the pass.
Both flanks hovered and began to charge in reverse, and as the formation spread, countless combat boats were released from the integrated warships, wandering between the showers of bullets, and dropping bombs at close range at critical points.
"The entrance fleet is holding on, focusing on defense, and the inner ship formation is squeezing forward, and they want to attack our pass on both sides, so we will cut them off first."
Minsaro saw through Murray's plan at a glance, and the density of warships in the passway was getting bigger and bigger, and the first battleship layer was about to be broken. He Yongnian thought to himself, if the battle of breaking the cover did not lose so many V86 assault ships, if the Blue Domain was built with stronger and more powerful assault ships for another 20 years, then there would be no need to kill so many people. Good before the assault. He agreed with Murray in advance on a battle plan. Seeing that there were more and more warships in the pass, another combat command flew out.
"The whole army should pay attention, starting from the position of the pass, all the warships will retreat as quickly as possible, and the barrier inside the pass will be covered."
"The defeat is like a mountain, General Minsaro, I will definitely start my father when I go back, and reward you well."
"All the troops are squeezing forward, and the passes ahead are tightened." The latter, hearing Rykov's words, immediately ordered.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the battle in the pass, and no one noticed that the two giant space carriers, the Xingtian and the Gonggong, appeared under the cover of the ship array, and the whole ship began to recharge.
"The command ship listens to the order and saturates the attack. Goal, Sekido. โ
This is Murray's purpose, to use the method of fleet assault to induce all the enemy warships to gather at the pass, and slowly guide to the position of the pass, and finally sacrifice the killing move: Xingtian and Gonggong.
8 antimatter mines, so that the blue domain got enough energy, created the largest antimatter missile in history, under the muzzle of Xingtian, Gonggong, the Kamon people understand what is terror: force field protection? It is completely useless, even if the missile explodes at a distance of 1000 km, the energy will shatter the shield. Intercept? No, within the effective distance of interception, it is also the effective distance of the missile to break the defense. The energy release of the missile can be said to be specially customized for today's warships, and the Pingzu Pass at this moment is like a cave besieging a swarm of bees, and under the artillery fire outside the cave entrance, all the bees have nowhere to escape.
The missile rain continued to rain for a day and night, until the light of the explosion ceased to come out, and the missiles fired were like stones sinking into the sea, and Murray ordered a halt to the attack. It can be assured that all the substances, including debris, have been cleared of the Pingzu Pass Road, and there is nothing in the pass.
"The left flank counted 20,000 integrated warships and went to Guandao, and when they encountered the enemy, they were killed."
Hearing Murray's order, he had already withdrawn from the pass, and the 20,000 integrated ships arrayed on the left flank of the command ship automatically led the order to attack the pass.
Everyone waited silently for news from the stormtroopers, but there was no sound in the hole of the gate. There was not even a sign of fighting.
"Is it that the enemy withdrew, he, they ran away." A counsellor gave his reasoning.
"Call the Stormtroopers now."
The powerful gravitational communication wave was projected into the pass, but there was still no echo in the dark pass.
"Send another 2,000 teams to investigate." Murray ordered the 2000 ship reconnaissance team on the right flank to go forward, advancing cautiously, and the speed was significantly slower than the former.
Three days have passed, and there are at least 50,000 large and small detection ships that have sailed into the pass, but the pass is still pitch black, there is no echo, there is no sign of battle, only the pitch-black pass, in front of everyone's eyes, calm and weird and terrifying.
