Chapter 226 Novice Commander (Happy National Day)
"Please note that at the current speed, the battle is expected to begin in 10 minutes."
Ah Dai reported the information concisely to Liu Shengzhan in the command ship, and then continued to fall into silence.
In order to train this unit, Ah Dai would not actively intervene in the command system during this battle. He did not even enter the strategic data link system.
Liu Shengzhan nodded slightly and then said, "Order, all ships in formation shut down their engines immediately, turn around within 30 seconds, and use inertia to continue moving forward."
His mind was very clear. Even without Ah Dai's help in providing the next step of thinking, years of battlefield drills had already engraved all of this in his mind.
In space, at Liu Shengzhan's command, thousands of spaceships suddenly turned off their power engines, and then began to turn around as a whole.
Soon, the entire fleet of tens of thousands of ships had completed the turnaround.
5 minute later.
Against the backdrop of the dark universe in the distance, a spot of light appeared in Liu Shengzhan's sight.
Soon, as the distance got closer, the light spot spread out into densely packed stars.
The expedition fleet of Hans civilization!
In the center of this fleet, a large spaceship with a size of more than 50 kilometers is surrounded by a group of battleships.
"2000 battleships and nearly cruisers! Level alert!"
On the flagship aircraft carrier of the Hans civilization, the commander with a square head stared with wide eyes at the information fed back by the host scanner.
Is this crazy?
The amount of liquid metallic hydrogen required to deploy such a large fleet is extremely huge.
Of course, this is not the most important thing.
In the theoretical knowledge of the systematic combat education he received, battleships were synonymous with firepower.
Generally speaking, battleships do not have an advantage in maneuverability due to their huge size.
This is because if various turrets want to unleash greater power, they must have a large platform to support the system equipment they need.
This is one of the reasons why battleships are so huge.
Of course, this thing isn't cheap.
In addition, the various equipment that goes with it is also a considerable expense.
This is also the reason why the Hans civilization only sent out 500 battleships, but thousands of small cruisers and even smaller destroyers.
Sometimes, the weapon systems of these battleships can even be equivalent to the price of a destroyer.
Add to that the power system, armor repair equipment, and so on, and the cost of equipping a battleship is no less than the battleship hull itself, and may even be more.
And now, there are nearly 2000 ships of this high-value battlefield murderous aura in front of their fleet.
The option of head-on combat was abandoned by the commander at the first opportunity.
Not an opponent at all.
Although their fleet has a small aircraft carrier flagship, and although the small aircraft carrier has many high-speed space carrier-based aircraft carrying heavy missiles, the other side has nearly 10,000 small cruiser-level ships responsible for air defense.
There is no way to fight.
"All fleet members, listen up. Shift your course upwards by 25 degrees. In one minute, overload your afterburner engines. Remember, stop immediately after the overload reaches the upper limit of 1%."
A new word emerges: overload!
That is, pushing the equipment to its limit under certain conditions, which of course will greatly damage the life of the equipment.
After the device reaches 100%, it becomes ineffective.
In front of Liu Shengzhan, the course of the Hans civilization fleet began to change, and then the overall speed suddenly increased significantly.
"What's going on?" He murmured. The situation happened too suddenly. If they had continued at this speed, the enemy fleet would have been within their firing range in two minutes. However, the enemy suddenly accelerated and turned, causing the two sides to cross each other at the critical range for engagement.
But this time, he gave the order without waiting for Ah Dai to explain.
"The heading shifts upward by 30 degrees, and the thrust increases to a maximum of 100%. This lasts for one minute, then it immediately returns to 50% and continues to operate."
The spaceship pilots of the Qingluan Legion were obviously very professional. The moment Liu Shengzhan gave the order, the tail flames of the nuclear fusion engines lit up at the rear of the entire fleet, and then they flew neatly in space, heading towards the front and top of the fleet, drawing a graceful arc in the dark space.
"The structure is online at 50%, 51%, 52%, 53..."
Ah Dai's voice promptly rang in Liu Shengzhan's ears, but he was not in a hurry. He continued to look calmly at the fleet of the Hans civilization that was getting closer and closer in front of him.
In front of them, they could vaguely see this fleet painted in gray, and all of their ships had extremely obvious characteristics.
That is, on both sides of the ship, there are several gun muzzles with a caliber of approximately several meters in diameter!
Liu Shengzhan's eyes looked somewhat solemn.
A turret of this caliber is generally unlikely to be a kinetic energy turret such as an electromagnetic gun.
On the contrary, to Liu Shengzhan, these gun muzzles looked more like missile launch holes.
A few seconds later, Liu Shengzhan's guess was confirmed.
On the flagship of the Hans civilization's small aircraft carrier, the commander stared at the corresponding distances between the two methods on the display screen.
Next to it, a data panel records the overload status of the thrust engines of each ship in the fleet.
Soon, 1 minute passed.
"Stop overloading, and move forward at normal limit thrust. All battleships, aim at the pirates behind you, and open fire immediately!"
The commander gritted his teeth and gave the order resentfully. Although the situation was extremely serious at the moment, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Dare to pursue so boldly a fleet equipped with heavy cruise missiles.
It was obvious that the commander of the fox pirate group behind was a novice commander on the battlefield.
When engaging in space warfare, a fleet of ships equipped with missile firepower fears pursuit the most.
Because the missile has limited speed, in many cases it may not even be able to catch up with an overloaded, madly accelerating spacecraft.
But on the contrary, in a pursuit battle, missile firepower spacecraft is the most powerful type of ship for fire suppression.
This is because when the enemy is chasing them at high speed, they do not need to consider the key factor of speed when firing missiles to the rear.
To exaggerate a little, as long as the missile stays in place and waits for the opponent to hit the door and explode, it can have a significant impact on the pursuers behind.
Soon, his idea was confirmed.
When the Punisher fleet's structural limit reached 56%, the heavy missiles fired from the opponent followed closely.
Liu Shengzhan's face flashed with realization, and then he said urgently: "All spacecraft shut down their engines and prepare for collision prevention. Young Dragon, immediately intercept the missiles ahead!"
As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of heavy attack missiles with a diameter of nearly ten meters arrived in front of him.
At the Qingluan Legion, a violent explosion ball of light suddenly erupted silently!
I wish you all a happy holiday and drive safely
Drive away from trucks. I had a car accident on the highway the day before yesterday. A car was crushed between two trucks.
Remember to overtake a truck quickly and don’t follow too closely.
