From the very beginning, Roland hadn't expected to achieve surprise with rocket fire coverage. Whether it was suicide rockets or Fi-103s, or even supersonic rockets modified to break the sound barrier using stacked engines. In front of the speed of light from lasers and the sub-light speed of particle beams, all of them were mere trifles with a combat strength of only 0.1, where even high-speed missiles and rapid-fire close-in weapons systems could easily defeat these slow-moving, predetermined path-bound, and unreliable suicidal vehicles.
Just as Li Lin had predicted, he chose long-range sniping as the axis of the entire battle. The wave-like attack that seemed to spare no expense was merely a smokescreen for the sniping, exactly like Dejir had guessed, only he hadn't expected the smokescreen to be double-layered.
