Chapter 221 Weapons Production Plan
More than ten minutes later, more civilized senior officials concentrated in the captain's office to discuss related issues.
Although people were very lucky to intercept the first batch of missiles, who knows if there is a follow-up second batch and third batch.
In addition, the matter is so big that even some civilians have some speculations in their minds. Many people have seen the nuclear flash of the nuclear bomb, and the nuclear fusion engine is urgently activated, and the Earth Age has entered a state of motion. These traces cannot be covered up.
The mothership is accelerating slowly, unlike as it was originally just a fixed target, but the consequence is that it has temporarily disconnected from the underground base on the planet, and the long carbon nanorope has been retracted, and there is no way to exchange matters or personnel.
The startup of the nuclear engine is consuming a large amount of helium-3 resources, which makes Zhang Yuan feel distressed. Fortunately, humans have found uranium mines on the surface, otherwise there may be an energy crisis and die on this planet.
After the brief meeting, Captain Zhao delivered a serious speech in front of the TV station. There is nothing to hide about possible wars. War is about to start. We can't hide from the people who the enemy is, right?
"I officially announce that I have entered an emergency wartime state!"
"...We must be vigilant enough to this unknown enemy, and even carry out the same reciprocal revenge!"
"When seeking peace by struggle, peace will exist; when seeking peace by compromise, peace will perish!"
Zhang Yuan stood in the audience, and he was sending a text message to comfort his wife.
"Yes, no one was injured or killed, but the spacecraft was made into a hole by high-dimensional fragments. There was nothing else... I'm fine too. There was no big loss. Don't worry, no follow-up missiles have been launched for the time being."
"I don't need to go to the battlefield, don't worry."
But then again, people really don’t know what this enemy is!
I don't even know the other person's appearance.
Some people say that there is an unknown technological civilization hidden underground, while others say that it is an out-of-control artificial intelligence that has extinct civilization!
Everyone knows that this step cannot be retreated at all. Even if you don’t have too many weapons and have no ability to resist, taking one step back will be hell!
People simply have no ability to leave this galaxy, nor can they surrender to each other.
The noisy people were excited, and some were still in a state of concealment. Such a big emergency happened suddenly and there was no time to react.
After the speech, Captain Zhao walked down from the stage and held a second emergency meeting.
Several senior officials just sat in their seats without saying a word. All kinds of reporters who wanted to interview were temporarily driven out by the soldiers.
After the noise, there is silence.
"Now ordinary people already know this. The war mobilization work also requires trouble for the Propaganda Department, which not only keeps people's minds stable, but also ensures strong fighting spirit... In particular, our industrial capacity is insufficient, and the production of weapons and equipment may sacrifice the current quality of life."
"There is no problem with this, everyone should be able to understand it." A leader of the Propaganda Department nodded.
Seeing that everyone's emotions stabilized slightly, Zhao Qingfeng said with a solemn expression: "I'll ask you first, we tilt most of the resources and compress most of the people's quality of life. How long will it take to get space weapons, including nuclear bombs?"
In the face of a life-and-death crisis, all industrial development plans can only be temporarily put on hold.
One of the engineers gritted his teeth: "We have discovered a relatively good uranium mine on the surface. If we tilt a huge part of the resources, six thousand centrifuges can be produced within half a year..."
"In one year, the atomic bomb can be detonated and the hydrogen bomb can be detonated within two years! The technical difficulties are not great, but there are still some difficulties in industry."
"The shortest is also nine months."
I heard that it would take more than nine months, and the conference room suddenly became lively again.
Nine months are too long, even a bit too long. No one knows when the other party will explode!
Maybe a few days later, a large number of nuclear bombs will be launched!
However, in this kind of cosmic war, nuclear bombs are already the most conventional weapons. High-explosive bombs, tnts, are simply ridiculous things.
According to the interstellar wars that broke out within human civilization, there are three most conventional weapons: missiles, lasers, and electromagnetic guns.
Of course, there is no need to say more about missiles. They are basically nuclear warheads, hydrogen bombs, and helium-3 bombs. They are powerful and slow. They are suitable for short-term handovers, but they are easily intercepted.
Lasers focus on defense. Small ones can protect against small drones, medium ones can protect against shells, and large ones can be deployed in space to attack and boost rocket anti-missiles. However, with the current industrial capabilities of the new civilization, it is very possible to manufacture laser weapons in the short term. Because laser weapons require some special crystals, these crystals are products of condensed matter physics and are not easy to be preserved for a long time and cannot be brought from the earth.
It is not possible to truly create similar crystals overnight.
The manufacturing difficulty of electromagnetic guns is slightly smaller than that of lasers, but the power of electromagnetic guns is proportional to the speed of shells. The faster the shells are, the higher the requirements for the entire weapon and equipment, especially the long acceleration pipeline, which is not too many for a few kilometers or dozens of kilometers!
Therefore, the tonnage and volume of electromagnetic guns are often very huge... This is one of the reasons why the Earth Age did not carry these space weapons.
One of the military experts said: "I think that weapons such as missiles and small electromagnetic guns can be used as the first target... First of all, there must be sufficient defense means to counter these ultra-high-speed missiles from the enemy. The speed of electromagnetic shells must reach at least 100 kilometers per second to have a sufficient interception success rate."
Zhang Yuan nodded, "I understand... I will be responsible for the research on nuclear bombs and electromagnetic guns."
"So, what about the poisonous gas bomb? It's like a biological weapon?" Captain Zhao asked.
"No, the feasibility is too small."
The talking was a biologist, "We have no research on the life of this planet at all, and we don't know what poisonous gas they fear... Some gases in the atmosphere are toxic gases themselves, which can kill most of the earth's bacteria, and will also react chemically with the poisonous gas and neutralize them directly."
"And, there is a vast planet below, not as big as our spacecraft... Various typhoons themselves have strong dilution capabilities. How many poison gas do we need to create to poison the creatures hiding in the cave? The current productivity is impossible even if it is made for a hundred years."
When everyone heard this fact, they were at a loss, and even Zhang Yuan had no good idea.
His fingers gently tapped the tabletop and frowned. The power of human beings is so bad at present. It is hard for a good cook to cook without rice. No matter how smart he is, he will never come up with any good idea.
