Chapter 512 - 511 Loss
CHAPTER 512: CHAPTER 511 LOSS
Engulfed in deep fear, initially he had great confidence in the anti-aircraft guns.
He believed that there was absolutely nothing that could penetrate the dense anti-aircraft firepower of his fleet.
But what happened before his eyes forced him to accept the fact that the anti-aircraft guns were ineffective.
Realizing that what he relied on didn’t work, this commander became completely disoriented.
In his panic, he grabbed his subordinate’s collar and incoherently asked why the anti-aircraft guns didn’t work! Why! Tell me why!
The subordinate caught by the collar found it difficult to breathe, but fortunately, the commander’s trusted aide stopped him.
The captain stopped the irrational commander and said: Their speed is too fast, quickly exceeding the range of the artillery lock; with such speed, the guns can’t aim, and they’re incredibly agile, easily dodging the shells in the air.
This captain had keen insight, quickly noticing Iron Man Armor’s advantages and clearly understanding why the anti-aircraft guns couldn’t deal with them.
But his words were of no use, merely explaining their failure without offering any meaningful advice.
Facing the humanoid armor approaching them, he didn’t offer any constructive suggestions.
It wasn’t that the captain didn’t want to come up with a solution, he just couldn’t think of anything useful at the moment.
This opponent was unlike anyone he’d faced before, so even he had no answers.
After hearing his subordinate’s words, the fleet commander didn’t show any improvement but retorted to his subordinate: "Since the anti-aircraft guns can’t deal with them, what methods do we use to block these enemies? If we don’t find a way, they’ll soon reach us!
His voice turned somewhat cold, filled with intense questioning.
Facing the commanding officer’s inquiry, the captain also found himself in a difficult position.
He didn’t know how to deal with enemies in the sky; their speed was extraordinarily fast, and they were also very agile, rendering weapons seemingly ineffective.
However, this captain had some skill and quickly came up with a feasible plan.
"Perhaps anti-aircraft missiles could handle them, since these missiles have automatic lock-on capabilities and can track fast-moving targets; as long as we can lock onto them, we’re not afraid of failing to hit."
The captain proposed using anti-aircraft missiles against Jiang Cheng and his team, which was considered a good suggestion.
The tracking function of these missiles could indeed pose some minor troubles for Iron Man Armor.
Missiles that continuously follow and alter flight paths are much harder to deal with than shells that don’t change direction.
Anti-aircraft missiles are deadly weapons against flying targets, rare is the aircraft that can evade such attacks.
After his subordinate’s reminder, the commander finally thought of the anti-aircraft missiles.
Yes! We have anti-aircraft missiles! Quickly launch the missiles and shoot those damned things down."
He immediately issued orders for all anti-aircraft missiles in the fleet to be launched.
With the commander’s orders, flames began to emerge from black holes on the deck.
As those flames grew brighter, missiles with a metallic sheen shot out from the launch silos.
The anti-aircraft missiles trailed smoke and dust, speeding towards the targets in the sky.
These missiles had already locked onto their respective targets, soon Iron Man Armor was in trouble.
The trouble stemmed from the relentless tracking feature of the missiles.
These missiles wouldn’t stop flying until they hit their target.
To deal with such anti-aircraft missiles, either speed up and outrun the missiles, causing them to lose track of their target, or keep flying with them until they run out of fuel.
But these methods aren’t usable now, which is why Iron Man Armor is in minor trouble.
The reason it’s just minor trouble is because the Blood Eagle Team’s warriors have ways to handle these missiles.
One by one, Iron Man Armors being tracked in the sky suddenly maneuvered to dodge the missiles and directed them toward the ships below.
Once they approached the ships, they’d suddenly change direction and fly away from the ships.
They dodged the ships with sudden maneuvers, but the missiles weren’t that agile.
The missiles couldn’t change direction quickly and collided directly with the ships.
Upon crashing into the military vessels, the missiles exploded violently.
Boom!
The sound of explosions quickly erupted within the fleet, black smoke appeared on the ocean surface.
The missiles initially launched at the enemy were now lured into hitting themselves.
In an instant, the United Fleet suffered significant losses, many ships severely damaged by their own missiles, some even lost combat capability altogether.
Some ships were hit by multiple missiles simultaneously, unable to withstand the impact, and began slowly sinking.
An anti-aircraft missile attack from the United Fleet resulted in massive losses to themselves.
The commander couldn’t handle the shock, blacked out and passed out.
At this point, the encounter had lasted only a brief period, but the situation was already favoring Jiang Cheng and his team.
Jiang Cheng and his team defeated the entire United Fleet in a short time.
Following the commander’s inability to withstand the pressure and passing out in the command center, the entire United Fleet fell into chaos.
The ineffectiveness of the anti-aircraft network led many warriors to despair.
After they saw the launch of anti-aircraft missiles on their side, a glimmer of hope reignited.
These warriors believed these anti-aircraft missiles could fend off the enemy’s assault.
But they couldn’t foresee that the missiles, in which they placed their hopes, not only failed to block the enemy but were used to strike themselves.
The stark contrast from hope to despair caused these less elite warriors to fall into collapse.
Furthermore, with their commander unconscious, there was no one to maintain the situation.
All the ships lost command, fighting individually under the captain’s control.
But these captains, faced with such a formidable opponent and warriors lacking fighting spirit.
Didn’t know how to continue the fight, merely watching helplessly as their side slowly slid into the abyss.
