After Chu Muping sent out the interview documents, he waited for four days before waiting for Heyue's reply.

The other party agreed to the visit.

Chu Muping's thoughts that he had been carrying were finally let go, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: "I am a dignified son, and I want to see the face of a civilian governor, it is really unpredictable. ’

Because this was a public visit in the capacity of the prince, Chu Muping was not on the battleship of the Gray Guard, but on the fleet of the September Flower, and he did not use any means to disguise his identity.

Chu Muping was not worried that his father Chu Taixin would be suspicious, if he asked, he said that he was just using this move to investigate the internal situation of Heyue Province at close range.

After the decisive battle, the September Flower fleet left the Void Desert, but it did not go too far, still dangling at the junction of Heyue and the Black Forest Province.

Because it was a public visit, the route of the visit was strictly limited, and the fleet of the September Flower could only follow the route given by Kawagoe.

The first stop on the route is Fort 7 in Ha Yue, the closest fortress to the Black Forest Province in Ha Yue, just 5 light years from the Void Desert.

The performance of the September Flower fleet was excellent, and it took only 3 hours to cross the distance of 5 light years with the help of a high-speed space channel.

Flying out of the exit of the high-speed space channel, the first thing in front of you is a red giant star, this star in its twilight years has less than 20 million years of life, it is extremely large, with a diameter of more than 20 light minutes, and occupies almost the entire field of view of the battleship's holographic screen.

Against this dark red background, there is a small black dot, and near the black dot are all kinds of ships coming and going, so many that from a distance, it looks like a swarm of bees surrounding the hive.

Chu Muping looked at this scene and said to his sister sitting beside him: "The number and types of spaceships are more than 8 times more than those of other provinces. Most of the spacecraft flew into the river and crossed the province, but very few flew out. I'm afraid most of the people in the spaceship are stowaways. ”

Chu Mulian had been checking the statistics of the September Flower's main control brain, and with the help of the battleship's powerful scanning ability, she had obtained a lot of information.

"Brother, not most, it's all!"

This made Chu Muping a little surprised: "Huh? Is it so serious? Tell me more about it. ”

Chu Mulian nodded, she followed her brother to walk among the stars, not only because of her brother's favor, but also because of her ability.

She quickly listed the detailed data and said, "Brother, you see, from the time we left the high-speed passage to here, the flight distance was about 10 light minutes, and about 72 spaceships were crossed on the way, of which 49 were industrial spaceships, and the remaining 23 were small passenger spaceships. Each industrial spacecraft carries about 89 additional people, and the average passenger spacecraft carries 221 people, adding up to 14,194 people. This is only 10 light fractions, considering various influencing factors, so in a standard day, in the Black Forest province alone, at least nearly 700,000 people smuggled into Ha Yue, plus another neighboring province Doji, about 1.4 million people entered Ha Yue that day. ”

1.4 million smuggled in a day, a standard year is as much as 500 million, this is a very exaggerated number, and this result can be achieved thanks to this sacred decisive battle.

Chu Muping's brows furrowed: "Didn't the Governor of Heyue take any blocking measures?" ”

Chu Mulian shook his head: "At least the No. 7 fortress has not been found here, and judging from the words and deeds of the governor of Heyue, there will be no other fortresses." ”

"It would be unwise for the Governor of Hayue to do this. No governor likes such a devastating loss of population in his own province. In doing so, he is making enemies of the governors of other provinces. ”

Although many low-end industries have been replaced by the wide application of artificial intelligence, they cannot be replaced by artificial intelligence in the high-end service industry and various jobs that require innovation. If you don't say anything else, let's talk about warriors, low-end fighters can certainly use intelligent robots, but high-end fighters must be humans, and they also require extremely high combat talent.

The probability of the appearance of these fighters with combat talent is stable, and if you want more powerful fighters, the best way is to increase the population base.

Therefore, the huge population is the cornerstone of a province's ability to gain a foothold in the interstellar world.

What the Governor of Heyue did was digging into the corners of other people's houses!

There are 23 provinces in the entire Crimson Empire, with a total population of hundreds of billions, and Heyue is currently 8.9 billion people, if Heyue violates the interests of other governors, then as long as my father ascends to the top, all the provinces will unite to deal with Heyue, and Heyue will be defeated!

Kawagoe is now playing with fire.

Chu Mulian seemed to be able to see his brother's thoughts, and smiled: "Brother, you don't have to worry, my father won't do this, and he won't let the other governors unite." ”

"Oh?" Chu Muping looked at his sister and waited for her explanation.

With a slight wave of Chu Mulian's hand, a star map of the Crimson Empire appeared in the air, among which the location of Heyue Province was highlighted in bright red.

"Big brother, you see, this side of Heyue was originally the Red Moon Province, and the Red Moon Province used to be the Aum Empire. Now that the Red Moon has become a no-man's land, then Heyue and the Aum Empire are directly connected. ”

Chu Muping looked over, and the situation was indeed as his sister said, so he nodded.

Chu Mulian said again: "Brother, if you look here, it is also across the Red Moon Province, and it only takes 27 light years to fly, which is the location of the Eye of the Sky, so Heyue and Sky City are also directly connected." ”

"That's true." Chu Muping was a little shocked.

Chu Mulian continued: "Originally, the Red Moon Province was an important place for the Three Kingdoms, but now that the Red Moon has become a no-man's land, Heyue behind the Red Moon has taken over the position of the Red Moon and occupied this pivotal place that can be attacked and defended. ”

Hearing this, Chu Muping already understood what his sister meant, he didn't say anything, and let his sister continue to explain.

Chu Mulian gently flicked the star map and marked an interstellar passage in light green: "Big brother, look at it again, the Little Bear Nebula spans the Red Moon Province, almost splitting this Red Moon in half, the upper part of the Red Moon borders the Black Forest, and the lower half only borders Heyue. Because of the obstruction of the Bear Nebula, it is difficult for the forces of the other provinces of the empire to disrupt the interstellar passage between Kawagoe and Orm. ”

Chu Muping nodded again and again. "That's true. This area is simply the back garden of Heyue Province, and others can't touch it at all. ”

Chu Mulian marked a bright yellow interstellar passage on the other side of the star map: "Big brother, look at this again." This is the Eye of the Sky, here is Kawagoe, and here is the Arcturus Nebula. For the same reasons before, it is difficult for the Black Forest to destroy this passage. If the Black Forest wants to do this, it will have to go through this passage. ”

Chu Mulian drew an emerald green line in the picture: "Big brother, look, this is the Moon Sea Corridor, and it is also the only passage for the Black Forest fleet to enter this passage. Originally, there was a high-speed interstellar passage here, but now, this place must have been destroyed, not only destroyed, but maybe there is also a fortress of Heyue. ”

Chu Muping's eyes froze: "This is already the place of the Red Moon, will Heyue really go to cultivate?" ”

"Thanks to the willow smoke, the Red Moon is currently borderland. Heyue is not a question of whether he will repair it, with the efficiency of the new governor, he should already be repairing it now, maybe it will be completed soon. ”

"Then I'll have to check it out." Chu Muping said.

He also vaguely thought of what his sister said, but what his sister said was much more detailed and in-depth than he thought, he immediately dialed the secret communication of the gray guard, and after the communication was connected, he said: "No. 3, you go to the Moon Sea Corridor now to find out the situation over there." ”

The 3rd is near the Moon Sea Corridor, and the news will be available soon. After issuing the order, Chu Muping waited patiently, and Chu Mulian didn't speak, just quietly looked at the star map.

During this time, the September Flower Fleet passed the security verification of Fort 7 and obtained the permission to use the second interstellar high-speed channel.

The September Flower Fleet circled around Fort 7 and entered a high-speed interstellar passage behind the fort.

As soon as he entered the passage, Chu Muping said, "Huh": "It's so fast!" So stable! ”

Normally, the speed in the interstellar high-speed corridor is up to 100 times the speed of light in ordinary space, but in this high-speed corridor, the upper speed limit has been fully doubled, reaching 200C.

At the same time, at a speed of 200C, the tremor of the ship's hull is so small that it is almost imperceptible, which is completely different from the mass of the high-speed interstellar passages in other provinces.

Faster speed and more stable operation means that the speed of resource circulation within Heyue Province far exceeds that of other provinces, and if war breaks out, the transfer of troops and materials will also have a huge advantage.

Chu Mulian was also surprised: "Brother, it seems that the Governor of Heyue has a lot of plans." ”

Chu Muping frowned and was silent.

In the silence, half an hour passed quickly, Chu Muping's secret communication rang, he immediately connected, and the voice of No. 3 came from inside: "Your Highness, the interstellar high-speed passage of the Moon Sea Corridor is damaged, the damage is very serious, and there is no possibility of repair." ”

Chu Muping's heart jumped suddenly, and he asked again: "Is there any other news?" ”

"We sent an unmanned reconnaissance ship, but just now, this reconnaissance ship lost contact with us, and it is suspected that it was attacked by shapeshifters."

"Oh~~~ I see, so be it."

After hanging up the communication, he said to his sister, "So it seems that the Moon Sea Corridor is indeed blocked, but could this be the work of the transformation monsters?" ”

Chu Mulian spread his hands: "Maybe, but the possibility is extremely small, the transformation monster can be used to deter ordinary people, but it is not enough to deter the god of war." ”

After speaking, she continued to pull out the star map and said, "With Kawakoshi's current geographical location, if my father pushes too hard, he may become a part of the Aum Empire or Sky City, and the most likely is Sky City. If the two are really aligned, then the Aum Empire is fighting with the Dark Shura Kingdom, and there is no time to look back, and the Sky City and Kawagoe are caught between the front and back, and the war fortress of the Sky Eye will be destroyed in an instant. At that time, the power of Sky City will not only control the Sky Eye, but also extend into the interior of the empire, which will be too bad. ”

Chu Muping was shocked when he heard this: "Sister, according to your analysis, hasn't this governor of Heyue become a big trouble for the empire?" How do I ally with him? ”

Chu Mulian smiled and said, "It is precisely because he is so important that he is worthy of the alliance." It is true that the Governor of Hayue is ambitious, but the reality is very cruel, even if he is a genius, he will only toss for 10 years at most. ”

"10 years? Why? Chu Muping asked subconsciously, and as soon as he finished asking, his heart suddenly moved, and he said, "Sister, do you mean the Dark Era?" ”

"That's right, once every two thousand years, darkness descends on the stars, nebulae expand dramatically, and giant beasts run rampant. Kawagoe's current location is good, but it is the hardest hit area, and as soon as the Ursa Minor and Arcturus Nebula expand, Kawagoe will be finished. And now the next Dark Age is just 10 years away. ”

The last time the Dark Age took place before the Crimson Empire, the people had long since lost the relevant information, and even the governors of the provinces only vaguely knew some information, and only the royal family knew all the inside information.

As soon as these words came out, Chu Muping fully understood: "Sister, you mean, let me borrow him for 10 years." ”

"Of course." Chu Mulian smiled proudly: "After 10 years, it will be time for you to ascend the throne, eldest brother, and Heyue will be destroyed in the Dark Age." At that time, the governor of Heyue will have no foundation, and even if he has great ambitions, he can only concentrate on being your god of war to protect the country. ”

"Hahaha, wonderful! It's wonderful! Chu Muping laughed: "Sister, you are really my guiding light!" ”

"Big brother, you have to express enough sincerity in this alliance."

"That's natural."
