Chapter Eighty-Six: K30 Destruction Operation
In the civilian armed fleet, which has a certain range advantage, the Golden and Harbor, which are at the bottom of the range, will not face a direct threat for the time being, so the main work at this time will be devoted to analyzing the swarm weapons. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The energy level of a spherical flame is in trace amounts and can be understood as a natural flame. Natural flames are also spherical in space, but even an explosion without oxygen support is just a flash, and the fireball on the battlefield burns for at least forty seconds, feeling like a combination of a gas cylinder and an oxygen cylinder setting fire.
The energy of the fireball is not high, and even if it does emit light, the effect on accuracy is limited, and most ships do not rely on optical systems to fire. However, there are a few points that cannot be ignored, the plasma mass of the insect swarm already has a certain repulsion force against the high-energy jet, plus the factor of fireball, or a plasma beam or something, the efficiency of the interceptor weapon will be much lower than that of intercepting a conventional warhead. In addition, the continuous burning of the fireball must have a material basis, and after combustion, it will leave a large number of gaseous or liquid particles in space, which will reduce the energy order of the high-energy jet.
As the intelligence details shared by the outgoing reconnaissance ships increased, the Golden's work was supported by more data, and the source of the captured fireball was live ammunition.
At the same time, recent physical imaging showed that the fireball had a problem with the flame color reaction at the initial moment of combustion, and after listing several possibilities with the help of the second host Doudou, Pan Wen and the tactical team agreed that the projectile had chemical anti-armor capabilities.
It can be used as an armor-piercing incendiary bomb against warships to create a thin gas barrier that burns in space, so that the fireball weapon is no longer exclusive to obscure tactics, and can be used as a regular consumable weapon.
The results of the preliminary analysis had just been quickly sent to the public information channel, and the situation on the battlefield had changed again.
Seeing the familiar plasma jet from the battlefield restoration picture, Pan Wen knew that the big worm had done it, compared to the batch encountered in MR251, the weapon composition of this wave of bugs seemed to be more complicated, in addition to the standard plasma jet, there was also a short jet of the dispersed type, and the lightless high-energy response of the suspected laser weapon.
Even if Pan Wen doesn't want to admit it, the newly generated data on the battlefield is also a declaration that the weapons of the swarm are not much worse than those of humans, and perhaps the accuracy is still lacking, but it is far beyond the ability of the swarm in the "historical" human-insect war and is more threatening.
Although there are many types of weapons at this time, the rear is not the main direction of attack, and the big insect has caused some trouble to the civilian armed fleet after joining the battle, but it has never been able to break through the close defense line of 30,000 to 40,000 kilometers.
After the Golden released the data of the stored and newly analyzed swarm weapons to the public channel, seeing that the swarm did not continue to invest in more types of attacks, it turned its resources to intelligence gathering on the entire battlefield.
The fleet in charge of the right flank was met with even more fierce resistance, and it was clear from the open communications that the swarm had put in a super-giant worm over there, not only with a stronger defense than the wave that the Golden had dealt with at E7, but also seemed to have developed a long-range attack method.
The Golden and the Harbor cannot be separated from the civilian armed fleet alone, and the hyperspace information integrated system cannot be too precise in its analysis of the high-frequency and high-energy response area, even if Pan Wen wants to see the state of the giant worm at this time.
The entire battle lasted nearly half an hour before entering the final stage, and the swarm did not seem to have any intention of winning or winning, and then allowed the combined fleet to enter the far orbit of K30E4. Of course, it is more likely that the swarm is already messing around K30 at this time, and there is not enough strength to fight against this large human fleet locally.
The temporary telecomm began to be assembled, and the transport fleet that came with the civilian armed forces also assumed a defense and reconnaissance platform in the vicinity, and the combined fleet launched a destruction operation against K30E4 after a short rest.
Because of the experience of the human-insect war, the Combined Fleet did not use the means of attack that would cause the planet to disintegrate, but only escorted the Destroyer fleet for orbital bombardment.
The bombing didn't go very well, the swarm had air forces in the atmosphere, and there were even plasma bugs that could bombard low orbits directly from the surface. And in order to ensure the possibility of re-cooling of the K30E4, the orbital bombardment had to abandon the full-load strike mode. In addition, bugs that rush out of the atmosphere from time to time will cause a little trouble for the fleet, and the attack efficiency will be kept at a low level.
The Combined Fleet seems to have no intention of improving bombing efficiency, otherwise it would be a good idea to deploy atmospheric shuttlecocks or conventional warships to target ground interceptors.
Although it is understandable that all parties of the coalition forces are unwilling to expand their losses, in the eyes of the civilian armed forces, it seems to be a waste of time, and they also count on following the combined fleet to pick up some cheap ones.
By the time the bombing had spread to a quarter of the continent, the commissioning of the temporary telecommunications planes had been completed, and a large amount of data was immediately flooded with data in the various frequency bands.
However, before the effective information could be sorted out, a completely unexpected change occurred on the field.
A light cruiser opened fire on a makeshift telecomm!
The temporary telecomm has been deployed for a long time, and it is difficult to directly put it into use on the front line of operations, and in order to improve the mobility ability, such as weapons, fortress-level armor, etc., there is no such thing as weapons, fortress-level armor, etc., and the telecomm that has just been activated at this moment has not had time to turn on the shield.
What's even more serious is that the commander of the combined fleet did not realize the seriousness of the problem at the first time, and even warned the attacking warship first, so the temporary long-range communication plane was hit by the second round of three main guns!
The ship was destroyed on the spot, but the makeshift telecommunications machine, which had been hit by two rounds of artillery without protection, was also destroyed.
The sudden betrayal came from the Combined Fleet, which caused people to panic for a while, and all the ships involuntarily gradually distanced themselves from the other ships, seeing that everyone looked like enemies.
Pan Wen watched the farce on the field on the gold, frowning and his head full of question marks.
He had just asked the second host Doudou to retrieve the information, proving that the ship that caused the accident was in the fleet from the initial deployment stage of jumping into the K30, just like the other ships present, and did not get mixed in halfway.
Why such a ship would help the swarm, and what benefits they could get from it, was completely incomprehensible.
It is an official ship of a certain country, and even if that country has a secret agreement with the swarm to get the essence from the bugs, there is no possibility of a deal going through. Even if the brain-dead passes, and the swarm is stupid enough to comply with the agreement, the pace of expansion will ignore the country's territory, and eventually the country will be hit hard by the disruption of trade, and the sharp decline in the standard of living of the population will likely endanger the foundations of the rule. In short, it is impossible for the swarm to offer the perpetrators a price worthy of betraying all of humanity.
Regardless of the betrayal for the time being, its appearance may be beneficial to the actions of the entire Combined Fleet. Without the temporary telecommator, finally everyone stopped being delusional, the commander gave an order, the destroyer fleet launched a large number of planetary missiles, in less than ten minutes, the world generated by the interweaving of emerald green and blue became a sea of fire, the coastline is retreating at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the sea water will boil within a few hours, and then a huge amount of steam and various toxic gases spewed out of the earth's crust will form a super storm with a speed of more than a thousand kilometers per hour, and expand the thickness of the atmosphere.
Before the analysis of the results was over, the fleet was asked to go to other planets where swarms were stationed.
On the way to K30E2, the Combined Fleet was attacked by a larger swarm than the first.
The swarm invested a total of more than a hundred giant insects this time, and the civilian armed fleet inexplicably became the main attack direction of the giant insects, and more than fifty giant insects joined the attack one after another in just one place.
The giant bugs here were different from what Pan Wen had ever seen, and they seemed to be more agile because they had no sacs that looked like production factories under their giant centipede shapes.
The attack and defense capabilities of the giant bugs at medium distances (about 200,000 kilometers) are comparable to those of medium-sized combat cruisers, but unfortunately the combat accuracy of the laser and plasma beam weapons they use is still very poor, and there is basically not much threat of attack at a distance of 200,000 kilometers. However, even so, after losing a dozen giant insects into the battle range, it still brought huge casualties to the civilian armed fleet.
The civilian armed forces are not armies, and faced with the possibility of large-scale casualties, ships began to retreat. In this case, the Gold and the Harbour with Pan Wen also had to retreat while fighting, and he didn't think that his two ships could handle the hundreds of millions of bugs in front of him.
Fortunately, the local bugs will not be stealthy and the like, and the giant bugs will be detected far enough away, which will give the combined fleet a certain amount of time to react, and when the civilian armed fleet almost collapsed, a fleet with more than 400 frigates rushed to support, and the number of war-damaged ships was controlled to less than 200 searches.
Since there are so many bugs left, why didn't they come out together in the previous attack?
Regarding this question, Pan Wen felt that the bugs had obviously mastered most of the information about human space battles.
In space battles in the Galactic Age, neither the offensive nor the defensive side can accumulate an infinite number at the same point. In the simplest numerical comparison, in a 1v1 fair battle, the comprehensive utilization rate of energy, equipment, and weapon types on both the offensive and defensive sides is about 30%; It can reach 40% at 10v10; At 100v100, it jumps to 80%. The larger the scale, the higher the overall combat effectiveness.
In a battle like this one, if the civilian armed fleet had known in advance that it would not be able to win the war, it might have been instigated by some people to directly drop missile groups of 10,000 units before engaging the battle to form an "impenetrable wall" at important tactical points, and this tactic would not be directly aimed at the enemy, so it would not be possible to be intercepted in a large area. It is generally not used because of the cost, but if it is used, it is definitely a nightmare in mobile warfare -- theoretically, as long as the number of missiles put into it is sufficient, it can carry out physical damage that cannot be quickly repaired for all types of reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance capabilities within a radius of one million kilometers, and at the same time, the "impenetrable wall" will also melt all the objects that are crashed into by blindness, leaving the only choice for both the offensive and defensive sides to leave the scene and fight again in the future, and it is believed that the resistance of the swarm to the ray is definitely not as strong as that of human warships that have been updated for countless generations.
To deal with this batch of bugs, there are already many civilian ships that have the intention of leaving, but because it is impossible to know how many bugs are still lurking in the dark space, they need to wait for more people to publicly say that they will leave together, and this opportunity will be there soon.
Not long after the attack of the swarm, before the combined fleet could enter the K30E2 far orbit, another betrayal appeared!
A total of nine warships and a blow to the Destroyer fleet at the same time!
The number of countries involved in the betrayal fleet has increased to three, and the water inside is too deep, Pan Wen decisively shouted in the public frequency band, and directly pulled the Golden and the Harbor to run first, and the others were not stupid, and immediately Baidu ships followed. Less than twenty minutes later, one of the participating countries of the Combined Fleet announced its withdrawal from the operation.
