The asteroid belt between Mars' orbit and Jupiter's orbit is 1.5 astronomical units wide and more than 200 million kilometers!
There are more than 500000 asteroids or even more scattered in such a large area. It seems that there are many asteroids, but in fact, the space between each asteroid is very large, so it is difficult for a normal spacecraft to collide with an asteroid.
The cartel fleet has entered the asteroid belt shortly after leaving Jupiter's orbit.
However, the areas they have been driving in are only areas of normal density, which is a certain distance from the asteroid dense area where the 18th column is located.
At the speed of 211 kilometers per second, the cartel fleet will leave the asteroid belt in just three days.
The 3000 warships did not use the centralized formation, but spread out a great distance. This is to prevent the spaceship in front of it to stop suddenly, causing the warships behind to stop in time to collide.
"The enemy fleet has ten seconds to go! Everyone, get ready An astronaut, dressed in strong colonial armor disguised as rock, lies on an asteroid hundreds of meters in diameter with a telescope the size of a suitcase in his hand.
His voice will be in a daze state of pilots wake up, all people hit a spirit of excitement, silently prayed a few times, pressed the fighter's ignition switch.
The bottom of a black fighter, which was close to the back of the asteroid, began to fire, pushing it away from the surface of the asteroid.
It is impossible to find these fighters hidden in the back of asteroids and turn off their engines in such a complicated environment!
But when these fighters ignited, more than a hundred dots appeared on the radar of the alliance ship!
"No! A lot of high energy reactions have been detected! " As soon as the radar officer of the alliance ship changed his face, two pairs of claws began to wave nervously.
But they found out too late! Hundreds of asteroids around were instantly detonated by the nuclear bomb embedded inside, and a large number of asteroid debris shrouded this star field in a blink of an eye!
All the space in front of the fleet's route is blocked by asteroid debris of all sizes!
Some people may wonder, these small pieces of asteroid directly hit the warship, not good?
Although the structure of asteroid fragments containing a large number of metal elements is not strong, it is not weak. Although they are in low-speed flight state, it seems that the damage is not great, but the fleet of the kage alliance is in a high-speed cruise state!
What would happen if we hit these asteroids floating in space at 211 kilometers per second?
You should know that the initial speed of the federal electromagnetic railgun shell has just reached 15 kilometers per second!
And these ships hit these pieces at 211 kilometers per second! Even if the strength of these fragments is not high, it is equivalent to a naked man rushing at a shotgun that has just been fired, and this shotgun is still equipped with armour piercing warheads...
if the kacz alliance warships do not slow down, it is estimated that these asteroid fragments alone can completely kill the fleet!
The kage alliance warship, which detected these meteorite fragments, made an emergency brake, and the thrusters in front of the warship spewed flames forward. Even all the shipborne weapons on the warship were started and fired wildly in front of the warship!
Although this braking method is effective, the effect is extremely limited.
Because the reaction time was too short, hundreds of warships in front of the cartel fleet still plunged into the rubble area caused by the explosion.
Even though the laser weapons on these warships are wildly fired, they are not enough for such a large number of meteorite fragments!
A few seconds later, the astronauts hiding in an asteroid saw a huge fire burning in the rubble area, and a large number of spacecraft debris were thrown out from the explosion!
"Victory in the first battle! Target fleet 113 warships destroyed! Start the ambush The astronauts threw away their telescopes and darted into the hidden fighter plane behind the rock and quickly rose into the air.
The fleet of the cartel was blinded by the sudden attack. Before they could react, more than 100 warships were killed in the debris of the asteroid!
Fortunately, the warships in the rear had enough reaction time and distance, and they began to scatter around the death zone shrouded in asteroid debris!
At the same time, their flight speed has also been reduced to about 100 kilometers per second, and it has been declining with the operation of the front thruster.
The cartels dare not reduce the speed of warships to zero, because that means it will take them more than ten times longer to fly to Mars!
They can only reduce the speed by half first and watch the change. Moreover, the orbits of all warships are changed to areas with fewer asteroids to prevent the enemy from using this method again. All the warships are scattered to the extent that they can be described as sparse again. Even within hundreds of kilometers, there is only one warship!
"The commander of this fleet is a complete idiot! It seems that the scattered fleet can solve the problem of too much one-time loss, but it just gives us the opportunity to break through one by one! ""One warship for each fighter! Ambush immediately Lisa yelled, controlling the plane to run out of the hidden asteroid.
This time, the cartel fleet has just appeared in front of their fighters.
Obviously, the warships of the alliance did not expect that the enemy's fighters would come to ambush. Originally, they thought that even if there was an ambush, they would have already flown out by the time the enemy's warships started their engines.
But as soon as the fighters showed up, they fired a suspected missile weapon.
Missiles, this kind of weapon, is a kind of weapon that has been eliminated for a long time. This kind of slow flying, bulky, easy to intercept weapons, in front of their laser weapons, even can not fly in front of the spacecraft will be destroyed.
The sudden appearance of these missiles has greatly reduced their vigilance, and their perception of the human Federation is no more than that.
However, these "torpedoes" launched from the fighter plane are aimed at the Kazi alliance warship which is flying at a high speed. In addition to the original speed, the speed of the kage warship should be added!
When these torpedoes appear, they have reached the safe distance to trigger the decoy!
Hundreds of warheads of different sizes suddenly ejected from the torpedoes and shrouded in the past towards the Kazi warship!
With so many warheads, it's impossible to tell which one is a real warhead with warheads!
The locked kage alliance warship can only use the interception system to strafe these incoming warheads. As for whether it can hit, it is up to luck.
But the torpedo propeller, which lost its power and was drifting forward by inertia, was automatically ignored by the warship's computer system!
