If we talk about the combat effectiveness of a single spaceship, Xiao Yu's spaceship cannot defeat the opponent with the same tonnage. However, under Xiao Yu's super control and excellent teamwork, the gap in this area has been greatly narrowed.
As a result, the opponent had superior firepower and with the help of primary energy weapons, it only suffered a miserable victory in the war with Xiao Yu.
In fact, even laser cannons fall within the scope of energy weapons in a broad sense, but the opponent's energy weapons have surpassed laser cannons and are energy weapons in the true sense.
As we all know, photons have no rest mass, so they can reach the speed of light. However, at the same time, because they have no rest mass, their lethality is also severely limited.
Laser cannons only rely on high-temperature burning as a means of killing. They are only suitable for precise strikes and are not suitable for facing large targets.
According to Xiao Yu's speculation, the energy weapon of this alien civilization does not use pure energy beams similar to lasers, but uses some special materials. This type of material with extremely small mass carries a large amount of instability.
Because of its extremely small mass, it can be accelerated to a speed of up to 90,000 kilometers per second. Because of the large amount of energy it carries, it has high speed and powerful lethality.
In the current war situation, this type of energy weapon is undoubtedly the most suitable and perfect. Kinetic energy weapons, laser weapons and even nuclear bombs can barely resist with strong armor. As for energy weapons, after the development of protective
Before the advent of shield technology, it was unthinkable to defend.
Judging from the fact that only the largest flagship is equipped with energy weapons, Xiao Yu can be sure that this alien civilization is only in the preliminary stage of research on such weapons. Otherwise, they would have loaded all spaceships with such weapons.
At that point, Xiao Yu had no other choice but to wait for death.
The powerful lethality of the initial energy weapon made Xiao Yu determined to kill the opponent's flagship. In order to snipe the opponent's flagship, Xiao Yu was willing to pay the price of a county-level spaceship.
"How can I snipe down the opponent's heavily protected flagship when I am at a disadvantage?" Xiao Yu began to think about this problem and began to control the central computer to make a lot of calculations.
"The only feasible way is to concentrate the superior firepower in the area, attack with all strength, and annihilate it. However, how to create superior firepower in the area when the overall firepower is at a disadvantage? Oh, it is really troublesome." Xiao
Yu sighed and deduced.
Three days later.
"Perhaps, this method can be tried." Xiao Yu thought and began intense preparations.
It took Xiao Yu ten days to repair the damaged spaceship. During this time, Xiao Yu not only repaired the battleship, but also performed another task.
That is to manufacture a large number of empty-shell spacecraft. The so-called empty-shell spacecraft is a spacecraft with only one shell, a simple calculation module and a simple power module. This kind of spaceship has no other functions except that it looks exactly like a village-level spacecraft.
, has no attack power, does not carry any ammunition, and has extremely weak defense. It can even be penetrated by just one bullet.
Xiao Yu has built more than a hundred of this kind of empty-shell spaceship. Because it is just a shell, the raw materials consumed by this kind of spaceship are very limited. In fact, if the volume is not taken into account, Xiao Yu will not be able to fit any more.
I even want to build a thousand of them.
After all the preparations were completed, Xiao Yu loaded all the empty spaceships into the Yuanhang, led the fleet, and flew towards the alien planet again.
"It's time to launch the second battle." Xiao Yu thought, "It's time to launch the sniper flagship plan."
Xiao Yu's actions immediately received a response. Hundreds of spaceships took off from alien planets or from shipyards in planet-synchronous orbit, and headed towards Xiao Yu.
When they were hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from each other, the flagship Sun and the Yuanhang, which carried a large number of empty-shell spaceships, stopped with 170 village-level and township-level spacecraft as rear, and the remaining more than 400 spacecraft
, all were thrown into the battlefield by Xiao Yu.
The other side invested more than 260 spaceships, including the largest flagship and a battleship equivalent to Xiao Yu's county-level spaceship. Xiao Yu probably stayed on the planet to defend the remaining one.
This phenomenon made Xiao Yu slightly worried. But now that the plan has reached this point, it is no longer possible to give up.
Still following the old routine, Xiao Yu successively launched giant flash bombs, high-speed bullets, micro-missiles, and micro-satellites, purchasing a dragnet on the battlefield.
However, this time the opponent seemed to have gained experience. The torrent of bullets and micro-missiles did not cause much damage to the opponent. A total of twenty of their spaceships were destroyed by Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu's side, on the other hand, lost in the first wave of confrontation.
Six village-level spaceships.
The two sides quickly fell into a fight, and violent bursts of fire bloomed in space from time to time. Each spark represented the complete destruction of a spacecraft.
On Xiao Yu's side, the largest spaceship is the Tianyuan. On the other side, it is a flagship equipped with preliminary energy weapons. In comparison, the Tianyuan and the other side's flagship are one level lower in terms of volume, tonnage and firepower.
The opponent's flagship was majestic in the battlefield, and almost every shot of the energy cannon could kill one of Xiao Yu's village-level spaceships. Fortunately, each shot required a long preparation time, so Xiao Yu's fleet did not collapse.
Xiao Yu watched all this silently and counted the time silently.
"That's almost it. Let's start the sniper flagship plan."
Xiao Yu gave the order to set off.
Immediately, more than a hundred spacecraft separated from the escorting spacecraft. They formed a formation led by the Yuanhang and began to move in another direction.
This direction is the direction of the alien planet.
That's right, a move from the ancient Chinese art of war to surround Wei and save Zhao.
After dedicating a part of the spaceships to attack the opponent's planet, Xiao Yu only has about fifty escort spacecraft left. If the opponent launches a surprise attack at this time, as long as one more county-level spacecraft comes, plus a hundred small spaceships, there will be hundreds of them.
There is an 80/80 chance of killing Xiao Yu.
But since Xiao Yu dares to take such a risk, he naturally has his own reasons. Thousands of micro-satellites scattered in space can provide Xiao Yu with sufficient warning time. If there is an accident, Xiao Yu can naturally handle it.
Xiao Yu knows that his actions must be closely monitored by the other party. But this is what Xiao Yu wants. If the other party ignores Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu's plan will not be able to proceed.
This planet is about five million kilometers away from Xiao Yu. Based on the maneuverability of the spacecraft, it can reach the destination in more than three hours. At this distance, the communication between Xiao Yu and these spacecrafts is delayed.
, will also reach a terrifying ten seconds. In other words, even if these spacecraft arrive at their destination, they will basically have no combat effectiveness. If the communication delay is too long, these spacecraft will be easily killed.
However, Xiao Yu's original intention was not here, so he naturally didn't care whether these spaceships had attack power.
Xiao Yu has made an estimate, which is about the space combat power of enemy civilization.
First of all, at the beginning, the opponent refused to choose a space battle, but relied on the planet to fight Xiao Yu.
Secondly, when Xiao Yu forced the opponent to engage in a space battle, the number of spacecraft they sent was more than 500. When the battle with Xiao Yu entered a stalemate, they did not send new reinforcements.
what does that mean?
Xiao Yu believes that these more than 500 spaceships are likely to account for most of the opponent's space combat power, or even as much as 80 to 90%.
In other words, there may be less than a hundred battleships left on the opponent's planet. When facing Xiao Yu's fleet, they will have to rely on less than a hundred spacecraft and orbital weapons to fight.
But don't forget, this battlefield will be in low-Earth orbit, Xiao Yu still has nuclear bombs, and Xiao Yu has also prepared some special gifts for them...
It is said that the only way to attack the enemy is to save them. After Xiao Yu comes up with the surprise prepared for them, Xiao Yu is sure that the opponent will draw strength from the frontal battlefield and go back for reinforcements.
And how much power will be transferred away? Xiao Yu did a lot of calculations and believed that the other party would transfer the county-level spacecraft and some small spacecraft, and its flagship-level spacecraft would stay here. Because only in this way, they
Only in this way can we continue to ensure the advantage of the frontal battlefield, and at the same time, we will have sufficient strength to face Xiao Yu's assault fleet.
This is the most reasonable and safest tactic, and there is no reason for them not to choose this option.
"I hope everything is as I deduced." Xiao Yu thought silently, nervously watching the other party's movements.
Facing this formation of interstellar battleships heading straight for the opponent's planet, the enemy spacecraft did not react at all on the frontal battlefield.
More than an hour has passed, and the battle is heating up in the frontal battlefield.
"Well, the other party must think that the county-level spacecraft left on the planet and the various weapons deployed in orbit are enough to stop my fleet... In this case, I will give you a surprise."
Xiao Yu issued an order. Immediately after the order was issued, the cabin door of the Yuanhang opened, and village-level spaceships flew out one after another! There were as many as a hundred!
They are empty shells, they have no combat effectiveness, but... the enemy doesn't know that!
Xiao Yu wanted to know how they would feel when they discovered that they suddenly had more than a hundred spaceships, and the total fleet strength reached two hundred spaceships.
According to Xiao Yu's past strength, more than two hundred spaceships are enough to suppress more than a hundred alien spacecraft. After all, there is no flagship or energy cannon here. This is their base camp.
Then, return support should be inevitable!
Xiao Yu noticed that in the frontal battlefield, enemy spacecraft made mistakes one after another, and Xiao Yu took the opportunity to kill five spacecrafts.
"You're shocked, aren't you? You're confused, aren't you? Then hurry up and come back for help, fools!" Xiao Yu yelled out of frustration.
