"Needless to say, you all should know that the beginning of the final stage is not far away."
"However, the existence of this thing is always a threat to us, and it must be solved before the final stage begins!"
"At the very least, it must be damaged so that it cannot be completed before the final phase begins."
"After all, none of us know what this is."
Hearing this, Duan Xingkou frowned slightly.
It’s not that Jiang Xingchen’s logic is wrong.
On the contrary, he very much agreed with Jiang Xingchen's idea.
For a good commander, eliminating uncertainties as much as possible before the war is the foundation of the foundation.
However, let alone destroying this thing, even partial destruction is very difficult.
That's not to say there's absolutely no way.
After all, this thing is right there, everyone can see it, not just Jiang Xingchen.
Duan Xingke also simulated countless methods to destroy it.
But unfortunately, even for the several simulations that were finally successfully destroyed, the pioneering fleet paid a huge price.
Among them, the smallest loss was the result of two standard fleets being completely destroyed and four standard fleets half disabled.
From this we can see how difficult it is to destroy this thing!
As Jiang Xingchen thought before, because there are more than two hundred mechanical planets inside it, as well as countless Annihilators.
No matter where the hyperspace window is opened, the other party will definitely be able to...
It will blast countless firepower accurately on you.
To put it bluntly, there is a high probability that even one of your battleships has not completely exited hyperspace, and it is over just by exposing the front half.
As for whether mechanical civilization will slow down a beat or hesitate for a few seconds?
Get rid of it, we are a mechanical civilization, not carbon-based organisms!
Therefore, a suicidal sneak attack will not work.
So, what about detonating strategic-level weapons from the periphery?
Yes, take the gravity bomb as an example. If it is detonated at maximum power, the range can reach one light-year.
But the trouble is, the way this thing works is that it doesn't destroy everything within a light-year range once it's fired.
Rather, it is like a natural disaster, causing various space disasters everywhere within this range. If you are lucky enough, you can escape even if you don't escape.
The most important thing is that this thing needs to last for more than half an hour to cover almost all areas.
If the mechanical civilization breaks away decisively, some of them can be killed, but not many of them.
I'm afraid it would be nice to leave only one or two behind.
What about a fleet attack?
Good guy, there are nearly 300 mechanical planets, hundreds of millions of Annihilators, and a depth of hundreds of light seconds.
Let the pioneering fleet attack?
I'm afraid that even if I die, I won't be able to complete the breakthrough.
Therefore, in Duan Xingke's understanding, Jiang Xingchen's idea is definitely correct, but it is a pity...
Considering the current strength and quantity of the pioneering fleet.
And it can’t be done!
"Commander, your idea is fine, but..."
"I know, you want to say that it can't be done. Even if it can be done, the price required is beyond our ability to bear, right?"
Before Duan Xingke could finish speaking, Jiang Xingchen had already interrupted him.
"Yes, Commander, I have simulated various methods before, but even in the best case, we lost tens of thousands of warships, and two legions lost almost all their combat effectiveness."
"Xingke, have you ever thought that we don't actually need a fleet to do this work, but directly rely on hyperspace technology to complete the local destruction of the object?"
"Commander, of course I have thought about it, but it doesn't work either, because..."
Duan Xingke, who was just about to say that suicide attacks were unreliable, was suddenly stunned.
Wait, what did the commander just say?
Local destruction rather than destruction?
So, what the commander is thinking about is not a suicide attack?
After all, if you bring a strategic-level weapon and pass it directly through the hyperspace engine, it will not destroy it locally, but destroy everything within the range.
Speaking of which, what exactly is the Commander planning to do?
For a moment, Duan Xing was a little confused and could only look at Jiang Xingchen, waiting for the answer.
Jiang Xingchen looked at Ouyang Qing.
"Ouyang Qing, whether it is a jump or hyperspace navigation, it is a passage created by technological means."
"The jump is a gravity channel, and hyperspace navigation is a hyperspace channel."
"At the same time, the jump entrance will form a gravity field, and the hyperspace entrance will form a hyperspace window."
"That's right?"
Hearing this, Ouyang Qing nodded.
I feel a little lost in my heart, doesn’t everyone know this?
"So, Ouyang Qing, please describe to Duan Xingke, what will happen if a spacecraft touches the boundary of the gravity field or the boundary of the hyperspace window?"
"The spacecraft that comes into contact will be destroyed, but the gravity field or the hyperspace window will be unharmed."
"Very good, Xingke, do you understand?"
On the side, Duan Xing was confused.
What should I understand?
Isn’t this common sense? I know it even if you don’t tell me.
But does it have anything to do with what we are talking about now?
"Okay, let me remind you again, do you know how Wanting was rescued back then?"
Fu Wanting, before Ling Xiao took office, had been Jiang Xingchen's lieutenant for decades.
Who doesn’t know about pioneering fleets?
How was he rescued back then?
Duan Xingke couldn't help but think of a battle report he had seen.
At that time, the first destroyer built by the Canglan resistance army, the Wuluo, was put into service.
Not long after serving on the Wuluo, Canglanxing received a distress signal from Fu Wanting.
Back then, Fu Wanting rescued a large number of humans from the Floodlight Galaxy by hijacking a cargo ship.
However, during the escape, they were pursued by two Kerry Empire frigates.
However, at the most dangerous moment, the destroyer Wuro arrived to rescue, destroyed two Kerry Empire frigates, and successfully rescued everyone.
This is the first time the Canglan Department has fought against the Kairui Empire since they built their own warships.
Of course, the point is not this, but...
One of the frigates was destroyed in a somewhat different manner.
At that time, a Kerry Empire frigate started its jump engine and prepared to escape.
Jiang Xingchen, on the other hand, drove the mecha and fired a shot at it when it closed its shield and prepared to enter the jump channel.
In the end, a large hole was broken in the outer wall, and a large amount of air leaked out, forcing the entire frigate to move slightly to the other side.
But it was such a small gain that the frigate finally hit the channel boundary and was torn to pieces by the terrifying gravity wave.
So that's it...
At this moment, Duan Xingke understood what his commander meant.
No wonder, the commander is talking about local destruction.
No wonder, the commander asked Ouyang Qing what would happen when something hits the boundary of the hyperspace window.
"Commander, I understand!"
"Well, just understand. Next... Ouyang Qing, I need you to help me figure out how to cause enough damage to this thing with a limited number and limited destructive power."
