Chapter 588: Battle! (5,000 Words!)

There was silence in the captain's room, as if it was pressed down by a dark cloud.

There were a lot more people in the toilet than before. In fact, this is a stress response formed in ancient times. When a person is extremely nervous, the sympathetic nerves will begin to get excited, stimulating the endocrine system, that is, adrenaline will begin to be secreted in large quantities.

These adrenaline can help the human body accelerate heartbeat and breathing, increase blood flow, and increase blood sugar, thereby enhancing strength and improving reaction speed. From a psychological point of view, it is called "fight or flight response".

At this time, the excretion in the body is completely an unnecessary burden on the body, which will only hinder fighting or escaping, so the body naturally wants to excrete.

In fact, it is not only humans who will be scared to pee, but many animals, such as dogs, cats, and mice, will also have this situation. This excretion is conducive to survival.

In order to avoid a series of mistakes caused by excessive tension, Yu Yifeng randomly picked a topic: "Is it a war or escape? We will make a judgment immediately based on the information we observe..."

"If we encounter a large ring-shaped spaceship, we will not attack it for the time being, because it may be a lizard's living area."

"...We expect to escape from superluminal speed at 0.4 light-hours on the metal planet, and have an information advantage of about 20 minutes. In the first wave, if we want to attack, we must use the most violent means! Just like if we want to escape, we must do it as soon as possible!"

"If a war really breaks out, we will use neutrino detection technology to scan the metal planet as soon as possible to determine the structural functions of each area and understand its combat effectiveness."

"...Everyone knows it, right?"

"I know it!"

These things have been discussed over and over countless times, and talking about them again at this time is just to relieve the tension.

At this time, a senior officer's order came from the military channel: "The spacecraft is decelerating rapidly, please prepare all observers! Please prepare all observers! The countdown starts in one minute..."

A countdown has lit up on the screen.

Three...

Two...

One...

When the countdown of the last second ended, the detection image finally came out. At the moment when the Future slowed down to the rated speed, it observed a huge amount of data from all directions.

A large number of pictures, after being processed by the computer, were displayed on the screen in less than 0.1 seconds.

Wow, this metal planet has really changed its appearance!

The originally uneven surface was completely smoothed out, reflecting a dim metallic luster under the illumination of the stars. At first glance, there are hundreds of space elevators of all sizes!

Various spacecraft fly in synchronous orbits, serving as space docks at the top of the space elevators. The combat effectiveness of these space docks should not be high.

The most threatening ones are the patrol spacecraft distributed near the metal planet within a radius of 20 astronomical units. Among them, 3 are the size of the "Future", which is hundreds of kilometers long. The densely packed weapons and equipment on the spacecraft show that they are serious military warships!

"This is their flagship!"

Everyone discussed quickly, and the relevant computers and experts were already sitting at their posts to make rough estimates.

"There are 1,341 threatening targets in total!"

"Level 1 dangerous targets: 16. Level 2 dangerous targets: 133. Level 3 dangerous targets: 569..." These dangerous targets were vaguely analyzed based on their size and spacecraft structure.

The moment Yu Yifeng saw this line of words, his heart was pounding. More than a thousand enemy spacecrafts, a little exceeded his expectations!

But the most important thing is that the new humans are not in a good position to escape from superluminal speed. A communication soldier's shout has reached his ears: "Report to the captain, the nearest large patrol spacecraft is relatively close to us and can find us within a minute!"

"It's a large flagship!"

One minute? !

There was a burst of noise in the conference room. This damn spacecraft, or a large flagship, was so close to the "Future", which greatly shortened their judgment time.

"Fight or escape?!"

Yu Yifeng must make a judgment within one minute, otherwise, he may be discovered by the nearest spacecraft and lose his information advantage.

The sooner the better!

1 minute, it is impossible to hold a meeting slowly, discuss for a while, and then vote by all, etc. Only he...only he, the captain, can make an urgent decision!

Time seemed to slow down at this moment. He turned around and looked at Xu Yunjin.

He looked at Lanbo and others.

He didn't even have time to say anything extra, nor did he understand what they were thinking... The fate of the new human race was once again in his hands.

This fate is as heavy as Mount Tai...

"A flagship?" He calculated quickly in his mind, trying to compare various gains and losses and make a final judgment.

There are only three large flagships of the Antai civilization, and one is nearby. Isn't it... not a good thing?

As long as it is blown up, it will be a great thing! Isn't it a flagship?

His temples throbbed, and he gritted his teeth fiercely, "Do it!"

"Start the war!"

With the issuance of this order, the hesitation in the entire conference room suddenly cleared. Perhaps many people are thinking and hesitating... When Yu Yifeng made the final choice, they no longer thought about it.

Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. The eight antimatter cannons on the side of the Future, as well as a large number of ion cannons and laser weapons, instantly aimed at the enemy large spaceship 1 light minute away.

The war-dedicated computer quickly calculated the trajectory of the spaceship, and then, a series of white-hot antimatter beams were ejected, like the deadly death in space.

One minute later, the flagship should have observed the sudden appearance of the "Future", and its response speed was also extremely fast. The stern suddenly ejected a bright ion flame, and the entire fleet wanted to scatter.

But it was too late!

It only had a few seconds left.

For such a large flagship, the huge size and tonnage, on the one hand, improved the survivability, but to a certain extent reduced the maneuverability. The engine worked for a few seconds, so it would not change direction on a large scale.

Antimatter beams followed...

Across 18 million kilometers, the accuracy was not particularly high. A total of three directly hit the spaceship, causing a super huge explosion!

"Great!" A shout rang out in the conference room.

But the good times did not last long. In a few seconds, everyone's face sank. According to the subsequent observation photos, the antimatter beam suddenly became extremely bright a few hundred kilometers before hitting the enemy spacecraft.

This is an important sign of the massive annihilation of antimatter.

And the laser, which should have been transparent, also showed bright light paths.

"Smog?!"

Yu Yifeng shouted in his heart that it was not good. These antimatter beams may have been consumed by some things like mist, so the overall power was greatly reduced.

"... This civilization has a lot of experience in dealing with it."

"This kind of mist is indeed the biggest obstacle for antimatter cannons, and it can also block lasers and ion cannons."

Many high-energy weapons in the universe have high limitations when placed in the atmosphere, such as lasers, ion cannons, etc. Once the turbidity of the atmosphere is high, the range of these weapons is not long, and the energy will be quickly consumed.

This large spacecraft with a length of hundreds of kilometers weakened the power of antimatter cannons and ion cannons because of its excellent response in an instant, or the smog shells fired in an instant. Of course, because of a little haste, a small amount of antimatter still hit the hull, and it emitted an extremely bright light.

But Yu Yifeng knew that the flagship was still fully operational and had not been completely destroyed.

"It would be great if the main gun fired, the power would be greater, but unfortunately... the ship's angle is not good." The main gun of the Future cannot rotate 360 ​​degrees in all directions, so it must be at a suitable angle to launch an attack.

After the first round of attacks, the enemy ship quickly launched a series of counterattacks. Various small spacecraft began to accelerate suddenly and rushed over aggressively.

The attack distance of 1 light minute is still a bit awkward, equivalent to 18 million kilometers, which is too far. The image observed is one minute ago, but it has to hit the target one minute later. With the current accuracy, even if the opponent does not change the orbit, it can only barely hit...

With one light minute, as long as the movement orbit is constantly changed, there is basically no hope of hitting the opponent, because the accuracy is too low due to the distance.

"Who are you?! This is a war! x-on:#￥%" The observatory received an angry message from the other party. There was a series of threats behind it.

At the same time, another series of white-hot rays flashed near the Future.

"I'm going to hit you!" There was a commotion in the captain's room, abandoning even the last bit of hesitation.

"Neutrino detection... turn on!"

"Destroy this spaceship within ten minutes!"

This explosion, due to the distance in space, was still not observed by the metal planet and the surrounding enemy forces. Of course, with the rapid spread of light, this information advantage only lasts for a few minutes.

Now the Future and the flagship fleet are still in a 1V1 duel.

According to the current strength of the new human civilization, the huge antimatter main gun in the center is the ultimate means of attack, and the 16 antimatter guns on the wings of the spacecraft are the main combat power. Ordinary ion cannons and advanced lasers are supplementary combat power.

There are also some micro interception lasers, ion shields, etc. as defensive means.

Yu Yifeng didn't know whether the other party had the same weapon arrangement. But in theory, ion cannons, lasers and the like are all conventional combat weapons in the universe, and their speed can approach or reach the speed of light.

However, this type of long-range weapons has a common disadvantage: they are completely defeated by small haze, including but not limited to lasers, ion cannons, antimatter weapons, etc.

Well, in space, ejecting haze is a very luxurious thing, but it does not require any technical content. This kind of defense means the loss of a lot of material. But its defensive effect is really comparable to various high-tech shields.

At this ejection speed, this spacecraft can create a large cloud of hundreds of kilometers thick in ten minutes, consuming more than 100 million tons of material.

But the new humans are in a hurry and have no time to fight a war of attrition with it here.

"Come closer and fight again!" Yu Yifeng gritted his teeth and ordered loudly. After a short period of judgment, he decided that even if he paid a certain price, he had to blow it up completely and injure all five of his fingers. It was better to cut off one of his fingers. This was the opponent's base camp, backed by a metal planet and a large number of other spaceships. , before these spaceships can react, it is the right choice to directly kill this large flagship here.

The current long-distance weapons have lost their effectiveness. Close combat is the most destructive method. A large number of kinetic energy weapons, interstellar missiles, or nanobug weapons can be used in close combat, and they cannot be defeated by a small mist. Haze restrained.

These close combat weapons are more accurate and more destructive than firing a few shots from a distance.

"Lean over, lean over!"

"The expected nearest distance is... one hundred thousand kilometers!" Various voices on the military channel kept coming. Of course, the military channel has been divided into many levels. What Yu Yifeng can hear are the communications between senior officers.

The Future has a "dark matter deflection shield", coupled with a variety of high-performance materials, its body performance is likely to be able to crush the opponent.

This is a dangerous but sure attempt, because with this technology, their spacecraft can turn at warp speed, and can circle a huge arc at sub-light speed!

This also means that the mobility of the "Future" far exceeds that of ordinary interstellar civilization spacecrafts. It can fight and escape whenever it wants.

The distance between the two sides was closing rapidly, and various lasers and ion cannons were shooting like raindrops like crazy. There is a troublesome dark cloud in the middle, and when all weapons pass through it, they will produce bright light paths.

At this time, the expert team also judged the technological level of Antek civilization.

"It's really not as good as the new human civilization."

"...Their large flagship does not have mature ion shield technology."

Three minutes later, the small drones started fighting. Cheap and efficient kinetic energy weapons have become the mainstream. Electromagnetic guns the size of soybeans can still play their role on the battlefield. Of course, there are also a large number of nano bug weapons mixed in.

Various microwaves that transmit the energy of nanobugs permeate the battlefield. This kind of microwaves has the possibility of interception and interference. Electronic scientists are also nervously trying to decipher the enemy's microwaves... so there is another electronic war hidden on the frontal battlefield.

The Future is not in any particular danger yet. It is orbiting at 0.2 times the speed of light at high speed with the enemy's flagship as the center, drawing a huge elliptical arc one million kilometers long. At this speed, the opponent's drone has no way to catch up, and even the speed of the electromagnetic gun can't catch up! There are also very few lasers that can hit.

The entire battlefield has been greatly suppressed by the enemy in a few minutes. This is also the first time people have seen the powerful power of the Future.

Occupying such a favorable time and place, even after sneak attack on the enemy, if there is still fighting... there is no need to fight at all, just run away.

Seeing this kind of suppression, Yu Yifeng felt slightly relaxed.

The expert team is constantly evaluating the direction of the battlefield: "The opponent's drones cannot match ours in performance. Theoretically, the drones alone can slowly swallow up the flagship. The haze cannot stop the electromagnetic artillery shells." Ah, because of this thick layer of smog, the opponent's interception laser cannot intercept the electromagnetic gun immediately..."

"Six minutes have passed. Some of the opponent's support fleets have started their warp engines and are rushing here. There is still less than two light minutes away."

"So fast!" Upon hearing the news, Yu Yifeng's heart suddenly moved.

He immediately issued another order: "Start the charging process of the anti-matter main gun! Adjust the attack angle of the Future and approach the enemy flagship..."

He felt that if he continued to consume like this, he would certainly be able to win, but... it would be too slow!

"Is there any way to disperse this smog?" Yu Yifeng took advantage of this opportunity and asked.

"...Use nuclear bombs or anti-matter missiles directly to blow them up! At least the ground can be blown up a little thinner! In this way, the anti-matter beam may be able to penetrate through." Xu Yunjin said without hesitation.

"Take one shot, the latest developed... photon torpedo!"

That's right, antimatter railgun, or photon torpedo for short.

Once the cannon is fired, there is ten thousand taels of gold. This luxurious large-scale electromagnetic gun symbolizes the most powerful kinetic energy weapon and energy weapon of the new mankind. It looks like a large torpedo. In order to restrain the violent antimatter, a large number of composite technologies and advanced materials are used.

There is also a small nuclear fusion device inside to power it, and it even has certain turning technology and heat source tracking capabilities.

You know, this is just a cannonball, and its industrial cost is also horribly high. The cost is limited to serious super-light missiles.

However, hyperlight missiles are ultra-long-range weapons that require acceleration over a long distance and are not suitable for such close combat.

Three such photon torpedoes were fired from the main gun exit of the Future spacecraft. Their initial speed is as high as 30,000 kilometers per second, which is one-tenth of the speed of light.

The drone formation surrounding the opponent's flagship detected these electromagnetic cannons and tried to find a way to intercept them. But in fact, the inside of the photon torpedo is antimatter, and even if it is intercepted, a huge explosion will occur.

Ten seconds later, three small sun-like light balls appeared in the space. When seeing these light balls, everyone was excited: an opportunity had arisen.

One after another, the huge light balls, with a diameter of more than 600 kilometers, illuminated the space of hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

One of them was right in the center of the haze cloud, and even faintly affected the enemy's flagship!

Yu Yifeng did not expect that a little aftermath could destroy it. However, the ultimate weapon of the Future, the antimatter main gun, was charging. As long as the cloud was blown up... the enemy flagship would be finished!

...

(PS: Why two in one?

Because the subscription is low, if two chapters are released now, the average subscription may be reduced. Two in one, at least it will not be reduced.)

Also... after the code is done, I am too lazy to divide the chapters.

I will not update it in the evening.
