Chapter 304: Swarm Building - Strategy
Many people believe that the best strategy for the development of the Zerg is no strategy, the so-called "no trick to win", "quantity is quality", the use of far higher than the opponent tens of billions, hundreds of billions, or even trillions of times, or even almost infinite quantities is enough to drown everything, and everything will be fine when you encounter the opponent directly without a brain.
There is some truth to this view, but it is essentially wrong.
Fighting an interstellar Zerg also pays attention to tactics such as three ore streams, not to mention fighting in reality that is much more complicated than the game? Yes, a near-infinite swarm of insects is enough to drown everything, but where is there anything else in reality that is positive infinity other than the concept of positive infinity itself? The resources on Earth are limited, and the final balance does not have enough resources and time to create a sea of insects that is like the real Zerg.
And the disadvantages of that sea of insects are too obvious.
There's no way, movie games are all fake, the director and the audience just want to have fun, you can have no brains, no military common sense, plus what...... The tactics of the U.S. military are state secrets, and Hollywood definitely can't shoot them, so there is the kind of human IQ dropped, and the Zerg dominate the IQ has never been online, and the two sides are completely rookies pecking each other, and winning is completely the other party's more mentally retarded situation.
The reality is that since the invention of long-range weapons such as artillery and automatic weapons such as machine guns, it has been the most taboo to fight wars and rush together, and after entering the era of information warfare in the 90s, the over-the-horizon strike strategy began to be promoted, and all kinds of large-scale killing weapons such as cloud burst bombs and bombs began to be put into use.
If his swarm is also crowded together in piles like in the movie, not to mention how to deal with the balance and adjudication organization of various black technology heavy weapons, or those nuclear powers, it will be difficult to fight countries that can form a firepower defense line as long as there is a large-scale weapon production line.
The reason is very simple, because the government in the real world, even if it is a small country that has no quarrel with the world, is not the kind of interstellar era in the movie, can make space jumps and still use gunpowder guns, and send infantry directly before the war without using a large killing weapon to wash the ground, and after landing, there is no air force to cover in the sky, and even the tactics that were available in World War I like the Butan Tongxie around are not mentally retarded.
Really against this kind of opponent, the army soldiers are estimated to be happy, and they can beat the defense line, and they can get medals such as direct firepower coverage, and they can't beat such a large group of insects gathered over, and they can first find out the situation through satellite reconnaissance, and then fight and retreat to defend the final balance kite, he calculated, even if such tactics can win, the cost is very high, and the ratio of enemy to enemy casualties is more than 1 to 1000.
It's not cost-effective at all.
The effect of the commanded army is much higher than that of the non-commanded, and the Zerg who want to create the characteristics of the earth can't be fooled around like this, there are two sentences that say so, knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible, and not fighting unprepared battles.
- Before you go to war, you must first figure out who your opponent is and what strength he has.
The future opponents of the final balance are: the human nation on Earth, the Judgment Organization and the Atlanteans behind it, and the Balance Organization and the Ancient God-level Evolutionary behind it, which is equivalent to the Super Saiyan humanoid nuclear bomb.
Especially the latter two, which are not easy to deal with, and even have black technology weapons such as space battleship groups.
The cosmic-level battle is not at all possible for the strength of the final balance to participate in, even if he is worried, he can only wait for the future to rush out of the atmosphere before thinking about it, after several simulations of assuming different opponents, the rest, as long as the battle is in the atmosphere, he has prepared different response strategies.
Let's start with the first place.
On the battlefield of the information age, the first thing to compete is information leadership.
In other words, intelligence leads.
It's like fighting the landlord, I know your cards, unless I'm too stupid or too bad, then winning you is a sure thing, if your movements I have seen it using satellites, then I have an advantage over you, because I can prepare in advance according to your movements, and you know nothing about me can only be passively beaten.
After the intelligence is obtained, it is a surgical precision strike - that is, as mentioned earlier, the air supremacy of the essence of the competition:
Use fighter jets, bombers, ballistic missiles, etc. to attack the enemy's vital points, such as command centers, airfields, factories, important sections of roads and railways, or arsenals, etc., to paralyze them, and finally the army can go to wash the ground and collect the corpses.
Such a tactic is very powerful and effective, but its weaknesses also have two very obvious weaknesses:
First, because it is necessary to ensure mobility, the fighters, missiles and other weapons that determine the outcome of a modern war are all offensive and high defenses...... Well, theoretically, if you hit a stone, you may be destroyed, and you will be completely vulnerable in terms of defense.
Second, since what is sought is precision strikes, the cost of these weapons of war is bound to be very high, and the cost of a fifth-generation fighter alone will reach hundreds of millions of dollars, and if you count the annual maintenance and pilot training, which is more expensive than an airplane, it is simply an astronomical amount.
So there can't be too many of them.
In this way, it is easy to deal with: still the same sentence, quantity is quality, although the final balance will not be as brainless as the swarm in the movie, but this does not mean that he will not use this advantage of the swarm against the enemy.
Playing to strengths and avoiding weaknesses is the first strategy of soldiers!
In this regard, it is enough to hand over the alien that is born after the parasitic dragonfly (such insects will be referred to as the original name in the future), if they use the biochemical wind tunnel to propel themselves at the cost of tearing themselves apart, they can reach a speed of 4 to 5 Machs, a sprint distance of 30 to 50 kilometers, no slower than fighters and missiles, and because of their small size, it is difficult to intercept, dozens of them on one plane at a time can definitely replace them.
This battle loss ratio is well worth it in terms of cost:
A missile is hundreds of thousands of millions, a fighter jet is tens of millions and hundreds of millions, and what is the cost of a caracal?
The final balance has been calculated, counting all kinds of nutrients, the main thing is that the metal elements that are absorbed into the shell need to be added when the special-shaped hatching, such as titanium powder - of course, the second aluminum alloy powder can also be relegated, but the effect is fifty or sixty percent worse.
In this way, the cost will be 100 to two or three thousand, and in the future, the industrial production lines of Ai Science and others will be three to five times lower when they cooperate with each other.
Hundreds to tens of thousands, in exchange for the other party's millions, hundreds of millions of things, no matter how you look at it, it can be regarded as earned, and the final balance also plans to make cysts similar to bullet nests on the dragonfly, equipped with 3 to 5 sword horn locusts equivalent to a Gauss gun bullet to form a fire protection net.
If he has 100,000 caracal dragonflies, the final balance dares to guarantee that no country's air force except for nuclear bombs can block the attack of this kind of insect swarm that does not need logistics at all and can survive as long as organic matter is maintained.
Of course, the charge of these insects will not be as densely packed together as in the movie, but like the armored torrent in modern warfare, it emphasizes tactics such as infantry and air and ground cooperation, and is divided into several squads centered on heavy loading platforms, keeping a distance from each other and charging away, first washing the opponent with long-range firepower and then making up for the knife in close combat.
As for the information leadership, which is the most important thing in modern warfare, the final balance has long been in place.
Insects themselves are the most stealthy spies, they hide in all kinds of corners you don't expect, and who can guarantee that there are no mosquitoes, cockroaches, flies and other small insects in the house?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but regret it a little:
In the first place, he really shouldn't have saved the deferred control module that he was least optimistic about for the end.
This module allows the final balance to have the ability to extend the control range of the network with bugs as a relay station, just like a server on the network.
What does that mean?
For example, the final balance can obtain the control of insects through visual vision, assuming that the range of this ability is now 100 meters, then there is a bug with a range of 150 meters away, or the final balance cannot be found within 100 meters, but the insect can use other abilities such as smell and touch to find the place to see again, if there is a deferred control module, he can indirectly obtain the control of those insects through the perspective of the insects he controls.
And so on, theoretically it is possible to extend the range through the bug station indefinitely!
This ability was useless when the level was low before, but now that the level is high, it can be said that even the final void summoning in the nine sub-modules is not as precious as it, if there is a final balance, you can take the Golden Triangle as the center of the circle, and use the method of "insects with insects" to lay down a network of super insect swarms all over the world!
However, now that the proficiency level is only 16 percent, let's take it slowly, and at this rate it will probably be almost a year before we can start carrying out this great project.
If this network of insect swarms is really laid, and the biological computer is used to increase the speed of brain computing, the final balance is equivalent to gaining the ability to monitor any corner of the world, which is much more powerful than any satellite, hacker and the like.
After all, they can't detect indoor or cave places that can't be photographed.
Combined with the pervasive nature of insects, even the Zerg army can paralyze any army without even moving!
The cost of modern weapons is extremely high, although it brings accuracy, but it also brings another weakness - they are too delicate, a key part of a wire is broken, or a screw is not screwed well, it will bring failure or even complete scrapping, from the F22 once happened because the rat got into it and bit the pipeline to go back to the factory for overhaul accidents.
Moreover, things can be repaired if they are broken, but it is a big deal to rebuild them, and if something happens to a person, it will not work:
What is the most expensive in the 21st century? Talent, it is enough to build an aircraft with a production line and even less than a day, but how long does it take to train a pilot? How much does it cost? What about other higher-level talents?
Say, Commander.
There is also a toxicity enhancement module in the final balance, if the gene fusion module is used to change the bees to the size of mosquitoes, and then upgrade and deploy them slowly, if you are properly prepared, it is estimated that most of the commanders and precious talents of the other side will be wiped out by him before the battle is fought, and the rest will inevitably live in fear, maybe you don't need to fight the swarm, just rely on the network of the swarm to collapse the other side.
This kind of pervasive sneak attack can't be prevented at all, unless the opposite side can wear sealed protective clothing 24 hours a day, eat,, and sleep without taking it off, and live in a sterile room that is disinfected every few hours, and does not let go of any fish that slips through the net.
However, in this way, even if the means of sneak attack are useless, the morale of the other party is basically lost, after all, it is not enough to fight this virtue, so it is still a fart?
Moreover, after building this web of worms, Ultimate's plan is even crazier, and he has given it a code name called "Wormhole".
The final balance plan uses the extremely strong burrowing ability of engineering insects to dig a passage to the world like an underground railway at a distance of 100 meters underground, and quietly excavates huge spaces at major strategic points to be used as a nest for cultivating insect aliens......
However, this plan is not realistic:
After all, the amount of work is too large, and it would be good to think about it in the short term, but it is okay to consider secretly building an underground Zerg sub-base that blooms everywhere.
After several months of accumulation, the potential of the final balance to build a civilization has finally officially exploded, and he estimates that it will only take three or five years - it won't even take that long, and when this Zerg base is sitting on millions of troops, as long as the human country does not use nuclear bombs, I am afraid that none of them will be his opponents.
But he is not proud of this:
People have to look high, just like adults don't compete with children, the human state is only the weakest one among the three major opponents, and it is not necessarily the enemy, the other two are the most important.
In front of them, not to mention the Zerg army that has not yet reached a large scale, and there is no network of super insect swarms all over the world, even if there is, it may be difficult to compete with it:
Sneak attacks are ineffective against non-human beings, as well as hyper-tech creations that may possess nano-protection, surveillance, and repair functions, and their methods are simply not available to the Ultimate Balance right now - for example, the biochemical technology that the Adjudication Organization is best at!
If he wants to compete with it comprehensively, the final balance makes the swarm like the real Zerg, and he must constantly maintain the overall evolution of the swarm, and he must find a way to set up insurance measures such as "gene valve" and "gene gate".
Deduct these unconventional means of confrontation, even if the weapons of the other party are all garbage and old goods left by the super-civilization of the year, and they can't exert their full power, they are more powerful than human countries, and how to deal with the kind of biochemical machines, biochemical ships, and engineering beasts that I saw in Clam City last time that obviously didn't exert their full strength
- These are biochemical weapons that are very similar to his swarm, and they are also known for their numbers, not necessarily worse than his swarm, so the final balance will not take advantage of anything.
The ancient god-level evolutionaries of the Tianping Organization, as well as those behind the ruling, take the powerful guys who almost killed him before and don't know if it was a level 5 or 6 guy as an example, these single humanoid nuclear bombs with the ability to destroy cities, he is even more unsure.
At present, the strategy that Zhong Heng can think of can only take the absolute number to pile up, set up an elite death squad in the swarm, and take the giant moth that is not weaker than a small nuclear bomb after the magic reform, and the land patrol insect to blow up, there is no other better.
Even, the weakest human being among the three major opponents, is far from being able to fight it on its own - don't forget those black technology fighters that appear all over the city, proving that humans also have black technology weapons!
There is also the nuclear bomb, a big killer weapon, and there is no way to deal with it.
It's like doing physics problems and you can assume an absolutely smooth condition without considering friction, but is this possible in reality? It is still not negligible in actual combat.
However, these are all far away, anyway, the final balance that can be done in terms of strategic deployment has been done, and it can be regarded as having a clear conscience.
When the work here was done, he turned his gaze to one last place, the one that he couldn't leave because of the title "Evolver":
Improve your own strength!
