Chapter Seventy-Three: More?

This human civilization is too weird. From the dizzy at the beginning, he directly used a quarter of the combat power in the civilization as bait to lure his own side to the opponent's base camp for a decisive battle, to the follow-up refueling tactics that can be called taboos on the battlefield, to the rapidly increasing number of interstellar mines at this moment, all of which gave Mo Zhuo a sense of foreboding in his heart.

He had already decided to use all his strength to finish this battle as soon as possible, preferably with a thunderous blow and crush the enemy in one fell swoop.

If it dragged on any longer, Mo Zhuo couldn't help but worry that this weak human civilization would come up with something more.

The fleet of engineering ships remaining in the rear was now only 100 warships left to escort the ship. Murdra wasn't too worried about it, though.

Even if it is an engineering ship, it has a certain ability to defend itself. And then there's the existence of automated defenses. He could be sure that as long as the opponent did not send a fleet of more than 10,000 warships, it was unlikely that it would be able to take it.

Besides, you can still run if you can't beat it, anyway, your own technology is more advanced and your acceleration ability is stronger.

But now it seems that this human civilization has no intention of attacking those engineering ships.

After three days of maneuvering, these 400 fully loaded warships finally arrived on the battlefield and joined the formation. Their addition once again strengthened the combat power of Mo Zhuo's men.

Up to this point, the fleet under the command of Murdra had been fighting fiercely against human civilization for three days.

During these three days, the Mosoti civilization fleet achieved great results. Half of the 20,000 warships sent to the battlefield by the human civilization have now been destroyed. The battle damage of their own warships was only about 200.

Overall, the exchange ratio between the two sides is about 1:60.

In other words, the human civilization must lose a full sixty warships before it can destroy one of its own warships.

This ratio is of course incomparable to the 1:100 in the initial sneak attack battle, but considering this battle, the combat power of the warship fleet on the side of human civilization has been inexplicably improved, coupled with the participation of a large number of interstellar mines and interstellar batteries, it is enough to maintain the battle loss ratio at about 1:60, which is enough to make Mo Zhuo proud.

At this moment, of the original 3,000 warships in Mo Zhuo's hands, there are still 2,460 left. And most of them have some damage, and the war materials have also been consumed in large quantities, and they are no longer abundant.

On the shell of the battleship Glory, the lasers were constantly sweeping the interstellar mines and interstellar missiles that tried to get close to itself, and in just one minute, nearly a thousand interstellar mines were cleared.

This situation has continued from the beginning of the war to the present. So far, the Glory alone has destroyed more than 5 million interstellar mines.

But more interstellar mines are still pouring in like moths to a fire.

Commanding the clearing of a wave of interstellar mines that were intensively attacked, Mo Zhuo couldn't help but complain: "This human civilization won't transfer all its industrial power to produce interstellar mines, right?" So far, we have cleared a total of more than 20 billion interstellar mines, but they are still dropping, tsk......"

Interstellar mine clusters are like a swarm of annoying mosquitoes, which can't cause much damage, but they are always buzzing around, and they can't be driven away, which is annoying.

"Thankfully, the war is almost over."

Mo Zhuo sighed softly: "These last ten thousand or so warships should be their last strength." ”

The deputy commanders and staff officers felt the same way.

This interstellar war has really made them feel bored until now, and there is no sense of exhilaration, which is like that of the previous interstellar wars.

"Let's get it done quickly......"

They didn't want to fight anymore at all.

"This human civilization is really strong." A high-ranking captain of the fleet sighed: "An ordinary second-level intermediate civilization can have 20,000 warships. But they have ...... Hmm, we've already wiped out almost 30,000 warships, right? Now there are 10,000 of them, that's a full 40,000 of them, tsk, that's amazing. Once we have taken control of their civilization, we need to investigate and see how they managed to come up with so many warships. ”

Ships don't just need to be built—although that's hard.

Not to mention how many upstream factories and industrial workers are needed to build a battleship, after the battleship is built, it will have to be maintained and repaired in the later stage. The most important thing is that the battleship has to be controlled by people.

A small warship will need about 80 well-trained elite soldiers to maneuver. Forty thousand warships, including the large ones, would require a total of almost 4 million elite soldiers.

Counting logistics, combat readiness resources, maintenance, supplies, etc., almost 10 million people are needed.

The entire industrial chain needs almost 100 million people.

In particular, these 100 million people must all be professional and highly educated.

This is a full 100 million people who do not produce any value within civilization, but need to be supported by the rest. They are all high-quality talents, and the salary cannot be lower. According to rough estimates, it would take a civilization of about 10 billion people to support these 100 million people.

This is still a completely military-oriented civilization, and the entire strength of an entire civilization is used to build up its armament and develop its military, so that this can only be achieved. If more culture, entertainment, and the like were developed within the civilization, a civilization with a population of 10 billion would not be able to support so many military practitioners.

That's why Murdra is so curious about this human civilization.

"Work harder, launch another wave of offensives, and finish sweeping these last 10,000 warships as soon as possible."

Murdra made up his mind.

But at this moment, a staff officer hurriedly broke into the conference room. His face was pale, as if he was angry, and as if he was a little afraid.

"Commander, our satellites have detected about 10,000 more warships taking off from the surface of Planet Six, and they are currently maneuvering towards the battlefield, and they will join the battlefield in about a day."

"it!"

A fleet senior was shocked and even stood up suddenly: "And the battleship? 10,000? ”

"It can't be!"

"How could they have fifty thousand warships! There are only 50,000 warships in our Mosoti civilization! We're a second-class civilization! Mastered the helium-3 fusion technology, as well as more efficient ion propulsion technology, the second level of advanced civilization with higher productivity! Our civilization is already struggling to support 50,000 warships, this human civilization is only a second-level intermediate civilization, how can they have 50,000 warships! ”

"It's more than that."

The staff officer continued to report with a blushing face: "Intelligence shows that the rate at which human civilization drops interstellar mines has increased again, from the previous average of 50,000 per second to 66,000 ......."
