I never imagined that the third quadrant would actually turn around and run away, which was clearly because they had also detected the detailed information of the saints, and they found that the saints were actually so powerful, and they might be much stronger, and they felt that there was no possibility of defeat, so they chose to flee.

Before the expedition, Dongfang summoned the officers of the General Staff to conduct intelligence analysis and strategic deployment. Colonel Xu Fuhang, who had been the chief of staff, was already 80 years old at this time. The officers of the staff department had changed batch after batch, and Xu Fuhang came to the conference room on crutches and began to connect with the Dawn group.

Dongfang asked for your opinions, and Xu Fuhang was the first to speak: "I think we should pursue, and it is urgent, pursue immediately!" The third quadrant, starting from the native Tribulation Star, has gone through more than 600 years, and a lot of resources have been consumed, especially their population.

"I guess, even if they're not on the verge of depletion, they're starting to experience a strain. So we can choose to pursue, and we can pursue it with all our might. Some people will say that the speed of both of us is 0.1X, and although the third quadrant has undergone a large arc orbit change, we still can't catch up.

"I can tell you, it doesn't matter if you can't catch up, we can keep chasing them, they've been flying for more than 600 years, we have plenty of resources, they can't wear us down. It may be a long chase, but sooner or later, we will catch up with them when they run out of resources. Even if we can't catch up with them, we have a lot of advantages of our own, we are chasing them, and we can change lanes and leave at any time. ”

Some remarks, some are in favor of, some are against, and there are reasons for opposition, believing that such a decision is a kind of game, and it is irrational to play a game with the future of civilization.

Dongfang made a summary and said: "I still agree with Minister Xu's opinion, that is, pursuit, but the way of pursuit is still the kind I once said: divide our forces into two parts, one part of which is led by me, and the other part is led by Shangguan, stay in the solar system and continue to exploit resources." Come to think of it, the solar system, the galaxy with such abundant resources, would be a pity to abandon it. However, I would like to remind Shangguan to do a good job of intelligence work around the solar system at all times, and to be prepared to evacuate in time once the situation is discovered. ”

Shangguan replied: "Yes, sixth brother, I will be very careful." ”

"Well, we must always put the safety of humanity in the most important position in our memory."

"Yes, Sixth Brother!"

"Also," Dongfang said, "Shangguan, you still have to continue to develop the size of the team, and you can't stop developing because of my departure." ”

"Yes, Sixth Brother, I understand."

Just like that, everything was decided, and a date was chosen, and the Saints Expeditionary Force officially set off, leaving the Earth, leaving the solar system, and embarking on an interstellar journey to pursue the third quadrant. The size of the expeditionary force includes: 512 fighter regiments, 128 industrial regiments, and 256 modules of the Dawn 1 module, including a population of 400,000.

Of the 512 fighter regiments, #001机团的旗甲是麒麟号, the central computer Vostok A6. #002机团旗甲青龙号, Liu Haoxuan, the central computer. #004机团旗甲朱雀号, Central Computer Tang Yujie, #005机团旗甲玄武号, Central Computer Blues. The other 508 clusters are controlled by their own computers, connected to the same optical quantum network as the Dawn team, controlled by the Dawn team, and finally controlled by Dongfang A6.

On the side of the Earth Defenders, #002机团旗甲白虎号, the central computer is on the official Nana. Shangguan guards the earth. The Dawn 2 module has a total of 256 modules, and the population of 400,000 has also been retained. Shangguan's task is to expand the size of the defenders, vigorously exploit resources, and protect the survival and safety of the remaining humans.

The 512 regiments of the expeditionary force are scattered all over the solar system, and after the order to go out in the east, these regiments set off from their positions in the third quadrant at the same time, and the east coordinates the speed of each group, and finally assembles in the outer part of the solar system, and then pursues the enemy with all its might.

Before leaving, the Dongfang and Dawn teams witnessed the Dawn split into two parts, and many humans said goodbye in order to separate, and they knew that this parting could be ten, twenty, or forty or fifty years, or they might not see each other for the rest of their lives, so many of them felt reluctant.

In the time scale of the universe, time is really terrifying, and the word "a drop in the ocean" will seem very exaggerated.

Dongfang knew that this kind of parting of life and death was really cruel to human beings, but he couldn't help it, in order to save human beings from perishing, he had to divide the people of the Dawn World into two parts, which is what Dongfang said at the beginning that eggs can't be put in the same basket.

The Saints have built a data network based on Quark's Flowing Gold technology, the so-called Flowing Gold Quantum Network, which can theoretically achieve real-time over-distance communication in any corner of the galaxy, including video, audio and digital information exchange.

Therefore, no matter how far apart the Saint Expeditionary Force and the remaining army are, the information exchange will arrive instantly, and there is no delay in distance. To use an inappropriate analogy, if the expeditionary force is 10 light-years away from Earth, then one of the players in Dawn One under its jurisdiction can team up with another player in Dawn 2 on Earth to farm quests and fight monsters.

When the Saints Expeditionary Force began its expedition, Dongfang was connected with Shangguan alone to exchange information flows. Dongfang said with a little guilt: "I'm sorry Nana, it's cruel to leave you alone." ”

Shangguan said: "It's okay, Sixth Brother, although I stayed alone, but now, am I the queen of the earth?" Haha, the entire earth and even the entire solar system are ruled by me, Shangguan Nana. ”

"If you can be so optimistic, then I'm relieved," Dongfang said, "You know Nana, you are the person I trust the most, and the most capable person in the Dawn group, except for me, of course, haha." So I chose to let you stay. ”

"Uh-huh, yes, my sixth brother is the most capable one in the Dawn group, and Shangguan Nana is the second!" Shangguan echoed, "Also, Sixth Brother, look, even if we don't stay, I'll go on an expedition with you, won't the two of us only communicate through the flow of information?" And now, the two of us are also information flows, but the distance is just a distance. So, in terms of space, no matter how far away you are from me, ideologically, we are close at hand. ”

"Yes, Nana."

"Come on, Sixth Brother, let's work together for the survival and continuation of mankind!"
