Chapter Forty-Six: A Hot Potato
The huge administrative star in front of him has almost been transformed into a military planet.
In addition to the necessary living equipment, the vast majority of factories here are related to the military industry. After Lin Debiao's introduction, Fang Mingwei learned that there were more than 100 assembly lines for manufacturing Qingsong-class warships here.
If the horsepower is turned on at full power, then within ten days, a hundred Green Pine-class battleships can be produced. Such a strong strength made Fang Mingwei greatly surprised, and he was also deeply impressed by the national strength of the Newman Empire.
A hundred green pine-class warships are enough to wipe out the Earth Alliance more than a hundred times, and these are just ten days of productivity on a planet.
It is said that there are at least twenty such planets in the entire empire.
In this way, once there is a gap in the level of civilization, it is indeed impossible to make up for it.
However, when Lin Debiao introduced the Simakari Alliance stationed together, his tone couldn't help but bring a bit of pride to his tone.
Although Simakari is also a fifth-level civilized country, their civilization level has been improved for less than two thousand years, and in the eyes of the Newman Empire, an old fifth-level civilized country, they are still a young guy.
Obviously, the other party also knows this truth, so on this planet, nearly two-thirds of the territory belongs to the Newman Empire.
The ship landed at the command center of the Newman Empire.
The more than 30 Qingsong-class battleships were okay, but as soon as the Victory-class battleships with a length of 30 kilometers descended, they immediately occupied a large area of the spaceport, making everyone look sideways.
"Hell, how did these two Victory-class warships get here, they should be docked in a satellite port." A rough voice came, making Fang Mingwei, who had just stepped off the spaceship, stunned.
"You, yes, that's you."
Surrounded by a group of officers, a man in a general's uniform strode forward, with an angry face, and said, "You idiots, can't you understand the signal instructions?" ”
Fang Mingwei opened his mouth, he didn't know any signal instructions, but after seeing the first few Qingsong-class battleships descend, he also followed.
In this super port, which was hundreds of times larger than any spaceport in the Earth Alliance, Fang Mingwei only found two locations where the Victory-class battleship could dock, so he naturally stopped without giving up.
"I'm sorry general, I ......"
Before Fang Mingwei could explain, the man shouted loudly: "Wait, who are you, why don't you have a military uniform and rank?" What about your sir? ”
Fang Mingwei swallowed and spat, and said, "Report to the chief, I don't have a chief." ”
Those people looked at each other, and their eyes were full of suspicion when they looked at Fang Mingwei.
"These two Victory-class battleships belong to the establishment of that unit."
"These two." Fang Mingwei said generously: "It's my personal spaceship." ”
The general was stunned, glanced behind him, and asked, "Can the Victory-class battleship also be given for private use now?" ”
"Yes General." An adjutant said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty has ordered that each of the ten major families be given ten Victory-class warships. ”
The general's face softened a little, the top ten families are the most powerful families in the empire, even if it is him, he doesn't want to offend easily.
"Well, since you're here to visit, let your people get off the ship."
Fang Mingwei blinked his big bright eyes, what do you call coming to visit? I'm here to hunt the corpses of monsters.
"Your Excellency, I am not here to visit, but to participate in the war." Fang Mingwei explained.
"You?" The general glanced at him disdainfully, his eyes suddenly froze, and he said to himself: "You are a kid from that family, you seem to be very familiar." ”
Fang Mingwei was about to answer, when suddenly a person ran quickly and saluted: "Your Excellency General, the command department is calling, please come as soon as possible." ”
"I see." The general waved his hand, and the impatient other party shouted: "Hurry up, let your men come out, I have already arranged food and lodging for you." ”
"Subordinates?" Fang Mingwei looked around for a moment and said, "I don't have any subordinates." ”
The general glared at him and said angrily: "Stupid, I asked you to call out the men who drove the spaceship, this is the barracks, not the home of you little guys, and no one is allowed to stay on board the Victory-class battleship before takeoff." ”
Fang Mingwei nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency General, I understand what you mean, but I don't have any subordinates. ”
The general was furious, his eyes flashed with cruel anger, and he said coldly: "You don't have any subordinates, could it be that you drove these two spaceships alone?" ”
"Yes, Your Excellency."
"Alone, that's great." The general put his hands behind his back and said, "Grab me." ”
Several soldiers rushed up and caught Fang Mingwei, who did not resist.
"Your Excellency, what crime have I committed?"
"In the front-line barracks, you dare to tease Shangguan, you are really looking for death." The general said coldly: "However, for the sake of the family, I will leave your little life." ”
"General Xu, what are you doing? Hurry up and let go. Lin Debiao just got off the spaceship at this moment, and immediately saw the scene of Fang Mingwei being arrested, and hurriedly came.
"General Lin, why are you here?"
"If I don't come, you're going to rebel." Lin Debiao glanced at him coldly and said, "Don't let anyone go." ”
"General Lin, he is so untrustworthy that he dares to say that one person is in charge of two Victory-class battleships......"
Lin Debiao frowned, stepped forward and said softly, General Xu's face suddenly became extremely exciting, and his gaze at Fang Mingwei suddenly changed.
With a slight wave of their hand, the soldiers immediately retreated. Fang Mingwei touched his arm that was a little painful, and was secretly shocked in his heart, these soldiers turned out to be the elite of the elite, each of them had a tenth-level physical ability, if he didn't use the power of machinery, he might not be their enemy.
"Lord Earl, I really didn't expect you to come to the front line in person, it's disrespectful." General Xu said, held his head high, slammed his heels, and made a gesture of raising his hand.
Fang Mingwei was stunned, and the trace of anger in his heart immediately disappeared.
The salute is the highest etiquette for a senior officer to bow to his superiors or a respected person, just like a soldier's salute with a gun.
The surrounding soldiers were confused for a while, they all knew General Xu's identity and temper, and the surprise in their hearts could be imagined when they saw that he actually raised his hand to a guy who was obviously not a soldier.
Lin Debiao secretly pulled General Xu and said, "Stupid, the matter of our coming here has not been made public, you can restrain me a little." ”
General Xu's face was slightly red, and he said, "I'm sorry, but don't worry, in my territory, there will be no accidents." ”
With that, he turned and said, "Lord Earl, the journey has been difficult, please come with me." ”
Just as they were about to leave the port, one of the majors in charge of port security asked, "Your Excellency, what about the people in the ship?" Do you want to let them down. ”
General Xu hesitated, since he knew Fang Mingwei's identity, he naturally understood that there could be no one on the spaceship. However, since Lin Debiao didn't want to make a noise, he couldn't say it clearly: "No need, just let them stay on it." ”
The officer was stunned for a moment before he obeyed.
Although Fang Mingwei and the others left, the many sergeants who witnessed this scene began to discuss in private. What was it that made the hot-tempered General Xu salute and make an exception to allow the members of the two spaceships not to leave the spacecraft.
For a while, there were all kinds of speculations about Fang Mingwei's identity, and they emerged in endlessly.
Since two-thirds of the planet is the territory of the Empire, they should naturally bear most of the responsibility.
Therefore, among the military forces here, the strength of the imperial [***] team accounts for three-quarters, and in the event of a war, it has always been dominated by the imperial army.
The headquarters was set up on the largest continent, and a tall palace-like building was where Imperial Admiral Chen Xutao worked.
When this admiral, who was very famous within the empire, heard that Fang Mingwei wanted to participate in the battle here, his face became extremely ugly in an instant.
Looking at Lin Debiao opposite, he lowered his voice and said, "General Lin, why did you find me such a big trouble?" ”
Lin Debiao smiled and said, "This is what Your Majesty meant, and I can't do anything about it." Moreover, His Majesty also explained that the identity of the Earl could not be known to everyone. ”
Chen Xutao said helplessly: "Of course I won't publicize the identity of Lord Earl everywhere, but you and I know it well, if he has any accident here, do you think I can still sit in this position safely?" ”
"Since you're afraid that he'll have an accident, then send someone to protect him."
Chen Xutao shook his head and said: "On the battlefield, it is changing rapidly, no matter who it is, there is no perfect certainty. ”
Lin Debiao looked at him helplessly, and said, "I understand what you mean, but Your Majesty's will has already been issued, if you have an opinion, I can convey it." ”
Chen Xutao thought for a moment and said with a wry smile: "There are ten human and beast border points in the empire, why do you have to choose me here?" ”
"It's very simple, because your monster here is the weakest, so it's the safest." Lin Debiao patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Old man, you have done your best." ”
Chen Xutao looked at Fang Mingwei, who was visiting with great interest in the distance, and only felt bitter in his mouth, how did such a hot potato fall into my hands?
