It's reasonable for me to have a two-way foil for a second-level civilization, right?

……

Lu Yongchang played back the scenes that happened on the battlefield just now over and over again.

Is this really a laser weapon?

How could it be so powerful? !

Even he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart!

'Zero, can you analyze any data? '

Rows of complex data appeared in the holographic projection.

【Professor, according to estimates, in order to cause such a huge blow to the Golden Crow battleship, the power of this laser weapon is at least ten times that of ours. 】

[Considering that it is emitted from the atmosphere of the planet, its actual power may be more exaggerated than we imagined. 】

Zero responded to Lu Yongchang's inquiry meticulously.

incredible……

Lu Yongchang sighed silently in his heart.

Humans have done a lot of research on laser weapons.

For the current human fleet, the main factor affecting the power of laser weapons is actually heat dissipation.

As the power of laser weapons increases, heat dissipation becomes an insurmountable problem.

Especially in space.

After a brief astonishment, Lu Yongchang also deduced the reason why this laser weapon is so powerful.

After the main star Proxima Centauri was hit, the internal energy was continuously stolen, and the heat emitted from its surface was also reduced.

The surface temperature of Proxima Centauri b also began to decrease continuously.

The dense atmosphere at minus tens of degrees Celsius is simply a perfect heat dissipation medium.

And land-based laser weapons set up on the surface have advantages that shipborne laser weapons and orbital laser weapons can't match-you don't have to worry about energy supply.

By mistake, the Proxima civilization has mastered a powerful weapon that can threaten the flagship of mankind in a short period of time!

……

Proxima b, Central Academy of Sciences.

Looking at the solar system fleet that stopped the offensive, Augustus gradually became complacent.

"Now, my plan is completely completed!"

While speaking, he opened his breathing hole and exhaled forcefully to express his excitement and joy.

Nartes on the side was full of doubts.

But he couldn't disobey Chief Lyle's words, so he could only ask softly in a respectful tone: "Your Excellency Augustus, what do you mean..."

Augustus glanced at Nartes.

Perhaps because he was in a good mood, Augustus did not blame him, but patiently explained.

"With 12 land-based laser cannons and a ring-planetary defense network, the solar system fleet will never dare to enter our range rashly."

"Next, this war will be delayed indefinitely."

"The longer the delay, the greater our advantage."

"After all, they are just wandering civilizations. The day when their supplies are exhausted is when we will reap the fruits of victory!"

"At that time, I will invite them to negotiate and ask them to provide us with a sufficient number of starships for our escape!"

"I believe that they will not reject this win-win outcome."

……

a week later.

"How was the test result?"

In the [Earth] command center, Lu Yongchang asked solemnly.

In order to test the power of the land-based laser weapons of the Proxima civilization, Lu Yongchang ordered to send out some [Glutton] starships that had exhausted their supply reserves as bait.

Of course, in order to confuse the enemy, they "beautified" [Glutton] a little.

At least, in appearance, it should be similar to the [Golden Crow] battleship.

Zero also played its own unique role.

In just a few days, it successfully modified more than ten [Glutton] starships.

The Proxima civilization never imagined that in the empty universe more than [-] kilometers away from its own planet, a simple starship modification factory appeared out of thin air in just a few days!

"Professor." Zero's voice sounded, "According to the test results, the Proxima civilization has a total of 12 land-based laser cannons, all of which are located near the equator of Proxima b."

"The laser cannon's effective range and power tests have also yielded results."

In the holographic projection directly in front of the command center, a series of dense data appeared.

After Lu Yongchang calculated in his heart, he frowned slightly.

"The power of this laser weapon... At present, only our flagship can resist it for a short time."

"Yes." Zero affirmed Lu Yongchang's mental calculation results, "According to the simulation test, the [Earth] can withstand three attacks on non-critical parts, and we can only resist two attacks on key parts."

Lu Yongchang shook his head slowly.

"Too little."

"In this case, we won't be able to get close to Proxima Centauri b until these 12 land-based laser cannons are resolved."

Zhao Zijie's voice sounded from the side.

"What about nuclear torpedoes?"

"Although it is in the planet's atmosphere, the power of nuclear torpedoes should be enough to deal with these 12 land-based laser cannons."

Lu Yongchang thought for a moment, then shook his head and rejected Zhao Zijie's proposal.

"Did you forget the ring planet defense network on the opposite side?"

"Different from last time, the weapons we send out need to break through the interception of the ring planet defense network first."

"Same as at the beginning, what about bombarding with electromagnetic cannons?" Fang Xu proposed a solution.

Lu Yongchang didn't speak, but pouted towards the holographic projection directly in front of him.

The above shows the balance of various materials.

When he saw that less than 10% of the projectile wrapped in the miniature nuclear bomb was left, Fang Xu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Why are there so few?!"

Lu Yongchang shrugged: "Unlike guerrilla warfare, ammunition consumption on the frontal battlefield is extremely large."

"At that time, in order to suppress the more than 5000 starships on the opposite side, everyone wished for a few more gun barrels on the starship!"

Hearing this, Fang Xu couldn't help laughing bitterly.

In retrospect, that was indeed the case.

In the fierce battlefield, everyone is on top.

"What about the remaining amount of ordinary projectiles?"

"Less than 60%." Lu Yongchang sighed.

"Let's not talk about how many shells can successfully enter the atmosphere, even if they enter the atmosphere, they may not necessarily cause a huge blow to the land-based laser cannon."

"So, unless I have certainty, I don't recommend using this batch of ammunition."

Chapter 281 Letter of persuasion?

The command center fell into silence again.

Obviously, the current battle situation has reached a stalemate.

Everyone present knew in their hearts that the longer this war dragged on, the worse it would be for mankind.

This can be seen from the surplus of various materials displayed in the holographic projection in front of him.

The disadvantages of wandering civilization are also clearly visible at this moment.

At least, when the level of civilization and technology is low, ordinary wandering civilizations cannot support an evenly matched interstellar war.

"Professor, radio communication detected from the direction of Proxima b."

Zero's voice broke the dead silence of the command center.

Lu Yongchang's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately asked: "Another meaningless communication request?"

Thanks to the Proxima Centauri dictionary deciphered a long time ago, they can decipher the communication information of the Proxima Centauri civilization without hindrance.

The Proxima Centauri civilization is naturally aware of this.

Since the war situation has entered a stalemate, they have continuously sent communication requests to human civilization, trying to have a face-to-face communication with human civilization.

Unsurprisingly, these meaningless communication requests were all rejected by Lu Yongchang.

"Not really."

To Lu Yongchang's surprise, Zero denied his guess: "Unlike the previous few times, this time, the radio they sent contained substantial information."

After the voice fell, the holographic projection screen directly in front of the command center changed quietly, and a series of Chinese characters appeared in front of everyone.

[Strange civilization, hello, we are Proxima Centauri civilization. 】

【…】

【War is not what we want, I hope we can sit down and have a good talk. 】

Lu Yongchang read the "letter to surrender" with a solemn expression.

Yes, in his opinion, the message from the Proxima civilization is a different kind of surrender letter!

The letter didn't say it clearly, but Lu Yongchang could still see from the lines how confident the Proxima civilization was in this protracted war.

"Heh... this dog R's Proxima civilization still wants us to provide them with a hundred starships?!" Zhao Zijie's eyes flashed with anger, and he said in an evil voice, "Let's have a fucking dream of Spring and Autumn!"

"Killed so many of us, and now we need to 'cede land and pay compensation'?"

"What a joke!"

As he said that, Zhao Zijie slapped the console in front of him hard, causing the holographic screen on the side to tremble.

Lv Yongchang chuckled, reached out and waved his hand in the air, and threw the letter of persuasion to the side.

"You can't say that."

"Strictly speaking, we are the invaders, and their losses in this war are much greater than ours."

Hearing this, Zhao Zijie's face suddenly became strange.

It seems...is this the case?

"Cough! Well, even if we are intruders, their demands are too much!" Zhao Zijie scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Not to mention anything else, even for those soldiers who died on the battlefield, we cannot surrender!"

Lu Yongchang didn't speak, but nodded slightly.

Surrender is impossible.

It is impossible to surrender in this life.

only……

How to fight this war next?

Lu Yongchang stretched out his hand and gently rubbed the center of his brows: "Hiss... let me think about it."

He closed his eyes slightly, thinking carefully about the current battle situation.

"Land-based laser weapons..."

"Uranium 235 surplus...hydrogen bomb...gas giant planet..."

He muttered some obscure words in his mouth.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he clapped his hands suddenly!
