Chapter 331: Crescent Base

After a short period of superlight flight, the Wannian Fengxue successfully returned to hyperspace.

However, instead of returning directly to Wandering Earth, it docked in a space dock built above the new satellite of Wandering Earth's orbit, the Eye of Gerros, which is the base of the human space fleet.

In fact, it should no longer be called the Eye of Gerelos, because the coalition government has chosen a formal name for this earth satellite-the crescent moon, which can be called the new moon, or the crescent moon, In short, this is the new name for the Eye of Gerros.

It is undeniable that the name was obtained simply and rudely, but it received the most popular support.

After all, in cultures around the world, the moon always represents miss, and now people also pin this miss on this new earth satellite, and the "Crescent Moon" has naturally become the name with the highest number of votes.

Qiao Li also thinks the name is good, at least much better than the long and smelly name of Eye of Gerros. From that day on, the new Earth satellite was officially named the new moon.

After the Wannian Fengxue stabilized in the space dock, Qiao Li stepped out of the hatch, and then descended to the surface of the crescent moon through a long space elevator.

After a month of construction, the space facilities here have been initially completed. A large area of ​​continuous dome-type airtight cabins, clusters of solar panels, mineral generators relying on heavy nuclear fusion technology, and various other industrial or military facilities.

Here it has become a lunar city, mainly through a distant planetary engine transmission tower like a metal mountain to maintain transportation with the wandering earth.

When the quantity of things to be transported is particularly large, they are also transported by launching launch vehicles, just like the sea on the earth, which is used to supplement the insufficient transport capacity of the transmission tower.

With the space elevator as the center, there are other space facilities within a radius of 500 kilometers, which is much smaller than the dock where the 10,000-year-old Fengxue docks.

They are scattered sporadically, like nomadic tents on the prairie in the early stages of the western development of the United States, which is a prelude to the large-scale entry of humans into space.

Among them, the space dock that has just begun construction is the largest, and its volume may be dozens of times that of the Ten Thousand Years Snowstorm, but currently only a construction frame is set up, like the skeleton of a giant monster.

This is used to build higher-level star warships, such as those used in space battleships such as the Ark.

At present, the daily maintenance of the Ark is still performed on the ground. Not only is it troublesome and inefficient, it can be called five minutes for two hours of maintenance. This is also a major reason why the stray earth rarely uses the Ark.

这个 With this space dock large enough to accommodate battleships, the daily maintenance of the Ark will become much more convenient. Without being bound by gravity in space, many troublesome operations on the ground become a breeze.

This is the crescent base of Wandering Earth. It can be described as a human outpost for space development. It can also operate independently from the earth when necessary. It has now been identified as the headquarters of the future human space fleet.

Responsible for managing here is the representative of the United Kingdom, George, a permanent member of the coalition government. At the same time, he is also the main person in charge of the construction of the Wandering Earth Space Army. Fleet management and construction are his strengths, but what is needed now is a space fleet. .

After arriving at the surface of the planet, Qi Qiaolu came to the Commander of the Crescent Base to say hello to him. It is also possible to understand what happened to Wandering Earth during his absence.

George greeted him warmly and personally introduced to Qiao Li the current situation on the wandering earth and the crescent base.

"I never thought it would be so difficult this time," George sighed. "The enemy actually made the moon down."

Qi Qiaolu nodded and said, "Yeah, thanks to the support of Wannian Fengxue, otherwise we would have to give up that plane."

一次 The one that played a key role this time was the Wannian Fengxue. The importance of developing the space fleet is obvious. A qualified space civilization cannot have an interstellar warship.

George continued: "We are also preparing for the construction of the next interstellar warship. The initial plan is a destroyer-class battleship, which is expected to be three times the size of the Wannian Fengxue. We hope to further strengthen the combat capability of our space army."

Following the direction of his sight, Qiao Li saw that there is a larger dock next to the Wannian Fengxue Dock. Inside it is the skeleton of a starship that is gradually forming, which is probably what George called a destroyer.

"Although it is still in the stage of constructing the skeleton, only after the skeleton is completed and the construction materials are put on, we can use the energy of the tinder to make it quickly shape, and the Wannian Fengxue is also completed like this." George explained.

It seems that the completion of this destroyer will not be too far away. As the most widely used ship in the modern navy, this class of ships in space should also be able to play a lot of roles.

It's just that this ship is equivalent to three 10,000-year-old Fengxue, which is a behemoth with the size of six spacecrafts. It is only a destroyer class in the space fleet.

There are almost tens of thousands of people on the 10,000-year-old Fengxue ship. Such a destroyer may have tens of thousands of people. Think of higher-level cruisers and battleships, or even larger spacecraft carriers. By then, it would not be possible to form a population of a planet.

Bian Qiaolu couldn't help asking: "What standards do we have for these starships? Are you setting up a standard to classify them?"

George shook his head and said, "No, it is calculated according to the standards of the Cybertron civilization. From the Ark, which is the highest-ranking battleship, we know that the Wannian Fengxue should be a frigate."

"So it is."

The Ark Ark is a product of the ancient Cybertron civilization, and the standards adopted are naturally extremely high. At present, the stray earth can hardly be considered.

If it is not calculated according to such strict standards, the Wannian Fengxue will not be classified as a frigate.

"Is this okay? To build a space fleet according to this standard ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Qiao Lu asked with some worry.

George said with a smile: "No problem, we have no experience in building space fleets ourselves, and we are more likely to deviate from the actual situation to set a standard ourselves. Besides, when facing other interstellar races, the other party will not follow the 'human's Standards' to fight our fleet. "

It is not unreasonable to say so. In this vast universe, there is not only a race of human beings. The stray earth needs to face, nor can it be a human fleet.

要求 It is better to ask ourselves according to the highest standards than to hang the "Hengxing" on your mouth all day long like the humans in "Three Body". As a result, even a drop of water cannot be beaten.

Pride is the biggest obstacle to survival, so it seems that carefully classifying the Wannian Fengxue as a frigate is a kind of alert to the wandering earth.

In the vast universe, there will always be more powerful enemies. Wandering Earth may just be watching the sky now. Since the ancient Cybertron civilization has left such a standard, first follow this standard as a goal!
