Chapter 753: Star Field System: Conditions for System Upgrades
Chen Mengjie opened her eyes with great curiosity, but at that moment, she was stunned.
Outside the porthole of the spaceship, there was originally a faint light in the pitch black, and there was a gorgeous starry sky, but at this time, a huge starry sky seemed to be lit up.
As far as the eye can see, the battleships are as if they are participating in a military parade, all of them have turned on the battleship lights on the battleship, and hundreds of battleships are shining together, lighting up the starry sky.
And that's not all, the next moment, more than a dozen battleships came out of the crowd and fired in unison into the depths of the starry sky.
Almost instantly, these main artillery fires set by the brain are easy to make a cake in the distant starry sky, yes, just like a laser searchlight, by controlling the range of the main gun, the diffraction of energy, etc., it is easy to make a huge starry sky cake picture.
This is also what Zhang Shusheng has arranged a long time ago, 300 ready-made Longshan-class G+ battleships secretly returned from the border of Nock and Rank, with the help of Lin Feng, completely bypassing the area where Nok's heavy troops were stationed, and with the cover of Lin Feng's cronies, this return was very smooth.
Of course, the return of the battleship is a big event, but it does not affect Zhang Shusheng to celebrate Chen Mengjie's birthday by the way, a little girl always needs to be pampered and loved, which Zhang Shusheng has a lot of experience even as an emperor.
"Zhang Shu, is this really good? In ancient times, there were beacon fire theater candidates, although you are only one word different from the current emperor, but to please Miss Ben like this, are you a little nervous? ”
Chen Mengjie had no doubt in her heart that it was false, but she was puzzled, Zhang Shu was indeed only one word short of the emperor, but there are not many people in the world who are one word worse, and there are countless people with the same name and surname, she also read the report a few days ago, saying that there are more than 100,000 people named Zhang Shusheng in the country.
The Imperial Court Office also held a press conference for this purpose, and read out the emperor's order, the emperor believed that this phenomenon of the same name and surname is the folk custom of the Chinese nation since ancient times, and should not be stopped, if the parents are not afraid of their children taking on more eyes in the future, he himself has no opinion.
Therefore, Chen Mengjie has always known that Zhang Shu is a businessman with a deep background, and he is only one word short of His Majesty the Emperor, but today's events still shocked her very much.
Although she has not officially graduated from college and can only be regarded as a young and beautiful girl, it does not mean that she does not know the situation in front of her, and she wants to let the imperial fleet celebrate her birthday, which cannot be explained by coincidence.
Zhang Shusheng saw that there were too many doubts in her eyes, so he just smiled and said, "I won the bet with their commander, that's all." Of course, people, the premise is that I have business dealings with the emperor [***]. ”
Chen Mengjie nodded, in short, the richer and more powerful his man is, the deeper his background, the better, and the happier he can be, although he is only a junior.
Zhang Shusheng hugged her, watched the little spaceship gradually fly away from the starry sky, and gradually fell asleep with Chen Mengjie, and muttered: "Girl, this is compensation for you." Next time, I will give you more surprises. ”
……
In the time when Zhang Shusheng accompanied Chen Mengjie to sleep and sent her into the room, and even during the later bed earthquake, the generals of the Empire's Lost Fortress were completely frightened.
Yes, many people were stupefied, and even Cai Ye almost thought that it would be the Longshan people who disguised themselves as returning to the fleet to sneak attack.
At the front are 300 G+ battleships, all of which are Longshan-class, as one of the two most advanced G+ battleships in the Lost Star Domain, if they can make breakthroughs in the four major fields of brain, engine, main gun and energy shield in the future, it will be an F-class battleship.
However, it is easier said than done, technological breakthroughs often take countless years, and the control of low-level civilizations by third-level civilizations is not only reflected in the blockade of core technologies, but often you are not allowed to use core technologies even if you get them.
Of course, this article does not work in times of war.
From the intelligence, Zhang Shusheng knew that the Longshan Empire and the Noke Business Alliance both stored some very advanced technologies, although there would be some difficulties in applying them to products, but it was not impossible, the key was that this kind of technology was expressly forbidden for private use by third-level civilizations, and the threshold of patents, sometimes once a low-level civilization was violated, it was often not a problem that could be solved by paying, but a war.
But once the war starts, these peacetime patent protections do not exist, everyone is in a mess, and who cares what you think of a higher civilization.
For example, the Longshan Empire and the Noke Business Alliance are about to launch a full-scale offensive and defensive war, but at the same time, the third-level civilization Guluo Federation and the Silver Moon Empire are also sharpening their knives, and no one can control anyone.
"300 Longshan-class battleships, oh my God, this has just come off the battlefield. Behind is the transport ship ......"
Many imperial officials were stunned when they saw the huge fleet docked outside the fortress on the screen.
300 Longshan-class battleships, and even had time to erase the insignia on the battleship, but many people still recognized it at a glance, and behind this batch of battleships were some transport ships.
There are 31 standard G-type transports, filled with materials and parts that have been initially recycled and can be used, which will soon be shipped back to Earth and then reused in battleship factories.
Cai Yi and Jiang Baili were also ecstatic, His Majesty spent so much effort to prepare in the early stage, and even went out in person, but they didn't expect to get back such a batch of battleships.
"The Longshan people and the Noks are fighting in the T33 star field, and it seems that His Majesty got these battleships from there."
Jiang Baili immediately thought of the origin of these battleships, although the two countries are currently hoarding heavy troops on the border, but the real breakthrough attack is only the T33 star field.
Cai Yi: "It's a pity, I didn't ask Your Majesty to take us with us at that time, just Your Majesty brought back 300 battleships, you can imagine how much the Longshan people suffered this time." ”
"Nok unilaterally announced that it had completely defeated the elite fleet of the Longshan Empire, with a scale of thousands of ships, but the Longshan Empire denied it, only saying that the border fleet was attacked by Nok. Now it seems that Nock's big victory in the T33 star field is a fact.
When I see Your Majesty later, I can just ask clearly, haha. ”
Jiang Baili was in a good mood, as the head of the Military Affairs Yuan and the right minister of the empire, he knew very well that the total number of battleships in the empire was only 476.
Although the theoretical production capacity of the warship factory reached 350 ships this year, in fact, due to the limited materials, only about 250 ships could be produced, half of which were sold to Orion and General Mian Kang of the Huff Empire, and the other half could be used for their own use.
However, the situation will improve next year, with a larger scale of basic investment, the five newly developed comprehensive resource stars will also begin to be produced, plus with the continuous shipment of materials by Dawning Interstellar Trade Co., Ltd., which has fully launched the interstellar recovery business with the support of Lin Feng, the battleship company will be able to produce at full capacity next year, that is, in 1963.
Cai Ye also counted the battleships of the empire in his heart.
Excluding the possible Guards Fleet in His Majesty's hands, the total number of battleships in the Empire is currently 477, and excluding the Zhonghua, the actual number of battleships is 576.
Among these 576 ships, some were purchased, some were captured from the Garimos, some were supported by Yunya, some were captured from pirates, and some were produced by themselves, which Zhang Shusheng secretly exchanged through the system.
All in all, most of the 576 battleships were elite Draco-class battleships.
There are 25 Shenlong-class battleships, 337 Tianlong-class battleships, 35 Heijia G+ battleships, and 179 other ordinary G-type battleships.
Of course, in recent years, due to wars, extermination of pirates, normal depreciation, scrapping and recuperation, etc., a certain amount of battleships have also been reduced.
However, on the whole, although there are not many battleships in the Empire, they are strong, especially the Celestial-class battleships that are the main force, which are definitely monsters stronger than the Longshan-class battleships and Nock-class battleships, which can be called quasi-F-class battleships.
The Shenlong-class battleships are the most expensive and the most difficult to produce, and 25 seems to be few, but when used intensively, they can cooperate with the Celestial Dragon battleships and play an extraordinary role.
That is, at the moment the empire has a total of 397 battleships above G+, which is close to 400.
Now that there are 300 G+ battleships back, the elite battleships of the empire's fleet have nearly doubled in number in an instant.
When Zhang Shusheng accessed the meeting through the virtual network and met Jiang Baili, Cai Yi, Sun Xiwu and others, they were still immersed in ecstasy.
"My generals, are you satisfied with this surprise?"
Zhang Shusheng looked at everyone with a smile.
"Your Majesty, your return this time can be described as a bumper harvest, which has solved our urgent needs. 300 Longshan-class battleships only need to be upgraded for a few months before they can enter active service, and our soldiers who have been trained for a long time have battleships to use. ”
The empire has no shortage of population, and under the premise of large-scale use of robots and humanoid robots, the empire has reached a scale of 4.5 billion at an explosive rate after decades of recuperation, which is not to worry about the number of soldiers.
Zhang Shusheng: "Yes, the Longshan people fired the first shot of the local attack, and Nock was forced to take ......"
So, he briefly talked about the battle between the two sides this time, but omitted many important details and did not mention them.
"The 300 Longshan-class battleships will be transformed and upgraded by the end of this year, and by that time, we will have about 1,000 battleships of about the scale.
At that time, I am ready to set up two major fleets, and this reorganization is also imperative. ”
Zhang Shusheng knows very well that if it weren't for the fact that he was in wartime now, he had a dream machine, a lot of help from the Noke Business Alliance, and war money, the most important thing was that the Lost Star Domain was a big treasure trove, with very rich resources, although there were not many life planets, but there were mining stars everywhere.
If it weren't for that, the Empire would simply not be able to sustain such a large fleet, let alone produce battleships at an even faster pace next year.
"This war is inevitable, so we must carry out the purpose of making war profits to the end.
What is War Money? It's nothing more than two points, first let others fight first, we sell equipment, this is a very profitable stage, we have plenty of time to make money while producing and growing our fleet.
Second, at the right time, intervene in the war with a sufficiently strong force, and pick the fruits of war when they are about to ripen.
We have taken these two steps, and the time saved by the empire is not ten years, nor a hundred years, but probably hundreds of years. ”
In Zhang Shusheng's view, at present, the empire does not lack basic technology, nor does it lack medium and high-end technology, and even in the future, there will be no shortage of resources, including energy mines, what is really lacking are two things, money and people.
How to make more money and grow your empire at a blowout rate is the premise.
At the same time, it is equally important to train more talents in the whole industry, including excellent soldiers, so that they can keep up with the rapid development of the empire.
If there is a problem in either of these two links, the super development of the empire cannot be discussed, and if you don't look at the heat of the fight outside, China may still be able to develop slowly in this nest of lost star fields.
Maybe a thousand years later, the second war has already broken out outside, and it is very likely that the empire has not yet become a second-level civilization.
Zhang Shusheng doesn't want such a speed of development.
Zhang Shusheng opened this meeting, and he said two things, reorganize the fleet and form two more powerful fleets, and in addition, the empire should develop at a faster speed.
As soon as the meeting ended, Zhang Bing, a guy who was in a mess, mysteriously found Zhang Shusheng.
"Boss, there is a hint about the system upgrade." (To be continued.) )
