In the eyes of the Imperial people, this situation was something they had never experienced before and could not understand at all. At first, everyone thought it was a new virus spread by the people on Earth - maybe this plane had been discovered, but Velen searched After reading a lot of information on the earth, he found no cases that could cause such symptoms. On the contrary, as he investigated, he found that what was happening was more and more like the descriptions of nuclear radiation on the earth. (.)
But Willen also understands that although nuclear radiation can produce similar symptoms, if it is specifically applied to war, it is not more economical than viruses. If people in the area have the ability to contaminate with radioactive materials, it is better to just drop nuclear bombs. It's practical If it weren't for the AI ??specially spread by Carmel, it might be impossible for Velen to figure out this problem in three to five years.
The root cause of this phenomenon is indeed radiation, but the possibility of man-made radiation is very small, because the radiation range is so large that it can be said to be spread throughout every inch of the planet, and the distribution is quite even - if the earth is caused by Military "poison", such as spreading buried nuclear waste all over the planet. Even if it is not discovered during the entire spreading process, it will always show a certain distribution tendency. For example, there will definitely be relatively more on land, but there is no need to spread it on the ocean - - But judging from the actual situation, even the oceans on this planet are not spared. Groups of fish and shrimp corpses can be seen everywhere in the oceans and fresh water. There can only be one culprit with such power - that is from The sun in the sky.
In the real universe, radiation is a very common phenomenon. However, on those planets where life can survive, a large amount of radiation is blocked by the atmosphere-the ionosphere blocks most of the radiation from the sun and the universe. It can be said that it is common knowledge on earth, but in the empire, it is obviously knowledge that no one understands.
Because the closed nature of the empire plane is man-made, and man-made construction will definitely consider the cost, which makes the atmosphere of these planets naturally thinner than that of the earth (the earth's atmosphere is more than a thousand kilometers, in fact, it is above 50 kilometers. It is the ionosphere range. The density of the atmosphere in this range is extremely sparse, but in the eyes of the Imperial people, those spaces are meaningless), so even if they deliberately leave a margin, the thickness of the entire atmosphere will definitely not reach that of the earth. This kind of scale has no limit at all, so the ionosphere of the Imperial people is naturally relatively weak.
The problems caused by this kind of weakness may not have been noticed by the people of the Empire in the past - the exposure to slightly more radiation, within a certain range, is just an increase in the chance of cancer. The Empire originally expected the level to be worse, let alone cancer. , there may be no cure for accidental trauma and wound infection, so they may not have noticed this at all. Generally speaking, if an ordinary Imperial person can live to be fifty or sixty years old, it is considered a long life¡ª¡ª On Earth, many people will retire at this age and truly begin to "enjoy their old age."
But because of this war, because the plane continues to have a lot of space, it is inevitable that the entire planet's volume will be compressed again as the space is cut - in addition to the shrinkage of space, this cut will also take away many other things. layer of gas, and the entire movement was quite large, finally exceeding the original stability limit of the atmosphere - as a result, the ionosphere could no longer completely block high-energy rays, solar storms crazily poured into the dense atmosphere, and part of the energy carried by the charged ions was The air absorbs and then releases it in the form of light, forming the magnificent aurora scenery. At the same time, there are still some remaining high-speed particles that completely penetrate the atmosphere, like cannonballs from the sun, mercilessly heading toward the ground. Target bombardment - for the basic tissues and cells of life, these high-speed particles are no different from a hail of bullets - DNA chains are interrupted, normal proteins are denatured, and orderly life activities are terminated All this is reflected on the macroscopic level , which is acute radiation sickness on a planet-wide scale.
Of course, the solution to this problem is not difficult - just "return" the space and restore the original thickness of the atmosphere, or simply abandon the planet and relocate the entire planet - but the problem is not just that simple.
Because this planet is the closest to the front line, the empire has been using it as an exit to connect to the magic circle before this - that is to say, all the troops in the plane, the "sunshine" they get and the air they breathe , all come from this plane - it is precisely for this reason that when the empire noticed the abnormality, it immediately cut off all the lighting arrays temporarily. Even so, some people still developed symptoms. Fortunately, the exposure time was not long, The situation is not very serious, otherwise, the empire may suffer the biggest blow in history due to this strange combination of circumstances - even the entire army may be annihilated.
Because of this series of reasons, the Imperial Army had no choice but to temporarily terminate the plan to expand the space.?¡ªIf expansion is necessary, it can only be cut and transmitted from further open planes in sequence. The loss of magic will be immeasurable. If the empire really intends to do this, then the magic that can be used for combat on earth will Even less, which probably means that the Empire's actions on Earth will have to slow down - however this is impossible. Doing so at such a critical moment is tantamount to giving the people of Earth a crucial buffer period. .
Since we can't retreat, we can only move forward - even standing still and maintaining the current size of the army is intolerable. In recent days, the increasingly tenacious resistance of the people on earth has shown that they are gradually adapting to this war. If the empire cannot quickly expand its results at this time, it may be difficult to find similar opportunities in the future - for the empire, organizing a large-scale attack is already imperative.
¡¡
The billionaires have discussed carefully, and everyone agrees that there will be one biggest difficulty in this attack, and that is the Earth's weapons of mass destruction.
With so many prisoners in this war, it can be said that the empire now has a very deep understanding of the earth. It is no longer like during the first attack, when it could not even understand what a gun was, let alone bombs, lasers, and atomic bombs. Perhaps it is because of the deep impression of the previous losses that the empire has been trying to prevent the earthlings from using such weapons until now. For example, they try their best to engage in melee combat with the earthlings in order to make the other side take advantage of them. At the same time, After every attack, no matter what kind of results were achieved, they retreated decisively, not allowing the people on earth to have any chance to counterattack. It is precisely because of these scruples that the empire still does not have a stable base on the earth. When faced with a large-scale coalition magic force, they always give priority to avoidance, rather than choosing to fight to the death with the opponent on earth.
In the early stage of the offensive, the empire's use of this tactic can be said to have far more advantages than disadvantages. Hundreds of millions of people were spread equally across the global battlefield. The split strategy not only gave full play to the empire's magic and numerical advantages, It also avoids being seized by the Earthlings and kills them with one strike, destroying the production order of the Earth to the greatest extent and at the same time protecting themselves better However, this tactic also has obvious disadvantages, that is, it can only Attack, cannot be annihilated - because there is no real foothold on the earth, no matter how serious the losses the earth people suffer, they can be repaired after the empire withdraws its troops. The empire's attack is like a timed disease to the earth, and the earth people It only feels uncomfortable for a while during an attack, but as the frequency increases, the ability to tolerate this kind of discomfort will be developed.
In the final analysis, the reason why the empire launched the attack was because the emperor was wary of Carmel's space technology. The empire was not here to cause damage to the people on earth - so there must be a decisive battle, like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves. Completely wipe out the resistance of the entire earth - the accident caused by cutting space was just a trigger that led to this battle.
At present, there are three main ways to use "big killers" in the region. One is to use the earth's traditional weapon systems, such as missiles and aircraft, to hit the target through launch. The second is to locate the ground coordinates from space and then directly It is launched with an electromagnetic gun, and the third method is carried by magic troops and directly transported to the target area with magic to detonate. It is similar to a remote-controlled bomb. It can be said that the empire is currently unable to intervene in these three methods (aircraft missiles are too fast and cannot be used at all). Unable to intercept, we can only find a way to locate it during the launch phase through prophecy magic and destroy it before launch. Due to the limitations of the space environment, it is difficult for the Imperial people to fight there. As for magic, it is even more difficult to guard against), which gives the Empire an opportunity to attack. Planning presented significant obstacles.
But since it is a war, there is absolutely no reason for smooth sailing. Although obstacles are obstacles, they are not completely insurmountable. Although the earth's defense is tight, it is far from impeccable. Those industrial areas on the ground, magic power plants , is still considered a weak link in defense and can contain a considerable part of the coalition forces. At the same time, various underground cities also need garrison care. In this way, the mobile forces that the coalition forces can use are also relatively limited. Finally, the most important point is, The number of troops that the empire has prepared is no longer like the one that could be solved by a wave of bombings in the Battle of New York. Now the empire is fully capable of fighting on three fronts: space, ground, and underground. All billionaires are determined , even if it is paved with corpses, a road to victory must be paved for the empire.
