Unable to escape, the enemy army is surrounded on all sides, and they will be attacked by concentrated fire as soon as they show their heads...

"This way of fighting is more like submarine warfare." Wu Qing has switched to the third live channel, which means that the three ships that Wu Qing paid attention to before have all failed in the battle.

Almost all spaceships fail, and the biggest direct reason is that energy consumption has bottomed out.As long as the spacecraft still has energy, at a distance of hundreds of thousands of kilometers, because of the natural defense delay brought by this vast distance, it is difficult for the ship to be directly hit by weapons. — even a laser moving at nearly the speed of light.

"It doesn't look like a submarine to me, it's more like divers shooting at each other underwater," Shen Wen said. "Everyone only carries a certain amount of oxygen cylinders, and they have to avoid each other's bullets while shooting at each other." .The harder you dodge, the faster your oxygen will be depleted, but the slower you dodge, the easier it is to get hit."

Xu Yan's IQ is not enough to understand this kind of war mode, he is more concerned about who is more likely to win in this war: "Didn't it mean that the intelligence and body side is more powerful, so now it seems that they have lost more. "

Indeed, the real-time battlefield evaluation system is always giving the current battle results. Judging from this number alone, the human side has a great advantage-the exchange ratio between the two sides at this time is about 1 for 4, that is to say , Human beings lose one spaceship on average, and the intelligence body loses four ships.

"Because this is a defensive operation," Wu had noticed this early on. "In addition to the fleet support from Black Star, during the entire battle, many spaceships will retreat towards the direction of the planetary orbit before the energy is exhausted."

Because it is backed by a planet, when the defense forces encounter difficulties in battle, there is a stable retreat direction, and they can easily receive follow-up energy supplements in orbit.But the intelligent body as the attacker does not have this kind of convenience. Once the energy is exhausted, the spaceship will only be trapped and then destroyed.

"But even if it is 1 to 4, if this kind of battle continues, the coalition forces will not be able to bear it." The battle has been going on for more than four hours, and the federal army has lost more than 10,000+ spaceships in these four hours. The numbers are still increasing.With the passage of time, the width of the battle between the two sides is still increasing, and the follow-up troops in the intelligence and physical aspects are endless, and there is no sign of changing the course at all-this means that if humans still stick to the Black Star, such consumption is still not enough. will continue to continue.

"There are two fleets stationed on the Black Star, the eighth and No.13 fleets, and three fleets behind it as reserves...but the total number is only a few million ships, which is almost one of the federal fleets. It's half the time."

Shen Wen, who had played the game, said with emotion: "The Federation's mobilization efficiency is too poor."

The number of troops on both sides is not an order of magnitude concept at all. According to Wu Qing's experience in the game, if the battle continues, the space debris formed by more and more consumed ships will form a natural minefield. The offensive channels of the troops will be further blocked, which means that the advantage of the defenders will continue to expand, and the final exchange ratio can reach one to ten, or even twenty or thirty.

However, it doesn't help.

With 300 billion intelligence and less than [-] million federal troops, facing a gap of nearly a thousand times in strength, [-] to [-] is still not a ratio that can be exhausted.

If the Federation chooses to fight to the death with such an exchange ratio, the most likely thing is that the entire fleet of the Federation Army will be consumed. The intelligence and body may suffer heavy losses, but the remaining fleet can almost occupy all the planets on the side of the coalition forces without bloodshed. .

"So the military strategy of the coalition forces is still reasonable." In this decisive battle, the coalition forces invested about one-third of their troops and broadcast live on the entire network. The purpose of doing so couldn't be clearer. "Through this This is a way to awaken as much as possible the enthusiasm of everyone to participate in the war and make political preparations for full mobilization."

Black Star is the No. 13 planet in the entire solar system. Because it is highly militarized and fortified, its quality is not very high. It ranks almost No. 5 in the bottom of the 12 planets, and only accounts for the number of planets controlled by the Federation. , four percent of the total mass of the thirteen planets, and therefore of limited strategic value.And behind the black star, that is, the No. [-] planet, the planet called the red star, has a mass five times larger than the black star.

In the situation of the solar system, the vast majority of federation players will choose to organize the strongest line of defense on the red star, because whether this planet is captured or not, to a large extent, it means that the intelligence body has already possessed the strength that is completely equal to that of human beings. .

Judging from the deployment of the Black Star defensive battle, the federal government must be making such plans now.

The battle is still going on, and the fleets of both sides have already merged with each other like ink of two colors, and the forward of the intelligent fleet has approached the orbital layer.Here, the attacking fleet will be hit by the entire Black Star orbital defense system in an all-round way.

The defense system is essentially laying along the orbit, countless artificial satellites, but the function of these satellites is not for communication, but as a fixed fort.

The most important weapon of a satellite is usually one or more accelerators or laser launchers. The accelerator has two main functions. It is to create a high-speed particle flow to cover the opponent's possible attack channels.This high-speed stream of particles is essentially a space engine—the principle is the same.

However, when this kind of space engine is used as a turret, the reaction force is not used to accelerate the satellite, but to send the satellite back to the surface of the planet, so this kind of turret often also takes into account the role of transporting materials.

In war, it is difficult to say which of these two functions is greater.

If it's a laser transmitter, its function is the same as the laser array installed on most spacecraft.In space, lasers, in addition to being a high-energy weapon, can be used to transmit large amounts of information between friendly ships, as well as to indicate and warn of specific targets—similar to using a searchlight to illuminate a specific unit.

This kind of indicator target is definitely not detectable with the naked eyes of creatures, but it can be seen very clearly if the automatic sighting system of the spacecraft is used.In combat, if a ship is marked by the enemy's laser and does not perform tactical maneuvers to avoid this lock within a few seconds, it is almost [-]% that the ship will be destroyed.

"I'll continue to stare here," Wu Qing and Shen Wen discussed, "Go online to find out the public opinion... After this battle is over, we will write a report together and send it to Yevgeny."

"But the last time we sent a message, we haven't responded yet," Shen Wen was a little worried, "Do they think we can't be trusted?"

"Whether it is or not, we do what we have to do," Wu Qing said. "It is normal for them to have doubts, and how can they contact us? We are in the game server."

Xu Yan was already a little impatient watching it. He was a little excited when he first heard about watching the war, but after looking around, what he saw from the beginning to the end was the data inside the spaceship and the points on the electronic map. .

This obviously doesn't match the interstellar war that Xu Yan imagined.He couldn't help complaining: "How long will this fight last? Even if the mind and body don't sleep, don't those soldiers in the Federation have to sleep?"

"They all take turns to go to the battlefield...Usually they are on autopilot, and they only need to use people when they contact the enemy." Generally, the time to contact the enemy will not exceed 10 hours. There's even less than four hours between supports.As far as this battle has been going, from the time of combat to the death, the average survival time of the Federation is about seven hours, while that of the Intelligence Body is only more than three hours.

Because the intelligence and body came from a long distance, the energy carried by the spacecraft itself is not high enough, which is also the biggest reason for the poor exchange ratio in terms of intelligence and body.

"What about the whole battle? How long will it last?" At first Xu Yan thought watching a war was like watching a movie, but only now did he realize that it seemed to be a series, and it was a very boring series.

"Three to five days, and it will be faster and faster in the future."

Faster and faster is not talking about the speed of the intelligent fleet. If you consider the speed of travel, at the current speed of the intelligent fleet, it will take about three months for the 300 billion warships to reach the Black Star.

Fast, mainly refers to the fighting rhythm of the two sides on this battlefield.

At present, the troops sent by the intelligence and body are still just reconnaissance troops. It can be seen that the main purpose of these troops is not to kill the enemy, but to continuously infiltrate the defense line and collect more battlefield information about Black Star. Prepare for the official attack later.Once this kind of infiltration and investigation work is completed, the number and frequency of intelligence and body input into the fleet will increase rapidly.

Just as Wu Qing expected, seven hours later, the intellectual and physical aspects launched the first general attack.

While watching the live broadcast, Wu Qing watched the public opinion on the Internet, and it was obvious that before the general offensive was launched, most of the people's remarks were just complaining, and some complained about too much loss in terms of intelligence and body (a layman would only Look at the battle loss exchange ratio), some questioned the government's military strategy, why not a wave of a...

Only after the signal of a live channel is completely turned off, this kind of complaint will be lightened-because it means that the combatants have died, and everyone will spontaneously observe a moment of silence.

But less than half an hour after the silence, this kind of complaint will continue in the next live broadcast.

But after the general offensive was launched, such complaints were completely invisible.

The reason is very simple. The average survival time of all the personnel participating in the battle began to drop sharply, from more than seven hours before, to about one hour!

The main reason for the decrease in survival time is that the number of enemies in the unit space has increased dramatically, and the distance between each other has also begun to shrink - this means that the time for enemies to lock on and weapons to arrive is faster, requiring higher speed And faster energy consumption speed to evade.

On the electronic map, those slow-moving yellow dots now felt as if they were being boiled. They were frantically maneuvering at high speed, and the loss rate of the coalition troops began to accelerate sharply.

In the short 10 minutes that Wu Qing watched, more than 2 people died.

This is just the beginning, as Wu Qing said, based on his experience in the game, such an attack would last three to five days-this time does not mean that the momentum of the army in terms of intelligence and body is only so great, but that As for the coalition forces, they can only support consumption for three to five days.After this time, unless other fleets are used, unless the federal government intends to fight to the death here, the fall of Black Star has become inevitable.

The public opinion on the Internet was half-dead and quiet, and countless live broadcast windows stopped, stopping on the window where the combatants died last.People don't switch live channels anymore - because no one can bear to constantly witness the death of their fellow man.

But the official death count is still being updated, reminding everyone that this war will continue.

Along with the ever-increasing number of casualties, there are naturally registration applications on the federal conscription website.

"At least from a strategic point of view, the government has achieved what they want to achieve," Wu Qing briefly concluded, "They have successfully incited the people's fear of war."
