Chapter 163: The Two Armies Meet and the Scientists Go First

In other words, there are still four years and three months left for mankind.

Of course, four years and three months from now is when the fleet of the unknown civilization arrives at Aldebaran. If humans want to run away, they should run directly in the opposite direction before its arrival.

As for how much time in advance it is safe to run away, it must be estimated from the effective range of weapons of the first-level civilization.

Well, in theory, beam weapons are also laser weapons. The speed is the speed of light, and the strike distance can also be measured in light years. However, considering that space is not a real vacuum with nothing, laser weapons will definitely have some effect at ultra-long distances. attenuation.

The same goes for positron cannons.

So this is a typical example of adapting measures to local conditions and analyzing specific issues.

In order to deal with the next series of affairs, Yue Yuan quickly summoned all relevant scientists on the Tianqin to the bridge, and also connected many experts through video communication.

After Manyuemei also returned to the bridge, Yue Yuan, who was sitting firmly in the captain's seat, looked at the gathered scientists in related fields: "The power between us and the enemy is limited to the three elements of heaven, earth, and man, and the two armies Friendship is nothing more than knowing oneself and knowing the enemy. Now one cannot know the enemy, so one knows oneself.”

Yue Yuan habitually talked about a theory, and then continued: "As for confidants, we first need to know all aspects of our own internal information. Regardless of other aspects, now we first need to know how our own weapons and battleships are in the Aldebaran environment. You are all experts in all aspects of the indicators, and these data need to be measured as soon as possible. "

"This is easy to do. We only need to release small laser beams and small positron cannons everywhere in the space, and conduct tests at different powers, different distances, and different positions to get specific data, but this requires the cooperation of the military."

The one who spoke was Liu Miyan. He paused, and after seeing Yue Yuan nod, he stretched out his finger to tap on his personal terminal. After the screen of his personal terminal was projected on the big screen, he continued to talk while comparing: "According to the commander-in-chief's concealment requirements, we can conduct experiments here, here, and here. We have ready-made small frigates. We can start doing it after we upload the test program. I expect it will be available within half an hour. The data we want.”

Everyone looked at the map Liu Miyan projected on the big screen. These points were blocked by planets or asteroids between the positions of interstellar dust.

"Well, without further ado, Professor Liu, you are going to take care of this matter now. The Department of Astronomy has synchronized all the parameters related to Aldebaran to the system, and you can call them by yourself. In addition, the twelve frigates near these points will cooperate. You." Yue Yuan said immediately without hesitation.

To obtain clear data, it is necessary to take into account all environmental factors, so that humans can then make various strategic arrangements based on these parameters.

Just like a sniper needs to obtain all information related to the environment, humans must also have all the information about this environment, as well as various performance data of their own spaceships and battleships in this environment, absolutely no less.

So don't look at it as just a collection of test parameters for laser weapons and positron cannons. All parameters of Aldebaran must also be taken into consideration.

This cannot be ignored, because humans are now very close to Aldebaran, only about 2.1 astronomical units. Aldebaran is an orange giant with 44 times the diameter of the sun, and its surging stellar wind affects it all the time. Everything around.

So it seems like a simple sentence, "Go and test it." What needs to be added includes Aldebaran's gravity, stellar wind rules, stellar wind strength, density, space temperature, spectral type, magnetic pole stability, magnetic field strength parameters, Orbital resonance frequency and a series of parameters.

Without physicists, astronomers and other related professional experts, it really wouldn’t be possible.

It can also be seen from this that in the interstellar era, scientists and technicians are the real main force, and almost everything is inseparable from professionals.

Seeing Liu Miyan starting to organize his team to write test programs directly on the bridge, Yue Yuan couldn't help but feel a lot more at ease. Then he looked at the military personnel.

"What do you think of the alien fleet?"

Yue Yuan has his own judgment in his heart, but he is still used to listening to other people's opinions.

"All specific tactics can only be planned after Professor Liu and the others obtain specific data, but before that, we can analyze some useful information from previous observations." It was Man Yuemei who spoke, and she relaxed a little He tightened his collar and continued:

"Judging from the tracks of the dust cloud, we determined that the other party has 413 spaceships, including 120 large spaceships. Based on this, we can make a preliminary judgment

If this fleet is a civilized advance fleet, then these one hundred and twenty large spaceships are most likely to be main battleships. If this is determined to be the case in subsequent detections, then I suggest that part of it be completed within three years as much as possible. Resupply, then evacuate. "

"In another case, if this fleet includes all spaceships including the entire civilization, then most of the 120 spaceships may be residential spaceships. If this is the case, I think we can consider dealing with them, Make plans again.”

"Of course, all this is based on the premise that we are ready to evacuate." Perhaps it was the lesson of the previous Silver Mist, Man Yuemei added.

"Let me add one sentence." A sociologist saw Man Yuemei finish her words and then said, "I think this is the first civilization of the same level that we humans have encountered since we set foot on the interstellar. The significance of contact is greater than direct withdrawal. Therefore, if it is the second situation mentioned by Minister Man Yuemei, I think we should make contact."

After the scholar finished speaking, the heads of various departments spoke again. However, the main content of their explanation was not about the alien fleet, but used data to explain the probability of humans completing a large supply before the arrival of the alien fleet.

Yue Yuan listened to their views quietly.

Although they did not say it explicitly, he could feel that most of these people tended to at least get in touch with the alien fleet first. After all, it was the first time that humans had encountered a civilization of the same level since they set foot on the starry sky.

Yue Yuan knew it, but now humans only have 10 mountain-class warships. If the other party's 120 large tracks are not all, but one-third are combat-type battleships, they are four times the battleships of humans. The difference in strength can be imagined.

"I hope it is an entire civilization rather than an advance force." Yue Yuan touched his chin and prayed secretly in his heart.
