Chapter 957 The Queen's Crazy Plan (Part 2)
The reason why Queen Qi made such crazy actions was not that she was really crazy, but that she had taken the necessary measures to protect herself.
Of course she understood the current situation of the Bojiang clan, and also understood that it was only a matter of time before the Starlight Empire unifies the Star Sea. When Yun Haoyu led the main legion of the Empire to advance westward, the outcome of the Bojiang Empire would never be much better than that of the Miriam clan and Zhanying Wang Ting.
Therefore, the voices of the peace talks between the court and the central government began to gain the upper hand. Coupled with the mother's opinion, it is actually the only feasible thing at the moment and can save the Bojiang clan.
However, this is definitely not good news for her. No matter what the final peace talks are, how much the Bojiang clan needs to pay for peace, as a hardliner, she will definitely be sacrificed. At that time, not only will the throne be lost, but it will even be a problem whether she can survive.
She didn't want to accept such a fate, so she could only take risks and continue to be tough to the end. And as long as her plan could happen to be successful, the Bojiang clan could also be rescued. At that time, she would be the hero of the empire, and no one would pursue how many tribesmen she had killed by her means.
However, not long after, she realized that things were not as simple as she had originally thought, but by the time she understood, everything was too late.
...
"Your Majesty, the testing procedures for the new batch of Death Starships have been completed." Jin Yue reported to Yun Haoyu who came to inspect the site.
"All crew members, various supporting legions, and related combat readiness materials are in place. As long as His Majesty has no objection, these strategic weapons will be able to join the Imperial Legion and participate in combat readiness duty missions immediately."
"Since that's the case, then that's it." Yun Haoyu smiled and signed his name one by one on the ten test reports submitted.
In the more than a year after the emperor made his second expedition to the eastern Star Sea, Base Zero began to be ordered to build the second batch and the third batch of death starships. Under the personal supervision of Jin Yue, a total of ten death starships had completed the assembly of the main equipment, and they could be fully completed and put into use only after a few rare materials were in place.
Later, Wang Ting was destroyed, and all kinds of rare materials that had accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years of volleyballs fell into the hands of the empire, ensuring that the construction of the Death Starship was completed as scheduled.
Since the cracking and research project of Yuangu Technology has been going smoothly, among the ten death starships that were in service, many newly learned technologies from the Imperial Academy of Sciences have been adopted since the sixth, and combined with the various problems and shortcomings discovered by the previous death starships in service in actual combat, the derivative models developed after comprehensive improvements have been made.
The appearance and size of the improved Death Starship are not much different from previous models, but by greatly optimizing many internal systems and equipment, the overall combat performance has been improved by about 40% to 50%. The power of the main gun, charging speed, anti-interference ability, detection range and other key indicators have been significantly improved, while the consumption of energy and various material accessories has been reduced by nearly ten percentage points.
Ten death starships, plus the five that have not yet been completed, were named "Shengyuan", "Yu Meng", "Jiuchen", and "Yanlong", respectively, which correspond to the first batch of star fields under the jurisdiction of the Duchy of Starlight when Yun Haoyu first started his career.
From this, the number of death starships in the Starlight Empire has reached 19, all of which belong to the Imperial Guard Corps. Although some death starships are currently commanded by several important military officials, their ultimate control authority is always in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor, and they only have the right to use it.
This strategic weapon that is enough to affect the rise and fall of the country, just like the nuclear button of the Earth era, must be controlled by the supreme leader. In today's imperial strategic weapon sequence, the Death Starship ranks fourth, so Yun Haoyu would never give it completely to a certain important official to take charge, so as not to have some unpredictable consequences. This is a system problem, and it is not that he can't believe in these senior generals now.
Yun Haoyu got on the speeding car surrounded by his ministers and began to inspect the huge base group from the air. In addition to the fifteen huge engineering platforms used to assemble the Dead Starship, a giant with a diameter of thousands of kilometers was in sight deep in the base group.
Jin Yue explained: "This asteroid obtained from the Borostaus has been fully understood after more than two years of research by the Imperial Academy of Sciences, and has used certain technologies from the Original Ancient Gods to optimize and improve some of its systems. Now the new crew has been trained and can be put into use at any time."
"Okay, let's name it 'Chiyou'." Yun Haoyu said.
"This big guy is obviously much more powerful than the Death Starship. I don't know how long the empire needs to wait before it can completely build strategic weapons of this level on its own."
"This..." Jin Yue thought for a while, shook his head gently and said:
"It may not work at the moment. Its technical requirements for the Empire's heavy manufacturing industry are too high. Unless it comprehensively improves the entire Empire's heavy industrial system, it is not enough to be competent for such super projects. Even if you start to increase investment in related industries now, you have to wait for at least thirty years to meet the conditions for trying."
Yun Haoyu smiled without any attention and said, "Then you can start thinking now. You can draw up a detailed plan. Don't be too anxious. Fifty years are not too late. You can invest some every year. When the conditions are ripe in the future, such good things will naturally be created."
For the emergence of the Death Starship, the empire has invested too much manpower and material resources. If we want to build a big guy of this specification, all kinds of investments will undoubtedly increase in geometric proportions. Even if the current imperial government can afford it, it will not be solved in one or two years when it is released. It will not be able to catch up with the upcoming war, so there is no need to rush for a moment.
Moreover, the blue-gray planet obtained from the Dilofenx civilization has also been brought back to the imperial capital. Experts from the Academy of Sciences are organizing people to conduct research. After the restoration in the future, it will become a new killer weapon in the Imperial Legion!
Then, Bernard, who was responsible for the equipment and logistics of the Imperial Legion, began to report on the production of various military supplies. He was already familiar with all kinds of important data. No matter what Yun Haoyu asked about it, he could answer them smoothly.
Because the manufacturing and use cost of Death Starship is too high, as a supplement to the high-end combat power of the Imperial Legion, the research and development and production of the mobile interstellar fortress has not stopped. At present, the most advanced "Shenglong"-class interstellar fortress has begun mass production. Hundreds of fortresses will be completed and will be put off the production line every month. The output of the "Zulong"-class is gradually decreasing and will be completely stopped within the next two years.
After several years of war, as the empire's territory grew larger and stronger, it was already in the condition that almost all the imperial legions had been fully redesigned. Through the multiple optimization and integration of the military industry system, old warships such as "Yunshark", "Xilong", and "Sky Fire" have been retired and no longer produced.
Even the improved Qianyuan class warships are currently reducing production and will close all production lines within the next two years. Now the main battleships of the Imperial Legion are the "Kun-Yin" series, and more advanced "Chengying" class warships that started mass production two years ago. The latest generation of "Hanguang" series warships have completed ground static testing and will be successfully launched soon.
According to the latest statistics from last quarter, the current Imperial military manufacturing system can provide enough warships and various supporting equipment to form twenty main reorganized legions every month. The reserves of various military supplies can meet the cost of the existing imperial army for three years of war, which is not the output of military bases directly belonging to the royal family.
In addition to the imperial fleets guarding the border and major provinces in the hinterland, there are currently hundreds of elite legions stationed near Tianhua Province alone. In addition, the imperial guards controlled by His Majesty the Emperor himself, even if the four major alien civilizations in their heyday combined, they cannot fight against them.
"Since you've been prepared almost, let's go on a war in five days." Yun Haoyu said at last.
"We will solve this Bojiang Empire sooner, let's consider the affairs of the Dark Prison Mingfeng Clan."
The Miliam Empire and the Zhanying Wang Ting have been destroyed. The Yanwei clan is completely dependent on human civilization. At present, only the Bojiang clan is left, with a population of less than 100 billion. With the power of many death starships, it will not take long to pack it up.
Of course, before going to war, some things have to be handled properly.
After the inspection, Yun Haoyu, who returned to the imperial palace, hurriedly took lunch and went to the empress's harem.
"Your Majesty." Feng Lanxi handed Yun Ke, who had just fallen asleep in her arms, to the maid beside her, and greeted her with a smile:
"The political affairs have been handled, may I... have encountered some difficulties again."
Yun Haoyu sat down straight, grabbed the teacup beside him and drank it for two sips, then hesitated and said: "It can be said that, but it is not a state affairs, but..."
Feng Lanxi blinked her beautiful eyes, guessed a little in her heart, and asked with a smile: "That's family matters, but the palace is peaceful at the moment, and there seems to be nothing to make His Majesty embarrassed, unless... it's for Xiao Muhan's business."
"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from you." Yun Haoyu breathed a sigh of relief and said to her in a negotiated tone:
"What do you think she... should do it?"
Feng Lanxi held his shoulders, sat in his arms, and then said gently: "Your Majesty already has an idea in his mind, so just do it according to his own ideas. Why should hesitate? Xiao Muhan has been thinking about it for so long in the cold palace and now he should come out."
"But Qing Yue and the others are probably not convinced. If they want to get upset, I will be in a difficult situation." Yun Haoyu sighed and said,
Chapter completed!
