Chapter 324 Pre-war upgrade

Of course, compared with the Golden Ring of Duke Yadan, the two main fleets of Shenwu, there is still a little gap in combat power. After all, the main fleets are all new types of warships. And 45% of the garrison navy of the Megar star system are old models. This is the inland of Mona, and there are no major enemies like the Charles Federation. As for the Garcia Resistance Army, there are nearly a thousand warships. To cooperate with the space-based defense platform, as long as they dare to come, they will not think of going back.

The full-fledged flying dragon and corrupter of a population of 1,000 not only means that it will cost all the gas savings, but also must slaughter all the original combat units of the Zerg base, which will cause too much loss. Moreover, even if he can pull some damaged units out of the system space to repair, fight the war of attrition through soft and hard foam, and eventually win this war, it is probably a tragic victory.

Now that the Iron Crow joins, the improvement of its own combat power is definitely not as simple as 1+1. If you take the opportunity and use reasonable tactics, Hugh said that even if you eat the reinforcement fleet that Bruno rushed to the future is not impossible.

In order to minimize the loss of one's own units, it is the best choice to perform an Air Force technology upgrade. The "Covid Reactor" and "durable materials" in the Star Port affiliated Pendant Technology Laboratory can increase the energy and automatic cannons of the Iron Cannons, the endurance of fixed-point defense target aircraft, and the instantaneous automatic tracking in the engineering station can make the weapon systems of automatic cannons, missile towers, planetary fortresses and fixed-point defense target aircraft more accurate and have a longer range. Once these projects are upgraded, they will undoubtedly improve the Iron Cannons, missile towers, planetary fortresses and fixed-point defense target aircraft.

The "Cardhusse Reactor" and "Invisible Position", the former increases the energy of medical transport aircraft, and the latter gives the Banshee fighter stealth effect. It is of little significance to this space battle, so there is no need to rush to upgrade.

In addition, Tang Fang once again turned his attention to the spire of the Zerg base. In the previous upgrade, through the upgrade of the two items "Air creature attack lv1" and "Air creature carapace lv1", the Dragon and the Corruptor have obtained the ability to compete with small and medium frigates and destroyers. Since the Zerg base has climbed to 2 books, after upgrading "Air creature attack lv1" and "Air creature carapace lv1", the "Air creature attack" and "Air creature carapace" of lv2 have also been unlocked, but because the resource consumption is 50 times that of the game, he is not willing to upgrade.

Now, to achieve absolute air superiority, a secondary upgrade is necessary.

"I can't bear to let my child go to trap the wolf." He made a cruel decision and stomped his feet to add the "instantaneous automatic tracking" of the Human Race Engineering Station, the "Covid Reactor" in the Xinggang Technology Laboratory, the "durable material", the "Air Biological Attack LV2" in the Zerg spire, and the "Air Biological Carapace LV2" to the upgrade sequence.

In less than a minute, these upgrade projects were upgraded one after another, watching the resource values ​​of "12862905,52945". Tang Fang did not feel as painful as before. His visit to "Sigma" was not just to unlock the annexed building science and technology laboratory of Xinggang, but also to expand the amount of zero-element resources.

As one of the pillar enterprises of the ship manufacturing industry within the Duke, "Sigma" has rich zero-price resources, which may not be comparable to refineries and military energy supply stations, but it is definitely more than ordinary heavy factories. Since you have made up your mind to be a thief, you must lose everything you stole by the government!

Looking up and sweeping over the copy progress bar on the central display, it has reached "83%"

"Emma, ​​send the roadmap of this place to the energy warehouse."

Blinking time. A navigation picture pops up in the visual interface of the protective clothing in harsh environments.

"Commander. Navigation map has been delivered."

"I understand." Tang Fang nodded: "By the way, after upgrading the 'Air creature attack lv2' and 'Air creature carapace lv2', what changes have been made in the combat power of the flying dragon and the corrupter?"

After upgrading "Air creature attack lv1" and "Air creature carapace lv1", Emma analyzed based on the model calculation that the corrupter could match the 160-meter-long threshing shark-level destroyer, but she didn't know how terrifying the combat power of the dragon and the hatchling will be improved to.

"Commander, the 'Air Bio-Carrot lv2' gives the corrupters a stronger biological carrot, which is enough to resist the multi-connected 220mm caliber orbital cannon of the Tiger Shark-class destroyer. Even if it is like the double-connected 600mm caliber or a single-connected 900mm heavy orbital cannon, as long as it cannot hit the vital part, it is difficult to kill one blow."

"'Air creature attack lv2' increases the attack power of the corrupter by 30%. Combined with the 'Corruption' skill, it can cause fatal damage to the tiger shark-level destroyer."

The 220mm-caliber magnetic rail cannon that can withstand Tiger Shark-class destroyers, even the 600mm-caliber main cannon of the White Shark-class cruiser cannot kill with one blow. You should know that the threshing Shark-class destroyer is 160 meters long, while the longest of the Tiger Shark-class destroyer is about 250 meters. According to Emma's analysis, isn't it said that corrupters can hardly strike the Tiger Shark-class destroyer with a 220mm-caliber magnetic rail cannon.

In other words, after upgrading "Air creature attack lv2" and "Air creature carapace lv2", the combat power of the corrupter is almost invincible in the destroyer's level.

The corrupter of more than 40 meters, against the 200-meter-level tiger shark-level destroyer, gave Tang Fang a strange feeling of a little monster turning over Ultraman.

Immediately afterwards, Emma reported on the situation of the flying dragon. This Zerg unit, known for its maneuverability, is faster and more flexible than Viking fighter jets in extreme flight. Generally speaking, the standard weapons equipped with imperial ships cannot catch up with the flying dragon in terms of fire speed and rotation speed.

Even if the dragon's shell is not as thick as the Corruptor, if it fails to hit the target, everything will be in vain. You should know that in Star 2, a group of dragons are enough to shoot down the battle patrol, and they will definitely kill the master's rhythm. After upgrading the "Air Biological Attack LV2", the dragon's combat power is considered to be a complete transformation. Not to mention frigates, destroyers, facing behemoths such as cruisers and battleships, once groups of dragons are allowed to get close to find the weak points of armor and break into the ship, the consequences can be imagined.

With today's human ship weapon systems, there is a tendency to return to giant ship cannonism in primitive naval warfare. After all, with the advancement of disciplines related to Zero-Price and continuous innovation in armor materials, the heavy weapons that aircraft carrier-based aircraft can carry play a smaller and smaller role in space warfare.

On the other hand, due to the continuous war between various human countries, military technologies such as radar, guidance technology, near-defense interception systems, induction weapons, and force field applications have flourished, resulting in the overlordship of aircraft carrier-based aircraft. Therefore, heavy ships such as cruisers, combat patrols, battleships and other heavy ships gradually returned to the battlefield and gradually became the main combat units that were enough to compete with aircraft carriers.

However, compared with the human race in the era of StarCraft, human technology is now in a very embarrassing situation in the field of naval guns.

The older generation of ship-based weapons such as artillery, missiles, rapid-fire turrets are difficult to pose an effective threat to the target in a battlefield environment that is often hundreds or thousands of kilometers in the universe.

The large-mass projectiles shot from the electromagnetic rail gun are easily disturbed by various force fields that keep pace with the times and are not easy to hit the target. As a result, today's Star Wars either make the thunder and rainy drops loudly, and the formations of both sides are terrifying. But for a long time, they will be fired twice and then go home.

Or it is a real close melee, because only in this way can the ship's various weapons exert their maximum power, and will not be easily affected by combat distance, protective force field, and the interception system of the opponent's ships like in long-distance bombing. Such close melee is often fierce, which not only tests the command ability, ship performance, and force, but also has a certain component of luck.

Once the two fleets fall into this state of melee, they will evolve into a situation of endless death.

At a moment when the warp speed transition mechanism is not perfect, perform retreat at close range and sell the back to the enemy. It is tantamount to saying like an opponent: "The chrysanthemum has been washed, the pants have been taken off, e, on, baby!" So, as long as one of the melee enters the melee, unless one fleet collapses, the battle will continue. This is also one of the factors that cause the imperial aristocratic class to treat civilians and soldiers as livestock.

Of course, developing new types of bullets. Using bullet cores, shells, and shielding coatings of different materials can reduce the interference of the force field, but this is not the solution after all.

In fact, all countries are working hard to develop new weapons in order to improve the combat environment. Directed weapons such as lasers, plasma beams, and charged particle cannons have a rate of fire in a vacuum that is almost at the speed of light, and it is difficult to intervene with ordinary force fields.

As long as such weapons become the mainstream configuration of warships, this close-fitting hand-to-hand combat that is similar to the cold weapon era will be greatly reduced. The fleet only needs to set up a formation to shoot each other. Even if the ship is damaged, as long as it is not hit by the opponent's main artillery or encounters intensive shooting, it can retreat to the rear of the fleet and save the lives of the crew.

When the commander confirmed that his side was defeated by the opponent, the general trend was irreversible and there was plenty of time to start the warp engine and return to the rear front.

However, after all, humans have been in the process of entering cosmic civilization. Weapon systems such as lasers, plasmas, and antimatters have been developing rapidly, but there are still many unsolved problems in energy collection, miniaturization, conversion efficiency, heat dissipation, etc.

The warp engines that humans have copied from Ipsilon Technology have complex structure and large size, occupying a large part of the space in the ship, which undoubtedly compresses the placement space of the weapon system. Don’t think that larger ships can solve this problem. The larger the ship, the larger the warp field required for the transition, and the specifications of the warp engine will increase accordingly. Moreover, not a large warp engine must have a large warp field that can be used to drive super warships.

A behemoth like "Sigma" and Gemini Port, even if the warp engine is built as long as 10 kilometers, it is impossible for them to take them to play interstellar travel games.

Not to mention the preparation efficiency of antimatter weapons, cutting-edge equipment such as laser weapons and plasma weapons that have been equipped on space-based defense platforms and some warships also faces two important problems in application, conversion efficiency and energy supply.

Just as humans used fission energy at the beginning, laser weapons and plasma weapons systems had serious waste of resources and the conversion level was very low.

The roof is raining all night, and the boat is late and the wind is on the head. This sentence describes a person's unlucky misfortune, which is very appropriate to use here. Under the premise of low energy conversion rate, energy supply is also a big problem.

The warp engine is an essential component of a warship. It uses zero-element, is huge and expensive. Laser weapons and plasma weapons are not gadgets, but are also a big eater. The conventional ship design concept is the integration of energy supply.

Using zero-focus to power laser cannons and plasma cannons? What a joke, this is simply burning money. At a time when zero-focus refining technology in human countries generally fails to meet standards, the zero-focus source extracted from zero-focus ore is too exhausted to supply the interstellar navigation of the military fleet. I also want to get a share of this unpromising prodigal weapon system? The military's energy department will say, "Go to hell!"

If zero-element energy is not used, then there is only a request for nuclear energy. Fission energy has radiation and low production capacity. Fusion reactors are sufficient to provide powerful energy, are very clean and have a wide range of raw materials. Unfortunately, like warp engines, it is a counterfeit product and cannot be miniaturized in a short period of time.

If a warship is equipped with a warp engine, a fusion reactor, and a directed weapon such as laser gun sets and plasma gun sets, it is absolutely impossible to do if it is not as large as a few hundred meters.

A few hundred meters large... a ship over 400 meters is a battleship, a flagship-class. 700 meters is already a mainstream aircraft carrier. If the crew compartment, bridge, radar system, internal survival system, restaurant, storage warehouse and other battleship modules are added, how big is it? Even if such a warship is produced, it is a useless weapon that is tasteless and a pity to discard, and has no practical value.

To sum up, it will take dozens or hundreds of years to become the main body of the star warship. Of course, the direct guards of some princes, princes and princes are different. After all, compared to Zero Su, the lives of the great nobles are much more important. Therefore, even if this is an extremely expensive thing, some noble masters are still happy. Anyway, the money will eventually become a tax-free and miscellaneous tax on civilian slaves. Giving up others and benefiting oneself is always a business that is stable and profitable.

Back to the issue of Flying Dragon and Corruptor. In StarCraft, it is necessary to deal with maneuvering, flexible, and small Zerg units like Flying Dragon. The warship's near-defense gun caliber is not effective if it is small, and its caliber cannot keep up with the speed and firing rate. Aerospace fighters like "Thunder Wings" face the Flying Dragon who has upgraded the "Air Creature Carapace LV2" and has the "organization regeneration" skill, saying that the mantis arm is a compliment.

During the counterattack, the scene of 15 Viking fighters beating 48 "Thunder Wings" under the rain of missiles all over the sky is still vivid in my mind. Without an armory, Viking fighters that cannot upgrade their attack power and defense power have such power. What about the flying dragon that has been upgraded to 2 consecutive levels?

In StarCraft, the weapon used by human war cruisers to deal with flying dragons is a laser cannon group, and only they can pose a real threat to these hideous void hunters. But now, the Rector Navy does not have such powerful warships, and the "Thunder Wings" are far from being a match for flying dragons. As long as they are attacked by those space-based defense platforms that are so low, once the flying dragon group breaks into the enemy warship group, what kind of scene will be staged next? Just think about it and know it.

"Commander, the data copying work has been completed." At this time, Emma's voice came from his mind. Tang Fang looked up and saw that the copy progress bar of the central display had reached the end.

"Emma, ​​everything works as planned." After saying this, Tang Fang stood up and walked out of the room, his thoughts moved slightly, and his whole body entered a state of invisibility.

Meanwhile, the enthusiasts who were fighting the guards in the "Sigma" area A disappeared at the same time with ghost.

Some soldiers who survived by chance breathed a sigh of relief. Although they didn't know why the gods of death disappeared out of thin air, after all, their lives were saved. How did they come and how did they go? Such a problem would give those damn officials a headache.

At the same time, on the transportation route of the space station, a part of the defense robots drawn from Area S were transported to Area A, preparing to give the crazy woman who was killing wildly. However, the train had just arrived halfway, and "chi..." A sharp metal and iron clash came out.

Countless flying sparks flashed from the two magnetic tracks of the train, and guard soldiers and the on-site defense robot fell all over the ground in the carriage.

Fortunately, the train had excellent braking performance and excellent safety. The driver was only slightly injured. However, when he got up from under the operating table and looked out, the scene in front of him immediately frightened him.

Darkness, darkness, the only light source of the entire transportation line is the emergency lights on the walls on both sides.

"What happened? Who cut off the energy supply from the transportation line?" The driver looked confused.

What he didn't know was that it was not just transportation routes that were trapped in the dark, but all areas of the 40-kilometer-long "Sigma" space station were trapped in the darkness. From a distance, it looked like a space cemetery.

The combat command room of Area A was also dim, and the dim light of the emergency light shone on Covedale's old face. From a certain angle, it looked like a bloodthirsty beast with teeth bared.

When communication with the outside world is cut off, he can also use the most primitive method, using two legs, and using emergency intercom equipment. The closed-circuit monitoring network is paralyzed, and the movements in the quarantine area and the data room can be heard by people, and then the general combat policy is issued.

But that boy tm... he actually cut off the power system of the entire space station. He was also shut down the nuclear fission reactor that was used to provide energy for important departments such as the combat command room and equipment control center during special periods.
