"That's still better than total annihilation, isn't it?"
"Same here. Our follow-up forces will catch up with the scattered fleets soon. Only by regrouping now will we have a chance to break out. You'll see, the humans will launch a mass breakout soon. Once they succeed, they will definitely use their regular fleets to hold us off while their elites escape. Keep a close eye on them then, and don't let a single one get away."
"Don't worry, none of them will escape outside!"
On Earth Two, countless people stared intently at the holographic screen before them, attempting to intervene in the Wind Master ' battle. Computer technology has developed rapidly in recent years, but like Academician Xiao, the academicians of the School of Computer Science are also unable to make computers intelligent. No matter how fast a computer is, it cannot be as smart as a human.
They can do some routine things faster and better than humans, but when faced with logical problems that are not programmed into the system, computers become very sluggish. Simple logic is fine, as the computer's self-learning ability may be able to solve it, but once they encounter logic involving replication, they are helpless.
For example, a simple logical problem that often arises in war is whether to fight or retreat, to live or die. These are the most common questions in the eyes of humans. To sacrifice oneself to save comrades, to sacrifice oneself for the greater good, or to feign an attack or retreat, humans can always grasp the timing perfectly. But computers are different. No matter how many instructions are given to a computer, it cannot master the degree. It is not that computers cannot do it, but that computers cannot grasp the appropriate degree according to the battlefield situation and actual needs.
Therefore, even now, warships still require human intervention during combat. For example, if an enemy ship is 5,000 kilometers away to the left of Wind Master and 8,000 kilometers away to the right, the computer can choose to attack the enemy ship 8,000 kilometers away in order to achieve the overall objective.
However, humans often do not do this. Although attacking a nearby target 5,000 kilometers away is not conducive to the overall situation, humans still do it. In fact, in the end, it is very likely that this human error will lead to a change in the overall situation. The battlefield situation changes rapidly. No matter how powerful a computer is, without consciousness, it cannot control the overall situation at all times. Moreover, war is not about computing power, but about war wisdom and on-the-spot adaptability.
" Zhonghua, time's almost up. Let's break through."
"Yes, not long after we break out of the encirclement, the main force of the Xuan Star Civilization should arrive. At that time, the Wind Master will be completely annihilated, and the first phase of the Trojan Horse Plan will be successfully completed."
"I hope so."
The Wind Master suddenly increased its engine power, began to fight against the spatial vortex, and slowly moved outwards. Once it reached the same radius as the Xuan Star Civilization warship, it immediately turned around and rammed into the enemy ship ahead. Fighting against the spatial vortex was difficult, but moving along with it was easy. The Xuan Star Civilization warship could only keep increasing the distance between itself and the Wind Master to avoid being hit. If the Wind Master, this behemoth, were to collide with the Xuan Star Civilization warship, its effect would definitely surpass any offensive weapon.
However, the Xuan Star Civilization Civilization's warships were far more maneuverable than the Wind Master. The Wind Master did not achieve much success. On the contrary, the Xuan Star Civilization frequently sought opportunities to maneuver behind the Wind Master fleet, causing considerable losses to the Wind Master fleet. In just over a year, the number of Wind Master dropped from 75 million to 60 million. However, the Xuan Star Civilization did not fare much better, with only 7 million of its 8 million warships remaining.
In Ji Wa's eyes, the human fleet had gone mad, recklessly charging towards the outer edge of space. They forcibly activated their warp drives, flying around the vortex like headless flies. Due to the spatial chaos, some human warships flew directly towards the center of the vortex, some spun in place, and some crashed into the warships next to them, bursting into bursts of fire. A few were lucky enough to escape the vortex.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Wa pursued the Wind Master one-on-one. The Wind Master no longer cared about the attacks from the Xuan Star Civilization; it seemed they had reached their final moment. Despite suffering huge losses, the Wind Master still managed to escape the vortex thanks to their sheer number. As soon as these Wind Master entered normal space, they scattered like birds and beasts, flying in all directions.
"Sir, the humans have escaped!"
"Don't worry, they've already missed the best opportunity."
A steel torrent of one hundred million warships rapidly arrived near the spatial vortex. Upon arrival, it immediately split into two parts: one part pursued the scattered Wind Master with all its might, while the other part charged directly into the vortex. After losing some warships, it quickly eliminated the Wind Master in the vortex. Then, these warships flew directly into the depths of the vortex. They chose a human planet farthest from the center of the vortex and, relying on the powerful propulsion of the warships, slowly pushed the planet out of the vortex.
"Phase one is over, Old Hu. Now we can only rest."
"Yes, the Xuan Star Civilization destroyed all of our Wind Master. Now they are salvaging our inhabited planets and large warship fragments, and I believe they will soon discover our hidden energy sphere."
"Our energy sphere has traveled over a thousand light-years. Will they be able to find it?"
"Don't worry, they definitely will. If they can't find it, they shouldn't stay in the Small Star Sector Civilization anymore."
At this moment Bi Cha was happily salvaging the fragments of the human fleet. Over the years, they had salvaged quite a few pieces of human warships, including several that were in very good condition. These were Wind Master were about to reach the depths of the vortex, distorted by the vortex's immense spatial power, and forcibly dragged out of it by the Xuan Star Civilization's warships.
Currently, Bi Cha is waiting for a human-inhabited planet. More than 50 million warships have gathered in the vortex, their engines running at full power, trying to reclaim the human-inhabited planet from the vortex bit by bit. Although Bi Cha knows that the fact that the human didn't destroy the inhabited planet means that there is little of value inside, this is just human speculation. Perhaps some useful clues can be found somewhere, especially the technology of the energy sphere.
Bi Cha also wanted to salvage the remaining five inhabited planets, but the fleet was simply powerless. Even salvaging just one was extremely difficult, moving at a snail's pace. At a distance of only 0.2 light-years from the edge of the vortex, at the current rate, it might take at least 20 years to pull the planet out.
Fortunately, the planets destroyed later did not completely disintegrate. Bi Cha has moved all nine planets with human activity to the airspace between the Mu Star Civilization and Xuan Star Civilization, and scientists from the Xuan Star Civilization have begun to carefully examine the planets.
Several of the planets were filled with frozen, stiff artificial human bodies, which were frozen in the cosmic low temperatures the instant the underground city was destroyed. The four-dimensional portals closed the moment the enemy ships were detected, and the instruments self-destructed.
