The alien fleet flew over the Antarctic amidst everyone's worried discussions. It was around the autumnal equinox, the polar night had just ended, and the Antarctic was divided into two parts: night and day.
The fleet stopped over the South Pole, and the clouds in the atmosphere directly below were billowing like waves.
Ye Han asked anxiously: "How many air defense points are there in Antarctica?"
"There must be some, but I don't know how many there are." Qi Haifeng said.
Ye Han felt a chill in his heart: "It's over, it's all over!"
Currently, most of Antarctica is covered by a blizzard, and more than half of the air defense network has been destroyed. Although the anti-aircraft ships on the sea have a shooting angle, the location of the anti-aircraft ships is really too far away.
The actual distance at one latitude is about 111 kilometers, and the ice bank closest to the South Pole is near 78 degrees south latitude. In other words, even if the anti-aircraft ship sails to the coast closest to the South Pole on Earth, it is still more than 1,300 kilometers away from the South Pole.
.
The effective range of the anti-aircraft laser is only more than a thousand kilometers. Even if it is fired flatly, it will not be able to hook the alien fleet.
As he spoke, the altitude of the alien fleet had dropped to 800 kilometers. A beam of light suddenly shot out from the thick clouds, and then dozens of beams of light broke through the clouds from different directions.
However, these beams of light were either seriously divergent or simply missed their target. Even those that hit the target were unable to do anything to the alien battleship.
It is true that the clouds cannot block the beam, but the beam consumes energy when it breaks through the clouds, so that the energy intensity of the beam is greatly reduced. Even if the target enters the range, it cannot do anything to the alien warship.
The futility of the beams fueled the aliens' arrogance. The alien warships that were originally stuck together dispersed as they descended, and soon dispersed in the air.
The air defense net opened fire again, but to no avail.
The anti-aircraft ships on the sea knew that the enemy ships were out of range, but they were unwilling to just let the alien warships in and opened fire along with them.
The enemy ship's altitude dropped rapidly, and it didn't take long for it to reach the outer reaches of the atmosphere.
At this time, there were several dreamy and colorful auroras over the Antarctic. A large group of alien warships plunged into the aurora. Immediately, the bottom of the warships was shrouded in a layer of red light, and the ice-white hulls burned into dark red.
The damage caused by the atmosphere to alien battleships is higher than that of laser cannons!
It's not that countries don't want to drop nuclear bombs, but the nuclear bombs will only blow a hole in the clouds at most, and it is impossible to stop the blizzard. The power of the laser will still be weakened by the blizzard by half, unless all the clouds over the Antarctic can be exploded in one go.
But that is simply impossible. The level that brought the blizzard is only two or three kilometers high. The height is really too low. If a nuclear bomb is air-blasted at such a height, I don’t know whether it can explode the clouds. The air defense positions on the ground must be
Didn't run.
The situation was developing in the worst direction, but Ye Han and others could only watch helplessly.
The two warships near the Antarctic finally opened fire, and the missiles on the ships took off one after another, rushing towards the alien fleet from two directions at the same time.
The alien fleet acted as if they hadn't seen it and continued to descend in its own way. The only response was to release a group of alien fighters.
Ye Han thought that the missiles launched by the warships carried nuclear warheads. It was not until the missiles hit the alien aircraft group that he discovered that all the missiles were the most common anti-aircraft missiles.
Without exception, all the alien fighter planes that were hit fell from the sky. A few missiles also passed through the obstruction of the fleet and hit the battleship. However, without nuclear warheads, the power of the missiles was really poor, leaving only a few scratches on the surface of the battleship.
The eye-catching scorch marks did not affect the battleship's descent at all.
Bian Ge suddenly left his seat, turned around and floated out of the bridge: "I can't stand it anymore."
Long Jianguo also unbuckled his seat belt: "I'm going to see him."
Ye Han nodded. He didn't want to read any more, but he also wanted to know the final result of the airborne landing.
At this moment, two bright lights suddenly exploded over the Antarctic. After the bright lights dissipated, two mushroom clouds slowly rose. Under the mushroom clouds, an alien warship with a small half missing lost control and rolled to the ground.
Several people suddenly became energetic, looking forward to more nuclear bombs to destroy the alien fleet, but let alone nuclear bombs, not even the most ordinary missiles could be seen.
Ye Han's eyes wandered back and forth on the two human warships on the sea, and he always felt as if he had used up all his ammunition.
Qi Haifeng also felt like it. He played back a short video to prove his guess. He also found that the two nuclear bombs came from Chinese warships, while the American warships did not even carry a single nuclear bomb.
Weird? Not at all.
The two major groups, the East and the West, first supported the assault fleet's expedition to Jupiter; then they supported the interception fleet's initiative to attack; and then they tried their best to prepare for the alien fleet's approach.
In order to block the alien fleet, nuclear bombs were basically handed over to the space fleet. Except for intercontinental missiles, there were only a few nuclear bombs left on the ground.
Think about it, in addition to nuclear bombs, the engines of the space fleet need nuclear fuel, battleships, air defense positions, major cities, and the reactors of the space station also need a large amount of nuclear fuel. The earth's reserves would have been exhausted long ago, if it weren't for it
With the moon supporting it, it's hard to say whether the laser cannons of the air defense network can be fired.
The nuclear explosion aroused the aliens' vigilance. The descending warships continued to disperse, the distance between them became farther and farther, and the speed of descent also increased a lot.
Ye Han suddenly discovered something unusual: "Lao Qi, do you think they are deviated? Why are they not at the South Pole?"
"It's not at the South Pole...it's flying towards the coast!" Qi Haifeng exclaimed.
The lower the battleship's height, the further outward its position will be.
"What's going on? They don't want to occupy the Antarctic?" Ye Han's heart was beating wildly. Why was it different from his previous guess? This was so exciting.
Qi Haifeng looked confused: "What's the Antarctic?"
Ye Han told his guess, and Qi Haifeng suddenly realized: "Do you think they know there is land under the ice cap?"
Ye Han was startled and raised his hand to slap his forehead: "Yes, why didn't I think of that?"
The surface of Antarctica is covered with thick ice. It was only after the emergence of satellite remote sensing technology that humans were able to photograph the original appearance of the continent under the ice.
Do aliens have remote sensing satellites? No!
They have no idea what's under the ice sheet, and they probably haven't even thought about it.
If you think about it, if the aliens have been wandering in the universe for such a long time, they must be looking for a more comfortable place.
The environment in Antarctica is indeed much better than that of Ganymede, but there are a lot of better places on earth than Antarctica. It’s not like aliens have no choice. Why do they have to stay in Antarctica where birds don’t shit? Find a more comfortable place.
Isn't it a good place?
Africa is still in the hands of aliens. Even if we can only hide underground, it is much better than freezing in Antarctica, right?
This volume will be finished soon, and the next volume will return to the earth for a period of transition. I have already written about the earth, is it a bit backwards to write it back? I feel really unsure.
