The aliens' decision was too late. The fleeing alien fleet had just dispersed. The leading ship, the Hongwan, had crossed the 1,200-kilometer range limit. Three turrets were powered on and rotated at the same time, and six laser cannons were aimed at the enemy ships at the same time.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and six straight beams of light rushed out of the gun barrel in an instant, shooting directly at the enemy ships in the distance.
The shorter the wavelength of the laser, the stronger the energy carried by the photons. Therefore, the 024 class is equipped with a light-band laser cannon, which is the most powerful laser created by mankind so far.
In theory, gamma-ray lasers with shorter wavelengths are more powerful, but they are still in the laboratory stage and there is still a way to go before they can be weaponized and put into practical use.
The wavelength band of the laser is not within the visible light range, and the light emitted by the cannon cannot be seen by the naked eye. At this time, the advantage of using a built-in bridge appears. The optical instrument on the ship can capture the optical path of the laser and display it on the bridge.
On the screen, it looks no different from the space battleship firing in the movie.
In fact, whether you can see the light path must consider the specific environment you are in. The reason why you can see laser light is because the tiny particles in the air or other media cause the light beam to scatter. There are no air or other media in the universe, even if the laser is
The wavelength is within the visible light range and it is not possible to see it even if you want to see it.
Six laser beams instantly crossed the void of more than a thousand kilometers. Four of the laser beams deviated from the target and only two accurately hit the enemy ship. Yan Jing's face, which had not yet recovered, became even more ugly.
The twin turrets hit two out of six shots, and they used laser cannons. In other words, only one turret hit the target. This hit rate really did not satisfy him.
Others didn't think so. The main screen on the bridge of the Moon Bay was showing the picture captured by the telescope. An ice-white alien spacecraft was shot in the stern. The enemy ship that was hit immediately lost control and a large piece of the stern jumped out.
The light smoke is like a stone smashed into lime powder or plant ash.
Everyone who witnessed this scene widened their eyes and were extremely surprised.
Everyone has often imagined the scene when the enemy ship is hit, and they also think about the scene when our own warship is hit. Whether it explodes, makes no movement, or even ignites a raging fire is not unacceptable, but it is like a big smoker.
What does it mean to blow out a puff of smoke?
Could it be a gas leak inside the enemy ship?
But there is no point in studying this now, and everyone quickly put these useless thoughts aside.
Everyone's impressions of space battles come either from video games or movies and TV shows. No one has ever seen a real space battleship confrontation with their own eyes. It is very stupid to use imagination to measure the facts.
The Hongwan opened fire again, and at the same time, the Dewwan also brought several enemy ships within the effective range. The six turrets opened fire at the same time, twelve laser beams crisscrossed, and four enemy ships were hit one after another, spewing out white smoke.
while losing control.
Yan Jing's face finally looked better.
The pursuit of the expedition fleet caused the alien spacecraft to be hit frequently. The scattered enemy ships suddenly became a mess. Some were eager to escape from the fleet, some hoped to gather together to save their lives, and some flew out of various unpredictable and weird routes.
It looks like a ball of dust moving through Brownian motion.
The current situation is much better than expected before the war. If the artillery fire is fully opened, the expedition fleet will definitely have the strength to destroy all enemy ships in a short time. However, it will lose the effect of confusing the enemy, so Yan Jing thought for a while.
, finally gave up the tempting idea of annihilating all enemy ships and insisted on using only three turrets per ship.
After the Rainbow Bay and the Dew Bay killed more than a dozen alien spacecraft one after another, the Summer Bay and the Moon Bay finally caught up to 1,200 kilometers.
Huang Bo's face glowed with excitement, he stretched his neck and shouted loudly: "Fire the cannon, fire the cannon, fire the cannon, it's time to test us!"
It is one of the glorious traditions of our army to seize credit and tasks. At this time, no commander will humbly give in.
As soon as the bridge officers were busy and unhurried, the three turrets that had been ready to fire opened fire at the same time, and the first round of shooting successfully hit an enemy ship.
But looking at the screen, the enemy ship was actually hit by four beams from different directions at the same time.
Huang Bo was so angry that he flew into a rage: "Fire, keep hitting, hit hard!" After finally grabbing a target, he destroyed it together with other ships.
They are all captains, and they have a bunch of people under their control. Others can grab several targets, but the Yuewan can only grab one. How can Huang Boqing be embarrassed?
The crew members were also suffocating in their hearts. They were all soldiers and expeditionary forces. Who would be willing to fall behind others?
As a result, the firepower of the Yuewan became more and more intensive. Although the three turrets were aimed at different targets and the firing sequence was sequential, the gaps were getting shorter and shorter, almost volleying. Yan Jing was so angry that he cursed his mother. A communication was sent to the Yuewan, and Huang Bo was
After scolding him profusely, he stopped the Yuewan's bad behavior of frantically grabbing targets.
The captain of the Summer Bay secretly rejoiced that he had joined the battle a step too late, otherwise he would definitely have been criticized.
But after the reprimand was over, and all the alien warships were destroyed, Huang Bo counted the number of targets he had grabbed, and immediately showed a proud smile on his face, not caring at all about being severely criticized.
Yan Jing was both angry and in love with Huang Bo for being a rogue. He was angry that this guy turned a deaf ear to his orders, but he loved that there was such a guy who liked to grab credit and tasks, and other people would be embarrassed if they wanted to be lazy.
What kind of army is a good army if it doesn't take credit or tasks? It doesn't even have this sense of honor. It could just go home and sell sweet potatoes.
It only took more than ten seconds from the time the Hongwan opened fire to the time it sank the last enemy ship. Four seconds after the battle ended, the expedition fleet passed through the airspace full of alien spacecraft wreckage at high speed.
The speed of the alien spacecraft was less than one-third of the expedition fleet. Huang Bo stared at the wreckage of the enemy ship on the starboard side and was instantly left far behind by the expedition fleet. He couldn't help but feel a little regret in his heart: "What a pity."
The first mate, like a conscientious compliment, promptly asked: "What's the pity?"
"It's a pity that our speed is too fast." Huang Bo sighed, "It would be great if we could collect some fragments of the alien spacecraft."
Humanity knows very little about alien spacecraft, and even the size and precise shape of the alien spacecraft were obtained just before the war.
If we can obtain some alien spacecraft fragments, we can analyze the defense zone of the alien spacecraft through the material composition, density, hardness and other physical and chemical properties of the fragments, providing important reference data for the subsequent battle.
The first mate was silent for a moment and persuaded: "It's no shame. The main gun can destroy enemy ships at half power. Does it matter what material it is made of?"
Huang Bo smiled slightly: "I hope the alien warships are so good."
