But it wasn't over yet, the voice went on—

"How do you believe what the Americans say? What's your brain? Can you be more honest, you just want to live your life, and take the lead in order to show your loyalty to the new master. Be honest and I can't think of you more, trash!"

"?"

The crew members of the fleet were shocked, ah, "What do you mean?!"

However, the radio station suddenly went silent, and not only that, another signal suddenly squeezed in, with great anxiety and anger——

"Cease fire, you bastards, what the hell are you doing!"

When the shells of the orbital bombardment fell halfway, the observation center of the League of Nations Fleet calculated the landing point - it was 10 kilometers away from the orbit to the surface of the earth. It was thrown hundreds of kilometers away from the landing point of the shell by a fraction.The Mi Army Fleet Command, which was anxious to get angry, kept trying to contact this fleet, but it was like a warning to the people of Yin, but nothing came to nothing.

When the news of the attack on the Navy fleet reached the Rectangular Building, the navy boss almost smashed the office of the Space Force. Facing the furious Navy, the sweaty Space Force made a phone call to the Houston Space Center. Then communicated to the space port.

"There are... traitors in our hands, I promise to give you an explanation."

Facing the answer from the space army, the navy boss sneered, he was already out of anger: "Account? You screwed up the agreed plan before it was implemented! It was all ruined! Our military's actions have been blocked by the White House and Rentoushan knows, let's go to the accountability meeting together!"

The boss will be held accountable, and his subordinates will not even think about having a good life!When the rebels came to their senses, a number of Mi Army armored destroyers had appeared behind their ships, and they were menacing, and they didn't intend to communicate with them at all.

"A lost dog dares to bite its master!"

The armored destroyer group opened the launcher on the back of the machine, and the flames lit up one after another. With inertia and rocket acceleration, the missile quickly caught up with the rebel spaceship——

"Captain, how could this happen!"

Faced with the shouts of the crew, the completely numb captain suddenly burst out laughing, the laughter was extremely stern.

"This is our end!"

Missiles exploding outside the atmosphere are no different than those inside the planet. The power generated by the built-in oxidizer pushes hundreds of metal rods inside the warhead forward, piercing into the outer shell of the space shuttle and tearing apart a terrifying hole.Like countless sharp knives dismantling the plane, the leaked air blows out and pulls the suffocating and struggling crew members out of the room.It didn't explode because the fuel didn't burn without the oxygen leaking, they just froze, but the shuttle also lost power and became a big pile of space junk.

Before long, the gravity of the earth will pull them down, the atmosphere will burn off the last residue, traitors or not, the earth will accept its children with mercy, ashes to ashes, no worries.

"ended."

Tian Ximing seemed to feel something, staring at the sky.

"It's a good way to make a strong enemy retreat without a single soldier! This round is lost."

However, the chess game is not over yet, and it is not yet known who will win the game.Who does this destiny belong to? In the end, there will be a contest. Don't be discouraged.

"Ming Jun, the army is ready, just waiting for your order."

Beside him, the chief of the mountain city called softly to call him back from his thoughts. His lover was already in military uniform, and he held the command knife in front of his eyes with both hands.

Tian Ximing nodded, tied the saber around his waist, straightened his chest, and said loudly to the generals in front of him.

"Kamchatka captured Evansk with its own power, and the world was shocked. However, our Yamato nation is inferior to the Russians. Don't you feel pain for the loss of land in the past few years? Don't you want to regain the lost land every day? ?"

"I am ashamed that I was entrusted by the general to tie up the military of a country, so I am trembling like walking on thin ice, lest I lose my duty. Now the country is initially established, and the vitality is not yet full, but the battle is imminent. Sado beta is about to go south. The holy land of the imperial kingdom and hundreds of millions The safety of the living beings depends on us!"

The momentum of the crowd was high: "I am willing to die for General Tianxi!"

"It's not for me!" Tian Ximing roared, "It's for the country, for the general! We must stop here, but it's not enough. The empire's military equipment has been upgraded. We should destroy Sado's lair, so that the country can be peaceful. "

Attacking Sado's lair... so bold, isn't such a bold leader worth following?

The faces of the generals were flushed. They were all rookies promoted by Tian Ximing. After the general announced the reform, many middle-level officers who had proved themselves on the battlefield were promoted—— Although they are still inexperienced, the morale of the Imperial Army is higher than ever!

Tian Ximing looked around:

"So, prove your loyalty and bravery!"

PS: Guys, don't wear headphones.I was wearing earphones today and suddenly there was a buzzing in my ears, which lasted for several seconds before disappearing. I don’t know if you have encountered it. I feel very bad. This is a dangerous signal.

Chapter 220 Six: The Road to Heaven

The universe, the starry sky... These words used to be so far away from me, but now they are right under my feet and close in front of my eyes.

People used to say that the earth is the mother of human beings, and we have always been in the arms of mothers, but for Ratolova today, this sentence has a better understanding-whether it is human beings or the earth, we have always been in the mother's arms. In the bosom of the universe, its vastness and magnificence surpasses everything I understand.Stars as magnificent as the sun abound in the sky, and in other words,

We are all just a part of the universe, what is special about us?As a person on earth, I came to Sira and broke my own cognition - human beings are not only not alone, but also not unique. Scylla people are very good, and they always make themselves feel ashamed.And if the "sinking universe" is confirmed, then there will be other human beings in the future... Not only that, there will be more aliens!

What will they be like?Thinking of this, Ratolova felt a little depressed. People's Federation said that beta is just an automated mining machine of an alien civilization, but just a mining machine almost makes people on earth despair. What should I do if I encounter its mother civilization?What a terrible thing that would be, even if the other party is not hostile... the elephant that trampled the ants to death is not hostile, but what about the ants?

"The leader of the People's Federation is right. Even if they are born differently, human beings must unite as one to deal with the risk of sinking the universe. The survival of the race is above all else."

People who come to the starry sky, no matter what their level is, their vision will always surpass those souls bound by gravity on the surface.Every time she looks at Sira from the porthole of the moon city, she always imagines the earth. From space, she can't see national borders, nor can she see political opinions and ideologies, but she knows that those people on the surface are still fighting to the death.

It's ridiculous.

The signal light came on, and the order to gather was conveyed to her ears. Ratolova turned over from the dormitory bed. She put on the one-piece suit in twos and twos, and activated the button to exhaust the air. The nano-polymer fabric tightly wrapped her body, which highlighted her figure very much. .Not to mention that it has been several months since she came here to train, even she used to run around like this before, but she still put on the fleet uniform in accordance with the military regulations of the People's Federation Fleet.

It seems that People's Federation likes long military coats very much, which are still close to the solemnity of traditional aesthetics, and the styles of men and women are very different.She is not a sociologist, but unlike the earth that emphasizes the erasure of "gender consciousness", the leader seems to hate this kind of anti-human behavior. Maybe he has deeper considerations?

"Student Ratolova, first-class pilot, today is your first day of official mission, I wish you success, the vast starry sky will let you travel from now on."

The moment he left the dormitory, a soft female voice sounded, and an intellectual woman was projected from beside him. This is the management AI "Silver Belt" of the Fleet Academy, responsible for the life and psychological care of the students.This dignified and beautiful "woman" in white looked at her tenderly, as if looking at her own child.

And Ratolova thanked her in return: "I'm about to be assigned to my own ship. I'm afraid it will be difficult to see you again in the future. Thank you for your care these days."

Yinbai stretched out his hand to press Ratolova's face. There was no touch, but his heart was connected: "It doesn't matter, the child will grow up. You are excellent, and you are also the best among the first batch of people who passed the examination. You You will have a bright future, and I am happy for you."

This AI was not indifferent at all, it made her feel warm, as if her mother was saying goodbye to her.Yes, this will be the last day of her student’s life, and she should be happy—there is no romance and comfort in Fleet Academy, and the rigor of teaching AI interferon is beyond imagination, and the learning process is like staying in hell every day middle!But it is this place that gave me a new life, a different start in my life, and the things I learned from here will benefit me for life.

"I will miss you."

After finishing speaking, the figure of the red-eyed Latolova disappeared in the corridor, behind her, the figure with the silver ring gradually faded away, and she always had a smile on her face—"Don't worry, Interferon and I will I have been with you all the time... because we are also the managers of the fleet."

I don't know which ship I will be assigned to after this practice, but it would be great if it was on a capital ship!That is the common goal of all crew members—the Twilight class is the most powerful armed force of the People's Federation, and it is a great honor just to serve on it.However, the ships of the People's Union pay attention to automation, and the scheduled crew of a ship is no more than a hundred, so the pressure of competition will be very high.

However, it is not bad to serve on the Thundercloud or Frost class. Considering that I was born as a pilot, it is not impossible to arrange for the tide class and typhoon class as auxiliary personnel... The more I think about it, the more chaotic, Ratolova quickly stopped I stopped my thoughts, but I couldn't help but think of other places.

No matter what the result is, becoming an official soldier of the fleet will be able to get a high allowance. Natasha and the others don't know how they are doing now, nor what is the situation in Kamchatka on the other side of the wormhole. Are the kids better off?

"Start the engine, check the energy transmission circuit... The take-off clearance of the 42nd tin moon shuttle has been verified, forward, one."

The square shuttle lighted up the fusion reactor, and the rotatable attitude engine around the hull emitted blue and white plasma flames downwards, allowing the body to rise lightly from the suspended platform.It is said to be a shuttle, but the body that can cross the tin moon is at least 80 meters long, no smaller than a large passenger plane. Since the opening of the tin moon route, such ships have appeared in large numbers, transporting people and goods to every place that needs it place.

The low gravity of the moon makes it not difficult to take off. The engine adjusts the attitude. What Latolova has to do in this process is to ensure the balance of the body’s output—even a small difference between the four engines will make the shuttle turn into a top. Sailing is a place where you can't go wrong.She carefully controlled the rudder and truthfully reported her operations to the monitoring interferon coach.

"This machine is about to accelerate out of the lunar gravity range."

The nose was already heading toward Sira—or the orbit that Sira would be in a few hours later.The engine on the side of the shuttle fuselage is adjusted 90 degrees parallel to the fuselage (there are height differences between the front and rear) and spouts a scorching torrent to accelerate upwards. The whole process does not have the kind of violent vibration in the atmosphere. As the shuttle leaves the lunar orbit, the rear of the fuselage The real propulsion engine suddenly lit up, and a stream of heat burst out from the nozzle and extended backward three times the length of the body. The powerful thrust doubled the speed of the shuttle in a few seconds, and it was several kilometers away from the moon in just one breath.

"The laser propulsion is running stably. The machine will accelerate for 10 minutes to reach Mach 80, and reserve 5 kilometers as a deceleration section."

Not all ships can be equipped with fusion detonation pulse engines. Laser propulsion by strong laser ablation and vaporization of solid working fluid materials has replaced traditional chemical energy rockets.The shuttle entered the channel carrying the equipment accessories smelted from the moon. This will be a journey lasting 4 hours, and she is the only one on the entire ship.

As a test, she couldn't hand over the control to VI, and the surroundings became very lonely after entering the deep space. The spherical panoramic simulation screen made the cockpit feel like being in the starry sky, and the distant stars flickered slightly, but they had nothing to do with you.The moon has been thrown behind and looked like a stone ball, the lights of the base can no longer be seen clearly, and Sira stands quietly in front, it is so real and so illusory, it seems that the world has nothing to do with you.

The only thing that can make you feel good on this journey is those ships that are also sailing on the same route. Their flashing tail flames can tell you that you are not alone-deep space navigation is similar to deep sea diving, which has a great impact on the psychological quality of personnel. Demanding, cases of "macrophobia" have been reported, there's so much we don't know about spaceflight, and toddlers have to stumble to grow.

"The heart rate is 130 per minute... Breathing, increasing the oxygen concentration in the cabin. This is just a test. I am like a sailor in the age of great voyages. There are countless surprises worthy of attention on the way to the other shore."

According to the recommendations of the Human Life Society, astronauts should be provided with a good working environment, including but not limited to a simulated natural environment, social interaction and online entertainment.But the folks are good, for the army with heavy tasks but insufficient manpower, they can only endure it with strong willpower, and there is such a sentence.

"A fish out of water is no longer a fish, but what about people out of the ground?"

Latolova did not waste time, faithfully recorded the voyage report, and recorded the time and position of every ship passing by.Now we can briefly explain the navigation and positioning of the spacecraft. In the three-dimensional space, there are only subjective up, down, left, and right directions. Then, the direction pointed by the bow of the ship is set as the 0 o’clock direction of the clock, and then divided into 12 intervals in turn.

This is consistent with the army and navy standards, but ABCD is divided above the head, and EFGH is divided into four blocks under the feet. Each block includes three time zones to specify the orientation, for example——

"Come on, Area A2, an observation ship at a distance of 8.36 kilometers. It has been confirmed as the Dusk-class capital ship 'Supreme Authority' through the question-and-answer procedure!"

You are so good at distinguishing the difference between warships. The signal lights on the side of the Twilight-class ship that is cruising around the tin moon and preparing for combat are constantly sending out safety signals in Morse code. You can’t see the hull of the graceful and slender warship tens of thousands of kilometers away, but The nuclear flame ejected by the fusion detonation pulse engine stretches for several kilometers and is ten times as long as the hull, which is so eye-catching in optical observation.

Battleship... Latolova looked at the Twilight class in the distance with longing. If one day she could take such a miraculous warship and return to her hometown, the general Kanifik who changed her destiny would recognize herself more Bar?

Suddenly, a signal came in, and a strange majestic male voice came in, and the source was the Supreme Authority not far away!

"Shuttle Trainer Ratolova No. 42? I just mentioned you. Listen, I am Captain Geralt, the captain of the Supreme Authority. Your test has been completed ahead of schedule, and you will report to the Fleet Command as soon as you arrive in the Eternal City." !"

"Ah? Yes, sir!" Ratolova replied immediately, but did not forget to ask what happened in a panic. "Is there any mission, Colonel?"

"Mission?" The colonel seemed to be amused, "The mission is to board the ship immediately when waiting for the ship to berth at the port! I will arrange the procedures for you. From now on, you will be the crew member of the ship. Do you understand? You are not allowed to board other ships. ,This is an order!"

The great joy fell from the sky, making Ratolova a little speechless, and could only keep saying yes.Unlike her, on the bridge of the Supremacy, Colonel Geralt, who was sitting high on the captain's seat, smiled and was criticized by the political and military officers. The number two person on the ship looked helplessly Geralt.

"Personnel deployment must comply with the regulations. Student Ratolova was originally assigned to the Leiyun class commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Nankitazawa as an adjutant. How could you snatch her halfway? She could have been at the command level, but she came to you. I can be a soldier."

"This can't be calculated in this way. The future prospects of serving in the Dusk-class and serving in the Thundercloud-class are different. After a few more years of patience, she may be able to independently command a capital ship. I do it for her own good."

The colonel with his chin on the back of his crossed hands didn't care: "Besides, what's wrong with robbing people? The top of the first batch of qualified personnel is the elite of the elite, and it's worth my effort! I won't rob, wait for others to rob?"

PS: This is from yesterday, but it is still there today.

Chapter 220 Seven: The Road to Heaven

"Aenea, don't run around, slow down!"

It only takes more than 4000 hours to travel 4 kilometers from the capital of the Blue Eye Islands by equatorial vacuum tube maglev train. When the train stops and the pipeline is sealed and refilled, passengers can walk to the station with their luggage.The vast underground station hall is brightly lit, with dark obsidian floor tiles, and two children sit on Dom's broad shoulders—one is his daughter, and the other is the son of Marcus and Anya, who just turned ten years old this year. JD.

Ahead, his wife Maria calls for their adopted daughter Aenea, a 14-year-old laughing and running around the station hall.It’s like an excursion. JD couldn’t help but climb off Dom’s shoulders because of the liveliness of Aenea’s sister. If Dom’s little daughter is not too young, the three of them will definitely turn this station into a playground .

Dom looked at the passengers around with some embarrassment, apologizing for the noise of the children, but they were greeted with "understanding" smiles and jokes: "It's okay, my children are more naughty, but you have so many children."

This is a bit... Dom scratched his head, and sighed to his wife Maria: "Marcus and Anya are really, they just stayed on the earth, JD had to stay with us, and he won't come now have a look."

"I heard that Anya has resigned. They rarely see each other every two years. Let's give some private time. We can see each other more in the future...Look, JD seems to like Aenea very much."

In front, JD was chasing after Aenea, who was a head taller than him, holding her hand and refusing to let go. Aenea reached out to grab her hair without hugging him.This kid is really skilled enough, I don't know if it's a childhood play or something, if Li Zhi sees that ghost, he knows what kind of association he will have.

Dom was thoughtful: "JD is also a boy."

It is rare for a family to come out to play, but there are really many people who come to this "Bichao Bay". Even if the population of Thira is not large, this seaside station is almost crowded.Please don't get me wrong, there are only a few major cities in Thira with permanent population, 90.00% of the land is uninhabited, only some resource collection stations and a bunch of drones are remotely controlled.This Bichao Bay was unknown before, and it has been planning to build a giant offshore platform since ten years ago. At that time, no one knew what it was for, but now the eyes of the whole Sira are gathered here, Anyone with a bit of free time rushed here today to see the grand occasion.

People's Federation citizens take public trains for free, but airships are not free.On the ground station, several passages have been used to divert the crowd. It seems that tall buildings have been erected overnight along the way. On the wide coast, spiral wind turbines stand like forests, and dark solar panels are all over the inland. It's a hot area, but there's no biodome here to shield them from the heat.Drones come and go. A company has already set up an airship field near the coast. Hundreds of multi-layered airships are preparing to take off. It is not an easy task to book tickets on this busy day. , but Dom always has a way.

Boarding the airship, as the height rises, you can have a panoramic view of everything from the large and bright floor-to-ceiling windows. When a huge black land in the ocean appears in sight, everyone is shocked by the scene speechless.

"Uncle Dom, what's that?"

Not only was Aenea stunned, but JD also had a big mouth - because it was so big, it was like a piece of land made of alloy!It floats in the ocean in the shape of a hexagram, and each corner is [-] meters above sea level, enough for the largest oil tanker to drive directly in.It is impossible to estimate how deep it is under the surface of the sea. Perhaps it can only be made so big that it can remain motionless in the turbulent waves. After all, when the airship rises to a height of [-] meters, people can barely see the edge of the artificial land.

"That is the base of the orbital elevator. It has been planned since ten years ago. The drones have been working day and night. Since five years ago, an average of 3 million tons of steel and [-] billion tons of materials have been consumed every year. Not only that, but also the entire The bay has been rebuilt with artificial dikes, which were only recently completed."

Dom wasn't talking nonsense, he just underestimated the difficulty of the project.The base of the orbital elevator will be relatively consistent with the Eternal City, and it must be selected in a shallow sea close to the land—because the rotation of the planet and geological movement will inevitably bring about torsion, this will be fatal to the orbital elevator. Artificial floating islands can use seawater as a buffer, but the cost is a terrible amount of engineering.

This floating island has a diameter of 30 kilometers and covers an area of ​​about [-] square kilometers. It will not be crowded if the entire population of Thira is thrown on it. It is not just for arranging an elevator. It will integrate a whole set of aerospace industries, covering scientific research, An automated city with a series of functions such as warehousing!

There is no doubt that there is an airport on it, and the corner extending outward from the sea is also a port, while the corner facing inland has a huge opening, from which a wide bridge can be built to connect the inland, with trucks on the first floor and special trains on the second floor , the cargo throughput will not be lower than that of the Blue Eye Islands as the capital.

"Orbital elevator!" The children's spirits were greatly shocked, and they pointed to the eye-catching white cylinder in the center of the base, which pierced into the sky and exclaimed, "That's an elevator, an elevator that can lead to space! It's so big, it can Can a lot of people sit on it?"

"I've heard that the orbital elevator will be built in three phases. The first phase is now, and it can only transport goods, but in a few years, the second phase will be a low-speed vertical personnel train around the central cylinder. Everyone can Go to space, no need to consider whether the body is qualified."

Dom pressed the heads of JD and Aenea, and suddenly remembered: "Aenea is a pilot, and now it is feasible to take the space shuttle to space."

The two kids are fighting again, but today's highlight is coming - the first run of the orbital elevator!

In this way, rising to a height of 30.00 kilometers, it is the location of the Eternal City.The "City of Miracles" is now quite different from the past, and its structure has been increased by several pieces, increasing its volume by [-]%.The orbit in which the largest creation of the United Nations is now is no longer enough for it, the gravity of Sira is holding it, and it needs to open the plasma vents against the planet, this has been going on for a long time, it is time to end up.

Ensger walked slowly in the power control hall of the Eternal City, rows of data flashed through his thoughts, and with his thoughts, the holographic interface surrounding the hall was constantly changing the parameters.

"The opening of the first stage of the orbital elevator will be good news. After calculation, the space transportation capacity of the People's Federation will increase by 40%, and the key components of the circumsolar accelerator will also rely on elevator transportation."

The Eternal City, if you remember, is a space city of superimposed series of rings held in place by a central "keel", as are the orbital elevators, made of carbon nanotubes The [-]-kilometer-long "rope ladder" weaved together was dropped from the bottom of the Eternal City to the surface, like a cable, or more vividly, a silk thread holding a balloon?Let the Eternal City be connected with the ground, and the sky be connected with the earth.

Based on the communication of materials such as clustered nanotubes, the Eternal City once maintained a balance. The rotation of the planet is like a person throwing a lasso to keep the two stable. However, the Eternal City will become bigger and bigger in the future, and sooner or later this place will Can't stay.

"Your will will be conveyed to the earth, and your kingdom will ascend to heaven."

Following Ensig's words, the Eternal City sounded the alarm, all the personnel returned to the room, and the parked spaceships were also strengthened, and then, a miracle happened——

Ratolova, who was [-] kilometers away, saw with her own eyes that the Eternal City was disconnected!

No, not simply disconnect!There are three rings on the base of the elevator connected to the ground orbit, but the keel where the other four rings are located is separated from them. With the help of a series of booster engines, this huge space city slowly gets rid of the gravity of Sira and goes deeper into space. Float away.

This, this is why!
