304: Chapter 304 Caliber is Justice! I wonder what level of justice this 52.8-meter caliber represents?

Inside the Luan Bird.

Core module.

Inside the main control center, which spans over two thousand square meters, although it is filled with a metallic style and sci-fi colors, the working environment is not oppressive.

Various green plants are scattered in their respective corners, decorating the entire main control center with vitality.

Two months ago, the Shennong Project, led by Old Yuan's team, announced a major breakthrough in the "fully enclosed ecological circulation system."

This achievement, specifically designed for creating planetary bases, has already been initially applied within the Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership before the lunar base was even built.

Inside the Luan Bird main control center, 1327 technicians are vigorously conducting the final stage of technical review.

In the central area, there is a huge, three-dimensional holographic projection of the "Luan Bird."

At this moment, dozens of high-ranking Chinese officials are gathered around the Luan Bird projection, listening with great interest as General Armament Department Chief Zhang Zhaozhong speaks with familiarity.

"... Respected leaders!"

"The Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership is a supreme national defense artifact developed under the second phase of the Nantianmen Project, a super-large-scale national military industrial research project launched by China at the end of 2012!"

"Under the leadership of Lin Mo!"

"Our China has gathered the best military scientists and engineering technicians from across the country to join forces and tackle the challenges!"

"The project took a total of 198 days, involved over 1.5 million people, over 100,000 core technical personnel, and consumed over 10 trillion in funds. It can truly be called a national-level project..."

"... The Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership, also known as a large strategic aerospace carrier platform, is the core equipment specifically used for carrying out deep-space strategic cluster strike missions!"

"The ship is 1150 meters long, has a wingspan of 1380 meters, a deck-to-hull height of 210 meters, a maximum takeoff weight of 1.22 million tons, a maximum flight speed of Mach 2 within the atmosphere, and a maximum flight speed of Mach 30 after entering orbit..."

As Zhang Zhaozhong was speaking, red lights suddenly began to flash in multiple areas of the azure projection.

"Everyone, please look here!"

"The positions marked with red light on the Luan Bird projection are the energy system and propulsion devices of the Luan Niao Mothership!"

"I believe you, leaders, are already very familiar with the energy system!"

"The four brightest red dots among them are the 4 super-large ship-borne nuclear fusion reactors responsible for the energy supply of the Luan Niao Mothership!"

"They are each constructed from 512 'Golden Crow' units stacked in a three-dimensional configuration!"

"Just these 4 super-large ship-borne reactors have a power generation capacity sufficient to meet the electricity needs of the entire nation!"

Hearing this, all the Chinese leaders present were left speechless.

Zhang Zhaozhong continued with a smile.

"As for the propulsion devices, they are quite complex!"

"It is already extremely difficult for a super mothership weighing over a million tons to take off!"

"After taking off, it will face different flight mission environments such as the atmosphere, orbit, and space!"

"The driving force and propulsion methods required for each are completely different!"

"For this reason, under the overall design of Chief Designer Lin!"

"The Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership is equipped with 1 set of large force field propulsion arrays, 6 sets of inductive force field generation devices, 18 electromagnetic anti-gravity devices, and 60 large variable-cycle composite engines!"

"Among them,"

"The large variable-cycle composite engines will provide the basic driving force for the Luan Bird!"

"The anti-gravity devices can effectively offset the huge gravitational pull of Blue Star on the Luan Niao Mothership, greatly reducing the driving force required for the Luan Bird to take off and navigate within the atmosphere!"

"The inductive force field generation devices can ensure the rapid and flexible movement of the Luan Niao Mothership in space!"

"Finally, there is the most important large force field propulsion array!"

"This new type of propulsion technology, led by Chief Designer Lin, completely pushes the already far-ahead-of-its-time aerospace mothership into the realm of Science fiction!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhaozhong paused slightly, took a deep breath, and said.

"The large force field propulsion array will generate a force field energy shield around the Luan Niao Mothership!"

"This energy shield, transformed from a high-energy electromagnetic field, can not only significantly reduce air resistance by absorbing impact force!"

"It can also effectively resist attacks from energy weapons such as laser cannons, electromagnetic cannons, and particle cannons through deflection, consumption, and neutralization!"

"As for the slow-moving ballistic missile attacks at only ten or twenty Mach, the Luan Niao Mothership naturally has countless ways to easily neutralize them!"

"It can be said!"

"With the 'strongest shield' of the large force field propulsion array, the Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership will remain invincible even if it stays parked right at the enemy's doorstep!"

After listening to Zhang Zhaozhong's introduction, the group of Chinese leaders was deeply shocked.

Some of them had previously worried that such a huge super mothership flying in the sky would just be a target for others to hit.

But now, everyone finally had the answer!

Chief Designer Bai Yannian, the chief designer of China's scientific development, shook his head and said with a smile.

"You even managed to create an energy shield!"

"Comrade Lin Mo, didn't you design this based on those sci-fi movies from the Western Alliance?"

On the side, Lin Mo spread his hands with an innocent face.

"Otherwise?"

"The Eagle Nation is responsible for fantasy, and China is responsible for realization."

"Hasn't it been like this for so many years?"

Hearing this, everyone present burst into laughter.

Lin Mo was indeed right!

For so many years, the Western Alliance countries have been bragging about the Westerners, saying that Westerners are the smartest people on Blue Star.

All the high-ranking Chinese officials scoffed at this statement.

Anyone who has served as a high-level leader in China has seen it with their own eyes: the innovation and manufacturing capabilities of the Chinese people are absolutely invincible!

In those years when the Eagle Nation and Western Alliance countries were frantically suppressing and blockading, there had already been countless precedents in China of turning those advanced future weapons into reality by following weapon models or sci-fi movies.

For example, Academician Huang, the leading figure in China's strategic nuclear submarines and a recipient of China's highest honorary medal, once had a flash of inspiration just from a submarine model from the Eagle Nation, and eventually led his team to develop China's first generation of nuclear submarines.

The same goes for the Mushroom Bomb, Hydrogen Mushroom Bomb, fifth-generation fighter jets, and so on.

It is precisely because of this that the Chinese leadership decided to adopt the policies of The Doves, sending countless outstanding talents to the West to exchange and learn the most cutting-edge Science and technology on Blue Star.

Among these people, even if only 1 out of 10 returned to the country, it would allow China to continuously break through technical barriers in various fields!

Are there any other countries or ethnic groups in the world that are this exaggerated?

No!

On the entire Blue Star, only China, this one country and one nation, could create such a miracle!

Eventually, the Eagle Nation suddenly realized something was wrong.

You guys in China, while we in the Eagle Nation are crossing the river by feeling the stones, you in China are crossing the river by feeling us, the Eagle Nation—this is outrageous!

The slow-to-react Eagle Nation and the Western Alliance countries then decided to adopt the most insane blockade measures against China.

There was no other way; they were truly terrified by the Chinese people!

Of course, even today, they are unwilling to admit that the high-level talents of the Chinese nation are indeed naturally smarter than other ethnic groups!

...

In front of the Luan Bird projection, Zhang Zhaozhong's introduction of the energy and power system had just finished. Chief of Staff Zhou Wuzheng looked up at the areas flashing with red light, feeling a little confused in his heart.

"Comrade Zhaozhong!"

"You just said that the Luan Bird is equipped with 4 super-large ship-borne reactors, but this clearly shows 5?"

Reminded by Chief of Staff Zhou Wuzheng, others also looked at the interior of the Luan Bird projection.

"One, two... eh, it really is five!"

General Yun Feijie was also full of confusion.

"Comrade Zhaozhong, did you make a mistake? This is clearly five!"

Everyone focused their gaze on Zhang Zhaozhong, waiting for his follow-up explanation.

But Lin Mo stood on the side, smiling without saying a word.

"Respected leaders!"

Facing everyone's gaze, Zhang Zhaozhong chuckled.

"Regarding this super-large ship-borne reactor located at the bottom of the bow, it is not that I missed it!"

"It is because it does not participate in energy supply and cannot be counted as part of the energy system!"

"As for its specific function..."

Zhang Zhaozhong looked mysterious.

"Please allow me to hold back a little!"

"When we introduce the weapon system, everyone will naturally understand!"

Zhang Zhaozhong only said half of what he meant, making many high-ranking Chinese officials itch with impatience.

This guy is really whetting their appetites!

At this time, Chief Designer Bai Yannian, who knows a little bit about everything, was staring fixedly at the huge circular ring device located at the bottom of the bow.

Suddenly realizing something, a scorching light burst into his eyes!

"... Respected leaders, please look!"

"Those are all the sub-modules of our core module, including the sub-control module, living module, experimental module..."

"Our Luan Bird currently has 8,253 ship-borne personnel..."

Following the sequence, Zhang Zhaozhong continued to give a brief explanation of the Luan Bird's internal module structure and specific functions.

His speaking speed was not fast, but even though the Chinese leaders were comparing them one by one against the Luan Bird projection, they still listened with great difficulty.

The main reason was that the internal structure of the Luan Niao Mothership was simply ridiculously large!

You must know that from the top deck of the Luan Bird down to the bottom of the internal cabin, it is a full 180 meters, with a height comparable to a normal 60-story building!

Its internal modular cabin structure is also distributed in a complex and intricate way.

Overall, it looks just like a small steel city that is even more magical than a mountain city...

"..."

"... The Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership has 8 major hangars!"

"Among them, the central hangar carries 88 Xuan-Nu Fighter Jets!"

"The port and starboard hangars carry 176 White Emperor drones!"

"The three major hangars at the stern carry 233 auxiliary aircraft of various types, such as the Chi Xiao and Moon Shadow!"

"The main and auxiliary hangars at the bow are currently temporarily vacant!"

"In the future, they will carry a type of individual unmanned combat equipment called 'Chengying'!"

"..."

A few minutes later, it was finally the turn of the final weapon system, and countless white light points lit up on the Luan Bird projection.

Everyone's eyes were focused, staring unblinkingly at the huge ring device at the bow position.

Zhang Zhaozhong pointed to those sci-fi ship-borne weapons, his voice full of pride.

"Respected leaders!"

"These are the weapon systems of the Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership!"

"On the wings of the Luan Bird!"

"Each is equipped with 16 high-energy pulse laser cannons! ..."

"On the port and starboard sides!"

"Each is equipped with 8 super-heavy close-in defense electromagnetic turret batteries! ..."

"On the top of the deck!"

"There are 32 sets of airborne ultra-long-range missile launch mechanisms distributed! ..."

"At the bottom of the ship!"

"There are 64 sets of large multi-purpose missile vertical launch units! ..."

"At the bow position!"

"There are 4 high-power particle diffusion cannons! ..."

"The above!"

"Are the conventional weapons of the Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership!"

These sci-fi weapons that they had never even heard of—pulse laser cannons, close-in defense electromagnetic cannons, particle diffusion cannons—popped out of Zhang Zhaozhong's mouth one by one, giving the group of Chinese leaders an extremely unrealistic feeling.

But everyone knew very well in their hearts, this is reality!

It is the sci-fi reality that Lin Mo and a group of China's top military scientists created for China with their own hands!

Looking at those white light images, everyone was filled with excitement.

Possessing these future weapons that previously only existed in sci-fi movies, many people even started to feel sorry for the Eagle Nation.

After its maiden flight, the Luan Bird will head straight for the North American continent to actively launch an all-out offensive against the Eagle Nation.

Using such a super aerospace mothership to suppress the Eagle Nation, isn't that bullying people too much?

What?

What kind of people are the Eagle Nation?

Well, never mind then...

"These ship-borne armaments are truly too terrifying!"

General Yun Feijie shook his head and said with a lack of interest.

"I was still looking forward to the Eagle Nation being able to struggle a bit in the upcoming battle against the Eagle Nation!"

"Now it seems!"

"What's the difference between using these weapons to hit the Eagle Nation and stepping on an ant?"

"It's just too boring..."

General Yun Feijie said with great emotion, then turned around and said.

"Let's go!"

"There are still 20 minutes before the maiden flight ceremony, let's go down and sit for a while..."

Just at this moment, Zhang Zhaozhong suddenly spoke.

"Commander-in-Chief Yun, I haven't finished introducing the weapon system yet, don't be in such a hurry to leave!"

Hearing this, General Yun Feijie was stunned.

"What the hell?"

"There are still weapons?"

Zhang Zhaozhong said with a smile.

"Commander-in-Chief Yun."

"What I introduced just now were only the conventional weapons of the Luan Bird!"

"I haven't introduced the most important large-scale strategic weapons of mass destruction yet!"

"Besides, aren't you curious about what the function of that super-large ship-borne reactor is?"

General Yun Feijie was completely bewildered.

"No..."

"I said Comrade Zhaozhong, in front of these energy weapons, even a Mushroom Bomb would have to kneel and call it grandpa!"

"If these don't count as large-scale strategic weapons of mass destruction, what does?"

"And with so many energy weapons... does that reactor not have enough power to use?"

Before Zhang Zhaozhong could speak, Chief Designer Bai Yannian on the side had already shaken his head and spoken.

"How could it run out?"

"The power generation capacity of one super-large ship-borne reactor is enough to supply the peak electricity usage of more than 100 Magic Cities!"

"It's just that these energy weapons probably can't use it all!"

Zhang Zhaozhong nodded with a smile.

"Chief Designer Bai is right!"

"The electricity generated daily is all concentrated and stored by our superconducting energy storage modules!"

"Specially supplied to the main ship cannon of our Luan-niao Aerospace Mothership!"

"The Planetary Bombardment Cannon!!!"

Zhang Zhaozhong raised his right hand and pointed to the huge circular ring device located at the bottom of the bow.

Everyone followed the direction of his finger and stared blankly at the giant ring device, estimating the scale of how big this ring really was.

"Commander-in-Chief Yun, times have changed!"

"Entering the interstellar era, how can the definition of large-scale strategic weapons of mass destruction still follow the standards of the old era?"

Before everyone could figure it out, Zhang Zhaozhong, filled with excitement and pride, raised his voice and said heroically.

"Respected leaders!"

"Caliber is justice!"

"Range is truth!"

"I wonder what level of justice this 52.8-meter diameter cannon caliber counts as?"

"A space-based strategic weapon that can blast the Eagle Nation's Black Palace into a hundred-meter-deep crater from orbital space in just a few seconds!"

"What level of justice does that count as?"
