Epoch of Twilight

The re-contact with humans is a complete tragedy for the Bosingians.

Before the fleet escaped into the speed of light, during the long three hours, the cumulative losses of battleships reached four.

...

Located in the War Command Hall of Space City.

As the space fighters synchronized the images of the war here, passionate emotions filled the entire hall, and many people's faces were flushed with excitement.

Before this war, most people were extremely pessimistic about this war.

To a certain extent, the Boxing people are the teachers of human beings. Human beings learn the technology of the Boxing people and learn everything about them. From imitating at the beginning, they gradually surpassed them later, but their confidence is still insufficient. After all, the objects of comparison are only their sixties and seventies. years ago technology.

Human beings shape the Boxing people as objects to catch up with, and artificially elevate them in their imagination.

Especially when the Bosing Fleet came here this time, taking the lead and approaching the Barnard star system in a way beyond imagination, everyone was full of despair and tragedy.

But this dramatic victory, although unexpected, contained a lot of luck, but it also built up a lot of confidence in mankind.

It turns out that the performance of the Bosingians was not as hopelessly powerful as imagined. Apart from the unsolvable super-light flight, their warships were not even as good as humans, and when the war broke out, those Bosings’ warships were unbearable to deal with, which made everyone feel confused At the same time as the mind, it is also relieved.

"So, I only lost three space fighters, but destroyed four of the opponent's warships." Looking at this bizarre battle result, Bi Jianping was a little confused. If it weren't for this result, which had been confirmed repeatedly, he would doubt whether it was a mistake.

In the end, is the human being too strong, or the Boxing people are too weak.

"There is no specific conclusion yet, but the preliminary judgment is that there is a problem with the response of their command, which caused them not to enter the state of war from the beginning to the end." An accompanying officer explained: "However, their warships are indeed relatively Vulnerable, with no targeted protection against our gamma ray cannon."

Gamma rays are a kind of highly penetrating energy, but heavy metal atoms can effectively defend against such rays, and the armor of human warships has generally used multi-layer critical gold interlayers. The energy level of space fighters is basically It is impossible to carry out penetrating damage to the battleship, but obviously the Boxing people did not provide targeted protection for their battleship.

Technology is like this, where there is a spear, there is a shield, and there is no single method that can cover everything.

At this time, an alarm sounded from the war command hall, and the space wave detection system captured a drastic change in the data of their trajectories, and there was a little commotion on the scene, and everyone immediately paid close attention to the change of the light spot.

The light spot representing the Boxing battleship seemed to slowly circle a large circle in an arc trajectory, and then... sailed towards the direction it came from.

Bi Jianping was stunned, and couldn't help wondering: "What are they doing?"

The officer who accompanied him was also at a loss. It was really hard for him to understand the behavior of the Boxing people. He opened his mouth and hesitated: "Maybe this is a weird strategy!"

...

This is naturally not a strategy of the Boxing people. On the one hand, the authorization for war has not yet come, and on the other hand, the early defeat has also made the Boxing people more cautious.

If it is said that this war has made human beings excited and excited, then the Boxing people are only flustered and cautious, and the ease and confidence they had when they came here are gone.

"This is the human defense distribution map and their space city in the rocky planet's low-earth orbit detected by the spacecraft before entering the speed of light."

On the huge holographic screen, a dense defense network was densely distributed in the vast space like star points. All the high-level attendees watched all this in a daze, filled with disbelief in their hearts.

Although the number of such defense facilities is still dwarfed by that of Boxing's homeland, those are the results of continuous construction over the past century, and because there have been no foreign enemies for a long time, military investment is pitifully small, and space defense facilities , most of them are old, and many of them are old antiques from decades ago.

But how long have humans been here?

It has been nearly twenty years since the expedition spacecraft lost contact. Even if the spacecraft sailed to this galaxy at full speed from that moment, it would take about twelve years. In other words, they only stayed for eight years at most, but in reality, the time was much shorter.

"Their technology is quite advanced, and to some extent, it has even surpassed ours." The military staff officer of the Bositians continued, with a solemn expression: "They use a kind of ultra-high-density gamma rays that we can't understand Weapons, the defense of our spaceship is as fragile as a thin iron sheet in front of it, and it has no resistance, and this is just the weapon of their miniature battleships."

"They also built three giant warships, and they are located in our original channel, obviously to intercept us." The picture changed again, the huge warships, everyone who saw them was shocking, smooth without any splicing On the surface of the traces, it shows the strong industrial strength of this warship.

The atmosphere in the conference room was silent for a while.

"Okay, that's the end of the analysis! Let's discuss what countermeasures you have." The Bosingian commander said while suppressing the irritability and anger in his heart. At this time, he was completely desperate for the bureaucracy at the top. , the mandate for war has still not come.

Of course, he would not think that he underestimated the enemy and rushed forward. After all, who would have thought that 3.5 light-days away from the nearest planet (about 90 billion kilometers, while the solar system has a radius of 15 billion kilometers based on the Kuiper belt), this absolute star system The outer security area will happen to encounter human military forces. According to the original plan, they will conduct a brief repair and simple intelligence collection there, and then easily destroy every individual of this race.

It is not him who is wrong, but all Boxing people underestimated the strength of human beings. This is a creepy and terrible race. If this war fails and human beings cannot be wiped out, maybe it will not take ten years for Boxing to usher in human beings. revenge.

Fortunately, nothing is irreparable.

Curvature flight technology not only puts the initiative in war in their hands, but also has terrible destructive power, even if it rampages, it can collapse all human defense forces.

It's just that he didn't know why, but there was always a strong anxiety in his heart, like an early warning of a natural disaster.

There seemed to be a force in the dark that was urging him to escape here quickly.

...

At this moment, hundreds of millions of kilometers away from the Boxing spacecraft, Luo Yuan is like a ghost, suspended in the dark space.

In the dark background, his figure seemed to blend into the darkness, and his binocular vision had been temporarily adjusted by him, returning to its original sharpness. He quietly watched the distant Boxing spacecraft, as if thinking slightly.

ps: In the end, I broke my promise, and after thinking about it, I decided to write it out!
