In addition to the game "Interstellar War", Zhao Changxing also specially designated a total of 10,000 adults, allowing them to immediately start research and experiments in military weapons.
In these years, except for the stun guns in the hands of the security officers of the Public Security Department, the new human civilization has not produced any weapons with the purpose of killing the enemy.
Hope it's not too late.
Xiao Xi's database contains detailed drawings of all weapons manufactured in the human era of Earth. After discussions with people, Zhao Changxing finally decided to build military radars, military satellites and electromagnetic guns first.
Military radars and military satellites are used to search for space targets and for space defense. The electromagnetic gun is the only weapon that Zhao Changxing has confirmed can be used in space warfare at this moment.
The power of high-speed projectiles launched through electromagnetic acceleration technology is far beyond that of various firearms or artillery shells driven by gunpowder.
As for what to build after these three things, it depends on how far the theoretical research progresses.
The army has been formed at this moment, but at this moment, except for himself, the chairman of the war committee, there are no soldiers. The main reason is that Zhao Changxing does not know what kind of training the soldiers should do.
There are no weapons and equipment, no war theory, and no training syllabus. What is the purpose of recruiting a group of strong young people? It is better to let them engage in production work first, and then formally recruit soldiers and start training after having preliminary war theory as a guide.
At this moment, the flame-type spaceship has already entered mass production, and the technology is mature, but if soldiers are to pilot this kind of spaceship to engage in interstellar battles, Zhao Changxing really can't pass the test of conscience.
This is no different than letting someone die.
On the planet Sedna, which still maintains peace, Zhao Changxing is almost single-handedly pushing people to start preliminary preparations for a space war.
During this period, due to war preparations, every adult's work tasks have become much more arduous, at least 20% more than before. But even so, people have no complaints - also because they are too simple
The social environment makes them very obedient.
This matter can only be said to have a bad side and a good side.
As for the game "Star Wars", its popularity has not been affected by the increase in work. People regard it more as a game and a way of entertainment to relax the spirit.
Therefore, under this situation, some people stood out and had the highest points. After the actual inspection, Zhao Changxing recruited them all into the war committee, gave them the position of committee member, and let them concentrate on studying war theory.
question.
Several years passed by in a hurry, and military satellites and ground radar systems whose performance reached about 80% of the Earth era were finally successfully developed. Zhao Changxing couldn't wait to start increasing production. In just five years, he built enough
Two hundred military satellites and 800 ground-based deep space radars are all deployed on the land and space of Sedna Star, striving to achieve the effect of monitoring the space and airspace around Sedna Star without blind spots.
At this time, the space elevator was finally completed and officially put into use. For the first time, people on Sedna had a stable and large-scale means of transporting supplies into space.
The original construction plan of the space nursery base was postponed and replaced by the construction task of a space dock.
The construction drawings of the space dock were designed by some people who had transformed into military industry experts with reference to the data in Xiaoxi's database. After the construction is completed, they will try to design and build a real space combat spacecraft in the dock.
come out.
In this regard, the members of the War Commission and military industry experts have reached a simple division of tasks. The members are responsible for proposing performance requirements, that is, what kind of spacecraft they want, what capabilities they have, and what they can do.
Military industry experts refuted their unrealistic needs and were responsible for realizing those practical needs.
This system is still quite immature at the moment. There are many functions that can be realized in theory, but military industry experts cannot realize them. There are also many functions that have no practical effect and have a strong game style demand, which have been refuted by military industry experts.
There is no way, no one is professional now. The members of the war committee are selected from the game, and the military industry experts may be drawn from the tractor factory.
There is no other way, just get used to it slowly and improve slowly.
The total mass of the planned space dock is as high as 1 million tons, which will require almost a full year of the space elevator's transportation capacity. Zhao Changxing immediately agreed to the application without any hesitation.
Of course, the transportation capacity throughout the year is not concentrated, but scattered over a period that may last more than ten years.
So the army recruitment plan began immediately. A total of about 1,000 people passed the review and became the first batch of soldiers in the history of new human civilization. The first task they received was to carry out the construction task of the space dock, and in this
During the process, they received adaptive training in a weightless environment - after all, combat spacecraft built in the future will certainly not be equipped with an artificial gravity system created through rotation.
The recruitment of military experts and soldiers has had a serious impact on current social production. After all, in essence, they are consumers of social resources, not producers.
Although no one chose to resist Zhao Changxing's order, some dissatisfied voices began to appear in society. Zhao Changxing chose to ignore them all.
In addition to giving priority to meeting the construction needs of the space dock, Zhao Changxing also began to arrange for the transportation of other supplies and began the construction of a new space cultivation base.
For war, population is also an extremely important resource. The greater the population, the greater the ability to withstand war. For example, if the total population of human civilization is one million at this moment, it will be completely impossible to absorb the current war demand.
There will be pressure.
The new space nursery base also uses an artificial gravity system that rotates to create gravity. The only difference from the Spark spacecraft is that it no longer adopts a circle design, but directly forms a long cylinder, like a roller.
.
Each of these "roller" bases has a length of up to one kilometer and a diameter of up to 300 meters. Each roller has an internal area of up to 900,000 square meters, which can accommodate about 3,000 minors. Correspondingly,
Its mass is also terrifying, counting its own weight alone, it is as high as 3 million tons.
This is under the premise of using new materials as much as possible and reducing the weight as much as possible.
Relying on the current capacity of this space elevator, it will take more than a year to build one.
As a result, this newly built space elevator entered a full-load carrying state as soon as it was completed. It was either transporting materials from the space dock. When it was not transporting materials from the space dock, it was transporting materials from the roller base, or it was transporting materials for the Spark spacecraft.
Replenishing supplies, transporting military supplies, etc., there is no pause 24 hours a day.
"Too slow, too slow."
Looking at the busy space elevator ground base all day long, Zhao Changxing shook his head and sighed from the bottom of his heart.
The clouds of war made him want to build ten space elevators in the next moment. It would be better if the capacity of each space elevator could be increased ten times on the existing basis - if it was twenty times, even better, it would be a dream.
It's funny to wake up, but the reality is that Zhao Changxing can't even build a new space elevator.
The social production order has reached its limit. Under Zhao Changxing's promotion, the entire human society has been like a spring stretched to its limit, and it is really impossible to allocate manpower to build it.
There is no other way but to wait slowly.
The electromagnetic gun was finally successfully developed, and its performance indicators reached that of a standard electromagnetic gun, which can accelerate a metal projectile with a mass of 0.5 grams to a speed of 7 kilometers per second at a firing rate of two rounds per minute.
A projectile with such speed and mass has a kinetic energy of about 12,000 joules, which is several times the kinetic energy of powerful firearm bullets in the earth's era. Under the premise of adopting a special projectile shape design, it can even tear through thick steel plates with ease.
During the test, special steel plates with a thickness of 200 mm were easily penetrated and a hole was created.
The members of the war committee and Zhao Changxing agreed that if there is no technological gap between these powerful projectiles, almost no armor with actual combat value can resist them.
So Zhao Changxing immediately issued a mass manufacturing order and built 200 units as quickly as possible. They were equipped on the surface of Sedna and in space to provide as much protection as possible for the entire planet.
While Zhao Changxing was intensively preparing for war, at a certain moment, a harsh alarm sounded suddenly from the combat readiness and defense room in the human government building of Sun City. A member of the war committee responsible for guarding the planet's defense system rushed in panic.
He came out looking pale.
Seeing the attitude of the committee member who used to scold Fang Qiu like a space war god, Zhao Changxing sighed secretly.
"It's still too young and unprofessional."
"Don't panic, what happened?"
Zhao Changxing's voice was still as calm as ever.
The committee member gasped for air, and it took a few seconds to calm down.
"Leader, leader, our planetary defense system has observed a target approaching our planet at high speed. According to the reflection waveform analysis, it, it seems to be a missile..."
Zhao Changxing narrowed his eyes slightly: "How much time is left until it hits us?"
"Five, five hours. No, it's accelerating. It might only be three hours."
