Chapter 348: Earth After the Disaster
During the last month's trip, the command ship Combined Fleet crossed the Kuiper Belt, passed by Neptune and Saturn in long distances, and finally reached Jupiter. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The 2nd, 6th, 8th, and 9th Falcon Frigates, and the 30th-50th Deep Space Resource Development Fleets arrived at Jupiter about twenty days ago. They found that the Jupiter spaceyard, the most important spaceport and resource base of the Earth civilization in the solar system, has become a mess, and tens of thousands of scientists and engineers who were originally stationed in the spacedock have all died.
The remains of these scientists and engineers still retain the posture of working before they died, and the whole scene is very tragic.
According to the work log, they were still in a race against time before they died, hoping to build the last spacecraft to carry the last people out of the solar system and catch up with the Space City group that left first.
It's just that the gamma-ray burst did not pity their painstaking efforts, and directly cut off their last hope in the most ruthless way.
Although the bones of tens of thousands of scientists and engineers had been collected by the previously arrived fleet when Yuan Haochen landed at the Jupiter space dock, he could still feel a strong and lingering aura of slaughter, this place was like a space graveyard!
The energy of this gamma-ray burst was terrifying, and even the massive Jupiter left countless scars in the attack. Years have passed, and although Jupiter has returned to calm, the changes in Jupiter can still be clearly perceived.
Jupiter's mass as a whole has decreased by nearly 5.1%, and its orbit has shifted significantly. The familiar surface of Jupiter has long since changed beyond recognition, and even the Great Red Spot of Jupiter, the characteristic symbol of Jupiter's surface, the largest storm cyclone on Jupiter, has long since disappeared.
The reason why the Combined Fleet docked at Jupiter is because it is the most important space base of the Earth civilization, and on the other hand, the second, sixth, eighth, and ninth Falcon frigates that fly continuously, and the 30th-50th Deep Space Resource Development Fleets need to replenish resources here to ensure the needs of the next operation.
The importance of Jupiter to the post-disaster reconstruction of the earth's civilization is self-evident, and in the entire solar system, only Jupiter can support the huge consumption of resources required by the entire earth's civilization. Therefore, the 30th-50th deep space resource development fleet and a large number of scientists and engineers were left in the Jupiter system to carry out the reconstruction and repair of the Jupiter space dock and base.
The other 1,500 frigates, after a few days of repairs, continued to fly towards Earth.
......
Yuan Haochen stood in front of the front porthole of the command ship, staring intently at the earth that was still far away.
At this time, the earth was only the size of a soybean in his field of vision, but the spaceship was still moving forward rapidly, and the soybean was gradually growing.
"Bell-knock, bell-knock."
A melodious and quaint bell rang out from one of the command ship's video walls, on which a live video of the completion ceremony of Rainbow City, the first [geocentric city] on earth, was playing.
Accompanied by warm background music, the chanting of 10,000 young children began to waft around......
"The earth is sacred and beautiful. She is the mother of humanity, the cradle of life, and our home. The sky is blue, and you can clearly see the white clouds. The ground is green and green, and the sun is shining. The gentle breeze, the gentle drizzle, the blue ocean, the bright moonlight, the fresh air, the clear river, the mysterious forest, the precious plants, the lovely animals, all these are so beautiful and precious! The sun and moon are good friends of the earth...... The earth will always be our home! ”
Yes, what should the once infinitely beautiful earth, the cradle of human civilization, and the common mother of all living things, become now?
As time passed, the fleet got closer to Earth, and the once beautiful and familiar planet became bigger and bigger.
At this time, what jumped into everyone's eyes was a white, gray, and light blue planet.
In the higher dimensions of the area, a bright white appears where the frozen ocean and frozen land are located.
Mottled and filled the middle of the planet is a barren land stripped of green.
The pale blue, which only remains around the equator, is an ocean that has not yet been frozen and has dropped significantly in sea level.
......
"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, we have arrived in Earth's outer space, and so far, we have not received any reply!"
Yu Kai, the military commander of the joint escort fleet, reported to Yuan Haochen with a serious expression.
"What did the monitoring satellites find?" Yuan Haochen asked.
"Report! Nothing found! Military Commander Yu Kai looked grim and replied, "The entire earth is dead silent, and even the areas that have not been hit head-on by gamma-ray bursts have not noticed any movement!" ”
"It's a dead ......silence," Yuan Haochen frowned.
The atmosphere in the fleet command center has also fallen into a freezing point, and the current situation is something that no one imagined.
"Mark all the coordinates of the center of the city!!" Yuan Haochen ordered.
Soon, bright spots appeared on the model of the earth simulated by the hologram, and then more than 2,000 bright spots were darkened, leaving only 981 geocentric cities that had not been raided head-on by gamma-ray bursts.
"Ready to land!!" Yuan Chenyan ordered succinctly.
"Yes!!"
Yu Kai, the military commander of the fleet in charge of specific military operations, stood still, gave a military salute to Yuan Haochen, and then turned to the combat command console and slapped the command button calmly and forcefully!
Within thirty seconds, the images of the four officers in crisp uniforms appeared in the combat command center one by one.
"Conrad, Captain of the Second Falcon Escort Fleet, is in position, please instruct!"
"Zhao Chongjun, the captain of the Sixth Falcon Escort Fleet, is in position, please instruct!"
"Gavin, Captain of the Eighth Falcon Escort Fleet, is in position, please instruct!"
"Captain of the Ninth Falcon Escort Fleet, Rong Xiongbing, is in position, please instruct!"
"Following the order of the superiors, the fleets immediately launched a landing search operation! The 2nd Fleet is responsible for searching the northeastern part of the Asian continent! The Sixth Fleet is responsible for searching the southeast of the Asian continent! The 8th Fleet is responsible for searching the Southeast Asian Islands and Australia! The Ninth Fleet is responsible for searching the western part of North America! The rest of the area is the responsibility of the Combined Fleet of Command Ships! ”
"Accept the order! Resolutely complete the mission!! ”
High-pitched voices rang out one after another in the command center, and then the images of the four officers quickly disappeared.
The order to land and search was immediately and efficiently subdivided into each frigate through each fleet unit, and fifteen minutes later, 1,500 well-trained Falcon frigates flew in an orderly manner towards their respective target exploration areas.
"Report to the Commander-in-Chief! All the frigates have already launched their operations, and they are expected to land in their respective target areas in half an hour, and the soldiers of each fleet will launch a ground search in 45 minutes, and they will be able to enter the cities in various cities in an hour at the earliest......"
After all the instructions were issued, Yu Kai, the military commander of the joint convoy, immediately reported every detail of the search operation to Yuan Haochen. (To be continued.) )
