"All fleets release decoy targets! The anti-missile beam cannon is charged quickly! Launch the anti-missile curtain cannon!" Kali Crowdy hurriedly gave the order, and turned his head to Umo and asked nervously: "What's going on? ?”

Wu Moyou shook his head again and again, "I don't know, I don't understand. Since Yuan Xingbo has mastered this kind of stealth technology, his detection radar technology should not be too far behind. We are likely to be under his nose from the beginning to the end. under."

Hou Sheng, who had already activated the bungee jumping ship first and left the assault ship, asked inexplicably, "Then why didn't he escape? Instead, he rushed straight towards us?"

Cali Crowdy and Umo looked at each other, and they both read inexplicable fear from each other's eyes.

At this moment, the identities of the hunter and the prey were switched.

On the other end, Zheng Tian has already begun to order the entire ship to release explosive information flow interference devices, completely cut off the opponent's information flow communication, suppress the computing power of the enemy ship's intelligence brain, and switch between radio communication and silicon chip intelligence brain.

Seven seconds later, the combat command system showed that this series of orders had been fully executed.

Zheng Tian ordered again: "The whole army assaults, speed up!"

The medium thrust engines and gravity engines of the 50 improved armed warships that had been operating at [-]% load for eight years were finally fully ignited, turned on afterburner, and operated at full capacity.

The armed battleship began to speed up from 0.15 times the speed of light, heading straight for the storm assault fleet.

The shuttle ships led by Ren Zhong and Ma Xiaoling had already quietly approached the assault fleet to ambush, and even without optical equipment, they could see the deployment ahead of time with the naked eye, forming a fleet group in a spoon-shaped battle formation.

The originally neat fleet suddenly became chaotic.

The shells of the barrage guns were fired one after another, forming a cover barrage in front of the fleet group.

One after another, small missiles with a large reflection area, extremely conspicuous tail flames, and continuous release of disturbing information flow were launched, smashing through the barrage cloud, and fired towards the direction of the QS-22 missile. go.

Subsequently, the side of the bottle-shaped assault ship with a small front and a large rear began to spray media one after another, and the hull began to move forward under the action of inertia while turning its direction.

The Storm Assault Fleet didn't seem to intend to confront the missiles of unknown origin head-on, and wanted to retreat for a short time.

Behind these bottle-shaped assault ships, the huge force field shield opened up brazenly.

In the encrypted radio communication channel, Ma Xiaoling worried: "Will our missiles be blocked by these interception systems?"

Ren Zhong smiled and shook his head, "Impossible. The QS-22 missile has completely locked on to the enemy ship. Even if there is no information flow scanning guidance, the hit rate is over 80.00% purely by positioning and inertial guidance. What's more, we have also installed radio radar. Although this technology is primitive, they don't seem to have radio jamming devices at all, so they can only be locked on. As for these interceptor missiles, they are just gadgets. The final terminal assault speed of QS-22 is 0.31 times The speed of light is far faster than intercepting missiles. As long as their beam cannons have no time to recharge, they will definitely hit."

Before Ren Zhong finished speaking, he saw a dense meteor shower coming from the sky.

Crossing a long distance in a very short period of time, relying on the guidance of the front end kinetic energy department, it brazenly smashed through one force field shield after another, and ruthlessly smashed into one assault ship after another.

In the blink of an eye, at least 22 of the [-] QS-[-] missiles hit accurately and plunged into many assault ships. On average, each assault ship took at least two shots.

But these missiles did not detonate immediately.

Chapter 506 Computing power crushing, technology crushing, individual soldier crushing

The head of the QS-22 missile, which uses a thickened neutron coating and strengthened solid alloy structure, is accompanied by a terrifying kinetic energy impact, breaking through one structural layer after another in the assault ship like cutting tofu, which is unstoppable.

If there is no interference, these missiles will completely penetrate many assault ships from beginning to end, and cannot cause heavy blows to the enemy, and the killing effect is limited.

it `s just normal.Any long-range kinetic energy missile will face this problem.

But Ren Zhong obviously won't let this happen.The 22 short-distance shuttle ships have already switched to the dual-channel communication mode of radio and gravitational waves.Before the QS-[-] missile crashed into the formation of the storm assault fleet, the shuttle ship had already established communication with the missile in advance and became the relay command.

There is no need to make detailed arrangements, Sun Ai has already set a preset program for each missile, and then assigned a coordinated detonation controller point-to-point.

The main job of these controllers is to prevent the preset detonation program from malfunctioning and failing to detonate in time. The controllers have to start the backup detonation program in time before the missile rushes out of the assault ship.

After the blink of an eye, more than 22 QS-[-]s were detonated one after another with violent energy reactions.

The power part, energy supply part, command bridge, life support system and other areas of many assault ships have been more or less covered.

Among the thousand assault ships, some were lucky, and only one core compartment was destroyed.This kind of lucky player is usually only penetrated by two missiles, one of which detonates on time according to the preset program, and the other is a remedial long-range missile carried out by the operator in the shuttle ship with the assistance of the artificial intelligence program. Detonate.

Due to the time delay, even though the artificial intelligence has responded quickly, it still missed the best burst point.Some missiles even rushed out of the assault ship when they detonated.

However, some assault ships were particularly unlucky, being hit by as many as eight missiles, and these missiles were all detonated on time.During the previous launch, Zheng Tian had already used the public design drawings of the assault ship obtained by Ren Zhong from Wen Yuanbo to let the missile lock onto the core section of the assault ship in advance.

The simultaneous detonation of these four core compartments is devastating to the assault ship.

This first round of sneak attack almost destroyed the Storm Pirates' ability to counterattack.

The reason why it was not completely destroyed was that the camouflaged command ship that Cali Claudy and Umo were on was lucky. Only the power part and the center of the life support system were blown up, and the command bridge and energy supply system were still intact.

In the huge chaos, one small ship after another flew out of the assault ship, scattered and fled in all directions.

Only a very small number of assault ships are turning hard, trying to escape.

Luckily for these ships, at least they still have athleticism.

On the other side, [-] seemingly inconspicuous shuttle ships were approaching silently, and then stopped approaching, only keeping a certain distance.

At this time, there are still explosions happening one after another in the array of assault ships, illuminating the starry sky like daytime, and continuing to approach the past, the invisible state is easily destroyed by the light, just like Ding Canghai saw through the disguise of the critical stinger.

Ren Zhong adjusted his breathing slowly, and ordered softly: "The enemy is about to flee. The mission of the shuttle ship is to intercept those high-level enemies with stronger maneuverability. The eye ship continues to close the encirclement as planned, and prepares to activate the concentrated artillery array .A complete blockade, and no one can be let go."

As soon as his words fell, Hou Sheng's bungee jumping ship had chosen a random position, took the lead and charged away.

In fact, Hou Sheng didn't know where he should escape at this time, so he could only choose a direction at random, judging by his feeling that there should be no ambushers here, and the hope of escape was the greatest, and then he rushed straight.

From the moment of the explosion, Hou Sheng's jumping ship was completely cut off from the outside world, and he didn't know what happened to Kali Crowdy and Umo.After seeing with his own eyes that the command ship was also torn into three pieces in two successive explosions, he only acquiesced that the two of them had already suffered bad luck, and the top priority was to save his own life first.

Seeing the small ships getting closer and closer to him, Ren Zhong first quickly issued distributed orders through the command system, then adjusted the energy distribution of the shuttle ship, and gradually increased the charging power of the beam energy cannon.

In the previous layout, Ren Zhong also paid attention to the position he chose for himself.He is leading the most elite guard regiment between the two points and the line between the Storm Assault Fleet and its base.He judged that the opponent's first consciousness must be to succumb to instinct, and subconsciously retreated towards the safest direction in his heart.Although it is at least 0.3 light years away from the storm base, it is impossible to escape back by relying on small ships, but instinct is instinct, and it will always dominate people a little bit.

On the other side, Cali Crowdy finally regained a little contact with the outside world using the spare radio module.

Since the Storm Pirates had no experience in using radio communications at all, and almost no plans, they only had very basic coded encryption.

This kind of encryption on Ren Zhong's side lasted less than five seconds before it was broken.

It was not Ren Zhong who made the move, but Chen Qiao, a super programmer and hacker who was in charge of the frontline information center.

On the other side, the fleet command that Carly Crowdy worked so hard to rebuild in the chaos immediately became one-way transparent.

Carly Crowdy is sending an order to let the assault ships quickly verify the damage, respond quickly and independently, and reorganize the military, trying to realize how many assault ships are available and the number of remaining combatants in the shortest possible time. how many.

"If you should abandon the ship and escape, run away quickly, don't delay, and don't expect to repair the damaged ship. There is no such time. Hou Sheng, you don't have to return, keep away from the fleet to investigate the situation, and pay attention to maintain irregular maneuvers at any time, so as not to be caught by the opponent. The second wave of strikes is locked. All operations must be completed within half an hour, the enemy cannot only have this wave of strikes... what!"

Just when Captain Kali issued orders in an orderly manner in the face of danger, he suddenly saw dozens of energy beams coming from a distance, converging on one point at the same time, and hitting Hou Sheng's bungee jumping ship.

Hou Sheng's ship was instantly blown apart and turned into fireworks in space.

"It's over." Wu Moyou murmured, "How can we..."

"Wait, there is still a chance!" Captain Cali's eyes widened.He saw a tiny black dot in the blob of light captured by the optical camera.

When the light paused, a slightly embarrassed Hou Sheng appeared in space wearing a battle armor.

Hou Sheng's angry roar sounded in the radio communication.

At that moment just now, all the elite commandos who were with him in the jumping ship were killed and injured, and he was the only one who narrowly escaped because of the stronger protective performance of the battle armor.

But his anger was pointless.

Immediately afterwards, one energy beam after another came from the void in the distance, and dozens of them hit one small ship after another that had escaped from the assault ship in groups at the same time, just like the extreme ultraviolet light in a photolithography machine on silicon. There are lines etched on the wafer, and the soldiers of the Storm Pirates are constantly named.

"What the hell is there? Why is our radar not responding at all? Here's why!"

Hou Sheng roared unwillingly.

Captain Cali and Umo looked at each other in blank dismay.

Hou Sheng's problem is also bothering them.

They were also thinking, if they also left the assault ship in a small ship, would they also be targeted and killed like this.

The two felt creepy, as if hiding anywhere was wrong.

"It's coming again! The missile is coming again!"

At this moment, the surviving radar operators screamed again and again.

Captain Cali was dumbfounded.

In his understanding, the previous high-speed long-range missiles with stealth performance must be expensive to build, and Yuan Xingbo's foundation is still young, so it is impossible to have too many.

But now he was slapped in the face immediately.

Umo said the same: "I don't understand, our large ships have been broken up, isn't this a waste of ammunition?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the radar operator immediately gave an answer.

Those [-] missiles with extremely small reflective surfaces suddenly disappeared out of thin air, replaced by a large pile of small missiles that were obviously smaller but had a much larger reflective area.

Umo gasped, "This is a distributed cluster warhead! The first round of missiles destroyed our formation and damaged our ships. The second round used distributed cluster warheads to cover us and cause damage. This is to kill them all and leave no one alive."

On the other side, Ren Zhong had already heard Wu Moyou's exclamation through eavesdropping, and said with a light smile, "It's pretty smart, it guessed well, but it doesn't make any sense."

Each QS-23 parent-child missile first broke through the barrage interference, and then divided into a hundred small self-seeking missiles when it was about to touch the enemy, and turned into a rainstorm and rushed into the assault fleet.

The technical content of these small missiles is not high. They all use collision-triggered warheads and do not require remote detonation.

The anti-missile beam guns of some assault fleets are intercepting to detonate small warheads in advance.

But this is all in vain. The number of small missiles has reached 80, and it is impossible to be fully intercepted.

In a series of brilliant explosions, the assault fleet was completely torn apart, and even the command ship where Kali Crowdy and Umo were located was hit hundreds of times almost at the same time.

Due to the first round of blows, the means of the power system and the life support system caused the energy supply to be disordered. This section of the command ship was unable to open the force field shield in time, and was completely blown up again.

The leader of the Storm Pirates, Cali Claudie, who had been in the Broken Star Ring for thousands of years, was finally swallowed.

Ren Zhong still didn't rush to announce the general attack, but continued to wander outside with the shuttle fleet, surrounded but not attacked, and continued to observe the enemy, only occasionally ordering concentrated fire to kill some escaped fish that tried to escape.

Unknowingly, Hou Sheng quietly approached further forward relying on the power of the armor.

He finally saw the "willow leaves" scattered in space with his naked eyes.

Although his heart was ashamed, the violent side of his innate genes dominated his thinking. He completely forgot about the balance of power between the enemy and himself, and rushed forward angrily.

Ren Zhong fulfilled his dying wish, rejected Ma Xiaoling and Shi Lin's request to hold the battle, and went out to fight in person, tearing Hou Sheng's armor apart in just 30 seconds.

Looking at Hou Sheng's body that was covered in blood in the vacuum, Ren Zhong grinned, and said to all his subordinates: "This is one of the rumored top ten strongmen of the Fragmented Star Ring, but my subordinates can't even take ten moves. However, I hope you are soberly aware that the reason why this kind of thing can be ranked among the top ten masters is because we have not yet come. The Machine Empire is not a civilization that is good at personal force, and among us Yuanxing humans, there are at least There are [-] super-level professionals. Long-term existence does not mean strength. True strength comes from inner will and hard training."

In the next moment, from a more distant place, beams of light burst through the air one after another, converging on one after another of the small ships of the Storm Pirates that were simply reorganized and tried to break out together.

This is an aggregated artillery array controlled by Sun Ai. Using the principle of the main gun of a battleship, the light beams from all directions are controlled to hit the same direction at the same time, creating an explosion effect after the radiation energy is piled up.

In fact, at this time, the Yuanxing Fleet cannot use information flow communication, and can only use radio communication with a huge delay. However, relying on Sun Ai's precise calculation and time axis calibration, and relying on the accurate detection and positioning of the shuttle ship, it can be realized. This extremely long-range convergent optical weapon locks on.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and before the headquarters of the armed merchant fleet arrived, the vanguard army composed of eye ships and shuttle ships had already completed the battlefield cleaning.

In this battle, almost all of the 4000 million fighters in the Storm Pirates were wiped out.

In fact, Ren Zhong once considered whether to keep a little alive, imprison him first, and then slowly assimilate.

But after trying several times, he discovered that Liu An had engraved the defect genes deeply ingrained in the genetic information of the low-level people in the Nanxiang star cluster, and communication was extremely difficult. Only a very small number of people could think of begging for mercy, such as the famous The third son of the storm called Umoyou.

Anyone who actively begs for mercy and surrenders will survive.It's just a pity that this ratio is too low.

In the command ship, Ren Zhong sat on a high platform, looked down at the thin man shaking like chaff below, and said with a smile: "Wu Moyou, the third-generation patriarch of No. 30, the rich merchant family of Wushi, No. Pirates, secretly supporting the family to flourish in the Sixteenth galaxy, seem to be considering buying a lifelong baron recently. You have quite an idea."

Umo trembled all over.

Before meeting Ren Zhong, he had been interrogated by Xiao Xingyue, and all the small things hidden in his heart had been dug out.

At this time, he knew that his death was imminent, and his family would be affected even more, so he was terrified.

He never thought that Yuan Xingbo, Ren Zhong, would be so ruthless and powerful.The main fleet never showed up, and only fired two rounds of missiles from a distance to completely wipe out the Storm Pirates.

"Master... Lord Earl, please forgive me. This is the idea of ​​Captain Kali alone. I strongly oppose it."

Although he knew that sophistry was meaningless, Wu Moyou still struggled subconsciously.

Chapter 507 Utopia of Umo

Ren Zhong waved his hand indifferently, "I don't care about your ambush, I wish I could, so there's no need to talk about it. Now I know the location of the storm base, and the fleet will arrive in seventeen months."

Wu Moyou: "This..."

After simple calculations, Umo knew that the Yuanxing Fleet actually had the ability to cruise at 0.21 times the speed of light.This speed is faster than the Storm Assault Fleet.The reason why I walked slowly at 0.15 times the speed of light before was just to lure the snake out of the hole.

Ren Zhong ignored Wu Moyou's shock, and continued: "I just want to know what else you can exchange for your own chance of survival, and I don't pursue the kindness of the Wu family. It's business. It’s about equivalent exchange. Right?”

"I... I can find a way to find the hiding place of the Tusk Pirates! I can only do this! I am the only one left of the Storm Three!"

As expected of Wu Moyou, he reacted extremely quickly and immediately seized his most valuable advantage.
