One Thousand Three Hundred and Fifty-One Crossfire

"It's over, it's over, 200 kilometers!" Luo Qi stared at the battlefield with his eyes, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Nanzhou ordered the anti-aircraft guns to fire freely!"
He Lu immediately rolled his eyes: "Please, even if you don't say it, we saw it..."
Before he finished speaking, the friendly ship in front suddenly burst into countless lights, and those beams of light were like peacocks spreading their tails, sweeping towards the incoming insect swarm at a very high speed.
Light anti-aircraft guns!
These three words popped up in everyone's mind at the same time.
"Great!" A bridge officer exclaimed.
Ye Han said: "Zoom in a little bit, yes, give me a close-up of the insect swarm!"
The camera quickly zoomed in, and soon pulled the insect swarm rushing towards the Nanzhou fleet in front of everyone's eyes, and saw beams of light accurately piercing the insect swarm, and often several beams of light hit a bug machine at the same time, killing them one by one.
At a glance, the screen was filled with dense beams of light, like a forest or rain. The beams swept across, killing and wounding countless Zergs in the front, and it was impossible to count how many were killed.
It was very easy to distinguish whether the Zergs were dead or alive. The ones that kept emitting thin beams were definitely alive, and there was no movement at all. The ones that kept drifting with the flow were definitely dead or injured.
The dead and injured Zergs stopped accelerating, and the ones behind that were still accelerating quickly caught up and surpassed their dead companions.
Just then, another round of lasers swept across, and the forest of beams was like a lawn mower driving through the grass, neatly cutting off another wave of lives.
It could be that the Zergs realized the danger, or it could be that the aliens found that the unrestrained death charge consumed too much energy, and the Zergs behind suddenly stopped accelerating, and even hid behind the corpses of their companions, relying on the cover of the corpses to continue flying towards the Nanzhou fleet.
The power of the light defense cannon was limited, and being able to penetrate one Zerg was the limit. It was impossible to penetrate two Zergs stacked together, and the corpses in front of the Zerg were either two or three layers, so the number of kills by the light defense cannon dropped sharply.
The initiative seemed to be back in the hands of the aliens, but the Nanzhou fleet had no intention of giving the enemy a chance. The insect corpses blocking the front suddenly shifted collectively without any warning, and they shifted collectively in pieces, and each piece of insect corpse shifted in the same direction!
He Lu immediately set off and exclaimed: "Shotgun, definitely a super shotgun!"
He was not guessing without any basis.
The reason for saying this is that the displacement of the insect corpses is not large, and the speed is also fast and slow. The former is because the steel balls are too small, and the latter is because the number of steel balls hitting the insect corpses is different.
The insect machine reacts very quickly. As soon as the corpse in front has a problem, they immediately move away and always hide behind the corpses of their companions.
Although the insect machine was exposed for a short time, some of them were still killed by the laser jungle and turned into new shields in front.
Everyone was a little depressed when they saw this scene. Why are these insects so difficult?
Luo Qi looked at the screen and couldn't help muttering: "It looks quite like that!" The insect corpses were in front, and the insect machines were hiding behind, one after another, one next to another, like a chain of insect machines, which looked quite neat.
At this moment, the chains on the flanks of the insect swarm suddenly broke collectively, and the out-of-control insect machines staggered like drunk, and some were spinning like windmills in the wind. The originally neat team was instantly in chaos.
"Oh my god, handsome!" Luo Qi gave the most heartfelt praise.
"Camera, zoom out!" Ye Han shouted excitedly, and the camera immediately zoomed out as he wanted. It happened that the insect swarm was on one side of the screen and the Nanzhou fleet was on the other side.
Not long ago, the Nanzhou fleet was still together, but now it is different. Only the Nanzhou, Yuzhou and a group of destroyers are left in a pile, and the small and fast frigates have all flown away from the formation.
The changes in the Nanzhou fleet made many people feel strange, because the previous formation was indeed a good tactic.
As we all know, the front of a warship has the thickest armor and the strongest firepower, the side is slightly worse, and the back is simply a weak spot.
All the warships are back to back, and the vulnerable tail and side can be covered by friendly forces. In this way, the warship can use all its firepower on the front.
To put it more vividly, the formation of the Nanzhou fleet can be called a hedgehog turtle formation, which is very practical for dealing with the swarm.
The swarm rushing towards such a group of warships is equivalent to actively colliding with the muzzle, and the loss is not ordinary.
If it were not for this, the swarm would not have used the corpse-pushing method.
But now it is different. All the frigates have left the turtle formation and are flying away in an extremely awkward posture.
It feels awkward because their bows are not pointing straight ahead, but the ship body is lying sideways, exposing the relatively vulnerable side to the swarm.
Due to the effects of speed and inertia, this flying method is very common in small-scale confrontations between warships, but it is a very dangerous action in large-scale confrontations, especially when there are enemy ships in front. If you are not careful, you may be penetrated by the enemy.
But whether it is dangerous or not is one thing, whether it is worth taking the risk is another.
The only reason these frigates turned their hulls sideways was because of combat needs!
It doesn't make sense to say this. Exposing one's own weaknesses to the enemy can still be called combat needs? This is just courting death, okay?
In fact, it is not really a suicide. First of all, the Zerg puts the Zerg corpses in front, and there are very few Zerg machines that can still fire, unless the Zerg would rather bear the loss and fight to the death with the human warships.
Another thing is that after the warships turn sideways, the ships no longer shoot at the Zerg in front, but collectively cooperate to cover each other and fire at the Zerg in other directions with crossfire.
In this way, the super shotgun will not hit the corpses in front of the Zerg, but directly hit the Zerg machines on the flanks of the Zerg.
This is why the Zerg flank suddenly lost control!
There are more benefits to doing this. Anyone who knows a little about war knows that machine guns are arranged on both sides of the position, and no one puts machine guns in the middle of the position.
This is because the skirmish line of the charge is thin and long, and the hit rate of frontal firing is very low, but from the side, the skirmish line is much thicker, and the hit rate will also increase accordingly.
This tactic has a special term in the military: crossfire!
The oblique shooting of the frigates and the crossfire are similar in nature, both of which hit the enemy's most painful part.
Although the screen can only see the laser sweeping over the Zerg again and again, in fact the Zerg is suffering from the double attack of the laser and the super shotgun, and each Zerg has suffered heavy losses.
However, the loss of these Zerg machines is nothing to the aliens. Even if the first wave of Zerg machines is completely wiped out, there are still the second and third waves. Even if all the Zerg machines are killed, there are still nearly a hundred alien warships behind. The situation faced by the Nanzhou fleet is definitely not as safe as it seems.
