The Hound class, a standard Hound class, has a length of more than a thousand meters, a raised tail, and looks like a long sword. What makes Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info different from other starships is its design concept. Its energy system is not for interstellar travel, but to cover the consumption of that large-caliber catapult gun. Its attitude control system is also not intended for interstellar flight, but for battery aiming.

In theory and in practice, the pilots of the Hound class never flew a starship, but a powerful battle-class main gun.

The Hound class is a very powerful starship, although the energy reserves of the Hound class can only support twelve fires from the main gun under normal circumstances, and it does not have the ability to fire more than three thousand salvos of the main gun of a normal battleship. However, it doesn't matter, the cost of the Hound class is very low, and even the poorest tribe in Mimatar can easily support more than 100,000 Hound-class starships.

Although the hound-class debut caused several of the Empire's top brass to twitch, they were relieved when the Empire's pervasive intelligence system sent the Hound-class intelligence back. Which battleship of the Imperial Navy is not thick-skinned and thick-skinned, and carries a large number of younger brothers with it every time it travels? So...... The Hound threat is not as luxurious as their record.

"So, the hound-class threat has nothing to do with its actual lethality. However, if future starships are built according to this philosophy, humanity may perish due to war. Lu Lu's conclusion left Hayabusa a little entangled. However, Lu Lu rolled his eyes at an angle that the falcon couldn't see.

The problem of human life consumption is actually very easy to solve, but at that time, the moral bottom line of human beings does not know which abyss it will fall to, maybe there will be large-scale adoption of cloning technology, or robot technology to replace citizens on the battlefield. As a result, war becomes a simple war of resource attrition, and the resources of the universe are limited, no matter how rich the starry sky may seem.

In addition, technologies such as human cloning are actually technologies that have long been mastered by the descendants of the earth living in the modern universe. It was only a long, long time ago, in the spirit of humanitarianism, that representatives of the descendants of the earth pledged to completely stop the use of this technology in the broad sense of the word in civilized society, and only for scientific research. In fact, everyone knows that this so-called convention can be torn apart at any time and step on countless feet.

……

Lu Lu threw the task to the chief of staff, but he teased the honest man with bad intentions. The new Chief of Staff didn't know how much the people on the Confederation took the rules. The short period of contact made it impossible for the traditional naval colonel to get to know the troops he would command.

The situation in the Crescent Moon region is not tricky for Lu Lu at all, the only question is whether he wants to make this matter bigger, or if it is just a big thing and a small matter.

Indeed, as it stands, Lelu's current opponents are Emma's Holy Cross Legion and the Galactic Empire's expeditionary fleet, but don't forget that Lelu himself represents the Federation Navy. In a sense, they are three equal interlocutors, and as it stands, all three are aimed at another, lower level.

In fact, the saddest thing in the chaos at the beginning was the convoy that never thought of causing trouble in the first place. Neither the leaders nor members of the S33 or S41 fleets ever wanted to cause trouble in the Domain of the Fountains. It's a pity that their company executives don't give face to these little people.

However, the two fleets were targeted in the first place, not because they were really innocent. On the contrary, none of the national powers except the Emma Empire could tolerate the sins committed by these fleets at the source. It is not a simple crime such as smuggling prohibited items, but the smuggling of weapons.

You must know that the Faster Light Group, as a company registered in the Galactic Empire, actually did the criminal acts of Emma's slave hunting fleet, while the security company of the Pan North Galaxy Group provided military assistance to the Faster Light Group. Whether it's attacking planets to plunder populations, attacking the Mi convoy that comes to the rescue, or escorting the process of transporting slaves.

Even if they commit crimes in places that the people can't see, where the law can't control them, they can exist in the world for hundreds of years, and it has to be said that they have reached a tacit understanding between various empires. However, their recent movements have undermined this tacit understanding.

The reason for this is that the Faster-Light Group has made several big deals recently, and they want the Mi people of the Springs Domain, including the Brut tribe, to sell a large number of starships for military purposes.

This is the main reason why Hayabusa can't make the move to stop Lulu's idea of convulsion. The starship market outside the Empire's sphere of influence has always been in the hands of the navies of the major empires, and the current behavior of the Faster-Light Group has undoubtedly violated the interests of all empires.

Before this, Hayabusa was actually very happy to see Lu Lu make a big fuss in the Domain of the Fountain. It's a pity that now two forces of the same level have been merged, which makes Hayabusa have to have some scruples. Although she herself is very hands-on...... It's a pity that this scattered exploration fleet can't defeat those two seemingly elite enemies. If you can't win, you still have to fight it? The falcon's head hasn't broken yet.

"It does look like a very chaotic situation." Hayabusa shook the papers in his hand and said to the boss who was lying on the couch squinting and napping, and had no officer demeanor. "Those stupid people, I don't know that they should strike first at this time......"

"They won't act on their own, Mu Zhendong is not really a fool, after all, he is a child of a family, if he can't even see the current situation clearly, will the people in his family let him out?" Lu Lu said in a wandering manner.

"That being said." The falcon lowered its eyelids and narrowed its sharp gaze. "But this kind of situation of putting the initiative in the hands of other people is a really annoying feeling."

The current situation...... Two huge fleets were trapped in an asteroid belt, surrounded by starships of the major powers. Although they haven't really done it yet, the major forces believe that this fleet is already in their pockets, and now they are thinking about how to beat back the claws of the wolves who peep into their wealth.

However, it is obviously impossible to really monopolize the goods, and the question is how to distribute the proceeds. Lu Lu shrugged helplessly.

Although he likes to cause trouble, it doesn't mean that Lu Lu is stupid. At this moment, facing two evenly matched enemies, even the elite of the Federation Navy will definitely suffer. The current Lu Lu is no longer the unscrupulous little hairy man he was at the beginning, he has the consciousness that he must be responsible for the lives of his subordinates.

"What about the so-called price of maturity." Lu Lu secretly complained about his sudden compassion. "Unfortunately, although I also want to seize the initiative as soon as possible, in the absence of intelligence, I think the fleet should adopt a cautious defensive posture. After all, behind the faster-than-light group, no one can be sure whether there is a shadow of the Galactic Empire. ”

"But just watching those guys get the protection of the Starship Army?" Falcon is unwilling, although the Federal Navy has also done this kind of thing to directly protect the short without asking the reason, but unfortunately, the Falcon is eccentric, what's the matter.

"Nope." Lu Lu turned over and sat up, clicked on the screen casually, and quickly operated on the screen. "To be honest, I don't think the Starship Force is here for the faster-than-light group. This incident was very coincidental, whether it was the location or the timing of its appearance, the appearance of the Starship Force was greatly unexpected by expectations. ”

Because they were really out of Lulu's expected range, neither before nor after, Lulu did not get the information that this group of starship troops was going to appear in this area.

"It's weird." Lu Lu touched the stubble that had grown on his chin, and stared at the star map with straight eyes. "What is the rationale? Whatever it is, there must be a reason why they're here now. ”

"The Expeditionary Force's whereabouts have always been erratic, how can you think that their appearance in the Crescent Region this time was an accident?" Since Hayabusa took charge of the intelligence system of the special service fleet, he has not missed a single piece of information that can be used. However, Lu Lu always has his source of information, and many times, Lu Lu does not rely on Hayabusa's provision to make decisions, which makes Hayabusa a little panicked.

"It is true that the expeditionary fleet tends to cruise throughout the domain of the source, but it is not without a pattern, the expeditionary fleet headquarters is the center, from the constellation Phoenix, to Sirius, at a cruising speed for about a month, and then turns south, reaching the northern end of the Crescent region and then to the eastern constellation Pegasus." Lu Lu pointed at the star map displayed on the screen, and his usual listless appearance also took on a new and shining color.

"This is the route of the flagship formation of the expeditionary fleet, which normally passes at least once every four months at the turning point of the route at these four points. In fact, their flagship formation passed through the Crescent region half a year ago, and under normal circumstances, they should be in the Wyvern system, however, what is now hovering at the northern end of the Crescent region does include their flagship formation. ”

"Originally, from the information I obtained, if this operation went well, it would only be against the fleet of the faster-than-light group, and even if the owners of this cargo met, the Bruts, we had more than a ninety percent chance of winning. Even if the prey chooses to merge with another fleet, my fleet will only have to face the squadron of the Holy Cross in the Crescent region, and the odds of victory are as high as seventy. Lu Lu tilted his head to look at the adjutant with a thoughtful expression.

"It's a pity, even though the odds of victory are as high as forty percent now, it's not worth the life of our Federation soldiers in exchange for this victory." Lulu was confident that his men would be able to win the final victory. However, what stunned Hayabusa was that he finally gave up the option of fighting. After all, a 40% chance of winning is actually enough to risk most commanders.
