On the third day after the meeting, that is, on May 1, 2029, this day happened to be International Labor Day, but on this day, the official government of the Ming Empire announced yesterday that it would announce major events related to the fate of the entire Ming Empire and mankind today.

So on this day, the entire Ming Empire is discussing this matter, after all, the Ming Empire has not had any major events since the portal was bombed more than 20 years ago, except for the Mars plan, of course, but today the Ming Empire is going to announce something major again, and many people speculate whether the Ming Empire has any new plans to transform the planets other than Mars.

So on this day, the auditorium of the Central Assembly of the Ming Empire was full of reporters and various cameras, and before the press conference began, the auditorium was in a hurry, and reporters from all walks of life were enthusiastically discussing what major things the Ming Empire would release.

When the time reached nine o'clock, as all the members of the cabinet of the Ming Empire, as well as most of the senior generals of the military, as well as most of the representatives of the royal family and the royal family, walked to the middle of the podium in front of the conference room, the entire conference room was quiet for a while.

Careful reporters found that this press conference was different from the past, in the past, the spokesman spoke, but this time these people have summarized the top leaders of the entire Ming Empire, so all the reporters are silent, they have a hunch that this press conference is different from the past, and in the previous words, some rumors have been revealed, about the overall fate of mankind.

Just when they were guessing, Zhu Lei, who was sitting at the leader of the Ming Empire's press conference, stood up and said: "All the people of the Ming Empire, today I want to tell you a heavy news, three days ago, the external warning radar arranged by the empire around the solar system found a mysterious object, which is flying towards the solar system at a speed of 1/10 of the speed of light.

At first, we thought that this should be a space meteorite, but after the analysis of our scientists in the Ming Empire, it was found that this was not an ordinary meteorite, because ordinary meteorites could not reach 1/10 of the speed of light, so scientists thought that this was an extraterrestrial civilization probe.

That is to say, we have discovered extraterrestrial intelligent beings, and the technological level of extraterrestrial intelligent beings may not be lower than ours, if only vented, but more seriously, they sent a probe to fly towards the solar system at 1/10 of the speed of light. Speaking of this, Zhu Lei stopped.

But at this time, there was a commotion in the conference room, after all, Zhu Lei's speech was too sensational, and they discovered an alien advanced intelligent civilization, and they also sent a probe to fly towards the solar system, and the speed was so fast that it reached the level of 1/10 of the speed of light.

In other words, the scientific and technological level of the alien civilization may be higher than that of the earth, after all, in the understanding of most reporters, the speed of the most advanced aircraft can only reach about 4% to 5% of the speed of light, after all, ordinary reporters and people have no access to the most advanced space vehicles of the Ming Empire.

That's why they think that the other party's civilization may be much higher than the earth's technology, so most people suddenly feel that things are not good, although before this, the Ming Empire has had an interstellar war in the Pangu galaxy and defeated the other party, but this time is different from the last time, this time the opponent's technology level is obviously higher than that of the earth, so suddenly the hearts of reporters from all walks of life began to worry.

At this time, Zhu Lei spoke again: "This is the data and pictures sent back by the alert radar we have arranged around the solar system. ”

After finishing speaking, a huge virtual screen appeared on Zhu Lei's head, and the data of the other party's probe detected by the alert radar at the edge of the solar system was displayed on the screen.

"And this probe is already less than a light-year away from the solar system, and this probe is now flying towards the solar system at 10% of the speed of light, which means that it will not take ten years for the other party to reach the edge of the solar system." Zhu Lei didn't look at the expressions of the reporters below, but said what he wanted to say.

"And we can't be sure if the probe is followed by an alien fleet, after all, our vigilance radar in the solar system has only a light-year away at its farthest range.

But please rest assured, although this time, although this time it was discovered that the alien probe is flying towards the solar system, but in fact, in terms of science and technology, our earth is not weaker than the other party, maybe there are a lot of people who don't know, at present, the most advanced spacecraft of our Ming Empire can reach about 4% of the speed of light, so our military has the ability to protect the safety of our Ming Empire and the solar system.

At present, there are nearly 50,000 spaceships that our Ming Empire's military can carry out space operations, although most of them are small spaceships and can only fight in the solar system, but there are nearly 20,000 spaceships capable of long-distance operations, and the other party is still nearly a light year away from us, which means that the arrival of alien civilizations in the solar system will not be ten years later at the earliest.

Four years is enough time for us to do a lot of things, for example, for the construction of spaceships, four years is enough for us to build tens of thousands of spaceships capable of long-distance operations.

The second is that in four years we will be able to train millions of spaceship pilots, so you don't have to worry too much.

In fact, our Ming Empire is still very advanced in terms of science and technology, and it may even be more advanced than the technology of the other civilization, although I don't know what the specific weapon system of the other civilization is, but I don't think that our human weapon system will be lower than theirs.

Whether it is a single weapon or a large space equipment that can fight in the universe, individual weapons we have electromagnetic rail guns, particle beam guns, laser guns, as well as power armor and a variety of high-performance explosive weapons.

In terms of space equipment, we humans currently have all the spacecraft systems from aerospace vehicles to large spaceships. ”

"So please don't worry, the citizens of the Ming Empire, although we may have the same technological level as the aliens, and may even be slightly behind them, but we have a huge space fleet and the war wisdom left to us by our ancestors, so we are fully capable of destroying each other outside the solar system.

Of course, as a courtesy, we will also send a probe to fly in the direction of the other party in the near future, to see what kind of civilization the other party is, dare to invade our Ming Empire, as early as the Taizu period, the founding emperor of the Ming Empire has already said that those who commit the great tomorrow will be punished even if they are far away. After finishing speaking, Zhu Lei sat down with a relaxed face, completely different from the serious expression before.

After Zhu Lei finished speaking, all the reporters' faces were obviously relaxed, after all, as long as the other party's technology is not obviously too much better than the Ming Empire, then most of the people, whether it is the military personnel or the civilian population, have the confidence to defeat the other party, after all, the wisdom of war in China for thousands of years is not given in vain.

And many reporters here were speechless all of a sudden, after all, the expressions they put on before were so serious that most people thought in their hearts that alien intelligent civilizations, their technological level far surpassed that of human beings, so the war would be difficult to fight, and it might even fail.

Moreover, the previous interstellar war in the Pangea galaxy told people that the interstellar war is not a joke, and defeat means the destruction of the country and the clan.

"Hello everyone, I think there must be many people here who know my name, but there are also many people who don't know who I am, so I will introduce myself first, named Li Xingyu, Li of Muzi Li, Yu of the Star Universe of the Starry Sky, is an academician of the two academies of the Ming Empire, and now serves as the top person in charge of the Yongan Group Space Vehicle Development Center.

The purpose of my visit today is to introduce to you the technological level of the other party's probes and the planets where the other party's civilization may be located.

Look, the speed of the other party's detector is about 1/10 of the speed of light, so at this speed, the other party civilization says that the users are obviously controllable nuclear fusion energy, and the other party's mastery of this kind of technology is also relatively mature, because the other party's detector has been able to operate safely from takeoff to the present without any failure.

But according to the size of the other party's detector, the other party's detector is more than 100 meters long and more than 10 meters in diameter, so the other party's controllable nuclear fusion technology may not be as good as ours, after all, our most advanced space detector can reach the level of 40% of the speed of light, and the size is much smaller than theirs.

And according to the communication technology we used to detect the other party, it is still the electromagnetic wave communication we used more than ten years ago.

In terms of weapons, according to the detection of radar, the opponent uses an attack method similar to that of an electromagnetic cannon, but it is obvious that the other party is not an electromagnetic railgun, which can be seen from the miniature meteorite it destroyed in front of him, because the power of this weapon is not as great as that of the electromagnetic railgun, because his weapon does not have the ability to destroy meteorites with a diameter of more than 100 meters.

With a weapon of the same size, we humans can directly destroy meteorites with a diameter of thousands of meters, so I can be sure that the other side is not as good as us humans in this regard. ”

"And the direction and location of the other civilization, after our scientists' inference, unanimously believe that the other civilization is about 4.22 light years away from our solar system, Proxima Centauri, because this probe flew from that direction, and the speed of the probe is only 1/10 of the speed of light, most of the rest of the planets in this direction are tens of light years away, so it is impossible to have other positions except Proxima Centauri.

Proxima Centauri is the closest star system to the solar system, he belongs to the Centaur constellation C, the Centauri constellation he has a total of three stars are A, B and C, and Proxima Centauri is C, it is a red dwarf, about 1/8 of the Sun, 15 times the diameter of Jupiter.

Although we don't know how this intelligent civilization lived in Proxima Centauri, after all, it seems to us that Proxima Centauri cannot have any living beings, but in fact they did come from Proxima Centauri.

That's all we know now, and the more specific situation will only be known when we send probes to each other's systems. After finishing speaking, Li Xingyu also sat down.

After Li Xingyu sat down, the supreme head of the Ming Empire's military, Bingbu Shangshu, stood up, and then said loudly: "After our Ming Empire cabinet, the military, and the royal family and the royal family have jointly negotiated, now I announce that the Ming Empire will expand its army by 15 million this year, the alert level of the Ming Empire will be raised to yellow, all resources will begin to tilt in the military direction, and all shipbuilding units will start to produce various types of spaceships from this year." After finishing speaking, everyone, including Zhu Lei, stood up, and then began to walk to the outside of the conference room in an organized manner.

But at this time, the reporters and news media sitting inside have not yet reacted, after all, this news is too significant, the expansion of the army is 15 million, you must know that now all the military personnel of the Ming Empire add up to less than 6 million, that is to say, the military personnel of the Ming Empire will be tripled this year, and all the production materials have begun to tilt in the military direction, that is to say, the Ming Empire has begun to mobilize initially from now on.

The next day, all the people in the Ming Empire began to boil, after all, the news released by the press conference of the Ming Empire was so shocking that the people couldn't digest it for a while.

At this time on the Internet, Ye quarreled all over the world, and major media also reported on this matter, and the official news of the Ming Empire reported on the press conference in detail, and at the end of the six big words "Resist or submit"

In fact, the high-level leaders of the Ming Empire, including Zhu Lei himself, all knew that this press conference would definitely cause an uproar, but the disclosure of this matter was the result of the collective discussion of the Ming Empire, and the result could not be changed by the will of some people, and Zhu Lei himself also agreed with this opinion very much, after all, there is only one country left in the Ming Empire on the earth now, and the object of this war is no longer the same as before.

And although Zhu Lei doesn't know the specific scientific and technological situation of the other party's civilization, no matter what the strength of the other party is in the cosmic war, all the Ming Empire has to do is to do its best to win this war, after all, the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, not to mention the war between the two civilizations.

Therefore, although the mobilization for war will have a very significant impact on the economy, it is necessary.

And unlike the people, in the next four years, the Ming Empire will expand to a total of 80 million, and this number is still the smallest number, depending on the situation, that is to say, the Ming Empire will expand its army by at least 80 million in the next few years, and if the situation is not too good, this number will be even larger, and even the number of troops will be calculated in hundreds of millions.
