Bidding farewell to the F2 agricultural star, the "Tropical High Pressure" at this time is already a black household without a ship registration. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIn other words, they are now a smuggling ship or a pirate ship in the eyes of the authorities. If one day they want to restore their identity and return to New Asia, they only need to let the civilian spacecraft that replaced the identity of the "Tropical Pressure" go through the normal procedures to enter the F2 agricultural star, and Fengyu can go home openly.

HM03 is not far from the F2 field, only 6.9 light-years, and at the speed of the "Tropical High Pressure", it took less than a week to fly there, which is considered a short and medium-range in spaceflight, which is often measured in months.

The current aerospace is still a bottleneck that restricts human beings from further exploring space, speaking of which, Fengyu has entered the fifth year of joining the army, and the time he is really in a combat state is less than one-third, and most of the time is spent in the voyage.

A high-speed ship at 400 times the speed of light is already the limit of today's human spacecraft, and until the next generation of jump engines is developed, humans will have to continue to waste their lives on long voyages.

Half a century has passed since the second generation of the transition engine in use today, which was used in SC0052. Aside from some improvements in miniaturization and layout, the essence of how it works has not improved.

The new generation of jump engine must be in full swing in development, but the research and development progress of various countries is tight-lipped and there is no rumor from the outside world. The new generation of engines will certainly be used first in the military field, and whoever can seize this opportunity will inevitably overtake all countries at the entire strategic level, and even change the world pattern.

Unfortunately, HM03 happens to be the location of the UAC Federation's third-generation jump engine R&D center. The secrets hidden in this star field go far beyond the intelligence of the New African rebels.

HM03's sixth planet produces very rare transuranic elements. The so-called transuranic elements are the series of superheavy elements with atomic number greater than 92 and located after Mendeleev's periodic table of uranium. With the exception of a few stable island elements, the vast majority of transuranic elements are synthesized and have extremely short half-lives, essentially ceasing to exist shortly after they are manufactured.

However, just as the K field of New Asia is rich in the stable island element UBH-310, another stable island element from the sixth planet of HM03, FI-298. Fi, atomic number 114, is located in the seventh period of the Mendeleev periodic table in the p-block, group IVA, and is the first superheavy element to exhibit the properties of a noble gas.

The combination of inert gas and stabilizer island elements results in the strategically valuable FI-298.

As we all know, the second-generation curvature engine born in SC0013 is based on the use of the stability island element UBH-310, and the first and second generation of the subsequent jump engines are indispensable to UBH-310. The FI-298, as another element of the Stability Island, is undoubtedly useful for the jump engine.

And another common knowledge we know is that helium-3 is a noble gas as a fuel for controlled nuclear fusion. Inert gases are not prone to chemical reactions, so they are widely used in various industries. Although fi-298 is a carbon group element, it exhibits rare characteristics of an inert gas, so it has been considered a key material in the development of the third-generation jump engine.

It's just that the production of FI-298 is very scarce and cannot be obtained by synthetic means, so whoever owns FI-298 will occupy a leading position in the development of the third-generation jump engine.

HM03 was developed in SC0087 after the UAC Federation occupied the Cape of Good Hope, and it has only been fifteen years since then.

It's a pity that the New African Kingdom fell too early, sitting on the treasure mountain and not knowing it, and the rebels have limited vision, only knowing that the HM03 star field is important to the UAC, but they don't know the root cause why it is so important. So they recklessly sent Fengyu and Tropical High into a field that was considered more important by the UAC Federation than the habitable planet Cape of Good Hope.

Despite the fact that HM03 is only stationed with only one 6th fleet, in fact, there are more than 5 fleets stationed in each field within 6 light-years of the surrounding area. In the event of an attack on HM03, within 10 days these fleets will completely block all shipping lanes in and out of the field, even high-speed ships in optical stealth will not be able to escape.

Those who don't know are fearless, and the "Tropical High Pressure" finally came to the powder keg of HM03 star field under the confused arrangement of the rebels.

After passing through the Kuiper Belt, the internal distribution of this field is displayed on the monitoring screen of the "Tropical High Pressure". Around Planet 6, a mining space city and a civilian space city are located on L4 and L5, and there is also a semi-fortress as a base for the 6th Fleet located on L2 Lagrange Point, hiding in the shadow of Planet 6.

We know that each pair of celestial bodies will have 5 Lagrangian points, among which L4 and L5 at the vertices of the equilateral triangles on both wings are linearly stable, which is suitable for the construction of a space city. L1 to L3 are located on the central axis of the two celestial bodies, which require a certain amount of dynamic compensation to achieve stable conditions, and are usually not used to build space cities unless they are particularly needed.

Because of this, once the two Lagrangian points at L1 or L2 are put into use, they basically serve as military fortresses to defend the planet. And this, in turn, will prove the importance of the planet.

When he saw the half-fortress in the shadow of Planet 6 L2, Stewart felt a chill down his spine, "We've come to an amazing place!" What were Maxim guys and the rebels thinking? They want to kill us! ”

Although Fengyu had the experience of breaking into the UAC semi-fortress twice, the premise was that it was carried out under the cover of the fleet. If he really wanted to single-handedly kill a half-fortress from tens of thousands of kilometers away from space, the probability of success was basically zero.

In that respect alone, Planet 6 is a minefield. Aside from the sixth planet, there are indeed several space cities in this star field, but their value is not comparable to the few around the sixth planet.

Although Stewart doesn't know what secrets of UAC are hidden in the HM03 star field for the time being, he already has a very bad premonition. So without the slightest hesitation, he proposed to Fengyu to retreat.

It's a pity that Feng Yu doesn't trust him at all, "Since you're already here, if you don't leave something for the UAC and leave, wouldn't you want the rebels to underestimate the New Asian soldiers!" ”
