At this moment, as the concealment state was lifted, the space communication equipment that had been out of service for several years and almost became a decoration could finally be activated. So the next moment, Li Heng and his comrades heard the sound from the radio.
There were many noisy sounds coming from the room.
"Comrades, we haven't seen each other for several years..."
Recalling the faces of his close friends who trained together, worked and lived together, Li Heng's eyes couldn't help but turn a little red.
"I just don't know how many of my comrades are still alive..."
In the Feilong battleship, Wei Ming looked at the numbers in front of him quietly, motionless.
Every time one of our own warships receives the call, releases its hiding state, and activates its communication equipment, it will immediately send a report message to the Feilong battleship that temporarily serves as the flagship of the fleet. And every time such a report message is received, the counter in front of Wei Ming
The number above will be increased by one.
At this moment, the numbers on the counter are beating rapidly.
It increased quickly at first, but slowed down after a while.
Wei Ming knew that part of this was due to communication delays.
Because our own warships are in different locations and at different distances from each other, communication delays are unavoidable. For example, it takes 20 seconds for a spacecraft 3 million kilometers away from you to receive the call and send the report information to reach you.
.
If the distance is expanded to 30 million kilometers, the time will be extended to more than three minutes.
However, I don't think there will be any further distance than this number. Because if the distance is too long, it is equivalent to leaving the battlefield.
Time passed little by little, and the number finally settled on 3156. And, so far, 10 minutes have passed.
Theoretically, even excluding the time loss of manual operations, comrades within 60 million kilometers away from you should have sent reporting information.
This means that... after this, it is almost impossible for any more spacecraft to report to us. This means that the number 3156 has a high probability of being all of our own surviving warships.
Looking at this number, Wei Ming had an unspeakable thought in his heart.
He clearly remembered that the total number of spaceships that had left the main body of the civilized fleet and participated in this war was 4,986.
There are a full 1830 human warships that have not been reported to themselves. They, and the outstanding human warriors they carry - the number may be as high as about 100,000, and there is a high probability that they have rested in the starry sea.
At this moment, with the Feilong battleship as the core, bright flashes of light were everywhere in the surrounding star field.
Those are the bright tail flames ejected by various types of spaceships maneuvering at full speed and the engines working at full power. This makes them as conspicuous as fireflies in the dark night.
In the next few days, a total of 3,156 warships completed the assembly.
Some of these spaceships have tattered surfaces and are riddled with holes, and there are at least hundreds of repair marks on the surface. Some engines seem to have malfunctions, and their propulsion is intermittent, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, and it takes a long time.
It took Da Jin to complete the maneuvering assembly goal. Some spacecraft even had a big hole directly broken, and they were only covered with some special plastic and some tape, and even the internal light could not be blocked.
Even a spacecraft whose surface is generally intact still has various craters and explosion marks.
All kinds of malfunctions, all kinds of damage. At this moment, more than 3,000 spacecraft gathered here, it was like opening an exhibition of malfunctions and damage.
If there was a spacecraft maintenance expert here at this moment, he would probably shed tears.
After the communication shield was lifted, the captains of dozens of "Mercury" class warships formed a temporary military committee and elected a temporary military committee chairman to be fully responsible for follow-up matters.
As expected, due to his outstanding performance in the early stage, Wei Ming obtained this position and became the temporary supreme leader of the human fleet.
Under his command, more professionals entered the space carrier. At the same time, some prisoners were also recruited to help humans fully master the carrier more quickly and conveniently, and become familiar with its interior.
The operating mechanism has initially acquired the ability to be used by me.
During this process, statistics on various damages and failures have also been completed. A large number of severely damaged spacecraft were prioritized and arranged to be repaired in the dock. Some lightly damaged spacecraft, as well as some of the ships, were surrendered after identification.
The enemy warships piloted by the more willing enemy submen set off together and began to clean up the battlefield.
Its specific tasks include collecting various materials that were previously distributed, recovering various types of spacecraft wreckage and equipment, searching for human spacecraft wreckage, etc.
And, after confirming that the enemy ship was completely under control, two vital messages were sent.
One was sent in the form of a broadcast, and its target was the human space carrier that was hidden further away and was mainly responsible for dropping standard resource boxes and providing supplies for the human fleet. Wei Ming informed them that the war was over and human civilization had achieved the final victory.
Victory. Now, it is time to gather here and jointly plan the return voyage.
Another piece of information is directly aimed at the main fleet of human civilization.
At this moment, the light emitted by the main body of the human civilization fleet due to acceleration can be clearly seen even through relatively rudimentary observation equipment. There is no way, their tail flames are too bright, and they are not related to the group of interstellar molecules they are in.
The interaction of clouds is also too obvious.
Gu Ba
This message also reported the development of the war situation, informed that our side had completely won the victory, and asked for instructions on how to arrange the next step of returning home.
At this moment, the distance between the two sides has reached more than 200 billion kilometers. The two-way communication delay is as high as about ten days.
Now, this piece of information starts running forward at the speed of light.
At this moment, in the main control room of the Yuanhang-1 spacecraft, the main body of the human civilization fleet, Zhao Changxing is concentrating on reading a document.
The name of the document is "Six Possible Applications of Super Electromagnetic Acceleration Technology in Weapon Systems."
This is a paper.
After watching for a long time, Zhao Changxing sat up straight, his expression still calm.
He still maintains the habit of studying a lot to improve himself as in every previous voyage. Even at this moment, all the fighting forces of human civilization have been invested in a war hundreds of billions of kilometers away.
Even at this moment, there is almost no protective force around these 41 Yuanhang spacecraft.
Millions of humans who are awake are worried about the war situation in the distance every moment, including Zhao Changxing. But Zhao Changxing knows that the chips have been put down, and no matter what the outcome is, he can only accept it. Worry and anxiety have no effect.
.
It is better to put this time on continuing to study.
Time passed peacefully. However, the longer time passed, the heavier and more oppressive the atmosphere that enveloped each Voyage spacecraft became.
I don’t know how long it’s been since I heard relaxed and hearty laughter.
Zhao Changxing knew the tremendous pressure people were under, but there was nothing he could do about it.
"Why."
With a slight sigh, Zhao Changxing stood up and planned to conduct today's routine inspection. But at this moment, the secretary suddenly looked excited and rushed over with his face twisted.
Zhao Changxing frowned slightly: "What's the matter?"
"Battle report, battle report, we have received the battle report...Victory, we have won! Leader, we have won!"
"What?! Send me the battle report quickly."
At this moment, Zhao Changxing's heart suddenly jumped.
The battle report was immediately sent to Zhao Changxing's portable computer. After opening it, Zhao Changxing's attention immediately focused on it.
"Guerrilla warfare, lurking, harassment, concealment, not confronting the enemy head-on, forbearance, waiting for opportunities, changes in the battle situation, chaos, collapse, occupation..."
The battle report is extremely detailed, with a total number of tens of thousands of words, describing in detail all the important events from the beginning of the war to the final victory of one's side.
"Not only did he win, but he also completely occupied the enemy's space carrier? A true third-level civilization's space carrier? He also captured millions of alien humans, including about 20,000 people? This, this..."
At this moment, even with Zhao Changxing's state of mind, he couldn't help but get excited.
No matter how broad Zhao Changxing's strategic vision was and no matter how far his strategic vision was, he could not have predicted the current situation.
I don’t know how many strategic deductions, people generally believe that the best situation is to finally force the enemy fleet back and make it give up the pursuit and choose to return. Now, now, even the enemy’s air carrier is captured.
Already?
The value of a true space carrier of a third-level civilization must be inestimable. Compared with it, the armed mining ship brought by Villagash - now transformed into the Yuanhang No. 1 spacecraft - is simply
It's as worthless as scrap metal.
Back in the era of Earth's nations, it was simply equivalent to comparing an armed fishing boat to an aircraft carrier.
The harvest this time is really huge. Zhao Changxing is even sure that after getting this space carrier, as long as he can successfully reach the new galaxy and get supplies, there will be almost no chance of truly entering the third-level civilization.
Obstacle.
only……
Seeing that more than a thousand battleships failed to report in the end, and that as many as 100,000 human warriors were sleeping in the sea of stars, Zhao Changxing felt a little heavier in his heart.
"Put this information out." Zhao Changxing said: "Our people have been suppressed for too long. It's time to relax."
"In addition, call Wei Ming immediately and ask him to do his best to search for the relics of the martyrs and be sure to bring back the main body of the fleet. At the same time, we will start the deceleration process and wait for them to join us.
Tell the soldiers that human civilization is eagerly awaiting their return."
