Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 957 No retreat
This statement makes one appear to be someone who would rather die than surrender, and yet at the same time suggests that human civilization should surrender. The meaning is self-evident.

Of course Yue Yuan knew what it meant. It was simply a way to arouse mankind's self-esteem and stand firmly with the Daya civilization.

Surrender is impossible, and the Daya civilization is actually very clear about this. The Daya civilization is actually afraid that humans will agree to some conditions of the Star Sea Alliance and abandon them. In other words, they must drag human civilization into the water.

Although the two civilizations were in the same boat, this temporary union had no guarantees, so it was natural for them to worry. After all, in the eyes of the Daya civilization, they had no way out, while humans might still have a way out.

Some people use roundabout ways to say what humans mean.

The humans simply expressed their meaning: "Dayan civilization, you are still saying such things at this time. We believe that the most urgent task is to find a way to deal with this crisis. If you want to surrender, just go ahead and we, the human civilization, will not stop you. Even if you continue to run now and accelerate to sub-light speed at normal speed and float to the Orion Arm, we will not care!"

The next moment, the communication screen lit up with the reply from the Daya civilization: "We are happy about your heroic determination, but no matter how brave and fearless the warriors of our two civilizations are, they cannot change the outcome of destruction."

"The gap in numbers is too great. Even though our combat power is stronger than that of the Star Ocean Alliance, the final result will inevitably be that two fists cannot defeat four hands. Once our living spaceship and planet are destroyed, both of our civilizations will be finished."

"Even if we want them to evacuate first, it's too late. The nearest star in the Orion spiral arm is 1677 light years away, and we only have 52 days to resupply. Even if you have the ability to resupply quickly, you will never be able to complete the resupply. We will eventually die here."

"Speaking of which, this is a relatively quiet place. According to the customs of our Daya civilization, being buried under such a quiet starry sky is also a kind of final resting place. We don't feel any regrets, but we are unwilling to accept the future."

After being translated, the messages sent by the Daya civilization continued to be displayed on the screen of the Lyra: "We have lived in the Perseus Community for so many years, and luckily survived the Level 6 Civilization War. Finally, we found an opportunity to break away from them and return to the development path of our own civilization. But we never expected that we would stop here. There are still so many unknowns in the universe waiting for us to explore. We are unwilling to give up!"

"But what can we do if we are unwilling to accept it? There are so many civilizations in the universe that have perished for various reasons and have also expressed various kinds of unwillingness in the end. But what can we do? It's useless. Alas, although we know that resistance is ultimately futile, even if we perish, we will die gloriously."

"We have informed our people of the situation. They are ready to live and die with civilization. What about you? Human civilization, are you ready?"

Everyone on the Lyra felt extremely heavy-hearted as they looked at the message sent by the Daya civilization.

There is really no way to retreat now. The Daya civilization was right. There are only 52 days left. Even if humans have the ability to quickly replenish, they cannot make the residential spacecraft cluster, which has little fuel left, continue to travel for more than a thousand light years in such a short time.

If there is a road behind, such as a star more than ten light years away, then humans can extend the time for replenishment through the rear-end fleet, and eventually run farther and farther and shake off the pursuers.

But once you set foot on this road, there are no more roads in all directions.

Everyone knew that the Daya civilization had not done it on purpose. It was very likely that this route across the spiral arm was the escape route they had already detected, but they did not expect that the Xinghai Alliance would come in full force. If the Xinghai Alliance did not have such a large numerical advantage, this route would definitely be feasible, and they would not be able to divide their forces to chase them.

"We human civilization would rather die standing than live on our knees, so we have no choice but to fight! The glory of human civilization will live forever!" Yue Yuan instructed the communicator to give a simple reply to Daya civilization, expressing the determination of human civilization.

There is no way to retreat, so we can only fight back.

"Dayan Civilization, stop being sentimental. Our top priority now is to replenish as much as possible. Even though 52 days is a short time, it is enough for us to do a lot of things!"

The Daya civilization replied in seconds: "We know that giving up is not the style of our Daya civilization. When we detected the Star Sea Combined Fleet, we had already deployed all negative energy collection devices."

"Our plan is to prioritize resupplying the Energy Fleet. When the Great Star Ocean Combined Fleet arrives, our fleet will take the initiative to attack and keep them within the range of the tachyon lightsaber as much as possible, delaying them as much as possible, so that our residential ships have time to refuel."

The communicator on the Tianqin also replied as instructed: "This is the only way for now, let's work together!"

While the communicator was replying to the information from the Daya civilization, Yue Yuan waved his hand to call up the communications of various departments from the holographic screen, and then directly gave orders to each subordinate, informing them of the current situation and the plan to be implemented, so that the general public would know what was going on.

However, what he didn't expect was that as soon as the order was announced on the human intranet, a group of people immediately jumped out to oppose it.

The general meaning is that the new government headed by Yue Yuan has brought humanity into danger, and the plan now being implemented to refuel the warships first is obviously a sign that the new government's top brass want to abandon them, the civilians, and run away. Why should they refuel the warships first instead of the residential spacecraft? How many residential spaceships are there, and how many warships are there?

They think that the habitable spacecraft should be refueled and then head to the Orion Arm in advance. This is the best way to preserve human civilization, because the more than 90 billion people living on the habitable spacecraft are the future of human civilization, not the Tianlya.

There are many people who hold this view. After the notice was released, they immediately launched an attack on the new government's decision on the intranet.

Another group of people took advantage of the situation and shouted that such a major event concerning the survival of human civilization needs to form a parliament and be decided by everyone in a meeting, rather than by one person. It is absolutely disastrous to put the lives of hundreds of billions of people in the entire civilization in the hands of one person. They want reform and they want to establish a new democratic human civilization.

Currently these two types of people have started to make trouble. On the residential spaceship where they live, they are calling on everyone to stand up and support and put pressure on the new government. Many people have joined them in taking to the streets and flying into the sky of the residential spaceship, holding up banners, which has a flavor of the parades and demonstrations in the old times. I don't know if they learned this from reading human history books.

The Ministry of Human Protection has sent people to deal with this matter, but the effect is not very good.
