Chapter 473 Brother Tiger's Seven Days and the Afterglow of the Fortress[6800words]
Of course, it is not an easy task to allow a huge ship to make a short-distance jump.
There is an essential difference between warp subspace and curvature subspace.
To enter the curvature subspace, flying units must first use media engines and curvature-like space compression technology to continuously accelerate until they exceed the speed of light.
At the moment when the speed of light is exceeded, the interface between the instantaneously formed perfect curvature bubble and the original three-dimensional world will undergo a sudden change.
Vehicles and curvature bubbles will enter the curvature subspace directly.
As long as it can stay above the speed of light, it won't be thrown out.
The warp subspace is different. The material is first wrapped by the warp subspace layer, but the relative velocity between the material and the original three-dimensional space can be 0.
At the moment when the warping subspace layer is fully formed, it will break through the limitations of the first level of cosmic rules, pull itself and the wrapped matter directly into the warping subspace, and follow the direction of the quantum entanglement and the basic force tidal oscillation field to fix a point.
appear in another location.
The fold subspace and the curvature subspace can overlap, showing that the nature of the fold is lower level.
Human beings have not yet mastered the core principles of warping, and have only taken shortcuts by using the core of the Mystical Tribe to realize its application.
This is just like when humans first invented gunpowder and knew that by mixing saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal in proportion, they could create an explosive powder.
Why can it explode?
That's not important.
Just blow it up and that's it.
It took humans many years to figure out the ratio of one sulfur, one carbon, and three nitrates. After countless trials and errors, we got closer and closer.
Now, Fulides's use of the core of the Mizu is also based on huge calculations. Without understanding the principles, he forcibly calculates the most reasonable match, finds the most perfect jump energy output curve, and surrounds it with a length of ten kilometers.
The bullet-type Morrowind II built a large enough and stable warping subspace layer.
This is the ultimate manifestation of applied science completely overpowering basic theoretical science, and is not essentially different from the use of human research on gunpowder.
The advantage is that this allows humans to gain some convenience in advance when their understanding of the universe has not reached a sufficient depth.
The disadvantage is that humans must face risks when they control technology that should not belong to them, just like the frequent gunpowder explosion accidents back then.
Under normal circumstances, the smaller Mizu core can only carry small mass units to complete the jump.
The Shadow Academy of Science, led by Xiaofu and Ou Qinglan, applied the stargate jumping principle to the ship, using the super-large black hole rotating around the shadow galaxy as a fulcrum to find a particularly strong gravitational line network in the universe.
The supermassive black hole that sucks in the shadow galaxy is like a whirlpool in the center of a lake in the universe.
The huge gravitational field spreads in all directions around the black hole in a swirling flow in three-dimensional space.
One of the curved gravitational lines originates from the boundary of the black hole and then spreads, becoming the propulsion route of Morrowind 2.
Morrowind 2 will use the more stable curvature of the subspace structure provided by this gravity line, like being mounted on a warp slingshot, and will be ejected forward every once in a while.
This is the core principle of Morrowind 2’s short-range jump.
This gravitational line itself is curved, but after distorting the space, it becomes a straight line in the original three-dimensional space.
And this gravitational line just overlaps with the second orbit of the shadow galaxy around the black hole.
According to Xiaofu's calculations, assuming that more than six months later, when Morrowind 2 enters the orbit of the second shadow galaxy, the distance between the Sun's shadow and Morrowind 2 will be within one billion kilometers.
At this time, Morrowind 2 can use the close gravitational pull of the shadow of the sun to jump out of the black hole's gravitational line, instantly arrive near the shadow galaxy, and stop.
During the entire process, Morrowind 2 needed to perform more than 6,400 jumps, and each time it had to construct a perfect jump subspace membrane.
When leaving the jump space, it must perfectly fit with the external curvature subspace.
When it finally arrives, it is even more important to accurately capture the gravitational field of the shadow sun, break away from the attraction of the black hole's gravitational line, and complete a rapid turn, otherwise it will "jump" directly into the black hole.
In short, making Morrowind 2 jump and eject is a comprehensive solution that uses curvature, jump, and unified force to the extreme. Each step requires an extremely large amount of calculations, and there can be no mistakes.
One mistake and you're dead.
"Xiaofu, I understand what you mean, there are still risks, right?"
Freders took a mouthful of caviar with a spoon, and then took a swig of vodka boldly, "Yes, the failure rate is about 48.99%, which is higher than I expected. But I didn't discuss it with you in advance, then
It’s because I know your character, Brother Yi…”
Chen Feng laughed loudly, "You will definitely take risks, right?"
"Yes."
Chen Feng patted Freders on the shoulder, "You know me well, Xiaofu. It's good. If you're late, it's better not to be there. Then I'm going to give a lecture. Xiaofu, you should pay more attention to rest."
"Okay bro."
Chen Feng gave the soldiers a practical drill on the first day of the training class, and basically achieved the goal.
Over the next few days, he learned his lesson and no longer did it himself, but only served as an instructor honestly.
The soldiers learned the basic tutorials and advanced tutorials very quickly, and the advanced textbooks were not a hindrance. However, in the last step of the master-level textbook, when Chen Feng wanted others to learn the same level of battlefield intuition as himself, he was stumped.
Already.
The students seemed to be struggling and their progress was slow.
It was his instinctive judgment on the battlefield that determined that Chen Feng, with the same level of equipment, could stand firm despite being surrounded by dangers in a hundred-man battle.
Obviously, Chen Feng's extraordinary intuitive reaction is the core quality that truly makes him stand out.
He never takes pride in himself, and he is not afraid of being surpassed by others, so he sincerely hopes that others can learn his skills.
There were difficulties this time, but at least he saw hope.
In the previous timeline, people were trapped in the "Warrior Plan" and "Thinking Cocoon" that enveloped the whole society. They pursued absolute rationality in everything, found a reasonable fulcrum for everything, and pursued a low error rate.
This looks good.
The advantage is that this allows the soldiers to have a very high level limit, but the disadvantage is that there is a lack of creativity. The soldiers' thinking patterns when using equipment are stuck in stereotypes, making it difficult to break through the upper limit.
This time I had the same problem, even more serious.
But during the Hundred Years' War, returning soldiers went out again and again, experiencing life and death again and again.
These experiences at the boundary between life and death allowed the returning soldiers to constantly break through their own bottlenecks, gradually break the blockade in their thinking, and constantly refresh their upper limits.
These warriors have even more battlefield experience than Chen Feng.
Assuming that Chen Feng is currently on the tenth level, the warriors in the previous timeline are only on the first level. The realm of the returning warriors in this timeline has generally reached the fifth level, and some have even reached the fifth level.
The seventh, eighth or even ninth floor.
This is why the trial warriors Chen Feng met were too strong and almost overturned him.
At the same time, Chen Feng also firmly believed that the soldiers should start from the fifth level and move up a little bit. The hope of reaching the tenth level is countless times greater than before.
In order to promote his teaching plan, Chen Feng selected a team of assistants from among the soldiers to help him control the details, assist in adjusting and improving teaching materials, and at the same time constantly provide Fanxing with new and more accurate evaluation parameters.
It's fun to say.
Ding Hu, who had the lowest rank and weakest strength among all the soldiers participating in the training, became Chen Feng's first assistant.
Most people also didn't understand why Chen Feng would appoint an "old bastard" lieutenant who had been working in Shadow of the Earth for hundreds of years as his first assistant.
Even the Xianzhe Academy, which was basically informed, raised objections and believed that Chen Feng's push for Ding Hu to be promoted was a bit nepotistic.
Ding Hu himself didn't understand either.
He wanted to ask Chen Feng why it was me, but in the end he didn't dare to ask, and instead insisted on asking.
On the first day, Ding Hu was walking on thin ice. He didn't dare to give advice or criticize. He just acted as a sounding board, seizing the time to study harder and work hard to absorb and digest.
The next day, Brother Hu transformed under the pressure.
Although he himself was unable to complete the high-intensity operations performed by senior soldiers due to his long absence from the battlefield, it did not prevent him from beginning to understand the problems in other people's operations.
For example, when moving, the engine power is increased by 2%, resulting in an error of 0.05 seconds in the landing time from movement to rest.
Another example is how much to switch the incident angle and how high or low the power of the energy weapon is to complete the fire focus according to the instructions, so that it can better respond to other people's offensive and stimulate resonance.
Or in some environments that require quick decision-making, soldiers subconsciously make intuitive judgments about where there is room for improvement.
At what level and what simulation environment should be chosen for intensive training?
Ding Hu has some opinions on the daily training content of most people.
But at this time, he still lacked self-confidence and would consult with Chen Feng every time he raised a question.
At first, Ding Hu was worried that he would disturb the sage.
The other party will be even more impatient.
He did not expect that Chen Feng would show great enthusiasm for giving advice to him, telling him everything he knew. After every question, the sage would ask one more question, "Brother Hu, do you understand? Still."
If there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask.”
The sage is very gentle and enthusiastic, which is completely different from the fierce and tough character he shows when teaching in actual combat with others.
Brother Hu was moved and frightened at the same time, wishing he could die in a mess.
This wasn't the end yet. At the end of the day's tutorial, Chen Feng specifically called out to Ding Hu, "Brother Hu, you did a great job today and made rapid progress. The accuracy of the problems and improvement plans you picked out exceeded 50%. I'm waiting for you.
When the accuracy of judgment reaches 100%, I can confidently and boldly hand over all the teaching tasks to you. Believe in yourself, you have the potential to become the number one instructor in mankind. Come on!"
It is said that there were cries in Ding Hu's dormitory that night, and some strange words such as "What virtue and ability am I?" and "I will live up to the trust of the sages."
The first half of Ding Hu's life was very smooth.
He joined the military camp at a young age and ranked first in internal competitions many times. In less than twenty years, he climbed from a private to the rank of lieutenant. He was then seconded to the Daxue Mountain Base, which has trained countless elites. At the same time, he also
He took over the important task of being the class instructor of the "Sage Reserve" who had high hopes.
At that time, Ding Hu led seven or eight recruit classes, and the members of one class were all Chen Feng No. xx.
In addition to similar looks to the sages, these members also have outstanding basic qualities.
At that time, Ding Hu was very ambitious and vowed to train his students to become talents.
As time passed, he basically achieved his ambition.
One after another, "Chen Feng" and other trainees graduated from his recruit class and went to the battlefield.
Some people never return, while others gallop around and rise higher and higher.
Among the students under Ding Hu, the one with the highest military rank currently is Pang De, who was promoted to major general due to his military exploits.
Before Pound, there was a young genius named Chen Feng No. 1987, who was known as a master of both command and combat. Before his death in battle, he had become a lieutenant general in charge of an entire large fleet at the age of less than fifty.
Although Chen Feng repeatedly denied it in 1987, many people still firmly believed that he was the reincarnation of the sage.
Ding Hu almost thought so too.
Those were the proudest years in Ding Hu's life. When talking to others, his nostrils would turn upward.
He didn't understand why his promotion path seemed to have been hit by the pause button when he reached the rank of second-level instructor in Daxue Mountain.
Like other instructors, if they teach a general-level student, they must at least be promoted to a major.
But luckily for him, he was pinned down in the snowy mountains, unable to move, and felt very depressed and frustrated.
He gave himself promotion reports again and again, and even dared to go to the headquarters to bang the table.
His reports were rejected again and again.
Later, he simply asked for war and wanted to join the external battlefield as a recruit, but he was still rejected.
Although he never complained, he certainly couldn't help feeling disappointed.
But about thirty-six years ago, in 1987, Chen Feng was killed in the Battle of Sirius Twin Stars, and all unrealistic dreams were shattered.
People's expectations were dashed.
Ding Hu was so depressed that he no longer went to the headquarters, no longer wanted to be promoted, and he was even more dissatisfied with his determination to run away.
He seemed to have accepted his fate, working peacefully as an ordinary instructor in the Snowy Mountains, and was mentally prepared to wait for the final battle with others in the shadow galaxy.
Now, as a person who has taught countless "Chen Feng", Ding Hu finally waited for the sage himself.
Before being asked to meet by Chen Feng, he didn't know that he was special.
Now he understood how much Chen Feng had high hopes for him.
The first instructor of mankind.
Six simple words, but they contain immeasurable weight.
Ding Hu secretly made up his mind to make himself worthy of the sage's praise.
On the third day, his judgment accuracy reached 60%.
On the fourth day, 70%.
On the fifth day, 80%.
Day six, 90%.
Day seven, 100%.
Some people, including the Shadow Force soldiers, who were originally unconvinced by Ding Hu, gradually became convinced.
Everyone's talents are really different.
Some people are naturally good at charging into battle, while others can see through the imperfections of others at a glance and are naturally suited to be instructors.
When it comes to contribution, there is no distinction between superior and inferior.
Maybe Ding Hu would be a hindrance on the battlefield, but with his help, even if others could only unleash 1% more of their potential, he would still have made outstanding achievements.
Since then, Chen Feng has officially promoted Ding Hu to the position of chief assistant, no longer personally involved in teaching content, but instead only looking at the outline of training reports provided by Ding Hu every day.
Ding Hu's achievements over the past many years have finally been fully recognized. Combined with his current work, his military rank has risen instantly and he has become a lieutenant general.
When the handover was officially confirmed, Chen Feng patted Ding Hu on the shoulder and said: "Brother Hu, just look at it and I'll say you can do it."
Ding Hu beat his chest and swore, "That's because you, sage, taught me well. If you say I can do it, I will definitely do it!"
Chen Feng smiled and said, "Okay, let's go to work."
Chen Feng withdrew from the virtual space and opened a new cosmology textbook.
Before reading, he curled his lips and smiled, secretly dumbfounding.
Before he started to pull Brother Hu up, Chen Feng actually didn't expect him to really take over his mantle and take over the entire teaching plan.
Chen Feng wanted to be lazy, and then he tried to be a living doctor on a dead horse.
After all, he couldn't just be an instructor. He still had to read books and couldn't be illiterate anymore.
Chen Feng did not deny that he had deliberately tormented Brother Hu by the way.
Brother Hu has been the first instructor in two timelines. This time he has been cheated by the Xianzhe Academy for most of his life, and his potential has not been fully realized. Brother Hu should still be allowed to "work more for those who are capable".
The result was good, Ding Hu really spent seven days to repay himself with a perfect instructor.
Chen Feng was shocked.
Really how bold the people are and how productive the land is.
Is this the power of faith?
God says to man, you can do it.
Then this person will really do it.
After the hustle and bustle came tranquility. After teaching most of the teaching work to Ding Hu, Chen Feng's daily life became much simpler.
Get up on time every day, first spend two hours completing a set of physical training, and then spend two hours operating the Star Shadow Armor in the simulation space for a high-intensity confrontation training.
After lunch, I took a short lunch break, started reading in the afternoon, continued to study cosmology-related knowledge in depth, and chatted with Xiaofu during dinner.
After dinner, Chen Feng will contact the Shadow Galaxy again, take charge of the overall situation, take a look at the battle reports outside, and then play a few games with Tang Tianxin.
Unknowingly, in such a peaceful life, two months have passed.
After dinner that day, Chen Feng did not play chess with Tang Tianxin, but attended a high-level meeting.
The core of the discussion at the meeting was about the analysis of the new war situation.
In the past two months, the situation outside has been turned upside down, changing day by day.
All the baits laid out by humans in the arms of the hunters are peeled off layer by layer by the compound-eyed man like peeling an onion.
The Orton galaxy and the Xuanwu galaxy were successively breached.
Just three hours before the meeting, the DF-711 Fortress starship was finally breached.
Since then, only the last shadow galaxy has remained as the core strength of mankind.
Lu Xianfeng first clicked on a video projection.
In the video, the originally noisy DF-711 galaxy returned to deathly silence, leaving only the ruins of a desolate and dilapidated battlefield.
In this space, countless wreckage belonging to humans or those with compound eyes are floating around, and from time to time there is a glimmer of high-energy reaction, but there is no trace of human activity.
An ultra-small star floated there quietly, emitting a dim glow to the outside world, and was stimulated by metal fragments that hit it from time to time. Flames were sparked, reflecting black spots.
More debris surrounding the star's gravitational field sometimes gathers together, or moves silently, seeming to become the fragmented asteroid belt of the 001 star.
Star 001 will inhale more and more debris over a period ranging from a hundred thousand to tens of thousands of years, gradually increase in mass, and finally collapse into a small neutron star.
The Compound Eyes' prism ship array finally completed the encirclement. Although it failed to completely disintegrate the fortress ship, it tore it into countless pieces and allowed the "captured" 001 star to see the light of day again.
001 gained "freedom", but became a "dead object" in the universe and was destined to die quickly.
Suddenly, the video stopped abruptly.
Lu Xianfeng introduced: "This is the last piece of information sent back by our last artificial intelligence detector. There are a total of 7,134,621,117 people in the df-711 fortress starship.
, all members sacrificed. A moment of silence."
…
"The silence is over."
Ou Qinglan stood up, first glanced at Chen Feng, who was sitting in the chief position, and then briefly introduced the important information that the compatriots in the fortress starship had exchanged their lives for.
Through years of attempts, and several months of squeezing stars to the limit during head-to-head battles with the Compound Eye fleet, the scientific researchers in the DF-711 fortress have summarized a complete system for rapid development of stellar energy.
The development of stellar energy is different from fossil energy, and it is also different from pure light energy absorption. Every time stellar energy is extracted, it may lead to violent reactions.
Once the reaction intensity exceeds the limit, it may trigger a chain of drastic changes in the star, leading to uncontrollable disasters.
To control the direct exploitation of stars to a level that is both strong enough and safe enough requires a huge scientific system and long-term experience accumulation.
In addition to the direct confrontation with the prism ship, the development system of the df-711 fortress starship against the 001 star is the real core achievement.
"We have just completed rapid absorption. This is the star in-depth development plan of the Academy of Sciences. We plan to use the remaining two months to build a shadow sun development system as quickly as possible. Please take a look."
Chen Feng took a quick glance and didn't understand the specific details, but the conclusion was very straightforward.
Once the rapid development plan is successful, the remaining life of the shadow sun will be rapidly shortened from about five billion years to five thousand years, and the energy release rate will be accelerated by a million times.
According to the analysis results, if humans can master this technology five hundred years in advance, humans will be able to rapidly explode in productivity in some planetary systems, and the current scale of human forces can be expanded at least ten times.
This is a good technology, but it’s a pity that it came too late.
Chen Feng objected, "I took a look at the current energy reserves in the shadow galaxy. Aren't there still huge amounts of biological batteries available? There is no need to directly squeeze the shadow sun in order to obtain more energy, right?"
Ou Qinglan shook his head and said: "The composition of the shadow sun is exactly the same as the sun, but it is very different from the 001 star. The shadow sun, the 001 star, and even almost every star in the Orion Arm are different. There should be different developments for different stars.
Law. We have verified one in Fortress Starship
Planet, if we have time, of course we would like to verify it again in the shadow galaxy, so that we can summarize more universal laws. Sir, you can take it back after you write it down, even if we lose this time.
You can also reap the benefits of this technology in your next timeline."
Chen Feng was stunned, "Is that so?"
Before the war started, Ou Qinglan and others had already begun to prepare for the people in the next timeline.
It was in line with Lin Bu's criticism of Chen Feng, so much so that he didn't know how to answer.
He said calmly: "That's okay, you can decide on your own."
The meeting continues.
Chen Feng stopped speaking and listened quietly.
The commanders on the Shadow side changed their combat ideas.
Before Chen Feng appeared, their main strategy was to kill the prism ships as quickly as possible as their first priority.
Now the strategy has changed. It has become a strong defense and a tight defense, waiting for Chen Feng to arrive with the core of the fauna.
The first layer of defense front will be established outside the ten-layer Dyson membrane and will be dominated by the fortress chain array similar to the Basalt Galaxy.
The second front is laid out around the asteroid belt.
Humanity will deploy a large number of highly mobile troops in the asteroid belt, and use asteroids as natural cover to hide some land-based cannons and force field tear generators.
The third front is located outside the orbit of the Earth's shadow and within the orbit of Mars.
Humans have deployed a total of sixty-four spherical war fortresses, each with a diameter of three thousand kilometers, between the Earth and the shadow of Mars.
These sixty-four fortresses revolve around the shadow of the sun. Their orbits are staggered from each other, and they are delicately balanced with each other, forming a structure similar to c60 football ene.
The fourth front is the former "Mercury Shadow", now a polyhedral prism battleship with a diameter of 4878 kilometers.
Almost 90% of the scientific research power and administrative resources are concentrated in this huge prism battleship.
As for the leadership of the military system, they are distributed among the major fleets.
Chen Feng had nothing to say about the arrangement of the battle, and it would be a disservice to him if he did. He refused to comment and just nodded.
Time flies, and more than two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Marked by the triggering of the first space booby trap, the first batch of 30,000 compound-eyed warships arrived at the outskirts of the Shadow Galaxy.
The battle to defend humanity's last prosperous galaxy has officially begun.
Chen Feng was unable to participate in the war, but 14,000 of his 50,000 students were lost.
Fourteen thousand of the latest models, which contain all the cutting-edge technologies and rare materials of the huge Morrowind Empire, but do not have the ability to jump for the time being, turned into a torrent of steel on the battlefield.
The Torrent Task Force is the name this group of people gave themselves.
Chen Feng's students began to declare their force, blooming the last glorious afterglow of mankind.
