Chapter 123 Amber, hit Mars!
Under the magnified optical influence of the main screen on the bridge, the Swift Strike, which was three thousand kilometers away, had obviously reacted and began to slowly adjust the axis of the ship with the help of the attitude nozzle.
Because at the current level of human technology, the body of the heavy particle cannon is an accelerating track directly connected to the fusion furnace.
So on battleships equipped with heavy particle cannons, this killer weapon is always arranged on the central axis of the ship.
This also means that when attacking, the battleship must face the enemy from the bow.
The greater the instantaneous power of the fusion furnace on the battleship and the longer the acceleration track, the faster the heavy particle cannon will be discharged and the more powerful it will be.
The HIPW35 heavy particle cannon equipped on high-speed frigates like the Confessor class has a maximum muzzle velocity of 1,600 kilometers per second under full power firing.
At the level of the Empire's heavy cruiser, the maximum muzzle velocity of full-power firing is 2,000 kilometers per second, and the number of equipment is not 1, but 4.
The battleship-level heavy particle cannon has even greater muzzle velocity and power.
As the Swift Strike turned, Amber also issued new orders.
"Helmsman, perform a clockwise lateral maneuver while keeping the axis unchanged, and the angle will shift by minus 10 degrees!"
After hearing this order, Major Randall quickly understood what Amber meant. .
He wanted to avoid the axis of the opponent's warship.
Although the Past Glory is in the 'outer circle', it is impossible to completely avoid the direction of the Swift Strike in the 'center' at the current angular speed.
But this was not originally done to evade, but to buy the gunner time to shoot.
In the past, the attitude nozzle on the starboard side of the Glory immediately started working. This time it was not the pulse jet for fine-tuning just now.
Instead, a long injection of emergency braking is performed.
The entire frigate looks like it was pushed from the right by Takumi Fujiwara and began to drift in space with a radius of 3,000 kilometers.
"Captain! The electromagnetic reconnection cannon is charged!"
Although in this situation where the opponent is already prepared and begins to adjust the bow, Amber should charge the electromagnetic reconnection cannon. The loaded alloy penetrating rod is replaced with a programmed self-forged warhead warhead.
In this way, even if there is a near miss, the self-forged warhead will attack the side or even the main propulsion array at the moment it passes the target.
But I think of the famous ‘micromanipulation master’ in history who ordered the replacement of ammunition twice at critical moments in the battle, and the final result of that famous battle.
Amber thinks maybe she should trust the Gunner again?
After all, it is the first time for the opponent to conduct artillery fire, so some mistakes are inevitable.
So he finally gave the attack order without hesitation.
"Fire!"
Everyone on the bridge only saw a flash of lightning on both sides of the panoramic portholes, and two faint lines of fire disappeared in front of the battleship.
"High magnetic field response detected in the warning direction! Hyper-speed flying objects are approaching! Number 2, presumed to be enemy electromagnetic reconnection cannon fire!"
Tactical information on Swift Strike The coordinator was sweating profusely and his voice was trembling.
The jet of heavy metal particles that just passed by made everyone on the bridge, including Captain Klein, still a little bit stunned.
Most people are actually hearing 'presumed to be enemy heavy particle cannon fire! ’, I actually closed my eyes in despair.
Some members of the Imperial State Church even silently began a brief last prayer.
After all, our warship has just escaped from the jump, and it is still lying sideways for people to shoot.
But after a violent shaking, everyone on the bridge found that they had survived, and the scene seemed a bit embarrassing for a while.
On the bridge that fell into silence, only the shipboard control personality remained, faithfully reporting the damage to the ship while conducting damage control arrangements.
And now, two more electromagnetic reconnection cannon shots followed.
"Quick, the helmsman makes an emergency turn! Leia! How long will it take for the deflection field to activate?!"
"It will take ten seconds, Captain!"
Hearing the ship In response to the controller's personality, Captain Klein couldn't help but squeeze the armrest of the captain's seat. "The attack is about to hit! 8! 7! 6!."
"Everyone, be prepared to resist the impact!"
On the other side, Amber, who was already floating in mid-air, couldn't help but hold the back of the captain's seat tightly during Tom's countdown.
"5! 4! 3! 2! 1! Missed! Missed the target!"
The bridge of the Glory in the past felt like someone had pressed the mute button at this moment Same, fell into deathly silence.
A moment later, Amber's roar echoed throughout the bridge.
"Gunner! If I don't trust you, you might as well trust Chuichi Nagumo!"
Amber covered her forehead in pain, then pushed hard on the captain's seat, and floated towards the rear passage. While leaving, he did not forget to continue to issue a series of orders:
"Temporarily cut off the energy supply to the weapon unit and activate the deflection field! The entire ship's power is distributed to the deflection field generator and the deflection field generator in a ratio of 8:2. Power unit! "
" The heat sink is reopened, the main gun is forced to dissipate heat, and the electromagnetic reconnection gun is loaded with programmed bombs for this round of attack! Class, prepare for the HCP attack, I will arrive in Gnaku soon"
"Leah, the ejection track at the bottom of the battleship is pre-energized, and electronic warfare attacks are started at the same time!"
"Major, increase the speed and approach the enemy ship, Captain Margaret, temporarily take over the command."
Amber's figure disappeared on the bridge, and everyone only heard his last soliloquy before the communication channel was cut off:
"Forget it, it's only a matter of time, and I'll definitely hit you next time. "
Turning to look at the gunner on the gunner's seat, wearing a fully enclosed helmet and shaking his head, Major Randall couldn't help but comfort him:
"It's okay, didn't you listen to the captain? Is there another chance? If you still can't hit it next time, it's not too late to be frustrated."
"Thank you, Major, you are really good at comforting people."
After leaving the bridge, Amber grabbed the teleportation handrail and quickly rushed from the bridge to the Gnaku at the bottom of the battleship.
The people in the maintenance squad still lived up to their expectations. Although they were facing an Imperial HCP, they still successfully completed the preparations for the sortie.
After seeing Amber floating over, two maintenance soldiers who had been prepared in advance dragged a set of heavy-duty hydraulic anti-gravity suits up to meet them, and then quickly assisted Amber to complete the dressing.
After finishing all this, Amber boarded the standard-configuration 'Zhuan' in Gnakuli as quickly as possible.
Then he was lowered to the electromagnetic ejection channel at the bottom of the battleship through the elevator.
"The vector nozzle inspection is completed, and the weapon unit quick self-inspection begins! Enable air combat call sign."
Amber paused, and then thought of his ID that once killed everyone.
"Spectre! (Spectre)"
The scene in the cockpit all around has now turned into a vast universe, with circular coordinate axes rotating as the battleship adjusts its attitude.
The enemy tracking system connected to the warship through a data link marked the enemy warship 3,000 kilometers away as a red triangle.
"The subcritical reactor is working normally, the weapon unit self-inspection has been completed, and there are no abnormalities! No dead points were found in the plasma propulsion array! The sortie inspection is completed!"
"Understood, the charging of the electromagnetic ejection channel is completed, The ejection opportunity has been given to the pilot!"
Lilith's voice sounded. With the computing power of the battleship-level processor, she was now able to appear on the bridge and Amber's HCP cockpit at the same time.
At the same time, Major Randall on the helmsman's seat also pushed the car clock to 'forward three'.
The main propulsion array of the Past Glory erupted with a burst of dazzling blue light, and the entire battleship suddenly accelerated under this huge thrust.
Seeing that everything was ready, Amber in the fanatic cockpit punched the virtual button on the right side that represented 'ejection' without hesitation.
"Amber, call Ghost, attack!"
