Breaking point

  Zhang Yuan looked at his computer screen and thought, this guy is actually planning the internal structure of the planetary fortress!

  No matter how small a planet is, it can easily accommodate billions of people. The vast majority of the population will live in the underground cities around the world, and the underground space of a battle star has too much room for development. It can be built one on top of another like high-rise buildings.

  Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "Our planet has been planned by scientists for a long time. It will be very comfortable to live with a population of one billion. It is not impossible to have more people, but the comfort level will decrease."

  "Since we have not yet achieved serious artificial gravity, we plan to build a circular underground global orbit near the equator of the entire planet. The underground city community can rotate in the orbit, equivalently simulating gravity, which sounds quite complicated. Bar?"

  Xiao Zhao was stunned when he heard this: "That's really quite complicated!"

  "Actually, it's not bad. We have had such technology for a long time, but the amount of work is a bit larger. Our aerogel material can make the entire urban community very light, equivalent to a city on a train! In addition, the entire The radius of the planet is large enough, and as long as the angular velocity is very, very small, gravity can be simulated equivalently..."

  At this moment, a diplomat hurried into the room door with a message.

  The moment he appeared, everyone who was discussing stopped talking.

  His voice was trembling a little: "Everyone... the response from the Ramblers Alliance is out!"

  Suddenly, some people who were taking a nap on the table because they were too tired all raised their heads.

  The diplomat's voice was a little trembling: "... They strongly condemned the barbaric behavior of the new human civilization, and believed that the military exercises of the new human civilization threatened the security of their base camp, so they will send a large number of troops to our border Wire!"

  "No, this group of troops is almost here!"

  A video was displayed on the big screen in the center of the conference room. It was the executive of the Ramblers Alliance, screaming. This pointy-headed alien is obviously very angry, waving his limbs and angrily denouncing the new human civilization.

  Then a large number of armies attacked and began to approach the border of the new human civilization.

  The number of troops is not very large. There are only three aircraft carrier-class ships, but this is the last straw that breaks the camel's back!

  Seeing this, there was silence in the room. Even Xiao Zhao, who had enjoyed the discussion with Zhang Yuan at the beginning, lost his expression and sat there in a daze.

  At this time, people were really panicking, and began to wonder if they really wanted to "retreat"... It was as if this deterrent campaign had completely failed.

  The Walkers are a powerful force composed of more than twenty fourth-level civilizations and an unknown number of third-level civilizations. They are much more powerful than a single "Apollo". They only have twenty or thirty battle stars. How can they fight? ah! It's like beating an egg against a rock.

  It's still too late to retreat now.

  Next door, Xiao Zhao's chest was rising and falling, and he kept taking deep breaths, in a state of confusion. This young man who has always been very calm is really panicking. He is not only panicking about his own life, but also the lives of all the soldiers and everyone here! They are not afraid of fighting, but there is absolutely no need to fight a losing war.

  Zhang Yuan wiped the sweat from his face, took a deep breath, and said coldly: "Don't panic yet!"

  "The other party's behavior, ahem, is expected...it's actually quite normal."

  His words instantly brought most of the people present back to their senses and their eyes moved over.

  "Think about it carefully, everyone. Even if 'Apollo Civilization' is a part of the Ramblers Alliance, it is impossible for the other party to directly admit it..."

  "Will the other party admit, oh, you guessed it right, we will retreat now? Impossible! Therefore, it is natural for the 'Rambler Alliance' to send troops. It seems a bit strange that the other party does not send troops."

  "The Ramblers have many enemies. The current interstellar situation is so chaotic. If the Ramblers Alliance acts too weakly, it will easily lose control and be attacked by a group..."

  "So their actions are within our expectations and there is no need to panic."

  If you think about it carefully, these words make sense.

  Soon, those present were back to discussing the current format.

  Captain Feng cleared his throat. In fact, what Zhang Yuan said had already been discussed clearly in the past, but these new young people didn't know it. She said directly: "First, the Ramblers Alliance is probably just sending troops on a fake basis. They are not willing to make the situation too big because of this matter..."

  "Second, the battle stars of the Apollo civilization are still approaching and are not frightened by our planet's nemesis... This is also a fact."

  "There are two possibilities for not being frightened by the planet nemesis: they analyzed that we do not have such technological strength, it is just a disguise..."

  "Impossible!" said an expert: "We have no possibility of intelligence leakage. The other party can only guess, but cannot be sure."

  "So..." Captain Feng continued: "The Apollo civilization may have been frightened, but they were not willing to accept it, or maybe because of some pressure, they could only continue... to pretend to be fat, and to We are the same."

  "If the Apollo Civilization and the Ramblers Alliance are really the same faction, this is likely to be the last deterrent."

  "If we withdraw, they will win! If we don't withdraw, they may not dare to fight!"

  "Yes, that's it!" A general yelled with a red face and veins on his forehead jumping: "Barefooted people are not afraid of those wearing boots. I suggest that we project the second planet nemesis again! For counter-deterrence!"

  "Don't! Don't do this yet."

  Zhang Yuan quickly stopped the general, "Lao Xia, don't be in a hurry. If you rush to project the second planet nemesis, it will only show that we are a little out of control and are trying to force the opponent to retreat."

  "Actually, he is just a soft persimmon, and it is easy for others to see through him."

  "Don't rush to intimidate!"

  "It's enough to say harsh words once. If you say harsh words one after another, they are no longer harsh words... Just staying silent like this is a better choice."

  The general knocked on the table hard, then forced himself to sit down, and said in a low voice: "So, when can the second planet nemesis be used to have the best effect?"

  Zhang Yuan frowned, unable to think of a good idea for a moment.

  Let's think together and analyze the current situation carefully, trying to find a breaking point.
