"Actually, the answer lies with the fleet versus the fleet. Your firearms can only hold a few dozen rounds of ammunition due to space reasons. But if it is loaded with a tank, it can be equivalent to a mobile ammunition depot. But the tank space is available, but The positioning of the tank allows it to hold not only bullets, but also artillery shells. When it comes to firearms, the number of artillery shells in a tank may not be as many as the bullets in your guns. When it comes to missile bases, if there are Fully loaded with bullets and artillery shells, that is simply unlimited ammunition, but the existence and positioning of the missile base determines that it uses larger missiles."
Sima Tianzhi pushed up his glasses that had slipped slightly because he raised his head, "Your statement still cannot explain my problem."
Kumobisi sighed, "Don't just think about attack, but also think about defense. Whether it's the great sword of the third civilization or the individual weapons in your hands, they are quite effective against things outside. But the positioning of the starship , determines that it cannot be covered with big swords, nor can it be equipped with individual weapons with a range of only a few kilometers. The worst is that it can deal with small aircraft. This leaves enough space to install thousands of individual weapons. , the actual installation can only be dozens of small anti-ship defense weapons. When encountering high numbers and small-sized enemies, it seems a little inadequate. In fact, in the battle of the universe, the battle is based on quantity versus quality. There are not many, but there are not many things that can fly over long distances independently and maintain a high number. It’s just that our first civilization is a little unlucky. This space has a height limit and cannot distance itself, and the enemy is exactly the same size. So many. It resulted in a terrible situation where a group of heavily armed soldiers had to fight countless poisonous mosquitoes with murderous weapons in their hands."
In order not to be discovered, the vehicle did not fly very fast, but in the time just now, it had flown at least several kilometers. But the scene in front of him was still an endless sea of monsters.
Qiu Yu's fingers tapped quickly on the invisible armrest, "The explanation is quite clear. We have a rough understanding of the current situation of the first civilization. So what about the third and fourth civilizations?"
"We are now continuing to test the position of the leader of the other party's civilization. Our current strategy is to obtain cores as the way to win. The specific rules are..."
Although they had already heard about the method of obtaining cores from the Bee Man, out of caution, neither Qiu Yu nor Su Hao nor Sima Tianzhi interrupted, and quietly listened to the rules until the end.
"There are still nine positions given. It is impossible to determine which one the leader of the opponent's civilization is actually in. Here is a special explanation. The opponent's civilization is a typical fanatical fighting civilization. God knows how such a civilization can become a defensive civilization. ’s... I’m going too far. In short, any civilization of this type usually determines who is the leader based on personal strength. But now this civilization fights by controlling combat creatures, so the strength of Weak, a large part of it depends on the number of creatures controlled and the control technology..."
"So what?" Sima Tianzhi didn't like this way of explaining simple questions like a child.
"Do you know how many people there are in the other civilization?" Kumobisi quickly gave the answer without waiting for others to speak, "There are less than a hundred people. And when fighting the third and fourth civilizations, they were also Killed some. In other words, there are at most dozens of them now."
Qian Xiao was still nodding his head just now, but suddenly as if he thought of something, he said in a trembling voice, "You talk about control. Is it possible that these monsters are so smart when they fight because the other side's civilized people are controlling them from behind?"
Kumobisi nodded, making the equipment on her body jingle, "According to the third civilization, that's it."
"You said again, there are only a few dozen of them!"
Kumobisi continued to nod.
"Are they computers or super schizophrenic? One person can accurately control tens of thousands of monsters?" Qian Xiao trembled even more.
"No, they are not that powerful yet. They can only control dozens to hundreds at a time."
"But outside..."
"Most of the monsters outside only act according to instinct before being controlled, and do not have the ability to use tactics."
Qian Xiao moved his head with his hands and nodded, "Then we are really unlucky. As soon as we appeared, we encountered a monster controlled by the other party."
Qiu Yu said, "No, it should have been after we appeared that the other side's civilized people controlled the monsters to attack us."
"Huh?" Qian Xiao looked at Qiu Yu with a confused look.
Kummerbis showed considerable interest, "I was just thinking about how the following explanation is a bit complicated. How should I explain it so that you can understand it. Now that you know it, it's up to you to explain it."
"Indeed, it would be quite a headache for me to not only explain the current situation to us as clearly as possible, but also find a way to reveal the minimum knowledge of civilization." Qiu Yu smiled and looked at her face and became extremely embarrassed. Kummerbis continued, "Actually, you don't have to understand the principle. You just need to understand the current situation and you can solve the problem by giving similar examples."
Qian Xiao looked at Qiu Yu with twinkling little eyes, "Actually, I am a truth partisan, and I prefer to listen to principles."
Qiu Yu chuckled and said, "Examples are not only easier to understand, but they are also more useful than knowing the principles."
Hearing that Qiu Yu didn't want to force Kummerbisi to accept his words, Qian Xiao immediately cooperated, "Oh... let's listen first."
"Take a real-time strategy game as an example. The monsters outside are already built soldier units, with only basic attack or non-attack AI. The other civilized people are the players sitting in front of the computer. The soldiers are included. Monitoring range. As soon as an enemy appears, you will be prompted, and then you can quickly drag the mouse to the battle location and select the soldiers to fight."
"easy to understand."
Qian Xiao gave Qiu Yu a thumbs up, but his eyes looked at Kummerbis, whose expression was even more unnatural than before. The latter immediately used words to deflect his embarrassment.
"The purpose of the current battle is twofold. The first is to try to find out the true location of the leader of the other party's civilization. However, the other party is hiding underground. Every time we want to attack, we have to pay a huge price. This price is ours. I dare not bear it, so for now I can only test the strength of the attack on the ground, but the chance of finding the leader of the other party's civilization at this level is really slim. The second point is that based on the powerful computer of the first civilization, Cooperate with the opponent's habits, frequency and characteristics of controlling combat creatures to analyze the location of the leader of the civilization."
Qiuyu continued to use examples to translate Kummerbisi's complicated statement, "What he means is that every player has his own distinctive characteristics when playing the game. As long as it depends on who controls the most soldiers and the skill of playing. It is best to judge who is the leader of the team. Then from the strength shown in the battle, you can further determine whether the leader of the team prefers to rescue clockwise or counterattack when you find that several places are being attacked at the same time during the game. The direction of time. Do you do it in order, or jump around. Do you have fixed habits, or do you like to play randomly... In general, if you are lucky enough, you can determine a center point based on the above information."
Kumobisi could no longer suppress her surprise, and stared at Qiu Yu for a long time before speaking out with difficulty, "You are not a civilization of the spiritual technology department, can you detect my thinking?"
Qian Xiao said disdainfully, "You only need to say a few things, and the master can complete it for you with your eyes closed."
Kummerbis found that her flexible brain had become a little difficult to use. It took her several seconds to figure out what the relationship between being able to analyze the entire incident with just a few things and thinking with her eyes closed was at all. It doesn't matter.
"But this method still relies too much on the other party to take the initiative to reveal flaws. What if the leader of the other party intends to change his habits, or does not take action at all?"
Although this method sounds magical, in Su Hao's opinion, it is actually a bit unreliable.
"Even if you intentionally change your habits, completely disordered changes are impossible. No matter how deliberate you are, what you see as disorder is actually just making the cycle of change longer. Living things are still used to doing things regularly. So as soon as the mind is relaxed, habits will appear spontaneously and subconsciously. With the support of the computer of the first civilization, as long as the leader of the other party keeps taking action, he will definitely be discovered."
"As for what you said about not taking action, that is absolutely impossible. Even though we are at a disadvantage in terms of quantity, we are far from being comparable in terms of quality. The reason why we cannot defeat the nine locations we are attacking now is Because of the opponent's excellent command of combat creatures. If their command stops for a moment, those creatures based on instinct alone will never be able to block the attack of the third and fourth civilizations. Near these nine points, relying on our stealth technology There is a lot of reserve troops hidden. It can be used as a resting place to maintain uninterrupted attacks, and it can also be used to release all the troops to press when necessary."
"I would like to add here that although only one of the nine points is the real location of the leader of the other party's civilization, according to the people on our side who were arranged as false targets, each point is a real civilized individual. Change In other words, in every target point, there are people from the other side's civilization. In order to prevent themselves from dying, these people who are regarded as false targets will definitely protect themselves desperately, and even turn to others when they are in poor condition. Asking for help. So as long as we continue to attack these target points, we can ensure that at least nine of the opponent's people are always in a state of combat."
"In addition, in addition to the current nine fixed attack points, we have also arranged forty attack teams. The dozen or so people from the third civilization you just met are one of them."
Kummerbis made some quick operations on the chair, and a light screen showing the same content appeared on the side of everyone's chair.
It looks like a satellite map taken from a high altitude, but unlike a simple map, there are many areas marked in red on the screen.
Seeing that everyone was paying attention to the light screen, Kummerbisi continued, "These attack teams are not specifically designed to save you. Did you see those red markers? The other civilization is attacking a large number of creatures. In terms of control, we found neither electronic signals nor powerful mental fluctuations, so we finally concluded that chemical signals were used. At the same time, proving this point, there are also some things discovered by the first civilization after looking into the underground. Giant creature.”
Kummerbisi's hand tapped continuously on a red area of the light screen, and what appeared from a new pop-up window was a creature that, even though it looked quite blurry, still reminded people of the queen ant for the first time.
"After confirmation by the third civilization, these combat creatures on the ground are created by this thing. In your example, this thing is a computer. The other civilization controls other combat creatures through it."
Kummerbisi closed the window showing the close-up of the queen ant creature, and slowly moved her finger from the void to the light screen, as if dragging something. The moment his finger touched the light screen, a large amount of data flashed densely on the screen. It took a few seconds for the data to gradually disappear and turn into curved lines that divided the entire map into many small pieces. In each divided area, there is a red area marked with a queen-like creature.
"Probably because of the controlled number or the coverage limit of chemical signals. These queen ants are the center for controlling organisms within a certain range. So although they can no longer continue to create combat organisms, as long as they are killed, the opponent's civilization can be eliminated Control of the combat creatures within the corresponding range. The purpose of these forty teams is to attack the location of the ant queens everywhere. On the one hand, random attack points are used to collect more relevant data about the leaders of the other party's civilization; on the other hand, The opponent must send more people to control the battle and prevent the queen ant from being killed by us. Here, in addition to the moving and resting teams, there are at least twenty teams attacking at the same time. This can at least contain the opponent Twenty people.”
"In addition to the ground, there is a group of small bugs that eat everything a few meters above our heads. Although they are also combat creatures created by them, these bugs only know how to simply eat or move. Even if the group of things on the ground If we encounter them, they will also be eaten as food. So those little bugs can only serve as restrictions on our movement and cannot launch effective attacks."
Sima Tianzhi narrowed the focus of his eyes slightly, and he could indeed vaguely see some small black dots flying not far above his head. "We do know that those little bugs are very powerful. I'm afraid the opponent only needs to give up some of the monsters on the ground." If you attack directly with bugs, the exposed third and fourth civilizations will be killed in an instant, right?"
"Our allies are not as fragile as you think. In fact, in order to prevent these bugs from being wiped out by our side, the other civilization must use at least five to ten more people to prevent the bugs from getting together."
"From the perspective of battlefield positioning, these little bugs are assault troops with strong attack power. Only a small amount can pose a fatal threat. If they are in groups, they can easily destroy anything. But with the powerful attack power, What is inversely proportional is their fragile defense. As long as they are prepared, our third and fourth civilizations can easily wipe out a large area."
"If the number can be continuously replenished, these little bugs will be more terrifying than anything we have ever seen, but fortunately, one less one will die now. The other party can only try to disperse them as much as possible to prevent them from being killed efficiently by us. Die. After all, as long as these bugs exist, we will not be able to gain air superiority, and it is almost an impossible task for us to eliminate them one by one."
"So in general, the significance of these bugs to the other side's civilization is to limit our air superiority and use it to carry out sneak attacks from time to time - although these bugs seem to have huge network delays to control and cannot be used easily. And they What it means to us is that we can once again contain the opponent's five to ten people."
"Finally, let's talk about the part about facing the first civilization in the sky."
"Even if a large amount of energy is used to support the electromagnetic field, and the electromagnetic field itself has a huge impact on the fleet of the first civilization. But it is still an interstellar battleship. If it is not contained, as long as the main gun attacks dozens of times, regardless of the opponent No matter how deep you hide, you will be killed. Therefore, the opposing civilization must use high-altitude troops that cannot be replenished to continuously attack the first civilization with minimal consumption. And the first civilization currently has sixty-two starships. The distance is also relatively far, and if the opponent wants to fight with the best efficiency, it needs the control of at least 62 people."
"Not long ago, there was a problem with the opponent's control. The high-altitude creatures attacking the First Starship gathered to a certain extent. As a result, a starship fired its main gun and killed many of them. Although the starship was sunk as a result , but it was the opponent who suffered the greater loss. After that shot, their attack intensity was reduced by 5%. So even though the fighting in the sky is still busy, our first civilization is not willing to suffer too much losses. , the other side's civilization must retain the necessary troops for containment. Otherwise, if there is a decisive battle and they become the losing party, they will be in an absolute position facing the interstellar fleet that can continuously use its main guns to attack because there is no threat. Disadvantage. So the battle in the sky will probably be quite protracted."
Qiu Yu tilted his head and looked at the sea of monsters, "In other words, the opponent currently does not have as many flying units as we think, so they can only choose between killing the first civilization's fleet and holding it back. The latter. As the forces of both sides in the sky are equal, the key to winning or losing the battle lies on the ground. For now, they have a considerable advantage in ground forces, but the initiative seems to be on our side. Since we can By relying on non-stop fighting to determine the actual location of the opponent's civilization leader, you can also delay time until there are fewer and fewer target locations prompted, and then launch a strong attack with a quality advantage."
Just when Kumobis was about to add something, Qiu Yu continued to say what he wanted to say, "Another point is that there are currently very few people in the other civilization. If there are really only a few dozen people left. In order to There won't be unbearable losses in any link. I'm afraid each of them won't even have time to close their eyes and rest. Maybe as long as it is delayed long enough, fatigue alone will defeat them..."
