42.12 Midway Star
When the Holy Lance passed through the black hole and entered the new Star Sea region, the war continued.
Then observe this war from the perspective of the next war node.
Panxing, this is an orthodox native civilization planet, and the hairless primates have completed the development trend of the leap to the intelligent species in four million years.
Starting with the painting of the rock wall, the flame of wisdom was ignited for 40,000 years, and then passed through the primitive totemic and mythological eras, as well as the global flood and climate change. The human beings here no longer know the affairs of the most primitive generations, and they have developed and grown independently.
Civilization gradually began the industrial age four hundred years ago, and the political entities on the star catalog began two extremely tragic industrial age wars with each other, and technology developed to the nuclear age, and the main civilization above carried out a period of stable competition for hundreds of years. However, it seems that the explosive development of civilization and technology is too distinct. Marked by advanced cosmic civilizations.
In the current process of chasing and retreating from the two starry sky civilizations, the war has spread to this civilization that is still in its infancy, with hope and the attributes of the end.
……
One of the partial forces in the main force of the Yichang civilization is trying to deflect the will of the pursuers by interfering with this primary civilization.
A reductive eco-nest has been laid on two gaseous asteroids in its solar system. The first civilization of the bipedal walking humans on the disk star was still in the era of the star catalog country, and in the spacecraft, carefully observing and sending out information.
But two gaseous asteroids, only forty years later, have a twenty-kilometer-long space battleship floating in the universe. As a result, the pan stars began to be divided into the preparation faction and the "exchange faction".
For politicians, the so-called communication, when they are strong, is to force their opponents in the city. If you can't defeat it, forming friends with your opponent is also communication.
As for the moment,
In the face of super-technology whose productivity is clearly beyond its own level, the courage to resist is very weak, and its international supreme joint conference is ready to survive under the arrangement of alien forces. Trying to maintain the basic state and social system in it.
In the end, the communicator failed, because the star of the plate did not even know the name, and could only name the alien forces after the common laws δ symbols in their radio waves.
Those carbon-based metal bugs that were born in the reductive atmosphere.
For the first time, Panxing people encountered a civilization whose 'society and thought' were completely different from their own.
[But to be honest, if you count it according to the characteristic of "non-communicative", the star people should put themselves in their shoes, because when they colonized and expanded, how could they communicate equally and rationally with the disadvantaged groups? 】
In fact, the δ swarm has already shown its attitude with offensive targets, for example: when the superpower attacks, it will focus on seizing oil fields, vaults, etc. As for 'spreading democracy and spreading freedom', this is not a word that can be believed.
……
After a decade of research, countries have come up with the fact that these carboxyl insect species are not the same as the competition for resources in traditional warfare, and they only destroy cities.
They are not interested in the planet's mines, oil fields, or even farmland. Not even interested in vehicles traveling on the wide highways between cities, in the vast expanse of the country, large truck drivers are often seen, these dozens of tons of metal monsters that spew tongues of fire at a gallop and fly towards the city.
And even if the people in the car call and report to the city department in advance, these insects with keen electromagnetic perception are only blocking the signal, and they don't care about the destruction. But as soon as they are allowed into the city, even the most ordinary stroller will not hesitate to deliver a beam strike.
Hundreds of large cities around the world have been in chaos and evacuated from the city's areas, and the slums that once gave the city sheriff a headache have fled like watered ant nests after several metal giant insects have killed them.
Submachine guns, pistols, and bullets that make civilians feel cool in peacetime movies. It had no effect on the tank-like creatures, and even the rockets, often the outermost phantom hexagonal net shield flickered, and then in the warhead exploded, the carbonaceous insects emerged unscathed from the smoke.
……
The human civilization suffered heavy casualties in the early days of the invasion of the δ civilization. Although at this stage δ the warships of the civilization had not yet arrived, and there were only 1,400 bugs on the surface of the advent planet, but because they could accurately parachute into large cities, 30,000 people were killed and missing, and more than 6 million people were displaced.
At the same time, due to the pluralistic culture generated by long-term peace, all kinds of strange people who are divorced from reality are also desperately performing in this era.
When it was discovered that the advance team of the swarm never attacked small and medium-sized cities, nor did it destroy the rural farmland, some organizations began to appeal: "Human beings destroy the earth, there are many crimes, and the will of cosmic civilization will be punished." Only a return to nature can avoid blows. ”
Naturally, governments will not be brain-dead enough to listen to this unrealistic "public opinion".
However δ it is a fact that extraterrestrial forces are only interested in cities with large concentrations of people, and have little interest in marginal secondary population areas.
In response to this fact, countries began to evacuate the urban population as much as possible, while the cities retained only the necessary productive population. All private vehicles were cleared out of the city, so that the main battle tanks and fire trucks could quickly support.
As for the human high-rise, why not completely reduce the city? Avoid war?
In this era, the population of society has exceeded the upper limit of production in nature, and if the city is completely dissolved, there will be no mechanization to excavate water conservancy, no chemical fertilizer to increase production, and no pesticides to suppress the lowest insect ecology. How to maintain the population of a large species like itself at the niche size of the rat species (a conservative estimate of 90 billion rats worldwide).
……
When this great war of invasion of foreign civilizations begins.
The Great Famine, which existed only in the Middle Ages, broke out on several continents.
The great powers are busy with internal situations, so the news of global humanitarian disasters is very marginal, and in the rainforest continents of the southern hemisphere, large groups of millions of people have begun to destroy, kill, or cannibalize in their migrations to compete for limited food.
Outside of humanitarianism, however, the unprecedented ecological catastrophe is even more insignificant.
Tigers, lions, the top predators, are in the tens of thousands on the prairie. Although the person lying in bed playing with his mobile phone laughs at himself that he can't even beat a goose, in fact, his species-based template is the most upstream predator in nature, plus wooden sticks and metal props everywhere, and the top of the food chain is ironclad.
The impact on the ecological chain of human groups that have lost agriculture is not comparable to the invasion of any single species.
Humans hunt and kill almost everything in times of famine, and as omnivores, they do not spare the bark of grass roots and trees.
As a result, unprecedented fires have erupted in the grasslands of the world's most important tropical rainforests. From large animals, to rats in the grass, to small fish in the river, all of them are salted into the mouth.
As the refugees poured in, it was really a thousand miles away.
Conservation has long been a joke, and in just a few years, species have become extinct at a rate higher than any other time in geological time, as humans themselves have been forced to compete in ecological energy competition.
This reality slapped the pre-war environmentalists who were anti-industrial and wanted to save all kinds of beautiful creatures.
……
Of course, the panic on this planet did not last long, and just after the arrival of the swarm home planet, a message came from another mysterious civilization in outer space.
This civilization has a higher degree of communication with the stars. It's a little higher here, that is, compared to the δ civilization that doesn't say a word. The civilization only informs that it is the δ civilization that destroys the city is engaged in a cosmic war.
The civilization also failed to introduce itself, so much so that the Panstar had to use another mathematical symbol α replace them when addressing them.
[Naming is very particular, because I don't know if there is hostility, so I can't use good words to describe it, and I can't use bad words for fear of angering the other party, so I use mathematical symbols, which are the common rational language of civilization, instead.] Of course, it is named like this, which emphasizes that he also has the civilization of scientific exploration, so that if the other party wants to attack one day, he can have mercy. 】
Although the α civilization does not speak much, it is very generous, and some high-tech data have been transmitted to various countries, regardless of whether they are developed or backward. This makes some developed countries on the planet who have long blocked technology from backward countries very ashamed.
The most important technological support for α civilization is the investment of six hundred and seventy-seven energy seeds. When these seeds enter the center of a large city, they extend underground, drawing geothermal energy, and in the sky above the city, they support a strong degenerate membrane.
And the energy coordination center of this shield is located in the city. α civilization is very user-friendly and has made a docking system suitable for the operation of Pan Xingren. And this central coordination center has a huge tube aimed at the sky, and if the geocentric energy is drawn too much, it can be emitted into outer space.
The whole city is in a huge cover, and the various transportation stations outside the city complete the exchange of materials through underground tunnels and within the city, constantly transporting agricultural products and raw materials in, and industrial manufactured goods out.
……
These shields were finally completed before the arrival of the capital ships of the δ civilization.
These behemoths, which are more than one-third the diameter of the natural satellite of the disk, appear in the inner orbit like a lunar eclipse.
The decision-makers of various countries looked at the rows of creature eyes on the warship on the telescope, and finally experienced the two tremors like being stared at by natural enemies.
δ's fleet still adheres to the principle of attacking only cities. And the degenerate protective shield over each city is indeed unusually strong, and countless beam strikes with an equivalent of millions of tons are like water guns hitting the glass cover unscathed. Just dust-swept away the clouds in the troposphere, revealing a clear sky in the atmosphere.
The civilization of Panxing has been maintained, although there are still Zerg descending from the sky and trying to move in from the subway tunnels of the surrounding transportation stations, but this is all a minor problem.
During the day, human fighters, warships, and heavy artillery can pour out of the temporary holes opened by the degenerate membrane in time to conduct large-scale inspections.
The stealth template that comes with the bug at night is a bit cunning, and its infrared signature is like a human electric tricycle. Repeatedly infiltrated success.
……
The human government on this plate star also breathed a sigh of relief and began to wait.
As a country with a modern system, their hardest work now is to maintain the current civilized production system, at all costs.
It's just a little embarrassing here, and the only confidence that humanity can sustain in the current war is to wait for external support, that is, its own possible allies α civilization. Its mysterious and unpredictable advanced technology gives its own side the confidence that it can fight, and as for the confidence to win more in the future, it seems that it also depends on α civilization.
If α civilization can play the role of some lighthouse nations and express more encouragement in verbal exchanges, the human governments on the planet will have the confidence to fight.
However, α civilization is too real, except for science and technology, theory. Not much to say about the rest.
This led to some minor maneuvers by politicians, and as a result, the United Space Agency made an official statement.
Claiming to have received the 'signal of α civilization' forty years ago, α civilization had already foreshadowed the coming of war, when the two camps of the Cold War were not united, leading to a series of mistakes.
After carefully fabricating this lie, the politicians of the joint space agency quietly observed whether the α civilization had any reaction, and if α civilization had any displeasure, they would immediately stand up and refute the rumors, and then hold those responsible accountable.
However, such trivial matters are clearly within the tolerance of ultra-civilization, and politicians also believe that super-civilization should be a stopgap measure to understand their own operations.
Then the operation of the 'marketing account' begins.
For example, α civilization complains that the advanced mechanical technology of the star is so backward, it will definitely fall into a bottleneck in the future.
Another example: α civilization has revealed that the "ancient technology" existing on this planet far exceeds our current level of technology, but they also say that the door of ancient technology cannot be easily opened, so it means that we can only suffer poverty when we sit at the gate of the secret treasure.
It is no wonder that in recent years, some netizens in the Oriental Continent of Pan Star have complained: "α civilization is like a seller of strong pills, repeatedly emphasizing how good his goods are, but he will only talk empty words." ”
……
But after this series of saucy operations.
The government achieved two objectives:
1: They give the people the impression that the government is trying to communicate closely with foreign civilizations, and that it is always using all means to win the war.
2: Although δ supercivilization technology is very powerful, there is also a technologically advanced supercivilization support on your side. As long as we persevere, there will be a dawn in the future.
"Alas!" The top-level insider of the pan star is quite helpless about this - "Who called, these super civilizations are like gold." ”
Just like those before the war, don't those who make "marketing accounts" on the Internet not get real information, so they will make up nonsense. If there is a channel to get official information, who wants to do so? (Spread hands)
……
But are supercivilizations really reluctant to communicate?
