Chapter 768: Feeding War with Battle
Yu Tianba asked Yang Yi this question, in fact, he hoped that Yang Yi would accept it when he saw it.
Although Yu Tianba didn't say it explicitly, the meaning was very clear.
Wanluo War Emperor is finished, the Lei Ling Clan is no longer a problem, and it won't be long before the Galactic Alliance can be unified. Because of the full support of the Star Soul Empress and the great contribution made by the Human Expeditionary Force, the status of the Human Federation in the Galactic Alliance will inevitably be greatly improved, even if it cannot become a top-level civilization, it can become a high-level civilization. As for the Silicon Charm Alliance of the Northern Alpha Galaxy, as long as the Dragon God Empress is still there, it will be difficult to pose a threat to the Galactic Alliance. Therefore, in Yu Tianba's opinion, the war with the Silicon Charm Alliance should be ended as soon as possible, even if it is necessary to lose some vested interests, so as to obtain a period of peace, and the Human Federation can only develop and grow in peacetime. If the war continues, even if the final victory is achieved, even if the Silicon Phantom Alliance is completely eliminated, the Human Federation will not be able to make other civilizations bow down because it does not have the absolute strength to dominate the Galactic Alliance, and it will not be able to obtain the fruits of victory. At that time, for the sake of vested interests, in order to divide the fruits of victory, the Galactic Alliance may even break out into a civil war because of this. For the Human Federation, which is not strong in terms of overall strength, it is difficult to have an advantage in the civil war, and it is even impossible to keep everything now.
On the contrary, if the war with the Silicon Phantom Alliance ends here, even if war breaks out again in a few hundred years, the Human Federation can use these hundreds of precious years of precious time to grow and become the most powerful civilization in the Galactic Alliance, or at least one of the most powerful civilizations, so as to hold absolute dominance in the next war. When the time comes, not to mention defeating the Silicon Charm Alliance, even defeating other top civilizations will not be a problem.
It must be admitted that Yu Tianba is very sensible and sees it thoroughly, and the questions raised do exist.
It's just that Yu Linglong didn't support Yu Tianba's proposal, but she didn't object either.
In fact, the key is whether the Human Federation can defeat the Silicon Phantom Alliance alone, or achieve the final victory with the limited support of other civilizations.
Of course, the conclusion that Yu Tianba came to was actually related to the way he thought about the problem.
That is, he looked at this war from a traditional point of view, and came to the conclusion that without a strong fleet, it was impossible to completely eliminate the Silicon Charm Alliance.
Obviously, herein lies the problem.
Yu Tianba didn't know that in the battle of the expedition to the Northern Alpha Galaxy, Yang Yi had already discovered that it was not the fleet that decided the outcome of the battle, but the soldiers, to be precise, the legion composed of soldiers. It can be said that as long as the strength of the soldiers can be brought into full play, even if there is no fleet, it can still influence the trend of the war. The premise is that the strength of the fighters must be brought into play, and the key is obviously not the battleship.
Previous battles have proven that as long as there are enough fighters and provide these fighters with powerful space fighters, they can achieve a huge advantage on the space battlefield, even if they encounter the enemy's fleet, the space fighters piloted by the soldiers have the ability to fight.
Obviously, it is much easier to build a space fighter than a warship.
Although with the technology of the Human Federation, it is simply impossible to build a space fighter with advanced performance that can fully exert the strength of the soldiers. You must know that before the outbreak of the war, only four legendary fighters in the third war zone reached this level, and these four legendary fighters were provided by the Hidden Spirit Clan, and the Human Federation could not build them. But now that there is the support of the Weaver Clan, and a large number of valuable materials that cannot be obtained in peacetime through the expedition to the North Alpha Galaxy, and the Jade family has also built several fighter production lines, it is no longer a problem to manufacture space fighters in batches. Don't forget, before Yang Yi returned, the Yu family had already provided the Human Expeditionary Force with 20,000 space fighters tailored for soldiers, arming 20,000 officers and soldiers of the two legions. It is in this way that Yang Yi can return to the North Fourth District with peace of mind.
Relying on the 20,000 soldiers with space fighters of the two advance legions, Yang Yi achieved the greatest victory in the history of the Galactic Alliance, even if the real main force is the main force of the Weaver Clan, it is enough to prove that as long as there are enough soldiers, as long as there are enough space fighters, even if there is no fleet, the human legion can sweep through the North Alpha Galaxy, and even completely wipe out the Silicon Charm Alliance.
As for the mass production of space fighters, this is not a problem at all.
Jade Linglong made it clear that before they came to their home system, the Weavers had provided all the technology to build advanced space fighters, including the technology to make small origin converters for space fighters. In addition, the Weaver Clan will also send technical experts to provide on-site guidance to help the Jade Family's engineers master these techniques. As long as the Jade family asks for it, the Weaver Family can also provide samples and complete sets of production lines. As for the key raw materials, the Yu family's reserves alone are enough to produce 100,000 space fighters and supporting small origin converters. Because the main raw materials come from the North Alpha system, and the route to the North Alpha system has been unimpeded, after the production lines of several space fighters are running at full speed, tens of thousands of space fighters can be provided every month to arm all the soldiers of a legion.
In fact, among the human expeditionary forces remaining in the North Alpha Galaxy, the other two legions have obtained all the space fighters and have reached a state of full readiness. Counting the previous two advance legions, there are now 40,000 soldiers in four legions who have space fighters. Because the main army of the Weaver Clan did not withdraw, according to the report sent by Yuyang, it was enough to deal with the attack launched by the Phantom Ghost Emperor.
It's just that the speed of building a space fighter is clearly not fast enough.
10,000 planes a month, not to mention expanding the scale of the expeditionary force, it will take more than a year to arm the soldiers of the remaining sixteen legions.
Fortunately, increasing the productivity of space fighters is not too much of a problem.
According to Yu Linglong, after all the support provided by the Weaver Clan is in place, especially after the assembly line for the production of space fighters arrives, the monthly output of space fighters can at least double. In fact, the key is not that there are not enough production lines, but that the Yu family does not have enough skilled workers. However, this is a temporary problem. The Yu family has been recruiting workers, and there is also a system for training workers. As long as there is enough time, enough skilled workers can be trained. In Yu Linglong's words, it is a matter of half a year to a year. To put it simply, increasing production capacity is a process that cannot be achieved overnight, whether it is building a production line or training skilled workers, it takes time.
Of course, it is impossible for Yang Yi to increase the size of the expeditionary force dozens of times overnight, and there is no need for this.
If it is only to deal with the threat of the Silicon Alliance, the Expeditionary Force has enough troops now, and there is no need to form and use more legions. It's just that in the long run, if you want to capture the entire Northern Alpha system and completely eliminate the Silicon Charm Alliance, the expeditionary force needs more troops. Of course, the internal problems of the Galactic Alliance must be solved first before we can talk about eliminating the Silicon Charm Alliance, so time is not too big a problem.
For this reason, Yang Yi also made a request, and Yu Linglong gave an affirmative answer.
That is, can the existing twenty legions be brought to full combat readiness within a year?
Yu Linglong gave a positive answer, that is, it can provide 160,000 space fighters to arm the 160,000 soldiers of the other 16 legions within a year.
It's just that Yu Linglong also raised a difficult problem.
It is not a problem to build a space fighter and a small original energy converter to accompany it, but it is a big problem to build a space memory for space fighters. It's not that the Weavers don't provide the relevant technology, it's that the raw materials used to make the space storage are too rare. Although Yu Linglong has contacted Yuyang and asked Yuyang to find a way in the Northern Alpha System, it is still difficult to increase the production of space storage in the short term. Without enough space storage, soldiers will not be able to carry space fighters with them, and combat operations will be limited. In Yu Linglong's words, in order to obtain enough raw materials, it is necessary to occupy more star systems in the North Alpha system, which requires more troops. It's just that Yu Linglong has also made a guarantee, as long as there are raw materials, it can provide enough space storage in the short term. The reason is also simple, the difficulty of producing space storage is very low, so the production efficiency is very high.
Obviously, the problem has turned back.
If the war with the Silicon Alliance is ended, even with the support of the Weavers, the status of the Human Federation in the Galactic Alliance has improved, and even if it becomes the overlord of the Galactic Alliance, it may not be able to defeat the Silicon Alliance in the future, because the military power of the Human Federation may not be able to grow rapidly.
In fact, this is also the main reason why Yang Yi advocates fighting.
The point is that the Silicon Charm Alliance is in the weakest period in history, and there is only one War Emperor left, and he is not the most powerful. If this is the end of the war and gives the Silicon Alliance a respite, it will definitely have to pay an even greater price in the future to achieve victory. If you seize this opportunity and defeat the Silicon Charm Alliance, even if you fail to lay a solid foundation, as long as the military power of the Human Federation can deter other civilizations, the situation will not get out of control. Obviously, as long as it continues to develop according to Yang Yi's ideas, then at the end of this war, the military strength of the Human Federation will definitely be able to reach its peak state and surpass the other civilizations of the Galactic Alliance.
More importantly, what Yang Yi wants to build is not a conventional military force, but a military force that is mainly composed of soldiers, or even completely composed of soldiers. This means that there is no need for too many warships, not too many transport ships, and no huge support difficulties. The most important thing is that a legion composed entirely of soldiers will not be too burdensome on the construction of the Human Federation in other aspects. In other words, maintaining such a military force will not have a negative impact on the development of the Human Federation, and will even play a positive role in promoting it, that is, a military force that is proud of the world and can win the space and resources needed for the development of the Human Federation.
That being the case, why a truce? (To be continued.) )
