Chapter 33: Casting the Bait (Page 1/1)

The week at the end of October was destined to be gray for humanity as the spaceship Eternal Glory was attacked by suspected alien beings and forced to return. Captain Wei Wei Yang died heroically in the battle, along with 134 crew members of the ship.

"As I said a long time ago, we humans are still very small compared to the entire universe, and we simply don't have the strength to explore it. It's a Pandora's box, and once opened, we're all going to be done! ”

"Why didn't the Eternal Glory report to the headquarters in advance when it sent a team to land on Planet H? Doesn't it mean that those signals sent by the other party are still being cracked? It's stupid to do anything before that! ”

"It must be their reckless behavior that angers the other party, and they are fully responsible!"

Looking at the generals who were still arguing in disappointment, Marshal Patton said helplessly: "Okay, everyone, please stop arguing."

Exploring a habitable planet is a strategy we have been implementing over the years. To this end, we have concentrated our only resources and all our scientific research efforts in the field of space research, and the living standards of our people have not improved in the slightest compared to 200 years ago, or even lower.

What is all this for, that is, for the continuation of our human race, for the sake of our tens of thousands of future generations. If we do not develop into outer space, in less than a hundred years, the only remaining resources of the earth will be gradually exhausted, our race will perish, and the entire human race will become history, and we cannot afford such sinners!

Therefore, I do not want to see anyone question the correctness of this strategy.

As for the landing, I believe in the judgment of General Wei Yang, who is an outstanding military strategist with extraordinary strategic vision, and I believe that he must have his own reasons for doing so. ”

"And!" General Patton suddenly stood up and said, "I don't want you to be disrespectful to a 65-year-old man who gave his life in battle, just the discovery of Planet H is enough to make him remember the annals of history!" ”

Seeing that Marshal Patton was a little excited, all the generals present stood up, and even the few who complained before obediently shut up.

"Alright, guys, sit down." Field Marshal Patton pressed his hand down and motioned for everyone to sit down.

"Now we should be focusing on the question of what to do next. According to the news from Eternal Glory, the enemy has sent several ships to pursue them, and if they maintain their current orbit, they will eventually descend on Earth. ”

This is another big news! However, unlike before, this time everyone did not whisper, but looked at Marshal Patton with a serious face, waiting for the leader's next instructions.

"First of all, we want to discuss the feasibility of preventing the return of eternal glory." Marshal Patton said in a deep voice.

"Why..." As soon as someone wanted to ask a question, they were pulled by the person next to them.

Patton glanced at him when he heard this, and said expressionlessly: "There is nothing to avoid, sacrificing them is also for all mankind, and the enemy does not know the coordinates of the earth yet, so I should be in time." ”

"General, I think it's very unlikely." Since Marshal Patton had made his intentions clear, it was natural that more professional personnel had made an analysis.

"Eternal Glory is currently our most advanced spacecraft, not only in terms of its magnitude and speed, but also in terms of its weaponry and defenses. It is almost impossible to prevent their return by force until they have approached the atmosphere.

The only way we can do this is to convince the ship's crew to change their course and introduce the enemy into other systems, but if we do, the people on board will not survive. ”

The general who spoke was not only a lieutenant general, but also participated in the design and manufacturing process of eternal glory, so his speech was quite authoritative.

"There is no point in destroying Eternal Glory near the atmosphere, it seems that there is only a second option." Marshal Patton immediately decided: "Connect with the Eternal Glory immediately, I want to talk to Vice Captain David!" ”

After a lengthy process of equipment adjustment, David's slightly blurry stereoscopic image was finally projected onto the conference table.

"Salute you, Marshal Patton!"

Different from the heroic appearance at the time of departure, although David's perfect and mature face still deeply attracted everyone, a closer look can still show that his whole person is exhausted, and it is obvious that the past few days have not been easy.

"Good work, my child!"

Marshal Patton naturally noticed this, but the pity was only fleeting, and it was replaced by a resolute expression on his face.

"Where are you now?"

"Report to Lord Marshal, we have just successfully destroyed one of the enemy's combat aircraft, and there are currently three more closely behind us, with the existing weapon systems on the ship, we can completely deal with it!"

"Well done, Major General David, worthy of being a disciple of Weili Yang. Sorry, I shouldn't... I'm sorry about your teacher's business. ”

A trace of sadness flashed on David's face, but it was well controlled, and he replied: "The teacher said that the best destination for a soldier is the battlefield, and I believe that he will have no regrets when he leaves." ”

"By the way, Marshal. There's one more thing I want to report to you! ”

"Please."

"Last night, all the survivors of Eternal Glory had a vote together, and considering the incalculable consequences of our return on Earth, we all decided to change course and head towards the Orion galaxy as we passed through Titan!"

David's decision can be said to have shocked everyone, thinking back to what was being discussed just now, everyone suddenly had a feeling of being a villain's heart and a gentleman's belly, and even Marshal Patton's face was a little embarrassed, he solemnly saluted David and said: "Captain David, thank you and all the survivors for your deep sense of righteousness, you are the heroes of the entire human race." ”

David also replied with a serious face: "The duty of a soldier is to defend everything that is worth protecting, so we are willing to do all this, hoping that our previous mistakes will not bring new disasters to mankind." ”

"Child, everything in the universe is unknown, you have done well enough, we are proud of you."

"No, Lord Marshal, you may not know the situation, but the team we sent sent back the most important basic data of Planet H, which has a 91% survival compatibility with Earth, which means that humans basically don't need to adjust to adapt to the environment here.

Unfortunately, the main communication system of the spacecraft has suffered serious damage, and these data can no longer be transmitted, and if there is a support for these data, the speed of human migration can be ten years earlier!

In addition, we have also found the Achilles' heel of these alien creatures, but unfortunately the combat power of Eternal Glory is not enough to annihilate them all. ”

"Wait!" Field Marshal Patton suddenly interrupted David and said with a serious face: "I need you to report in detail what you just said. ”
