Chapter 641 The Destruction Weapon being Assembled
Feifei carefully rubbed Yu Lian's face three times to make sure that this guy was not really schizophrenic. Then she diverted her attention and followed his line of sight to look at the "future" in the distance.
At first glance, this is indeed just an ordinary artificial space building, which can be seen almost everywhere in the empire. You must know that the empire's shipbuilding technology and space city are almost definitely the first in the universe, and they are also the first in the universe.
A space infrastructure maniac. Newly developed galaxies and colonies on planets have not yet been approved, and various functional buildings in space have been built overtime. In addition, we also need to know that the vast majority of spacecraft are actually
They are all built in the universe. As for the Dreadnought, Titan or those larger super transport ships, their construction scale is no different than assembling a habitable space city.
All in all, the empire's territory is vast, and all the galaxies within its territory are under construction all the time. If you don't make the effort to pass through the galaxies where the large shipyards are located, you may feel that you have wandered into a city that is undergoing massive construction in preparation for the Olympic Games...
Of course, the empire's shipyard is better than the Olympic Games. At least the ships can be used once they are built. There will be no such thing as a plague after building a house.
The Extreme Galaxy is the frontier galaxy of the empire. Relatively speaking, there are not many space engineering projects, but we still encountered them a few times along the way. If not for Yu Lian’s reminder, Feifei would have ignored them.
The "space building" should be more than half completed, and the main structure is in the shape of a long strip. A rough estimate is that the length should be more than 50,000 meters.
Most of the new dreadnoughts and Titan ships are of this size, not to mention some very large cargo ships. Of course, if it is a semi-fixed space facility operating within the star system, this can only be regarded as a medium-sized functional building.
"The future?" Fifiqi asked.
"That's not a boat." Yu Lian laughed.
Feifei didn't think it was a ship. First of all, the appearance design style of the imperial warships is mainly streamlined spindle and wing shapes. Only the Minlan and Turanq people who consider themselves pacifists like to design warships.
It has become that cylindrical shape. Moreover, if it is the central axis of a space battleship, the creation seems too slender. If you look closely, it looks more like a large flashlight, or the shaft of an atomic light spear.
.
Thinking of this, Feifei's heart moved and she couldn't help but look at Yu Lian: "Is that thing a super cannon?"
"I do feel this way," Yu Lian said.
Feifei also nodded, but still didn't know why this was the "future". You know, this kind of fortress cannon that is comparable in size to a giant battleship has already appeared, but the price/performance ratio has not been high, and it can only be used for
Galaxy defense.
"Let's take another look." Yu Liandao said, "I guess this should be the last program of this military exercise for the empire."
"Oh," Feifei said in a long voice: "The messy things you and Yani did mysteriously in the Imperial Capital before were related to this thing, right?"
Yu Lian looked at the sun in the distance and said seriously: "After all, I am a military attache stationed abroad, and it is very reasonable to exchange information with other countries. As for more, I don't know anything."
Feifei pondered for a moment, then stretched out her hand to hold Yu Lian's cheek again, and rubbed it hard: "It's very good, Yu'er, you can speak so high-sounding in front of me, it means that you have grown into a very good (wu)
You are a perverted (hi) adult! Let me see if you can become the president before you are forty years old!"
According to the established driving procedures, the Fujie cruised past the construction site of this "Fortress Cannon". According to traffic dispatch, it lined up to cut into the outer space orbit of Luyuan Planet and began to land.
This is a standard Earth-like planet, with a surface ocean area of 73% and an oxygen content of 22%. It is even more suitable for ordinary human habitation than the Earth. As the capital of the Extreme Star Region
, as well as the standard natural Earth-like planet closest to the border of the galactic center within the empire, with a permanent population of about 1.5 billion, which can be regarded as a highly developed settlement.
Coming here from the remote Sarna, it really feels like returning to the city from the countryside.
Luyuan Planet is a very famous agricultural and animal husbandry base of the empire. In addition to the giant farmlands and pastures planted by mechanization, the natural ecology of the planet is also maintained as much as possible. Of course, there are forbidden forest hunting grounds directly belonging to the royal family on the planet, but there are also large expanses of
A hunting area open to the public. Yu Lian thinks this is quite interesting.
Yu Lian had heard that the Silver Ring Golden Pheasant native to this place is a delicacy that is unparalleled in the world. Whether it is used to make soup, barbecue or stir-fry into spicy chicken, it is naturally extremely delicious.
If he was traveling, he would be happy to take Feifei into the mountains to hunt, eat chicken, and rest for a year and a half. However, he had a mission after all at this time, so after getting off the ship, he rushed directly to the community delegation's hotel.
Hotel, go meet with the leader of the group, General Maxell.
The old president of the Central National Defense University will be eighty after the new year. Yu Lian’s four years of college were all completed while the old general was the president. However, I have no good impression or respect for him.
, of course, I can’t say I have any bad feelings, I just feel that this old man is a mascot put on the stage to make numbers.
Generally speaking, this is a typical career bureaucrat. Once he reaches a certain age, he will automatically enter the mode of eating and waiting to die. His original life trajectory should be to retire after the end of his term as principal and take a high salary.
With the pension, I can work as a consultant for a large security company and spend my old age leisurely and comfortably.
However, such an old man got another promotion while waiting to retire. This may be something he never dreamed of.
Ever since, when reporting, this old man with wrinkles and age spots on his face opened his sleepy eyes and said in a helpless tone: "Student Yu Liang and classmate Li, you think, I am such a slow and dim person.
You old fool, why did you become the director of the Strategic Research Office of the Military Command Headquarters? And how did you become a general?"
Maybe it's because of your popularity? Although everyone doesn't respect you, they don't hate you either. In officialdom, this can certainly be regarded as good popularity.
Although Yu Lian thought so, he could only say: "Probably the Chairman is reluctant to part with your experience and talent! Marshal Paris is already ninety this year. Marshal Este from the Empire is also
He is several years older than you."
"They are old men, but I am old and dim-eyed. This is the gap at the soul level!" The former principal sneered: "According to your statement, Mr. Lan is a step ahead of me. How can I compare with him? Student Yu Lian
, you have been my student for four years, and I still don’t know who you are? Stop doing this."
Well, based on these words, this old man is definitely not a simple fool. Even if he is just a bureaucrat waiting to die, who can be a fool if he can get to this point?
"Tell me honestly, does the death of classmate Yu Lian, Count Seriola, have anything to do with you? Also, does the death of Major Poppas have something to do with it?"
Feifei looked around the room, but the principal said: "Don't worry, classmate Li. There is no eavesdropping equipment in this room. There are still a few security experts in our group who are experts in anti-eavesdropping!"
The people in the committee are even more worried, right? Apart from colluding with Hachiman’s colleagues to do the dirty work, there is no time when their professional skills are not showing off.
"Besides, today's empire is not so far-reaching as spying on diplomats."
Yu Lian was a little confused now. He really couldn't figure out whether the old principal was really confused or pretending to be confused, or whether it was intermittent. Of course, if he thought about it carefully, if he didn't know about Emperor Eliasel and Salvin
As for the Earl's case, he might also believe that the empire's big bosses are all gentlemen.
"This kind of thing has actually spread all over the world!"
"How could such a big thing be concealed?" Maxell said: "Every country has its own intelligence channels, and we can always get some clues. Of course, before the empire speaks, everyone will try not to spread the word.
This is just to sell the empire to save face, and it can be regarded as a tacit understanding between the intelligence agencies of various countries."
Yu Lian nodded, and then said loudly with a frank expression: "But the student really knows nothing!"
"..." The old principal narrowed his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, as if he was smiling, but with a sharp look.
Yu Lian had to express a little surprise. He really never expected that the old principal, who only had a sleepy expression every time he appeared in college for four years, would have such a beautiful face.
"However, Major Poppas was killed when he encountered a virtual monster while accompanying General Griffith of the Iron Army Complex to inspect the ruins. This was also a death in the line of duty, and he also made considerable contributions to our country's diplomatic career.
.The student thought that he should be the one applying for the medal.”
Major Poppas is a member of the observation group and is currently serving on the diplomatic front. His subsequent honors should naturally be applied for by the group leader, General Maxell.
"He is indeed a very diligent and down-to-earth young man. What a pity. Don't worry, Major Poppas will get the compensation and honor he deserves." He looked Yu Lian up and down again, sighed silently, and then revealed his face.
He gave a tacit smile: "Well, Colonel Yu Lian, Major Li, please take a break."
He seemed to understand everything, but also seemed to understand nothing and didn't want to understand at all. At this moment, Yu Lian felt the last pride of an old bureaucrat, and he also showed a smile of the same wavelength and stood at attention.
Salute and leave.
After leaving, Feifei said to Yu Lian: "Actually, the principal is not a bad person. The incident that Yu'er caused in the school was only because of the principal's final objection that you were not expelled."
"I understand. His rating was also the decisive factor for my final graduation thesis to be A+." Yu Lian smiled and said, "He is a kind-hearted person who goes with the flow but has his own bottom line. As long as most people can
To have reached this point is already remarkable. I am actually very grateful. I even visited him last time I returned to China."
That happened during the free period after Yu Lian returned to Earth from Lumina. Liuli made him a list and schedule of people he must visit, including Admiral Maxell.
At that time, he had just resigned from the position of president of the National Defense University, but had not yet retired. When he saw Yu Lian coming to visit him, he was very enthusiastic and invited him to have dinner, but returned the gifts he brought.
"You have already made great achievements as soon as you left school. To me, this is the best gift."
This may sound a bit high-sounding, but because the old man's attitude was very sincere, Yu Lian didn't feel embarrassed at all, and instead respected him a little more.
"The principal is also trying his best to protect ordinary students. In fact, he cannot be blamed for the chaos in the college in those years." Yu Lian added.
Feifei agreed, but she frowned slightly and lowered her voice: "However, he has recently become very close to Mr. Mao Yuanzuo, a senator from the Co-Prosperity Party. It is said that the Co-Prosperity Party hopes that the principal can enter politics after he retires.
.The Co-Prosperity Party will support him to become a senator and fully promote his entry into the National Defense Committee."
It took Yu Lian nearly two seconds to connect this name with historical knowledge: "Mao Yuanzuo? Oh, the shadow boss of the Co-Prosperity Party?"
Feifei nodded and said with a smile: "Not a shadow boss, but a real boss!"
This Mao Yuanzuo is not an ordinary senator, but a political bigwig who has served in the parliament for more than half a century. During the era of Marshal Li, he served as the deputy minister of the first executive government of the Community. Since then,
Over the long years, although he has never been president, he has served as minister of interior, minister of foreign affairs and prime minister. His political status and influence are evident.
This person is also an old monster in his nineties, and he resigned as the president of the Co-Prosperity Party, the second largest political party in the Blue Star Community, the year before last. Of course, everyone thinks that the current president is the mascot introduced by the old guy.
.
Speaking of which, Yu Lian's outrageous maneuvers before graduation caused a series of chain reactions in the political, military and business circles of the community. Chairman Nishita's political allies once launched an attack and killed a large number of opponents. Among them, the military
The most famous person in the political world was Admiral Schwartz, who triggered the "Navy Day Incident". The most famous person in the political world was Apu, a star member of the Communist Party of China at that time, who was said to be trained as the future party leader and president.
Wood.
But even so, it seems that this old monster who is deeply entrenched in the political arena is not involved at all.
"Let me just say, our Chairman Nishita is not a gold coin, so how can everyone like him? He is working hard to build a strong army, so he cannot expect his opponent to make no moves at all." Yu Lian said with a smile:
"However, the Co-Prosperity Party wants to push out our old principal at this time. Isn't it a bit inhumane?"
"So what if you don't admit it." Feifei spread her hands and said, "Principal Maxer has been the president of the National Defense University for ten years, and a large number of moon people are his students. Anyone with such network resources, that is
A perfect military and political expert."
"What's more important is that the old principal is old and has no foundation in politics, so he is a more perfect partner. Right?" Yu Liandao.
Feifei smiled and nodded: "This trip as the leader of the military observation group has diplomatic functions. As long as he can successfully complete this work, it will be natural for him to enter the political arena."
"So, the principal hopes that this exercise can go on smoothly even more than the empire, right?"
Feifei nodded again: "So, the death of Major Poppas should be the biggest headache for Mr. Principal. Of course, the premise is that he is willing to accept the appointment of the Co-Prosperity Party."
Yu Lian curled his lips and looked back at Admiral Maxell's suite at the end of the corridor. He wanted to laugh a little, but out of basic courtesy and emotional intelligence, he held it back.
As an old leftist, no matter whether he is a true leftist, a critical leftist or a leftist, who can value parliamentary struggle?
If we have this time, we might as well see how the battle will unfold after the exercise. This is a real fleet battle, and any man with normal aesthetics will definitely not be able to bear it.
As for the finale after the exercise... Yu Lian's blood starts to boil just when he thinks about that scene.
