Three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the development of the earth in these three years can be said to be rapid with each passing day, with new technologies appearing almost every month, and then entering the practical stage at a very rapid pace. In the past, this situation was simply impossible, and those who have read "Capital" know that the essence of capital is to pursue profits, and in the case of a technology transformed into capital and failed to complete the capital squeezing, even if there is a better and more advanced technology, the capitalist is willing to lock it in a safe in order to maximize profits.

And now, as the entire Earth civilization is facing the invasion of alien civilizations, this qiē has been broken. With the country as the main body, the speed of science and technology promotion is becoming faster and faster, and more importantly, some of the technology obtained from the Pluto base has gradually been cracked and digested by the scientific researchers of the earth, which has further increased the speed of development.

The old chief, who had always supported Su Yichen, finally stepped down a year and a half ago, and the new chief took over the old chief's position, but this did not affect the scientific research institutions. The old chief made proper arrangements in advance to split the 781 center, and the 781 center after the split was much smaller on the surface, and also lost the original headquarters in Jingbei, but in fact, after the northwest base of the 781 center was separated from the headquarters, the entire core part of scientific research maintained a kind of streamlining and high efficiency, and the northwest base is currently directly under the military, and its independence has also been guaranteed.

This was completed before the old chief retreated to the second line, and the replacement of the new and old leaders did not have any impact on the northwest base. The new head continues to support the research work of the Northwest Base, and at the same time provides many facilities for him through the scientific research department of the Guò Earth Alliance headquarters.

In the past three years, Su Yichen has returned to the Pluto base, and with the commissioning of another newly built spacecraft, the controllable thermonuclear fusion engine of the Vanguard spacecraft has been improved again, and it only takes about 120 days to travel to and from the Pluto base, which cannot but be said to be a great breakthrough compared to before.

According to Su Yichen's optimistic estimate, it will take at least 20 to 30 years to truly master the curvature technology and make it used in spacecraft, and this is still a case, if some engine technologies cannot be solved in the middle, then it will probably take a few more years to complete the curvature research.

Curvature technology is a sign that represents the cosmic civilization soaring into space and truly stepping out of the home star, but from the current situation, the Gaia civilization's monitoring of the earth civilization has been in existence, and the meteorite has not been found, which means that the Gaia civilization has not recovered it.

In this regard, Su Yichen sent a letter to the chief of the Northwest Base, and at the same time reminded the Earth Alliance and the Earth Space Fleet that while concentrating on the development of curvature technology, Su Yichen should invest more scientific and technological forces in offensive weapons and improving the survivability of spaceships.

The reason is simple, this is mainly due to the threat of Gaian civilization. In a period of time, it will not be able to reach the point of complete confrontation with the other side, at least the earth civilization must hold a "weapon" that can also give the other side a blow, to use a simple example, just like the United States and North Korea on the earth back then, the small North Korea cannot be compared with the United States as a superpower in terms of economy, military, land, and population, but the United States has no way to take North Korea. Because North Korea has a "big killer weapon" in its hands that can be killed together, once it is provoked, North Korea, which is barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, throws the "big killer weapon" out, let alone the United States, I am afraid that no country in the world can stand it, to use an idiom to describe it, this is a rat trap.

And now, the Earth Space Fleet wants to do exactly this, not to seek the power to compete with the other party, but only to the ability to die with the other party. This seems tragic, but it is actually a kind of sorrow, and it is also the only way for the current civilization on earth.

At present, the Earth Space Fleet has 22 space warships, which is two more than the plan three years ago, and due to the continuous development of various technologies and the maturity of the technology to build spacecraft, the entire plan was completed almost a year ahead of schedule.

Not only that, but at present, the Earth Space Fleet continues to build space warships, and countries are also putting most of their energy into it. With the increasing strength of the Earth Space Fleet, the status of the Earth Alliance organization is also getting higher and higher, and now there is the view that the Earth Alliance organization will completely replace the United Nations, and even form a truly unified Earth Alliance with it as the main body. But this may sound like a good idea, but it is basically impossible to implement, global integration has been achieved for so long, but today there are still many contradictions between countries and regions, and a whole earth alliance may happen in the future, but it will take time and opportunity.

Mike. General Carson is inspecting a space warship that has just joined the Earth Space Fleet, this is a warship provided by Japan, the name of the battleship is "Fengxiang", this name once appeared in the history of World War II, it is the name of a Japanese aircraft carrier, and the Japanese side also has some thoughts about using this name here.

However, this is not for Mike. General Carson is nothing, as long as this battleship is not called "Yamato", it is completely OK, as a manufacturing country, the Japanese have the right to name the battleship, which is written in the regulations of the United Earth Fleet, what interests him is that this Fengxiang space battleship has a somewhat unique shape, and the previous warships of various countries are different, the Japanese warship uses the shape of a large disc, it looks like a huge flying saucer, the sense of science and technology is very strong, in addition to the equipment and weapons it carries are also the most advanced, according to the plan that has been made for a long time, The Fengxiang will join the Third Space Squadron under the command of Vice Admiral Ji Jing, the commander of the squadron.

"General!"

Mark, a former American astronaut in a colonel's uniform, yelled at Mike. General Carson and Vice Admiral Ji Jing saluted, Mark was the captain of the battleship, and today was the day he took his men to receive it.

"Rest, Colonel, how do your gadgets feel?" Mike. General Carson asked with a smile, and Lieutenant General Ji Jing, who was standing beside him, looked at this subordinate with the same smile.

"I can't help but say that the Japanese have a very good set, and its performance is somewhat unexpected to me, but I don't know exactly what it is in space." Mark replied bluntly.

"Don't worry, Colonel, according to the number provided by the Japanese side, this battleship is still good, but the specific situation still needs you and your subordinates to actually feel it." Vice Admiral Ji Jing smiled and pointed to the battleship not far from them, and then asked Mark if he was ready.

"One qiē ready, please order!" Mark replied aloud.

Lieutenant General Ji Jing glanced at Mike. General Carson, Mike. General Carson nodded at him slightly, as the commander of the Third Universe Fleet, the order for the Fengxiang to set sail was directly given by Vice Admiral Ji Jing. Soon, he gave the order to set sail, and then he met with Mike. General Carson left the field together and headed to the command center not far away.

An hour later, the ready Fengxiang sent a message to the command center requesting to set sail, and after getting the reply that the command center allowed it to set sail, the huge Fengxiang began to roar like a helicopter, and then a condensed cloud of smoke and dust slowly erupted around and below it, and then the Fengxiang slowly rose, and the bottom sprayed a strong air current, and its middle body began to rotate counterclockwise, the air flow became larger and larger, the smoke and dust became more and more extensive, and the Fengxiang broke free from the earth's gravity and gravity with an unstoppable attitude, The lift-off velocity increases dramatically.

10 meters, 20 meters, 100 meters, 200 meters, 1000 meters, 2000 meters, .......

When the Fengxiang rose to a distance of 5,000 meters, the controllable thermonuclear fusion engine began to accelerate, and the spacecraft was like a flying saucer in a science fiction movie with a very graceful posture in a high arc, flying higher and higher, and soon it was invisible to the naked eye.

"Fengxiang passed through the troposphere and has reached the stratosphere...... It has already passed through the stratosphere, and Feng Xiang is located in the middle layer, and is flying towards the current layer ....... ”

The personnel of the command center constantly reported the situation of the Fengxiang, and when the Fengxiang arrived at the current layer, Lieutenant General Ji Jing watched the monitoring intently, until he flew out of the current layer to the outer layer and headed towards the earth's near-earth space orbit, Lieutenant General Ji Jing breathed a sigh of relief.

"Command center, command center! Fengxiang is normal! ”

When Feng Xiang came to the earth's near-earth space orbit, the command center transmitted the information of the Feng Xiang. General Carson and Lieutenant General Ji Jing looked at each other and smiled at the same time, at least the Japanese spacecraft has no problems at present, and the next is the first trial voyage of the Fengxiang, Mark and his crew will drive the Fengxiang to the Martian base, and then return to Earth, on the one hand, it is the route arrangement of the trial, and on the other hand, it is also to transport a batch of materials back from the Martian collection base by the way.

A few days later, there were still no problems with the Fengxiang's first voyage, and it seemed that the battleship had almost completed the sea trial, and when it returned, it could be directly incorporated into the sequence of the Third Squadron as an official warship, and become a real member of the Earth Space Fleet.

And just 10 days after the trial voyage of the Fengxiang, when everyone thought that a qiē shun lì was going on, a message was suddenly received in the special observation station of the Earth Space Fleet headquarters, and when this information positioning suddenly appeared, the staff on duty was stunned at first, and then rubbed their eyes, and when it was confirmed that it was not a hallucination, their faces suddenly changed, and they hurriedly pressed the emergency alarm button.
