I can't afford to support the ship girl, so I decided to hand myself over

"Hmm... Bepha, is it snowing?"

"Yes, the first snow of the year fell last night."

Sun Xianyun's eyes fell on Belfast.

She was still dressed in the maid outfit when she first met, but she wrapped a scarf around her slender neck.

Noticing that Sun Xianyun's clothes were wrinkled, Belfast stepped forward and gently tidied him up.

"Commander, the temperature drops sharply after winter, please pay attention to adding clothes if possible."

"I won't catch a cold, right now."

Seeing that Sun Xianyun didn't listen, Belfast was rarely dissatisfied.

"Where is Lord Lexington?"

"Gaga called and is chatting with her."

Belfast nodded.

Belfast, who had been part of the family for some time, had naturally encountered the situation when Saratoga called.

"Brother Xianyun! Look at this ice sculpture I made!!!"

At this time, Chaoge suddenly called Sun Xianyun excitedly.

When the two looked around, they saw an ugly snowman beside the little girl... Huh?Ice sculpture?

"How did you do it?"

"Hey, I sprayed it with engine coolant!"

The little girl proudly put her hands on her hips, and her face was full of the appearance of having done something remarkable.

Both Sun Xianyun and Belfast are very tolerant of this child-like Chao Ge, and often let her mess around.

Fortunately, Chaoge knows how to measure himself, and has never done anything out of line for such a long time.

After breakfast, Sun Xianyun, who originally thought that nothing would happen today, suddenly received a notice.

The sudden news made him overjoyed.

……Dividing line……

afternoon.

Sun Xianyun, Lexington, Chaoge and Belfast came to the starship construction factory again.

"The final equipment is still being debugged."

The person in charge said to Sun Xianyun proudly.

"It is estimated that everything will be completed in the evening, and the final test can be carried out by then!"

Sun Xianyun glanced at the excited Belfast and Chaoge beside him.

He didn't expect that the hull of the two men had been roughly completed.

"How could it be so fast? Didn't it take several years to build an aircraft carrier before?"

Sun Xianyun still remembers that it took several years before and after the first aircraft carrier independently built by the country, and this speed was already quite fast in the peaceful years. Don't you see the hope of the third brother, the aircraft carrier named Vikrant was used up and down. After decades of construction and launching several times, the result is that the construction has not been completed until now?

Although there are reasons for "Ah San's characteristics" in it.

"There are many reasons for this."

The person in charge patiently explained to Sun Xianyun.

"In fact, the starship has already started the preliminary module construction when the idea of ​​the space fleet was proposed last year. It's just that General Sun brought back a lot of new technologies, which made us need to temporarily change the drawings."

0 0

"But it's not a big problem. Comrade Bumblebee helped us upgrade a full set of production lines. In addition, many modules are available in advance, and the country has invested a lot of resources. Only in such a short period of time can we build the Belfast And Chaoge—this speed is very fast, but General Sun need not be too surprised, do you know what is the record of dumplings served by Yingjiang during World War II?"

Sun Xianyun asked in cooperation, and the person in charge finally gave the answer: "At that time, it was a wartime system, and all forces in the country served the war. As a result, Yingjiang set a record of launching an aircraft carrier on average more than ten times..."

Sun Xianyun couldn't help being speechless for a while.

Even if it is the kind of aircraft carrier during World War II, it is too scary to launch an aircraft carrier on average more than a dozen times.

It's no wonder that Benzi went crazy and gambled on the country's fortunes. With Yingjiang's war potential, after throwing off his arms and doing it, ten notebooks tied together are no match.

"In order to build our starship, the country has established a coordinating committee with 28 departments, 1 related specialties, 10 supporting manufacturers, a total of more than [-] construction workers and an investment of more than [-] billion... "

"10,000+ people worked together to bring you the Belfast and Chaoge in such a short period of time. In addition, your own Lexington is also coming soon. In short, the next mission It will definitely come in handy.”

Belfast's body felt weak while listening.

She never imagined that she would pay such a huge price for the construction of her hull.

Every time I came to visit, I saw that although the number of workers in the factory was large, it was not too exaggerated, but I never thought that what I saw was just the tip of the iceberg.

In places that cannot be seen, there are still thousands of people who are silently working hard.

She raised her head and looked at the huge new hull in front of her.

The silver-gray shell glowed with a cold light unique to metal.

But that cold light in Belfast's eyes made her heart burn like fire.

PS. I was too busy at work during the day and had no time to code, so I went home and kept you waiting for a long time to continue updating

Chapter 163 Hull replacement, cruise test

It is 580 meters long and 270 meters at its widest point—of course this is the widest point, including the protruding wing-like parts on both sides. Overall, the aspect ratio of the main structure is about three to one.

In terms of appearance, it is somewhat similar to the mammalian frigate in Stellaris.

Two cold nuclear fusion reactors, six plasma thrusters, one leap engine and ten high-power anti-gravity engines.

In addition, various components such as inertial stabilization anchors, light speed compensation communications, and new laser cannons were all installed.

These are the two starships built by the country in such a short period of time with all its strength.

【Xia】class destroyer HMS Belfast.

【Xia】class destroyer Chaoge.

Unlike the Lexington, which is equipped with a hangar that can be used to launch space fighters, the Belfast and Chaoge do not have the ability to launch carrier-based aircraft.

All their methods of killing and killing come from those ferocious artillery.

Although the hull is still undergoing some tests, the interior is already available for people to visit.

Under the leadership of the person in charge, a group of people passed through the hatch of Belfast and entered the interior of the hull.

"According to the country's plan, all starships classified by dynasty will be ship mothers, so there is not much space for crew members. Battleships that need to be controlled by humans have another classification."

"The Xia class is our first batch of destroyers. The overall design idea is the same as the previous Lexington, but an additional carrying space is designed to deal with possible carrying tasks."

While listening to the person in charge's introduction, everyone walked in the alloy corridor.

There will be a fully enclosed metal gate at intervals in the corridor, and these gates are all open at this time.

The faint blue lights illuminate the space inside the ship.

After passing through the corridor, everyone came to the bridge space.

"This is...too luxurious...!?"

Looking at the luxurious bridge space in front of him, Belfast exclaimed.

"This is normal." The person in charge said with a smile, "Interstellar travel is long, even if we have a jump engine, we can only travel quickly between galaxies, and the time for sublight speed voyage in galaxies is often several months , After such a long time, it is a very important design indicator to ensure the happy mood of the ship's mother. Comrade Belfast, do you have any dissatisfaction here? You can make requests as much as you like, we have the best interior designers... ..."

"Thank you very much, I have nothing more to ask for."

Belfast shook her head. She was very satisfied with the living space in front of her that was several orders of magnitude more comfortable than the presidential suite.

Yes, it's Cambridge, but it's actually Belfast's living space.

It seems that considering that Belfast was born with a good background, the overall decoration here is full of strong Victorian style.

If it weren't for the ubiquitous consoles, no one would think that this would be a Cambridge of starships.

"Where is mine! I want to see my hull too!"

Chao Ge couldn't wait to jump up beside him.

Lexington put his hand on the little girl's head, and gently pressed it: "Okay, I will go, don't worry."

The overall design of Chaoge's hull is no different from that of Belfast, but the interior of Cambridge does not have the eye-catching British style.

The little girl turned around in her own ship, looking at everything in amazement, wishing that Sun Xianyun could transfer herself to the new ship immediately.

"When the official test is tonight, the Supreme Consul will come to attend the ceremony in person."

"Will Mr. Yang come too?"

Sun Xianyun was slightly surprised.

But after thinking about it, the old man was also present when the first traditional aircraft carrier built by the country was launched. It is not surprising that he came to the scene when the starship was completed.

The time soon came to evening.

In addition to Mr. Yang, there are also a group of high-level executives who turned down work and found time temporarily.

Banners had been hung in the dock in advance, and everyone was waiting beamingly, looking at the two behemoths from time to time.

The old man is radiant at this time, no wonder he is so, the country has gained a lot of benefits through the lunar base during this period, breaking through many foreign blockades in the past.

Although it made Ying Jiang jump up and down, but now the country doesn't pay much attention to the other party.

In someone's words - now it is the eagle sauce that cannot be separated from the rabbit, and it is not the rabbit that cannot be separated from the eagle sauce.

"After all, today is very special. It is necessary to transfer the core of the ship girl, so no one from the media has been arranged. After a few days, there will be an additional ceremony for the official commissioning of the service. At that time, all media will be invited, so you can Never mind."

Mr. Yang's words made Sun Xianyun and others shake their heads.

What's the point of this.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's get started"

After he finished speaking, Belfast and Chaoge immediately manifested themselves in the two dry docks that were vacated next to them.

Sun Xianyun and Lexington stood between the two boats and closed their eyes at the same time.

The spreading spiritual power enveloped Belfast and Chaoge.

"Hmm... ha... aha! It's this feeling again! Brother Xianyun has come in!"

Chao Ge, who had already experienced it once, immediately started yelling in the spiritual communication.

Although Belfast did not speak, but in a state of close spiritual connection, Sun Xianyun clearly felt the surprise and shyness in the heart of the maid.

Ignoring the bluffing Chao Ge, Sun Xianyun restrained his mental power, and at the same time successfully stripped the core of the two of them out of the main body.

After that, he and Lexington each held a core and came to Chaoge and Belfast respectively.

As the core slowly merged into the brand-new hull, the huge starship, which was originally silent, let out a deep roar inside.

The light on the shell suddenly turned on, causing many people to close their eyes subconsciously.

"Quick, quick! Open the dome! Open the dome!"

A person in charge shouted loudly, and with a burst of mechanical roar, the roof of the huge dock slowly opened from both sides, revealing the dark blue night sky.

"Belfast, Chaoge, try to fly!"

Sun Xianyun said so with anticipation in his heart.

The two starships were ordered, the anti-gravity engines started to work, and the huge hull slowly lifted into the sky.

0.2 With the power of the propeller at the tail, the starship roared towards the bright moon in the night sky.

With the sound of breaking through the air, the two destroyers pierced the sky, leaving behind several long blue tail flames.

"Oh oh oh oh!!!!"

"Success!"

"We made it!!!!!!"

"Long live!!!!!"

In an instant, everyone in the entire dock cheered, and many workers even threw their hard hats into the sky.
