920 The Enemy to the Dead (4)
Midway the galaxy returned to calm, but the effects of the battle continued.
The battle ended with the Atlanteans losing most of their ships and having to withdraw from the reef passage, with the standard of tooth loss and blood swallowing.
The humans occupied the Midway Star, which was equivalent to killing the Atlanteans at their doorstep, and they couldn't swallow this bitter fruit anyway, but their fleet was defeated too quickly, and they found that the humans had mastered the portal technology, so that the Atlanteans now can't figure out how strong the human is in their hands, and they are unwilling to put their limited fleet into infinite wars.
The background of the Atlantis Star Kingdom is definitely much stronger than that of humans, but Atlantis also has many enemies, and the equally powerful Saucer Clan has dragged down a large number of their warships, and the total number of warships that the Atlanteans can draw is not as large as humans imagined.
Without absolute certainty of pulling out the nails on the Midway, the Atlanteans can only tolerate the human fleet continuing to roam their doorstep.
The Atlanteans, who had suffered a lot of losses several times, finally lowered their heads this time and began to study in detail the strategies and tactics of human beings as well as weapons and equipment, especially the light-speed torpedo that made them suffer a big loss.
There are a large number of captured human scientists, and the speed of research is advancing rapidly, but after all, the Atlantis battleship is built on the basis of light technology, and if you want to use human technology to make weapons and equipment, you must greatly transform or even redesign the battleship, and even the official in charge of this matter is not clear when it will be able to form combat effectiveness.
Comparatively speaking, life on the human side is much better, although there is also a certain loss. However, only 8 percent of the total number of battleships participated in the battle, and the total number of officers and men killed was less than 4,000, and there were basically no wounded.
This battle bought valuable time for Midway, and after Xu Shijie added twenty more teleportation ships, the speed of transferring the asteroid belt was more than doubled, and the follow-up teleportation ships continued to send Midway.
It is a pity that the research department has not been able to solve the problem of super alloy recasting, and can only use super alloys by cold cutting or re-forging, so that a large number of super alloys are clearly mastered, but because they cannot be processed deeply, the application range of super alloys is pitifully small.
At present, the main use of super alloy is to use the card slot splicing method to replace the God of War level B with a suspension shield. It is said that this thing is 1.6 times more resistant to decomposing beams than ship composite armor.
When you receive this new batch of levitation shields. Ye Fei couldn't help but think of the giant beast that died on the giant star, if he had the ability of the giant beast's skin to reverse cancel out the laser, maybe he could also block the decomposition beam.
It's a pity that he has been away from Giant Star for too long, and he doesn't even know what happened to the corpse of the stubborn beast now. If only I knew whose hands the hides were. Ye Fei definitely had to get it in his hand and try to see if he could block the decomposition beam.
It's a pity that mechanical civilization is no longer in touch. They've dealt with behemoths a lot, and they may know some of the secrets related to them.
Thinking of this, Ye Fei suddenly realized that cosmic creatures were actually not much worse than the technological race. It is likely that they have evolved some unimaginable abilities over a long period of time, so they must go back to the military department and send a fleet to investigate the distribution of cosmic creatures, and maybe there will be some unexpected gains.
If anyone found the traces of the giant beast now, Ye Fei might throw down the Midway Star and run directly to hunt with the fleet.
At this time, the logistics officer in charge of transporting the levitating shield found Ye Fei, and after saluting, the two sides saluted and said, "Commander Ye, please sign to receive it." ”
"Oh, good!" Ye Fei picked up the pen and was just about to put down the pen, but saw the precise number "two hundred and eighty pieces of suspended shield" written on the text.
Ye Fei frowned: "How come it's two hundred and eighty pieces?" "There are twelve levitation shields per warship, but the average number of levitating shields received is only ten on the head of each battleship, which is still fifty-six.
The logistics officer explained with a smile: "Chief, only change the ordinary suspension shield, and don't change the one with the portal." Ten pieces per battleship, one no more, no less. ”
Ye Fei grinned and signed his name casually: "Levitation shield or mix-and-match?" ”
"There's no way, I heard that all the resources are now tilted towards the teleportation ship, and the production of the light shield has long been stopped, except for your fleet, other fleets are waiting with their eyes." The quartermaster took the handover letter, "Chief, if there is nothing else, I'll go back first." ”
Ye Fei nodded, the two saluted each other again, the quartermaster turned to leave, and it didn't take long for the transport ship to burrow into the open light door of the teleportation ship.
The transport ship is also very interesting, it does not have a large capacity belly like a traditional transport ship, but has eight elongated arc-shaped long arms like an octopus or spider with large eight claws, and the middle is a control system and a strong power system, and many gravitational devices are installed on the long arms that are spread out around the middle, and what needs to be transported is attracted by the force, which is very convenient for loading and unloading.
It is said that when this thing is fully deployed, it will be able to transport eight capital ships at once, and with the latest force field device, it will be no problem to carry cargo for short distances faster than light.
It seems that since Duan Ping invented the tractor in the ship, the shipbuilding style of mankind began to turn from conservative to radical, and many ships that do not have to use closed compartments have gradually given up the cumbersome fully enclosed structure, and turned to lightweight, folding, telescoping and other slightly weird directions, and what makes people feel even more strange is that it has developed quite well.
It's just that transport ships of this structure are generally only used for short-distance transportation within the galaxy, and there are too many variables for long-distance transportation, and no one is bold enough to use the open transport ship to run long distances.
Since the retreat of the Atlanteans, the reconnaissance ship has been guarding the exit of the reef passage, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed, and it seems that it is the end of 2218, and the Atlanteans still have no movement.
At the beginning, Ye Fei was quite nervous, but gradually Ye Fei and his fleet saw that the enemy did not move, and they slowly relaxed, and even began to arrange for the battleship to return to the base star, so that the soldiers who were always on the front line took turns to rest - if the Atlanteans made any move, they had to cross the distance of more than forty light years first, and it would take ten days to say the least, which was enough for Ye Fei to recruit the battleship back from the base star eight hundred times.
The calm lasted until February 2219, when the Atlantean fleet, with only 3,700 warships, finally arrived in the solar system. (To be continued......)
