Chapter 538 Target: Zhang Tong
Off the coast of New York Harbor.
Hundreds of plasma cannons aimed at the mandarin's flying dragon troops. In addition, hundreds of Gauss electromagnetic guns fired tungsten-core projectiles frantically, covering the Mandarin's flying dragon troops in a sea of barrage.
The firing speed of the Gauss electromagnetic gun is comparable to that of a semi-automatic rifle, but its power is greater than that of various military standard artillery currently used by humans.
In fact, the modern society has begun to develop weapons such as electromagnetic guns, especially the United States, which has developed the first finished product of electromagnetic guns two years ago. And it has been secretly installed on several cruisers for actual combat experiments.
But the electromagnetic weapons used in modern society, Gauss weapons, are essentially just the primary use of electromagnetic weapons.
It's like the prototype of a musket in the Song Dynasty of China, but it took more than a thousand years for the modern musket to take shape.
No one would think that the various and powerful modern firearms used in the world today have much to do with the bulky and impractical firearms of the Song Dynasty.
Of course, the basic principle of relying on the thrust of gunpowder to push the projectile to kill the enemy is still the same. But other improvements in various aspects are completely different from those a thousand years ago.
It's like the gap between the Gauss weapons used by Starfleet and the railguns used by modern human society.
In front of Starfleet, the electromagnetic guns used by modern society are a lot like the firearms used by the Song Dynasty thousands of years ago hit modern automatic rifles. The two cannot be compared in the same breath.
This is even more true for plasma cannons. Energy weapons have not yet been mass-produced, especially in modern times when military-style energy weapons are nowhere to be seen.
The shock brought by the 300mm caliber plasma cannon is like the shock of the strong ship gun brought by the Spanish colonists for the first time when the Inca Empire saw it.
The Flying Dragon troops, which had been bombarded unscathed by thousands of missiles, began to suffer heavy casualties.
The roar of hundreds of plasma cannons is like the fire of Apollo, the sun god in the sky, to punish the world.
Just a simple touch can instantly vaporize a 30-meter-level flying dragon. There isn't even any room for struggle.
And the Gaussian electromagnetic gun, which is like a torrential rain and wind, has a huge penetrating power, and it only needs a slight touch to take away large scales and flesh on the flying dragon.
The flying dragon troops, which were originally indestructible like dark clouds, suffered unprecedented losses.
"This... is this aliens attacking the earth?" On the shore of New York Harbor, several of Captain Gates' subordinates looked at the sea off New York Harbor more than 20 kilometers away.
"I don't know, but all I know now is that someone mentioned that the United States blocked the first alien attack." Colonel Gates said dryly.
The tension originally caused by the pressure of the flying dragon has now turned into a kind of absurdity.
Yes, just like what is shown in Hollywood movies, the first stop for aliens to attack the earth is always the United States, and most of them are New York.
According to the traditional routine, at this time, a talented scientist probably hacked into the computer mainframe of the aliens, and then paralyzed their mothership.
Then there was a heroic pilot (mostly of color, but not white anyway) with a nuclear bomb deep into the mothership, and finally successfully detonated the nuclear bomb after experiencing various accidents. Destroy the alien mothership.
Of course, there will also be some great things in the movie, such as the former president of the US Air Force flying a plane with a nuclear bomb to prevent the attack of the alien fleet in a suicide way, blah blah blah.
Anyway, the final outcome is mostly that the heroic American army saved the world, and then they were worshiped as heroes by countries all over the world.
Probably the routine is like this. But why not play the cards according to the routine today.
"Is our current president an Air Force pilot?" Colonel Gates asked the black soldiers around him.
"No." The black soldier gave Gates a look of a monster: "Dude, the president is a super rich man. Have you forgotten? His favorite thing is to call his rich cabinet to meet and then brag about each other's merits."
The white soldier on Gates' right also chimed in: "Yeah, I used to watch the news online. To be honest, I thought those things were unique."
Gates looked at the white soldier with some confusion, and the soldier immediately said, "My girlfriend is an immigrant, and she calls it [specialism]. Anyway, I don't understand it very well, but she thinks that the United States is about to come."
Well, Gates isn't going to figure out this kind of complexity. He just went on to ask, "So is there a heroic black pilot in our Air Force?"
The black soldier who asked this question was very happy. He said: "This will be available, Colonel Rhodes! Hero pilot and test pilot! He is ethnically my family. I know him!"
"So where is he?" Colonel Gates patted his helmet.
"Uh, it seems that he has already set off with his Falcon brigade before. But he failed to stop the dragon troop. I don't know how he is doing now." It seems that this black soldier still cares about his own race.
The white soldier looked at Captain Gates in confusion and asked, "Why are you asking these questions, Captain?"
Captain Gates said in a dreamy tone: "I just want to make sure that we have the opportunity to change the celebration date of Independence Day (Independence Day is the national holiday of the United States) or make Independence Day a worldwide event." festival."
The white soldier glanced at the black soldier and said with his eyes: He must be crazy.
Black Soldier: It should be.
White soldier: What to do? Are you going to run away later?
Black Soldier: It depends. It's not easy to do it under the hands of a madman. People will die in war.
White soldier: Let me know when you run away later.
Black Soldier: OK.
The two soldiers exchanged various opinions with their eyes, and formulated several practical plans and opinions on the escape plan later.
In fact, the two of them should have awakened the mutant ability of making eye contact!
Captain Gates didn't know what his two men were thinking, he was still looking at the battlefield off New York.
Under the frantic offensive of the star fleet, the dragon troops suffered heavy casualties. These fighters are quite spiritual, and the formation is not chaotic between flights. And the firepower was so fierce that Zhang Tong and his flying dragon troops had no chance to fight back.
Nearly a hundred flying dragons were wiped out in one volley. This frustrates the Navy and Air Force who have been entangled with the Dragon Force and have not achieved much results.
Now the U.S. military has been completely reduced to melon-eating people. The intensity of this war is no longer what people on Earth can participate in.
Li Jie's telegrams to Captain Rogers and Tony Stark have already arrived. He's going to nuke the Mandarin. Ask them to withdraw the nearby troops, especially the air force not to fly over.
Rogers has already driven the slide wing close to the waters off New York Harbor. And Tony Stark has sent a communication to the East Coast Homeland Defense Command: "General Ross! (Tony doesn't know that Ross is going to implement the Giant Project) I ask you to evacuate the warships and other troops near the battlefield immediately!"
"General Ross is not here, I am his adjutant. Tony Stark, you are not the supreme commander of North America and have no right to order me!" General Ross' adjutant returned.
"I'm not joking, it doesn't matter if you're an adjutant or an intelligence officer, or someone else's second-in-command or third-in-command. All I can tell you now is that my radar has detected a nuclear fusion strike on the way! Run!" Tony said in a Said in a very serious tone.
The people in the command room who had just received the news were instantly stunned. Fusion strike? in New York!
Before everyone recovered, Captain Rogers' communication was also picked up: "I'm Steve Rogers, you can call me Captain America. It doesn't matter who is in command now, but please believe Tony-Steve Tucker. A nuclear strike is really coming!"
Captain Rogers' words finally brought this group of guys back to life.
"Communication officer! Let all the troops evade!" The adjutant had ten thousand antelopes galloping in his heart (Deng antelope, the adjutant's favorite target when hunting.) He had just succeeded General Ross for less than half an hour. How did things get so difficult?
The nuclear strike is still from such a powerful alien, hide there! Now I can only do my best to obey the destiny. The adjutant didn't know the characteristics of thunderstorm-class nuclear torpedoes, so he was almost desperate.
………
Through the images sent back by Starfleet, Li Jie determined that those warships and planes had left the danger zone.
He said to the professor: "Open the banshee-class magazine, and the thunderstorm-class nuclear torpedo is ready to launch."
The professor nodded slightly.
And off the coast of New York, the magazines of twenty Banshee-class battleships have been opened. The first thunderstorm-class nuclear torpedo has been ignited and launched.
This is a missile over three meters long and about forty centimeters in diameter. The whole body is painted in white. Only the part of the warhead is red, and a big x logo is also painted in red.
It was dropped from the magazine and fired in the air. The position was calibrated through the radar fire control of the Nighthawk-class battleship, the target: Zhang Tong!
There is another one tonight
