Super Dimension Technology Era

In the starry sky, a faint light shines from the orbit of the moon towards the blue star.

Compared with before, the space debris in the orbit of the Blue Moon system has been greatly reduced.

The space battleship Huo Qubing, spewing plasma and neutron streams, is returning from the lunar orbit to the Blue Star low-Earth orbit, and its destination is the New Jiuquan Satellite City.

It takes about 7 hours to get from the moon to the New Jiuquan Satellite City. Space navigation is not as good as ordinary people imagine.

The Huo Qubing class is a hastily designed space battleship. In terms of comfort and user-friendly design, it can only be said to be barely adequate.

The first-generation products all had minor flaws of one kind or another. If it hadn't been for nanorobots and neutrino detectors, Huo Qubing would have had countless accidents.

Wang Gangsheng, who was addicted to smoking, poured a piece of tobacco chewing gum into his mouth and chewed this weird tobacco chewing gum.

On one side is Luo Feng floating on the roof of the cabin. He is reading an e-book. Although he can read it wholeheartedly through the biocomputer, Luo Feng still prefers to browse and read directly.

"Captain, do you want to return to Blue Star?" Gunner Zhou Yuan asked boredly.

"Not for now." Luo Feng refused to take a leave to return to the Blue Star surface.

Because he knew that Blue Star's space transportation flight resources were very tight, and there was obviously a shortage of transportation capacity both in and out of outer space.

"Then I won't go back either."

Luo Feng frowned: "Ayuan, this is not a mandatory requirement. The same applies to you. If you want to return to Blue Star, apply immediately."

After all, this is the rule of the War Council. During normal service, he is entitled to 5 days of family leave per month. He just personally does not want to go back to Blue Star. This cannot be imposed on all his colleagues.

"Um...Captain, I really don't want to go back."

"Don't force yourself. If you want to go back and apply as soon as possible," Luo Feng advised.

Faced with Luo Feng's persuasion, everyone was still very conscious and understood that the space transportation resources of the new humanity at this stage should not be wasted on visiting relatives.

This is a difficult early stage. Once this period of time has passed and space transportation capabilities have increased, it will not be too late to return to Blue Star.

Luo Feng had no choice but to continue reading.

Time flew by.

The Huo Qubing slowly stopped at the dock of the New Jiuquan Satellite City.

Engineers from the New Jiuquan Shipyard quickly took over the Huo Qubing and prepared to carry out a comprehensive transformation of the Huo Qubing.

For example, the first-generation nuclear fusion engine was replaced with a second-generation nuclear fusion engine, some facilities in the cockpit and rest cabin were modified, and a 300-ton cabin was added.

Luo Feng was floating on the traffic pipe. Through the transparent partition, he could see that a space battleship much larger than the Huo Qubing was being processed in the dock next to the Huo Qubing.

"Is this Xinxing provincial level?" Xiao Bing exclaimed.

"Probably." Luo Feng knew that the Mars expedition fleet would be equipped with 2 to 3 new provincial-level space battleships.

Wang Gangsheng, who floated to the side, asked: "Our new flagship should be Xinxing provincial level, right?"

"It depends on the situation." Luo Feng was not sure.

Generally speaking, there are many considerations for a fleet's flagship, one of which is that its survivability must be strong enough.

Among the aircraft carrier fleets in the AD era, aircraft carriers would not be used as flagships, mainly because the targets were too large and could easily be focused.

The space fleet will also refer to this situation and may set the flagship on a first-level battleship or a second-level battleship, depending on the situation.

Luo Feng and a group of crew members first reported to the War Commission's office in the New Jiuquan Satellite City, and then stayed temporarily in a dormitory arranged by the War Commission for a week.

Because the renovation project of Huo Qubing's hospital will take a week.

After taking a shower, Luo Feng felt refreshed. The small cabin on Huo Qubing's hospital can make people feel very depressed. It's very uncomfortable to have more than a dozen people crowded together.

Arriving at the public canteen of New Jiuquan Satellite City, Wang Gangsheng, Zhou Yuan and others were already eating.

"Captain, would you like a bottle?" Wang Gangsheng asked, holding a specially designed wine bottle.

"And there's wine?" Luo Feng took it.

Wang Gangsheng explained: "A winery in my hometown has just launched space products. I heard from the canteen chef that they were delivered just the day before yesterday."

Luo Feng opened the bottle cap and took a sip: "Huh, not bad, I haven't had such good rice wine for a long time."

Wang Gangsheng laughed while holding the sauced beef: "Haha, the green and red wine in my hometown is good, right?"

"nice one."

After speaking, Luo Feng floated towards the dining table. Looking at the dazzling array of vegetables, fruits and meats, he quickly took a lot.

On Huo Qubing, the food came and went in the same way, but it was not as fresh and rich as the food here in Xinjiuquan Satellite City.

Unlike food on the ground, space food is vacuum-packed and has a strong taste because astronauts have varying degrees of taste degradation.

Picking up a bag of microwave-heated spicy beef, opening the seal, Luo Feng took a sip of green and red wine and ate the spicy beef.

Zhou Yuan on the side will squeeze out an orange juice ball from the orange juice bottle, and then suck the orange juice ball floating in front of him into his mouth.

After eating a bag of spicy beef, Luo Feng picked up a bag of cherry tomatoes. During the long space voyage, they had not had fresh fruits and vegetables for more than a month.

Everyone ate a lot of fruits and vegetables. Because the new human digestive system is assisted by a biological computer, there are no taboos on food.

"Phew!" He took the last sip of green and red wine into his mouth, and Luo Feng floated in the cafeteria, feeling a sense of satisfaction all over his body.

Suddenly a shadow blocked the light.

"Luo Feng, long time no see."

Huh? When Luo Feng opened his eyes, he saw a familiar figure and blurted out: "Isn't your kid in the North Atlantic Fleet?"

The man had a shaved head and bright eyes. He pulled Luo Feng to his seat and then explained: "I have been transferred to the Space Force. I am in the Mars Expedition Fleet. Please take good care of my little brother in the future."

"You are the commander of the Tiandan fleet, why did you choose the Space Force?" Luo Feng asked with a smile.

Fang Shengliang complained speechlessly: "Now that there are no enemies inside Blue Star, should the fleet use gamma rays to kill mosquitoes?"

"That's true." Luo Feng thought of some rumors from the past few days.

I heard that the War Council is planning to cut down the army in the Blue Star. It is estimated that each legion in the star will be reduced to about 3%, and then some of the people will be transferred to the Space Force establishment.

Obviously this is the general trend. After all, there are no enemies inside Blue Star, and there is no need to maintain an extremely large army.

The War Council wants to focus its energy on the Space Force. In the future, enemies will appear outside the Blue Moon system. It is enough to maintain a certain strength within the Blue Star. The focus is on the universe outside the Blue Star.

Luo Feng and Fang Shengliang were old classmates and comrades-in-arms, and they talked a lot about the moon and Blue Star.

From the other party's words, Luo Feng became more certain that major disarmament was unavoidable and that the wheels of history were rolling forward.

"Sheng Liang, your father has agreed to your transfer to the Mars Expedition Fleet?"

"Now is a new era. An old antique like him should be dismissed and returned to work. I can decide my own affairs." Fang Shengliang replied nonchalantly.

Luo Feng shook his head helplessly.

In fact, the New Human Army is not monolithic. For example, the young factions such as Fang Shengliang and Luo Feng, and the mature factions such as Wang Zhen do not like each other.

Perhaps this is what the teacher said: "There are many different factions in the party," and everyone is always different.
