From black technology to super engineering

In the solar system, the Xinsong-class battleship S10 is sailing aimlessly in space at a speed of 30 kilometers per second.

This is the mission given to these commanders by the Combat Command. The purpose is to let them experience the vastness and loneliness of space travel—as future fleet commanders, their space flight experience is no better than that of a group of scientific researchers and escorts. The army is even worse than a group of businessmen who went to inspect the star... Of course, it is absolutely impossible.

Yang Wenzhi got up very early today. He walked into the command cabin at seven o'clock, and then woke up Major Olaf who was on night shift last night.

"Yang, so early?" Major Olaf is a Central European, but has a sturdy Nordic physique. He looks like a hibernating bear lying on the multifunctional chair. Seeing Yang Wenzhi enter the door, he rubbed his sleepy eyes. , glanced at the monitor screen again, and tore off the sensor attached to his wrist.

This sensor is not a multi-functional wrist watch, but a special electric shock alarm clock, the kind that can release high-voltage current - he was very worried that he would be in a dark state when he fell asleep, and he couldn't even wake up the alarm clock, so he brought a Such a thing came up. Later, when it was his turn to be on the night shift, he connected this thing to Aita, so that in case of an emergency, Aita would be able to wake him up directly.

"It's only seven o'clock..." Olaf stood up muttering, "Is breakfast ready?"

"I don't know, why don't you go and have a look, and if it's all right, bring me a cup of coffee by the way."

"okay."

After Olaf left, Yang Wenzhi also opened the captain's logbook and opened a new page.

When he saw the number of pages showing "30", he sighed silently, and then opened the tactical map.

30, which means that they have been on board for a month, and it also means...the battle for the Auriga galaxy has been fought for a month.

Or to be more precise, they were oppressed and chased by the enemy for a month.

During this month, whether it was the Ursa Minor Fleet commanded by the twelve of them, or the Auriga Fleet commanded by their colleagues at the command center, they had thoroughly implemented and executed guerrilla tactics.

But... After losing the deterrence of the ultra-long-distance weapon of rice grains, human beings' initiative has been eroded bit by bit.

There is no way, the speed of the battleship is not as fast as others, and the power of the main gun is not as strong as others. It is really only a little bit of petty harassment.

But as the distance between the two fleets continues to increase, the fighter jets dispatched on the opposite side have almost wiped out the frontline detectors released by humans. Without the assistance of the detectors, the human main guns are getting worse and worse. Having a powerful Aita for ballistic correction doesn't help either.

Of course, this is not important. The important thing is that the large-scale Auriga fleet experienced a large-scale attrition in a battle three days ago-the enemy was divided into two groups, relying on speed to form a pincer offensive, forcing The Auriga fleet fought with it, and in the end the Auriga fleet lost eight warships before it was able to escape—their result was only the destruction of two enemy destroyers.

In this way, there are only ten warships left in the Auriga fleet.

Although their Ursa Minor fleet has not lost at present—this is also due to the fact that they were far away from the beginning, and the enemy obviously did not pay much attention to their six small broken ships, but frankly speaking, in the face of the suddenly fierce enemy, the six If you really want to fight face to face with a Xinsong-class warship, you can only give it away.

Looking at the positions of the ships on both sides, Yang Wenzhi's frown became deeper and deeper.

The loss of warships is a trivial matter, but the enemy's position is clearly approaching the "38th Parallel"!

The so-called 38th line refers to a three-dimensional coordinate function with the main-sequence star of the galaxy as the origin—this is the bottom line that the headquarters issued half a month ago and must stick to! Its specific position is probably the space line between the fourth and fifth planets.

Of course, Yang Wenzhi probably knows why he set this place as the bottom line. After all, there is a base on the fourth planet where a spaceship flew out. The Asterisk has been exploring on the planet for a long time, obviously there is something worth discovering and protecting on it.

"Old Yang, good morning."

"morning."

As time passed, colleagues who got up early also came to the command cabin. Zeng Yuanhai handed Yang Wenzhi a piece of bread, leaned in front of the big screen to look at it, and then shook his head: "Don't look, we will talk about it when the troops are replenished."

"Yeah." Yang Wenzhi turned the chair around, gnawed on the bread, and then took out two eggs from the opponent's pocket.

After breakfast, everyone took their seats and prepared to hold a routine morning meeting. Unexpectedly, just when Yang Wenzhi was about to start, Aita's voice rang out.

"Commander, after receiving the instruction from the command center, we will be ready to access the video in three seconds, please prepare."

After Aita's voice fell, everyone stood up instantly almost like a conditioned reflex.

A moment later, a laser dropped from the table, and General Qin's figure appeared at the same time.

"Good morning everyone."

"Good morning, General." Yang Wenzhi said with a serious expression, and saluted the figure.

"Relax, I will announce your next phase of the mission."

Yang Wenzhi did not answer, but stared at the other party intently.

"Next, the warship you are currently on will perform a return mission, but your combat mission will not be cancelled."

"In three hours, the Andromeda Fleet, a total of 24 Eagle-class battleships, will pass through the star gate and arrive at the Auriga galaxy."

Yang Wenzhi's face did not change, but there was a hint of joy in his eyes—although 24 ships are not many, compared to the current entire Auriga battlefield, they are definitely a viable force!

"After the Andromeda fleet arrives in the Auriga galaxy, it will directly revoke its designation and merge with your current six battleships to become the new Ursa Minor fleet."

After a pause, a smile appeared on the corner of General Qin's mouth: "These thirty warships will be fully commanded by twelve of you."

In the command cabin, everyone breathed in for an instant, and after a while they shouted in unison: "Yes!"

"It's still the same sentence, you can verify all your tactics and ideas, don't feel pressure, the entire human race is standing behind you."

"yes!"

At the end of the communication, Yang Wenzhi clenched his fists and took several deep breaths before looking back at the equally excited crowd: "Thirty ships, according to the configuration of our six groups, means that each of our groups can command at the same time. Five battleships!"

"Then we can try to conduct a fire roll call!"

"It's one thing to set fire and call names, mainly rice grains! Brothers, without rice grains, my heart is empty now."

"The rice grains must not be able to make up so many at a time, right?"

"But one ship is equipped with one head office, right?"

"It's probably enough—Old Yang, can you see the armory of Andromeda now? See what weapons are on board."

Yang Wenzhi nodded quickly: "I'll take a look at the permissions right away—I need to apply."

"Well, the application has been approved."

Yang Wenzhi quickly operated on the tablet, and the projection in front showed the information of the Andromeda fleet.

These twenty-four Eagle-class warships are the second batch of fast warships built by the human space dock, and they belong to the kind that are pulled to the front line as soon as they come off the assembly line.

Taking a quick glance at the weapon system, Yang Wenzhi expressed regret on his face: "Unfortunately, there are no rice grains."

"Oh shit, what are we going to do without rice grains? Let's use conventional missiles—what's this? Fuck, tactical nuclear warheads?"

"Isn't it? Are we going to drop nuclear bombs in space?"

"It seems that it is not a nuclear warhead, but a conventional warhead."

"Conventional warheads? It's okay to play with planes... I'm afraid it's not enough to play with warships."

"Whatever, talk is better than nothing anyway!"

Amidst the crowd's chatter, Yang Wenzhi also finished the inspection. After a while, he tapped on the table lightly, and everyone gradually became quiet.

Taking a deep breath in silence, Yang Wenzhi glanced at everyone: "Everyone, don't complain, we only have this condition at present, then... let's think about how to use these thirty warships to complete the containment of the enemy .”

Yang Wenzhi very accurately summarized the current mission goal of Taiyo in the Auriga galaxy, which is "containment".

Containing the enemy, keeping the enemy out of the center line of the Auriga galaxy, and waiting for the human beings to explode, and then another wave of "reversal" is the main task of these people.

"Everyone look at the tactical star map."

Yang Wenzhi withdrew the information about the Andromeda fleet that was preparing to cross the stargate in the Triangulum galaxy, and raised the tactical star map again.

He pointed at the executor fleet that was "chasing" with only 10 battleships left, and after a few seconds of silence, he said in a deep voice: "From the communication in the past month, we can judge that the enemy's goal is very clear, which is to completely destroy us .”

"Even, I still have a feeling... that the enemy wants to play a cat-and-mouse game with us."

As Yang Wenzhi said, he raised his head and looked at the crowd: "Let's think differently, if we were the enemy fleet, and we were going to carry out a mission to destroy the target galaxy... but we encountered the same situation, what do you think we should do now? "

Everyone was slightly startled, and then fell into thought.

After a while, Smir raised his head and asked tentatively: "Use the fastest speed to destroy the human fleet blocking the front, even ignoring the warships that do not pose a threat to oneself, destroy the human beings as soon as possible and call it a day."

"Yes, it stands to reason that should be the case. But they obviously...have an intention to expel and chase our fleet. Look at the battle three days ago."

As he spoke, Yang Wenzhi recalled the star map from three days ago.

Seeing that the Auriga fleet still had 18 spots of light on the star map, everyone's expressions darkened—although there was no one on the battleship, the loss of nearly half still made people feel powerless.

"The Auriga fleet was preparing to transfer to point T, intending to harass around the side, but the enemy directly cut it in two, and almost made dumplings. And we were at point H, and we originally wanted to respond, but the opponent The main guns of eight warships have been pointing in our direction..."

"Our opponent wants to wipe out the Auriga fleet. It's just that the Auriga fleet's position is very coquettish, and they haven't fired a few shots, and they have enough energy to escape. But you see, they are actually Not in a hurry."

"Therefore, the enemy is not in a hurry to destroy humans, but wants to wipe out all human warships. Or, in the battle with humans, find out the technology of humans." Yang Wenzhi took a deep breath, and then Pursing his lips, his expression gradually became serious: "I even suspect that the enemy and our thoughts are similar..."

"what idea?"

"We are stalling for time, so why aren't they stalling for time?" Yang Wenzhi looked at the crowd and said word by word: "Don't forget, we destroyed their artificial singularity, they can still come here by way of stars! "

These words caused everyone to fall into silence at the same time.

Yes, the executor knows very little about humans, but why don't humans know about the executor?

At the very least, how big is the executor's civilization, how many warships can be put on the battlefield... Humans don't know anything about these.

After a while, Zeng Yuanhai asked lately, "Then... what shall we do?"

"Since General Qin said, we don't need to be burdened, we can try all tactics and ideas. Then we can try it." Yang Wenzhi took a deep breath again, and pointed his finger at the "38th Parallel" starfield the asteroid belt.

"When the 24 Eagle-class warships from the Andromeda Fleet arrive, we will meet in the asteroid belt."

"Then, we rely on the large asteroids in the asteroid belt as cover to ambush a wave of enemies!"

"Ambush? I'm afraid the enemy will notice the battleship as soon as it enters the galaxy?"

"Well, the ambush I'm talking about refers to...we hide the movable missiles behind the asteroid, and see if we can launch a wave of conventional missiles."

"Moreover, we can also verify whether the enemy is aiming at destroying us... or for fun."

...

Ye Ming didn't stay on the earth for long, and he returned to the moon again. After all, it is now a period of war, and he is the chief scientific advisor of the Taiyo Combat Command Center.

But since the enemy's military strength has suddenly skyrocketed, there is not much he can do, and the rest is mainly fought by Taiyo's commanders.

Commanders, you also need to grow up.

And judging from the results of the battle, the commanders have grown quite fast—when the Andromeda Fleet merged with the Ursa Minor to form the new Ursa Minor Fleet, the group of commanders who had high hopes quickly launched a beautiful "ambush" "In the battle, after destroying an enemy capital ship with a one-for-one loss, it also successfully relied on the asteroid belt to make a new round.

This can also be regarded as a chance for the Auriga fleet with only ten battleships left.

Of course, what humans lack now is time. As long as they are given a chance to breathe, humans will continue to drive warships to the front line.

As for what the frontline commanders are worried about, Ye Ming thinks it is possible, but not serious.

After all... There is no sign yet that the executor possesses a "dimension" of weapons beyond that of humans - even though the speed of human battleships and the power of the main guns are not comparable to that of humans, there is no obvious generational difference between the two sides. in the same "dimension".

The second-generation rice grains that humans are making are weapons of another dimension.

Therefore, even though Ye Ming is in the lunar Taiyue base, his job is still focused on the modular man-made singularity that he can only personally be responsible for.
