XIII. The Battle of Xuanwu (6)
The result was very tragic, the vanguard of the Heavenly Tiger Army, the Fifth Fleet of the Second Group Army, was ambushed by the Yanhuang Clan, and after a round of artillery fire, the two million warships of the whole fleet were bombarded by the Yanhuang Clan's artillery fire before they could jump out of space, except for a very small number of battleships that escaped successfully, the other warships were sunk. Wreckage is scattered throughout the space.
The coalition forces cleaned up the battlefield very happily, handed over all the wreckage of the battleship to put away, and handed over a small part to the Academy of Sciences for research, and threw the rest into the liquefied metal layer of the fortress, so that the assimilation formation of the metal layer assimilated all the wreckage and became a part of the liquid metal layer, so that the liquid metal layer can be thickened a little, although it is not much, but it adds up to a lot.
The Fifth Fleet was almost completely annihilated, and almost all the troops of the Fifth Front were mad, when had they ever suffered such a big defeat? They knew from the mouths of those soldiers who had escaped that the enemy was ambushing at the exit of the space jump, but they were all speechless. When is the weakest time for a battleship? It is the moment when it jumps out of space, if it is attacked at this time, the space collapses, no matter how powerful the battleship is, it can only be a dead end.
Therefore, the Tianhu Army also learned to be obedient, and sent small troops to jump out from farther places, first set up a cordon, and then the large troops began to jump in space, and it was not until September 20 that the Fifth Front Army all arrived at the place 20 million kilometers in front of the Xuanwu fortress group and began to set up camp.
Before the Xuanwu Fortress Group, the nearest planet was also hundreds of light-years away, and at such a distance, of course, the Heavenly Tiger Army had no way to go to the planet to build a base, so they could only camp in the universe. The so-called camping is to build some defensive lines, build some batteries, and a large number of radar stations to prevent enemy troops from sneaking up and give the soldiers a place where they can fully rest. The best thing is to use all kinds of armor plates to enclose the space, but there are too many materials needed, and the Fifth Front Army does not have so many materials, so it can only set up camps in a conventional way, lay multiple cordons, and build a large number of artillery batteries and radars.
The Tiger Fury led a group of generals to carefully observe the fortresses of the Yanhuang Clan, these fortresses were too small compared to the fortresses of the Heavenly Tiger Empire, and it could even be said that such fortresses were even much smaller than a cosmic-level warship, but this was indeed a fortress, not a battleship. The entrance to the wormhole is just behind the fortress group, and it is impossible to enter the wormhole without destroying the enemy's fortress group.
"It seems that the enemy's home planet is in the back of the wormhole, so it's no wonder they're defending here," said Bigutchon. "What sector does this wormhole lead to, and do we have any information about it?" the tiger asked furiously. "There is no information on this at all, but we are trying to find a way to hack into the enemy's chain of command and see if we can get some information from it. "The chief of staff of the staff of this work has already arranged for the intelligence department to work early in the morning.
A general said: "Your Excellency Chief of Staff, have we deciphered each other's language?" "Basically, there is not much problem with the language, but the language of the other side is very difficult to understand, and once some languages are combined, they are completely incomprehensible, and they are the most difficult language we have ever encountered. β
To tell the truth in the language of the Yanhuang people, it is not difficult to learn it at all, it is not difficult to understand the meaning of a word, and it is easy to understand ordinary words, but once you encounter those idioms, it will be troublesome, there is no way to understand the idioms of the Yanhuang people, and there are quite a lot of historical events in the knowledge of the Yanhuang people, especially some idioms that are more difficult to understand, sometimes, the meaning of the word and the extended meaning are completely opposite, so it has caused great difficulties to the decipherment work of the Tianhu Army.
"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, what kind of race is our opponent?" "Our opponent is not one race, it is a coalition of multiple races, however, they are called the Yanhuang Clan, and the others are called the Elf Clan, the Wu Clan, the Light Clan, The dark clan and the orc clan, their strength is not weak, each of them has a strong individual combat ability, according to their calculation method, our clone soldiers' strength reaches level nine when they do not have any equipment, and their strength reaches level fifteen when they have a full set of equipment, and each of them has a single combat ability of level sixteen, and the strong ones among them have reached level eighteen and nineteen, in comparison, our individual combat ability is far behind. β
"Then is their strength stronger or the winged actress is stronger?" It is the strength of the Winged Female Clan, from some of their information, we know that the strongest warrior in the Winged Female Clan can reach the strength of level twenty-four, and the warriors who exceed level twenty-four cannot participate in the war, of course, there are also some people in the Winged Female Clan whose strength is below the sixteenth level, but in terms of overall strength, the Winged Female Clan is still much stronger than them, however, the Yanhuang Clan has already had a group of elites who have entered the Winged Female Clan, and fought with us with the Winged Female Clan, it seems that they have formed an alliance. Your Excellency the Iron Armor General of the Tempest is correct in his guess, it is precisely because these people from the Yanhuang Clan have joined the Winged Girl Star that the strength of the Winged Girl Clan has increased greatly. β
Bigu Texiong explained in more detail the information obtained by the Heavenly Tiger Army, although these information is not important information, but it has given the Heavenly Tiger Army enough understanding, for the coalition led by the Yanhuang Clan, they definitely have no contemptuous opinion, after all these years of fighting, they already have a relatively deep understanding of the strength of the Yanhuang Clan.
"We are going to face a very cunning opponent, they not only have strong individual combat capabilities, but also have a lot of special abilities that we don't understand, for example, they can use some antique weapons, and they can also exert a power greater than our battleship's main guns, they have a stealth technique, which can make all our radars and detectors useless, etc., we must be extremely careful when fighting against such an opponent, and if we are not careful, we will suffer." β
Fortress, is strong defense to perverted, synonymous with strong firepower, the Tiger Army has been fighting for so long, and they have so many fortresses, of course they understand what a fortress is, although these fortresses look like a small point, not at all like a fortress, but a fortress is a fortress after all, since it is a fortress, you can't attack blindly, the firepower of the fortress is not vegetarian, if you are not careful, you will suffer heavy losses, so, the tiger fury ordered the army to rest for a few days, waiting for his order.
The rest of the army was able to rest, but it was impossible for the personnel of the Ministry of Intelligence and Science to rest, and instead they had to work overtime to study the enemy in front of them. The people of the Ministry of Science used all kinds of detection methods to probe the fortress, look at the structure of the fortress, and analyze all the information.
"The surface of the fortress is a liquid metal layer, their liquid metal layer is more special, from the atomic arrangement of the liquid metal, it is not a single metal structure, but a special alloy structure, with a density of eighteen tons per cubic meter, very heavy, which hinders the detection of radar, so that we can not detect the bottom of the metal layer, we can only detect a depth of three kilometers. β
"The nature of liquid metals is very special, with very strong stability, even if it is a strong energy impact, it can only turn them from liquid into gas, however, the reduction is very strong, the metal that turns into gas should become liquid at a temperature below 3,500 degrees, to solidify them into a solid requires a temperature of minus 272 degrees, it can be said that it is the most stable liquid we have encountered so far, we can't use heat energy to evaporate them, nor can we use coagulation bombs to turn them into solids, so that our main guns can hardly hurt the fortress itselfγ β
"We put the metal detector into the metal layer of the fortress, and as a result, we made an amazing discovery, the metal detector was melted in a very short period of time, and turned into the same liquid metal as the liquid metal layer, and we deduced that this is the unique technology of the Yanhuang clan, which can assimilate other metals into the same liquid metal. β
"The properties of liquid metals have been studied by the Imperial Academy of Sciences, although their properties have not yet been fully understood, however, some of the properties have been discovered, these liquid metals have a strong resistance to strikes, if we calculate according to our property determination results, if the thickness of the liquid metal layer reaches five kilometers, it will be able to defend against the attack of the star-field class main gun, if the thickness reaches twenty kilometers, it will be able to resist the attack of the star-class main gun, therefore, the low-level warships of our army have not attacked the fortress itself at all, only the main guns of the Star-class battleships can break through the liquid metal layer and attack the fortress itselfγ Considering the armor of the fortress and all unknown factors, it is estimated that the main guns of the Starriver-class battleships will not be able to cause great damage to the fortress. In order to damage the fortress itself, the power of the attack must exceed that of the galaxy-class main gun. β
"Since we can't detect the bottom of the fortress, we know the firepower of the fortress at all, and to figure out the firepower of the fortress, we need a one-time tentative attack. However, it is estimated that the casualties will be large and can only be taken as a suggestion. β
"The enemy's radar interference is very strong, and their stealth skills are also widely used in the fortress, therefore, our army's radar detection is difficult to lock, although their position is not moving, but, because the size of the fortress is too small, if our army wants to attack and hit, it must be close to the front of the fortress three million kilometers, so close to the distance, the power of our army's main artillery attack by the fortress will increase, and the casualties will also increase. β
I have to say that the Heavenly Tiger Army is still very combat-effective, and the parameters of various fortresses have soon been placed in front of the tiger's fury. After reading this, the Tiger Fury said, "Order all the troops to hold a military meeting to discuss how to capture the enemy's fortress." β
The generals who came to the meeting had a report on the fortress in front of them. After the generals read the report in front of them, the faces of all the generals were not very good-looking. These hellish fortresses are really hard to deal with.
"You have also seen that although the enemy's fortress is not large, the defense is very amazing, the firepower is unknown, and it is relatively powerful, even if our army has an absolute advantage in numbers, but it is also very difficult to break through such a fortress, and everyone can say what they think about breaking through the enemy's fortress. "As chief of staff, Bigutchon presided over this military meeting.
