Vol 4 Chapter 1343: Mankind, stellar civilization

#217 Scutum, the headquarters of the Galactic Empire Fleet.
He has not received any news of additional support from the home planet, and the Duke of Arden increasingly feels that his future is bleak.
Moreover, during this period of time, Kaztec did not reveal any good news, and there was no progress in lobbying the Supreme Council of the home planet.
The Duke of Arden became increasingly dissatisfied with this.
From the perspective of military control, Kaz'tik is a military officer sent from the Palestine home planet, responsible for all military affairs of the Galactic Empire, and has the highest military power.
However, in many cases, power and strength are equal.
The main fleet brought by Kaztec has been wiped out in the battle with humans and the mechanical empire, and the few destroyers that finally escaped could not rebuild the fleet at all.
Therefore, Kaz'tik is now a polished commander, with only a commander in command stationed by the home planet, and in fact there is no fleet at hand.
The Duke of Arden also has a large fleet.
Therefore, even if Kaz'tik is the nominal military commander of the Galactic Far Star Empire, in fact, the Duke of Arden doesn't listen to him much anymore.
Of course, behind Kaz'tik there is also a warlord Zandar Ikoc, who wants to persuade the mother star to send additional fleets to support the galaxy, and he needs to rely on Kaz'tik and his teacher.
Therefore, on the surface, Duke Arden would still leave some face to Kaz'tik.
Of course, this has a prerequisite, that is, Kaz'tik can really successfully lobby the home planet for additional support.
However, during this period of time, the Duke of Arden heard that Kaztic was not actively communicating with his home planet, but was busy with something meaningless.
Shield seat #217 base headquarters.
The Duke of Arden walked into the domed hall where Kaztec worked.
The buildings in Palerce, even if it is an office, will be built as elegant as a church, full of the atmosphere of a higher civilization.
"Before you come in, you should ask for instructions, Mr. Duke." Kaztic was interrupted, slightly dissatisfied, and his tone was also expressed, but there was no real attack.
The Duke of Arden certainly heard the dissatisfaction in his tone, but he didn't care, but asked coldly:
"The development of the second planet of human civilization is already very high. When will the reinforcements of the parent planet arrive?
"You have always insisted that mankind is a civilization of natural disasters. Now that the natural disasters of the universe are coming, you don't want to have the mother star send additional support fleets as soon as possible. Instead, you are doing something meaningless."
"What is meaningless thing?" Kaztic asked in a cold voice, and the dissatisfaction revealed in his tone increased a bit, with a distinct sense of hierarchy.
"I hope the general can lobby the home planet to send additional support fleets as soon as possible, instead of spending time observing a low-level civilization!" Duke Arden said solemnly.
"To defeat the enemy, you should first understand the enemy. Observation is always the first and most critical step to win the war. Does this require me to explain to you? Duke." Kaztick replied coldly.
What this sentence says alone is actually very reasonable, and it can even be said to be the truth.
The victory of a war always begins with reconnaissance.
"I think we know enough about human civilization. What we should do now is send a fleet to crush this civilization." Duke Arden retorted.
Kaz'tik showed a hint of mockery in his expression, and said: "That's right, the fleet is in the hands of the Duke, so please send the fleet to the Duke to destroy this civilization."
"You!" The Duke of Arden was choked with nothing to say.
The Duke of Arden's face suddenly became a little ugly. If he had this ability, he would have done it directly, and there was no need to waste time here.
However, the facts are very ridiculous.
"The Duke of the Far Star Empire with a dignified super galaxy civilization has a huge fleet, but can't deal with a mere planetary civilization. It's very embarrassing, right?"
Kaz'tik showed a hint of sneer, and continued: "Oh, no. It's not a planetary civilization anymore, but a stellar civilization, or a very special stellar civilization."
The classification of cosmic civilization is very complicated, and different conclusions can be drawn according to different classification methods.
For example, if we divide civilization levels by science and technology levels, then human civilization levels will be more confusing.
Because mankind has mastered the curvature technology of the top stellar civilization, it cannot be regarded as a planetary civilization at all.
However, before half a month, humans really only possessed one planet, and they had not even begun to develop the resources of stars.
From the perspective of territorial division, a civilization with only one planet is a planetary civilization.
In terms of resource development, it is still a planetary civilization that has not yet begun to develop stellar resources.
In most cases, the division of civilization levels is based on the territorial division method.
That is, according to the cosmic territory occupied by civilization and the degree of resource development to classify civilization levels.
Only one planet is occupied, and that is planetary civilization.
It is the stellar civilization that has occupied a star system and started to develop stellar resources.
Just half a month ago.
After the success of the first interstellar migration of mankind, it marked that human civilization had a second planet.
This is a sign that planetary civilization is moving towards stellar civilization, that is, since that day, human civilization has entered the level of stellar civilization.
"So? A stellar civilization should have been easily crushed. As long as the support fleet of the mother star arrives, this war can be ended. Instead of spending all your time with earth humans like you are now In the correspondence.
When Duke Arden said this, he had already revealed his irritability.
Obviously, he has been very uncomfortable by the current situation.
Under normal circumstances, for a higher civilization like Palese, whether a civilization is a planetary civilization or a stellar civilization, there is actually no difference. They are all low-level civilizations that can be destroyed by just sending a warship.
However, now the situation is just the opposite.
He was a dignified nobleman of high civilization, and was so frightened by a fleet of low civilization that he only dared to hide in the planetary fortress.
This is something that has never happened before in the tens of thousands of years of Palestine civilization.
"Have you never studied warfare? Is communication with hostile civilized individuals a meaningless act in your opinion? Tell me, who is your warfare teacher?" Kaztic asked hardly.
The Duke of Arden certainly knows what Kaztec is talking about. In cosmic warfare, there is a tactic called the Schkechi Plan. The goal is to disintegrate the internal social structure of the main organism of civilization by controlling the individual of the hostile civilization.
In this way, to disintegrate hostile civilizations.
However, this tactic has a characteristic, usually used to deal with the same level as your own civilization, or high-level hostile civilization, rather than used to deal with low-level civilization.
