The war is going on.
Chu Jungui stood in front of the tall French window, staring at the huge and busy dock below. A Dreadnought-class battleship for its own use is being built, and the densely packed engineering ships are like bees in and out of a hive, constantly coming in and out. There is also an obvious scorch mark on the hull of this battleship, which looks a bit strange.
The scorch marks were left by the starship of the Republic of Harvey. This capital ship was dragged onto the battlefield when its completion rate was only 65%, and it didn't even have time to install a shield. During the pursuit, it was counterattacked by Aiman who jumped over the wall and was hit by a space torpedo. As a result, several meters of the armor layer was damaged and needed to be reinstalled. The Dauntless class is completely operated by the Mist Clan sub-body, so it can go on the battlefield when its completion level is still very low. Although its combat power is far from the standard, it is a battleship after all, and it is higher than the heavy patrol ship anyway. After the battle, it was pulled back to the dock to continue construction, and is now more than 85% complete.
The trouble for Chu Jungui was not the construction of the starship, but the handling of the prisoners and trophies. In the last battle, the Harvey expedition fleet was completely wiped out. 70% of the starships finally surrendered and became Chu Jungui's trophies. Except for a few that escaped, the rest were sunk. The unexpected harvest was the massive supplies carried by the expedition fleet, a large number of transport ships and four large bases. The base, supplies and landing personnel can meet the occupation requirements of 10 star systems, which fully highlights the ambition of Marshal Aiman.
Chu Jungui knew that there were loopholes in the dynasty's defense line, and the garrison fleets in many galaxies had been depleted. A full squadron like Aiman was so powerful that it was really irresistible. If Aiman hadn't arrived at Chu Jungui's first stop, he might have been able to seize five or six galaxies for him now.
In addition to supplies, personnel also gained a lot. Ayman brought 500,000 marines, 1 million support personnel, and 1.5 million occupation personnel, including officials, technicians, engineers, and farmers. By taking these people on the expedition, Aiman obviously wanted to occupy the territory permanently, but in the end, it was easier for Chu Jungui to pack it up.
Outside Chu Jungui's field of vision, several huge space stations were floating in an empty deep sky. Calling them space stations is a stretch. They are actually just a few large, boxy iron boxes. These large iron boxes are the prisons used to hold prisoners of the Harvey Republic. Because there are so many prisoners, they were built quickly and slowly with light-year productivity.
The interior of the iron box is divided into ten floors. Each floor is very empty, without any furniture or partitions. It is just a large empty square. The squares on every floor are now crowded with people and noisy.
In the corner of the square, a small group of people gathered, and there was an open space around them. This corner is not far from the air outlet, so it can be slightly away from the odor that fills the square.
In the center of the crowd, Aiman sat against the wall with a dark face, a full beard, and angry eyes with a blank expression. A general next to him was roaring angrily: "This is a crime! This is abuse! There are only a few toilets for so many people, not even a place to bathe. There are no beds or bedding, so they just leave us here. There’s not even a chance to negotiate!”
Someone next to me said: "Save your energy and say less."
The general was obviously very energetic and was about to say more when Ayman opened his eyes and asked: "How long have we been imprisoned for?"
"71 days and 10 hours."
Aiman closed his eyes again.
When they first arrived here, they exploded on the spot. There is nothing here, just a few toilets on each floor and no bathroom at all. What I eat is always high-energy food with the same taste. I only have enough water to drink, and I have to be careful even when I wash my face. At that time, some people wanted to riot, but there was nothing that could be smashed. Then someone discovered that the structure of the space station was not particularly strong, and they immediately scared everyone away from doing anything. This is space, most people don't wear armor, and even a small hole in the space station will kill you.
Since they were imprisoned here, the people from Light Years have never appeared again. They only put food and water through the interface at fixed times every day. The lights in the space station are always on, there is no day or night, and all time is kept by the personal terminals brought by everyone.
After the initial anger, they desperately found that they seemed to be forgotten by the universe, unable to contact the outside world, and even light years away. Every time Lightyear delivers supplies, it's an unmanned spacecraft that just drops the stuff and leaves.
No one has the idea of escape, and there is no escape in outer space. Even if you have a battle armor with you, you can survive in outer space for a short period of time, and it can only last for a month at most. This place is so remote that even distress signals cannot be sent out. It will be several years before other galaxies receive the signal.
At this time, McMillan's communication request appeared on Chu Jungui's communication channel again. This was already the fourth time. The previous three times were directly rejected by Chu Jungui. However, there were several communication requests from the official Harvey Republic. Ten times, all rejected without exception. Chu Jungui looked at the time and finally pressed agree.
When the image of McMillan appeared, his face was naturally very ugly. As the top figure in the community, with a transcendent status equal to Dr. Zero and Austin, when had he ever suffered such injustice? He was rejected for three consecutive inter-star field communications. But for a major event involving millions of people, he had to be patient and contact Chu Jungui.
"Hmph!" McMillan made a disgusting face.
Chu Jungui was not angry, and reached out to press the button to cut off communication. McMillan was suddenly taken aback and shouted helplessly: "Wait a minute!"
"Is something wrong?" Chu Jungui asked.
McMillan took a deep breath, calmed down his anger, and said, "I want to talk to you about the prisoners of the Harvey Republic. How many people have you captured in total?"
"About...more than 4 million."
McMillan waved over a list and said, "If you put Aiman and everyone on the list back, there will be no follow-up action in Harvey Republic."
Chu Jun Guidan said: "If they still have extra troops, then come. I can still pretend and don't care about millions more prisoners."
MacMillan stared at Chu Jungui, and after a moment he said: "The failure of the dynasty is doomed, don't go too far! After Harvey's matter is resolved, their president and I will come forward together, and we can give you a neutral position after the war." , to avoid the consequences of defeat.”
"Then let's wait until the dynasty is really defeated." Chu Jungui was about to cut off the communication again.
McMillan turned livid with anger and said, "Let Aiman go and I'll tell you the source of the intelligence."
"Deal." Chu Jungui agreed very quickly this time.
