Chapter Seventy-Six, Mock Star Warfare 2
The D-class battleship was extremely fast, and it was able to break free from the lock-on of Mary's fleet in one fell swoop. A hundred ships are always out of the effective range of her laser guns. Because the laser cannon is produced by the concentration of laser energy, in the case of too far away, the energy escape will greatly reduce the attack effect.
And with the speed of the D-class battleship, it was still easy to avoid the pursuit of the main battleship, and Mary did not dare to send the fastest D-class battleship alone to pursue. Because this is undoubtedly sending a lone wolf into the dog pack.
While Mary was hesitating about what to do, Lid's frigate took the lead in attacking. A hundred frigates were launched almost simultaneously. Each battleship had twenty torpedo ports, and two thousand interstellar torpedoes flew at the same time from the front to Mary's fleet. The target was the area around Mary's flagship.
The speed of the interstellar torpedo is also extremely fast, although it is less than the speed of light, but it is still easy to catch up with the starship. Moreover, interstellar torpedoes have an automatic positioning and tracking system, and the firing range is calculated to be above the effective range of laser weapons.
Mary frowned, fired her cannons, and shot down all the torpedoes, one by one. There were too many of them, so Mary directly ordered the fleet to fire on its own and destroy the torpedoes.
"This guy is really a layman!" Robben watched Li De's fleet launch an interstellar torpedo and laughed directly, "Isn't this kind of torpedo the target of the other party?" No matter how much it comes, it will not pose a threat to the destroyer. Maybe you won't even be able to pierce the energy shield. ”
"That's it! Miss Mary's fleet formation is so perfect, want to break through with those tattered torpedoes? It's a dream. I think that kid was going to waste time from the beginning. Jason Statham also said on the side.
The fiery red light shone on the starship, and the interstellar torpedoes were exploded one by one, forming white spots of light in the vacuum. After the flash, I saw that where the torpedo exploded, a large area of aluminum foil appeared.
The area of silver aluminum foil is large, and a torpedo can release an area of several square meters of aluminum foil after it is exploded. After a round of torpedo attacks, tens of thousands of square meters of aluminum foil were scattered in the space.
Before anyone could figure out what was going on, Mary saw more torpedoes. And when these torpedoes are destroyed, they release more aluminum foil, turning the entire space into a silvery area.
"The radar can't show the location of the enemy ship!" An officer from the battleship unit said suddenly. I saw that on Mary's control interface, a large spot of light appeared in the originally blank area on the radar, and it was no longer possible to distinguish whether it was a ship, aluminum foil or more torpedoes.
And Li De's offensive did not stop, and waves of torpedoes flew out of the torpedo tubes as if they didn't want money. These torpedoes flew over the foil-covered area and headed for Mary's fleet.
Without having time to think, Mary gave orders to destroyers and frigates. As he moved out of the area at high speed, he fired torpedoes flying in all directions.
If she remained still, Li De would be able to control the ship and hide in the middle of the aluminum foil, and then close the distance between them. Although she was not afraid of those D-class battleships, Mary always felt that Li De was very dangerous and didn't want to entangle more.
However, Mary found that no matter how much she tried to control it, the fleet as a whole was moving too slowly. On the one hand, she had to maintain formation, and on the other hand, she had to maintain the fire output of shields and anti-torpedoes, so that her fleet could not move at full speed.
There was more and more aluminum foil all around, mixed with fragments of torpedoes, and it was covered all over the place. Although it is not difficult to find the target with the naked eye, the large light spots on the radar display make people feel oppressive.
"Blue Alpha!" A loud scream suddenly rang out.
Rumble! Suddenly, while passing through an area of aluminum foil, Mary's main battleship ran into a situation. A D-class frigate appeared in her channel at some point. Mary was only concerned with dealing with torpedoes, but neglected to change the course of the course.
Damage to the part of the tail thruster of the destroyer after being hit. Li De's D-class battleship was able to break through the destroyer's shield defense and then blow up half of the tail several hundred meters long.
"With 45% of the power remaining, the weapon system can use 37% of the energy conversion rate......." The computer quickly gave combat losses. The students who saw it around were also surprised!
Rumble! Another D-class battleship, rammed into the wrecked destroyer. This time it hit the position of the bridge directly.
"The flagship is destroyed, the battle is over." Electronic sounds are heard and echo through the classroom.
And so ended a battle. Mary stared at the virtual screen with wide eyes, her mouth wide open, and she couldn't speak for a long time. Whether it was in the Air Force School or Starfleet before, Mary never thought of such a tactic.
In the past, in military academies, it was taught that it was necessary to reasonably match firepower, and to choose the main battleship with high defense as the flagship to ensure the survivability of the commander. So, in conditions of limited combat effectiveness, Mary chose one lead destroyer and three battleships as escorts. It is also deliberately paired with light fighters to increase the flexibility of combat.
And Li De's D-class battleship was able to pass through the outer guards of the fleet and directly collide with the flagship surrounded by frigates and fighters. In the eyes of true tactical experts, this is simply incredible.
But in the battle just now, the hundred D-class frigates that appeared in Reed made her lose the focus of the attack in an instant. And the limited attack power is impossible to disperse to chase, plus the insidious attack of the aluminum foil used as a cover for the walk. Thinking about it now, Mary still felt that the tactics used by Reed were almost incomprehensible.
"What do you think of this play?" It was a long time before Mary asked.
"Before, when I was on the planet of Seleone, I participated in the war against the Zerg. I discovered that the Zerg have a flying insect that can explode on its own, which is a great blow to our troops. ”
"So you're following the example of the Zerg? It's insane! Mary was shocked when she heard this.
"My fleet is quickly dispersed, and the firing of torpedoes is actually to distract you and confuse you. Get your capital ship moving. Then I was able to take the battleships that were in ambush at the front by surprise. Li De patiently explained to Mary.
"Very good idea. So how did you come up with the idea to remake an interstellar torpedo? And how do you know that installing an energy neutralizer on the bow of a ship can break through the destroyer's energy shield? The old instructor asked. He was also attracted to this battle between Li De and Mary. After all, Mary is known as the genius girl of this year's interstellar warfare, but she didn't expect to lose the first time she found someone to simulate the battle.
"I just gave it a try. I didn't expect it to be successful. Li De said lightly. He couldn't say that this was what James's experience told him.
The instructor's question and Li De's answer made everyone watching the battle exclaim, and even Mary had heard for the first time that energy neutralizing bombs could be used in this way.
The Energy Neutralizer is a counter-shield weapon, which is to fill the warhead with antimatter that can neutralize the energy shield's position, and when the neutralization bomb hits the energy shield, it will consume a large amount of the energy shield's force field, accelerating the consumption of the enemy ship's energy shield. It counts as a conventional weapon. However, the idea of installing tens of thousands of such missile warheads on the bow of a warship and using a D-class warship as a ramming is unheard of, and such tactics are never taught in schools.
Actually, Li De also knows. If he had chosen to play hard-fought with a battleship, he would not have been able to defeat Mary in any case. So he opted for an opportunistic approach.
But if this method is used the second time, it will not work, and he does not know. If Mary's capital ships had not moved, but had relied on defensive artillery to shoot down all the torpedoes, Lid's attack would not have had any effect at all.
"Come on, you're playing with me." Jason walked up. Li De's cousin just now let him know that the tactics that Li De gave to Mary during the exercise were definitely not a line of inspiration for this kid. He has identified Li De as a dangerous person, a dangerous person who threatens to become the first in his grade.
"I'm sorry, I don't like to fight men." Li De directly put it up and refused.
"What? Are you scared? I'm more than a land war with you. You should also be from the Army, right? Jason demanded strongly.
But Li De was unmoved. It's like not seeing Jason on the side, so he called up a video of a classic battle and watched it to himself.
Jason, who had eaten the closed door, did not move, and stared at Li De. All of a sudden, the situation became very deadlocked.
"Alright, all the students are back to their seats." The old instructor came out in time and relieved the situation. Whether he wanted it or not, Jason still had to listen to the instructor. He also hopes to be awarded the title of best cadet without leaving a stain.
"Classmate, have you seen the video of Admiral Mark Keane's battle when he was young? That's why I came up with this tactic. In that year, he also led the base's low-level warships to defeat the fleet of the Puldons. But that battle was even more thrilling. The old instructor said thoughtfully.
"That's, that's." Where have Li De seen any Mark Keane videos, but when the ready-made steps are given, he won't go down.
"It turned out to be grandpa's tactic, huh!" Mary snorted softly, thinking of her grandfather, who was recognized by the Federation as the first person in interstellar warfare. It seems that he is not wronged if he loses, but it is obviously my grandfather, and I don't even know about the battle video, how could he have seen it?
"Well, there's one last hour. Dear students, our task this semester is to complete at least 100 simulated battles. Each time you fight, you can choose an opponent with a similar level to you. Recorded videos of all battles can be recorded automatically with a soldier code. In addition to this, a dissertation is to be completed, requiring "
The afternoon of classes ended quickly. Still ignoring the angry gazes of Jason and Robben, Li De walked to the door of the classroom. But then, he regretted it.
