Chapter 1665 Battle of Broken Horn (9)
The roar of the engine turned into impotent rage in the void, and the roar of the cannon and the scream of the servo motor could only be heard by the pilot himself.
But in this silent darkness, it seemed that the cries of countless people before their death could be heard.
Life was disappearing in the most worthless way. For a time, the sanctuary of the God of Death was overcrowded.
Hall's eyes were rapidly looking up, down, left, and right, making people wonder if her eyes were cramping because of this.
The attack may come from any direction. Even if the ones that intercept them are just a group of space fighters or even shuttles, the enemy can use the cover of anti-aircraft guns, while we can only rely on scattered battleship wreckage in the hope of passing quickly. .
Everyone has used the skills they learned in the battle to the extreme. If you are shot down here, there will be no possibility of survival, even if you manage to escape with an ejection device.
This battle will not end in a short time, and if the battle does not end, there will naturally be no time and leisure to search for surviving friendly forces, so being shot down is equal to death.
The huge fleet is like a snake that is constantly shedding its skin. It's just that the shed skin is made up of magic mechas and human lives.
"We're almost there, attack formation!"
The flight commander sent good news, and everyone quickly adjusted their queues to prepare for a wave attack.
"Get to the projection point and proceed..."
At this time, an ion beam at the level of a battleship's main gun burst out of the darkness of the void. Before the flight commander finished speaking, there was only rustling noise in the communication channel.
The ion beam was less than twenty meters away from Hall, just flew past, and finally disappeared completely.
Only then did Hall realize that he broke out in a cold sweat. If he had been a little farther away, she would have been evaporated in an instant.
The death of the flight commander will not cause the attack to fail. Projecting torpedoes by carrier-based aircraft itself is extremely dangerous, and the flight commander's responsibilities will be automatically extended according to military rank.
At about the same time, the new flight commander shouted:
"Start casting!"
The huge fleet of aircraft jumped up from the front, like rolling waves. Every carrier-based aircraft that reached the projection point threw all the torpedoes over.
aim?
There is no need to aim, and the problem of accuracy can be solved with quantity.
Hall was also in the waves. She saw that her position on the star map coincided with the projection point, and immediately fired the torpedo.
The pylon automatically exploded and separated, and the silver whirlwind climbed vertically at 90 degrees, then turned around.
But there was one guy who clearly didn't take the usual path.
Hall saw Li Chengqi, who was always flying nearby, kicking the approaching enemy shuttle and then flying towards the enemy's main fleet without looking back.
"You go back first, I plan to rush in and have fun."
It stands to reason that this is actually Li Chengqi's standard operation. Every time he sees the fleet, he will rush in directly.
But Hall knew that even Li Chengqi could not survive such intensive anti-aircraft fire unscathed. He was not a novice who couldn't distinguish the situation, so he would generally not choose to do this.
The super powerful engine of GP02 made Li Chengqi leave a word, and at the same time, it became a blurry bright spot on the viewfinder, rushing towards the enemy fleet at a speed far faster than a torpedo.
Hall wanted to follow up to see what Li Chengqi wanted to do, but someone was faster than her.
"Follow! Let's go together!"
A series of echoes sounded from the friendly forces channel. Originally, after the torpedoes were launched, the fleet should return immediately. However, a large group of people did not choose to return, but followed Li Chengqi. Everyone knows what is going on now. A wave of torpedo attacks, even if they are not intercepted on the way, will still not have much impact. After all, the anti-aircraft guns of the main battleships are not vegetarian.
Judging from the experience of the last lightning strike in the meteorite belt, even a large number of aircraft fleet saturation attacks still only play a role in harassing the battle situation.
Time is most urgent now. Everyone knows that once the Red Maple Republic is allowed to launch the reactor jammer again, its advantage will gradually decrease and eventually be completely destroyed.
Regardless of whether he was passionate or patriotic, Li Chengqi's direct charge towards the fleet was equivalent to taking the lead.
So everyone followed closely.
The torpedo's lethality is limited because it will be exploded by anti-aircraft guns on the way.
So what if I escort a torpedo?
This will be the most important turning point in the war between the two countries. Once the victory is won, the capital of the Red Maple Republic will be close at hand, and the final complete victory will be just around the corner.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
The fleet of the Red Maple Republic does not pay much attention to the cruise fleet. After all, it is extremely difficult for cruise ships to threaten itself. As for carrier-based aircraft?
Just use anti-aircraft guns to attack them, and the main focus is still on the main fleet.
So when the news that the fleet broke through the blockade reached the fleet commander's ears, he was quite surprised.
I thought that the pilots of the Xuanshui Federation were indeed of high quality, and there were actually such a large number of them that could reach the torpedo launching distance.
But I was just surprised. With the density of firepower of anti-aircraft guns, the torpedoes would be exploded without even getting close. At most, a few fish would slip through the net. For the entire fleet, especially now composed of more than 10,000 main warships. For the huge fleet, it was completely insignificant, not even a scratch.
There is no need to adjust the formation for this. The Red Maple Republic Fleet now only needs to maintain a good defense and wait for the reactor jammer to be launched again. After two or three times, they basically win.
But the fleet commander immediately received a report that the carrier-based aircraft of the Spinwater Federation did not return after launching torpedoes, but rushed directly up.
Are you crazy?
This was the fleet commander's first thought.
You know, the torpedoes were purposely painted black so that they would be difficult to detect in the void. Even so, they would still be destroyed in front of the machine soul-assisted anti-aircraft guns.
And a group of magic mechas and space fighters whose targets are much larger than torpedoes are even more obvious targets.
Rushing forward like this is like a moth flying into a flame.
No wonder the fleet commander's first reaction was that the pilots of the Spinning Water Federation were crazy.
But he also immediately realized that he was doing this to cover the torpedoes.
As mentioned before, the machine soul is essentially an artificial retard. It operates extremely accurately, but it doesn't know how to adapt at all.
That's why the gunner is needed to provide target instructions to the machine soul.
If you focus on attacking torpedoes, the carrier-based aircraft of the Spinwater Federation will rush around the battleship. There are reports that some of the carrier-based aircraft of the Spinwater Federation carry anti-ship weapons that can penetrate shields and ship shells. If they are attacked by these people, If it gets close, the damage caused may be greater than that of a torpedo.
But if it focuses on attacking carrier-based aircraft, the torpedoes will also hit the Red Maple Republic fleet head-on.
Time was running out, and the fleet commander had no time to hesitate. He immediately ordered a change in formation.
