"Just now, I adjusted the game model with Qianyan, and made a few deductions, confirming that today's situation verified a previous inference......"

On the bridge of the command ship of the Golden Crow, Xia Ming rubbed his eyebrows and said to Professor Xu's image. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"In the past six months, the super horse whip has been responsible for decision-making and controlling behavior with intelligence rather than intelligence, only seeking to achieve goals, following the principle of maximizing efficiency and optimizing benefits."

"Today it will release stealth warships, and it will also develop a marine unit to try to capture our warships and crews, indicating that it is beginning to realize that this high-dimensional space-time fragment has a defense mechanism that it is not yet aware of. This is neither the wreckage of a high-dimensional universe after the collapse, nor the normal living body of a high-dimensional universe. So, it wanted to get some new information from a different perspective. ”

"Intelligence can't make this kind of decision, even if it's an intelligence like Qianyi, without some chance and having to simulate the high-dimensional cosmic consciousness with me, it won't understand such a composition. It was only the higher intelligence that was aroused by their curiosity and postponed the execution of the previously set goal to find out what was going on with this fragment of the high-dimensional universe. ”

Professor Xu nodded: "The technology that can shield all electromagnetic waves is not very complicated in principle, and if the gravitational wave radar is mature, electromagnetic wave stealth is not of much significance, not to mention, if you are on the scene, you can also find the existence of the other party through the induction of the chaotic strings, just like today, Ma Guling acted in advance by feeling to avoid major losses." ”

"Super Whip has no idea what power we have, or how you and Chiyi cooperate. In the past, we were able to achieve faster-than-light maneuvering, but it was regarded as a high-dimensional intelligence, that is, the ability possessed by Qianyi, and we were just mutated lifeforms under the control of Qianyi, which was essentially the same as the Ultra Horse Whip they controlled. Now it is beginning to realize that something is wrong, and it is beginning to test us to understand the difference between us humans and the mutated Matt Ball life. ”

Professor Xu said with a smile: "However, because of Ma Guling's troubles, this temptation did not achieve the desired effect, and maybe it will mislead its deduction." ”

Xia Ming also smiled, indeed, he couldn't have imagined that Ma Guling had a strong sense of the chaotic string movement of the same kind of mutants. This time, the intelligent existence behind the Ultra Mart's whip may have to scratch their heads for a while, after all, they are observing and controlling the Ultra Mart's whip from different cosmic scales.

Professor Xu's tone became solemn: "This is an opportunity......

Xia Ming nodded slowly: "The weaponization transformation of the Zhiyin core is almost complete, we can start preparing for the decisive battle, and seize such an opportunity in the decisive battle." ”

"Now that you've decided on your overall direction, I'm not worried. Next, I will work with Professor Hawking, or Dongfang Sheng, to study gravitational-wave radar. ”

Professor Xu explained: "For other things, I am only worried about Ma Guling, this race is very interesting, it seems to be the key to the human race to get out of the predicament, but it may also lead the human race to another predicament, you have to deal with it carefully." ”

After ending the communication with Professor Xu, Xia Ming thought about it, extracted the information of the battle just now from Sun Xing, and looked at it carefully.

The Eagle Formation had returned, and in the Maguling living cabin in the depths of the lord's aircraft carrier, Tang 19 was surrounded by the juniors in the center again, and it once again slapped the Maguling present with its tail feathers. Unlike the situation where you could only draw the front row before the battle, this time every Marguling can be drawn, which makes everyone very sad.

As for the casualties of their kind, they have long been mentally prepared, after all, the same is true of the humans who created them. To a large extent, the creation of the maguling stems from this kind of pressure that humans face. For the maguings, this is the meaning of their existence, the ultimate philosophical question of "where they came from and where they are going", and for every maguing, from the moment they are born, there is already an answer.

But they are not artificial intelligence after all, but carbon-based advanced intelligent life like humans, even if they are good at rational thinking, sensibility is still the core element that dominates their lives. Whether it is the death or injury of the same kind or the death of comrades-in-arms, they will have strong feelings of sadness.

Tang 19 In addition to being sad, the whole "ball" is still shrouded in a depressed mood, although they have done the right thing, but Lao Hong's assessment is also correct, disobeying orders and acting without authorization is the most intolerable thing in the military system, which has nothing to do with human beings or Ma Guling. However, Ma Guling's disobedience cast a haze over their first battle, which made Tang 19 extremely worried about Ma Guling's future fate.

"If Ma Guling's future relationship with humans degenerates to the existence of pets like cats and dogs, rather than comrades and partners, then I am the culprit", Tang 19 thought to himself, his tail feathers wilting and swaying.

The next moment, it was startled by a communication, and Sun Xing, the gei of the Legion Headquarters, told it to be ready to talk to the Legion Leader in 30 seconds. It subconsciously waged its tail feathers violently, and did not stop until Xia Ming's virtual image appeared.

"Looks like your spacesuit really needs to be redesigned......"

Xia Ming also noticed Tang 19's tail feathers that shook like a puppy.

Tang 19 whined with the suction hole at the top, and responded in the communication: "We also have this opinion, but we just think that this is a small detail and is not written in the report. ”

According to research, the Marguling's predecessor, Matt Ball Life, used the apical stomata to make sounds, which is their third mode of communication. Ma Guling grew up with humans, and his memories of his mother tongue are only a few remnants of what humans will call "mama" when they open their mouths, and this method has also been forgotten, but it is nature after all. Adding electronic whistles and subtitle tapes to their spacesuits also takes care of this nature.

"However, this will give humans the impression that you are more like pets, have you seriously considered it?"

As soon as Xia Ming finished speaking, Tang 19's tail feathers suddenly stiffened, making him secretly amused.

This was not the first time he had met Tang 19, to be honest, to be honest, to some extent, his perception of Ma Guling was somewhat close to Lao Hong, even if Ma Guling's wisdom was no different from that of people, it was still difficult for him to treat them as equals. Perhaps because Ma Guling was born to make sacrifices for human beings, the guilt and hidden worries mixed in his heart made him reluctant to communicate too much with Ma Guling.

However, every time I meet Tang 19, this feeling will be weakened by a point, Tang 19 will be very nervous in the face of him, and even often lose the line in the response, but when it comes to the problem of rationality, it shows similar characteristics to Xiaotang: good at restraint, and even divides his emotions, letting reason dictate his behavior.

"Objectively, there will be such a result, Legion Commander, but we wag our tail feathers just like human beings stretching the muscles on their faces, expressing kindness and joy with a smile, it is the nature of living beings, and we can't suppress this nature because of some social consequences, not to mention that we don't have a ...... face."

Tang 19's tail feathers shook slowly, and the transmission of text messages was also a little sluggish, obviously seriously considering the rhetoric, but the last sentence was a Xiaotang-style cold joke.

"General Hong has submitted your evaluation of Operation Eagle Eagles, and he highly appreciates your courage and loyalty......

Xia Ming said this, and saw Tang 19's tail feathers raised high, and suddenly gave birth to a feeling of facing young juniors.

He continued: "But he also highlighted your disobedience to orders, believing that you were not fit to be a soldier. ”

Tang 19 let out a long, low whistle, and the tail feathers hung down again.

Xia Ming finally said: "I still need to make a decision based on the opinions and circumstances of other parties, but as a representative of the human race, I would like to say about your performance in this battle...... Well done. ”

For a long time after the communication ended, Tang 19's tail feathers were still shaking violently.

Xia Ming connected to Lao Hong's communication again, discussed the details of the eaglet's operation, and then talked about Ma Guling.

Lao Hong's attitude has not changed: "What I am most worried about is that they will do things that we don't want to see because of their different understanding of their mission, which is not only related to our war with the Super Whip, but also related to what will happen to mankind in the future." ”

"If it's just about the army, I'm actually very satisfied with their performance in Operation Eagle, but the uncertainty they show is too risky, and no commander wants to have a force under his command that never knows if they will obey orders and what they will do next."

Xia Ming said: "The battleship of Ma Guling and the human combination performed well in Operation Eagle Eagle, so you can rest assured in this regard. ”

He sighed again: "The Gu Ling Machine Group is fighting alone, and it is normal to have such worries. If you are more serious, you should do more testing and observation to determine this matter, but ...... We don't have time. ”

"Human beings have been worried about what will happen after the emergence of real artificial intelligence, and perhaps the emergence of Maguling will give human beings a new understanding of this problem, provided that human beings can continue."

Lao Hong's eyebrows raised: "I understand, if a decision is made, I have a request." ”

The old man said with a lack of energy: "From the legion to the command system of the war group, join the post of communication with the Ma Gu Ling machine group, uh, I mean humans, not Ma Gu Ling." ”

Considering that there are many people with xenophobia like Lao Hong in the Cosmos Army, this request was approved, and the legion headquarters will add a director of affairs for Ma Guling, and a Ma Gu Ling coordinator will also be added to each battle group, so that the battle group leader no longer has to directly face Ma Guling.

Marguling's spacesuit has also been redesigned, with a gimbal added to one end of the balled spacesuit. Usually it can be coiled up, but when Ma Guling wants to wag his tail feathers, he pops them out. It's just that the tail feathers have to curl up, and it looks no different from a puppy or kitten waging its tail.

The gains and changes brought by Operation Eagle are far more than these things of Ma Guling, the appearance of stealth biochemical warships has made the Biological Research Center of the Stellar Academy of Sciences and the Physics Research Center busy, they are very curious about the principle of the ultra-Mart whip to achieve electromagnetic wave stealth through biological means, and believe that the research will make mankind a big step forward in the full-spectrum stealth technology of electromagnetic waves.

At the same time, on stealth warships, the ganglia that realizes the stealth function has also made mankind's understanding of heavy ion guns a step further, and the research that has been stagnant has gained an opportunity for breakthroughs.

At present, there are only three kinds of weapons used by mankind in space warfare: electromagnetic railguns, missiles/nuclear bombs, and lasers, all of which have their own characteristics, but none of them are satisfactory main battle weapons.

The electromagnetic cannon not only has a slow rate of fire, but also a slow shell speed, which is only suitable for medium and close-range engagements within three thousand kilometers, and only has monotonous kinetic damage. The Academy of Sciences has been researching the retrofitting of warheads with greater lethality, but progress in this area has been limited due to the presence of electromagnetic fields and intense g-forces.

Nuclear bombs are the only weapons of mass destruction currently in the hands of mankind, and although they are not effective in space, they are still the best weapons against biological and chemical groups and large biological and chemical warships. Now the heavy missiles of Younas and Starlink are equipped with nuclear warheads, and the strategic nuclear missile with a yield of more than 10 million tons is the only weapon capable of threatening the Ultra Whip itself.

However, the use of nuclear bombs is extremely limited, and the effective combat distance of missiles carrying nuclear warheads has two ranges, one is within 100 kilometers close to the face, and the other is between 1,000 and 10,000 kilometers. In previous battles, in order to send the nuclear bomb into the battleship as much as possible to detonate, Younas's manned fighters often withstood the fierce fire of the biochemical warship, approaching the battleship to launch missiles at a distance of dozens of kilometers, and this distance is not as difficult for the anti-aircraft fire of the biochemical warship as shooting people with a pistol from 5 meters away.

Lasers appear to be the best general-purpose weapon, with a quick response and precise positioning, with an effective range of up to 100,000 kilometers against biological and chemical warships. Neither the Ultra Whip nor humans have yet had the technology to make a spacecraft several hundred meters long and with a mass of hundreds of thousands of tons complete a violent maneuver in 300 milliseconds.

But the weakness of the laser is also obvious, the energy is insufficient, and it takes several seconds to catch up with the damage effect of the electromagnetic gun, and for large warships, the attack of the high-energy laser is too easy to defend, and most of the damage can be reduced by relying on intelligent spectrum recognition and reflection. Therefore, lasers are basically used to deal with biochemical fighters and fragments, and anti-ship laser cannons are basically used to suppress and consume the intelligence of biochemical warships, which are only auxiliary weapons.

The heavy ion cannon is the ideal new generation of space weapons, and it is the latest development of the plasma engine. It can be said that the plasma engine is the mother machine of a series of technologies, the improvement technology of the electromagnetic railgun comes from it, the basic technology of taking the stellar simulator route to achieve controllable nuclear fusion also comes from it, and the heavy ion engine that makes space travel faster and more flexible is also a further development.

To put it simply, the heavy ion cannon is to bundle the plasma ejected by the heavy ion engine, condense it into a plasma cluster that has accumulated powerful energy, project it onto the target, and use the energy released by the plasma cluster to achieve destruction. Because the energy comes from the Coulomb force between the particles, the destructive effect on matter is also based on the particle level.

In the past, this weapon was also called a "plasma cannon" in science fiction works, but now it has been confirmed that not all "plasma" (plasma) can be used as a weapon. With the existing technology, only a large mass neutral particle can be relied on to achieve a satisfactory damage effect. Just like a heavy ion engine, it relies on the injection of large neutral ions to achieve a thrust close to that of an atmospheric jet engine.

The principle is simple, but there are too many obstacles to implementation, and the biggest difficulty is the tightening of heavy ion clusters. Once heavy ions leave the magnetic field that confines them, they quickly escape, which is not a problem on the engine used for propulsion, but it becomes a big problem when used to bombard targets at long distances.

In the past science fiction works, many ideas have been made to overcome this difficulty, such as the Zerg air defense unit in "Starship Troopers", which wraps the plasma cluster with a slime bubble, and the fictional particle in "Gundam", which is specially used to restrain the plasma cluster and open the way for it to bombard the target, and the Japanese are really perfunctory. As for the plasma cannon that can be used by a single soldier in science fiction works such as "Halo", it is completely a black technology beyond the existing scientific system.

The Academy of Star Alliance Sciences has not been able to break through this difficulty, the ultra-horse whip invasion, and the biological and chemical fighters and warships actually use heavy ion cannons, which inspired the Academy of Sciences. However, because the other party is taking the biological route, the principle is similar to the Zerg ion cannon in "Starship Troopers", liquefiing a special gelatin, pulling out an extremely thin outer layer to wrap the plasma cluster, if humans want to take this route, they have to come up with a complete set of biochemical conversion systems, which will not work at all.

However, the emergence of stealth biochemical warships has brought inspiration, and the technology of shielding full-spectrum electromagnetic waves can be used to wrap ion clusters as long as they are improved. The advent of heavy ion cannons should not be far off.

The decisive battle conceived by Xia Ming, the heavy ion cannon is just a small technical detail, and the further expansion of the Star Alliance Space Force is the core, which is not only the expansion of the scale, but also the improvement of the system.

The modified "Constellation" class cruiser of the Golden Crow is about to enter service, which is a major change in the space fleet. This kind of cruiser named after each constellation sums up the experience of the Golden Crow, and will serve as the backbone of the warband, allowing the Star Alliance Fleet to take a big step towards the goal of "big ships and giant guns".

In addition to the Lord-class light aircraft carriers, the "Overlord" class standard aircraft carriers will also enter service in a few months. This kind of warship, which can carry thousands of fighters and is exclusive to the Maguling troops, will replace the manned fighters of Younas and take on the task of fleet protection and intensive attack.

As for Younas's unhappiness, Xia Ming couldn't care about it. In the future decisive battle, dozens or even hundreds of such motherships will be needed, and the fighters will be innumerable, and Younas's troops will not be able to fill this hole.

The expansion of capital ships and aircraft carriers will lead to a sharp increase in the number of small warships. Thankfully, the one-man battleship scheme of the Maguling and the humans has proven to work, and with this, the small warship can be immediately expanded to three times the current size.

However, the overall expansion plan depends on ...... The number of margulins.

Just like genetically modified crops, maguing embryos can only be cultivated through bionic maguing mothers, and they cannot reproduce naturally. Moreover, before cloning the gene pool of margulin, there is no rush to carry out natural fertility research on margulin, otherwise it will be difficult to ensure that there will be genetic variation like human inbreeding.

The difficulty is the cultivation of Ma Guling, even if it is the Star Alliance plus Younas, the total number of people is less than 100,000, and everyone raising a Ma Gu Ling is not enough to meet the requirements for the number of Ma Gu Ling, not to mention that not everyone is suitable and willing to raise Ma Gu Ling.

Xia Ming told Xiaotang about the problem, and Xiaotang and her scientists quickly found a new cultivation plan.

The cultivation process of Ma Guling is divided into two stages, one is the basic cultivation of one-to-many, and a Ma Gu Ling expert cultivates a group of Ma Gu Ling like a kindergarten teacher, and teaches them the basic three views and common sense. Then enter the basic school, where further thinking and skills are taught while observing their respective talents. They are then sent to different academies according to their talent and will, and trained to operate fighter jets, cooperate with humans to operate warships, or do other auxiliary work.

It only takes three months for Maguling to reach physiological maturity, and after another three months of study, he can be competent for general work. It's like the human education assembly line from kindergarten to university, but more than ten years are condensed into half a year.

As for the fact that these Magulings can't be brought up by an adoptive owner like the original Maguling, whether there will be some psychological problems as a result, I can't care about it at this time.

All the pressure was given to the original batch of Ma Guling, as well as the humans who cooperated with Ma Guling to drive the ship.

"Hello, I'm Ma Guling Liu A3811G, are you my master?"

Li Jingze happily got into the cockpit of his newly issued female cicada destroyer, and a mechanical ball with a gimbal tail floated in front of him, and the ticking electronic sound was accompanied by the subtitles on the light band in the middle of the ball, stuffing a message into his mind that seemed to contain the power of the desolation that he could not fully understand for a while.

"Uh...... I'm Lee Kyung-taek...... What master, is your foster a Fate chef? ”

Lee Kyung-taek felt a lot of pressure...... (To be continued.) )
