Close combat is indeed one of the tactical traditions of our army. Not only the infantry likes to fight from close range, but even the artillery has the tradition of attaching bayonets to cannons.
The problem is that the biggest advantage of a super cannon is its range. Is it necessary to use a bayonet?
How did Ye Han know that Duan Zhiyang was also depressed at this time? He was clearly within range, but why couldn't he blast?
Did the enemy ship make some improvements to the super cannon, or is there something wrong with the gun itself at Base No. 3?
He really wanted to rush out, take apart the super cannon and check it carefully, but the alien fleet was about to arrive. It was useless to think of anything at this time. He could only put down his worries, grit his teeth and continue to fire.
So Ye Han saw the fourth, fifth and more firings on the screen.
And not only the super cannon kept firing, but the human warships parked near the base also joined the battle in advance. The missiles formed a group, ranging from a dozen to dozens. Each group of missiles corresponded to a group of enemy ships.
Probably because they did not want to weaken the power of the super cannon, and because the enemy ship's arms were not long enough, the human side did not fire smoke bombs, otherwise Ye Han would not have been able to see clearly what was happening on the battlefield.
Every time the super cannon fires, He Lu will immediately report the distance between the two sides. From the initial range of 9,000 kilometers, to more than 8,000 kilometers, and more than 7,000 kilometers, the super cannon still failed to destroy any enemy ship.
Ye Han was almost numb. He didn't know how many times he fired. Before the light beam dissipated, he heard He Lu's excited roar: "Destroyed, destroyed, six thousand four hundred kilometers!"
Although it only destroyed one enemy ship, it was great news for everyone... The destruction distance was a little closer, but it was still more than 6,000 kilometers. Even if one shot only destroyed one enemy ship, it would still be a big loss.
Being able to kill several more ships is much better than having no effect all the time.
Ye Han let out a long breath: "Damn, finally..."
Before he finished speaking, He Lu's pupils suddenly tightened: "Captain, there's something going on!"
Ye Han kept his eyes fixed on the screen. Before He Lu finished speaking, he saw the changes on the screen.
The super cannon failed to vaporize the enemy ship, but the high temperature burned the enemy ship beyond recognition, making it significantly smaller in size. No matter what kind of warship it was, if it received such a shot, it would at least be severely damaged and withdraw from the battle.
However, the enemy ship's charred shell cracked without warning, and the cracks opened wider and wider, as if something was trying to push out from inside the enemy ship.
After just a few seconds, the charred hull split into two like an airbag that had been stabbed. A large group of insect drones flew out of the ship, vibrating their elytra and pounced towards Base Three.
Ye Han couldn't believe his eyes. Are you kidding? This is okay? Is this an alien aircraft carrier?
The reason for making this judgment was that the unlucky alien warship was all ice-white and had a smooth surface, unlike the insect ship encountered by the Leishan, which was green and black in color and had sub-healthy ugly bumps all over its body.
Base No. 3 also discovered the anomaly here, and the super cannon that was about to be launched immediately adjusted its direction and aimed at the insect plane that had just taken off.
The beam of light suddenly traversed the screen, sweeping across the swarm of flying insect aircraft. All insect aircraft enveloped by the laser were instantly vaporized.
Ye Han visually estimated that one-third of the insect drones were killed with just one shot.
The remaining insect machines dispersed in a hurry, and it became a luxury to hope to achieve the same results again.
Ye Han was so anxious that he used a super cannon to kill mosquitoes. Isn't that a cannon to kill mosquitoes?
But if you think about it carefully, it’s not surprising. The insect planes are different from the previous alien fighters, and Duan Zhiyang knows the power of the aircraft carrier, so there is nothing wrong with killing the insect planes first.
Duan Zhiyang probably realized this, so the super cannon no longer chased the insect aircraft, but changed its target without hesitation and continued to fire at the enemy ships.
After that, every time an enemy ship was hit, a group of insect machines emerged. The alien fleet rushed more than 3,000 kilometers. A total of seven warships were hit by the super cannon, which turned into seven clouds of insect machines. Each one
The leader of the regiment said there were two to three hundred of them.
More than 2,000 insect drones were swarming towards Base No. 3, which would make people's scalp numb and frightened. If you have trypophobia, you would be even more frightened.
At this time, there were less than 3,000 kilometers left between the alien fleet and Base No. 3. The long-range missiles were already close to the enemy ships, and the super cannon could completely change its target and focus on destroying the insect drones.
However, Duan Zhiyang still insisted on shooting at the enemy ships, and only brought some insect drones with him when moving the light beam. As a result, there were more and more insect drones.
Duan Zhiyang had his own reasons for insisting on this. Although there were many insect machines, the aliens lacked the means to make a final decision. Even if a group of insect machines pounced on them, they would not be able to cause much damage.
But the alien battleship is different. No matter which one collides, whether the battleship or the No. 3 base, at least one will be seriously injured. If it is slightly more serious, the ship will be destroyed and everyone will be killed.
Let me ask, which goal has higher priority?
The missile swarm finally flew in front of the target. A group of female fish suddenly exploded, and a large group of swimming fish happily jumped towards the enemy ship... To be precise, only some of them jumped towards the enemy ship, and most of them locked on the enemy ship as soon as they dispersed.
The insect machine crashed into it.
The alien warships and insect drones launched counterattacks at the same time. The fine light and mercerized light together formed a huge net, trapping missiles layer by layer. Only a few swimming fish missiles hit the target.
The Hidden Sword missile has slightly better results. As long as it locks on to the target, it will hit nine out of ten times. However, the power of the conventional warhead is too small to destroy enemy ships. Instead, it kills many insect drones.
"Two thousand kilometers away——"
When He Lu shouted these words, the confrontation between the two sides was already very fierce, but the battle was limited to missiles and anti-missiles. Only super cannons were not missiles.
At this time, an unexpected scene happened. The hull of a good alien battleship cracked without any warning, and then a group of insect drones fluttered out of the shell.
It was like a signal. The other alien battleships split apart one after another. In the blink of an eye, there were dozens of swarms of insect drones in the sky. The number of alien battleships dropped offline, and in the end there were only a dozen or so left.
Ye Han was dumbfounded. What the hell, a large group of alien battleships, but only about ten of them were real, and the rest were all fake insect machines!
What do the aliens want to do? Do they think they can defeat the human fleet with just insect drones?
Facing the swarm of insect drones, all human warships opened fire with all their strength, and countless missiles flew away from the warships and rushed towards the overwhelming army of insect drones.
At this time, the super cannon also had a new change. Duan Zhiyang gave an order, and the super cannons that were originally bunched in a line suddenly dispersed and fired. The thick laser column suddenly spread out and turned into a huge flower of light beams.
Dozens of beams of light traversed the void, coming and going freely among the insect clouds in the sky. Wherever the beam of light passed through, the insect drones vaporized one after another. It was impossible to count how many insect drones were killed.
