Moon, Taiyo Operational Command Center.

After months of renovation and deployment, a week ago, the Taiyo Operations Center was finally "fully operational".

Here, not only is the entire Taiyo front-line combat command deployed, but it is also a training and deployment base for space fighters, and carefully selected aviation pilots from various countries around the world gather here.

Of course, due to the progress of the project, the base of the air fighters is still a little simple, and the living conditions are far inferior to those of the Guanghan base that has been converted into civilian use in the distance.

Major Smir is from Texas and is in his Chinese New Year's Eve. As an engineering student, in order to realize his dream of fighting in the sea of stars, he joined the Navy directly after graduation, boarded the USS Reagan, and became a front-line combat pilot who witnessed the confrontation in the Strait ten years ago - if you can't get to the stars, then talk about the sea first.

With the birth of the Qin, Han, Tang, and Xia dynasties, as well as the great global reconciliation and the formation of a human community, the Reagan, which had long been unbearable, was also honorably laid off last year.

Major Smir, although he is highly skilled and physically excellent, has a variety of crisis management capabilities and a flight record of up to 4,000 hours...... I also made up my mind to go back to the farm and farm under this general trend of global disarmament - although human beings have space warships, but the warships are all unmanned warships, controlled by AI, what does it matter to their pilots?

At most, when you have time in the future, you can take a tourist spaceship for the Earth-Moon commuter and go to the moon to grab dirt and come back.

But with a mysterious order, his idea fell through.

Major Smir looked at his neighbor across the bed, who also wore the rank of Air Force Major, and he complained in the other's native language.

"The conditions here are worse than those of the Reagan." After complaining, Major Smir stretched out his hand to the other party: "My name is Smir, what do you call me, buddy?" ”

"Yang Wenzhi." Major Yang Wenzhi generously stretched out his hand, and listened to the pronunciation of buddy + son in the other party's mouth: "Brother, are you on the Reagan?" ”

"Yes, carrier-based pilots. What about you? ”

"I'm an air force unit, flying heavy fighters."

The two men announced their doors to each other as they cleaned up their salutes and beds—the double dormitory was small, less than ten square meters, and there was not much room for two chairs except for two beds and a table.

According to their rank and status, this is obviously the lowest match among the lowest.

But how to say it...... As a branch of the military destined to be abolished, they were able to remain in the army and even enter the Space Force...... Even if you still do front-line work like "pilot", for those former colleagues, it is already an extremely happy arrangement.

The conditions are a little harder, who hasn't come from the big head soldier's chase?

"Old Yang, do you know what our mission is this time?" After cleaning up, Major Smir asked tentatively.

At the beginning of entering the base, they received strict orders that they must speak Chinese to communicate with their colleagues in the base, and they must also pass a strict Chinese test - the reason is simple, now all the control modules and systems of the spacecraft are in Chinese, and as comrades, they must communicate in a unified language.

Of course, some special instructions can be expressed in English or Latin, and they are specially prepared for the long-standing "black words" of flying, or will keep everyone traditional.

In short, it highlights one idea, which is stable and efficient, and can not be translated without AI.

After receiving the task, Major Smir didn't think about why it was him, until he saw the notice, and he probably understood that it might be related to his good Chinese.

"I don't know, I'm just like you, I was going to retire and go home to farm." Yang Wenzhi shook his head and said very frankly: "But on the way here, I heard a few other buddies say that they probably made a space fighter and wanted us to test fly." ”

"Space fighters?"

"Well, it's probably a space fighter ......," Yang Wenzhi said, glancing out the window, watching the loaded machine soldiers patrolling outside, and several people in general's uniforms striding by.

Yang Wenzhi lowered his voice and said: "Now that AI is so developed, I heard that even the Auriga fleet we encountered when we came here are all unmanned spaceships. ”

Major Smir nodded heavily.

The spaceship they came came to staggered past the Aurigaya fleet, and watched the twenty-four space warships that represented the most advanced human beings set sail in formation, leaving a meteor-like halo in the sky and heading straight for the wormhole...... Frankly, as a soldier, it's impossible not to be shocked.

But because he was a soldier, Smir also smelled something unusual.

Humanity sent out all the main warships at once, including the Ursa Minor fleet that left a few months ago - the Ursa Minor fleet can also be explained by escorting the guests of the Orime, but how can the current Auriga fleet explain it?

There is no doubt that in times of non-war, this is counterintuitive.

Because the first mission of all weapons of war is to defend the homeland, and there is only one possibility to send all weapons out, and that is to send them to the front line!

However...... So far, there has been no news of any war.

"Whatever, anyway, if we are soldiers, we will honestly listen to the arrangement." Yang Wenzhi took out a photo of his son from his backpack, slapped the photo on the wall, and said with a smile: "My son is five years old this year. ”

"Yo, my daughter is four years old." Major Smir also took out a photo of a little girl from the back cover of his mobile phone and handed it to Yang Wenzhi, and after receiving the other party's heartfelt praise, he also posted it on the wall.

The two men looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

Now, ten years later, they are in the same room as comrades-in-arms...... It can only be said that fate is impermanent, and no one can predict what will happen next.

Just then, Aita's voice came from overhead.

"Notice, all military personnel with S-class registration cards will go to the -6F floor, meeting room A7 within fifteen minutes, repeat ......"

The two glanced at each other, and their good military literacy made them get up at the same time, and then strode out the door.

……

Basement 9th floor, Taiyo Operations Center, front line conference room.

General Qin sat at the head of the circular conference table, his gaze sweeping over the faces of the various responsible persons.

Thanks to the outstanding contributions made by China in this scientific and technological revolution, half of the people here are from China. And these people, including him, are the core decision-making force of the Chiefs of Staff of the entire Human Space Force.

Although it is still necessary to report to the Community Council for approval after they make operational opinions, everyone knows that in real wartime, all immediate tactical instructions will be issued directly from here.

No leader is interested in directing a warship to advance a thousand meters in battle.

"Guys, this is what happened ten minutes ago."

General Qin retracted his gaze, his expression extremely solemn.

As his voice fell, a holographic simulation descended on the table.

In the picture, two points of light quickly take shape in front of the human probe, and then slowly enlarge to resemble two space vehicles.
