The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons

"Buzz!"

A circle of faint ripples swayed, and sitting in front of the bridge command chair, one could clearly see the huge ion flames erupting from the tail of a battleship with a length of more than 1,500 meters several kilometers away, and the heavy battleship slowly Started, and the surrounding escort warships also started, slowly sailing into the star sea.

Such a huge fleet, more than 2,000 warships, and a super fleet of 2,000 to 3,000 large super-large cargo ships, a destroyer is extremely small in it.

The entire fleet is centered on the fleet headed by fourteen battleships, located at the forefront of the merchant fleet, and several other powerful fleets are divided into the left and right wings, and the rear. Small teams like Li Lie and the others usually follow Front, rear, left, and right positions of the fleet.

They were assigned positions early on, located at the right rear of the fleet, and were coordinated by the fleet commanded by Wang Yanqing, the direct descendant of the Danyang Wang family, on the right.

The departure of the huge fleet has always been very slow. Thousands of ships set off. It took more than two hours from the time the first battleship set sail until the last fleet caught up.

Even the sub-light speed is the first fleet to start first, set off early, and wait until it arrives at the predetermined location and sends back a signal, the second fleet will start to set off.

However, the sub-light speed will only be in the current galaxy, and when they leave this galaxy, they will use the jump engine to jump directly.

When the big troops were on the road, Li Qing set the battleship to follow state, and then told Li Lie to change the skills in the brain slot into shipbuilding-related skills, return to the universe in the palm, and directly appeared in the dock of the high-dimensional fortress to start shipbuilding .

Anyway, nothing will happen in the early stage. Now the galaxy they are in is in a low-security area, and the surrounding galaxy has been swept back and forth by the fleet of the transit base for an unknown number of times.

There must be wild monsters, but they are all ordinary pirate ships that are not in the climate, like that kind of large anomaly, or large pirate fleets that have been wiped out long ago.

Wild monsters also have IQ. Seeing such a large fleet, they ran away early.

Although the materials in the warehouse are going to be sold after arriving at the outpost, before that, they can't be idle for a few months on the road, and they can build some ships if they have nothing to do. Even if they have practiced their skills, the finished ships can be sold.

Right now, the outpost is a waste of everything. There is a shortage of warships. It can be said that you need as much as you have. No matter how many things you bring over, you can easily sell them. It’s just a matter of earning more or less.

There are now ten teams of naval architects and senior naval architects in the dock, who need to pay a salary of up to 21 million a month, which cannot be idle.

In the studio, Li Qing skillfully took out the blueprints of the frigate, that is, placed a chip in the decoder, and then extracted these blueprints.

More than forty blank chips are inserted on the side of the decoder, and the extracted data are transferred to different blank chips according to different modules and accessories.

These chips are then handed over to senior shipbuilding engineers to let them understand the contents of these chips, and then ordinary shipbuilding engineers are arranged to build these accessories and modules.

After the ten frigate blueprints are all decoded and extracted, and the arrangements are made, the next step is to work under the supervision of his subordinates. He will basically have nothing to do for the next half a month, except for the final assembly of the warship.

Ten times the experience and super high innate attributes made him build a frigate equivalent to building twenty or thirty frigates. The accumulated experience is extremely rich and the upgrade speed is very fast.

His current series of shipbuilding skill levels have all reached LV7, and a few LV6 are not far from upgrading. Normally, it is impossible to upgrade to this step without building a few hundred frigates.

This speed, this efficiency, if those shipbuilding players know about it, they will probably die of envy.

After finishing all this, he went to the warehouse area again, where a new base was already being built, and the materials were moved up through the warehouse facilities, but there was no one directing it, and the effect was mediocre.

After not staying in the palm universe for long, he returned to the material universe, took out the skill chip in the brain slot, and replaced it with command-related skills and some management-related skills.

This is also prepared for the future. He doesn't expect these management skills to be advanced. He just hangs them in his brain when he is free. Commanding the interior of the battleship is also considered management, and he will have some experience.

In fact, there was nothing else to do next. He sat down again in the command chair and applied to join the team channel. After entering, eleven light curtain windows popped up in front of him, and he had exactly twelve. At this time, some member windows were empty, and some I don't know what they are doing, a few of them are chatting, but it seems that they are chatting privately, and he can't hear what they are talking about without joining the private chat channel.

At this time, Li Lie was chatting with Li Qi for some unknown reason. Seeing that he also joined the group chat, he pulled him into the small private chat channel, and said to him:

"You came at the right time. I just received the mission list from the headquarters. After leaving this galaxy for a while, we will start the leap. When we leave the low-security area, we need to arrange manpower for patrol and reconnaissance. Li and I He discussed it and planned to use the method of taking turns, all of us have it, two groups of two take turns to scout, one round every day."

Li Qing said with a smile:

"It's up to you to decide, I can do it."

"We have a total of twelve people here including you. Most of them have already formed a team. There are still a few who have not formed a team. You can invite someone to temporarily form a team."

After speaking, he received a roster. There were already four teams on it, and now there are still four people who can form two teams.

There are six groups in total, which is equivalent to six days and one day, which is not too frequent.

Except for the three men and one woman he had left, he glanced at them and randomly chose a man named Li Min.

For no other reason, I just think this name is pleasing to the ear.

After sending the invitation to form a team, Li Min responded quickly, and the two started a private chat in the channel.

Li Min's age was the same as Li Qing's. He was a pioneer of this generation. He was a handsome young man. Li Qing remembered that he had never seen him before, so he must have been pulled over by Li Lie later.

They met for the first time and were unfamiliar, and he joined them temporarily, and he hadn't even confirmed joining their team. Naturally, there was nothing to talk about, so he briefly talked about some things about forming a team for patrol and reconnaissance, and then they went their own way.

Their task is to patrol within a million kilometers to the right of the large fleet to detect possible enemies.

Although this is unlikely.

According to Li Lie, this trip will not be too dangerous. After all, such a large fleet cannot be eaten by ordinary forces. There are only a few targets who can eat them. It is impossible not to expose them if they want to eat them. Once exposed, the consequences Very serious.

You must know that the person in charge of this caravan is Yu Yuefei, a direct descendant of the Yu family, the Imperial Expeditionary Force, the transit base and the outpost base are all presided over by the Yu family. What you have to face will only be the alien and pirate forces near the outpost.

Before departure, their communication was connected to a branch channel, which is the fleet's reconnaissance channel. All players performing reconnaissance missions must enter the channel. If any abnormality is found, report it as soon as possible. You have to make a routine report in the channel. If you fail to report after the set time, it will be regarded as a danger, and the fleet will respond immediately.

Li Qing and Li Min signed in to the channel respectively, and then the two destroyers that had left the fleet plunged into the sea of ​​stars.

More than ten kilometers away, two destroyers plunged into the sea of ​​stars and headed for the distance.

There are dozens of such teams, each going to different directions of the fleet.

The speed of the two destroyers slowed down when they were hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from the fleet. Li Qing said to Li Min in the channel:

"I'll go to the front, you go to the back, how about keeping a distance of no more than 10,000 kilometers?"

"Can."

The two side-by-side destroyers were separated, one left and one right.

"Keep an eye on the radar, and let me know if there is any abnormality."

Li Qing arranged tasks for his subordinates, especially the subordinates in charge of the radar sensor, while he himself was sitting on the command chair, with a light touch of his finger, the light curtain in front of him popped open, and after another series of operations, a huge page-shaped light curtain opened, The densely packed fonts and patterns on it are exposed, and there is a title on the top—Advanced Engineering Theory, and I am going to brush up my experience when I have time.

Some skills can be improved by experience through practice, but some theoretical skills can only be increased by studying various books, which cannot be tricked.

Li Qing felt it when he was in Jinmen before, and after returning to Jinmen, he spent a lot of money to buy a lot of related books, and he will read them when he has time to brush up his experience.

Books are not expensive. No matter the earth age or the new universe era, it is not difficult or expensive to obtain conventional knowledge or advanced knowledge. The main thing is whether you have the mind to read and whether you have the talent for reading.

Obviously, Li Qing, who has up to 32 points of memory, 36 points of intelligence, and 33 points of spirit, definitely has a talent for reading.

The innate attributes of normal people will not exceed 20 points, which means that the most intelligent human beings in theory will not have more than 20 innate attributes.

Just like Einstein, a historical top scientist, his innate attributes will not exceed 20 points.

But this is not to say that your innate memory, mind and spirit reaching 20 points can be compared with Einstein, that is far from comparable.

Maybe you are similar in terms of innate attributes, but if Einstein is placed now, he must be a super genius with orange legend or even golden mythical innate talent, and there may be more than one talent.

With the blessing of such a powerful innate talent, you are far beyond comparison.

Such a super scientist is definitely a treasure-level talent. Even if he was born in this era, he can become the top scientist of this era.

If any force can have super scientists of this level in their hands, it is not inevitable to develop the sixth generation of technology, but the absolute success rate is very high.

In terms of scientific research, Li Qing has not considered self-study, mainly because the coverage of science is too large. The three major systems of physics, biology, and engineering can be subdivided into a large number of branches, and each branch can contain several branches. Small branches, each branch contains a series of disciplines, combined, I am afraid that I have to learn hundreds of skills to satisfy one system, and the three systems add up to thousands of disciplines. It's over.

It doesn't help much to learn the key. Could it be that he did the research himself?

The best way is to recruit some excellent scientists.

However, good scientists are more difficult to recruit than captains or commanders. Really excellent scientists have long been recruited by big forces, and it is basically impossible for ordinary players to recruit them.

If you go to the major science academies in Jinmen to recruit now, you will find that all the researchers above the green name basically have their own masters, and they have already signed contracts early, and they will be picked up after graduation.

So now ordinary players want to obtain advanced researchers and scientists, there are only two conventional methods, one is prisoners of war, and the other is to cultivate them by themselves.

Go directly to middle school, spend a lot of money to find school sponsorship, and then you will get a screening opportunity to screen among existing students. If there are qualified students, you can start training.

Is it outrageous?

Yes, it is so outrageous now, there are too few high-end talents, and there are not enough points.

It is also because Li Qing's base has not yet been established, nor has the laboratory been established, and there is no demand. When he has the demand, it will be a headache.

There was nothing unusual in the first half of the day. He was so immersed in his studies that he didn't notice the passage of time. It wasn't until his subordinate brought a lunch that he realized that half a day had passed.

The food on board is very common. There are rice and pasta, steamed, fried and boiled, and there are plenty of ingredients, so you can eat without limit.

The crew on the battleship is the same as going to sea in ancient times. They often don’t land for several months. The psychological health of the crew is very important, and they must not be harsh in terms of food.

While eating, Li Qing called out the channel interface to check the situation all morning.

The channel is basically security information sent by different teams at regular intervals. Occasionally, a few discoveries are just ordinary wild monsters, and the two destroyers of the reconnaissance team can easily drive them away.
