Chapter 328: Self-inflicted
The head of state's house, a meeting room dedicated to the Senate.
"136 days!" Wu Yumeng exclaimed, "Then aren't we going to evacuate the whole country again?" ”
Zhang Wenhao slammed his fist on the conference table, and said hatefully: "This Celerian is really hateful, how can he come up with such an ultimate weapon, it is almost to destroy the universe." ”
"Führer, I suggest that the collection of scientific and technological equipment and materials in the Cele Star Field be suspended, we need this capacity for the Empire's own migration preparations." Sun Jingan said.
Li Chunfeng nodded and said, "That's right, now we have a preliminary understanding of the expansion of the local universe, and we have also calculated its scope of influence.
Since it is impossible to obtain exactly how much dark matter the Celers produced, we can't bet that the scope of this expansion is really 1200 light years, so a temporary withdrawal of the entire empire is necessary.
Before the meeting, I had already informed Zhuang Yun of the Forward Command to stop sending the fleet to the planet inhabited by the Celers.
I'm currently considering when to withdraw the patrol and blockade fleets scattered between 50 and 100 light-years from the Cele field and move to search for new planets of life. ”
Liu Mingchuan heard this and hurriedly said: "Chunfeng, Sale and we must be mortal enemies now, if we let people escape at this time, will it become our henchmen?"
I think we should continue to lock down for a while. As for exploring the planet of new life, you can transfer a batch of newly produced intelligent warships, which is also safer. ”
Zhang Wenhao also said: "Führer, now ......"
Li Chunfeng's face suddenly changed and he stood up, interrupting Zhang Wenhao's words and saying, "There was a major accident!" One intelligence, immediately project the picture in the conference room! ”
As soon as Li Chunfeng's words fell, a 3D projection picture appeared in front of everyone.
This is the S113 galaxy, which is the galaxy that houses the Celerians, and the picture shows the Celerians on the inhabited planet.
I saw that from the settlement outward, countless Cele people fell to the ground, and their bodies, which were not tall, were now crumpled into a ball, wrapped in clothing, and the exposed parts of their bodies looked like dried pheasants.
If it's just one or two, the problem is that you can see this everywhere in the picture, some of these pictures are taken by the planetary monitoring system, and some are taken by the robots of the Planetary Affairs Administration.
Subsequently, there was the clone affairs officer and clone police stationed on the planet by the Aeolian Empire, and the same tragic situation occurred.
At this time, as the screen played, Intelligence One began to narrate what happened.
Since this morning, the Celers on the planet S113 have been dying continuously, at first one or two sporadically, and when they first appeared, they frightened the living Celers into running in all directions, shouting "Naseta".
However, the Celers, who had the strength to escape from the settlement, were not able to get far, and began to lodging one after another.
With the narration of No. 1 intelligence, there is a corresponding picture displayed at the same time.
One settlement, two, three...... This is the case in all the Cele settlements on the entire planet, and almost all of them lose their body water in a very short period of time after they fall.
Such a terrifying picture first made Wu Yumeng unbearable, so he turned his head and entered the bathroom configured in the exclusive conference room, and vomited.
Although Phoenix is also a woman, as a biologist, she has done a lot of dissection, and this picture will not make her feel uncomfortable except for arousing her academic interest.
"Preliminary judgment, this may be some kind of highly contagious virus." After the No. 1 intelligence finished playing the screen, it made a simple summary.
"One, this happened to planet S113, so there is no rescue transport ship to transport new Celers here today?" Zhang Wenhao asked.
"Before the accident, there were rescue transport ships and life-class spaceships that sent a group of Celers, and not long after the transport ships arrived in the target systems, they received orders from the front command to withdraw, and now they should withdraw to the Dunka system......"
No. 1 was explaining, and Zhang Wenhao exclaimed, "Quick! Don't let the Celers of the Dunka system or the people of the Front Command touch these transports and life-class ships! ”
At this time, Li Chunfeng suddenly said: "Don't worry, fortunately, no one in the garrison fleet in the Dunka system went to the planet, and no one went to those transport ships and life-level spaceships. As for these warships, the corresponding robots will be arranged for detection.
One, with my order, that the Forward Command and all fleets cruising in the Cele field retreat to a distance of 100 light-years from the Celer's capital system to conduct blockade operations, and destroy any Celerian warships or ships as soon as they are discovered.
Only the corresponding unmanned intelligent warships will be arranged to explore the situation of the Celers in each galaxy. The entire Celerian galaxy must not let anyone out.
I will arrange a corresponding biochemical inspection team to test all warships that have been to the Cele Star Domain at the designated location to ensure that no virus will be brought into the territory of the Anemo Empire. ”
"If the robot had taken a sample of the virus, I would have to find out what was going on to make a human body dehydrate and die," Phoenix said. ”
"Phoenix, no one can directly study it for the time being, judging from the situation in the video, this virus is too contagious, and it is also very hidden, our transport ships and life-class spaceships have the ability to automatically detect xenopathogens and viruses.
However, during the transportation of the Celers, there were no alarms. So it's better for the robot research assistant to do it first, and I'll arrange it to be done on an uninhabited planet. Li Chunfeng admonished.
Wu Yumeng, whose face was pale, suddenly said: "I think that all human soldiers should be transferred back and a biological detection spacecraft should be designated to comprehensively test them and ensure safety!" ”
++++++++++++++
Unknown void, 49 light-years from the Cele Capital System.
A fleet is cruising here, this is the 377th Detachment of the Aeolus Empire, which is on patrol duty here.
This is to prevent the Cele civilization from having spaceships or warships escape from the core star field, and after the General Staff evacuated the main fleet, the fleet that originally carried out the blockade mission did not evacuate.
"Chengzi, why don't you say we are divided into the main fleet? Last time, we intercepted the escape ship of the Westminster civilization, but we made a great contribution, why don't you give us an upgrade? Staff Officer Ding Shuai began to talk again.
"You...... Last time, we made a great contribution, but you also have to think about how long we have been the commander of the detachment fleet? How much experience can you have in commanding a fleet? Xue Chengyuan said.
Ding Shuai said helplessly: "I also know that we have just promoted the commander of the detachment, and we have made a contribution, and it is definitely impossible to upgrade it immediately."
However, even so, we should be assigned to the main attack fleet, right? Now, it's too boring to still do patrol missions and catch fugitive civilian spaceships every day. ”
"Don't complain, look at the tachyon detector, and the space energy detector, is there any situation." Xue Chengyuan pointed to the instrument over there and said.
"Chengzi, you're not authentic, are these instruments good for having intelligent brains? Why should I stare at it? As soon as Ding Shuai stood up, he came to his senses and was tricked by his partner.
"That's not necessarily, the brain is not as good as your brain, and the last time you made it up. If you fiddle with it again today, you may be able to make meritorious contributions again. Xue Chengyuan joked.
Ding Shuai felt bored in his heart, and ignored Xue Chengyuan's jokes, and really walked up to the faster-than-light detector to see the instrument settings, which were carried out according to the regular patrol mode of 2 light years.
The detection range of the tachyon detector is divided into two automatic modes: conventional patrol and limit search, which are selected and applied by the brain according to the specific situation of the task.
Ding Shuai went up to operate and manually changed to the limit search mode, and the search range was expanded to the limit value of 3.2 light years.
However, after searching for more than 20 minutes, the screen still did not change.
Ding Shuai was bored, and was about to change back to the regular patrol mode when he suddenly saw a red dot flashing at the edge of the screen.
"Huh?! There's really a situation! Chengzi, give the order quickly, and the fleet will immediately make a space jump to the coordinates XXXX! ”
"Hey, handsome guy, did you really find out?" Xue Chengyuan didn't expect Ding Shuai to fiddle with the instrument for a while, and he made a discovery, and he was not ambiguous at the moment, and immediately gave instructions to Zhi Brain.
The 377th Squadron and 501 warships quickly disappeared into the void.
In the next second, Squadron 377 appeared in another void 3 light-years away.
As soon as the 377th Squadron appeared, the fleet's intelligent brain immediately issued a warning.
"200 million kilometers away, the Celerian fleet was discovered, the number of warships was 2000, the direction was XYZ, and the speed was 100 times the speed of light in superluminal navigation!"
"Damn, I found a big fish! Handsome guy, you are really a lucky general! Xue Chengyuan shouted.
Because the distance between the two fleets was less than the minimum space jump distance, he immediately ordered, "The whole fleet immediately enters the superluminal voyage and catches up with them!" Immediately telegraph to the headquarters the position of our fleet and the situation of the enemy. ”
The 377th Squadron quickly entered a state of super-light, and its speed increased to 160 times the speed of light, and in just over 10 seconds, it had already surpassed 70 million kilometers in front of that fleet.
Almost at the same time, the fleet broke away from the faster-than-light state and immediately attacked the Cele fleet in curvature space with space energy missiles.
The other party obviously also discovered the 377th fleet, but he didn't expect that the superluminal performance of the battleships of the Fengshen Empire was far superior to his own, and in just over 10 seconds, he actually copied the front of his own fleet, and immediately got out of the faster-than-light state and launched an attack.
The whole tactical move was skilful and swift, and the Celers barely reacted.
At the moment of crisis, the fleet commander Loeda ordered the whole fleet to get out of the state of faster-than-light sailing, and launched a clean attack on the fleet of the Aeolian Empire that was sailing faster than light.
Loeda's instinctive command allowed the entire fleet to escape the fate of total destruction in an instant.
However, although the fleet that has just broken away from the curvature space, although the number of warships is more than that of the Aeolian Empire's fleet, regardless of the gap in the technology of the two warships, the morale alone is 108,000 miles behind.
Now, under the attack of the Aeolian Empire's space energy missiles, although it is not as powerful as in the curvature space, it still destroys more than 300 warships of the Celes.
The fleet of Loeda is a fugitive fleet, and there are a large number of upper-level elites of the Arri galaxy on the flagship, all of whom are afraid of encountering the fleets patrolled by the Anemo God Empire.
Who knows if to make three consecutive space jumps and then choose a route away from the galaxy to travel faster than light, usually the situation should be difficult to detect.
As a result, it only sailed for a few days, but it was still discovered and caught up by the Aeolian Empire fleet.
"Loeda, they have fewer warships than us, quickly order 1,500 warships to surround and stop them, let's take the rest of the warships first, don't fall in love with the war!" Sochel said directly to Loeda.
Although Loeda knew that this was an abandonment of the car to protect the commander, he could only order 1,500 warships to be divided into an encirclement formation and rush towards the 377th Detachment of the Aeolian Empire.
At the same time, Loeda's flagship and the few remaining warships first accelerated away from the battlefield, ready to get out of a certain range of weapons, and then entered a state of superluminal sailing.
"Hey, I want to run! Wisdom brain, quantum ripples empty this batch of rushing up to get in the way! At the same time, the faster-than-light sounder locked onto the small fleet that had escaped, especially the larger flagship. ”
Xue Chengyuan gave the order with a sneer.
The Celerian warship had just fired a round of quantum cannonballs when it found that a quantum ripple of the enemy was already close in front of them, and they didn't know when the other party sent it.
Such a covert quantum ripple attack is the most terrifying.
The small fleet led by Loeda's flagship had not yet reached the speed of light when he discovered that 1,500 of his own warships had disappeared in the distance.
"It's horrible! The lethality of the Aeolian Empire ships is too great! Prince Renique sighed.
"Your Highness, let's surrender!" Sochir reluctantly suggested.
"Huh?! Surrender? Sochil the Wise, how can we surrender? If they had transported us to the same place as the people who had come before us, wouldn't we have contracted the 'Naseta' virus as well? Prince Renque asked.
"If we don't surrender, they will definitely destroy us with quantum ripple weapons, and if we surrender, there is still a chance to live. We can tell them that the 'Naseta' virus leaked and we escaped from the system.
Let the Aeolus Empire deal with the 'Naseta' virus, and at this time, I believe they will definitely not send us to be with those who are infected. Socher explained.
Loeda opened her mouth, did not speak, and turned her head to look at the observation system, at this time the fleet of the Anemo God Empire had once again outflanked it.
"Your Highness, they are catching up, what should we do now?" Loeda asked.
"Your Highness, listen to me, as long as we live, we will still have a chance, if we die, there will be nothing." Sochil urged.
Prince Lenik said gloomily: "Loeda, send a message to the other party, we surrender!" ”
The flagship of the 377th Squadron, which was approaching 20 million kilometers away, Xue Chengyuan was about to send a message to persuade him to surrender, but he didn't expect the other party to send a surrender message.
Just as he was about to accept the other party's surrender, he suddenly sent a prompt from his brain.
"Führer's Order: All patrol fleets immediately withdraw to 100 light-years outside the Cele Core Star Domain for a new blockade mission! The Celers are suspected of carrying an unidentified virus that is highly contagious, and if any Cele warships or spaceships are found, they will be destroyed with quantum ripples! ”
"Oh my God! They didn't even accept our surrender, quantum ripples came to ......"
Loeda saw from the projection screen that quantum ripples suddenly appeared in the void around the flagship, and just halfway through the exclamation, the entire small fleet had been annihilated without a trace.
