The reaction of the observation team was not surprising at all. Huo Qiang had expected this situation.
The combined fleet is composed of the Beiyuezhou Fleet and the International Fleet. The main force of the fleet is the Beiyuezhou Fleet, plus a small number of Western warships; while the reserve fleet is mainly composed of Western warships, plus a certain number of super gunboats.
This situation occurred not only for the convenience of command, but also as a political compromise between Beijing and Washington.
Huo Qiang's plan requires the reserve fleet and the Second Turkish Foreign Fleet to work hard. Instead of waiting for the order to be issued and then being questioned by the observation group, it is better to seek the opinion of the observation group in advance.
One observer immediately questioned: "Why?"
Huo Qiang immediately stated his thoughts and inferences. After finishing speaking, he glanced at the time: "We don't have much time. Please decide as soon as possible."
The observers immediately started talking among themselves, some with tangled expressions, some with heavy expressions, and some with expressions of indignation.
Nine of the twelve observers were dissatisfied with Huo Qiang's decision, and the remaining three were not much better. Everyone's opinions were very unified, and they all felt that Huo Qiang was suspected of using aliens to weaken the international fleet.
However, Huo Qiang's reasons were very sufficient, and there were no obvious flaws in the strategic deployment and specific tactics.
In the end, it was still a vote by show of hands. As a result, there were six arms each for those in favor and against, and the resolution was passed half to half. Huo Qiang had no right to interfere with the voting of the observation group, nor did he have the right to vote, but in order to avoid delaying the war effort, he voted in the observation group.
When there is no result, Huo Qiang's opinion can also be counted as a vote.
Washington's idea is very practical. Since it is not conducive to the international fleet, but six people still agree with it, this controversial proposal must be necessary.
Seeing the voting results, all members of the observation team looked at Huo Qiang, and Huo Qiang let out a sigh of relief: "Thank you!"
One observer said expressionlessly: "You're welcome, we're here for the planet."
"For the earth!" Huo Qiang said solemnly, "Wu Han!"
"arrive!"
"Order the reserve fleet. No matter what method they use, they must hold back the enemy's second fleet!"
"yes!"
"Also...tell me about Taizu's sixteen-character policy." Huo Qiang finally added.
It's a pity that the commander of the reserve fleet is a Yankee. If it were one of our own people, there would be no need to say this.
Wu Han's cheeks twitched, but he still agreed.
The sixteen-character policy is no longer a secret, and it’s okay to let Wai Guoren know it—but the power of this thing is that you clearly know what’s going on, but you just can’t think of an effective countermeasure!
After receiving the order, the reserve fleet immediately adjusted its direction and launched long-range missiles at the enemy immediately. Next came the super shotgun time. Shells flew from the muzzles of the human warships at a speed of nineteen kilometers per second.
The Second Turkish Fleet 20,000 kilometers away.
The distance is really too far. It takes a full seventeen and a half minutes for the electromagnetic artillery shell to encounter the enemy. In the past, the density of the steel ball was already extremely low by the time it flew 20,000 kilometers away. The possibility of hitting an enemy ship was infinitely close to
zero.
However, like other human weapons, super shotguns are constantly being improved. The super shotguns used today draw on the technology of the Hidden Sword missile. When it comes out of the barrel, it is a complete shell, and then it explodes when it is close to the target.
Once it is done, it can limit the excessive dispersion of steel balls and greatly improve the hit rate of super shotguns.
In addition, the fleet can also control the dispersion area by controlling the detonation time. If the enemies are concentrated, the detonation will be slower, and if the enemies are dispersed, the detonation will be earlier, thereby increasing the hit rate of the super shotgun.
In addition to missiles and super shotguns, smoke screens are also indispensable. In this way, a large wave of missile shells flew towards the Second Turkish Foreign Fleet.
The aliens believe that they have a considerable understanding of human beings, and they also know that humans can launch attacks from tens of thousands of kilometers away, but they know better that the effect of attacks launched at this distance is very limited, so they do not care about the actions of the reserve fleet.
But they soon discovered something was wrong. Humanity's long-range strikes in the past were all missiles launched in groups. Why are there even artillery shells launched today?
But what the heck? The aliens had no intention of resisting it forcefully. Taking advantage of the first wave of human firepower that was still far away, the 582 warships of the Second Turkish Foreign Fleet quickly dispersed. Not only did the distance quickly widen, the entire fleet also
It is divided into three different levels: front, middle and back, each level has nearly 200 battleships.
Moreover, the alien warships dispersed while releasing insect drones, and soon a large insect cloud was formed.
Both the reserve fleet and the joint command headquarters made calculations. The former concluded that there were more than 200,000 insect drones in total, while the latter concluded that it was more accurate, about 240,000, and it was still increasing.
This data may seem exaggerated, but if you break it down, each alien warship only needs to carry four hundred insect drones - this is definitely not the limit of alien warships!
Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about the alien fleet. The first time they released more than 400,000 insect drones, and more than 200,000 more have just been released. Taken together, each alien warship carries no less than a thousand insect drones.
This may not be all, but even if there are a thousand insect machines per ship, the alien fleet carries 1.2 million insect drones. Just thinking about it is really scary. If there are no weapons to deal with the insect swarms, the alien fleet will
The bug machine brought was able to defeat the combined fleet several times and even turn corners.
Huo Qiang was extremely lucky that the expeditionary force had not yet reached Jupiter when the Turkish Foreign Fleet set off. Otherwise, the super neutron bomb would have been exposed, and the Turkish Foreign Fleet would probably have delayed its departure. When the Turkish Foreign Fleet set off again, the killer weapon would not be the insect drone.
, when the time comes, humans won’t have any targeted weapons, haha, the final result may not necessarily be what it is.
Of course, I don’t know what the final result will be, but I can always be prepared.
After the insect planes flew away from the mothership, they immediately rushed towards the reserve fleet in the distance. They were extremely numerous and very fast. They did not look like a group of insects, but rather like countless missiles flying towards the target.
Well, those original bug machines can also emit thin light, but the round-headed bug machines are different. This thing can only hit, it seems that the main purpose of aliens creating this thing is to hit.
The reserve fleet did not dare to neglect and immediately fired a batch of missiles... The first batch was mainly used to deal with alien warships, and this batch was used to deal with insect drones.
The missile was launched at a slow speed, but after speeding up, it was very fast. It only took seven minutes to encounter the oncoming insect cloud. In order to prevent the missile from being shot down by the insect swarm, the reserve fleet had to detonate smoke bombs in advance, and the smoke screen obscured the missile.
, blocking the view of the insect machine.
But the insect machine didn't hesitate at all and crashed directly into the smoke screen.
