Electromagnetic gun projectiles are uncontrollable. Once they leave the barrel, where they fly is completely left to fate. But the flame-type spaceship is different. As long as they have enough fuel, they can change their orbits under human control.
At this moment, they were under the control of people, going against the trajectory of target No. 4 and crashing into it head-on.
Because of the error, people are now unable to obtain the position, speed and direction of Target No. 4 too accurately. Because of this, Zhao Changxing wanted to invest all the flame-type spaceships to expand the coverage as much as possible.
At this moment, 106 electromagnetic guns were roaring. Thousands of projectiles fly towards the target at high speed. At this moment, more than 200 flame-type spaceships were moving forward crazily, trying to block the target's path like moths flying into the flame.
Time is passing bit by bit. Beads of sweat continued to drip from the foreheads of several committee members. Zhao Changxing looked solemn and just looked at the monitoring screen, silently.
Every minute and every second that passes may mean that human civilization is one minute closer to annihilation. Whether this outcome can be changed depends on whether the interception can be completed within the next ten minutes or so.
A violent burst of flames spurted out from the bottom of a straw hat-shaped flame-shaped spacecraft, propelling it to move at high speed and rapidly change its trajectory.
It was pitch black in the distance, and nothing could be seen except the stars in the sky. The universe is so quiet that there are no signs of change.
At this moment, a ball of fire passed by less than ten meters away from the spacecraft at a speed that was so fast that it could not even leave an afterimage in people's eyes.
The high-speed camera only captured a few frames.
The spacecraft's interception mission failed.
A dozen tiny projectiles with a mass of only 0.5 grams flew from a distance, and several of them bombarded the flame-shaped spacecraft at a speed of six kilometers per second, and the next moment it exploded into a ball of fire. The remaining projectiles flew right through the missile's tail flame.
Under the high temperature of the tail flame, they melted instantly. At the same time, due to additional impacts, their flight directions have also changed, making their subsequent trajectories even more unpredictable.
Another straw hat-shaped spaceship passed by less than ten meters away from the missile. Dozens more projectiles flew past the missile's forward trajectory, but it wasn't until they flew away that the missile came to this place...
I don’t know how many straw hat-shaped spaceships there are, and I don’t know how many projectiles were fortunately avoided by this missile. It passed through five levels and killed six generals, like a ferocious wild beast, unstoppable.
But another small straw hat-shaped spaceship appeared in front of it.
At such a high speed, it had no time to adjust its direction, and this flame-shaped spacecraft also had no time to adjust its direction.
So, in just a few milliseconds, the two collided with each other.
At this moment, the relative speed of the two is as high as almost 30 kilometers per second. At such a high speed, the energy emitted by the impact of even a small stone is far greater than that of a grenade. However, the mass of the flame-type spacecraft is as high as one hundred tons, and the mass of this missile is even as high as one thousand tons.
The damage-to-destroy device is triggered in less than 10 microseconds as soon as the missile shell deforms. In the missile warhead, the chemical explosive used as a trigger bomb instantly started a chain reaction of nuclear fissile materials, and the atomic bomb detonated immediately. Similarly, at the moment the atomic bomb is detonated, pressure from all directions instantly squeezes the fusion material to the core.
The explosive energy of an atomic bomb gives it the pressure and temperature to undergo fusion. So the next moment, it exploded.
It emits light even brighter than the sun. In this moment, the entire dark night sky was illuminated.
Through the high-speed camera equipped on the flame-shaped spacecraft, people saw the scene when the explosion occurred. But it was only seen for a moment. The next moment, these spacecraft were destroyed by the impact of the explosion energy.
Here, there is only less than 20,000 kilometers away from Star Sedna.
At this moment, snowflakes appeared on the display screen in front of Zhao Changxing. There was noise in the communication channel. Sparks jumped out of some precision chips and burned down.
Zhao Changxing's brows relaxed. The committee members looked at each other, trembling, and suddenly they all burst into tears.
At this moment, they were extremely happy. Fortunately, civilization finally escaped this disaster. Fortunately, Zhao Changxing was wise enough to make the right judgment. Fortunately, Zhao Changxing was determined enough to promote war preparations when everyone thought it was unnecessary. progress of the matter.
Without those deep space monitoring radars and electromagnetic guns, people might not know what happened until they died, or they might just watch the missiles hit the planet, but they could do nothing.
At this moment, everyone was sincerely convinced of Zhao Changxing.
"Leader, you, you saved our civilization..."
Zhao Changxing patted his shoulder and said nothing.
It wasn't until the human government disclosed the entire process of this incident that the originally panicked people gradually calmed down. At this moment, everyone felt the chill coming from deep inside.
"It turns out that we are really so naive that we can have wild whims and wishful thinking that we can coexist peacefully..."
"Fortunately there is a leader here, otherwise, we would have died long ago..."
In the conference room, Zhao Changxing, officials from various departments of the human government, and members of the war committee were all present.
At this moment, people have recovered from the previous panic and chaos.
"You haven't experienced what happened before. If you behave like that, I don't blame you. But in the future... if you still behave unqualified like this, don't blame me for removing you."
"yes."
Zhao Changxing knocked on the table lightly: "There will be many, many more such things in the future. As the saying goes, one learns from every experience. After this meeting, you will sum up the experience and lessons, and think about what kind of mentality and attitude you should adopt." Means, what kind of process should be developed to deal with this kind of thing."
"yes."
Fortunately, you still have opportunities and time to grow...
Zhao Changxing looked at the officials and sighed secretly in his heart. Immediately, he said seriously again: "Okay, this meeting has officially begun. Now, there are intelligent life forms on the planet 221SN1 that are hostile to us, and have actually launched an attack on us, and have even almost caused insurmountable damage to us. Let’s make up for the damage. Let’s talk about how to deal with this incident later.”
…
During this meeting, people discussed a lot. But in the final analysis, it can be summed up into these few points.
1. Strengthen defense.
This incident really left people with lingering fears. Frankly speaking, it was a matter of luck that the last missile was intercepted in the end. And people can't be so lucky every time. Continuing to improve defense capabilities is the way to go.
Based on this, in the future, people will build more deep space surveillance radars, build more electromagnetic guns, and improve their performance as much as possible.
Second, try your best to increase the population.
Population is the basis of everything. Without enough population, nothing can be done. The construction of the "roller" base must be accelerated.
The third is to comprehensively improve the level of military construction. Research on war theory must get on the right track, and special research institutions must be established to systematically study how interstellar war should be conducted.
And fourth, launch a cleanup operation.
Based on various clues, people judged that there may be a large number of enemy spy satellites in the starry sky around Sedna. They are small in size and highly concealed, so you must find them all and destroy them one by one.
As for the technological level of the unknown intelligent civilization living on the planet 221SN1 - which has now been named "Deep Space Civilization", and the planet 221SN1 is also named "Deep Space Star" - based on existing data, such as People have also made preliminary judgments about the attack form, such as the speed of interstellar missiles.
It is obvious that in this attack, the Deep Space Civilization was launched with the purpose of completing all its efforts in one battle, annihilating human civilization in one fell swoop, and getting rid of this hidden danger. This means that they are unlikely to hold back on their choice of offensive methods. In other words, this kind of attack method of interstellar missiles equipped with large-yield hydrogen bombs is their most powerful attack method at the current stage.
It's just a pity that people can't capture a missile to study it on the spot. In this case, the grasp of the other party's information will be clearer.
But it doesn't matter, a lot of things can already be inferred from the existing data.
In its heyday, deep space civilization was undoubtedly capable of interstellar navigation. At this stage, only this offensive method can be adopted, which means that deep space civilization must be in the initial stage of restoring civilization. From this, we can infer their planetary defense modes, and the results are nothing more than the ones people have mastered at the moment.
From this, the last issue arises.
"We must retaliate." Zhao Changxing made the final decision on this matter: "The reason for retaliation is not just to ease social sentiment and boost confidence in civilization. More importantly, deep space civilization is also in the process of recovery. stage of civilization, and the potential of their civilization is deeper than our human civilization. We must eliminate them in the primary stage of their restoration of civilization. Even if there is no way to eliminate them, we must find ways to interrupt and slow them down. The progress of restoring civilization. Otherwise, time will drag on, and in the end, we will have no hope at all."
Addressing the threat at this stage is the only chance for human civilization.
"How to effectively carry out retaliation, you have to come up with a charter."
Zhao Changxing looked at the officials and committee members again.
Under Zhao Changxing's gaze, everyone stood up at the same time.
"yes!"
