The video surveillance sent back by the drone in front of the four fleets fed back in front of the headquarters of the four fleets, and the sine wave released a full 50 billion massive shuttles to fly in magnetic coil mode, expanding the flagship with a diameter of 150 kilometers to the shield protection range with a diameter of more than 10,000 kilometers, which is equivalent to a planet. The diameter of the Earth is only 12,700 kilometers.

The sine wave flew in this way for about an hour and is still continuing. After the morale boost, back to the beginning of the question, the sine wave has always been a very calm flight, why show its combat power with great fanfare at this time?

Most people's understanding is that it is a way to show off as a way to intimidate and intimidate opponents, and its biggest opponent at the moment is the Great Ming from the Lighthouse Star. Bai Ziying put forward her different opinion: "It is possible that it is conducting military exercises. ”

"Military exercises?" The crowd was incomprehensible.

"It is possible to show off force and military exercises, or both," Xiaoying said. Its military exercises are not like those of us humans. The main purpose of our military exercises is to train, temper, verify, and evaluate the effectiveness of the command system and various combat units. and tactical coordination.

"The machine clan is different, its strategy and tactics have been generated in its database, when there is a war, it only needs to calculate, analyze, what kind of strategy and tactics are suitable for the current battlefield, it will be what kind of strategy and tactics from the database, for war deployment.

"Therefore, seemingly unnecessary military exercises are essentially a kind of daily maintenance of equipment."

Xiaoying made such a final summary, and said in the case of everyone's suspicion: "This is like the equipment we use daily, such as various machines, if not used for a long time, it cannot have the effect of prolonging the service life, the correct thing to do is to take it out from time to time and start it." That's why the sine wave does this, and it doesn't want to show off to us. ”

I see.

Afterwards, once, when Xiaoying and Summer were chatting alone, Summer asked, "Do you think that this sine wave, it does not have the logical thinking ability similar to that of humans?" ”

Xiaoying said: "I'm not sure about this, it's also my own guess. After all, we have never encountered a machine civilization yet, and the sine wave will be the first one we will encounter. ”

Summer fell into contemplation.

Xiaoying asked, "Chief, are you ......?"

"What is it?" Summer stopped thinking and asked.

"A little greedy?" Xiaoying asked tentatively, and then said, "Chief, forgive me for being rude." ”

"Haha," Xia smiled, "I really can't hide it from you, I'm greedy, when I know it has 50 billion combat units, to be honest, I'm very greedy." I think again, when will I be able to have so many combat units. ”

"But how many people do you need?" Xiaoying sighed.

Xia Chang sighed and said: "Yes, who made us the civilization of the human race, it can't be like the crew civilization, just need a central computer, what we need is a large population." 50 billion combat units, even if they all use drones, the demand for the population is huge.

"We calculate according to the ratio of 1:1000, that is, a military personnel must have a population reserve of at least 1,000 people behind them, and 50 billion combat units, even if they all use drones, then they need at least 100 million military personnel, which will be a terrifying number.

"Behind 100 million military personnel, a thousand times the population reserve is needed to support it, that is 100 billion people! When will I reach this scale? And it must be a native Ming person. ”

Xiaoying smiled: "Take your time, chief, the road of civilization is very long, thousands of years, ten thousand years, in the long river of time in the universe, that time is fleeting. ”

"But the population plan is about to usher in epoch-making progress," said Summer, "not long after you left, our scientists, who were actually your classmates, several of them joined forces with the emissary's scientists to develop the technology of multiple sperm in one egg." ”

"Oh?" Xiaoying asked with interest, "What kind of technology is it?" ”

"Through artificial in vitro fertilization, one egg can receive more than 10 sperm at the same time. In other words, one fertilized egg can reproduce more than ten embryos. ”

"Huh?" Xiaoying opened her mouth in surprise, "This is incredible"

"That's the reason, so in population engineering, the willingness of gene banks to be top secret is this, which can effectively prevent ethical embarrassment."

"But chief, will this lead to a genetic catastrophe?"

"I don't know," Xia said, "theoretically no, because every child has been genetically enthroned since he was an embryo, and blood relatives within three generations have a genetic watch alarm, so it is theoretically relatively safe." But nothing is absolute. For the cutting-edge technology of multiple sperm in one egg, it is also very cautious at present. ”

Since the Ming Navy set out, the population reproduction program has been suspended, but the seed collection has not stopped. The original Ming people who are in the secret realm and in the expedition fleet, as long as they are adults, must continue to collect eggs and sperm.

So judging from the current situation, the population of the Ming Dynasty has stopped growing, but the seed bank has not stopped collecting, as long as the war is over, a wave of population will come.

As for the polyspermia of one egg, it is still only in the stage of existence and theory, and due to the suspension of the population reproduction plan, the technology of polyspermia can only be demonstrated in practice after the end of the war.

Through repeated reconnaissance of the sine wave, the information on the sine wave has become more and more abundant and detailed, and the data of the combat units have become more and more accurate.

A flagship, the No. 1, had a sine wave count in a hexadecimal system, and there were 12,288 battleships, numbered from 1000 to 3FFF (Note). There are 68,719,476,736 shuttles, and the number of the shuttle is accurate to the single digit and is estimated based on its 16 prohibited numbers. Designators from 0000000000 to FFFFFFFFF.

The name of the central computer of the sine wave is Evil Dragon, a very domineering name, but Evil Dragon is very "low-key" and never communicates with Daming. When Da Ming had a very comprehensive information, the evil dragon finally broke the silence and sent a message to Da Ming, and the first to receive the information were of course Xia Deng on the Vanguard Huaxia and Bai Ziying on the Hulu Baby.

At this point, there was still a month left before the encounter. The information that comes with the dictionary is only a few words: Stupid creatures, are you ready? I have a gift for you.

The New Year is coming, and I am busy preparing New Year's goods, cleaning, washing clothes and quilts, and tidying up my daily life.

The unit is also busy with dogs.

I'm too busy to write. The manuscript is used up. The days when there is no manuscript are so hard to say.
