192, siege

Using the data and information collected by the ships themselves, as well as the information sent by the Babylon through the battlefield data connection, the AI of the 12 ships simulated the previous battles in this star system in detail, and demonstrated them to everyone present as quickly as possible.

In the area about two light-seconds away from the current planet of Neobabylon, clumps of ruins and wreckage twisted together to form a huge belt of wreckage, although they have been completely destroyed, but the AI of the twelve battleships still recognized it for the first time - the Confederate dreadnought, a planetary warship proportional to its power and size, basically a weapon no different from the "Death Star" built by the Galactic Empire in the famous science fiction work "Star Wars".

In the pictures and simulations given by the optical cameras, just over ten minutes ago, and just before the destruction of the planet Neobabylon, hundreds of fighter jets and four battleships stationed in the Star Ring were jumping towards the sudden appearance of the Confederate dreadnoughts, but these suddenly appeared Confederate dreadnoughts naturally prepared as soon as they entered the star system, and the super laser cannon shot towards Neobabylon as soon as they entered the battlefield. And the next moment they opened fire, the combat units of the UN Planetary Defense Force Orbital Fleet jumped out of the jump channel.

The huge battleship was naturally attacked by the Confederate convoy for the first time, but the sub-light railgun still bombarded the Confederate dreadnought without hesitation, which itself could destroy the planet with a single shot when using specific ammunition, and easily destroyed the Confederate dreadnought, but the second, third, and fourth Confederate dreadnoughts jumped out of the original superluminal speed and took over the bombardment of Neo-Babylon without the slightest hesitation. This almost made the attack on Neo-Babylon without the slightest interval or pause.

Quantity overpowers quality in that moment. The first salvo of four battleships directly wiped out the first Confederate dreadnought, but only by the little time it took for the turret to turn and reload the ammunition. The Confederate dreadnoughts began to relay one after another. And the attack of the Confederate frigates also gave the Confederate dreadnoughts some time.

In the end, four battleships and hundreds of fighters destroyed all the Confederate dreadnoughts at the cost of remaining on the battlefield forever. But they, like the three orbital bombers, did not stop their devastating assault on Neo-Babylon.

At this point, the simulation stops.

Just a few seconds ago, when Task Force 7 jumped out of the jump lane, the AI marked all possible threats at the fastest speed, and modern battleships can lock on to almost unlimited targets at the same time, but in general, the ship's weapons are still limited, so the target identification officer needs to mark the ship after the first thing to attack.

Of course, AI can also do this kind of thing on its behalf, but in general, it is better for AI and people to work together.

That is, at the same time that all the crew members of Task Force 7 were looking at the light screens and simulations that popped up. The ship is fully operational.

The moment the rest of the ships such as the Texas, the Okukin, and the New Texas entered normal space, the turrets capable of delivering devastating attacks turned towards their possible targets with the agility of a human wrist and under the guidance of the target recognition system.

The unrivaled attack came after the Texas' tactical operations officer removed the two light screens in front of him, and after his command to open fire, the gunners of the twelve battleships simultaneously pressed the red button on the controllers in their hands.

The salvo of twelve battleships formed a death arc with a radius of one light-second, and many of the Confederate warships that were rushing up to make up for the final slash on the Babylon and the Otetsu behind him were reduced to wreckage or splinters at that moment.

The closer you get to Task Force 7, and the more you get to victory, the more miserable the Confederate ships become, and with the support of UN fire control, targets in half a light second are almost indistinguishable from a close-to-face shot for a human warship.

The huge kinetic energy encased in the sub-light velocity kinetic energy projectile when it came out of the chamber made contact with the Confederate battleship, turning the Confederate battleship into powder.

Although in space, the drag can basically be said to be zero, so theoretically the speed will get faster and faster. The power will be more and more powerful. However, unless it is a deliberate alignment shot, the angle of the barrel is different when firing in all directions, so the barrage of bullets fired at close range can be called a dense barrage, but once the distance becomes longer. There is still a very large gap in the barrage formed by just about 1,000 guns.

If you can't hit, then even if the power is great, it is useless, so naturally, the safer the target is in the distance where there is more room for evasion.

The battle entered a white-hot state at the first time.

Task Force 7, which jumped out of the jump passage, went straight to the location of the remnants of the Neo-Babylon Planetary Defense Fleet's orbital fleet, the Babylon and the Ortetsu. But it also meant that they went straight to the very center of the battlefield.

The first strafing of Task Force 7 was nothing more than a takeout of the enemy "close at hand", and a large number of Confederate warships were still lining up for Task Force 7.

At this time, they are not yet able to directly perform standard tactical maneuvers to reduce the probability of enemy hits and their own distance advantage.

The two standard-class battleships, the New Texas and the Texas, were in normal space at the first time. The nanopackets that he had urgently replenished in the New Texas system were projected through a multi-purpose projector to the two battleships that were very badly damaged, the Babylon and the Ortetsu.

The damage to both ships is also the reason why Task Force 7 now needs to face enemy fire almost like a target.

In the previous battle, two ships were already in a state of ruin, which also caused damage to the structure and all-round stance of both ships, as well as the gravity generators. And the instantaneous high acceleration and high-G maneuver of modern starships need to rely on these things. Otherwise, it may be one thing for the battleship to fall apart and disintegrate, and the crew inside may simply turn into a meatloaf or simply a pool of blood.

Therefore, they can only perform the most basic activities such as movement and steering until the necessary repairs are made, but the action is almost equivalent to a straight line, even if the speed is very fast, it is just a target for the warring parties in the space war, and it can be predicted and locked very easily.

No matter how bad the Confederation is, it is an interstellar civilization consortium that has been fighting against human beings for hundreds of years, and they can naturally do what planet-level civilizations can do. (To be continued.) )
