Volume 3 Interstellar Expedition Chapter 17 Bloody Battle and Ancestral Pass 5
The deep passage is not an exaggeration to describe it as a bottomless pit. The Blue Domain Expeditionary Force has been at the pass for more than 20 days, and all the probe boats and warships that have entered the passage have not returned. What's even more terrifying is that all the sound, light, and gravitational detection devices are used, and in the channel, there is either no data, or everything is normal.
"How's the rear detection team doing?" Once again, all the counsellors gathered together to discuss a solution.
"Most of the teams sent back their last messages, but they were killed by halfway enemy ambushes. There was no reply to the others, and it is estimated that there was no time to even send a message. ”
"I think it's better to consider my proposal, and all the troops go around behind the pass."
"Don't talk about things that were denied centuries ago. Except for the smooth passage of Pingzu Pass, all other parts are obstacles, and a large-scale march is simply impossible. Moreover, it is not known how many ambushes there were. ”
"Or? Shall we withdraw? Chu Tiankuo said something that many people didn't dare to say if they wanted to.
"Absolutely impossible, the war has been halfway through, the pass has been broken, we were actually scared back by a black hole, and we lost so many warships and soldiers, how can we explain to the people of the entire galaxy?" In fact, Murray's main focus is on the last sentence.
"I mean, pretend to evacuate, set up an observatory nearby, and slowly infiltrate to see what kind of conspiracy they are playing?"
Chu Tiankuo's words gave everyone a big step, which can not only stop the loss, but also keep the results in front of them, and it can be called a strategic retreat.
Hearing this, everyone has begun to focus their thinking on how to evacuate strategically. No one noticed, and a dark figure appeared in the corner.
Lee Kant deliberately let Murray catch a glimpse of him and then walked towards the stairs under the bridge, and Murray immediately followed, and the two were silent all the way until they entered Murray's private quarters.
"The situation inside the passage is complicated, and now no one knows what is going on inside except for the top level of Carmon's strategic command."
"I also spent a lot of energy on my side, and there was no progress at all."
"Don't talk about this, here's another piece of information, you can take a look. This war is far from being as simple as you think. ”
Murray took the file, and the black USB flash drive encapsulated by the force field scanned Murray's physical information and projected it into a three-dimensional drawing: it was a design drawing of a planet, an artificial planet, and an artificial planetary weapon.
If the fortress planet at the pass is a planet with cannons installed, then the one in front of you can be said to be a planet with cannons as the main body.
"This kind of weapon, Blue Domain has also been conceived, but many technical details cannot be solved, so it is stranded. Although it is slightly smaller than the Xingtian, this thing has abandoned the interstellar voyage module, and its attack effectiveness should be higher than that of these two most advanced ships. And I can guarantee that this weapon is now in Pingzu Pass. ”
"So, could this be the reason why all the warships disappeared at Pingzu Pass?"
"Probably not, in that case there should be at least traces of the battle. A weapon of this level is nothing more than a powerful point of artillery fire, and it has not yet reached the level of being able to wipe out tens of thousands of combat fleets without a sound. ”
"It's even more troublesome." Murray fell into deep thought.
"Okay, I've brought the information, you can discuss how to make a decision, and I'll continue to deal with my affairs."
The news of the planetary cannon shocked the entire strategist layer, and it also tore apart the strategic retreat plan that had just been conceived. At a loss, a bright light suddenly came from the passage.
"Report to the commander-in-chief, signs of firefighting have been detected in the pass."
"20,000 warships, dispatch at once. Send a front-line message first, then exchange fire. ”
20,000 warships were ordered to attack, and after a while, there was a cry for help from the communicator, and the exchange of fire in the pass was even more fierce.
"The Gonggong is waiting here, with the Xingtian as the center, and all the fleets are moving forward."
Murray decided to go and see for himself what the Cammonians were up to.
The remaining more than 60,000 warships passed through the Pingzu Pass and marched towards the deep pass. The faint sound of firefights and chaotic cries for help made everyone's hearts tremble. However, this situation did not last long, and the passage was quiet again.
"Is it all wiped out again?" Many people are full of doubts. The more silent it is, the easier it is for people to imagine, and the more they imagine, the more the idea of annihilation is infinitely magnified in their hearts.
However, the sky outside the gate was still surprisingly calm, looking at the starry sky outside the ship through the partition, except for the meteorites that escaped in the great battle and turned into meteors and shone frequently, the sky outside the gate was still as clear as water.
The further you move into the pass, the more sparse the starry sky becomes. Even if the bright light is turned on to the maximum, all the bright light is swallowed up by the endless darkness, and there is not a trace of reflection. The ship was moving at a turtle speed, and after 6 days of sailing, it still found nothing. The endless void and long hours of darkness make everyone feel as if they have been exiled by time. Under strong psychological pressure, some people stared out the window blankly, chanting words in their mouths; Someone roared wildly; Someone was completely crushed, and opened the outer hole of the battleship without permission and became a piece of space junk.
Murray knew that it would be a greater degree of discourage to sail like this, so he ordered all the personnel to enter the dormant chamber except for the personnel who ensured the navigation and attack missions of all the warships. At the same time, the command is to double the speed of advance.
All the pretense will eventually come to an end. After another 2 days, a large number of warships were spotted at the extreme position of the real-time detection distance.
"Report to the Governor, a large number of enemy ships have been spotted ahead."
"Don't be impulsive. Maintain the current speed, the force field protection is strengthened, do not fire first. ”
"30,000 battleships paused with the main ship to hold the rear passage, and the other warships continued to advance. Release the airship and probe at the forefront. ”
With Murray's order, everyone was woken up from the hibernation pod. Obviously, it is much better to face the enemy than to face the fear in your heart, and as soon as you see Carmon, everyone is excited, and they automatically enter the battle mode.
Both sides of the battle are bowstrings wide open, and the saber is rattling. But no one has ever shot an arrow, one side has no bottom in his heart, and the other side has a ghost in his heart.
However, the answer was soon revealed, and the enemy warships did not make a move until the fleet was close at hand. However, instead of choosing to attack, they retreated in an unusually fast arc path with unusually fast acceleration.
The fleet knew the answer immediately, and beneath the force field covered by the enemy ships in a formation was a neutron star that was collapsing into a black hole. The Camon battleship chose the ultimate position of the gravitational force that the battleship could withstand, combined with the force field generator and three-dimensional projection, and forged a normal gateway space, thereby concealing the possibility of neutron stars being detected in advance.
The moment the enemy ships withdrew, the powerful gravitational torrent converged into a huge vortex, dragging all the battleships towards the black hole.
The distortion of time and space tore the unsuspecting airship to pieces first; Gravitational tearing, all warships will be sucked into the torrent before they can turn on reverse acceleration in the future; Energy devouring, the powerful energy generated by the collapse adds to the hardships of all the exhausted battleships.
"Warp space in a way that releases energy, and we do it. But to distort space-time by compressing matter to create gravity, we probably won't be able to do it for another century. How did they get it? And how do you control the collapse? We're far worse than others. ”
Chu Tiankuo's perception lingered in everyone's minds, and Murray finally understood that those battleships that entered the space to explore disappeared without even sending a distress message: electromagnetic signals could not escape the capture of the black hole at all, even if a battleship exhausted all its energy to send a gravitational signal, in the extremely distorted black hole, time and space were far slower than the outside world, and some warships might just think of this before they could move, and the fleet rushed in.
But the reality of the situation no longer allows the two to think too much, and the strong gravitational pull has dragged the remnants of the fleet towards the center of the vortex. Murray personally manipulated the Xingtian reverse acceleration energy to temporarily weaken for a millisecond and then re-increase to its strongest. One millisecond was enough time for the Xingtian to distance itself from the fleet, and the Xingtian, which was stagnant in the rear, stretched out a powerful force field on its own, ensuring that the rest of the warships could escape.
However, contrary to expectations, the planetary cannon from Li Kangde's intelligence appeared on the course of the evacuation. The ships that were the first to withdraw were the first to be strafed by the cannons and burst into flames. The battleships in the rear had never fought against such powerful firepower, they were not opponents at all, and had to fight and retreat. The gravitational vortex, which had managed to escape, tore at the edge of the fleet again.
"Call the Gonggong and order your ship to go to Pingzu Pass with all the remaining troops immediately to cover the evacuation of the other warships. Be sure to hover over the firing at the coordinates I sent. ”
With the news and specific coordinates in the pass, the Gonggong no longer had to worry about the mysteries in the pass, and completed the fleet's nearly 10-day journey in 10 minutes.
The planetary cannon has long been on guard against the Gonggong on the periphery. The original plan to destroy this cannon by sneaking up on the back of the Gonggong and encircling the internal warships was immediately shattered at the moment of fire: the planetary cannon used the only navigation energy to disintegrate into 6 "small cannons" before the Gonggong was still stable, and the firepower was fully circled to the rear of the Gonggong.
Seeing that a plan to flank the front and rear was once again calculated by the other side, and once again became a "dumpling" situation, Murray ordered again: "All warships are fully equipped with force field protection to deal with the gravitational vortex in the rear, and I will also pass." ”
The firepower of the planetary cannon was steadily hit by Li Kangde's analysis, although it was slightly smaller than the Xingtian battleship in shape, but because all the comprehensive modules were abandoned, the entire planet was created with combat as the main module, completely crushing the two strongest warships of the Blue Domain civilization. The two giant ships, tired of dealing with the firepower, retreated back again and again, and the space behind them was compressed step by step, seeing that the entire fleet was about to enter the gravitational vortex, Murray had no choice but to give one last command in despair - a distress order.
"Report to the supreme head of the Blue Domain, this is the Xingtian, I am the military governor Murray, when our fleet captured Pingzu Pass, it encountered the joint resistance of the three advanced scientific and technological products of the planetary fortress, the planetary cannon, and the black hole gravitational vortex, the planetary fortress has been broken, and the fleet fell into the double trap of the planetary cannon and the black hole gravitational vortex, and the entire fleet is about to die interstellar, so I warn the latecomers not to step into the trap again."
"Xingtian, report your location!"
Murray didn't expect that the message he had just sent would immediately echo, and this voice was something he could never forget for the rest of his life.
"Xingtian, report your location, I'm Dewey!"
"Pingzu Guan Road, 76524 km section minus 35 ° angle 1010 direction."
"Received, stabilize the morale of the army immediately, I will be here in a quarter of an hour, and cooperate with you to break through!"
