From black technology to super engineering - #776 - Chapter 774 Give them a surprise

USS Homeship, war conference room.

In addition to setting up a holographic stereoscopic projection on the conference table, a notebook was also placed in front of Helko’s seat.

At this time, the star map of the entire Sophie galaxy was displayed on the stereoscopic projection, and the notebook was connected to the conference room of the former enemy operations center on the distant Mercury.

As the supreme commander of the entire coalition forces remaining in the Sophie Galaxy, the current conference room of the Homeship should be the real “former” enemy operations center.

Gently pressing the voice control button, Haierke blocked the sound from the laptop and looked at the stereo camera facing him calmly: “Now the communication test will begin. Please respond to each flagship after receiving it, and the video footage will be online in turn.”

Three seconds later, a voice first sounded in the conference room: “Baiqi received it, this is the deputy captain He Chunlai.”

Following He Chunlai’s voice, a human colonel with a dignified military appearance appeared on the stereoscopic projection screen. He raised his hand in salute to Herko and then nodded slightly.

Halko also stood up and saluted, motioning for the other party to sit down.

Just a moment later, another voice sounded: “The Alexander received it, this is Vice Captain Plivich.”

“Wang Jian received, this is fire control commander Su Mingce.”

“Li Mu received it, this is temporary captain Fu Jing.”

“Hongye received it, this is Captain Mingsala.”

As the authorized commanders who stayed in the flagship came online one by one, it also meant that this “temporary” former enemy command center was officially established. Their superiors were all on the Mercury and had retreated at this time in order to confuse the enemy. After arriving in the Karatu system, they will stay on the Mercury for at least the next three days. Therefore, during these three days, these authorized deputy captains are the direct persons in charge of their flagship and the entire fleet. .

As for why they had to stay at least three days, it was because the fleet from the Tara system could not rendezvous with the Mercury until three days later. At the same time, it will take at least three days for the first batch of space fighters to board the mothership to be completely assembled.

Halko nodded slightly after counting the heads, but did not sit down. Instead, he took a breath and looked at Cao Xinyu beside him: “Xinyu, are you ready?”

“Ready.”

“Okay, let’s start the emergency communication test.” After Haierke finished speaking, he nodded to Cao Xingyu, and then said in a deep voice: “This message comes from encrypted electromagnetic communication. After receiving it, please directly voice back online.”

After finishing speaking, the conference room fell into silence, and Helko also sat down.

Eight seconds later, Hongye came back online.

Fifteen seconds later, Wang Jian came back online.

Then… there was a long wait – the Andromeda fleet, which was farthest away from them at this time, was tens of millions of kilometers away from them.

Finally, after nearly two minutes, a noisy answer came from Bai Qihao.

Halko exhaled softly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: “Damn it, this delay is incredible.”

When he said this, he had already switched back to long-distance communication, so bursts of laughter immediately came from the conference room.

“Okay, since there is no problem with communication, let’s focus on the battlefield.” Herko straightened his face and said seriously: “According to the instructions of the Taiyue Center, we currently implement a three-level command structure. Each fleet, temporary command center, As well as the former enemy command center. These three-level structures, from low to high, all have the authority to fire.”

“This is the trust that the coalition headquarters has placed in us, and it also gives us a huge responsibility. Therefore, we cannot leave any details of the battle behind, cannot have any slack, and cannot rely on the strength of our ships and artillery to be contemptuous. Heart, let alone act recklessly.”

“Now, all battleships are ready to engage the enemy.”

Karatu Galaxy, Mercury.

Ye Ming had already sat at the conference table in the Mercury’s spacious and bright command center – but his position was on Yang Wenzhi’s right hand side, surrounded by technical officers.

Although there was a star map on the conference table, everyone’s attention was still on the meeting hosted by Halko.

“I didn’t expect Lao Hai to be really good at it.” A slightly “sour” voice laughed and scolded: “I have not even been on my flagship, so I accepted his command.”

The speaker was Liu Zheng, the commander of the Archer fleet. He had waited for a long time to finally get his fleet and flagship Li Mu. However, he was unable to take over the spacecraft immediately because he was on the Mercury. He must have felt a little regretful.

Listening to Liu Zheng’s complaints, everyone laughed.

Yang Wenzhi also smiled and said: “Lao Hai is an old ginger after all. Besides, he is originally the war ceremonial director of the Blue Star people. In our system, he is the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces. He is obviously capable.”

Everyone, including Ye Ming, nodded at the same time.

There is no doubt that Helko is capable, at least on the same level as the people here.

Nowadays, the human fleet consists of a manned flagship plus dozens or hundreds of unmanned warships. The difficulty of coordination and group attacks has plummeted – far less than that of a commander who commands dozens of manned warships.

Of course, as the number of battleships increases, the tactical choices and combat ideas will definitely be different, but Halko has been with the commander of the former enemy command center for a long time and participated in all the wars after humans entered the Karatu system. Obviously, there is also a command group for operations. experienced.

“Then are we just waiting for the enemy to take action?”

After Yang Wenzhi finished speaking, he looked at Ye Ming.

Facing the eyes of Yang Wenzhi and everyone, Ye Ming nodded with a smile.

According to his calculations, the enemy had missed the final escape time-that is, ten minutes before he entered the conference room.

That period was the most painful time for everyone.

Because the enemy still has at least half an hour to make a decision after seeing the two reserve fleets of humans being released. Once the enemy decides to avoid fighting and flee, humans can only engage in pursuit battles and rely on rice grains to destroy enemy ships—— The advantage is that humans will suffer almost no losses, but the disadvantage is that humans can no longer annihilate all enemies.

In space, as long as people are willing to run, they can always escape – unless humans have faster warships.

But it will take at least two months for the first batch of human’s ultra-high-speed anti-matter engine battleships to roll off the assembly line. Whether they can form combat effectiveness, wait until two months later… Who knows what will happen?

Therefore, the enemy’s early attack this time has indeed caused great trouble to mankind.

Fortunately, the enemy didn’t seem to choose to escape.

So… the next step is to see how the enemy wants to fight this battle!

Gradually, the enemy formations on the star map began to change.

The speed of the battleships on both sides began to decrease, while the battleship in the center began to accelerate.

From the initial menacing crescent shape like a sickle, it gradually transformed into a swallow-shaped formation.

If viewed as a whole, the enemy fleet will form a “》” quotation mark situation in space with the human fleet.

Seeing this scene, Yang Wenzhi’s expression became a little serious: “It seems that the enemy wants to confront us head-on.”

“It seems so.” Ye Ming nodded in agreement, while looking at the rows of countdowns that were constantly beating in the lower right corner of the screen.

These countdowns mark the time for humans to engage with their enemies.

As the enemy took the initiative to fight, the time to engage with the enemy also began to shorten rapidly. After last night and today’s day, it was shortened from the initial 28 hours to less than two hours.

Ye Ming pursed his lips and looked up at everyone present. Except for him, almost everyone’s eyes were bloodshot, but everyone’s spirits were extremely high.

Needless to say, everyone knows that this battle not only brings an end to the five years of struggle, but also opens the door for the next stage of the war.

In silence, Ye Ming withdrew his gaze again and stared at the star map.

On the star map, the red dot is slowly moving towards the predicted trajectory given by Aita.

Only the biggest red highlight…

At this moment, the red bright spot seemed to move.

Ye Ming frowned slightly and looked at everyone: “Has the orbital ship started?”

“No, Aita didn’t mark the trajectory.” Yang Wenzhi immediately looked at the enemy’s orbital ship – this was also the focus of his attention.

Ye Ming nodded slightly, but in the end he was still uneasy. He approached the microphone and asked in a deep voice: “Aita, has the trajectory of the enemy orbital ship changed?”

After a moment, Aita’s voice sounded: “There is a slight change, but based on past statistics, the change was identified as an error.”

“Hmm…” Ye Ming nodded slowly, thought for a while and then said: “Identify the enemy’s ship with the artificial wormhole combination function and start remodeling.”

“Received, the optical detector is locked and calibrated… the calibration failed. Start the radar calibration… the error is too large to obtain a precise target.”

Ye Ming frowned again.

He knew that with the sudden advance of the enemy and the early “detector war”, not only a lot of human detectors were lost, but also because the enemy ships were too fast and too far away, so it was difficult for radar to provide information. Accurate target recognition – this is why, when humans formulate attack tactics this time, they will directly lock the combat distance within two light seconds.

In addition to the fact that this is the distance that humans are best at and the distance at which salvo fire is most powerful, it is also essentially because of the need to accurately determine the enemy’s position and trajectory – the current enemy ship position markers are a combination of multiple detectors. The result of simulation modeling is not the precise location of the enemy.

Seeing Ye Ming personally controlling Aita, everyone present was silent, just looking at him quietly and expectantly.

In the eyes of ordinary people, Aita is already an extremely intelligent, omniscient, and omnipotent super AI. But these high-authority commanders know that Aita also has operating rules and operating logic.

The more you understand Aita’s rules, the more you can develop Aita’s potential – it’s not as simple as asking Aita to help you calculate a question, write an essay, or draw a picture.

And Ye Ming, as the father of Aita, is undoubtedly the person who knows the operating rules and logic of Aita best.

After thinking for a few seconds, Ye Ming said slowly: “Enable the dormant data from six months to one year ago, retrieve the complete artificial wormhole generator data, focus on the dormant data, and mark the enemy’s artificial wormhole generator.”

“Received, the current task priority allocation may take a while.”

“Elevated to S priority.”

“Roger, please wait.”

Two seconds later, Aita’s voice sounded again: “Through data collection, we have obtained accurate modeling. Do we need to show it?”

“exhibit.”

After Ye Ming finished speaking, he saw that the picture directly went back to the star map a few months ago.

“Lock and mark all artificial wormhole generators and continue data analysis to the current time.”

“Received, locked.”

After Aita’s voice fell, the star map began to change in a fast-forward manner. Time kept beating, and the screen soon came to the current time. Among those seemingly dense and clueless battleships, several yellow Small dots are particularly noticeable.

Yang Wenzhi watched in amazement.

He is the commander with the highest authority on this ship besides Ye Ming, but he has never used Aita like this!

“Excluding other interference, only the modeling of the wormhole generator and the super battleship is left, and then amplified.”

“receive.”

On the star map, all the red dots disappeared.

Yang Wenzhi looked at the special yellow dot mark, and his pupils shrank instantly!

“Mr. Ye, it seems… the enemy’s wormhole generators are beginning to gather!”

Ye Ming nodded slowly.

Moreover, the enemy is not just a group of wormhole generators gathering, or forming.

But… three groups – including the group of super battleships!

Ye Ming pursed his lips hard and took a deep breath.

“It seems that we don’t need to worry about the enemy escaping.” Ye Ming controlled the star map and presented the enemy’s orbital ship and the wormhole generator in front of it in a physical form on the screen.

No matter how slow you are, you can still see that the target of the enemy orbital ship is the wormhole generator that is being “assembled”!

“Is the enemy going to pull the super battleship to the front line?”

“Why are there two man-made wormholes on the front line?”

“Are there two ships?”

“Is it possible that they can still build a fleet?”

After confirming that the enemy was also starting the teleportation, everyone immediately became nervous and discussions continued.

Ye Ming’s eyebrows also wrinkled again.

Of course he is not afraid of the enemy’s super battleship.

Because as early as a year ago, humans secretly mixed second-generation rice grains with first-generation rice grains for testing.

The results of the test are unquestionable – in the current universe, there is no way to intercept second-generation rice grains that use curvature technology.

In front of the second-generation rice grain, the super battleship is just a pile of meat!

What he is worried about is that the enemy will send a fleet over again – the current numerical ratio of 1:2.5 is the limit at which humans can easily win the battle.

But if the enemy sends another fleet of 500 warships… then humans will really be a bit overwhelmed.

In deep thought, Ye Ming exhaled gently.

“In this way, if the enemy is hundreds of conventional battleships, then I suggest that we destroy the wormhole generator first depending on the situation. If they send two super battleships…”

“Then let’s open the champagne?” Olaf, who was watching the situation of the space fighter carrier spacecraft while holding his mobile phone in one hand, took over with a smile.

Ye Ming nodded with a smile: “If the enemy really drives two super battleships, then champagne should definitely be opened.”

After finishing speaking, Ye Ming folded his arms and began to wait quietly.

Time passed minute by minute.

In the star map, the artificial wormhole generators marked by bright and different colors finally came together.

At this time, it was also time to eat.

When the orderly robots filed into the conference room carrying dinner plates, the largest red dot on the edge of the star map disappeared instantly.

A few seconds later, a new round of radar signal feedback came.

Two large red spots appeared in the center of the two enemy fleet groups that had gradually formed a u003eu003c shape.

Ye Ming put down his chopsticks and looked at the lower right corner.

There are still twenty-five minutes before the enemy ship enters the optimal attack distance.

Looking at this time, Ye Ming looked up at Yang Wenzhi.

Yang Wenzhi was also looking up at him, and the two nodded at the same time after making eye contact.

After a moment, Yang Wenzhi pulled the microphone in front of him.

“Attention all warships, Mi Li A1 and Group B1 are locking the enemy position in front of the target. The tactical time is five minutes.”

“Second-generation rice grains, group A2 is ready, the target is the enemy super battleship, B2, C2 are ready, the target is the defense ship of the enemy ship group.”

“Generation rice grain C1, D1 group enters preparation state.”

“The D2 group of second-generation rice grains is retained.”

After finishing speaking, Yang Wenzhi pulled the dinner plate with a smile and looked at Ye Ming: “Give them a surprise.”

Ye Ming nodded with a smile, grabbed a chicken drumstick with his bare hands, and tore off most of it in one go.

He knew that Yang Wenzhi’s rice attack sequence was not arranged randomly.

Rather, it was an arrangement that had been carefully considered countless times.

——In more than half a year of confrontation, the enemy has understood the attack methods of humans and the performance of warships. Why don’t humans understand them?

Not to mention, the enemy has never really come into contact with and analyzed the wreckage of human warships so far.

However, the enemy’s warships have been clearly analyzed by humans – even as far as Ye Ming knows, several large companies and large groups on the earth are jointly preparing to establish a large-scale space garbage recycling center. The business and purpose is to recover the wreckage of enemy warships floating in space.

Of course humans know that the enemy’s strongest “air defense interception” force is those destroyers and frigates.

Therefore, Yang Wenzhi will use a limited number of second-generation rice grains to attack, and he will also attack the ships with the strongest interception capabilities in advance.

Plus……

Think about it, when the enemy is treated as a treasure, hidden as a trump card, and the super battleship with high hopes is directly destroyed by an unknown “what” weapon without even firing a shot…

How broken must the mentality be?

According to the simulation of the highest loss, the first wave of 1,100 first-generation rice grains and 146 second-generation rice grains alone can take away at least 300 enemy ships before firing!

Time passed slowly, and while the commanders were laughing and talking, the human warships flying among the Sophie galaxy began to quietly open their missile launch bays.

A moment later, countless rays of gilded light were like galloping fire snakes, pulling out long tail flames in the quiet night sky, and swept towards the galaxy-like group of Executor ships ahead.
