Chapter 635: Planet Buster: Pseudo (2-in-1)
“…… I agree with Mr. Zhang Yuan. ”
It was Foreign Minister Yang Fan who spoke, "Evidence...... Of course not. But do you remember the Rehemian civilization that occupied our Dyson Sphere embassy in the first place? ”
"Of course I do!" A co-captain said.
Ever since the Rehemian civilization took over the New Humans' embassy, the New Humans' diplomats have been scolding at every joint meeting, but never with their words.
As a result, the Rehemian civilization later fought with another civilization due to its high popularity......
The so-called other civilization is also a third-level civilization called the "Blue Pupil Civilization".
With the idea that "the enemy of an enemy is a friend", the new humans once wanted to come into contact with each other.
As a result, the other party revealed a news that I don't know whether it is true or not: behind the Rehemian civilization is the "Rambler Alliance".
The new humans do not blindly believe this information, at most it is just a reference. And the Edifier Alliance is too powerful, wants revenge, and doesn't know how to do it. At that time, with the attitude that more things are better than less things, it can only be counted.
Lao Yang finally said: "If all this is all the Wanderers playing ghosts, that is to say, they were already engaged in small actions more than ten years ago, but now they have freed up more strength and are dealing with us again." Listening to Zhang Yuan's words, I also think that behind the Apollo civilization is the Edifier Alliance. ”
For a while, many parliamentarians fell silent.
Captain Feng sighed and said, "Just bet that the force behind the other party is the Edifier Alliance, and the bet is lost...... Actually, it's nothing. The situation can't get worse than that, it's a big deal to just run away. ”
Her brow furrowed, "And then, even if it's the Rambler behind it, what should we do?" Condemn them outright? Or a direct attack? I don't think either way is good. ”
Indeed, in the face of a behemoth that is more powerful than the Apollo civilization, how can it be more effective to deter the other party?
"I have an idea."
At this moment, an interstellar diplomat surnamed Chen stood up and spoke: "We can't find evidence of the connection between the Apollo civilization and the Ramblers, so let's just assume that this is the case...... However, it may not be very effective to attack the subordinate civilization under the Rambler, or directly hit the opponent's battle star, and the hatred caused is too great, and there is basically no room for reversal. ”
"Although the Edifier Alliance is strong, there are many enemies, and they should not want to get involved in local disputes too early, so they will make small moves underneath......
"Our purpose is not to hit the other side, but to make the other side understand that the losses after the war will exceed their expectations."
"So, there's another form of deterrence......"
He said word by word: "Planet...... Nemesis! ”
"Planet Buster", a conceptual weapon of war capable of inflicting significant damage on planetary fortresses! To put it simply: it is a combination of an armor-piercing missile and an antimatter missile.
A battlestar is so strong that even if an antimatter missile explodes on its surface, it will only blow up a shallow crater.
Don't overestimate the destructive power of antimatter, which is only two orders of magnitude more powerful than a hydrogen bomb. In a vacuum environment without shock waves, relying only on thermal radiation and kinetic energy, the lethality is quite limited, and at most a magma crater will be blown up.
Most of the energy of antimatter will be dissipated into the universe.
In addition, when building a war star, various civilizations usually lay a thick layer of concrete on the surface of the planet, as well as some special defense materials. When these materials are attacked by high-energy weapons, they are rapidly plasmized.
The temperature of plasma can be increased almost indefinitely, which is a good means of defense, and the plasma of these materials will dissipate a large amount of heat energy into the universe to prevent further erosion of the battle star by various weapons.
This is also the reason why the power of lasers has never been raised, and it is difficult to destroy a spaceship with a simple laser. Because there are also some special paints on the surface of the spacecraft, when the laser hits these paints, they will quickly plasmaize, forming a layer of haze-like things locally, which can absorb the laser energy and greatly weaken the subsequent attack.
So, how does the "Planet Buster" hurt the Battle Star?
Military experts predict that if an armor-piercing projectile with sub-light kinetic energy is used to penetrate into the depths of the planet, and then the antimatter stored in it is detonated inside the planet, it can cause significant damage to the battle star!
Think about it, a firecracker exploding on the surface of the sand has a completely different effect than exploding buried in the sand.
A military expert shook his head: "But Professor Chen, the theory is very beautiful, but the reality is very cruel...... We don't have this kind of planetary nemesis bomb at all! ”
The technical requirements of the "planet nemesis" are too high, first of all, a sub-light speed armor-piercing projectile, which must penetrate at least a depth of several kilometers on the ground, the battle star is not sand, and humans simply do not have such a high-hardness material.
Secondly, antimatter is not a mild thing, it can only be contained through magnetic confinement, and once the device has a defect and comes into contact with positive matter, it will explode immediately! It doesn't matter what the positive matter is, whether it is carbon, iron, or titanium, anyway, once it comes into contact with the substance composed of positive quarks, it will explode immediately.
In the process of vigorous drilling, it is simply impossible to have such a stable device, and the armor-piercing projectile will inevitably deform, as soon as it is deformed, the magnetic restraint will produce defects, and the antimatter will explode immediately.
Therefore, the "planet nemesis" can only be a beautiful reverie.
The young man said solemnly, "Yes, we don't, but we can 'pretend' to have!" All it takes is a decent military exercise to let the other side observe that we have the ability to destroy the battle star! ”
"Loading ......"
Zhang Yuan pondered for a while and felt that this method was indeed better than before.
"The object of our main military exercises should not be the Apollo civilization, but ...... Edifier League! ”
This step is very risky. But it has effectively inflated the combat power of mankind.
The captain finally nodded, "Understood, let's do it!" ”
After this meeting, another five days passed.
An aircraft carrier-class fleet of the new humans has urgently entered a state of faster-than-light sailing...... In the eyes of other civilizations, it is as if there is infighting and escape.
And the battle stars of the Apollo civilization are also moving little by little.
This is also the first time in human history that it has faced planetary-level terrifying combat power. It does not stand still in space, but gradually navigates through curvature, approaching the human air defense identification zone......
This is a naked provocation, could it be that if the other side crosses the air defense identification zone, human beings dare to shoot the first shot?
Densely packed, millions of turrets cover the planet, and a salvo of fire can cover the area of a planet. In the face of absolute strength, various strategies are completely insufficient.
Even an aircraft carrier-class spaceship can't withstand a few railgun salvos!
This is the real Great Terror!
The new human civilization uses wolf pack tactics, as if ignoring the arrival of the opponent's battle star, and still executing its own tactics.
More than 10,000 new human civilization escort-class spaceships have also taken off smoothly and disappeared into the dark space. Each ship carries a hundred soldiers and is a standard combat unit with its own combat power.
In this state of stealth, there is no way to communicate with the outside world instantly, as long as a signal is observed on the battlefield, all the ships will be thrown into a tragic war!
……
A few days later, the aircraft carrier-class fleet urgently dispatched by mankind had already circled around an uninhabited mining area behind the "Rambler Alliance".
This mining area was formed after the white dwarf was shattered hundreds of thousands of years ago, and in the middle is a huge planet with 10 times the mass of the Earth, and the gravity of this planet is too high, and it is very difficult to carry out heavy industry on it.
Due to the chaotic trajectory of meteorites in the surrounding area, which often collide, various civilizations basically do not choose to develop minerals on this large planet. If you are hit by a meteorite, you are asking for trouble.
However, this human fleet has its own reasons for coming here.
A bugler was shouting on the radio: "Attention all officers of the 3rd Legion, they are about to reach their assigned position!" Get out of warp! Adjust the fleet sequence! ”
"The first phalanx is ready!"
"The second phalanx is ready!"
This aircraft carrier-class fleet has a total of millions of soldiers, thousands of large and small spaceships, and the commander looked at this chaotic meteorite area, his heart was mixed with apprehension and uneasiness, and his expression was complicated and abnormal.
They came here out of the war zone to carry out a military deterrence!
This meteorite area has no owner, but the closest one is the "Edifier League".
The purpose of the military exercises here is to let the Ramblers know: "Look, we have found you!" You are the force behind the Apollo civilization! ”
“…… Don't pretend, we also have weapons that threaten the stars! I'm going to beat your battle star if I'm in a hurry! ”
It's always easier to attack than to defend!
Let the other party know that if they really fight and fight for their lives, the new human will also attack the opponent's base camp and gnaw off a piece of the opponent's meat.
Of course, everything is just speculation, and maybe the Rambler has been wronged, and there will only be one more enemy for no reason...... But if you guess correctly, the human deterrent ability against the other side will be greatly enhanced!
After arriving at the destination, a large number of excavators were transported down by the transport spacecraft.
"Are there any ships from other civilizations nearby?"
"Report, no findings for the time being!"
"There are no ships from other civilizations?"
"Report, no!"
Minutes and seconds passed.
Commander Dai took a deep breath and said loudly in the command system: "Soldiers, we are conducting high-energy weapons military exercises here in accordance with the requirements of our superiors. ”
"Planet Buster Missile...... Get ready! ”
Of course, human beings do not have any planetary nemesis, but they just sent a large number of earth drills in advance, viciously drilled 5 kilometers on the surface of this massive planet, and then planted a super-large yield antimatter missile into it......
Therefore, it is called "the nemesis of the planet".
Of course, since there are no spaceships from other civilizations around, the alien civilization will not know whether this missile was drilled into the dirt by itself, or whether it was dug out with a drill machine and put into it......
The difference is huge!
"The 78th engineering team reports that the planet nemesis is ready!"
"Countdown, 10 minutes!"
"Countdown, 1 minute!"
“59,58,57……”
"Launch!"
In order to make the performance more realistic, the mothership pretended to launch a bright missile.
The speed of this missile is extremely fast, accelerated to sub-light speed through electromagnetic ejection, and the reason why it is so bright is to allow the rest of the civilization to observe this thing smoothly.
"Planet Buster", the largest antimatter missile that humanity can make!
Its destructive power can be known from its name.
However, the new human civilization does not have a lot of antimatter reserves, and only two such super missiles can be manufactured, and there are no raw materials for making more.
And these two "planet nemesis" are all on the current Third Legion!
In other words, if there is a real war, there will be no "planet nemesis" to use on the frontal battlefield......
But who knows?
Even some soldiers within the new human civilization do not know, and it is even more impossible for the enemy to know that humans only have two such super missiles!
This ultra-high-power strategic weapon is the most threatening only when it is mounted on a launcher. If we don't take the opportunity to deter the enemy now, can't we really fight and then deter?
All the soldiers looked at the countdown, their hearts beating faster.
“…… 5,4,3,2,1, detonate! ”
This large missile is the size of a two-story house, and it is undoubtedly the product of a very high cost. When the countdown ended, the hearts of several technicians trembled.
Suddenly, the ground flashed with a brilliant blue light.
It exploded!
Just for a moment, a strong light covered the entire ore pile! Accompanied by a furious gamma ray, a huge star rises from the ore pile!
Commander Dai looked at this bright "sun" in amazement, and the whole person was in awe.
This is the power of the "Pseudo-Planet Buster"!
Of the only two, one of them was fired by him.
"It would be nice if we really had such a weapon."
Not only him, but almost all the soldiers faced this state of semi-dementia, stimulated by bright light, their pupils constricted, and they kept swallowing saliva.
This is definitely the largest yield antimatter weapon that has ever exploded in this starry sky!
None of the three previous medium-sized wars used superbombs of this type...... Because it's just too uneconomical.
Splashing antimatter like money is too extravagant, extravagant to the extreme. The new humans are slapping their swollen faces and filling up fat people, which the upper commanders know, but the soldiers don't know, and the rest of the interstellar civilizations don't know either......
After the blue light flickered, the overwhelming mushroom cloud even rushed out of the planet's atmosphere and dispersed into the universe. And the area on the ground where the antimatter missiles were buried has turned into a sea of golden magma.
Immediately afterward, the earth shook, volcanoes began to erupt, and the planet produced a strong earthquake of magnitude 9.6.
Therefore, the hearts of the soldiers are fanatical, and they all worship the great power of high technology. Immediately afterward, a loud roar from the command was heard.
"Third Legion, unfold warp speed, enter faster-than-light state!"
