In August of SC0099, the second BH campaign ended perfectly.
The 1st Formation of the Mobile Force destroyed all military facilities and helium-3 acquisition bases in the star field, and almost completely annihilated the UAC Federation BH fleet stationed in the star field, and finally escaped less than double digits of enemy ships.
On the other hand, the losses of the 1st formation itself can be said to be negligible, none of the battleships were sunk, and the battle loss rate of mobile suits was less than one-third. However, Fengyu's two MW prototypes all suffered serious damage and could not be repaired on the battleship, and both needed to be returned to the factory for repair.
First, Rear Admiral Pank has no plan of action for the next step for the time being, and second, the fleet really needs to return to ship for replenishment and rest. So the 1st formation returned to the Tianjing Star Field, which was another long voyage that lasted three weeks.
Fengyu will not be bored, in addition to the fixed simulator training every day, he is accompanied by Lin Qianqian in his spare time. The fact that the two of them went in and out of each other was soon known on the flagship, which was the envy of the single men and women on the ship.
Of course, such a thing doesn't just happen to Fengyu alone. After experiencing a big war, there are many people who need to relax mentally, so many men and women also spontaneously pair up and make up a lot of temporary couples or bed partners. Even such a thing as a base popping chrysanthemum is not uncommon.
This kind of thing is a normal thing in the fleet, and it is not a problem, as long as the two sides are willing, the fleet leadership will naturally not intervene, but is happy that the soldiers can find the right way to relieve the pressure.
At the end of August, the 1st Formation finally returned to the Tianjing Star Field after two months of absence. Leaving the fleet in the Night Star orbit, most of the personnel of the mobile army command returned to the "Tianjing Right Eye" on a commuter ship, and Fengyu was naturally among them.
Lin Qianqian looked at Fengyu who was about to board the commuter ship with some resentment, as a logistics staff, she had to stay on the flagship, even if she had a short vacation, she was arranged in Night Star Space City, and she had no chance to go to the "right eye of Tianjing".
Feng Yu saw her pitiful appearance, so he comforted, "Don't worry, as long as I can walk away, I will come back to see you." And we don't think we'll have too much time to recuperate. ā
"It's not going to be too long, it's going to take a month or two. You promised me that you must take the time to come back with me, and you will not be allowed to rip off! Lin Qianqian took Fengyu's hand, stood on tiptoe, and took the initiative to offer a parting kiss.
It was the young and vigorous Fengyu who was naturally reluctant to leave the girl for too long, although he couldn't find the feeling of love in Lin Qianqian, he was very infatuated with her sexy body. Sometimes he feels guilty about this, feeling that he is so sorry for Lin Qianqian, and he is sorry for the love buried deep in his heart. There were a few times when he wanted to open his mouth to break off this relationship that relied on carnal desire, but he couldn't bear to hurt the girl, so he could only endure it.
"Let's see......" Feng Yu muttered quietly, not only in response to Lin Qianqian's request, but also as an answer to his inner confusion.
At this time, the announcement sounded, "The commuter ship to the 'Tianjing Right Eye' will set sail in five minutes, please take your place immediately!" ā
The announcement interrupted the entanglement between the two men, and Feng Yu waved his hand and strode up the gangway of the commuter ship.
Lin Qianqian stood in the waiting room, watching the commuter ship turn into an insignificant bright spot in the starry sky before leaving.
A few hours later, the commuter ship arrived at the "Tianjing Right Eye" airport, and Feng Yu was about to disembark with everyone, but was stopped by Rear Admiral Pan Ke. "You go to Tianjingxing with me, the landing approval procedures have been completed."
"To the military department?" Fengyu asked. He couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart, not because he went to the military headquarters to meet the military bigwigs, but because he could finally set foot on the surface of Tianjing Star.
In this era, stepping on the surface of the capital star is a status symbol, and ordinary astronauts who do not have sufficient identity and status may not be able to pass the landing approval procedures for the rest of their lives. For example, Fengyu's parents never visited Tianjing Star until they died. A trip to Tianjing is even more difficult for the astronauts of New Asia than a trip to Earth far away in the Milky Way.
And at this moment, Fengyu has enough status. His approval was approved in just a few hours on the commuter ship, which is negligible compared to the month-long review time of ordinary people, which also proves that his status has made a qualitative leap compared to the past.
According to this situation, the next time he wants to go to Tianjing, the approval process will be very easy, and it may even be possible to obtain a long-term landing permit, and even the right of residence of Tianjingxing. Yes, as long as he obtains the status of an ace pilot, he will have permanent residency in Tianjing.
It's just that this also proves the class contradictions of this era on the other hand, a Tianjing Star surface person, from the moment he was born, has the rights and interests equivalent to the ace pilot who has made great contributions to the military. But an astronaut has to make great efforts for this right, even at the cost of his life.
Human society has never been truly fair.
The commuter ship is berthed at the Tianjing Star L1 Space City, where Feng Yu and Rear Admiral Pan Ke will transfer to the landing spacecraft. The Tianjing Star Customs Entry and Exit Checkpoint is also set up here, blocking people who have not been approved for landing in space only a few hundred kilometers above the surface.
Major General Pan Ke led Fengyu from the fast lane into the VIP lounge of the landing spacecraft, and all the two had to do was ask the customs officers to scan the identity information in the battlefield recorder. And ordinary people lined up in front of the checkpoint counter.
In the face of this special treatment, the young Fengyu can't help but be a little complacent.
At this time, Major General Pan Ke seemed to see through what he was thinking, and patted him on the shoulder, "Do a good job!" Your future will be brighter! ā
"The future?" Feng Yu suddenly thought of Li Xingyan. As a member of the wealthy family of Tianjing, how far is he from that unreachable girl?
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the VIP room, Fengyu can clearly see the blue Tianjing Star in front of him, and the blue sea, green earth, and white clouds are intertwined into a beautiful picture.
That's the desire of countless astronauts!
Aren't their ancestors leaving the crowded solar system and traveling through wormholes to a new world in pursuit of such a beautiful planet? However, most of these people are trapped in the space city, and the beautiful planetary surface has become an unattainable dream.
The view of the Tianjing star from L1 is beautiful, and one can linger for a whole day. It is ridiculous that in this highly technologically advanced space age, information is even more closed. It's not just because of the interference of R particles, it's more because of human control. Before today, Fengyu had never seen this picture in any media.
All of this is based on a security decree - Article 27 of the New Asian Constitution: "In order to maintain the security of the capital star, no one shall use any media equipment to shoot the picture of the Tianjing star in L1 Space City, and no one shall disseminate the picture of the Tianjing star in any form." ā
Article 27 of the Constitution is ostensibly for the safety of the capital star, but in fact the ruling class does not want too many astronauts to see this beautiful picture.
If you can't see it, you won't have the desire to have it, and even if you imagine something out of thin air, no matter how beautiful it is, it won't make people have a strong desire to possess. Just like the lives of the rich, for the dicks, it only exists in the imagination, and before they see it with their own eyes, everything is just their own imagination, and it is so far away. But once an ordinary person is allowed to enter the circle of the rich and witness their lives, the desire will be irrepressible.
Desire is the driving force of human progress, but it is also the fuse of human contradictions. All wars and strife are based on the thirst for desire. In order to avoid the intensification of such internal contradictions, the ruling class on the surface has carried out comprehensive control of information and turned the capital star into a Garden of Eden that cannot be easily accessed by astronauts.
"Don't look at it, there will be opportunities in the future, it's time to go down." I don't know how long time passed, and Major General Pan Ke patted Fengyu on the shoulder again and pointed to the landing ship moored at the airport.
