Chapter Thirty-Seven: Is This Cannon Big Enough?

Since this crisis involves space operations, it is certainly not something that only the ground forces on the planet Pandora can solve.

After getting the detailed data of the Entrepreneurial Star from Dr. Grace, Qiao Lu and Luo Feng hurriedly returned to the Wandering Earth, discussing countermeasures with the representatives of the major councils at the meeting of the coalition government.

At present, the only one who has the ability to intercept the entrepreneurial star is the wandering earth.

Luo Feng spoke at the meeting as a representative: "Ladies and gentlemen, the ground forces on Pandora have been defeated by us, but now we have new troubles. The RDA's space carrier, Entrepreneurship Star, is returning to Pandora and is scheduled to enter the orbit of Pandora in ten days, and will bomb the planet with antimatter weapons. ”

When they heard about antimatter weapons, the entire board was taken aback, they did not expect that the RDA would have such a terrible technology, and that they really planned to use this weapon to destroy a planet.

One of the directors quickly asked, "What's going on?" Didn't it mean that they were restricted from using weapons of mass destruction? How can you have antimatter weapons? ”

Dr. Grace, who came with Jory, explained to them:

"Because the Entrepreneurial Star uses antimatter annihilation reactors to supply energy, the anti-hydrogen and hydrogen, the main fuels, use the mutual annihilation of the two to produce huge energy. They can use this fuel for energy, and naturally they can make it into weapons, and although it is obviously illegal to do so, it does not allow anyone else to catch any tricks. ”

As long as you don't get caught, it's not a crime, at least that's what the RDA thinks.

But it is a huge problem for the Wandering Earth, antimatter weapons are still just a concept on the Wandering Earth, and how to intercept them is not known at all.

Then there is only one way left, to destroy the opponent before they launch the antimatter weapon, and this is the only option at the moment.

The question is, how do you destroy the Startup Star, the space carrier?

"Will ICBMs be useful?" The representative of the United States immediately asked, "We still have a very large stockpile of nuclear bombs. ”

Dr. Grace shook his head and said, "The Startup Star was designed with the possibility of various missile attacks in mind, and it is equipped with a very complete missile interception system, and the nuclear bomb will be shot down before it can approach the spaceship. ”

"So how about boarding a ship?"

The Russian representative proposed, proudly stating: "The Russians are invincible in space!" ”

Luo Feng said with a wry smile: "I agree, but we don't have the experience of boarding ships in space, not to mention that the opponent's point defense system can even intercept missiles, and it will be even more difficult for our landing ships to get close." ”

"So what are the chances of success using the Navigator space station to hit the Startup Star?" The representative of the United Kingdom raised his hand and asked.

The artificial intelligence Moss quickly substituted the data and gave an answer: "The probability of success is zero, the opponent's speed is ahead of the navigator space station, it can easily avoid our impact, and the space station will also be at risk of being destroyed by the opponent's antimatter weapons." ”

"Then we have to choose to surrender?" When it was the turn of the representative of France to speak, it seemed that he would have to come up with that idea.

As is customary, he is the one in charge of the negotiations.

Qiao Lu decisively vetoed: "We can't compromise with the RDA, they will only try their best to take our planet." And the Star of Entrepreneurship must be destroyed, otherwise it will always be a sword of Damocles hanging over our heads. ”

Seeing Qiao Lu's attitude so resolute, Luo Feng couldn't help asking:

"Qiao Lu, do you have any good ideas?"

This is not the first time that Qiao Lu has made amazing remarks at a coalition government meeting, so all the council representatives have their eyes on him to see what magical solution Qiao Lu has to solve this crisis.

Qiao Lu stood in front of the three-dimensional projection of the Entrepreneurship Star, and gestured to the virtual projection of the space carrier:

"The biggest trouble with this ship is its point defense system, and there is almost no way for missiles to get close. And there are also big killers such as antimatter weapons, so that the spacecraft, including the navigator space station, cannot be approached. ”

"But we have the Earth!" Qiao Lu suddenly changed his words and said, "No matter how strong the firepower of the Entrepreneurial Star is, it is impossible to destroy the entire earth in a short period of time, so we have a way to get close to the enemy to a certain distance. ”

Luo Feng seemed to see through Qiao Lu's thoughts, and still shook his head and said, "Do you want to use the wandering earth to hit the entrepreneurial star?" But this is impossible, the other side is faster than us, once we find out that we have this intention, we must have started to avoid it early. ”

This is the same as using the Navigator space station to hit the Entrepreneurial Star, which is also a plan with a success rate of 0.

Qiao Lu smiled and said, "Who said I was going to hit them?" There are so many cannons on the planet, don't you plan to use them? ”

"Cannon?"

Everyone wondered for a while, when was the cannon built on Earth that could attack space warships, how could they, as directors, not know?

Qiao Lu walked to the window and opened the curtain of the conference room, pointed to a blue pillar of light outside and said:

"Is this cannon big enough?"

What caught everyone's eye was a majestic planetary engine, shooting a blue-white column of plasma light into space.

The height of this pillar of light has apparently broken through the atmosphere, and it can be seen clearly even in space.

And this is just an ordinary propulsion engine, and the steering engine on the equator can also shoot out a larger pillar of light, like a giant pillar standing up to the sky and the earth.

Li Yiyi, who is a representative of scientists, reacted instantly: "I can modify the program of the engine to make it spray higher!" And if you use superconducting ore as fuel, the power and range can be increased by several notches! ”

This cannon is definitely big enough.

This jumping brain circuit made the directors present come over for a few seconds before they realized what Qiao Lu wanted to do.

If you use the planetary engine as a plasma cannon, then the Wandering Earth is indeed a fully armed super battleship!

What is an antimatter weapon, can you shoot at the entire Earth with a single space carrier?

Luo Feng also quickly realized the possibility of this matter, and immediately asked Moss:

"Confirm the trajectory of the Startup Star right now, is it possible for us to intercept it with Earth before it reaches Pandora?"

Moss quickly calculated: "If we turn from now on, it is expected that the Earth will meet the Startup Star in the Alpha Galaxy in eight days, and the closest distance between the two sides will be about 70,000 kilometers." ”

70,000 kilometers, the last time the distance between the Earth and Jupiter was 70,000 kilometers.

It's just that due to Qiao Lu's sudden intervention, the plan of the Wandering Earth to ignite Jupiter was not implemented in time.

And this time they will shoot not a "match", but a cannon!

Unbeatable Earth Cannon!
