Damn!
I should never have let Rose go to the North Star.
Rose didn't want to hear Dukao's explanation.
Words can deceive, but actions cannot.
Dukao keeps saying he's doing it for China and for the planet, but all his actions ultimately come down to doing it for Deno.
Huang Ke turned his head and looked at the expressions of the two men with great interest.
It was somewhat unexpected, but also within reason.
But Huang Ke still chose to speak: "The Super Soldier Company has arrived. After the Super Soldier Company boards the ship together, the combat plan will officially begin."
Huang Ke changed the subject.
Huang Ke did not want Ducao and Rose to break off relations.
This could easily lead Dukao down an extreme path.
Huang Ke used subtle methods to ease the tension.
Both Qiangwei and Dukao realized that Huang Ke's words were a way to save face, so they both backed down and stopped arguing.
The overall situation comes first.
Whether it's Huang Ke, Du Kao, or Qiangwei, they all currently believe that this operation plan is extremely important.
The only difference is that the three of them have different approaches.
……
At the airport, the Super Soldier Company completed their boarding of the ship, followed by thousands of soldiers from the South China Sea Fleet.
The Mangdangshan is a behemoth far larger than an aircraft carrier, requiring thousands of people to work closely together, especially during combat.
After everyone boarded the ship, the next group consisted of six Xuan Nu (mysterious maidens) and two Bai Di (white emperors).
At this point, all personnel and equipment for the North Star portion of the "Second Lunar Self-Defense Operation Plan" are ready.
……
"The Mangdangshan is ready and requests takeoff."
"Later, after the other divisions' Xuan Nu fighters have completed their takeoff, the Mangdang Mountain will depart."
"clear."
Having gained experience from the previous battle, the Taotie will most likely enhance its detection capabilities, including its use of covert information and radar.
Therefore, Huang Ke set a premise for the plan.
The equipment used last time, namely the Xuan Nu unmanned combat aircraft, is considered to have lost its stealth capabilities.
The first batch of Xuan Nu unmanned combat aircraft took off as suicide wingmen to provide cover for the departure of the Mangdang Mountain.
As it turned out, Huang Ke's approach was correct.
Chapter 78 Gluttony: The Advantage Lies With Me
As it turned out, Huang Ke's considerations were correct.
The Xuan Nu unmanned combat aircraft, which departed from military airfields such as Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group, Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group, and Shenyang Aircraft Industry Group, was detected by Taotie the moment it left the atmosphere.
After the last battle, a large number of Xuan Nu unmanned combat aircraft were left near the moon.
As a spacefaring civilization with rich experience in warfare, the Taotie naturally conducted an immediate inspection and reverse engineering.
Ultimately, Taotie concluded that the Xuan Nu unmanned combat aircraft had initially achieved space-grade combat capabilities.
However, the real reason for the massive losses of the Taotie was not the performance of the Xuan Nu unmanned combat aircraft itself.
The key lies in the dark alloy coating of the Xuan Nu unmanned combat aircraft.
The primary dark alloy coating has some dark information protection capability, but it is relatively limited.
If a sufficiently powerful computer exists, in conjunction with a dark information detection radar, it is possible to crack the code.
Does the Taotie have such equipment?
not at all.
But Styx has it, Karl has it, and other higher-level civilizations under Karl's command also have it!
The Taotie King Shihao, who was in charge of this war, didn't even have to ask Karl for help. He simply found another beast-body civilization under Karl's command, the Greedy Wolf Civilization, and received technical assistance from them.
The Taotie have already deployed corresponding computer and radar equipment near the moon.
"We have spotted 24 aircraft of the same type as those that appeared in the last encounter taking off, and their target is still us."
"Should we launch a covert strike?"
Currently, the commanders of the lunar vanguard fleet are still Feng Lei and Xiong Lu, two mechanical beast-body modified warriors.
The two quickly communicated and gave instructions: "Share the coordinates, do not launch a covert attack. Our equipment may not be able to out-calculate Denno's computer. Do not expose yourselves."
Both Wind and Thunder and Buck, these two modified warriors, have a wealth of combat experience.
It is understood that space-level warfare is about exploiting technological and informational gaps.
There is no absolute generational gap in technology between the two sides.
Therefore, the factors that determine the balance of war are the difference in numbers, information, and systems.
With brand-new dark information detection equipment, the two beast-body modified warriors were quite confident.
The advantage is mine!
In terms of quantity, information, and systems, Taotie has the upper hand!
In terms of quantity, twenty-four to three hundred and thirty, Taotie wins decisively!
In terms of information, Earth knows the location of Taotie, but assumes that Taotie does not know the location of Earth's fighter jets. In reality, Taotie has everything under control. This is an absolute information gap, and Taotie wins completely!
Systemically speaking, Earth's spacecraft are slightly weaker than Taotie's ordinary warships in terms of pure combat power, and Earth's civilization has no escort ships or flagships, so Taotie wins completely!
How could we possibly lose this battle?
Feng Lei and Xiong Lu exchanged a glance, determined to completely shatter Earth's battle plan and ensure that they would never return!
Once this batch of Earth fighters is dealt with, it will be the Taotie's turn to take the initiative.
The Howling King has been urging them for a long time. If they don't act soon, they might be taken away by the Howling King's men and escorted back to the River Styx to await the judgment of Death God Karl.
……
Earth, North Star Second Military Airfield, Command and Control Room.
Command remained in Huang Ke's hands. Dukao, a war-crazed man with extensive experience in warfare, had no trust in Huang and could only watch from the sidelines, with the right to make suggestions only.
However, he was not the only one with the right to make suggestions; there were more than a dozen experienced staff officers from the Chinese military in the entire dispatch room.
Ducao had very little power in this area.
But Dukao didn't care, since he had already explained everything to the Super Soldier Squad.
To ensure the success of this battle, Dukao even brought Rena along.
"Chengfei First and Second Squadrons, head towards Lunar 030 and launch a harassing attack from the left flank."
"Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group 1 and 2, 090 direction, right flank harassment."
"Shen Fei, launch a direct frontal assault, a suicide attack!"
The three sets of instructions were issued after Huang Ke had discussed them with his military staff before the war.
In this operation, the teams from Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group, Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group, and Shenyang Aircraft Industry Group were considered non-stealth units, assuming that Taotie had already mastered the technology to break through the stealth of the primary dark alloy coating.
The real killer move lies in the Mangdangshan.
This thing is not just a simple dark alloy coating; most of the ship's hull is made of dark alloy.
For this flagship model, Ducao used up nearly a quarter of the dark metal deposits mined from the earth!
Such extravagant gestures were unprecedented, even by the Angelic Civilization.
Therefore, in terms of dark information shielding, the performance of the Mangdangshan is comparable to that of the Black Armor of the Super Soldier Corps.
Even if it were the Holy Keisha on the moon, she might not have been able to detect the approach of the Mangdang Mountain, let alone the Taotie.
There is absolutely no possibility of discovery.
Although Dukao was reluctant to admit it, the fact is that Huang Ke's command was competent, and could even be described as excellent.
The Chinese civilization is too adept at warfare.
Throughout the entire known universe, very few civilizations have been able to systematize warfare in the era of cold weapons.
After obtaining various details about interstellar warfare, the Chinese found it almost effortless and quickly developed a sound basic combat plan.
"Space-scale warfare is all about technology, information, quantity, and systems."
"Technically, while the Xuan Nu and Bai Di aircraft are slightly weaker than the Taotie, there is no absolute generational gap. However, the Mangdang Mountain is the pinnacle of our Deno civilization's combat platform manufacturing technology, and it also uses a massive amount of dark alloy."
"Technically, Earth wins hands down."
"In terms of information, Taotie thought they knew the movements of the Xuan Nu unmanned combat aircraft, but they had no idea that the real killing move was the Mangdang Mountain, as well as the six Xuan Nu, two Bai Di, two batches of super soldiers from the Super Soldier Company, plus the Blazing Sun God who was guarding the scene."
"In terms of information, Earth has won completely."
"In terms of numbers, although the two sides' fleets are vastly different, by nearly ten times, the role of super soldiers in the battle is far greater than that of warships. The super soldiers on the Mangdangshan account for half of my assets."
"In terms of the number of super soldiers, Earth is the clear winner."
"As for the combat system... the Mangdang Mountain is a solid combat platform. If it is paired with a celestial-level supercomputer, it can almost fight against the Angel's fleet. Although it does not have a celestial-level computer, the computing power of the Deno III is already overwhelming for the Taotie. In addition, there is the White Emperor, which is a guard type, and the Xuan Nu, which is a suicide attack."
"Systemically speaking, Earth wins hands down."
"Plus the arrangements I made for Lena, there's no reason for us to lose this battle!"
Dukao, a former warmonger, had a keen understanding of the war situation.
The advantage is in our hands; victory is assured!
Both sides believed they had the advantage and were certain of victory.
