February 8, 2nd year of the new era.

After 39 days of interstellar voyage, the first detachment of the Mars expeditionary fleet finally completed a voyage of 240 million kilometers.

The 39-day voyage was long and painful.

Luo Feng helplessly looked at the latest information, the War Committee's Operational Information Office, and announced the situation in the area controlled by the Illuminati, the Judah Sanctuary, and the area controlled by the HRE Federation.

According to the intelligence information, it is one word to describe - miserable.

The lunar mass projector has carried out 38 waves of iron rain attacks on three regions, and it is now difficult to find an asteroid directly more than 5 meters in the spring-rain area, summer-summer solstice area, and summer-summer region of the asteroid belt.

It can be seen from this that Chu Bai is so frustrated.

"We didn't know there wasn't a mouthful of soup to drink." Fang Shengliang on the side said.

Luo Feng has no choice, the simple and crude weapon of kinetic energy weapons is estimated to be popular in the future, and it will become more and more powerful.

Unless the speed of the spaceship can exceed the strike speed of kinetic weapons, the War Council will not allow the battleship to engage the enemy in close combat.

For example, in this war, the lunar mass projector projected so many tungsten steel projectiles, and the cost was less than one-tenth of that of a Huo Quzhi.

Only a fool would fight a bayonet with a battleship, and it is estimated that their fleet can only go over to clean up the battlefield and clear the enemy of small targets.

Luo Feng threw away the other thoughts in his heart, picked up the internal communicator and ordered, "Prepare to land." ”

"Roger."

The place where they landed was the natural satellite of Mars, Phobos

The Phobos has a silhouette of 26.6 km/22.2 km/18.6 km and is shaped a bit like a potato. It is only about 6,000 kilometers above the surface of Mars, making it the closest natural satellite to the planet in the solar system.

Two or three of the five Kunpeng-class transport ships landed on Huobos, while two Kunpeng-class and three Huoqu-class ships landed on Huobos.

Seeing that all the spacecraft landed successfully, Luo Feng and Fang Shengliang worked together.

Luo Feng ordered Wang Gangsheng to quickly transform Deimos, and he commanded the transformation of Deimos.

Fang Shengliang commanded a provincial-level warship, first arranging a layer of Diting Exploration Satellite and a layer of Phoenix Satellite in the 100,000-kilometer orbit of Mars, and then launching 30 small landing ships (about 3 tons) to the Martian ground.

For the time being, the exploration of the Martian ground is only a preliminary understanding, and only after the enemies of the asteroid belt are cleared, the new humans will really go deep into Mars.

Now the focus is on transforming Phobos and Deimos.

Countless nanobots, under the control of the warriors, are tirelessly transforming these two natural satellites.

Luo Feng's fleet has the engineering construction plan and design drawings prepared in advance by the scientific committee, and these things are not difficult for the new human warriors.

Two large neutrino detectors, a nuclear power plant, and a spaceport were built at a rapid pace.

There is also a space factory that specializes in the production of satellites, space capsules, and mining spacecraft.

The next day, the second detachment of the Mars expeditionary fleet also successfully reached Mars, and the warships of the second detachment stayed in an orbit of 50,000 kilometers.

February 13th.

Two large neutrino probes have been completed, and the Martian defense circle has also been preliminarily completed.

Luo Feng looked at the two detachments that had finished replenishing, and immediately ordered: "All of them, the first detachment is responsible for clearing the asteroid belt near the Martian side, and the second detachment is responsible for clearing the asteroid belt near Jupiter." ”

"Roger."

The 10 Kunpeng-class ships did not follow the fleet, but stayed at Phobos and Deimos, and their mission was to build Mars into an advance base and logistics supply center for new humans, with Chief of Staff Fang Shengliang in charge of related work.

Without the mass projector to accelerate, the spaceship could only cruise at 20 kilometers per second, and they had to pay full attention to the astronomical conditions of the asteroid belt.

At present, they are still about 127 million kilometers away from the spring-rain area, and the danger of the asteroid belt comes from those asteroids, especially those with a diameter of less than 1 meter.

In fact, our common two-dimensional plane star map of the solar system looks like the asteroids in the asteroid belt are densely packed, but in fact this is a computer synthesis effect.

The real asteroid belt is not like that, the asteroid belt is not as crowded and dense as we think, but is exceptionally empty.

For the Mars expeditionary fleet, which has neutrino probes, their strategy is to avoid the big and eliminate the small.

Avoid asteroids that are directly more than 5 meters away, and for asteroids with a diameter of less than 5 meters in the shipping lane, use laser cannons to directly ablate and offset the particle flow with a strong magnetic field shield.

……

The other side.

Vasily, who was left with only the last supercomputing core, fell into despair.

[On March 24, 2018, the remaining LXY robots 1343, GL robots 217, and micro MSK spacecraft 23...... ］

Mark? Roland had been completely wiped out by the Iron Rain attack, and he died from the depletion of his spare body.

Under the continuous iron rain attack, the communication base stations, factories, and spaceships of the HRE Federation suffered heavy losses.

The various areas have been completely separated, and although it is possible to survive by means of a transfer of consciousness bodies, the problem is that there is now one less spare body.

Once the spare airframes within a few hundred kilometers of the surrounding area are exhausted, there is only a dead end waiting for the planes to be transferred.

And Mark? Roland suffered from this situation, and at the last moment he could not find a computer that could work, so he could only desperately accept the complete death of his consciousness.

Now the remnants of the HRE Federation are only Vasily and more than 1,500 robots.

[End of calculation, option 1...... ］

Vasily knew that option one was the only one that could survive.

He knew that the Iron Rain attack had just passed, and he had less than 23 hours left for him.

A small spaceship of about 7.1 tons was quickly transformed, and a fist-sized nano disk was loaded into a sphere using hundreds of layers of special materials, and then the sphere was stuffed into the spaceship.

Immediately, he arranged all the ships that could be used along the calculated orbit.

The modified spaceship immediately unfurled its light sails, and the other ships launched a final suicidal charge with hydrogen bombs.

The hydrogen bombs along the way continued to detonate, like little suns.

Ten minutes later, the Blue Star side also detected a change in the area controlled by the HRE Federation.

In the operational command hall of the new Moscow city on the moon, the data of the neutrino probe has just been fed back, which has attracted attention.

Chu Bai looked at the detonation position of a series of hydrogen bombs with obvious trajectories, and it was obvious that the HRE Federation was engaged in nuclear explosion and radiation propulsion.

"Supercomputing simulations show that a 7.1-ton spacecraft is being sent out of the solar system, with an estimated speed of 4,500 kilometers per second, or 1.5% of the speed of light." Lu Zhennan said with an ugly face.

Chu Bai thought calmly, according to the current speed and mass of the escape spacecraft, the payload carried on it is estimated that it will not exceed 10 kilograms.

As for escaping to a star system outside the solar system, even the nearest Proxima Centauri, at the speed of this spacecraft, will take 280 years to reach.

What's more, the direction of the other party's escape is not Proxima Centauri, and it is possible that the instruments and equipment of the spacecraft are completely scrapped and have not yet reached their destination.

"File this matter and report it!" Chu Bai said helplessly.

At the speed of light at 1.5%, now they have no way to intercept this ship in the vast universe.
