"Second Lieutenant Qiangwei, this mission has been successfully completed, please give instructions!"
A soldier wearing a green military uniform walked up to Qiangwei, saluted Qiangwei and asked.
"Um!"
Du Qiangwei nodded, "Let's return!"
Du Qiangwei's voice was cold and full of intimidation, like an indifferent iceberg, intimidating.
"yes!"
The soldiers controlling the spacecraft immediately issued orders and sent a return signal to the space fleet still wandering in space.
The "di-di-di" signal sounds.
One after another, the mining spacecraft began to turn their bloated bodies, and under the escort of small fighter planes, they quickly left the orbit of Jupiter and returned to the Chinese base on Europa.
Europa is a white world whose surface is covered by a thick layer of ice. Low temperatures and severe cold coexist here. Compared to the Earth, it is a white hell.
But beneath the ice, which is hundreds of kilometers thick, there is another world.
In human speculation, there may be fresh water and volcanoes here.
This means that there may be life under this deep layer of ice.
However, the domestic side does not know all this and is unable to detect it. The most important thing now is to discuss with various countries the ownership of the planets in the solar system, how to gain control of the planet, and how to develop the planet. This is what matters to the future of the country.
A matter of destiny.
"The fleet has entered the atmosphere, please prepare ground troops."
The mining spacecraft in front has already rubbed against Europa's thin atmosphere, emitting a faint light.
On the ground, a huge military base lay in an ice field. There were high-power searchlights around it, illuminating the area as bright as day.
Looking at the slowly landing Jupiter mining spacecraft, domestic soldiers wearing red and bloated life-support suits looked up one after another with a look of excitement on their faces.
It took a lot of effort for the country to gain control of Europa.
Because of the special nature and importance of Europa, China fought fiercely with Amerikan at international meetings, but in the end, American chose to compromise and agreed to domestic control of this planet.
Ameriken has no choice. Who blames the He Group for having such a close relationship with the domestic government?
If their actions anger the He Group, their situation will be very dangerous.
But what makes them more gratified is that they have gained a lot of benefits while fighting for the ownership of planets in the solar system.
For example, near Jupiter, the ownership of Ganymede belongs to Amrican.
Ganymede is the largest satellite of Jupiter. Although it is not as valuable as the domestic Europa, its importance is unquestionable.
"Lieutenant Qiangwei, you have worked hard. We have prepared a sumptuous dinner. I hope you will be satisfied."
An officer came to pick him up and smiled at Qiangwei and others beside him.
"Well, thank you, then I'll trouble you to lead the way."
Qiangwei nodded slightly, without any smile on her face, and then said to the others: "Everyone, get in the car."
The next work is left to the soldiers on the ground.
"Lieutenant Qiangwei, you must have suffered a lot when you were mining in the universe, right?"
As soon as Qiangwei sat down, the officer started talking.
The officer is still very curious about the situation of diamond troops mining in the universe.
The domestic diamond force was born decades ago in response to the country's urgent need for strategic reserves of various rare minerals, becoming the first force in Chinese history to be responsible for mineral geological survey, exploration and production tasks.
Originally, the size of this force was not large, but due to human beings entering space exploration, this force has great authority in the domestic military.
All space mining tasks have fallen into the hands of this force, and it has become a key protection unit of the domestic military.
This kind of protection unit is not just as simple as searching for ores or collecting fuel in space.
Its role is very wide, including exploring planets, building bases, establishing planetary defense systems, etc., and they are all inseparable from the diamond force.
Therefore, the members of the Diamond Force, officers and soldiers stationed on various planets are very curious and admire them very much.
The planet they were stationed on was very boring, with nothing but coldness and darkness.
Moreover, they did not dare to leave the base too far. The life-support suits they wore could only allow them to survive on this dead planet for one hour.
Here, except for the new warships rising from the spaceship manufacturing factory in the distance and the landing supply spacecraft that can attract their attention, the rest of the place is the darkness they hate most.
Because of the strong gravitational attraction of Jupiter, Europa's rotation period is very slow. It takes about 3.5 Earth days for it to rotate once.
This means that Europa's night is about 3.5 times that of the Earth, which is a very severe test for human physiological functions and mental health.
"We're okay. It's just that we've been wandering in the universe for a long time, and our concept of time has changed a bit, so staying outside for a few months is nothing to us."
Rose replied.
Months of space exploration did not bring about any change in her mentality. Qiangwei still had that calm and indifferent expression.
"Oh! So that's it. I envy you quite a bit. You can roam around the universe as much as you want, but we can't. We can only stay in the base. It's really boring here."
The officer shook his head and said with some regret.
They were trapped in this base like birds in a cage every day. He was really not used to this feeling.
But they have no right to choose. For the sake of domestic interests, they have to obey the orders of their superiors and protect domestic space rights from being infringed.
"Actually, there is not as much freedom in the universe as you think."
Qiangwei shook his head. He could imagine how much pressure these warriors were under. "There are many dangers in the universe. For example, sometimes a meteorite will suddenly appear that is flying very fast. This kind of meteorite is very fast. If you don't avoid it in time,
, then our fleet will be destroyed."
"That's true."
The officer nodded, thinking of the reports of losses to space forces from various countries.
When humans first entered space, they often encountered unpredictable dangers when wandering around in the universe because they had little experience.
Meteorites flying around in space often hit some spacecraft.
Because humankind's protective shield technology is still in the testing stage, it cannot stop the impact of those meteorites at all.
Therefore, it is very dangerous to sail in the universe. If you are not careful, the aircraft will be destroyed and people will die.
