The missile was about to hit the enemy ship, and the critical moment was coming. Ye Han and his soldiers couldn't take their eyes away, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the screen.
Seeing that the enemy ship was about to be submerged by dark clouds, a flash of light suddenly erupted from under the alien's bow. The frequency of the flash was astonishingly fast, flashing at least three times per second.
After the missile is covered by the smoke screen, humans cannot see where the missile is. The position of the missile must be displayed on the screen through cross-positioning of the signals sent back by the missile.
After the flash of light on the alien battleship appeared, the missile quickly extinguished like a candle in the strong wind, and the smoke screen enveloped the alien fleet in an instant, but the enemy ships immediately broke through the smoke screen, and not a single enemy ship was destroyed by the missile!
The Third Fleet exploded immediately. It was impossible for more than 40 missiles to fail at the same time. How did the enemy destroy the missiles?
If you cannot figure out the enemy's methods, there is no need to continue the battle, and you must withdraw from the battle immediately.
Although the expedition fleet only has a few warships, both warships and personnel are the military's most valuable assets. It is better to wait than to fight an uncertain battle.
The flagship immediately called up the previous battle records and slowed down the images recorded by the high-speed camera frame by frame. Finally, it was discovered that there was not a flash of light below the enemy ship, but the flames of a cannon fire!
In-depth analysis revealed that this type of cannon fired not cannonballs, but grapeshot similar to those used in the sailing battleship era, but no matter what kind of bullets, it definitely used the principle of artillery.
The analysts reported the results, and the entire fleet headquarters fell into silence for an instant. Everyone was dumbfounded as if they had been hit by a immobilization spell.
Ling Yu's face sank to the point of dripping water: "Chief of Staff, where did the aliens get the naval guns? Do you have any information on this?"
Wang Tianyu immediately replied: "Commander, the fleet has not received any information in this regard, and it has never been mentioned in the international fleet's notification."
Ling Yu's face became even more ugly: "You can still tolerate the bully!"
Wang Tianyu said: "Both our warships and the international fleet have fallen into the hands of aliens. It is strange that the aliens do not study our weapons and equipment. And I heard that there were traitors during the first Battle of Jupiter. I guess
The aliens already have naval guns."
The principles of artillery are not complicated at all, but are on the contrary so simple that even a middle school student who has a little knowledge of the principles of weapons can explain it lucidly.
Although humans do not yet have a deep understanding of aliens, aliens are obviously also a technological race. It is hard to say whether they can build missiles, but cannons and the like are certainly no problem.
Ling Yu nodded: "So what if they have cannons? Can we still fight this battle? No matter how fast they learn, can they still compare with our technology that has been developed for hundreds of years? In this way, the analysis results will be reported to everyone immediately
Ship, let everyone know the situation, so that the soldiers will not have random thoughts."
"yes!"
"Also, don't we have new weapons? If you continue to smash them at me, I won't believe that we can't deal with him!"
"Yes!" Wang Tianyu immediately conveyed the order.
Ye Han was speechless after receiving the report. The aliens actually started playing with cannons?
This discovery filled his heart with strange emotions. The more we knew about aliens, the weirder they became.
Ye Han had always thought that aliens had already entered the era of energy weapons and that cannons were outdated weapons that aliens had long eliminated. However, judging from today's situation, this was obviously not the case.
But the aliens will never transcend the era of thermal weapons and directly transition from cold weapons to energy weapons? Or is there a gap in the aliens' technology and they have completely forgotten all the thermal weapons that have ever appeared?
The battle between the two sides did not stop. While Ye Han was filled with confused thoughts, the Third Fleet continued to retreat. The two warships on both sides of the queue each fired a wave of missiles at the alien fleet, with the number reaching more than 80 missiles.
At the same time, the main guns of each ship began to fire rapidly. Each round was a salvo of hundreds of naval guns. The shells were fired one after another, quickly passing through the missile group and heading straight towards the enemy ships regardless of their own safety.
The alien fleet showed no sign of weakness, and the dense thin light was like a huge light broom, sweeping through the empty space again and again, cutting everything in front of it.
Ye Han discovered that the number of fine lights emitted by these alien battleships was far greater than before. If the firepower of alien battleships in the past was like a stream, then the firepower of enemy ships now is like a river. It must be the aliens who have increased the number of transmitters on the battleships.
!
In the past, alien warships had sparse firepower, and the firepower intensity of a single ship was difficult to compare with human warships. However, this was not because aliens did not have the technology in this area, but because they did not have the need to increase their firepower.
The right one is the best. The aliens have no need to increase the firepower density, so they will not waste resources by installing more launchers on a battleship.
Humans have the exact opposite idea. They all like to pile up firepower on battleships. First and second time when the Jupiter battleships were launched, the instantaneous firepower of a human battleship was stronger than that of a dozen alien battleships. The aliens did not miss this.
shortcomings.
It was probably because they suffered too many losses. In order to even out the firepower gap, the aliens had to increase the number of launchers. Ye Han suddenly understood why the international fleet had been unable to deal with Io... It wasn't that our army didn't work hard, but the enemy was too cunning!
The aliens changed their inherent ideas, but caused a lot of trouble to the Third Fleet. The dense thin lights were like layers of gratings blocking the front of the fleet. The closer they got to the enemy ship, the closer the distance between the light beams became, and they flew quickly.
The cannonballs inevitably hit the grating and were either cut open or cut in half.
However, the thin light is just a beam of energy. The artillery shells fired by the Third Fleet include both slender armor-piercing shells and thick round high-explosive shells. The former will continue to fly in the original direction after being chopped up by the thin light. At most, it will penetrate
The effect of the armor is slightly worse. The latter is immediately split into two halves after being cut by the thin light. Although it cannot explode, the direction and speed remain unchanged.
The alien fleet blocked the shells while maneuvering to avoid them. Their reaction speed was very fast, and very few shells hit the target.
However, the Third Fleet was still outside the effective range of the thin light, and the alien fleet was beaten but could not take action, which made the aliens who took the initiative to attack extremely frustrated.
After finally getting rid of the incoming artillery shells, a large wave of missiles followed. Before they could fly into the range of the thin light, half of the missiles suddenly exploded.
The explosion did not self-destruct, but released the bullet inside. The exploded missile was divided into seven, and the more than 80 missiles instantly turned into more than 300 missiles, swarming towards the alien fleet like a swarm of chaotic wild bees.
Not only that, the dispersed sub-missiles accelerated one after another, S-shaped, spiral, irregular, and various terminal maneuvers were performed one after another. The dense thin light chased the flying missiles, but only a few missiles were actually hit by the thin light.
