According to the universally accepted star mapping convention, the stable transition channel is a solid line, and the unstable channel that opens and does not open is a dashed line.

But as long as it's a dotted line, it means that it can be used as a pathway.

"As you can see now, the Far Shore Nebula, which was originally thought to be a restricted area for navigation, is actually not as difficult as we imagined...... Moreover, such a detailed star map, this is by no means something that can be accomplished by just pirates and smugglers, it must be a feat that can only be achieved by a large country like the Empire, which has been invested for many years and at any cost, and can only be achieved by investigating and exploring this nebula. So, the question is, what does the Galactic Empire want to do? ”

Yu Lian paused, letting everyone carefully experience the fear after careful consideration.

Actually, you don't have to think about it. After all, the community is the "rebellion" of the empire, and young and middle-aged people may lack the necessary sense of crisis because they lack the peace defense of the whole galaxy in recent years, but the old people who have experienced the era of independence are by no means so.

No one knows better than them the true strength of the Empire, and the pride of the nobles of the Empire who have followed the Emperor of Dawn on their expedition to conquer half of the galaxy.

Fortunately, Brigadier General Maklov grew up in that era, and without asking too much, he immediately fell into deep thought.

Yu Lian looked directly at the other party's scrutinizing gaze: "The lower officer thinks that as soldiers of the community, we have the obligation to figure this out!" Just trying to figure this out is enough for us to take the risk. ”

I still think this guy has been planning for a long time. Hachiman thought to himself.

"What if, we pounce? Captain Yu Lian. What if we hadn't blocked that Marquis of Odegar and didn't get the evidence we wanted? What if our fleet is wasted in these unstable transition passages, but none of them are ultimately gained? ”

"It can't be nothing." Yu Liandao.

"Huh?" The other party couldn't help but be stunned.

Yu Lian nodded to Fei Fei, who pursed his lips and smiled, operated the information terminal again, and marked a few more flashing red points of light on his astrolabe.

"At the very least, we can be sure that organizations like the Black Banner of Moda, the Brotherhood of the Bloody Hand, and the Iron Guards all have strongholds here. Anyway, it's already in, so why don't you just clean up the far shore nebula! The Empire may have some tacit understanding with these underworld people, but we don't! If the Marquis of Odegar can't be found, can't he find any other evidence from these fellows? What does it mean to get nothing? ”

Yu Lian looked at Brigadier General Makarov thoughtfully, and confirmed that the old man's resolute eyes were indeed tempting.

"Thankfully, our fleet is made up of light and medium ships! It's best suited for these dotted paths in the Far Shore Nebula. Yu Lian showed a cruel smile: "Take 10,000 steps back, I can at least do a big cleaning of the distant shore nebula!" And what could be more suitable for our fleet than an enemy of this grade? ”

Of course, the pirates are the first soup, and the main course should be the stronghold of the empire that is secretly under construction.

I have to admit that the empire actually built a space fortress in the nebula on the far shore, which is as difficult as in the classical era, using a wheelbarrow to send engineering materials up the sheep's intestine path, and building a castle on a lofty mountain mountain at an altitude of thousands of meters.

Not to mention the investment, this obsession alone is enough to send chills down the back.

However, without such a stronghold to transit, it is completely impossible for the Marquis of Odegar's future raiding strategy to succeed.

So, it has to be demolished! Burn it out! Grab the light! So that he can be worthy of the persistence of the empire!

In this way, it can be regarded as a feast worthy of the friends of the 13th Fleet!

However, it would be too suspicious for me to know about this kind of thing, so let's let you find out "naturally" on the way to fight pirates. Yu Lian thought.

At present, the thirteenth fleet is also a small fleet of 20 ships of big cats and kittens, but these pirate gangs mentioned in Yu Lian's words are all bandits with 100 ships and tens of thousands of heroes. But people don't seem to think it's a problem at all.

"However, our Marines are not numerous, and if we encounter a pirate stronghold, we may ...... Oh, sorry. As soon as Akinayama Hachiman mentioned this, he suddenly thought of the thousands of militia groups that had already been embarking in New Seville, better trained and equipped than ordinary garrisons.

…… You still say that it wasn't calculated first? He continued to observe secretly, but his gaze couldn't help but scrutinize a few more times.

The militia is so pitiful, you were deceived into getting on the thief ship like this? Ah no, considering Lilia? Miss Alfonso's relationship with you may be voluntary.

As for the militia soldiers, as long as they are sure that they can win and share their spoils, these guys are happier than anyone else!

When I think of this, Akinayama Hachiman, who is still a single dog, shuddered and cried, and the reflection of his glasses already covered up contempt and hatred.

Eleanor should have thought of this stubble, and immediately slashed Yu Lian twice with a knife-like gaze, and then said to the general: "Now, it's up to you to decide." ”

Brigadier General Maklov, who was in town on the 14th of Wudu, pondered for a moment, straightened his military hat, and looked at the two of his peers on board.

The taciturn Chief of Staff, Colonel Finn, nodded, and continued to carry out his character that might not have lines in the entire book until the end.

"Captain Yu Lian, send the star map to me, and give me half an hour for secondary analysis." Captain Carlos, the captain of the fleet, said a few more words.

Yu Lian nodded, but there was also a little surprise. Being able to conduct a secondary analysis of such a large-scale star map in half an hour is not a supergod, but at least it can be regarded as an elite.

Mr. Perris is amazing! If it's this kind of support, why shouldn't we do things well!

"Give the subordinate half an hour. However, Xia Guan personally thinks that there should be no problem with basic navigation safety. ”

The implication is that you don't have to worry too much about the loss of unstable sailing.

The Commodore smiled: "The creed of the Community Navy is that if you see the enemy, you will be destroyed!" ”

Yes, if it were a foreign army on the other side, Brigadier General Marklov would have consulted his superiors first. But on the other side are pirates and smugglers! Since they have found their traces, they should be exterminated, isn't this the basic obligation of the navies of all countries?

This kind of thing still needs to be consulted by the superiors, so the next time a thief enters the barracks, simply call the police.

"Then, gentlemen, take advantage of this time to draw up a preliminary battle plan. I await your good news. Having left this order, Brigadier General Maklov turned off communications.

Eleanor is very happy, it is great to have such a reasonable boss who is willing to accompany her crazy.

Yu Lian is also very happy, because so far, the plan is clear.

"Did you hear the general's order? Brother Hachiman, on the premise that the Marquis of Odegar will ambush us, we have started to formulate a tactical plan, right? Yu Liandao.

This guy has completely put himself in the role of chief of staff! Madam Deputy Commander, you don't care? Akinayama Hachiman glanced at Eleanor covertly, but probably because the glasses covered the eyes of people who couldn't see her at all, the commander's lady was unmoved, but showed expectant eyes.

"I have a lot of trust in Lieutenant Akinayama's abilities. As long as you can take out the first mock battle calculation of my ability to enter the school, the mere Marquis of Odegard is not worth mentioning at all! ”

Indeed, the future Marquis of Odegar is also a famous general of Megatron Galactic, but he has not taken advantage of Hachiman Brother once. Oh! Can I actually see the fate of the old enemy more than ten years in advance? It's so burning!

However, the parties really can't burn up.

Make a fart! I've never heard of a tactical plan that was made in half an hour! Hachiman, who rolled his eyes, almost cursed this sentence.

"I don't know the strength of the other side, and I don't know the type of ship in his hand." He smiled wryly and pushed his glasses: "Let's be cautious at most......"

Before he could finish his sentence, Yu Lian motioned to Fei Fei to open the detailed celestial condition of the ISA782 galaxy to him.

There are two associated brown dwarfs in a binary structure and six planets, including an ice planet, two gas giants, a barren terrestrial planet, and two lava planets.

In addition, between the gas giant, which is about the size of the parent star, and the frozen planet, there is still a whole circle of frozen asteroid belts.

"What a barren place!" Ina muttered under her breath.

Of course, the frozen planet, and the terrestrial planet, can be planetary...... It's just that the government and the consortium will invest hundreds of millions of dollars in such a remote place to carry out such a big project!

"That terrestrial planet can also be focused on, if there are creatures that can dehydrate themselves and turn them into paper people, they will all be burned to death in the end." Yu Lian casually said a joke, and then felt the sadness and loneliness that he understood again.

So, in everyone's inexplicable gaze, he could only quickly turn the topic back to the main thing, and continued: "Considering the shipping situation of the Far Shore Nebula, the first step to calculate is safety, seaworthiness and maneuverability. Then a ship must be more suitable than a fleet. ”

Everyone felt that it made sense.

“…… You have also seen the star map just now, and there is no more spacious jump channel found yet. Then a heavy cruiser with a mass of about 300,000 tons is the best choice. It just so happened that the Empire began testing a newest cruiser, the Clear Sky class, last year, which claims to be the most perfect cruiser! ”

The people present, at least the command level, are serious naval students, and they are well aware of all kinds of cutting-edge weapons, especially new warships, and they all think of this heavy cruiser that made a big splash at last year's military ship show, and they suddenly feel more reasonable.

"If I were the Marquis of Odegar, I would definitely choose this battleship." Yu Lian said in a firm tone.

Nonsense, that guy himself is one of the designers of the Clear Sky class, and the sabotage fleet led by the future is all Clear Sky class. It is said that when the official was promoted and replaced with the dreadnought as the flagship, he cried for a long time.

"This battleship has no actual combat experience!" The senior sister frowned and said, "What about our database?" ”

"It doesn't have to be more detailed than what was revealed in Ship Magazine last year. On the Empire's side, except for last year's appearance at the boat show, very strict secrecy measures were enforced at other times. We don't know what subsequent modifications she has, not even a few of them already in service with the Empire. Akinayama Hachiman pushed his glasses, this time preparing to cover his distress with reflections.

"You see, we're not ignorant of the enemy, are we? Now, Brother Hachiman, can we make a battle plan? ”
