446 First Battle Sea Urchin
On April 18, 2208, the Centaur triad was 0.3 light-years away.
The Aquila was alone in the universe, and the centaur α A and B stars in the stern direction were almost indistinguishable from the countless stars in the sky.
If you look at it from above, the camouflaged reconnaissance ship that was originally attached to the left of the middle of the ship's ridge has disappeared at some point, leaving only a notch that has obviously sunken.
"No news yet?" Ye Fei, who had been waiting for more than two hours, was calm on the surface, but in fact he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Two days ago, Zheng Guo revealed to him the strategy of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, but after careful questioning, he found that Zheng Guo only had this idea, and he had no clue how to implement it.
Although the Yankees and the Russians are eager to fight, their own fleet does have the opportunity to borrow a knife to kill and wait in the rear to wait for work. However, the United States and Russia are not stupid, and Westerners have always only focused on interests and not considering face, and it is not difficult for them to come out, but the possibility of their own fleet staying out of the matter is very low.
Ye Fei felt that it was too risky to pin his hopes on two unreliable friendly forces, so he persuaded Zheng Guo to set up an ambush on the way to reach the enemy first, and in order to prevent a mistake in the early warning system, he also deliberately sent a camouflaged reconnaissance ship to reconnoitre.
Ruan Peng shook his head helplessly after checking the communication records: "There is no movement yet." "The expected arrival of the enemy has passed, but the target has not yet appeared, and every second of waiting is extremely tormenting.
Ye Fei frowned, constantly thinking about whether the camouflage reconnaissance ship had encountered an accident, but he thought about it. Even if the camouflaged reconnaissance ship is discovered by the enemy, it will always be able to run if it can't beat it, and it is impossible that no news will be transmitted back...... He had to continue to endure and wait.
After another ten or so minutes, a voice suddenly came out of the quiet bridge: "Bridge bridge, reconnaissance ship No. 1 called, found space fluctuations caused by faster than the speed of light, please receive data!" ”
"Bridge received!" Ye Fei was overjoyed, and the data received was immediately entered into the ship's computer, and the result was quickly calculated.
"The enemy is still two minutes away from our ship, and the whole ship is ready for battle. Scissors. Prepare for the light-speed torpedo! Ye Fei was as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, rubbing his palms and spinning all over the ground.
"Lightspeed torpedo ready!" Scissors replied neatly, glanced back at Jiang Xue, and Jiang Xue replied to him angrily. "The attitude of the battleship has been adjusted. The bow is facing the enemy's shipping lane! ”
"Good!" Ye Fei's eyes were glued to the time without blinking. When there was only one minute left for the two sides to meet, Ye Fei decisively ordered, "Torpedo fire." Jiang Xue, avoid it immediately! ”
The light-speed torpedo has a navigation device, which can enter the superluminal state according to the pre-set direction and angle, but the flight on the superluminal scale is really a small difference of thousands of miles, as long as the light-speed torpedo adjusts the attitude of the slightest difference, after entering the superluminal speed, there is a danger of missing the target.
In order to increase the probability of hitting, the launch of the battleship hovering on the accurate course of the enemy is the most likely option to hit the enemy ship.
Almost at the same time as Ye Fei's order was given, the light-speed torpedo broke away from the battleship and disappeared in a cloud of colorful light. Immediately, Jiang Xue controlled the battleship to turn quickly, and the engine output high power under the strong power support, and the Aquila immediately overturned several heels in a row like a fighter performing stunts before re-stabilizing the battleship.
Although the posture is not very elegant, this method allows the ship to get out of the enemy's course as quickly as possible. Otherwise, if the light-speed torpedo fails to hit the target, the Aquila on the enemy's route will directly face the impact of the faster-than-light vehicle, and no matter how thick the armor is, it will not be able to withstand the rampage of the bone mound in the faster-than-light state.
The Aquila, which turned the bow, flew away quickly, and after just over ten seconds, violent spatial fluctuations suddenly erupted in the void that could not be seen by the naked eye, and suddenly dozens of sea urchin warships with countless sharp thorns on the surface jumped out of the superluminal state, more than a dozen of them were severely damaged, and half of the most serious one was blown away. But it was still alive, and the sharp spines on its surface moved slowly, and it wasn't long before the spines on the surface of the badly wounded sea urchin battleship regrouped to form a small individual that had been cut in length by more than half.
The other damaged sea urchin warships are similar, all of which are repaired by moving the sharp spines on the surface.
Ye Fei's eyes almost missed the screen, he originally wanted to hit the bone mound, but he actually hit the auxiliary car by mistake, this oolong swing is not small - the spatial fluctuation can only show that a flying machine is flying faster than the speed of light, whether the aircraft is a bone mound or a spaceship is impossible to detect, and it is not a strange thing to put an oolong.
However, what was stunned was the unexpected appearance of the sea urchin warships, and everyone could not have imagined that they were so badly injured, and they actually recovered as if nothing had happened for a while.
At least in terms of recovery, the Sea Urchin Battleship is much stronger than the Exoskeleton Bio Battleship.
"Jiang Xue, get out of contact distance immediately!" Ye Fei yelled.
The Aquila immediately accelerated away, but at this moment, the reconnaissance ship sent back the latest news again, and discovered a new spatial fluctuation!
Ye Fei scolded, what kind of fart remote warning did the speed difference between the bone mound and the sea urchin battleship have one day, and it has only been a few minutes?
The data was entered into the ship's computer, and the new orbit data was formed, although a large group of sea urchin battleships were not far away, Ye Fei still resisted the urge to give the order to flee for his life, and commanded the battleship to block the enemy's path steadily, and when the time was almost up, another light-speed torpedo shot out from under the belly of the ship, and disappeared in the colorful light in a blink of an eye.
The Aquila turned around and ran without looking back, and thirty seconds later, a violent spatial fluctuation erupted again in the void not far from the sea urchin battleship group, and then a bone mound with heavy surface damage appeared.
On the fleeing Aquila, Ye Fei craned his neck and looked back, until he found the bone mound and appeared, he exhaled easily: This time he finally caught the main master.
There is a huge crater blown out by a light-speed torpedo in the direction of the Aquila, Ye Fei instructed Che Qi to enlarge the picture, and at the same time, the optical system measured the diameter of the bone mound, and by the way, the diameter and depth of the crater were also marked.
Ye Fei shook his head helplessly after carefully comparing them.
Although the new lightspeed torpedo can also blow the bone mound out of the faster-than-light state. The crater on the bone mound was not small, but it was more than a step worse than the effect of the previous giant light-speed torpedo, and Ye Fei, who was full of expectations, couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
In fact, it was not that the improved light-speed torpedo was ineffective, but that Ye Fei was accustomed to the exaggerated effect of the old-fashioned light-speed torpedo. To be honest, the power of the old light-speed torpedo is a bit too strong, although the new light-speed torpedo has reduced its power, but it can also force the enemy army in faster-than-light flight out of the faster-than-light state, and the effect is no worse than the old torpedo, so why waste manpower and material resources to make the light-speed torpedo so huge?
Ye Fei didn't plan to clash head-on with the two enemies, and the Aquila fled quickly. Not for a while. The camouflaged reconnaissance ship that had rushed to the front by flying faster than light also joined the main ship and re-docked to its original position.
However, in such a short period of time, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse.
The bone mound that was flying faster than light was unprepared and jumped out of the faster-than-light state when it was hit by a light-speed torpedo, and the outer bone man immediately sent a large number of small fish into the air after a brief loss of consciousness. Patrol around the bone's mound.
Those sea urchin warships that accidentally blocked guns for the bone mound found the biological battleship. Immediately pounced on it like a shark smelling blood. However, the sea urchin battleship did not fly too close, but stopped at the warning distance of the small fish, and the tip of the sharp thorn was aimed at the small fish swimming. Spewed out one thing after another with a speed comparable to that of a cannonball.
The unsuspecting little fish landed and was hit in one piece.
On the magnified screen of the optical system, the cannonball that hit the small fish exploded like a water ball, and the dark green liquid substance quickly corroded the shell of the small fish.
Ye Fei's eyelids jumped, could it be just something like a corrosive ball? But then, something seemed to wriggle in the splashed liquid and burrowed into the corroded hole.
He immediately aimed the optical system at another location that had just been hit by the cell, and sure enough, he found the same phenomenon.
Ye Fei immediately realized that the wriggling thing was the key to the parasitism of the small fish ship.
I'm afraid that the sea urchin battleship is not shooting a "cannonball", but a spine that invades the biological warship!
Mankind really knows too little about the sea urchin warship, this is a rare opportunity, Ye Fei immediately ordered the Aquila to stop and monitor the battle between the two sides from a distance.
The sea urchin battleship's strain has an extremely long range and can accurately hit targets one light second away, while the small fish ship's solidified beam range is too bad to hit the sea urchin battleship that is free from the range, and can only be beaten passively.
I don't know if the scuba contains some kind of ingredient that can anesthetize the small fish ship, Ye Fei noticed that all the small fish that were hit by the strain stopped strangely and floated quietly in place.
Ye Fei noticed this strange situation, and the Outer Bone Man also did not ignore it, perhaps because he had dealt too much with the Sea Urchin Battleship, the Outer Bone Man had long known what the abnormal state of the Dao Xiaoyu Ship represented. Once the small fish ship is hit, other small fish in the vicinity will immediately rush up and tear the small fish infected by the sea urchin scells to pieces, leaving only a small piece of the wreckage of the battleship infected by the spine unattended.
Presumably, the parasitic cell is in the abandoned "meat".
The outer skeleton man did not show weakness, and several groups of small fish immediately attacked from several directions at the same time, faintly surrounding the invincible sea urchin ship group.
The two sides come and go, and each is good at winning.
The Outer Bone Men had an absolute numerical advantage, and although several groups of warships were sent to chase the Sea Urchin Battleship, they were all thrown away by the Sea Urchin Battleship using their speed.
The Sea Urchin Battleship has the advantage of speed and range, although it hits a lot of small fish, but none of the small fish has a chance to transform into a Sea Urchin Battleship, and the two sides are actually unable to hold each other for a while, resulting in a stalemate.
After coming and going, the sea urchin ships seemed to have figured out something, and when another group of biological warships chased over, they did not rush to escape, but slowed down and slowly lured them, until this group of biological warships was disconnected from the large army, and the sea urchin warships shot out a large number of cells in a hurry, directly infecting all the hundreds of biological warships in a group.
Because of the deliberate seduction of the sea urchin battleship, this group of small fish flew too far, so that the outer bone man did not have time to send a support fleet to clear the "infected body", and the sharp spines in the small fish's body broke out one after another.
The newly grown thorns were not very strong for a while, and then they waited for a while before slowly solidifying.
The Outer Skeleton didn't care about losing a few small fish ships, but these small fish turned into sea urchins. You can't help but pay attention to them.
Finding that his side was not the opponent of the sea urchin at all, the outer bone man made the same mistake again, and directly reduced his forces and withdrew all the small fish to the bone mound.
Ye Fei, who was peeking on the side, grinned when he saw this scene, secretly thinking that these outer bone people were really hopeless, no matter which community, the first thing that came to mind when the situation was not good was to be a turtle with a shrunken head, hiding in the bone mound looked like a good way, in fact, it was no different from catching turtles in an urn, just waiting for death.
Hundreds of similar sea urchin warships have successfully developed, and they have flown around the bone mound several times in a flash. Tentatively shot a few cells into the shaft on the bone mound. It's a pity that like sand thrown into the water, even the water can't ripple a little more, and in the end, the sea urchin ship returns in vain.
However, the bone mound showed no signs of moving, and the vain sea urchins were not willing to give up. has been hovering near the bone mound and refuses to leave.
Although it has long been known that the sea urchin battleship is an infected small fish. But this scene still made Ye Fei speechless. He decided to park the Aquila not far away. Let's see what happens on both sides before making plans.
Ye Fei was finally a little mentally prepared, and the others didn't know what was going on with the Dao Sea Urchin, and after seeing all the processes in their eyes. They were all so shocked that they didn't know what to say.
"Boss, what the hell is that?" Scissors was the first to ask.
Ye Fei said in a deep voice: "I don't know what Lu Dao is, so far, I only know that Lu Dao is a kind of parasite, several destroyers of the Third Fleet fought with these strange parasites in Wolf 359, and as a result, all three destroyers sank." ”
The battle situation of the Wolf 359 has not been made public, and everyone can not help but be shocked to hear that three destroyers have been lost.
That's three destroyers, 10,000 men smaller. Since the formation of the expeditionary force, it has not suffered such great losses. How could a destroyer more than a dozen kilometers long be sunk by such a strange thing?
Ye Fei didn't mean to argue with everyone at all, he just stated the situation according to the facts.
Scissors licked his lips: "Boss, what should we do now?" If he has no interests with the sea urchin warship, he doesn't have to ask this sentence, but there are three destroyers who have a big enmity, and there is no reason to let go of the sea urchin.
"Let's block the Outer Bone People here, the fleet of Proxima Centauri will have to rush through if they want to clean up the Outer Bone People, and now it's almost time for them to leave, and they will be there in a few days." Ye Fei Ye Fei touched his chin and said in a deep voice.
The Americans' new warships can reach forty-four times the beam of light, while the Russians' Yenching-class giant ships can only reach forty times the speed of light, and it takes four and a half days to fly from Proxima Centauri to the war zone.
"So just wait?" Scissors said unwillingly.
Ye Fei smacked his lips and looked thoughtful: "Knowing ourselves and knowing that the other side will win all battles, our understanding of sea urchin warships is very limited...... It is not a big problem to engage in firepower reconnaissance, but for the sake of safety, we must not get too close. Che Qi, what is the current distance between us and the enemy? ”
"Real-time distance of seven .4 light seconds."
"It's really not close." Ye Fei sneered, "The range of the sea urchin battleship is not close, but compared to whom, let's stay away from them and try the firepower first!" ”
The Aquila has been in his hands for more than twenty days and has not been opened, Ye Fei is like a child who has gotten a big toy, and he can't wait to know how powerful this battleship that is claimed to be equivalent to a fleet is.
"Roger!" Scissors immediately came to their senses and immediately began to manipulate the main gun, "The main gun is ready for firing-"
"Launch!" Ye Fei ordered.
On the big screen, the doji representing the aiming position of the main gun has been aimed at the five sea urchin warships that have gathered together.
"Launch!" The scissors repeat the command while pressing the launch button.
A total of 11 large reflex laser cannons fired at the same time, and eleven laser beams invisible to the naked eye shot out from all parts of the Aquila at the same time, instantly crossing the distance of 7.4 light-seconds and hitting the same target accurately.
The sea urchins hit by the laser first trembled, and the tissues between the sharp thorns contracted and vaporized under the high temperature of the laser, and they immediately shrank into a ball, and the sharp spines that originally pointed in all directions were all close to the surface of the outer skin, as if this could protect them from being hit by the laser, but the sharp thorns were not shells after all, and these sea urchin ships eventually turned invisible.
The group of sea urchins that were hit by the accident immediately scattered like frightened rabbits, scattered in the air.
Scissors' eyes widened: "Isn't it, this thing can last more than three seconds in a full-power laser?" Even a giant ship may not be able to hold out for so long, okay? ”
"You don't care how long it lasts, anyway, it can't escape a dead word at the end." Ye Fei said hatefully, "Come again, get some interest back for the Third Fleet." ”
"Understood!" This time, the scissors actively reduced the power of the launch, but 80% of the power of the main gun was still not something that the sea urchin ship could resist.
The scissors lowered the power of the main gun again, and named the sea urchin ships one after another, and after a while, the originally small number of sea urchin ships lost a quarter of their members, and the rest of the sea urchins no longer dared to continue to wander near the bone mound, and fled in a swarm.
The scissors wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, and said with palpitations: "This thing is too weird, forty percent of the power can kill in five seconds, and one hundred percent of the power can last for three seconds!" "Eleven improved laser cannons have such an effect, not to mention the old model of the laser cannon on the destroyer, and the firepower is also a lot worse, no wonder it has to be the opponent of the sea urchin.
