Chapter 736: Pressure from the Empire
Daomang Kingdom, Tengyuan Universe Region. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
This cosmic region was originally the capital of the Lanofi Kingdom, but due to its developed economy, superior geographical conditions, and the protection of interstellar fortresses, it has now been selected as the new capital of the kingdom.
At this time, the kingdom sits on the territory of more than three hundred universe regions, and has become the number one power in the Prison Soul Star Sea, and within two thousand light years around the kingdom, there is no higher or lower force that can compete with it, if you don't think that the newly acquired territory has not been digested, it will not be a problem to grab dozens of universe regions!
At present, there is basically no shortage of territory in the kingdom, most of the mineral resources can be found on the domestic resource planet, and the supporting smelting and processing industries, but there are independent industrial systems that are gradually and orderly established!
The first batch of cosmic regions to be incorporated under the rule of the kingdom, at this time, all the infrastructure has been put in place, and it has begun to become the main source of taxes for the kingdom! A lot of investment, finally meeting the reward!
The project commando team under the leadership of Tu Muxing has made significant progress, and the first batch of DNA awakening reagents processed and refined with dozens of different fungal spores as alternative raw materials have been monitored, and the clinical effect is not inferior to similar products!
The cost of this fungal version of DNA awakening reagent is only one-tenth of that of similar products, and the cost of three-grade and five-grade reagents is only one-seventh; And as the progress continues, the cost will continue to fall!
However, there are fungal reagents with more than five grades, which are still being studied, and they will come up with qualified finished products after a short period of use! At that time, the fierce combat power of the Kingdom Ability Legion will surely increase again!
With the assistance of many experts sent by the Empire, the first "Xilong" type battleship finally successfully rolled off the production line and passed the technical test, which is no different from the model used by the Imperial Praetorian Guard itself!
In addition to this state-of-the-art production line, there are several similar production lines of various warships, such as the "Qinghai" product production line with slightly less energy efficiency, which is a gift from the Yun Family Power Venerable Society, and several others, which were privately obtained for him by the clone commando weaving, and now they have all been installed and debugged, and they have been put into use one by one!
Independently manufacturing all kinds of warships requires the cooperation of thousands of supporting factories! All kinds of warship shells, first-class main guns and secondary guns, energy reactors, main control photon computers, ship ecosystems, escape equipment, as well as various reconnaissance and detection instruments, supporting ammunition, mechas, space fighters and so on! There must be a professional department in charge!
To be able to solve these problems perfectly means that the country's industrial manufacturing level has reached a very high level!
After a long and unremitting effort, the kingdom has begun to truly have the atmosphere of a great power!
After more than a month of delay from the scheduled time, on this day, the supreme ruler of the Shuofeng Empire, Empress Fang Yuqing's camp, finally arrived near the capital of the kingdom!
Ye Qingyuan brought a large number of civil and military officials to greet him, and the venue of the welcome ceremony was chosen in the military fortress near the Void Tunnel.
The Prime Minister of the Kingdom, Zhong Zixia, and the Deputy Prime Minister Crassus are personally responsible for arranging all the matters in the welcome ceremony, which is the first time since the establishment of the Kingdom to welcome a visit from a foreign head of state, and it is also the empress of a super power, but there is no room for a difference!
Although the two parties have a marriage contract and can be almost a family, the foreign affairs activities between countries still have to be carried out in accordance with international practices, and they must not be sloppy at all!
Aster Blue was in charge of the security aspects of the welcome ceremony, and was patrolling back and forth in the starry sky near the fortress.
The empress's camp was about to arrive in two hours, and after several rounds of investigation, nothing unusual was found, and his heart relaxed slightly, and he ordered Yu Huang Xingyan, who had been following him, to continue his duties on his behalf, and went back to the fortress to rest for a while.
As the number one person in the kingdom's security department, his treatment is naturally not bad, he has his own independent villa suite in the fortress, the interior decoration is luxurious and elegant, and all the furniture and facilities are the most problematic specialties of the kingdom!
Entering the door and sitting down on the couch in the living room, the beautiful lifeform chemistry lieutenant immediately brought snacks and lattes.
Before he had even tasted a few bites, a message came from the photon computer, and he shook his head slightly depressedly: "Damn!" I don't even have the time to drink a glass of water! Do you still want people to live? ā
Complaining is complaining, but he still answered it immediately.
Crassus's image was straight ahead, only to see him smile and say, "Are you free?" I prepared a thin wine under it, I don't know if I would like to come over to enjoy it? ā
Aster Lan was a little surprised, his friendship with him can only be regarded as average, what is he doing with him drinking without hindrance?
"Why don't you come if you have a drink?" After pondering quickly in his heart, he replied with a smile:
"Wait a few minutes, it'll be there soon!"
With that, he tidied up a little, got up and went out.
The residences of the two important ministers were not far apart, and they arrived quickly.
The other party was already waiting at the door, and when he saw him coming, he stepped forward and greeted him politely.
The sumptuous banquet had already been prepared, and the two of them were seated separately, and the lifeform chemical butler sent the maids in the restaurant away for a while, and then closed the door.
Zi Yuan Lan looked at the young man with blonde hair and heavy eyes, and asked gently, "I don't know if there is anything that the adults are trying to talk about?" ā
When the kingdom was first established, most of the people who were in charge of the important weapons of the country were young people like them, and because of this, they had not been infected with the hypocrisy, pompousness, and flashy bad style of those old state officialdoms!
When everyone discusses problems, they all go straight to the point, and everything is based on efficiency! There are not so many polite words to waste time.
Crassus put down the wine glass he raised not long ago, and said with a solemn expression: "My lord, I called you here this time, but I have some questions in my heart, and I guess I want to ask for advice, I don't know if you are willing to solve your doubts for Zaixia?" ā
Aster Blue bowed her head slightly: "You say!" ā
"We are all courtiers of the kingdom, and we should put the good of the kingdom first in all things! Is that so? He asked.
"Of course! What's wrong with that? ā
Crassus raised his hand and raised the wine glass in front of him, took a sip and said, "Do you feel that the marriage between His Majesty and that empress has any impact on the interests of the kingdom?" ā
Zi Yuan Lan's movements couldn't help but stagnate, his dark eyes stared at him, and only after a moment did he say, "From the current point of view, it is very beneficial to the kingdom!" ā
"Yes, it can be said that the kingdom was able to have today's territory and construction achievements so quickly, and it is inseparable from the strong support of the empire! At present, there are hundreds of millions of experts and scholars from the empire in China, and technical elites help us to carry out construction! Crassus said quickly.
"The question is, how long can this last? Or how long can the honeymoon period last for two countries? If, due to some kind of change, the Empire no longer supports us, or even speaks ill of us, how should we respond at that time? ā
The smile on Zi Yuan Lan's face froze: "Why do you think that such a situation will definitely appear in the near future?" ā
"Quite simply, there is no eternal friendship between countries, only eternal interests!" Crassus knocked on the table and said,
"Supporting a country with absolutely fierce combat power in the Hellsoul Star Sea is undoubtedly advantageous for the current empire! That's why the empress is so generous! However, there is a premise for this, that is, the Daomang Kingdom must be obedient! ā
"At present, the interests of the two countries are highly common! In general, there will be no problems! However, in the near future, as the kingdom continues to expand to the outside world, and its territory and national strength grow, will the top of the empire still be so relieved of us? When they find out that the country is no longer willing to be an obedient little brother, will they still give me a good look? ā
Zi Yuan Lan said with some uncertainty: "The Empress is very fond of Her Majesty who is waiting for us, she ...... Wouldn't you do that? ā
"No matter how good the Empress is to Your Majesty, she is also the Empress of the Shuofeng Empire first and foremost, and behind her is the huge interest star layer of the Empire! She, of course, will only prioritize the interests of the Empire! Whether she wants it or not! "Crassus Road,
"When one day, the Empire's soldiers also point to the Prison Soul Star Sea, how should we deal with ourselves? Surrender? This country was fought by our Majesty and our Majesty from birth to death! How can it be handed over? If not, then the two countries will only have swords and soldiers to meet! ā
"Even if His Majesty becomes her man and sleeps beside her every day, this is an unavoidable problem!"
Aster Blue was silent.
To be honest, he really hadn't thought about it before! I just saw the benefits of cooperating with the Empire, but I didn't know that there was no free lunch in the world! How much you get now, sooner or later you will have to pay it back in the future!
From this point of view, it can be seen that the current kingdom is too dependent on the empire! You have to plan ahead! so as not to suffer losses in the future!
Ye Qingyuan's temperament, he understands it, and it is impossible for him to be sloppy on such a matter of principle for the sake of a woman! Then, it's really hard to say how long this marriage will have a continuous energy supply!
These two Majesties can be called the masters of great talents, and there will be no ambiguity when it comes to issues involving national interests! No matter how good the relationship between the two is, it's the same!
"How are you doing?" After a moment, Aster Lan raised her head, looked at him and asked slowly:
"Inform Your Majesty of your opinion? Prevent the marriage of the two countries? I'm afraid I'm going to have to turn against the empire now! ā
Crassus hurriedly waved his hand: "Of course I didn't mean that, I specially invited you to talk about this, just hoping that you can be prepared in your heart, don't wait until the situation changes suddenly in the future, the top of the kingdom will be passive everywhere!" ā
"You must have said that to more than one person, right?" Zi Yuan Lan smiled suddenly, "Moreover, you still want me to talk to Your Majesty and let him know what's at stake?" ā
"That's right, that's it! Your friendship with Your Majesty is far beyond what you can match, so it will be better if you come forward to persuade you! Crassus said calmly.
Zi Yuan Lan shook her head helplessly: "Isn't it just to make me a villain?" You! There are so many twists and turns in the stomach! ā
"However, I have to admit that you have a lot more about politics than we do! It's beyond my reach! In the future, I will ask you to pay more attention to this aspect! ā
"As it should be!" Crassus laughed.
After the 29,000 warships of all kinds of the Imperial Praetorian Guard Legion lined up in a neat queue and passed through the Void Tunnel in turn to meet the Kingdom Welcome Fleet, the Legion Commander Wu Yankun sent a signal to the follow-up fleet that everything was normal.
Soon, 80,000 royal guards and various warships of all kinds, which were one size larger in size and caliber of the first-class main battle guns, were also transmitted over one by one! This was followed by 50,000 flying saucer-shaped warships, which looked somewhat similar to the various warships of the Kilizakos that had been seen before.
This is the royal military base has been successfully developed, and began to be equipped on a large scale of "Qianyuan" all kinds of warships! Due to the extensive borrowing of the technology of the Kilizak people, it is precisely because of this that the energy efficiency of all kinds of warships has been greatly advanced compared to the "Xilong" products! Of course, the cost is surprisingly high!
More than 10 test models, the one that was finally finalized and decided to be put into production, cost as much as 850,000 crystal nuclei, and the cost of use is more than a little bit higher! It is estimated that large-scale equipment is required, and the investment required is not a small amount! At present, less than 150,000 ships have been produced, and 9,000 have been brought this time, and the rest are mothballed as strategic reserves.
Of course, the comprehensive combat ability of this sharp weapon is 5.5 times higher than that of the "Xilong" product! As long as the situation in the future requires it, large-scale equipment will not be a problem! Anyway, the empress is not short of money at the moment!
120,000 guards and various warships lined up, and at the mouth of the Void Tunnel, there were 3,000 giant royal ships with extremely gorgeous appearances! Thousands of powerful auras emanated unabashedly from those ships! Finally, there is the Empress's palace: the mobile interstellar fortress of the "Lihuang"!
As the mouth of the Void Tunnel was expanded little by little by a special Void Extension Method, the Huamei Palace with a diameter of three hundred kilometers slowly revealed a huge body! And successfully teleported after 20 minutes! In the end, there are 80,000 "Qianyuan" products and various warships of Konoeke!
In the welcome fleet in the distance, in the main control room of the command ship, Crassus's face became more and more solemn, and the hidden hole cards owned by the imperial family were much more powerful than he estimated to be an elephant! For example, the speed at which the palace travels through the Void Tunnel. Faster than all known Star Fortresses!
Even the Grand Lord's Palace of the Kilizakos took a lot more time to pass through the Void Tunnel than it did in the first place! Although the volume and mass of that palace are far better than the interstellar fortress in front of you, the difficulty is naturally much greater! However, it can also be seen that the technological level of the empire has progressed rapidly!
After the end of that war, the empire obtained a large number of wrecks of various warships of the Kilizakos, as well as war fortresses, and even the wreckage of the great lord's palace, which were all brought back to the imperial capital by the imperial side for dismantling and research, and after two years, many gratifying results have been achieved! And soon put into actual use.
At present, I see these two eye-catching things, and it is secretly unclear how many hidden means there are!
He looked back at the big guys present, Ye Qingyuan had a thoughtful expression on his face, it was obvious that Zi Yuan Lan had already informed him in private. The faces of the generals of the strategic command were a little complicated, but the ministers had not noticed it, and their expressions were still relaxed.
This regime is still too young! This is a great advantage, but in some cases, it may be a loss due to lack of experience!
Crassus had mixed feelings in his heart, and he began to think about how the future kingdom would cope with the pressure from the Empire. (To be continued.) )
