Chapter 175 Energy Shield Upgrade
As they studied the spherical energy shield, they also found that the range of this energy shield can be adjusted freely.
The larger the range, the lower the defense strength of the shield, and vice versa.
Qi Yiming has tried it. When the energy shield range is reduced to just enough to accommodate the Xuefeng, the strength of the energy shield is as high as 10,000 points.
This means that as long as Qi Yiming is willing, he can even command the Xuefeng and the Azure to rush through the enemy formation.
However, Qi Yiming, who has always been cautious, will not arrange the next defense task casually just because of the large-scale energy shield bonus.
Zhou Can, who knows nothing about this, is still considering how to use the dozen special warships in his hands.
He combined the intelligence obtained from all parties and formulated a set of targeted combat plans.
Zhou Can was not going to split the three fleets, so he gathered together to maximize the advantage of the number of warships.
Moreover, Zhou Can was not going to hide it, and openly put the remaining 14 electronic warfare warships on the table, and heavily defended them around.
I'm telling you clearly that as long as you are not afraid of death, come and I promise that you will not see the sun for the next second.
Of course, he did not forget President Genoa's order to capture the Xuefeng at all costs.
Zhou Can believed that his side had an absolute advantage in the number of warships. As long as he could suppress the Xuefeng and let his fleet calmly surround the Xuefeng, it would be absolutely easy to capture this ancient warship.
In fact, in terms of combat capability, the Ninth Fleet is indeed stronger than the destroyed Second Fleet, but it is only stronger.
Under Zhou Can's leadership, the Ninth Fleet has become famous in the Commercial Alliance in recent years.
For a period of time, it was hailed as the main fleet with the strongest combat power in the alliance.
This also shows from the side that Zhou Can is not a mediocre commander. He still has a set of fleet construction and training.
But unfortunately, no matter how detailed Zhou Can's intelligence is, he would not have thought that Qi Yiming actually had a range energy shield.
Three days later, Zhou Can led the fleet to appear on the periphery of the Lando galaxy.
At this time, Qi Yiming led the fleet to abandon the original first line of defense.
The entire fleet retreated to the orbit of the second planet of the Landu galaxy. He directly abandoned two lines of defense in order to show the enemy weakness and let Zhou Can relax his vigilance.
When Zhou Can led the fleet through the first two lines of defense one by one, he did not feel anything wrong.
After all, the number of enemy fleets was too small, less than one-third of the number of warships he brought, and it was understandable that the commander of the opposite side chose to temporarily avoid the sharp edge.
But the second planet was very close to the star of the Landu galaxy.
Although this was a cosmic war, it seemed that the space of the battlefield was infinite, but in fact, it was not. Many times the battlefield would become very crowded due to the poor environment around it.
Qi Yiming took advantage of this. The fleet was backed by the star of the Landu galaxy, so that the enemy could not really surround himself. As long as Qi Yiming wanted to run away with the fleet, he could turn around and accelerate towards the star.
The distance between them and the star was enough for the fleet to enter the jump channel, but this distance could not accommodate another fleet to move here, because it was too close to the star.
When the alliance fleet appeared in front of Qi Yiming again, Qi Yiming was immediately frightened by the formation set by Zhou Can.
Qi Yiming had considered various situations, but he never thought that the commander of the alliance fleet would show him his trump card without any concealment.
Qi Yiming was a little reluctant to accept this sudden gift, fearing that the enemy had some killer in hand.
However, as the enemy gradually pressed forward, Qi Yiming's fleet's range of activities was severely squeezed.
Although neither side had opened fire, Qi Yiming was already in a very unfavorable situation.
Qi Yiming thought about it, and finally gritted his teeth and said to Qiao Shan: "Implement it according to the original plan!"
So the Azure quickly moved to the side of the Snow Peak, turned on the shield generator at the same time, and modulated the shield mode to the group mode, and then modulated the shield range to the minimum, just protecting the Snow Peak next to it in the energy shield.
"Azure, accept the jump point coordinates and jump engine charging parameters." Qi Yiming quickly transmitted the data calculated by the Wise to the Azure.
In order to ensure that the two warships appeared next to the target at the same time, the Wise provided detailed jump engine charging parameters for the two warships respectively.
When Xuefeng and Weilan appeared next to the first electronic warfare warship, Zhou Can thought that the other commander was stupid? He didn't see such an obvious trap?
But when he saw the light blue energy shield, he almost fainted.
Zhou Can had seen the energy shield in some cutting-edge military science magazines, but he didn't expect that he would see it on the battlefield one day.
Those electronic magazines described the defensive capabilities of the energy shield as terrifying, but Zhou Can just didn't believe it.
When Xuefeng began to attack the electronic warfare warship, Zhou Can also ordered all electronic warfare warships to stop electromagnetic suppression and asked all nearby warships to attack Xuefeng with all their strength.
You must know that Zhou Can brought three full-strength interstellar fleets, nearly 5,000 warships of various types.
When he arranged the battle positions of each wing, he had already considered that Qi Yiming would take the risk of attacking the electronic warfare warship.
So Zhou Can deliberately let the position of each electronic warfare warship be covered by his own warships as much as possible.
So the number of attacks that Xuefeng and Azure suffered instantly was quite terrifying.
When all the attacks landed on the shield generated by Azure, Qiao Shan's heart skipped a beat.
Because the original shield strength of 10,000 points dropped to 6782 points instantly.
But as Azure started all the auxiliary power reactors, the defense strength of the energy shield was recovering rapidly at a rate of 300 points every ten seconds.
Qi Yiming asked Qiao Shan after the enemy launched the first round of concentrated fire attack: "How is it? Can the shield still hold up?"
Qiao Shan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "The shield strength dropped by more than 3,000 points in one round of attack."
"So much?" Qi Yiming was also a little surprised.
"But the shield recovery speed is relatively high, and it can barely hold up." Qiao Shan took a look at the shield recovery rate and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't be nervous, we can withdraw first and wait until the shield strength returns to a safe value before launching the next attack." For the sake of safety, Qi Yiming still chose to withdraw first.
Zhou Can watched the two warships retreat safely after attacking an electronic warfare warship, and immediately realized that there was a big problem with his arrangement.
The current formation was exactly what the other party wanted. If he continued to order the fleet to maintain the current battle position, Qi Yiming could easily sink his fourteen special warships.
So Zhou Can immediately adjusted the fleet formation and tried his best to hide the remaining thirteen special warships.
But it was too late. The Wise had marked all the special warships before the Xuefeng launched the attack, and continuously monitored the positions of the remaining thirteen special warships.
As long as Qi Yiming wanted, he could appear near any electronic warfare warship at any time.
