"How's it going?" Feng Yu walked into the cockpit of the "Tropical High Pressure", and at this time, a full day had passed since leaving the sixth planet, but they still had not left the HM03 star field. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yesterday, when Fengyu gave the order to return, the high-speed ship headed for the channel to the F2 star field without delay. Even so, when they reached the narrow passage in the discrete disk, they found that a formation of five warships had blocked the passage.

Unwillingly, they wandered around for two hours, and the battleship formation blocking the passage had no intention of attacking at all when it was clear that they could see the "Tropical High Pressure", and still dutifully blocked the channel.

Although there were only five warships blocking the shipping lane, which was similar to the number of troops that fought in the 6th Planet Guard 4l4 before, at this time, the opponent had set up a position and laid out a defensive line, and a hard break could only be death. In the end, Fengyu chose to back down and ordered Stewart to change course.

In the following day, the "Tropical High Pressure" encountered the same blockade in several nearby shipping lanes, large and small. Captain Stewart eventually turned the other way around, heading for the main channel away from the F2 field, which is now the main channel to the Cape of Good Hope.

As the most important shipping lane in HM03, the UAC has used a fleet to widen this shipping lane to ensure that ships traveling between the Cape of Good Hope and the local star field can be unimpeded. It is such a spacious main channel, and now it has also been blocked.

Millions of space mines cut through a narrow stretch of 1,000 kilometers long, leaving only a small opening in the middle for at most one ship or warship. At both ends of Xiaokou, there are already many civilian spacecraft waiting to pass through a long queue, silting up on the main channel. And at the other end of the small mouth, ten battleships were on standby, and the main guns were ready to fire at any time.

"There is no way to force it through, the depth of the minefield is really not enough, and the average fleet can easily break through, but we definitely can't do it. The special ship has no main guns, and there are no mobile engineers, if Colonel Feng goes out to clear mines in person, not to mention the low efficiency, it is easy to be fired by the opponent's main guns. Stewart analyzes objectively.

Since the Battle of Taiya in SC0098 was cut off by the space machine minefield laid by the UAC and suffered a fiasco, New Asia has developed a special demining mobile suit - Mobile Engineer RMK.

Mobile Engineer RMK is actually a kind of logistics support mobile suit born by combining the dual characteristics of industrial robots and mobile suits. Its original purpose was naturally to be used for mine clearance, and the detonated bomb launcher carried was capable of firing electromagnetic shotgun bombs in an umbrella shape to induce the explosion of space aircraft mines within a quarter of a sphere in front of it and within 100 kilometers of a distance.

To put it simply, as long as a mobile engineer RMK opens the way and fires 10 rounds of detoxifying bombs, it can open up this 1,000-kilometer-deep minefield for a small ship like the "Tropical High Pressure".

This mobile suit is largely ineffective, but its thick armor is effective against fragmentation damage from mine explosions, and the two arms can be replaced according to different needs, usually a multi-purpose repair arm and a regular robotic arm holding a detonating bomb launcher.

The Tactical Sapper RMK's multi-functional repair robotic arm can carry out emergency repairs and replacement parts for battleships and mobile suits in space, which was previously done by industrial robots. However, the biggest disadvantage of industrial robots is that the degree of intelligence is not enough, and the maintenance program must be set in advance before it can be put into use, and the electromagnetic signals used by remote control industrial robots will be interfered with by R particles on the battlefield and cause communication failure.

In the face of the rapidly changing battlefield, it is obvious that people with independent judgment ability are stronger than industrial robots, so the mobile sapper RMK has quickly become active in the main battlefields of New Asia.

Since the mobile engineer RMK does not need to perform front-line combat missions, the requirements for the driver are relatively low, and there is no need to be a pilot, as long as there is a certain maintenance technology and a sense of space.

At present, the main functions of the mobile engineer RMK are demining and emergency repair. Needless to say, demining is the original intention of the design, and the greatest significance of emergency repair is to recover a large number of soldiers on the battlefield who could have been sacrificed. The tactical backpack on its back carries foam material that can be used to refill broken ships, mobile suits, and iron balls at any time.

As we all know, the reason why the iron ball is nicknamed the iron coffin is because of its fragile structure, even if it is penetrated by a 40mm particle beam weapon, it will cause the loss of the cockpit's airtight structure. A considerable number of iron ball pilots who died on the battlefield were not directly blown up, but were suffocated or frozen to death due to air leakage in the cockpit and anti-load suits.

After the appearance of this logistical support mobile suit, the battlefield survival rate of the Iron Ball Unit of the New Asian Army has greatly increased by five percentage points.

However, these have little to do with Fengyu, the level of combat he is facing is too high, even if he is injured, he has no time to deal with it on the battlefield, and there is basically no chance for the mobile sapper RMK to intervene in the repair.

Fengyu's biggest regret is not preparing a detonating bomb launcher commonly known as a Gauss shotgun. Gaussian weapons are characterized by an asynchronous linear electromagnetic induction prime mover that generates a bipolar magnetic field that accelerates the magnetic projectile in the chamber. It is a weapon that efficiently converts electromagnetic energy into kinetic energy.

Compared with the danger of using gunpowder chemical energy to convert kinetic energy, the complexity of ammunition processing, and the huge logistical pressure in the old era, Gauss weapons are clearly the best in this era. Its energy source is provided by the power furnace of the battleship, which is highly versatile and does not need to be replenished separately. Its magnetic metal projectiles are easy to process, and conventional fleets can even rely on equipment carried on logistics supply ships to mine magnetic materials on meteorites or dwarf stars for on-site processing.

Mobile Suit WS can take care of this minefield by itself as long as you prepare a Gauss shotgun in advance. But now, looking at the short distance of 1,000 kilometers, it is like a moat, trapping the "Tropical High Pressure" in the HM03 star field.

"There is no doubt that all the lanes of HM03 should already be defended by a fleet, and the UAC intends to trap us!" has gone around to the farthest end, still facing a blocked channel, and at this time Fengyu no longer has any luck.

"So what do we do? Forcing a discrete disk? Stuart asked.

"Is it possible? How long does it take to fly out of a discrete disc at a normal speed? Years? Feng Yu was really a little speechless for this brainless suggestion.

Unable to fly at the speed of light, the thickness of 20 astronomical units of a discrete disk is a disaster for space travel. Only those safe passages that are free of celestial threats are suitable for curvature flights, crossing discrete disks at high speeds, and this is why there is a fairway. Otherwise, the universe extends in all directions, and as long as it is a regular voyage, it can go in any direction.

"We can go from the main channel into the discrete disk, go around the minefield, and then return to the main channel, I believe it will not take a few days." Stewart immediately realized his mistake and quickly corrected the plan.

Feng Yu still shook his head, "Didn't UAC think of this?" Since they want to block the shipping lane, they will inevitably set up observation points or reconnaissance satellites in the entire area around the shipping channel, and no matter where we come out, they will rush to the main channel to wait for us before they get the news in advance! Or even go around the front to surround us! ”

This is Fengyu's personal experience, when he was in the W1 star field, he was chased by UAC all the way and dodged into the discrete disk of the star field, and finally was ambushed by the other party, which led to the sinking of the MGAS-01 ship.

Thinking of those past events, although nearly three years have passed, there are still indelible scars in Fengyu's heart. This is also the reason why he has worked so hard in the past two or three years, only when he is strong can he have the ability to protect the people he cares about and cares about. It is precisely because of W1's injury that he is strong today, making him invincible in the HM03 star field as an ace pilot.

It's just that no matter how impressive Fengyu has achieved before, the current situation is that the "Tropical High Pressure" is blocked in the HM03 star field, and there is no way out......
