The voyage of the Earth Fleet has begun. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When the fleet broke away from the outer circle of the station and broke free from the gravitational shackles of Jupiter step by step, the excitement of the people in the fleet from the beginning gradually became lost, and the feeling was like a prodigal son who was about to go away, with infinite nostalgia for his hometown.

"Report to the captain, the Earth fleet is currently in the acceleration stage, and it is expected to reach its maximum speed in thirty-two days, when it will enter the inertial cruise phase of 0.7 times the speed of light."

Xiya's projection appeared in front of Zhou Chen and a group of fleet leaders, pulling everyone back to reality from their emotions.

Zhou Chen nodded, and calmly said to Xiya: "Don't speed up yet, let the fleet maintain its current speed." Saying that, Zhou Chen looked at the people with confused faces on the side, and said with a smile: "I have a suggestion, before we go to the Poseidon Galaxy, should we make a detour to the earth and let everyone take a last look at our planet?" ”

"A detour around Earth?" Everyone was stunned after hearing this, and there was a little expectation in their eyes.

"But Captain, if you do that, you'll consume extra energy......"

Thea dutifully sent a kind reminder that at this time, the Earth and Jupiter were staggered by some distance, and because the destination was the Poseidon system, the fleet could fly directly out of the solar system.

If you go around the world, you will inevitably have to walk a small arc.

"Xiya, this is the feelings of human beings, when feelings are at one end of the scale, the other end cannot be balanced by adding a small amount of energy." Zhou Chen patiently explained.

Xiya's beautiful face showed incomprehensible confusion, but after calculation, she found that the extra energy consumption did not seem to be particularly much, so she looked at the affirmative expression on Zhou Chen's face and nodded in confirmation.

"Obey the captain, all the parameters have been generated, and the new route has been confirmed!"

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Now immediately broadcast the whole ship, let everyone go back to rest, and tell them that in eight hours, we will face the morning light of the earth and say our final goodbyes to the earth!" ”

"Okay Captain!"

As she spoke, Thea's projection disappeared, and she went to broadcast the ship's broadcast.

Xiya is the best at this kind of thing, and as the "idol" of the whole ship, there are some things that she can do and be more popular with everyone.

Regarding Zhou Chen's decision to detour to the earth, no one felt that it was inappropriate, and even in their hearts, like Zhou Chen, they also felt that they should let everyone take a look at the mother planet that gave birth to human civilization before leaving.

Zhou Chen glanced at the others in the command hall and said with a smile: "Let's go back and rest, after a busy night, everyone must be tired, just leave the matter of fleet navigation to Xiya." ”

Wise brains are convenient, they don't have to rest, they don't resist how busy they are, as long as they are given enough energy and equipped with enough combinators, they can meticulously complete the tasks assigned by their masters.

This attitude of hard work and resentment is indeed a model that all human beings should learn from.

The other high-ranking officials all nodded, thinking that they would be in a better spirit the next day, so they left the command hall one after another.

Zhou Chen stayed alone in the command hall, and then left.

……

Eight hours later, the Earth Fleet had sailed close to Earth.

Early in the morning, people invariably took to the streets, they received a notice last night, knowing that they would pass by the earth this morning, and the fleet media would broadcast the whole process live, but considering that the TV at home was too small, they wanted to see the earth tens of thousands of kilometers away through the outdoor wide projection.

At this time, the screen in public places has all switched to the picture of the earth, and thanks to the high-precision imaging technology, the earth in the screen appears so real and clear.

Command Hall.

Zhou Chen walked in with a group of people and woke up Xiya, who was in a state of silence.

"Thea, how far is it from Earth now?"

"Returning to the captain, the fleet is 120,000 kilometers away from the earth, and according to the plan, it will circle the earth for a week and then turn back, and then fly to the Poseidon system."

"Open the exterior windows of all the inhabited ships, so that everyone can see the real earth without concealment!" Zhou Chen nodded and gave an order.

"Yes!"

As Zhou Chen's order was issued, the shell armor of the sixty habiting ships suddenly underwent some changes, only to see that it was like a folding sliding door, and suddenly began to retract upwards, and after a while, a huge transparent window appeared.

With the folding of the shell armor, the vast outer space of the universe appeared in front of everyone, and at this time, through the porthole, you could see the blue planet lying quietly in the dark universe.

One side of it is illuminated by sunlight, and more and more places in the eastern hemisphere are slowly exposed to sunlight.

The blue earth, like a demure slender virgin, with low eyebrows and shallow groans and pink eyes, are all so moving.

……

At this time, the cold Qilian Mountain has been bathed in the first rays of sunshine in the morning.

At the foot of Qilian Mountain, a rickety old man carried a burden as usual, holding a water scoop, and came to the side of the tombstone halfway up the mountain, with a bamboo pole on the side of the tombstone, which had been stained with a trace of dirt by the wind and sand.

After a quiet rest, he began to water them one by one.

When you are tired, you will rest for a while, and then continue watering, so mechanical operation, in the blink of an eye, a load of water will be poured empty.

"Wife, today is said to be the day they left, I don't know where they have gone now......"

Quietly putting down the water scoop, Sang wiped the sweat from her face, and then put a portable radio next to the tombstone.

turned on the switch, but there was no sound except for the rustling noise, and Sang's wife patted it with her hand, and this trick really worked, and soon there was a news broadcast inside.

"Sand ...... Earth Federation ...... Rustling...... Morning News, Earthship ...... team, ...... Rustling...... Departure ......"

The voice is not very full, but Sang wife knows that those who have left the earth have really set off today.

"Let's hope they get the best." Sang's wife looked up at the sky and prayed in her heart.

Suddenly, she saw a series of bright lights appear in the sky, it was a long line of neatly arranged dragons, quietly moving from the eastern position, little by little, towards the west......

"Mulberry wife, Mulberry wife......"

A long call came from afar, and Sang came back to her senses, but looked at the person who ran up from the foot of the mountain with some surprise.

"Company Commander Qin, you didn't leave?"

"Well, I chose to stay!" Qin Lian Changhan smiled and bared his teeth, and said with a smile: "Anyway, I don't have parents, so I don't have anything to worry about, since the country has cultivated me, then I'll stay and take care of it." ”

"Company Commander Qin, look at the sky, that one that will be bright, isn't it?"

Mrs. Sang pointed to the sky, not convinced.

"Well, it's them." Saying that, Company Commander Qin took out his contact radio from his body and turned on the switch-

"Today, the Earth fleet is about to set sail, and the points of light in the sky are our last marks, fellow citizens on Earth: goodbye! Good bye! ”

The same words were repeated over and over again on the radio, over and over again, babbling and verbose.

"Good luck with them!"

"yes, I wish them all the best!"

On a certain dirt slope in Qilian Mountain, an old man and a young man stood and looked at the sky.

Beside them, there was a grave, a growing sapling, and a mottled national flag fluttering in the wind next to the grave.

At the top of the snowy region, the air is thin.

Outside a market town on the snowy plateau, after climbing over a small hill, there is the border of the motherland.

The vast and long national border crosses from here, and the undulating mountains have become its natural barrier, but at this time, the snowy plateau has been emptied, and the mountains seem to have lost their former majesty.

Hilltops, outposts.

The beautiful morning light has just shone here.

A one-armed old man in an old-fashioned military uniform walked out of the "outpost", with various medals of honor on his chest and a gun on his back, and was walking along a path trodden out of his feet to the top of the hillside.

The old man came to the bamboo pole, untied the rope hanging from the bamboo pole by a pulley, and then carefully took out a national flag that had been broken through a hole, strung the national flag to a wooden stick, and went up little by little along the bamboo pole.

There was no accompaniment to the national anthem, but the old man's lips were closed and he sang quietly, and when the flag was raised to the top, the old man saw a string of beautiful points of light.

And at this moment, the national anthem suddenly sounded, and turning around, a lieutenant colonel came over with a radio station that was playing accompaniment.

Fellow Citizens on Earth: Goodbye! Good bye! (To be continued.) )
