The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons

Li Xingchun nodded and said:

"It will definitely be robbed, but it will not be robbed explicitly, and the star sea lords who set the rules will not allow it, but this super consortium with the support of the army lord has countless ways to snatch your victory away within the scope of the rules. .”

After a pause, he said to Li Qing in a warning tone:

"Although you have our support, don't be careless. What you have now is too tempting, because you have the opportunity to integrate the eight life planets in this star field, and the potential is very great. This is too attractive to them. They Those who dare not come hard will definitely infiltrate through various methods, so we must guard against it.”

Li Qing nodded seriously:

"I see."

"It's good to know that the most important thing for you now is to strengthen your own strength. Some time ago, the old patriarch visited many of his old friends and gathered a whole set of weapon mother chips for you, including a set of gigabit-class orbital main guns for battleships. But most of the levels are not high, you can quickly upgrade by consuming civilization points."

"Don't be reluctant to be civilized, spend what you need, what you lack now is time."

Li Qing nodded again and again to express his understanding.

Soon a small metal box was opened, and inside was a series of mother chips.

From laser cannons to electromagnetic guns, to close-in defense systems including kinetic energy and energy, two kinds of missiles, and a set of space fighter mother chips, as well as energy shields and nano armor, as well as various warship reactors, jump engines, thrusters , sensors, combat computers and more.

The only fly in the ointment is that there are all conventional sets, except for the mother chip of the battleship.

"The mother chip of the battleship is too rare, and the old patriarch can search all the old friends. I'm afraid you need to gather it yourself, or ask after a while."

Li Qing put away the pile of mother chips contentedly, and said:

"Let's go to the outside market first to have a look. After a while, I'll go to the major auction houses in Shanhaiguan to see if I can buy it."

Li Xingchun nodded:

"The family will also pay attention."

Then they chatted for a while, and he asked about the situation of the Baji Consortium and some things related to the default unspoken rules.

In fact, there is no need to understand these during the ten-year development period. Everyone must abide by the ten-year development protection period. Even if the Baji Consortium is fully prepared, it will have to wait until the ten-year period expires before doing anything. Otherwise, it will provoke you Star Sea Lords who set the rules. , will definitely attract punishment.

But he couldn't wait until ten years later to ask, and now he had to ask clearly so that he could deal with it.

An hour later, Li Qing sent his father away, and then turned around and sent the pile of mother chips into the palm of the universe, so that several star killers and scientists in the Academy of Sciences worked overtime to upgrade.

The things are already there, with the efficiency of the Servant of Light and the Negative Star plus a large consumption of civilization points, it will soon be upgraded to level five, and the escort ship will be able to leave the factory at full combat power.

"I'll go back to Shanhaiguan in half a month to see if I can buy a battleship mother chip."

Li Qing made a decision.

Next, he began to make arrangements for going out. First, he added a group of cruiser engineers to fill the gap left by turning all cruiser engineers into chief escort engineers.

The chief engineer of the cruiser is not as difficult to recruit as the chief engineer of the battleship. There are even many Orbs, who can easily fill the previous gap and have a full 500 cruiser construction queues.

Then, discuss the security of the territory with the two sisters Yu Yuefei and Yu Yueyao, and carefully investigate possible problems.

After the investigation, they all agreed that the next possible problems in the territory, apart from the price problem, are most likely to be those player teams active near the territory and the Orb people.

If there is support and incitement from outsiders, it is not impossible to make things big.

For example, they persuaded some of the people in power among the Orb people, promised to fight for independence for them at the Human Council of Elders, and returned the Garan Star to them, which is very likely to persuade some Orb people.

After all, he has only turned the Orb people Noel and Quierta into servants of light, and the others have not been turned into, so they cannot guarantee absolute loyalty.

With this in mind, Li Qing was not stingy, and spent a full 50 points of civilization in exchange for 50 places of Servants of Light, and then selected 30 relatively outstanding elites from the Orb people to give them the status of Servants of Light .

It is not the original high-level people. During the years of conquest, the Orb people have experienced unprecedented chaos. The internal elite class has almost been reshuffled. There are not many original high-level people left, and most of the rest are obedient new classes.

This is also a necessary means after the recent conquest, and it borrowed the hands of Noel and Cuerta, coupled with the cooperation of the Lord's Mansion, there was no big disturbance.

But it turns out that those elites who have lost their power and status will inevitably be dissatisfied. They have accumulated a lot of prestige among the Orb clan over the years, and they may cause trouble.

So 30 of the 50 places are for the newly promoted elites, and the other 20 places are used to win over those frustrated, or some big rebel leaders.

Anyway, it's just a sentence, try to reduce the rebels, and minimize the Orb people who are dissatisfied with the Lord's Mansion.

Then, with this group of ruling elites, rebels, and some highly prestigious civilian teams as the core, all the voices of the entire Orb people were integrated, and this vassal race was completely brought under control.

There may still be some fish that slipped through the net, but as long as the mastery of the territory is ensured and all resistance is snuffed out in the bud, no one will be able to use this to cause trouble.

The prerequisite for them to do something is to support a group with a certain support rate among the Orbs. It is meaningless if it is just some small organizations that can be destroyed at any time.

After attuning all the servants of light, the next step is to operate slowly, and he doesn't need to pay attention to it later.

As for those player groups, there is no good way to do this. They can only respond to changes without change, collect more information among the players, and be wary of those forces that suddenly become stronger in a short period of time.

But the most important thing is to strengthen one's own strength and ensure that one has the strength to crush all beings.

As long as all of them can't beat themselves together, no matter how many problems there are, it won't be a problem.

Li Qing said that it was not a big problem. When he was about to leave, he dispatched a total of 520 battleships, 3,000 cruisers, 9,000 destroyers, and 36,000 frigates from the palm universe.

All are warships equipped with weapons and accessories, and they only need to be equipped with a crew to serve in battle.

With this batch of warships, the territory now has 892 battleships, about 4,500 cruisers, about 12,000 destroyers, 37,000 frigates, and a flagship aircraft carrier and a fearless flagship in addition to the Quierta Division. , and a Titan super flag.

This combat strength, when calculated comprehensively, is already comparable to ordinary brigades. Under Chu Yuan's command, it is not a problem to defeat two field divisions head-on.

His talent is too powerful, up to 1,000 shield armor regeneration, to ensure the indescribable survivability of the boat on the battlefield, as long as it is not instantly killed on the spot, it can persist forever.

As long as your own battle damage is small enough and the enemy's battle damage is large enough, the balance of victory and defeat will slowly change until you win.

And this is only half a year's production, and there are still two or three years to develop. During this period, more shipbuilders will be obtained to expand production, and the strength will only become stronger.

It is worth mentioning that the old patriarch also prepared a large number of shipbuilding engineers for him, but they did not send them over. Instead, they were all concentrated in Shanhaiguan, and they could be received directly when he went down there.

I heard that there is a flagship chief engineer, forty-seven battleship engineers, and two hundred cruiser chief engineers. Destroyer and frigate engineers are very common and easy to recruit, but they did not deliberately prepare.

This is more than Li Qing's chief engineers. Forty-seven battleship chief engineers can preside over the construction of 470 battleships, and 200 cruiser chief engineers can preside over the construction of 2,000 cruisers.

After a whole night of gut-wrenching battles with his wife, Yu Yuefei, they went out the next day.

Yu Yuefei watched him leave reluctantly, without complaining, she knew very well that the present efforts were related to their future, and now was not the time for their love.

Li Qing didn't pass by the isolated star field this time, and directly leaped across the area of ​​the isolation interference zone, but the landing point was not the same road as last time, but a different place. He was going to go west on the last road. Some, go back to another border province, so as not to run into people from the Sanhua Trading Group again.

I'm not afraid. After talking with my father before, I realized that I was bluffed by the people from Sanhua Trading Company.

They were just putting on a show at the time, how could any chamber of commerce dare to arrest a lord of the Imperial Senate? The arrest at that time was absolutely fake, and it was just shown to him, it couldn't be true.

If you really want to recruit a member of the Imperial Senate, you must go through the resolution of the Senate, which will take a long process.

It's just that he has little knowledge, doesn't understand, and was bluffed.

For this reason, Li Xingchun gave him a good introduction to a series of rights and benefits about his status as a lord, and even a series of rights, benefits, and obligations after he is promoted to a military lord in the future, so that he can be mentally prepared early and stop eating such things Dumb loss.

Changing another route is not just about avoiding the Sanhua Trading Company, but mainly because I want to take another turn in the Zutar star field to see if I can find other life planets.

The star field occupied by the three civilizations in the area of ​​the Shata United Empire, the star field occupied by the outpost base, and the star field on the southward transfer base account for one-tenth of the Zutar star field. No, nine out of ten star fields are still in the unexplored stage. There is no reason why there are no living planets in such a huge star field.

Although due to the influence of the nebula, the probability of birthing a planet in the Zutar star field is much lower than that of other star fields not covered by nebula, but this low is only relative.

Eight of them can be found in the star field of the United Empire of Shata, and there will definitely be in other places.

For example, the original home planet of the extinct Hull people is located in the northwest of the former expeditionary army headquarters, which shows that there must be other planets of life in the Zutar star field, but the number is too small and too scattered.

In addition, the influence of the nebula is too great, and ordinary explorers cannot enter, which leads to the fact that most of the planets have not been discovered.

After two consecutive jumps, they have already deviated from the previous route and entered an unknown star field. This time, they are not in such a hurry as last time, and have enough time to wander around.

He kept the distance of each next jump at about 50 light years, jumping around aimlessly, looking for possible traces of civilization.

Time passed day by day, and half a month passed before I knew it, and I was far away from the starry sky that was probably three or four thousand light-years away from Jialan Ling. This day was another ordinary transition, and the battleship appeared on the edge of the gravitational well of a black hole galaxy , the sensor turned on, and immediately scanned for an anomaly less than five thousand kilometers away from the battleship.

The battleship quickly approached and found that it was a pile of wreckage of warships. To his surprise, the wreckage was human warships, small in scale, but belonging to two different camps, both of which were human camps.

"civil war?"

From the information left on the wreckage, it can be inferred that not long ago, two human fleets met and fought here, and then left the pile of wreckage to retreat.

"and many more!"

Suddenly, a mark on a piece of debris in one of the cruiser wreckages caught Li Qing's attention:

"Sanhua Trading Company?"

He knows this sign turned into ashes.

"Why are they everywhere?"

Li Qing hesitated for a moment, and decided to go over to have a look.

The route they left was deduced from the position of the wreckage of the battleship, and the battleship flew in one of the directions.

It took two days before he found a hyperspace channel located at the edge of the galaxy's gravity well, entered it through the wormhole, and came out from the wormhole at the other end of the hyperspace channel after more than half an hour. Old male voice:

"To His Excellency Li Qing, Lord of Canaan, the Imperial Senate Assembly will be held in a week's time. Please make preparations in advance, Your Excellency Li Qing."

Li Qing froze for a moment, but his voice had disappeared.

"What's the big deal that happened, and the senate meeting needs to be held?"

If this inexplicable voice appeared in the past, he would have been surprised, but not now. His father Li Xingchun had already told him that the Imperial Senate was communicating with them through an artifact of human civilization.

This is an artifact of civilization belonging to mankind, and it is also a super treasure. It is similar to the network that can communicate with all members of the Senate. As long as you are in the Milky Way, you can communicate no matter how far you go.

This artifact of civilization is not privately owned. It is usually held by the Supreme Council composed of fourteen Star Sea Lords in turn. It will not be used at ordinary times. It will only be opened when there is a major event in the United Empire of Mankind that requires the opening of the Senate Assembly, and Notify all members of the Senate one week in advance to prepare, and then everyone's consciousness will be pulled into a virtual world.

With this, it is possible to gather all the star sea lords who are all over the empire, or outside the empire, or even recruited by the guardians of the higher civilization Servanti in the Milky Way.

With this, no matter what major events happen to the United Empire of Mankind, they will be informed immediately.

Also with this, in times of war, all forces of the United Human Empire can be coordinated to meet the enemy, and the power of the entire civilization can be maximized.
