Earth Era

The day finally arrived.

Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Is there only 100 million units?"

Compared with the number of robot armies in the trillions, 100 million units is indeed a little less. But then, Xiao Yun seemed to have thought of something and continued to murmur: "This is also normal... The robot army has no hatred for human civilization. Their purpose is just to copy themselves. In their view, the solar system is also It’s just an ordinary galaxy, they don’t value it just because there is intelligent life in the solar system.”

As he spoke, Xiao Yun's expression began to darken: "However, even including the lethality of the smallpox virus, 100 million robots... are still too many for us. And it will take at least three or four months for me to Finish the rest of the work - originally this work should have been completed by now, but now I am the only one left in the programming team."

"Three or four months?" General Emerk patted Xiao Yun's shoulder, "It doesn't matter, let me solve these things."

"Can our current strength cope with a robot army of up to 100 million?" Xiao Yun asked.

"You don't have to worry about these things, just leave them to me." General Emerk said calmly, "No matter which method you use, I will make sure that your work is not affected."

General Emerk turned around and left Xiao Yun's office. When the monkeys saw General Emerk leaving, they walked in with their heads protruding and kept jumping around Xiao Yun. Some of the little monkeys were even naughty. jumped onto Xiao Yun's desk.

——Maybe it’s because General Emerk’s murderous aura is too strong. These monkeys have always been very afraid of General Emerk and never come within ten meters of General Emerk.

Xiao Yun gently stroked the soft fur of the little monkey, and his mood gradually calmed down.

"This day will always come. Our struggle and sacrifice are all for this day, isn't it?" Xiao Yun muttered to himself, then gently brushed the little monkeys away and said softly: "Go and play, I'm going to get to work."

There is also a base not far from the scientific research base, but the role of this base is completely different from that of the scientific research base. It is a very large comprehensive base integrating military and civilian uses.

In fact, construction of this base had already begun a few years ago. Its ultimate purpose is to accommodate all humans remaining on the earth at this moment, and to have complete military defense and attack capabilities. Now, after the traces of the robot group were discovered, large-scale relocation work has begun.

No matter where they live on the earth, no matter what work is being done now, under the order of General Emerk, everyone began to move to this comprehensive base. Even the scientific research base where Xiao Yun has been living is no exception. There will be specialized personnel to relocate all the instruments required for scientific research to the comprehensive base.

All human creations left outside the comprehensive base have been destroyed one by one. All earthly creatures, whether they are huge whales or tiny insects, and even some bacteria and viruses that play an important role in the natural environment are all in the comprehensive base. A backup was left among them. At this moment, human civilization has completely returned nature to the earth.

At the core of the comprehensive base, a meeting chaired by General Emerk was being held. All the top officials of the Civilized Guard gathered here.

"This is an image of the robot army observed by the Sky Survey Observation Base, as well as a schematic diagram of the position of the robot army, the solar system and the earth." General Emerk pointed to a virtual image and said, "According to the current speed of the robot army, they It will arrive on Earth within two months at most. And according to Xiao Yun, it will take at least three more months to complete the work - for the sake of safety, we set this time as four months. That is to say , we need to fight against the robot army for two months, and ensure that the base is not lost within these two months - this is our ultimate goal in this operation. So now, I want to listen to everyone's opinions."

An officer said: "I want to know if escape is feasible - of course, it is just Xiao Yun's escape. Can we allocate a spacecraft to let Xiao Yun leave the earth, leave the solar system, in space, away from robots? Continue your work at the legion’s place?”

This officer did not propose that all remaining humans take a spaceship and start escaping, because he knew that no one would leave the earth. At the beginning, this group of people refused to leave with the escape fleet precisely because they did not want to leave the earth and wanted to live and die with the earth. How could people leave now?

But Xiao Yun is different. Because Xiao Yun has a special mission, in front of this mission, personal preferences are no longer important. Therefore, if escaping in a spaceship would help carry out the mission, Xiao Yun would definitely not refuse.

But General Emerk flatly rejected this proposal: "This is not feasible. Because Xiao Yun's work requires the computing power of a supercomputer, and also requires a variety of experimental instruments and simulation equipment to verify his calculations. And Our existing spacecraft cannot meet this requirement in terms of quality and energy supply. Therefore, Xiao Yun can only stay on Earth."

"Then we can only start a head-on war with the robot army." Another officer said, "One thing I want to make clear is that with the current strength of our Civilized Guards, we cannot complete the attack on the entire planet. Defending—it’s good enough to be able to protect our base. In other words, the robot army’s landing on the earth is unstoppable, and we must be prepared for the entire earth’s ecology to be destroyed.”

General Emerk nodded: "The staff has already mentioned this to me. That's why our base is built according to fully enclosed standards. We have reserved enough water, oxygen and various resources in advance, even if Even if the earth's ecological environment is completely destroyed, it will not affect the interior of the base."

An officer said: "Then our operational premise has been determined - give up the earth, give up the attempt to protect the earth's ecology, and only do our best to protect our base and ensure that Xiao Yun's research can continue without interruption. We want to Based on this premise, we formulate our battle plan."

Another officer said: "Then our battlefield must be divided into two parts. One is the battle on the space battlefield. I think the purpose of this battle should be to weaken the enemy's combat power. The second is the battle on the ground battlefield. This part of the battle should be Focusing on positional warfare, we should rely on a complete defense system to keep the enemy out of the base and ensure that the base serves its purpose."

"I have the same view." General Emerk nodded, "But there is one thing I need to add. I think that in the battle on the space station, we should take advantage of our maneuverability and take the initiative to attack the robots from now on. The robot corps harassed them and kept weakening their combat power. The battle simulation submitted to me by the staff showed that during the two-month voyage of the robot corps to the earth, if we kept sending troops to harass them, then we would at least It can weaken the enemy's combat effectiveness by eight percent."

Another officer said: "There is another point that we cannot ignore, and that is the super reproductive ability of the robot army. With our current military strength, we are still unable to defend the earth, let alone defend the planets in the solar system. The rest of the planets. In this way, after entering the solar system, the robot army will inevitably occupy the other planets - such as Mars, Mercury, or the satellites of Jupiter and Saturn, etc., and multiply rapidly on these planets. Here we are At that time, these planets, as well as the earth itself, will become the rear base of the robot army, and a steady stream of robots will be born and participate in the encirclement and suppression of us. We will fall into the vast ocean of the robot army."

General Emerk said: "It is true. Once the robot army enters the solar system, it cannot be wiped out. However, this is something we cannot solve and cannot avoid. I think we still need to execute it according to the original plan and still divide the battlefield. It consists of two parts: space and ground, and special forces are dispatched in advance to execute the harassment operation plan. Because the number of robots is growing exponentially, if one robot is eliminated outside the solar system, we may have fewer enemies in future wars within the solar system. Facing 10,000, or even 100,000, or millions of robots.”

Although there will still be a lot of robots left,...it's always good to have fewer robots.

Discussions about the battle plan continued for several hours. The top brass of the Guards made detailed battle plans, taking into account every detail of the entire war. The meeting lasted until sunset.

"Now I will summarize the meeting." At the end of the meeting, General Emerk stood up. "Our battle plan is as follows. First, we will release the smallpox virus against the robot army. According to estimates, the smallpox virus will destroy There will be at least 70 million robots, and the combat power of the remaining 30 million robots will also be severely weakened. Then, special forces will be dispatched to take the initiative in fast maneuvering spaceships to conduct harassment operations against the remaining robot legions. The number of robot legions must be reduced by another 100%. Eight, in this way, when the robot army enters the solar system, their number will only be about 22 million.

From this time on, the robot army will enter a rapid proliferation stage, and our space battlefield and ground battlefield will also start at the same time..."
