Luo Ji nodded. It was a very shocking scene. Countless huge battleships were flying back and forth in planetary orbits. For the first time, the majestic and majestic power of human beings was truly displayed before Luo Ji's eyes.

"But this is still not as good as one ten-thousandth of the fleet that Li Luo built back then. On that day, I saw stars shining in the world!"

Shi Siming seems to have returned to that day, on that day, the stars formed a neat square array!But this square of stars is only in planetary synchronous orbit, and the Milky Way's star sea becomes a dark background behind, and this square has a clear orbit relative to the background.In the square array, the stars on the side near the morning light have the highest brightness, and the silver light emitted can cast a shadow on the ground, and the brightness gradually decreases towards the back.

Countless artificial objects have filled the entire surface of the earth, and even the solar system. Trisolarans want to use sophons to stop them, but those spaceships with a speed of light of 15.00% have reached the same level as Trisolarans. They can only watch helplessly. These countless fleets fly away from the solar system.

That is no longer a fleet, it is a moving planet. Quantum ghosts cover the traces of the fleet, making it impossible for sophons to track. The powerful cosmic psionic energy forms a huge cosmic tide. A new race solemnly swears to the universe. They Here they are, finally they are no longer babies, but grow into teenagers.

"You should know the current form on Earth!" Shi Qiang said,

"You mean Earth International and Space Fleet?" Luo Ji was a little confused.

"Yes, now they are welcoming the arrival of the water droplets." Ding Yi's eyes had already condensed into a pool of worry. "They are dying!"

"No, I don't think so. Trisolarans have the same speed as us, and they just released some small detectors now." Shi Siming said, obviously, he has fallen in love with this era.

"Really? Weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, but arrogance is!" Ding Yi suddenly smiled.

"Dr. Luo Ji, do you still remember the two arguments of your theory?" Ding Yi asked suddenly.

"Chain of suspicion and technological explosion?" Luo Ji didn't make much publicity about his theory, so it was a little strange that Ding Yi knew about it, but the Fermi Paradox was not a secret, so Ding Yi might have guessed it.

"That's right, the technology exploded, and Trisolaran's technology has already exploded!" Ding Yi just finished speaking, when Luo Ji suddenly fell to the ground, his face was pale, without the slightest trace of blood.He realized where the dissonance of this era was.

Yes, why can the Trisolarans fail to break through the barriers of technology while human beings can develop in the application of technology?They don't have a sophon blockade.Moreover, he had heard Li Luo's speech on the Trisolaran society, and he knew that although the Trisolarans' technological development was slow, they could easily be at the forefront of development when the general direction was good.

The speed and acceleration of civilization progress are not necessarily consistent, and weak civilizations are likely to surpass powerful civilizations in a short period of time.

Here are two words corresponding to the two situations:

The first is the speed of development, which depends on the wisdom and development stage of the civilized race itself.For example, after the second industrial revolution, earth civilization has entered the age of steam and the age of electricity, and its development speed changes according to its cognitive level;

The second is acceleration. A civilization between two stages of development will develop at a speed of There was an unexpected big reversal in a short period of time.

Obviously, the technological explosion mentioned in the "Three-Body Problem" refers to a weak civilization suddenly discovering the existence of another aggressive civilization that is far beyond itself, and the instinct of survival forces it to explode all its resources in a short period of time. Potential, the scientific and technological achievements that could have been realized in hundreds or even thousands of years have been condensed and completed in a few decades, so it looks like an incredible technological explosion and a great leap forward in civilization.

"But why?" Luo Ji's voice became hoarse, but when thoughts flashed through Luo Ji's mind like lightning, he shouted almost in despair.

"It's an expeditionary force!"

Chapter 43 The Defeatist

In space, thousands of spaceships are arranged in pairs, like stars in the daytime, adding a touch of life to the dark outer space.

"You did it? Zhang Beihai?" The commander of the Asia Fleet fixed his eyes on Zhang Beihai, supporting the future plan.

Without a major breakthrough in the field of science and technology, the already existing defeatist ideological trend will become more and more rampant. The ideological and mental state of the Space Force will be under unpredictable pressure and influence. Comrades engaged in political and ideological work in the future space force will face enormous difficulties and challenges. pressure.The political and industrial strength of the Space Force will be seriously insufficient, so a future plan for reinforcements is proposed.Use hibernation technology to send outstanding active political officers to the future to support the political work of the future space army.

The Future Support Project was very successful. After Zhang Beihai's group of people fell into hibernation, more people joined the Future Support Project, but the first group of people who hibernated were the last to wake up.

"The reason for your defection?" The commander of the fleet almost roared angrily. At this most glorious moment for mankind, there was a traitor here, what would the other fleet think.

"Fleeing is a fact, but I did not betray." Zhang Beihai said calmly.

"The reason? I want to know the reason."

"In this war, human beings will lose. I just want to preserve an interstellar spacecraft for the earth, and preserve a seed and a hope for human civilization in the universe."

"So you're an escapist."

"I'm just a soldier doing his duty."

"Your unusually firm belief in defeatism is incomprehensible. You see, we have [-] spaceships, and there is only one spaceship on the opposite side. That is not a signal of war, but a requirement for negotiation."

"No, Commander. That is not a messenger of peace. If you want peace, Sophon can fully explain that the war has never gone away. The reason why the belief in fleeing is so firm is because it does not come from my own wisdom. As early as three From the beginning of the global crisis, my father and I began to think seriously about the most basic issues of this war. Gradually, my father gathered around my father a group of deep-thinking scholars, including scientists, politicians and military strategists. They called themselves For the school of future history."

"Are you Li Luo's? It's Li Luo's secret organization." The fleet commander asked.

"No," Zhang Beihai resolutely vetoed. "Although Dr. Li Luo has also participated in the discussion, the discussion has always been conducted openly, and the research questions are also very basic. The military and the government even came forward to hold several academic seminars of the future history school. It is from In their studies, I have established the idea that human beings are doomed."

"But now, the theory of the future history school has been proven wrong!"

"Chief, you underestimated them. Not only did they predict the Great Depression, but they also predicted the Second Enlightenment and the Second Renaissance. They predicted today's powerful era, which is almost indistinguishable from reality. Finally, they also predicted The total defeat and extinction of humanity in the Doomsday War."

"However, the spaceship you are in now can travel at 15.00% of the speed of light." The commander of the fleet tried to reverse this scandal.

But Zhang Beihai still persisted.

"The attack speed of Genghis Khan's cavalry is comparable to that of the armored troops of the 500th century; the bed crossbow of the Northern Song Dynasty has a range of [-] meters, which is similar to that of the sniper rifles of the [-]th century; but these are still just ancient cavalry and crossbows. It is impossible to compete with modern power. Basic theory determines everything, and the school of future history clearly sees this. But you, are blindfolded by low-level technology that returns to the light. You are lying in the hotbed of modern civilization and content with pleasure, and you are not satisfied with the coming The ultimate decisive battle that will determine the fate of mankind is completely unprepared mentally."

"You come from a great army. They have defeated enemies with far more advanced equipment than themselves, and even won a large-scale land battle that is rare in the world with only captured weapons. Your behavior has humiliated this army. glory."

"Dear Commander, I am more qualified than you to talk about that army, because three generations of my family have served in it. My grandpa used a grenade to attack a US Pershing tank in the Korean War. The grenade hit the tank and slid down. The explosion left the target unscathed. Grandpa was hit by the machine gun on the tank, and his legs were broken by the tracks, and he spent the rest of his life on the sickbed. But compared to the two comrades who were crushed into meat paste at the same time, He was lucky.

It is the history of this army that makes us deeply aware of the technological gap between us and the enemy in war.The glory you know is seen in the historical records. Our wounds are formed by the blood of our fathers and ancestors. We know more about war than you do. "

"When did the defection plan come about?"

"I reiterate: I have not betrayed, but fleeing is a fact. This plan came into being when I saw my father for the last time. He told me what to do with the last slap in the face. It took me two centuries to implement this plan."

"In order to get a spaceship capable of interstellar escape, I killed three people."

"We don't know this, and maybe no one knows, but one thing should be certain: the research direction determined at that time is crucial to the development of aerospace technology later."

"Thank you for telling me this."

"But I also want to tell you that your plan has failed. Natural Selection was only filled with one-fifth of the fusion fuel when it set sail. In this way, you can only accelerate to one percent of the speed of light, and you dare not go beyond that." More fuel is consumed, because the spacecraft's ecological cycle system needs energy to maintain its operation. This period of time ranges from decades to centuries.
