Technological Supremacy Chapter 609: The 2nd Fleet and the artificial wormhole
In order to hurry up, the expedition fleet of the Galen Empire was once divided into two. Mel led the large-scale starship equipped with a high-magnification warp-speed engine to advance into the solar system first, while those small, old, and insufficiently fast The starships that were left behind were pieced together into the Second Fleet.
In October of the ninth year of Star Technology's founding, two months after the end of the first Earth Defense War, the second fleet of the Galen Empire also entered the solar system.
They consist of seventy-nine small and medium-sized starships, most of which are auxiliary ships, such as electronic warfare starships, small bomber starships, communication relay starships, and so on.
Although this fleet has no frontal combat capability, they have the same advanced curtain stealth system as the main fleet, so they were able to arrive smoothly without being noticed by the earth fleet.
After the Second Fleet dispatched a reconnaissance ship to conduct a three-day survey around the earth, the remaining commander, Wilson, announced the holding of a captain-level meeting to discuss countermeasures.
Therefore, in a remote corner outside the solar system, the captains who were leaderless gathered together full of anxiety. When Wilson walked into the meeting room, all he heard was sighs, as if Everyone is in a bad mood at the moment.
"I have passed this unfortunate news back to the empire." Wilson said straight to the point after sitting down.
The defeat of the main fleet failed to escape the investigation of Wilson and others. After all, it was 432 large and small starships. They orbited the outer earth and were being transformed by the mechanical army. A very obvious target in the solar system.
"Compared to the information obtained before, the current earth has changed too much. Robots are releasing unparalleled productivity. Maybe it won't be long before they will cover the entire solar system like a virus." A ship Chang Yong said in a fearful voice.
Others nodded in agreement. When they accelerated all the way to the solar system, what they saw was a scene like a nightmare.
The Chinese people and the mechanical legion are developing crazily, establishing mining bases and colonial bases in the solar system. Every day, tens of thousands of mechanical legions come off the production line and invest in manufacturing and construction in full swing.
If it is normal for robots to work tirelessly and desperately, what about those unbelievably hardworking Chinese people?
Facts have proved that the Huaxia Nation and the Mechanical Legion really flirt with each other.
No matter how many shortcomings you can pick out from the Chinese nation, no one can deny that in this world, the Chinese nation is the real existence of industrial spirit.
When plagues and wars strike, the Chinese nation can always show a high degree of coherence and blockade the entire territory overnight.
There are countless kinds of rights in the world, but no matter whether it is women's rights or racial equality, the right that is ultimately above all else is survival.
Perhaps the Western people can make a mess of Huaxia, but the facts have proved that when facing a major crisis, it is precisely the Chinese nation that they look down on, who are most likely to survive and can best adapt to the era of high division of labor in industrialization.
In short, the living captains of the Galen Empire have witnessed the most terrifying miracle they have ever encountered in their lives. A highly coordinated nation and a group of precision-operating robots form the most unique group in the universe.
Their characters are not ostentatious at all, they don't advocate individual heroism, and they lack acting talent. When facing the outside world, they behave introverted and shy, and they look like a group of honest people who are easy to bully.
However, this group of honest people will be crazy about infrastructure construction, crazy mining, crazy smelting, crazy manufacturing, and crazy development.
Look at this solar system, it is a mess that has been dug up now, it is too miserable, as if it has been gnawed by a vicious dog.
The Chinese nation is leading the mechanical legion and moving the development is the last word to the universe. They open roads in the mountains, build bridges in the water, and develop the manufacturing industry with great joy.
Wilson nodded and said: "I have listed the current situation of the earth and their differences, and reported them to the headquarters in detail."
"So how did the headquarters reply?" A captain asked hurriedly.
"Damn people on Earth, the empire will never swallow this breath!"
"War! Only war and blood can wash away the shame of the empire!"
The captains shouted excitedly. Although there are fixed wormholes to block them, the expedition fleet has left communication repeaters along the way. This kind of equipment is like a communication tower to help receive and strengthen signals.
The empire will send special ships across the wormhole to the galaxy every other week to receive the signal from the expedition fleet, and then bring the data to the empire.
It's a relatively stupid way, manually transporting information between the two stars, but at least it can ensure the transmission of information, and will not cause loss of contact due to distance.
Wilson glanced at everyone present with complicated eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Actually, we have lost contact with the headquarters. In the week that General Mel was defeated, the Imperial communication ship did not enter the galaxy, so so far, The empire does not know the news of the fleet's defeat, nor our investigation of the earth."
Boom~
Everyone was shocked, as if struck by lightning. It turned out that they had lost contact with the headquarters for eight weeks. In order to ensure the internal stability of the fleet, Wilson had been deliberately hiding the news.
The captains couldn't help but be confused. It is not a difficult operation to send communication ships to the galaxy every week to bring back information about the expedition fleet. , never appears.
At this moment, the expedition fleet has a long journey of one year and seven months from the empire. Even if the spaceship is sent back to the empire to inquire, it may be too late, right?
Damn it, what the **** is going on?
Just when everyone was worried about losing contact with the empire, Wilson's assistant suddenly rushed up. He ignored the meeting room etiquette and shouted directly: "My lord! Mr. Wilson! Take a look, We have detected an artificial wormhole!"
噗~
Originally planning to reprimand Wilson, who was not polite, he suddenly felt his scalp tingling. As we all know, man-made wormholes require very powerful space technology. It's really scary.
The deputy didn't wait for Wilson to react, and clapped his palm on the multimedia core. The real-time signal from the command center entered the conference room and appeared in the center of the big screen. Then the deputy hurriedly explained to everyone.
"We detected this signal about a minute ago. First, there was a strong energy concentration, followed by space disturbance and energy puncture, and finally the space disturbance quickly stabilized. According to speculation, someone used energy to accurately puncture space, artificially created A crack in space, that is, a wormhole."
"Look at this signal. It is the second flagship of the expedition fleet, the Hail. Although the Hail has been captured and refitted by the Earthlings, its overall parameters have not changed. We can clearly determine its identity. Now, the Hail The No. 1 is rapidly approaching the artificial wormhole, and seems to want to pass through the wormhole!" Wilson said loudly.
The first flagship of the Galen Empire's expeditionary fleet is Tianqing~IndoMTL.com~ However, since Tianqing is a heavy battleship, its volume is too large and does not meet the standards for this jump engine test, so Luo Jia chose The Hail, which has powerful performance but small size, was selected as the test object.
In a large fleet, there are usually a first commander and a second commander. Once the first commander is killed, the second commander will take his place.
The first commander and the second commander do not live on the same ship. In order to prevent the tragedy of all commanders once the ship crashes, there is a distinction between the first flagship and the second flagship in the fleet. , As for the acting commander Wilson at the moment, he is the third commander of the expedition fleet.
"It's passed, I really passed through the wormhole!"
"The signal is completely lost, the target has left the space!"
"Man-made wormhole? Starship crossing? God, this is not the legendary jump engine!?"
Witnessing such a miraculous scene, the meeting room suddenly set off a turbulent storm. The earth not only masters robot technology, but even has a jump engine?
This kind of guessing really scared everyone dumbfounded, and everyone was ashamed.
