“I’d like to make a simple analysis of the situation…”
Colonel Chu was the first to speak. Their invitation to participate in the war from the Moon side was a breakthrough; he had to seize it.
Zhao Yu nodded, “Go ahead.”
“The current situation is that the enemy is mainly attacking, and we are mainly defending…”
“The enemy has 93 warships left, some stationed near the wormhole in Pluto, and some in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter…”
“We have over 220,000 warships…”
“In terms of warships, both sides are of equal speed. Our attack methods are slightly inferior, but most of the attacks can be intercepted. The only dangerous attack is the Particle Singularity Collapse Bomb…”
“And the Particle Singularity Collapse Bomb can only be launched by a spaceship at close range. This means we can’t let them break through to within 500,000 kilometers of the Earth…”
Colonel Chu paused and counter-questioned, “What is our warship production speed?”
Zhao Yu thought for a moment, feeling that this was not a secret, and said, “Given sufficient resources, we can produce about 10,000 warships a day…”
Compared to before, the production rate has increased again. Uncle Da has been continuously expanding the production line during this time.
Colonel Chu nodded, “Now, the enemy has three advantages. First, they come from other galaxies, and what has arrived in the solar system is just a Moro fleet, which is relatively flexible…”
“Second, they have a powerful weapon, the Particle Singularity Collapse Bomb. Other than keeping their ships behind the safety line, there is no other way to intercept this kind of attack…”
“Third, their energy conversion efficiency is 20 times higher than ours. The same attack, whether in terms of power or energy consumption, is much better than ours…”
“We also have two advantages…”
“First, we hold the Earth and the Moon, have a lot of supplies and warship manufacturing production lines, our supply situation is much stronger than theirs…”
As he said this, Colonel Chu asked again, “Are our spaceships controlled by robots?”
Having seen the previous data, he had a hunch that all the spaceships might not have any living people in them, but were controlled by robots.
“That’s right, all the warships are currently controlled by robots!” Zhao Yu nodded.
“So, our second advantage is that we can exchange pawns. Use our robot-controlled ships to take out their warships…”
Colonel Chu smiled and said, “High energy conversion efficiency does not mean that their ships do not need resources at all…”
“So, my idea is to send a fleet equipped with the latest type of propulsion system to take the initiative and carry out harassing operations…” “Harassment operations?!”
Zhao Yu became interested and quickly asked for details.
Colonel Chu nodded, “No matter what raw materials the enemy’s particle black hole transformation needs, the fuel carried on their supply ships must be limited. They must replenish from planets within the solar system…”
“So, we can send warships away from the Mars defensive line. Some go to Pluto to harass their rear, some go to the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter to harass their temporary base…”
“Our attacks, whether they evade or intercept, will consume energy. When the energy is about to be exhausted, they must replenish…”
“To replenish, they need to enter an asteroid or a planet and set up a temporary defensive base. At that time, we can use our advantage of having more warships to bombard them continuously…”
“In this way, the enemy must be unable to attack with full force. They need to split forces and focus to deal with the harassment troops…”
Zhao Yu thought carefully and felt that it was indeed a viable plan.
The speed of the ships on both sides is now comparable. As long as a safe distance is maintained, the enemy cannot do anything to his ship.
“In the cosmic environment, according to the means currently revealed by the enemy, our fleet can evade or intercept regular attacks…”
“To destroy our fleet, they need their shuttle ships to approach within 500,000 kilometers of our fleet and self-destruct…”
“So, we don’t need many harassment troops…”
“Each fleet only needs 50 warships. They are flexible and don’t need to worry that the enemy will sacrifice a shuttle ship to wipe out the fleet…”
“50 warships for one of their shuttle ships, I think it’s worth it, after all, their total number of ships is only 93…”
“Besides, they have shuttle ships, so do we. If the speeds are not much different, we can completely let five of our shuttle ships collide with one of their shuttle ships…”
“Most importantly, we are not afraid of sacrifice, but they are. In this way, they will inevitably hesitate and it won’t be long before they will have to retreat…”
There are still many points that need to be supplemented in this strategy, such as whether the enemy has backup troops, whether the enemy will also use robots, or if they have more powerful weapons, etc. But now is not the time to discuss these.
“Very well, let’s do as you say!”
A smile appeared on Zhao Yu’s face. He hadn’t thought of all these before. Now it seemed that bringing a group of wise advisers from the Earth was the right decision.
After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he counted the number of people again. There were 19 advisors in total. He said, “So, you divide yourselves into three shifts to ensure there are people in this command center at all times. At other times, you can move freely…”
Then, he looked at Colonel Chu, pronounced a surname, and drew out a long sound, not knowing what to call him.
“My name is Colonel Chu…”
Colonel Chu explained, “My father struggled in the army for a lifetime, barely reaching the rank of Colonel before he died without advancing any further.
When I was born, he named me ‘Colonel’ in hope that I could make up for his regrets…”
Zhao Yu nodded slightly, “In that case, Colonel Chu, you are in charge of arranging the work times for the others. Also, there are twenty maglev cars parked downstairs. You can drive them to the houses in Moon An City to rest. The access has been granted…”
After saying this, Zhao Yu hurriedly left to return to the lunar base. He followed the plan provided by Colonel Chu, and asked Uncle Da to reproduce warships proportionately.
After Zhao Yu left, Colonel Chu and the others began to wander around the command center.
“Senator Chu, come and look, this is a gravitational wave detector, I can already see the warships on the Mars defense line…”
After a round, they found that apart from being unstaffed, the command center had all the facilities one could expect.
It was not only able to detect the situation on the Mars defense line, but it could also see the enemy fleet far away in Pluto clearly.
“Gravitational wave detector, real-time detection, this is too magical…”
Colonel Chu quickly familiarized himself with the equipment and divided the people into three groups according to what Zhao Yu had said. They worked on an eight-hour shift system, ensuring there were people in the command center at all times.
“Group one, stay with me, groups two and three can rest. You can stay in the dormitory or go to Yuean City. You are free to do what you want….”
