Chapter 191 Space Minefield
However, Zhu Lei's Suzaku army must first face the large number of space mines and automatic space torpedo missile launchers deployed by the opponent's civilization on the outskirts of the galaxy. These are the most basic defensive combat units of the primary civilization in space. Maritime combat is also the most difficult combat unit to guard against. It should be that the universe is not empty, but there are various meteorites and asteroids of different shapes and sizes in space all the time. exercise,
On the outskirts of this planetary system of the Ruhr civilization, there is an asteroid belt. Although this asteroid belt is not as dense as the asteroid belt in the solar system, it also has a lot of meteorites. The data of the detectors show that the Ruhr people have deployed a large number of space torpedoes and space mines in this asteroid belt, and because these space mines and space torpedoes follow the asteroid belt to do different movements, so these mines And torpedo launchers are difficult to find, so clearing these space mines is a top priority for the current fleet of the Suzaku Army.
Although the vanguard of this attack on the Ruhr civilization is the simplest and cheapest unmanned equipment, these unmanned equipment are also the combat effectiveness of the Suzaku Army, so it is obviously unrealistic to lose them for no reason. A way must be found to eliminate the threat of these space mines and space torpedo automatic launchers before the fleet can move forward.
Moreover, these space mines in this asteroid belt must have weapons of mass destruction. After all, as a primary high-level civilization, no one would believe it if there were no weapons of mass destruction. Although they have not found each other from previous wars There are no traces of civilization's weapons of mass destruction, and I don't know how powerful their weapons of mass destruction are compared to the nuclear bombs of human civilization. However, Zhu Lei can be sure of one thing, their weapons of mass destruction The power of the bomb is definitely not greater than that of the nuclear bomb, which can be known with certainty from the previous war with their civilized fleet.
Otherwise, the fleet of their civilization would not collapse directly after being attacked by the nuclear bomb of the earth civilization.
After much deliberation, Zhu Lei decided to send some unmanned aerial vehicles to test the minefields inside the space defense line set up by the opponent first, and then make sure whether they have deployed weapons of mass destruction in the minefields, and make sure that these space He is planning how big a threat the sea mines and torpedoes are to the Suzaku Army.
After all, this war is the first space war of earth civilization. It is always right to be careful. Although it is hot to say that there is no immortality in war, especially space war. As long as the battleship is hit by the enemy, the personnel in the battleship will die If you don’t take effective and correct measures, you will always die. After all, space wars are not surface wars inside your planet. If there is no other way after a battleship is hit, you can abandon the ship. Even if there are no protective measures, the chance of survival is very low. There are still.
But space wars are different. If there are no protective measures, the harsh environment in space is enough to instantly kill creatures exposed to space after leaving the battleship that protects them, unless the creature has been cultivated enough to resist the harsh environment of space with its body. up.
Of course, Zhu Lei can also bypass the space minefield in front of them, but the time required to do so will be at least two months longer than entering their galaxy directly from here. If they don't go in a straight line, it will take at least half a year for Zhu Lei and the others to reach the home planet of the Ruhr civilization. If this is the case, the personnel on the current battleship can't bear to stay in the environment without gravity for such a long time. Among them, especially those other races who have just begun to practice.
But at that time, if there is really no other way, we can only go around from other places, but Zhu Lei's current thinking is that he doesn't want to go around from other places at all, even if he uses a nuclear bomb to blow up a passable road here come out.
In addition to dispatching some unmanned combat aerial vehicles, Zhu Lei also launched countless space probes to this asteroid belt, planning to use the most stupid method, first use the probes to determine where the enemy's space mines are, and then directly use artillery fire Destroy these weapons that are a threat to the warships on our side, and slowly clear these space mines. According to Zhu Lei's estimate, even if this is the case, they will only need less than a month to clear a minefield in this minefield. The road is open for warships to pass.
Of course, with nuclear bombs, it only takes a few days to clear a road.
Not long after, the dispatched unmanned warships finally entered the asteroid belt. When they first entered the asteroid belt, these warships shuttled through the asteroid belt without incident, and did not find the mines laid by the Ruhr civilization. ,
But when these battleships continued to reach the middle of the asteroid belt, suddenly a not-so-large meteorite next to a battleship exploded, and the unmanned battleship next to it was directly in space. into fragments.
Seeing such a situation, Zhu Lei was glad that he didn't go in hastily. You must know that although this battleship was refitted from a small torpedo boat on the sea surface, it was a battleship after all, not a fighter jet, and it couldn't be equipped with armor. The human battleship has thick external armor, but even so, this battleship was still smashed to pieces by these space mines. It is conceivable how amazing the power of these space mines is.
After calculations by the computer on the battleship, the power of the mines exploded in various countries has reached the power produced by the explosion of [-] tons of TNT explosives. Even the battleship Zhu Lei himself is sitting on now cannot withstand such a mine. The explosion of a mine.
Seeing this situation, Zhu Lei has no good way to clear the mines in this meteorite belt for a while, and it takes too long to bypass this meteorite belt. After all, the earth civilization has not yet mastered warp speed navigation. Wait for the superluminal engine, if there is such an engine, it will not take long to bypass this meteorite belt.
After much deliberation, Zhu Lei didn't have any good solution for a while, except to use the unmanned battleship to lay down a passage directly, or blast a passage with electromagnetic rail guns and nuclear bombs. There seems to be no better way. The consumption of unmanned warships is too great if the warships lie down. After all, most of the unmanned warships in the Suzaku Army commanded by Zhu Lei are not large-scale unmanned warships. , and the meteorite belt is always in motion, so even if a road is opened by a battleship or a nuclear bomb, it will not be long before the road will be re-sealed.
