Eight Hundred and Seventy-Nine: One Step Short of Success
At present, Deimos is of no use at all, unless the super engine is used intensively, there may be a glimmer of hope.
But Deimos is originally behind Europa. Even if all the super engines are concentrated, it will still be chasing behind Europa, and it cannot push too heavy "munitions". As a result, the relative speed between the two is very large. After all, with no mass and no speed, how could a collision be more powerful than the previous collisions?
What an international joke, this is simply thankless. Besides, Europa is only close to Mars for a short time, and adjusting the super engine is not a job that can be completed in a short time. It is too late to issue orders now!
Just when he thought of this, Ling Yu suddenly felt that he had overlooked something, and his eyes couldn't help but scanned several screens: "Chief of Staff, how long has it been since I flew?"
"What?" Wang Tianyu didn't understand.
"Isn't there something like 270 seconds? How many seconds is it now?" Ling Yu reminded.
Wang Tianyu's eyes moved to the data in the corner of the screen: "Two hundred, more than two hundred and ten..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by an angry voice: "Report, Europa has started its planetary engine and is leaving Mars!"
"What!" Ling Yu took a breath and took a closer look, and sure enough he found a faint blue trail behind Muo Ling's butt.
Since the fleet is located in front of Europa, it cannot see the back of Europa at all, so it can only see a little faint light from the side.
I can't see the exact wake, but the little light is enough.
Ling Yu suddenly woke up: "Io's position, what's the change in Io's position?"
"It's leaving Mars. Europa's current speed is only about fifty. Mars... the speed of Mars is three, thirty-nine kilometers per second, and it's still increasing!" Wang Tianyu suddenly raised his head and looked into Ling Yu's eyes. Shock written all over it.
Anyone who knows a little bit about physics knows the three cosmic velocities. The three cosmic velocities usually mentioned are based on the earth. In fact, each planet has its own three cosmic velocities. There is a mathematical relationship between these three speeds. The relationship above is √2 times. The revolution speed of Mars is 24.077 kilometers per second. Therefore, as long as the speed of Mars exceeds 34 kilometers per second, its position will gradually drift outward and eventually leave the solar system. (Note 1)
Ling Yu knew the meaning of this speed, but he couldn't care about Mars now. His face was covered with worry, so he almost picked up a pen and wrote directly on his face: "Deviation? Which way?"
"Move outward, very fast!" Wang Tianyu suddenly shouted excitedly as if he had just woken up from a dream, "It is avoiding No. 3, he is avoiding No. 3!"
Ling Yu asked hurriedly: "Has No. 3 passed the avoidance line?"
Wang Tianyu looked at Ling Yu and slowly shook his head.
Ling Yu seemed to have been drained of all his strength by this news. He was stunned for a while and then said with difficulty: "I didn't hide from the people in front, only No. 3. I must be afraid of No. 3. It's a pity..."
It's a pity that he didn't say anything, but everyone understood what he meant.
"Commander, is there no way to remedy this?" Wang Tianyu said reluctantly.
"Remedy? How to remedy it?" Ling Yu asked.
Wang Tianyu hurriedly said: "Isn't there a nuclear bomb? It has a yield of hundreds of millions of tons!"
Ling Yu pointed at the screen and asked, "Which impact do you think didn't hit hundreds of millions of tons?"
Wang Tianyu was suddenly speechless.
Not to mention 100 million tons, if you pick any one of these impacts at random, the energy erupted by the impact would be more than a few hundred million tons.
Xu Moliang advised: "Commander Ling, if you have a way, try it. Don't worry about whether it works or not. What if it works together?"
"Just give it a try." Ling Yu said weakly.
At this point in the implementation of the Mars plan, it can be declared a failure. The only way to reverse the decline is the nuclear bombs accumulated by the fleet.
In this case, no matter how small the chance is, you still have to give it a try. What if it really succeeds?
Thinking of this, Ling Yu did not dare to neglect and immediately ordered the warship to launch missiles.
Nuclear bombs with a yield of hundreds of millions of tons,
Each one is astonishingly large in size and must be launched with a heavy missile. Even if it is mounted on a fighter jet, a heavy missile must be used as a carrier.
The two heavy missiles immediately entered the launch process, the launch ports were opened layer by layer, and safety measures were lifted. A few seconds later, two flames burst out from the depths of the Nanzhou, and the two heavy missiles flew away from the Nanzhou with bright tail flames. Continent flew straight to Europa in the distance.
In order to avoid the impact of No. 3, Europa is maneuvering to the left - Mars is on its right side, and it is impossible to run to the right. Going left is the only option!
Moreover, Europa is huge and massive. No matter how powerful the thrust of the planetary engine is, evasion will take time and a process.
The missiles launched by Nanzhou are aimed at the outside of Io. If Io remains in place, the two missiles will definitely miss. On the contrary, if it continues to drift away from No. 3, it will avoid No. 3 at the same time. Hit by missile.
The outcome depends on how the aliens choose.
There was no way for Io to hide and no way to avoid it. Even though he knew that the missile could not do anything to him, Ling Yu felt a sigh of relief in his heart.
Perhaps the aliens also knew that Io could not withstand the warm embrace of No. 3. They chose the incoming missile very wisely. Io did not change its direction and did not slow down. They rushed to avoid it before No. 3 arrived. The distance passed by the right side of Europa, and the originally straight trajectory was forcibly pulled into a curve by Europa's gravity.
No. 3 flew a short distance along the curve and got rid of the gravity of Jupiter, but unfortunately it had already flown behind Jupiter and had no chance to hit Jupiter.
Ling Yu and others only saw No. 3 suddenly become extremely bright in the wake of Jupiter's jet, and then burst out layers of brilliant sparks like a short-circuited high-voltage wire, but the sparks disappeared as No. 3 penetrated the wake. It came and went quickly. No. 3 finally flew into the unknown deep space under the propulsion of the super engine...
Of course, the driver in the engine got out in time on the lifeboat and did not fly away with No. 3.
So Jupiter was hit by two missiles without any suspense, and then two mushroom clouds exploded on the surface of Jupiter. One of them hit the lower left, and the other happened to drill into a lava lake, vaporizing most of the lava in the lake on the spot, and the rest was also sent to the sky by the explosion, and a meteor shower fell from the sky.
The power of these two nuclear bombs is not small, but it is nothing compared to the previous impact. Even the astronomical impact can't do anything to Jupiter's moon, so how much effect can two nuclear bombs have?
They tried their best, but it didn't work in the end. Ling Yu was extremely depressed, and the others were not much stronger. Everyone was angry, unwilling, and angry, but they couldn't deal with the situation in front of them.
