There are thousands of engineers flying in and out of the mobile base of the Jolly Roger Corps, busy non-stop. There are four engineering ships parked next to the base, carefully towing engine rooms that are hundreds of meters square. Most of the engine compartments that were pulled out looked at least 90% new, while the ones that were replaced were rusty and looked like they were not far from being scrapped.
Hathaway stood in the command cabin of the flagship, looking at the mobile base not far away through the long floor-to-ceiling window, and kept giving orders: "The base still has 12 secondary guns with a service life of more than 300 years? Go and look for them in the inventory. If you have any old items that are less than 10 years old, replace them with new ones.”
The staff officer next to him said: "There are only 6 doors in the inventory that meet the requirements."
The little princess frowned slightly: "Then go to the scrap station to find it! As long as it can still move."
The staff officer wiped his cold sweat and was about to take the order when the little princess warned again: "Remember to wipe the bright spots before installing it. You can't repaint it again."
The staff officer left in a hurry.
The middle-aged man next to him who had been silent all this time praised: "She is indeed my daughter!"
The little princess gently combed her blond hair and said, "The loss is small, how can I be worthy of Morgan?"
She then ordered the replacement of a batch of rescue capsules. This time, they were all the most advanced models. Even if they hit Planet 4, their chances of survival would be high.
The middle-aged man didn't say much. He just stood by with a smile and watched her make preparations before departure. At this time, the little princess suddenly remembered something and turned around and said: "Dad, I have no money. Can you give me 5 billion first?"
"No problem." The middle-aged man's smile froze, but he secretly gritted his teeth and waved his big hand, and 5 billion was transferred to Hathaway's account.
The little princess smiled sweetly, then straightened her face and said, "Okay, Father, I still have something to do, you can go about your business."
The middle-aged man smiled helplessly. Sure enough, it was still a familiar scene. When he asked for pocket money, he became his father, and when he got the money, he immediately became his father.
He shook his head and left, but even though he left the command cabin, an interface had quietly opened in his consciousness, which was Hathaway's account status. As a father, he always has to care about his daughter. This money is not a small amount and he needs to know where it is going.
Hathaway didn't know she was being monitored yet. She was busy with everything at the moment, so she just gave a hurried order and continued to work on 'replacing old' equipment.
This order is to purchase Lightyear's shares at market price.
The middle-aged man was a little stunned, thought about it carefully, and just shook his head. He took a look at the specific process of the acquisition and was surprised again.
Lightyear's stock price has been rising steadily, breaking through several round numbers one after another. The trend is extremely fierce, and it is approaching the hundred yuan mark again in the blink of an eye. Although the middle-aged man is not a professional in finance, he is still an expert. At a glance, he can tell that someone is vigorously collecting chips. Hathaway's market order simply added fuel to the fire, and this is the result. Originally, Lightyear had been suspended for several months, and the stock price was eager to fall to single digits. However, today it recovered to less than half. However, the middle-aged man was a little confused. In the past few days, Lightyear's stock price had quietly risen from 11 to 40. Who did this?
At this time, Hathaway's consciousness returned to her account and she let out a light sigh. Apparently, Lightyear's stock price was unexpected and she didn't buy much. After thinking for a moment, Hathaway adjusted the upper limit of the market price from 100 to 150, and then continued to work on her work.
On another distant planet, Kun Youran opened the market and took a look at today's harvest...it was extremely small.
He stared at the number of traded shares for a long time before confirming that it was 100,000, not one million, let alone tens of millions. He glanced at the stock price and spit out his drink.
He wiped the screen angrily, stared at it carefully for a long time, and finally confirmed that the light-year was now 145, not 45. Another particularly eye-catching figure on the screen showed that Kun's current shareholding accounted for 4.99% of the entire Light Year. Just 0.01% difference can round up the whole number, but this gap needs to be filled by more than 150. Kun now has no money left.
Kun paced the room, angrily hurling various expletives. If this gap is not repaired, it will feel like there is a thorn in his heart. Nothing he eats tastes good, and he has no energy in anything he does.
After dozens of futile attempts, Kun finally grabbed the terminal, dialed the Securities and Exchange Commission's hotline, and gritted his teeth: "I want to report someone for insider trading..."
"This is the N7703 galaxy, now..."
Chu Jungui entered this passage into the communication system word by word, and then shot the signal into the orbit through the antenna that was tens of meters high, and then sent it to Chenta through the repeater on the orbit, using the oldest method. Send news back to the dynasty.
In fact, the message can be copied and sent automatically every day. But Chu Jungui always insisted on manual input. This sense of ritual seemed unnecessary, but every time he sent a message, Chu Jungui was telling the dynasty and the world that there was a group of people still fighting here.
However, when sending the message today, Chu Jungui's heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason and he almost missed the time. This wave of heart palpitations came out of nowhere, and he vaguely felt as if something terrible was about to happen. The so-called major events, of course, do not include the new Marine Corps that just landed. War will not scare the test subjects.
On the map in front of Chu Jungui, you can see a large number of landing ships being deployed. Chariots are driving out of the landing ships like ants, and the number of mechas is several times more than the normal ratio. The most eye-catching thing is that hundreds of assault boats flew out from the two landing ships. This time, after shaking a few times, they hovered steadily at low altitude without crashing like the previous batches.
The view of the map was as clear as ever, so clear that Chu Jungui could clearly see the numbers on the mechas and tanks, the 7th Marine Corps.
Judging from the quantity of equipment, the 7th Marine Corps is actually a legion, with 100,000 soldiers, equipped with more than 10,000 land combat vehicles, 2,000 heavily armored mechas, and thousands of assault boats. Among them, there are more than 300 assault boats with the function of heavy ground fire support.
Chu Jungui quickly matched these pieces of equipment in the database and obtained the information. The firepower of the two support assault boats exceeds that of the Ark, and the remaining assault boats can resist the attacks of existing rapid-fire cannons.
When the Federation really started to exert its strength, the environment of Planet 4 suddenly no longer posed much of an obstacle, and the light-year advantage was completely lost.
The 7th Marine Corps only took 12 hours to deploy and rest, and the vanguard had already set off. Chu Jungui sent a small group of troops to test, but they were all quickly defeated. The 7th Army's assault was swift and fierce. After defeating the blocking enemy, it did not stop and continued forward, leaving all the rear and remaining enemies to the original landing troops to deal with.
On the first day, the 7th Marine Corps won 6 consecutive battles and advanced 700 kilometers. The 8,000 kilometers left by Chu Jungui immediately seemed less abundant.
On the second day after landing, the 7th Army advanced another 800 kilometers. Chu Jungui tried to cut off the connection between several advancing troops, but their firepower was too strong, and there were hundreds of assault boats patrolling in the air for support. As long as the battle lasts for more than 5 minutes, a large number of assault boats will appear on the battlefield.
At this time, the performance of the tanks used by Guang Nian was no longer as good as that of the 7th Army's tanks. It often took more than ten shots to destroy a 7th Army tank, while the 7th Army could kill it within 10 shots. Destroy the Lightyear Chariot, which is famous for its defense. As for the heavily armored mecha, its defense is even more astonishing. It can often take dozens of shots and still shoot wildly.
After two days of contact battle, Chu Jungui withdrew all his troops. Without harassment, the 7th Army did not advance wildly. On the third day, it only advanced 700 kilometers before stopping to rest and wait for the follow-up troops to catch up.
At this time, in front of Chu Jungui were the remains of three tanks and a mecha, which were all snatched back from the battlefield by soldiers who risked their lives. The researchers had already dismantled and analyzed them immediately. At this moment, they had formed reported.
"Chariots and mechas are equipped with dedicated control master brains. Their performance is only two generations behind. However, they are equipped with three layers of protection. Their anti-interference ability is 700 times that of normal master brains. They can be used normally on Planet 4 unless encountering Otherwise, it will be difficult to damage if there is a thunderstorm. The power system has also been modified and is specially designed for Planet 4. All vulnerable parts have strengthened electromagnetic protection, so they are not afraid of strong radiation environments..."
Chu Jungui listened quietly. Sure enough, the equipment of the 7th Army were all targeted modified versions, and the corresponding cost was at least three times that of the standard version. In the past few battles, it seemed that Chu Jungui had suffered a bit, but in fact, the price of a 7th Army tank was worth 120 light-year tanks, but the combat power of a single tank was only twice that of a light-year tank.
If calculated in terms of price, the loss ratio between Lightyear and the 7th Army has long exceeded 1:20. However, the Federation can afford to lose no matter how much, but Lightyear cannot.
As soon as Chu Jungui's consciousness moved, the map moved to 6,000 kilometers away. The first energy base there has been completed. Based on the first energy base, three new energy bases are being built at the same time, and they will be completed in one day. In addition to the three energy bases, nine more energy bases have begun to dig foundations and provide building materials.
Each of the 13 energy bases is equivalent to the ten largest hydropower stations in the home star era. Together, the power of these energy bases has exceeded the energy supply of half the planet in the home star era.
Tens of kilometers away from the energy base, six landing ships have been fully deployed and turned into a large-scale temporary base. Surrounding the core of the base are more than a dozen engineering and base-type arks, and several brand-new factories are being established. In the new base, the most eye-catching facility is a huge cylindrical building that rotates at a constant speed.
At the top of the building is a feeder, which constantly sprays light smoke. This is actually molecularized food, and the proportions are carefully designed. Inside the building is Brother Dao's body, filling the entire interior of the column. Below is a bottom plate with countless pores. The excess body that Brother Dao grows will be squeezed out of the pores, and then cut into countless pieces by the whirling whittling knife. Thin slices and sent to the war beast breeding pool.
