After occupying the 12th planet of α1024 Andromeda, the three major fleets of the Carbon-based Alliance began to prepare the next offensive strategy.
A big killer jointly developed by mankind, the mechanical empire, and the photosynthetic civilization can finally be pulled out.
As early as when Caesar Seratis ascended the Throne of Palerce, the Human Space Forces Staff had already discussed many possibilities for the evolution of the battle, and made some necessary preparations.
Among them, this big killer jointly developed with the mechanical empire and the photosynthetic civilization is one of the preparations.
This big killer has the size of a Star Destroyer, but it has no curvature engine and no energy shield system, only an energy system and a weapon system.
Moreover, the weapon system has only one gun.
Simply put, this big killer is a movable turret the size of a star destroyer-the ultimate star destroyer.
The Ultimate Star Destroyer has no curvature engine or even a power engine for sailing. There is only a power assist system for adjusting the firing angle of the main gun.
There is no fire control radar system, no reconnaissance equipment, no secondary artillery, and no secondary weapons such as torpedoes and kinetic cannons.
This big killer omits all the equipment that a warship 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 can be imagined for its power.
Since there is no curvature engine, the Ultimate Star Destroyer cannot carry out interstellar voyages, and must have a large transport ship responsible for transportation.
This large transport ship does not require additional research and development. It only needs to be transformed into a dark matter reactor with the D800 large transport ship of the Mechanic Empire before it can be used to carry the ultimate star destroyer.
Two hours after occupying the 12th planet of α1024 Andromeda, a 7,000-meter long transport ship entered the α1024 Andromeda star system, passed through the Kuiper Belt, and headed for the 12th planet.
...
This information was captured by the Palestine civilization for the first time.
The Palese civilization immediately launched reconnaissance on this large transport ship.
"There must be something in that large transport ship. Check it out. Check it out immediately!" After seeing this mechanical empire D800 transport ship, Caesar Seratis keenly felt that there was something wrong with it.
Before long, Mekkatork walked into the temporary headquarters of the Star Ring Space Fleet and said: "Your Majesty, it can be basically confirmed that the weapon carried on the D800 large transport ship is the ultimate star destroyer being developed by the Carbon-based Alliance."
"Is there accurate information?" Caesar Seratis didn't expect to have an answer so soon, which felt very strange.
His reconnaissance order has just been issued.
In theory, even if the Palestine Space Fleet immediately dispatched a reconnaissance ship, it would take at least half a day to detect results.
The premise is that the reconnaissance ship can approach the D800 large transport ship.
For such special targets, reconnaissance ships are actually very difficult to approach.
Therefore, Caesar Seratis immediately thought that the source of Mekkatork's intelligence should not be the result of the reconnaissance of the reconnaissance ship.
"A year ago, I obtained a piece of information from the Three-Eyed Civilization. Humans, the mechanical empire, and the photosynthetic civilization jointly developed a weapon, which was finally named the ultimate star destroyer. If you guessed it correctly, the D800 transport ship Inside, this is what was carried." Mekkatork inferred the current information from the past information.
The Three-Eyed Civilization, the mechanical empire, and the photosynthetic civilization have maintained an alliance relationship for 50,000 years, and they have merged in many places before each other.
Therefore, the Three-Eyed Civilization has countless ways to detect the intelligence of the mechanical empire and the photosynthetic civilization.
It is almost impossible for mankind, the mechanical empire, and the photosynthetic civilization to jointly develop a weapon. It is almost impossible to keep the three-eyed civilization completely secret.
After the three-eyed civilization rebelled, the intelligence naturally fell into the hands of the Palese civilization.
Mekkatorque found useful information from the vast and miscellaneous information a year ago, and guessed what was inside the large transport ship.
"Ultimate Star Destroyer, Twelfth Planet...Does humans want to strike a ring of stars on the Twelfth Planet?" Caesar Seratis immediately thought of a whole set of possibilities.
Mekkatork affirmed: "Humanity's plan should be this. From the perspective of bombardment, Planet Twelfth is indeed a good choice."
"Convene a meeting of high-level space fleet to find a way to stop mankind." Caesar Seratis ordered.
After half an hour.
Temporary headquarters of the space fleet of the Palese civilization α1024 Andromeda stellar ring.
All the high-level military officials of the Star Ring gathered and had a basic understanding of the situation before attending the meeting.
"We have obtained part of the technical information about the ultimate star destroyer. From the data point of view, this thing has no navigation system, no shield system, and no reconnaissance system. It is just a target that cannot be moved. It is easy to do something like this. Destroyed, as long as a fleet is close to the past, this thing can't escape even if it wants to." A senior of the Palese Star Ring Fleet said.
If it is under normal circumstances, the statement made by the Palleté fleet executive is not wrong.
What is shown on the data of the ultimate star destroyer is indeed an immovable target.
According to the normal tactical thinking, you only need to send a fleet to surprise the D800 large transport ship, and you can easily sink the transport ship together with the artillery.
"If things are that simple, do you need to have this meeting? Since you think it is so simple, how about entrusting you to the task of raiding the D800 transport ship?" Caesar Seratis narrowed his eyes and looked at the noble faction. High-level fleet.
The senior officer of the fleet instantly solidified his face.
If this task is given to him, he will definitely refuse.
The surprise attack on the D800 large transport ship is just a strategy under normal circumstances.
However, now the human fleet is too powerful, and for this reason the Palestine fleet has been avoiding battle for more than a year and dare not go head-to-head at all.
Therefore, the 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.
Mekkatork took the topic, glanced at the senior level of the noble faction, and said loudly: "The carbon-based alliance has developed this weapon for the purpose of destroying celestial bodies above the star level.
"However, due to the strength of the fleet, the strategy of sending a fleet raid is estimated to be difficult to achieve..."
In fact.
He wanted to send a fleet to surprise the D800 transport ship.
Moreover, he has tactics to create opportunities to bring the assault fleet close to the transport ship.
However, even if this raid fleet succeeds in its mission and destroys the D800 transport ship, it will not be able to return, and it will definitely be torn to pieces by the encircled Carbon-based Alliance fleet.
Therefore, the assault fleet sent out can only die with the D800 transport ship.
In civilized wars, this kind of life-saving mission is not uncommon, and it can often affect the direction of the battle.
Mekkatorque had been thinking about who should be sent, but when he looked around, he found that none of the high-ranking fleets present, whether it was the noble faction or the Caesar faction, was willing to take on 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 perform raid missions. If so, you can only use conventional methods to withstand the long-range strikes of the Ultimate Star Destroyer.
"All energy systems are mobilized to supply the star ring shield system, and the power assist system is activated to rotate the star ring to predict the bombing position of the ultimate star destroyer for precise defense.
"For this reason, in addition to the temporary headquarters, other departments have reduced their energy supply, pushing the energy supply of the star ring energy shield system to 70%."
After Mekkatork 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 tolerable range.
At this moment.
The Duke of Antudil questioned: "Why are we in a defensive position and why can't we be the offensive side?"
"I said, if the Duke is willing to send a fleet to attack the D800 transport ship, then I will do my best to create opportunities for you to ensure that you can get close to that transport ship." Mekkatork turned his head and looked over, dissatisfied with the Duke's interruption.
"No, no... there is no need to send a fleet to carry out 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. Their ultimate weapon is destroyed." Duke Antudir made a suggestion.
There was a sneer in Mekkatork's expression, and said: "Duke Antudir, there is one thing you may have forgotten.
"Human civilization has completed the third energy revolution, and their energy system is higher than ours."
"So what, our stellar ring is backed by a whole star, which can use endless energy." Duke Antudil retorted.
"Duke, I want to ask you a question, what level of energy does the stellar energy belong to?" Mekkatork's eyes were low and he asked a question.
The Duke of Antudil was slightly puzzled, not understanding that he did not ask such a mentally retarded question: "Of course it is the first level of energy."
Stellar energy is nuclear fusion energy and the first energy revolution in the development of civilization.
In the energy grading of higher civilizations, the chemical energy used in the primary civilization is not included in the grading system 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-quarter energy is anti-matter energy.
The dark matter energy held by human beings is the third-level energy, which is the technology after the completion of the third energy revolution.
"So, Duke Antudir, is planning to use the first-level energy to fight against the third-level energy of human civilization? And think he can win?" Mekkatork asked with a smile.
"But we are backed by stars and have a continuous supply of energy." Duke Antudir emphasized.
"You may be mistaken about one thing. The total amount of energy does not mean the amount of energy output..."
Mekkatork took a deep breath and explained patiently: "The changes brought about by the third energy revolution are not only changes in total energy, but also energy conversion efficiency, energy output efficiency, and maximum energy power.
"The stellar ring is backed by stars, and it does have inexhaustible nuclear fusion energy, but...
"Nuclear fusion energy is only the first-level energy, and it is two levels different from 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 on 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 humans!
"We use stellar weapons, it takes at least three days to complete the recharge, but human civilization is supported by dark matter energy, maybe three hours is enough.!"
After the explanation, Duke Antudir finally fell silent and did not speak any more.
Immediately afterwards, Mekkatork issued another order: "At the same time, the stellar ring star destroyer prepares for energy storage and destroys the twelfth planet. However, under the condition that the energy defense system can withstand the attack of human civilization, the stellar weapon will be used. Recharge."
This command surprised the Palerce executives present for a moment.
"Three planets in α1024 Andromeda have been destroyed, and three more planets were almost hollowed out in order to build stellar rings. If the twelfth planet is destroyed, the star-planet system of α1024 Andromeda will be disordered, and the stars in the future There will be major changes in the department." A senior Palerce researcher in astronomy raised concerns.
"Now is the issue of war and planetary system disorder. It will take tens of thousands of years, even hundreds of thousands of years, to slowly manifest itself. There is no need to think about it now. What should be considered now is how to win this battle!" Ke interrupted the high-level worry and looked at Caesar Seratis with a firm gaze.
Caesar Seratis said in a deep voice, "Just follow this strategy to destroy the twelfth planet."
...
Two hours later.
The D800 large transport ship entered the orbit of the twelfth planet, and then opened its belly.
An ultimate star destroyer that looked 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 α1024 Andromeda in the Palese civilization began to rotate, and the power assist system began to slowly rotate the stellar ring, rotating the shield area with the strongest defense system to face the twelfth planet.
Three hours later, the Ultimate Star Destroyer was charged and fired first.
boom!
A gamma ray, like the Optimus pillar, ejected and directed towards the ring of the α1024 Andromeda star.
at the same time.
The stellar ring of α1024 Andromeda activates the energy shield system, and a layer of condensed energy shield appears, blocking important areas of the stellar ring.
The energy shield covers the width of one hundred kilometers of the ring of stars, directly giving up most of the area.
The width of the entire stellar ring reaches 1,000 kilometers, but the important buildings are clustered around one hundred kilometers from the center line. The remaining 900 kilometers are the stellar energy absorption and transformation system, which is equivalent to the solar photovoltaic version of the advanced civilization. The abandoned area can be repaired after the war if it is destroyed.
boom!
The ultimate star destroyer bombarded the star ring energy shield, spurring a circle of energy ripples, and the energy level was so strong that it almost shattered space.
