Chapter 790 Phalanx
"The enemy is already preparing to enter the wormhole, let's start!"
"Yes! K01~10 'Tracker' phalanxes start to recharge sequentially, coordinates XXX, XXX, solar system No. 2 wormhole, open fire with unlimited extension!"
Following the transmission of the invisible signal, the 10 fort positions built on the large meteorites in the outer solar system and in the Kuiper belt began to reload!
These meteorites have been completely transformed into a honeycomb structure, like briquettes one by one.
Soon, the black needle-shaped projectiles with a mass of only 60g and no reflection were pushed onto the track rifling by the automatic bullet chain.
"Zizi~" A large amount of energy began to gather from several large nuclear fusion stations, and the energy inside the fort position was surging!
The next moment, "Swish, swish!" streams of light shot out from the hive, and disappeared into the void in the blink of an eye.
Almost at a speed of hundreds of rounds per second, this turret position continued to roar towards the distant void. After 3 minutes, the artillery fire finally stopped, and the red No. 1 turret began to enter the cooling down period.
Then the No. 2 battery began to roar.
The 10 forts spit out tongues of fire one after another, continuously...
……
Solar System 2 Wormhole.
The 3000 imperial warships have all passed through the wormhole and arrived at a strange and distant place. The void vortex behind them is still slowly rotating.
As Viscount Iron Wall had expected, the opposite side of the wormhole was peaceful, and it didn't look like someone had discovered it in advance. The inexplicable small cargo ship seemed to be an accident.
"Your Excellency, the Viscount, I have discovered the location of the wormhole leading to the Gemini civilization, but..." the adjutant hesitated and called up a star map.
"Inside the solar system, we detected signs of fleet mobilization exactly three days ago."
The large-scale fleet wake will leave obvious energy radiation trails in space, and according to the dissipation of these energy radiations, it is possible to roughly analyze the passing time of the spacecraft.
"So, it was discovered the first time we opened the wormhole?" Viscount Iron Wall frowned.
From a small detail, it can be seen that the wormhole detection technology possessed by the opponent should not be underestimated. It seems that the small cargo ship was not a simple accident...
The information given by the second prince did mention that the ruler of this solar system is a mysterious organization called All Things Return to One, which seems to be involved with a certain prince in the empire, and even the machine clan, and its technological strength is not weak.
"The size of the fleet mobilized by the other party?" Viscount Iron Wall asked.
"There are about 300 ships, and they are currently gathering in the Kuiper belt outside the solar system."
"Oh?" Viscount Iron Wall raised his eyebrows in surprise.
It was slightly beyond his expectations that a galaxy that had only been developed for a few years could have such a large fleet.
But even so, there are only 300 warships. I am afraid that the moment you know the exact size of your own fleet, you will be too scared to come out...
"Then..." Before he finished speaking, the harsh alarm in the fleet rang out suddenly.
"Alert! Captured a dense attack source, a distance of 300 million kilometers, suspected of high-speed physical projectiles, with a mass of 50g~100g, a speed of 0.3 times the speed of light, and a quantity of 10+!"
The fleet's joint detection radar will soon report the analysis results. This is a wave of high-speed electromagnetic attack!
Now that the live broadcast room of the Iron Wall Fleet has been opened, it means that the civilization of the earth has completely grasped the movement of the enemy, and the coordinates of the wormhole indicate the location of the enemy. Naturally, the Earth Defense Force will not let go of the opportunity to act first.
Although the speed of electromagnetic weapons is slow, it also has its advantages, that is, there is almost no upper limit to the attack distance in space. When the target position is determined, it is very suitable as the first wave of ultra-long-range attack means outside the range.
Counting the time correctly, the projectiles arrived on time after the enemy fleet completely entered the solar system, and rushed towards the Iron Wall Fleet densely!
"Heh! Sure enough, he was well prepared, and the attack was decisive." Facing such an attack, Viscount Iron Wall smiled as if he had no pressure at all.
Without him giving orders, the front row battleships on the periphery of the fleet instantly activated their magnetic fields one by one.
These invisible magnetic fields oscillated and coupled with each other, and miraculously completed the confluence, and finally built a super-large-area electromagnetic shield in front of the fleet.
A high-speed projectile crashed into this magnetic shield, like a fist punched into cotton, and the speed became slower and slower.
At the same time, the ultra-high heat generated by cutting the magnetic field lines makes these electromagnetic projectiles glow red and hot, turning into bright lines of fire until they evaporate completely.
The electromagnetic storm capable of destroying the world was turned into nothingness in the understatement of the Iron Arm Fleet.
However, the attack did not stop. Countless projectiles were poured over like money, as if they would not give up until the goal was reached, and a rain of fire fell in front of the Iron Wall Fleet.
After a full hour, this futile attack still continued.
Even if the Iron Wall Fleet changes course, the barrage like tarsus maggots will soon follow them like a shadow.
The "Tracker" Phalanx turret at the outermost edge of the solar system's defense chain is a space weapon developed with reference to the "Phalanx short-range defense system" on traditional warships.
By launching dense high-speed electromagnetic barrages, long-distance tracking attacks on intruders, even if the enemy cannot be killed, it can force the enemy to be in a "defensive posture" at all times, or perform "redundant maneuvers", thereby continuously consuming the enemy's reserves energy.
The closer the distance, the more significant the power of this Phalanx.
This method of attack is undoubtedly very extravagant for the attacker, because every minute, a huge amount of energy and ammunition are consumed.
However, for the Earth civilization, which has the home field advantage, it is only a loss of a little quality. The celestial bodies in the Kuiper belt are enough for them to use local materials and squander them wantonly.
But for the invaders of Laoshi's expedition, every supply they carry is precious before occupying a stable bridgehead!
"Your Excellency, the Viscount, the other party seems to want to fight a war of attrition with us," the adjutant said.
"Oh! Naive!" Viscount Iron Wall shook his head in a funny way, this small scene would not move the face of the experienced Viscount Iron Wall.
However, the opponent's decisive attack behavior also made him pay a little attention to this inconspicuous enemy.
"The troops are divided according to the plan, but because of their hard work, in addition to the 300 headquarters, another 100 black cavalry fleets will be sent there.
The goal of the main fleet remains unchanged, and immediately go to capture the Gemini wormhole! "
"Yes!"
……
The three commanders of the virtual headquarters of the Earth Defense Force are closely observing the images sent back from the battlefield.
Sufficient preparation time is enough for the Earth Defense Force to launch a large number of miniature detection equipment to closely monitor the vicinity of the wormhole.
"So strong!" Seeing the opponent's way of coping with such lightness, the three of them couldn't help but sink.
They are all veterans in the army, but from the opponent's undisturbed formation and understated response, they can see that this group of enemies is completely different from the ones they have encountered before.
The entire fleet seems to be a whole, advancing and retreating with evidence in advance, and splashing water when defending.
Their phalanx is almost tickling the opponent, and they can't even interfere with the enemy's formation.
"Legion skills! It turns out that the fleet can still be used like this..." While being shocked, the three of them seemed to have been opened to another world.
In the combination technique of the opponent's legion, they vaguely saw the appearance of a large-scale fleet battle in the future...
"Look! The opponent is splitting up!"
"Damn, do you look down on us?"
"Can you stop looking relieved when you say that..."
"Oh! Don't you too?"
"..."
There is no way, this huge fleet puts too much pressure on the three of them.
After having the brain chip, their mental calculation speed soared. Almost at the same time as collecting the opponent's combat parameters, they realized that the strength of the Earth Defense Force alone could not match an enemy of this level.
Fortunately, the enemy's main fleet somehow went straight to Gemini, which greatly relieved the pressure on the solar system.
If it is 400 warships, they still have the confidence to fight.
As for Gemini...
That is naturally a dead friend who never dies.
