Chapter 1211 The beginning of the battle
In the comment section of Zhang Xin's live broadcast room, the audience has long been flooding the screen.
"Damn, what kind of warship is this? It's so awesome? It was hit by more than 900 fortress-level beam cannons, but it has not yet been able to break through the defensive field shield."
"You are really ignorant. It is the private official ship of Shenwei Zhang. It is famous among federal military fans and is ranked 12th on the single-ship combat power ranking."
"Business ships? Military fortresses are just like this. Can this be called a private official ship? Just this warship can have combat effectiveness as good as the warships of two wings, right?"
"Who told us that the Earth Federation pirates are rampant? The chairman of the board of directors with a net worth of tens of billions of dollars flew around, so there must be some security guarantees? The private business ships of top chaebolists are equal to mobile fortresses, which are the default guidelines for everyone."
"It is said that the cost is as high as 1.6 billion Federal currency, which is produced by Weijigong and Weijihuoshi. Therefore, their shipbuilding technology and weapons are still very reliable. As long as you don't cut corners,"
"It's only 1.6 billion? It's so naive. This so-called private official ship is a registered technical verification ship by the Federal Defense Forces. The technical verification subsidies received by the Defense Forces from the Defense Forces through this ship have reached more than 1.5 billion, so the overall cost is 3 billion, which is equivalent to 300 first-class battleships. Is this awesome?"
"Anyway, both sides are very rich. The special battleships on the other side are probably expensive, right? Firepower and defense are equivalent to small transportation stations. They can't get it without a price of 200 million or 300 million. Are these guys really pirates?"
"Haha, don't everyone know the truth? The dogs of wealthy families are just biting dogs, and there is no good person in it. What I dislike is that these guys manipulate public opinion and use public power unscrupulously."
"That's right, even wealthy families like Shenwei Zhang are like this, let alone small p-citizens like us, which feels very scary."
"Although I don't know if the Zhang family is really framed, their image has been very good over the years. Public welfare investment is among the top fifteen in the Earth Federation every year, greatly exceeding the tax exemption limit."
"Actually, what I admire even more is that this guy dares to start a live broadcast at this time. Wouldn't he be afraid of the opposite side?"
"That won't be. We still know nothing about the tactical strategy of the Magnificent Group Joint Fleet. Zhang Changzhi is not a commander. Once a war begins, the tactical instructions between them will only be sent through a dedicated consciousness network and data link, and we cannot see them."
"So you can only see these people, sit on the bridge?"
"It's also very interesting, after all, it's the first time I've seen such a standard fleet-level battle through this angle."
"I have to praise the commander's appearance, it's so beautiful!"
Zhang Xin occasionally distracted and looked at these comments, which was also very interesting. Of course, most of his attention was still on the trend of the battle.
The combined fleet of the Magnificent Group has been retreating in an orderly manner. The overall formation is like a huge wok, turning the inwardly trapped part towards the pirate fleet.
This is the "disc array", a variant of the ancient geese array. It is named after its shape like a bowl and dish. It can maximize the firepower in war, but it is not its strength in terms of retreat speed.
Cheriel was obviously worried about the cooperation between the major mercenary groups, so he deliberately slowed down the retreat to keep the formation intact.
Therefore, after ten minutes, the distance between the two sides inevitably enters within 0.05 astronomical units.
This distance finally reached the effective range of some warships.
At this time, the Shenwei battleship was no longer as calm as before. The shortening of the distance between the two sides means that the power of the opponent's main gun has increased greatly. With the force field shield alone, the impact of those fortress-level main guns can no longer be completely offset.
Zhang Xin felt the hull under him shaking continuously, with a slight amplitude but continuous.
However, in addition to the force field shield, the Shenwei battleship also has full-coverage phase transformation armor, as well as inner alloy armor that is 24 meters thick, far exceeding this era. Therefore, even after the force field shield is broken, the warship is still strong.
The bombarded particle beams only caused the temperature outside the ship's shell to rise rapidly, while the hull itself remained unmoved.
On the contrary, the situation on the other side was much more embarrassing.
The shortening of distance also has the same effect and is even more advantageous for the eight demonstrators' main guns on the Shenwei.
At this time, this battleship no longer needs the assistance of other ships. With these eight demonstrators' main guns, it can pose a huge threat to the twelve special battleships over there.
With just one hit, these special battleships can be seriously injured or even sunk directly.
This also effectively suppressed the firepower on the opposite side, forcing these battleships to make large-scale avoidance actions under the muzzle of the Shenwei, and had to use some energy to its own defense system. This also directly led to the inability of the 120 fortress-class naval guns to exert all their power.
However, the bombardment of these super-spec battleships was certainly shocking. However, at the moment when the two sides reached 0.05 astronomical units, the focus on the battlefield had shifted.
Cheriel had already stood up in the command seat and wore a completely black helmet.
This is an integral part of the tactical auxiliary device for the officer, which can help Cheryl sense the situation in all directions of the battlefield, count data from all aspects, and directly convert her thoughts into combat instructions and convey them to various combat units and ships.
As the seat behind her shrank to the inner layer of the deck below, a huge holographic three-dimensional projection was suddenly projected around Cheriel.
Wei Guo, the deputy commander of the Third Temporary Safeguard Fleet and the deputy admiral of the Joint Fleet, also stood behind Cheriel wearing a black helmet.
"All fleets should pay attention and enter the state of war immediately!"
With the issuance of Cheriel's first command, almost all the staff officers in the Shenwei bridge adjusted their seats to the appropriate position, and at the same time put on helmets. This is also a military tactical auxiliary device, but the versions are different.
At this time, the entire joint fleet was already unified in a huge consciousness network.
"Each destroyer starts to release empty lightning at a constant speed!"
At this moment, the number of destroyers around them, which were nearly two thousand ships, opened the hatch below the head of the ship, and released the empty lightning one by one.
Due to the complex composition of the joint fleet, the models of these air mines are different and the manufacturers are also different. However, due to sufficient preparations before the war, the number of ships carried was extremely large, and in just a moment, they were already densely spread in the space ahead of the fleet.
At this time, Cheryl waved his hand again, causing dozens of red dots to appear on the holographic projection screen in an instant. There were also some tiny numbers around, marked with the names of each combat unit and shooting elements, etc.
"As shown in the picture, each unit fired a volley!"
When Cheryl's order was given, tens of thousands of beams of particles of varying thickness and color suddenly ejected from one side of the joint fleet.
Chapter completed!
