Chapter 780 Spending money to buy glory

Cai E and Jiang Baili, while looking at the grand capture scene in front of them, discussed what to do. This capture scene must be perfectly preserved. Together with the videos of the Sun War Fortress firing, it will be used for domestic propaganda.

, and also need to be widely disseminated to surrounding countries.

"It seems that after this battle is over, cleaning up the stall will be a troublesome task. However, I do like this kind of trouble, haha."

Cai E smiled heartily, but Jiang Baili could only joke sourly on the other side of the Lost Fortress.

"Lao Cai, if you are too busy right now, I will clean up the battlefield for you."

"No matter how much trouble there is, I won't bother you, Military Prime Minister. Haha, you should just guard the fortress with peace of mind."

While the two were chatting, thinking about how to make the next capture scene orderly, grand, and sensational, unexpectedly an urgent order came from the empire.

The order was personally conveyed by Imperial Operations Minister Su Yuren, who is also the Imperial Operations Department Minister.

"Prime Minister Jiang and Shuai Cai, congratulations to you two. You two have achieved such a great victory together. How about you? Are you preparing to clean up the battlefield?"

Su Yuren has a very good relationship with both of them. As a big boss in the empire, there are no disputes. Sometimes political disagreements can always be resolved in the empire's enlightened political atmosphere.[

"Lao Su, if you come here at this time, is it because His Majesty has an order?"

Cai E suddenly became serious and stood up.

Su Yuren also looked calm and said, "Yes, His Majesty asked me to convey the latest order to you two. In view of the current changes, the prisoner matter will not be carried out for the time being, and will be taken care of first. Your Majesty will issue a follow-up order soon. Hurry.

If it's half an hour, if it's full, it'll be one or two hours."

"Yes! Confirm the order."

Cai E stretched out his hand and pressed on the virtual light area in front of him, accepting the order. It was indeed an order given by His Majesty himself.

After ending the call, Jiang Baili was slightly confused, but then he and Cai E laughed almost at the same time.

"It seems that the Orions are going to take the high-level route."

The two of them laughed at the same time. Not only did they not think that this high-level route was bad, but they were looking forward to it. Your Majesty's road, you Orion people without money or resources cannot even think of taking it.

Of course, His Excellency Hu Kun, President of the Orion Alliance, also understands this truth.

Although the Orion Alliance is a new second-level civilization, it can be considered a huge civilization compared to the Chinese Empire.

However, Hu Kun could not be tough every time he dealt with Zhang Shusheng. The reason is that the Alliance always seeks from the Empire. In addition, the President of the Alliance may change after a few years, and power changes, but the Chinese Empire is an imperial system.

Zhang Shusheng himself is unfathomable. In contrast, Hu Kun, who only wanted to secure the position of president with the help of external forces, showed no airs or pretentiousness to Zhang Shusheng.

The two of them have been getting what they want for a long time.

At this time, the two of them were in the virtual conference room, drinking tea and talking.

"Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for the past few months, and you have become increasingly unpredictable."

As soon as Hu Kun saw Zhang Shusheng, he felt very strange. Although he and Zhang Shusheng had only interacted on the virtual network, he could feel Zhang Shusheng's extraordinaryness from the beginning.[

Especially during this meeting, although Zhang Shusheng was standing there, he seemed to be integrated into the virtual conference room, which was incredible.

It is said that only cultivators with internal civilization can show this kind of transcendent momentum in the virtual world.

Zhang Shusheng laughed and said: "Mr. President, you are so polite. I haven't seen you for a few months, but you are also very lucky. The Lanke people are suppressed at the front line and you even grabbed an energy mineral star."

"Haha, this is all thanks to your country. The Tianlong battleship has performed extremely well and is really the trump card of our army on the front line. Even the elite battleships in the hands of the Lancians cannot compete."

Hu Kun is telling the truth.

Zhang Shusheng: "The elite battleships of the Lancs were purchased directly from the Silver Moon Empire. Their performance is only slightly better than that of the G-type battleships. Of course, it cannot be compared with the Tianlong-class battleships. However, the F-class battleships in their hands can be compared with those of the Tianlong-class battleships.

The Tianlong level can compete, but the number is too small."

The two chatted for a few more words, and then Hu Kun got straight to the point and explained clearly the purpose of his visit.

The Alliance fleet was attacked by an enemy fleet twice as powerful as its own, but with the help of its allies, it turned defeat into victory. This is the most hype-worthy point.

With President Hu Kun's keen political sense, he doesn't even need to think too much. As long as he can negotiate with the Chinese this time, his presidential term will be easily extended, and the next ten years will be another one belonging to him, Hu Kun.

Ten glorious years.

"Since Mr. President wants to talk, it's a good thing."

Zhang Shusheng naturally agreed. The spoils this time were so large that it was a headache. There were two thousand battleships and two to three hundred comprehensive supply ships. Although about five hundred ships were destroyed, there were still about 1,700 battleships left.

Among them, there are approximately 1,400 battleships.

These 1,400 battleships are equivalent in size to the overall strength of the empire.

Although the "performance" is definitely not as good, otherwise it would not be beaten by the enemy fleet, but the number is definitely crazy and exciting.

Now comes the problem.

It's not that Zhang Shusheng doesn't want battleships, but if 1,700 battleships are obtained at once, including 1,400 battleships, even if the military academy has student soldiers on duty, it will not be enough, and even the reserve of high-performance robot battleship soldiers will not be enough.

Although the empire has mastered very advanced robot manufacturing technology and can activate human-like intelligence, it is impossible for a battleship to be commanded entirely by robots. Zhang Shusheng does not allow this situation.

Moreover, what is even more serious is that a considerable number of battleships are damaged or very old. Even the Longshan Empire cannot achieve a high frequency of battleship replacement.

According to Zhang Shusheng's thinking, the empire does need a large number of battleships, even if they are driven by cadet soldiers, it would be good to at least be prepared for trouble.

However, what the empire needs is not those junk goods. Even goods that need to be returned to the factory for overhaul.

He roughly estimated that if the cost and various factors were taken into consideration, of the 1,400 battleships, about 400 old and damaged battleships would be kicked out. The remaining 1,000 were still a huge number, but they were the ones the empire could

Eaten.

He even briefly imagined that these 1,000 battleships would be enough to form the Empire's Second Fleet, but due to the Empire's tight energy supply, the rate of mining could not keep up with the rate of consumption.

After all, the Empire only has a few planets that produce energy mines. Not to mention compared to monsters like Longshan Nok who often have hundreds or even hundreds of resource planets, but compared to Ranke and the Orion Alliance, which have twenty or thirty energy resources.

No country in the mineral star can compare.

Various data have proven that the starry skies to be developed in the Lost Star Realm do have a large number of resource planets, including many energy ore stars, but this requires a process of exploration and mining.

The Second Fleet will serve as the empire's strategic reserve force, responsible for strategic security, troop training and other functions.

Of course, if the empire needs it, it will also plan to select newer battleships from these 1,000 battleships and return them to the factory for modification to improve their performance to at least the level of an elite battleship.

The empire will not dislike having too many battleships, Zhang Shusheng is very sure of this, but it is better to use the junk to make more money and resources, rather than take it home and recycle it all together.

"Your country's enemy fleet this time is really shocking. Having allies like you is truly a blessing to the alliance."

The two chatted for a few minutes, but Hu Kun kept telling the truth. The Orion Alliance has a powerful ally like the Chinese. Although it is more symbolic, it is also something that makes the people excited.

Zhang Shusheng: "As long as there are no differences in interests, we can still give priority to siding with your country."

Hu Kun nodded. Then he asked the question: "Your Majesty, there is still one year left in my presidential term. There are many variables in the next 10 years. Alas, when a person reaches middle age, his heart is not old, and he is always reluctant to give up his position of power.

I’m afraid I’ll have to ask your Majesty for more help this time.”

Zhang Shusheng laughed and said: "This is just being foreign. We don't talk about national interests. At least my relationship with you is excellent. If you have any requirements, you can tell us and we can slowly negotiate the terms."

Afterwards, Hu Kun transitioned the topic to what kind of conditions were needed to get a decent trophy worth the hype.

Of course he hopes to get as much loot as possible, but this is unrealistic. First of all, whether the alliance can afford the price the Chinese want, and secondly, the Chinese may not be willing to sell it yet.

Zhang Shusheng was deliberately hesitant: "I have some preliminary ideas in this regard, but the amount involved is relatively huge, and I'm afraid that Mr. President will be in trouble."

Unexpectedly, Hu Kun smiled secretly: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. As long as the name is justified, I can find a way to get the Speaker and the Commander-in-Chief of the Military to stand by me. As for the opposition parties, let them go."

I hope it will be fine in ten years.”

Hu Kun is indeed very skillful in politics, otherwise he would not be able to manage a major alliance in an orderly manner, and he could also suppress the Lancs in the war. These are all his contributions.

The Speaker has the same fate as him and will also face a general election next year. As for the Commander-in-Chief of the Military Department, his biggest competitor, the Deputy Commander, is a representative of the opposition.

Hu Kun believed that as long as he could get enough benefits, he would definitely be able to convince the two people and find a good enough excuse to satisfy the appetite of the Chinese people.

Since Hu Kun had a way to solve the problem, Zhang Shusheng would not go around any detours.

He made a direct offer: "We have made preliminary calculations and found that there are about 400 battleships suitable for transfer to you as the nominal spoils of this war. Although these battleships may have some damage due to the war, I guarantee that they will

At least it was once a Longshan or Ranke G-type battleship.

They can become a pile of glorious trophies and appear in front of the people of your country.

In terms of price, the price of these 400 battleships is 20 billion cosmic coins. As a bonus, an additional 1 million Longshan prisoners will be transferred to your country.

I must emphasize that these battleships will not be sold separately, nor will the captives be sold separately. Your Excellency, President, you can think about it carefully." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian, monthly vote,
