More than ten minutes later, the super shotguns from the Jizhou fleet collided with the oncoming alien fleet.
The impact was extremely sudden and lasted extremely short. The entire alien fleet was defenseless, and almost all the alien warships were hit by several steel balls.
Huo Qiang thought that after smashing so many steel balls, he would at least be able to see sparks shooting out during the impact. But what happened in reality? The steel balls should have hit him a long time ago, but he didn't see any signs that could prove the impact. Alien
The fleet just continued to move forward in silence.
Now Huo Qiang couldn't sit still: "What's going on? This is too much. Did we hit it?"
Chief of Staff Wu Han said: "There is no way that shotguns will fail. I think aliens should have figured out how to deal with shotguns."
Zhuang Bo finally spoke: "What method did they use?"
"I can't guess this." Wu Han said, "We use solid cigarettes. Maybe aliens have come up with similar methods. Who knows what aliens do?"
"That's quite the truth." Huo Qiang sighed, "Forget it, let's load up the missiles."
Huo Qiang's tone was relaxed, but that was not the case to everyone's ears. The captains immediately passed on the order, and each ship immediately removed the super shotguns and replaced them with nuclear bombs.
However, an accident occurred again. The Jizhou fleet was not ready yet, and the alien fleet rushing towards them suddenly dispersed. At first glance, it seemed that they were trying to use the ring tactic to deal with the Nanzhou fleet, but after a closer look, they found something was wrong.
This time the enemy ships did not spread in a limited manner, but flew away in several directions.
Wu Han immediately said: "Commander, the situation is not right, the enemy seems to have given up!"
"What?" Huo Qiang frowned deeply, "Is it possible that they want to go around?"
"Very likely."
"Then don't wait, there's no need to be polite to rude guests." Huo Qiang said.
After the aliens bypassed the Jizhou fleet, they must have continued flying to Ceres. Even if they couldn't stop the enemy, they couldn't let them bypass it so easily.
A few seconds later, the electromagnetic guns on the thirty-three battleships of the three battle groups opened fire at the same time, pouring firepower on the enemy at the speed of forty-eight nuclear missiles in each wave, and each target was hit four to five times in a row.
Nuclear bombs, when do you finish one round and when do you change the target?
After several consecutive waves, the Jizhou fleet stopped shooting.
At this time, the distance between the two sides was still more than 10,000 kilometers. A captain took the initiative to ask for help: "Commander, I request to turn to pursuit!"
"And me!"
"Commander, send me!"
The captains stepped forward one after another, as if not asking for a fight would leave a negative impression on Huo Qiang.
Huo Qiang waved his hand: "Don't worry, we will talk later."
After about five minutes, the missile met the enemy group.
The alien fleet discovered the nuclear bomb in advance. They first turned around, aimed at the missile head-on, and then intercepted it with all their strength. When they really couldn't stop it, they started to take off the vest again. The nuclear bombs exploded one after another, and the bright light briefly illuminated the dark space, and then quickly disappeared.
not see.
Because the enemy troops dispersed in advance, the explosions that bit the enemy ships were also very scattered, scattered east and west, and the intervals between explosions were relatively long. The visual effects of the explosions were far inferior to the counterattack of the Nanzhou fleet group.
Moreover, the Nanzhou fleet was engaged in a fierce battle with the enemy. The enemy could not use that much firepower to intercept the missiles. The distance between the two sides was too far at the moment, so the enemy's interception was unusually calm. The aliens blocked more than half of the wave of missiles, which confused everyone.
I was very depressed, but I had no means of countermeasures.
Ye Han couldn't help but sigh, all the new armor and new weapons are useless, the safest defense method is distance!
The nuclear missiles were not effective, and the captains could not sit still and requested pursuit.
Huo Qiang didn't hesitate at all, he shook his head and refused: "No, have you got any brains? What's our speed, what's the enemy's speed, by the time you turn back, the enemy will have already defeated Ceres!"
The captains all stopped talking like eggplants beaten by frost and accepted the training honestly.
Huo Qiang didn't say much. After saying a few words, he stopped: "How is the Nanzhou Fleet Group?"
Wu Han quickly replied: "We are still destroying the remaining enemies."
Huo Qiang frowned: "How long will it take?"
Wu Han said: "According to the current progress, it will take another three to five hours."
"It's too long." Huo Qiang said, "Order the Nanzhou fleet to leave a few warships to hold back the remaining enemies, and the main force will pursue them immediately!
"Okay, I'll convey it right away," Wu Han said.
The captains looked at each other, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Huo Qiang and Wu Han, but the two of them acted like nothing happened and ignored everyone's surprised looks.
Gao Kai almost collapsed on the spot when he received this order. The situation of the Nanzhou fleet had already been reported. The Jizhou clearly knew the situation, so why did he issue such an unreasonable order?
It is often said in the military that reasonable orders are training, and unreasonable orders are training. But no matter how hard you train, it doesn't work like this, right?
Did the commander not see the report?
Thinking of this, Gao Kai immediately contacted Jizhou and asked to speak directly to Huo Qiang.
The current distance between the two parties is only a few hundred thousand kilometers, and the communication delay is just over one second, which is definitely within the acceptable range.
After receiving the request, Huo Qiang changed a virtual room to meet with Gao Kai alone. Gao Kai explained the situation of the Nanzhou fleet and finally concluded: "Commander, it's not that there are many problems, it is indeed that the fleet's situation does not allow it.
, not a single intact battleship could be found, and a lot of them were seriously injured. Even if they caught up, they were no match for the enemy.
Huo Qiang listened without saying a word, and after a moment of silence he asked, "Is there something wrong with the thruster?"
"No!"
"Is there something wrong with the power?"
"No!"
"Where's the electromagnetic gun?"
"The three doors are broken."
"How many more missiles are there?"
"Two out of three!"
Huo Qiang raised his eyebrows: "Then what are you afraid of?"
Gao Kai was speechless and speechless.
"Execute it. The fleet will set off immediately. The battleships will be slowly repaired on the road. There are plenty of spare parts in the transport ship." Huo Qiang said.
This voyage was prepared for a long-term battle from the beginning. The transport ship contained not only soldiers and equipment, but also a large number of battleship spare parts.
Although the effect of self-repair is not as good as returning to the factory, but far away in the asteroid belt, returning to the factory is a luxurious fantasy. What can be solved by oneself must be solved by oneself.
Fortunately, the acceleration of the warship is not high, so as long as safety measures are taken, there is not much risk in repairing it outside the ship.
Gao Kai really wanted to fight for it again, but Huo Qiang's attitude said everything. No matter how many reasons he had in his heart, he couldn't stop Huo Qiang from saying military orders like a mountain. There was no other way. He could only grit his teeth and agree, then saluted and cut off.
communication.
Huo Qiang silently looked at the place where Gao Kai disappeared, and returned to the virtual command headquarters after a while.
