Chapter 276: Su Xin's Plan

At this moment, in the combat command room.

Brewster and the others all fell into silence.

In a spacious and bright office, the various high-level officials who were also watching the live broadcast likewise fell into a long silence.

Everyone felt a sense of despair in their hearts.

Facing the Alien Spaceship that was parked in the air like a target, they had no way to deal with it.

Once the opponent started moving and attacking everywhere, wouldn't Yingjiang Country have only one path to death?

Someone suggested helplessly:

"Let's contact other countries."

"Resisting the alien invasion is not just the responsibility of Yingjiang Country, but should be a joint effort by all countries on Blue Star."

Another elderly man in military uniform gave a bitter smile:

"But what is the use of contacting others? To put it bluntly, everyone is just a target in front of the Alien Spaceship."

"It's still better than us facing it alone."

"Perhaps some countries have secret weapons? For example, Long Country; they have the scientific research genius Su Xin, so perhaps they have jointly developed some cutting-edge military equipment."

"If they really can defeat the Alien Spaceship, then what should we do in the future?"

The leading white-haired old man rubbed the corners of his eyes and said helplessly:

"Now is not the time to talk about this; let's contact others first and figure out how to defeat the aliens."

"If we cannot defeat the Alien Spaceship, we will have to become slaves to the aliens."

"There is a saying in Long Country: those who are not of our race must have a different heart. Once Blue Star falls, our days will certainly not be easy."

The meeting ended quickly.

Countries contacted each other urgently to discuss plans to deal with the Alien Spaceship.

And while they were holding a remote video conference, Iris piloted the Alien Spaceship to the next city in Yingjiang Country.

Once again, the bombardment began.

He knew that for the past hundred years, he had been kept in a Laboratory in Yingjiang Country, where many of his body tissue samples had been collected, and recently he had been besieged and captured by Yingjiang Country.

Although he had let himself be captured on purpose.

It did not hinder his hostility toward Yingjiang Country.

Moreover, Yingjiang Country was the recognized number one military power on Blue Star.

Since he wanted to give the humans of Blue Star a warning, it was naturally best to start with Yingjiang Country.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

One after another, crimson light cannons landed in the urban area, causing massive destruction and casualties.

The live broadcast footage spread to every corner of the world via television signals, bringing great panic and unease to all of humanity.

"Yingjiang Country has already admitted defeat; they don't even dare to continue attacking the opponent."

"Even the most advanced fighter squadron was crushed by the opponent, and the Medium-to-long-range Ballistic Missiles were easily intercepted; Yingjiang Country has no better means, so what else can they do but admit defeat?"

"Not to mention Yingjiang Country, the whole world combined cannot stop the Alien Spaceship."

"With the aliens openly bombing cities, Yingjiang Country remains indifferent; it seems they have indeed admitted defeat."

"Blue Star is really going to be captured."

"What about Long Country? Long Country has developed so fast in recent years; could they have some secret weapons?"

"Long Country was previously considered by many to be the world's second military power. With money in recent years, their investment in the research and development of advanced weapons must be higher; perhaps they have some undisclosed secret weapons!"

"What's more, Long Country has the God of Scientific Research, Su Xin; perhaps Su Xin and the Military have collaborated to develop some high-tech weapons?"

"Su Xin alone is stronger than all the research teams of all countries in the world combined. If he really researched military equipment, he would certainly achieve very dazzling results."

"Let's hope so!"

Some netizens who knew a little about military affairs were not very optimistic about this.

"The opponent is, after all, a spaceship capable of interstellar travel. Being able to cross the starry sky to reach Blue Star, the technological content involved is definitely not something our existing technology can compare to."

"Even though Su Xin has developed so many world-subverting products in recent years, none of them can be mentioned in the same breath as the technology contained in a spaceship; the two are too far apart."

"If there really were any results, Tianqi Group or Long Country could not keep it a secret."

"I personally think our only hope of winning is for all countries to unite and besiege them until the opponent runs out of ammunition and food."

"The opponent only has one ship; no matter how powerful it is, if it has no material supplies and energy replenishment, it cannot sustain a long-term battle."

"As long as the opponent's energy is exhausted and they cannot maintain the Energy Shield or fire light cannons, they will only be reduced to a target to be captured by various countries."

"Therefore, although I don't think Long Country has more advanced weapons, I still feel we can successfully resist the alien invasion."

"It's just that the cost will be very high."

Amidst the discussions of many netizens, another city in Yingjiang Country was quickly destroyed.

……

Long Country, Tianjing.

In the office of the biological laboratory building.

Su Xin sat in front of the computer, looking at the footage of the Alien Spaceship's wanton destruction with a grave expression.

"With Blue Star's current level of technology, I'm afraid even the Energy Shield cannot be broken."

"And those missiles cannot hit the target."

"Perhaps only by relying on my Godspeed Ability can I possibly defeat the opponent."

"However, the opponent is in the air..."

Su Xin frowned in distress.

His Godspeed Ability could not make him fly; after all, the reaction force he endured was normal, and he could not leap thousands of meters high.

If I were to take an airplane or other means of transport, in the event that I was hit by a long-range shot from the opponent, I might not necessarily be able to dodge in time.

If I were to use methods like exhaling or long-range punches, the lethality would also be unlikely to be stronger than the cruise missiles of Yingjiang Country's cutting-edge fighter jets.

Only by using close-range punching methods, or by using throwing weapons, would it be possible to destroy the opponent's Energy Shield.

"As expected, my abilities still have flaws!"

"In the future, I must find a way to prepare a flight method for myself..."

Su Xin thought for a moment, and quickly pulled his thoughts back to the current alien invasion event.

"I must think of a way to lure him down, or use a way of throwing something to smash him down."

"The former has too much risk, and the difficulty is also high."

"The latter seems very difficult to achieve as well."

Su Xin picked up his phone, just preparing to contact Hao Zude, but discovered that the other party happened to be calling via video, so he answered it directly.

"Director Hao, is it about the aliens?"

"Yes, the leaders are currently in a meeting with other countries to discuss it, and they told me to come over and ask you, to see if you have any methods?"

"So, you are all not confident?"

"Yes, completely not confident."

Hao Zude said with a heavy expression.

"Even Yingjiang Country is at a loss; our military strength is on the same level as theirs, and even if we join forces, it is impossible to defeat the Alien Spaceship."

"Moreover, some of our experts have also urgently discussed it, and finally reached the conclusion that even if the whole world unites, we are no match for the aliens."

"A spaceship capable of crossing the starry sky must have an energy system at least at the level of Small Nuclear Fusion; wanting to exhaust their energy through combat is almost impossible, or even if we could, the losses would inevitably be extremely heavy."

"More importantly, we currently have no means to detect the existence of the opponent's spaceship; even if the opponent's energy is truly about to be exhausted, as long as they fly to some place and hide, it will be very difficult for us to find them."

"In addition, the opponent's spaceship is very fast; from leaving Sotu City to appearing in Mier City, only thirty-some seconds passed in between. Calculating it, its movement speed is at least eight Mach, several times faster than our fastest fighter jets."

"Fight, we can't win."

"Chase, we can't catch up."

"Find, we can't find them."

"Facing such an enemy, any known means on Blue Star are useless; no matter how many people or how much ammunition we have, it is all empty."

"Therefore, we can only place our hope on you now, to see if you have any trump cards, or if you can hurry to develop some products to improve our combat power as soon as possible."

"The fate of Blue Star depends on you."

"Sorry, saying this seems to be somewhat forcing you, pushing the pressure of saving the world onto you alone, but... we really have no better way."

Hao Zude looked guilty.

Su Xin thought for a while and said:

"I do have a method, I dare not guarantee whether it will work, but I can try."

"Tell me!"

Hao Zude's eyes lit up immediately.

"Help me forge a few bullet-shaped Short Rods, about two fingers thick and half a meter long; they don't need to carry a propulsion system, but they must be equipped with Artificial Intelligence guidance and Laser Guidance System, as well as Sky Net satellite guidance, used for fine-tuning the direction."

"What is this for?"

Hao Zude was stunned for a moment, then asked in confusion.

"I have a powerful Kinetic Energy Launcher, the power is very great, but the accuracy is not very good, so it needs the cooperation of a guidance system to be sure of hitting the alien spaceship."

"Because it is a kinetic energy weapon, the flight speed of the Short Rod will be very fast, definitely far exceeding twenty Mach; the Black Barrier phenomenon will be very strong, and a single guidance system cannot guarantee accuracy, so at least a combination of multiple guidance systems is needed."

"In addition, the structure must also be guaranteed to be sturdy, otherwise it might disintegrate in the air, and then there would be no way to hit the target."

"After these are ready, we still have to find a way to lure the target over, otherwise if the distance is too far, I cannot guarantee hitting the opponent."

Hao Zude fell into deep thought.

It was not that he was considering whether to agree to Su Xin's request, but considering whether it could be completed.

Although Su Xin's few requests sounded very simple, to actually produce them according to these requirements was by no means easy to achieve.

First of all.

At a flight speed far exceeding twenty Mach, adjusting the direction of the Short Rod through a guidance system is a very difficult thing.

After all, at such a fast speed, the Short Rod will rub against the atmosphere at high speed to generate high temperatures, subsequently producing an ionization phenomenon, forming a thick Plasma Cluster around it.

This kind of Plasma Cluster can distort light and shield electromagnetic waves; wanting to detect information from the outside world is almost impossible.

This phenomenon is called the Black Barrier.

The full name is Dark Barrier.

As the name implies, under the shroud of the Black Barrier, all kinds of information exchange inside and outside are shielded.

The faster the speed, the thicker the shielding layer.

The object and the outside world cannot see each other clearly, and various signals cannot be transmitted or received; communication, guidance, detection, etc., will all be severely interfered with or interrupted, just like being shrouded in darkness.

Why do many people say that the process of astronauts returning to Earth is the most dangerous?

It is precisely because of the Black Barrier phenomenon.

If there is no sufficiently powerful communication technology to break through the interference of the Black Barrier, and one cannot timely obtain information such as the spaceship's position, speed, and attitude, and cannot timely adjust the spaceship's attitude and trajectory, it may lead to the danger of the spaceship deviating from the intended trajectory, or even disintegrating or crashing.

Why is the development difficulty of hypersonic missiles so high?

The Black Barrier phenomenon is also one of the main reasons.

If the guidance and communication technology within the Black Barrier zone cannot be solved, the launched hypersonic missile is just a chicken rib, which can only bomb randomly and has no strategic value at all.

Why is the threat of hypersonic missiles so great?

It is also because of the Black Barrier.

It can absorb electromagnetic waves, making it very difficult for the attacked to detect its existence, let alone accurately calculate its movement trajectory to intercept it.

The faster the speed, the more intense the Black Barrier phenomenon.

The Short Rod, wrapped in a Plasma Cluster, far exceeds Mach 20; at this speed, the Black Barrier phenomenon is something no country in the world can solve.

Furthermore, even if the Black Barrier problem were solved, precisely adjusting the direction of the Short Rod during high-speed flight would be extremely difficult to achieve.

It is just like a car traveling at over 100 kilometers per hour on a highway; even a slightly large turn of the steering wheel could cause the vehicle to flip.

For a Short Rod flying at speeds far exceeding Mach 20, the precision required to adjust its direction allows for not even a sliver of error.

Otherwise.

A difference of a single line will lead to a discrepancy of a thousand miles.

In addition, for a Short Rod flying at such high speeds, the requirements for material strength and structural design to ensure it does not disintegrate are also extremely high.

In general, the matter of fine-tuning the direction of the Short Rod seems simple, but it actually involves an extremely high level of technology.

Whether it is the communication technology to break through the high-intensity Black Barrier, or super-strong computing power, or extremely precise guidance technology, or perhaps top-tier material and structural design.

Every single item is a world-class challenge.
