Unexpectedly, as the "Royal Highness the Prince", he had a head-to-head confrontation with the imperial consul Wang Zeren for the first time, and ended in a miserable defeat. Li Jingxian was almost furious.

He also has a way to fight back, that is, to expose Wang Zeren's ambition to use the "African" planetary crisis to seek the post of dictator, and completely tarnish Wang's reputation. But in this way the bottom line of the struggle within the Senate was completely broken.

No matter how the factions within the Senate and the interest groups behind them fight openly and secretly, and how these high-ranking cadres and brothers involved in them make waves, they must follow an eternal rule of the game - only within the circle! In other words, today's events can only be said to insiders. Including Jiang Ziyue and Karios, these people are already insiders.

If Li Jingxian had publicized the matter, the internal struggle of the entire Senate would have become public, and the foundation of the empire's political rule would have collapsed. This is something that no patriarch of any faction wants to see. After all, they were united in the direction of ruling the Roman people, and the essence of the struggle was actually limited to the level of the party, not the most fundamental political ideal.

So as a "too?" Child? Party? Party? Li Jingxian, who was also "well aware of the righteousness", held back his anger, buried his anger and resentment in his heart, and obeyed General Karios's order to order the fleet to set off.

When the fleet entered the faster-than-light voyage, Li Jingxian had more time to reflect on the 'lip' battle just now. Only then did he realize how superficial he was in front of the scheming Wang Zeren.

There was a problem with my own motivation from the beginning. In order to prevent Wang Zeren from taking advantage of the crisis on the planet "Africa" to become dictator, it is necessary to resolve the crisis as soon as possible, and there is no better plan than to vigorously reinforce it. However, Wang Zeren has the actual power to control whether to reinforce or not. If you want to seek a breakthrough in this aspect, you will undoubtedly attack the strengths of others with your own shortcomings.

Since the end of August last year, in the "New Rhine" planetary battle, the conservative senators promoted the former governor of the "New Rhine" planetary province, Adam? Christensen led a group of important officials to escape. Wang Zeren's subordinates took the opportunity to launch an inventory of the executive, legislative, and judicial branches of the "New Rhine" planet, cleaned up officials loyal to the conservatives in the provincial power center, and used Christensen's escape to make a big fuss and 'force' the conservatives to make concessions.

From then to now, Wang Zeren sang all the way and gained the upper hand in the internal struggle of the Senate. Li Jingxian understood very well that he was calculated by him this time, which undoubtedly strengthened his confidence.

"Let this guy be complacent."

Li Jingxian ended his introspection in his heart. What lies ahead of him will be an even more difficult battle. But at this time, he seemed not in a hurry to reinforce the planet "Africa", although he was still trying to 'force' Wang Zeren to order reinforcements not long ago. When the 200 battleships under his command completed the first stage of the faster-than-light flight mission and jumped out of space for routine maintenance, he ordered the time to postpone the restart.

Li Jingxian realized a problem that he had ignored earlier. Father and other elders such as Luo Ji had a much greater restraining effect on Wang Zeren in the Senate than himself, and it was much more effective. They must do their best to prevent Wang's proposal to nominate themselves as dictator, and before Wang's attempt succeeds, once the "Hannibal" fleet is destroyed and the planet "Africa" falls, then the responsibility for the defeat can be completely shifted to Wang, after all, he prevented the timely reinforcements.

"It's a bit cruel, but the surname Wang can risk this, so why shouldn't we?"

Li Jingxian couldn't help but have a smug smile on his face, and then quickly sent a notification ship to the capital planet "New Byzantium".

Jiang Ziyue, who set off first, was much more anxious in his heart than Li Jingxian, who came later. After changing to faster-than-light for the second time, he also ordered a postponement of re-entry to faster-than-light travel. However, instead of preparing to delay the reinforcements, as Li Jingxian did, he held a correspondence meeting with the commanders of the various sub-detachments and the main pilots.

"The level of Akuberi's faster-than-light travel must be increased, otherwise by the time we reach the planet 'Africa', the battle may already be over, and our army will be defeated at the speed of its defeat."

Everyone can understand the mood of the commander. Whether it is from the overall situation of national interests or because of personal reasons, Jiang Ziyue's urgent desire to rush to the planet "Africa" is reasonable.

However, the real technology does not do what you want. "'Mao'? The 800 cruisers of the Eastern Fleet had done their best and galloped at the speed of the Akuberi VI for nearly a hundred light-years. But there are still more than 2,900 light-years away from the destination. The Akuberi VI speed is the maximum practical faster-than-light equivalent of all these cruisers. It's not impossible to fly faster, and the engineers have reserved a higher faster-than-light margin for each of their ships, but that would be tantamount to overloading Akuberi and multiplying the risk.

"Sir, our cruisers are equipped with standard Akuberi engines. If it were faster, it should be possible in a short period of time, but if it is necessary to maintain a voyage of 3,000 light years, I am afraid that the situation is not so optimistic. Said a sub-detachment commander.

Jiang Ziyue was well aware of the cruiser's faster-than-light capabilities, and said confidently:

"I've calculated that if we can maintain a speed of 6.6 in Akubere, it won't take more than five days to get to the planet 'African'."

"Sir, this has reached the design limits of all cruiser Akuberi engines."

Benjamin on the same ship? Lieutenant Alfryk reminded loudly.

"Our Akuberi engines are all standard and simply cannot sustain such a large amount of anti-hydrogen production and annihilation for a long time. The energy supply is sufficient, but we also have to change to the speed of light frequently, and I am afraid that not only will we not save much time, but there will be many failures. ”

As the chief officer of the flagship raised strong objections, the voices of opposition also fluctuated.

Since the maximum emission rate of the positive and negative hydrogen particle injection system of the Akuberi engine is once per second, the standard Akuberi engine only has one set of injection system, so it can reach a speed-faster than light equivalent to 500,000 times the speed of light, which is already close to the physical limit.

If they are all equipped with non-standard Akuberi engines, then each cruiser has two sets of positive and negative hydrogen particle emission systems at the bow, so that the interval between the annihilation of the positive and negative hydrogen emission can be shortened to half a second (the two spraying systems work alternately, but the fastest emission speed of each system is still once per second), and the spatial "wave" motion with greater frequency and curvature can be 'induced', so that the faster-than-light equivalent speed is faster. However, this configuration more than doubles the cost of construction and use, and the failure rate is directly proportional to the complexity of the system structure, so most spaceships, including warships, do not use this kind of flashy-looking non-standard Akuberi engine.

As an outstanding commander in the Akuberi interstellar era, Jiang Ziyue is naturally very aware of the 'sexuality' of the warships under his command.

As his officers have said, it is possible to reach the 6.6 level of Akuberi, which is equivalent to 3.2 million times the speed of light, but it also comes with a higher failure rate and even a huge risk of engine damage.

The assessment of risk assessment and the needs of war is tilted to the side of the needs of war because of the extreme concern and concern for the beloved.

Jiang Ziyue said to everyone with a firm and resolute 'tone':

"I know everybody's worried. However, both the planet 'African' and the 'Hannibal' fleet are waiting for our reinforcements. So, I decided that all the ships would be overhauled once. Then we will sail faster than light at the speed of six .6 at the speed of Akuberi. For security reasons, I've reset the new faster-than-light booking and alternate out-of-light spatial coordinates, which will be sent to you later. Please keep in mind that on the way to Africa, a battleship that is unable to maintain the speed of 6.6 in Akuberi will continue to fly at a speed of 6 or higher, and change to the speed of light according to the alternate spatial coordinates. I hope that everyone will keep up, and if we can get there within five days, we will not fire a single shot, and we will scare the enemy into a 'pee', because they never expected us to move so quickly. ”

Although the last sentence is full of boasting, it still has a great encouraging effect. After all, the person who said this has won many legendary – even miraculous victories over the past two years.

"Sir, our ship is willing to follow you to the speed limit! Since the first time I took a spaceship, I haven't flown more than 6.1 percent of the speed of the Akuberi? ”

"Sir, let's have a race. See who gets to the planet 'Africa' first. ”

The sub-detachment commanders and captains were in high spirits. The atmosphere of worry was swept away and replaced by a rush of confidence and excitement.

Five hours later, the cruiser "Siegfried" was the first to depart.

When the ship reached half the speed of light, the Akuberi engine quickly 'ejected' the largest equivalent of anti-hydrogen particle beams and hydrogen particle beams for which it was designed. The two rays of light merged into one in an instant, and the wedge-shaped "Siegfried" disappeared into the endless void.

"Akuberi's speed is 6.6, 3.2 million times the speed of light, and I don't feel anything."

On the bridge, Alfryk comforted in his space combat suit. But his eyes were always staring at the surveillance image of the state of the Akuberi engine in the bridge space, but due to the dark 'colored' protective helmet of the space combat suit, everyone could not see his expression. His personal record for faster-than-light equivalent speed flight is only 1.4 million times the speed of light, which is the speed of Akuberi at 6.2 points.

"If I have the chance, I'd really like to 'get' a cruiser with non-standard Akuberi engines."

Jiang Ziyue said hopefully.

He served as a navigator on the experimental 'sex' cruiser Bilskirnir (Thor's palace) during his post-graduation internship. This cruiser equipped with a non-standard Akuberi engine, as its name suggests, was driven by Jiang Ziyue and once rushed to an unprecedented Akuberi speed of seven points - a superluminal equivalent speed of 9.5 million times the speed of light!
