Chapter 86 "Yamato" Asteroid Orbital Defense Fortress
"Retreat, retreat immediately, notify everyone, board the ship and evacuate immediately, quickly!"
If it is a force that has not conflicted with the "Xinjing Shogunate", perhaps it can be negotiated.
But if the other party is an enemy, there is no possibility of negotiation.
At this time, in the outer space of Planet No. 7, the HFB-1 ship slowly entered the orbit of Planet No. 7.
A new force?
Looking at the base standing in the methane swamp on the holographic screen in front of him, Ralph frowned slightly.
I don't know how many years it has been dormant, but I didn't expect the empire to be divided.
Many human forces have appeared in a small star field.
There is also the "Trade Mall", which is the product of an unknown alien civilization, and it has established new rules in the Milky Way.
"Hmph, a little fluorescent light dares to compete with the sun and the moon, in the name of the Emperor..."
With a cold snort, Ralph waved his hand and shouted: "Eliminate the rebels, target: ground base, light spear orbital strike!"
In the planetary orbit, the HFB-1 ship slowly approached the low-Earth orbit, as close to the ground as possible.
As a "Firestorm-class" escort ship, the only orbital strike firepower of the HFB-1 ship is the light spear main gun located under the bow.
Its 30-meter caliber is powerful enough, and it is most suitable for orbital strikes.
Looking up at the sky from the surface of the planet, you can see a giant ship appearing in the sky.
At this time, on the surface of the planet...
"High-energy reaction detected, it is an energy weapon, and the orbital strike is coming..."
Hurriedly entered the bridge of the Columbus transport ship, and as soon as he entered, Shigemitsu heard a bad news.
The voice was a little panic, and the faces of the crew in the bridge were only nervous.
"Everyone aboard, Commander Shigemitsu, we can set sail..."
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up, evacuate this airspace immediately, hurry up!"
The fear of "death" made Shigemitsu almost roar.
Outside, there was a rumbling sound of the engine, and the air seemed to be trembling.
The lift engine on the belly of the Columbus transport ship ejected a blue tail flame dozens of meters long.
The high-temperature ion flow hit the ground, vaporizing a large area of liquid methane, and rising up a billowing white mist.
In the billowing white mist, the two-hundred-meter-long transport ship slowly rose into the air.
Just a few dozen meters above the ground, the main engine nozzle at the tail ejected a dazzling blue tail flame.
Under the powerful thrust, the transport ship rose in altitude while flying towards the distant sky.
The speed was getting faster and higher...
Just a few kilometers away from the base, behind, there was a dazzling white light flashing.
A huge white beam of light descended from the sky and bombarded the ground.
The target was the mining base.
"Boom..."
Under the scorching high-energy beam of rays, the base was instantly destroyed.
Although there was no dazzling explosion effect, any target hit by the light spear would be blasted to pieces.
The light spear emits a sustainable beam of light.
The beam of light bombarding the mining base was moving, and wherever it passed, the metal buildings instantly turned into molten iron.
It lasted for more than ten seconds before the beam that penetrated the sky and the earth disappeared.
In the swamp, the base had turned into a piece of metal ruins.
A huge bottomless hole could be seen in the ruins.
On the other side, in the sky tens of kilometers away, the transport ship soared into the sky.
It broke away from the gravity of the planet at the fastest speed and rushed out of the atmosphere.
At the moment when it rushed out of the planet's gravity well, a ball of blue light burst out from the hull of the transport ship.
The transport ship turned into a blue and disappeared into the depths of the starry sky.
"Colonel Ralph, a spaceship has escaped from the planet and has entered superluminal space..."
It ran quite fast...
It was just a civilian ship, so Ralph didn't care too much.
Leaning back slightly, Ralph said: "Log record, Empire New Era 0004-07-01, unknown rebels were found in the S-01894 star system, the mining base of the unknown forces on Star 7 was destroyed, a transport ship escaped and disappeared, the HFB-1 ship will stay in the S-01894 star system for two months, explore minerals, and test the next reaction of the unknown forces. If they encounter an enemy, they will evacuate first to prepare for the next battle. If the unknown forces do not respond, they will explore the surrounding star fields in two months. That's all!"
Ralph only needs to say it, and someone will record his words in the logbook.
"Remove the combat readiness and continue the exploration mission..."
...
S-01909 star system.
The starry sky is boundless, dark, cold and dead.
An icy planet floats quietly in the dark universe.
In the orbit of the planet, a huge asteroid can be seen.
It is huge, with a diameter of no less than 50 kilometers.
Metal buildings, large and small aprons, and giant turrets can be seen on the surface.
There are even more than a dozen open-air harbors for large warships to dock.
In the harbor, you can see dark blue and white warships.
There are Salamis-class cruisers about 300 meters long and Magellan-class battleships about 500 meters long.
At a glance, there are no less than seven ships, filling up two-thirds of the harbor.
Two years ago, this huge asteroid fortress did not exist.
"Yamato" Orbital Asteroid Defense Fortress, this is its name.
Its main body is a huge asteroid.
It took the Xinjing Shogunate half a year to transport it to the orbit of S-01909-A.
Then it was transformed, hollowed out, equipped with power engines, and deployed anti-ship weapons.
It took nearly two years to transform the asteroid into an orbital asteroid defense fortress.
At this time, in the "Yamato" asteroid orbital fortress.
"Failed. With the technology we have now, we can't transform Planet A."
In a conference room, four people knelt on a futon, sitting opposite each other.
One person was wearing a dark blue kimono, kneeling in the main seat.
On the left sat a young man in a gray kimono.
On the right was a young man in a white military uniform.
The other was in a long white robe.
Shogun of the New Capital Shogunate: Morimasa
Minister of Finance: Tomoya
Commander of the Navy Fleet: Ichiro Shiba.
Director of the Technical Department: Yuta Yokoyama.
These are their names and their identities.
Yokoyama Yuta's words made the three people's eyes flash with disappointment.
Is it really impossible...
S-01909-A is an icy planet.
If the ice can be melted, it can be transformed.
With sufficient water resources, Planet A can soon be transformed into a habitable planet.
They did a lot of experiments.
Laser satellites and light energy heat source generators were put into orbit.
Some fusion reactors were even built experimentally on the ground.
But their effects are limited and can only play a certain role in a small area.
It is almost impossible to transform the world.
Unless the orbit is full of laser satellites, light energy heat source generators, and the ground is covered with fusion reactors.
Tomoya pondered and said, "It seems that we still have to find a way from the trade mall."
