"Welcome the hero to return." Zhang Qiyun personally went to the scene to receive the returning Zhao Ke.
"Your Majesty." Zhao Ke greeted respectfully. Zhang Qiyun is still your Majesty no matter what, even if he is twice as young as Zhao Ke!
"Commander Zhao's military merit is being considered, and it is expected to take a month. During this period, Commander Zhao and the generals can take a rest and wander around on Venus. After a while, Venus and the Earth are expected to start migrating in advance. .
For our safety and to protect the ancestral planet to the greatest extent, we cannot start migrating until extreme circumstances. Maybe it will be a luxury to live on Venus for a long time in the future.
Let's go and have a meal of delicacies first. ”
"Venus and the Earth are going to migrate in advance?" Zhao Ke was a little surprised. Of course, since Zhang Qiyun said it in front of so many people, it should not be a secret.
"Yes, the center of the Milky Way is getting weirder and weirder, and the situation has exceeded expectations." Zhang Qiyun said with a tired tone, "A super wormhole may have appeared, which has caused a rupture in space. The center of the Milky Way has become a place of death, and This land of death has begun to spread and invade the surrounding areas.
Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s go have a meal first and then think about our current problems.
Ha, people are like iron rice and steel. Only after eating food can you be able to work. Why not suffer? It's better to suffer in the stomach! ”
"Ha... Your Majesty is really... humorous!" Zhao Ke was speechless about Zhang Qiyun. Is this really an emperor? Not a little scoundrel?
However, it seems understandable that anyone who has sat in the same position for thousands of years will face tremendous pressure every day and must show some character. Otherwise, after a thousand years of meticulous work, the gods will become sick.
Afterwards, the two parties chatted while eating. Lala also shared her current situation and opinions with each other. Because it was a conversation at the dinner table, it was not so intense, but the communication started calmly.
Some scientists began to complain: "First try to move a few living planets, mainly to shuttle through subspace gates. Then when the technology matures, we will start relocating the Earth and Venus. The most difficult technology at present is how to ensure that subspace shuttles , the problem of fragile planet protection."
This can't be said to be a complaint, it can only be said to be a complaint, because this task is really difficult! The country and even the entire nation require Venus and the Earth to complete the migration perfectly. This is a symbol of Chinese civilization! One is a symbol of the past and origins, and the other is a symbol of the new era, both of which have immeasurable significance!
same. In the interstellar migration, retaining two such living planets can not only leave a spiritual mark for Chinese civilization, but also a memory, belief, a symbol of civilization's endless struggle, and a hope; on the other hand, such as In the future, one-day trips to Venus and Earth, etc., will become important rewards!
Zhang Qiyun took over. "The entire Great Migration is expected to spend 5,000 years in the void. This is a more reasonable minimum time. For such a long time, if we can only stay in a metal-shell spacecraft without a single material yearning, it will actually be Very dangerous thing.
But considering the difficulty and energy consumption of long-term migration, we can only migrate to Venus and the Earth. The rest had to give up. However, the data on the rest of the planets and so on have been recorded with our current technology. After finding another star system, we can completely rebuild a solar system.
As a symbol of civilization, the solar system must be restored. ”
No matter what kind of people there are, they all agree with this statement. The solar system, even a fake solar system. It must also be there. A civilization in the interstellar world needs a spiritual home and hometown; and the spiritual home of Chinese civilization is the solar system! What is the solar system? That's holy land!
However, this is also the current state of China's top management, and a good dinner has become a venue for discussing the future. But no one is surprised or disgusted, because this is already a problem that Chinese civilization must face now, and it is also a problem that faces every citizen.
Suddenly, Zhang Qiyun, who was talking, received a message. He opened it and laughed: "Everyone, our first project of ultra-long-range spacecraft has made breakthrough progress. The prototype of the star frigate has been successful. Many of you are interested." It's a general and a hero. Let's visit together later and give us your opinions.
By the way, as a reminder, this is the first time since our Chinese civilization entered space that we have officially divided the various applications and levels of spacecraft. ”
"Oh? Why weren't they divided before?" When talking about this, many people were curious. All spaceships in the empire are divided according to size. There is no division of frigates, battleships, and attack ships like others. They have always been unable to make the distinction. Few people are confused.
"The technology is not up to par!" At this time, Chen Feng spoke, "After all, we are developing too fast, and there are many things that we have no time to refine. For example, spaceships. In fact, all our spaceships have the same technology before. Later, a few engines were added and subtracted, and the weapon system and defense system were replaced. In the final analysis, all spaceships have different sizes and shapes, but they are all derivatives of the same model. Of course, there is one that does not exist. Necessary.
But things are different now. On the one hand, technology has been accumulated enough, and on the other hand, we have to make changes because of the Great Migration Plan.
First of all, what our Academy of Sciences cooperated with the military to develop is the current star frigate.
Compared with traditional spacecraft, this kind of spacecraft has warp flight, space movement, and space energy-gathering ring technologies. Two or more ships can use joint space shuttle flight technology. The speed can be adjusted at will from zero to 1000 times the speed of light.
In addition, extensive use of small space technology has allowed the spacecraft to be compressed to less than three kilometers. The smallest unmanned frigate is only three hundred meters in size, has sharp attack power, and can even perform beheading operations.
Of course, more will be said on site. ”
"Let's go now!" Zhao Ke couldn't sit still; no soldier doesn't like spaceships, especially powerful ones. As a front-line officer, Zhao Ke felt the most deeply; especially in this battle, many places It is because of speed, volume, lack of power, etc. that the losses increase; if everything can be optimized by ten percent, the losses will be smaller!
(The Sons of Deep Blue crawled out from hell, we were all wiped out, what else do you want!)
In fact, everyone couldn't sit still when they heard that the prototype was successful, including Zhang Qiyun. The test location of the frigate is in the outer reaches of the solar system, but this is not a problem for China now. In less than ten minutes, a small spacecraft arrived at the test base, and China's senior officials gathered together. Although prosthetic technology is available, it cannot compare with direct observation on site.
After verifying their identities, the group entered the space factory, or space continent. This is a space continent with a diameter of 100,000 kilometers. It can be seen that this space continent is very busy. Spaceships of different sizes are constantly rising and falling. Various conveyor belts and robots on the ground are constantly busy. One after another parts are being produced at a rapid pace. . These mainly include parts for the frigate. Once the prototype passes inspection, it will enter the large-scale production stage.
With China's current technology, it is really not easy to produce a spacecraft below three kilometers. This 100,000-kilometer-long space continent can rearrange a production line by just tinkering with it in any corner.
Of course, some key technologies still need to be improved.
"Your Majesty is welcome." Chen Yuanfang, the head of the space factory, led all available personnel to greet him.
Zhang Qiyun waved his hand: "Okay, okay, let everyone do their own thing. You should know that I hate formalism the most (yes, take out what Zhang Jingyuan said when he scolded himself).
Have you arranged the driver? ”
"Everything is ready, just waiting for His Majesty's review."
"Yeah!" Zhang Qiyun nodded.
Waiting for high-level review does not mean waste or the like, but a different kind of "signature". As long as Zhang Qiyun nods, the production of the spacecraft below will go much smoother, and no one will dare to violate it! Don’t forget, this is the interstellar age. Chinese civilization is expanding every moment. A large number of spaceships have always been in short supply, and many orders have been scheduled for a hundred years!
Under such circumstances, if you want to make the production factory give way to the military who jumped in line, you need an absolutely strong reason. Many companies have detailed plans. If huge losses are caused due to late delivery of the spacecraft, they will definitely not do it! Of course, the empire must personally negotiate in this regard; although everything must be compromised for the Great Migration, what is the purpose of the Great Migration? Isn't it the development of civilization? Therefore, Zhang Qiyun cannot act recklessly.
Of course, the country and the military have some factories of their own, but if we want to complete the migration of the entire population, it is not enough to rely solely on military industry. Ninety percent of the spaceship needs still have to be sourced from the private sector.
Soon, under the leadership of Chen Yuanfang, everyone came to a "shipyard", where a small spaceship was docked on the dock.
In fact, the so-called small size only refers to large spaceships. The 2.7-kilometer-long prototype is not a small thing. In the ground era, it is enough to dominate the fate of a planet.
There were already engineers ready nearby. After seeing Zhang Qiyun and his party arriving, they immediately began to "follow the script."
"Star frigate prototype No. 1 is 2,760 meters long, 1,123 meters high, and slightly wider at 1,500 meters. Compared with the current spacecraft design, it adopts a three-way asymmetric oblate elliptical design. In addition, in order to arrange more weapons, The spacecraft adopts a pea pod style design, and each drum has a space energy-gathering ring technology.
In addition, between the three bulges of the spacecraft, there are two vertical space energy-gathering rings, which are the trump card for escape or straight-line pursuit. The maximum speed of the spacecraft can reach 1,000 times the speed of light, but it cannot maintain this state for a long time. If two or more spacecraft start a joint space flight, they can maintain 800 times the speed of light for a long time. (To be continued...)
