Super Mothership

Chapter 529: Civilization Threat Level

Inside Dreadnought, Gemini's senior commanders are holding a post-war meeting.

"In this campaign, we lost a total of 124 warships, including 3 large destroyers, 4,230 mecha units, more than 50,000 drones, and some fortifications were damaged. It will take about 5 days to repair..."

Listening to the series of losses, everyone's faces were solemn.

"What about the results?" someone asked.

"Destroy the enemy's more than 5,600 new mechas..."

Everyone's faces became more serious.

Without the use of warships, just raiding with mecha troops caused such losses to them, and this battle loss ratio was undoubtedly quite astonishing under their own home field advantage.

The most important reason is that the other party has used a lot of powerful new mechas that Gemini has never seen before.

"Damn, the opponent's previous attacks, whether it was a battleship or a mecha, showed that the combat effectiveness was obviously inferior to ours. Is it intentional to hide the strength?"

"Perhaps... this is just the opponent's small elite army, and cannot be used as a reference for the opponent's true strength?"

"I don't think it is very likely. Who will consume the precious elite army in the most dangerous stage of wormhole attack? It is more likely to hide strength!"

"..."

The officers present expressed their opinions one after another.

At this time, a Sea Clan officer sitting in the first seat and wearing a blood-red cloak asked in a deep voice. "Has the results of the analysis of the new weapons of the Woolf Civilization come out?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, all the officers present immediately quieted down.

This sea clan officer's face is rigid, and his actual age cannot be seen. The deep nasolabial lines and the hooked nose are slightly vulture. Compared with the ordinary sea clan, his body is a little thinner, but his eyes are extremely sharp.

Girard, one of the only five generals in Gemini, is also the supreme commander of the Woolf Civilization Front!

According to Gemini's military system, an officer at the commander level of a legion like Ishar is roughly equivalent to a major general, a full two levels behind Gillard.

There is a general-level commander in each of the four star regions, and Girard is the highest military commander in the Gallente star region where the Woolf Civilization Wormhole is located!

"Your Excellency General Gillard!" An officer immediately stood up and reported. "The reverse engineering of the wreckage of the enemy mecha has been initially completed. According to the analysis of the data extracted from the wreckage, the enemy named this mecha 'Bronze'!"

"'Bronze'? Tell me about its specific properties." Girard said.

"Yes! According to the existing information, in addition to the defensive performance, this mecha almost reaches 80% of the performance of our sea storm-level mecha.

From a technological point of view, the opponent's mecha is suspected to have applied force field propulsion technology. In terms of the morphological changes and application of the force field, the enemy undoubtedly surpassed us.

But this is not the fundamental reason for the strong combat effectiveness of the opponent's mecha corps. The most fundamental reason is... the opponent's pilots generally reach the level of our ace pilots! "

The atmosphere at the scene was slightly condensed.

In this raid, the opponent dispatched at least 10,000 "bronze" mechas, and nearly 10,000 mechas with similar performance to the sea storm level?

What's even more frightening is that tens of thousands of ace pilots were dispatched in one raid? Too extravagant, right?

Even if Gemini has so many ace pilots, it is impossible to waste it in such a brutal war of attrition.

If it weren't for the lack of heavy firepower support, the opponent would be able to tear a hole in the Gemini's defense line by relying on these elite mecha corps!

"With the sample, can you reverse the opponent's mecha technology?" Girard asked.

War is the best catalyst for technological progress, and war between civilizations is even more so!

On the civilized battlefield, every good commander not only needs to learn how to use war to weaken the enemy, but also how to use war to strengthen himself.

From the perspective of the war between the Earth civilization and the Gemini civilization, relatively speaking, the side with weaker technological strength will get the greater benefits.

certainly,

The premise of getting the benefits is that you can buy enough time to completely digest the technology in a weak war...

"The other party has taken certain technical protection measures, but we have obtained a lot of samples this time. I believe that they can be digested and absorbed within 2 to 3 years, but large-scale promotion and application will take at least 4 to 5 years!"

Girard frowned. Obviously, the digestion time of this technology is not enough for Gemini to get rid of each other's technological advantages in a short time.

He lowered his head and thought for a while, then turned his gaze to a young naval officer beside him. "Beckman, I want to hear what your staff thinks."

Although it was also an inquiry, Gillard's tone was obviously softer, and he obviously valued the young officer.

Beckman is a rather handsome naval officer, but his sitting posture is a little lazy, and a golden electronic pen is flexibly turning in various postures in his hand, which makes people dazzled.

Hearing Gillard's question, Beckman closed his hand, held the pen, and raised his head, with a little more expression in his slightly lazy eyes.

"Well...I think we need to re-evaluate the Woolf civilization..."

Then, on the huge projection display in front of the officers, the weapons of war that the Woolf Civilization had used so far began to appear.

Among them, there are spaceships in the shape of squid, various mechas holding different weapons, and war machines with various shapes, and there are dozens of types.

Beckman pointed to these projections, "According to the previous encounters between our two sides, the technological strength of the weapons of the Woolf civilization is obviously inferior to that of Gemini, so our battle damage ratio was generally lower than that of Gemini. Keep it around 5 to 1!

If we put aside the factor of our geographical advantage, the battle damage ratio can also be maintained at about 2:1.

In addition, various intelligence collected through the battlefield shows that... the interior of Woolf Civilization does not seem to be monolithic!

Generally speaking, in order to reduce manufacturing costs and improve the efficiency of logistics and maintenance, the standard weapons used in the army should preferably be of uniform specifications. Therefore, only one or two different types of weapons of the same type can be purchased at most.

Even in a joint government like our Gemini, the same is true.

However, the combat weapons of the Woolf civilization are diverse, and there are already more than 3 known participating races, so there is a 90% probability that they do not have a unified military system, which leads to logistical confusion.

Because of this, our previous basic judgment on the Woolf civilization was "similar in strength" and "inadequate dominance", and the threat level to us is only A-level! "

Domination! This is one of the important criteria for judging the comprehensive strength of a civilization within the Gemini civilization.

The comprehensive combat effectiveness of a group is not only related to hard power such as technology and population, but also has a great relationship with soft power such as political system and military structure.

The strength of dominance depends on the power system adopted by the civilization. The more concentrated the power, the stronger the combat ability displayed in the civilization war!

Therefore, relatively speaking, the ruling power of the imperial civilization is the strongest, and a system like the Gemini Union Council is also slightly inferior.

For example, the loose "United Nations physique" among more than 200 countries on the earth, once encountering a foreign enemy, even if the overall strength is slightly inferior, but if there is a real fight, I am afraid that even "North" will not be found...

Another example is the "blue-green camp physique" unique to a certain area of ​​the earth, which has exerted the magical effect of 1+1\u003c0, and the unparalleled "combat power" is really delightful and breathtaking...

Of course, all the countries of the earth have been "hired" in disguise by Nie Yun, and foreign operations have almost become the words of the ghost captain, and the dominance is definitely at the "monarchy" level.

It is precisely because of the inferior level of technology, coalition forces with more than 3 races, and chaotic military logistics management that Gemini previously gave Woolf a low score and listed him as a "target to be developed".

But obviously, the powerful raid launched by Woolf Civilization this time sounded the alarm for Gemini!

"Judging from this fight... we were clearly misled.

The opponent does not lack advanced weapon technology and a unified military command structure, and the unknown wormhole expansion technology is an amazing strategic force!

In addition... this time the other party still did not leave any prisoners, right? ' Beckman asked suddenly.

"Yes! The incompetent mecha automatically shuts down the life support system, and there is no one alive!" Someone replied.

"Well! The obvious forced suicide attack! From this point of view, it is not a combat tactic that a low-dominant civilization can execute!" Beckman said firmly.

"You've said so much, don't you just want to say that the other party deliberately showed the enemy to be weak, and now I'm afraid even the blind can see it!" Someone said with disdain.

Beckman shook the electronic pen in his hand indifferently.

"No, although we were misled, it wasn't that the other party was deliberately showing weakness. Such strategic deception is of little significance to us.

What I mean is that the other party has a two-tiered military ruling system. The lower layer is chaotic and inefficient, similar to the peripheral forces of civilization, while the upper layer is not only stronger, but also has absolute dominance over the lower layer!

It can basically be judged now... the other party is very likely to have a pyramid-style ruling structure! ' Beckman said.

"What? A two-tier military system?"

"Above the seemingly chaotic ruling layer, is there a first-level ruling layer?"

"Well... in this case, the huge gap in strength between the front and rear of the opponent can be explained!"

"So, what we met before was just the other side's peripheral soldiers? This time is their regular army?"

"..."

After Beckman and others digested the information, they continued to speak slowly.

"According to my judgment, the current participating races... are likely to be the slave civilization of the other party!" He further guessed along this line of thought.

"From this way of ruling, we can roughly imagine the aggressiveness of the Woolf civilization.

Once the other party wants to launch a war of aggression, it must be a brutal war of attrition regardless of the cost, until the blood of the slave civilization is dry, threatening its own ruling class.

And if the ruling class wants to control these lower slave civilizations, it must have more than one or even two levels of ruling-level force.

Therefore, I believe that the threat level of Woolf civilization should be raised from A- to A+, which is listed as a very threatening civilization! "

The crowd was silent.

The A+ level civilization threat level has only appeared twice in the history of the Gemini civilization, and each time it has brought great trauma to the civilization.

And the A+ level one level higher is the completely irresistible S level, referred to as "natural disaster level"!

Whether or not Beckman's speculation is correct, many are aware that Gemini seems to be in big trouble...
