Chapter 105 The specialty of the Marine Corps is adapting to changing circumstances

Because the Constitution has been seized, it was moved to the dock in the inner port. Unlike the outer port where ships frequently enter and leave the port, the inner port has air pressure, and the spacecraft needs to pass through a large marine airlock.

This design is to facilitate the maintenance of the ship. Because of the air, maintenance workers working in the port do not need to wear heavy space suits, which will greatly improve work efficiency.

At the same time, the presence of air also means that it will not be so simple for the spacecraft to leave the port, and it must pass through the air lock.

There is no environment more suitable for house arrest of a ship than this.

Wang Pingan directly blasted the outer wall of the dock with a missile. The moment he broke through the outer wall, the air pressure inside the port almost blew his combat boat out.

Fortunately, he was ready, and directly drove the engine to the maximum, and used the attitude control engine to counteract the shaking of the spacecraft.

His battleship rushed into the dock before the self-sealing material sealed the breach.

Then the self-sealing material rushed out to plug the breach, ending the depressurization.

Relying on the inertia of the spaceship, Wang Pingan rushed towards the Constitution.

The entire dock was full of flashing warning lights, and the siren should have sounded, but Wang Pingan couldn't hear it through the thick shell of the battleship—after all, the external detection equipment of the battleship used by the universe was not used to capture the sound.

There is no medium in the universe, and sound waves cannot propagate.

When passing the trestle next to the USS Constitution, some "staff" were blown away by the airflow from the combat boat.

Wang Pingan didn't care about these people at all, but Angeli saw that some of the people who were blown away were wearing military police uniforms.

Angeli: "You blown the military police away, pay attention to flight safety!"

"Where do you care so much?" Wang Pingan said angrily, and at the same time aimed at the No. [-] airtight hatch on the port side of the Constitution, and the electromagnetic gun fired continuously.

For all spaceships, the main armor belt is on the front, because in real space battles, the direction of the bow of the spaceship and the trajectory of the battleship are not bound, unlike some pseudo-space war works in the pre-astronautics age, The bow must be pointing in the direction of the course.

In a real space battle, theoretically, the bow of the ship can always meet the enemy, so most of the armored spaceships have the main armor belt on the front.

In addition, based on the same design idea, warships are generally designed to be relatively slender, and the projected area of ​​the bow should be reduced as much as possible in order to maximize the use of the quality of the frontal armor.

Therefore, the sides of most battleships are relatively fragile.

This is also what the space battleship means in a large-scale frontal battle: stealing sides.

The USS Constitution is just a cargo ship, and its armor mass is only 5.00% of the total mass of the ship, at least that's what it says in the registration information.

And Wang Ping'an aimed at the theoretical weak points of the armor.

The first electromagnetic gun directly smashed the outer door of the airlock, the second shot hit the outline of the outer door, and directly peeled off a large piece of shell, exposing the machine used to control the air pressure inside, and the third shot accurately Hit the inner hatch, knocking the entire hatch inside.

But that's all.

Through the optical equipment of the combat boat, Wang Pingan couldn't even see clearly the corridor inside the cabin door of the USS Constitution.

Obviously, the airlock of the USS Constitution is designed to prevent boarding. It should be a well-designed "urn city"-like structure, which can allow the defenders to massacre the enemies who jumped from the airlock.

Wang Pingan cursed, switched to plasma mode, and adjusted the plasma warm-up time to the maximum.

The moment the trigger is pulled, the plasma module ionizes the "projectile" into high-temperature plasma, and all the energy is converted into the heat of the plasma. When the warm-up time is up, the electromagnetic track projects this mass out.

At the moment of launch, Wang Ping'an's body entered a state of automatic cooling—because the body's heat capacity was already overloaded.

The high-temperature liquid tin is sprayed into the air, and has a completely different reaction from that in the universe.

The air that was heated in an instant expanded rapidly, and the hot wind formed directly pushed the direction of the battleship's flying.

The high-temperature plasma glued to the damaged airlock, immediately causing secondary disasters, and the fire blazed up.

The melted hull structure turned into dark red molten steel, floating around in the weightless air.

The USS Constitution's point defense system was activated.

Because Wang Ping'an hid in the blind spot of the Constitution's main laser, the Constitution could only launch point defenses scattered in various places to fight back against Wang Ping'an. Pediatrics.

In the normal sailing state, the Constitution will definitely start the attitude control engine, roll the hull, and use the anti-meteorite main laser to deal with Wang Ping'an.

But now the Constitution is in the port, unable to move at all.

After Wang Pingan replaced the battery, he gave him a few enthusiastic electromagnetic guns for defense, and directly destroyed the thing.

Then he turned to the airlocks on the other side, smearing his face again.

While the plasma was dissolving the hatch, Wang Ping'an's machine overheated again, but the overheating did not prevent him from firing several missiles at the hatch.

The Constitution is calling on the radio: "Stop your vandalism, we are law-abiding citizens!"

Wang Pingan found the integrated antenna of the communication system on the hull of the USS Constitution, and the missile burst sent the entire antenna away.

Lieutenant Colonel Guo of the Marine Corps was speechless, thinking about the situation in front of him.

"Let's guard around the USS Constitution with gang-jumping equipment... Could it be that..."

At this time, a staff officer suggested: "We can attack this crazy combat boat with individual missiles."

"No, we should do emergency rescue now. The Space Force is committed to saving ordinary people from fire and water." The lieutenant colonel waved his hand, "Our mission is to land on the USS Constitution and help rescue the wounded! Be prepared at any time when boarding the ship, you may feel nervous The wounded opened fire on us!"

The staff officer had an expression of "what the hell are you talking about?", but the lieutenant colonel was unmoved and continued to order: "Attention all troops, board the ship in a fighting posture, it is predicted that the USS Constitution may be partially disabled. Explosives are used for the secret cabin door, saving people is the most important thing!"

Although the lead soldier of the Marine Corps also looked confused, he still carried out the order and rushed to the burning airlock of the USS Constitution.

Their space suits are not afraid of this little flame. After all, the external high-temperature-resistant coating can even resist the irradiation of individual laser weapons.

The first marine to rush into the USS Constitution was immediately intercepted by intensive firepower. Fortunately, the armor of the marines was hard enough to allow him to hide behind the bunker.

The people on the USS Constitution were using their personal communicators to shout: "We must protect the company's property and prohibit you from boarding the ship without permission!"

Lieutenant Colonel Guo grabbed the walkie-talkie: "We are going to board the ship to rescue people. If you fire on us, you will be regarded as terrorists attacking the Space Force. Stop resisting immediately and surrender your guns."

"We refuse!"

"Hmph, you really have a problem, all Marines pay attention, we are fighting back in self-defense, whatever the firepower is."

As soon as the words fell, the individual nuclear grenade exploded inside the Constitution. The explosion was equivalent to 10 tons of TNT, and the light produced made the damaged hatch of the Constitution look like a searchlight.

The hurricane blasted from the hatch, and the two marines who were approaching the hatch were blown away.

Colonel Guo ordered by radio: "Dock control center, exhaust the entire dock, otherwise the shock wave of the bomb will be too annoying, and our battle will affect too much."

"Understood, good luck to you," Dock replied.

**
Liddy Kirk said pleasantly: "The dock has started to exhaust, and when the dock is vacuumed, it's time for us to run."

If there is air in the dock, casually breaking the outer wall of the dock may cause severe secondary damage, which may affect people who want to run away.

But if there is no air in the dock, it is tantamount to adding a layer of shackles to the Constitution.

Liddy Kirk smiled happily: "The Space Force is really a bunch of pigs who don't follow the rules!"

At this time, the tremors from a new round of explosions were transmitted through the structure of the hull.

The Space Marine Corps didn't keep their hands at all, and the nuclear grenade was just like throwing it for fun.

After all, this is a space environment, and the effects of nuclear weapons can be easily eliminated. What about radiation, etc., can be solved by discharging the irradiated air and water for washing the radiation dust into the universe.

Liddy Kirk on the walkie-talkie: "Hang on! Just wait till they suck the air out of the cabin..."

Another voice overwhelmed Liddy: "That battleship outside is destroying the engine of the spaceship!"

"What!" Liddy exclaimed, "stop him!"
