While Veronica was busy opening the webway, Soshyan basically did nothing but compete with those sea guards to see the tactics of the ancient empire.
The result was a bit surprising. The fighting style of these Ada is really different from those in the galaxy now. Instead, it is more like the tactics of the Legion Astartes era, which places great emphasis on frontal combat and high-intensity close combat. It seems to be more flexible than the Ada. The skill is somewhat contrary to Soshyan's opinion. In fact, in Soshyan's opinion, if there are enough troops, they will be more deadly than Ark's guerrilla warfare, because whether they are forming formations or attacking, they are extremely fast and neat, and there are still deadly attacks lurking in the shield formation. The entire formation has a very powerful strangulation ability in a narrow space. The fast swordsman and the heavy weapon hand similar to the Dark Death.
It’s just that the requirements for numbers and equipment are relatively high.
It was probably at that time that Ada's large population was able to carry out such large-scale tactics of large armies.
Of course, Soshyan also gave the young Ada a bit of Imperial Astartes shock. Originally, the Tritonians were dissatisfied with an ape becoming the Phoenix King and getting his hands on such a beautiful queen, so they really moved during the sparring session. Ge, want to make Soshyan look embarrassed.
As a result, the empty-handed Soshyan hung them all on the wall, including people and equipment, and the most amazing thing is that no one was injured.
Soshyan didn't show up much after that, only occasionally following Veronica around, and the rest of the time he was alone in deep thought.
However, Veronica did not "let go" of him, and soon a ship statistics was sent to him.
The Erdanes fleet currently has 96 warships, including 1 strategic capital ship, 7 operational capital ships, 31 tactical capital ships, and 57 non-capital ships.
The classification of battleships in the ancient empire was different from what it is now. After reading the data, Soshiyang felt that the so-called strategic capital ships had exceeded the category of battleships. They were similar to the Queen of Glory in the Great Expedition and did not belong to conventional ship types at all.
Naturally, that strategic battleship is the magical Stygian Light Butterfly that Veronica mentioned before. In a sense, it is not a battleship and is closer to the Mobile Fortress, because it is more than 60 kilometers long from side to side, and also has a length from front to back. Nearly 40 kilometers, so according to this ratio, the Blackstone Fortress seems to be larger than Soshyan expected, and it is likely that the radius exceeds 2,000 kilometers!
Thanks to Adana's unique operation method based on psychic energy and those unique auxiliary structures, they were able to pilot the battleship with a very small number of people. Otherwise, a behemoth like the Light Butterfly would not be able to operate according to the imperial standards. There are five to six million crew members and servitors who might not be able to start it.
However, there is no report on its status. It is probably because the survivors will not be able to figure it out for a while. There are only some relatively clear functions. One of them that Suoshiyang is quite concerned about is that the Dark Light Butterfly has a conversion shield that can absorb Most of the energy types attack it, which means that in naval battles, if it cannot provide firepower beyond the limit of the shield, or a very unique energy attack mode, it is almost impossible to be damaged, and there will be no ant bites. In the case of the dead elephant, the Stygian Lamp Butterfly can also mobilize the power of stars. The specific method of operation is unknown. In short, it can use stars as weapons.
As for those battle capital ships, there are a total of 3 models.
The first model is the Yuanyuan-class. This is a battleship with a rather round body shape that is not in line with the slender style of the Eldar. The overall shape is emerald color. The battleship backpack has rock-flake-like protrusions. The front and rear of the ship are Spread out with four fin-like solar sails, it looks like a giant headless sea turtle.
But its size is also remarkable, with a maximum length of more than 28 kilometers. According to the description written in the report, it is considered the oldest model of the Ada Empire. Its main function is to transport a large number of warriors to the fierce battle front line, so it pays more attention to defense. , those rock-flake-like things on the ship are a special kind of psychic crystal. With the help of a large number of spiritual masters carried on the ship, the Abyss-Swallowing Turtle can generate a powerful psychic shield that surrounds the whole body.
The shield of the swallowing turtle is different from the void shield. It not only has a defensive function, but also makes the huge warship invisible on the physical level. And the most amazing thing is that this shield can also change the volume of the warship.
At first Soshiyang thought he had seen it wrong, but the description made it very clear that the size of the Abyss-Eating Turtle can be changed. When the shield is activated, it can be manipulated to become very small, even as small as The size of an imperial frigate, but corresponding to this, a swallowing turtle can carry up to nearly five million Ada soldiers and the war weapons they use. Even if the ship is reduced, it will not have any impact on the interior.
This is beyond the scope of technology that Soshyan can understand, and is close to magic, but I have to admit that this technology is very useful in actual combat. After all, the small size can not only avoid being targeted by a large amount of enemy firepower, but can even have an unexpected effect. After all, who would have thought that such a small thing could contain five million Eldar soldiers...
Five million Eldar, Soshyan couldn't help but shudder when he thought of that scene. Hundreds or thousands of Eldar are already a big trouble for the current empire. Those millions of Eldar back then How terrible it would be.
But from another perspective, the so-called war in heaven is so terrifying and requires so many lives.
And there seems to be a mystery inside the Tunyuan Turtle. The report did not go into details, but it contained many devices that Soshiyang thought had a lot to say.
As for its armament, it is not as harmless as it looks on the outside. As a main battleship, the Abyssal Turtle is also equipped with pulse cannons, scream cannons, vortex cannons, void spears, dark light particle cannons, etc. commonly used by Ada. Its main gun is six singularity cannons. This weapon can create a quantum singularity in the physical space structure, tearing apart the target and surrounding areas with extreme gravity, similar to an artificial black hole, and is specially used to fight against the Necrontyr. Those incredibly strong battleships, especially those that have some resistance to vortex weapons.
There are a total of 3 Yuanyuan turtles, which shows its status in the ancient Aida navy, although it is already a very old model.
The second type of battle capital ship is called the Jiemie Tuo class. If the Tunyuan Tuo class is an armed transport ship, then this one is undoubtedly a heavy artillery battleship.
The body of the Destruction Turtle is much slender than that of the Yuanyan Turtle. It already has the shadow of the later Ada battleship, with a total length of nearly 35 kilometers. Its solar sail has three sides, two on the rear sides of the hull, and one on the other side. Above the tail, its crest is also dotted with rock flake-like structures. It uses a psychic shield like the Yuanyan, but it only has one main gun.
In other words, the entire behemoth revolves around just this one weapon.
That main cannon had a very resounding name, Asuryan's Angry Gaze.
The report about the specific structure of this weapon did not say anything. Maybe these remnants themselves have lost that technology. The only thing they know is the effect. Asuryan's angry gaze can fire an extremely long-range weapon, which is a mixture of physical arc and psychic energy. The entropic lightning of the arc has the power to directly penetrate the world engine of the Necrontyr's strongest fortress, and it is not a simple linear attack. This weapon is controlled by the spiritual master on the ship in the world. After the target reaches a certain distance, it instantly turns into a huge spherical lightning network, which can cover an airspace with a diameter of more than 300 kilometers. This special arc can not only ignore most shields, but also overload all electronic equipment. The incapacitation of all life forms can basically destroy a small fleet instantly.
