This kind of operation requires considerable skills.
First of all, you must be familiar with the airspace conditions in the asteroid belt and be able to determine the trajectory of those meteorites or asteroids in the next period of time.
At least it is necessary to ensure that they will not have a violent collision in the short term, which will cause the air mines fixed on them to be detonated.
For interstellar miners like Wang Dong, this is one of the most basic compulsory courses.
If you choose an object that may collide with other celestial bodies at any time as the mining object, it is easy to have misfortune during mining.
Secondly, when fixing the space mine to the celestial body, delicate operation is required to ensure that the mass from the space mine will not cause excessive deviation of the center of gravity of the celestial body, thereby causing its orbit to change.
This is also not difficult for Wang Dong.
In addition, the premise of all this is that the opponent needs to stay in the center of the trap honestly and cannot move at will.
This point is done very well by this unidentified fire warship that carefully hides itself on a large asteroid and strictly abides by the professional ethics of lurkers.
The last and most difficult point.
In the asteroid belt, due to the complex interactions between many celestial bodies, there are numerous gravitational turbulences.
These gravitational turbulences drive the celestial bodies in the asteroid belt to perform complex movements all the time.
When the celestial environment in the airspace changes, such as a change in the volume and mass of an asteroid, the gravitational turbulence will also change accordingly.
This is what Wang Dong intends to use.
Entering the "high-speed human-computer data interaction" state provided by the auxiliary system, Wang Dong can directly use the computing power of the shipboard optical computer on the Pond.
Relying on his own experience and the computing power of the shipboard optical computer, Wang Dong carefully calculated the key position of the gravitational turbulence in the airspace where the unknown fire warship was hiding.
This is not an easy task.
Fortunately, Wang Dong does not need to calculate 100%, just a general direction is enough.
Twenty minutes later, a smile appeared at the corner of Wang Dong's mouth.
The gravitational turbulence in this airspace has a relatively obvious direction, and it is not difficult to calculate. He successfully obtained the result.
The closest key point to the asteroid where the unknown warship was hiding was found. It was a meteorite that was not too big, with a diameter of about one thousand meters.
It was also a very dense meteorite. Although it was not large in size, it had a very high mass.
The extremely high mass made it one of the key points for the formation of gravitational turbulence in this airspace.
Wang Dong commanded the Pond to approach this high-density meteorite.
Three space mines were fixed at the same time.
Unlike the many air mines arranged before, Wang Dong set a timed detonation for these three air mines.
Then, the Pond slowly pushed away from this airspace.
Ten minutes later, the timed fuse was triggered, and the three air mines exploded violently at the same time!
This high-density asteroid was instantly shattered by the explosion of the air mine and burst out in all directions.
The fragments of the asteroid collided with multiple asteroids one after another.
Its large displacement and collision created a "hole" in the original place, which immediately caused changes in the gravitational turbulence in the airspace.
Due to the compensation effect, the surrounding asteroids are affected by gravitational turbulence and begin to have a backfill effect, moving towards the original location of the high-density asteroids to fill in the space.
As the closest key point to the asteroid where the unknown warship was hiding, the direct impact of this backfill effect was that many celestial bodies in the surrounding airspace that were fixed with space mines began to compress and move towards the center.
The changes in the celestial bodies in the surrounding airspace made the captain of the unknown fire warship subconsciously start to activate the energy shield.
At the same time, the unknown fire warship began to spread Mie particles and tried to leave this chaotic airspace.
Wang Dong blinked his eyes.
Mie particles are widely used in the battles between fire warships, but they are not that cheap.
As an officially controlled military material, the production and sales of Mie particles are always in the hands of a few channels.
There is a record of the sales target of each Mie particle.
The biggest role of Mie particles is to artificially construct a complex celestial environment, which limits the detection and communication functions of the fire warship.
It is actually a waste to use Mie particles in a complex celestial environment like the asteroid belt.
Moreover, this is when no other hostile fire warships are found.
The Pond has remained in a hidden state from beginning to end, without revealing its traces.
The ability to use Mie particles so carelessly, in Wang Dong's eyes, combined with the intention of this unknown fire warship, can basically determine its source.
The response of this unknown fire warship is quite satisfactory, but Wang Dong has completed the layout of the trap with the help of the concealment effect of the Mirage system.
Just being quite satisfactory is not enough for it to escape its fate.
The Pond has long left this airspace and watched from afar.
Many meteorites and asteroids with fixed space mines began to collide with this unknown fire warship.
Due to the dispersion of Mie particles, the remote control mechanism of the space mines cannot be used, but this does not prevent the occurrence of sympathetic explosions.
The air mine that hit the unknown fire warship triggered an explosion, and the explosion of multiple space mines at close range triggered the sympathetic explosion of other space mines within a certain range.
In just a few minutes, more than twenty space mines were detonated around this unknown fire warship!
The damage caused by more than ten air mines at close range is far beyond the ability of a low-level fire warship to bear.
After the tenth space mine hit the warship's energy shield and exploded, the energy shield of this unknown fire warship was overloaded.
After losing the protection of the energy shield, the next thing to face the space mines was the armor of the warship itself.
Compared with the energy shield, the armor is weaker under the close-range explosion of the air mine.
Only one space mine is needed to cause damage to the armor at close range.
When the second air mine exploded at the location where the armor was damaged, there is a high probability of damage to the hull of the warship.
Although these space mines are attached to the small celestial bodies gathered around them, and are not distributed linearly, the close-range explosion of air mines also has a strong killing effect. After more than
a dozen space mines exploded, the unknown fire warship obviously could not hold on after losing the protection of the energy shield.
When almost all of the thirty space mines arranged by Wang Dong were detonated, the unknown fire warship, which did not even leave its name, was directly sunk by the continuous space mines.
In this case, no lifeboat on the entire warship could escape, and no one survived.
Wang Dong and the Pond waited leisurely in the distance until a period of time passed and the gravitational turbulence in this airspace re-formed a new stable state.
He then commanded the Pond to move forward and search for the wreckage left by the unknown fire warship.
