Chapter 268, Expedition to the Canis Major Galaxy
The "Sky City" space factory of Fuyun Group in outer space on Earth, this huge space factory that has been built for less than ten years is now gradually becoming a little outdated, and more huge space factories have sprung up in space, and any one of them is much larger than this space factory.
In a dock of the space factory, a huge spaceship with a length of more than 2,000 meters is gradually being perfected under the tireless work of countless mechanical arms, this oval saucer-shaped spaceship is an enlarged version of the somersault cloud series of anti-gravity spaceships.
The anti-gravity spaceship is a spaceship that has not been announced by Fuyun Group at present, so there is no doubt that this spaceship is a spaceship built by Fuyun Group itself, and it is not an order placed by the United Front of the Earth.
The mechanical arms are unusually busy, and in the void not far away, spaceships are dragging large parts to the dock, and the engineers use virtual machines to control the robotic arms to accurately install these parts on the spaceship, which is very fast.
The spaceships produced by Fuyun Group are the most sought-after products now, the spaceships with the best quality on the earth, and the spaceships that mine asteroids can only be produced by Fuyun Group, and even the space battleships and large spaceships produced by the Earth United Front are all guided by the scientists and engineers of Fuyun Group, and the core and key components are all purchased from Fuyun Group.
At this time, Li Fu was wearing a spacesuit and accompanied by Chen Bin, inspecting this spaceship, and the spaceship that could be specially inspected by Li Fu was naturally not an ordinary spaceship.
"Brother Fu, now that most of the spacecraft are almost completed, and the weapon system has been installed, it is estimated that it will be more than a month before we can leave for other galaxies, I hope our luck is good enough, and we can meet a life planet with a relatively low civilization level."
Chen Bin looked at the huge spaceship outside, the mechanical arm kept moving on the surface of the spaceship, and two huge red Chinese characters "Kyushu" appeared on the shell of the spaceship.
"Now we have explored all the space-time currents around the solar system, the Centauri Galaxy, the Canis Major Galaxy, the Canis Minora Galaxy, and the Aquila Galaxy, these five galaxies are all within 20 light-years of our solar system, and all have space-time currents connecting the solar system."
"We now have four options, and I don't think we'll be too lucky, and we'll always be able to find a galaxy that we'll be able to conquer soon."
Yu Liang has always been very optimistic, so he doesn't have any worries at this time.
"I'm worried about the time, even if we can reach other galaxies through the space-time current, but it will take at least a year to come and go, and we have to hurry."
Chen Bin shook his head, now the control of the earth united front over the entire earth is getting stronger and stronger, and the pressure on the side of the Fuyun Group is also increasing.
"Time is to hurry, as soon as the expeditionary army of the Earth United Front sets out, our side will immediately take action, and now the situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for us."
Li Fu, who had not spoken, also nodded, his eyes looked into the void farther away, where there was a very large space port, and in the space port, huge space warships were quietly moored.
"Huashan", "Hengshan", "Songshan" ....... one after another space warships at this time the hatch was wide open, and countless small spaceships, space fighters, and so on rose and fell on the huge space warships, carrying supplies and preparing for the upcoming expedition.
Gathering the power of the entire earth, the power of the earth's united front is unprecedentedly strong, and in just a few years, not only have many space warships in the original Huaxia plan been completed, but even more than a dozen space warships of the same level as the "Huashan" are being built at the same time.
The first batch of expeditionary forces of the Earth United Front consists of two huge fleets of the same class as the "Huashan", the "Huashan" and the "Alps", both of which are space warships with a length of more than 10 kilometers and a mass of 1 billion tons.
At the same time, each space battleship is equipped with 8 second-class "Songshan" and "Hengshan" one-level maintenance warships, adding up to a total of 9 large space warships in a battleship group, and the 2 battleship groups are an expeditionary force composed of 18 space warships.
In addition to the number of as many as 18 large space warships, the number of space fighters of the expeditionary army is as high as 1 million, such a huge number of space fighters, naturally Tang Yunshan and others saw that the earth space fighters completely destroyed the Lorne Empire space fighters, so these space fighters will take on the most important combat tasks in the future.
There are 18 large space warships, 1 million space fighters, and as many as 1.2 million people in the expeditionary force, of which 1 million are pilots of space fighters, and the remaining 200,000 people include soldiers, commanders, scientists, engineers, logistics personnel, and so on.
The scale of the expeditionary force is very huge, it is the most powerful military force on the earth now, and it is also the place where the ambition of the united front of the earth to colonize the interstellar universe is located.
The huge "Huashan" space battleship is like a huge beehive, and the space fighters are lined up in neat formations in the void and slowly fly into the various positions of the space fighters, and the spaceships drag huge supplies into the warehouse of the space battleship.
Vice Admiral Xue Yue, the commander of the battleship, looked at the beautiful earth in the void, the planet that exuded a charming halo seemed to be the most intoxicating place in the entire starry sky, and he actually looked at it in a daze.
His hands were clenched into fists, and the excitement in his heart was surging, and he was very excited at the thought that the army would soon be on an expedition to the Canis Majoris Galaxy.
Although he carried 2 stars on his shoulders, he had never really been on the battlefield, growing up in an era of peace, and the war he experienced was only the war during acting, and the only battlefield experience was the asteroid belt responsible for clearing the remaining space fighter group of the Lorne Empire, which was not a battle at all.
Although it is said that soldiers are used to guard peace, and it stands to reason that they should desire peace, but every soldier's heart is actually full of blood, and they all yearn for the war-torn era, because the times create heroes!
"I don't know if I can come back to the Canis Major Galaxy and take a look at this beautiful Earth."
Xue Yue muttered to himself, although he longed for war, he was also afraid of war in his heart, especially the expedition to another galaxy, what would happen in the future, no one had confidence.
At this time, the earth, the news media of all countries in the world began to carry out a variety of detailed reports on this expedition to the Canis Majoris galaxy, and the content of the propaganda was basically around the interstellar and cosmic colonization to publicize, with only one purpose, to encourage the enthusiasm of the earthlings for the age of space and exploration as much as possible.
"The news that this station has just learned from the Space Military Department of the Earth United Front that the space army for the counterattack on the Canis Major Galaxy has been prepared, and the two main space warships of Huashan and Alpine have also completed the supply of materials, and all the preparations have been completed, and they will officially set off on the 1st of next month, that is, on June 1, 2029, to embark on the journey of conquering the sea of stars."
"Nowadays, the population of the earth is increasing, resources are becoming more and more scarce, the great scientist Hawking who has passed away once predicted that the earthlings will either colonize the interstellar universe or perish, in the vast universe, there are endless galaxies, countless life planets, and the earth's age of exploration is coming."
Propaganda like this can be seen everywhere on the earth, and there are many reports about the universe and extraterrestrial civilizations, as well as movies, TV dramas, TV shows, and so on.
On the one hand, it is propaganda that the earth's resources are getting fewer and smaller, and the population is getting bigger and bigger, and it is necessary to find new ones, and on the other hand, it is to hype up the endless wealth that the Age of Exploration may bring, and at the same time compare the happy life of the colonists with the miserable life of the colonized in combination with the great voyages in the history of the earth.
There is no doubt that under all kinds of propaganda, from kindergarten children to the elderly, the whole earth is attracted by the beautiful propaganda pictures, and their enthusiasm for interstellar colonization is high, and everyone dreams of living a life like a colonist in the future.
Drinking delicious drinks produced by so-and-so planets, eating delicacies baked by so-and-so alien slaves, enjoying the wholehearted butler service of so-and-so aliens, and so on.
……
On June 1, 2029, in the outer space of the earth, in the huge space port, the pennant fluttered, and news media reporters from all over the world set up long guns and short cannons aimed at the huge space warships in the space port, and a team of soldiers in spacesuits floated into the space battleships in a neat line in the space port.
Countless girls are constantly cheering to bid farewell to their heroes, babbling children look at their father in a spacesuit, dreaming of wearing this robe of honor in the future; Elderly parents bid farewell to their children with tears in their eyes, knowing that after all these years, there may not be a time to see each other, war has always been cruel, and no matter how beautiful the propaganda is, it cannot hide its essence.
One by one, the space warships slowly left the space port, dragging a long tail flame and flying farther and farther in the void until they gradually disappeared from view.
