    Chapter 260 Untitled

    Yi Lexiang looked out the window at the bustling space camp, and saw that the space city that had grown from scratch had already begun to take shape.  "Our actions were a little bigger some time ago, and I'm worried that the Empire's High Command will notice something. If the 'Black Star Area' is exposed, the gains will outweigh the losses."

    "Do you want to wait until the defense system takes shape before attacking?"

    Yi Lexiang nodded.

    "As long as a few space cities are built, plus our fleet to defend this space gate, it will be more than enough." Wu Wei turned over the recorder in his hand, "It is estimated that it will take half a month. I don't know how fast Douglas's preparations are.  How fast, maybe we can still catch up.¡±

    "How is the situation over there, Chief of Staff?"

    "Not good! Douglas keeps asking about your whereabouts. After all, he is not a fool. The media reports about you are overwhelming, and the United Fleet has made such a big noise in the hinterland of the Imperial Alliance." Wu Wei chuckled, seeming to tell Douglas  Jiang Gang's situation is a bit gloating.

    "How did Chief of Staff deal with Douglas?"

    "What else can you do! It's just an explanation that you are not under the jurisdiction of the Charno Command and are an independent armed force developed behind enemy lines. The relationship with the military is just a cooperative relationship."

    Yi Lexiang burst into laughter, "Only ghosts believe it!"

    "I don't believe it even in ghosts! You are the commander-in-chief of the main fleet, and you also commanded the battle of the Kador Defense Line. These are all documented. Those people in the Alliance War Command are not imbeciles, how can they believe it."

    "Oh?" Yi Lexiang had an expression of interest on his face. He wanted to hear how the military department explained it.

    "President Ye Haoran later thought of a reason. He said that after the defeat of the Kador defense line, the main fleet of the original Charno side was completely dispersed. That is to say, after that, you gradually grew stronger behind enemy lines, and all your troops  You are a volunteer. The military department has no jurisdiction over you, nor does it provide material allocation. It is just that the two sides will take some joint military operations under certain circumstances."

    "The great defeat of Kador?"

    "Coping with the Alliance Theater Command's statement!"

    "Does Douglas believe it?"

    "It's your place, do you believe it?" Wu Wei glanced at Yi Lexiang with a look of helplessness on his face, "It's just a word game, everyone knows it. However, the alliance's inspection team is now sitting in the logistics department, and their eyes are wide open.  They are paying close attention to the allocation of logistics supplies, and it seems that they are ready to strangle us."

    Yi Lexiang shook his head in a funny way. Now that the fleet has a "black star area" that is so fat, what kind of supplies are needed there?

    "However, Chief of Staff Bo sent a special message asking us to moderate our actions during this period. Otherwise, if so many starships suddenly appeared on the battlefield, he would be passive in speaking."

    Yi Lexiang fiddled with the electronic pen in his hand and looked at the three-dimensional defense map thoughtfully.

    "You want to go back to Annuoji?" Wu Wei immediately guessed what Yi Lexiang was thinking.

    "The Academy of Sciences' induction battleship is still waiting for me to receive it!" Yi Lexiang nodded.  He was not surprised that Wu Wei could guess his thoughts. As the fleet's second-in-command, his adjutant, it would be a bit incompetent if Wu Wei couldn't even guess his thoughts.

    ¡°Those battleships interest you so much?¡±

    "And that school for supernatural powers!"

    "Is it more important than here?"

    "In a sense, yes. If the starship built by the Academy of Sciences is indeed built according to my ideas, it may fundamentally subvert the existing form of warfare."

    Wu Wei didn¡¯t say anything. He didn¡¯t understand much about technology.  But since Yi Lexiang said this, his curiosity about those new warships also became intense.

    "Who are you going to take?" He didn't stop Yi Lexiang.  Even President Ye and Chief of Staff Bo could not change Yi Lexiang's decision when they were in the capital, and no one could do it here.

    "Xin Qiang and Li Shaojun. Yatian, leave it to you, he can help you."

    Wu Wei shrugged indifferently, "Bring the Guards you want!"

    "No, the target is too big. Moreover, it may be a burden to take them with you." Yi Lexiang raised his hand to stop Wu Wei's words, "You don't know much about the operating mechanism of induction battleships. They don't need many operators.  The Guards remain here, and you can understand the importance of the 'Black Star Area' without me telling you."

    The fast cruiser "Noaston", with a crew of 67,000, is one of the fastest ship models in the Republic of Charno.  The entire ship continues the perfect streamline shape of ships sailing within the planet, although such a shape in a vacuum does not improve the performance of the ship.The speed of the aircraft is of any help.

    The hull of the 'Noaston' uses a special ceramic metal, which ensures the sturdiness of the hull shell and reduces the mass of the starship to the greatest extent possible. The gray hull only has one starship main body installed.  guns and a small number of ship-borne escort guns.  The two wings of the ship are equipped with 320 sets of missile launchers, which can launch 'Tiangang' class heavy space torpedoes and 'Tianheng' class cruise missiles.

    The 'Tiangang' class heavy torpedo has an effective attack range of 10,000 kilometers and a maximum attack range of 30,000 kilometers. The flying speed can reach up to one-fiftieth of the speed of light. This speed is enough to break through the defense systems of most starships, weighing up to five  A ton of combat explosives can easily destroy a main starship.  The 'Tianheng' class cruise missile has a maximum range of 150,000 kilometers. It is one of the longest-reaching cruise missiles. The warhead is equipped with the most advanced electronic camouflage system, the missile body is covered with a layer of invisible paint, and even the propeller tail flame is modified.  Special treatment to achieve sudden attack.

    With two kinds of star missiles, one far and one near, coupled with a super-wide electronic early warning, this type of starship quickly becomes a starship killer after being put into battle.  This type of ship was originally designed as a transportation ship for high-ranking commanders, but with its stunning performance on the battlefield, it quickly became an important part of the Starfleet auxiliary ship.

    Yi Lexiang is no stranger to the various data of the Noahston. Today, when beam weapons and kinetic energy weapons dominate, it is very admirable that people from the Academy of Sciences have found a new way to re-develop an interstellar ship with missiles as its trump card.  .  From the scattered memory fragments in the sea of ??consciousness, Yi Lexiang knew that the 'missile', an ancient post-propulsion weapon that has been controversial among military weapons scientists, has never actually left the interstellar warfare arsenal.

    On the other side of the command bridge, Xin Qiang and several staff officers were conducting simulated tactical deductions. This is one of the favorite games of most young commanders.  Xin Qiang is obviously no match for several young staff officers. This can be easily seen from the angry expression on his face.  He is an army mecha commander. Playing interstellar strategic deployment exercises with these regular military students who graduated from the Starfleet Academy is undoubtedly suspected of seeking abuse, but Xin Qiang doesn't seem to care about this too much. He always enjoys it.  .  A few minutes ago, Yi Lexiang tried to join his subordinates in this virtual military confrontation, but was rejected.  No one is willing to compete with him on the same stage. The reason is of course not because of his general rank but because no one is willing to bear the kind of blow where no one is left. After all, not everyone has Xin Qiang's eccentricity and good temperament.  Psychological quality.

    With nothing to do, Yi Lexiang could only walk around on the bridge, stand in front of the porthole and look at the gorgeous starry sky.

    The ¡®Noaston¡¯ is now traveling in the star field of the Holy Alliance, and they must make a circle and return to the actual control area of ????Charno.  Yi Lexiang was depressed and a little puzzled that there was no space gate that reached the Charno star field among the connecting star fields of the central space gate of the 'Black Star Area'.  No matter who built the 'Black Star Area', they are a race with quite advanced technology, but what is puzzling is that the jump points of the space gates are mostly in remote star areas.  Although there are still several space gates located in star fields that humans have not yet explored, and the fleet has not yet confirmed their locations, Yi Lexiang believes that those space gates must also be located in remote and desolate star fields.  What is this indicating?  Thinking of the huge reserve resources of the 'Black Star District', Yi Lexiang made a bold guess. Perhaps the builders of the 'Black Star District' were also in an interstellar war at that time, and were still at a disadvantage.  But there is another question here. Since there are so many space gates located in the star field controlled by humans, why have humans never discovered traces of the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations?  Yi Lexiang shook his dizzy head in distress. Could it be that the war between alien civilizations was cruel enough to destroy all traces of their existence?

    Yi Lexiang's thoughts were interrupted by Xin Qiang's scolding. It was obvious that he had once again become the loser in the confrontation just now.

    The soldiers of the Special Mecha Regiment have not set foot on real land for a long time. This return to Anokhi is undoubtedly a good vacation in the eyes of the soldiers.  In the early starry sky exploration, people who were in the space environment for a long time were prone to suffer from a disease called "starry sky syndrome". This disease does not cause damage to human body organs. To be precise, it is a psychological condition.  disease.  With the advancement of science and technology, and the gradual improvement of the starship's gravity simulation system and ecological simulation system, this kind of mental illness has gradually disappeared.  But as creatures that originated from land, most people still hope to live on real land.

    Yi Lexiang walked out of the command bridge and came to the smoking room at the end of the corridor.  Several older combat officers were puffing away in the smoking room.

    "General!" Several combat staff members stood up.

    Yi Lexiang waved his hand indifferently, indicating to them to be more casual.  Yi Lexiang took out an exquisitely packaged cigarette box from his arms. This was when he was installingLieutenant General Bu Yun gave it to him when he was in Nuoji.  Normally, Yi Lexiang doesn't smoke often, so there are still many cigarettes in his cigarette box.

    There were glimmers of light in the eyes of several staff officers, "Munro's golden smoke?"

    Yi Lexiang handed over the cigarette case in his hand, "Try it? This is real Munro cigarettes." Judging from the performance of several staff officers, these are probably old smokers.

    Several staff officers seemed a little embarrassed, but the temptation of cigarettes was obviously greater. They picked up the cigarette boxes, and soon the smoking room was filled with the unique fragrance of Munro cigarettes.

    "General, I heard that we are going to Anokhi to receive new warships this time?"

    "Hmm." Yi Lexiang nodded, this is no secret.  He squinted his eyes slightly, and under the influence of his mental power, he could feel the anesthetic substance in the cigarette slowly seeping from the lungs into the blood vessels, and then traveling to the head with the blood.

    "General, we heard from Commander Xin Qiang that these new warships don't need people to operate them?"

    Yi Lexiang didn't quite understand what these staff officers meant.  Humanity began to popularize the interstellar common language hundreds of years ago. Although this language is much simpler in word formation than Charno's native language, the unique language art of human beings still makes Yi Lexiang confused in many cases.

    Yi Lexiang nodded subconsciously.

    "Then will you no longer lead us?"

    Only then did Yi Lexiang suddenly realize.  He smiled and said, "Did Xin Qiang say that?"

    Several staff officers looked at each other and nodded.

    "The structural mechanism of new warships is quite complicated, but that does not mean that these starships do not need people to operate. The specific situation will be seen after Anokhi." Yi Lexiang flicked off the cigarette ashes, "Humans are always in war.  The main body, this is irreplaceable. However, the new warship may greatly reduce the need for operators. If all goes well, you will probably be assigned to actually command a starship."

    "Huh?!" Several staff officers opened their mouths in surprise.  Starships are the most complex and powerful war weapons built by humans in the process of conquering the universe. In order to maintain the normal operation of such a system, personnel responsibilities have also been refined to the extreme, including combat staff, logistics, technology, maintenance, operations, etc.  People have their own responsibilities and form a unit.

    This is a bit like the professional division of the advanced education system. Starship captains focus on starship command, combat staff focus on strategy, and so on. Operators in different links have different skills. In most cases, this role is not  Possibly interchangeable.  But what Yi Lexiang means seems to mean that as new warships are put into use, this modular operating model will be completely broken.

    "This is just my idea. The specific situation depends on how the Academy of Sciences builds this kind of starship. The new warship will still have to go through a period of experimentation and running-in, and it will not be possible to achieve this goal in a short time.  It¡¯s come true. Don¡¯t be too happy too early.¡±

    "We understand, General!" Several combat staff members replied in unison, but looking at the way they hurriedly finished smoking the cigarettes in their hands and rushed out of the smoking room with joyful expressions, I'm afraid the last sentence had a more perfunctory meaning.  Yi Lexiang looked at the back of the staff who couldn't wait to report the news to his colleagues, and shook his head in a funny way. Everyone has their own desires and ambitions. This may be the real driving force for human civilization to keep moving forward.  In contrast, his own desireless approach is more like a moral defender who does not eat the fireworks of the world.
