Chapter 368: Encirclement
Gorgeous fireworks bloomed in space, and countless pieces of spaceships broke away from the warp and flew around.
The large amount of energy generated by the missile explosion shattered the space bubble wrapped around the surface of the mechanical warship for superluminal flight.
The energy and fragments generated by the explosion are fatal to superluminal aircraft exposed to the real universe!
In just two seconds, the entire star field was filled with countless pieces of spaceships.
If these missiles were replaced with asteroids, they would not have any effect.
Because the only way to break the space bubble is to use a large amount of pure energy to overload it, and the asteroids that can be seen everywhere in the universe do not have this kind of pure energy released instantly.
This is also the reason why warp jumps can be used, but Eva did not expect that the Imperial Fleet, which had long turned energy weapons into practical use, was actually equipped with "backward" weapons such as missiles!
You must know that it is almost impossible for beam cannons to aim at warships traveling at superluminal speeds. The only natural enemy of this space bubble is missiles!
No one expected that this time the Empire's hasty salvo directly eliminated millions of mechanical warships.
Unfortunately, the three fleets of the Empire had already entered hyperspace at this time and were unaware of what was happening in reality.
It was not until the monitor left in the battlefield transmitted the images back to the Empire that the Empire found the fleet commander who used the advent device.
The three fleets then realized how much damage the missiles they had launched in a hurry had caused to Eva's mechanical warships!
But now they are too far away from the star system, and it will take half a day to rush back.
It's too late. According to the detection of the monitor, there are tens of millions of enemy warships in superluminal motion!
"Use all the materials in stock to manufacture missiles. After the missiles are manufactured, they will immediately enter the next star system. We are going to have a guerrilla war!" Lei Ming pondered for a moment and made up his mind to slowly eat away at Eva's manpower.
Because the Empire's material transmission transfer station has not been built next to the Eva star field, the current Empire fleet is in a state of no supply.
After all the stored materials are used to build missiles this time, the Empire fleet will lose the ability to continue to manufacture physical weapons.
This attack will be the last attack of the three imperial fleets. After the attack, they will withdraw to the area where they can receive material transmission.
A few days later, the three imperial fleets turned all the materials into various missiles.
The manufactured missiles filled all the magazines and warehouses in the warships.
"All troops set out! Activate the approach jump mode near the target planet where the enemy gathers!" Finally waiting for this moment, Lei Ming, Yi Yun, and Wang Rongtao were full of expectations for the next battle.
With the three people's orders, the three fleets once again jumped into the hyperspace in the direction of Eva's star field.
"Hyperspace concealment device activated! Start covering the hyperspace signal!"
"We still have 30 minutes to reach the battlefield!" The atmosphere in the flagship bridge gradually became tense.
"Approach jump is about to end, and the planetary gravity well will cause large-scale shock to the warship!" The warning sound of the shipborne intelligence sounded in the bridge.
"All weapons begin to charge!"
"All personnel pay attention to their own fixation!"
"Adjust the shield to the maximum value! Get ready for battle!" Lei Ming buckled the seat belt on the seat firmly on the power armor.
"Countdown to the battlefield! 30!"
"20!"
"10!"
"Prepare for impact!" With the roar of the jump engine controller, the battleship rushed into the real universe from the purple space with violent vibrations.
"A large number of obstacles are found ahead! The probability of avoidance is 0.02%, prepare for impact!" Unlike what Lei Ming and others expected, what greeted them was not the vast starry sky, but a "graveyard" composed of pieces of metal debris!
As the battleship could not be controlled and hit the huge debris, the entire battleship shook violently!
Lei Ming was thrown high from the seat, but he was pulled back by the seat belt just after leaving the chair.
Others were not so lucky. Although everyone was fixed to the floor with the magnetic adsorption device at the bottom of the power armor, the violent vibration still made them unable to hold on to the fixed objects, and many people directly hit the hard wall.
"Report the loss!" Lei Ming calmed down and ordered loudly.
"All the warships collided, and all the shields failed!"
"All the warships have zero maneuverability! We are now squeezed together and cannot move!"
"Other than that, there is no loss!" Lei Ming breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the report. It seems that the shields of each warship offset the energy generated by the collision.
It's just that all the warships were squeezed together, and no more serious collision occurred!
Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, countless electromagnetic shells shot at the three fleets of the Empire from the gaps in the huge wreckage around them, followed by missiles.
"No, there is an ambush!" Lei Ming was shocked. Now all the warships of the Empire have lost their maneuverability. If they shrink here, they will be a huge target!
"Start the emergency jump! Let's go!" Lei Ming and Yi Yun decisively ordered the three fleets to start the energy storage of the hyperspace engine.
However, during the period when the engine was storing energy, the Empire's warships could only shrink here and endure the saturation attack of the Eva fleet.
The commander of the Empire would never have thought that in order to learn the movements of the Imperial Fleet, Eva desperately sent spacecraft to the surrounding star systems regardless of losses, just to scan the star system within one second of being destroyed.
After losing countless spacecraft, Eva successfully obtained the dynamics of the Imperial Fleet.
And the Imperial Fleet never expected that the mechanical warships would complete a simple scan in less than one second from appearance to destruction.
A warship launched a scanning wave and was destroyed, the second came to receive the scanning wave and was destroyed, the third received the analysis data, and the fourth transmitted the data back to Eva's host.
It was by this method that Eva, who had mastered the dynamics of the Imperial Fleet, decisively dragged five large "space cities" to the most likely positions of the Imperial Fleet and detonated them.
The fragments of the space city with a diameter of hundreds of kilometers successfully blocked most of the starry sky after being detonated.
And the huge wreckage encountered by the Imperial Fleet after jumping out of hyperspace was one of the five detonated space cities!
At this time, countless shells and missiles were getting closer and closer to the Imperial Fleet.
The outer warships of the fleet used their close-in weapons to continuously intercept the incoming shells and missiles.
However, the number of enemy shells and missiles was too great, and the missiles and shells intercepted by the Imperial Fleet were just a drop in the ocean.
