Traveling through the infinite wasteland

It is now the end of March. By the end of this year, the benefits brought by these industries will reach 9 billion, which is almost the same as the total benefit of those forces from illegal business before the unification of Shengyuan Star Territory! And there will be more in the future!

Of course, Ye Qingyuan's main concern at the moment is still on the expansion of military power!

Gathering all the remaining warships in the star field, according to his standards, at least 70% of the junk must be recycled and scrapped! There are less than 5,000 ships that can meet the standard!

He discussed it with his men and decided to send someone to Kudler in the Flame Dragon Star Territory to buy it. Even if the price was very low, there was no need to worry about it for now. One day they would spit it out! The other thing is to ask Luo Qingyue to contact several local chambers of commerce and buy some from them! Of course, all this is still in the name of Gilad!

His goal is to build a fleet with a size of 30,000 and a mobile force of not less than 25,000 in the current star segment. In the eyes of several surrounding star regions, this is already a powerful force!

However, regarding the issue of ship operators, Li Maci provided some for him; now that he had a site, he also decided to select them locally! Link is currently in charge of this matter. Every month, he will select a number of boys and girls with good qualifications from various planets and perform fifth-level DNA awakening surgeries on them for free!

The first batch of one million people has been selected. After surgery, about 5,000 people showed signs of superpower activation and were sent to the newly established military academy to study and be incorporated into the superpower corps in the future; most of the remaining people were sent to The military camp conducts training in warship operations.

As for the awakened ones, when he left the empire, he brought about 5,000 awakened ones, most of them clones. There are also 10,000 people assisted by the Cangling Commando! In addition to the more than 10,000 people received from those forces, after careful review, about 8,000 people were selected to join the ranks of the supernatural force!

Once various measures are finalized, they will be implemented in an orderly manner. Leng Zhuo personally supervises the entire planning process. Once a problem is discovered, he will immediately study countermeasures and make timely improvements!

In the interstellar era, with many high-tech aids, managing such a star field is not as difficult as it may seem! What's more, there are top-grade wise men in charge of the entire plan. At least until we conquer fifty star regions, we don’t have to worry about any problems in this regard!

In addition to promoting relatively moderate policies to quickly win over people's hearts. Leng Zhuo also suggested recruiting some local people to serve as middle- and lower-level administrative officials. If they perform well and have no problem, they will get the opportunity to be promoted when the territory becomes larger in the future. Ye Qingyuan readily agreed.

This is what it should be. From now on, these people are almost his people, and of course they should be treated kindly.

A few days later, Hu Mu and Randall, who were ordered to go to the Yanlong Star Territory to purchase warships, sent back a message.

"'Xiting' model space battleship, this seems to be the technical standard of the Gnaslok Empire twenty years ago! It actually requires 29,000 crystal cores for one ship?" Looking at the information on the display, Ye Qingyuan said angrily:

"Although it is a new ship that has just left the factory, the price is too deceptive, right? There is no after-sales service; the supporting weapons, ammunition, and energy blocks are surprisingly expensive, and there is no discount at all; and there are no wearing parts. Any offer! This is a money grab!"

There was a long list listed on the display, including quotes for various types of warships for sale, as well as mechas, space fighters, small mobile field military bases, and various large spaceships for special purposes.

There are quite a few varieties of powerful main battle troops. Although not all are complete, 70% to 80% of the items are still available! It's a pity that the most advanced models among them are all technologies from twenty years ago!

However, he really doesn't have many choices at the moment! If we get the most advanced warships stored in the empire, they will attract the attention of those big forces as soon as they are deployed, and there will be no more unnecessary troubles from now on! The gain outweighs the loss!

At least you have to wait until your own strength exceeds Kudler's level before you can take out those things. Even if someone pays attention at that time, his combat power is enough, and any force that wants to take advantage of it must think twice!

Liu Xiangyun advised: "Lord, the situation is different now, so what if I tolerate him for a while? Anyway, I will get it back sooner or later!"

"I understand, you are right! We will get it back eventually!" Ye Qingyuan said suddenly.

A few days later, Hu Mu and Randall returned to the Shengyuan Star Territory with fifteen thousand battleships. The old ghost is only willing to sell so much, and they have no choice.

The technology of these warships is not too advanced. The ultimate caliber of the main gun is only 1,800 mm. Compared with the "Qinghai" warships used before, it is not worth mentioning! Not to mention compared with the "Xilong" product of the Imperial Guards Corps!

Fortunately, however, this batch of warships were all newly built, and their power was acceptable, so he temporarily put his mind down.

Luo Qingyue got him nearly 10,000 warships through the Chamber of Commerce, all with similar technical levels. Adding in the number of originally retained fleets, the establishment of 30,000 ships was basically complete!

With the battleship and the people, the next step is to step up the training and practice to transform the combat effectiveness as soon as possible!

To build a powerful fleet, the human, financial and material resources consumed are by no means a small number! The cost of the battleship itself is only part of it, not even the bulk.

What really costs money is the fees for the selection and training of various ship operators, the fees for the construction and maintenance of warship bases, the fees for various logistic support facilities, and the fees for frequent exercises. The maintenance of the battleship itself is also a surprising cost!

That's fine in normal times, but if there's a war and the fleet launches a large-scale attack, the loss of various resources will go up! Shipborne weapons and ammunition, energy blocks, food, medical drugs, replacement of wearing parts, etc.

To maintain their normal combat losses, these 30,000 warships require various materials worth up to 250 million crystal cores every month! If there is a big battle and the fleet suffers heavy casualties, the cost will have to go up!

Fortunately, the Shengyuan Star Territory originally had an absolute military industry foundation. After large-scale investment and transformation, most of the logistics materials can be produced by themselves, while a small number are supplied through external chambers of commerce. There won’t be any problems for at least half a year!

There are currently three sources of ship operators. One is from the Clone Commando Organization. This group of soldiers has the highest quality. They have undergone long-term secret training by the Commando Organization in advance, and they can be competent in their respective roles after boarding the ship. position.

The second is that they come from the nine previous forces. This group of people is mixed, and must undergo strict review. Most of the remaining personnel must undergo systematic training again to meet the requirements.

The third is to select from the civilian star strata on various planets. The vast majority of this batch of people have not experienced DNA awakening of second level or above, and have not been exposed to any knowledge related to battleship operation. So the training is extremely difficult!

However, this is an inevitable process. As a qualified monarch, he must cultivate his own power! It is undoubtedly the most appropriate to select and train from among your own people! It’s impossible to rely on others for everything, right?

Ye Qingyuan has issued an order that all young people who are willing to join the army and pass the preliminary assessment can get the opportunity to awaken second-grade DNA for free. After participating in an absolute number of battles, you can get the opportunity to awaken third-level DNA. If you have enough military exploits, fifth-level DNA awakening can also be opened to them for free!

If you are unfortunately killed in battle or become disabled, in addition to the due pension, your immediate family members can also receive a third-level DNA awakening quota for free!

Of course, this is different from those free DNA awakenings conducted for the purpose of selecting awakened ones! Those candidates were all children between the ages of ten and fifteen. Before the surgery, they all signed a contract with their parents, agreeing that their children would serve the strategic command for life regardless of whether they had supernatural powers! Only those who have achieved sufficient military exploits will be allowed to retire!

If these adults who join the army are willing to sign a contract with the Strategic Command and agree to serve the Strategic Command for life, they will also receive the treatment of fifth-grade DNA awakening in one step!

Such a policy can be described as a great preferential treatment! Not to mention that such a place is impossible, even those big countries don't have such generous treatment!

With Ye Qingyuan's current net worth, the cost of implementing such a policy is not high and is completely affordable! It can also inspire soldiers to fight to the death, so why not?

The physical strength, reaction speed, and ability to deal with complex problems of soldiers who have been awakened by fifth-level DNA are far beyond that of ordinary soldiers! Moreover, after being injured, because of his excellent physical fitness, the probability of surviving and fully recovering is far better than that of ordinary people! This is undoubtedly a huge improvement to the fleet's morale and combat capabilities!

This policy alone caused the door of the Recruitment Office of the Strategic Command to be crowded by the influx of young people!

Coupled with the industrial upgrading and product optimization project implemented simultaneously, it has brought a large number of employment opportunities to the private sector! As long as you have sound limbs and a general education, you can get a job with a good salary, and you don't have to worry about being exploited by those evil forces in the past!

The reputation of the Meerkat Star Thieves suddenly rose to an unprecedented height! The name of the new commander Ye Qingyuan began to spread throughout the streets! With the support of the people gathered, many policies will become easier to implement!

A month later, part of the fleet's running-in training had reached the standard, and Ye Qingyuan began to think about the next strategy plan that should be implemented!

On this day, Li Kai, who was still in the empire, sent another batch of manpower and supplies, and reported certain events inside and outside the empire, as well as in the star sea world.

At the dinner table, Luo Qingyue informed Ye Qingyuan of the news from the country:

"After more than two months of suppression, the southern border of the empire has been generally pacified! With the permission of His Majesty the Emperor, in addition to leaving some troops to guard the newly occupied areas, the main army will return to the court soon! Of course, due to the arrangements that have been made in advance , this batch of people like me will stay and garrison locally! Therefore, we don’t have to worry about being discovered by the empire’s senior officials for the time being!”

"The only thing you can worry about is that as the provincial governor, you must activate the cross-system remote communication system once a month to report your work face-to-face to His Majesty! In the past, you could excuse yourself from the tight war and failed to fulfill this obligation! Now it is More than two months have passed, and it will soon be time for the third work report! I don’t know how you plan to report it? "

"Now that things have happened, there's no need to worry about this, right? Since we already have our own foundation, why should we bother with that emperor?" Leng Zhuo said indifferently.

Ye Qingyuan looked at her and sighed softly in his heart. This royal concubine's resentment towards the emperor was not ordinary! No wonder she would rather take a huge risk and run away from home than return to that gorgeous prison in the imperial capital!

In fact, isn’t that true for me? It's better to make up your mind as soon as possible, maybe sooner or later you will end up like her! And the situation is even worse than hers!

However, there is really no way to avoid this debriefing question! The other thing is, if I let His Majesty's dove go three times in a row, then with Fang Xu's temperament, even if he favors me, he will be intolerable, and he will be severely reprimanded, or even given a substantial punishment!

"Speaking of which, I have to remind you, Your Royal Highness, what are your plans?" Luo Qingyue said with some worry, "This time the main army of the empire returns to the court, you will definitely go back with us! If Marshal Wang Yuexiang It’s a huge responsibility to find out that the guy in the fleet is a Xibei guy!”

"Evaluate, estimate! An imperial Duke, the former director of the supernatural corps, the governor of Shiloh Province, an important imperial official with the rank of marshal has disappeared for no apparent reason, a semi-divine great wise man, and the extremely noble royal concubine. He disappeared without any explanation! If this news spreads, what kind of negative impact will it have?"

"The face of the empire, the face of His Majesty the Emperor, will be gone! At that time, if the royal family sends strong men to pursue it at all costs, it will not be good news for us! Even your family race will be affected. Implicated!”

Leng Zhuo said calmly: "Don't worry, the emperor will probably be angry at losing an important minister of the empire, but he will never take me to heart! With his virtue... hum!"

Qin Yuanyuan looked at her teacher helplessly, not knowing what to say for a moment. Yun Xinyao correctly remained silent, while Zhou Yiwei looked like he was watching the excitement, fearing that the world would not be in chaos!

"Okay! Let's not talk about this for now!" Ye Qingyuan said, "If there is any other news, let me tell you about it!"

Luo Qing nodded slightly and went to Shuyuan www.zhaoｓhuyuａ.com to change the topic and said: "The Yun family is still married to the Prime Minister! Cheng Guiyun picked a girl from his descendants. , adopted him as his own child, and then married that old gangster!"

"Furthermore, the Yun Family Venerable Group originally planned to depose him, but later it was unclear what method he used. He also attracted strong foreign aid, and with the help of the Prime Minister, the position of the head of the family is still firmly controlled by him. Stay!"

"What foreign aid? Can you find out?" Ye Qingyuan couldn't help but be surprised. He was quite surprised that this old dog could hold on until now.

"Maybe they are Miriam people, but we don't know the details! We can only make a rough guess through inference!" she said.

Ye Qingyuan thought about it and said disapprovingly: "It's okay, just let him live for a while! One day, I will settle the accounts with him personally!"

"One last thing..." Luo Qingyue stopped and stared at him deeply for a few times before continuing: "Her Royal Highness the Princess disappeared two months ago!"

"Missing? Why?" he asked with some confusion. (To be continued.)
