As if it were an opening ceremony, the battle in the Southeast Star Sector soon spread to other places.

Now there is a fight not only in the east, but also in the north.

The 17,000 men of the 2nd Guards Regiment, which had been equipped, quickly completed the landing on Xarovin.

Because he didn't expect that Clown, who had been shrinking in the northern star sector, suddenly attacked, Bass could be said to be attacked on his back.

Xalovin is a strange planet.

This planet, located at the junction of the western and northern regions, has always been an underappreciated planet.

The barrenness, the harsh climate, and the strange folk customs have all made mankind lack interest here.

And the colonists of the other western star regions don't like this planet either.

Because this is a frozen planet where temperatures are always below zero.

Due to its remoteness from the stars, there are only four summers of the year, and the average summer temperature is only minus seven or eight degrees.

The rest of the time, it was icy bitter cold, and the coldest time was even about minus 80 degrees.

Therefore, there are not many colonists here, after all, a planet that has no output at all, all of which has to be imported, and there is nothing to create wealth.

So why did such a miserable planet attract Crown's attention instead?

Quite simply, although it is barren, it has a very large amount of resources--- ice!

Ice is something that can be made at will under the current technological conditions, so there has been no point in pioneering it here.

Except for mining companies looking for veins beneath the thick ice here, few people come here.

However, Clun had his ideas.

The thick crust of ice was a natural defense in itself, and after he occupied it, he quickly agreed with the military headquarters to move a mech factory here.

Keseda, the mecha factory originally on the Cellorne satellite, their original focus was a miniature mecha.

Seeing the role of the miniature mechs in the just-concluded campaign, Clun decided to create a new mechanized army.

Unlike the mechanized troops of ancient times, this unit was the first new type of army to be armed with a large number of miniature mechs.

Keseda, which was placed on the satellite of Celon, was too close to the capital and had a very poor geographical location, so it did not produce much, and at some point, it was almost on the verge of bankruptcy.

After all, the previous AI technology was not very good, and it once made the miniature mecha a dangerous good.

And now, more and more wars can see the benefits of this kind of equipment, not afraid of casualties, have a certain degree of armor, can carry some heavy weapons, have become the advantages of mecha.

This brought Keseda back to life, and suddenly became a sweet spot for all parties to scramble.

The previous production was completely incomplied, and in this month alone, they have received orders from the southern star sector, the eastern star sector, and even the western star sector!

Now, beneath this ice crust, a huge production center is being built, and even the electrolytic furnaces need to be cooled down the most easily due to the planet's temperatures.

The simplest mecha outer armor production line has already begun, and it has made Clun and the military department a lot of money.

As for Bass, he had no intention of taking it back at all.

Take it back? How stupid is that!

Not only did he have friction with the military department, but he also cut off his own financial route.

As the production line gets bigger and bigger, where do these people go to get materials? Why don't you buy it from Bertoluta nearby?

Moreover, seeing the benefits of miniature mechs, Buzz is also ready to buy some for "self-defense".

Neither inside nor out, he will make the stupid decision to snatch back Xaroven.

This is also the most important reason why Cloak dares to go straight ahead, and Bass even has a bit of acquiescence in it.

Unlike here, now that the Covenant has declared war, they won't give up just because of the defeat of both fleets.

But they are not stupid, they can't attack the main star, and the autumn wind on the channel is not a random attack?

During the period when Kirson suffered heavy losses and Samun's fleet did not arrive, the Nala people also made a fuss in the border passages.

Groups of five, groups of ten official pirate ships frequently appeared on the border, and even some resource planets close to the border were plundered.

Shasha's meaning is very clear, I want money, and I will rob you without me.

In fact, in the end, it was Barrett who made it up.

Her Majesty has emptied the old bottom of the Star Alliance, and she can't help but think of some way to do things.

And in the south, another kind of war is now going on, a trade war!

First, it cut off all trade routes with the Star Alliance, and then used the reason of war to extend its hand to many places.

The first to suffer was the Blue Bird Market in Bath.

I don't know why, but a huge market has also appeared in the new development zone in the southern star area.

This market, named Blazing Phoenix, is clearly going to work against the blue bird.

At first, Bass was unimpressed.

Since the bluebird has laid an incomparably vast network and trade routes, can it be shaken at will?

Not really.

But Barrett, of course, also has his own trump card.

Remember the network of tools that spread along with merchants everywhere?

After three months, this huge network finally blossomed and came to fruition.

All kinds of information are operated at high speed with Karma as the core, and the information channels are quickly integrated.

As the merchants of Yunchuan poured out, all kinds of commodities and all kinds of information flew to the southern star region like snowflakes.

Because of the huge wealth of the Star Alliance, the last thing Barrett lacks is money!

Hoarding goods and opening up markets, Barrett also started illegal trade.

The Blue Bird Market may still be the largest market for buying and selling people, but arms are not at all anymore.

Compared with Bath's left-handed buying and right-hand buying, one is limited by Mavisis, and the other is that he does not make it himself after all, and his profits are limited.

But Barrett is different, there are new hulls waiting to be outfitted on the Kluane slipway every day, is this the same as buying from someone else?

Although these people are sold to armed transport ships, or small ships such as submarine hunting, but the money of one destroyer can buy three submarine hunting submarines, so even the stupidest businessman or warlord has to consider this huge difference in cost performance.

Soon, the Blazing Phoenix trade network became a hot topic among merchants.

It's like I've never seen an exotic beauty in a bluebird, and I'm just an earth spor.

If you don't buy two transport ships in the Blazing Phoenix, you're a turtle that can be pirated at any time.

With some kind of deliberate direction, the ship business in the Southern Sector has brought great popularity and wealth.

This business soon drove other industries, such as rare goods and precious liquor, which were originally the main commodities of the Southern Star District, and quickly became a sought-after item in the new network.

Mr. Wang Hui naturally wakes up with a smile every day, and the most important thing he does every day is to see how much money he has earned today.

Why should you look at today? Because he can't calculate yesterday's money, he can only count how much income he has earned after opening his eyes just now.

is very popular, which is a direct portrayal of the current Southern Star Zone.

However, it is not completely without problems, the complicated flow of personnel, the lack of local employees, and the full load of business are all headaches for him.

Pain and happiness are the standard portrayals of the current southern star sector.

Today is the day of the meeting, Wang Hui sorted out the appearance, and got into the special car of the Ministry of Intelligence.

At the mansion in Padolath, the meeting will take place soon.

By the time he arrived, the crowd was almost there.

Major General Azales, with deep bags under his eyes, is analyzing the impact of the trade boom on the Star Alliance.

And this was originally his job.

"Hey, you didn't rest yesterday? Been researching until now? "Just look at the ashtray on the table, and you know that these guys haven't slept all night.

No wonder it came so early.

Even Padolat was in high spirits but clearly lacking rest.

"So I've been waiting for you, it's better for you to talk about this matter!" Seeing that the main lord was coming, the major general could finally rest his throat for a while, and he said in a hoarse voice.

"What about the guys? Your busy feet don't stick to the ground, why didn't he come? Wang Hui swept around, and sure enough, she didn't see Barrett.

His Highness is still dealing with the envoy sent by the Star Alliance, and it is impossible to come back at this time, but he is not there, which makes people very puzzled.

"That guy escaped, and he went to Xarovin to discuss the mecha production line." Rose frowned and looked at the documents in her hand, her people caught three more spies yesterday, and with the popularity of the Blazing Phoenix, these guys are also increasing.

"............" was speechless, shook his head, Wang Hui walked to the virtual screen, there are still more than a dozen problems to solve today.

Well, this guy is really unreliable, and the first thing that comes to mind after a little hardship is to slip away.

Smiling helplessly, he put out a document and said, "Then the most important thing for us today is the request of the Nala people, right?" ”

The meeting went on as usual, while Barrett was drinking with someone.

Holding the star pupil, Nini looked at Barrett and Iron Hand holding the bottle and pouring wine with an unhappy expression.

"You drunkards, can you give the baby a good start?" Looking at the saliva flowing from the corner of the little girl's mouth, Nini knew that she was hungry.

But Xingtong is only two years old, she must not drink, will it affect her intellectual development?

As a little mother, she has long regarded this little baby as the most important thing in her life.

"When I don't remember, the old man of my family just used a spoon to feed and drink." Iron Hand hiccuped, and his best friend came to see him, much to his delight.

"Go, go, you weren't even civilized at that time! Really, a bunch of savages. Nini complained unhappily, and then got up with the star pupil in her arms.

Before she left, the little girl stretched out her hand to her father.

"No way!" Nini didn't know if she wanted to stay and fill her stomach? Don't even think about it!

Forcibly holding Hoyomi out of the bar, she headed upstairs.

Moore was upstairs preparing to eat, and that's when he caught the little girl's attention.

"I haven't seen you in a while, but you're much more mature." Moore laughed, two years ago Doroniel was a young girl who didn't grow up, but now it's different.

Motherhood has made her mature a lot in both her actions and words.

"Why?" Nini smiled embarrassedly, anyone could see her pride.

"Dog!" The little girl suddenly rode to Wang Wang, who was lying at Moore's feet, and then stretched out her little hand to ask Moore for food, but fortunately, the big yellow dog was very well-behaved, and let the little girl scratch and scratch, but not move.

Cutting off a large piece of smoked sausage and stuffing it into her little hand, Moore looked at this lovely little girl dotingly.

"It's good, I want a daughter too." She said with a little envy.

"Then you should quickly find someone to marry." Nini has the capital to say this, and there are three months left, which is the wedding date he has planned.

"I haven't found anyone to love yet." Shaking her head, Moore continued to work on her hand, dodging the topic.

The next two of them stopped talking, in fact, both of them knew that Moore had not liked others before, but unfortunately this man was just a guy who didn't understand the amorous feelings.

Someone who was touching the bottle sneezed heavily.

"I'll go, and who's going to talk to me?" Barrett scratched the back of his head.

"Don't let Buzz talk about you, you're also cowardly, aren't you afraid that he will retaliate against you?" Iron Hand knew that Barrett had blown up that guy's hometown, and the news had been reported for three whole days, so it was hard to know if he didn't know.

"You just come and go, he is not a good man and a woman, he just seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages, and has no absolute interests, so he is too lazy to move me." Barrett shook his head and smiled, then poked his head mysteriously and whispered: "This guy wants to get a piece of the pie in Xalovin, how can he trouble me at this time?" ”

Tie Shou shook his head, he just smirked, he didn't understand these things, but it made him very happy to be able to drink with him here.

Just then, Joshua, who had gone out to buy something, returned.

Seeing Barrett, she nodded politely and walked upstairs.

Seeing her walk upstairs, Barrett slapped his arm to the iron hand that was pouring wine on his neck.

"How? If you want to have good looks, you want to have a temperament, or an interracial beauty, you kid don't show it? He looked anxious, if ordinary people had already found a way to chase him, he would be happy.

"I think it's better to look at this thing, but I don't hate her." Iron Hand grinned, he also knew that this girl was not only these, but also very good at magic.

Looking at his appearance, Barrett figured out that this guy should have already started to act, otherwise with his character, he wouldn't have spoken like this.

By the time they had filled the table with bottles, Moore had finally finished her specialty------ pickled vegetables and smoked sausages.

Barrett looked at the not-so-beautiful food in front of him, raised his glass and said, "I wish everyone's life can be better, cheers!" ”

For a while, the small bar was warm and lively.

Three hours later, Barrett boarded a shuttle to Xalovin.

Hopefully the next time we meet, they'll be able to come together.

Nini's voice came from behind him, making him want to laugh a little.

"Okay, okay! Baby, will you keep the sausages for Daddy? It turned out that the little girl was holding a large bundle of smoked sausages that Moore had given her partingly, and Nini was worried that she would stain her dress and try to trick her back.

The little girl looked at her unlucky father with strange eyes, wasn't he still swaying from side to side just now? How did you wake up like this?

"You can't get drunk, can I get drunk? It's just to cooperate with him. Barrett laughed, he knew that this little girl had taken advantage of the opportunity to steal a lot of wine.

was secretly threatened by her own father, the little girl finally compromised, she reluctantly handed over the sausage in her hand, and broke half of it and stuffed it into her mouth.

Looking at the little girl who was stuffed into a big bag by the sausage, Barrett and Nini looked at each other and smiled......
