It was an extremely large battleship, almost as big as an asteroid-class battleship, and its tonnage reached an astonishing 7 tons.

In the final actual combat test, one of its warships faced 10 old Stardust-class warships, and then... was destroyed.

That's right, it was made using the most advanced third-level civilization technology and integrated the four iconic technologies of the third-level civilization. The latest battleship is comparable in size to an asteroid-class battleship. As a result, it was surrounded by only 10 old Stardust-class battleships. Below, it was destroyed.

But the senior military officials watching this scene were still full of excitement and applauded enthusiastically.

"It is just a test model, but it can show such excellent performance and has a certain degree of practical significance. It is worthy of being a battleship of the third level civilization..."

"Although this warship has such poor maneuverability, it is because it is too heavy. According to the plan, its total mass should not exceed 1000 tons. Once it is miniaturized, how powerful will its thrust be."

"The development prospects are really broad and exciting..."

The amazing prospects shown by this battleship made everyone full of expectations. Many scientists are working day and night, and under the unified coordination of Han Yang, they are working hard to achieve the goal of actual combat as soon as possible.

However, no breakthrough has been made in battleships yet. In other areas, non-combat spacecraft such as heavy cargo spacecraft, mining ships, civilian ships, and scientific research ships have made a series of breakthroughs in advance.

In particular, the breakthroughs achieved by super-heavy interstellar transport spacecraft such as space carriers are the most amazing.

The total mass of an aerospace carrier when fully loaded can reach hundreds of millions of tons. Compared with its huge size, it doesn't matter whether the total mass of the propeller, protium fusion base, and energy shield module is 10,000 tons or 70,000 tons.

These technologies were first applied to it.

So Han Yang discovered that after applying these technologies, the time for the space carrier to conduct an interstellar voyage was not only reduced, but the cost was also instantly reduced to only about 30/ of the previous level.

To transport one kilogram of matter from this star system to that star system, the original shipping cost was 30 human coins, but now it only costs one dollar.

This is because the technology is far from mature. Once the technology matures, through model calculations, Han Yang found that the cost can even be reduced to one percent of the previous price! Even lower is not impossible!

Han Yang immediately realized the broad prospects contained in this.

In the past, except for some rare minerals, interstellar mining was simply not feasible.

Shipping costs are too high.

But now, the transportation cost has been greatly reduced, and it is possible to collect ordinary minerals such as gold, silver, copper and iron from another star system and transport them to the solar system, as long as the distance is not more than ten light years, there is still profit.

The cost of local collection in the solar system is of course lower, but some minerals in the solar system are scarce and difficult to collect. Second, the solar system is, after all, the homeland of mankind and is subject to more restrictions.

For example, on Earth, mining is obviously prohibited.

At the same time, with the reduction of transportation costs, large-scale interstellar trade between different civilizations has become feasible.

The feasibility of large-scale interstellar trade means that it is possible to integrate different civilizations, distribute industries, and conduct overall production with higher efficiency.

For example, right now, Han Yang can put some low-end industries into the other three civilizations of the Sun Alliance, such as agriculture, animal husbandry, aquaculture, papermaking, toys, food, textiles, primary processing, etc.

Human civilization only engages in some high-tech industries. While obtaining the most profits, it can also further liberate human scientific research capabilities and focus more energy on scientific and technological development.

At the same time, large-scale interstellar migration is also feasible.

Han Yang had already known before that the total population of a civilization depends on the level of civilization's technology.

Then it is obvious that the third-level civilization has a higher population limit than the second-level civilization.

But a single star system has a limited population carrying capacity. For example, the current solar system has a total population of nearly 100 billion, and all major planets are overcrowded. Especially the earth as the core, every inch of land is precious.

If the population increases again, even if the social management capabilities can keep up, there will not be that many planets to support the population.

Immigrate to other star systems? The transportation cost is so high and the transportation is inconvenient, it is simply not feasible.

At this moment, interstellar large-scale transportation technology has achieved breakthroughs, time has been shortened and costs have plummeted, and interstellar system immigration has immediately become a perfect solution.

"Large-scale immigration to surrounding galaxies should be put on the agenda."

Han Yang thought secretly: "In the early stage, we should mainly focus on the surrounding areas within ten light years. Well, Barnard's Star, Wolf 359, Lalande 21185, Weiss 1541-2250, Ross 154, these five stars are surrounded by There are planets that exist and have high development potential, so they can be the first targets." "With the social management capabilities that the technology of level three civilizations can provide, the upper limit of the population should be between 4000 billion and 6000 billion. These five stars are just The first batch of targets, in the future, stars within 20 light-years around the solar system will also be included in the immigration targets."

No matter how far the star is, Han Yang will not plan to immigrate on a large scale. After all, even if medium-free propulsion technology is used, the space carrier can reach an economic speed of up to 82% of the speed of light. If the distance is too far, it will lose economy.

There are a total of 20 star systems within 94 light-years around the sun, with a total of 130 stars or white dwarfs.

Among them, there are approximately 30 star systems with the potential for large-scale immigration.

In the future, large-scale human cities will appear in these star systems.

After diverging his thoughts for a while, Han Yang gathered his thoughts and once again considered the integration of the Sun Alliance and industrial distribution.

The vast prospects and huge benefits contained in this made Han Yang have to pay attention.

Although it is not yet time to actually implement it, some forward-looking research can already be put on the agenda.

Han Yang specifically found the Institute of Social Research and assigned tasks to the researchers to study the specific methods and prospects of alliance integration and industrial distribution.

In addition, another thing worth mentioning is that with the mastery of the unified force, there have been breakthroughs in research on quantum computers, achieving quantum advantages in more fields. After stagnating for a long time, Han Yang finally carried out a large-scale technological upgrade and once again achieved a hundred times the computing power of before.

This is the dividend brought by major technological breakthroughs. In the future, unless there is another major breakthrough, such as being promoted to a fourth-level civilization, it may not be possible to have this level of computing power increase at other times. At most, it will be an increase of 20% or 30%. The class is improved bit by bit.

Time passes slowly. One day, the Academy of Human Sciences and the Military Research Institute teamed up to finally miniaturize the four iconic technologies and stuff them into the Stardust-class battleship.

In the actual combat test, this Stardust-class battleship lived up to expectations and achieved an astonishing record of one to six hundred.

A new warship destroyed six hundred old warships, but in the end it took the initiative to leave because it ran out of energy!

In space, electromagnetic cannon projectiles and laser beams are rampant, but they are all unable to break through the energy shield's defense. On the other hand, if the energy cannon of the new warship hits, no matter how thick the armor is, it will all penetrate!

This result shocked all senior military officials.

They knew that the new warships were powerful, but they didn't expect them to be so powerful.

At this moment, the so-called second-level battleships' tactics of defeating the weak and the strong and defeating the third-level battleships that were studied by military research institutes in the past seemed so ridiculous.

Only by truly mastering the technology of the third-level civilization can we truly know how powerful it is.

This is simply not something that second-level battleships can fight against.

"But... the third-level battleship is good, but it consumes too much computing power. One battleship can compare with the previous twenty or thirty.

Fortunately, my computing power has increased by another 100 times. In total, the number of warships that can be controlled simultaneously can still be increased by four or five times, reaching about 30.

Including the total of about 20 warships that the warriors can control, the total combat power of human civilization at this moment is as high as 50 warships! I'm afraid that even if the third-level civilization develops to the top, it will only be this number, right? What's more, I still have unparalleled war potential! "

At this moment, even if a veteran third-level civilization comes, Han Yang is confident to fight with him.

With the development of civilization to this point, Han Yang realized that the time was finally ripe to integrate the Sun Alliance.

Experts from the Academy of Social Sciences were invited to attend the meeting of the ruling committee. During the meeting, the dean solemnly made suggestions.

"We recommend that we provide scientific and technological assistance to the Yuanshan Civilization, Motan Civilization, and Fix Civilization to upgrade their civilization to the third level.

After that, integrate the Sun Alliance and completely incorporate it into our human power territory. The development of our civilization will have stronger impetus.

Regardless of military, technology, or economy, we will truly take off. "

"In order to be promoted to a third-level civilization and to master the theory of unified force, our civilization has certainly made great efforts. We have even invested about 3% of the total wealth of the civilization in scientific and technological research and development for hundreds of years. Countless scientists have worked day and night. Only then did it finally get completed.

Now supporting it for free to the other three civilizations seems like a disadvantage, but the benefits contained in it are unimaginable.

We need to change our past thinking and change the perception that 'the three major civilizations belong to external civilizations'. We must realize that these three civilizations actually belong to us humans. They are the wealth of us humans, and their territory is our territory.

They just bear the name of an independent civilization. In fact, everything from spirit to body belongs to us humans!

Under this situation, improving their strength is to improve our own strength!

At the same time, we don’t need to worry at all that these three civilizations will one day escape our control. "(End of chapter)
