It’s not that everyone just cares about it, but whether the expedition is successful is related to whether humans can stop Europa. Whether it is successful is closely related to the safety of all mankind. Who can care less?
Soon after, news spread from within the military to the people, and various speculations and rumors spread.
However, the insect plague has been going on for several years, and the general public has long developed a mentality of not being alarmed by changes, and only a handful of people believe the rumors.
Moreover, Beidu responded very quickly and promptly released the most authoritative official news - the fourth expedition was postponed indefinitely!
As soon as the news came out, it immediately aroused public opinion.
Even if Beidou gives a later time, or even gives a vague time period, there won't be such a big reaction, but what does it mean to postpone indefinitely?
If it is postponed indefinitely now, will it be canceled directly after a while?
Just a few minutes after the news was released, Beidu felt pressure from all sides. After careful consideration, Beidu held a press conference to explain in detail the causes and consequences of such a decision in the face of public doubts.
The moment Liang Junsheng stood in front of the stage, everyone's attention was focused on him.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Liang Junsheng remained calm: "Everyone, I am the spokesperson Liang Junsheng. Let me first talk about the expedition issue that everyone is most concerned about. I believe everyone knows that the direct reason for stopping the Fourth Fleet is the failure of the Third Fleet.
The fleet formation plan is exactly the same as that of the Third Fleet. Therefore, the Third Fleet cannot deal with Europa, and the Fourth Fleet cannot do anything either. If the Fourth Fleet sets out as planned, it will be a waste of time, resources and energy. In addition,
It will not have any effect, so we have stopped the Fourth Fleet. If you have any questions, you can ask them now."
The participating reporters raised their arms in unison, and the scene seemed to grow a forest of arms.
Liang Junsheng made an inviting gesture: "This reporter."
A female reporter wearing glasses stood up: "Hello, spokesperson, your answer enlightened me. I personally think that there are very good reasons for calling a halt. I believe that any reasonable person can understand it, but what everyone is most concerned about now is
The question is whether the Fourth Fleet will still make the trip. Also, if it is convenient, can you reveal the follow-up expedition plan? Thank you."
Liang Junsheng nodded politely: "I believe that everyone here is very concerned about this issue. To be honest, it is too early to say whether the Fourth Fleet can be launched. The military is actively adjusting the structure of the Fourth Fleet and hopes that it can be launched as soon as possible.
"
"But there is also another view that the expedition fleet is too time-consuming and labor-intensive to defeat Jupiter. It is better to stop the expedition plan as soon as possible and shrink its strength to stick to the earth. This is equivalent to clenching the fist and preparing for the attack.
When Zero gets close, he punches hard and kills Zero in one fell swoop at the doorstep."
"Both views have their own truths. The advantage of keeping enemies out is to minimize risks. However, judging from the current situation, only one or two expedition fleets cannot solve Europa; bringing Europa closer
The advantage is that the distance is relatively close, and our fleet, including the international fleet, can go all out. The disadvantage is that it may endanger the earth, so the military has not yet made any further decisions...Next!"
Another wave of arms was raised, and Liang Junsheng randomly selected a reporter: "This one, do you have any questions?"
A tall and thin male reporter stood up from the audience: "Hello, spokesperson, as you said, whether we continue to implement the expedition plan or temporarily suspend the plan, we must prevent Europa from approaching. I would like to ask if the military has
There is no specific interception plan. If there is one, what kind of measures does the military plan to use? Thank you."
Liang Junsheng slowed down his speech: "As I said before, it has not yet been decided whether to continue the expedition. Naturally, there is no battle plan. However, I can tell everyone that the plan is under intense planning. I am not a soldier.
I don’t know much about military affairs, so I can’t guess what the military’s plan is. I believe that after the plan is released, the military will announce it to the public in time...The next one...this lady!"
A young female reporter with a refreshing ponytail stood up: "Mr. Spokesperson, after the news of the approach of Io, there were many speculations about Io on the Internet. Many of the speculations are specious. I would like to ask, what is the official opinion of Io?
What will be the consequences of Zero approaching? How to avoid these evil consequences? Also, I want to know where to block Europa Zero so that it does not affect the earth. Thank you."
Liang Junsheng smiled slightly: "These questions are very sharp. I don't need to explain the consequences of Jupiter's approach. To put it simply, a planet with a diameter of 8,000 kilometers has a higher density than the earth. With such a large mass, it is difficult to get close to it.
The earth will definitely cause a series of problems, such as the rise of ocean tides, climate change, the shape of continental plates, the stretching of the earth, etc., and may even cause large-scale volcanic eruptions."
"These are all detailed speculations on the Internet. I believe that the public's eyes can distinguish which ones are reasonable speculations and which ones are fabricated rumors. As for the official research results, I have not yet come into contact with them, so I will not talk about them here. So
I’ll stop talking about this topic here, I hope everyone understands.”
"As for the second question, it really stumps me. Astronomers must have a more detailed answer, but I believe that the military will not let Europa get close... Next one!"
"Hello, spokesperson, what is the purpose of Europa approaching the Earth? Is it to crash into the Earth?"
"It is still unclear and there are no research results in this area. I can only say that the result of impacting the earth will inevitably be death. We hope that the situation will not develop to that point."
"Hello, spokesperson, is the military confident about fighting Europa?"
"I cannot represent the military. This question is difficult to answer. I personally believe that the military will go all out. There is news that you may be interested in. Beiyuezhou has begun to manufacture nuclear bombs with a yield of over 100 million tons. Regardless of the expedition plan
Whether we stop it or not, these super-large-yield nuclear bombs will teach aliens a painful lesson!"
"Hello spokesperson, I would like to ask where the current location of Europa is, how long it will take until Europa arrives on Earth, and whether aliens will install planetary engines on the Galileo satellites.
, bring them here too?”
Liang Junsheng couldn't help laughing: "Io is still in the asteroid belt. At the current speed, it will take at least a year and a half. The current industrial strength of Beiyuezhou is enough for us to build several complete fleets, not to mention nuclear bombs.
Eight hundred coins are few, and we not only have the confidence, but also the strength to stop Europa... It’s almost time, that’s it for today’s press conference, thank you all.”
Liang Junsheng turned and left, leaving behind a group of reporters whispering.
