Chapter 530 Civilization Threat Level
In the fearless battle star, the senior commanders of the twin stars are holding a post-war meeting.
"In this campaign, our side lost a total of 124 warships, including 3 large destroyers, 4230 mech units, more than 5 drones, and some fortifications were damaged. Repairs will take about 5 days..."
Hearing the series of losses, everyone's expressions were solemn.
"What about the results?" Someone asked.
"Destroy more than 5600 new enemy mechs..."
Everyone's face became more serious.
Without the use of warships, they have caused such a loss with just a surprise attack by mecha troops. It is undoubtedly quite amazing to achieve such a battle loss ratio under the advantage of their own home field.
The most important reason is that the opponent has used a large number of powerful new mechas that Gemini has never seen before.
"Damn it, the opponent's previous attacks, whether it was a battleship or a mecha, showed significantly inferior combat effectiveness to ours. Could it be that they deliberately hid their strength?"
"Perhaps... this is just the opponent's small elite army, and it 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 attacking the wormhole? It is more likely to hide their strength!"
"..."
The officers present expressed their opinions one after another.
At this time, a marine officer sitting in the first seat and wearing a blood-red cloak asked in a deep voice. "Have the results of the analysis of the new weapons of Woolf civilization come out?"
As soon as he spoke, all the officers present immediately fell silent.
This sea tribe officer had a hard face, his actual age could not be seen, the deep nasolabial folds and aquiline nose looked like a vulture, his figure was a little thinner compared to ordinary sea tribe, but his eyes were extremely sharp.
Gilad, one of the only five generals in Gemini, is also the supreme commander of Woolf's civilized front!
According to the military system of the Twin Stars, an officer like Isar, who is at the level of a legion commander, is roughly equivalent to a major general, and is two full levels behind Girard.
Each of the four major star regions has a general-level commander in charge, and Girard is the highest military commander in the Gallente star region in the area where the Woolf civilization wormhole is located!
"Your Excellency General Girard!" An officer immediately stood up and reported. "The reverse engineering of the wreckage of the enemy's mecha has been preliminarily completed. According to the analysis of the data extracted from the wreckage, the enemy named this mech 'Bronze'!"
"'Bronze'? Tell me about its specific performance." Gilad said.
"Yes! According to the available information, apart from the defensive performance, this mecha has almost reached 80% of the performance of our seastorm-level mecha.
From a technological point of view, the opponent's mechs seem to have applied force field propulsion technology, and the enemy has undoubtedly surpassed our side in terms of the shape change and application of force fields.
But this is not the fundamental reason why the opponent's mecha corps has a strong combat effectiveness. The most fundamental reason is...the opponent's pilots have generally reached the level of our ace pilots! "
The atmosphere at the scene was slightly condensed.
In this raid, the opponent dispatched at least tens of thousands of "bronze" mechas, a total of nearly ten thousand mechas with performances similar to those of the seastorm class?
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 them in such a cruel war of attrition.
If there is no heavy fire support, the opponent may be able to tear a hole in Gemini's defense line relying on these elite mecha corps!
"With the sample, can you reverse the opponent's mecha technology?" Gilad asked.
War is the best catalyst for scientific and technological progress, especially wars between civilizations!
On the civilized battlefield, every excellent commander not only needs to learn how to use war to weaken the enemy, but also learn how to use war to strengthen his own side.
Judging from the war between the Earth civilization and the Gemini civilization, relatively speaking, the party with weaker technological strength will get more benefits.
Of course, the premise of getting benefits is that you can buy enough time to fully 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 we can digest and absorb them 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 the opponent's technological advantage in a short time.
He lowered his head and thought for a while, then turned his gaze to a young marine officer beside him. "Beckman, I want to hear the opinion of your staff."
Although it was also a question, Gilad's tone was obviously softer, and he obviously valued this young officer.
Beckman is a very handsome marine officer, but his sitting posture is a little slack, and a golden electronic pen is flexibly turning in various postures in his hand, which makes people dazzled.
Hearing Girard's inquiry, Beckman withdrew his hand, held the pen, and then raised his head, his slightly lazy eyes were full of excitement.
"Well... I think we need to re-evaluate Woolf civilization..."
Then, on the huge projection monitors in front of the officers, the war weapons used by Woolf civilization so far began to continuously emerge.
Among them are squid-shaped spaceships, various mechas with different weapons, and war machines of various shapes. There are dozens of types.
Beckman pointed to these projections, "According to the previous fights between our two sides, the war weapons of Woolf civilization are obviously inferior to the Gemini Stars in terms of technological strength, so our previous battle loss ratio is generally lower than that of the Gemini Stars. Maintained at around 5 to 1!
If we put aside the fact that our side occupies a geographical advantage, the battle loss ratio can also be maintained at around 2:1.
In addition, all kinds of information collected through the battlefield show that... Woolf's civilization does not seem to be monolithic!
Generally speaking, in order to reduce manufacturing costs and improve logistics and maintenance efficiency, it is best for the standard weapons used in the army to have uniform specifications. Therefore, for the same type of weapons, only 1 or 2 different models will be purchased at most.
Even a coalition like our Gemini is the same.
However, the combat weapons of Woolf civilization are various, and there are already more than 3 known races participating in the war, so there is a 90% probability that they do not have a unified military system, which leads to logistical chaos.
Because of this, our previous basic judgment on Woolf civilization was "similar in strength" and "insufficient dominance", and the threat level to us was only A-level! "
Dominance!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 the ruling power depends on the power system adopted by the civilization. The more concentrated the power, the stronger the combat ability shown in the civilized war!
Therefore, relatively speaking, the ruling power of the imperial civilization is the strongest, and a system such as the Gemini United Council is also slightly inferior.
For example, the loose "United Nations physique" among more than 200 countries on the earth, once encountering foreign enemies, even if the overall strength is slightly inferior, if there is a real fight, I am afraid that even "North" will not be found...
Another example is the unique "blue-green camp physique" in a certain area on the earth, which has exerted a magical effect of 1+1<0. The unparalleled "combat power" is really delightful and amazing...
Of course, all countries on Earth have been "hired" by Nie Yun in a disguised form, and foreign operations have almost become the command of the ghost captain. His dominance is definitely at the "imperial" level.
Due to the low level of technology, the coalition forces of more than 3 races, and the chaotic military logistics management, this is an important reason why Gemini gave Woolf a low score and listed it as a "target to be developed".
But obviously, the powerful raid launched by Woolf civilization this time has sounded the alarm for Gemini!
"Judging from this battle... we were clearly misled.
The opponent does not lack advanced weapon technology and a unified military command organization, and the unknown wormhole expansion technology is an amazing strategic power!
In addition...the other side still didn't leave any prisoners this time, right? "Beckman asked suddenly.
"Yes! The mecha that lost its combat effectiveness automatically shut down the life support system, and no one survived!" Someone replied.
"Hmm! The most obvious mandatory suicide attack! From this point of view alone, it is not a combat tactic that a civilization with low dominance can implement!" Beckman said firmly.
"You said so much, didn't you just want to say that the other party deliberately showed weakness to the enemy before, and now I am afraid that even the blind can see it!" Someone said disdainfully.
Beckman shook the electronic pen in his hand indifferently.
"No, although we were misled, it was not that the other party deliberately showed weakness to the enemy. Such strategic deception does not make much sense to us.
What I mean is that the opponent already has a two-tiered military ruling system. The lower level is chaotic and inefficient, similar to the peripheral forces of civilization, while the upper level is not only stronger, but also has absolute dominance over the lower level!
Now it can basically be judged...the other party most likely has a pyramid-like ruling structure! "Beckman said.
"What? Two-tier military system?"
"Above the seemingly chaotic ruling layer, there is a layer of ruling layer?"
"Well... In this case, the huge gap in strength between the opponent and the front can be explained!"
"So, what we faced before was only the opponent's peripheral soldiers? This time is their regular army?"
"..."
After Beckman and the others digested the information, they continued to speak slowly.
"According to my judgment, these races currently participating in the war... are likely to be the slave civilization of the other party!" He speculated further along this line of thought.
"From this way of domination, we can roughly imagine the aggressiveness of Woolf's civilization.
Once the other party wants to launch a war of aggression, it must be a cruel war of attrition regardless of the cost, until the blood of the slave civilization is shed, threatening its own ruling class.
And if the ruling class wants to control these lower-level slave civilizations, it must have a ruling-level force that exceeds one or even two levels.
Therefore, I think that the threat level of Woolf civilization should be raised from A-level to A+ level, and it should be included as a very threatening civilization! "
The crowd was silent.
The civilization threat level of A+ level has only appeared twice in the history of the Gemini civilization, and each time has brought great trauma to the civilization.
And one level up from A+ level is the completely irresistible S level, referred to as "natural disaster level"!
Regardless of whether Beckman's speculation is correct, many people realize that Gemini seems to be in big trouble...
