Chapter 255 A Difficult Start

The Zerg Emperor left with the Zerg troops, temporarily eliminating the threat that was close at hand. Although Qi Yiming felt sorry for the loss of the fleet, there was nothing he could do.

As long as humans escape into the vast sea of ​​stars, it would not be so easy for the Zerg to find them.

After sending warships back to the advance fleet to notify the special frigates left there to send induction signals, several warships in better condition were left to clean up the battlefield, and the rest of the warships were all recovered into the Xuefeng for repair.

More than a month later, the Xuefeng finally reunited with the advance fleet again.

In the following half a month, the evacuation fleet of the New Federation crossed the border of human forces one after another and reunited with Qi Yiming who was waiting for them.

When three giant colonial ships appeared in Qi Yiming's field of vision, the fleet of the New Federation was completely on the road to escape.

After a short rest, Qi Yiming discussed some evacuation details with several senior officials of the New Federation. After the fleet completed the course calibration, the advance fleet set off again.

This time, the Xuefeng super flagship did not follow the advance fleet, but a frigate that could send out induction signals joined the advance fleet.

Qi Yiming came to the giant colonial spaceship named Hope to listen to the work reports of various administrative departments of the New Federation.

First of all, the logistics department that Wang Sen was in charge of was the work that Qi Yiming was most concerned about.

Wang Sen cleared his throat and said to Qi Yiming with a worried look: "The situation is not optimistic, because we have taken in a large number of refugees from the Turing Republic and the Taro Empire, and the supplies we originally prepared will not last long."

Qi Yiming nodded, he could imagine these problems.

When preparing supplies, Wang Sen did not prepare extra supplies because the Turing Republic and the Taro Empire clearly stated that they would not lead the people to join the evacuation plan.

But plans are not as good as changes. After the Turing Republic sent a fleet to fight the Zerg, the attitudes of the two countries suddenly changed, but at this time the evacuation fleet of the New Federation was already on the way.

Even if Wang Sen racked his brains and tried his best to collect supplies along the way, because of the chaotic state of the two countries, Wang Sen could not actually collect much supplies.

"Tell me about the status of the three colony ships." Qi Yiming motioned Wang Sen to continue.

"Except for Hope and Holy Light, which are running well, Yunhuan Federation's Yunhuan has no other functions except for living. Therefore, the mood of the people living on Yunhuan is very bad. A little accident will cause a big riot. So far, the security forces of Yunhuan Federation have carried out more than ten suppressions, and more than a thousand people have died."

"Is the internal construction not completed yet?" Qi Yiming asked Wang Sen in surprise.

Wang Sen shook his head: "Since the evacuation, the construction progress has been extremely slow, mainly because everyone is panicking, and most people have no mind to work."

"This won't work. This kind of voyage will become the norm in the future. We have to find a way to appease people..."

But it's easy to say, but it's a lot to do.

Qi Yiming thought for a while and continued to say to Wang Sen: "Recruit construction workers from Yunhuan and tell them that if they want a comfortable living environment, they have to do it themselves."

Wang Sen wrote down Qi Yiming's order.

Next was Wang Shuhua's report: "The situation of the fleet is still optimistic, because the two giant colonial ships have production lines for producing energy blocks, so there is no need to worry about the energy problems of each warship for the time being, but the fleet size is much larger than expected before the evacuation."

"How many more warships are there?" Qi Yiming heard a piece of news that was not too bad.

"At present, the evacuation fleet has 1.1 million warships of various types, 51,100 battleships, 143,415 battlecruisers, and most of the remaining warships are cruisers. The destroyers and frigates add up to less than 20,000."

Qi Yiming nodded after listening: "Each warship must store a certain amount of combat energy blocks, and it cannot be used until it is absolutely necessary."

Wang Sen suddenly interrupted: "There are some problems with the energy block production line. The two colonial ships are also stretched to the limit in supplying life energy. If the production line continues to operate, it will seriously affect the operation of the colonial ship itself."

"I remember the giant well-known ship Isn't the power source antimatter? How could such a problem arise? "

"It is antimatter, but our power reactor is not capable of collecting antimatter on its own. We must rely on antimatter collectors, but these collectors are disposable, and the basic materials used to make collectors are also used less and less."

"Shouldn't this kind of thing be stockpiled in large quantities?"

"I have stockpiled a lot of materials, but considering our long journey later, with only this little bit of supplies, I can't guarantee that we can hold on until we reach our destination."

"Leave this issue to the Academy of Sciences." Qi Yiming looked at Shi Shaojie, who had been sitting next to him and had not spoken much.

Shi Shaojie said in embarrassment: "The production of antimatter collectors requires a large amount of Dulongte super alloy. This alloy needs to be synthesized artificially. At present, it can only be synthesized in the laboratory, and the minerals for producing this alloy are also seriously insufficient."

Qi Yiming rubbed his temples. He had thought through all the situations as much as possible before setting off, but there were still so many problems to be solved.

This is just the beginning. If we sail for a few hundred years, the problems at that time will definitely be several times more than now.

"Is there any way to improve the power reactor so that it can provide energy for the spacecraft while collecting antimatter in the universe?"

Shi Shaojie thought for a while before continuing: "The technological heritage of the former human federation seems to mention a design structure of a power furnace, but that is all pre-research technology, still in the theoretical stage. Even if it is analyzed, we still need to continue research before we can get results."

"Select some people to do the research and analyze the pre-research results first." Qi Yiming knew that the technological heritage of the former human federation was not omnipotent. Many things were just a feasibility report. If they wanted to have results, they still had to rely on their own research.

Otherwise, the former human federation would not have given up a large number of fleets on the way to escape because of energy problems.

"How are those small colonial ships?" Qi Yiming asked the colonial fleet behind the fleet again.

"At present, the situation is not bad, but some warships have too many people crammed in, and the internal environment is a little poor." Ye Lu is the person in charge of this fleet. After hearing Qi Yiming's question, he immediately stood up and answered.

Qi Yiming nodded and looked at Fang Min again: "How are the emotions of our citizens of the New Federation?"

"The emotions are relatively stable, because we have more time to evacuate. Although some things happened during the evacuation, they are generally under control."

Qi Yiming's face did not show much emotional fluctuation. He looked around and said to everyone in a firm voice: "On the way to escape, our biggest enemy is no longer the Zerg. Our fleet is too small a target in the vast sea of ​​stars, and it is difficult for the Zerg to find us."

Everyone nodded thoughtfully.

Qi Yiming continued: "Our biggest enemy on the road will be ourselves, so everyone must cheer up, especially the Academy of Sciences. It can be said that how far our bowl-trapping fleet can go depends entirely on the speed of your Academy of Sciences' research results."

Shi Shaojie understood what Qi Yiming said. He looked at Qi Yiming with a firm look, as if to tell Qi Yiming that he could rest assured that the Academy of Sciences had me.
