Chapter 171 Strike
The Hades suddenly became panic. Captain Doolittle rushed to start the engine in panic. Hull rushed to turn on the laser interception system. All the astronauts rushed to the control table, their faces turned pale and busy. Raymond Anthony suddenly stood up from the chair, holding the pipe in his hand tightly, and his expression was like an angry lion. He never expected that the Russians would dare to launch missiles.
Hades' central computer quickly determined that there were two types of missiles launched by Starry Sky, one was the SS-25 intercontinental ballistic missile, commonly known as the "Scythe", and the other was the SS-27 intercontinental ballistic missile, which is the famous "Popular Poplar".
Both types of missiles have a range of more than 10,000 kilometers, especially the SS-27, which reaches a distance of 10,500 kilometers. The Poplar missile weighs 47 tons and is 23 meters long. It uses solid fuel and is launched with a three-stage fixed thruster. It can reach 7,320 meters per second. It is also called a "madman".
Starry Sky launched a total of 11 missiles, including 7 sickles and 4 Poplar. It accelerated to its maximum speed in a very short time. What's even more terrifying is that both of these missiles can carry powerful nuclear heads. Now Hades is only 6,000 kilometers away from Starry Sky, completely within the range of these two missiles. According to the missile's flight speed, it only takes 13 minutes to reach the location of Hades. If Hades is hit by one, then the result of waiting for everyone is the ship to be destroyed and the people are killed.
"Are the Russians crazy? Do they dare to directly destroy the Hades spacecraft?" Doolittle was covered in cold sweat and shouted loudly to start the engine immediately. However, according to the program, it takes 10 minutes to start the controllable thermonuclear fusion engine at most, and within the remaining 3 minutes, the huge Hades had to accelerate to escape at a speed that exceeded the Russian missile. This was extremely difficult.
But even so, in the face of the current situation, Doolittle still has to do this, because he cannot pin his only hope on the Hades laser interception system. If these Russian missiles all carry high-power nuclear warheads, then even if the laser interception is successful, the Russians have a way to control the missile to detonate. If the 11 nuclear warheads are detonated together, Hades will still be unable to escape the danger.
No one expected that the Russians would be so crazy. Aren’t they afraid that this incident would be transmitted back to Earth by Hades? Even if Hades was destroyed by a missile, Russia would also face revenge from the angry US government on Earth, and it would even trigger a global nuclear war.
By then, nuclear war will destroy the world. So what if Star Sky gets the Pluto alien base? Losing Earth civilization, Star Sky is equivalent to an orphan wandering in the universe. No matter how advanced technology is, it cannot save all this. Anyone with some brains will never do this. Why do the Russians of Star Sky dare to do this?
Not only is Doolittle unable to understand this problem, but Raymond Anthony cannot understand it. At this moment, even if Raymond Anthony has wealth and power in the world, he can only pray for God to appear.
The unwillingness in my heart and anger made Raymond Anthony roar: "We also launch missiles! I ordered all the weapons to be launched, wanting me to go to hell? Then let's go to hell together!"
The weapons carried by Hades are no less than those of the Starry Sky. To some extent, Hades's force is stronger than that of the Starry Sky. For a time, Raymond, who was almost unreasonable, decided to die with the Russians. As he said, even if he went to hell, he would drag the other party together.
"Missile! Missiles are not coming to us! They are not coming to us!" As soon as Raymond Anthony finished speaking, Hull shouted in a very surprised voice.
"What? What did you say?" Raymond Anthony was stunned and asked urgently.
"The Russian missiles turned! Look! The Russian missiles turned! My God, they...their target is Pluto, the alien base of Pluto!"
He opened the surveillance image in a hurry. It can be clearly seen from the large screen on the front that the 11 missiles launched by Starry Sky flew for a distance in the air towards Hades and began to turn, and its target flew at high speed towards the alien base of Pluto, as Hull said.
"call……."
When everyone on the Hades was relieved when they saw this image. At the same time, they felt a sense of joy of escaping. Dulite, who was slumped in the seat, only felt his heart beating violently and his whole body was exhausted. In just a short moment, Dulite even thought that his life was about to end, but when he saw the Russian missile turn, he found that the clothes on his back were all wet with sweat.
"captain?"
"What's up?"
"Do you want to stop the engine starting?"
"No!" Doolittle replied decisively: "Continue to start the engine, these damn madmen, God knows what else they will do, continue to start! We must ensure our own safety."
Dulite's decision was wise in everyone's opinion, and these crazy Russians simply could not understand it. At this time, Raymond Anthony, who had come back to his senses, suddenly remembered something. The Russians' missile target was not them, but Pluto's alien base. Could it be that the Russians wanted to destroy the entire base? Although he knew that Pluto's base had a powerful defense system, he also knew how powerful the missiles launched by the Russians were. For a moment, he felt a little uneasy, staring at the holographic images, and waiting quietly for what would happen.
"Hahaha, I think the Americans must have been scared to pee their pants." On the Starry Sky, the Russian astronauts were overjoyed. A few guys even excitedly flipped in the weightless cabin. That's right, the target of the Starry Sky missile was not Hades at the beginning, and they were not crazy. The Russians knew that it was meaningless to use missiles to strike Hades, and it might even lead to a loss-making result.
Ivan issued an order to directly attack Pluto's alien base. In order to ensure the effect of the strike, Starry Sky launched nearly half of the missiles in one breath. At the same time, when launching the missile, Starry Sky deliberately controlled the missile to fly a distance in the direction of Hades, and then calculated the time to adjust the target before the Americans launched the counterattack. This was to scare the Americans and show the opponent the powerful "muscles" of Starry Sky to the opponent. In Ivan's words, this is extremely necessary. Only when the Americans see the powerful force that Starry Sky has, can the other party learn to "respect" themselves.
Ivan's decision to directly attack Pluto's alien base with missiles. It seems a bit rough from the surface, but Ivan doesn't think so at all. Pluto's alien base is definitely not simple. This is the result of judgment. Otherwise, the Americans would have obtained this base long ago. Since that is the case, directly use missiles as a means of attack. First, see what defense measures this alien base has. Second, once the attack is successful, even if the alien base is destroyed, the Star Sky will have the possibility of direct landing.
As for how much profit can be obtained after the destruction of the alien base, Ivan thinks it is not a problem at all. Compared to a piece of meat that cannot be eaten, it is better to rush up and smash it and grab a bone. In Chinese terms, it is better to describe it as a hundred birds in the forest than a bird in the hands.
11 missiles, of which 4 of them carry powerful nuclear warheads, and they strike a target at the same time, and their destructiveness can be imagined. If it is launched on Earth, it will destroy a huge area in an instant, and in this area, whether it is a city or a surrounding village or town, it will be completely erased.
The 11 missiles that adjusted the flight direction quickly entered Pluto's thin atmosphere. Due to the attraction of Pluto, the speed of these missiles began to get faster and faster. According to computer calculations, they would hit the target in more than ten seconds. At this time, whether it was the people on Starry Sky or the crew of Hades, everyone held their breath.
