Everyone: Are mechanics weak? I wake up and rectify the natural disaster

"what?

Shouldn't we send troops? "

New Jersey was still excited, but suddenly a basin of cold water poured down on his head and face.

The little stars in his eyes instantly turned into question marks above his head.

After understanding the meaning of Su Wen's words, even the bunny ears on the hair ornament drooped down.

"Really not going out? Just a fleet is fine!"

"Now that they are fighting with each other, we can just be fishermen for once.

Send a main fleet over and take advantage of them to take advantage of them and kill the barbarians' logistics troops..."

She stretched out her hand and made a fierce gesture with her fingers pointing down.

"...Without the mobile space station and logistical supplies, no matter how strong their Titan is, are they still at the mercy of others?"

"commander?..."

Then he immediately changed his expression and looked at Su Wen pitifully.

"If you don't say anything, you won't say anything.

To be precise, it’s not coming out now. "

Su Wen touched this idiot's head to express comfort.

...Big Rabbit also learned bad things.

Acting cute and pretending to be pitiful every day makes your tea smell like tea.

It made her look like a pink and tender innocent girl.

So much so that Su Wen almost forgot about the war-mad nature of this guy.

but...

Although his hands were constantly moving, his attitude was still firm.

He didn't let up on this just because the big rabbit nuzzled him.

Su Wen had read the reports from various departments and already had some ideas in his mind.

Although it was impossible to come up with a complete response plan immediately, the general idea was sorted out.

'Khan'...

Sooner or later the Empire will have a battle with him.

But not now.

“Right now, the two conflicting forces in the Fire Reef Star Territory have not completely exhausted their energy.

The strength of 'Khan' has not been reduced to its optimal size.

Not the best time for us to take action.

What we need most right now is to quickly put all two batches of warships into service.

Before that, just watch quietly...

Don't be anxious, just wait a moment.

Most of your ideas are correct.

Between us and those barbarians, we look up but never look down.

Living so close together, sooner or later there has to be a fight between them. "

Su Wen rubbed the rabbit's head and said earnestly.

Of course he was unhappy with 'Khan'.

——There are a bunch of interstellar barbarians at the door of the house. Who can feel comfortable after seeing this?

The problem is... there is no good way to deal with them for a while.

The word 'barbarian' is often not a completely derogatory term in the interstellar world.

This situation of "barbarian conquest of civilization" is very common in the era of pre-interstellar civilization, not to mention the interstellar world.

In fact, as mentioned before, this is the natural difference between the 'Guardians of Order' and the 'Destroyer of Order'.

As destroyers, the barbarians don't have much to protect, so they don't have that many weaknesses.

When fighting against orderly civilization, he naturally has no scruples and can let go of his hands as he pleases.

This is their advantage in war.

...But on the other hand, this will also become their biggest disadvantage:

The barbarian invasion is like a fire, but it only occurs in short-term wars.

If the war continues to escalate and is dragged into a protracted war, they will lose their stamina.

"No matter how powerful they are, they are not a super civilization after all,"

Su Wen said in a relaxed tone, "As long as it is not a super civilization, it must follow the objective laws of the development of things... There are many things that can be changed regardless of how brutal or aggressive he is."

The interstellar barbarians do not have a fixed territory and do not have the weakness of "a vast territory that needs to be protected", and they are more brave and good at fighting.

But without a fixed territory, their development capabilities cannot be compared with normal civilization...

——Slow development and hesitation, this is the biggest weakness of interstellar barbarians like 'Khan'.

There are gains and there are losses, and everything is like this.

Khan swept across the Fire Reef Star Territory, his invasion was indeed like fire.

The more you fight, the braver you become, and the more you fight, the stronger you become.

It makes all the civilizations in the place where it passes are frightened.

But actually...

Many wise people can realize this.

This situation of "the more you fight, the braver you get" cannot last for long.

The barbarians are not engaged in production. Even if there is a mobile base that I don't know exactly what it looks like to provide certain production and supply capabilities... its productivity will definitely not be enough to supply the supply needs of such a huge army.

The reason why they can still maintain such a high combat effectiveness is that a large part of it is due to the plundered materials gained from conquering the planets of the Fire Reef countries and plundering them.

Without the large amount of resources brought by high-intensity plunder, they would not be able to launch such a violent offensive of "invasion like fire".

It can also be seen from the entire trajectory of the 'Khan' invasion:

At the beginning, he only sent a front fleet of no more than two hundred battleships to invade several Serb industrial centers.

Compared with the thousands of warships he currently deploys across the entire star field, this number can only be described as shabby.

The initial strength was so much, not because he didn't have any, but because he simply couldn't afford it.

There are more fleets parked in mobile bases, but there are not enough supplies to support their long-term activities.

...It’s no joke that a cannon goes off and a gold is worth ten thousand taels.

Raise a fleet of two to three hundred capital ships to supply them with short-term operations, and you can also rely on reserves of supplies.

If there were thousands of ships...

There must be a large colonial planet to supply it.

It wasn't until after the Zhilun Galaxy was captured that the 'Khan' really began to send out troops on a large scale. This was because after plundering the Zhilun Galaxy, enough supplies were captured from this industrial center that was crucial to the Serb civilization. A lot of materials and supplies.

...However, how many galaxies in the core star region can compare with Zhilun?

If Sainstuck is compared to China, then Zhilun is its Shenzhen.

It may not sound as high as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, but it is actually the backbone of a country’s productivity.

In a star system, in addition to the industrial base of Zhilun II, there are also two mineral balls that supply basic resources.

A grain production ball directly provides vital food output to the local area.

As for the energy collection stations surrounding stars, there are countless of them - the building density of their solar sails has almost caught up with the Dyson Cloud, that is to say, there is no special planning.

For the Serb civilization, this is their industrial lifeline.

Looking through the entire core star region, there are only a few industrial galaxies of this size.

In particular, in order to maintain strategic stability, Khan still adopted the invasion strategy of 'not occupying, only looting'.

Nature cannot resume production without leaving the planet intact.

It can be said that 'if you grab one, you will lose one'.

These barbarians are equivalent to consuming non-renewable resources to meet their endless supply needs... If they do this, it's okay for one or two days, one or two months, but can it still last for one or two years?

and...

"...and that's just the first drawback,"

Su Wen snorted coldly,

“Without actual control areas, there is no stable resource output, let alone farming.

...If you want to develop, how can you not farm? "

"Don't look at how awesome he is now, it's entirely because the opponent was caught off guard, and defense is worse than offense."

“Right now, except for a few unlucky ones, other civilizations and the central galaxy have withstood Khan’s attack.

In the past, their concentrated strength and breakthrough power were strong enough, but the opponent's defense was scattered, so the defense was weak...

Now most civilizations have been weakened to the point where only the capital is left, which has certainly suffered heavy losses. But this also happens to force them to concentrate the power of all civilizations to stick to one place...

It was their turn to be forced to divide their forces and be unable to attack for a long time. If the barbarians had no other things to do, they would definitely be fighting for a long time. "

If it enters a protracted war... it will be fun to watch.

Not to mention a logistical problem, it is enough to bring down this group of barbarians who are not engaged in production.

Just the inevitable escalation of war after a protracted war is enough to make them miserable.

..

Su Wen has never really regarded 'Khan' as a life and death enemy.

They don't deserve it.

Really unworthy.

This is not a healthy civilization, and it is not worth being worried about as if it were facing a powerful enemy.

What determines the outcome of a war is military power.

But if you want to develop military power, you have to rely on technological strength.

Scientific research capabilities come from industrial capabilities.

As for industrial capabilities...

One requires 'economic capabilities' including trade, transportation and other factors;

Secondly, it is necessary to ensure the 'resource supply' of various basic materials including grain, minerals and so on;

The above two points, in the final analysis.

They all rely on cultivating a large enough population to provide enough productivity...

...The development of civilization is a chain of links.

There are no shortcuts.

Even those who are closed to the outside world, such as Su Wen, are engaging in trade with Blue Star humans.

It's not that you are completely deaf to what's going on outside the window, and it doesn't count as 'interstellar social fear' in the true sense.

This also means that even Su Wen cannot bypass these links and break this iron law.

Only those who abide by these iron laws and develop step by step can we have a healthy civilization.

Only then can you have the ability to develop in all aspects.
