Him and their stars.

Chapter 999 The girls are also quite energetic

According to the original plan, there are three lightwing ships that are undergoing the last maintenance in Gibraltar.Although Yu Lian was very reassured about Liuli, Red Star Office, and RN Shipyard, but since he came here, he didn't pretend to go up to see it for himself, which probably lacked a little meaning.

So, Yu Lian routinely inspected the two boats belonging to the "Red Comet" rowing team, and chatted with Jean Cook by the way.The latter was a little embarrassed, and apologized for declining Yu Lian's invitation last time on the Navy Festival, but Yu Lian said that since he found a promising job like the interstellar express brother, of course it was Focus on work.As a person who has escaped from vulgar interests, real social labor must be more important than showing off.

Brother Cook was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help feeling that Your Excellency General really understands me.

"But, isn't it a show to participate in the rowing race?" He couldn't help asking again.

This is really a straightforward and outstanding young man!However, Yu Lian was not surprised. A person who could drive a battleship at the age of fifty should indeed be this person when he was young.

Therefore, Yu Lian patiently explained to the other party: "This is not a show. You are now the flag of all the couriers in the galaxy! You just want to let them see who holds the power."

The benefits of being young, the small brother Cook, who is not tall and weak, seems to be filled with blood into a man who can run a horse on his arms, and the sense of mission in his eyes seems to be able to ignite the universe.

After appeasing everyone in the rowing team, Yu Lian came to the innermost berth of the independent dock.

Different from the previous two sister ships, the armor plate on the right side of this ship has been smeared with a pattern of long swords and sickles crossed on the yin-yang fish.

Yu Lian knew that it was the sign of the New Shenzhou Star Area Guard.

The polity of the Commonwealth, as one might imagine, was modeled entirely on the Union.A large number of republics and even kingdoms within the alliance have their own local armies; then in the community, the military power of the local garrison is in the hands of the star area government, which is actually very reasonable.

You must know that the reason why the community is regarded as the third largest military power is that a large part of its combat power on paper is actually counted in the local guards and planetary defense forces in each star region.

During the period of the independent battlefield, in order to gather as much strength as possible, the earliest founding fathers really made a considerable compromise with various powerful factions.As a result, it has also created old and young survivors like the Gongrong Party, and economic compradors like the Political Friendship Party. Similarly, there are naturally powerful local factions like the Xinyumen Baijia.Although they claim to be elected by the people, they have already been regarded by many people as the local princes of the New Yumen star area. It was not until Mr. Qi became the governor that such weird words were slightly better.

Of course, since it is a "local vassal", in addition to having a "moderate" and well-equipped planetary defense team in the New Shenzhou Star Region, there is also a good-sized Star Region Guard Fleet.Although it is only the establishment of the security fleet, there are heavy patrols and light mothers under its banner, and the quality of the crew is not weak.

In the nearly half a century after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the local fleet of New China has cooperated with the Ninth Fleet stationed in the far-shore star region several times, and has a record of fighting the Kaitai Mewman and the Bakwe Birdman in the Star Gorge of Earl I. of.

Such a group of local powerful factions with strong folk customs and abundant wood will naturally not attract anyone's attention if they buy a small-sized new ship from the RN shipyard.

Of course, the middle section of the belly of this shuttle-shaped aircraft was originally a place that could be converted into a cabin and a passenger cabin, but it was directly pulled together to form a relatively spacious cabin, surrounded by some very professional equipment on the shore. Looks like it's for military use.

In this way, the middle cabin of this light-winged ship...

"It's very much like the magazine of a bomber." Luo Zeshi thought, "Actually, no, it's more like the magazine of a lightning strike destroyer."

Yu Lian smiled and said: "Look, with such a design, at least eight space bubble torpedoes or twelve puzzle proton torpedoes can be installed at one time." Yu Lian laughed: "In comparison, the White Devil fighter is only It can hold one, and it will sacrifice the rest of the fighter’s armament and ammunition, and its survivability will also decrease. But if it is replaced with a small warship, the effect will be quite different. We can even equip it with shields and jump engines.”

Luo Zeshi nodded, but then asked suspiciously: "Then, what is the meaning?"

Of course, it is to realize my dream of the aircraft carrier party.Yu Lian thought about it, but said, "That's the homework I gave you."

After all, this is really just my own imagination. Even in another timeline, this universe has never entered the era of the aircraft carrier party, but now that this condition has been met, it is always difficult not to try it out.

Yu Lian wasn't sure whether the aircraft carrier tactics were realized by small fighter planes or speedboat-style small warships, so he had to try both.

The former is naturally Baolu and Martha's White Devil Fighter Team, which has already demonstrated a considerable degree of combat effectiveness in the New World.But whether it can become a revolutionary tactical change still needs more time and battle cases to observe.

And the latter is this light-winged ship.

Luo Zeshi was not dissatisfied with Yu Lian's mystification, on the contrary he was thoughtful.

Yu Lian was very satisfied with this attitude. In another timeline, his little friend became the director of equipment and training of the Volunteer Army, and he was also in charge of the development of the Cang Fang fighter.It can be said that the complete form of student Chester Roses is an equipment expert and a technical commander who is very good at creating new tactics through new equipment.

The reason why I play tricks is that I don't want to interfere with his thinking. If he thinks about it by himself, he might be able to figure out more detailed and feasible tactics.

...Of course, it's fine if the other party tells me it's not feasible.In this way, Yu Lian can completely give up the feelings of his previous life, and become a cannon giant ship party and a gang-knocking party with a unified body and mind.

"The new Shenzhou Garrison Fleet is still very interested in Guangyi, and is willing to cooperate with me to test the performance of this new warship. Of course, if it is a big success, I hope to buy a batch at a discount." Yu Lian looked at it Roses.

"If it really succeeds, it will be a living advertisement for RN Shipyard. Of course, my father and brother would like it very much." Luo Zeshi laughed.

"But, if the torpedoes are used in space, does the local guard fleet have the qualifications to purchase such weapons?" Liu Li asked.

"It depends on the efforts of Mr. Qi and Mr. Bai. Anyway, we are just going to buy a few for experimentation." Yu Lian said with a smile: "The chairman and the top military have already focused all their attention on the Alliance Taita slipway. The few new dreadnoughts are on board, and the auxiliary and small ships are handed over to the local guard fleet for testing, which can save a lot of central military expenses."

Even Papa Paris only asked a few questions about the test of this light-winged ship, but for those fearless, he asked Yu Lian to be careful and cautious, saying that he must not be taken by the alliance. If it is possible, Yu Lian should rely on his relationship with the top management of the alliance to cheat the other party.

Even Papa Paris, who is too conscientious and even too meticulous, is like this, so how can he expect others?
But this is also very good, not every birth of a new weapon must be highly anticipated.In a sense, it doesn't matter if no one pays attention, doesn't it sound more interesting to make a blockbuster when it comes to actual combat?
"People from the New Shenzhou Guard Team will come to take over the ship next week, that is, on October 10th. I plan to finish handing over with them, and then set off with the Red Comet team." Liuli said to Yu Lian: "To See you at the league then."

"Okay, maybe you can catch up with Feifei walking the red carpet at the Yagomi Awards." Yu Lian smiled.

"I will definitely catch up." Liuli said with a smile, "Daina and Lilia bought a far-shore film company together, and they are also affiliated with the group. You can't just let the profiteers of the league take away the box office. I just happened to be able to drop by and talk to Universal Group about it."

... all I can say is good luck.Yu Lian had to admit that even though Liuli had evolved into "Red Tikka", she was still a little tender in the face of that white-haired fox.

"However, then again, one of them raises cattle and farms, and the other repairs the light track and trains the militia. Are they usually so free?"

"To be honest, the two of them are quite free." Liuli admitted directly: "The one who is really busy is Zhixia. The government will change at the end of the year, and one-third of the congressmen will be re-elected. As a representative of the district, to participate in the election."

It's been a while since I've seen you, you all are so energetic!

Yu Lian and his supervisory team passed through the Gibraltar galaxy. It stands to reason that they should socialize with the current commander of the Outer Rim Fleet, Admiral Ferdi Bonaparte.However, I don't know if it was a coincidence that when Yu Lian was passing by, His Excellency the Commander was not in the local area, but went out for training with two old independent-class dreadnoughts that had just been maintained.

On the contrary, Lieutenant General Shahrukh Lapash, Chief of Staff of the Fleet, received Yu Lian in the Admiral's dining room of the Fleet Headquarters, and even treated him to a meal of the courage pot that is characteristic of the Outer Ring Fleet.

Yu Lian's image of the Chief of Staff was not good, but he was not disgusted either, at least not to the point where it would affect his appetite, so he naturally went there happily.

However, during the Battle of the West End Galaxy three years ago, this man was the Chief of Staff of the Outer Ring Fleet, and he still is.When we met last time, he was Lieutenant General Lapache, and Yu Lian was an ordinary student who didn't even have an official military rank, but now, the difference between the two is only one star.Normal people should feel a little awkward. .

Of course, there are gossip that Lieutenant General Lapash will be promoted back to Earth to report on his duties soon. It is said that he will directly enter the National Defense Committee. The general mood is good now, and he explained to Yu Lian:

"No way. Your Excellency, Commander, is a person who is very detail-oriented. We must always ensure that our main battleships remain available. Now the entire outer ring fleet, only these two dreadnoughts are left. But our defense zone must not only Facing the pressure from the Kaitais, the Bakwes, and even the empire behind them, we still need to support the Far Coast Star Region. But on the other side, the Kingdom of Ledora and the Coordinating Minister of Turank, although they belong to the camp of the Alliance, But it's not necessarily friendly!"

"Uh, aren't we also on the alliance side?" Yu Lian asked knowingly.

"It's because we are also part of the alliance that the relationship is a bit delicate!" Lieutenant General Lapash said casually, but then he realized something, and quickly waved his hand with a wry smile: "Brother Yu Lian, we are old comrades who fought side by side after all. , you can’t hurt me! I never said such a thing, and our community is also following an independent third-party foreign policy, and we have not joined any camp.”

"What you said really sounds like a diplomat. No, you will definitely become a top diplomat."

Probably because Yu Lian's smile was too sincere, he didn't seem to think there was any irony here, but said with a smile: "Indeed, Brother Yu Lian, when I return to Earth this time, after I get a general rank, I will be a general." Thinking about retiring and participating in politics. The chairman promised that if he has a second term, he will ask me to serve in the Foreign Affairs Committee! Hahaha, if all the new dreadnoughts in our country are in place by then, I should also have one. A very good tenure, huh?"

...well, at least he understood the nature of diplomacy.

Perhaps Lieutenant General Lapash knew that he was running out of time in the Outer Ring Fleet, but he was more dedicated than when Yu Lian saw him last time, and said again: "But, as I said just now, the Outer Ring Fleet The pressure is too great. The newly arrived Dauntless should not be sent to the solar system fleet, but will be equipped with us first!"

"It's not up to me." Yu Lian shrugged.

"But your opinion is very important." The lieutenant general held Yu Lian's hands tightly: "Brother, you are also from the Outer Ring Fleet!"

Well, strictly speaking, if "internal suppression" is not counted, Yu Lian's first "foreign war" was fought in the outer ring fleet, so it can be regarded as the "insider" of the outer ring fleet.

"However, apart from these relationships, I do tend to hand over the new dreadnoughts to the Outer Ring Fleet." At that time, Yu Lian said to his subordinates: "They are indeed facing the most difficult defense pressure. However, the Outer Ring Fleet Of the original six Independence-class dreadnoughts in the fleet, there are only two left that can be used, and they really need to replenish their combat power."

Colonel Silva said helplessly: "But, the officer has already heard that the four battleships completed next year will all be allocated to the solar system fleet!"

Isn't it too extravagant for a cutting-edge warship to be used as a road specimen?Yu Lian managed to hold back from rolling his eyes.

Colonel Silva looked at Yu Lian carefully, and said, "The Solar System Fleet has performed quite well in this expedition to the New World, and it is only logical that they will be equipped with new warships."

Indeed, no matter how ugly the fight was at the beginning, the expeditionary force with the solar system fleet as the main force did capture the Devil's Throat Fortress before the empire.

Although the real commander, Yang Xiyi, has nothing to do with the solar system fleet, at least Admiral Connerys can be regarded as a good leader.

"Moreover, according to the National Defense Committee and the Parliament, the new dreadnought is a perfect combination of protection, firepower and speed, which is just right for the operational needs of the solar system fleet to see maneuvering power. Therefore, it should be the priority to equip the solar system fleet with new ships , allocate the old-fashioned, relatively cumbersome Independence-class dreadnoughts to the Outer Rim Fleet as the Border Great Wall."

Well, from the perspective of equipment configuration and tactical requirements, it seems that there is really no problem to be found, at least it is no problem to convince most of the congressmen.

"Besides, the next year will be the [-]th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. The solar system fleet has made great achievements in expeditions to the New World, and now it has new fearlessness. Only in this way can we show our military strength to the people." The colonel continued.

Yu Lian reckoned that this should be the real reason.
