ACT498: Offensive and defensive imbalance

"What the hell is this!?"

When Zhao Jian saw that the few fat-like alien warships released energy shields that could withstand 15-inch spiral plasma bombs, everyone in the general control room was like him, and they almost stared out their eyeballs. Because the appearance of this thing is really unexpected!

It is common knowledge that conventional Godcore spaceships have their own defensive stance, but this stance can only be attached to the surface of the hull, and cannot continue to expand, let alone cover other ships.

Zhao had tried to get Thor to develop a similar device, but before Thor could produce his own results, their opponents had already applied this ability to actual combat.

What's even more surprising is that this energy shield can not only form a fixed defensive position, but those claws that fly out of it can also put an extra layer of small shields on themselves when passing through the energy shield. These small shields don't seem to be weaker than the big shields, not only immune to the Griffin's 20mm cannons, but also the standard Type I destroyer's 135mm rapid-fire anti-aircraft guns.

The Starburg fleet's once proud attack capability fell into an embarrassing situation of neutralization for a while.

At the same time, not far from the battlefield, a submarine is hiding in a subdimensional rift. Walter, who did not participate in this operation, was peeking at the fierce battle situation here with relish.

"Tsk, the abilities of these 'super shields' are really extraordinary! The only thing I admire about those old guys is this decisiveness that leaves no future troubles. Sure enough, I was right to suppress the information in the first place, otherwise I wouldn't have seen such a wonderful battle. ”

"But master, aren't you afraid that these small actions will be discovered by the elders, and they will also be decisive in killing you?"

"What are you afraid of! As long as this kind of thing doesn't go undetected. ”

Looking at Walter's indifferent virtue, Irma shook her head helplessly.

In order to achieve his own goals, Walter has been hiding information about Zhao Jian and Star Castle from the higher-ups of Broken Dawn, and only recently has he taken out a batch of outdated information and handed it in. But even so. The 12 high-level elders also voted unanimously at the meeting to decide to resort to force to eliminate this "hidden danger".

For the sake of their "faith", these old guys resolutely rejected the temptation from profit.

"And now? What are you going to do next? ”

"Look, that's all. Although the old guys had murderous intentions, they underestimated the strength of that kid. Let them fight each other, and we will only have to reap the benefits of the fishermen...... Oooh! Irma, look, that kid really has the goods in his hand, and the Titan-level defensive coating has been copied by him! ”

On the battlefield at this time, 360 claws were attacking around the 6 capital ships of the Star Fort fleet, and the light and live ammunition rained down, but the "crackling" came down. I was stunned that I didn't give these battleships anything.

The defensive coating that once appeared on the Titan class had been successfully coated by Thor as early as last year, although the production capacity was not very high, and the quality was not as strong as the original because of raw material problems, but at least it gave a layer to all the capital ships that needed to charge, and the ability of the defensive position to resist attacks has been significantly improved.

In addition, Qinghai Tong Guò observed that the small shields on these claws are not infinite, and will gradually weaken over time, and need to be returned to replenish. So Qinghai took advantage of this weakness. Let your carrier-based aircraft avoid engaging the claws carrying the new shield, and instead focus on the guys who are ready to go back to replenish and intercept them halfway.

Using this tactic, Qinghai's carrier-based aircraft group knocked out many claws with failed defensive shields, but also exposed their targets. Some claws that had just been replenished with new shields were slashing in her direction. And the other party's division of troops also greatly reduced the pressure on the capital ships, and Sister Chuan saw an opportunity and shouted to De Flinger on the side.

"Hey, sisters. How about a companion and a shot for him? ”

"To'er! Which one to do first? De Fringer asked succinctly.

"The one on the far left, the old routine. Let's try to bump it first! ”

With Sister Chuan taking the lead, the two most "tiger" ships of the main fleet of Star Fort immediately broke away from the formation and rushed towards the defensive position on the far left side of the enemy. After all, with Star Castle as the backing, everyone does not have the slightest psychological burden on Zhan Shen, and playing with their lives is just like commonplace.

Seeing their actions, the other capital ships did not hesitate to choose to follow, and Kii even deliberately let the two main guns at the front end be loaded with plasma bombs and not fired. If the "savage collision" of the two of them can really break through the other party's energy shield, then she can send a string of "six rings" out as soon as possible!

But when the six capital ships were about to rush forward, the Zhao ship in the rear suddenly shouted to stop this operation.

"Don't bump! Put it up in close quarters, and wait for me to set off the smoke bomb. ”

Under the order of Zhao Jian, the main fleet, which had just raised its speed, had to stop at a position only 1,200 meters from the edge of the enemy's shield with a sharp brake. Even at this distance, their main guns still couldn't penetrate the frosted glass-like wall of energy, which means that the plasma bomb could cause a ripple like a ripple after it hit.

At this time, the sharp-eyed King Kong noticed that on the belly of the demon-level sunken ship in the shield, there were many "strips" that he had not seen before. Because the color of these strips was the same as the hull, they were not discovered during the hasty preliminary reconnaissance, and King Kong also compared them several times before confirming that they were newly added, and his intuition told her that it was a weapon!

"Admiral, this is King Kong, I found suspected heavy weapons on the enemy destroyer."

"Heavy weapons? What does it look like? ”

"It is a long strip, with a length of nearly 50 meters and a diameter of about 3~4 meters, which is a bit like a torpedo."

"Keep an eye on these destroyers, and if they come out, report back to me right away."

King Kong's new discovery gave Zhao Jian a bad feeling. Because these alien warships sent by Broken Dawn this time did not have a type of ship for attacking at first glance, and at this time, a heavy weapon suspected of being a super giant torpedo was finally found on the Demon class, which had been pretending to be low-key, which looked like a "killing move" to deal with preparations.

So Zhao Jian asked the front line to continue to keep an eye on these enemy ships, and at the same time seized the time to explain to Wo-chan the "Trojan horse tactics" he had just thought of. If this method succeeds, they will soon be able to take down these most troublesome enemies at a very small cost! (To be continued......)
