The Science Fiction World of Xueba

There was no sound in the meeting room.

But judging from the expressions on the faces of the participants, they didn't seem to be too surprised.

After all, in the past six months, there have been turbulent sentiments in various regions of the world, and the anger of the people has long been ignited by these rumors. It is only a matter of time before a rebellion occurs.

Seedorf said with a serious face: "The coalition government has a plan in advance for the rebellion, and everyone just needs to implement it according to the plan. Here, I want to emphasize a few points!"

"First, whether it is our army or the rebels, the focus of the two sides' contention is mainly limited to the planetary engine. In order to prevent damage to the planetary engine, neither the enemy nor the enemy is allowed to use heavy weapons. This is the bottom line!"

"Secondly, everyone should be clear about the reason for this war. Whether the sun will have a helium flash or not, the rebels have nothing to say, but the scientists have to decide! I hope everyone here can firmly believe that the truth stands On our side, justice is on our side!"

"Third, this war is about the life and death of human civilization, but I don't want this war to hurt the vitality of human civilization. Therefore, the battle will be mainly confined to the ground, and the space fleet will remain neutral! Unless one of the parties uses heavy weapons, Otherwise, the space fleet will not join any side! The above points will serve as the rules of engagement for this civil war, and I hope everyone can strictly abide by them!"

...

Next, Seedorf made relevant arrangements for the various tasks of the wartime coalition government before concluding the meeting.

Pang Xuelin attended the whole process. As the mathematics chairman of the Science Committee, he didn't need to do much.

After the meeting was over, Pang Xuelin was about to return to his office, but he was stopped by Seedorf's secretary as soon as he reached the door of the conference room.

"Chairman Pang, Mr. Seedorf is here to invite you."

Pang Xuelin was slightly taken aback, nodded, and followed the secretary to Seedorf's office.

After entering the office, Seedorf was fiddling with tea sets.

Although the war had already broken out, Seedorf didn't seem to be very anxious. Instead, he felt much more relaxed than usual.

Seeing Pang Xuelin come in, Seedorf smiled and said, "Xiao Pang, you are here, sit down first, and I will make you a pot of tea!"

Soon the office was overflowing with fragrant tea. In this era, tea is a luxury among luxury items, and only a very small number of people are qualified to enjoy it.

With Pang Xuelin's status, there are only a few taels of tea that can be distributed every year.

Pang Xuelin picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said, "Mr. Seedorf, what can you do for me?"

Seedorf pondered: "Xiao Pang, how long do you think we can last this war?"

Pang Xuelin couldn't help being stunned, and said for a moment of silence: "How long we persist depends on our determination. If the coalition government threatens the rebels to negotiate by destroying the planetary engine, it will take a few years, or even wait until the solar helium flash erupts." It’s not a problem. But if you don’t do this, once the morale of the army is shaken, the coalition government will be defeated in as short as three months or as long as half a year!”

Seedorf laughed and said: "It is indeed a good way to blackmail the rebels by destroying the planetary engine, but we can't do this, at least this coalition government can't bear such a stain... But it can persist for three to three days." Six months is enough, and the battle against the rebels still has to be fought, how can the infant human civilization that left the solar system for the first time get a new life without going through the baptism of blood and fire!"

Pang Xuelin opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

In the past few years, the coalition government has long unified its thinking from within. Even from a purely rational point of view, Pang Xuelin himself agrees with the coalition government's ideas.

It's just that people are still emotional animals after all, and he can't help but watch these old people who have made great contributions to human civilization die.

Seedorf turned his gaze to Pang Xuelin and said, "Xiao Pang, I have a task that I am going to give you to complete.

"

"What mission?"

Pang Xuelin was puzzled.

Seedorf said: "The latest news ten minutes ago, rebellion has broken out in all 228 underground cities in North America, and it is spreading at an extremely fast speed. There are also signs of instability in the European area, Paris, and London. Rebellion is expected. It will erupt within two to three days. I just received a message from the former director of the North American Management Committee—to be precise, it should be one of the leaders of the rebel army. I rejected the handover of control of the planetary engine by the military. However, I made a suggestion to him, hoping to start negotiations on a truce between the government army and the rebels, and he agreed. I thought about it, the coalition government, You are the most suitable negotiator."

Pang Xuelin frowned and said, "Why me?"

Seedorf said: "The reason is very simple. On the one hand, you have a high prestige and a good reputation. The rebels can distrust anyone, but you should be an exception. On the other hand, these people kidnapped public opinion and came to power. Once the helium flash breaks out, it's hard to say what will happen to them, I hope you can make friends with some of them so that you can stand up and clean up the mess in the future!"

Pang Xuelin looked at Seedorf, and the two looked at each other, as if they could see each other's thoughts from each other's eyes.

Pang Xuelin got up and said: "Mr. Seedorf, I think there is another more important reason! You don't want me to be too involved in this civil war, in case I will be liquidated later, so let me stay away from City of Hope !"

Seedorf said with a smile: "Xiao Pang, your political sensitivity is higher than I imagined, and I am even more optimistic about your future! How about it, are you willing to be a negotiator?"

Pang Xuelin shook his head and said: "Mr. Seedorf, I am sorry to disappoint you. I refuse to participate in this negotiation!"

Seedorf was taken aback for a moment, and asked in confusion, "Why?"

Pang Xuelin said: "I have my pursuit, just like you are willing to sacrifice your life for the future of civilization, I can't do it knowing that the other party is wrong, but also make false claims with the other party! And do you think these rebel leaders really Think solar helium flashes won't happen?"

The smile on Seedorf's face gradually dissipated, and after a long silence, he nodded and said, "I understand! You go back first, I'll think about it again!"

...

Coming out of Seedorf's office, staff members hurried past everywhere.

Most of these people have a trace of anxiety and uneasiness on their faces.

In the past, no matter how great the crisis of human civilization was, Pang Xuelin had never seen such an expression on these coalition government staff.

After all, in the past, their enemies were all kinds of natural disasters, such as asteroids, earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, and solar helium flashes!

But this time, the enemy they faced was the human heart!

The Coalition has lost all support!
