The fleet was sailing in the warp. Li Xin looked at the strange warp outside, his thoughts in a mess.
Every time he passed through the subspace, even someone as powerful as him had to be cautious.
When the fleet reaches its target location, the real universe barrier will be opened again.
The fleet arrived outside the target galaxy and began to deploy into battle formation.
The ship's hourly speed, after leaving the subspace, the frigate's speed can reach about 200,000 kilometers.
Like the high-speed frigates used for reconnaissance before, they are equipped with more engines and can reach a faster speed, about 300,000 kilometers per hour.
It would take one hour of flying at this speed to match the speed of light in one second, but this speed is enough for traveling within the galaxy.
In comparison, through the measured speed, the sailing speed of the Walker Guardian's ship is not as fast as that of the frigate.
Their ship speed is about 150,000 kilometers per hour.
The flight speed of a ship also plays a very important role in some aspects.
There is a speed difference between the two sides, which means that in the early stages of the battle, Li Xin's ships can start to sneak past the opponent's ships while the two sides are still far apart.
In space battles, ships are not very close to each other. The distance between each ship is about hundreds or even thousands of kilometers.
At this distance, ships can coordinate with each other in combat without being hit by the enemy's dense firepower, and there is still enough space to move.
As the fleet entered the interior of the galaxy, the Walker Guardian's large detection equipment also discovered the arrival of human warships.
Even though Li Xin launched a surprise attack and did not declare war, Guardian Walker understood at this moment that a battle was inevitable.
In a huge star base.
There is a Walker Guardian's mastermind node here.
At this time, through the aggregation of peripheral data, the signal lights on the main brain began to flash continuously.
A large amount of digital code is calculated within the body.
"Abnormal variable!"
"Human variable...declaration of war!"
"Purge the variables!"
Following the command of the main brain node, the armed ships that were originally stationed in the star base starport began to be activated one by one.
The ships, which originally looked like metal octagons, now flashed lights. Inside the ships, work nodes and warrior nodes began to operate one by one.
The robotic form of the Walker Guardians is not humanoid. Instead, their form is bizarre. They move mainly by relying on four mechanical legs, while the upper part of their body is made up of up to eight mechanical tentacles.
These extendable tentacles are the main means of work and combat for these Walker Guardians.
From the perspective of a robot, we can see that the Walker, an intelligent race, looks similar.
After all, humans have developed artificial intelligence machines before, and all of them were humanoid.
The Walker Guardian race is similar, referring to the form of the Creator race.
The ships of both sides began to get closer and closer. As for ship weapons, the main guns of both sides used energy weapons.
The Walker Guardian uses plasma weapons, while the frigates on Li Xin's side use laser weapons.
In comparison, the weapons of human ships are more powerful.
"The fleet advances in bombardment array!"
Li Xin gave orders in the command center, and his vehicle was still the Obedience-class destroyer.
As Li Xin's order was given, the fleet almost formed a horizontal straight line and slowly approached the enemy ships.
The enemy's ships remained in a loose state, and it was not only these armed ships that approached, but also the mining ships working in various locations within the galaxy, which swarmed in.
Compared with the more than 80 armed ships, the number of these mining ships is much larger.
However, the combat effectiveness of the mining ship is not worth mentioning. If the frigate's main gun is used to attack, the ship's weapons can almost be concentrated in one go to destroy it.
In comparison, the enemy's armed ships are much more powerful.
Although the armed ship does not use psychic shields, the energy shield is also effective in protecting against laser weapons.
To destroy an armed ship, at least seven or eight rounds of concentrated fire from ships are needed.
Battles in space cannot be ended in just a few hours. They usually last for more than ten days, and it is possible that they may even last for a month or two.
Battles that can be resolved quickly are usually those where the gap between the enemy and us is ridiculously large.
For example, if you use the main gun of a battleship to attack frigates, you may be able to penetrate several ships with one shot.
But even if several ships could be penetrated, it would be useless because there were large distances between the ships.
No matter how powerful the weapon is, it is impossible to blow up several ships at once.
Time passed by minute by minute. This was the fleet's first actual combat mission, although everyone had gained a lot of practice in driving ships and shooting meteorites as targets.
But in practical terms, everyone, including Li Xin, is still a novice in space combat.
As the fleet arrived at the shooting distance, the commanders of each weapon were ready to open fire.
Li Xin didn't let anyone wait too long and immediately gave the order: "Fire!"
"Show them some color!"
Orders were issued level by level.
"Fire!"
"Fire!"
The ship's main gun had already been charged, and as soon as Li Xin's order was given, it began firing instantly!
“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”
In the silent space, laser beams were fired from the ships, traveling across a distance of 100,000 kilometers and attacking the enemy ships.
Even if you travel 100,000 kilometers at the speed of light, it will take 0.3 seconds.
This distance is already the maximum range of the frigate. The speed of light is very fast, but it is not impossible to dodge.
However, it is very difficult to dodge, because before the attack is launched, enough calculations have been done to take the enemy's relative movement speed into account.
0.3 seconds is basically equivalent to shooting at the face for the light beam.
"boom!"
The laser beam hit the opponent's shield. Through the observation and aiming equipment, it can be seen that large ripples and dissipated energy flows flashed on the opponent's shield.
The first laser beam was blocked, but this time the concentrated fire was not just a single laser beam.
Some laser beams were dodged by the armed ships, but some could not be dodged. In the first round of attack, Li Xin's twelve frigates fought in pairs and concentrated their fire on six opposing armed ships.
The torpedo ship launched a large number of space torpedoes at one time. The purpose of these torpedoes was to block the enemy's movement routes.
