Chapter 159: The Loss of the Ewen Empire

An hour after the attack on Eun's homeland, while Zhou Xin and the others were still waiting for Atlas to count the specific losses suffered by the Ewen Empire, the little girl reported to them a very uncomfortable bad news. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Brother Captain." Atlas said word for word, "The neutron matter bombs dropped by the Kazlans over the southern continent hit the capital of the Ewen Empire, and many high-ranking personnel of the Empire were killed in the attack. ”

Hearing the word death, the entire command cabin suddenly fell silent. Atlas, who didn't hear the question, continued, "At the beginning, when the losses were reported to the top of the Ewen Empire, there was no reply from them, and people thought that the Ewen Empire's communication network was damaged in the attack, and the communication with some places was temporarily interrupted. But for some time afterwards, communications from all parts of the country were active, but all the communications sent to the capital from all places were still like mud cows into the sea, and there was no reply. The capital of the Eun Empire was completely cut off from its surroundings, and did not respond to a single message about the attack. More importantly, civilian communications with the capital have not been so seriously affected, and the basic response has been achieved. ”

"So you felt weird and looked into it?" At this time, Zhou Xin came back to his senses, but his tone was not relaxed.

Shaking her head, the little girl replied, "Our probes have not yet found the location of the capital of the Ewen Empire, and their capital does not seem to be located in the middle of the entire continent. The details are extrapolated from information obtained from civilian communications. The neutron matter bomb that landed in the capital of the Ewen Empire just smashed into the location of the palace, and the entire palace was completely turned into a big pit by the neutron matter bomb. And local time happened to be daytime, and many members of the upper echelons of the empire were working in the palace, so—"

"In other words, have the high-ranking personnel of the entire Ewen Empire been completely wiped out?" Spred asked, frowning.

"We don't know the exact situation yet, and everything that people know now is described by the people on the periphery who witnessed the attack at the time." Atlas replied cautiously, "What is certain, however, is that at least one of the three rulers of the Eun Empire was in the palace at the time. Because as a royal palace, it is not allowed to exist without a ruler. ”

"That is, at least one ruler was killed in this attack?" Zhou Xin had an ugly look on his face, "I didn't expect that the Kazlan people won a jackpot this time and actually eliminated an imperial ruler. ”

"But if you think about it from the bad side." Dart's face was not very good, "The Ewen people will definitely not give up in the future." ”

"Doesn't that mean that the scale of the next battle will continue to escalate?" Zhou Xin's face changed.

"Judging from the current situation of the battle, most of the hole cards of both sides should be exposed." Dart replied thoughtfully, "I'm afraid it'll be difficult to escalate the battle again, but I'm afraid the Ewen will be even crazier in the next battle." ”

It didn't take long for Dart's words to come true. On the frontal battlefield, the original offensive of the two fleets, which had been fighting for a long time, had weakened a lot. However, suddenly, in a short period of time, the Eun fleet burst into an astonishing combat force, and the fire of the Kazlan people was suppressed in an instant. Once again, a web woven by the beam weapons of the Ewen Empire appeared on the battlefield.

"The Eun fleet has overloaded weapons systems at all costs." Atlas's words drew everyone's attention to the battlefield, "The mothership Eun, which was damaged in the previous battle, has also rejoined the battlefield, and is also attacking the Kazran fleet without reservation. ”

Zhou Xin saw that under the fierce offensive of the Eun fleet, the losses of the Kazran fleet were heavy, and they began to retreat slowly and involuntarily. However, at this moment, the Ewen did not want to spare the enemy, and some warships even frantically rushed towards the Kazlan Front. Even one or two battleships really rushed through the dense fire blockade of the fleets of both sides and crossed the center line of the battlefield to the side of the Kazlan fleet. However, although the Kazlan fleet is in a weak position in the battle at the moment, it is impossible for them to give these crazy ships any chance. Not long after crossing the center line, the Eune battleships were reduced to flames under the dense barrage of missiles. However, the madness that Eun's battleship showed when it charged was still deeply reflected in everyone's eyes.

"Looks like you're right." Looking at the picture on the screen, Zhou Xin said, "Today's Ewen people have gone completely crazy. ”

Dart's brow furrowed, "Still, as crazy as they are, their commander seems to have maintained a certain amount of sanity. With the exception of those ships that charged at will, most of the ships remained in good formation. Coupled with those arrangements in the previous battles, the commander of the Eun fleet is not a simple character. ”

"Certainly not a simple character." Atlas continued, "It wasn't so long ago that it was only recently figured out that from the very beginning, the commander of the entire invading fleet of the Ewen Empire was one of the three rulers of the Empire. ”

"Is the ruler of the empire personally in command?" The expression on Zhou Xin's face looked a little surprised, "This is a little unexpected." ”

Next, Zhou Xin and the others watched the battle between the two fleets as Atlas recounted the unique way in which the entire Ewen Empire operated under the leadership of the three rulers that he had just figured out. As the leaders of the Empire, the three rulers do have the power to issue orders and oversee all affairs within the Empire. But their usual rule over the empire was not so chaotic, and for the sake of convenience, they divided the affairs of the empire into two parts, military and political. Two of the rulers were in charge of each of the two parts, while the remaining one was only responsible for overseeing the ongoing affairs of the empire. However, this distribution of responsibilities was temporary, rotating every three years, and if the affairs were too complicated to handle, two or even three rulers would manage them together.

Zhou Xinli took a moment to figure out the ruling method of the Ewen Empire, and then he spoke, "It's better to fix everyone's power and make it so complicated." ”

"The rulers of the three countries that unified the southern continent refused to give up some of their power." The little girl spread her hands, "So we negotiated such a compromise, and a country with a ruling model close to military rule itself has not much to deal with, so this strange way of ruling has continued to this day." ”

While listening to the internal situation of the Eun Empire that Atlas had investigated, everyone paid attention to the battlefield in space. It was only after more than twenty minutes that the offensive of Eun's fleet began to slowly weaken, and the overload time of the weapon system had passed. Although the Eun mothership was targeted by the Kazran mothership not long after it joined the battle for the second time, the Kazran fleet was somewhat overwhelmed by the frenzied attack of the Eun fleet under the overload. In less than half an hour, almost all the warships of the Kazran fleet suffered serious damage, and at least half of the warships were incapacitated. And the situation of the Eun fleet, which had completely dominated for a short time, was not very good, and the prolonged weapon overload caused almost all the weapons systems of the battleships to collapse, and only a few batteries survived. At the same time, the Kazlan fleet that they frantically attacked was not without any ability to resist, and many of the Eun warships also withstood a lot of artillery fire from the other side. Therefore, outwardly, the overall situation of the Eune fleet is not much better than that of the Kazlan fleet.

The battle has been going on to this point, and it can be said that it can no longer be carried out. Although many of the warships in the Eun's fleet still insisted on firing beams at the Kazran fleet, which was still retreating in disarray, the commander of the fleet was the ruler of an empire after all, and it was still possible to maintain basic sanity in anger. In a short period of time, the battle in space was over, and the Eun fleet, with black smoke emitting from the surface of almost every battleship, retreated. As for the Kazran fleet, the situation is now close to collapse, and they are simply not capable of pursuing the enemy's retreat.

Zhou Xin saw that the retreating Eun fleet soon reached its maximum speed, and the ruler who wanted to lead the fleet was also anxious to know the situation at home. At this moment, Zhou Xin also had similar thoughts, and he also asked Atlas again.

"After all, there are only one hundred and twenty neutron matter bombs, although the power is indeed very huge, but the destructive power is still not comparable to those space buildings that fell before." Atlas replied seriously, "But since it was a targeted attack, the overall damage to Ewen was still very considerable. ”

"What about the numbers?" Zhou Xin asked.

"One hundred and sixteen of the one hundred and twenty neutron matter bombs hit various towns in the Ewen Empire, including the capital, one landed on the edge of the town, and the remaining three missed their target." Atlas continued, "The damage caused by these neutron matter bombs is basically the same, with the explosion point as the center, any object within a radius of three hundred meters is completely destroyed by the explosion, and the shock wave of the explosion affects a radius of about five kilometers. ”

At this point, the little girl just paused. Spred, thinking she had just finished speaking, said, "It's basically about the same as the damage caused by those thirty or forty meters of wreckage, and not even as much as the damage caused by the wreckage." ”

"The extent of the effects of radiation cannot be estimated for the time being." After Spred finished speaking, Atlas added the last sentence.

After hearing the word radiation, many people's faces changed suddenly, and Zhou Xin hurriedly asked: "Will the explosion of the neutron matter bomb also produce radiation?" ”

"The decay of a single neutron itself does not produce radiation, but the assembled mass of neutron matter is different, and the assembled neutron matter bomb is even more different." Atlas replied, "Neutrons flying at high speed release radiation by striking their decayed products and bomb casings. Moreover, if the analysis of the detector is not wrong, I am afraid that this batch of neutron material bombs still contains a certain amount of radioactive material. ”

After explaining, the little girl continued to report the losses of the Eun Empire, which was different from the previous introduction of the damage to the Republic of Kazran, this time she first mentioned the damage to the facilities, "Judging from the reports sent from all over the country, the damage to the various facilities of the Eun Empire, which was attacked by neutron material bombs, is not as serious as that of the previous Republic of Kazran. The factories and other production facilities they built under the ground did not suffer much damage. As for the buildings on the surface, with the exception of those within two kilometers of the blast center, which were completely destroyed, the other buildings further out of the ground were only affected by the shock wave and could be reused with some necessary repairs. ”

At this point, Atlas's voice fell silent all of a sudden. Zhou Xin, who couldn't hear the little girl's voice for a long time, seemed to understand something, and his face also showed a hesitant look. But after a while, he still made up his mind and asked, "What about the loss of population?" ”

"The number of people who died immediately in the explosion was also not as high as in the previous Republic of Kazran, which numbered less than 100 million people." Atlas's words did not relax everyone's mood, and everyone was waiting for her next sentence. "But that's not the only number of people affected by radiation. What's more, most of the neutron material bombs are still located in dense urban centers, which amplifies the radiation coverage of residential areas, especially those in the dark range. After hesitating for a while, the little girl continued, "At least 300 million people have been exposed to radiation, and the intensity is unknown. Most of them have already begun to show the first symptoms of radiation sickness, and a small number of Ewen people who are close to the center of the explosion have more severe symptoms and are on the verge of death. She added, "This is still a preliminary statistic, and it is estimated that there are many more people who have been exposed to lower levels of radiation, and the symptoms of radiation will slowly manifest themselves in the following period." ”

Hearing this set of figures reported by Atlas, many people present couldn't help but gasp. After a few minutes, Dart breathed a sigh of relief and began to assess the attack on the Eun Empire, "Although it is not as destructive as the previous attack on the Kazran Proper, it actually has a greater impact on the Eun Empire......
