Chapter 304 Feitian

Federal calendar 1525, the summer of the graduation season.

The 1021st Graduation Ceremony of Birah Star Aerospace Academy.

As a representative of outstanding graduates, Yun Xinghe, who is over 25 years old and wearing a handsome uniform, delivered a humorous and meaningful speech in the circular staircase hall:

"Dear teachers, dear students, good morning."

"I believe that most of the people here should know my face. Of course, it's not very handsome, and some people are annoying. Maybe some people will greet this face like this: Hey, isn't this the great Captain Galaxy? Listen Say you found dozens and dozens of habitable planets for humans, enough to give everyone one?"

"Yes, I did find so many planets, of course, in a dream (audience laughs)."

"Everyone, don't laugh, I really had this kind of dream. In that dream, there was a star system with more planets than pinballs, densely packed, and there were too many to count. I was so happy at the time, and directly I woke up laughing from my dream (laughing from the audience)."

"Of course, dreams can be made, but dreams never change."

"My dream, like the dreams of everyone present, is to expand more living space for human beings and the Federation."

"I'm not a great man, and I joined the interstellar development, not to prove how great I am, how noble and great I am, it's just the genetic genes left by my ancestors in my body, these genes tell me: The Yun family is a It is difficult for us to stay in one place for a long time as a family that exists from distant stars. Every night, when we look at the stars all over the sky, we want to go to see this one, and we also want to go to that one... The man of the Yun family, Never restless."

"The universe is full of unknowns and dangers. The vast majority of people are gone forever. My father, grandfather, and great-grandfather have 10 generations of people who have gone to distant deep space. Some of them have been confirmed dead, and some No news came back... I am the 11th generation and I am going on a journey."

"After many years, someone may ask, why did I go to that starry sky without hesitation? What influenced me, induced me, and drove me to become a great pioneer? Here, I want to answer in advance he:"

After a pause, he raised his fist and said, "It's an ideal, an impulse, a search, a kind of romance that belongs to a man, and it's because my name is Yun Xinghe."

"One day, this name will be heard like thunder and spread throughout the starry sky."

"thank you all!"

Yun Xinghe bowed.

"Clap clap clap ~"

The warm applause resounded endlessly.

……

After graduation, it was an internship on a starship.

Yun Xinghe and his small team were assigned to the 11th Fleet of the Federation, a D-class battleship of the main role, the ship was named "Dragon Ji", this starship was also the flagship of the 10th Squadron.

As a D-class battleship, Dragon Ji has a tonnage of more than 10 billion tons. It has a length of more than 3000 meters, 33 interior layers, and an average armor thickness of more than 5500mm. As for the weapons it uses, they are mainly small nuclear missiles and laser cannons. , particle cannons, powerful nuclear torpedoes, and it also carries a thousand space fighters and tens of thousands of unmanned fighters-there are as many as 3 combat and non-combatant personnel on this starship.

Even though there are more than 3 people, the interior of this advanced warship is still extremely empty, with many positions and a shortage of talents.

Over the years, the various fleets of the Federation have been constantly expanding. The starship production line is being built at full capacity, and five to ten new ships will be put into service every year. This speed is comparable to that of dumplings.

Take the 11th Fleet of Planet Birla as an example. More than 1000 years ago, the fleet departed from its mother Blue Star and arrived at Birla Star. Expanding like a soldier, the current 12th Fleet has more than 11 warships at all levels of A, B, C, D, and E.

When these warships gathered together, the brick-like shape, the densely packed three-dimensional square array, and the gorgeous flames during the weapon salvo training in the asteroid belt, all the viewers were amazed.

but……

[-] military trainings in peacetime are not as good as a real knife and gun in actual combat.

So at a party in the starship restaurant, I talked with a pilot officer with the rank of captain, and when I learned that Yun Xinghe was an interstellar explorer, his sour tone was full of envy and jealousy.

He complained: "Now is your time, the long peace, the boring training, the relaxing vacation, and the family you can see every year... Let me sometimes forget that I am a soldier. Rather, I am Work a job that pays well, but you can't get a promotion for 50 years, and you can work until you retire safely."

He looked up at Yun Xinghe and said, "At least you can get the glory, but what about us? Except in the virtual training game, using the number of virtual kills to motivate yourself, other times, There's just emptiness..."

"In Birla Star, our sense of existence is not as good as some TV stars, not as good as some master players in virtual online games, and even not as good as some popular anchors on some live broadcast platforms... We are just a bunch of poor invisible people."

He shook his head and said, "Boy, I really envy you. If God gives me another chance, I will definitely give up this military uniform and choose that handsome and cool expedition suit just like you!"

Yun Xinghe comforted him and said: "Uncle, you will come in handy in the future, you won't stay here forever for training, you will also perform some difficult tasks."

Yun Xinghe didn’t lie to him. The old man in his mind told him: About ten years later, the Blue Star Federation will announce that a group of colonial stars will be directly subordinated to administrative stars, and will be brought under the direct jurisdiction of the federation. From time to time, these fleets will be dispersed and stationed in new administrative stars to assist in the completion of the power reorganization.

However, during the execution of this task, these dedicated soldiers did not receive praise and glory, but received overwhelming doubts and abuse, such as "executor", "cold-blooded butcher", and "federal lackey". The image of federal soldiers has plummeted.

So they yearn for war. All outstanding soldiers in peacetime are eager for war, eager for a war to prove them.

But it is indeed as the flight captain said: now is the era of adventurers, and the era of military achievements may have to wait for thousands of years, and the cake of glory will not have their share for the time being.

Yun Xinghe could only express regret in his heart.

……

In the past five years, in space, only a few simple tasks of cleaning up meteorites and transporting relatively large-mass asteroids to space smelters have been completed, and these five years have passed by in a flash.

As the second officer intern, Yun Xinghe felt that he didn't learn anything on the "Dragon Ji", so he got an excellent one.

Even, on the "Dragon Ji" starship, Yun Xinghe still has a lot of time to pay attention to the completion of the manufacturing progress of the exploration spacecraft that will be assigned to him in the "Seventh Spaceship Factory" under the Star Space Exploration Bureau What percentage?What advanced equipment is installed?Has the power system adopted the "Yunxia power scheme"?How is the defense?What's the maximum battery life?
Yun Xinghe would call the factory almost every three days to inquire about these issues. If he had a flash of inspiration and needed some modification, he would take a leave of absence and go to the "Seventh Spaceship Factory" in person. Put forward your own ideas and hope that the other party can improve.

The factory naturally disagreed, and the designer fought with him many times, and even almost fought.

In the end, facing the factory’s cold reply of “Limited to cost control and unable to improve as required”, Yun Xinghe had to take out most of the savings in the bank except for the part reserved for his aunt, and took pictures in In front of the leader, the leader just glanced at the deposit number, immediately took back the disdainful sneer, and immediately called the person in charge: "Spaceship 37 is modified according to the user's request, don't ask how to change it, he wants to change it." Change whatever you want!"

At this scene, Yun Xinghe smiled, hundreds of billions of federation coins, can't they buy a detection spacecraft that cut corners in many ways?
I'm afraid I can buy ten of them!
Therefore, under Yun Xinghe's strict supervision, the No. 37 spacecraft was almost completely reworked, completely following his modification plan.

The materials used for the hull structure should be the best.

The equipment on board must be the most advanced and reliable.

After the hull line is simulated by a supercomputer, some minor adjustments are required.

After the power system was installed, tens of thousands of test runs were carried out to maximize the power curve.

In addition, the material printer used on the spaceship is two generations more advanced than the printers on similar spaceships, plus the information "encrypted packages" of millions of supplies purchased additionally, as long as these "encrypted packages" are imported into the material printer , In daily life, millions of products that need to be used can be printed out.

Such as cups, washbasins, toothpaste, toothbrushes...

Even, this physical printer can directly print out automobiles, all-terrain vehicles, communicators, and small aircrafts, which contain thousands to tens of thousands of precision parts, and can be used directly.

In the end, due to rework, modification and other reasons, it took five and a half years to complete the construction of this spaceship. The cost of the previous and subsequent expenses exceeded 800 billion federal currency, and the construction cost was ten times that of an ordinary detection spaceship. , so in the end, the leader still didn't make much money.

But the leader is still very happy. In fact, he doesn't want to cut corners, but the subsidies given by the government are too small. In order to ensure profits, it is necessary to save some expenses. After all, this factory has to complete the production tasks of more than 50 probe spacecraft every year. .

The designers, engineers, and workers who were in charge of building the spacecraft were also very happy, because a truly advanced "exploration spacecraft" that contained the wisdom and painstaking efforts of many people was completed in their hands.

Inside the factory hangar.

Standing in front of this brand new and beautiful spaceship, all participants felt a sense of accomplishment in their hearts.

Patting Yun Xinghe on the shoulder, the leader of the factory asked: "Young man, this spaceship hasn't been registered yet, let's give it a nice name."

Yun Xinghe pondered for a while, then said slowly: "Feitian."

"Feitian?"

The factory leader read it once, and murmured: "Good name, Flying Sky, if you don't fly, you can fly to the sky... This spaceship, like its name, will become a star spaceship well-known to the public. It will be recorded in the history books and be worshiped by those children..."

Looking up at the spaceship again, the leader of the factory nodded and thought: Its beautiful figure deserves those honors.
