Dodging the tangled Leona, Robin followed the structure of the transport ship from memory to find the arsenal equipped with the TR-735 transport, and to his surprise, the two gunners and his team members happened to be in this arsenal, and judging by the laughter that rang out from time to time, they were still chatting quite happily.

Standing by the door and listening for a while, the topics that these men talked about really made Robin unhappy, especially Lee, this open-mouthed guy was about to say that Robin was a heinous silver stick, and if it weren't for the fact that there was still a place to use him in the future, Robin would have rushed in and fought him right now.

"Ahem......"

Coughing twice at the door to show his presence, Robin walked into the arsenal with a stiff face.

And when they found that Robin was coming, the expressions of everyone inside were suddenly a little embarrassed, and they lowered their heads with evasive eyes, only Li still laughed heartlessly.

Robin walked up to him and glared at him, and said angrily, "Lee, have you checked all the weapons on this ship?" ”

"Huh?" Being yelled at by Robin like this, Li had some recollection, and stopped laughing and replied: "Almost all of them have been checked, although they are all old guns, but they are well maintained." ”

"What about the ship's structure and corridor topography? Figured it all out? ”

"It's not ...... yet" Li was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted: "What, do you think there will be a battle soon?" ”

"There are two meteorite belts to get from Charon to the interstellar route, and in the meteorite belt, we can only travel at low speeds, so it takes us a full 24 hours to reach our destination. Don't forget, the latest intelligence suggests that a Federation Ray troop carrier has taken a group of infantry from Charon, so it's possible that the mongrels are also in this meteorite belt. ”

With a 24-hour sailing time, that doesn't sound like a lot. However, it should be known that if the fastest speed of a spaceship is sailed at sub-light speed, the time taken from Charon to Pluto is theoretically no more than 0.06 seconds. Even to the distant Earth, it only takes 6 days, and although the actual voyage will be a little different due to the shipping lane, you can basically reach any place in the solar system within 15 days.

So a 24-hour voyage, it's actually a long journey. And unlike the light-speed voyage on the interstellar lane, where there is no need to think about attack, this kind of low-speed voyage is now full of dangers, and most of the voyage time is spent in meteorite belts, which has to be vigilant.

Since Lee and Colin have been fighting on the surface since they joined the army, they do not have a strong sense of the time of space warfare, and they did not carefully review these contents after boarding the ship, so they ignored the almost electric mode of engagement in space warfare. And now, after being woken up by Robin, Lee and Colin suddenly realize the seriousness of the problem.

That's right, if you are ambushed in a complex terrain such as a meteorite belt, the time difference between the detection of the enemy and the time when the enemy launches an assault boat to engage the board will not even exceed 30 seconds. This blink of an eye was not even enough time for the defenders to run to the breach of the assault boat, so in the case of a surprise attack, it was often the enemy assault boat that had already penetrated the hull before the defenders could react.

And small transport ships, which have neither ferocious anti-aircraft fire nor hard shells, shorten the enemy's landing time. Therefore, in this case, the unprepared defenders simply could not effectively use the hull terrain to defend themselves.

In a space battle where enemy breakouts are possible every second, 24 hours has become a maddening long time. Robin, as the defender, has a terrain advantage that is completely dependent on the ship itself, which makes it almost impossible to defend small ships, and the defense becomes more difficult.

"Damn, you should have reminded me!" As a radar soldier, Colin was the first to wake up to this crisis, and immediately ran out of the arsenal like the wind, ready to use his third-order information processing ability to familiarize himself with the terrain of the transport ship in the shortest possible time.

Lee also ran out after Colin, as the most terrain-dependent sniper, he needed Colin to pick out all the sniper positions in the battleship for him, so as not to find even a suitable sniper position during the battle.

As soon as Colin and Lee left, the seven privates in the arsenal were a little dispossessed. Because they suddenly found that Robin, the captain of the recruits, did not seem to be as incompetent as they imagined, and it can be seen from the reactions of the two veterans, Colin and Lee, that among the three lieutenants with the same rank, Robin has absolute authority, which suddenly made them who had just laughed at Robin quite embarrassed and panicked.

"Don't know what to do?" Robin swept over the group of recruits who didn't dare to look at him with their heads down, snorted coldly, and threw an electronic notebook into the hands of one person: "There are a few combat videos here, while there is still time, hurry up and take a look." Remembering the respective combat positions inside, we don't have time to practice. ”

"Yes!"

The recruits, who had received the exact order, gathered around the corner and began to study the tactical video that Robin had thrown at them.

"You're gunners Andy and Aven?" After dealing with the members of his team, Robin turned his gaze to the two who were sitting side by side, looking a little panicked.

"Yes, sir!" Hearing Robin call out their names, Andy and Evan immediately stood up and saluted.

"You belong to the crew sequence, you don't have to salute me." Robin put away his cold tone and said to them with a pleasant face: "I have read your records, you have been on this transport ship for seven months and have participated in three battles. ”

Seeing that Robin didn't seem to be angry with them, Andy and Evan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and nodded, "Yes, sir." ”

"Can you take me to see your turret?"

"Yes, sir."

Although it is unknown why Robin, the new Marine Captain, would be interested in their battery battery, Andy and Evan still take Robin up the elevator and into the gunner's cabin.

Compared to the other working compartments of the transport ship, the gunner's cabin is undoubtedly the smallest of them. Sitting in it, Robin even felt like he was walking through a bathroom, but through the transparent dome of the dome, he could see the bright starry sky and colorful cosmic scenery outside the window, which he liked very much.

Turning on the space radar on the gunner's bench, Robin took a cursory look and asked, "What is the maximum radiation area of the radar?" ”

Hearing Robin's question, Andy hesitated for a moment and said truthfully: "If it is in a meteorite belt, it is difficult for radar to work. Because some of the gases in the meteorite belt also produce energy reactions, and when the air mass is mixed with meteorites, the radar cannot automatically distinguish whether it is an enemy aircraft or a meteorite. ”

"Can't tell?" Robin was taken aback and said hurriedly: "Does that mean that the cannon can't work at all?" ”

"Automatic shooting is definitely not going to work, but under normal circumstances, we will use semi-automatic mode, using sight combined with radar to lock on to the target."

The two gunners seem to be in the dominant position, so Robin's questions are basically answered by him.

"Eyesight?" Robin couldn't believe that he was still using the unreliable locking method of eyesight in space warfare, so he asked, "What is the effective range of these two 70mm cannons?" ”

"The maximum range is 800 km, but the effective range of maintaining a ballistic trajectory should be only 555 km."

"Something 555 kilometers away, can you tell with the naked eye in a second?" Robin shook his head with a wry smile, now, he didn't have any hope for the two cannons.

Andy obviously also understood the meaning of Robin's words, and said with a red face: "It's difficult to judge accurately, so most of us make judgments based on direct and combined with radar data. But to be honest, if they were to be attacked, the two rotating cannons would not be of much use. With the defensive power of the Federation's Arrows, we can't shoot them down even if we hit them, and at most we can only get them off course. ”

"What are the chances of a shot?" Robin asked casually.

"This ......" Andy gritted his teeth with a struggling expression, and replied truthfully: "With less than a 1% chance, it is difficult to form a fire defense network with two cannons alone, and 1% is already our limit." ”

"Is 1% ......"

Robin looked up and sighed, muttering to himself, "Forget it, it's better to have 1% than no hope at all......"

“……”

Seeing that Robin was silent, Evan, who had not spoken, suddenly asked in a low voice, "Sir, do you think we will really be attacked?" ”

"Who knows, but if they have the chance, those defeated Federation forces won't mind biting us, so at least they can account for their defeat on the battlefield of Charon."

"Then we're not dead! ~" Robin's answer made Evan's face change dramatically, as a survivor of the previous attack, he still clearly remembered the fear that spread like poison when he was on the verge of death.

"Don't be so pessimistic, even if you can't hit them in space, but in the hull, our bullets are very accurate." Robin smiled lightly, patted Evan on the shoulder, and said, "If the worst happens, I want you to leave the gun position immediately, go to the arsenal and get a gun to join the fight." You know, this ship is so big, if I lose, then ...... No one on this ship will survive. ”

“……”

Robin's half-threatening words made Andy and Aven's faces stiffen, and after they looked at each other, they nodded at Robin: "We know what to do." ”

"Haha...... Then pray that my hunch is wrong. Robin took a sip and muttered scoldingly: "If you can not fight, the ghost is willing to fight with those bastards in the space where birds don't shit!" ”
