When a high-energy proton beam hits the target, if it hits the target nucleus, a series of nuclear reactions will occur, releasing a large amount of energy. Even if it does not hit the nucleus, it will melt the target and produce a huge explosion, which will also occur after the hit.
The secondary magnetic field acts to destroy the target.
Of course, this kind of power cannot be compared with a real large nuclear bomb. The explosion of a nuclear bomb is at least calculated in terms of one hundred thousand tons or one million tons of TNT. But compared with other conventional weapons, this Gauss rifle is infinitely larger.
For example, the charge of a Type 67 wooden handle grenade is only 38 grams of TNT, which may be exaggerated to 50 grams.
Such a shot is equivalent to the power of 400 grenades exploding at the same time! Therefore, the safe shooting distance must be at least two hundred meters, otherwise it may blow yourself up!
"It's great for long-range sniping."
Yu Yifeng stroked the barrel of the gun. You must be careful with such a weapon. You cannot shoot at close range. This must be remembered.
The best thing is that its bullets are extremely fast, almost close to the speed of light. There is no need to calculate the advance or trajectory when aiming. As soon as you fire, it will explode at the designated target immediately, making it impossible to be intercepted!
Yu Yifeng felt very happy after getting this gun. After all, he used to be a soldier and liked this high-performance weapon very much. Most of the people in their special forces shared this sentiment like him.
The other one should belong to sniper Shen Jie, who has the best shooting accuracy.
It's a pity that there is no third one... He has already imagined Zhao Yao and Xu Yunjin's resentful and sour expressions...
When Yu Yifeng came out of Bai Hezi's place, he was holding two modified Gauss rifles in his hands.
Although it weighs thirty kilograms in one hand, which is a bit awkward, as soon as you get off the spacecraft, the gravity is immediately reduced by two-thirds, so this weight is no problem.
This kind of Gauss rifle that sprays high-speed protons actually has certain limitations. Like lasers, it is not suitable for fighting in an atmospheric environment. Because atmospheric molecules will absorb a large amount of bullet energy, it has a certain blocking effect.
Fortunately, the atmosphere of Mars is relatively thin, so it can barely be used.
Yu Yifeng took a deep breath. Their ten-person exploration team will face a huge challenge this time. Because the levels of the two civilizations are quite different...
Scientists have conducted weapons experiments on extraterrestrial materials, and conventional rifle bullets hit them, leaving only a shallow dent. This also means that conventional human weapons are likely to be unable to cause damage to the facilities inside.
However, nuclear bombs can still destroy them... This is something that makes Yu Yifeng feel a little relieved. At least nuclear bombs are still effective.
It is impossible for them to use nuclear bombs to explore flying saucers, they can only use conventional weapons of the 21st century... If a battle really breaks out, it will be like the Polish cavalry during World War II using a machete to chop down tanks, and it will definitely be an unsuspicious failure.
Yu Yifeng and the others originally planned to carry heavy weapons such as howitzers and rocket launchers. No matter what, they wanted to increase their power first. But now with these two alien weapons, they can carry less heavy weapons, which makes it a lot easier.
.
He stroked the Gauss rifle and really wanted to shoot it to test its power, but he endured it. This kind of ammunition is not replenishable. Every shot is missing, and it cannot be wasted!
"We have done two shooting experiments. The initial velocity of the proton is 0.9 times the speed of light, and the acceleration time is about 0.0086 seconds. That is, after the shot is fired, the delay time of the bullet launch is 0.0086 seconds."
"The mass of the proton is very small, so the recoil of the firearm is almost non-existent. If we are given a year or two, we should be able to thoroughly explore the entire firearm structure... By then, we can make our own Gauss rifle."
"Please be careful with it……"
The above are what Yuriko said when she handed the weapon to Yu Yifeng. Yu Yifeng also heard a slight concern, and his heart suddenly warmed.
Naturally, they couldn't wait a year or two like Yuriko said. Even if they did, the scientists would go crazy with anxiety.
Anyway, they are not going to fight, they are just exploring the risks to see what is in the inner ring area. If it doesn't work, they can withdraw.
"...Liuriko, thank you!" Yu Yifeng carried a box in each hand, unable to free his hands, so he could only shrug his shoulders and walked out of the laboratory.
Yuriko sat there in a daze again, and it took her a long time to realize that the person was actually gone. She lowered her head again, immersed in her work.
In fact, she is not as dull as she appears. On the contrary, her thoughts are very flexible, and she is sometimes curious about what kind of person Yu Yifeng, the leader of the new humanity, is.
Yuriko once secretly used "mind reading" on Yi Feng, but... she failed. She only saw a blazing sun, which gave people a very warm feeling.
"Perhaps, superhumans are really different..." she thought secretly.
At this time, Yu Yifeng was in the training room, his brows furrowed tightly. At this time, he got some bad news: when digging the flying saucer, scientists discovered a small amount of energy fluctuations in the large hole.
This kind of fluctuation is specious, and scientists are not sure whether it is a mismeasurement. It may be that they are scaring themselves, or there may be functioning machinery inside.
No matter what, they have to prepare for the worst, as the inner ring area may be dangerous.
At this point, it is impossible for them to give up...
"The departure day will be in two days. If you have anything to do, please finish it as soon as possible in these days. If you have any last words to write, please write them as soon as possible. Do you understand?" Yu Yifeng said to the members of the expedition team.
shouted loudly.
"Understood!"
Everyone answered loudly, each one excited and a little scared.
Of course they were afraid of death, but considering that the leader of the Noah was in the team, how scared they were!
Last words are a tradition in the military and must be written before carrying out high-risk missions. However, these nine team members have no families, so this step is a bit unnecessary. Just say a few words to friends and say goodbye.
about there.
"The distribution of adventure equipment will begin now, so everyone can familiarize themselves with the new equipment in advance!"
This step is also the most exciting for everyone. Which soldier doesn't like new equipment and weapons?
Following Yu Yifeng's order, an equipment vehicle slowly drove over and delivered space suits, medicine, oxygen bottles, ropes, walkie-talkies, and a large number of weapons to all members.
Everyone's equipment is different because everyone has different responsibilities. Some people are in charge of medical treatment, some are in charge of cutting and disassembling, and some are in charge of fire protection.
For example, what Zhao Yao is holding is a rocket launcher. It is thick and thick, and has strong anti-armor capabilities. But such a big thing is still not as powerful as the Gauss rifle of an alien civilization.
Zhao Yao looked at Shen Jie depressedly, with a look of resentment on his face. Well, he didn't expect the Gauss rifle in Yu Yifeng's hand. Why should this lean Shen Jie, just because he aimed accurately?
Although both of them were members of the special forces and had been comrades for several years, Zhao Yao was still unhappy.
This is an alien weapon, he has been looking forward to it for many years!
How could he feel happy now that he couldn't even touch it? He could only say depressedly: "My last words are as follows: If I die, I hope to be buried with a Gauss rifle..."
"Okay, you're the only one with a lot to do!"
Yu Yifeng smiled and scolded: "When we come back, I will let you touch this gun for a few days...and then return it to the laboratory!"
"Really!" Zhao Yao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he remained silent now, for fear that others would have such last words and share his privileges.
Everyone put on their spacesuits and began various trainings.
Their training room is located on Noah, which is equivalent to the low gravity area of Mars. They have already adapted for many days in advance. Now they have to wear the equipment and adapt for the last two days.
