Chapter 1378: Encounter in the Zhenguang Galaxy (4)

The battlecruiser is a fire support weapon, longer than two space fighters, flatter overall, and has a bullet-proof shape. Due to its large size, an aircraft carrier cannot carry many of them, and they are basically deployed to the battlefield at a ratio of 70 to 80 to 1 with carrier-based aircraft.

Although Li Chengxi always seems to be able to cut the battlecruiser easily, in fact, this thing is extremely difficult for space fighters.

The battlecruiser has 10 to 16 20 to 40 mm caliber anti-aircraft guns, of which three 40 mm guns are installed on the top omnidirectional rotating turret, and the remaining 20 mm guns are installed in various corners, not omnidirectional turrets, but angle-adjustable gun drums.

This makes the battlecruiser have no firepower blind spots. As long as it wants to shoot, there will always be a gun that can be aimed at you at an angle.

And the battlecruiser also has a shield far superior to that of a space fighter. A total of one driver and two weapons officers are responsible for operating it. The disadvantage is that the speed and flexibility are relatively poor, but for space fighters, it is an iron cuckold with nowhere to bite.

The 20mm small water pipe has almost no effect on it, and even the airborne ion beam has to hit it continuously to penetrate the shield.

And the battlecruiser will not give you the opportunity to hit it continuously. The space fighters that dare to circle around the battlecruiser will become space garbage.

It's just that this thing is relatively large, and it is easy to be concentrated by the warships, and it is impossible to get close to throw void torpedoes. Otherwise, the battlefield now should be a battlecruiser bombardment, not a space fighter and a magic mecha.

Li Chengxi hit it like hitting a dog, not because the performance of the body he used was good, but because he was used to hitting it at high speed and never entangled.

This made the firepower of the battlecruiser unable to be exerted, and it was completely a target.

In short, the battlecruiser will be a sure kill against slow light vehicles, and it just so happens that the speed of the magic mecha is really not as fast as that of the space fighter.

In the Fifth Fleet's cruiser formation, not only the aircraft carriers are new recruits, but also the pilots who are added in are new recruits. They are sent directly after a week of training. This may even be their first time to drive a magic mecha in the void.

Hall has done simulation training for a long time. She was still dizzy when she first fought in actual combat. She is a professional pilot, not to mention the recruits.

In addition, they were on the battlefield for the first time, and they may be nervous. They can't even play the best flexibility of the magic mecha. Some people drive the magic mecha like driving a car, straight and left and right, and their movements are extremely stiff. Such people are excellent targets for battle cruisers.

So when the battle cruiser appeared, the friendly forces around looked like firecrackers, and they all exploded one by one.

Hall pushed the engine output to the maximum. The sharp hum and scream were transmitted from the mechanical mechanism on the back to the cockpit. With slight vibrations, Hall used rapid dodges to shoot the barrage of bullets fired by the battle cruiser.

If you record her movements and compare them, you will find that this is a 1:1 reproduction of every operation of Li Chengxi. She has trained Li Chengxi's movements into muscle memory in the virtual machine.

This is not just a simple copycat. The premise of Li Chengxi's dodge of anti-aircraft guns is that he can accurately block the shooting blind spot of each anti-aircraft gun, not just being fast or flexible.

This is actually practiced when driving an interceptor to fight bombers in the game. Without this ability, the hand-operated self-defense machine guns of bomber players are not a joke.

Li Chengxi's seemingly nonsense movements are based on observation, experience and accurate operation.

Hall's attention is getting more and more focused. She stared at the battle cruiser without distraction. The silver whirlwind danced in the barrage. It seems that every tracer bullet will hit her, but it is always just a little bit away.

Of course, Li Chengxi is not a passive player. Even in the most intense barrage, he will find a way to find a shooting window, even if it is only a fleeting opportunity.

Hall, who completely learned from Li Chengxi, also inherited his driving habits. He would fire the 40mm rapid-fire gun from time to time while flying up and down. Whether the shield would be penetrated or not was another matter, but he would definitely fire.

The people on the battlecruiser found that Hall was dodging and approaching, which made them a little panicked. The anti-aircraft guns aimed at other magic mechas also aimed at Hall.

The difficulty of the barrage increased by more than one time, and the fire dragons scattered by several tracer bullets seemed to strangle her in the rain of bullets.

But it was too late, Hall had found the angle she wanted.

With one foot on the pedal under her feet, the silver whirlwind avoided the two strangling fire nets with an exaggerated action of turning back in the air. As the body flipped, Hall came to the Achilles heel of the battlecruiser.

That is, the engine position.

When chatting with each other, pilots always said that the battlecruiser was like a deformed monster made by pulling off a few anti-aircraft cabin modules of a battleship, forcibly putting them together, and adding engines and shield generators.

This is a joke, but also a fear of it.

But the battlecruiser is not without weakness. When the silver cyclone appears on the back 5-10 degrees lower than the battlecruiser's engine, all its turrets cannot reach it.

Hall's intelligence came from Li Chengxi, and Li Chengxi actually discovered this weakness when he first saw the battlecruiser, and he was even driving the Manta shuttle at that time.

The engine is always the biggest exposed weakness of an aircraft, and attacking here will be a blast.

Without giving the battlecruiser any chance to maneuver and throw the silver cyclone out of the safety blind spot, Hall immediately picked up the 40mm rapid-fire gun and fired all the remaining bullets.

There were not many bullets left in the magazine, but the 40mm thin-shell high-explosive bomb was enough to greatly weaken the shield energy of the battlecruiser.

She didn't even change the magazine, and directly threw away the rapid-fire gun and took off the foldable 180mm howitzer behind her waist.

This gun had been used before, but the void component of the Silver Cyclone could not withstand its huge recoil. However, this time, Vilania used the parts provided by the Cyclone Federation Military to refit the Silver Cyclone. She patted her chest and guaranteed that there would be absolutely no problem.

As the Silver Cyclone pulled the trigger, the hard core armor-piercing bullet hit the weakened shield surface, and instantly penetrated the shield and hit the engine.

Hall could clearly see the engine of the battlecruiser explode, and even the scattered fragments and pipelines inside could be seen clearly.

The 180mm howitzer required manual loading and pulling of the breech block like the bolt, so Hall did not use it to make up for the knife, but took off an offensive grenade that looked like a miniature mine and threw it over, then stepped on the pedal and retreated.

It sounds ridiculous to equip the mana mecha with grenades. On the one hand, it is because the Storm Kingdom does not know what weapons are the best solution for the mana mecha. After all, the configuration of the mana mecha is completely different from that of the space fighter, and it is still in the exploratory stage.

In addition, the grenade is flexible.

It does not need to occupy the precious weapon hanging points on the mana mecha. It can be carried on any corner that is convenient, and throwing a grenade is definitely much faster than changing the magazine.

Silver Cyclone's heavy fingers pressed the switch on the grenade. This grenade will activate the detonation fuse 10 meters away from the body or three seconds later.

The battlecruiser, which lost its engine and could not move at all, was hit by the grenade. This time it was not a hard-core armor-piercing bullet that would not explode.

The explosion ignited the energy pipeline in the battlecruiser, causing a large amount of magic power to overflow, which further ignited the ammunition in the warehouse.

Almost at the same time as the grenade exploded, obvious flames and orange flashes began to emerge from the inside of the battlecruiser, and the entire battlecruiser was rapidly disintegrating.

The three escape pods flew out. The pilots were very decisive. If they had activated the ejection device a little later, they would have been buried with the battlecruiser.
