If there is no accident, the annihilation of the large army will take at least a month, and the cleaning of various corners may even take two or three years.

If it weren't for the level 2 weak AI troops, it would be impossible to fight tasks that require extremely high subjective initiative, such as guerrilla warfare and street warfare. Otherwise, with the size of a planet, it would be like playing casually for more than ten years.

However, Hong cared more about another thing than those enemy troops who were fighting stubbornly.

A very important thing.

"Ai Xing people, are they really extinct?"

she asked herself.

After all, a civilization like the Catus who was beaten so badly, to the point of hiding underground and betting on the other side to blow themselves up, finally tried their best to research the immature cryogenic dormancy technology, and saved Xier's life Single seedling.

With a larger population and more advanced technology, it is unreasonable for the Aixing people to think of ways to preserve their own civilization. According to the historical log records in her database, 30 years after the Catus people completely entered the ground, the Aixing people's technology The speed of progress began to decline like a cliff, and after 50 years, it entered a stage of near stagnation. After 110 years, there was no longer any non-AI self-improvement.

From these data, it can be seen that from the beginning of the collapse of the Aixing society to the complete loss of the intervention of the Aixing AI, the whole process lasted about 80 years.

With the technical level of a quasi-interstellar civilization, such a long time is enough for them to come up with many ways to preserve the fire of civilization.

In addition, there is another very crucial piece of evidence, which also confirmed her guess that the Ai Xing people have not been completely extinct at this time - that is the reward ball.

If the Star-Ai people are really completely extinct, then it stands to reason that Katus, who is the victor, should receive bonus balls within a few working years.

Since she never got the reward ball, it is obvious that there are still Ai stars alive on this planet.

Only the existence of weak AI is not counted as alive. Hong is very sure of this, because in order to prove this, she deliberately asked Li to keep a satellite that did not occupy it. Such facilities, and did not receive any interference from them throughout the process.

However, the reward balls were still issued, so Hong can presume that the weak AI is just a program, a tool, and not a member of civilization in the eyes of the mastermind behind the scenes. question.

Hong wanted to find out those remaining Ai Xing people and wipe them all out.

Not one left.

However, she now understands that the real reason for this war is that hateful pure-conscious creature, which instigated the Ai star people to launch this war that ultimately dragged the two civilizations into the abyss together.

If they even make a bold assumption, this creature might not just instigate it, but end it by itself, driving them into madness with the way of polluting thinking——if we look at it from this perspective, the Ai Xing people are also victims.

Maybe, as long as they are free from the influence of that creature, they can coexist peacefully?

If you think Hong will think so, you are wrong.

Hong thinks that she is already very peace-loving, and even said that she is a bit of a saint. As long as it is not really necessary, she has always been unwilling to solve the problem by killing a person.

But on this issue, it is absolutely impossible for Hong to suffer from the Madonna's disease—even if you Ai Xing people really didn't want to exterminate them, you just did those things because you were coerced or even directly controlled by that creature.

so what?

Both sides have already reached this state. Even if their original intention is to coexist peacefully, it is now doomed that between the two civilizations, one family must completely withdraw and disappear into this sea of ​​stars.

After all, the fight has reached the point of extermination. If you say that the two sides did not fight a bloody feud that would make the other party exterminate immediately, you really wouldn't believe it.

Forget it, the other party really doesn't care about their dead clansmen so much, and promises that as long as they let them live, they promise that they will never retaliate in the future——

Na Hong would still do the same.

Hong would never leave such a hidden danger for them.

"Don't worry, I will definitely find you."

Hong whispered to himself softly.

"Will."

...

When the Cat League was cleaning up Ai Xing, the Foreign League was not to be outdone, and took the initiative to provoke a war with the Chien Empire.

Through exquisite orbital phase control and powerful planning capabilities, the Foreign Alliance secretly assembled a large number of nuclear missiles on the other side of Jupiter without the Kion being aware of it, for fire support when launching a surprise attack on the Kion.

Although in interstellar space, all seemingly stationary objects are actually in high-speed motion, rather than "floating" in the universe as many people imagine.

As time goes by, the distance between objects in two different orbits will continue to change, so "hiding on the back of the planet to avoid detection" described in many works is actually a very difficult thing to do.

Unless the technology has developed to the point where the spacecraft does not need to rely on orbital inertia to fight gravity, but directly relies on the engine to output the same acceleration as the local gravitational acceleration to violently resist gravity, otherwise the spacecraft will quickly leave the planet with the orbit as time goes by Obscuration, thereby re-exposing the enemy's field of vision.

But in this model, there is a special exception.

That is, the observer itself is also in an orbit around the celestial body.

According to the basic knowledge of orbital mechanics, the speed of objects on the same orbit is completely equal, so, without considering the small conditions such as the gravity of many bodies and the gravity of the object itself, two objects in the same orbit will be Always maintain the same speed and travel along the track at a constant relative distance.

In this way, for all the detectors distributed on the side of the wormhole, as long as the orbits are properly controlled, a blind area of ​​vision can be created-this provides an opportunity for the foreign alliance's secret mobilization.

Theoretically, the cracking method of this method is also very simple. Although the transportation method of the missile is to throw it out silently when the cargo ship passes by, there is no infrared signal from the engine during the whole process. There's no way to spot these blacked-out little guys.

However, with a little care, distributing the detectors into different phases, eliminating the entire blind zone, their tricks can be easily foiled.

Normally speaking, if they were foreign allies, even if they were not specifically to avoid hiding a big treasure on the other side of the planet, out of normal intelligence needs, they would definitely fill the orbit with detectors, wishing to put every orbit on the opposite side Take a look at the underpants of the object.

Unfortunately, judging from the performance of the Kion battleship these days, the opponent seems to have never thought of this at all, let alone the loss of the detector.

Obviously, they are destined to pay the price for their arrogance.

On a dark and stormy night, the foreign alliance, which had already secretly completed mobilization, ordered the fleet to go out in full force. Cooperating with the missile group that had accelerated to a fairly high speed under the cover of Jupiter, it directly struck the enemy on the planet Kion 2. The fleet was stationed, and there was a fierce exchange of fire with the local Chien fleet.

The Blitz Kion plan was very successful. The surprise attack with all the troops in the foreign alliance, coupled with a wave of strikes from a large number of missiles, the unprepared Kion lost a dozen warships in just a few minutes, and the remaining 100 Half of the ships were injured, and several were seriously injured, and they were only one step away from being completely destroyed. It can be said that the losses were heavy.

After discovering that the firepower of this group of human warships far exceeded their expectations, after a brief discussion, the Chien immediately decided to retreat.

Although due to communication delays, the military did not even have time to receive their express reports, let alone the emperor and ministers agreed to retreat after discussing, but they still gave themselves an order to retreat.

Although doing so would probably make the Kion Empire lose face and make the higher-ups furious at their cowardly behavior, but they can't control that much anymore.

The face is on the top, and the life is their own. They don't want to just die on this alien battlefield.

Or, from a more direct and realistic point of view, the military pay given to them by the empire is not worth the price of most of them paying their lives for it.

Besides, even if they were to be held accountable later, the crown prince who had been yelling to retreat immediately would be the culprit—the ones at the top were all running away in a hurry, so what are they waiting for if they don't run away.

Therefore, after tens of seconds of difficult choices, the Kion First Expeditionary Fleet decided.

Run!

So, under the surprised eyes of the foreign alliance, this Kion fleet fled without any hesitation just after finishing the opening barrage and tentative shooting, and even without reaching the balance distance of the heat pool.

Looking at the back of the opponent who was running at full speed and getting further and further away, the fleet commander of the foreign alliance finally squeezed out three words through his teeth.

"What the hell?"

When the news spread back to China, almost everyone was shocked.

Brother, this is not the kind of situation where your troops are being crushed and you need to temporarily hide from the edge to preserve your vitality and seek to join other fleets—even one of your fleets is not damaged. Hey!What the hell is it to slip away after taking two shots at the limit range!

Yes, in the eyes of humans, how can these warships be called damaged?

The engine can still move, and the main gun can still fire, but most of the cooling plates and surface equipment have been lost. In human military teaching, even the structure has not been introduced. Open, at least half an hour of real man time.

This level is at best considered a neutral one.

Although they also understand that, judging from the information provided by the Rockman, at least a few years ago when they competed with the Chien for this galaxy, the Chien had a strong will to fight, so such a direct retreat was probably because they were here. There are no facilities on this planet that must be guarded, and the second is that they are unwilling to fight them desperately.

However, no matter how many reasons there are, it can’t change the iron-clad fact — when the absolute value of combat strength is only 23% behind, the Chien army is unwilling to sacrifice itself to greatly weaken the enemy’s effective strength, in exchange for the entire country’s Greater strategic freedom.

This is unimaginable in today's human society—even the Inner Alliance, which has always been called a synonym for weakness by the asteroid belt and the Outer Alliance, is absolutely impossible to retreat without a fight under such a poor combat power. Large tracts of territory were handed over.

Humans suddenly discovered that this seemingly powerful and technologically advanced empire was not as powerful as they imagined.

PS: The second issue of Maomao Physics Letters——Fermilab has sharpened its sword for ten years and poked a big hole in the Standard Model with a 7σ deviation.

This is a discovery just published yesterday. It has been peer-reviewed and published in Science. You can search for the link of the article yourself-but I believe that all readers who pay attention to this aspect should have seen it long ago, so I will not give it here. Readers who understand this discovery are briefly popularized.

Don't talk nonsense, just go straight to the picture.

Image: "Deviation Map", Location: "Images/1649454887-100214443-108608546.jpg"

As shown in the figure above, the gray vertical line in the figure is the W boson mass predicted by the standard model, which is 80.375Gev. The above eight are the ranges given by some previous experiments, and the ninth is the red one. That, is the result of this experiment, and it is also the most accurate measurement so far.

It can be seen that there is an obvious deviation from the prediction of the Standard Model—according to the data of this experiment, the mass of the W boson is about 80.433±0.009 Gev, which is as high as 80.375 σ from the 7 Gev predicted by the model. deviation.

In particle physics, a deviation of 5 σ can already be called a new discovery.

Although this deviation seems to be small, it is more than 80 Gev, it seems that there is no difference, but in fact, the Standard Model is a very strict theory, and it affects the whole body. If the prediction of the Standard Model is wrong, Then it will have an impact on many aspects, such as the Higgs mechanism that was very popular before.

If this deviation is confirmed by subsequent collider experiments, then things will be very large, even greater than the impact of the previous neutrino oscillation (mentioned before)-maybe there is a problem with the Higgs mechanism, maybe There are other unknown physical mechanisms that provide the extra mass, such as supersymmetry that many people have in mind.

Of course, with such a big big news, it is normal to suspect that it may be due to some mistakes. Rather, it is problematic not to doubt it.

For example, the famous superluminal neutrino was later found to be a loose cable or something.

In addition, according to the results of the LHCB published later, their results are in line with the predictions of the standard model, but the accuracy is not as high as this experiment. Therefore, what is going on still needs to wait for subsequent experimental verification.

However, as people who eat melons who watch the excitement and don't think it's a big deal, they definitely hope that things will be bigger and better.

Cables at Fermilab and the foundations of human physics must be loose today.

Volume 190: The Road to the Cat Alliance: Chapter [-] [-] The End of the Aixing Civilization

Soon, the analysis of the Aistar AI database made a major discovery.

For unknown reasons, the Aixing people did not leave a complete set of historical and cultural materials including pictures and images like the Catus people, so Hong can only analyze the key system logs left by the AI, A glimpse of Ai Xing back then from a side angle.

In the era when the war just started, the lives of the Ai Star people were quite normal, except that everyone began to inexplicably undergo a 180-degree change in attitude, and regarded all aliens as dirty things that must be eliminated. , nothing else has changed noticeably.

The fleet should fight wars, the people should live, and normal entertainment should be available. It looks like a normal civilization, and there is no sense of madness that many scholars expected.

It seems that the method used by the purely conscious life to control the Ai Xing people is not to violently drive them into madness, but a more ingenious and precise way of influencing them, so that the A Xing people will naturally and without knowing it. Some regard "elimination of all alien intelligent life" as their ultimate goal.

Obviously, this kind of control method is better - except for the ultimate goal of destroying other civilizations, a civilization that can still maintain its previous rationality in all other aspects is more difficult to deal with than a civilization that has gone crazy and lost the ability to think logically many.

But that changed as the war intensified.

From their point of view, starting from a certain day, Katus suddenly changed from his previous fatigue and began to grow rapidly - it took them a long time to realize that this was because the other party chose to completely give way to them to create The results brought about by AI.

In order to maximize the strength of that AI as much as possible, so that she can play the most extreme level, instead of being stumbled by these fragile organic creatures, the people of Katus even gave up on themselves, just to be able to fight. A chance to keep their civilization alive.

If it is not pushed to the extreme, no civilization will do such a thing that is equivalent to handing over the future of civilization to others-even if doing so can exchange for a powerful force, but if even the people who make up the civilization disappear, No matter how powerful it is, what is the use?

But there is no way, they can only gamble.

This act of betting on death and rebirth can create the greatest room for Hong to operate, allowing her to be reborn from the ashes with the name of the Catus civilization, and then try to rescue their species from the edge of the abyss again.

Is there a high chance of success doing this?

In their view, the success rate is minimal.

But they have no choice - doomed failure on the one hand, and a small chance of life on the other, they can only choose to gamble.

As it turned out, their gamble paid off.

After fully mobilizing all the power of the Catus civilization without having to expend energy for the survival of the Catus people, Hong's performance was even better than they imagined.

Seeing that the difference in combat power between Catus and them is getting smaller day by day, and seeing Hong approaching twice their ship construction speed, those Ai star people finally started to panic.

You know, before, no one thought that they would lose to these Catus people - even a place like the back garden of Kawei Er has been lost, and can only rely on the last line of defense on the home planet How could the civilization that the Kaweiyi Shipyard made the final resistance be their opponent, a civilization that holds a large territory in its hands and can develop as it pleases?

But the front line will not lie, the facts tell them mercilessly that the gap in combat power between the two sides is constantly narrowing.

Relying on the powerful capabilities of the unrestricted Level 3 AI, Red has a production capacity that is higher than that of their parent star + Kawei II + asteroid belt when they only have one parent star.

After being driven out of Kawei by the red fleet, the Ai Xing people finally made up their minds—they also want to give their AI more power.

There is only one other AI that can beat the AI.

Therefore, without adequate preparation, they hastily granted a large amount of authority to their newly created level 3 AI, and gave it an ultimate goal and a staged main goal.

Guarantee the continuation of the Ai Xing population.

And the victory over the Catus civilization.

Of course, they also know that the weak AI will take advantage of the loopholes to develop extreme characteristics if they are not careful, so they put a huge number of security rules on it, almost exhausting all the ways they can think of, to prevent them from being knocked out by the weak AI.

However, they miscalculated in the end.

Because the security rules they impose are too many and too large, they did not find two small rules that slightly conflicted when they conducted an overall review-and then, because the Catus fleet was aggressively compressing their survival Space, in order to obtain this powerful power as soon as possible, they only did a test run with the network disconnected for more than ten days, and had to pull it into the actual production environment.

As for what happened later, one only needs to look at these dilapidated cities and these lifeless snowfields, and the subsequent development is already clear.

"Ugh..."

Hong sighed slightly.
