Qiu Baiyu smiled and said: "Ten times is the number of civilizations in the Orion Arm star field. If you add other spiral arm star fields in the Milky Way, this number may be multiplied by a hundred or even a thousand."

There are millions of advanced civilizations in a star system of hundreds of billions of levels, which is vast compared to the entire galaxy.

After all, the energy and development of civilization has a speed limit. Rao is the "Emperor of Earth" in the two places of the Domler Clan and the Brugan Federation, and the galaxies under his jurisdiction are only a few thousand star systems.

Such a small amount of land is only one billionth of the size of the galaxy, which is about the same as the village boss who managed a village in the Earth era.

Their fight is equivalent to...two village bullies running rampant and forming gangs in several nearby places...

"The two shit-stirring civilizations are now busy with the affairs of the Yama civilization. When they finish their work, they will notice the value of this refrigerator...We should not be afraid of them by then."

"I heard that in addition to the Domler ethnic group and the Brugan Federation, there are three other civilizations that are permanent council members. Will these three civilizations notice us and ask us to hand over our technology?" Cen Xiangxiang said worriedly.

In fact, she has no idea how strong the Domler ethnic group and the Brugan Federation are.

However, the ability of these two civilizations to make troubles in the Miri Empire and the Yama civilization made her, and most people, feel that these two civilizations must be very powerful.

Just like the relatively small country of the Miri Empire in the past, when they messed up in other people's territory, the surrounding countries dared not speak out.

At present, Dongyuan has no concept of its own military strength. Because the development speed is too fast and the development time is too little, the high-level officials have always evaluated themselves based on the current combat power of the Yama civilization.

In fact, there is nothing good inside the Yama civilization. Their starting time is actually the same as that of human civilization. The difference is that they have received support from many surrounding civilizations, including the Domler ethnic group and the Brugan Federation, and obtained the interstellar civilization that encourages seedlings to grow. With the transformation, their strength in all aspects has grown rapidly.

But the result of this is that their top management has almost no control over their own things, and they have almost developed into a vassal of the Domler ethnic group and the Brugan Federation.

In fact, it is similar to a vassal, the only thing missing is an announcement to the outside world.

When these two civilizations are making troubles, the other three permanent directors have been watching silently and coldly.

It's understandable that Cen Xiangxiang is worried.

Qiu Baiyu smiled slightly: "There is no need to worry too much about this. The distance between the three civilizations is much farther than that of the Domle tribe and the Brugan Federation. By the time they arrive in their territory, it may be decades later."

There are a lot of orders for this thing, even if you work overtime, you can't keep up with the speed of placing orders.

But basically it is the civilizations near the human civilization and the great interstellar merchants who place the orders.

They may sell it to a civilization farther away, but they will certainly not spend a few years going to the permanent director civilizations to sell it to them.

There are so many interstellar things like stars, how difficult is it for a product of a remote newborn interstellar civilization to pass into the ears of those civilizations?

That is to say, the Domler ethnic group and the Brugan Federation had the opportunity to know the existence of this thing because they were doing trouble nearby.

"However, although you don't have to worry about those ascending civilizations, our neighbors should be jealous of this technology."

When Qiu Baiyu was talking, he looked at the battleship module being assembled in front of him and narrowed his eyes.

"We are not afraid of them coming, but we are afraid that they will not come to touch porcelain and find no excuse to open up a wider market."

"..."

Hmm... I plan to start tomorrow, a chapter of 4K...

Thanks to Honkai Final Herrscher for the hot strips, thank you~

Chapter 366 How dare you launch a battleship if it’s not cool? 4K

Qiu Baiyu's hunch was right.

This kind of "refrigerator" that can be used to store expensive war supplies quickly attracted the attention of several surrounding civilizations.

Dongyuan is located at the edge of the Orion Arm star field, but even at the edge, there are still many civilizations around, no matter whether it is up, down, left, or right.

The up, down, left, and right here refer to the up, down, left, and right of the parent star relative to the center of the Milky Way, rather than the up and down relative to the plane of the Milky Way disk.

On the vertical coordinates relative to the Milky Way disk, although there are a large number of galaxies, there are no two civilizations overlapping in this direction. In the vertical direction, there are only more galaxies. For the time being, no two civilizations have been found to overlap vertically with respect to the disk. Together, it saves all civilizations a lot of trouble when mapping galaxies.

While most civilizations were paying attention to the battle between the two empires within the Yama civilization, Dongyuan received a message from a civilization three hundred light-years away.

"Your subspace refrigerator technology is very good. We appreciate it very much. I hope you can share the technology with us. Don't be ignorant."

The civilization that sent the message is called the Bebak tribe. Intelligence on them shows that this is a species that looks like a one-eyed spider and belongs to the collective hive mind.

This entire civilization is a whole civilization, which surprised domestic biologists after its discovery, including Qiu Baiyu's student Fang Xiaoqi.

Therefore, Dongyuan also conducted a series of investigations and researches on the Beyback group. Qiu Baiyu also sent a lot of nano-robots there, but unfortunately, their hive consciousness prevented Qiu Baiyu from penetrating at all.

However, although there is no way to infiltrate and become their core circle, it is still possible to obtain information.

This civilization is many times stronger than the Starfish Empire. The Starfish Empire is at best a "small civilization" that can only use destroyers as its main force.

As for the Beyback group, according to Qiu Baiyu's investigation, they have three fleets, each fleet has a battleship as its flagship, and dozens of cruisers, hundreds of destroyers and frigates below it, forming a huge fleet ocean.

These three fleets are of course not enough compared to the civilizations of the Domler and the Brugan Federation as the council, but this does not mean that the Bebak group has no resistance.

The reason why there are only three fleets permanently is mainly related to a maintenance cost issue.

In peacetime when there is no war, most civilizations will choose to retain only a small fleet as an emergency and deterrent. If there is a war or they are preparing for military operations, they will start to explode their troops.

If it is a time of critical survival, the Hive Mind will have a more terrifying dumpling speed than other civilizations (except the Omnic Empire). They can also have the same The strength of civilizations such as the Domler ethnic group to contend with.

After all, the civilization that entered the interstellar world would have been destroyed long ago if it did not have the ability to explode ships.

So if it’s okay... Generally speaking, the war between two civilizations will not be a life-and-death situation, as long as the morale of the other side is hit, and the people of the other side are tired of the war through various methods, so that the civilization’s The ruling bloc is forced to accept the terms of the peace.

And if you want to start a war, the preliminary preparations are actually simple. You only need an excuse, such as asking the other party to provide resources and technology, or claiming that a certain galaxy is your territory since ancient times. After making an excuse from the Galactic Community, you can proceed. Mobilized before the war.

The laws of the galaxy do not have many restrictions on the war between civilizations.

Dongyuan also knows this.

Now, that's what the Baybacks are doing.

They asked Dongyuan for subspace refrigerator technology. If they agreed, the other party might be very satisfied and treat Dongyuan like a vassal.

But Dongyuan is this kind of country that casually handed over things for the sake of peace for a while?

That must be rejecting the request of the Beyback group.

"I'm sorry, but we can't agree to your request. If you want to cooperate with us on this technology and jointly manufacture products, Dongyuan is happy to cooperate with you, but the technology belongs to our country's secrets and is prohibited from exporting. Technology." The response from the Interstellar Ministry of Foreign Affairs was very polite.

But obviously, the Baebak group of collective consciousness will not favor human beings because of Dongyuan's politeness, but will only lower their favorability because human beings refuse to ask.

The Dongyuan Military Department, after responding to the Bayback group, is currently conducting a national security meeting.

Xu Zhiqing, who used to be the commander of the expeditionary fleet for the self-defense counterattack against the Starfish Empire and the captain of the flagship, looked at Qiu Baiyu's information about the Beyback ethnic group, pondered for a moment and said: "The civilization of the Beyback ethnic group is a collective consciousness. If the entire civilization is considered as a whole, if you want to launch a war against us, there may be no opposition within the civilization, and there is a high probability that an expedition will be launched against us within a few years."

Zhu Mingda, the top general of Dongyuan, said: "Academician Qiu asked the Security Bureau to send information that the other side has three fleets. If they launch a war against us on the grounds of taking scientific research results, they can only dispatch one fleet at most. If the whole army is dispatched, then we can unite with the civilizations around them to carry out the tactics of besieging Wei and saving Zhao from them."

The Bebak group is a hive mind, a civilization that always aims to expand and proliferate.

Then in the process of their expansion, they must have conflicts with surrounding civilizations due to various rare resource issues.

If their fleets are all within the empire, then the surrounding civilizations will definitely not dare to act rashly.

But if their entire army is dispatched to attack Dongyuan, then I'm sorry, the surrounding civilizations will force them to explode their ships and drag them down from the rear.

"Battleship." Zhu Mingda said with emotion, "Every inch of this thing is gold. If all resources were regulated by the state when we looked forward to the interstellar, we would have no way to build this kind of gold-swallowing beast in this period."

Xu Zhiqing, who has experience in interstellar warfare, nodded in agreement, "That's right, but the large-scale strategic weapons equipped with this thing are also worthy of its cost. If the Beyback group dares to come, you can try the one highly recommended by Academician Qiu. This weapon."

Major General Zheng Xingye said: "I have been in contact with Academician Qiu before. She is very confident in this weapon, but it is not enough for us to fight against an old interstellar civilization. This powerful weapon called the particle light spear is very effective in attacking the shield. The effect is not very satisfactory. Before designing, you need to break the opponent's shield first."

"This can only be piled up with relatively cheap unmanned carrier-based aircraft... The aircraft carriers dedicated to carrying unmanned carrier-based aircraft should be almost ready?" Ye Dexing asked.

Zhu Mingda nodded, "It's too extravagant to use a frigate to make room for drones. There have been plans for the construction of interstellar aircraft carriers, and the two interstellar aircraft carriers responsible for the maintenance and landing of unmanned carrier-based aircraft have already been built. complete."

Ye Dexing smiled slightly, and said with emotion: "Unexpectedly, an aircraft carrier, the strongest killer in the old era, can only become a foil for battleships in the interstellar era."

"The star sea is different from the surface ocean after all." Xu Zhiqing said with a smile: "When the war spans the entire galaxy, it is extremely difficult for missiles to reach sub-light speed or even beam lights, and things should be eliminated. Only weapons that travel faster than light can strike enemies thousands of miles away."

Xu Zhiqing, who was one of the few in the on-site meeting who had participated in the interstellar battleship bombardment, had a great say in this aspect.

The previous military action against the Starfish Empire in self-defense allowed the Dongyuan engineers to accumulate a huge amount of valuable experience, making them more proficient in designing ships.

"Accumulating the experience of the last military operation, we need a more comprehensive plan this time. With the emergence of subspace refrigerators, we can try to take more radical measures."

We are still studying the use of zero-point energy. For the time being, it is impossible for warships to gallop on the interstellar for decades without resupply (living supplies are discussed separately). However, the fuel supply and resupply of the antimatter reactor is in order to deal with the dangerous interstellar environment. The star bases that have been developed will all be stored. As long as they are in Dongyuan, the fleet does not have to worry about fuel supply.

The main energy weapons, such as cracking cannons, lasers, and particle light spears, do not require additional energy supplies, including shield generators, and antimatter reactors can be self-sufficient.

That is to say, defensive weapons and close-range weapons such as powerful antimatter beams, antimatter missiles, and point defense interceptor missiles need to be supplemented.

Of course, routine maintenance is still necessary. After a battle, the launch array of the particle light spear needs a little time for maintenance, and it cannot continue to fight.

After all, it is a rudimentary particle light spear. Before the focus array technology and energy weapon rapid coolant technology are not released, this is the only way to go.

Focused array technology is a series of upgrades and transformations for energy weapons. It is used to improve the launch rhythm of a series of energy weapons such as particle light spears, further focus the particles in them, and increase their power—that is, the game's Cycle technology +5% energy weapon damage.

Rapid coolant is something that cools down the launch array quickly, and at the same time it is a lubricant that makes the energy weapon launch array more stable—that is, the cycle technology that increases the rate of fire of energy weapons by 5%.

These two developments are too early. After the battleship and the particle light spear are selected, Qiu Baiyu is going to light the arc first, and use the arc to cooperate with the particle light spear to fight. After that, he will use his energy in other places and wait for it to stabilize. , and then the whole country will make full efforts to research and develop the focus array and fast coolant.

At this point, Qiu Baiyu can only speed up scientific research, but cannot directly unlock it like many technologies.

Because these two are a process that must be done step by step, they cannot be compared with those that only require knowledge and drawings to be copied mechanically.

After the military department's regular meeting on the Baebak group was over, under the authorization of the military department and the General Affairs Department and other departments, Xu Zhiqing rushed to the Sun Star Base, intending to personally tell Qiu Baiyu the battle plan for this meeting.

Qiu Baiyu participated less and less in Dongyuan's decision-making.

But that doesn't mean her views are ignored.

On the contrary, the current Dongyuan is basically willing to listen to Qiu Baiyu's opinions after several changes in power.

Qiu Baiyu's reputation among the people is also unparalleled. More importantly, she is an influence in the technical direction. Now she gradually does not participate in high-level decision-making, but her influence on high-level decision-making has become more profound.

If she speaks, no matter who it is, even the current ruler, it must be carefully considered—even though Qiu Baiyu has never done so, she has repeatedly said:

"I just need the right to know. For any decision, you can make your own decisions. I'm just a retired 'old man' now."

And these words made everyone respect her more and care more about her opinion.

In the shipyard of Solar’s ​​star base, Qiu Baiyu and thousands of engineers are here to supervise the battleship day and night, and she is also forced to complete the injection of cell activity enhancer to renew the body’s metabolism. Song Guoan, the former president of the National Academy of Sciences in Chun, Xu Jitong, the former professor of Zihai University of Science and Technology, and others.

Among the older generation of scientists, the oldest, Song Guoan, has lived to be a hundred years old, far exceeding the age he originally thought he could live to.

Although he is retired now, he is still leading the energy research team studying zero-point energy.

Originally, he planned to do nothing, but he had no choice. After feeling his body became stronger again, he didn't want to rest at all.

Although he is now forced to live until he is over 100 years old, he will not live much longer without cell regeneration treatment.

When Xu Zhiqing came over, Qiu Baiyu, Song Guoan and others were discussing the battleship's reactor.
