679 Air-ground confrontation (2)
Probably because his own warship happened to be parked over the city, or because the Ares had flown away, or maybe because it was being recharged, in short, the seven holes in the ground did not shoot out the deadly pillar of light again.
The sky over the city of Atlantis, which had just been under fire, seemed to suddenly return to calm, and there was a clear gap in the battlefield, leaving only missiles falling with a white trail.
At this time, the missiles had entered the stratosphere, and there were only about 40 missiles left, and the speed of the descent was still increasing, and the serpentine maneuver trajectory used to avoid enemy artillery fire was almost none.
Suddenly, a dense beam of light shot out of the seemingly calm city, and the dense anti-aircraft fire formed an impenetrable net, enveloping all the dozens of missiles that fell, but in a few seconds, all forty missiles were destroyed by the anti-aircraft fire of the Atlanteans, and the last missile was destroyed at an altitude of seven thousand meters above the ground.
Ye Fei's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light: "It's a little interesting, it seems that there is no hope for missiles." His gaze swept over the city of Atlantis with six triangular warships, which had left the city early to avoid their own anti-aircraft fire.
"What now?" Scissors asked with a sigh of relief.
The enemy ships that had returned to the defense were flying back at full speed, and it was not as simple as just now to lure the enemy ships away.
"What else can I do? Again! Ye Fei's eyes were full of challenges, "Jiang Xue, turn around and fly back, this time try it with a gravity cannon." ”
The speed of the missile is the lowest of all human weapons, and it is also the easiest weapon to intercept. But this is not the case with the replacement of gravity guns, the speed of the cannon is extremely fast, and the speed of falling is far from being comparable to that of missiles, plus the volume of shells is much smaller than that of missiles, and the possibility of being intercepted is almost none!
Whether it is an electromagnetic gun or a gravity gun, the main task is to hit ground targets, and not to fight enemy warships, and shells suitable for the current situation are ready-made.
Moreover, the adaptability of the gravity cannon is stronger than that of the electromagnetic gun, if there is a lack of shells, you can directly get two asteroids back and cut them into a suitable volume to launch them directly. Not picky like an electromagnetic gun.
The only downside is that the Gravity Cannon has a somewhat worse acceleration ability than the Electromagnetic Cannon. But in the face of the advantages of gravity guns, this little difference is completely negligible.
Jiang Xue immediately manipulated the battleship to turn around, and the God of War, which had already flown away from the fourth planet, made a huge arc of one hundred and eighty degrees, and refocused on the city on the ground.
The unusual movement of the Ares immediately attracted the attention of the Atlantean fleet. Six triangular warships over the fourth planet immediately greeted them. Meanwhile. The four triangular battleships that returned to the defense chased the Ass of the Ares at a distance of more than a light second.
"Five seconds!" Jiang Xue said two words without beginning or end, but there was already a tacit understanding between husband and wife, and Scissors understood that she meant that there was only five seconds of attack time!
"Enough!" The scissors immediately lock onto the target on the ground. Without hesitation, the gravity cannon was activated.
The principle of the gravity gun is different from that of the electromagnetic gun, the superconducting coil is no longer necessary to use the inside of the gun body, but the artificial gravity layer is superimposed, and the artificial gravity device is very convenient to start, and it does not need to be charged in advance, so it is faster than the electromagnetic gun when shooting.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen metal balls accelerated by the gravity gun to tens of thousands of kilometers per second flew out of the muzzle and flew to a huge hole in the ground with unmistakable accuracy - the gravity gun can fine-tune the orientation of the fired shells by adjusting the "directional force field" near the muzzle, so the muzzle does not have to be aimed at the target exactly, as long as the bow is roughly aimed at the target.
"Good!" After completing the launch, the scissors applauded loudly, Jiang Xue immediately adjusted the direction of the flight willingly, and there was an interception before the pursuers, and the God of War could not get rid of the encirclement of the enemy ship with only the conventional flight speed, so she simply drove the battleship into a short-distance super-light flight state, and jumped out of the encirclement of the enemy directly.
At the moment when the God of War entered the faster-than-light state, Xia Zhuoyan once again detected the high-energy reaction on the surface of the planet, if Jiang Xue's speed slowed down a little, I am afraid that the God of War would usher in another round of devastating blows.
The Atlantis battleship, which had lost its target, fell into a brief period of confusion, and the dozen or so metal balls burrowed into the atmosphere at this time, and a dozen shells fell as fast as a dozen shining meteors.
The Atlantean fleet didn't care about chasing the Aquila any longer, and turned around and pounced on the planet, as if trying to intercept the cannonballs like interceptor missiles, but before they could fly half the distance, the cannonballs had already entered the stratosphere.
The ten triangular battleships could only helplessly stop the pursuit, avoiding entering the sky above the city and being accidentally injured by their own side.
The anti-aircraft fire network appeared again, but the shells were not missiles, and the difficulty of interception increased geometrically, although the air defense forces of Atlantis tried their best, but only half of the shells were stopped, and eight shells successfully passed through the fire network, but these shells were affected by the atmosphere during the flight, and in the end only three shells successfully hit the target, and two of them hit the same target, and the remaining five shells all deviated from the target and were scattered near the hole.
Powerful flashes of light erupted from the caverns hit by the shells, while the effects of the shells falling in the city were mixed, and a large number of aircraft could be seen rushing to the location of the shells through the optical system.
A few shells that were just metal balls destroyed the Atlantean "star cannon", proving once again the old adage that destruction is easier than construction.
Although only two holes were destroyed, there were enthusiastic cheers in the bridge of the Ares of War, and Ye Fei let out a sigh: "Good fight, come again!" ”
Atlantis' level of technology is far above that of humans, and although their warships don't have the kind of mysterious things like protective shields, who would dare to say that they don't have this kind of technology?
What if the protective equipment is too large or consumes too much energy, and can only be installed on the ground and cannot be moved to a warship?
Although he knew that this possibility was so small that it could be ignored, Ye Fei was still relieved, and his heart did not return to his stomach until the shell hit was the target.
The destruction of the "Star Cannon" touched the nerves of all Atlanteans, and the enemy ships, which had been entangled with the Eagle and the Swift Eagle, returned at full speed.
Taking advantage of the gap between the enemy ship's defense, the Ares repeated its old trick and fired a batch of shells at the interstellar cannon again, and in order to ensure the effectiveness of the strike, the scissors fired more than 50 shells at once, an average of 10 cannons per cannon.
The Atlantean battleship fired interceptor beams like crazy, but the shells were inconspicuous until they entered the atmosphere, and the interception of the blind cat like a dead mouse was fruitless, and it was not until the shells entered the atmosphere that they showed their hideous faces.
