Chapter 438 Battle Situation War
Liang Fei subconsciously closed his eyes and raised his hands to block himself.
Countless chains also appeared around him, overlapping in the direction he faced the mothership.
Perhaps this could block one or two attacks from the mothership, but the ending...may not change.
Liang Fei sighed in his heart and let go of his thoughts.
Just a few seconds later, he did not feel that his chains were broken, nor did he feel that he had suffered substantial damage.
When he opened his eyes again, he found that.
The shield of the flagship he was on at this time had collapsed and restarted again, and even blocked the attack from the mechanical mothership without any damage.
The energy fluctuations of the energy restraint bomb exploded outside the shield, but failed to cause any damage to him and the flagship.
The special luster and fluctuations on the shield immediately reminded Liang Fei of something.
That is the shield linkage technology of the main battleship.
Let the main shield of the main battleship be coordinated with the shield of the middle and lower level ships at the same frequency, so that the main shield can share the firepower pressure for the lower level ships.
But the command room of the spaceship had just exploded, and the main control should have been destroyed. Even if their reinforcement main battleship arrived, it would be impossible to restart the shield of the spaceship that had lost the main control under normal circumstances.
But the facts were obviously different from what Liang Fei thought.
The flagship he was in was attacked by the mothership, and even the mothership of the mechanical family immediately pulled away after the attack and returned to the cluster of the mechanical family fleet that was rushing to the rear.
Relying on the firepower of the fleet, it launched an attack on the other side of the flagship.
Liang Fei looked at the direction of the mechanical family fleet through the gap in the hull, and then looked at Li Wei beside him.
Li Wei's wounds recovered quickly, and the fragments of the spaceship armor that pierced his body had been squeezed out by the gray-green biomass and were healing rapidly.
He reached out and used a chain to fix Liang Fei in place, to prevent Li Wei from flying around after the ship's pseudo-gravity system was shut down.
Then he released a new chain to hook the edge of the gap in the flagship's hull structure, and threw himself directly outside the flagship and landed on the top of the flagship.
The mechanical race had completely ignored the cruiser he was on at this time, and focused all their attention on the other side.
Liang Fei turned his head to look.
I saw that in the direction of the mechanical race's firepower coverage, that is, the flanks of the Odan fleet and the mechanical race fleet they ambushed, a large number of imperial ships appeared.
There was even a Conqueror-class battlecruiser among them.
"People from Xinda Company?"
In the place where Liang Fei's eyes could see, all the warships that jumped in were all ships of Xinda Company.
The structure of these ships was a bit strange.
Logically, the position of the command room should be covered by the machine's tight armor, and the armor installed here is even thicker than some frontal armor.
The armor of the command room is necessary, but there is no need for so much.
Before Liang Fei had time to think more, he heard the voice of the commander of this fleet, a female voice.
"Surviving ships, please coordinate the shield frequency immediately and connect to the friendly command system..."
"Survivors, please enter the escape pod immediately and wait for the rescue ship to capture."
Liang Fei was very surprised, but he didn't care much.
He directly hooked the gap that had just come out with the chain and prepared to go back and stuff Li Wei into the escape pod.
It's better to survive than to die here.
Liang Fei was just about to exert force, and suddenly he noticed something strange in the corner of his eye.
At the bow of his flagship, the position of the flagship command room that was still emitting thick smoke, the original explosion smoke was gradually dissipating.
It seemed that something was moving there.
Due to the perspective problem, the structure of the hull blocked Liang Fei's sight, so he couldn't see it clearly.
He hesitated for a moment, jumped up directly on the spot, and looked at the front of the spacecraft, the position of the command room.
There was no mechanical structure there at this time. Everything was covered by a mass of gray-green biomass. Countless gray-green flesh and blood were spreading along the ship structure to different positions of the spacecraft.
Let the already shaky ship be supported again.
Liang Fei looked at the direction of the new fleet again.
The ships over there were still launching these gray-green biomass in the direction of the ships that had been completely destroyed in their Odan fleet.
Although Liang Fei didn't know what it was, the familiar color and texture of the creature made him feel relieved.
He pulled the chain on his arm and pulled himself into the spacecraft.
Carrying Li Wei, whose wounds had basically healed, he ran towards the escape pod.
At the same time.
In the Fourteenth Star Region, in the laboratory of the Neuronal Connection Program.
Cheng Xinghai was lying on a facility similar to the simulated battle facility she used to use.
She wore a helmet with countless fine lines on her head, connecting her neural signals with the Zerg neurons on countless spacecraft.
The equipment nearby was densely packed, and hundreds of researchers devoted all their attention to the equipment they were responsible for.
Xu Ping was standing next to Cheng Xinghai at this time, and could clearly see the situation that the fleet controlled by Cheng Xinghai was experiencing at this time through a projection screen dozens of meters away.
This image was also projected in front of some people from the Empire and the 14th Legion, allowing them to closely follow this important experimental test.
It can also provide Cheng Xinghai with some guidance on commanding the main fleet.
Xu Ping whispered to Cheng Xinghai: "How does it feel?"
"Very good, very good."
Cheng Xinghai has never had such a feeling of commanding a ship.
Neural connection technology allows commanders on the battlefield to observe the entire battle situation from a third-person perspective, rather than being limited to the perspective of a flagship.
And the demand for commanding a larger fleet can be further reduced.
She had no experience in commanding a capital ship before.
But now she can not only command the capital ship well, but even every ship in the fleet can be used as if it were her arm, without any sense of sluggishness when orders are issued layer by layer.
Not only the feeling that Cheng Xinghai said, but also the data monitored by the equipment next to him also show the excellence of this technology.
Xu Ping also showed a satisfied smile on her face.
"Go on."
"Yeah."
In the battlefield near the Odan star field.
Under the control of Cheng Xinghai, the reinforcement fleet quickly eliminated the mechanical fleet that blocked the retreat of the Odan fleet.
A large number of Zerg neurons were launched onto the spacecraft warships with damaged control systems.
It doesn't matter if the command room exploded, she will control it.
It doesn't matter if the control panel exploded, the biological neurons will repair the spacecraft by themselves.
She continued to expand the fleet. Every spacecraft was precisely dispatched.
If there are living people, send them away in escape pods.
The spacecraft without living people was used to cover the rear and fight.
This battle is not just a rescue, but also an important test.
The laboratory needs a batch of actual combat data, even if this batch of fleets is sent out, it will not be a loss.
And this entire process of expanding and controlling the fleet did not put much pressure on her mental power.
Although Cheng Xinghai's current psychic level is only around level 4.
But the warships controlled by neuron connection technology will also give the driver a certain bonus of Zerg neuron thinking ability.
And this is just to control the operation of the spacecraft, not to completely control the spacecraft like Chen Ming, so the mental burden will naturally not be too heavy.
This is also good news for neuron connection technology.
The outcome of the battle immediately began to tilt in Cheng Xinghai's direction after her fleet joined.
Although the mechanical race was fighting with Cheng Xinghai, they were also afraid to fight at a distance and had no intention of going deeper.
The battlefield here became the Empire's fleet chasing the mechanical fleet.
But soon, the situation changed.
The mechanical race changed its previous decline and took the initiative to launch a counterattack against the Empire's fleet.
Cheng Xinghai immediately heard the reminder of the legion.
The reinforcement of the mechanical race is likely to arrive.
Cheng Xinghai knew this very well without being reminded.
But she did not change her mind about doing things. Obtaining combat data is also one of her goals.
Moreover, the fleet behind has captured all the escape pods with life signals and has begun to jump and evacuate in an organized manner.
The fleet in front no longer needs to look back, but only needs to exert its due strength.
Soon.
Two mechanical motherships led the fleet to jump and arrive.
They are all fleets coming from the neighboring star field.
Since Baiquan, who was guarding Jialuo, had been withdrawn, the excess resources would naturally be dispersed to the surrounding star fields.
The situation on the battlefield changed again.
The fleet of the Empire, like the fleet of the Mechanical Clan, resolutely executed the combat orders without fear of death.
Until all the ships of the Neuron Connection were destroyed, the screen in the laboratory went completely black.
The battle was completely over.
Ten minutes later.
The closed door of the Neuron Connection Laboratory opened.
Xu Ping and Cheng Xinghai left the laboratory.
They just happened to run into the chairman of Xinda Company, Xu Lin.
"Chairman Xu."
Cheng Xinghai and Xu Ping both took the initiative to greet Xu Lin in a friendly manner.
Cheng Xinghai knew that Xu Lin had taken the initiative to act as a matchmaker before, so he was somewhat grateful to Xu Lin.
And Xu Ping knew Xu Lin because Xinda Company funded this project.
Since the former chairman relied on various operations and his own face to repair the relationship with Chen Ming, Xinda Company has been supporting everything related to Chen Ming,
and of course the neuron connection technology in which Chen Ming was also involved was also supported.
In order to test this technology, Sinda Company provided a large number of mass-produced warships.
It is perfect to match with this Zerg neuron, which is also mass-produced.
He came here this time to personally confirm the results of this experiment.
"The actual test results are very good."
After learning the purpose of Xu Lin's visit, Xu Ping immediately gave him a reassuring guarantee: "This technology can be fully promoted."
"The Empire and the Fourteenth Legion are both paying attention to this technology, and someone should come to ask about it soon."
One day later.
The capital of the Empire.
The Minister of Psionics was looking at a star map in his office and sighing.
As the second-in-command of the Empire, he has been personally paying attention to all aspects of the war with the Mechanoids.
He knows that many tactical arrangements in many places have been successful.
But in the overall strategy of the Empire, it can be said that there is almost no change.
The tactical success did not make the strategic plan of the Empire easier to arrange.
To date, the outer ring has been completely occupied, and more than half of the outer ring has been invaded by the mechanical race.
Many star fields that were not originally the main attack direction of the mechanical race have ushered in more enemies due to the loss and retreat of nearby star fields, and can only be forced to retreat together.
In addition, the threat of the mechanical colossus has caused the Empire to consume a lot of resources to evacuate the people.
The losses in all aspects directly destroyed one-tenth of the Empire's manpower in less than two months.
The Empire can only continue to recruit troops, recruit soldiers from all over the country, and continuously transform industrial facilities and invest in military.
But no matter what, even if the Empire's technical talents are working at full capacity.
There is no way to make the Empire's technology have enough breakthroughs in a short period of time.
The technology left by the Shining Civilization alone is not enough for the Empire's fleet to have the strength to crush the Mechanical Fleet.
Not to mention that the Mechanical Fleet far exceeds the Empire in number.
The border of the empire on the star map has turned red, and the few green areas have also turned red in recent days.
The empire is being surrounded by the mechanical race.
The only good news in the short term is that the mechanical race did not continue to attack fiercely.
Instead, they chose to take root in the border of the empire and build mechanical colonies.
In the short term, the military power of the mechanical race will be delayed to a certain extent by these colonies, but once time passes and these colonies are able to produce, the subsequent attacks on the empire will be more severe...
The minister's mind subconsciously flashed the figure of Chen Ming, but the news of Chen Ming's loss of contact and the stabilized scarlet rift outside the empire forced him to turn his thoughts to other aspects.
Thinking about how to deal with the endless mechanical race.
He must think, and when necessary, he must even go out in person to try to solve these problems.
The phone in the office suddenly rang.
It was his secretary who called him.
The minister immediately picked up the phone, and the secretary's voice rang from the phone: "Minister, the test results of the neuron project are out."
The psychic minister thought for a while and asked: "Chen Ming's?"
"Yes, the results are very ideal."
"This technology has been studied since the year before last. The latest large-scale test was conducted by Cheng Xinghai as the main experimenter. Sufficient data has been obtained and can be fully applied in war."
Hearing the three words Cheng Xinghai, the minister immediately thought of something. His eyes lit up for a moment, but then quickly dimmed.
"If I remember correctly, Cheng Xinghai is a level 4 psychic, right?"
"Yes."
"Then can this technology be used in the military? Can it be widely used?"
"The person in charge said yes."
"They have a psychic researcher named He Gu who has researched how to apply this technology to the military field. It has also been tested, allowing ordinary people to control ships."
"Their theory is that the 'virtual brain' of the hive mind cluster will take the initiative to assume part of the ship's control capabilities."
"At the same time, the subconscious thinking of the human brain will share the pressure of the spacecraft's main control system. When using this technology to control the spacecraft, the number of crew members required can be reduced compared to directly arranging people on the spacecraft."
"They said that all the research data has been transferred to the Fan Chao Research Institute."
"You should receive a verification report from Fan Chao soon."
