The last human in the universe

Chapter 231 Redundancy
H1 galaxy, H1-2 planet.

Its land is still desolate and dead, as if no one has set foot in it since the beginning of the universe.But on its orbit, from 900 kilometers to 1600 kilometers from the surface, on the low orbit with a length of 700 kilometers, there are densely packed technological creations, the number of which is too large to count.

Tens of thousands of drum-shaped living bases, almost tens of millions of various types of factories and functional bases, and numerous shuttle spaceships, satellites, etc., almost completely fill this space.

But everything is always in order, and there has never been an unexpected collision.Because the orbits of all these aircraft are controlled by the super artificial intelligence "Xiaoxi".

If the aircraft here is already dense enough, then the density of man-made aircraft is even higher on the medium-high orbit above 1600 kilometers.

Because, below 1600 kilometers, there are only the residential and industrial areas of planet H1-2, which belong to the general existence of the rear.Above the 1600-kilometer orbit is a military defense zone.

Here, there is a huge spaceship dock, a military base as huge as a monster, many powerful combat spaceships shuttle back and forth, and countless automatic weapons.

In the outer layer, the number of automated weapons is even greater.There are hundreds of millions of small laser turrets alone.They are roughly evenly distributed in the outermost space, only a few kilometers apart from each other.

They are like a big net, completely enveloping the entire planet H1-2.The task is to defend against small targets such as electromagnetic artillery projectiles, antimatter projectiles, and miniature missiles flying from any direction within the defense zone.

They will use the heating and plasma jet effects of laser burns to destroy or deflect the trajectory of small targets, rendering them ineffective or less lethal.

But their functions are limited to automatic aiming and laser emission, and they need to be matched with detectors that are fine enough and sensitive enough to function.Therefore, in order to support this defensive network, people had to place tens of millions of high-precision reconnaissance satellites around the planet to capture any small targets that dared to come to this planet.

In addition, for large targets, such as medium and large interstellar missiles, grenades and other targets, a special defense system is also required.There are also those used for offense, such as landmines, missile launch bases, etc., and there are many, many.

These countless facilities are scattered on the outermost orbit, integrated with the automatic defense system farther away, and the combat spaceships belonging to human civilization, and jointly forged a line of defense against the storm civilization.

This is an extremely complex system.It is even so complicated that if it cannot maintain a good operation, it will immediately have a counterproductive effect, and even cause harm to human beings themselves.

For example, a slight miscalculation of the orbit would cause one's spacecraft to collide with an interstellar mine planted by one's own side and detonate, immediately causing hundreds of thousands of casualties.Or the turret collided with the base, the attack from the rear caused by a program error hit the facilities in the front, etc., there are countless possible situations.

In order to maintain the good operation of a system, the human world specially mobilized hundreds of thousands of experts in various disciplines to form a dedicated maintenance team, and trained for more than 20 years.In addition, even a considerable part of the super artificial intelligence Xiaoxi's computing power has been transferred to this system.

At this moment, the time to test whether this system is reliable enough and powerful enough has arrived.

As early as millions of kilometers away from planet H1-2, the Storm Civilization Fleet had already started to change formation ahead of schedule, transforming from a complete defensive formation to an offensive formation.The distance between them began to widen, the early warning spacecraft took on the task of building an intelligence network, and many reconnaissance satellites began to spread in all directions.

They began to actively annihilate the automated weapons that existed around their own side to reduce the pressure on the spaceships that took on the offensive mission.With good protection and vision, these combat spaceships can finally start to exert their power.

At this moment, an unknown number of billions of electromagnetic artillery projectiles and micro-missiles left the launcher and began to fly towards the planet.

With their high speed, the distance of millions of kilometers can be crossed in only about 1 minute.During this process, the automatic defense weapons all over the galaxy eliminated some of them, but a considerable number still advanced to this planet.

The combat spaceship on the human side, who was fully on guard, ignored the other shells except for destroying the one that happened to be aimed at him.So they arrived near the target almost unimpeded.

At this moment, the planetary defense network built by human beings with painstaking efforts and countless manpower and material resources finally began to exert its power.Countless lasers and low-power vacuum cannons were activated under Xiaoxi's operation, aiming precisely at each projectile.

The solid projectile flew to nowhere after being deflected, while the projectile filled with antimatter exploded in space, like a small sun ignited instantly.

The side facing away from the H1 star, which should have been a dark sky, completely turned into daylight at this moment.

The sky is brightly lit, no matter which direction is dazzling light, it seems that the entire sky is burning.

During this process, an unknown number of nodes in the planetary defense system were destroyed—after all, the interception rate cannot be [-]%, and there will always be fish that slip through the net.Injuries are inevitable.

As a result, theoretical gaps appeared in certain areas.Of course, it's only theoretical, and it didn't happen in practice.

Because there is a lot of redundancy in the arrangement of these nodes.Their performance is enough to allow them to undertake all defensive tasks within a radius of [-] kilometers, but in actual arrangement, the distance between them is only less than three kilometers.

Redundant backup up to more than 200 times.

Moreover, once there is a loss of nodes, new node defense weapons will be released immediately in the military bases that must exist nearby, quickly replenishing the entire system, and always maintaining a high degree of redundancy.

Similarly, some of the remains of projectiles that had been plasmatized were not successfully deflected, but directly penetrated the defense network and reached the surface of the planet.But that doesn't matter either.

Because the surface of the entire planet is almost empty, all man-made structures are at least ten kilometers underground.

Thick rock formations can provide sufficient defense for people against these "stray bullets".

But this first wave is just an appetizer.Both sides knew that this was unlikely to have any effect.

The subsequent second wave, third wave, and fourth wave of attack followed, and the offensive methods also began to diversify.Some large tactical weapons were also thrown into the battlefield.

The vacuum cannon roared in the space, and the laser beams criss-crossed the starry sky, cutting all tangible and intangible existences on the advancing track.Electromagnetic cannon projectiles are like a torrential rain, and the miniature missiles with terminal guidance capabilities are desperately attacking all the set targets under the premise of trying their best to hide themselves.

Among them are stealth miniature missiles specially designed for the planetary battle.They are like ghosts, they can even greatly sacrifice other abilities for their own concealment performance.This makes them greatly weakened under the premise of high stealth performance and extremely high speed.But that's okay.

Because their attack target is the enemy's logistics facilities under the planetary defense network, such as shipyards, bases and the like.Even, in the inner layer, the drum-shaped living bases, passenger spaceships, light industrial factories, grain and animal husbandry bases, etc., which are under the strictest protection, are also their targets.

Attacking the enemy's rear can greatly disintegrate the morale of the enemy. This principle is true no matter in ancient times or in the era of interstellar wars.

Around the H1-2 planet is one of the areas with the highest density of automatic defense weapons in the entire H1 galaxy.Correspondingly, the protection ability is also the most powerful.

At this moment, the automated defense weapons belonging to the human side are desperately fighting back.Missiles, projectiles, and vacuum cannons of various models and performances swept towards the Storm Fleet like a violent storm.

They are constantly being destroyed and constantly replenished.They are cheap and easy to manufacture, even if a missile can only blow up a layer of paint on an enemy spaceship, it is profitable.

These automatic defense weapons undoubtedly put great pressure on the Storm Fleet.Because there are too many of them, too many, too many.

General Qin Hu, who has always been attached to the Storm Fleet, only made a simple assessment and concluded that if his own fleet were to face such a high-density automatic defense system for galaxies, it would probably take less than three days. The fleet will be wiped out.But the Storm Fleet is only struggling a little, and all the offensive and defensive arrangements are still in order.

He is closely observing the battlefield situation.

At this moment, it is not yet the best time for the human fleet to join the battle.Because the Storm Fleet is not close enough to planet H1-2.

General Qin Hu always remembered a principle confirmed at the highest-level military meeting, that is, the human space fleet has one and only one goal, to assist the H1-2 planet in defense, not attack.

Because the number of our own warships is too small, it is easy to be consumed by the enemy if we attack rashly.

And as long as one's own side can defend this planet, then, under the consumption of endless automatic defense weapons, the enemy will be ground to death, and will collapse without fighting!
For humans, defense is the best offense!

Time passed quietly.Now, the storm fleet is less than 100 million kilometers away from this planet.

General Qin Hu slowly gave the order.

"attack!"
