The Federation is really underwhelmed!

Two days later, on the search and rescue ship, Wu Xiaoqing and Shen Changwen couldn't help but sigh again when they saw the latest battle progress transmitted from Yevgeny.

Although the search and rescue team did not express a clear attitude to the Zhiti, the Zhiti side was very cooperative, allowing Yevgeny to report on the progress of the entire campaign at any time, as if they had been treated as allies.

Although they feel comfortable with this kind of intellectual and physical practice, they can't help but be vigilant - after all, it represents an entire civilization.

The fleet of the Mind Body has already begun to move, starting from the planet that Yevgeny visited before, that is, the outermost planet of the Federation Solar System, to the fourteenth planet at a slow marching speed, mobilizing more than three billion fleets. This order of magnitude is already unimaginable for earthlings. The search and rescue team now does not need to look at Yevgeny's report, but only uses optical instruments to look at the starry sky, and they can clearly detect the existence of the fleet.

In the starry sky, the new fleet resembles a diamond necklace that appears around the outermost layer of the solar system, sparkling against a black cosmic background. According to the analysis of the search and rescue team, when the entire fleet began to act, it even caused a considerable degree of disturbance to the existing orbits of other planets.

Such a huge military operation, the federal side is obviously also noticing, and similarly, the search and rescue team can see that from the dozen or so planets in the inner solar system, a large number of observable points began to appear in the middle of each one, and began to gradually move in the direction of the outer solar system.

Compared with the huge fleet of the intelligent body, the fleet of the Federation this time is undoubtedly much smaller, not only the number of light spots, but also the density and acceleration - the latter often means the size of the mass.

Although fewer troops have been mobilized, in terms of the analysis of the search and rescue team, the federal side actually has a considerable advantage.

The most important of these is that the target of the Wisdom Fleet's attack this time, that is, Planet 13, which the Federation calls Blackstar, has basically been completely fortified. The entire planet is essentially a huge cantonment station.

The game materials transmitted by Wu Qing have fully revealed the logic of the war between the Federation and the Mind Body to a large extent.

In galactic warfare, in addition to the number of fleets, the other most important element for both sides is the gravitational point under their control.

Although all fleets are designed to sail in a galactic environment, from the starry sky, each warship looks like a speck of dust in the galaxy, floating freely around.

But after understanding the details, you will know that in space, the most lacking thing for all objects is spatial freedom.

In space, the spacecraft needs to consume energy for any action, including the most basic acceleration, deceleration, deceleration, and dodging...... Because of the huge mass of the spaceship itself, the energy consumed by any subtle tactical action is quite staggering.

The vast area of space, as well as the enemy's possible mine-laying and sneak attacks, make the burden of energy even more stretched.

Shen Changwen made a simple calculation, an ordinary attack ship to accelerate it from an ordinary stationary state to the basic third cosmic speed - just to be able to break away from the gravitational pull of the planet, the total energy required is almost as high as the electricity consumption of an entire urban area on the earth. And there are more than 30 billion such spaceships.

This is only the minimum consumption of the march, if the enemy encounters the necessary tactical maneuver, the instantaneous power of any warship is probably more than the instantaneous power of the total power generation efficiency of any country on the earth. - Even if you take all the energy on Earth to support the aliens in the fight, you can't fully control any of these ships.

There are two standard energy sources used by the Mind and the Federation, the first is the extracted fusion fuel, which can be converted into universal electricity through a fusion furnace. The second type is antimatter, which, through annihilation reactions, can form ultra-high instantaneous currents in a short period of time.

In the actual use process, the two complement each other, the former mainly provides the basic energy security of the aircraft forever, similar to the internal energy use, and the consumption of the weapon system, and the latter is temporary use - the use limit is naturally the highest.

Even with the level of civilization of the Federation and the Mind Body, the energy source of antimatter is not fully mature—the Ascension Realm they have spent in before is a typical example of the maturity of antimatter technology—antimatter fuel can be stored and stored very conveniently. But in the Federal Army, each ship has a finite amount of anti-object mass - this limited precious energy is mainly used by pilots to temporarily maneuver to escape in case of danger.

Therefore, for the time being, the two sides are still strategically only moving at the speed of traditional power.

After 54 hours of action, the vanguard finally arrived at the Long Star, and began to build a battle line with the Long Star as its station.

On several occasions, the Federation's reconnaissance fleet attempted to overrun the forward forces of the Intelligence, disrupting the entire Intelligence's march.

Their actions did not have much effect - although the mass of the longstar is much less than that of the thirteenth black star - the longstar is essentially an artificial planet formed by "artificial landfill" and is not counted in the category of 15 planets. But it's always much more massive than an ordinary ship. Although there is still a considerable distance to be achieved from the formation of a stable gravity, the effect of providing a home station for the strikers and establishing a home advantage is always there.

As more and more fleets settle in, between the long star and the huge orbit of the fifteenth planet, the fleet begins to form a long cantilever consisting of more than 30 billion search ships, starting from the planet they set off from and ending with the final long star. The search and rescue team roughly calculated the speed of the fleet—it would take two months or more to get the entire fleet to the long star at the current speed.

But the skiolling battle has already begun in the outer orbital layer of the Black Star.

In order to observe the battle, the search and rescue team took the initiative to drive the search and rescue ship out of the far side of the planet and placed it on the side of the battlefield, which was farther away from both sides, perpendicular to the ecliptic plane of the galaxy.

The Federation's ships no longer shoot when they see them as before, and apparently, now the Federation Fleet's more attention has been drawn to the Mind Fleet.

As the skirmishes of the Zhiti fleet in the outer layer began, Wu Xiaoqing noticed a very interesting phenomenon - the entire Black Star began to become lively, and countless spaceships could be seen flying out of it almost every day, but these ships did not seem to go to the front line to fight, but only stayed in orbit for a period of time, and then returned to the interior of the Black Star again.

The search and rescue team soon discovered that these ships were not actually combat ships, they were just ordinary transport ships, and what they were transporting was the mass of the Black Star itself.

This is how humans learn to be intellectually in war - the Federation has apparently realized that this war may be bad for them, so they have now begun to build speed bumps.

The appearance of speed bumps made the fleet of the intelligent body begin to become cautious, and the frequent temptations that used to occur every day began to decrease, but the speed of the rear fleet towards the front line seemed to have been slightly improved.

……

While the search and rescue team kept an eye on the battle, the entire federation, everyone who knew about the game of the solar system, was also expressing strong concern.

The federal government has set up thousands of dedicated live footage on the front lines dedicated to the war on the front lines, all of which are completely open to federal citizens — they can stay up to date online.

When they saw the Federation people making speed bumps, Wu Qing and Shen Wen couldn't help but glance at each other.

To a large extent, this can almost be said to be the conceiting of the federal army.

Speed bumps are based on the principle of artificially creating large quantities of high-intensity particulate dust, which are scattered in orbital space in the hope of causing damage to enemy fleets passing by.

This kind of thing is not so much a weapon as a fortification, like a barbed wire, an anti-tank pile. It's true that fortifications can block the enemy and cause trouble for the enemy's advance, but this is space - the colleagues who are causing trouble for the enemy are also causing trouble for themselves.

The Federation army arranges the "speed bump" in the orbital layer of the Black Star, which means that if the fleet of the Federation on the Black Star wants to come out in the future, it must first send professional engineering vehicles to carry out space junk cleaning operations, so as to ensure the smooth travel of the Black Star Fleet.

It's like fighting in ancient times, when the defenders saw that there were too many attacking troops, they first blocked their own gates with stones. This makes it impossible for the opponent to take the city by quickly breaking through the gates, but it also completely blocks the communication channels between the city and the outside of the city.

It's just that as a new fan of this game, Wu Qing can now somewhat understand the Federation's motives for doing such a stupid thing.

There was no other reason, because the fleet of the Sapient Body was so large that it made the Federation feel hopeless.

30 billion warships!

Not to mention the warships of the entire Federation, even if you add up the number of spaceships of all classes, you can't make up this terrible number, let alone calculate the comparison after having reliable pilots and combatants......

In addition to completely blocking and using this method to delay the offensive edge of the intellectual body to the greatest extent, Wu Qing could not find any other means to deal with this situation in the game.

If you evaluate it from the perspective of game mechanics, in fact, for the Federation, the most dangerous existence is not the 30 billion fleets on the journey, but the Black Star itself.

Why did the Mind send troops to attack the Black Star?

In large part, this is because the fifteenth planet's internal mass has been largely depleted. For the Wisdom Body, this is the time when their strength is at their strongest - if according to Wu Qing's gameplay, the most important thing he should do now is to completely dismantle the entire black star, completely process the entire planet into high-strength particles - and then scatter them into the orbital layer of the twelfth planet to create a super-large-scale speed bump, an interstellar Great Wall.

But the Federation obviously didn't choose this option, judging from their performance in making speed bumps, it is obvious that they are still ready to rely on the military fortress of Black Star to fight with the intellectual army.

It's okay to win...... But this probability is really low and terrible. If you lose......

The mass of the Black Star is about 6 times that of the Fifteenth Planet, which means that the mass of the entire Black Star could create six more such superfleets......

It's close to 200 billion ships!

It can almost be said that this battle can already decide the victory or defeat of two civilizations. If the intellect and body cannot win this decisive battle, the strength of the entire fleet will inevitably begin to decline due to insufficient quality. If the Federation cannot win this decisive battle, it means that future military operations will be completely passive - the strength of both sides will be completely reversed after this battle.

And the winner or loser of this war...... In reality, there are still many people on the official website and have all kinds of expectations, but in the online world, it is not the game exchange that Wu Qing and Shen Wen participated, and everyone's views are the same.

The Federation is lost!
