Him and their stars.

Chapter 1105 Cloud Giant Engine

To be honest, Yu Lian assured the spirit of the universe that he was completely unaware of this sudden outbreak of parade.I don't know the names of the organizers, their number and organizational structure, or even their demands.However, it must be admitted that this labor movement is still very moderate. Although 30 people blocked the main road and the airport entrance and exit of No. 8 Space City, it did not restrict the travel of ordinary citizens, and no zero-dollar purchases occurred. Overall, it was very restrained, and it could even be regarded as civilized.

The parade lasted for nearly a week, and the airport was blocked for a week.Only then did Yu Lian know that the shipbuilders' request was only "an average monthly wage increase of 50 credits".

...Well, well, according to the statistics of 832, the average monthly salary of the alliance is 1100 credit stars.Considering that in many remote star regions and franchise countries, there are still a large number of workers who do not even have basic social security, 50 yuan should still be a lot.

However, in Nefe, where prices are relatively high, this is only enough for a family of three to go downstairs for a meal.

Therefore, the capitalists stated very frankly that they absolutely cannot accept this price.

In the end, it is said that the leading organizers were found out for various problems, such as tax evasion, cheating when they were students, drunk driving, bumping into an old lady crossing the road, and running away with a big girl belly. And so on, or be arrested or be killed by the society.

Thus, this large-scale labor movement came to an end.

But in any case, a delay in the construction period is a delay in the construction period.

Now, the crew members of the community who are going to accept the battleship have gathered at Nantianmen to start initial training.If people came and the boat was still unusable, it would be a considerable expense for tens of thousands of people in the alliance to eat horse chews.

Of course, the alliance side still confidently stated that the reputation of the alliance in doing business is world-renowned after all, and since the construction period has been set, it will definitely not be completed on time.Not to mention that the No. 8 space city where the problem occurred is at least seventy-eight million kilometers away from the berth. Even if the berth is burned, the construction period of the battleship will definitely not be delayed.

So, within a week after the equipment arrived, the workers of Taita Shipyard began to work in three shifts day and night in full swing.

Now, within Yu Lian's line of sight, there are busy workers and machines everywhere. It is just a scene of industrial production in full swing, and the red flags are waving with the sound of gongs and drums.

After the final equipment plan was finalized, Yu Lian was present during the entire construction period. Naturally, he could see from a glance how the most outstanding shipbuilding technicians in the entire alliance and even the universe have sacrificed workers with their exquisite plans and advanced equipment. The liver came to catch up with the construction period.

It must be admitted that regardless of morality, it takes a long time for people on earth to learn the technology and management level of the alliance's manufacturing industry.

"I have found the reason why the psionic energy array table sent before is not counted, and now I have made a new one..." Krell said again.

"Sure enough, someone has embezzled high-purity zero-element materials and replaced them with low-grade ones, right?" Yu Lian laughed.

The other party coughed, and hurriedly said: "Actually, some engineers who were dissatisfied with the results of the parade and strike made a move. We have asked the security department to solve it."

"Tut tsk tsk, really? Brother Krell, do you think I believe it or not?"

"Uh, just believe it for now. Our alliance also has national conditions here. The water here is very deep. Brother Yu Lian, unless it is a formal decision to give up the nationality of the community and join Yani, don't take it seriously." Claire was helpless, and squeezed out another smile:

"In short, the trial run of the new psionic array platform went very smoothly, and it has been successfully connected to the main energy source of the Fuxi. Wait until next week, the main gun and shield will be installed. If everything goes well, even 3 In less than a month, you can go out of the berth for firepower testing." Krell, who was wearing overalls, bared his teeth proudly.

He had indeed spent all this time on the berth and participated in a lot of construction work. He was exactly the same as those hot young engineers, but he really looked like a working class with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"Look, I've said it before. A small labor movement will not delay her going to sea." Krell said seriously.

I do see a perfect street light pendant thriving!Although Yu Lian wanted to say that, but considering that the other party was busy with the affairs here, he just sighed and said casually: "Speaking of which, didn't you tell me last time that your sixth machine repair shop and The director of the Ninth Outfitting Workshop also went to participate in the parade?"

"That's right! They also brought more than 2000 skilled workers." Krell also sighed with pain on his face: "If this incident hadn't happened, they would have been able to become the director of the branch factory sooner or later. It's really great. It's a pity... But there is no way, it is a sensitive period after all. And the military industry is a major national issue, so we must investigate it."

After all, some time ago, the "ghost fire incident" occurred in Steel Flame City, which is less than 30 kilometers away from No. [-] slipway. Although everyone believes that it must be a terrorist activity carried out by snakes, it is understandable that the alliance officials will overreact .

Therefore, the two workshop directors who participated in the parade went in because of some "unnecessary" charges, and the unit that took over was not the ordinary police station, but the National Defense Security Bureau.

"Don't sympathize with them. Strictly speaking, this matter has nothing to do with you." Krell said to Yu Lian.

"...I don't even know who they are."

"But they must know you! The leader of this parade, that Mai Kui..."

"I know, that Waying engineer from the communication quality inspection department of the Poseidon Fleet, right? I heard that the Security Bureau arrested him for drug possession. Hehe, it's not like sending someone to secretly put moon sugar in someone's house , and then send someone to the door to call the thief to catch the thief?"

"Uh, he has type 7 radiation sickness and needs weekly injections of liver washes. That thing does contain prohibited drug ingredients. I used to buy one-time injections according to the doctor's orders, but this time I found two in his backpack. Year. Find a reliable master, enough to make a ton of moon sugar." Krell said solemnly: "Mr. Mai Kui said that he happened to come across a discounted medicine on the Internet, so he placed an order to buy a year's vintage Yes. However, when I searched for the website he mentioned, there was nothing. Since there is no evidence to prove my innocence, it is actually reasonable to say that it is a crime of drug possession.”

Liver washes are expensive if you don't have health insurance.Normal people can't help but place an order when they see that they can buy a whole year at a discount, right?

Yu Lian suddenly understood, showing an astonished expression, couldn't help giving a thumbs up: "Krell, you betrayed them again!"

"I, I'm not betraying... Strikes or something that affects the construction period, how can it be called betrayal? And I have never joined their organization. Anyway, anyway! Our alliance has national conditions, so we can't delay business .Most of the worker leaders in this strike did cause some minor troubles, but ordinary participants are fine, and each of them got 200 shopping coupons." Belmonte turned his head away a little bit, seeing Yu Lian's complexion was already ugly, so he hurriedly said:
"Even if it's Mr. Mai Kui, he won't be detained for too long. The prosecution for drug possession, after all, has insufficient evidence. The Poseidon Fleet has already spoken privately, and they will not pursue it after they are released from prison. They just lose a job. Therefore, he confessed that he had read "Theory". In addition, the workers' uprising in Lonely Night City also inspired him."

"It's a pity that he wasn't encouraged enough." Yu Lian sneered, "If he really learns from the uprising workers in Lonely Night City, he won't be a prisoner, but he will become your honored guest."

It took Krell two seconds to sort out the logic, and he felt that what Yu Lian said was indeed very reasonable.

"Now you admit that this matter has something to do with you, right?"

"It's just a ghost rising." Yu Lian sneered and said, "If you have to get involved, you can also give me the whole drug possession case. I am proud of it."

"Ahahahahaha, if it is really a drug possession case, it would be too childish. In your case, at least it must be a disgusting espionage case that endangers national security...Ahahaha, just kidding."

In short, thanks to the previous "Ghost Fire" in Steel Flame City, and thanks to the 30 workers' strike parade, there are now more than 4 workers in the No. 5800 berth, but the security department is fully armed. Strengthen company.

In such an environment, there should be no potential danger.There shouldn't be any assassins running over to refill himself with bullets tens of thousands of meters away, right?

Probably, no...

"So, when will the cloud giant engine be tested?" Yu Lian decided to focus on the business.

"Well, I don't know if it's my illusion. Brother Yu Lian, I always feel that you are more interested in the cloud giant engine than the observatory and the new Type 12 deflection shield." Krell said with a belt He glanced at Yu Lian with a little scrutiny.

Although our Belmont brother has once again jumped from a model worker to a perfect street lamp pendant, he is a street lamp pendant with engineer qualifications after all, and his sensitivity in this regard is indeed quite high.

Such a thought flashed in Yu Lian's mind, but he said: "Who told Yani to praise this thing so much that it is the so-called second-generation sub-light speed engine? However, as far as I know, once any equipment involves iteration , I always need to pay tuition. I have to be prepared."

Krell felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said, so he took Yu Lian to the vacuum laboratory in the back cabin of the shipyard.

"The first batch of [-] sets of engines are all in place. The last simulation before boarding the ship is going on, do you want to see it?"

This is a closed cabin that can simulate the vacuum environment of the universe (which actually contains a large amount of identifiable or unidentifiable radiation), simulating the flight status of a space vehicle or engine when it is running.

It stands to reason that this kind of work has been done when the cloud giant engine leaves the factory.However, this so-called second-generation sub-light speed engine is installed on a large capital ship for the first time. Based on the quality and shape of the main god-class dreadnought ship that has already been formed, another simulation is performed, which can be regarded as a meticulous craftsman. spirit it.

Then, Yu Lian saw a huge indoor space that could hold the entire urban area through the observation port that had been treated with shading.In the space, a mechanical device about 100 meters high and shaped like a Mayan pyramid was pulled in mid-air by the traction light cable, and a large amount of plasma flame was ejected.

The staff kept adjusting the simulated environment in the room, and the inverted triangle was also rapidly adjusting its angle and output rate, as if there were a pair of sensitive hands behind it constantly controlling its state.

"If it's a cruiser, one set of engines is enough. But, since it's a dreadnought, you must use more than ten sets. You must use the phased array to adjust the angle at any time." Krell said proudly: "How about , so agile that it doesn't belong to a weapon, just like a dancing girl."

"I thought you wanted to say, it's as flexible as your tongue that can tie knots on rose vines dipped in mustard." Yu Lian laughed.

"Mustard rose vines are too much, I practice with cherry vines... Uh, wait, who said that?"

"...Well, maybe it was Helena, or Renee? I can't remember exactly." Yu shrugged: "In short, it was told to me at the last banquet."

All in all, the current large-scale galaxy-class ships contain two different propulsion systems, the jump engine and the regular sublight engine in the galaxy.Regardless of the former, the latter is also collectively referred to as the "sublight engine".

Of course, this does not mean that they can really push the speed of the ship to more than 70.00% of the light beam, which is the "sub-light speed" in the scientific sense, but just a general term that is slightly slower than the absolute speed of light.

The first-generation sub-light speed engine is mainly installed at the tail of the hull, and it was born in line with the mainstream idea of ​​facing the enemy with the bow.However, after years of evolution, although the utilization rate of energy is improving, and the absolute speed and battery life of the engine have also been improved to a considerable extent, it is still essentially the design idea of ​​this generation.

In contrast, the Cloud Giant engine, which adopts the unified control of the phased array, places different engine groups at the tail of the ship and arranges them in a fan-shaped arrangement, so that the output rate of a single engine can be adjusted at any time according to the battle, so that it can carry all The ship performed a very smart super maneuver.

...Although a huge ship tens of thousands of meters long always feels that something is wrong when maneuvering.

In addition, if the phased array management system fails, all engine output rates will have to be adjusted semi-manually by the crew.At that time, the scene must be infinitely close to the age of sailing, those sailors dragging hemp ropes.At that time, the battlefield performance may not be as good as the traditional engine.

Because of this, it is clear that this phased array unified engine module has appeared for more than 20 years, but it has always been suspected by conservatives.Most of them are used on small assault ships and destroyers, and the cloud giant engine system is the first intelligent engine group on a battleship.

"As far as I know, all the equipment with the smart prefix will eventually become an artificial mental retardation that embarrasses both our own people and the enemy. To be on the safe side, the crew on the main god class must have four more damage control than the independent class group, eight energy control groups, and ten ignition groups, a total of 2000 more people, and they are all technical arms. Coupled with the sailing subsidy, the main god class will spend several more on personnel expenses and daily maintenance every year. Billion." Yu Lian sighed: "Because of this issue, I have already taken a lot of pressure. Brother Krell, you should know that all issues involving military expenditures are sensitive issues on the side of the earth. .”

Claire nodded with a look of sympathy.

"Also, this is leaving aside the most important issue of battlefield security and stability. Brother Krell, I think, as a guinea pig, our country can fully afford to devote itself to death!"

Claire rolled his eyes inwardly, but on the surface he continued to nod with sympathy.
