The Frost Seeker sailed away from Moskva, but did not take all of its personnel with it. Li De specially selected some soldiers to stay on the planet to maintain and continue to build underground bases, and also to start transforming the planet's environment.

At least build a plant house first, so that the food supply can be guaranteed in the future, and at the same time, you can also produce some oxygen for the planet little by little.

Of course, who to let stay with Li De is also specially chosen. Those who are not very attentive to staying in the independent regiment are naturally the first choice, so let them stay here and clear the wasteland.

As the original Federal Mine, Moskiv also has rudimentary communication equipment. Li De did not let go of this opportunity to reuse garbage. He built an interstellar communication satellite for Moskiv to collect some federal intelligence. Although the information that can be intercepted is limited, it is better than nothing for them with black eyes.

For example, on the day he left Moskiv, Li De received the news that the Third Fleet of the Federation had set sail.

The Third Fleet is the largest fleet within the Federation after the Seventh Fleet. Originally, the Third Fleet had been tasked with guarding the Federation's major sectors. Now the sudden transfer is really not a small goal. At present, the Seventh Fleet can be targeted, except for the Zerg and the Purdo, that is, they are the New Zealand.

"Do you think it's possible?" Li De asked Roy, who came with information.

Roy shook his head and said, "I'm only responsible for gathering intelligence. As for the analysis, I don't want my personal judgment to affect the objectivity of the intelligence. ”

A smile crossed the corner of Li De's mouth and said, "Cunning! ”

Roy spread his hands helplessly.

"Call Vivi. Let's break it down! ”

"Yes!"

Two minutes later, Xue Weiwei also came to Li De's captain's room. Normally, when the ship is sailing, as long as there are no major sailing events, he will rest in the captain's room.

Roy told Xue Weiwei a considerable amount of information, and then Li De asked, "What do you think?" Is it possible that the Federation's action is aimed at us? ”

Xue Weiwei frowned slightly. I thought about it for a moment. Her behavior was very similar to Karin when she was thinking, and Li De was a little drunk.

Roy is also the one who has seen Karin, and he also sighs that Vivi and Karin are so similar.

"I think their target should be Xinhuaguo." Vivi said categorically.

"Oh? Why? ”

"Because now it's worth it for them to do this, and that's the only one who can do it."

"It can't be the Purdo?" Roy asked.

"If it is a Puldo, then the Seventh Fleet and the First Fleet, which are closest to the theater of operations, will be enough. Moreover, the Federation has been fighting with Puldo for many years, and now the war has been relatively relaxed, and there is no need to mobilize a large-scale fleet to fight. ”

"What about the Zerg?"

"It's also unlikely. There is no sign of a Zerg invasion in the Federation's major mining and colony planets. And after the previous Kent Star incident, a series of retaliatory military operations by the Federation did not achieve good results. If they use the Third Fleet to attack the Zerg, it can only be said that the Federation has abandoned the Keane family. ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Because the Keanes' most elite fleet is the Third Fleet. Without the Third Fleet, the Keanes would have less than half of their voice within the Federation. ”

Li De saw that Wei Wei answered Roy's question fluently, and couldn't help but admire it secretly in his heart. Although it was only a short period of time, Vivi's analysis of the current situation was already in place, and it was no wonder that she was able to make accurate and effective tactics. This requires a grasp of the overall situation.

"I think we need to talk to someone!" "The Frost is already on its way back to Dresser, and we can contact Descartes, who should be on the Union side." ”

"Master," Eva's voice came in an electronic voice. In the eyes of others, Eva is an intelligent system on the Frost Seeker. "Attempts have been made, but Descartes and Clark have not been contacted, and they should have cut off contact with the outside world in order to hide their identities."

"What about Xinhuaguo? You can contact the Legion Commander or ......"

"General Wang Hu can be contacted. Commander Deng Wenbin. Eva replied.

"Pick me up Wang Hu." Li De thought about it for a moment and said. Deng Wenbin was the commander-in-chief of the First Army. Deng Zhiguo's father, but Wang Hu seems to have a higher status in Xinhua.

In less than a minute, Wang Hu answered the phone. Li De told Wang Hu the information he had gotten.

Wang Hu is most concerned about the situation of his two precious granddaughters. Li De also reported the situation of the Wang sisters again.

This time, Wang Haorou undoubtedly worked the hardest. Wang Haoting's breakthrough inspired Wang Haorou's fighting spirit, and she mustered all her strength to break through as soon as possible and reach the same level as her sister. But more than a month of hard cultivation failed to achieve her goal. Wang Haorou couldn't help but be a little anxious. Occasionally, from the monitor, Li De could see Wang Haorou's eyes with a sense of loss.

Wang Hu also sighed after learning about it. He knows the personalities of his two granddaughters best, Wang Haorou belongs to the type who doesn't admit defeat in anything, and her personality is also introverted, and she generally doesn't expose her weak side in front of others. And in terms of talent. Originally, the two sisters were also equal, and Wang Haoting's breakthrough was also a potential inspired by the edge of life and death, if Wang Haorou was allowed to experience the same time, it might not have the same effect.

"As for a possible attack by the Third Fleet and the Federation, I don't think you can worry about it. We've set up sentry posts near the jumps, so if a large fleet wants to step over, we'll be the first to find out. Wang Hu said.

"Okay!" Li De nodded, looked at Weiwei's delicate face again, and ended the meeting and let everyone go back to their respective posts.

The step hop is the passage in and out of the subspace wormhole during interstellar flight. In order to cross tens of thousands of light-years between star sectors, the fleet's ships need to do step flights to reach them quickly. Step flight is the use of gravity and velocity transformations to open a subspace channel, folding the original space to make a path from one point to another point tens of thousands of light-years away. And the step of a large fleet requires a stable step point, otherwise there will be big problems.

During the step, the bow of a one-kilometer-long battleship will often appear that the bow has entered the step point, and the stern is still outside the wormhole, and it may even be that the bow has completed the step and the hull is still in the process of stepping. Therefore, the stability of the entrance and exit of the wormhole is extremely important.

Puldo uses stargates to secure these wormhole openings, while humans can only do so using step hops.

Gravitational attraction is everywhere in the universe, and the movement of stars causes the gravitational attraction in cosmic space to change constantly. And a small change in gravitational pull can cause unstable fluctuations in the step point. This unstable fluctuation will cause the battleship that is passing through the wormhole to be split in two, or all lost in subspace.

A step point is a point in space where gravity is relatively stable, and it is some spatial relative coordinates. Mastering these steps, you can basically control the route of the fleet, which is also a point that the Federation has not been able to fight head-on with the Poolpeople, and the Poolower can easily grasp the human step, and then control the Federation's fleet route.

The distance from the nearest step is about 40 billion kilometers, which is about the distance of three solar systems. At this time, two reconnaissance ships were hovering near the empty space of the step point, monitoring the silent universe.

Both recon ships were converted from the original civilian spacecraft, each carrying two soldiers and was responsible for transmitting the status of the step hops to the star of Wheelraiser three times a day.

One of the Scout's missions is a month, and at that time, another ship will replace them.

The scouts on the spaceship were originally smugglers, and they were all self-taught in piloting the spaceship. Now he has become a regular army, and he is very proud to float in the cabin in military uniform. (In order to save fuel, the ship's virtual gravity system was turned off during scouting.)
