Chapter 185 I Almost Drank the Soup

In space warfare, maneuvering descent is extremely deadly. Because maneuvering descent means that the warship is more likely to be predicted and hit twice.

Of course, there is another element here, that is, in this kind of long-distance combat, the close defense guns of the warships have no effect at all, and the light speed characteristics of laser energy weapons make it impossible to see in advance whether the opponent is firing at oneself.

Dodging actions are actually all about computing power and luck.

So after the maneuverability decreased, the Wudangshan ship only took eight shots to hit the Kuntai civilization warship again.

"Captain, the positron cannon hit the target, the enemy ship exploded, and the enemy ship's engine was shut down. We killed an enemy Shan-class warship!"

"Okay, the data is obtained, and the warships at all levels are ordered. Our goal is to slow down the enemy's advance speed, not to prove hard steel. Let the warships at all levels maintain combat distance and carry out harassment tactics. Fight and retreat for me, and slowly return to the asteroid belt."

"Yes, Captain."

There was excitement in the Wudangshan ship. One ship against fifty ships can still kill one ship. This record is certainly worth celebrating.

But they also understood that if they did not retreat, they would enter the effective range of the other three formations of Kuntai civilization, and then they would not be facing the 49 warships of the central army.

However, just as the helmsman was about to operate, he heard the radar soldier shout: "An unknown target is approaching our ship quickly. Scanning is being scanned. The target speed has been determined. The target position and direction have been determined. The target has been identified. It is an electromagnetic railgun!"

"The number has been determined! Captain, 20 electromagnetic railguns are firing at our ship. It is expected to arrive in our ship area in one minute. The supercomputer avoidance parameters reference: **&*&"

The captain of the Wudangshan ship said without hesitation: "The engine is decelerated at 50% thrust, and the left rudder is full!"

After a pause, he seemed to consider that these electromagnetic railguns were a means to force himself to change his course, so he shouted again: "Left rudder for 30 seconds, and then negative acceleration 120G."

"Captain, the shipboard computer shows that if you rudder to the left for 30 seconds, you will be hit by an electromagnetic railgun!" The helmsman reminded.

"Do it!" The captain of the Wudangshan ship said resolutely.

The captain said so, and the helmsman certainly did not refute.

So under the cooperation of the main helmsman and several deputy helmsmen, the vector nozzle of the Wudangshan ship twisted its direction and sprayed out bright flames. Under the strong thrust of the battleship's fusion engine, it slowly slowed down and then shifted to the right.

One minute later.

In the bridge of the Wudangshan ship, everyone only felt a tremor, accompanied by a "bang" sound of impact.

"Our ship was hit by an electromagnetic railgun on the right side, and the extent of damage is being checked. A close-in laser cannon was destroyed, and the armor was partially damaged!"

"Captain, the outer layer of our ship's multi-layer armor was penetrated, the cavity of the second layer of armor was damaged by 73%, and the local line was damaged!"

Listening to the damage report, the captain of the Wudangshan ship breathed a sigh of relief. The Wudangshan ship was hit by an electromagnetic railgun, and the damage was not serious, just a layer of skin was peeled off.

At this moment, the voice of the communicator sounded in the channel of Wudangshan ship: "A salvo of energy beams was detected, the number is 45, and the distance from our ship is 701 meters!"

"Huh! It is so!" The captain of Wudangshan ship took a look at the traces of 45 energy beams and breathed a sigh of relief.

If he had kept turning left as before, he would have been able to avoid all the electromagnetic rail guns, but he would have been hit by up to four energy guns.

The salvo firepower of Kuntai civilization is really strong. If you are really unlucky, you will be hit by several energy beams at once.

"Captain, something is wrong." At this time, the scientific officer on Wudangshan ship suddenly said, and then he quickly operated on his operating table.

"What?"

"The energy weapon of Kuntai civilization does not seem to be a positron beam. Captain, wait a moment, let's compare it." The scientific officer replied.

The energy weapons of Kuntai civilization were too far away before, and he had not noticed it, but when the 45 beams passed by 700 meters just now, he suddenly found that the scattered light seemed to be a little different from that of the electron gun.

They are all light, but laser weapons are the scattering of light after hitting space dust, while positron cannons are the annihilation reaction between positrons and electrons of dust in space and then produce light. The spectra here are different.

And some virtual photons, vector particles, mesons and the like will be produced.

As a scientific officer, he knows how to distinguish these spectra, and this is what he is analyzing now.

After a few seconds, the scientific officer showed a strange look on his face, and turned his head to look at the position of his captain: "Captain, their energy beam weapons do not seem to be positrons, but just large-caliber laser weapons!"

"Seems?"

"Well, the preliminary data shows that this is the case. We need to observe a few more times to confirm it." The scientific officer nodded.

The captain of the Wudangshan ship thought for two seconds, and then gave a direct instruction: "Send this information to the Emeishan ship, let them pay attention to it, this information is very important to us, and it must be sent directly to Commander Yue after confirmation!"

After a pause, he asked again: "Oh, by the way, the two Ganymede IV-class warships were destroyed by the enemy's energy weapons, right?"

"Yes, Captain!"

"If the black box is salvaged"

"Captain, it is too risky to salvage the black box at this time, and it is unnecessary. I believe that it can be confirmed after a few more observations."

"Okay."

The captain of the Wudangshan ship nodded, and also felt that it was too risky to salvage the black box at this time.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the communicator shouted to him in the channel: "Captain, Emeishan ship is communicating!"

When asked about communication, he said without thinking: "Access!"

"Captain Lu, what's the situation?" After the communication was connected, the captain of Wudangshan ship immediately asked.

"Captain Shen, my Emeishan ship took an energy beam weapon from the enemy ship and burned my ship for 7 seconds. I thought he went to see the King of Hell before you, but I didn't expect that it only burned through the outer armor of my ship. The main gun of Kuntai civilization seems to be a bit weak." Captain Lu of Emeishan ship laughed in the channel, as if he was lucky to have saved his life.

The Wudangshan ship was not far from the Emeishan ship, so the communication was delayed by a few seconds.

"Oh? Captain Lu, my ship's scientific officer suspects that the enemy ship's main gun is not a positron gun, and has sent the message to your ship. You should have received it. It just so happens that your ship was hit by a shot. How is it? Is it a conventional beam weapon?"

"Yes, I was just about to tell you about this when you sent the message. Those alien bastards don't seem to have a positron gun, otherwise I would have gone to drink soup just now."

"Drink soup? What soup?"

"Meng Po soup, you old Dengbi!" Captain Lu of the Emeishan ship immediately said: "By the way, I have sent this message to General Yue."

"I hope they didn't hide it!" The captain of the Wudangshan ship replied. Since the Emeishan ship that was hit by a shot has been confirmed, it is correct, but he is still a little worried that this is the Kuntai civilization deliberately hiding its shortcomings.
