Several transport ships of different sizes passed through the storm clouds one after another, and then released sections of starship hulls. There was already an engineering ship converted from a transport ship that assembled the segments together, and then a strange-shaped battleship appeared.
In the engineering ship, Li Ruobai said to Chu Jungui next to him: "Are you sure this thing can fight?"
Chu Jungui pressed the test button, "You will know after you try it."
It's a bit reluctant to call the assembled thing a starship. It looks like a steel pipe wrapped around a barrel, but there are several spikes protruding from all directions.
The starship is not big, only thirty meters long, and the steel pipe in the center of the hull takes up half of the volume.
As the test order was issued, the starship successfully completed the self-inspection, demonstrating amazing speed and flexibility.
"That's enough." Chu Jungui left the cabin first and flew towards the weird battleship with the help of the jet power of the armor itself.
"Wait!" Li Ruobai shouted, but Chu Jungui had already left the cabin. He shook his head helplessly and said to himself: "Madmen, they are all madmen."
Li Xinyi patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go. If you have any nonsense, we'll talk about it on the ship."
Li Ruobai shrugged, set the engineering ship to automatic on-orbit mode, and followed the girl to fly out of the cabin and enter the newly completed starship. The starship immediately started up, with up to four main engines turning to maximum thrust, and quickly moved away.
Li Ruobai was sitting in the co-pilot seat, constantly reporting data, "It is expected to enter the sub-light speed state in 45 minutes. After sailing in the sub-light speed state for 17 hours, it will enter the warning range of the mobile base Qingping. At present, everything is normal in the spacecraft, and the power is Reserve... 477 days. Do we need so much power?"
"It will be useful in battle." Chu Jungui concentrated on driving the starship.
"How many battles are you going to fight? Do you want to kill the Ninth Fleet together?"
"One shot of our main gun will consume 2 days of power reserve." Chu Jun returned.
"Are you really planning to use up the life of the main gun? But why don't I pilot it?"
"You are not a fighter pilot."
This answer made Li Ruobai completely lose his temper. The spaceship he was on was nominally a starship, but its flexibility and size were similar to those of a fighter jet, and its maneuverability was even better. This is due to the endless energy output of the crystal power furnace, which allows Chu Jungui to add high-power engines at will.
The starship quickly reached sub-light speed and headed towards the mobile base.
In Green Apple, the lieutenant general looked at the transport fleet that was always motionless, with an extremely ugly expression on his face. Lin Xi suddenly said: "Give me a fleet and I will snatch it! Anyway, all the responsibilities will be borne by me alone."
The lieutenant general shook his head and said, "It's too late."
I saw two high-speed starships breaking away from Qingping and heading towards the transport fleet at full speed. The transport fleet began to turn around and began to prepare for the space jump.
The vice-admiral pondered for a moment, then came to the command podium and said, "Receive the communication from that fleet."
A moment later, the image of a smooth-looking officer appeared on the command podium and said, "I am the commander of the task force. Hello, Lieutenant General Lu."
"We have received information about the supplies carried by your fleet. This batch of supplies is very important to the battle in this theater. I don't know why you want to jump again. Where is the destination?"
"The order I received is to return to the Caimen Galaxy. As for this batch of materials, there is another use."
Lu Queyun frowned and said, "If this is the case, I will requisition this batch of materials as the acting commander of the theater. Please cooperate."
The smooth officer smiled and said: "Lieutenant General Lu, if we want to requisition, your military rank seems to be insufficient. In addition, our batch of materials has been designated for a designated purpose. Are you sure you want to requisition them?"
There is a trap in these words. Lu Queyun gritted his teeth and said, "Sure!"
The smooth officer turned to his men and said, "Write it down, Lieutenant General Lu is going to requisition our supplies." Then he turned back and said with a smile: "Lieutenant General Lu, I can only refuse your order. If you must force the conquest, then I have no choice but to resist. I also have a convoy fleet. Although it is not comparable to the power you have in your hands, my soldiers are not afraid of life and death in the face of oppression. . How about it, do you definitely want to start a civil war?"
Lu Queyun seemed a little embarrassed. He did not expect that the other party would be so tough. It is not feasible to really start a war, and the fault lies entirely with the Ninth Fleet.
He pondered for a moment and then said: "Then I will ask the superiors to coordinate."
"Excuse me." After saying that, the smooth officer cut off the communication.
Xu Zhanfeng's image appeared on the command platform next to him. He had watched the entire communication between the fleet and the base. When the communication ended, Xu Zhanfeng laughed loudly and said: "The old guy's deflated look is really funny! He finally let out a bad breath."
The smooth officer now put on a flattering look and asked, "Are you arriving soon? The residence has been prepared for you, specially designed by a master."
Xu Zhanfeng nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "We won't leave yet."
"Not leaving?" The officer was a little surprised and said, "This batch of supplies has been designated to be delivered to the second theater, and there is not much time left."
"How long can we stay?"
"No more than three days at most."
"Then stay for a week. It doesn't matter if you arrive a few days late. I will tell my second uncle."
Seeing what Xu Zhanfeng said, the officer could not object directly and asked tentatively: "What are we staying for?"
Xu Zhanfeng sneered, "If you don't do anything, just show them these supplies. Let them have a taste of what it's like to eat without food. If you can inspire them to grab it, that would be great. I would like to see it and rob it. How can the Lin family suppress the charge of supplying military supplies to other war zones? One lieutenant general is far from enough."
The officer understood and quickly said, "You still have better methods." After flattering him, he then said cautiously: "Is there any risk in doing this? Those people in the Lin family are unreasonable. If they jump over the wall in a hurry and do something, the supplies are a small matter, but your safety is a big deal! If something unexpected happens to you, I can’t bear it even with all my brains!”
Xu Zhanfeng laughed and said disdainfully: "Look at your timid character! What are you afraid of? Even if they take action, they are just robbing things. If they kill people, the nature will change. Ordinary soldiers can defeat them even if we are dead. I can’t eat it and carry it around, let alone hurt me.”
The officer smiled apologetically and said: "Yes, yes, you are right. The Ninth Fleet is a regular fleet of the dynasty. If they really dare to open fire, they may be charged with treason! But..."
"But what?"
"What if these guys are insidious and send some star thieves here?"
"This is a war zone, where did the Star Thieves come from?"
"They can send someone to pretend!"
Xu Zhanfeng sneered, "Are star thieves that easy to pretend to be? Where can they find starships without traces?"
