Chapter 383 The So-Called Landing Battle

In this situation where the artificial intelligence consciousness body does not land, the three fleets' approach is to pull apart, and not to fight anyway.

The process of chasing lasts a long time, especially at lower levels of civilization.

A U-turn, acceleration and deceleration would take more than half an hour, so the fleets of both sides spent several days in the back and forth.

At this moment, the large fleet of artificial intelligence consciousness turned around and chased the first fleet where Yue Yuan was located, but as before, there was no major conflict. When it was closest, it was only thirty-four light seconds. Therefore, the only way to engage in combat is to shoot laser energy cannons from a distance.

The electromagnetic railgun and positron cannon are even more useless. The former is because the distance is too far and it is impossible to hit. The latter is because of the existence of a magnetic field shield. If it hits, it will be deflected by the magnetic field.

This situation lasted for six days. Finally, the artificial intelligence fleet finally became impatient and began to repeat its old tricks. It handed over its own fleet to the AI ​​written by it to control, there were about 10,000 warships.

However, the artificial intelligence consciousness also seems to know that the combat effectiveness of this kind of fleet controlled by ordinary AI is not high, so this separated squadron is not rushing to any of the first, second, and third fleets, but at The starry sky turned a corner and headed towards the second planet of the red dwarf star.

The remaining large forces continued to fight against the three coalition fleets.

Seeing the actions of the artificial intelligence consciousness, Yue Yuan couldn't help but nodded and murmured: "Not bad, this artificial intelligence doesn't look too stupid. He knew that the separated fleet was not effective in combat, so he sent them to carry out the landing operation. ”

Although the voice was small, it was heard by the first mate on the side, so the first mate said: "Shuai Yue, it seems that the fuel of the artificial intelligence fleet cannot be sustained for long, otherwise it will not separate the squadron to the second planet. We Do you want to go over and stop it from launching a landing operation?"

"No, it's impossible for the Second Planet to really defend against its attack. And haven't you discovered that the squadron didn't all swarm into the Second Planet's low-Earth orbit, but was divided into three? Echelon, it seems that the echelon on the innermost track is required to land.

Our second planetary defense line was originally designed to consume them. It is now divided into squadrons for landing. It is not a bad thing. As long as the anti-cannons on the second planet can consume thousands of artificial intelligence warships, our chances of winning will be better. Big. "

"Then we just watch like this?" The first officer was a little anxious. He felt that if he went to a fleet to interfere with the artificial intelligence's landing combat echelon, he would definitely achieve great results.

"Of course not. Aren't we fighting with the artificial intelligence fleet?" Yue Yuan said with a smile: "And it's not us who are anxious. After a while, the artificial intelligence fleet will find that this planet is more difficult to chew. Resource extraction and fuel supply are not If it can be done at the moment, then it will be urgent.”

Of course Yue Yuan didn't know how much fuel the artificial intelligence fleet had left, but it was definitely not as much as the coalition fleet. Moreover, one fleet from both sides was now chasing in space, and it could be said that they were constantly making acceleration, deceleration and various steering movements.

This kind of maneuver is not like a voyage across star systems. To put it simply, a voyage across star systems generally only requires one acceleration and one deceleration, plus some steering maneuvers. The main resource consumption is actually in various repairs and life support. Above, but the engine needs to be working all the time during combat, which consumes much more fuel than a long-distance voyage.

A battleship is not a planet. Even if it uses heavy nuclear fusion burning stones, the stones in the warehouse are limited. The reason is that the more fuel it contains, the heavier the battleship will be, making it harder to push it up.

Moreover, there is another point. The fuel of the second-level civilization battleship may only be heavy nuclear fusion fuel, and cold nuclear fusion fuel. That is the real big consumable, and this thing is not a natural substance like heavy nuclear fusion fuel. It requires industrial manufacturing.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the first fuel to be consumed is always the cold fusion fuel.

Once a warship runs out of cold fusion fuel, its acceleration, deceleration, speed changes, and other actions will become very slow, and it can be said to be a living target.

Time passed day by day, and while the coalition fleet and the artificial intelligence fleet were still fighting in space, the artificial intelligence squadron finally arrived in the orbit of the second planet.

Based on the demand for resources, as soon as this fleet controlled by the AI ​​program arrived in the planet's orbit, it assessed the planet according to its programmed procedures, and then it began landing operations.

Of the 10,000 warships, there are probably more than 4,000 warships in low-Earth orbit, and other warships are conducting simultaneous patrols in farther orbits.

Then, these more than 4,000 warships began to make their next move.

It's not realistic for warships to land directly.

Because the artificial intelligence battleship is originally a battleship of the Nair civilization, it is also a lake-class battleship. The length of the entire battleship reaches 3 kilometers, and the width and height are about 1 to 2 kilometers. Such a huge battleship can easily fall into the gravity of the planet when it directly lands on the planet. well, resulting in various accidents.

For example, the structure may break or deform due to the complex gravitational environment.

Of course, if you insist on landing, it is not impossible, but the battleship needs a more powerful structure, such as the human battleship and the new battleship built by the Nair people after they obtained the human No. 1 alloy material. These spaceships can all be used on planets with not too outrageous gravity. Log in directly.

But the AI ​​fleet can't do that, because their fleet is the old-fashioned warships of the Nair civilization, and its material technology is already at its limit to support such a huge warship structure.

In addition, the environment of this binary star system is harsh, and the intensity of the space magnetic field is not comparable to that of the general space environment. In such an environment, it is even more difficult for AI spacecraft to directly land warships.

Obviously, the AI ​​consciousness has calculated these parameters, so its fleet did not land directly after arriving in low-Earth orbit. Instead, it opened the battleship hatch and sent out some secondary warships and various types of spacecraft to land.

It was at this time that the Allied Forces Command discovered that the more than 4,000 warships were not real combat warships, but small spaceships and secondary warships with many other functions stuffed in their stomachs.

Think about it, although the AI ​​consciousness is an artificial intelligence, it cannot violate the laws of physics and directly use magic to absorb planetary resources, right? So its mining method still relies on the original mining technology of the Nair civilization.

Of course, its efficiency is much higher than that of the Nair civilization.

At this moment, more than 4,000 warships opened their belly hatches like giving birth, and then released one secondary warship after another, as well as various landing spacecraft.

The Lake-class warships are very large. After they no longer need life-support equipment and resources, the space available for use is even larger. Therefore, not long after more than 4,000 Lake-class warships used as semi-transport ships opened their belly hatches, tens of thousands of various landing spacecraft appeared in the low-Earth orbit.

They were shining silver, and after slightly adjusting their attitude in the low-Earth orbit, they began to lower their orbits, drawing beautiful arcs in space, and falling to the ground.

At the same time, the more than 4,000 warships that had released various landing spacecraft in their bellies also adjusted their attitudes in the low-Earth orbit, and then began to use their main guns to carry out orbital bombardment of the ground.

The mass of the second planet of this red dwarf star is much smaller than that of the earth. Its synchronous orbit altitude is only about 15,000 kilometers. At this altitude, the main guns of the Lake-class warships can directly bombard the ground.

Of course, the base guns on the ground can also hit the warships in orbit.

So when these more than 4,000 warships began to release landing ships, the battle between the ground and the air began.

One after another, electromagnetic rail guns were fired from the triple main guns of the Lake-class warships, and then, under the influence of the planetary gravity and the initial velocity of their own rail guns, they fell to the ground like rain.

The other two types of guns in the triple main guns also roared at the ground at this time. The laser energy cannon was like a flashlight in the dark night, shining down from the orbit, and the positron beams emitted by the positron cannon were also unwilling to be lonely and joined the ranks of attacking ground targets.

The various base guns on the ground were naturally not to be outdone. Under the guidance of detection radars and fire control radars, they launched the same attack on targets in orbit.

Positron cannons, laser energy weapons, and electromagnetic rail gun shells with rocket-assisted propulsion systems. The latter interspersed the interlaced light beams of the former, rushed directly into the sky, and rushed towards the target.

The electromagnetic rail gun targets those large targets, while the laser energy weapons and positron guns focus on the landing ships.

Because those landing ships do not have magnetic field shields, it is really appropriate for the positron guns to target them.

Looking at the situation of this battle, the judgment of the combat AI set by humans is still good, at least it knows how to treat the enemy differently.

Yes, the entire planetary ground defense system is not participated by intelligent life, so this landing operation and defense battle is essentially a battle between the AIs of both sides.

One is the combat AI program written by the artificial intelligence consciousness, and the other is the human combat AI program. So rather than saying that this is an offensive and defensive battle between the two sides, it is better to say that it is a contest between computer computing power and intelligent judgment.

If the artificial intelligence consciousness can copy itself, then the human combat AI is definitely not as smart as it, but the combat AI program it writes is not necessarily.

For a time, the weapons of both sides intertwined in the dark sky, and the light columns were crisscrossed. If someone could set up a God's perspective camera in space, the light columns flying in the battle between the two sides now really look a bit like Star Wars.
