One Thousand and Eighty-Seven We Must Race Against Time

"Happy!" The officers on the bridge shouted in unison, all of them blushing and necking with excitement.

Duan Zhiyang laughed: "Look at you, are you yelling like shit? You are all like second-rate idiots, and you are not afraid of making people laugh when you say it!"

Staff Officer Xu replied with a smile: "Captain, you are the leader, you can't escape us, let alone you!"

Duan Zhiyang laughed again: "Okay, it's rare to have fun once, so what's wrong with the second time? I'm happy with it!"

Staff Officer Xu said again: "Captain, is it time to send a message? Don't let the foreigners get there first."

"What are you afraid of? He must be able to snatch it away!" Duan Zhiyang said this, and his movements were not slow. He immediately opened the communication system, took a deep breath and said: "I am Duan Zhiyang, the captain of the Chinese Expeditionary Force Beihai. Hereby, on behalf of all the officers and soldiers of the expeditionary force, I would like to announce to all mankind that the combined fleet has destroyed Ganymede at 15:22 on July 14, 2030. I hereby declare!”

Before he finished speaking, thunderous applause suddenly sounded from the bridge.

For some reason, Duan Zhiyang suddenly felt a soreness in his nose and a little wetness in his eyes.

Not only Duan Zhiyang, but also the other officers on the bridge were not much better, as well as other officers and soldiers at various positions on the battleship, the Nanzhou fleet group and even Beiyuezhou who received the news...

Don't call them emotional, as a soldier, you can endure any physical pain, but soldiers are also human beings, and there are times when they can't help themselves.

The news of the destruction of Ganymede caused a sensation in the human world driven by radio waves. Officials publicized it, people talked a lot, and videos taken by major observatories and space stations were reposted crazily... People were happy and excited about this, It was like a stimulant given to all mankind, driving all mankind into madness. The four battleships participating in the war and all the officers and soldiers on board almost became idols of all mankind.

Many celebrities have spoken highly of this battle. Many people believe that the destruction of Ganymede is likely to be a turning point in this interstellar war. For this war, its significance is no less than the atomic bombs dropped by the US military on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. !

But this statement was immediately questioned by the public. Although the destruction of Ganymede is indeed exciting, can it end this war?

The answer is obviously no. Ganymede is not the only territory occupied by aliens. There are still alien activities on Europa, Callisto and even Io.

What worries the top brass even more is that the attack fleet failed to destroy all the giant ships escaping Jupiter. One of them successfully escaped the fleet's pursuit and was heading towards Saturn.

Can aliens gain a foothold on Saturn? This question shouldn't be asked at all. It should be about how long it will take for aliens to gain a foothold.

Although human aerospace technology has made great progress, the expedition to Jupiter is already very difficult, and the distant Saturn is still beyond the reach of humans.

Expedition to Saturn?

It's not impossible, but it means double the expedition time and double the material consumption. If there is enough preparation time, it is completely possible to continue to implement the expedition plan, attack the aliens who have relocated to Saturn, and limit the development of aliens.

But at this juncture when the alien fleet is approaching, is it meaningful to discuss an expedition to Saturn? Rather than discussing this issue, it is better to think about how to deal with the coming alien fleet.

There were also discordant voices among the praises. Some idiots actually publicly declared that if they did not send a fleet to expedition to Jupiter, the alien fleet would not be defeated. Such negative remarks.

Anyone who knows a little bit about the situation knows that the decision was made only after the expedition to Jupiter discovered the alien fleet. This irresponsible idea is really speechless.

But there is no shortage of mentally retarded people in this world at any time. Although they look normal, their brain circuits will never match those of normal people.

To put it in a more understandable way, they are psychopaths disguised as normal.

Countries have not hesitated to suppress such negative remarks, and those involved have been dealt with harshly and swiftly. Most of them have been severely sentenced for crimes against humanity, and they have basically been shot.

Many people vigorously supported the harsh sentence, and their comments were extremely sharp: They know the virtues of aliens but they still keep kneeling and licking them. It would not be pitiful for such people to be shot a thousand times or ten thousand times. It is a pity that they only have one life. No matter what No matter how hateful he is, he can only be shot once.

Shortly after the destruction of Ganymede, a piece of news came out from nowhere, claiming to have received first-hand information from Ganymede, saying that the reason why the alien fleet turned around and flew to the earth was not because Ganymede was destroyed by humans. , but because when the human fleet attacked Ganymede, the alien high-level officials fled Ganymede on a giant ship. As a result, the giant ship was sunk by the attacking fleet.

The news said that it had noses and eyes, which also attracted the attention of some people. However, various versions of alien news soon appeared on the Internet, suppressing this news of unknown origin.

All kinds of weird extraterrestrial news quickly aroused the public's disgust. It didn't take long for all kinds of extraterrestrial news to be overwhelmed by the overwhelming information... Well, the strong suppression of the network department played a major role.

There are still more than four months before the alien fleet will arrive on Earth. At this time, it is no longer important why the aliens came. What is important is how to deal with the coming crisis!

Time is really too short. Countries are launching emergency plans as quickly as possible, but there are not many people who have confidence in mankind. The situation in various countries is in turmoil. A large number of dignitaries try to escape to the moon through the space elevator, which in turn aggravates the turmoil. degree.

But the space elevator is not something that can be used at any time. Since its establishment, its most important function has been to transport military supplies.

So applications for the use of the orbital elevator flew into Beidu and Washington like snowflakes - there are already two orbital elevators on Earth, and Beiyuezhou recently delivered the second orbital elevator to the International Base.

China and the United States rejected all external applications without hesitation, dispatched fleets to blockade the island, and made every effort to ensure the transportation of military supplies.

At this time, everything must give way to the military, including privileges.

Not only are the orbital elevators operating at full capacity, but the spacecraft at the Qiongzhou Launch Center and Cape Canaveral are also launched at an unprecedented density.

Beiyuezhou, Nanyuezhou and the International Base are operating at full capacity, with people stopping but equipment not stopping, and production is non-stop 24 hours a day.

But time is too tight. It is impossible to build a few warships in four months. We must think of other ways to fight aliens.

Various ground-based air defense weapons were immediately sought after by various countries, and land-based and sea-based laser weapons were the focus of development in various countries... Fortunately, human laser technology is already very mature, with no shortage of technology or resources. The only problem is that we have to race against time.
