Episode 16 Chapter 22: Ambushed

"Eleven hours, forty-two minutes, and thirty-one seconds before the target reaches the coordinate point......"

Yao Yuan sat in the captain's room with red eyes, looking at the electronic clock showing the last moment, he had stayed up for two days and two nights without sleeping, it was not that he didn't want to sleep, in fact, he was very tired, and he hadn't taken any rest for thirty-six consecutive hours, but his excitement or extreme nervousness at the moment made him unable to close for a second.

"FΓΌhrer, you must sleep!"

Barbie stood behind Yao Yuan, her eyes were slightly moist, her face was red, as if she had just cried, but she still said to Yao Yuan with a serious face.

Yao Yuan smiled bitterly and was about to say something, Barbie immediately retorted: "After eleven hours and forty-two minutes, you will have to fight with a large number of interstellar soldiers, or whether you sleep or not is your free right, and outsiders have no right to interfere, but please also ask you to accompany you to fight, believe in you, and follow you to the death, soldiers, think about it, as the core and main force in this ambush battle, your combat power will decline, and the combat time will decrease, and the direct effect will probably be their total annihilation, so ......"

Yao Yuan was silent, and only nodded after a moment and said, "Then when I go to sleep ten standard rests, please wake me up after ten hours, no matter what sleep state I am in, at the same time...... Any C-level or higher emergencies must wake me up, then, I'll go to sleep. ”

Barbie didn't say anything, but stood there in a standard military posture, and Yao Yuan walked to his lounge after passing her, he was a qualified soldier, and he was the most elite kind in the original earth era, and it was common sense to rest on the battlefield at any time, even if he was anxious in his heart, once he made up his mind to rest, it would only take tens of seconds to lie down in bed. He had fallen asleep.

In such a state of deep sleep, I don't know how long it has been, but suddenly he turned over and saw that two officers and Barbie had already entered his lounge, and the electronic clock hanging on the wall showed that he had only slept for more than two hours.

"What's wrong?!"

Yao Yuan slapped his face vigorously, then stood up without caring about anything and asked sharply, one of the officers immediately saluted and said, "Five minutes and forty seconds ago, as expected before the battle." The enemy fleet was already about to catch up with the advance team, and then fell into the pre-arranged Genesis Particle Cover Void Thunder Group, which caused damage to the enemy fleet to more than 5,000 warship groups, about 80 percent lower than expected...... But then, the enemy's main battleship group came to a standstill, and they did not move forward. Instead, it stayed where it was, and the observation was measured by the explosive glow of the Void Thunder Swarm and the enemy's Genesis Particle coverage. ”

Yao Yuan thought about it, and after sobering up his head slightly, he immediately said, "Has five minutes and forty seconds passed in time?" The enemy fleet has not yet made any moves? Didn't even catch up with the advance troops? ”

The officer nodded, and said no more.

Yao Yuan walked around anxiously, and only after more than ten seconds did he say: "Let's go, let's go to the command center, this issue is very critical." It had to be figured out right away. ”

The core of this ambush strategy is that the enemy fleet has been found to have a habit of tracking a target to the death, and will not do anything else until the target is completely silent, in this case, it is theoretically impossible for the evacuees of the second line of defense to return to the capital of the bright moon, the reason is that the difference in the speed of the conventional space voyage between the two sides, the speed of one to four, from the second line of defense to the capital of the bright moon. This retreating force will be pursued no matter what......

Because of this. The importance of this ambush was revealed, and once it failed. These nearly 200,000 civilians and defense forces will be destroyed, and it is precisely by taking advantage of the characteristics of this artificial intelligence fleet that they will be brought into this encirclement, where there are sixteen complete interstellar warbands, the remaining warship groups of the First Fleet of the new solar system, and the most important and ultimate means of fighting this unknown fleet......

Gravity Gun Battleship Cluster ......

A total of more than 140 specially modified gravity ships, smaller than frigates, without any armed equipment of their own, all the space has been replaced with energy systems, energy shield systems, and gravity gun systems, and even the ships of this battleship cluster themselves, its speed is similar to that of the Hope-class battleship, which does not reflect the flexible advantage of its small size, and its main role is as literally said, gravity gun group operations.

At the operational command center, a large number of staff officers had been arguing there for a long time, and when Yao Yuan entered, everyone immediately stopped arguing, and then saluted Yao Yuan.

Yao Yuan returned the salute and immediately asked, "Tell me all the possibilities you discussed, all the possibilities, the movements of the enemy fleet, the possible purpose, and the reasons why you stopped, all of them." ”

Among this group of staff officers, there were Qi Xiaoniao and Ren Tao, but the two did not speak, just frowned and looked at the 3D stereoscopic image of the fleet on the table, at this time, one of the staff officers said: "FΓΌhrer, judging from our analysis, the biggest possibility is ...... This AI fleet has reached the tipping point of loss in its mission. ”

"As we have guessed before, this fleet is looking for something, and until they find something like that, they will continue with the current tactical system, that is, they will not fear any losses, occupy our buildings and fleets with minimal destruction, and at the same time ignore the rest of the targets, and will only focus on their most stubborn targets, but all this is premised on the fact that they need that thing or that person, but when the damage has reached the limit of their tolerance, that is, they will continue, When this AI civilization is likely to be destroyed as a result, then its program's first priority will inevitably be adjusted to preserve the AI program itself, as well as destroy any existence that is not its subject. ”

"The loss of these last thousands of ships is likely to have just reached the limit of this civilization's endurance."

After Yao Yuan heard all these words, he also fell into contemplation, in fact, this inference is the mainstream voice of the General Staff, and he also has such a feeling, nearly 1.8 million alien spaceships, so far there are only more than a million left, the key is that the super energy storm of the second line of defense is too terrifying, almost beyond the weapon creation technology of the peak of the third-level cosmic civilization, and nearly 600,000 or even more alien spaceships have been destroyed with one shot, that is, this fleet has almost lost more than half.

In any combat power, half of the number is almost a critical point, once the loss of more than half, there is a possibility of being completely annihilated, in other words, the probability of this possibility is still very large......

Another staff officer also said: "There may be another reason, that is, this fleet is about to reach the critical tolerance value, so this fleet has decided to take a more conservative attitude towards the dark mines that may exist in the area covered by the genesis particles ahead, that is, after the advance force is far away, after the genesis particles there dissipate, the dark mines will be detonated and then pursued, after all, their technology is much more advanced than ours, and the speed of four to one can catch up with the advance team in any way." ”

"Of course, it is not excluded that there will be another tactical change......"

Yao Yuan nodded, and asked Qi Xiaoniao and the others, "What do you think will be the reason?" ”

The two glanced at each other and shook their heads, Qi Xiaoniao frowned and said, "It's not clear, the chances of the above two possibilities are very high, but...... Something is not right with the unhurried speed of this fleet...... In fact, judging from the simulation calculations, they should have caught up more than forty minutes ago, but the time difference has changed by more than forty minutes, which is a little wrong, although the reason for this has not been figured out, but there must be something we don't know......"

Yao Yuan asked again: "Is it possible that the tipping point is about to be reached, so it will be cautious?" ”

Ren Tao smiled and said, "Do you think it's a creature?" The other party is artificial intelligence, there is no such idea, that is, the critical point has not been reached, everything is carried out according to the program, if the critical point is reached, then it will be carried out according to the program immediately, and this is the current situation...... It gives people an inexplicable uneasiness. ”

Yao Yuan also knew that he couldn't ask anything if he asked, and now it could be said that he couldn't reach the whip, so he could only suppress the uneasiness in his heart and said: "Continue to observe, the main force ...... Staying still, I continued to rest, and everything went according to plan. ”

In this way, after Yao Yuan slept for more than four hours, he was woken up again, and this time everyone he saw had a frightened and even terrifying expression like a ghost...... Was the advance party caught up? So......

"No, the main AI force is not catching up with the advance team, in fact, the main AI force is coming ......towards the Bright Moon Capital, or the ambush circle, at a constant speed," the reporter said.

Yao Yuan immediately sensed some of the information, and he asked, "The main force of artificial intelligence is advancing towards us...... And what about the advance team? What really happened to the advance team? ”

In the command center, with Yao Yuan's questioning, the entire 3D stereoscopic image of the battlefield suddenly appeared, representing that a violent explosion was taking place in the bright position of the advance team, indicating that a fierce battle was taking place there.

"Three minutes ago, the advance team encountered an artificial intelligence fleet at its location, this fleet belongs to a branch fleet, the number is estimated to be about ten to two hundred thousand warships, this fleet ambushed the advance team......"

"At the same time, the main fleet of artificial intelligence still maintains a constant speed and has bypassed the advance team and marched towards the capital of the bright moon, judging from the calculation data, it will enter the ambush circle in about one hour and seventeen minutes......"

In an instant, Yao Yuan, who understood all this, immediately turned red in his eyes......
