On the Skynet of the Southwest Federation, a headline has been swiped.

The Federation's interstellar flights in the southwest have been suspended since 11 a.m., all flights that left the port early this morning and did not enter the wormhole were required to return, and all starports were closed.

This also meant that all traffic from the Confederation to the Kyushu Confederation and the Rhine Confederation through the southwest was suspended. Those who want to get to the two great powers will have to take a short-haul flight within the alliance to the eastern part of the alliance, and from there they will take a long-range interstellar flight. But then, not only will it be delayed for many days, but whether you can buy a ferry ticket or not.

In this era, interstellar navigation has already made jaw-dropping progress after thousands of years of scientific and technological development. After completely abandoning the use of nuclear energy as the main power of starships and adopting cleaner and more efficient polymerized ion energy, the maximum speed of human starships between planets can reach 8,000 km/s, and even higher than 15,000 km/s in long-range interstellar voyages.

In recent years, with the further development of engine technology and energy technology, starship engine tests with a full power speed of 30,000 km/s have been frequently reported in the two starry sky powers of mankind.

In a small star system with a radius of 6 billion kilometers like the solar system, human spacecraft can complete a once-unreachable journey in two months even at the speed of the starship itself.

However, compared to the distances between galaxies that are often several light-years apart, or even tens or hundreds of light-years apart, the pace of human progress is still too slow.

For example, the Milky Way galaxy with a diameter of up to 200,000 light-years, even if humans increase the speed of their own ships to the speed of light, it will take 200,000 years to fly out of this vast river system.

Fortunately, human beings have made great strides to leave their home planet and enter the vast starry sky, and finally take root in the incomparably vast starry sky, and the most important discovery ----- wormhole.

The wormholes that have been discovered one after another are the most important resource for human beings to closely link galaxies that are often tens of light-years away.

Although the Southwest Federation can only be regarded as a medium-sized country in the Interstellar Human Alliance, its territory radius has reached hundreds of light-years.

Human beings use wormholes to communicate and transport people and materials, without which planets are just small islands in the ocean.

The establishment of the Southwest Federation in this star field is precisely because there are several wormholes that can pass through each other between the six star systems of the Federation, which can shorten the travel time between the various star systems of the Federation to 10 days to 1 month.

But if you want to go to several other human countries hundreds of light-years apart, even if there are wormholes, the time spent on the journey will be measured in months. For example, it takes up to 6 months to travel to the border galaxy of the Kyushu Federation, which is the most closely related and mainly Chinese, just to sail through the starry sky outside the wormhole.

The emergence of artificial wormholes, also known as the maturity of jump point technology, has pushed the long-distance navigation of human stars forward a big step, human beings no longer only rely on naturally formed wormholes to travel tens of billions of kilometers or even hundreds of billions of kilometers of long distances, once hundreds of light years away, relying on human technology, can also be reached.

It's just that it requires a huge energy consumption, and in addition to military starships, civilian starships will try to choose the discovered natural wormholes for long-distance interstellar voyages due to cost considerations, unless necessary.

The sudden closure of the starport by the Federation has undoubtedly increased the already long interstellar travel time and cost, naturally, the public resentment is boiling, coupled with the help of some people, the message under the federal government page on the Skynet has exceeded three billion terrible data in just half a day.

Comparatively speaking, at 2 p.m., the major news media published: "After verification, the starship "Hangzhou" crashed at 10 a.m. on Lafite due to an air piracy attack, and the number of casualties is unknown. The news, like a wave of the long river, was quickly submerged.

Although there are not many incidents of air piracy attacking civilian ships, especially incidents of being shot down by entire ships, compared with the major incident of the entire federal government suddenly announcing the closure of all starports in the two major star systems in the southwest, it may be that except for the relatives of the passengers on the "Hangzhou" who have searched for the "Hangzhou" news over and over again to follow up, the eyes of the rest of the federal people have long ignored this terrorist incident that may cause hundreds of casualties.

Because, that's more like, a signal for war.

The people of the Union, who have been at peace for a hundred years, do not desire war.

They didn't know that the Second Fleet, which was responsible for defending the "Kaiyang" galaxy in the southwest of the Federation, had already set off from its station two days ago and rushed to the third star field that the Federation and the Jeppon Empire used as a buffer zone.

It was the first campaign-level fleet sent to the Third Star Domain by the Federation since it was forced to sign the "Border Restraint Treaty" with the Jeppen Empire under the "mediation" of the delegation of the "Great Eagle Empire" a hundred years ago.

The second fleet of the Kaiyang Galaxy, named the second, is actually the strongest fleet in the two major galaxies in the southwest of the entire Federation. After receiving the news that the "Hangzhou" had been attacked and fallen by air pirates, the remaining two fleets had also canceled all the leave plans of officers and men and entered a state of combat readiness.

It can be said that 40 percent of the muscles of the Southwest Federation have been tensed, and they are ready to strike a punch that will cause the enemy to be heartbroken.

Of course, the fleet, which has already taken military action in advance, has proven that the eldest grandson Xueqing, who is the proud daughter of the sky, is not the core figure that is rolling the storm in the entire southwestern border galaxy of the Federation.

She just happened to be at the meeting, or rather, a federal bigwig who knew about it used the matter to get her involved in it.

In the confrontation between countries, a noble status like her is just a small ant, and if she is not careful, she will be crushed.

I'm afraid that those three air pirate gangs who have joined the pursuit of their prey with their own agendas will be collectively excited to know that a fleet of more than 2 starships, 6 heavy cruisers, 12 high-speed destroyers, and up to 30 ships of all sizes are heading for the third star field!

Not to mention the hundreds of energy cannons on the starship that can inflict terrifying attacks on planets, just the hundreds of military mechs and pilots of the Marine Corps in the fleet, which are as high as two infantry divisions, are the existence that can be considered high by thinking about it with their heels.

Not to mention Tang Lang, who accidentally broke into this future starry sky because he dug a "new" mine. He is like a small speck of dust, even if it really becomes dust in the next moment, perhaps except for the eldest grandson Xueqing, who is still sitting next to him, in his spare time, he will feel nostalgic that there was once a "barbarian" like a jungle tiger who single-handedly killed more than a dozen air thieves, and under this starry sky, he will not leave the slightest trace.

However, the little people also have the stubbornness of the little people. Tang Lang didn't want to leave any traces under the starry sky, but since he came, whoever wanted to kill him would have to pay the price, even if it was those who were high above?

The little people, who still don't know anything, chase me and run away on the Gobi of the planet, making it very lively.

In the dark starry sky, the huge fleet was galloping, and the lights of countless portholes drew brilliant bands of light, like sharp arrows with light.
