One Thousand Five Hundred and Twenty-Seven
Huo Qiang stood up suddenly: "Super cannon fire, reserve team will set off immediately, cooperate with the space station to intercept enemy ships, the main force of the fleet will withdraw immediately, and the space station will fire freely-"
With an order, the most important and critical counterattack since the war began officially started. The super cannon that received the order was the first to fire, and the beam of light with an astonishing diameter suddenly penetrated the first fleet outside the earth, covering dozens of alien warships in the beam.
At this time, the distance between the first fleet and the moon was about 40,000 kilometers, but just entering the range of the super cannon, the alien warships in the beam seemed dangerous, but in fact none of them were destroyed, even the warships at the front were only severely damaged, and they were far from being destroyed.
And the super cannon was already firing at full power, and there was no room for improvement. The only way to strengthen firepower was to increase the number of launchers.
But at this juncture, where is the time to arrange additional launchers?
At the same time, the reserve fleet came out in full force and headed for the first interception point on the left side of the earth at full speed!
The joint command arranged the reserve fleet at the Lagrange point between the Earth and the Moon, which is 320,000 kilometers away from the Earth. In other words, the Second Fleet of the Earth and the Moon must descend another 100,000 kilometers to encounter the reserve fleet. With the speed of the reserve fleet, it is fully capable of intercepting the enemy.
The problem is that the reserve fleet has only more than 100 warships in total, only 34 super gunboats, and the rest are various main battleships.
On the other hand, the enemy's Second Fleet of the Earth and the Moon has nearly 600 warships, which is about six times the number of warships of the reserve fleet. The strength of both sides is not at the same level at all. If the weak forces intercept the superior forces of the aliens, once they encounter each other, the reserve fleet will be in a worrying situation.
However, after receiving the order, the reserve fleet did not hesitate at all and immediately set sail to the interception point.
At the same time, the main force of the joint fleet on the other side of the Earth also received the order. More than 200 warships immediately turned and accelerated, rushing to the second interception point at the fastest speed.
Although the main force of the combined fleet is located on the other side of the earth, the fleet has been parked in a synchronous orbit at an altitude of 36,000 kilometers. The planned second interception point is also at this altitude. The main force of the fleet only needs to fly from one side of the earth to the other side, with a range of about 65,000 kilometers.
However, the second fleet of Tuwai has to descend from an altitude of 420,000 kilometers to 36,000 kilometers. The range exceeds the distance between the earth and the moon. The main force of the fleet is fully capable of reaching the interception point before the enemy descends to the synchronous orbit.
Of course, the interception point is not fixed. Whether it is the first or second interception point, it will be adjusted at any time according to the speed and direction of the enemy.
Shortly after the main force of the fleet set off,
Beiyuezhou adjusted the altitude of the second interception point from the synchronous orbit of 36,000 kilometers to 194,000 kilometers.
This is also one of the combat plans set before the war. After all, it is not a good thing for the battlefield to be too close to the earth. If the interception point is placed farther away, it will be easier to remedy in case of an accident.
However, the position of the first interception point was not raised, but lowered... It was not that the reserve fleet was too late to reach the interception point, but the command considered that the reserve fleet was not strong enough, so it lowered the interception point to delay time. It would be better if the two fleets could join forces.
More than 300 warships are only half of the second fleet of Tuwai, but Huo Qiang believes that with advanced tactics, tacit cooperation and powerful weapons, the joint fleet has the hope of defeating the second fleet of Tuwai.
To achieve this goal, the first fleet of Tuwai must be delayed, otherwise the enemy will simply abandon the moon. More than 1,200 alien warships against more than 300 human warships, the possibility of the joint fleet winning is too low.
Huo Qiang ordered to open fire again, this time not only the super cannon, but also all the firepower of the own side that can fire at the first fleet of Tuwai.
The super cannon immediately fired the second beam of light, which penetrated the first fleet of Tuwai again and damaged several enemy ships.
The missile position on the left side of the moon also opened fire on the enemy. Hundreds of missiles flew off the ground one after another as if they were picked up for free. After three levels of acceleration, they flew towards the foreign fleet.
Normally, smoke bombs should be used at this time, but this time is different from the past. The command is worried that the smoke screen will hinder the firepower of the super cannon, so the smoke bombs are not activated for the time being, but fly towards the target with the missile group.
The reserve fleet that has left the first Lagrange point is not idle either. It took the opportunity to launch a batch of missiles at each of the two enemy forces, with a number of up to thousands.
If all these missiles hit, the alien fleet must be completely crippled, and the remaining enemy ships do not need to be fought. The only way out is to escape immediately. At that time, humans will win the favor of the goddess of victory and reap the fruits of victory... Of course, this is just a beautiful fantasy. Anyone knows that aliens cannot be so weak, otherwise the war would not have been fought until today.
The third firing of the super cannon was still in the works, when the alien fleet made new moves. All the warships released the swarm of insects at the same time. I don't know how many insects flew out of the enemy ships. The insects filled the gaps between the warships at a speed visible to the naked eye, and they were still developing outwards. After a while, the enemy ships could no longer be seen. Wherever you look, there are dense insects everywhere.
The aliens know the power of the super cannon. The insects can definitely not withstand the power of the super cannon. Therefore, after leaving the ship, the insects immediately dispersed at the fastest speed. In just a few minutes, the alien fleet became a huge cloud of insects.
The super cannon fired, and the powerful beam went straight into the insect cloud. All the insect machines that stood in front of the beam were vaporized on the spot by the beam. However, the insect cloud was too large, and this loss was just a drizzle. The aliens didn't care at all.
The next development surprised the humans even more. The spreading insect swarm actually took the initiative to rush to the moon, looking like they would never give up.
Huo Qiang was in a bad mood. What did the aliens want to do? To delay the firepower of the moon? Or to cover the escape of the Tuwai fleet?
He had a lot of guesses, but there was really not much he could do. Both fleets were sent out, and he only had the fixed positions on the surface of the moon, and at most the batch of aerospace fighters in the Beiyuezhou Airport.
However, the combat radius of the fighters was too short, and the number was too small. Sending them out to deal with the insect swarm was no different from seeking death. The whole army would not get much results in a fight.
The super cannon could kill hundreds or thousands of insect machines with one shot, which was much more cost-effective than the air force exchanging their lives for their lives.
The swarm of insects flew more and more scattered, and the humans also found some differences. The insect machines released by the enemy not only had the previous species that carried snakes and lizards, but also a new type of insect machine with a round head and a round brain and a slender body. Because we have never come into contact with it, we don’t know what characteristics this thing has yet.
Never mind, the super cannon can be used to bombard it!
