Powerful arc energy jumped between Hoglas's fleet. The armor and shields on all the starships were like paper and could not provide any blocking effect in the face of Tianyun Lightning.
At the first encounter, Hoglas's vanguard was ruthlessly crushed by the Three-Body Fleet.
The defeat of the front-line fleet prompted the Hoglas fleet in the rear to immediately adjust the battle situation. After the first trial of fighting, they also found that the enemy this time was different from those they had encountered before.
This is a civilization that can rival them and even surpass them in some aspects.
"Report to the mother planet immediately and request support."
After making an assessment of the battlefield, Hoglas's fleet immediately shrank and distanced itself from the Trisolaran fleet.
After the analysis just now, they also found that the powerful energy weapons of the Three-Body Fleet seemed to have a little problem in range.
Sure enough, as the distance between the two sides widened further, the Three-Body Fleet also stopped further attacks on the Hoglas Fleet.
Although Tianyun Lightning is very powerful, its range is a major flaw.
After discovering that his prediction was correct, Hoglas began to test the final effective range of the Tianyun Lightning.
As the commander, Zheng Gan could see what the other party was planning without any artificial intelligence analysis, and immediately changed weapons to continue the attack.
As a large number of hatches on the starships were opened, countless rays of light lit up from the 5,000 warships of the Trisolaran fleet. Then these rays of light exploded in the universe like shotgun shells, and shot towards Hoglas's fleet like a storm.
Each of these beams of light was like a particle weapon traveling at the speed of light, and the Trisolaran team fired hundreds of thousands of such beams in an instant.
The orange-yellow light directly illuminated the battlefield in the dark universe. Through scanner analysis, the Hoglas fleet also discovered that these large amounts of rays were the same thing that attacked them after they had just entered this universe.
In other words, the Trisolaran fleet instantly launched hundreds of thousands of reinforced water droplets traveling at the speed of light as a means of attack.
These water droplets moved up and down in the universe, leaving behind graceful traces, and finally slammed heavily into the shield of the Hoglas fleet.
The water droplets that are blocked by the shield will immediately bounce off and hit another Hoglas warship. Then, within a few seconds of the previous collision, a large number of water droplets will continue to collide at the same location.
Due to the extremely fast speed, if you observe the situation on the scene with your naked eyes, you will find that you are like conducting an optical experiment. The entire Hoglas fleet is like a mirror, and the light transformed by the water droplets bounces and refracts between these mirrors.
After observation, Zheng Gan also discovered that the shield of the Hoglas fleet was a typical energy shield, which would form a uniform energy shield on the outer layer of the starship.
When a certain part of the energy shield is attacked, the hit area will consume energy to offset the attack, resulting in the energy of the attacked area being inconsistent with that of other areas.
Then the excess energy in other areas will quickly repair this area to achieve a balance in energy transmission between the overall energy shields.
That is to say, this type of energy shield cannot be broken in theory until the starship's energy supply stops.
But this is just a theory. If the frequency of external attacks is faster than the speed of energy transmission, then a gap will be created between the energy of the original injured area and the energy input from other areas.
The final result will cause the entire battleship's shield system to collapse due to the imbalance of energy.
The impact speed of the improved water droplets is definitely greater than the energy transmission speed of the energy shield of the Hoglas fleet. Therefore, under such an intensive attack, the shield of the Hoglas battleship cannot last long.
The chain of ejected water droplets also made the Hogras people realize that Zheng Gan and his men had understood the principle of their own fleet's shield. If they continued to leave it alone, within ten minutes, the fleet's shield would be completely shattered due to energy imbalance.
Immediately, the Hoglas fleet responded to the situation.
A large number of guns on the battleship began to launch a fierce attack on the rapidly moving water droplets around. At the same time, a special signal wave that could not be observed by the naked eye was emitted from Hoglas's battleship.
When this signal wave comes into contact with fast-moving water droplets, it will actually slow down the speed of the water droplets to a certain extent. Finally, as the frequency of the signal wave transmission becomes faster and faster, the speed of the water droplets will gradually be reduced to a peak value.
At this peak, the impact speed of the water droplets on the energy shield will lag behind the supply transmission speed between the energy shields, and the movement trajectory will also be captured by the turret that has been locked in place long ago.
In a flash, Zheng Gan and Hoglas conducted a more in-depth assessment of each other's strength.
"Black hole gravitational waves?"
Zheng Gan also had a little hesitation about the final method displayed by Hoglas. You know, it is much more difficult to accurately interfere with an object that reaches the speed of light than to accelerate an object to the speed of light.
The method used by the Hogras people just now was obviously applied to the field of actual combat through the study of black holes.
It is not so easy for a civilization to study and observe black holes and apply the results to the military level.
Since the water drops were no longer able to effectively contain and kill the enemy, Zheng Gan ordered all the water drops to be withdrawn.
At this time, the Hoglas fleet, which had not launched a counterattack, seemed to have seized the opportunity and immediately poured dense firepower towards the Three-Body Fleet.
Zheng Gan, who had anticipated this, ordered the fleet to retaliate immediately.
Now both sides officially embarked on the track of war, but Hoglas's fleet had always been outside the range of the Tianyun Lightning they had calculated, and never got too close to the Trisolaran fleet.
Obviously, this combat strategy that cannot quickly determine the outcome in a short period of time is just a delay.
As for why they were delaying time, Zheng Gan knew it very well. They were calling for reinforcements.
Others have reinforcements, but he doesn't. At this time, Zheng Gan also smiled slightly.
Although Hoglas's fleet was very cautious and kept a relatively safe distance, they still underestimated how terrifying the technological breakthrough of the Three-Body Fleet would be after receiving his technological guidance.
"Sky Cloud Lightning, fire."
