Chapter 244: The Current State Of Hans Civilization
“There are 18 planets here, with as many as 10 rocky planets. It’s a rare star system where the number of rocky planets exceeds that of gas giant planets, and it’s clearly not been heavily mined. What a rich place!”
“Hmph, with your Hans Civilization’s meager foundation, even if you join the Sirius Civilization, you won’t be allocated a star system of this level. If I were your civilization’s leader, I’d take your civilization’s elite and break away from the civilization system at that time, transferring out limited resources to form a pirate fleet.”
“Pirates? Running around dodging all day, living a precarious life from day to day?”
“Tch, that’s only for pirates in the central star domain. Their location has very busy transportation routes, but at the same time, there are many advanced civilizations around, so the risk is too high. Look at our Fox Pirate Group; we’ve been established for 300 years now. If we hadn’t encountered Mr. Fan Ren, I think we could have continued surviving for several more millennia.”
“Heh.”
Mai Er’s mouth twitched, clearly not believing the Fox’s nonsense, but at this moment, as a prisoner, he had no mood to argue with that clown.
Over there, the Fox was getting more and more excited as he spoke.
“The current Fox Pirate Group has 10,000 battleships and tens of thousands of cruisers. This is already a fully capable regular pirate group that poses a threat to a Tier 2 Civilization. Under my leadership, I have confidence in completely clearing out all civilizations within 10 light years around the Centaurus α star system in a hundred years.”
Fan Ren glanced at him but did not refute.
He knew that in the Fox’s fantasy, he had included the Conqueror. Otherwise, with just these Punishers specialized only in close combat, approaching the enemy fleet on the battlefield would be a problem.
Just like the battleships used by the Hans Civilization, equipped with long-range heavy attack missiles with an effective range of thousands of kilometers. If the Conqueror wanted to approach within 200 kilometers effective range, it would inevitably pay a heavy price.
And equipment like ECM electromagnetic shielding could at most be used only once; afterward, it would be specifically targeted and wouldn’t have much effect.
After all, others would guard against that move of yours.
With the Conqueror, this awkward situation could be changed.
In the previous post-war summary meeting, an operations staff officer proposed that in the future, unmanned driving could be used, with one-time decoy ships directly flying at super high speed to close range of the enemy fleet, then activating the decoy to allow delivery troops to appear directly within 200 kilometers of the enemy fleet, thereby landing and launching attacks directly.
Currently, the Azure Phoenix Legion in the Ross 154 star system is training on this tactic.
It is believed that in the future, this method can achieve unexpected effects.
However, in using the Conqueror spaceship, one must be extremely cautious to ensure absolute post-battle information secrecy, leaving no trace on the battlefield.
Fan Ren did not want, at a time when humanity was still very weak, to be targeted by other advanced civilizations because of this issue.
As if to pass the extremely boring time, Fan Ren also spoke softly: “Fox, tell me, if you were the leader of this pirate group, which nearby civilization would be your first target, and you can detail your general combat strategy.”
As his words fell, the Fox immediately threw a fawning smile.
At this time, Mai Er, whose mood had not been high, also perked up his ears.
He wanted to see what level this pirate leader was, who had been wandering around the Centaurus α star system, with no glorious battle records but always surviving well.
“Hehe, Mai Er, don’t blame me for looking down on your Hans Civilization. If it were me, my first target would definitely be your Hans Civilization.”
The Fox’s eyes narrowed, showing a treacherous and extremely annoying expression.
“Actually, I’m still very puzzled to this day. Your civilization has been registered in the Galactic Alliance for nearly 500 years, right?”
“Hehe, in 500 years, your civilization’s technology development has completely stagnated at the time of initial registration, and even the most important material processing technology, you’ve given up on research and development.”
“To be honest, although our Fox Civilization was very backward in other technologies back then, material processing technology was something we always focused on researching.”
“At that time, as a Tier 2 Civilization, our materials science processing technology had already reached the standard of a Third Level Civilization.”
“That is, the silver-like super metal processing technology higher than molecular level processing technology used in this spaceship.”
“As far as I know, the selling price of an ordinary small flagship hull on the starfield market is as high as nearly 10 billion.”
“And in the public data from your Hans Civilization, you have 5 such small flagships.”
“Tsk tsk, hard to imagine what great price you paid for this.”
“And this!”
“Directly led to your Hans Civilization having no spare funds to build conventional ship forces.”
“I really can’t imagine that you dared to launch an expedition against a civilization 4 light years away with just 500 battleships under the lead of one small flagship aircraft carrier.”
“You know, with your fleet’s strength, my original dreadnought could completely devour you!”
“The only shortcoming was that we didn’t have a way to leave you behind back then.”
“But now it’s different. If I were to arrange it, with my 10,000 battleships under the strategic delivery technology of the Titan warship, they could use pirate guerrilla, interception, and ambush tactics with an extremely low battle damage ratio to restrict your fleet within your home star system, not daring to move recklessly.”
“Finally, after this situation is successfully established, I would send out all the battleships to make a feint of a frontal total assault.”
“I think your chief commander would definitely be dazzled by my previous harassment tactics.”
“And you know, I also have a Titan with a doomsday weapon.”
“Titan!”
“Its favorite battlefield environment is large-scale formation battles.”
As the Fox spoke, Fan Ren nodded slightly.
Not out of any approval of the Fox’s tactics.
To be honest, if not for the need to keep the Conqueror hidden, just this one Titan-class battleship with tens of thousands of battleships would give Human Civilization the strength to steamroll all civilizations in the Centaurus α star system.
What Fan Ren was thinking about was how the Fox analyzed the current state of the Hans Civilization from its expedition fleet.
His gaze turned to Mai Er, who was clearly somewhat unconvinced.
But his gaze eventually dropped.
The Fox had hit the mark.
It seemed that the situation of the Hans Civilization was not good.
“Alright, all these tactics are built on the Titan spaceship; this has no meaning. In this situation, even as a war idiot, if I personally commanded, there wouldn’t be much surprise.”
He smiled and interrupted the Fox, then his gaze looked forward.
Directly in front of the increasingly close deep blue star, the star gate stood quietly in the vast space.
Around it, several Sirius Civilization Navy battleships were also quietly stationed nearby.
