Alien Relic Hunter

Chapter 779 Herroni's Crazy Plan
Compared with ordinary humans, the ghost-faced giant owl has overwhelming combat effectiveness. In a normal battle, a ghost-faced giant owl can easily wipe out a reinforced human platoon without heavy equipment.

However, the internal space of the battleship is small, and the space for the huge ghost-faced owls is severely limited. In addition, this batch of ghost-faced owls still belong to the category of flying creatures, not the ones Ke Lan and the others encountered on the ground. A mutated "land combat type", even if it is unable to fly, its strength will be greatly reduced.

The combination of various unfavorable factors prevented these ghost-faced tycoons from massacring in the battleship. Instead, they were temporarily suppressed by the officers and soldiers of the "Shaojiang Reform" with firepower.

What I have to say is that the deformed and stuck hatch made a great contribution—because the opening gap was too small, the ghost-faced owls could only sneak into the corridor from the cabin at the other end one by one. This gave Hruni and the others a chance to defeat each of them.Two marines wearing heavy power armor stood at the front, and the 25mm rapid-fire machine gun let out a deafening roar, beating the ghost-faced owl who entered the corridor to a bloody mess.

The corpses of the killed ghost-faced giant owls will quickly decompose and fester, so there is no situation where the corpses block the road. With these two rapid-fire cannons as the pioneers, Hruni led this team consisting of marines, guards, civilian officers and others. A mixed force composed of logistics personnel moved forward steadily.

"Pay attention to the temperature of the gun barrel, and be careful of overheating and blasting the chamber! Once the temperature is close to the warning threshold, report in advance, and I will ask someone to change the position!" Having previously been killed in the explosion of the No. [-] anti-aircraft turret ammunition depot, he is now the highest-ranking officer in the Marine Corps.

There are five remaining heavy-duty power armors equipped with large-caliber rapid-fire cannons in the Marine Corps, but Dean did not put these five power armors and five cannons into battle at once - the space inside the battleship is narrow and the corridor is wide. No longer than ten meters, two machine guns and light weapons in the hands of other soldiers are enough to complete the firepower suppression. As for the three extra armor and three machine guns, they are used to prevent the first two machine guns from overheating and changing ammunition. Substitute from time to time to maintain the continuity of firepower.

Soon, everyone pushed the battle line to the damaged cabin door, and the muzzles of the two rapid-fire cannons directly hit the door crack, pouring ammunition towards the large number of biological weapons gathered on the other side of the cabin door.

Although there is a shortage of manpower, there is no shortage of ammunition on the frigate of the "Shaojiang Kai"—for warships performing such long-distance missions, the ammunition, fuel, and various military supplies carried on board must be guaranteed to survive without resupply. It can continue to fight with moderate intensity for more than a week.Although two of the eight ammunition depots were martyred, and four were occupied or blocked by biological weapons, the remaining two were enough for this mixed force of less than a hundred people to fight happily.

"Captain! The advance is blocked!" Dean roared loudly, the roar of the rapid-fire machine gun almost completely covered his voice, he could only walk quickly to Hruni's side, and repeated to the latter's ear again.

"Can't we find a way to clear the monsters blocking the door?" Hrooney responded loudly in the same way after hearing what the vice-captain said clearly.

"It's not all! Those monsters rushed up one after another. The soldiers wearing power armor have been rotated for three batches, and the barrels of the rapid-fire machine guns have also been replaced by more than a dozen, but looking in through the crack of the door, those monsters The number doesn't seem to be decreasing at all..."

Hruni raised his head and looked forward, and saw that the ground by the door was already covered with brass-colored ammunition casings as thick as cigars, and several soldiers wearing powered exoskeletons were putting boxes of heavy ammunition belts behind the line. Moving to the front, the feet of the two powered armors that were raising their cannons to shoot into the hatch were almost buried by the bullet casings.

Like Ke Lan who was watching the video, Hroone's heart sank.

Although they gained an advantage in the first hand-to-hand encounter with biological weapons, this advantage is not obvious...the number of biological weapons that invaded the "Shaojiang Kai" battleship was about [-], and they were killed by them just now There are less than ten biological weapons in total.

This level of victory can play a role in boosting everyone's morale, but its impact on the entire battle situation is actually very small.

"Use that thing." Hruni thought for a while and said.

"What?!" Dean froze for a moment. He almost thought he had heard it wrong. "Captain, the 'thing' you mentioned refers to... a small tactical nuclear bomb? Used... inside a battleship?"

For the marines on the battleship, small tactical nuclear bombs for individual soldiers are standard weapons on the equipment list. Although there are very few occasions where this thing can be used, each marine will still be equipped with 3-4 [-] A small tactical nuclear warhead equivalent to tons of TNT.

The main heavy fire support of the marines comes from the weapons on the battleship, but sometimes it is necessary for the marines to rely on ground vehicles or trek across mountains and rivers to carry out long-distance raids beyond the attack range of the battleship. These small Tactical nuclear bombs are designed to meet the urgent needs of marines for offensive weapons in this situation.

Even if many marines do this kind of task until they retire, they may not be able to encounter it once.

But to use that very classic sentence, it is "I can live without it, but you can't live without it."

"Apart from that thing, these rapid-fire cannons should be the most powerful weapons in your hands?" Hruni looked at Dean and asked in a deep voice.

"No, no, no... There should be a few non-locking rocket launchers, a few individual anti-aircraft missiles, and a few powerful defensive grenades with an equivalent of [-] kilograms of TNT..." Dean said.

"Then can you guarantee that with these things, you can wipe out the native creatures that invaded the battleship?"

Dean fell silent.

It is true that by relying on these weapons, the biological weapons at the distance from the hatch can indeed be cleared, but after they break through the hatch, they will soon be surrounded by more biological weapons coming up... At that time, even if there are enough Explosives that can't be used in close combat, unless they can be determined to blow up their own people together.

This battle is not a positional battle or a tug-of-war, but a time-limited annihilation battle-if they can't clean up all the biological weapons of the invading battleship and repair the damaged ship before the energy shield is broken If the propeller is used, the "Shaojiang Kai" will soon fall into a deeper desperate situation, and it is only a matter of time before it crashes or not.

"However, even a small tactical nuclear bomb has a power equivalent to [-] tons of TNT. Although this equivalent is nothing compared to the main gun of a battleship, it is afraid that it will be detonated in a small space and inside a battleship..."

Dean didn't go on, but both Hruni and Ke Lan, who was watching the video, could understand what he didn't say directly.

The small tactical nuclear bomb with the equivalent of 50 tons of TNT is not very powerful, which is compared to those armed on the battleship.A small tactical nuclear bomb of this size can blast a large pit with a diameter of 300 meters and a depth of [-] meters on the open wasteland where the soil is hard and the rock formation is dug about three meters down. Even if people hide behind a bunker, they will die because their internal organs are shattered by the shock wave.

And if it is detonated inside a battleship with a small space, its power will be magnified several times.

Even Ke Lan felt that Hruni's idea was a little too crazy.

If the control is not good, they may be able to sink this "Shaojiang Kai" frigate by themselves without using the biological weapons outside.

"There is not much time left for us. Originally, this plan is a gamble. Since it is a gamble, it is better to bet all the chips!" Hrooney said with some grimness, "I don't feel the feeling of slow death at all." like!"

"Damn it, Captain...you must be crazy! Damn it, I must be crazy too!" Dean patted himself on the cheek twice, and then shouted at a marine beside him: " Bring the No. [-] equipment here!"

"Vice-captain, captain, do you really want to use this thing?" The soldier stood beside him, and he listened to all the conversations between Dean and Hruni.

"Otherwise? If you had a choice, one way to die is to take a nuclear bomb and perish with these monsters, and the other way to die is to be dragged here by them and then be buried with the crashed warship. Which one do you choose? More What's more, we don't necessarily die by the former method!" Dean patted the soldier's helmet vigorously, "Don't waste time, hurry up and execute the order!"

"Yes!" the soldier shouted sullenly, took the key that Dean handed him, turned and ran towards the equipment warehouse.

"Bridge! Are the surveillance cameras in those occupied cabins still working?" Hrouni asked, looking up at the camera in the corner of the ceiling.

"Report Captain, except for the severely damaged No.11 and No.13 cabins, the surveillance cameras in other cabins are still operating normally!" The voice of the officer who stayed on the bridge sounded through the loudspeaker.

"Project the monitoring screen in front of me!" Hruni ordered.

At the same time, the soldier who was ordered to fetch the small tactical nuclear bomb also ran over quickly carrying a metal box with several combination locks on his back.

Dean opened the metal box with his fingerprints, and took out a launcher that looked similar to an individual missile—in fact, this thing was modified from the launcher and rocket booster of an individual missile, but The warhead of the charge was replaced with a nuclear warhead.

Hroone glanced at the monitoring screen, and found that the seventh to No.11 cabins had the most biological weapons, and immediately ordered: "Set the fuze of the tactical nuclear bomb to detonate ten seconds after launch, you need to fire this nuclear bomb Can you do it in this position?"

Hrooney pointed to the position between the seventh cabin and the No.11 cabin.

"Yes." Dean nodded, "Just adjust the parameters of the propeller."

"Okay, you're ready to launch."

Dean dragged his fingers up and down the control face of the launcher a few times, and after locking the setting parameters, he carried the launcher on his shoulders, facing the crack of the hatch.

"Open all the rear hatches." Hrooney said to the bridge.

Although not all the cabin doors are on the same straight line, this small tactical nuclear bomb is different from the non-locking rocket. It can even stop at a certain position and height, and even hover briefly in the air.

"Launch!" Seeing that Dean was ready, Hrooney didn't hesitate at all.

And after the individual missile equipped with a nuclear warhead arrived at the seventh compartment, he immediately shouted: "Except for the seventh compartment to No.11 compartment, all the firewalls and hatches are closed! The third, fourth and The sixth anti-aircraft turret and the ammunition depot module are directly separated from the hull! Everyone, prepare for impact!!"

The third, fourth and sixth anti-aircraft batteries are located just above the section of the hull from the seventh cabin to the No.11 cabin. Below the anti-aircraft battery is the ammunition depot that stores a large amount of ammunition. In order to prevent these ammunition from exploding and further damage the hull, Hroone could only choose a strong man to cut off his wrist and discard this part of the module.

Fortunately, the "Shaojiang-class" frigate is armed with a modular structure, otherwise even if he wants to cut off the wrists of a strong man, he can't do it.

The five heavy-duty power armor directly stood at the front of the team in a half-kneeling posture, raising the power of the small energy shield generator to the extreme.The legs of the power armor and the fixed hooks that popped out from the footsteps were firmly nailed into the metal floor of the battleship. Originally, in the rules of using power armor, in order to prevent damage to the hull, soldiers wearing power armor were strictly prohibited from Fixed anchor hooks are used in the battleship, but at this time, no one will say anything about them.

Behind these five powered armors, there are eight folded mobile shields that have been stretched out. The soldiers equipped with exoskeletons use their bodies to push behind these eight mobile shields, fighting with their flesh and blood. A buffer layer was built.

Afterwards, the others interlocked the safety locks on their uniforms with the safety rings on the wall, held their heads in their hands, bowed their bodies slightly, and waited for the coming shock wave.

[PS Let me tell you a joke... When I checked the information today, and checked the equivalent of explosives and missiles, I planned to use the relatively well-known Patriot missile as a preliminary measurement standard. As a result, I searched for the first popular science article in Baidu Zhizhi. It came up with a sentence "Patriot missiles can be equipped with nuclear warheads, with an equivalent of 3 to 5 tons, and a killing radius of 20km"...

You must know that the "little boy" who made many acquaintances in Hiroshima back then had a yield of less than 3 tons...How can a surface-to-air missile like the Patriot be equipped with a 5-[-]-ton nuclear warhead?

I'm afraid this anti-aircraft missile is not used to deal with space battleships, is it?
The key is that the respondent is still an official with a blue V logo, although I don't know what kind of official he is...

It is recommended to be included in the selection of contemporary military blind jokes...]
