The Three-Body Problem: The Most Competent Wallfacer of All Time

Chapter 269 No matter what, Zhang Beihai can't die
As the city of Jupiter gradually stabilized, a large number of government officials were arrested and sentenced to two to ten years of hard labor on charges of dereliction of duty or omission.

After more than 40 officers and soldiers have withdrawn, the criminals will be sent to Saturn or Uranus in a unified manner to open up new colonies of the solar system countries.

At the same time, Jiang Yu also took the opportunity to complete the re-control of the solar system country, and then started from the city of Jupiter to restore the order of the colonies in the Jupiter circle.

Some people think that this is Jiang Yu's way to return to the center of power, while more people think that those who did not listen to Jiang Yu's advice and caused the loss of millions of officers and soldiers in the solar system country deserve death.

When the opinions were divided, Jiang Yu issued an announcement: "Solar system countries will not treat the losses caused by human beings due to carelessness and self-righteousness this time as if nothing happened like PDC!
"The ruling government of the solar system country will try those who have caused huge losses to the country. If they are not convicted, that is the greatest tragedy for mankind!"

That is to say, PDC is too busy to take care of itself now, otherwise Jiang Yu's announcement will be subject to protests from the earth.

While actively restoring internal affairs, Jiang Yu also asked Ai Qi to set up a deep space navigation simulation team composed of several people to calculate how long Zhang Beihai Fleet's supplies would last.

Ai Qi is someone who has been lurking in the solar system fleet for a long time. He has admired Jiang Yu since he was a child. When he was in college in Yinghuo City, he was photographed by No. [-] and started his lurking mission.

This interception operation has always been considered an epic action of human civilization, so all the middle and senior generals want to go to the front line.

Only Ai Qi was willing to stay behind after receiving the benefits from No. [-], so it was logical that he became the key to Jiang Yu regaining military power.

Now Ai Qi is the actual commander of the entire military force of the solar system country, and his loyalty to Jiang Yu is no problem.

Jiang Yu was somewhat disappointed by the calculation results of the simulation team. Eighteen light years is too far away for today's human beings.

Even with full fuel, an extra set of spare parts, and a supply ship, it is only enough for four warships and one supply ship to reach their destination.

Jiang Yu asked Ai Qi: "Is the calculation result accurate?"

Ai Qi replied: "This is the result when everything went well on the voyage. So far we have no experience in interstellar navigation, and we don't know what difficulties we will encounter on the way. So..."

Jiang Yu put down the portable computer in his hand, and sighed: "So the real situation may be worse than this result?"

As long as a single starship fails to reach its destination, a dark battle may be triggered.

Archie nodded in reply.

Jiang Yu pondered for a while before saying to the communication staff officer, "Contact Zhang Beihai!"

The communication staff officer said: "There is already a communication delay between us and Zhang Beihai's fleet. We can only communicate through video communication, and cannot communicate in real time."

Jiang Yu scratched his head: "Let's make a video."

"The recording equipment is turned on, please speak!"

Jiang Yu said to the camera: "What we will talk about next, only you and I will know."

He paused for a few seconds before saying again: "Do you know that your fuel and spare parts can't make all the starships reach their destination?"

It took more than an hour to receive Zhang Beihai's reply: "I know, I'm trying to find a way."

Jiang Yu said again: "There are three ways, the first way is to let all the crew members gather in the selected three or four spaceships, and let a large number of people hibernate.

"There shouldn't be enough hibernation cabins in the spacecraft, so you can try to remove the hibernation cabins of those abandoned spacecraft..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Yu suddenly stopped and didn't know what to say, because this method would put huge pressure on the energy system of the spacecraft.

This kind of energy pressure may not be a big problem in a short period of time, but for hundreds or even thousands of years of voyage, this problem is a huge uncontrollable factor, which is likely to kill everyone.

After a pause of more than ten seconds, Jiang Yu did not continue to talk about this plan, but continued to say: "The second way is, it is..."

The second way is for Jiang Yu to send a large amount of supplies to Zhang Beihai, or for Zhang Beihai's fleet to come back and pick it up himself.

But this method is also impossible. First of all, Zhang Beihai Fleet is already far away from Jiang Yu's location. Jiang Yu now has no other star warship in his hand, and the material support that is starting now cannot catch up with Zhang Beihai Fleet. .

It would be even more impossible for Zhang Beihai's fleet to turn around.

In the deduction of the combat staff, the No. [-] water droplet should be chasing the No. [-] interstellar battleship formation closest to it. It is far away from the starship Earth, so it can't pose much threat.

But the heading of the No. [-] water drop is roughly the same as the escape direction of Zhang Beihai's fleet. If Zhang Beihai turns around, the No. [-] water drop will probably give priority to destroying this star fleet.

So Jiang Yu vetoed the second method before he said it.

He looked at the camera, and did not continue to talk about the third solution, which was the result he least wanted to see: the dark battle.

In the end, Jiang Yu hammered the table in front of him with his fist and sighed: "The preparation work is still not enough."

He sighed: "It would take several years to prepare for such a long voyage, and it would not be an exaggeration to even design a spaceship specially!
"It's a pity, you can only leave in a hurry!"

Jiang Yu was stunned for another ten seconds before saying: "Send it."

The communications staff asked: "Do you want to cut off your pause?"

"No, he will understand what I mean!" Then Jiang Yu said to Ai Qi: "Let the simulation team think of a way to see if all seven spaceships can reach their destinations."

Ai Qi nodded: "I'm going to the simulation team."

He took a step back, hesitant to speak, and finally summoned up the courage to say: "But, but don't hold out too much hope.

"Because the way we star travel is, well, primitive!

"Of course the very original conclusion is my guess, but in the process of our interstellar travel, there is really no room for maneuvering, how much fuel can produce how much thrust, there is no trickery in this regard.

"There is some leeway in the maintenance of the battleship, but we can't take chances. Once there is a problem with the maintenance of the battleship, it will cause irreparable losses."

Jiang Yu held his forehead: "I know, yes, I just don't give up!"

Ai Qi didn't say anything, and left quickly.

It was not until more than two hours later that Jiang Yu received Zhang Beihai's reply. He looked a little tired again: "It seems that my mission is not over yet."

Jiang Yu remained silent for a long time, it seemed that the dark battle would still break out.

For this reason, Jiang Yu thought about it for several days without thinking about food, and then sent a communication video to the captains of the Zhang Beihai Fleet.

Jiang Yu looked at the camera and smiled mysteriously: "I know what you are thinking now, but I want to give you a piece of advice: no matter what, Zhang Beihai can't die!

"You must have heard about the gifts I gave to Senior Colonel Zhang Beihai, and they will be of great use in the future.

"Now I want to clarify that the 'boxes' of those presents are a bit special.

"You ask the crew of the 'Natural Selection', and the door of the 'Packing Box' will only be opened if Zhang Beihai's face and retina are recognized.

"If Zhang Beihai didn't want to use it, no one would be able to get those devices.

"Don't even think about violent dismantling. There is a self-destruct system on the 'packaging box'. Once violence is detected, those machines will be destroyed immediately."

Jiang Yu soon received replies from the captains. Some captains said they did not understand what Jiang Yu meant, some were filled with righteous indignation, and some sneered.

But from their scarlet eyes and exhausted expressions, Jiang Yu knew that they were all suffering in the dark, and who might be the first to be overwhelmed.

Then, Jiang Yu sent another communication video to Zhang Beihai: "Tell you a little trick, you can let the crew wear spacesuits and drain the air inside the battleship."

Since the dark battle cannot be avoided, let's try to keep Zhang Beihai as safe as possible.

　There will be more updates tonight!

　　Well, the author has hesitated for a long time about whether to have a dark battle, after all, this battle is too tragic.

　　Until the author Jun Kandao wrote this basic passage: "'Blue Space' and 'Bronze Age' came from a world of light, but now they have become two ships of darkness.

　　The universe was once bright. Not long after the Big Bang, all matter existed in the form of light. Later, the universe turned into burnt ashes, and heavy elements were precipitated in the darkness to form planets and life.

　　Therefore, darkness is the mother of life and civilization. "

　　Obviously, although the dark battle was tragic, it also forged the core of Starship Earth's civilization.

　　Without the dark battle, they would still not realize how dark the forest of the universe is, and the new world they built is just another comfort zone.

　　Only then did the author make up his mind: there must be a dark battle!

　　It's just that the appearance of Jiang Yu has brought about a huge change in the Dark Battle!

　　Because of Gagen, we should be able to finish the Dark Campaign today.
