Outside the Proxima Centauri triad system, the "Sun Wu" fleet.

"Your Excellency, the trapped fleet has sent a reply explaining the situation in which they are trapped." Zhi Brain reported.

Wang Dingnan and Sun Jiaming then saw the content of the message displayed on the projection screen.

"Aeolus Empire Rescue Fleet: I don't know if you are related to Aeolus Technology, we are the Earth Eastern Space Fleet, and we have a good relationship with Aeolus Technology.

At present, there is no way to advance or retreat in this void, it has been half a month, I don't know where you are, how to rescue our fleet? ”

Wang Dingnan said: "Chief of Staff, what do you think? ”

Sun Jiaming thought for a while and said: "It seems that they have completely cut off contact with the country, the head of state did not give them the permission of the space-time quantum communicator, their own quantum communication cannot transmit such a long distance, and the radio signal will not reach the earth in a few years."

Therefore, they don't know about the establishment of the Aeolian Empire, which needs us to explain, and by the way, we also report the current situation of the earth, and then discuss how to save it. ”

Wang Dingnan nodded and said: "It's okay, let's make an intelligence briefing first, and then find a way to establish a closer information sharing channel with them, with the cooperation of scientists from both sides, we may be able to solve the mystery of their trapped and rescue them." ”

With the agreement between the two, on the one hand, the current situation of the earth, the establishment of the Fengshen Empire, and the rescue order issued by the head of state Li Chunfeng after they were found trapped, etc., all sent a message to the trapped fleet.

The trapped fleet exchanged telegrams many times before finally believing Wang Dingnan's explanation.

Subsequently, there were various exchanges and discussions between scientists from both sides.

Four days later, the Pathfinder spacecraft that were flying at the front suddenly slowed down and quickly stopped in the void as if they had lost power.

Wang Dingnan quickly saw the calculation results, because the "Pathfinder" aircraft did not have its own power to start, so its speed quickly dropped to zero.

In order to save energy, the engines of the trapped fleet are also in a state of flameout, and at this time they are also completely suspended in the void.

In fact, even if the engine was running at full power before, the speed was not much higher than 0, which was inconsistent with the information that Wang Dingnan had obtained before, and the speed dropped to 50 km/s, obviously the impact of that void on the spacecraft was getting stronger and stronger.

Therefore, when the trapped fleet contacted Wang Dingnan and them, they knew that the engine could not get rid of this void, so they simply turned off the engine and waited for scientists to crack the mystery before turning on the power again.

Now, the "Pathfinders" closest to the trapped fleet are all 18 AU away, and the other directions are far and near, but they are all above 18 AU.

At this time, the distribution of the "pathfinders" blocked in all directions shows that this strange sluggish void is large and irregular, and it lies entirely between Proxima Centauri and the solar system.

It's just that at such a long distance, it still takes a lot of time for radios to transmit some photo image information.

So Wang Dingnan ordered the fleet to cautiously move forward to a distance of 20 astronomical units from the trapped fleet, so as to maintain a certain safe distance and avoid the problem of changes in the mysterious area.

Fortunately, although the "Pathfinders" are trapped in the void, they are still working responsibly.

Soon, the two sides didn't know who suddenly mentioned the virtual world during the exchange, and asked if it was possible to communicate through the virtual world, so Wang Dingnan immediately reported to Li Chunfeng.

Li Chunfeng thought about it carefully, and felt that since the electromagnetic waves of this void could be transmitted normally, he could completely use a high-power transmitter.

The signal is sent to the trapped fleet and linked to the Chrono Quantum Communicator, allowing them to connect to the virtual world.

With this matter reached, the two sides can immediately discuss various solutions to the predicament face-to-face in the virtual world.

At this time, Wang Dingnan suddenly received instructions from Li Chunfeng, asking the trapped fleet to start the engine immediately, and at the same time provide photos and videos of the engine running at full power.

It turned out that after Li Chunfeng got the relevant information of the trapped fleet, after preliminary analysis, what he wanted to know most now was the situation of the engine.

After all, the engine of a life-class spaceship runs at full power, but it does not produce propulsion at all, which is completely different from the effect of a deceleration sine wave, and no deceleration stool wave can completely cancel out this propulsion.

When the videos and photos of the engines of the ten spacecraft running at full power were transmitted back to the Nanhe three-star system, Li Chunfeng devoted himself to researching them.

In order to figure out the situation, Li Chunfeng even used the exact same life-level spaceship in the fleet to operate at full power, and also took corresponding photos and videos.

Then Li Chunfeng began a comprehensive comparison and analysis, wanting to find out the reason for the disappearance of the driving force generated by the engine.

Through the comparison of these photos and videos, Li Chunfeng found that the tail of the spacecraft seemed to be different, but the photos could not be very clear, and it was obvious that there was a problem with the angle of the video.

Therefore, Li Chunfeng immediately informed Wang Dingnan and asked him to inform the person in charge of the fleet that he would contact the main control computer of the spacecraft.

Let Zhibrain send some maintenance robots to the corresponding engine parts, install shooting devices and some detection equipment, so as to feedback the detection results as soon as possible.

For example, the infrared situation, the ultraviolet situation, the X-ray situation, the current sine wave situation of the spacecraft, etc., before I didn't want to expose the main control computer can be directly connected with him, but now Li Chunfeng is in a hurry to study this problem, so he doesn't care very much about being known by these domestic elites.

Because Li Chunfeng has an intuition, as long as he studies the secret of the spaceship being trapped, then the grand unification theory that plagues him will be able to make a breakthrough.

More than ten days passed quickly.

The reconnaissance team sent by Wang Dingnan to the living planet, the "Guan Yu" small fleet, sent back shocking news.

That planet is not a so-called living planet. But near the equator, where the fleet had previously detected intelligent life, in orbit there, the small fleet was intercepted by a warship, but no armed conflict broke out between the two sides.

Because they both recognized each other's identities, the battleship was the "Ark" of the Heavenly Organization.

When the "Ark" faced the three giant ships, it also recognized the same shape as the original battleship of Fengshen Technology, and also had the logo of Fengshen Technology, but it seemed to have more stars in the background.

"This is the territory of the Noah Federation, please withdraw from the orbit of Noah immediately."

The "Ark" actually sent the corresponding announcement message first, and actually declared its sovereignty over this planet!

After Wang Dingnan saw this announcement, he couldn't help but smile coldly and said, "Just a light cruiser-level warship, you want to occupy the entire planet?"

Do they still think they are superpowers? What kind of Noah Federation was newly established? The Reconnaissance Fleet's Life Probes show that they have only a few hundred thousand people. ”

Sun Jiaming smiled and said, "I think it's more appropriate for them to be called 'Yelang Country'." Brother Dingnan, let's ask the head of state for this matter, right? ”

Wang Dingnan nodded and said, "Yes." Smart brain, please contact the Führer! ”

As the commander of the rescue fleet, he has the right to speak directly to the Führer.

Li Chunfeng was studying the mysteries of the mysterious void with all his might at this time, when he was suddenly reminded by the No. 1 intelligence to go to Proxima Centauri's rescue fleet commander Wang Dingnan to ask for a call.

Li Chunfeng was a little surprised, and soon appeared in the command cabin of the "Sun Wu" battleship in the form of a 3D holographic projection through the space-time quantum communicator.

"Hello Führer!" Wang Dingnan and Sun Jiaming saw that the communication was connected, and Li Chunfeng's projection appeared, and immediately saluted and greeted at the same time.

"What's wrong?" Li Chunfeng asked.

Wang Dingnan immediately reported the situation of the planet in Proxima Centauri, and then asked, "Now I ask the Führer to give instructions on the next move." ”

The "Pathfinder" who followed through the Star Gate was no longer heard from, and Li Chunfeng thought that something should have happened when he passed through the Star Gate, but he didn't expect the Heaven Organization to run here safely.

Although this planet is not a living planet, preliminary detection results show that its temperature has reached the temperature suitable for human habitation, but it lacks water and atmosphere, otherwise it is definitely a good living planet.

If you enter the fourth-level civilization, with some technological advances, you may be able to transform this planet and make it a habitable planet for humans.

In this way, he should also occupy this planet, in case he has not found a life planet for a long time, and he has not left the vicinity of the solar system, maybe he can also transform this planet for his own use.

Besides, there is still a festival between himself and the Heaven Organization, and it is already for the sake of the same earthlings that I didn't settle accounts with them.

Just as he was thinking this, Wang Dingnan received further resource reports from the reconnaissance fleet, and immediately conveyed to Li Chunfeng: "Führer, our probe has found that there is a large amount of ilmenite on this planet that is easy to mine!" ”

Li Chunfeng couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised: "Really? This is the planet we must have! ”

Nowadays, the ternary alloy used in a large number of new generation warships, among which the element used in a large amount is titanium, although the Nanhe three-star system also has it, but compared with the needs of building their own warships, the more the better.

Well, this planet is named "Titanium Star".

At that moment, he commanded: "Send them the following notice: This is the fleet of the Anemo God Empire, and everywhere it goes is the territory of the Empire.

Considering that you are also a human on Earth, you are allowed to grant the Noah Federation the right to temporarily establish a foothold on Titanium Star, but the scope and time of occupation need to be approved by the Imperial Senate.

If we dare to go against the will of the Empire, we don't mind destroying the nascent Noah Federation! ”

When Wang Dingnan heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little excited, and he was relieved when he heard this! I think that at the beginning, we were always pointed at by these Westerners, saying that the truth was only within the range of the cannon, and now it is our turn to say this.

Hurriedly and happily responded: "Yes, I promise to complete the task." I immediately sent the Interstellar Marine Corps and some scientists to land on Titanium Star in order to further understand the situation and provide a basis for the decision of the Führer and the Imperial Senate. ”

"Good, so be it. As I said at the founding ceremony, wherever the fleet goes, it is the territory of our empire, and you, as the commander of the expeditionary fleet, must know how to act cheaply for the sake of the empire. Li Chunfeng then explained a few words, and then ended the communication.

After Li Chunfeng's image disappeared, Sun Jiaming sighed with emotion: "Brother Dingnan, it seems that we are too conservative, and the head of state is a little dissatisfied. ”

Wang Dingnan nodded and said, "Yes, we don't need to be polite to them." If you're not convinced, then it's better to fight. ”

At that moment, the two informed the Interstellar Marine Corps and the team of scientists, and the entire fleet immediately became busy, and the people of the General Observation Group were originally a little bored to stay here to watch the rescue, but now they immediately asked to accompany them to Titanium Star.

Wang Dingnan thought about it for a while, and simply appointed Chen Qingquan, a command specialist, and Xie Zhongming, a staff officer, as the commander of the detachment, and took the "Zhao Yun" as the flagship to lead a total of 10 general-class and 10 city-class ships to Titanium Star.

As for the "Guan Yu" reconnaissance fleet in the orbit of the titanium star, it has already issued a notice to the other party, and at the same time, it has also vigilantly pointed the muzzles of its main guns at the "Ark".
