These two enemy ships are definitely not space carriers, but they carry alien warships. They may be a new attempt by aliens to use space tactics.
The alien fighter planes immediately flew away from the battleship after taking off, surrounded the alien battleship irregularly, and pounced viciously on the Leishan.
There are not many enemy planes, but they are still a big threat to Leishan.
Even though he lost the first move, Ye Han was not in a hurry. He calmly ordered all departments to prepare for battle, and then stared at the distance data in the corner of the screen.
Having distance means having security, but if you want to attack the enemy, you must close the distance.
Eight hundred kilometers!
As soon as this number came into view, Ye Han's eyes immediately widened: "Laser cannon, free fire, hit me hard!"
As soon as the order was given, the laser turret on the Leishan opened fire immediately. The laser beams instantly crossed a distance of hundreds of kilometers. Some passed between the alien fighters, and some did not touch the edge of the group of aircraft at all. In short, not a single beam hit.
This seems to be an ending that shouldn't happen. How could a laser flying at the speed of light deviate from its target?
The actual situation is of course not that simple. The current situation is that a high-speed moving warship hits a high-speed moving target. The movement speed of both sides is not slow, and the relative speed is even more amazing. Even a laser cannon can hardly hit the target at this distance.
Ye Han gave the order to fire now, not to kill or injure many enemy planes, but purely to disperse the enemy planes and prevent them from getting together to form an attack wave.
The Leishan is equipped with numerous anti-aircraft weapons, ranging from anti-aircraft guns to anti-aircraft missiles. Coupled with the armor layer of the battleship itself, the threat from alien fighters to the Leishan is very small. A single fighter plane poses almost no threat.
But it's hard to say for a wave of enemy planes. A dozen or even dozens of enemy planes rush at each other to cooperate and cover each other. It's hard to say how many enemy planes the Leishan's air defense network can block.
Moreover, the Leishan is not without its weaknesses. The most obvious weakness is the propeller. This thing will be scrapped after just one shot, which directly affects the mobility of the Leishan.
Moreover, the Leishan's propeller uses a lot of alien technology, and the damage control team on the ship has no ability to repair the propeller. If it is damaged, it can only be replaced and repaired back to Beiyuezhou.
In order to ensure the safety of the thrusters, Ye Han must disperse the enemy aircraft fleet in advance to prevent enemy aircraft from attacking in groups.
Of course, according to Ye Han's calculations, even if all the enemy planes pounced on them at once, there would only be a small chance of breaking through the air defense network and not threatening the safety of the battleship.
But having said that, once an enemy plane approaches, even if it does not break through the air defense network, the possibility of damaging the propeller is not small. How can Ye Han dare not be cautious?
Just as Ye Han planned, the enemy planes suddenly dispersed, flying up and down like headless flies, and made various maneuvers to create a slide.
This result surprised Ye Han very much.
Since none of the lasers hit, why did the alien fighters disperse?
The human eye cannot see the laser at all, but the light path can be seen on the screen because the lens uses special optical glass.
The alien reacted so quickly, maybe there is something special about the alien's eyes.
Thinking of this, Ye Han did not forget to write down this matter, and prepared to write a report after the battle, so that the superiors could study the eyes of alien creatures, which might also promote the development of optical equipment.
After disrupting the enemy's aircraft fleet, it was natural that the enemy ships could not remain idle. While the laser cannon was crossing the void, Ye Han ordered again: "Aim the electromagnetic gun for me. I will use conventional shells for the time being. When will I be sure?
Then change to small mushrooms.”
The electromagnetic gun immediately began to charge, and a few seconds later, the first shell flew out of the gun barrel... Unfortunately, the shell missed.
Although the most advanced fire control equipment and the most accurate ballistic calculations were used, the distance between the two sides was simply too far.
Moreover, after the alien fighter jet exploded, the alien warship also became vigilant and flew as irregularly as the fighter jet. No matter how advanced the fire control system is, it is impossible to hit the target purely by calculation in this situation, unless it is blind luck.
Mongolian.
The Leishan was the first to open fire, and the alien battleship did not show any weakness. Knowing that the Leishan had not yet entered the range, it still fired brazenly at the Leishan... As a result, of course, not a single hair was hit.
The situation at this time is very similar to the giant cannon bombardment in the battleship era. Both sides are moving at high speed and firing with all their strength. What matters is who can hit the enemy ship first.
It is actually not accurate to say this, because both the enemy and ourselves are very lacking in decisive weapons. The problem with the Leishan is that the hit rate is not high when the distance is too long, and the aliens simply do not have them.
If Ye Han fights the damage to the Leishan and charges directly with the alien battleship, no matter the missile or the artillery shell, there will always be one that can hit the enemy ship and give the enemy a fatal blow.
It's just that Ye Han doesn't want to fight the enemy with Leishan.
The distance between the two sides continued to shorten, and when there were only more than 400 kilometers left, the first hit finally occurred - a laser was originally aimed at the enemy aircraft, but it did not want to accidentally hit the enemy ship after deviating from the target!
Unfortunately, the power of the laser cannon is too low, and the alien warship that was hit by a laser would have no trouble.
At this moment, countless people on board the Leishan sighed. What made everyone even more confused was why they could not wait for the order to launch the missile!
No matter which time we face enemy ships, missiles are one of the protagonists on the battlefield. In some battles, they can even be said to be the absolute main force, and have achieved extremely brilliant results.
When the two armies are fighting, the most important thing is how to eliminate the enemy. What is the situation like even though they are equipped with a large number of missiles, but they are reluctant to use any of them?
Ye Han naturally has other plans for this. It's not that he doesn't want to use missiles, but he feels that the distance is still a bit far. Now, using missiles is purely based on quantity to increase the hit rate.
The Thunder Mountain went deep alone, without supplies or reinforcements. The aliens' military strength near Ceres was still a mystery. It was better to save a little while it could be saved.
Three hundred kilometers!
The hit rate of both sides increased at the same time. Leishan shot down three enemy aircraft in a row, and several lasers hit enemy ships one after another.
However, the Thunder Mountain was also hit by a few small rays of light.
The time has come, and Ye Han quickly issued a new order: "Laser cannons continue to fire, all artillery can fire freely, electromagnetic guns stop firing, nuclear shells are loaded and on standby, all close-in defense guns are ready for battle, No. 2 missile nest covers the launch, five
Missile Nest No. 1 to No. 4, launch!"
Nest No. 2 contains smoke bombs, which have performed well in previous battles and are now one of the indispensable standard preparations for the fleet.
As for Nest No. 5, it is equipped with seven-section sub-guided warheads. There are ordinary armor-piercing warheads and special warheads equipped with nuclear warheads. Which one to shoot depends on Ye Han's decision.
