857 Cosmic Reef

As long as the earth is still there, when humans can defeat the Atlanteans, the earth will still be human. But if you can't give up the earth now, once the earth is destroyed by the Atlanteans, it won't be something that can be restored in tens or hundreds of years.

Of course, no one can guarantee that all the civilians will be found, and even with the best efforts, there will still be people stranded on Earth, but I believe that as long as the number is not very large, it will not attract the attention of the Atlanteans.

At this point, most of the counteroffensive campaign was completed, and the remaining task of the land forces on all sides was no longer to exterminate the scattered remnants of Atlantis, but to protect the civilians who were gathered and waiting to be evacuated.

In fact, there is no need for countries to be in a hurry, even if the Atlanteans have already received the news of the human counterattack, they have more than half a year to slowly transfer the humans on the earth.

It's just that the high-level leaders of various countries have had enough of the Atlanteans, and if they leave for a minute, their hearts will be put down for a minute.

December 8, 2217, in geosynchronous orbit, the flagship of the expeditionary force, the Hometown.

"Let's start the meeting." Xu Shijie's majestic gaze swept across the venue, and the hundreds of captains present were concentrated, all eyes focused on him.

In the huge venue, in addition to Ye Fei and other senior commanders who stayed on the earth and the captains of various ships, the other more than 200 captains participated in the meeting through the holographic projection system.

"Xiao Meng, you can introduce the situation." Xu Shijie commanded.

"Yes!" Meng Haoran, who had just been promoted to captain, hurriedly stood up.

Don't look at the time that Ye Fei rescued Meng Haoran for only a few days, but the review of Meng Haoran has ended.

The reason why it's so fast. One is that Ye Fei himself didn't know that he would enter the portal by mistake, and it was even more impossible for the Atlanteans to predict this result in advance, so there was no situation that ZĂ i had designed in advance.

Second, intelligence agencies widely use brainwave detectors for security review, no matter what thoughts are in the mind, they will be exposed under the detection of brainwave detectors, and it is actually a very simple matter to determine whether a person is loyal to the motherland.

He was promoted to captain because Meng Haoran was currently the only professional who was "proficient" in Atlantean, and a large number of Atlantean written materials captured in the battle needed him to translate, and a large number of prisoners also needed him to accompany him for interrogation, so the General Staff simply found Xu Shijie and directly transferred Meng Haoran to the Second Department of the General Staff

This kid has suffered for two years in fear, and it can be regarded as the time to operate.

Meng Haoran, who was full of confidence, said straight to the point: "Leaders. Based on what we have so far. Let me tell you a little bit about the Atlantis Star Country. ”

With that, he nodded to the control room next to the conference room, and a holographic star map of the Star Kingdom of Atlantis appeared beside him.

"I believe that all the leaders here have seen this star map, and our solar system is here." Meng Haoran first pointed to the small green dot below the star map. Draw a circle in the red L-shaped area above. "This is the territory of the Star Kingdom of Atlantis."

Immediately, Meng Haoran crossed the Atlantis Star Country in the direction of the solar system and said, "The point is here. The borders of the Star Kingdom of Atlantis. ”

There was silence in the conference room, and Meng Haoran didn't dare to sell it in front of so many generals, and continued: "This is a cosmic reef area that encompasses most of the Atlantis Star Kingdom. The thickness is at least fifty light years, whether it is flying from our side to the Atlantis Star Country, or coming out of it, you have to pass through here, and if you are not careful, it will be the end of the ship's destruction and death. ”

As soon as the call sheet fell, almost half of the captains of the ship sent out a signal at the same time to ask to speak, and the indicator light almost dazzled their eyes.

Xu Shijie did not allow any captain to speak, but said unhurriedly: "I want to ask what is the cosmic reef, right?" Xiao Meng! ”

Meng Haoran agreed and continued: "We just asked the news from the mouth of the captive, but what exactly the cosmic reef is not very clear until now, this word is a literal translation of Atlantea. However, according to the prisoners' confessions, there are two possibilities for the reef area. ”

"One possibility is a dense cluster of stars, meaning that there are few or no stars, but are filled with brown dwarfs, giant planets, and other non-luminous objects, and the warship flies into the reef at the speed of light, and is likely to crash headfirst into an invisible star. It's safe to enter by regular flight, but flying over the reef for 50 light-years takes a lot of time, and it's not worth the cost. ”

"What about the other possibility?" Xu Shijie asked at the right time.

"Another possibility is that this area is full of dark matter, but the scientific community has very limited research on dark matter, and it is not clear what dark matter is, so we think the second case is very unlikely." Meng Haoran said eloquently, "No matter what the cosmic reef is, we now at least know that this is a very dangerous star field, and the construction of the second department is the fleet, and it is best not to enter it rashly." Chief, I'm done. ”

Xu Shijie nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's go down." ”

"Yes!" Meng Haoran stood up and saluted, returned to his place and sat down.

Everyone looked at Xu Shijie suspiciously, not knowing what he meant by asking Meng Haoran to talk about this.

The captains who participated in the deep space program were all secretly glad that they didn't fly in this direction back then, otherwise they don't know how many people died in an unknown way.

Among them, Ye Fei was one of the last few people to be afraid, because the distance between the Thin Scale Star Domain and the reef area was only a few hundred light years, and he was one of the captains who were closest to the reef area at the beginning.

"You all look at me together, do you all want to ask me what I mean by telling you this?" Xu Shijie glanced around, "In addition to the information that Xiao Meng said, we also know that there is a safe passage in this reef area, and it is this passage that sneaks up on the Atlantis teleportation ship in the solar system. Otherwise, if they want to think of Earth, they will have to go around it from other directions, at least 200 light-years. ”

Xu Shijie paused and said: "There are two reasons for summoning you here, one is to tell you the general area of the reef area, the area of activity of the fleet is getting bigger and bigger, and it is necessary to avoid meaningless losses; The second is to arrange the next combat mission, Ye Fei! ”

"Here!" Ye Fei hurriedly stood up.

"We've got the location of that passage, and I need your fleet to finish repairing it and rush to the reef area to block it." Xu Shijie said, "It's up to you to decide what to do, and I don't interfere." Also, have your fleet take a bunch of mechs and build a fortress at the exit of the passage with local materials to stop this hidden danger once and for all. (To be continued......)
