Chapter 533: Persist in Convincing with the Truth
"What do you mean?"
Qiao Lu wondered if he had heard it wrong, wasn't it a joke to fight against the Death Star? The opponent can smash the entire earth with a single super laser cannon, so what can we talk about in this situation?
Ding Yi said seriously: "Of course, I don't mean that you hit me with a shot, I return you with a shot." Rather, the main guns of both sides are fired at the same time, and they collide with each other in space to cancel each other, and in the end only one side survives. ”
This is not so much a counter-bomb as a counter-wave.
It's just that it was the Earth and the Death Star that staged this scene, which really deserved to be Star Wars.
"Can it really be done?" Qiao Lu asked suspiciously.
Ding Yi nodded and said, "Galen Ersor has demonstrated to us the time it takes for the Death Star Super Laser Cannon to go from locking on to being fully charged and launching. There is plenty of time to predict the trajectory, and when the distance between the two sides is far enough, the super laser cannon can be intercepted in the middle like an interceptor missile. ”
"Of course, since the Super Laser Cannon doesn't detonate like a missile, we have to counteract the Super Laser's firepower with a more powerful main cannon and shoot it all the way back along its trajectory. As mentioned earlier, the Death Star's command room is located above the top edge of the Super Laser Cannon's launchport, so you only need to adjust the angle along the trajectory of the Super Laser Cannon to blast it over, and you can just hit the Death Star's command room accurately. ”
Hearing this, Qiao Lu realized that this plan was not a joke, the Wandering Earth really wanted to use the Earth Cannon to bombard the Death Star.
That's why such an indestructible and highly interactive cannonball is needed, which may be the only material that can withstand the Death Star's super laser cannon and run over it with strong kinetic energy!
"Is it really necessary to take such a risky action?" Qiao Lu couldn't help but ask.
The whole plan sounded so crazy that it seemed as difficult to implement as the Wandering Earth project.
Shen Huabei shook his head and said, "Director Qiao Lu, I know it sounds crazy, but this is the plan that is most sure that we can achieve our goal after excluding all other methods." If we were only to destroy the Death Star, we would only need to take advantage of the absence left by Galen Urso and blow up the reactor of the Death Star with a proton torpedo thrown into the exhaust pipe, but then we would only get nothing. ”
"Another way is to infiltrate the Death Star and use the gang jump to capture it, but after experiencing the Scarif suit, I don't think the Empire will be careless enough to watch the Death Star fall into our hands, and may even activate the Death Star's self-destruct program to fight us to the death."
"So the only way to take it by surprise is with the Earth Cannon, which can completely destroy the Death Star's command room with a single blow, but without damaging its reactor energy core. Galen Ersor promised that he would find a way to transfer the reactor energy core of the Death Star to the Crescent base and redesign a super laser cannon to be installed on the Crescent. Isn't it worth the risk that the Crescent Base will be upgraded to become a Star Slayer Base? ”
The Death Star's super laser cannon was designed by Galen Ersor, and as long as he can get the reactor energy core of the Death Star, he certainly has a way to redesign a super laser cannon.
It is really not impossible for the Crescent Moon Base to be upgraded to the Star Slayer Base.
"Actually, there is another, more important reason." Ding Yi added, "Since the discovery that the Death Star's super laser cannon was enough to destroy the entire Earth, there has been a certain degree of wavering at the top of the coalition government, and I think you have already experienced it. ”
"Of course."
Qiao Lu has not forgotten the last meeting of the Coalition Council, and the fear of the Death Star has caused some people to start thinking of backing down, and it is he who insists on taking military action against the Empire based on reason.
Ding Yi continued: "Now that the top brass of the coalition government has regained their faith, it is inevitable that ordinary people will feel fear and unease when they know that the enemy they are facing has such a powerful weapon, and they will begin to doubt the decision of the coalition government. ”
This is indeed a big problem, and the reason why the Wandering Earth can achieve such a grand feat today is because of the unprecedented unity and cohesion of all mankind.
Once this cohesion is weakened, the coalition government loses its greatest strengths, and if it is not handled properly, there are endless consequences.
Ding Yi said impassionedly: "So we need to prove that the coalition government is capable of dealing with the threat of the Death Star, even if its main cannon is enough to destroy the entire planet, we have the corresponding means to counteract and ultimately win." This is the only way to dispel the panic of the people, and we insist on convincing people with the truth! ”
Truth is always only within the range of the cannon, which is why the Earth Cannon must exist.
The best way to overcome fear is to face it, and the threat of the Death Star must be confronted so that the coalition government can once again reassure the people and keep humanity united on the wandering planet.
"I see."
Qiao Lu originally thought that this was a reckless plan, but he didn't expect that he had thought about it so much, from the feasibility of the plan to the follow-up impact, he didn't say anything more.
"Last question, how long will it take you to prepare?"
Even if the Antarctic courtyard project is almost complete, it is not ready to be put into use immediately, and a series of overhauls and weapons tests are still needed.
Shen Huabei, who is the main person in charge of the Antarctic courtyard project, replied:
"We are still using the energy of the fire to carry out the final rush, and then we need to carry out project acceptance and exercise test launch, I am afraid it will take at least another month."
One month, which is quite enough time for the wandering earth.
For the Rebel League, it's not so certain.
Just as Qiao Lu was thinking about whether the rebels would make any moves in advance, Captain Andor of the Rogue No. 1 squad suddenly contacted him and said:
"Jolu, we just received an urgent call from the Rebel Headquarters, and Princess Leia's Tantvi IV was captured by the Executor! She herself has fallen into the hands of Dath Vader, and may be forced to ask for the location of the rebel headquarters at any moment, and we are running out of time! ”
The Rebel Alliance is the main resistance force that helped overthrow the Empire, and is also an important ally of the Wandering Earth in the Star Wars plane.
Regardless of whether they could be completely wiped out by the Death Star, or conversely, the rebels would take advantage of the Death Star's weakness to destroy it, both of which Joe didn't want to see.
He must first stabilize the situation of the rebel army, so that the Wandering Earth has enough time to prepare, and finally take the Death Star in one fell swoop!
