From ship girl to machine god

Faced with Jade Bird's questioning look, the staff naturally found it difficult to say no, and theoretically speaking, there was nothing wrong with Jade Bird's doing so.

So he didn't hesitate and just asked Zhang Peng to find someone as Jade Bird said.

Zhang Peng threw the flight helmet to Liu Peiqiang and turned around to find the suitable pilot.

Seeing this, Qingniao also said to Liu Peiqiang and Han Duoduo: "Do you two have any belongings to bring? I may let you stay in Beijing for a while, and I will have other tasks for you later."

Han Duoduo and Liu Peiqiang looked at each other, and after thinking for a while, they both shook their heads.

They were originally sent here to receive training. They did not bring many personal belongings and did not need to go back to pack them.

Even if there is something important, it is the same if you come back to pick it up later or ask someone to send it back.

So the two of them followed the blue bird to the hangar, where they saw a prepared military transport plane parked with the hatch open and loading things inside, most of which were instruments, equipment and documents.

Obviously, these are very important and need to be transported back home urgently after the attack.

Qingniao had no idea that the plane was not just transporting her alone. She just curiously followed Liu Peiqiang and Han Duoduo, watching them prepare the fighter jets they would use for escort.

What they used was the J-20 two-seater vertical take-off and landing supersonic stealth fighter, the same type used by Zhang Peng and Liu Peiqiang when they came back from rescuing the Blue Bird.

However, at that time, because it was a short-distance flight and it took off and landed vertically, the fighter plane was not fully loaded.

But this time it was an escort mission, and they were flying back to China, so the two fighter jets being prepared were fully fueled and loaded with ammunition, and they would taxi to take off normally instead of taking off and landing vertically.

Looking curiously at these two aircraft, which should be said to be the most advanced fighter jets in the hands of the coalition government, Jade Bird was also comparing them with its own carrier-based aircraft.

In terms of size, there is no doubt that the J-20 is larger. After all, the Bluebird's carrier-based aircraft are all drones. Without the driver and various equipment needed to protect the driver, the size of the fighter can naturally be greatly reduced, and in The design can be more flexible.

Not only that, as a product of the magically modified version of the Nantianmen Project, Jade Bird's carrier-based aircraft are already using reactors for energy, and their flight endurance is far longer than that of these fighter jets that still need to burn fuel. The weapons and equipment have also widened the generation gap, and their combat capabilities have also widened. It can be said that there is an obvious gap.

Of course, if the pilot factor is taken into account, Jade Bird cannot guarantee that its carrier-based aircraft will win if driven by an ace pilot.

After all, carrier-based aircraft only use weak artificial intelligence level AI as the driving program, and need to be equipped with a command system to fight. There is a big gap between the pilot's subjective initiative.

It may not be a problem to fight ordinary ordinary pilots, but when it comes to that kind of genius or experienced ace golden helmet, it will inevitably be a little inadequate.

Thinking of this, Qingniao couldn't help but think of the version of the Nantianmen Project he had seen before traveling through time. The Xuannv aerospace fighter in it had two types, unmanned and manned, and could be switched easily. Should he consider getting a batch of manned ones? version of the fighter jet, and then copy the thinking of a few ace pilots from the coalition government to improve the tactical level of its own carrier-based aircraft?

Although Blue Bird is an aircraft carrier girl, and controlling carrier-based aircraft is like a natural instinct, the tactical and strategic level still needs practice and can be improved.

You must know that since it was upgraded to an aircraft carrier, Jade Bird has not yet controlled a carrier-based aircraft battle. When fighting its META self before, Jade Bird only released the carrier-based aircraft and let them automatically meet the enemy.

Now that I think about it, if my carrier-based aircraft could have been more efficient at that time, maybe I wouldn't have been so badly beaten?

After all, although the META version of herself has terrifying combat power, she has no sense or thinking at all. She is just a beast. If the carrier-based aircraft is more efficient, it can even be directly sunk, so there is no need for the Blue Bird to fight her. It's a lose-lose situation.

Keeping this in mind, Qingniao watched the two fighter jets being prepared. Han Duoduo and Liu Peiqiang also put on their flight suits. After getting ready to set off, they waited for a while before Zhang Peng pulled a The burly pilot rushed to the hangar with him.

"This is the Russian flight instructor Andrei Gorashinov. He and I are classmates in the aviation school. His flying skills are absolutely excellent and he has rich experience. He was the number one in our aviation school that year. He will definitely succeed Complete the escort mission!" Zhang Peng introduced to Jade Bird from the side, and Andrei Gorashinov also hurriedly saluted Jade Bird.

Chapter 8 Investigation Team

"Master, how long do you think we have to stay in Beijing?" In a barracks at a military base, Liu Peiqiang was leaning on his bunk in boredom, asking Zhang Peng who was reading a book beside him.

Zhang Peng raised his head and glanced at him, then turned his eyes back to the book and said angrily: "Just stay here, your superiors have given orders, and you will naturally have a place to go. And since our superiors asked us to stay here, then He must have his reasons, just wait and feel at ease."

"But it's been almost half a month, and there's no training or anything. Just letting us stay in the house like this doesn't mean we're under house arrest, right?" Liu Peiqiang's imagination was a little too big, but he Not too outrageous.

After all, they had been staying in the military camp where they were now since the space elevator was attacked half a month ago, and they had been ordered to escort the Blue Bird back to Beijing. They never left the front door and never stepped back. It was indeed like being under house arrest.

"So what? Didn't you think the earth was not beautiful before? Since it's not beautiful outside, why do you want to go out?" Zhang Peng glanced at Liu Peiqiang, who was lying on the bunk like a salted fish, and did not forget to educate him: "And you just can't bear your temper. Now is the chance to test your impatient personality."

However, Liu Peiqiang didn't want to listen to his lecture. He jumped up from the bed and rushed to Zhang Peng. He smiled flatteringly at him and said: "Master, please help me and think of a way! I haven't seen you for half a month. It’s too late for Duoduo, master~!”

While talking, Liu Peiqiang grabbed Zhang Peng's arm and acted coquettishly.

"Stop! Stop! Stop!" Being disturbed by Liu Peiqiang and unable to read, Zhang Peng closed the book in his hand and threw it aside. He raised his fingers and wanted to scold Liu Peiqiang, but he looked at him with a fawning look on his face. He looked helpless and said: "Just this once! For Ren Duoduo's sake, I'll go find someone to inquire. You boy, just stay here and be obedient. If you let me know what trouble you dare to make, you See how I deal with you!"

After saying that, Zhang Peng got up and was going to go to the base to find someone to find out how long they would stay here.

However, before Zhang Peng could go out, a staff member came in and handed two document bags to Zhang Peng and Liu Peiqiang respectively, asking them to gather outside.

The two of them took the document bag and looked at the words 'Top Secret' printed on the cover. They were both confused, but they knew that they didn't have to stay so boringly anymore.

So the two hurriedly opened the document bag, read the documents inside, and ran towards the playground where they were gathering outside.

It is said to be a document, but it is actually a transfer order. The content is that starting from receiving this document, the person who receives the document will be transferred to a special force with a confidentiality level of top secret to participate in a confidential mission. The content of the mission remains the same. It is top secret and can only be spoken orally by relevant personnel and may not be recorded in any form.

Looking at the transfer order in their hands, both Zhang Peng and Liu Peiqiang felt an inexplicable feeling that something big was going to happen!

And when they came to the playground with their transfer orders and saw other soldiers from various services who also had transfer orders in their hands, as well as scientific researchers who were unloading various scientific instruments from the trucks, they became even more certain about this mission. It's definitely not simple.

But compared to these, Liu Peiqiang was more concerned about whether Han Duoduo had also received the order, and looked around to find Han Duoduo.

They had been separated since coming to Beijing. Liu Peiqiang had not received any news about Han Duoduo in half a month, which made him very worried.

Fortunately, as he looked around, Han Duoduo's figure finally appeared in front of him.

The two looked at each other and seemed to be relieved after confirming that the other was okay.

As long as we are all in this base, we will naturally have time to find a way to meet each other later, so there is no need to rush now.

And they really didn't have time to say anything, because as soon as everyone was basically there, officers came over to organize the team.

They were all soldiers who were no strangers to queuing, and they quickly arranged the queue according to height, shortness, fatness, and thinness. However, Zhang Peng was still worried about Liu Peiqiang and squeezed in next to Liu Peiqiang with a shy face.

But it doesn't matter. They are just standing in a team. It's not a big deal to want to stand with an acquaintance.

After the team was lined up, the officers of the entire team began to give a lecture, but there was no substantive content. It was just emphasizing the importance of this mission, asking everyone to improve their chances, and pay attention to confidentiality. It was a cliché.

After all, those who could be mobilized here were all the top elites from the flight teams of various countries. Liu Peiqiang saw several people who had participated in preparatory astronaut training in Gabon, and Zhang Peng saw more familiar faces.

For people like them, discipline and confidentiality regulations are something they are more familiar with than their own ID number.

The officer seemed to know this, so after saying a few words, he stepped aside, as if waiting for someone.

Just when Liu Peiqiang was curious and peeked around with his eyes, several armored vehicles he had never seen before stopped in front of them, and a group of soldiers wearing full-coverage exoskeletons got out of the vehicles. Among these soldiers It was the bluebird who had asked him to come to Beijing before.

"I believe everyone is curious as to why you were transferred here..." Qingniao stood in front of everyone, surrounded by exoskeleton soldiers with loaded guns. He looked very impressive and made people even more curious about what this was. what happened.

Naturally, Jade Bird didn’t talk nonsense. After a few simple opening remarks, he said the real heavy content: “In order to deal with the helium flash crisis 100 years later, the coalition government formulated the Mountain Moving Plan and the Ark Plan, but whether it is the Earth Faction or the Ark Plan, Still the spaceship faction, the final destination is the Proxima Centauri galaxy 4.2 light-years away.

Because this is the closest star system to the solar system and the closest new home that human technology can currently reach.

However, we know nothing about this galaxy. Humanity's existing space navigation methods cannot obtain any information about that galaxy in a short time. Even the best astronomical telescopes can hardly obtain any valuable information.

Therefore, in order for the future Mountain Moving Plan or Ark Plan to be implemented smoothly, the coalition government decided to send a survey team to the Proxima Galaxy to conduct investigations in advance to obtain relevant information and intelligence and prepare for subsequent plans. You are the preliminary members of this survey team. . "

After finishing speaking, Qingniao paused for a few seconds, and then after these people digested the information, he continued to ask them: "Does anyone want to quit now?"

Chapter 9 Warp Engine

Does anyone want to quit?The answer is of course no.

Although this task sounds very unreliable, and can even be described as an uncertain future, everyone who can be selected has never flinched.

They are soldiers, and they are supposed to protect their homes and the country, stand up in times of crisis, and are duty-bound when the country and people need it.

Although it is now a United Nations government and there are many foreign soldiers among the members of the investigation team assembled here, the military's sense of honor still prevents any of them from choosing to withdraw.

Just being loyal to the mission, being loyal to the mission, everyone still wants to know what this mission is all about.

After all, with the current aerospace technology that humans have mastered, it will take at least thousands of years to sail to the Proxima Galaxy.

This is also the reason why there is such an outrageous plan as the Mountain Removal Plan, which takes the entire earth to the Proxima Galaxy. Because mankind's current aerospace technology is simply unable to build an aircraft that can last for 500 years.

If the earth is lost, no one can guarantee that the last fire of human civilization can successfully reach its new home.

It is precisely because of this that the Mountain-Moving Plan is the solution with the highest success rate in dealing with the helium flash crisis.

However, now they have received the mission to investigate the Proxima Galaxy, which is really unexpected.

Not to mention that the spaceship faction has not built a spaceship that can cross the star sea so far. Even if it does, the engine that can be built with human technology at present will take thousands of years to fly. Do they want to reproduce on the spaceship? ?

But if this is the case, the male-female ratio of the investigation team is wrong. After all, if we want to reproduce, the male-female ratio should be roughly 1:1, instead of the current situation where there are very few female members.

This doesn't look like a personnel plan prepared for a long-term mission, but more like a short-term mission.

Because of all these doubts, the preliminary members of the investigation team were naturally full of doubts. Liu Peiqiang was even more anxious. If he really stayed in space for decades, he and Han Duoduo would not be married yet!

Fortunately, Jade Bird quickly gave the answer and explanation. She explained to everyone: "The entire mission cycle is three years, with one year to go, one year to investigate, and one year to return. You will take the latest supercar of the United Nations Government." When the space jump ship goes to the Proxima Galaxy, we don’t have to worry about flying too long on the way, we will be faster than light.”

Qingniao's answer immediately caused a commotion. If they weren't all soldiers and had good discipline, I'm afraid it would have been a riot now.

After all, the existence of spaceships capable of hyperspace jumps is undoubtedly an important factor that will have a huge impact on the situation faced by mankind today.

Especially for the spaceship faction, this technological breakthrough will undoubtedly mean that the immigration ships that the spaceship faction needs to build will be shortened from flying for thousands of years to just a few years!This is a major benefit!

If this is the case, then there is no need to pile up massive resources on the Mountain-Moving Project. These resources can be used to build a large number of immigration ships to transfer the earth's population to new galaxies.

You must know that the helium flash crisis will not break out for another 100 years. Such a long time is enough for humans to move everyone on the earth to the Proxima Galaxy.

This question was naturally asked, but Jade Bird's answer was "confidential" and dismissed the question in a vague manner, only emphasizing that they must undergo the most rigorous training in the next seven months. And master the new equipment issued to them.

Because no one knows what is going on in the Proxima Galaxy. If there are really aliens, the investigation team will most likely need to fight.

Faced with this request, everyone in the investigation team had no emotions or thoughts. After all, if there are really aliens, conflicts or even wars are very likely.

After all, humans need a new home, and aliens are likely to occupy a planet suitable for survival.

Under such circumstances, if the other party is hospitable and allows human immigrants, then everyone will be happy.

But if you are facing an xenophobic or hostile alien civilization, then war will be inevitable, and it may even lead to the death of one of the two sides.

Considering this possibility, the establishment of the investigation team became reasonable. After all, when you don't know what is going on on the other side, conducting investigations to understand the situation is a necessary means.

It's just that since ancient times, people who do detective work usually have a high mortality rate.

But this has nothing to do with Qade Bird. She is only responsible for taking people there and bringing them back. As for what she will encounter and whether there will be a war, Qade Bird really doesn't know.

After all, although the ship girl is not scientific, she is still a scientific existence, not a magical thing next door, and can predict the future.

That's right, the so-called latest hyperspace jump ship of the United Government refers to the body of the Blue Bird.

After arriving in Beijing, with the support of a large amount of steel provided by China, Jade Bird has completed all repairs on the hull, and even lit up all the upgradeable modules on the scientific research line.

If it weren't for the fact that upgrading the hull would put it into a long sleep, Jade Bird could even upgrade its hull to another level.

Compared with the resources and production capacity that the entire coalition government can control, a mere few hundred thousand tons of steel is really nothing.

But the coalition government didn't give Jade Bird so many resources in vain. The spaceship faction headed by the United States made a request to Jade Bird, and that was to send a survey team to the Proxima Galaxy.

Originally, the earth faction headed by China had no interest in this matter. After all, according to their plan, the entire earth would fly over. If there were any aliens, they would directly fight them with the power of all mankind. A planet-level spacecraft ran over it directly, showing no signs of playing tricks.
