Charlotte left for the second time and returned to the Warhammer Star United States, bringing back Zhao Chen's message.
The game of Warhammer Star Wars is about to enter its second stage.
At the same time, Zhao Chen also received a very important news.
Zhao Chen looked at Lilith.
Lilith opened an intelligence file: "This is a T3 Silver Rat-class light interstellar stealth reconnaissance ship we sent out. The person responsible for investigating is Qin Xiaotian's relationship with the Holy Radiance Empire.
During a recent close investigation, they indeed found some clues.
According to the clues obtained so far, a new starship manufacturing group has been established in the Xueyan star field, called Guangyan Group.
The main industry he is responsible for is starship manufacturing and production, and he has immediately assumed the vast majority of the current military purchase orders for the Imperial Army.
And he is also willing to accept starship orders from some interstellar forces that have a good relationship with Qin Xiaotian!
According to research, the supply of starships has expanded several times compared to before the civil war!"
Zhao Chen frowned slightly: "At this time, Qin Xiaotian has the ability to build a starship factory and can continuously provide starships.
Where did he get the raw materials?
In the current territory of the Starry Star Empire alone, the resource production capacity in the territory he controls can only meet the current needs of the interstellar fleets under his command. But to satisfy most of the Starry Star Empire, it will need to be expanded several times! It is simply impossible!
There is only one possibility behind this, and that is that the Holy Radiance Empire has established contact with them in private and provided an unknown amount of help!"
Lilith nodded: "Yes, this is also the direction of our investigation."
"Have you investigated clearly whether a large number of interstellar battleships were transported from the Holy Radiant Empire?
If the interstellar warships are provided directly, the transportation of thousands of interstellar warships cannot be completely silent even in Qin Xiaotian's Xueyan Starfield." Zhao Chen said with narrowed eyes.
"It's not a finished star battleship. So far we haven't found any finished star battleships from the Holy Radiance Empire flowing into the Star Glory Empire," Lilith said.
Not a finished product.
Zhao Chen immediately said: "That should be semi-finished products, or related parts!"
Lilith nodded and pointed to a piece of information in the reported intelligence file: "According to the intelligence we investigated.
There is no clue of direct contact between Xueyan Star Territory and the Holy Glory Empire.
However, our people thought that since it was not a direct exchange, it might be an indirect exchange, so we investigated the destinations of all the interstellar trade fleets entering and leaving the Snow Swallow Star Territory.
Sure enough, the investigation turned up some eyebrows.
In the last quarter, the interstellar trade between a neutral interstellar force and the Star Empire has increased dozens of times!
And the busiest trade area in the Xingyao Empire is the Snow Swallow Star Territory, and 80% of the starships traveling between them enter the Snow Swallow Star Territory!"
"Where?" Zhao Chen asked.
Lilith said a name: "Star Alliance!"
"Star Alliance?" Zhao Chen remembered that he seemed to have heard of this name when he was at the North Star Starship Military Academy.
It is the name of an interstellar force.
When the Galactic Alliance was established, in addition to the three empires, there were actually many small neutral forces.
One of the more famous ones is the Alliance of Stars.
Lilith also called up data related to the Star Alliance at this time.
"The Star Alliance has been established for a long time, and when the Galaxy Alliance was first established, the Star Alliance was one of the members.
The nature of the Alliance of Stars is rather special. They focus on interstellar trade. This is also because their interstellar location belongs to the area where three empires meet, and is very suitable for interstellar trade.
Coupled with the lack of native resources in their own interstellar territories, the three empires did not pay much attention to their existence. On the contrary, some black market transactions required the existence of the Alliance of Stars.
The three empires ignored its existence."ωωw..net
Zhao Chen nodded, he had also been exposed to these things.
For example, the Eden Grain Trading Group he has established currently mainly takes this route. If the Eden Grain Trading Group is solely relied on to establish its own trade route, it will probably take several years.
Therefore, Ana, who is in charge of the Eden Grain Trading Group, referred to the suggestions of Li Yaqi and Red Rose and directly looked for some partners in the Star Alliance.
Use the ready-made resources of those partners to sell food.
Of course, this also implies that those partners may raise prices a lot when selling at the terminal.
However, this is currently the most suitable sales method for Xiaolong Legion, and it also saves the most time and cost.
"So far, the number of interstellar forces that have joined the Alliance of Stars is as many as one hundred and nine according to the latest statistics.
Some of these interstellar forces are so small that they don't even have their own territory or a planet.
Some interstellar forces are very large and may have several galaxies as their base camp.
But for the stars, the size of the interstellar territory is not very important, the most important thing is the resources they have at their disposal.
There is a saying within the Star Alliance that there is nothing they dare not buy or sell!" Lilith said.
Chu Xuan on the side exclaimed: "This reminds me of something. It seems like a few years ago, my grandfather also had a partner in the Star Alliance.
At that time, he actually wanted to ask us to buy a T4 Borei-class heavy interstellar battleship!"
"Did you sell it?" Zhao Chen asked.
Chu Xuan rolled her eyes: "This is top-notch technology, and of course it cannot be sold.
If we hadn't had a good relationship with the royal family at that time, and the royal family would supply us with military supplies every year, it would have been impossible for us to sell the T4 Borei-class heavy interstellar battleship to the royal family.
Who would have thought that now we are actually at odds with the royal family."
When she thought of this, Chu Xuan regretted that she had not asked her grandfather to install some backdoor programs on the T4 Borei-class heavy interstellar battleships sold to the royal family.
It's like Zhao Chen tricked Qin Ming this time.
However, no one would have thought that things would develop to this point. After all, the Chu family has never had any thoughts of rebellion and is loyal to the Xingyao Empire.
Otherwise, when the threat of the mechanical tribe was still there, the Chu family would not have been able to station at the border without complaint.
"So far, all the clues point to the Star Alliance, but our people said that with their abilities, it will take more time to investigate clearly in the Star Alliance.
The best way is for our Xiaolong Legion to send high-level officials to directly contact the Galaxy Alliance in the form of business and trade." Lilith looked at Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen nodded, this is indeed perhaps the best way to obtain information.
"The Alliance of Stars... we don't seem to have any personal connections in it." Zhao Chen scratched his head.
"Don't you have low eyelids?" Chu Xuan looked at Zhao Chen.
"Yes? Why didn't I know?" Zhao Chen was stunned.
"You don't know the identity of your interstellar battleship captain, Xue Xiaoxiao?" Chu Xuan said.
"Xue Xiaoxiao?" Zhao Chen knew that this girl might have something to do with her background, but he never expected that she was actually related to the Alliance of Stars!
