As a force that was established, grew up, and declined with the Forward Fortress, the military hopes that the ground commandos can accompany the Forward Fortress to the end until it is completely repaired.

Lu Zhenbang didn't want to accept this task. They were not the garrison troops of the Forward Fortress. Why should they accompany it to the end? He suspected that it was because the military didn't know how to arrange their organization, so they thought of this method to delay.

Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to try to move the troops' base to a more prosperous place, so that they don't have to be half-dead like now.

It was not until the military's commissioner came to the assault ship and had a deep talk with Lu Zhenbang that he reluctantly agreed. As for what the military's commissioner talked about with Lu Zhenbang, Zhang Qifan didn't know.

In the next period of time, the ground commandos will move to the Ring Sun Industrial Zone with the Forward Fortress until the fortress is completely repaired.

The Ring Sun Industrial Zone is a cluster of artificial buildings located between Mercury and the Sun, consisting of countless large ships, construction platforms, and space creations.

The energy-intensive industries in the entire solar system are concentrated here.

Industrial production requires huge amounts of energy and raw materials. Where is the most abundant energy? Of course, it is the stars that radiate endless heat and light all the time. It is like a huge nuclear fusion engine hanging in the void.

After humans entered the space age, energy consumption has increased exponentially, and traditional energy production methods can no longer meet the huge consumption of humans.

In order to obtain cheap, efficient, safe, clean, and inexhaustible energy, humans have set their sights on stars.

Solar energy is not a new energy source. Its biggest advantage is that it is free.

But on Earth, because of the shielding of the atmosphere. The speed of obtaining solar energy is very slow. So humans took the simplest and crudest way to move the energy factory into space.

Too far from the star? Then move it next to the sun.

So the energy production factory with ships as the main body was moved to the current location in one go, becoming the closest man-made object to the sun.

If technology allows. Energy factories can't wait to be built on the surface of the sun. The reason why it stays at this distance is that the mass of the solar sail can only withstand the light and heat at this distance.

The spacecraft was parked and the solar sail was spread. One solar sail was not enough, so two were built. Two were not enough, so three were built. With this simple and crude method, the merchants of the energy factory used solar sails to cover a void of millions of kilometers.

The energy blocks produced continuously were transported to every corner of the solar system by large cargo ships, providing cheap and efficient energy for humans.

Today's human society. Can provide the most basic security for everyone, and cheap energy has made an indelible contribution.

The most energy-consuming energy factory first took root in this area. Then came the high-energy-consuming smelting, shipbuilding, IT and other industries.

A large star network server. The energy consumed in one day is enough for the global human beings in the Earth era to use for one month. Such a server can only be powered by solar energy.

The smelting industry has taken root here, so should the manufacturing industry follow suit? The shipyard has taken root here, so should the supporting factories follow suit?

As for the water consumed by industrial production, it can be solved through a circulation system.

And these factories or manufacturing platforms. It can directly stop behind the solar sail and use the solar sail to block the light and heat of the star.

After hundreds of years of development, the Circumsolar Industrial Zone has become a gathering belt for the solar system industry. Almost all industrial products are produced here and transported to the major planets and settlements in the solar system.

Only in this place. There are enough manpower and equipment to repair the Forward Fortress.

After being towed by more than a hundred tugboats for forty days, the Forward Fortress was finally towed to the Circumsolar Industrial Zone.

From the porthole of the spacecraft, Zhang Qifan saw a large black shadow appear in the light and shadow of the sun. As the distance approached, the shadow became larger, wider, and longer, and finally covered the entire sun.

Only a small amount of light came through the gaps in the shadows, illuminating the outlines of these shadows, which were naturally huge solar sails like the sky.

In the shadow of the solar sail, huge spaceships, platforms, docks, factories, artificial celestial bodies, etc. are closely docked together. The hollow pipes that connect these man-made objects like roads connect them together, forming a huge space building complex that looks like one body.

The originally huge Forward Fortress immediately looks very small when it comes to these buildings, like a small sampan next to a 10,000-ton ship.

Compared with the solar sail that covers the sky, even the sampan can't be made. The solar sail that stretches for millions of kilometers is like a vast ocean. Whether it is the Forward Fortress or the industrial zone building complex, they are just small fish in the ocean.

At the edge of the solar sail, Zhang Qifan saw a row of huge space ranches.

Before the disaster of the Forward Fortress, Zhang Qifan originally planned to build a raw meat breeding factory to make money, so he studied the information of space ranches in detail.

From the outside, that row of space ranches looks like a cylindrical can, and the diameter of the bottom is larger than that of the Forward Fortress.

Each pasture has dozens or hundreds of floors, and it rotates around the central axis, simulating gravity inside through rotation.

Each floor is planted with a large amount of grass and genetically modified livestock.

Both bottom surfaces of the cylindrical pasture are filter glass with controllable transparency, which can adjust the light transmittance and filter harmful rays, so that the livestock inside can receive natural light.

Next to the space pasture is a row of space farms. The farm is in the shape of a cube and does not need to provide gravity, so it does not need to rotate.

It is made of filter glass throughout, and inside are pieces, layers, and pieces of cultivation boards.

These cultivation boards can automatically adjust the spacing, direction, and quality according to the different crops planted. They can also automatically sow, sprinkle water, harvest, etc.

The Sun Ring Industrial Zone has a population of one billion, and all the food they consume daily is grown by these pastures and farms. There is even excess frozen meat and vacuum-packed vegetables shipped out.

This is the highest achievement of human industrial civilization, and this is the source of human power.

All of this made Zhang Qifan's heart surge, and an idea involuntarily came to his mind that if a war breaks out, this place must be destroyed first.

At this moment, a communication came from the bridge: "Hey, country bumpkins, welcome to the civilized world."
