King Suliuka is indeed a man of his word. Within two hours after he agreed, a dreadnought ship came rushing over. This was a long tapered warship with a slender body and smooth outline, or
The shape is more like the blade of a dagger, and the whole body is a very majestic red color.
This easily reminded Yu Lian of his scarlet... ah no, the Predator Dreadnought that had been renamed and taken to the Earth as a test ship.
However, we all know that an overly grand color such as red actually tests the craftsmanship and painting quality, whether it is a car or a spacecraft. What must be admitted is that in terms of engineering aesthetics, regardless of
Whether it is taste or technology, the empire has always stood at the top of the universe, at least in this generation of civilization.
If this Imperial Dreadnought, which is like an open fire, is a speeding red Ferrari, then the previous Scarlet Throne of the Predator can at best be regarded as a little Alto traveling through mountains and rivers.
Yu Lian felt that such a boat was destined to him, but upon closer inspection, he felt that he had seen this boat somewhere before.
At this time, this beautiful red dreadnought had already sent a friendly signal and was hovering at a safe distance from Fleet 13. She faced everyone with her unprotected side ribs, and then sent a communication
ask.
An officer who looked to be about forty-five or six years old, tall and burly, with gray hair, brown eyes, and brown skin, as serious and tough as granite appeared on the screen, and raised his hand to salute Yu Lian: "Your Majesty."
It is the captain of the dreadnought USS Barbarossa, Colonel Campol. Entrusted by His Highness King Suliuka, he invited General Yu Lian and his team to board the ship."
Oh, Gutta Campbell is another future celebrity. During the Queen's era, he served as the First Fleet of the Guards and the Sword-bearing Minister of the Grand Marshal's Office. In his later years, he used his remaining energy and continued to serve as the training director of the Imperial Army. Combat style
As a person, just like his appearance and temperament, he is an immovable, resolute and genuine type.
In fact, even in an empire with abundant military virtues, it is logically difficult for an officer like him who was born as a civilian to obtain a general star before retirement, let alone serve as the captain of a dreadnought. Only after
Only under Miss Brunhilt can he have the opportunity to show off his talents.
He is indeed an excellent captain. He started as the captain of a destroyer and served as the commander of a larger fleet each time he was promoted. The last captain before becoming fleet admiral was Brunhildt's
The Angel of Dawn is here.
However, in this timeline, Yu Lian himself is also a big shot. He has seen too many celebrities in the previous timeline and has naturally become immune, so he just said "Oh" in his heart, and there was no other fluctuation.
.
Compared with the captain, what Yu Lian cares about more is the red dreadnought Barbarossa. It is said to be a dreadnought, but this new type of corona 2 has better speed and protection in terms of speed and protection.
It has been strengthened to a considerable extent, and it can be understood as a larger battle cruiser with super protection. It indeed meets Yu Lian's requirements for the "survivability" and "single ship combat capability" of the battleship.
Well, although Yu Lian was a little disappointed that the Dawn Angel was not actually sent - although he also knew that this was impossible - it was after all a latest type of dreadnought ship, even a Titan. The strongest battleship under the Brynhilt, Brunhilt is also very expensive.
Yu Lian responded with a salute: "Thank you for your hard work, I will board the ship immediately."
After closing the communication, he said to Eleanor: "I will take Feifei and Ina to board the ship. Si Simon and Meng Jiao will be in charge of the Aurora. You can fully cooperate with the empire's actions, if necessary You can also obey the unified command of King Suliuka."
The senior sister nodded: "I understand. That young Emperor, Your Highness, does not seem to be the type who would take friendly troops to death."
If the person commanding over there is King Wilent or even King Soleyn, it would be a different matter. Yu Lian thought.
"Don't worry, I'm not a mediocre person who only knows how to obey orders. Our combat power has been temporarily strengthened. We don't have the strength to attack difficulties, but we still have the ability to preserve our own strength." Eleanor comforted her again.
The implication is that if there are hidden dangers in the empire's orders, she will handle them with consideration.
The current Thirteenth Fleet has indeed been temporarily strengthened. In addition to the original battleships, four light cruisers and six destroyers have been transferred from the supply escort fleet. Naturally, all the friends from the 830 community have arrived. , it can be regarded as a strong army and a strong horse.
If placed in a fleet decisive battle to attack the enemy head-on, it would not be able to handle it, but as a mobile force, it should still be able to do a lot of things.
Then, Yu Lian took Feifei and Ina, as well as Krell and Inspector Shixin from the alliance, boarded the Barbarossa, and was greeted by a group of people headed by Giya Feier and Nelhana. A warm welcome from all the knights of the astral realm.
...More than half a year ago, Yu Lian and Feifei played a great escape on the Dawn Angel, and Giafel and Nelhana were even the pursuers. However, now both parties have tacitly ignored this matter. Nerhana even asked a few more questions, half jokingly and half seriously, about jointly opening a hotpot restaurant in Tianyu.
Clay, who has a social angst, jumped out immediately and said that if the hot pot restaurant is to be opened, it should be opened as big as possible. He can cooperate with Wan Le Palace and first directly invest in more than ten chain stores in Tianyu.
As for the question of whether it will lose money, everyone expressed confidence. As long as the concept of "hot pot is the taste of warriors" is widely publicized, there is absolutely no possibility that it will not be able to continue in an empire full of martial virtue.
"Go directly to my uncle. He has the secret when it comes to stir-frying. Just go to him for training with the chefs of each store." Yu Lian said: "Zi Xinhui also cooperates in this way. ."
"Then I'll choose the location, prepare personnel and shopping channels." Nerhana said.
"Well, Wanle Palace can pay for it," Claire said with a smile.
"It's best to use some promotion. For example, if you eat an A-level buffet at Wanle Palace, you can get coupons for hot pot restaurants." Yu Lian added.
Krell gave a thumbs up: "Brother Yu Lian is indeed capable of everything!"
So, through these three minutes of opening greetings, the opening of Tianyu’s first chain hot pot restaurant was confirmed. In short, the scene was filled with friendly and harmonious comradeship. Anyone here would feel that human beings
The relationship between the younger generations of the three major countries is really friendly, and long-lasting peace in the future of the galaxy is about to come.
On the other hand, Yeager Soback, who was out of tune with the entire scene, always wanted to leave. As a wild animal, with his sixth sense, he had already sensed the undercurrent beneath this sanctimony.
As the commander of this special operation, Yu Lian seemed to have seen the embarrassment of his "old enemy" and said: "Since ancient times, there has been no precedent for the commander and deputy to be on the same battleship. After the operation started,
Brigadier General Yeager Soback, just stay on standby in your own blizzard."
Since it was a special military operation, of course it was not just a solitary dreadnought that was dispatched. In addition to the Barbarossa, there were also two Phoenix-class assault armored aircraft carriers, carrying a total of 240 aircraft.
Purple Lightning Dragon multi-purpose fighter aircraft and two brigades of armored grenadiers provided support.
In addition, there is a Clear Sky-class heavy cruiser and four Aegis-class ships serving as follow-up command and escort personnel.
You finally became a human being for once! Soback looked at Yu Lian gratefully. But then he thought, once the war starts and encounters danger, being on a dreadnought is safer than being on a cruiser!
He really wanted to stay behind Barbarossa's thick red armor plate, but he was a little worried about his companions boarding the Blizzard, so he suddenly became a little confused.
Sure enough, you are not the son of a man! In this kind of high-powered extraordinary battle, what is the use of a mere three-ring that I have ripened? You can just do it yourself, but why did you recruit me?
"As you all know, I will be solely responsible for this operation. Inspector Stone Heart will serve as a special advisor. If I make a mistake, the command line will automatically be handed over to Count Lamut, and then to Brigadier General Soback. Regarding this
Come on, is everyone okay?" Yu Lian glanced around.
Giafel added: "Each of the two aircraft carriers will have a four-person Astral Knight team on standby, headed by Baron Mela and Sir Lemen respectively. The same is true on the Blizzard, which will be commanded part-time by Commodore Thorback.
Already."
Yu Lian held back a smile and glanced at the other person, only to find that the guy was nodding his head in agreement with a stern face, as if every fold on his face was already in the shape of an astral knight.
Baron Mela is Miss Nelhana. As for Sir Lemen, he is a slightly older Letalin. Yu Lian has never heard of this name before, but it seems that he must be an experienced person.
A rich, calm and steady old knight.
...Tsk, they are all astral knights and have three rings. Just because they are not human beings, they are still just knights at this age!
However, judging by his age and aura, he should be a very reliable veteran warrior. If he had been a few years younger, he might have been able to survive in Brunhild's era, which is a pity.
"I am also on standby on the Barbarossa to fully cooperate with your work." Giafel said: "This ship has many experimental psychic expansion equipment. I have participated in no less than ten experiments. Probably all
There is no one in the Imperial Army who is more familiar with the equipment here than me."
At this time, Yu Lian finally remembered. After King Su's chief bestie, Count Giafel, transferred from a thug position to a command position in the Astral Knights, the Barbarossa has been her flagship.
For this reason, she even declined the new Titan offered to her by the empire on the metaphysical grounds of "human and ship becoming one".
Therefore, in the future of another timeline, it is obviously just a Dreadnought, but because it is the ship of the Imperial Marshal, Duke Giaphire Lamut of the "Scarlet Comet", it is more famous than most Titan ships.
This red-haired female knight is indeed a noble, upright and fearless knight. Her lord has had the dark and cruel side that is inevitable as a political leader, but she has never done anything contrary to chivalry.
Behavior.
Yu Lian felt that as an ally, she was even more reliable than most of her colleagues in the community.
"That's troublesome." Yu Lian expressed his gratitude to Giafel and said to everyone: "Then, I hope you will all fulfill your duties. We cannot avoid casualties, but as long as we do this, the military movement will always be with us.
My body."
In the common calendar year 832, at 21:35 on August 17, Galactic Standard Time, the Imperial small fleet, which had completed its comprehensive preparations, set off again towards the passage to the DL36 galaxy with the Barbarossa as its core.
At this time, this unstable gravity well channel is in a state of expansion, but it can also accommodate the passage of this fleet.
If nothing goes wrong, they will arrive at the Dl36 galaxy at the pass within twenty minutes, that is, before 22 o'clock. There is another pass in the Devil's Labyrinth Starfield. Although there is no one hidden there that can withstand tens of millions of people,
The ancient Enlightenment Fortress was besieged by a large army, but perhaps all the remaining mobile forces of the Marauders were hidden.
In the battle two days ago, the main fleet commanded by King Suliuka himself was unable to make any progress despite a fierce battle, and had to come back defeated.
And if it were this "small" fleet, it might be eaten by the main force of the predators.
When he thought of this, Commodore Soback, who was in the blizzard, looked at the Barbarossa directly in front of him and wanted to cry. He couldn't help but said to his old partner Captain Hongshan: "Sorry, I'm in trouble.
If it weren't for me, His Highness would not have chosen our ship for such a foolish mission."
The old captain was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "I don't dare to speculate on the considerations of the elected emperors, but I have never heard that anyone who can ascend to that position would be foolhardy. In fact, I don't know anything about occultism.
I understand very well, but once you take action, you must have a target in mind. In the past, some famous knights and even knight captains acted more messily than this."
He glanced at Soback: "Anyway, the real leaders are your friend who cannot even be named, and Countess Lamut. You are just a candidate to make up the numbers. And you are still on the Blizzard, so it is difficult to escape.
Fearless and convenient, right?”
Yes. Although the Dreadnought is safe, the heavy cruiser is light and easy to turn around! Even if the gravity well is in a state of collapse, you can still escape through a gap. Soback suddenly understood something, and felt that he seemed to have mastered the excellent skill of reverse thinking.
Ability.
"I'm so lucky. It's the first time I cooperate with a wise elder like you." Soback said with emotion: "I don't know how to thank you."
Captain Hongshan shook his head and said: "You can be regarded as the last star knight I cooperated with before I retired. I really hope that you can have a good result, and it can be regarded as a good start and end for my military career."
Soback was slightly startled, inexplicably feeling that these words were very unlucky: "Retire, retire? You are still very young and strong!"
"I am a Kiyyan, and my natural lifespan is only two-thirds of that of you humans. I am fifty years old this year, and it is time for me to retire. You can start looking for the next captain now. I guess
Well, after this battle is over, you should serve as the commander of an actual combat fleet. Your fate with the Snowstorm is not over yet."
The old captain laughed: "As for me, I can't wait to return to my hometown's pasture! It's a large pasture of tens of thousands of acres! You can ride a horse all day without stopping! What a human being
Live a life instead of hiding and seeking in this starry sky with a bunch of smelly red-skinned devils!"
Soback wanted to say something else, but received a communication from the Barbarossa.
"The entire fleet will enter the gravity well within three minutes. Please prepare for the jump... and prepare for the battle!"
He couldn't help but look straight ahead, and found that Barbarossa's bow had reached the direction of the gravity well, and was then pulled into a straight line.
However, before the straight line completely disappeared into the distance, Soback vaguely felt that there seemed to be some gray mist spreading out of thin air from the gaps in the starry sky.
