Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones.

Chapter 252 Failed Strategy

In the vast starry sky, Li Qingsong's fleet slowed down and quickly approached Planet No. 2.

He clearly saw that during this period, the garrison fleets of Planets 1, 2, and 3 remained obediently around the planets, showing no signs of taking the initiative to attack.

This made Li Qingsong sigh softly.

If the fleet of the Haveler civilization took the initiative to attack and come to a place far away from the planet to fight a field battle with him, then perhaps his weaknesses could be compensated a little.

After all, once they left the planet, the Harviler Civilization fleet's supply would undoubtedly be somewhat weakened. At the same time, they might even be able to raid their supply points and seize some of their supplies, alleviating their own shortage.

This is also one of the reasons why Li Qingsong keeps cursing.

But now it appears that this strategy has failed.

The leadership of the Haveli civilization didn't seem to be overwhelmed by anger, but remained calm and maintained control over the civilization...

In this case, there is no other way but to fight head-on.

"I don't know why you suddenly changed your attitude towards me and suddenly became malicious towards me, forcing me to come and fight this.

But it doesn’t matter, once I win, I’ll know the reason…”

Li Qingsong quickly adjusted the fleet's layout, concentrating the living, supply, and transport ships in the center of the fleet while also constructing a comprehensive defense system. A large number of combat ships gathered around the fleet, ready for battle.

Li Qingsong saw that among the approximately 150 million warships of the Haveler civilization, an average of about 40 were stationed around each planet.

The remaining 30 warships are scattered around some larger dwarf planets, or serve as mobile forces in space. The overall combat power deployment is relatively balanced.

At this point, their strategic intention, namely to target Planet Two, was clear, so the Harvil civilization began a large-scale mobilization of its forces.

A large number of warships were mobilized from surrounding planets and gathered around Planet Two. In a short period of time, the number of warships of various types stationed on Planet Two skyrocketed to approximately 80.

Space warfare was like this. Large-scale fleet maneuvers between the two sides could not be concealed and were extremely clear to the other side, making surprise attacks essentially non-existent.

Unless it is a small-scale fleet. But a small-scale fleet has limited combat power and cannot break through the defense of a large planet.

It cannot be said that conspiracies and tricks are useless here, but they are not very useful after all, and they will eventually come down to confrontation on the front battlefield.

As both sides were on high alert, the distance between the two fleets was getting closer and closer.

In the end, Li Qingsong stopped all non-combat spacecraft, such as aerospace motherships, about 20 million kilometers away from Planet No. 80, and left about warships for guarding. The remaining warships were assembled together, carrying tens of millions of unmanned warships, as well as countless minesweepers, minelayers, missile ships, artillery batteries, spy satellites, armed satellites, laser artillery batteries and other unmanned combat forces, and quickly headed towards Planet No. .

The war broke out in an instant.

Even though the two sides were still millions of kilometers apart, countless light shields illuminated, covering all warships and larger unmanned combat facilities. In an instant, it was as if tens of millions of stars had appeared in space. Energy cannons fired instantly, and countless projectiles, which could be considered "ultra-micronized nuclear bombs," rushed forward like a swarm of bees at a speed of hundreds of kilometers per second.

High-energy lasers crisscrossed the space, while countless mines lurked in secret, always waiting to deliver a fatal blow to the opponent.

A large number of spy satellites are scattered in the dark space, doing their best to conceal their presence, like a pair of eyes, trying their best to detect all situations on the battlefield;
Li Qingsong controlled more than 2000 million clones in the combat control room, and controlled the combat of the spacecraft in front in real time through long-distance communication mode. At the same time, there were several times more clones acting as human computers, lying in the lounge doing nothing, and contributing their brain power for Li Qingsong to use, think about the battlefield situation and make decisions immediately.

Yes, the controllers of the 80 manned warships that Li Qingsong sent to the front line are all staying in the rear.

At the same time, Li Qingsong also knew that the manned warships sent to the battlefield by the Haveler civilization also had no soldiers operating them.

Their operators were also in the rear.

In addition to these manned warships, the Wukong AI was also operating at full capacity at this moment. Countless supercomputers were working at full capacity, coordinating with the truly unmanned warships and the tactical Wukong versions within various unmanned combat facilities, fully mobilizing the unmanned combat forces on the battlefield.

As soon as the war began, Li Qingsong keenly realized that the technological level of the Haveler civilization was indeed beyond his own.

Their warships surpassed their own in every aspect, and even their unmanned combat capabilities were superior.

But at this moment on the battlefield, Li Qingsong was not at a disadvantage.

The reason is simple. Li Qingsong has more manned warships! And on the battlefield, manned warships are the main force.

No matter how many unmanned combat forces there are, they are only auxiliary.

Although the Haveler civilization has deployed 80 manned warships on Planet No. 40, only half of them, about , are now deployed on the battlefield.

Through in-depth research on the war mode of strong nuclear civilizations after mastering long-distance communication technology, Li Qingsong knew that it was most likely not that the Haveler civilization did not want to invest more, but that it was unable to do so.

Also based on the model of remote-controlled manned warships, what limits the force deployed on the battlefield is no longer the number of warships, but the number of soldiers.

No matter how many manned warships there are, there must be enough qualified soldiers to operate them.

"To operate these 40 warships at this moment, based on the human factor, it would require the equivalent of 5000 million human warriors.

But warriors also need to be rotated. High-intensity mental exercise won't last long before fatigue sets in, and it's impossible to sustain. At least three rotations are needed to keep up the rotation.

Looking at it this way... the number of qualified warriors possessed by the Haveler civilization, compared to normal humans, is basically equivalent to about 1.5 million human warriors.

Judging from the industrial strength and scale of civilization demonstrated by the Haveli civilization, compared with humans, it is basically equivalent to a population of 3000 billion.

In other words, the ratio of frontline soldiers to the total population is about 1 to 2000. This is basically a very good ratio."
