Chapter 778: Punching a child
Karatu System, USS Mercury Operational Command Center Room.
Since the one-minute countdown of the first-generation rice grain strike group, Aita has "empatheticly" removed the points, blocks, and circle icons of pure tactical performance, and used powerful computing power, combined with data from multiple sensors and enemy ship data from the main database, to simulate a real space stereoscopic star map in real time.
Of course, on this star map, there is also the explosive light flame raised from the previous second-generation rice grain strike round.
As time passed, the virtual camera also lifted from a first-generation rice grain, and followed the cluster of first-generation rice grains that had reached sub-light speed in a bird's-eye manner, sweeping towards the approaching group of enemy warships in front of it.
Gradually, the starlight and firelight in the distance got closer and closer, and then ...... One after another, light began to rise from the group of enemy ships in front of them.
In an instant, the enemy ship's interceptor secondary guns turned into a web of intertwined light.
The entire center of operations became silent.
Everyone clenched their fists nervously - although the first wave of second-generation rice grains directly destroyed the enemy's two most powerful super battleships, and also destroyed a large wave of destroyers, frigates, etc., which were extremely powerful in interception, but the number of second-generation rice grains was limited after all.
What really depends on the hit rate of a generation of rice grains!
In the past three years, the most brilliant hit rate of the first generation of rice grains has been only 15 percent.
And as we all know, air defense interception, once it is grouped, it can really form a death zone.
Although the current enemy is not hugged, it is clear that the distance between them is still enough to support each other and form a cross-secondary artillery interception net - isn't that the light network simulated by Aita?
The countdown was beating, and Rao knew that this was a simulation, and the real situation was far less dangerous, but the hearts of all the commanders were still in their throats.
Ye Ming put down the chicken leg bone in his hand, pulled a napkin to wipe off the grease stains on his mouth, and at the same time, an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Of course, Aita couldn't have been so empathetic about this kind of simulation.
Simulating this kind of "false and mixed" "air battle" picture is entirely because of Lao Qin's advice - not that Lao Qin wants to see it - although he does want to see it...... What I really want to see is someone else.
The Great Elder is now guarding the Taiyo Moon Base and watching the "live broadcast"!
And in order to show as many battlefield elements as possible on a limited projection scale, then many things have to become distorted.
For example, the much-criticized huddle charge in TV and movies, if you really want people to charge from person to person, then the enemy machine gunner is happy. But if you don't hold a group, then the whole picture will be sparse with a few people, will the audience be satisfied?
The same is true of the battlefield that Aita simulated.
Don't look at the interception light in the sky, it is like restoring the sky net, as if the rice grain is about to be destroyed by a hit in the next second, but in fact, those interception rays are miles away!
Finally, the missile was getting closer and closer, and the smile on the corner of Ye Ming's mouth disappeared, followed by a cautious face.
Because he also knows that the enemy's interception is really not covered, especially under such dense firepower.
In the projection, the camera zoomed out again, and everyone could see that the enemy's interception light had turned into a wall of light, and in the rice grain group, small fireworks also rose one after another.
Finally, when the virtual camera tracks a grain of rice through layers of fire and hits the enemy ship, the virtual battle screen disappears, and a real tactical map emerges.
Aita's voice rang out.
"All attack missions have been executed, operational records have been generated, and combat results are being counted, please wait a moment."
Ye Ming slowly clenched his fists and held his breath, waiting for time to pass.
The entire conference room was also silent - because enemy ships were in motion, to determine whether the target was destroyed or not, it was necessary to verify it from multiple angles, including whether the fire of the explosion was seen, whether the speed of the enemy ship was terminated, and so on.
"At the end of the statistics, 316 enemy ships were destroyed, and a total of 434 ships were destroyed in the stage."
Aita's voice fell, and the room fell silent for two seconds, then ......
"Good!"
"Beautiful!"
"Awesome !!"
Thunderous applause rose instantly, and all the commanders stood up at the same time.
Ye Ming also took a long breath and began to applaud vigorously with everyone.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
The Moon, Taiyo Command Center.
The same thunderous applause, and the same everyone stood up, accompanied by hearty laughter, these big guys who will shine brightly are all happy as if they are twenty years younger.
When the leader saw everyone standing up, he was embarrassed to sit anymore, and he also smiled and stood up and applauded.
A moment later, Yang Wenzhi's almost irrepressible laughing voice sounded in the hall.
"Report to the command center, the pre-missile strike plan was a major success! Annihilated a total of 434 enemy combat ships! Among them are two enemy super battleships! β
"Roger!" Qin Weiguo's body leaned forward slightly, he held the microphone, glanced at the leader, took a breath with a smile, and then said in a deep voice: "Wenzhi, your strike tactics are well arranged, please keep up the good work - there is still a hard battle waiting for you later!" β
"Understood!"
Ending the communication, Qin Wei took a breath and caught a glimpse of the leader raising his hand to signal everyone to sit down.
Everyone sat down again, and the leader's voice also sounded: "Comrade Weiguo, does this mean that we, the first wave of contact battles with the enemy, have destroyed the enemy's 430 warships beyond visual range without damage?" β
"Yes!" Qin Weiguo knew that the leader cared about the word "no damage", and then explained: "This space war is actually the same as our war thinking in the past few decades, which is to fire the enemy first, strike the enemy from outside the visual range, and annihilate the enemy thousands of miles away. β
The leader said humorously: "I'm afraid this isn't a thousand miles, right?" β
"Haha, yes, the current distance is about six light seconds, 1.8 million kilometers."
The leader nodded with a smile, and then sighed softly: "It seems that our development direction is really right, no matter how powerful the battleship is, the missiles must also be necessary, this kind of war will destroy one-fifth of the enemy before it makes contact...... It's scary to think about. β
Qin Weiguo nodded approvingly. At this moment, he thought of Ye Ming's speech when the community had not really been established - at that time, Ye Ming gave a development plan for the missile trilogy.
Not to mention the first generation of rice grains, the two-dimensional engine is continuously accelerated to finally reach the terminal speed of sub-light speed.
The second-generation rice grains are "super" the speed of light - the reason for the quotation marks is because the real average "displacement" speed of the second-generation rice grains does not exceed the speed of light.
Of course, this does not mean that the second-generation rice grain cannot be exceeded, but to exceed the speed of light throughout the whole process, the energy required is too great, and it only uses faster-than-light technology at the end - to be accurate from a technical point of view, it should be called curvature propulsion of rice grains.
And the third generation of rice grains...... According to Ye Ming, that would be a sign that human beings had stepped into a fourth-level civilization - rice grains could instantly reach any known corner through interdimensional behavior, just like the current over-distance communication.
At that time, humanity will be the true master of the three-dimensional universe.
Thinking of this, Qin Weiguo's heart swelled with an incomparable heroism, so much so that when he saw the star map in front of him...... Suddenly there was an illusion.
Humans are like a boxing champion bullying a bunch of kindergarten kids.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
On the Mercury, the applause faded away.
But the smile on everyone's face did not disappear, and there was still confidence on their faces.
I don't worry at all that I'm about to enter the real integrity confrontation stage.
Because...... This wave of mixed strikes of second-generation rice grains and first-generation rice grains has achieved unprecedented results!
In particular, the hit rate of the first generation of rice grains was at most 15 percent in the past, but after the second generation of rice grains targeted the interception ships first, the hit rate was close to 30 percent!
In just a few minutes, the enemy's fleet of nearly two thousand combat warships disappeared by one-fifth in an instant.
"Everyone is reserved, reserved."
Yang Wenzhi raised his right hand, suppressed the smile on his face, and pointed to the battle map: "The enemy is about to enter the firing range." β
"It's not us firing the cannon, it's useless to be reserved." Someone replied with a smile.
Yang Wenzhi coughed lightly.
In the past, when they were on the front line, they assigned all the combat orders, including the targets of each fleet. But today...... They have already left the front line, and according to Taiyo's operational requirements, although they still have the authority to control a single battleship, the specific firing order is still required to be completed by the real front line.
On the metaphorical side, it's about trusting the battlefield instincts of front-line commanders. And most fundamentally, it is necessary to respect the real front-line commanders who face war and death head-on.
It's like you can't have a soldier carry a gun on the battlefield and then you pull the trigger with a remote control in an underground fortress behind you for 108,000 miles.
In addition, these former enemy commanders, or fleet commanders, will definitely have less and less time to personally direct the firing of artillery in the future, and their positions will also change from fleet commanders to group commanders with several fleets and hundreds of warships.
You've got to get used to it!
Therefore, their task today is mainly to formulate tactics on the spot according to the rapidly changing battlefield situation.
"Alright, keep fighting." Yang Wenzhi's expression became serious, and he looked at the star map: "In ten minutes, the enemy will enter the firing range - have you noticed?" The enemy did not slow down. β
Everyone nodded in unison.
"Well, our speculation is correct." Yang Wenzhi said in a deep voice: "After the enemy suffers heavy losses, their best choice is to speed up and quickly pass through our defense line. β
Staring at the almost straight predicted trajectory of the remaining enemy shipsβfrom a distance, the enemy looked as if they were about to launch a suicidal ramming against a human warship.
But in fact, because it is too vast, the probability of two warships colliding is less than 1 in 10,000.
"So...... We can't give them a chance. β
Yang Wenzhi pulled the second microphone and said in a deep voice: "General Helko." β
"I'm here."
"Prepare to carry out the bite plan, form a crossfire interception, and if necessary, use reserve missiles to establish superiority depending on the situation."
After giving the order, Yang Wenzhi let out a long sigh, and his gaze fell on the center of the battlefield.
At this time, the battlefield has formed a > shape, and the fleet in the middle is running wildly along the middle line.
This fleet, including ships of various functions, has a total of one hundred and eight ships.
It didn't join the fight, and it won't join the fight at this moment.
Because of its function, it has an artificial wormhole generator.
It had to rush to the North Star Gate in advance, and then completely cut off the enemy's retreat and all hopes.
