Maybe that weapon is just a picture, or just some kind of sound wave, or even other information carriers that are more difficult to guard against.
Of course, the War fleet has not mastered such powerful atomic weapons. Even if there are some atomic attack methods, there should not be much of a problem after the defense line is established.
At worst, Shen Shiduo trades some "batteries".
At this moment, everyone was attracted by Shen Shi's words. Although there were no military experts among them, they still remembered these words firmly.
And it's not difficult to understand.
One side has crossed an extremely long distance, but the other side is well prepared and can devote all its resources and energy to aspects directly related to the war, so it will naturally have an advantage.
Presumably, this was one of the reasons why Mr. Shen had the confidence to deploy a defensive line and gain hope of winning the war in just three years.
Thinking of this, everyone became more and more excited, wanting to know how this planetary fortress was built!
Shen Shi did not continue to sell things off. This is the real core of today's meeting.
"In any war, information is the top priority." Shen Shi continued, "There is an old saying in the Eastern Kingdom, which is to know yourself and the enemy, and you will be victorious in every battle. Naturally, this cannot be fully applicable in the interstellar world, but if I don't master the enemy first, If you come back early to prepare for the latest trends, there will be no suspense in this battle."
Many people nodded slightly.
Even Tracy was listening intently at this moment.
This is indeed a very simple truth.
It can even be said that Shen Shi's mere act of coming back to report the news was an unparalleled achievement for human civilization in the entire history.
"Therefore, the first step in building a planet fortress is to build an interstellar detection system." Shen Shi turned around and looked at the ball in front of everyone, "This is the most commonly used detection system in interstellar wars. Device—original detection.”
This was the first time that he said the word "original energy".
Naturally, everyone still couldn't understand the meaning of these two words, but they couldn't help but look at the ball.
Full of wonder and curiosity.
Since arriving here, they have been guessing about the function of this sphere, and now they finally know it.
detector?
Isn't that like a radar or satellite?
Once this impression was born, their eyes looking at the ball suddenly became a little fiery.
With the detection methods used by humans in the past, even if a local fleet entered the solar system, they would not be able to detect it, even if it was close at hand!
"The principle of this kind of detector is a technology that cannot be understood or even imagined at the current level of human beings. You only need to know that it has a certain probability of detecting any enemy within a certain range, including very large numbers of enemies. There may be a reconnaissance fleet, reconnaissance device, or any other device approaching the solar system."
The news revealed in Shen Shi's words made many people's expressions change slightly.
Not just because of Shen Shi's description of this kind of detector.
Especially because he talked about the enemy's reconnaissance fleet.
"Mr. Shen." Willard couldn't help but ask aloud, "Mr. Shen, are you saying that before the enemy's main fleet arrives, the reconnaissance force will appear first?"
"Of course." Shen Shi glanced at him, "Interstellar navigation is so dangerous, every fleet must have a pilot spacecraft, let alone a nomadic fleet with the purpose of invasion."
After receiving the affirmative answer, there was some commotion among these people.
This means that these three years are not absolutely safe!
What's more, none of the people present are stupid. It is natural to see that this kind of reconnaissance force has a bad impact on the entire battle situation. It may not only threaten the construction of the entire planet fortress, but may also pass back the information that humans are building a planet fortress.
Then let the situation converge!
It's okay to just increase the military strength, but if it is reported directly to the terrible civilization that easily destroyed the Wo people's civilization,
Such a result would undoubtedly be a disaster for mankind!
Shen Shi did not speak at this moment. It seemed that he was giving everyone time to discuss, but in fact, he was indeed deliberately guiding everyone to think.
After gradually understanding interstellar warfare, Shen Shi discovered that interstellar warfare is indeed very strange to humans, but this strangeness is more due to the lack of understanding of technology and devices, rather than the unfamiliarity of the inherent logic of war.
superior.
Therefore, humans also have the opportunity to quickly become familiar with interstellar warfare.
Even excellent interstellar war commanders quickly appeared.
Until the discussion gradually stopped, everyone's eyes were once again focused on Shen Shi.
Shen Shi then continued: "It seems that you all have understood the importance of dealing with the reconnaissance force. Yes, this will be one of our most important goals in the near future. Interstellar communication is not that simple.
Otherwise, there is no such thing as "a spaceship is an isolated world". With the technical level of the Wo fleet, if we want to ensure that intelligence information is transmitted back, we need to send information continuously for a period of time. Therefore, we still have the opportunity to block it.
"
This is another important message!
Some people even wanted to take out paper and completely record everything Shen Shi said.
Unfortunately, although they brought a voice recorder, it was of no use in space where they could only communicate using spacesuits.
Others were attracted by the content in Shen Shihua.
"So, Mr. Shen, we need to discover the enemy's reconnaissance fleet first, and then deal with it before the enemy has transmitted information back or even discovered anything?" It was still Willard who spoke.
At this moment, he is staring closely at the iron ball.
Yes, the rest of the people also reacted.
In this first interstellar confrontation, the most important thing is indeed reconnaissance!
Everything depends on this detector!
If the enemy's reconnaissance force has arrived, discovered that they are building a planet fortress, and even started to transmit information back, but they still don't notice anything.
Then the probability of defeat in this war will be greatly increased, and it may even be like the Nawo civilization, where the civilization will perish overnight!
After realizing this.
Everyone looked at this "iron ball" and couldn't help but become nervous.
I want to know whether this kind of detector can take on such an important task.
"The advantages of this kind of detector are that it is fast and widespread, can ignore a certain interstellar distance, and covers an extremely wide range. As long as the enemy does not have special prevention means, it is difficult to hide, but the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, it is probabilistic
, it only has a certain probability of being able to detect the enemy, so the best solution is to increase the number."
Shen Shi looked at the black ball and sighed.
When he first received this thing, he didn't know how the original energy could be used for detection.
Only later did I realize how extensive the applications of original energy are.
As long as the enemy does not specifically shield the original energy, there is a certain probability of being discovered the moment it enters the detection range. According to Shen Shi's understanding, this method is close to "intuition", "whim" and "telepathy"
"Such a statement, but it actually exists and works.
And the closer the distance, the clearer and the greater the probability of discovery. The further away, the blurr and the smaller the probability.
Of course, he couldn't explain this principle now.
The effect can only be explained directly.
"You should all understand basic probability calculations. In this case, even if there are countless detectors, the probability cannot reach 100%. There must be a possibility that all detectors will not be able to detect the enemy. Therefore,
After purchasing 256 detectors of this type, the design of the planet fortress was also equipped with a complete set of other types of detectors, but even so-" Shen Shi stretched out his hand and pointed at the one in front of him.
Sphere, "The enemy's reconnaissance troops will immediately transmit information back as soon as they discover it, and then destroy these detectors at all costs!"
Yes, detectors are so important in interstellar wars.
Because the universe is really too big.
It's so big that even transmitting information is extremely troublesome.
And this kind of original energy detector that can ignore a certain distance and discover the location of enemies or even hidden devices in an instant can bring extremely important opportunities!
None of the people present were stupid, and they quickly understood the meaning of Shen Shi's words.
"So, we must protect these detectors!" Todd looked at Shen Shi, "Sir, you must have a plan."
"Of course." Shen Shi did not deny, "The construction of the entire planet fortress actually uses these detectors as important nodes. Since they can only work best when they are far away from life, they can only be placed
in space, but every detector must be equipped with a space base equipped with barrier nodes, because among the entire planet’s protective barriers, the protection of nodes is the highest.”
As he finished speaking, space bases began to appear one after another around the miniature blue star in front of him.
But everyone was stunned.
They originally understood this kind of space base to be a place similar to a military base, equipped with important instruments and weapons.
But these "bases" in front of us
But there are silver-white arcs on the surface. It looks like a part of the shell has been cut off from a round ball, divided into 256 pieces, evenly distributed on the entire surface of the blue star, between each other.
There seemed to be a surge of light, forming a defensive stance that enveloped the entire Blue Star.
etc--
Only then did everyone realize that this was a shrunken blue star!
In other words, the area of these "curved shells"
"Every piece of space base's outer defense is a high-resistance device." Shen Shi stretched out his hand and tapped it gently, and a circular arc slowly broke away from the miniature blue star. As it continued to expand, it came in front of everyone.
Although it is still a reduced model compared to its original size, everyone can already vaguely see that the outer surface of this arc seems to be a layer of flowing metallic liquid.
Some people recalled seeing Shen Shi's spaceship and seemed to have some understanding.
"It seems that you have guessed it." Shen Shi naturally saw what everyone was thinking and nodded slightly, "Yes, it is usually used to make the outer shell of spaceships. My spaceship also uses this kind of material, but it is more
It is more advanced. It has extremely strong conversion capabilities for various forms of energy impact. Even if the tungsten rod is accelerated to sub-light speed and bombarded directly, it can absorb all the kinetic energy and remain unscathed."
This example is vivid enough that some people even subconsciously opened their mouths. If they were not in space, they would have to take a deep breath.
Tungsten rod accelerated to sub-light speed?
You know, the formula for calculating kinetic energy is (1/2)mv? In other words, the speed directly adds a square to the kinetic energy!
The square of the speed of light…
With such an astronomical figure, even if it penetrates the entire blue star, it would be as easy as popping a bubble!
And this small metal liquid can actually withstand this kind of impact? Still unscathed?
Facing the astonishment of everyone, Shen Shi's tone remained calm: "If this level cannot be reached, then defense in interstellar wars and even interstellar navigation will be meaningless. Most spaceships can easily
It accelerates some materials with a density far exceeding that of tungsten rods to sub-light speed. During the sub-light speed navigation, it is also easy to collide with various materials. After all, interstellar technology has reached this level in terms of energy conversion.
, then these are just spears and shields at the same level."
Gulu.
Some people can't help but have their throats roll.
The truth is this, but the understanding cannot be accepted in a short time.
It's like in ancient times, the number "100 million" was extremely unfamiliar to most people.
It seems to represent unimaginable, endless numbers.
But in modern times it happens all the time.
Some people originally had a certain degree of confidence in mankind's most powerful weapon - nuclear weapons, but now it seems that this idea is too naive. The nuclear energy on the Blue Star that can destroy the world is facing an interstellar war.
The energy level in it is obviously not enough!
I'm afraid that even if they use all their nuclear weapons to bombard the silver-white "space base shell" in front of them, they won't be able to shake it at all!
This kind of war
The entire Blue Star is extremely fragile!
"This is just the outer defense of the space base. In addition, there is a shield generator." Shen Shi turned over his arc-shaped silver-white space base. All of a sudden, everyone opened their eyes slightly.
.
Because they saw that on the side of this sunken space base facing the Blue Star, in addition to a spherical building in the center that was constantly emitting a shield force field, there were also densely packed buildings of various types!
What kind of space base is this?
It’s simply a space city!
Two hundred and fifty-six space bases are two hundred and fifty-six huge space cities?
"These space bases will become the safest places among the entire planet's fortresses, so many vital production factories, civilization hubs, scientific bases, etc. will be placed on them." Shen Shi said calmly, "Of course.
