Chapter 1575: The Ultimate Weapon
After occupying the twelfth planet of Andromeda α1024, the three major fleets of the Carbon-based Alliance began to prepare for the next offensive strategy.
A big killer jointly developed by humans, machine empires, and photosynthetic civilization can finally be pulled out.
As early as when Caesar Celatis ascended the throne of Palesi, the staff of the Human Space Army had already discussed the possibility of many possible changes in the battle situation, and made some necessary preparations.
Among them, this big killer jointly developed with Mechanical Empire and Photosynthetic Civilization is one of the preparations.
This big killer has the size of a star destroyer, but it doesn't have a curvature engine or an energy shield system, only an energy system and a weapon system.
Moreover, the weapon system has only one cannon.
To put it simply, this big killer is a movable turret the size of a star destroyer—the ultimate star destroyer.
The Ultimate Star Destroyer has a total length of five kilometers. It does not have a curvature engine, or even a power engine for sailing. It only has a power auxiliary system for adjusting the firing angle of the main gun.
There is no fire control radar system, no reconnaissance equipment, no secondary guns, no secondary weapons such as torpedoes and kinetic energy guns.
This big killer omits all the equipment that a battleship should have, and there are only two systems, the energy system and the weapon system.
In this case, all the space is used to stack weapon systems, and the ultimate star destroyer produced can imagine its power.
Since there is no curvature engine, the Ultimate Star Destroyer cannot carry out interstellar voyages, and a large transport ship is necessary for transportation.
This large transport ship does not require additional research and development. It can be used to carry the ultimate star destroyer after the dark matter reactor is modified with the D800 large transport ship of the Mechanical Empire.
Two hours after occupying the 12th planet of Andromeda α1024, a large transport ship with a length of 7,000 meters entered the Andromeda α1024 star system, passed through the Kuiper belt, and headed for the 12th planet.
...
This information was immediately captured by the Palesian civilization.
The Palesian civilization immediately launched a reconnaissance on this large transport ship.
"There must be something inside that large transport ship, check it out, check it out right away!" After seeing this large transport ship of the Mechanical Empire D800, Caesar Celatis keenly felt that there was something wrong with it.
Not long after, Mekkatorque quickly walked into the temporary headquarters of the Star Ring Space Fleet, and said, "Your Majesty, it is basically confirmed that the weapon carried on the D800 large transport ship is the ultimate star destroyer that the Carbon-based Alliance is developing."
"Do you have accurate information?" Caesar Seratis didn't expect to have an answer so soon, and felt very strange.
His reconnaissance order had just been issued.
Theoretically speaking, even if the Palesi Space Fleet dispatches a scout ship immediately, it will take at least half a day to get the scouting results.
The premise is that the reconnaissance ship can approach the D800 large transport ship.
It is actually very difficult for reconnaissance ships to approach such special targets.
Therefore, Caesar Seratis immediately thought that the source of Mekkatorque's intelligence should not be the reconnaissance results of the reconnaissance ship.
"A year ago, I obtained a piece of information from the Three-Eyed Civilization. Humans, the Machine Empire and the Photosynthetic Civilization jointly developed a weapon, which was finally named the Ultimate Star Destroyer. If you guessed correctly, the D800 large transport ship This is what is carried inside." Mekkatorque deduced the current information from the past information.
The three-eyed civilization, the mechanical empire, and the photosynthetic civilization have maintained an alliance for 50,000 years, and they have merged in many places before each other.
Therefore, there are countless ways for the three-eyed civilization to spy on the information of the mechanical empire and the photosynthetic civilization.
Humans, mechanical empires, and photosynthetic civilization jointly develop a weapon,
It is almost impossible to keep the three-eyed civilization completely secret.
After the Three Eyes Civilization rebelled, the information naturally fell into the hands of the Palesi Civilization.
Mekkatorque found useful information from the vast and complicated information a year ago, and guessed what was inside the large transport ship.
"The ultimate star destroyer, the twelfth planet... Could it be that humans want to remotely attack the star rings on the twelfth planet?" Caesar Seratis immediately thought of a whole set of possibilities.
Mekkatorque affirmed: "Humanity's plan should be this. From the perspective of shelling, the twelfth planet is indeed a good choice."
"Call the high-level meeting of the space fleet to find a way to stop humans." Caesar Celatis ordered.
half an hour later.
Palesean Civilization Andromeda α1024 Star Ring Space Fleet Temporary Command.
All the high-level military officials of the star ring gathered, and they had a basic understanding of the situation before attending the meeting.
"We have obtained some technical information about the Ultimate Star Destroyer. Judging from the data, this thing has no navigation system, no shield system, and no reconnaissance system. It is just a target that cannot move. Things like this can be easily Destroy, as long as a fleet is close to the past, this thing will not be able to escape." A senior executive of the Paleser star ring fleet said.
Under normal circumstances, the statement made by the senior executive of the Paleser fleet is not wrong.
The thing shown on the data of the Ultimate Star Destroyer is indeed a target that cannot be moved.
According to the normal tactical thinking, it only needs to send a fleet to raid the D800 large transport ship, and the transport ship can be easily sunk together with the cannon.
"If things are that simple, do you need this meeting? Since you think it's so simple, how about entrusting you with the task of raiding the D800 transport ship?" Caesar Celatis narrowed his eyes and looked at the noble faction top fleet.
The face of the high-level fleet officer suddenly froze.
If this task was given to him, he would definitely refuse.
Raiding the D800 large transport ship is just a strategy under normal circumstances.
However, the current human fleet is too powerful. For this reason, the fleet of the Palesi civilization has avoided fighting for more than a year, and they dare not go to war head-on.
Therefore, the current star ring fleet dare not leave the star ring defense system at all. Once it leaves, it will become a snack for the human fleet.
Mekkatorque took over the topic, glanced at the high-ranking member of the noble faction, and said loudly: "The purpose of this weapon developed by the Carbon-based Alliance is to destroy celestial bodies above the stellar level.
"However, due to the strength of the fleet, it is estimated that it will be difficult to realize the strategy of sending a fleet to raid..."
In fact.
He wanted to send a fleet to raid the D800 transport ship.
Also, he has the tactics to create opportunities for the raid fleet to approach the transport ships.
However, even if this raid fleet succeeds in its mission and destroys the D800 transport ship, there is no way to return, and it will definitely be torn to pieces by the encircling Carbon-based Alliance fleet.
Therefore, the raid fleet sent out can only perish together with the D800 transport ship.
In civilized wars, this kind of life-threatening mission is not uncommon, and it can often affect the direction of the battle.
Mekkatorque has been thinking about who should be sent there just now, but looking around, he found that no one of the high-level fleet present, whether it is the noble faction or the Caesar faction, is willing to take this kind of task.
Moreover, even if this ultimate star destroyer is destroyed, there may be another one.
Therefore, in the end, Mekkatorque gave up the raid plan: "I don't think any of you are willing to carry out the raid mission. In this case, we can only use conventional methods to resist the long-range strike of the ultimate star destroyer.
"Mobilize all energy systems, supply the star ring shield system, and activate the power assist system, rotate the star ring, predict the bombardment position of the ultimate star destroyer, and carry out precise defense.
"For this reason, in addition to the temporary headquarters, other departments have reduced the energy supply, and increased the energy supply of the star ring energy shield system by 70%."
After Mekkatorque made this decision, there was no high-level opposition.
Although this strategy is not the best, it will not harm the interests of any faction. At most, it will only reduce the energy supply of individual departments, which is completely within the acceptable range.
At this moment.
The Duke of Antudier questioned: "Why should we be in a defensive position, why can't we be an offensive side?"
"As I said, if the Duke is willing to send a fleet to raid the D800 transport ship, then I will do my best to create opportunities for you and ensure that you can get close to that transport ship." Mekkatorque turned his head and looked over, dissatisfied with the Duke's interruption.
"No, no, no... There is no need to send a fleet to conduct a surprise attack. Human civilization wants to strike the star ring from a long distance on the twelfth planet. Can't we? Our star ring has a super weapon across the star system, and it is the first to fire. Destroy their ultimate weapon." Duke Antudil made a suggestion.
There was a sneer in Mekkatorque's expression, and he said, "Duke Antudier, there is one thing you may have forgotten.
"Human civilization has completed the third energy revolution, and their energy system is more advanced than ours."
"So what, our stellar ring is backed by a whole star, and there is inexhaustible energy available." Duke Antudier retorted.
"Duke, I want to ask you a question, how many levels of energy do stellar energy belong to?" Mekkatorque asked a question with his eyes darkened.
Duke Antudier was a little puzzled, not understanding that he didn't ask such a mentally retarded question: "Of course it's the first level of energy."
Stellar energy is nuclear fusion energy, which is the first energy revolution in the development of civilization.
In the energy classification of advanced civilizations, the chemical energy used in the primary civilization period is not included in the hierarchy, because the energy conversion ratio is too low.
Only energy that has entered the space age will be included in the energy system.
Therefore, the first-level energy is nuclear fusion, and the second-level energy is antimatter energy.
The dark matter energy mastered by human beings is the third-level energy, which is the technology after the completion of the third energy revolution.
"So, Duke Antudier, is he going to use the first-level energy to fight against the third-level energy of human civilization? And think he can win?" Mekkatorque asked with a smile.
"But we rely on the stars and have a steady supply of energy." Duke Antudier emphasized.
"You may have made a mistake. The total amount of energy does not represent the amount of energy output..."
Mekkatorque took a deep breath and patiently explained: "The changes brought about by the third energy revolution are not only changes in the total amount of energy, but also energy conversion efficiency, energy output efficiency, and maximum power of energy.
"The stellar ring is backed by the stars, and it does have inexhaustible nuclear fusion energy, but...
"Nuclear fusion energy is only the first level of energy, and it is two levels behind the dark matter energy of human civilization.
"There is a huge gap in output efficiency and energy conversion efficiency.
"If we have enough time, we can focus more energy than the total amount of human ultimate star destroyer, but the speed at which we focus energy is definitely not as fast as human beings!
"We use stellar weapons, and it takes at least three days to complete charging, but human civilization has dark matter energy support, and maybe three hours is enough!"
After the explanation, Duke Antudier finally calmed down and did not speak again.
Immediately afterwards, Mekkatorque issued another order: "At the same time, the star ring star destroyer is preparing to store energy to destroy the twelfth planet, but under the condition that the energy defense system can withstand the attack of human civilization, the star weapon Recharge."
This order surprised the Palesi executives present for a moment.
"Three of the planets of Andromeda α1024 have been destroyed, and the other three planets are almost hollowed out in order to build star rings. If the twelfth planet is destroyed, then the star-planetary system of Andromeda α1024 will be in disorder, and the future star There will be big changes in the system." A high-ranking Paleser who studies astronomy expressed concern.
"Now it's war, and the problem of planetary system disorder will slowly appear in tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years. There is no need to think about it now. What should be considered now is how to win this battle!" Mercator Ke interrupted the senior executive's worries, and looked at Caesar Seratis with firm eyes.
Caesar Seratis said in a deep voice: "Just follow this strategy and destroy the twelfth planet."
...
Two hours later.
The D800 large transport ship entered the satellite orbit of the twelfth planet, and then opened the belly.
An ultimate Star Destroyer cannon that looks like a Star Destroyer slowly floated out of the transport ship and began to orbit the twelfth planet.
After the ultimate star destroyer entered the predetermined orbit, 360 dark matter reactors began to work and began to focus energy.
at the same time.
The stellar ring of Andromeda α1024 of the Palesean civilization started to operate, and the power assist system began to push the star ring to rotate slowly, rotating the strongest shield area of the defense system to face the direction of the twelfth planet.
Three hours later, the Ultimate Star Destroyer was fully charged and fired first.
boom!
A beam of gamma rays, like a giant pillar of Optimus, spurts out and shoots towards the stellar ring of α1024 Andromeda.
at the same time.
The star ring of Andromeda α1024 activates the energy shield system, and a solid energy shield appears, blocking the important area of the star ring.
The energy shield covered a hundred kilometers of the star ring, directly giving up most of the area.
The entire stellar ring has a width of 1,000 kilometers, but the important buildings are gathered near the center line of 100 kilometers, and the remaining 900 kilometers are all stellar energy absorption and transformation modules, which are equivalent to solar photovoltaic panels of advanced civilizations. Abandoned areas that are destroyed can be repaired after the war.
boom!
The ultimate star destroyer bombarded the energy shield of the star ring, stirring up circles of energy ripples. The energy level was so strong that it shattered the curvature of space and created circles of space ripples.
