At this moment, the new-generation combat spacecraft that appeared in Han Yang's field of vision was roughly semicircular in shape.
It is 19 meters long, 10 meters wide at its widest point, and about 6 meters thick at its thickest point. If fully loaded with ammunition and supplies, its total weight is about 1,500 tons.
It is equipped with 16 electromagnetic guns, 8 of which can launch conventional electromagnetic gun projectiles, two can launch projectiles with greater mass, greater speed, and greater lethality, two electromagnetic cannons can launch micro interstellar missiles, and the remaining If you click on the last four items, you can fire low-speed, low-mass electromagnetic gun projectiles at a high rate of fire, specifically designed to hit incoming projectiles to avoid being hit.
In addition, it is equipped with 6 laser cannons. Four of them are small high-speed laser cannons, which play the same role as the four high-speed, low-speed, low-mass electromagnetic guns, and are also used to defend themselves.
The remaining 2 doors can fire high-energy lasers to directly burn enemy targets.
Its armor is made of high-performance alloy steel and has an implosion design. Even if the incoming projectile breaks through one's own defense and hits the armor, it will be weakened by the stress release and will not be directly penetrated.
It is also equipped with four high-speed precision radars and two long-range detection radars to enhance the perception of the battlefield as much as possible.
The internal power source is a high-power nuclear fusion power station. Responsible for propelling it to move are a total of 20 small high-power ion thrusters.
Among them, there are four main thrusters and 16 attitude adjustment thrusters.
The main thruster is responsible for accelerating it and is located at the rear of the spacecraft. Attitude adjustment thrusters are located on the top, bottom, left and right of the spacecraft, which can adjust its attitude extremely sensitively and quickly, allowing it to make evasive actions.
It can also be used to accelerate itself if necessary.
It is not equipped with a life support system inside because Han Yang has no need to use it. Correspondingly, there is no space reserved for personnel activities. Some are just maintenance lanes.
Each such spacecraft will have 20 multi-functional robots inside to undertake emergency repair tasks. Once the spacecraft is damaged, the robot will immediately go to deal with it.
It is a violent machine truly built for killing and war.
"A combat spacecraft of this tonnage and level... should be classified as the 'Stardust' class."
Han Yang made a decision.
Stardust is interstellar dust, extremely small. But countless interstellar dusts gather together to form vast dust clouds that stretch hundreds of millions of kilometers or even tens of thousands of light-years.
This kind of interstellar dust cloud is usually called a "nebula".
Han Yang has decided that in addition to the ordinary Stardust-class spacecraft like this one, he will also build one that is bigger, has thicker armor, stronger defense, stronger attack power, and more maneuverability. A powerful flagship-level large spaceship.
Han Yang planned to classify this large spacecraft into the "Nebula" class.
With the technology Han Yang has mastered at this stage, it is already the limit to create a Nebula-class combat spacecraft. However, when Han Yang masters more knowledge and becomes more technologically advanced in the future, he will be able to create a combat spacecraft that is larger and more powerful than the Nebula class.
"Interstellar dust clouds are the mother body of all stars in the universe. Stars and planets all evolve from interstellar dust clouds.
My smallest combat spacecraft is based on the most basic component of interstellar dust clouds, divided into levels of 'stardust'. After that, there is the 'Nebula' level.
For battleships larger than the Nebula class, I will divide them into macroscopic star classes.
Above the nebula level, there is the asteroid level, then the dwarf planet level, then the satellite level, planet level, star level, star cluster level, all the way to the river system level. "
Han Yang made plans for the future development path.
"I don't know when I will be able to build a river-class battleship. By that time, my technology will be so advanced, and the world I can see will be so vast."
After secretly thinking about the future for a moment, Han Yang withdrew his attention and once again focused on his only Stardust-class battleship in front of him.
At this moment, Han Yang has stopped all scientific research tasks. Because at the current level of basic physics, everything that can be studied has been studied to the limit. Those who have not reached the limit are unable to continue research due to the lack of supplies here on Jade God.
Therefore, Han Yang put all his computing power into the manufacture of spacecraft.
At this moment, the entire Jade God base started to operate precisely again.
There are mountains of rare minerals stored in the base, as well as conventional minerals mined from the Jade Star, as well as underground mines, planting bases and livestock bases with a total area of tens of thousands of square kilometers. The biological resources produced poured into various factories like a tsunami.
In the various suspended pipes in the Jade God Base, one suspended train after another shuttles rapidly, and one suspended train can transport more than dozens of tons of materials.
Above the ground and on the railway tracks, heavy-haul trains roar all the time. There are also helicopter-like aircraft flying rapidly in the sky. There are more than tens of millions of robots busy day and night, non-stop. In the factory, the assembly lines are like running water, producing the equipment and components Han Yang needs.
There are at least tens of millions of tasks advancing simultaneously in the huge Jade God base. There are interactions between different tasks, each affecting each other.
For example, if a factory does not have timely replenishment of raw materials, it will have to stop production. Its suspension of production will affect the tasks in the assembly plant. If it spreads like this, it will affect the operation of the entire base.
Similar situations are everywhere in the Jade God Base. But this kind of thing where the whole was affected due to a mistake in one aspect has never happened.
Because Han Yang used his huge computing power to integrate all these things.
He can grasp every minute detail in real time, know what is happening anywhere in the base at the same time, and know every process detail instantly.
Even if an unexpected incident does occur somewhere, Han Yang can instantly make up for it by operating other aspects, and there is no way it will affect the whole.
Han Yang's super computing power, as well as the super control brought by super computing power, and the efficiency that is unimaginable by ordinary intelligent life, were vividly displayed at this moment.
At this moment, under Han Yang's simultaneous control, every robot, every smart device, every factory, and every train in the Yushen base seemed to be emitting the same cry at the same time.
We want a spaceship! We want a spaceship!
Go all out and build a spaceship at any cost! Build lots of spaceships!
Under this situation, in just one month, the number of Stardust-class battleships owned by Han Yang increased from one to 500. One year later, he had 6,000 Stardust-class battleships in his hands, two years later, 12,000 ships, and four years later, 24,000 ships.
During these four years, Han Yang also started the manufacturing of supporting battlefield facilities.
Spy satellites, communication satellites, armed satellites, infrared detection satellites, interstellar mines, interstellar forts, and so on.
With the computing power that Han Yang can possess now that silicon-based chips have developed to the limit, he can control approximately 15,000 Stardust-class battleships at the same time if he goes all out.
But it is obviously impossible for Han Yang to devote all his computing power to controlling the battleship.
The ground base also requires his input of computing power to maintain operation, as does the logistics base.
Factories need to be running all the time and producing spare parts all the time. Ground defense bases need to operate to guard against attacks from space. The maintenance factory needs to operate, the damaged spacecraft needs to be repaired, the mine needs to operate, and minerals need to be supplied to the factory...
In addition, Han Yang must allocate a large amount of computing power at all times to control automated combat equipment, as well as equipment such as spy satellites, communication satellites, and armed satellites.
Of course, interstellar war is not just about throwing spaceships into the battlefield and fighting like a fight.
Interstellar war is a true information war. This has long been verified by Han Yang's long-term research on war science and countless simulations.
In the interstellar battlefield of head-on confrontation, it can even be said that whoever has the right to information will have the initiative.
This requires maintaining the existence of a huge number of satellite observation networks at all times, and sensing the real battlefield situation through observation equipment on satellites and warships. Only in this way can the next step be made more targeted.
Overall, after allocating a corresponding share of computing power, Han Yang can control up to about 8,000 warships at the same time.
Of course, in a combat situation. If it is a daily situation, just controlling the spacecraft forward and backward, it does not take up much computing power, and it is easy to control tens of thousands of spacecraft.
In a combat situation, every spacecraft must always pay attention to the front, rear, left, and right, and make decisions at all times, maneuver, attack, defend, repair, etc., and the computing power consumption will be dozens of times or even more than usual.
The computing power requirements for ground bases and other aspects are higher, and at the same time, there are fewer spacecrafts that can be controlled. The computing power requirements in other aspects are low, and there are more spaceships. But it will always fluctuate around the figure of 8,000 ships and will not deviate too much.
But even so, Han Yang still built a total of 24,000 warships.
If you can't control it for the time being, just let it go. When the spaceship is damaged in battle, the computing power can be immediately transferred to the backup spacecraft, and it can be used immediately to maintain peak combat power at all times.
At this moment, these 24,000 Stardust-class battleships are hidden in the vast space, constantly conducting various practical exercises to verify Han Yang's war theory.
Of course, in order not to be discovered by the observation power of the inner solar system, Han Yang unified and limited the intensity to about 1% of actual combat. In this way, the spacecraft thruster will not be too bright and the scale will not be too large, minimizing the possibility of being discovered.
After completing the manufacturing of the Stardust-class battleship, Han Yang immediately started a new round of manufacturing.
The warship manufacturing this time is mainly based on the Nebula-class warship, which is the largest and most powerful that can be produced under the current technological level.
It's not that Han Yang doesn't want to build larger warships, but that actually doesn't make sense.
If he piles up materials without thinking, Han Yang can indeed build a super large battleship equipped with 10,000 electromagnetic guns. However, the propulsion technology cannot keep up, and the maneuverability of the spacecraft is worrying.
If the spacecraft is too large and the defense technology cannot keep up, it will become a living target.
Besides, energy technology cannot keep up. Dozens of nuclear fusion power stations are integrated into the spacecraft, and load balancing needs to be carried out between different power stations. The complexity will increase exponentially, and I am afraid that its own failure will cause Han Yang to be in a hurry.
Taken together, based on the current technological level, the highest warship with practical significance is the Nebula class.
Han Yang plans to build 600 Nebula-class battleships.
The computing power required to control a Nebula-class battleship is approximately 6 times that of a Stardust-class battleship. The ratio of Han Yang's plan is that every 34 Stardust-class battleships are equipped with one Nebula-class battleship, which is considered a formation.
In this way, after excluding other aspects of computing power consumption, the power Han Yang can control at the same time is 6,800 Stardust-class battleships plus 200 Nebula-class battleships, for a total of 200 formations.
In addition to the Nebula-class battleships, there is the construction of logistic support spacecraft.
For example, large logistics supply bases, logistics maintenance bases, minesweepers, minelayers, transport ships, etc.
Logistics support spaceships do not need to participate in combat, and do not need to consider combat performance. They only need to consider basic survivability. There are not so many scruples, and they can be built very large.
In addition to the logistics support spacecraft, Han Yang also manufactured a third type of spacecraft.
Similar to the Stardust-class spacecraft, but with most of the intelligent modules removed, it is a small combat spacecraft suitable for use by human resistance fighters.
Considering that it is impossible for human warriors to be as single-minded as themselves, the performance of this small combat spacecraft is worse than that of the Stardust-class battleship. In addition, it is impossible for them to cooperate with each other as well as themselves, and it may be even more difficult to attack the Eta guard ship.
But they only need to fight guerrillas and do not participate in frontal battlefield battles. This performance is completely sufficient.
Besides, there are so many raw materials left in the Jade God Base, they cannot be wasted. After all, causing spaceships to support the rebels can play a role and reduce your own pressure, right?
It took more than a year to complete the 200 Nebula-class battleships as scheduled.
The Nebula-class battleship is roughly oblate in shape, with a diameter of about 26 meters and a thickness of about 7 meters at its thickest point.
All the equipment on it have been greatly improved compared to the Stardust level. For example, there are 36 electromagnetic guns on it. In addition to the conventional self-defense electromagnetic guns and offensive electromagnetic guns, it is also equipped with a main gun.
The projectiles fired by this main gun have a mass of up to 3 grams and can reach a speed of about 350 kilometers per second, which is extremely powerful.
There are also 10 laser cannons equipped, with greater power and higher power.
The power of the internal nuclear fusion reactor, armor protection strength, anti-interference and radiation resistance, the thrust of the ion thruster, internal stability and reliability, etc., all exceed that of the Stardust-class battleship, and it is truly qualified to become the flagship of a squadron. .
At the same time, Han Yang also built six large-scale comprehensive space bases that can supply and repair 120 warships at the same time. Of the small warships supplied to the rebels, 5,662 were built, which was considered to have completely used up the resources previously reserved.
At this moment, Han Yang was filled with emotion when he looked at the nearly 30,000 warships parked in space, as well as a large number of auxiliary spacecraft, as well as large cargo ships loaded with satellites, mines, missiles, forts and other combat preparation facilities.
He knew that after so many years of development and preparation, at this moment, it was finally time for a complete showdown with the Eta people.
At this stage, it is impossible not to have a showdown with the Eta people.
The scythes of the Eta people have all been cut on the top rich people like themselves. It can be foreseen how harshly the Eta people have squeezed the bottom.
The real purpose of the so-called easing policy towards the bottom is just to weaken the resistance. Once it was discovered that this policy was useless in weakening the rebels, the détente policy would be abandoned immediately.
Every day, thousands of human workers die tragically on Pluto. Every day, on every planet, countless poor people at the bottom die of cold and hunger.
They should have had a good life. They may be ordinary, marry an ordinary wife or husband, give birth to an ordinary child, and live an ordinary life.
But what can ordinary people pursue? It is enough that you can live an ordinary life and live with dignity without anyone bullying or oppressing you.
The arrival of the Eta people took away all this.
In particular, as the resistance becomes increasingly active and Pluto's large-scale development strategy becomes increasingly hindered, the Eta people have almost completely torn off their hypocritical masks and no longer cover up their oppression of human civilization.
I don't care about your life or death, I just want the implementation of the Pluto development strategy. After the strategy is implemented, whether your civilization dies or not has nothing to do with me.
Under this situation, it's time for a showdown.
If there is no showdown... maybe civilization will really perish.
"Then... set off and head to the inner solar system!"
Earth, Fuxing Industrial Park, in the president's office, Han Yang was on the phone with an official of the Governor's Office enthusiastically, talking about interstellar transportation, while thinking about the situation hundreds of billions of kilometers away in his mind. The huge fleet outside issued an order.
At this moment, the Jade God Base, which had been operating for hundreds of years, and the huge factory that had been roaring for hundreds of years stopped operating at the same time.
At this moment, all the lights of the Jade God Base, which was as bright as day, were turned off and turned into darkness.
At this moment, tens of millions of robots that are busy day and night, never stopping, line up one by one to enter the warehouse and enter a dormant state.
At this moment, the train, which had traveled an unknown distance, entered the warehouse and began to seal it.
The surface of the huge Jade God is still covered in ice for thousands of miles. Water ice, dry ice, methane ice, ice tropulin, etc., still maintain the shape they had before Han Yang came, without any change, as if Han Yang had never been there.
Nothing has changed, and it seems like everything is different from before.
The Jade God base was completely sealed. Han Yang's huge computing power has been evacuated from here and poured into battleships and spaceships one after another.
A total of 30,000 spaceships of various types started to accelerate together. In an instant, from the rear, it seemed as if there were tens of thousands more shining stars in the vast dark universe.
At this moment, it seems that every satellite and every spacecraft is chanting the same slogan.
Set off! Set off! fighting! fighting!
The time has come to seek the independence of mankind, and the time to drive the Eta people out of the solar system has come!
Thirty thousand spaceships embarked on the journey together.
Time passed slowly, and several months passed in the blink of an eye. At this time, except for the more than 5,000 warships preparing to support the rebels, which were still accelerating, the other spacecraft stopped accelerating at the same time and entered a state of inertial navigation.
They are like lifeless stones, inconspicuous in this vast universe. If it were not for close observation, I am afraid that even with the technology of the Eta people, there would be no trace of these spacecrafts.
The battleships that supported the rebels accelerated for a longer period of time than the other spacecraft, and thus gained higher speeds. After they dispersed and each had an independent orbit, they also stopped accelerating and began to move towards the inner solar system.
The reason for this is because Han Yang hopes that they can reach the inner solar system first. Also, spreading out will reduce the chance of detection.
After some time, each of these spacecraft started decelerating. However, because it is relatively scattered and the tail flame of a single spacecraft is relatively dim, the probability of being discovered by the Eta people is not high.
Before Han Yang's main fleet reached the edge of the solar system, these spacecraft had already sneaked into the solar system quietly. Han Yang's information has already reached various resistance armies first.
"The number of spaceships supporting you this time is greater than ever before, and the overall performance is also higher than ever before.
I need you to take advantage of it immediately, do your best to carry out the largest sneak attacks, plunders, and guerrillas, and do everything you can to create trouble for the Ita people and contain the Ita people's forces.
Because...this is the last batch of aid I will give you. After this batch of aid, I have no more aid for you.
But you don’t need to worry, because the time has come to start a frontal battlefield battle with the Eta people and drive the Eta people out of the solar system.
Me, it doesn’t matter whether you called me Fuxi, Lao A, Polaris, or Overlord before. But from now on, I want you to call me by a unified name.
Blues!
I, the leader of the Blue Army, leading the Blue Army fleet, am officially returning at this moment! Officially declare war on the Eta people!
My compatriots, my comrades-in-arms, you will soon see the day of human independence. I promise you, this day will come soon! "
At this moment, all the rebels in the entire solar system were boiling.
Red Mountain Army, Earth Party, Heavenly Army, Bare Shirt Army, Survival Society, Tiger Society, Restoration of the Earth Organization...
Blues! It’s the Blues! It turned out to be the largest human resistance organization hundreds of years ago!
It turns out that our comrades in the Blue Army have been providing us with assistance all these years!
Although I don’t know what happened, where the Blues are hiding, and how they achieved their current strength, but is it important?
unimportant! Not important at all! The important thing is that the Blue Army fleet has returned, and the Blue Army leader personally announced that he is declaring war on the Eta people! Drive the Eta people out of the solar system!
Then, what is there to hesitate about? What else is there to hesitate about?
fighting! fighting!
At this moment, the already chaotic situation in the solar system became even more chaotic. Traces of rebel fleets began to appear even around the most heavily defended Earth.
However, in the midst of this chaos, outside the orbit of Pluto, about 5.5 billion kilometers from the sun and about 1.2 billion kilometers from Neptune, there are a total of 24,000 combat spaceships in addition to combat spacecraft. At the same time, the deceleration thrust has been increased to maximum! (End of chapter)
