Chapter 1335: Space Fortress, Ilxia Offensive Operation (10)

Compared with armed merchant ships, the environment where the warships are going is more severe, and the armor plates are more capable of resisting temperature changes. In addition, they are already out of the killing range, so the entire cruise ship fleet, including the Swan, has not been greatly affected.

The most obvious impact was that the fleet's formation became distorted as the vaporized matter spread, and many precision equipment, including communications, temporarily malfunctioned.

The electronic pulses produced by a nuclear explosion can destroy all electronic equipment. Alyssa relied on magic to reach the interstellar age, and the impact of electronic pulses on warships was limited to temporary failure.

However, the power of this explosion is indeed shocking.

Even though warships have reactors and they are often described as being similar to nuclear fusion, in fact, those things have nothing to do with the principle of nuclear fusion. The only thing they have in common is that they can output energy continuously.

Whether it is the chemical energy that ignites gunpowder or the mechanical energy converted from electrical energy by electromagnetically accelerated projectiles, they only utilize the energy on the surface of atoms, and the utilization rate is very low.

A nuclear explosion draws on the powerful force within the atom, and a hydrogen bomb uses the characteristic that when two atoms combine to form a heavier atom, a huge amount of binding energy is released. As long as there are enough reaction materials, its equivalent can be expanded infinitely.

Using the atomic bomb as a detonator, the ultra-high temperature and high pressure environment formed during the explosion is used to carry out the fusion reaction. This operation is beyond the comprehension of the technical staff on Alyssa's side, as they have no concept of atoms.

So for Alyssa, it was just a flash of strong light, most of the armed merchant ships were killed, and the bottom military port of the space fortress Ilsha was directly vaporized. And she was 100% sure that this must be the operation of Li Chengxi!
Before the fight, you agreed not to do anything that would attract much attention, so why did you make big news again?

Can you really trust your mouth?
"Communications restored, radar still interfered, aiming system not restored yet."

An Yun’s report interrupted Alyssa’s inner complaints. Although she felt very shocked, Alyssa keenly realized that this was a good opportunity.

"Inform the fleet to follow our ship and advance at full speed, sweeping out the remaining enemy forces and clearing the way for our armored transport ships."

After this hydrogen bomb was fired, the military port at the bottom of the space fortress Ilsha was directly vaporized. No matter how many armed merchant ships were there, they had now turned into smoke and flew away.

The remaining armed merchant ships were either damaged or disabled, or at best toppled over.

The remaining self-defense firepower on the space fortress Ilsha also seemed to be affected by the hydrogen bomb. The accuracy of aiming and shooting was greatly reduced, and even many anti-ship ion beams could not be launched at all.

The electronic pulse had a huge impact on the precision aiming system. Now neither side could shoot accurately, and everyone, including the Swan, could only use machine aim.

It would be strange if you could hit the target accurately with machine aiming on a cosmic scale. Unless the distance is very close, it would be just like setting off fireworks.

Neither the enemy nor our side can aim accurately, which is a great opportunity for a fast cruiser. Rushing forward before the aiming system is restored can greatly reduce losses.

The entire cruise ship formation followed the Swan, which was leading the way, and continued to charge forward in an accelerated manner like a sharp arrow formation. They passed through the star field where space fighters had just been fighting fiercely. The remaining friendly fighters approached their own warships and requested to land, while the enemy would be driven away by anti-aircraft guns.

Li Chengxi and Hall also returned to the Swan at this time.

Silver Cyclone needs to be resupplied, including liquefied magic power and ammunition. By the way, Hall also needs to rest and replenish water, and change his diaper...

Moreover, the Silver Cyclone's viewfinder had a serious problem and needed to be adjusted and parts replaced. Although it wouldn't take much time, it was impossible to do it on the battlefield, so I had to go back to the hangar. As for Li Chengxi...

His machine needed a rag to wipe off the blackened marks, but that was all the damage.

The machine that drops a nuclear bomb naturally has ways to resist thermal radiation and impact. To be precise, the reason why this machine is so bulky is to ensure that one can come back alive after dropping a nuclear bomb.

Although Li Chengxi did not expect the hydrogen bomb to be so powerful, he still achieved the feat of dropping a nuclear bomb on the fortress.

——That’s an achievement.

While charging forward, they were also recovering their own carrier-based aircraft. Further ahead were the remaining armed merchant ships that had just adjusted their posture.

The combat effectiveness of this thing is far inferior to that of a real battleship. The tricky part is that they will rely on the fixed firepower on the fortress behind them to intercept the cruise ship fleet, and their number is huge, so it will take some time to deal with it.

Alyssa had originally prepared herself mentally for the loss of more than thirty cruisers in close combat, but after one hydrogen bomb was fired, all her preparations were in vain.

The cruise ship formation almost submerged the remaining armed merchant ships. At this distance, the main guns could not be used at all. The secondary guns and even the anti-aircraft guns were enough to penetrate the shields and armor of the armed merchant ships. The remaining armed merchant ships were like fallen leaves swept by the autumn wind, and they all turned into space junk within ten minutes.

Speaking of space junk, the wreckage of a large number of armed merchant ships that were destroyed by the thermal radiation of hydrogen bombs was right in front of them. This caused trouble for the Swan and the cruise ship formation. They had to activate their shields and rush forward like dump trucks.

At this time, the aiming system had been partially restored and the distance was very close. The remaining firepower on the space fortress Ilsha began to pour towards the approaching cruise ship formation.

However, because the distance was too close and the Swan was approaching from below, the fleet soon exceeded the depression angle of the fortress's artillery, and except for a few unlucky cruisers that were hit one or two times, the rest of the fleet was almost unscathed.

Immediately afterwards, the fighter jets that had just been taken in were released again. To use a not-so-pleasant metaphor, from a distance it looked like a bunch of flies buzzing around a weird-shaped pile of shit.

There should be no more armed merchant ships inside the space fortress Ilsha, but there are enough space fighters. Fierce fighting broke out again between the two sides in the star field next to the fortress. The anti-aircraft firepower of the warships and the fortress also got involved. The degree of chaos was more than twice as high as before.

But the most important point is that the cruise ship formation has reached the bottom of the fortress, which means that the armored transport ship can carry out offensive operations.

Of course, the main fleets of both sides saw this scene, but no one could spare a moment. If the Red Maple Republic fleet, which was at a disadvantage in terms of manpower, were to send troops to support the fortress, the remaining troops would suffer heavy losses.

Although the Xuanshui Federation has many warships, the resistance of the Red Maple Republic fleet is also very fierce, and dividing the troops will also cause great losses.

It should be said that we are very glad that there are no reactor jammers here, otherwise the situation would become more complicated.

Therefore, both sides were just maintaining high-intensity artillery battles while just looking in the direction of the fortress, without any other options.
