An inexplicable alarm broke the tranquility of Space City One on the Sori orbit. This space city is the space military command center of the Carter civilization and is responsible for unifying all military forces in the parent star system and resource deployment tasks.

After learning that the Amoeba fleet will reach the parent star system in a few years, every space city is armed to the teeth, all kinds of ammunition, food, medical supplies, building materials and other resources are fully stocked, and the weapon system is always in place. In the online state, once the space city's radar is locked to the enemy, it only takes half a minute to complete the system security unlocking, and fire immediately without preheating after aiming.

Each space city keeps in touch at all times. Once a space city is attacked, a fleet will immediately rush there to support it. The attacked space city does not need to defeat the enemy, but only needs to support until the arrival of reinforcements.

However, with such full preparation, one of the many space cities suddenly lost contact, which also meant that the space city fell.

"Space City on the 8th lost contact!"

In the command room, the commander-in-chief immediately got a report from his subordinates.

No one will question whether this is a false alarm caused by a problem with the communication system of Space City on the 8th. In the early stages of the formulation of the plan, the strategic decision-makers had long considered that such false alarms might exist, so they used multiple types of false alarms. Communication terminal, and multi-band communication is always carried out. One communication terminal may fail, and a single channel may be interfered. However, all communication terminals and all frequency bands have disappeared and cannot receive information. This means that Space City No. 8 has been destroyed.

Apart from this, there is no second explanation.

"What's the final message?" the commander-in-chief asked.

He stared sternly at the location of Space City No. 8 on the display screen, where there was a scarlet warning icon.

"Just some routine reports!" Subordinates reported.

Hearing this information, the commander-in-chief was obviously stunned. In the formulated strategy, the major space cities would send out all the information displayed by the enemy while fighting, in order to obtain intelligence on the military forces of Amoeba. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win all battles. The Carters also understand this truth. In order to defeat the invaders of Amoeba and win the final victory, they must obtain the intelligence of the Amoeba fleet.

However, what the subordinates are reporting now is so unexpected by the Commander-in-Chief. There is no information about Amoeba, which means that Space City on the 8th did not notice the arrival of the Amoeba fleet and went to destruction, and The heavy armor of the space city does not provide a trace of protection at all. It is like paper... No, it is more fragile than paper. Even if the huge space city is to be destroyed, it will take time. This time is enough for the operator to convey some simple The information came out, but the fact that Space City No. 8 suddenly disconnected. This shows that Amoeba killed all the Carters in Space City No. 8 in an instant.

"Sudden destruction?" the commander-in-chief murmured.

It was inferred that the commander-in-chief of these people could not help but feel heavier. He withdrew his gaze from the warning icon and strode to the place where the staff group gathered. At this moment, these Carter civilized military elites are due to the fall of Space City on the 8th. Conduct many hypothetical military exercises.

After seeing the arrival of the commander-in-chief, the staff stopped the discussion.

"What do you think?" the commander-in-chief asked.

One of the staff officers stood up and explained to the commander-in-chief that they had reached a conclusion after many discussions.

"The loss of Space City on the 8th is most likely due to the early arrival of the Amoeba civilization's vanguard fleet. That place is the closest location to the Amoeba mother star system and the direction from which the Amoeba fleet invaded us."

Immediately there was another staff officer who stood up and agreed with this point of view. This staff member was a firm supporter of the "Quality War Theory". "I also agree with this speculation. The war between civilizations is basically a competition in quality. It comes from afar. Miba is definitely not as good as ours in terms of quality, so they will try their best to occupy some places and get as many resources as possible."

"The imaginary simulation of cross-stellar warfare was once very intuitive. A fleet of tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of ships overcomes the gravitational force of a star and launches to another star. The energy consumed is extremely large, and the fleet itself Slowing down also requires huge energy consumption, so it is very uneconomical."

"If only a small number of the strongest elites are assigned, the energy consumption requirements will be much less. These elites only need to occupy some planets, and then increase their combat effectiveness by acquiring the resources of these planets."

In order to be able to understand what methods and attack methods Amoeba will use when invading, the military elites of Carter civilization assume that their civilization is the invader’s side to conduct military deductions. It is also based on this ideological experiment. They discovered the military theory of "Quality War Theory" ~lightnovelpub.net~ It is obviously unrealistic to maintain a cross-stellar supply line. If they do this forcibly, it is not only a simple matter of speeding up the fleet, but also military supplies. The mass of the astronaut will also accelerate the voyage across the star. As time goes by, such military costs will become higher and higher, which is very anti-intellectual.

Therefore, some people have suggested that instead of working hard to accelerate military supplies, it is better to accelerate the arsenal, move the entire arsenal to another star system, and use local materials to produce military supplies.

You don't even need to move the arsenal. It needs to move a simple production line that can make an arsenal. After reaching another star system, use the material resources in that star system to create a large number of arsenals to meet the needs of front-line warfare.

These are the reasons why the military strategy class in the Carter civilization values ​​"Quality War Theory" so much, because in their opinion, Amoeba is very likely to invade in this way.

"This is to consider the problem from our perspective. We can't ask what amoeba should do based on our own standards."

The commander-in-chief did not agree with the judges of the staff. After synthesizing all the intelligence information, he stated his decision.

"I decided to attack the entire ship, and the 200,000 warships went to the twelfth orbit to meet Amoeba's fleet."

"Do you think it is Amoeba's main fleet?" the staff officer asked.

The commander-in-chief shook his head, and he explained the reason for his decision.

"It doesn't matter whether it is or not, we urgently need a victory to prove our strength, which can boost morale and allow the Amoeban group of invaders to see our current strength."

"In order to ensure that this first victory can be foolproof, the whole ship attack is a necessary choice. Who of you has objections?"
