Chapter 226, weapons determine the form of war
Since ancient times, human history has been a history of war. There are too few years of true peace, too few, power and interests, ambitions and pride. In short, there are too many things that make humans kill each other.
All wars have a characteristic, that is, the form of war changes around weapons. In ancient times, war relied on cavalry, bows, arrows, swords and guns and other cold weapons. Therefore, many very famous tactics were born around these cold weapons. The Eastern Mongolian cavalry swept the world to bring the two things, such as cavalry and bows and arrows to the extreme.
There were very famous heavy cavalry in the West. The knights and war horses in thick armor were like a torrent of steel, and there was no opponent wherever they passed, which fully exerted the characteristics of Westerners' tall figure and strong and explosive power.
However, with the emergence of artillery, this brand new weapon, artillery destroyed the Europeans' chivalry spirit. In front of artillery, the heavy cavalry seemed fragile, and the hard castle could no longer become a shelter, and the form of war had undergone tremendous changes.
In the era of hot weapons, with the continuous advancement of musket technology, it gradually developed from the very famous way of playing music and shooting the square arrays in line to shooting each other in three phases. After the muskets truly mature, various square arrays and so on were instantly thrown into the long river of history.
The war on the ocean, from the early counterattacks and string battles, gradually developed towards larger and stronger giant ships and cannons. Finally, the emergence of aircraft changed the form of war again. Giant ships and cannons were gradually eliminated into the long river of history, and aircraft carriers emerged from nowhere.
With the changes in weapons, human war forms have been undergoing tremendous changes. In modern times, with the increasing development of science and technology, war has long been all-round, globalized, precise and rapid. Uncle Sam was able to take off fighter jets from the local area of North America to bomb Iraq far away in the Middle East.
Intercontinental missiles with a range of thousands of kilometers or even tens of thousands of kilometers are enough to achieve global strikes. Satellites, spacecraft, etc. located in space can carry out extremely terrifying space-based weapon attacks all day long and throughout the day. It can be said that war is always changing, and it is constantly changing around weapons.
Li Fu relied on the weapon attack system to deeply analyze the form of future wars, and then analyze the form of the space warships used for future cosmic wars. This was recognized by everyone present, and everyone nodded.
"Since we have understood the weapon system that can be used in cosmic warfare, then let's imagine what future cosmic warfare will be like."
As Li Fu's words fell, the large screen of the virtual world venue changed again. With the vast starry sky as the background, a huge group of space warships was surging and aggressive. Countless space fighters and spacecraft were dragging their long tail flames up and down, like an extremely huge war scene.
"Because the attack weapon in our hands has a long enough attack distance, which can be hundreds of thousands of kilometers or even millions of kilometers, or is also calculated in astronomical units. At the same time, because its attack speed is fast enough, it attacks at the speed of light."
"So I think the future space war should be countless attacks that continue to traverse the void, giant ships and cannons are bombarding each other, and countless space fighters carry large-scale bombs such as nuclear bombs and are intercepted by the other side's equally huge space fighter."
On the large screen, the picture began to change. On the huge space warships, powerful energy weapons began to spray out dazzling light columns. These light columns were like sharp swords that broke through the void and made huge holes on the enemy's warships.
Countless cosmic fighter jets took off from the space warships and roared past the void. The huge group of fighter jets kept entangling and fighting in the void. Countless fireworks continued to explode in the dark void. A few cosmic fighter jets broke through the enemy's defense line and avoided the fatal attacks launched by the opponent's large space warships.
Successfully approached the huge space warship, hurriedly dropped nuclear bombs, and then fled quickly. Soon, accompanied by a terrifying wave, huge flames rose up in the void, and a huge space warship was annihilated.
In the virtual world venue, everyone received such information in their minds, and they were deeply shocked by the huge cosmic war scene imagined by Li Fu.
After a long time, everyone slowly came to their senses and frowned and thought carefully. From such a scene, everyone was able to understand the future form of cosmic warfare, and naturally they knew how to design a space warship.
"After reading it, I think everyone should be able to know how we should design our own space warships, first, before we can master a powerful power system."
"I think our space warships should be in the form of giant ships and cannons, with thick skin and strong flesh, strong attack power, and strong resistance."
"At the same time, learn how to use the core warships as the center, and add space warships to the void around the warships. The function of these frigates is to resist deadly attacks for the core warships and shoulder the bridgehead for attack."
Li Fu continued to preach. Under the pattern of a void background, with Li Fu's explanation, the core space warships were in the middle, with smaller space warships acting as frigates in various directions such as the upper and lower, left and right, front and back of the space warships. The entire warship group formed a huge battle group. This is the space warship and space war model conceived by Li Fu.
Of course, Li Fu's consideration was not random. From the seeds of super civilization, Li Fu knew that in the early stages of the universe war, the larger the mass, the more powerful the space warship, because in the early stages, the power of the power system and attack system were very limited, so if you want to destroy the opponent's large space warship, you must carry out enough attacks.
To put it simply, in the early stages, two tanks cut each other against each other, and if you cut me with one knife, I will cut you with one knife, and each other has very limited attack power. No one can kill each other by 10 or 8 knifes. The one who compares each other is who has higher defense and who has thicker blood.
When technology continues to develop, the attack power has increased and the speed has also increased. At this stage, the two ADCs are fighting each other, comparing who is more flexible, whose attack methods are more powerful, and whose attacks are faster and more powerful, because anyone can easily kill the other party.
Of course, the first stage is to rely solely on the plasma power system and the primary energy weapon attack system. This is definitely a typical example of developing into a thick-skinned tank. It has poor flexibility and limited attack power. It is better to compare defense and blood. Only those who persist until the end are real men.
Of course, if you can bring a killer like a nuclear bomb to the enemy, you can naturally destroy the enemy in one fell swoop, but the enemy is not a fool. Countless cosmic fighter jets and ultra-long-distance attack systems are enough to destroy any enemy target that wants to approach you.
Although the nuclear bomb is amazing, in the void environment of the universe, if the enemy's distance exceeds 100 kilometers, the impact on the enemy can basically be completely ignored. The distance of 100 kilometers is only a matter of seconds for space warships, spacecrafts and space fighters traveling at high speed in the universe.
It is a dream to rely on nuclear bombs to win a cosmic war. You are not even close to the enemy, let alone causing damage to the enemy. No matter how fast the missile is, it is not as fast as the universe, let alone compared to the energy weapons at the speed of light.
"The above are some of my personal foolish opinions. Please give me some advice."
After Li Fu finished speaking, he bowed slightly, and then returned to his position. The virtual venue was silent, and everyone was still immersed in the future universe war conceived by Li Fu.
"Li Fu's words were very good, which made us suddenly realize that we had a clearer understanding of the future universe war."
Li Fu's old acquaintance, Liu Shiying stood up and spoke slowly.
"I think there is one thing that can be added. Since power technology is not well developed, space warships focus on attack on one hand and defense on the other hand."
"From the weapon system we have now mastered, the most effective attack is naturally nuclear bombs. Can we focus on a relatively flexible space fighter, specifically used to break through the enemy's defense line and send nuclear bombs to the enemy's space warship, so as to achieve an important military goal of destroying the enemy in one fell swoop."
Liu Shiying saw some key points from the cosmic war described by Li Fu just now, so he proposed to design a cosmic fighter with very high flexibility to break through the enemy's defense line. Since large space warships are difficult to improve their flexibility, small space warships and spacecrafts are always OK.
"I think we can increase the defense of warships from the perspective of defense? If we can research technological means similar to the energy shields that often appear in science fiction movies, then the defense of warships can be greatly improved, and there can be more space to increase the attack power and flexibility of warships."
With Liu Shiying starting, other scientists began to express their opinions. Of course, they basically revolved around the idea of giant ships and cannons proposed by Li Fu, and found ways to improve the defense, attack power, flexibility, etc. of warships.
