Half a month after the start of the surveillance, the first fleet on the federal side, all controlled by Wu Xiaoqing's clones, entered the battlefield for the first time.

They did well, better than most of the Federalists, but because they were only experimental troops, they retreated from the battlefield after only a little contact.

300,000 Wu Xiaoqing died in that battle.

But no one cares.

The Federation didn't care, it was just a tentative battle; Wu Xiaoqing didn't care, because to him it seemed to be just a number, and he didn't feel that he had died more than 300,000 times at all; Speaking of which, their enemies cared more, because of these 300,000 people, its winning rate dropped by more than a dozen points.

Half of the solar system can now see the armies of both sides marching from the rear planet to the front, they look like artificial galaxies in the sky, the two rivers are centered on the huge disk of the solar system, the Federation is from the inside out, and the intelligence body is from the outside to the inside, spreading along the ecliptic plane.

A part of the fleet of the Wisdom Body, even without regard to saving energy, began to try to start from the direction of the vertical ecliptic plane - directly attacking the rear base of the Federation.

The war soon came to a fever pitch.

But for Wu Xiaoqing, they actually didn't feel anything at all.

For them, this interstellar war is like a fight between the stars in the sky, not to mention the specific details of the fight, and they don't even know what the meaning of these stars flashing and disappearing means, and they can only rely on radio information from within the Federation to analyze the current war situation.

Official sources of the Federation began to advertise one great victory after another, the first, the second...... The twenty-second battle for the defense of the earth was a complete success, and the enemy's attempts were successfully thwarted.

But public opinion does not seem to be so enthusiastic.

"The government must quickly increase the proportion of Wu Xiaoqing in the army!"

"The Federation cannot afford such casualties!"

"Our civilization is losing blood fast!"

……

The original plan was to gradually retire the original soldiers, and gradually replace them with Wu Xiaoqing's clones in two or three years, but now the war is urgent, so on the one hand, the original army can only be on top, on the other hand, simply copy Wu Xiaoqing's clone for a second time - that is, to directly copy the clone that can directly participate in the battle after training.

Although this kind of secondary replication can expand the number of troops as quickly as possible in a short period of time, one of the biggest consequences is that it will form a split within the original Wu Xiaoqing organization, and at the same time, it will also make it easy for the intellectual body to capture the execution actions of these "same batch" replicas on the battlefield - their command and tactical actions are almost identical, and it will naturally be easier to target them.

After the secondary replication troops were targeted in several battles, the Federation had to return to the old way and began to continue the original cultivation process in a replica again, at this time, the sneak attack troops of the intellectual body were basically exhausted, and in space, if you don't use the planet as a springboard and fly directly by leaps, this kind of attack is difficult to maintain a lasting effect, even if the attack is effective in a short time, it is impossible to keep the results.

By this time the battle was going on, the Federation had begun to declare war control on all planets.

The surface of all planets, as well as the crust, is no longer inhabited, and most people have taken refuge in the depths of the earth according to evacuation regulations, or directly to some small space city on the moon.

The Sapient Body's attacks began to go wild, bombarding a number of important targets they detected with nukes and a small portion of antimatter*, including some military servers that might store replicants.

All replicas began to be backed up multiple times, and almost every planet was left behind, and the servers of these backups were usually mothballed and not activated, and only after they were destroyed by the backup servers, they would be activated in an orderly manner.

On Earth, as we enter mid-May and the weather begins to gradually enter summer, the battle of the Federation is also in full swing.

Wu Xiaoqing now subconsciously feels fear every time he returns from the search and rescue ship and sees the scene on the earth.

Because everything is too fragile.

Almost every time he returned, he would learn how many more copies like himself had died in the war, and all the battles about them were the same as before, which could be found on the Federation's network, and the federal government even deliberately connived at some civil organizations to transport this information to the area where the search and rescue ship was located through small civilian spaceships and show them it.

Wu Xiaoqing is on the rescue ship these days, and what he sees every day is about his own sacrifice.

Wu Xiaoqing himself had really faced death, and he was frightened at a loss at that time. But those Wu Xiaoqing in the video are much stronger than the Wu Xiaoqing who didn't dare to jump by the river in the past - most of them.

Inevitably, there will still be a small number of people who show the same fear and despair as Wu Xiaoqing did that day.

These people have been extremely devastating to Wu Xiaoqing's psychological state, and now the search and rescue team and Shen Changwen have persuaded Wu Xiaoqing not to look at these things anymore.

But Wu Xiaoqing still comes every day, and in his opinion, these are the consequences of his own decisions...... He couldn't save these people, but as the initiator, he felt that he had a responsibility to understand all these people's experiences.

The Federation is thousands of years more advanced than Earth, and if Earth is bombarded with a bombardment that covers the entire surface, there is almost no possibility of the entire civilization surviving. But for the Federalists, those battles on the surface were nothing more than routine bombardment.

The fiercer battle took place in space, on the twelfth planet, which the Federation called the Little Sun.

This planet is called Xiaoyang Star because it is the largest planet in the entire solar system, almost the same size as a small star, because of its huge mass and excessive internal temperature, it is the only planet among the fifteen planets that has not established an industrial system inside. At one point, the Federation had the idea of splitting the planet into four or five planets in the same orbit to accommodate the Federation's industrial system.

However, due to internal legal constraints, this proposal has not been answered.

Now, of course, this planet, because of its huge mass, has become a key point that the intellect must fight for.

The Federation has also invested heavily in the army, and in the past two months, the billions of Wu Xiaoqing who have completed training and the fleet they control have been arranged here, of course, they are facing more enemies - it is a super huge fleet that has just been mass-produced from the Black Star, with a scale of more than 10 billion, through the astronomical observation equipment on the search and rescue ship, it can be seen that this fleet is like a giant snake spinning in space, along the most energy-efficient rotation orbit of the two planets, approaching each other in a graceful arc.

At the place where the giant snake came into contact with the destination Xiaoyang Xing, the head of the glittering giant snake began to burst out with brilliant sparks, like the burning hot iron in a steelmaking furnace - the glowing position is the battlefield where the battle is being fought, and the biggest reason for these lights is the explosion of the key parts of the ships of the two sides.

In fact, most ships are actually not martyred after losing their combat effectiveness, whether it is a Federation or a Sapient spaceship, when the internal engines cannot be maintained, the first priority is to stop running rather than barely run - because the explosion will cause a lot of space junk, which will have a huge hindrance to the actions of both sides.

But this time, the Federation fleet can't take care of that much.

It can be seen from the video from the Federation that the Federation has given a death order - they have even changed the engine settings for this purpose, and after losing its combat effectiveness by default, the ship will take the initiative to explode, the purpose is naturally to artificially create a * belt formed by space junk, delaying the offensive edge of the intelligent army.

At this point in the war, Wu Xiaoqing didn't want to watch it anymore.

The search and rescue team voluntarily canceled his mission in this mission and asked him to return to Earth to wait...... Because watching these battlefield live broadcasts every day is a huge torture for Wu Xiaoqing's spirit.

But Wu Xiaoqing will still take the initiative to ask him about these things after Shen Changwen comes back.

Shen Changwen deliberately concealed a considerable part of the details, but the course of this war still roughly told him - under the Federation's desperate martyrdom tactics, the entire orbital layer of Xiaoyang Star was almost covered with space junk and filled with fragments of space battleships...... and, devices that may contain memory for Wu Xiaoqing's clones.

This means that if the mind wants to attack, it will have to consume more energy, risk being given the tactical disadvantage of being beaten more and less, start from a farther place, accelerate, slow down when it reaches its destination, and then attack...... Such an attack is destined to be weaker, and the combat attrition ratio will be worse.

But again, this * belt also restricts the outings of federal troops.

As a result, the situation of the war seemed to have eased, and the two sides were still fighting fiercely around Xiaoyangxing, but the scale of the battle began to become less and less - because the clean battlefields available for battle began to become less and less.

Probably in order to deliberately divert Wu Xiaoqing's attention, the search and rescue team began to assign Wu Xiaoqing some affairs on earth to let him change his mood, including letting him supervise the entire filming process of the sequel to "Save the Ancestors".

Wu Xiaoqing's work began to become busy, but every once in a while, when he met Shen Changwen and Xu Yan back to the company, he would still habitually ask a few questions.

Shen Changwen told him less and less...... Wu Xiaoqing now understands that the less he says, the more difficult it will be for those clones...... Every time he saw Shen Changwen shaking his head, he stopped asking questions with interest.

June was a very short month for Wu Xiaoqing, and the busyness during the filming process somewhat distracted him. Because the filming location was in the field, Wu Xiaoqing basically couldn't meet Shen Changwen, so he no longer paid attention to the news of this mission.

Until mid-July, the whole movie had been completed, and when he returned to the company, he saw that Shen Changwen and Xu Yan were there.

"Don't you need to go on duty?" Wu Xiaoqing subconsciously asked, and then patted his head, "It's over?" ”

"It's over!" Shen Changwen shouted excitedly, "Thanks to you!" ”

"Thanks to me?" Wu Xiaoqing touched his head, looking puzzled, "The war is over?" ”

"No...... The two sides have made peace," Shen Changwen called, "Do you remember Xiao Yangxing?" Just take that planet as the boundary. ”

Wu Xiaoqing frowned: "Talk about peace?" Will the federal government agree? "Even if Xiaoyang Star is lost, the federal government has an overwhelming advantage in the entire war resources. In the prior deduction, in fact, everyone did not think that there was a possibility of peace between the two sides at all - it could only be a civilization that lived or died, and finally survived.

"No, it's not the previous federal government anymore!" Shen Changwen patted Wu Xiaoqing on the shoulder and laughed, "There have been major changes within the Federation. ”
