How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 210 Stellar Strategy

Gentlemen, the matter of seeds is only one of the important issues discussed today. Next, let's discuss the main topic of this meeting. For those alien enemies, how should the empire fight this war? How can our empire win?

The Führer's serious voice echoed in the meeting room.

The empire has never fought wars with other alien civilizations. Although for so many years, aliens have been used as imaginary enemies to organize fleets to act, however, that is just a fleet divided into two groups with the same equipment, technology, tactics, and strategy mirror acting.

The head of state, who has been watching fleet performances all year round, can deduce which fleet will win in the exercise, what tactics will be used to win, and who and which warship will play an important role in the exercise just by looking at the staffing and assembly of warships. , he can guess it.

But now... the head of state is a little confused. This is not a drill, but an actual combat. The opponent is an alien enemy whose body and tactical thinking are completely different from the Serenes. The military knowledge in the past seems to have become useless garbage.

We have discussed this issue in private, but none of them can effectively guarantee the 'victory of the empire'. Until Your Excellency Neil's explanation of the sub-light speed navigation plan just now, we finally have a clue.

For the convenience of explanation, General Mopusch swiped the table with his fingertips, and the projection of the star system where the empire was located was presented in front of everyone.

This is our star system. According to the battle reports from the Fourth Fleet, even the strongest ground combat body of the empire cannot achieve partial victory on the ground with the support of the fleet's air firepower. The colony has lost all delusions.

Führer, if the empire wants to win, it must destroy the colonial star.

Having said that, all the generals turned their attention to the head of state, asking for his approval.

After not thinking for a long time, the generals heard the answer from the head of state.

A livable planet dominated by the enemy, even if it is a paradise, is of no value to the empire, but a disaster.

It was approved in a disguised form, and Mopusch continued the speech just now.

Even if the strategic goal is to destroy the colonial planet, this is not an easy task. In order to completely wipe out the planet and even the enemies inside the planet, the Imperial Fleet needs to use a lot of sonic explosions.

The distance of the sonic boom can't be too far, it will give the enemy enough time to intercept it, if the distance can be too close, it will inevitably suffer the enemy's sub-light speed attack, and also consider the consumption of food supply, life support system, Replacement of spare parts, etc., without the mothership class as a transport logistics unit, various types of warships need to sacrifice a lot of load, and at the same time, the mental pressure of the crew will also increase...

And what about the enemy? They have the material resources of an entire planet, and it can even be understood as a planet-level mothership. Obviously, the feasibility value of the empire organizing a fleet to counterattack the colonial star is not high. The empire needs A whole new strategic way to wipe the enemy and that planet out of this star system.

According to Mopusch's description, there are many warships in the projection, the number is as high as 100,000, but there is no mothership class. This fleet is attacking the colonial star, but the enemy's sub-light speed shells have no time to dodge, and soon one after another They were destroyed one after another, until the entire army was annihilated, only sporadic sonic booms hit the target, and most of the sonic booms were intercepted, not enough to cause serious damage.

This is the result of computer calculations and simulations. Cosmic wars are no different than land battles. Literal data has more reference value. In such a large-scale battlefield, the fight is about equipment technology and tactical use. There will never be a morale increase. The situation that immediately reversed from the disadvantage.

The head of state and the scientific chiefs did not speak, but quietly waited for the generals' next words.

Just now, the sub-light speed navigation plan proposed by His Excellency Neil used a large focusing lens to gather light to form a pulse beam to accelerate the projectile. This gave us an inspiration. Why do we have to be obsessed with sending fleets to attack colonial stars? In the final analysis, it is enough to destroy the colonial planet.”

We only need to create a sufficiently large focusing lens. Wouldn't the enemies and the planets they occupy be directly vaporized under the ultra-high-energy pulse beam? We named this plan 'Stellar Strategy'.

The Führer looked at the focusing lens covering half of the star shown in the projection, and replied.

Leaving aside the feasibility of manufacturing, the enemy cannot see such a large thing. The intention is too obvious, and they will definitely stop it.

Yes, we are also very clear about this, but how do they stop them? Are they coming with a colony star? Obviously it can't be done, it's a planet, if it can be done, they won't be frozen in the first place.

The generals are extremely confident in their plan, because as long as such a focusing lens is established, there is nothing in the entire star system that cannot be destroyed.

The science chiefs were discussing the shocking ideas put forward by the generals in whispers. The plan for the empire's victory is already in place, and now it is not feasible.

This is undoubtedly a very challenging physics subject. The electromagnetic force has been weakened to a very weak level for planetary-scale objects alone. Planets rely on gravity to gather together. If the planetary-scale electromagnetic force is still strong, then the universe There will be planets of any shape imaginable.

However, this is the basic law of the universe. The electromagnetic force at the scale of planets is so weak that it is almost negligible, let alone at the scale of stars. It relies on gravity and nuclear explosions to maintain its shape, which has nothing to do with electromagnetic force.

Prince, we don't have the technology to achieve 100% of this strategic plan, but there is still no problem with more than 90%.

Ninety percent?

The head of state looked at the scientific chief who was speaking suspiciously, not quite understanding what the other party meant by more than 90 percent.

The science chief explained.

To achieve stellar-scale architecture is a fantasy myth for the current empire. The huge stress and gravity of the structure, as well as the shear force caused by different latitudes, etc., many factors doom us to build There is no such huge object.

But there is a compromise. We can create many small lenses, arrange them in the orbit of stars, and combine them into a similar focusing lens, covering half of the star cluster array, although it is not as good as the one hundred percent in the projection. Focusing the light, but more than 90% of the pulse power can still be guaranteed.
