Chapter 291 Comprehensive Cleanup

"Report! Asteroid 173356 found suspected pterosaur traces!"

"Fleet No. 7 is out!"

"Yes!"

The next moment, the soldiers who were still laughing and joking immediately became serious. They all looked tense and lined up in neat rows to leave the base and enter their respective warships.

The actions were very precise, and there was no mistake even by the most stringent operating regulations. The conversation was conducted in full accordance with the regulations, with a clear tone and no extra nonsense.

Fleet No. 7, with a total of 16 warships, set off immediately. With the cooperation of the automated combat system and unmanned warships, it took only seven hours, excluding the time for rushing, to annihilate a total of 6 pterosaurs lurking on the asteroid.

The fleet returned, and even when leaving the warships and entering the base, the soldiers still looked serious and serious, and the team was lined up neatly without any disarray.

But once they crossed the horizontal line of the rest area, the originally neat team immediately became disorganized, and loud noises immediately emerged.

"Fuck, it's so satisfying! Did you see that? I killed two people with one missile!"

"Don't talk nonsense, that's your own credit? Can you find the coordinates without my information?"

"Come on, if we hadn't surrounded and squeezed the pterosaur space, would you have found the opportunity?"

"The captain is here!"

Someone shouted, and the next moment, the noisy soldiers immediately stood at attention, their bodies straight as a benchmark.

The majestic captain came over and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, good job."

The captain left, and the soldiers scattered again.

"Let's go, let's eat."

...

Under the blessing of the entire war system, this group of incoming pterosaurs seemed to have truly become people's prey.

There are many cases of defeating the majority with the minority and the strong with the weak. Even before the people on the planet felt much of the breath of war, it was only less than five years, and the human government had already announced the end of the first phase of the battle.

This means that a large number of pterosaurs have been wiped out, and the number of pterosaurs has dropped to less than 10% of the total, and most of them are lurking.

What is needed in the future is to search and eliminate them bit by bit.

Human civilization will use tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of probes and unmanned warships to thoroughly and comprehensively search every corner of the solar system, search out every hidden pterosaur, and annihilate it, completely eliminating the threat to human spacecraft.

This is a very long process, at least it will take decades, and there is no rush.

At this moment, the envoys of the three major civilizations were full of bitterness.

It was really unexpected that humans could solve the pterosaur cluster so easily, and even the planet itself was not threatened at all, and the strength of civilization was almost not damaged.

On the other hand, our own civilization suffered heavy losses...

The Fix civilization and the Motan civilization are still struggling to persist, and there is no sign of victory for the time being. The Yuanshan civilization has already taken the advantage, but the advantage is not big enough, and a full counterattack will take time.

As a result, the comparison of civilization strength is unbalanced, and it is unknown what changes will happen to the Yuanshan star field in the future.

"The galaxy is so vast that it is not easy to thoroughly search and eliminate pterosaurs. I hope this process can delay the progress of human civilization..."

With this expectation, the messengers of the three major civilizations began to continue observing human civilization.

But something even more unexpected happened.

"What? Humans have mobilized 10 million unmanned warships and 50,000 manned warships, 1 billion reconnaissance satellites and 20 million interstellar artillery and interstellar missile bases to surround the entire asteroid belt?"

Faced with this news, the messengers of the three major civilizations widened their eyes at the same time.

What a joke!

The asteroid belt of the solar system is relatively small, but it also has a length of about 1 billion kilometers, a width and thickness of tens of millions of kilometers, and tens of millions of various celestial bodies!

Under normal circumstances, isn't the search and elimination a bit by bit search?

Now, you humans have directly surrounded the asteroid belt?

You are not searching and eliminating, but pulling a net to catch fish, right?

Or the kind that spreads a net in ten directions, leaving no dead corners, and catches everything in one net.

This kind of industrial strength... can a second-level civilization really do it? Is human civilization really a second-level civilization?

They won't quietly become a third-level civilization, right?

The search and suppression of the asteroid belt lasted for about two years. Afterwards, the human government announced that this war had annihilated a total of about 8 million pterosaurs, and the asteroid belt had been cleared.

After that, after leaving a sufficient number of fixed observation bases and combat forces to ensure that no pterosaurs could break into the asteroid belt again, the search and suppression of planetary rings, Kuiper belts, and interplanetary space was launched simultaneously.

The search and suppression method of human civilization is simple and crude, and even has no technical content.

A large number of warships, unmanned warships, probes, etc. were thrown into space without any money, forming a large net together, screening the interstellar space bit by bit.

Humans did not pay any attention to the whereabouts of the pterosaurs, did not speculate where they might be hiding, did not calculate where the key space nodes were, and did not pay attention to the conscious harassment and deception of the pterosaurs based on their fighting instincts.

Humans just follow their own plans and screen everything without leaving any blind spots.

Any conspiracy or trickery is useless in this way.

No matter how strong your concealment is, it can only be established under the premise of insufficient observation density. I am placing a detector every tens of thousands of kilometers at this moment. At such a close distance, can you still hide?

Dream on.

In the end, humans pushed the search line beyond the Kuiper Belt.

Further out is the vast ecliptic scattered disk and Oort cloud area, where a large number of pterosaurs may still be hidden.

For this part of the area, Han Yang has no better solution. After all, it is too vast.

All Han Yang can do is to continue to search and clear. It may take hundreds or thousands of years to complete the task of finally eliminating pterosaurs.

During this period, any spacecraft leaving the Kuiper Belt will strengthen escort and protection.

The warning within the solar system has been lifted, and even normal civil navigation has been restored.

In a sense, the pterosaur crisis has been passed for human civilization.

Han Yang reviewed the whole process.

This is the first time that humans have encountered a civilization-level crisis since becoming the first in the Yuanshan Star Region. Reviewing the process of this incident is of great significance, which helps Han Yang to truly understand his current combat power and the comprehensive strength of human civilization.

After a careful review, Han Yang finally came to a conclusion.

"There are two key points for me to resolve this battle so easily. The first is naturally my computing power and the engineering capabilities brought by computing power, which need not be explained.

The second is the great improvement in 'quality' brought about by technological progress.

The detection satellite has a wider detection range, higher accuracy, and more sensitivity. The electromagnetic gun has a higher firing rate, faster projectile speed, and more accurate shooting; the armor protection capability is stronger, and so on and so forth.

Countless tiny improvements have brought about a huge leap in the comprehensive strength of civilization.

On the whole, the combat power of human civilization has exceeded the combined combat power of the other three civilizations. No, at least it is twice the combat power of the other three civilizations combined.

But, it is speculated that even so, my combat power is still far from the real third-level civilization. This cannot be compensated by quantity.

Then... since this matter has been resolved, I should also go all out to attack the third-level civilization."

Han Yang made up his mind.

At this moment, with human civilization first solving the pterosaur crisis, the Yuanshan Alliance, which had been communicating frequently, became quiet instead.

Han Yang did not think about supporting other civilizations. The three civilizations that had been shouting the loudest and strongly demanding human civilization's assistance before also began to remain silent.

Han Yang knew the reason for this change very well.

They didn't dare to let the human fleet go to help.

After all, after this crisis, the imbalance of the combat power of the four civilizations has become a reality. In this case, as the most powerful civilization with the least combat power loss... will the human civilization think of taking advantage of this disaster to destroy the other civilizations?

The direct benefits are not great. But from the perspective of geopolitical security, there are long-term benefits, and they are not small. In addition, the other three civilizations were all seriously damaged in this crisis, and destroying them is the best opportunity.

In this case, which civilization dares to let the human civilization's support fleet come?

When the human fleet points its guns at itself, it will be fun.

Han Yang certainly didn't have the idea of ​​taking advantage of others' misfortune. The reason is also very simple, there is no need.

Geopolitical security? Will I worry that you will threaten me in the future? What a joke.

At this moment, if other civilizations ask humans for help, Han Yang really wants to go and help.

The reason is also very simple. There are certain benefits for human civilization.

First, it avoids the risk of subsequent pterosaurs coming to the solar system. Secondly, it enhances the pride and cohesion of civilization and establishes the first position of human civilization in the Yuanshan star field.

Simply put, it is to recruit younger brothers.

If the other three civilizations can become human younger brothers wholeheartedly, then there are obviously huge benefits in it.

Not to mention the rest, the exchange of science and technology alone is enough for humans to reap huge benefits.

Even if human civilization is the first in science and technology at the moment, in some unconventional technologies, other civilizations may also be far ahead of humans.

Strengthening scientific and technological exchanges and expanding the scientific and technological territory is also a kind of accumulation, which is extremely beneficial for civilization to impact the third level.

Not to mention the benefits of the distribution and integration of commercial and industrial systems and acting as outposts to explore the way after having younger brothers.

Human civilization can also legitimately "exploit" the other three civilizations and get the biggest benefits in the production system.

Of course, this kind of exploitation is different from the original colonization of the solar system by the Itar civilization. If Han Yang were to lead this kind of exploitation, then humans would eat meat and other civilizations would drink soup, which would also be beneficial to other civilizations and to a certain extent promote the development of technology and comprehensive strength of other civilizations, but the benefits would not be as great as those obtained by humans.

However, although there are many benefits to assisting other civilizations, after comprehensive evaluation by Han Yang, it is not so much that it must be done.

Overall, there are benefits, but not much, and it is not interesting.

It just so happens that you civilizations have begun to guard against me, afraid that I will destroy you, and I am too lazy to bother.

This situation has continued for several years. Until a certain accidental event occurred, which made Han Yang realize that he might have to support those three civilizations. (End of this chapter)
