Half a month after the monitoring began, the Federation's first fleet, all controlled by Wu Xiaoqing's clone, entered the battlefield for the first time.

They did well, better than most of the Commonwealths, but since they were only experimental units, they withdrew from the field after only minor contact.

30 Wu Xiaoqing died in that battle.

But no one cares.

The Federation doesn't care, it's just a tentative battle; Wu Xiaoqing doesn't care, because it seems to be just a number to him, he doesn't feel that he has died more than 30 times; it seems that their enemies care more, Because of these 30 people, its winning percentage dropped by more than a dozen points.

Half of the solar system can now see the marching state of the armies of both sides rushing from the rear planet to the front. They look like a man-made galaxy in the sky. The two rivers take the huge disc of the solar system as the core, and the federation moves from the inside to the outside. , the intellectual body unfolds along the ecliptic plane from the outside to the inside.

A part of the intelligence fleet even ignored saving energy, and began to try to start from the direction perpendicular to the ecliptic plane-directly attack the Federation's rear base.

The war soon reached a fever pitch.

But for Wu Xiaoqing and the others, they didn't feel anything at all.

For them, this interstellar war is like the stars fighting in the sky. Let alone the specific details of the fight, they don't even know what the flashing and disappearing of these stars mean. The government can only rely on radio information from within the Federation to analyze the current battle situation.

The official news of the Federation began to publicize great victories again and again, the first time, the second time... No. 20 The second earth defense battle was a complete success, and the enemy's attempt was successfully thwarted.

But public opinion seems to be less enthusiastic.

"The government must quickly increase the proportion of Wu Xiaoqing in the army!"

"The Federation cannot afford such casualties!"

"Our civilization is bleeding fast!"

……

Intelligence and body's reckless all-out attack made the federal army fight to the death. The original plan was to gradually retire the original soldiers and gradually replace them with Wu Xiaoqing replicas to fight in two or three years. On the top of the army, on the other hand, simply make a second copy of Wu Xiaoqing's clone—that is, directly copy the clone that can directly participate in the battle after training.

Although this kind of secondary replication can expand the number of troops at the fastest speed in a short period of time, one of the biggest consequences is that it will form a split within the original Wu Xiaoqing organization, and at the same time, it will also make it easy for the intelligence to capture these "same batches" "The execution actions of the clones on the battlefield - their command and tactical actions are almost completely consistent, and it will naturally be easier to target them.

After the second clone troop was targeted in several battles, the Federation had to go back to the old way and start to continue the original training process in the first clone. , if you don't follow the planet as a springboard and fly directly by leaps and bounds, it will be difficult for this kind of attack to last.

At this point in the battle, the Federation has begun to declare war control on all planets.

The surfaces of all the planets, as well as the crust, are no longer inhabited, and most people hide in the depths of the earth according to the evacuation regulations, or directly hide in some small space cities on the satellites.

The intelligent body's attack began to become crazy, and they used nuclear bombs and a small number of antimatter bombs to bomb some important targets they detected, including some military servers that might store replicas.

All replicas began to be backed up multiple times, and almost every planet was left with a copy. These backup servers are usually sealed and not activated. Only after the backup server is destroyed, they will be activated in order.

On Earth, in mid-May, when the weather gradually entered summer, the fighting in the Federation also began to rage.

Now every time Wu Xiaoqing comes back from the search and rescue ship and sees the scene on the earth, he will subconsciously feel fear.

Because everything is too fragile.

Almost every time he comes back, he will learn how many thousands of replicas like himself died in the war. All the battles about them are the same as before, and can be found on the federal network. The federal government even deliberately condones some civil organizations to The information is transported to the area where the search and rescue ship is located by a small civilian spacecraft and shown to them.

Wu Xiaoqing is on the rescue ship these days, and what he sees every day is about his own sacrifice.

Wu Xiaoqing himself had faced death once, and at that time he was so frightened that he was at a loss what to do.But the Wu Xiaoqing in the video is much stronger than the Wu Xiaoqing who dared not jump off the river in the past—most of them.

Inevitably, there will still be a small number of people who will show the same fear and despair that Wu Xiaoqing had that day.

These people have greatly devastated Wu Xiaoqing's mental state, and now the search and rescue team and Shen Changwen have advised Wu Xiaoqing not to look at these things anymore.

But Wu Xiaoqing still comes every day. In his opinion, these are the consequences of his own decisions... He can't save these people, but as the instigator, he feels that he has the responsibility to understand the experiences of these people.

The federation is thousands of years more advanced than the earth. If the earth is bombarded covering the entire surface, it is almost impossible for the entire civilization to survive.But for the Federals, those battles on the surface were just routine bombings.

The more intense battle still took place in space, on planet No. 12, which the Federation called Little Sunstar.

The reason why this planet is called a small sun star is because it is the largest planet in the entire solar system, and its size is almost equal to a small star. Because of its huge mass and high internal temperature, it is the only planet among the fifteen planets. A planet without built-in industrial systems.The Federation once had the idea to evenly split this planet into four to five planets in the same orbit to adapt to the Federation's industrial system.

However, due to internal legal restrictions, this proposal has not been responded to.

Now, as a matter of course, because of the huge mass of this planet, it has become the key point that the intelligent body must compete for.

The Federation has also invested a lot of troops here. In the past two months, the billions of Wu Xiaoqing and the fleet under their control have been deployed here. Of course, they face more enemies—they just came from the Black Star Batch-manufactured, the super-huge fleet with a scale exceeding tens of billions, through the astronomical observation equipment on the search and rescue ship, it can be seen that this fleet is like a giant snake spinning in space, following the most energy-efficient rotation orbit of the two planets, and A graceful arc is approaching each other.

At the place where the giant snake and the destination little sun star came into contact, bright sparks began to erupt from the head of this shining giant snake, just like burning hot molten iron in a steel furnace—the glowing position is where the battle is taking place. The battlefield, and the biggest reason for these rays of light is the martyrdom of the key parts of the ships of the two sides.

In fact, most ships do not die after losing combat effectiveness. Whether it is a spaceship of the Federation or an intelligent body, when the internal engine cannot be maintained, the first priority is to stop the operation instead of barely running— —Because the martyrdom explosion will cause a large amount of space junk, which will greatly hinder the actions of both parties.

But this time, the Federation Fleet couldn't care less.

From the video sent from the federation, it can be seen that the federation has issued a death order-they even changed the engine settings for this reason. After losing combat power by default, the ship will voluntarily die. The purpose is naturally man-made Create minefields formed by space junk, retarding the attacking edge of the intelligence-body army.

At this point in the war, Wu Xiaoqing didn't want to watch it anymore.

The search and rescue team took the initiative to cancel his mission in this mission and asked him to return to the earth and wait... because watching these battlefield live broadcasts every day is a huge torture to Wu Xiaoqing's spirit.

But Wu Xiaoqing would still take the initiative to inquire about these things with Shen Changwen after he came back.

Shen Changwen deliberately concealed a considerable part of the details, but the progress of this war still told him roughly - under the Federation's desperate tactics of sacrificial bombing, the orbital layer of the entire Little Sun Star was almost full of space junk, full of space warships. Fragments... and, possibly, devices containing Wu Xiaoqing's replica memory.

This means that if the intelligent body wants to attack, it has to consume more energy, risking the tactical disadvantage of being beaten more and less, starting from a farther place, accelerating, and slowing down when reaching the destination, Then launch an attack... Such an attack is destined to be weaker, and the combat consumption ratio will be worse.

But again, this mine belt also restricted the access of federal troops.

The situation of the war seems to have eased because of this, and the two sides are still fighting fiercely near Xiaoyangxing, but the scale of the battle has begun to become less and less—because the clean battlefields for fighting have also begun to become less and less.

Probably in order to divert Wu Xiaoqing's attention, the search and rescue team began to assign Wu Xiaoqing some affairs on earth to change his mood, including asking him to supervise the entire filming process of the sequel of "Saving the Ancestors".

Wu Xiaoqing's work started to get busy, but every once in a while, when he came back to the company and met Shen Changwen and Xu Yan, he would still ask a few questions out of habit.

Shen Changwen talked to him less and less... Wu Xiaoqing now understands that the less he talks, the harder life will be for those replicas... Every time he sees Shen Changwen shaking his head, he loses his sense of humor Ask.

June is a very short month for Wu Xiaoqing, the busy shooting process distracted his attention to some extent.Because the filming location was out of town, Wu Xiaoqing basically couldn't meet Shen Changwen, so he stopped paying attention to the news of this mission.

By mid-July, the entire movie was finished, and when he returned to the company, he saw Shen Changwen and Xu Yan were there.

"Don't you need to be on duty?" Wu Xiaoqing asked subconsciously, and then slapped his head, "It's over?"

"It's over!" Shen Changwen shouted excitedly, "Thanks to you!"

"Thanks to me?" Wu Xiaoqing rubbed his head, puzzled, "The war is over?"

"No...the two sides have made peace," Shen Changwen called out, "Do you still remember Xiaoyangxing? Just use that planet as the boundary."

Wu Xiaoqing frowned: "Talk about peace? Will the federal government agree?" Even if Xiaoyangxing is lost, the federal government has an overwhelming advantage in the entire war resources.In the previous deduction, in fact, no one thought that there was any possibility of peace between the two sides-it could only be life and death, and a civilization survived in the end.

"No, the previous federal government is not in charge now!" Shen Changwen patted Wu Xiaoqing on the shoulder and laughed, "A major change has occurred within the Federation."
