1761Are they studying how to kill people besides eating?
The imperial capital of the Yangmu Empire was attacked by ballistic missiles from the Tang Army. This news was no longer a secret to the people living in Ruosilaina, the imperial capital of the Yangmu Empire.
Although their capital was more than a thousand kilometers away from the northern border, this distance was not insurmountable for the Tang Empire's weapons arsenal.
In fact, the Ares bomber can easily cross this distance and drop bombs on the heads of the elves. However, the Tang Army considered that such a long distance could easily put the pilots in danger, so they have not yet formulated a combat plan to bomb the elven capital.
But not using bombers to carry out bombing missions does not mean that the Tang Empire cannot give its enemies some natural warnings in advance: they can also use Dongfeng Express, which can cross long distances and directly deliver warheads to the opponent.
The new navigation system, coupled with the new rocket technology, gave the Tang Empire a qualitative leap in the accuracy of ballistic missiles: missiles that originally had an error of more than 300 meters can now control the error within 150 meters.
Although this accuracy is still not enough for the Tang Empire to carry out precise beheading strikes, there is no problem in using it as a deterrent.
The five new ballistic missiles transported across the sea were somewhat experimental in nature. They spanned a distance of more than 1,700 kilometers and easily delivered their warheads to designated locations.
The power of the new warhead should not be underestimated. One shot destroyed half a block, destroyed several buildings, and shattered the glass on almost all surrounding buildings.
These five missiles landed in different neighborhoods respectively, leaving huge trauma to these places. The terrifying crater on the ground made the elf firefighters who came back to clean up the mess and the nearby residents look pale, and they said for a long time
Not a word came out.
Because the explosion was so powerful, even the water supply and drainage pipes buried deep underground were exposed. Sewage was raging at the bottom of the crater, leaving the city defense troops who came to maintain order with lingering fears.
What is even more ridiculous is that because the elven cities have developed too fast, many power supply lines are on the ground, and the telegraph poles full of wires have also been affected by the explosion. Now many areas have lost power supply.
Repairing requires a large number of professionals, professional equipment and a large number of spare wires. These things are in short supply now. The commander of the city defense army is obviously not an expert in this field. He can only stand at a loss as he looks at the chaotic scene.
over there.
The sound of air defense sirens still echoed in the sky, and the Elf fighter jets that took off desperately to intercept enemy planes were still hovering in the sky, but they did not find any target to attack. On the contrary, they could intuitively see the smoking city from the sky.
Their angle was very good, and they could see five places where smoke was coming out of the city. Soon the number of smoking places became seven, because there were fires in two places, and thick smoke was billowing out.
Yang Mu I urgently summoned the commander of the city defense army. At the same time, he also summoned Marshal Felix, who had not had time to return to the front line, and a group of ministers to inquire about the attack on the capital.
The ministers who were summoned didn't look very well, because it was the first time that they faced the risk of being attacked so directly, which made them somewhat annoyed and a little nervous.
"Marshal, will such attacks become more and more frequent?" In the conference room where the emperor had not yet arrived, the prime minister grabbed Flix, who had just entered the door, and wanted to get some information from this professional.
.
"I didn't expect humans to have weapons that can hit such a distance, Prime Minister." Marshal Flix has been commanding from the front line, and he has never seen a weapon that can hit such a distance.
But he is an industry insider after all, and he has some knowledge: "But the Tang Empire seemed to have used similar weapons when fighting Qin... So, if there are a lot of such weapons, maybe they will consider continuing
A similar attack was launched against Joselaina."
"This is really bad news, Lord Marshal." After hearing this statement, the Minister of Construction turned pale, frowned and asked Flix: "How many such weapons do you think they can have in their hands?"
"I don't think there will be too many." Flix thought for a while and replied: "They have no precedent of using this kind of weapon in large quantities, and I think that the price of an ultra-long-range weapon that can span more than 1,000 kilometers... should be
It’s not cheap, and it’s impossible for the other party to produce it in large quantities.”
"Of course, this is my speculation. I don't know what the actual situation is." Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Flix added. He didn't want to cause trouble for himself and left a note for everything.
The retreat is obviously the wiser choice.
"The fire in the city has not been completely extinguished yet. Although the air defense siren has been stopped, no one knows whether there will be subsequent attacks." A young officer wearing an air force uniform walked to the crowd and introduced the latest news.
Condition.
He is an overseas student who has been to the Tang Empire, and is a "Knowledge of the Tang Sect" who graduated from the Military Academy. Although he is not very popular on weekdays, he still showed his capable side at this time.
After all, he has received a high-level education. He has been exposed to previews of similar situations in school. At least he knows what to pay attention to now: "The speed of the missile is too fast. Even if the radar in the Imperial Capital is turned on, it cannot provide an earlier warning."
"Are you sure it was a missile attack?" Although his guess was the same as the other party's, Flix couldn't help but ask after seeing such an organized officer.
"I called several airports along the way before I came, and no witnesses saw the enemy plane passing by." The young officer used the existing methods to rule out many possibilities: "Moreover, if it is a strategic bomber of the Tang Army,
The city should be in flames now."
It is impossible for strategic bombers to only drop 5 bombs when they arrive. With the opponent's terrifying loading capacity and number of aircraft, it is easy to drop more than 500 bombs.
"Is there any way to prevent the other party from continuing to attack the imperial capital?" Unconsciously, the prime minister also subconsciously began to ask this air force staff officer who was not usually very eye-catching.
The young staff officer shook his head and regretfully answered the Prime Minister's question: "Sorry, Prime Minister, this kind of missile theoretically flies outside the atmosphere most of the time. We do not have the technology to detect and intercept it."
"Why do they have so many damn weapons? Do these Tang people study how to kill people every day besides eating?" an elf minister complained angrily.
