Star Survival: The Rise of the Fourth Scourge - Chapter 441

c441 Strange Technology

“King, there is a message from Colonel Holly!”

After a while, Holly received the message.

“Take it!”

The blue light flashed, and Holly’s bust suddenly appeared in front of Li Meng.

“What did you find?”

Holly saluted with the Sky Eagle and reported: “The destination is an asteroid belt. Buildings similar to docks were found and have been completely destroyed.”

Holly’s discovery was not beyond Li Meng’s expectations.

The battle moon of the Orks was transformed from an asteroid.

It is easy to associate docks with asteroid belts.

“Don’t rush back. Lead the fleet to search all the asteroid belts in the star system. Don’t leave a single fish behind.”

Holly: “Yes!”

To treat the Orks as a species, you can only kill them all.

You can’t be merciful at all.

If you are kind to the Orks, those green-skinned orcs will only think you are a big fool.

Once they have a chance, they will mercilessly open your skull.

Two hours later…

In the dark universe, the expedition fleet slowly entered the orbit of “Shatuo Star”.

As it approached, the “Shatuo Star” was different when observed from a close distance.

It was no longer yellow, and green could be seen in the main yellow.

Occasionally, a large area of ​​green could be seen, and even lakes could be seen in the oasis.

At the same time, on the surface of the planet, in various oases.

All the green-skinned orcs roared to the sky.

They saw the shadow of the ship in the sky.

That was the enemy, that was the prey.

In the oasis filled with houses that looked like a pile of metal garbage,

Giant torpedoes were erected by the fart spirits.

They jumped and roared, and ignited the torpedoes at the urging of the bosses.

The thunderous roar suddenly resounded through the world.

Just below the imperial fleet, on the surface of the planet, in dozens of oases.

Tens of thousands of giant torpedoes rose into the sky, dragging long tails into the sky.

This scene was very shocking.

“Warning, a large number of flying vehicles have been detected on the planet’s surface. They are orbital defense weapons and giant missiles!”

Almost at the same time, shrill alarms sounded from all the ships in the fleet.

Standing in front of the window, Li Meng also saw the giant missiles whizzing in from the planet’s atmosphere.

They dragged long white tail flames, which were very eye-catching.

If there was only one, it would be difficult to see.

When tens of thousands of missiles came, it was quite eye-catching.

Although the defense method was very primitive, it was very useful.

After all, saturation strikes are a very difficult problem in any era.

No matter how strong the void shield is, it can reach the bombardment of more than ten giant missiles, but it cannot withstand the bombardment of dozens or hundreds of giant missiles.

Turning around, Li Meng ordered: “Notify all ships to leave the planet’s orbit immediately!”

With Li Meng’s order, the tails of the fleet ships that had just entered the planet’s orbit spewed out long tail flames.

Under the powerful thrust, the speed of the slowly sailing fleet suddenly increased.

As soon as the fleet left the planetary orbit, a large number of giant missiles followed.

The void shields of the warships at the rear of the fleet immediately rippled.

All the giant torpedoes that touched the void shields were teleported to the subspace.

As a product of subspace technology, the strength of the void shield is unquestionable.

The close defense guns of the fleet ships with shooting angles were all firing.

The dense bullet marks formed a rain of fire that attacked the giant missile group attacking from the rear.

A large number of giant missiles were blown up in mid-air.

“Boom!”

The void shields of several warships were destroyed.

Before the void shields were recharged and deployed again, multiple missiles hit the hull.

I saw the fireballs bursting, and the huge power directly tore the armor of the hull.

The tail hull of a Cobra destroyer was directly shattered.

The Cobra destroyer, which lost power, was captured by the gravity of the planet and gradually flew towards Shatuo.

Soon, it will enter the orbit of the planet.

Then it will fly around the planet and soon fall into the atmosphere.

One warship was lucky. A friendly warship took the initiative to block behind it and blocked the incoming missiles with a void shield.

“It has left the planet’s orbital defense firepower network!”

Until the fleet was far away from “Shatuo Star”, no more missiles were launched from the surface of the planet.

Fleet flagship, in the bridge.

Sitting upright in the spacious captain’s seat, Li Meng frowned slightly.

If it weren’t for protecting the ecological environment of “Shatuo Star”.

He would have ordered the fleet to forcefully break into the low-Earth orbit and carry out orbital strikes on the surface of the planet.

Although it would cause certain losses to the fleet, it could completely disintegrate the orbital defense firepower points on the planet.

In interstellar wars, the battle for planets is often the most tragic.

Because every habitable planet is a hedgehog, a planet-level fortress.

Not only is there planetary shield protection, but there are also a large number of orbital defense weapons.

Its firepower is not comparable to that of a fleet.

Because of this, interstellar wars often become a war of attrition between the two sides.

It is difficult for the attacking side to sweep the enemy in one wave.

They can only eat up the opponent’s territory little by little, weakening the opponent’s industrial capacity and manpower.

Sometimes an interstellar war will last for thousands of years.

Take Apocalypse, the home planet of the Apocalypse Clan, for example.

Even if the four empires form a large-scale coalition, it is extremely difficult to break through Apocalypse in a short period of time.

Because he is very close to Evely, Li Meng once had the honor of seeing the orbital defense system of Apocalypse.

Planetary shields are the most basic things.

Interstellar civilizations with a little strength have planetary shields on their colonized planets.

In addition to planetary shields, each province of Apocalypse has an independent city-level shield.

There are no less than one million giant blaster turrets hidden underground, and there is an average of one giant blaster turret every ten kilometers on the surface of the world.

There are also a large number of laser silos and sublight missiles.

It can be said that Apocalypse is a planet-level fortress.

It is not visible on weekdays, but once war comes, it will show its terrifying fangs.

Although the fleet in the universe has the initiative.

But if you want to occupy a fortress-level planet, without a fleet of a certain size, it is like a meat bun hitting a dog and there is no return.

Even if you succeed in occupying it, your own losses will not be small.

Although the orbital defense firepower of “Shatuo Star” is not as exaggerated as that of Apocalypse.

After all, the Orks are not a race that likes to defend their homes.

But the strength of the Imperial Fleet has not yet reached the level of being able to ignore the Orks’ orbital weapons.

After all, the technology of the Orks is quite weird.

The weapons used seem primitive, but the power is enormous.

As for the missile, the burning tail flame is obviously chemical propulsion.

But its flight speed is not only amazing, but also has a very long range.

Launched from the surface of a planet, it can reach beyond the planet’s orbit.

You should know that the process of launching a missile from the surface of a planet to the planet’s orbit consumes a lot of fuel.

There is also a giant cannon on the battle moon, which fires shells at a speed exceeding 20% ​​of the speed of light.

This speed is far higher than the magnetic acceleration cannon of the former UNSC of the Pan-Galactic United States.

Is this normal?

Of course not, because the giant cannon of the Orks also uses chemical propulsion.

You can see it from the flames spewing from the muzzle.
