The content of the absolute trust declaration delivered by Chen Feng at the decision-making meeting is as follows.
"There are still twenty-one days before I arrive. I will not say anything to show my respect. So far, you have all done very well, beyond my imagination. On my own behalf, I would like to express my gratitude for everyone's selfless dedication. I do not represent the people of the 21st century. Because the people of the 21st century do not owe us anything, they have already dedicated all their energy to the progress of civilization."
"I need to emphasize that everyone's struggle is not for me, nor for yourselves in the next timeline, but only for you now, and your descendants."
"At present, the main battlefield is the asteroid belt, and the compound eyes have slowed down their offensive. We can make better use of the complex environment and strategic depth of the asteroid belt."
"I think the asteroid belt is the best place for Marshal Tang Tianxin to perform. So I absolutely trust Marshal Tang Tianxin's ability to serve as the supreme commander. I know some people have objections, thinking that her command style is too radical and too risky."
"But I think that in the competition of cosmic civilization, we are already late, this is an objective fact. So whether for individuals or for the entire civilization, living is an adventure!"
"Humans have never been qualified to seek stability, because stability is not up to us. Seeking stability cannot defeat the enemy. Everything we are experiencing now is something I have never experienced before."
"Every day and every second we live is a new adventure! So what we need is an adventurous leader, Tang Tianxin."
"I absolutely believe that when I arrive, you, under the leadership of Marshal Tang Tianxin, will still block the Compound Eye Fleet in front of the asteroid fragmentation zone. You will also complete more information collection and create better weapons. We will explode the technological deposits accumulated over countless generations and countless millennia, and use the core of the Mi tribe to create unprecedented powerful armor."
"We will capture at least one prism ship, see the history of the Compound Eyes, and we will understand more about how many secrets there are in this cold-blooded universe!"
"As for now, please absolutely trust Marshal Tang Tianxin. She has been my right-hand man many times in the past timeline, commanding the human fleet. Every time, she can bring our military strength to the extreme."
After saying that, Chen Feng took the initiative to leave the conference room.
He has already expressed his position, so the development of the next thing can be predicted.
"Brother, this won't cause too much pressure on my sister-in-law, right?"
Fredes, who had just completed a fold and had a short rest after setting the route, ran to Chen Feng and asked.
Chen Feng nodded, "Of course. But it's not a big problem. This little pressure can't defeat her."
"Yeah."
Chen Feng glanced at Xiaofu's head again.
It's getting sparser.
In the past, you could still see fluffy silver hair, but after only eighteen days, there were only a few dozen silver hairs on his head that could be easily counted at a glance.
The wrinkles on Xiaofu's face have become much denser, and his face has slightly gray age spots.
No one may believe it, but the two are actually the same age.
Xiaofu is at least ten years younger than Chen Feng.
During these days, Fredes's scientific research work has not decreased at all. At the same time, he must operate the folding engine intensively every forty minutes.
His sleep and rest time has been cut into pieces.
In order to ensure the success rate, he has to do the preparation work to the utmost every time, which requires a lot of pre-calculations.
Although most of the specific calculations were done by Fanxing, Xiaofu also had to do a lot of things.
Every time he controlled the Morning Breeze II to fold, Xiaofu not only had to accurately control the folding engine to form a perfect folding space layer, but also had to perform triple nine-axis positioning of the spaceship involving the curvature subspace, the original three-dimensional space, and the folding space.
With the completion of multiple folds, Xiaofu's understanding of the triple space has gradually deepened.
In the analysis of the frigate fragments that Ou Qinglan and he had completed together before, it was Xiaofu who played a leading role.
Xiaofu re-summarized the relationship between the three spaces. Xiaofu
's description is as follows:
Assume that there is an absolutely straight line segment in the original three-dimensional space, which is absolutely straight to the human eye.
The two ends of the line segment are point A and point B respectively.
The spaceship flies in the original three-dimensional space. Assuming the speed is constant, it takes a constant time to get from point A to point B.
The essence of the curvature space seems to be the same as the original three-dimensional space, but it actually uses the gravitational lines that are everywhere in the universe .
Gravitational lines are not straight lines, but are curved to a certain extent, just like magnetic fields.
After the straight AB line in the original three-dimensional space is synchronized to the curvature subspace, it is affected by the spatial distortion of the cosmic gravitational lines and becomes a curve.
The spaceship first exceeds the speed of light, and then enters the curvature space that is strongly connected to the original three-dimensional space by the gravitational lines. The curve of the original space can be ignored, and it still follows a straight road from point A to point B.
Then theoretically, the greater the curvature, the shorter the flight time when the speed of the spaceship is constant.
And curvature space is divided into many layers. The first layer currently mastered by humans can achieve the maximum curvature by changing the ratio of the straight line distance between the two points to the absolute length of the curved space arc to 1:20.
At this time, the flying speed of human ships relative to the original three-dimensional space is 20 times the speed of light.
The theoretical upper limit of the second layer of curvature space currently calculated by humans is exactly 500 times the speed of light mastered by the compound eye prism.
Perhaps there are deeper levels, and the flying speed will continue to increase exponentially.
But the folded space is completely different from the original three-dimensional space and curvature space.
Take the two-dimensional world as an example, and click two points on a piece of paper.
In the plane of this paper, the distance between the two points AB is the line segment AB.
The time it takes for the spaceship to reach point B from point A remains constant.
But now humans can fold the paper so that points A and B coincide directly.
Then the distance between points AB becomes infinitely close to 0, or even 0 at all.
The essence of the folded space is another dimension of space where points AB "do not exist", and its absolute length is actually 0.
Just like comparing three-dimensional paper with two-dimensional paper, the folded space has one more dimension than the other two spaces.
In theory, this dimension refers to "time". In fact,
before humans came into contact with the core of the Mi tribe, they had already touched the concept of folded space.
It was the quantum folded stargate, but Fredes believed that the "folded space" in the stargate was not real, but that humans accidentally touched the lower-level curvature space.
Both of them can almost form the effect of instantly traveling across extremely long distances. The speed difference seems small, but the multiple should be 1 divided by a number infinitely close to 0.
What Fredes summarized seems simple. Ancient people had already imagined it, but it is the first time that humans have seen it so profoundly and applied it.
Chen Feng knew that he was very tired, but he couldn't persuade him.
After Tang Tianxin took over, he decisively adjusted the battle strategy and implemented the strategy of attack instead of defense.
The human fleet showed an active offensive posture, often taking the initiative to attack and sweep the battlefield, trying to kill as many remaining combat units as possible that flew out of the prism, and narrowly trapped a single prism several times, completing a large number of tests in a very short time.
Tang Tianxin turned the vast asteroid belt front into a huge chessboard, and every move had an impact on the entire board.
In terms of tactics, Tang Tianxin used the artificial intelligence assistance of the stars to the extreme. In
terms of strategy, the thinking of human deployment has become more bizarre and unpredictable. It no longer regards the preservation of manpower as the highest motivation, and presents a posture of everything being ready except for the east wind, as if as long as they can get an enemy ship, they can win the battle.
Humans revealed a stronger desire to capture a prism ship.
This made the Compound Eyes hesitate to try to break through the asteroid belt defense line. They retreated 200 million kilometers and spread out further, just to maintain the minimum blockade of the shadow galaxy as much as possible.
As time went on, new scattered prism ships arrived at the battlefield. The number of the Compound Eyes' fleet began to increase continuously and gradually exceeded 40,000.
The size of the force increased by more than 30%, but the Compound Eyes did not strengthen the offensive. Instead, they let these prism ships begin to be arranged in space at a fixed distance to form a grid.
This is exactly the grid connection that Chen Feng had dealt with before.
Since the prisms are too loosely distributed and the plasma density inside the grid connection is low, most of the warships in the shadow galaxy can pass through easily, but they are enough to block the transporter fleet from entering the shadow galaxy and prevent the people inside from getting supplies.
The compound eyes also specially allocated a mobile squadron of 3,000 prisms to specifically lurk in the gravitational line curvature subspace near the shadow galaxy to prevent anyone from escaping from the shadow galaxy.
This has caused the firepower of the compound eyes to attack the human defense line to decline again.
Obviously, the compound eyes have changed their combat strategy.
Before the size of the fleet exceeds a certain number, the compound eyes would rather accompany humans in a tacit "tug of war" near the shadow galaxy than easily launch a general attack.
According to the forecast of the command and Chen Feng, the lower limit of this number should be exactly 100,000.
It should take more than one year and seven months to reach it.
In short, under Tang Tianxin's seemingly risky new strategy, humans have achieved a lower casualty rate and have completely stabilized their position in the asteroid belt. As the saying goes, soldiers never tire
of deception, nothing more than this.
Unknowingly, 176 days have passed since Chen Feng and Xiao Fu began to fold forward.
The shadow defense war has already started for thirty-nine days.
Chen Feng has 36 folds and one day left to reach the black hole.
According to the planned plan, the 35th fold of the Morning Breeze II will jump out of the pull of the black hole's gravitational line and appear accurately in the Ulter Cloud of the Shadow Galaxy, behind the array of compound eye prisms.
New problems must be faced.
How to smoothly connect Chen Feng to the interior of the Shadow Galaxy and let him join the main force.
Although Chen Feng has an unprecedented level of armor control and a set of folding armor, it cannot be denied that the Morning Breeze II is essentially just an outdated product pieced together from a pile of garbage. Although
the core components of the Morning Breeze II are also extremely technologically advanced, not inferior to the main battleships in the Shadow Galaxy, that is only the power of Fredes' design. The strength of the main frame of the ship is probably not as good as those transporter ships that break at the touch.
Besides, Chen Feng's folding armor, except for the folding engine, the performance of other components is barely civilian type, and only the Corona hand cannon can be regarded as top military equipment.
The reason why the scene of Chen Feng destroying the spherical ship alone shocked the people of the Morning Wind Empire was the weird and strong contrast between the quality of this equipment and its terrifying combat power.
Chen Feng's sudden appearance was like an ancient general suddenly jumping out on the battlefield of hot weapons in the 21st century, holding a Fang Tian Hua Ji, wearing a gilded chain mail, and then chopped down the armored vehicles that his comrades holding machine guns were amazed at.
But now, standing in the way of this ancient general are tens of thousands of Type 99 Kai.
If you continue to force your way forward, you will definitely fail.
In order to smoothly connect, Chen Feng, Fredes, the command center and many scientific researchers have formulated thousands of careful plans, trying to find a foolproof solution.
Unfortunately, there is none.
The only seemingly most feasible method is to allow Morning Breeze II to not leave the curvature space, but to directly cross the front line and appear inside the galaxy.
But this is difficult.
It is difficult enough to safely get rid of the black hole's gravitational line and then smoothly stop at the predetermined position instead of diving into the black hole.
The compound eyes have already formed countless space frozen threads outside the galaxy. The curvature subspace here is greatly affected, and the ubiquitous turbulence can easily tear the ship into pieces.
In addition, there are a large number of frigates and blade mantises patrolling in the subspace for a long time, so it is not absolutely safe.
In addition, Morning Breeze II does not have the ability to enter or de-orbit a curved path. If it really hypercurves and directly rushes into the interior of the galaxy, the possibility of diving into a star is greater than stopping safely.
"The most reliable way is to forcibly break through the blockade of the prism ship and open a safe passage in the original three-dimensional space. Then our special forces will escort the Morning Breeze II that has stopped outside in advance."
Tang Tianxin said.
The problem is, how to open this passage?
According to the simulation calculation of the stars, in order to create an absolutely safe path for Morning Breeze II, at least more than 8,000 prism ships must be absolutely suppressed by firepower at the same time, which is impossible.
