Chapter 357: Bloody Battle II
The small spaceship of the Kara civilization will be directly destroyed once it is hit by the electromagnetic railgun of the human being, and the medium and large space battleship will also cause very great damage if it is hit by the shells of the electromagnetic railgun, of course, these are the effects of ordinary electromagnetic railgun shells.
If they are hit by the shells fired by the human capital ships, that is, those warships of more than five million tons in the human fleet, even the large space warships of the Kara civilization will not be able to withstand it, and even the cruisers they purchased from the black bear civilization will not be able to stand it.
Just as the commander of the fleet of the Kara civilization was surprised by the power of the cannonballs fired by the human civilization, her flagship suddenly shook violently, and then he heard a violent noise, which he knew was the reason why his flagship was hit by an enemy warship.
So they say give the order to check the wounds of the battleship.
The result made him even more frightened, because unlike what she had imagined, she thought that their flagship had only been slightly injured in the process of being hit, after all, although the battleship had shaken badly, the explosion that had obviously been heard was not very powerful.
But in fact, the inspector of the battleship just now told him that the battleship is still quite seriously injured, and the left side of the battleship was hit by the shell of the opponent's civilization, although although the shell that was hit was not very large, the caliber was only 230 mm, but the damage caused was quite serious, and the left side of their flagship was almost penetrated by this shell, which caused her a great irritation, although he wanted to go to the place where he was hit, whether the inspectors of the battleship were lying to him, but as the commander of this interception fleet, She could not leave her combat post, especially during the war with the other side.
So although she was very shocked that the flagship was hit by the other side and caused great damage, after all, the technician had just told him that the shell that hit them was not very large, and the shell did not explode. It's just damage from a purely physical blow. But the physical blow of such a small cannonball was so powerful, and through this cannonball, she knew that this cannonball must have been fired by the opponent's small spaceship, not a large space battleship.
However, the cannonballs fired by such a small warship are so powerful, and the flagship she is in is a space cruiser purchased from the black bear civilization, although for the black bear civilization, such a space cruiser is a backward product that has long been eliminated, but the defense of this battleship is very powerful, even thicker than the defense of the current cruiser of the black bear civilization military, you can imagine how powerful the opponent's main gun is.
He then immediately ordered the fleet to bypass the area that had been struck and release the various space fighters on the ship, because by this time the opposing detachment had reached a place less than ten astronomical units away from them.
But to his disappointment, even if he ordered the fleet to leave the original area, it was still attacked by the enemy's shells, which seemed to have the same tracking effect as their civilized tracking weapons, but after leaving the original area, the power of these shells decreased a lot, and there were still many shells that did not hit them.
In fact, this is very normal, although human beings have installed terminal guidance devices on these shells, but look at how much energy can be expected to be carried on a small shell, not to mention that the speed of these electromagnetic railgun shells reaches 70% of the speed of light after launching, it is very difficult to change direction at such a speed, so the very trajectory of these shells can only be slightly modified, and the direction of modification is one-time, especially when the shell is about to hit the opponent, At this time, the other party suddenly turned and was no longer in the same place, so the shells could not reach the other party, even if the shells wanted to modify the trajectory, it was too late, after all, the speed of this batch of shells was too fast.
Then he immediately ordered the fleet to speed up the flight, because she found that the other party had left the area where they were hitting, after all, the shaped cannon they fired did not have the same orbit correction ability as the electromagnetic railgun launched by the earth civilization, and the shells they fired could only move in a straight line, and because of the distance, a few shells hitting the opponent would not cause any damage.
After all, the shaped cannon and the electromagnetic railgun used by their civilization and the black bear civilization are completely different types of weapons, and the electromagnetic railgun is a purely physical strike method, and there are no pitfalls and crookedness at all, and what is pursued is the ultimate strike capability of a purely physical way.
The shaped cannon is actually an energy weapon, although the cannonball fired by the concentrating cannon has an absolute advantage in terms of speed, after all, the cannonball emitted by the concentrating cannon can be close to the speed of light or fly at the speed of light, but the energy emitted during the period is very powerful, even if it is his chess main cannon, the energy cannonball fired will lose all its energy at 15 astronomical units. Therefore, compared with the purely physical strike method of electromagnetic railgun, the strike range of the shaped cannon is at an absolute disadvantage.
If you don't want to get close to the opponent's fleet, then the opponent will directly drag your own fleet to death.
On the human side, in addition to Zhu Lei as the commander-in-chief of this fleet, the commander of the vanguard fleet in front is Zhang Ming, that is, after Zhu Lei crossed over, he met the grandson of Zhang Weiguo, the first senior technician, at the Yongan Military Factory.
Although Zhang Ming has worked in the military factory for a long time, he is not very good at technology, although his grandfather Zhang Weiguo is the highest level of skilled worker in the market, but he has no talent in this area at all, and it is already a great gift to be admitted to Xiucai.
So later, when Zhu Lei established the escort team, he directly joined Zhu Lei's escort team, and then followed Zhu Lei until now, compared to his talent in technology, Zhang Ming's talent in military affairs is very powerful, and his sensitivity to war is also very high.
Whether it was the war in the Pangu galaxy or the intrigue between the armies of various countries during the Earth period, he performed very well, plus Zhang Ming and Zhu Lei for so many years, his qualifications are old enough.
So this war with the Kara civilization is the commander of the entire fleet vanguard fleet.
When Zhang Ming commanded the vanguard fleet to fire two hundred shells, the fleet's speed also slowed down due to the recoil force when firing the electromagnetic railgun, and it was only about ten astronomical units away from the opponent.
After all, after more than 200 high-intensity launches, the electromagnetic railguns on the spacecraft in this world also began to heat up, and each time the electromagnetic railgun was launched, it was necessary to gather energy, and the previous more than 200 shells were all completed by relying on the energy storage on the spacecraft.
When the energy storage on the spacecraft is consumed to a certain extent, the firing frequency of the spacecraft must decrease, because at this time, it must take more than ten seconds to recharge the electromagnetic railgun each time it is launched before it can be fired again.
However, at about ten astronomical units, the opponent also fired their shells, and hit some of the warships in the fleet, causing some damage, and even two space battleships had to withdraw from the battle due to the serious injuries in the vital parts of the battle.
After all, although the technological level of human beings surpasses that of the other party, and they are also protected by protective talismans, the warships in the human fleet are not invincible, after all, the other party is a fourth-level civilization, and the human race is only a fourth-level civilization.
Although the Vanguard fleet began to suffer losses, no warships were directly destroyed, which means that not a single warship has been directly destroyed by mankind since the beginning of the war.
However, although two of the Vanguard fleet's space warships had to withdraw from the battle due to their injuries, the casualties were not as high as expected, because it was a small space warship that was hit.
And beware that spaceships are different from large spaceships, although the small spaceships in the human fleet have a tonnage of more than one million tons, in fact, due to the development of human intelligence technology, it only takes a few hundred people to control a million-ton space warship.
So the two spaceships that were hit all added up to only fifty or sixty people.
But in any case, this is the first casualty since humans walked in space, and it also made the entire human fleet realize the cruelty of space warfare.
However, compared with the price of human beings, the casualties of the fleet of the Kara civilization can be described as heavy, under the blow of the first wave of electromagnetic railguns of mankind, the opponent's more than 200,000 space warships have lost nearly 10,000 space warships, but most of them are small and medium-sized warships.
However, due to the large number of fleets of the Kara civilization and the experience of the Kara civilization in space warfare, although it had lost 1/20 of its combat power before the direct engagement, it did not panic as soon as it was lost like the low-level civilization, but quickly shortened the distance between the two sides.
When the distance between the two fleets was only eight astronomical units, the human vanguard fleet also began to send its own space fighters, and the human space warships also began to stop their electromagnetic railguns and start firing various missiles instead.
Because after dispatching his own space fighters, if he continues to fire electromagnetic railguns, he will inevitably accidentally injure his own space fighters.
However, the fleet did not stop advancing, but followed the fighters and began to change their flight trajectory, and then continued to fire various electromagnetic railguns.
In this way, the two sides kept changing their flight tracks to avoid each other's attacks, and when the fleets of both sides were only five astronomical units, the space fighters sent by the two sides began to make contact and began to engage in a fierce battle.
And with the advancement of the distance between the fleets between the two sides, the hit rate of various artillery pieces has also increased, especially the shaped cannon used by the Kara civilization, although the power of the shaped cannon is inferior to that of the electromagnetic railgun, but the speed of the shaped cannon is that the electromagnetic railgun can't catch up.
After all, the shaped cannon used by the Kara civilization is an energy weapon, which can fly in the universe at a speed close to the speed of light or the speed of light, and the electromagnetic railgun launched by humans, because the speed of the warship has dropped down now, only a few hundred kilometers per second, so the electromagnetic railgun fired can only reach 50% of the speed of light at the fastest, and the electromagnetic railgun launched by those space frigates is only 20% to 30% of the speed of light on average.
So when the distance between the two sides was only three astronomical units, the hit rate of the shaped cannon fired by the Kara civilization was much higher.
However, as the distance between the fleets of the two sides continued to get closer, the other weapons on the Human Vanguard Fleet also began to exert their power, although theoretically the range of the laser weapons and particle beam weapons on the human world reached five astronomical units, but at a distance of five astronomical units, there was no lethality at all, let alone destroying the other party's spaceship.
Therefore, these energy weapons in the human fleet have an effective kill range of three astronomical units.
As these energy beam weapons of the human race began to wield their power, all of a sudden, colorful beams of light pierced the sky and flew away like the fleet of the Kara civilization.
These energy beam weapons emitted by the human fleet are fundamentally different from the energy cannon of the Kara civilization, although these energy beams emitted by the human civilization look very thin, some are similar to a line, but the energy is very concentrated.
When these rays hit the battleship of the Kara civilization, there was no direct explosion as imagined by the Kara civilization, but directly penetrated the spaceship that was hit, and then with the movement of this light, the spaceship was directly cut, although these beams only lasted for a few seconds, but in just a few seconds, to directly cut a space battleship of the Kara civilization in half, you can imagine how amazing the power of these thin beams is.
Although at this moment, the vanguard fleet of humans in the battlefield will also have several spaceships from time to time, which will explode and then disintegrate due to being hit by the opponent's main gun, but the Kara civilization has suffered even more losses, and several spaceships will disintegrate due to serious injuries every second.
Although the energy weapons launched by the human fleet are so powerful that small ships will be cut in half if they are hit, medium and large ships are unable to penetrate in one go, although these energy weapons can cause significant damage to them due to their size and armor.
Although the energy weapons in the battlefield are flying sideways, and there are beams of light shuttling between the battlefields everywhere, hitting a spaceship from time to time, but in fact, the most damage is caused by electromagnetic railguns, especially the damage caused by the main guns of large spaceships in humans, even the space cruisers purchased by the Kara civilization from the black bear civilization will be directly destroyed as long as they are hit a few rounds.
And the electromagnetic railgun is different from other weapons, especially energy weapons.
The frequency of electromagnetic railguns firing shells is much faster than that of energy weapons, and although the frequency of fire from the main guns of medium and large space warfare is much slower than before contact, it is not comparable to energy weapons, and it can fire at least five or six shells per minute.
Moreover, in addition to the main gun of the spacecraft, other small-caliber electromagnetic railguns require a shorter time to gather energy due to the small caliber, and the higher the firing frequency.
When the caliber of the electromagnetic railgun is less than 200 mm, the frequency of sending is even higher, for example, the 120 mm electromagnetic railgun, which has the smallest caliber of electromagnetic railgun in the human fleet, can even reach a speed of firing more than 100 shells per second.
And because energy weapons need to gather energy for a long time, it is already very remarkable to be able to attack once or twice in a minute.
It can be said that human beings have an absolute advantage in both defense and attack.
