The end of 853 to the beginning of 854 was a war year for the Federation, and it was also a year for the controllers to work overtime.

1. The war on Saturn continues. Someone has become a monolith that the commanders at the top of the Federation can't get around. In the outer space orbit of Saturn, the fleet has been maintained for many years, and the color of titanium steel shimmers in space.

2. After the victory of the Pillar War in 853, the Frontier War on the Carbon Star entered the pioneering period, and the Star Guides and Assault Troop Regiments began to explore other areas of the star catalog. In order to provide strategic support to the surface of the carbon star, the warship cluster of the magnetostar is also frequently dispatched.

3. The new situation on the ice star has again attracted the attention of the upper echelons of the Federation. The Federation launched a small high-speed detector in an attempt to detect it, but the unmanned high-speed vehicle was intercepted when it burst into the planet's three-light-second range, and was destroyed by a dense barrage of kinetic energy at a distance of 0.3 light-seconds.

Although the ice star belongs to the edge of the solar system, it is also the edge of federal control. However, it does not mean that the Federation allows other forces that can step out of the stars to oppose themselves. The Federation has not encountered such a provocation on a single major planet for more than three hundred years. So the order was given by the supreme ruling group - the fleet was allocated.

From the Halo star, which included twenty-four battleships, one hundred and twenty-seven cruisers. and a wide variety of large and small supply ships departing.

Engineering warships began to land on nearby comets, and cut holes to drop nuclear bombs inside, which was to use the power of nuclear explosions to make the comet eject matter, change orbit, and bomb ice stars.

From this, it can be seen that the Federation's space fleet is using force in three directions at once! But what is behind this majesty?

……

February 854 in the cosmic calendar. The fleet of the expedition to the White Ice Planet has already traveled out of the orbit of the Halo Star and is on standby near a space supply station in the outer area, the seventh orbit.

On a long voyage, there is naturally some entertainment.

In the virtual communication, the controllers are training each other in a half-competitive and half-game manner, and the laser cannons are turned up to the lowest power to fire at each other.

When the laser hits another controller's ship for ten seconds, that controller becomes your own, and the more you convert, the more points you get, and once you are converted by your opponent, your score is halved.

In this way, warships frolicked in space at intervals of light seconds. This is probably the most expensive women's sport with the equipment. Of course, this is only for the controller, as it is extremely difficult for each ship to hit a teammate who is dodging a few light-seconds away.

Any temperature difference on the ship, resulting in a problem with the shrinkage of the ship, will affect the aiming and locking of the weapon platform. During the expedition, whether the mushrooms took good care of their warships can be seen from the results of the competition.

In the era of the star catalog, the women's beach volleyball match became a space women's volleyball match.

Just when these controller girls were in full swing competing with each other, three astronomical units in the rear, a communication request from the Sky Knight team, was suspended.

In the virtual space of the imitation star sea, a high-level controller whistled (the battleship sent relevant information), signaling the cool guys to be quiet and ladylike.

[A thousand years ago, it was the men's expedition, the barracks were the men's society, and the women visited, which was the welfare of the barracks, and now the expeditionary fleet is the women's society, so, in this era, to a certain extent, this is the other way around. 】

In fact, this is also related to the current situation.

Fifteen years ago, space was much more peaceful, and at most there was more frequent fighting on the Fire Star. The various fleets ran over and took turns fighting. On the eve of the end of the Fire Star War, the theater commander on the Fire Star even said, "After this battle, go home and get married!" ”

However, in fact, after the end of the Fire Star War, the controllers found that they were several times busier than they were, for some reason.

Saturn, Carbon Star, and now the Ice Star Expedition.

War is the most painful, and the war before the cosmic calendar often involves men killed, wounded and disabled, and women widowed. And now the women are in control of the space battleship. I don't know who it is, so like to make trouble, so that the elite women of the Federation have been floating on the planet's orbit all year round, or are they guarding life. The number of new marriages among the controllers has fallen to the lowest in 200 years in the past decade. This has created a lot of negativity at the top of the Federation.

For example, a few years ago, Su Tianji and Rong Jixuan's wedding of the century made the entire circle of controllers fill the circle with a sour atmosphere while congratulating.

The controllers hate to marry, but what about the Sky Knights?

Culture and technology have allowed the Celestial Knights to become more and more free.

Reason 1: The emergence of a new generation such as Zhukong Jie represents the rapid progress of various technologies related to human reproduction. The Knight is free to select eggs from the maternal line with high-quality genes. By surrogacy for the poor girl they like, the Heavenly Knight can ensure that their offspring are genetically stable, and the girl they like becomes their wife in social relationships, as well as the mother of their children's social relationships.

Reason 2: In contemporary times, the social form has undergone major changes, and a large number of middle- and upper-class girls have nowhere to follow in the social transformation and are more eager to rely on. (As for the men of the same class, they all pick up star five: follow me.) For example, those well-known singers, Chu Chu is pitiful, which is more competitive. There are quite a few of the contemporary Heavenly Knights, who secretly combine with these girls.

……

Mammals, and even primates as a whole, are genetically rarely monogamous. Monogamy is emphasized only by the needs of industrial society. Before the era of civilization, men were basically "scumbags".

Genetically, there are "many males", because only by urgently possessing more females can we increase the probability of their genes reproducing.

In the same way, women's Chongqiang is also a genetic residue. They are only related to one male in terms of reproduction, so they will definitely solemnly choose the best male to increase the probability of their genes.

And the existing human beings are all selected in this way, so their nature is always inclined.

……

Although the contemporary Heavenly Knight did not break the monogamy, when choosing women, they made a choice that could satisfy their male dominance desires.

And the love of the controllers is still affected by the principle of 'choosing the strong', so in the matter of marrying, they would rather be single than compromised.

This is the strange story of the day: the Celestial Knight uses eggs (from the federal gene pool) of high-quality female genes to reproduce offspring, and falls in love with more gentle girls.

When this tendency persists and normalizes, the future man and woman complete unequal marriages. Monogamy is difficult to maintain, after all, the loyalty of the Heavenly Knight to love is now behind the controller's naval guns.

Due to the current incompatibility between male and female circles, the controllers are not aware of this situation, and they still feel that if they are single, the Sky Knight should also be single. But sooner or later, paper will not be able to contain the fire.

The top level of the Federation is now frequently dispatching the Heavenly Knights, not just for operational reasons, but to prepare to match the two to ease the resentment caused by the overwork of the fleet faction in the past few years!

……

As the saying goes: do not suffer from few, but suffer from inequality. But in fact, the superiors are always uneven because of their numbers.

The Supreme Commander of the Expeditionary Force, the heroic commander of Lan Tao Xingxi, after confirming that the Heavenly Knights were about to arrive, appointed his niece Lan Taolei to talk to the Heavenly Knights.

When Lan Tao Xingxi's order was given, the fleet's public channel was silent for a few seconds.

Men are dissatisfied and always like to hammer things and shout out, while women are dissatisfied and are more subtle. - So this quiet in communication is actually resentment.

But in fact, after Lan Taolei connected with Rong Jiying's communication, she was intimidated by her overly strong aura, and she was very passive throughout the conversation. It's basically about to become a debriefing role. In fact, this is also the young high-ranking heavenly knight, who is too focused on wartime problems.

In the 21st century, the most common situation for men to ignore their girlfriends is in games, because there are always teammates in the game who command and cooperate with each other, so the anger expressed by the girlfriend's communication is deceptively ignored. This is the gene of war selection.

In the fierce and tense collaboration, it doesn't matter which woman is talking behind the scenes. This kind of character is not a good man in the eyes of women, but a good brother in the eyes of men. As for the ancient times, there was a group of good brothers who could fight, hack other sissies, and women and so on could be snatched up. So, the brothers who forgot about their girlfriends in the cooperative game, their fathers are all such mellow men!

Rong Jiying asked with a scowl in his face, "What is the current state of the fleet?" ......""How many times is there for the next stage of the fairway?" ......""The coordinates of the first bombed comets, as well as the speed, angle, bearing! ……”

Seeing it, Lan Taolei couldn't hold Rong Jixuan at all. Lan Tao Xingxi could only talk to this heroic celestial knight in person in the communication.

in a virtual space.

Lan Taoxing, who had long purple hair, looked at Rong Jiying on the interface: "I am the commander of the Ice Star Expeditionary Force. ”

After a few minutes of delay, Rong Jiying saluted solemnly: "I am the leader of the Haiyan Heavenly Knight Squadron, and I request to participate in the battlefield control. ”

Lan Tao Xingxi: "The fleet is still seven astronomical units away from the Ice Star. For the time being, there is no need for the support of the Heavenly Knights, please stand by in Baihong Harbor and stay in the best condition. ”

Rong Jiying's face changed when she heard this, but she still didn't give up and explained: "Then sir, please look here." His finger pointed to the star chart.

At this time, on the star map, a white line originates from the ice star, and this line represents the shipping channel, and at the end of the channel is a group of "debris" clusters, which are debris compared to the planet, but this is a large number of space fleets. (Hui, who was teased by Jun Xingxing, has already evacuated on this battleship.) ）

Rong Jiying believes that this is most likely the fleet of the Temple Sect trying to escape. And he also believes that in the process of escaping, the temple faction will most likely transfer Junjiexing (No. 2) and take it away.

After coming into contact with Jun Jiexing a few months ago, Rong Jiying was determined: In order for Jun Jiexing, a genius with full personality, to truly stand on the Federation's Saturn strategy, he must get enough bargaining chips for dialogue, rather than empty and unfounded orders!

Therefore, Rong Jiying has a great sense of mission in this expeditionary operation.

Rong Jiying: "I ask for pursuit." ”

Lan Tao Xingxi: "Rejected." ”

Rong Jiying's unhappy look was already overflowing: "Why? ”

Lan Tao Xingxi: "The situation in the star region is complicated, and the gods may have high-energy bodies hidden in this area. ”

The first time that Saturn encountered a space high-energy body in this generation was in the last year of the Electric Calendar, the Battle of the Gods, the kind of thing hidden in the asteroid that suddenly became energized, if it suddenly appeared, it would be a great threat to the Sky Knight. As a steady commander, Lan Tao Xingxi will not condone Rong Jiying's momentary mood, and pursue the fleet before the battlefield risk is cleared.

Rong Jiying propped up the table with both hands and denied: "Sir, you are delaying the fighter." ”

Lan Tao Xingxi's eyes were stern, and he pushed back: "General Rong Jiying, I am the person in charge of this military operation, and you are not qualified to question my command." Military goals are not something that can be accomplished by wishful thinking. Your overly hasty motives are easy for the enemy to exploit. I won't allow you to go deep and go on your adventure alone. Please keep in mind that the first task of this operation is to clear the resistance on the ice star. ”

After saying that, he hung up the phone. After the communication ended, the hero controller switched back to the public channel, glanced at the many controllers in the starry sky space, blinked, and said coldly: "The game continues!" The top 10 losers, this week, are in charge of perimeter patrols. ”

……

Four astronomical units in the rear, a large transport carrier with a length of seventeen kilometers drifted quietly in starry space. It is escorted by several patrol fleets around it.

This mothership does not have all the functions of a star carrier, although it has high-speed fighters in storage, and it can also allow the Celestial Knights on the fleet to launch an attack at any time. But this massive battleship can't recover the high-speed battleship of the Sky Knight.

Ensure the conditions for the take-off and landing of the Celestial Knights: 1. The fleet occupies and controls the outer orbit of the large planet; 2. The commander controls the star catalog, and no ballistic missile can hit the outer orbit.

Under such conditions, the engineering ship is in the vicinity of the gravitational field of the ring planet, like a spiral arrangement, deploying tens of thousands of magnetic deceleration rings, so that the powerful kinetic energy attenuation of the Sky Knight when he lands.

And the mothership where Rong Jiying is now can only ensure that this Heavenly Knight team will impact once, and after this impact, it will have to return to the nearest Halo Star and land. And it takes at least twenty hours to take off from Halo.

In the drum bionic gravity zone, Rong Jiying, who was rejected, slammed open the holographic cabin.

The intelligent android outside the communication warehouse stepped forward: "Your Excellency, the commander-in-chief didn't agree to your proposal to attack?" ”

Rong Jiying looked at his exclusive artificial intelligence in front of him, Shuyue, restrained his irritable emotions and said calmly: "The commander-in-chief's plan is inconsistent with mine. ”

This feminine artificial intelligence did not say anything, but silently put away a series of preparatory steps for Rong Jiying's impact battle.

Rong Jiying strolled through the command hall and passed through the information light curtains. And at this time, there was a communication from the Earth Star in the rear.

He glanced at the name of the communicator: Casting Kongjie. and her application, stunned.

Then he raised his head and ordered Shuyue who was following behind him, "Connect me to the Earth Star communication, I want to talk to her." ”

Akezuki saluted as a noble maid, and then prepared a communication facility for him.

On the outer layer of the mothership, hundreds of floating cannon-like radars, released from the hull, then unfolded like a chess re-swing, a wide array aimed at Saturn.

Radio signals, ping pong back and forth in space

The Celestial Knight and the young commander of the Native faction sent each other eight video conversations - all about someone.
