Chapter 405: ambush

The asteroid belt between the orbit of Mars and the orbit of Jupiter has a width of 1.5 AU, over 200 million kilometers!
There are more than 500,000 asteroids scattered in such a large area, which seems to be a lot, but in fact, the distance between each asteroid is extremely large, and it is difficult for a normal moving spacecraft to crash into an asteroid. One second to remember 【Watch ☆＾→Book＼◇Guide】, wonderful novels are free to read without pop-up windows!
The fleet of the Catch Alliance entered the asteroid belt shortly after leaving Jupiter's orbit.
However, the areas where they have been driving are only areas of normal density, and there is still a certain distance from the dense asteroid area where the Eighteenth Column is located.
At the speed of 211 kilometers per second of the Catch Alliance fleet, they will leave the asteroid belt in only three days.
The 3,000 warships did not use a concentrated formation, but were separated by a great distance. This was to prevent the spaceship in front from suddenly stopping and causing the rear warships to collide before braking.
"The enemy fleet will arrive in ten seconds! Everyone is ready!" An astronaut wearing a strong colony disguised as a rocky armor is lying on an asteroid with a diameter of several hundred meters, holding one in his hand. A telescope the size of a suitcase.
His voice awakened the pilots who were in a dazed state. Everyone screamed and prayed silently and pressed the ignition switch of the fighter a few times.
A black fighter plane clinging to the back of the asteroid began to eject flames, pushing the fighter plane away from the asteroid's surface.
The Kutch Alliance battleships that are sailing at high speeds cannot find these fighters hidden behind the asteroid in such a complicated environment, and they have turned off their engines!
But when these fighters were ignited, more than a hundred dots appeared on the radar of the Kutch Alliance battleship!
"Not good! A large number of high-energy reactions have been detected!" The radar officer of the Kaqi Alliance battleship changed his face, and the two pairs of claws began to wave nervously.
But they found out too late! Hundreds of asteroids around were instantly detonated by nuclear bombs buried inside, and a large number of asteroid fragments enveloped this star field in the blink of an eye!
All the space in front of the Catch Alliance fleet route is blocked by these asteroid fragments of various sizes!
Some people may wonder, wouldn't it be enough for these small asteroid fragments to hit the warship directly?
Asteroid fragments containing a large amount of metal elements, although the structure is not strong but not weak, although they are in a low-speed flight state seems to be of little harm, but the fleet of the Catch Alliance is in a high-speed cruise state!
What are the consequences of hitting these asteroids floating in space at a speed of 211 kilometers per second?
We must know that the initial velocity of the Federal Electromagnetic Railgun shell has just reached 15 kilometers per second!
And these warships hit these fragments at a speed of 211 kilometers per second! Even if the strength of these fragments is not high, it is equivalent to a naked person rushing towards a shotgun that has just been fired, and this shotgun is still the kind with armor-piercing bullets...
If the warships of the Kutch Alliance do not slow down, it is estimated that these asteroid fragments alone can completely kill the fleet!
The Kaki Alliance battleship that detected these meteorite fragments hurriedly braked, the propeller in front of the battleship spewed flames forward, and even all the ship-borne weapons on the battleship were activated, firing wildly at the front of the battleship!
Although such a braking method is effective, the effect is also extremely limited.
Because the reaction time was too short, hundreds of warships in front of the Catch Alliance fleet plunged into the rubble area caused by the explosion.
Even though the laser weapons on these battleships fired wildly, the amount of meteorite fragments was still a drop in the bucket!
A few seconds later, the astronaut hiding on an asteroid saw a huge flame igniting in the gravel area, and a large number of spacecraft fragments were thrown out of the explosion!
"The first battle is successful! The 113 warships of the target fleet were destroyed! Start ambush operations!" The astronaut threw down the telescope and rushed into the fighter plane hidden behind the rock and quickly rose into the air.
The fleet of the Cage Alliance was overwhelmed by this sudden blow. Before they could react, more than a hundred warships were killed by themselves in the asteroid debris!
But fortunately, the warships at the rear had enough reaction time and reaction distance, they began to scatter and bypass the death zone shrouded by asteroid debris!
At the same time, their flight speed has also been reduced to about one hundred kilometers per second, and is still declining as the front thrusters operate.
The Cage Alliance dare not reduce the speed of the warship to zero, because that means it will take more than ten times more time for them to fly to Mars!
They could only drop by half the speed and watch the changes, and the orbits of all warships were changed to areas with fewer asteroids to prevent the enemy from using this method to strike again. All warships were once again dispersed to be usable. To describe the degree of sparseness, there is even only one battleship within hundreds of kilometers!
"The commander of this fleet is a complete idiot! It seems that dispersing the fleet can solve the problem of too many losses at one time, but it just gives us the opportunity to defeat one by one!"
"Each fighter locks a warship! Ambush immediately!" Lisa yelled and controlled the fighter to rush out of the hiding asteroid.
The fleet of the Kaqi Alliance just appeared in front of their fighters.
Obviously, the warships of the Kutch 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 when the enemy's warship started its engine.
But as soon as these fighters showed their faces, they launched a weapon that looked like a missile.
Missiles, this weapon is a weapon that has already been eliminated from them. This kind of slow, heavy, and easily intercepted weapon, which is slow, heavy, and easily intercepted, will be destroyed if they can't even fly in front of the spacecraft.
These sudden missiles greatly reduced their vigilance, and they felt that the human federation was nothing more than that.
However, these "torpedoes" launched from the fighter plane were launched against the Kaqi Alliance battleship flying at high speed, and the speed of the Kaqi battleship flying was added to the original speed!
When these torpedoes appeared, they had already reached a safe distance to trigger the decoy!
Hundreds of warheads of various sizes suddenly ejected from the torpedo and enveloped the battleship Kaqi!
With so many warheads, it is impossible to tell which is the real warhead equipped with the warhead!
The locked Kaqi Alliance warships can only use the interception system to shoot these flying warheads. As to whether they can hit it, it depends on luck.
However, this torpedo thruster, which lost its power and was floating forward by inertia, was automatically ignored by the computer system of this warship!
