Chapter 476 Moths to the fire [4000 words, thanks to the Silver League of the CLV orange boss! 】
Even the high-ranking officials of the empire never imagined that just after the trial period of the final battle had passed and the Compound Eyes revealed a new trump card, and the extremely difficult fighting period was about to begin, the carriers who were supposed to disperse into a sky full of stars as planned actually went against the current.
Come.
If they escape, they may live for a few more years, or live until the end of their lives.
Most porters have not received professional military training, and even veterans are too old to handle weapons of war at high intensity.
Moreover, as a civilian and industrial ship, the carrier's weapon system is already outdated, and the ship's acceleration performance is also extremely poor.
Although the base of the carrier fleet is large, it really has little combat effectiveness, and it will not be of much help if it comes.
The higher-ups of the empire would rather these people become the last utopia of human civilization and live one more day in the galaxy as a space wandering race.
As long as there is still one person alive, it means that humankind has not been completely extinct.
But they disobeyed orders and came back.
Without hesitation.
Soon, the top human beings learned from the charging roar of the captain of the transporter ship No. 37415 what prompted them to leave and return.
Before the ship was torn apart by the eight-legged beetle, this man said in a calm tone: "Rather than being a mediocre person, dying alone in the deep space of the universe like a bereaved dog, I would rather die on the battlefield. At least I respect the sage.
On the way to the same destination, we are fighting side by side with the sages."
This simple sentence represents the final ideal of the vast majority of carrier warriors who are rushing from distant galaxies to the shadow galaxy.
All people are mortal.
Or lighter than a feather.
Or heavier than Mount Tai.
But Hongmao and Taishan are both things that happened after death, and no matter what future generations say, the deceased cannot be heard or seen.
No matter how high the glory is, for a living person, it is not as peaceful as the last moment of life.
The porters who go and return are looking for this moment of peace.
…
The emergence of star-breaking cannons fired one at a time from fortress ships caused heavy damage to humanity's first line of defense and posed a huge threat.
Fortunately not every prism ship has a star-shattering cannon.
A total of more than 300 pointed cones were used in more than 30,000 prism ships.
In addition to maintaining the suppression of conventional troops, these more than 300 star-breaking cannons are constantly charging, and then continue to harvest human fortresses with seemingly small and subtle light beams.
The human fleet is still trying to get close to the prism ship, even if it means using its own hull to block a shot from the fortress ship.
The information humans need to collect becomes more and more.
However, the prism ship has gradually consumed all the booby traps, and at the same time, it has laid layers of mysterious and insidious dark energy fog along the way, as well as countless small self-destructing flies lurking in the gaps of the fog.
Self-destructing flies are not very helpful when attacking, but if they want to form a defensive front, they are very effective.
It is difficult for humans to rely on conventional maneuvers to get close to enemy ships.
The tried-and-tested strategy of curve acceleration and direct delivery through hyper-curvature movement has gradually become ineffective.
The prism ships are laying out more and more invisible threads in the universe.
Although the human fleet has been able to tear apart the unified freezing force through the powerful hyperwarp engine in the frozen threads and barely move, it seems to be stuck in a quagmire, and it is impossible to escape the encirclement and suppression of anti-matter interference bubbles, white beams and swarming small combat units.
.
Without the huge carrier fleet risking their lives to rescue them, the Shadow Galaxy's first chain fortress defense formation would have been breached within three hours.
But since the arrival of the first carrier fleet, these civilian, commercial, and industrial ships began to appear one after another at an average frequency of thousands per hour, and directly arrived at the core point in a hyperwarp motion, aiming at those loaded with broken stars.
The main gunship launched a desperate attack like a moth flying into a flame.
Maybe the weapon performance of these ships cannot keep up with the previous one, and they can't even break through the shields of enemy ships, but it doesn't matter. When the ships just break out of hyperwarp motion, there will be a short period of time when the ships move forward at a speed infinitely close to the speed of light.
process, and then will gradually slow down due to the suppression of the universe.
The plan of these transport ships is to use their own weight to swing upward at a speed close to the speed of light.
Even if it is just a piece of mud, if it hits something at the speed of light, the power will be infinitely close to that of a heavy artillery bombardment, not to mention that it is a large or small metal creation ranging from hundreds of tons to tens of thousands of tons.
Some carrier ships that are advanced and heavy enough can even break through the enemy's protective layer and severely defeat the enemy's body.
The desperate impact of the Carrier fleet did cause some trouble to the Compound Eyes, causing the firing frequency of the Star Breaker Cannon to drop a lot.
Chen Feng has seen countless battles in the past hundred years.
He also boasted that he had seen too many casualties.
But the impact he received at this moment subverted his cognition again.
In the past, Chen Feng was used to the hard work of leaders and the spirit of sacrifice of soldiers. He had also witnessed the decisive sacrifice of civilians many times.
But the shock brought by such constant moths flying into the flame from all directions still violently impacted his soul.
With a spirit that Chen Feng could not understand as a young man of the 21st century who was born in a peaceful era, mankind is using blood, bones and life to build the ladder to victory layer by layer.
No one is born mean, and no one is born noble.
When people come, they are all blank.
Part of a person's personality is predetermined by nature, but other parts can change with the influence of the external environment.
After hundreds of years of fear and hundreds of years of struggle, there are no more mortals in this world. Everyone who is still alive today is a warrior.
Everyone has seen too many sacrifices of others and endured too many hardships in the flames of war.
Everyone has lost friends and relatives, even netizens who played games and adventures together on the quantum network, or bragged, chatted and exchanged knowledge.
In these hundred years, social networks have not completely stopped.
People from different star regions with common interests have formed one small social network after another.
The avatars on the Internet go out one after another from time to time.
After these avatars are extinguished, others can click on the other person's social information and see the year, month, time, place, and in what capacity the person died or died in battle.
All these constitute the world view of today’s people.
Of course the movers will come back.
…
Three days.
The carrier fleet bought three more days for the chain fortress formation.
The collapse of the first line of defense, which should have occurred two days and twenty-one hours ago, was postponed to three days later.
At this time, it has been fifteen days since the final battle began.
The Shadow Academy of Sciences headed by Ou Qinglan finally came up with a brand new result.
tnt - beam energy bomb.
The name sounds loud, but its technological content is unprecedentedly high so far.
The tnt-beam energy bomb also incorporates important information exchanged by countless soldiers and carriers in the past fifteen days.
The first half of the name tnt means commemorating the great explosives invented in ancient times.
TNT, invented in 1863, has played an important role in the history of civilization. It is a double-edged sword that has been stained with blood in wars, but it has also greatly accelerated the efficiency of human beings in digging mines and exploring resources, laying the foundation for the future.
The Industrial Revolution laid a solid foundation.
It cannot be denied that TNT has caused harm to human beings in wars, nor can it be ignored that it has played an important role as a booster in the progress of civilization.
The two words "beam energy" behind it, as the name suggests, are to bind various blasting energies into one bomb.
Beam energy bombs incorporate 70% of the most powerful means of destruction that humans have mastered so far.
Countless powerful means of killing were all rolled into a bomb with a diameter of only half a meter.
Different blasting energies are stacked together according to precisely calculated arrangements.
The blasting time accuracy of these blasting energies will be controlled within ten minus fifteen seconds, and the blast diffusion distance accuracy will be controlled to one thousandth of a nanometer.
After detonation, different explosive energies will be briefly restrained by the suppression of special materials, and rapidly spread along the internal veins, forming continuous polymerization changes in the chain reaction, and finally explode with a bang within a million kilometers.
Create a shock wave comparable to that of a high-energy supernova explosion.
According to calculations by the Academy of Sciences, beam energy bombs can theoretically cause a considerable impact on the hull of a prism ship, and may even soften its material and transmit energy into it.
Of course, it is still impossible to completely destroy the prism ship with just one bomb.
Humanity has long practiced Chen Feng's unique skills to perfection.
Anyway, I don't have any hope, it doesn't matter what happens.
In short, the best way is to place the first beam energy bomb test explosion inside the prism ship.
Blast it inside first to see what kind of fireworks it can explode.
Internal detonation, this is the latest test plan proposed by the empire's top brass, and has never been done before.
That's because I didn't dare to think about it before and had no chance.
After all, most of the time, the outer shell of the prism ship is formed in one piece and is seamless.
But now the situation has changed. When the front end of the Prism ship is opened and the star-breaking cannon is extended, the integrated structure of the Prism ship's shell will be actively untied, and the internal structure of the Prism ship will be slightly exposed.
Although there is still an armor lining inside that is made of the same material as the outer shell, the movable outer shell will expose the seams.
In previous wars, human heavy weapons have repeatedly taken advantage of the opportunity for the center opening of the prism ship to release its forces.
There is conclusive evidence that when the prism ship is opened, the material at the internal interface will change in nature, the balance of the surface protective force field will be slightly tilted, and heavy weapons will be able to cause greater changes after being hit.
And the charging time of the Star Breaker Cannon is as long as six minutes!
Since then, the Compound Eyes' Star Breaker Cannon has transformed from the shadow of destruction hanging over mankind into an opportunity.
Finding a way to throw the beam energy bomb into the gap of the prism ship and then detonate it when the star-breaking cannon is activated became the next theme.
After careful discussion, the headquarters formulated a strict implementation plan.
In order to cooperate with the bombing operation, the Academy of Military Sciences heavily modified a pair of Star Shadow Armor.
The specially-made Star Shadow Armor is equipped with the newly developed experimental True Unity Force Shield.
The armor of the entire machine has also been replaced with new materials.
In this material that has just passed the reliability demonstration, scientific researchers have integrated their understanding of the core of the Mystery, the core of the Blade Mantis jumping engine, and all the special materials collected over hundreds of years, so that the internal proton density has not changed. With significant improvement, the molecules build a unique stable force field between each other.
The material's stability, toughness, buffering ability against energy impacts and live ammunition weapons, and propagation blocking properties of transmitted particles have all reached incredible heights. At the same time, its density has dropped by 30% compared to the past.
Thanks to the lightweight of new materials, the maneuverability of the special Star Shadow Armor has been greatly improved.
The Academy of Sciences has installed several new omnidirectional media engines and increased the performance of the curvature engine by 12%.
This greatly enhances the full range of the special star shadow armor's ability to change direction.
In addition, two brand-new anti-matter blasting engines have been installed, making the armor's ability to change left and right directions incredible.
However, such a powerful antimatter explosion thrust will cause the acceleration to exceed the endurance limit of the curvature-like bubble and re-establish the connection between the internal space and the external space.
Inertia can cause great harm to the operator inside.
At the same time, the battle armor cannot really construct a perfect curvature bubble and enter the subspace. It may instantly overtake the enemy ship and fail to achieve the purpose of accurately dropping bombs.
The operator must also keep the speed of the equipment below the speed of light.
In addition, in order to facilitate sprinting, most of the medium and long-range weapon systems on the special Star Shadow Armor were removed, leaving only two short-range positron injection guns.
The dismantled magazine was replaced with a multiple composite shield generator, making the shield performance of this special armor twice that of ordinary Star Shadow Armor.
This series of modifications almost completely sacrificed the frontal combat capability of the specially-made armor.
Its driver also has only one mission, to complete the bomb delivery.
As for why not use smart missiles to drop bombs?
In the previous confrontation, the Compound Eyes obviously knew that every time they used the Star Breaker Cannon, they would take some risks, so they additionally strengthened their front-end defense.
It is impossible for missiles controlled remotely by humans to break through interception.
Only, and must be, the top warriors, controlling the top individual equipment, is there even a glimmer of possibility.
After two hours of intense selection, the person to take on such an important task was selected.
Pound, the first commander of the Torrent Commando.
In fact, Pang De was not the strongest among Chen Feng's students, there were at least ten others whose strength was above Pound's.
However, nearly 60% of the dozen or so people are members of the shadow force, and it seems that the registration applications of this group of people have been rejected.
There are several other people whose training results are better than Pound, but Pound personally led the Torrent Special Forces to fight against the enemy repeatedly and with high intensity for more than ten days, and after nearly escaping from death countless times, his extraordinary performance during the selection was just right. Overwhelm others.
Before Pound set off, he had a brief opportunity to communicate with the sage Chen Feng for one minute in the medium layer quantum network.
It's not that Chen Feng doesn't have time, it's that Pang De doesn't have time, so it can only take one minute.
After setting up an appointment, Chen Feng arrived first.
With the help of technicians, a team of training instructors, and a team of assistants, Pang De is conducting intensive assault strengthening, mainly to standardize some operations and prepare some emergency plans in advance.
