Interstellar: Start as a cleaner.

Chapter 1088: Saving the Fleet (7000 words)
When the members of the Pandora Planet Parliament saw that Bart was actually going to hold a lottery to give away mechas, they all called and cursed people from various departments on the planet.

"You idiots, quickly send the person Viscount Bart wants away!"

"What are you still wasting time for, you idiots? Send the people Viscount Bart needs to the warship and don't let the losses get any worse."

"Hurry up, you idiots!"

Originally, these members of the planetary parliament wanted to scold Bart, but they didn't dare.

When these congressmen saw Bart's new subordinates looting everything they could in the airport, their faces turned green!
A fleet has a lot of reserve supplies.

Now these reserve supplies are being plundered by Bart.

Then I use these things I have looted to start live broadcasts.

This is not a live broadcast, this is clearly a slap in the face!
Use the spoils just captured as live broadcast rewards.

But now these congressmen did not dare to say anything to Bart, and could only curse at the heads of the departments who were carrying out the tasks.

The heads of various departments on Pandora now have to send away all the people Viscount Bart wants as their first priority.

Because Viscount Bart never left, four shining warships were flying in the sky.

What the members of the Pandora Planet Parliament are more worried about now is that if Viscount Bart achieves the second phase of the plan, will there be a third phase plan?

After all, Viscount Bart’s four warships are now lurking in space.

The longer it drags on, the greater the loss will be if Viscount Bart decides to ask for compensation or something.

Because Viscount Bart himself has a bad character, who knows if he will change his mind later, and even if he changes his mind, Pandora does not dare to act rashly now.

The ground defense systems of the other eleven cities have been activated, but they dare not turn on the radar to lock the four warships.

However, all personnel of the ground defense system are in place, just in case Viscount Bart suddenly changes his mind.

As for the rich and powerful people on Pandora, they are now terrified.

Because the Brotherhood has proven that no matter how strong a fortress is, it is nothing compared to the energy cannons of a battleship.

The powerful people on Pandora all felt some regret in their hearts.

I should have managed the fleet better earlier.

Now these powerful people have been communicating privately, and after this incident, they must rebuild a real fleet.

This incident on Pandora brought a huge impact to the entire interstellar society.

Especially in terms of fleet management and fleet empowerment.

In fact, the remaining fleet of Pandora now has no combat effectiveness at all.

All the C-class and D-class battleships were empty.

What's even funnier is that the fleet hasn't received any authorization yet.

In other words, the remaining dozens of warships, even if they are fully armed, have no authorization and can do nothing.

Everyone is paying attention to Bart's live broadcast. Bart is the only person in today's society whose live broadcast is stuck.

"I'm in a good mood today, so I took out two thousand mechas to make everyone happy." After the network stabilized, Yang Bo looked at the more than 18 billion people in the live broadcast room and said proudly.

Seeing Bart's boasting, no matter who it is, no one can say that Bart is boasting, because he should be boasting. If he doesn't show off, who else can show off?

"Our old nobles are still the best!" Someone sent another full-screen message.

Yang Bo ignored the information and directly showed a list: "This is the mecha to be delivered today. Although it is only the sixth and seventh generation mecha, it is completely suitable for civilian use."

"Moreover, this type of military mecha is much higher in performance and quality than the same type of civilian mecha."

“If anyone wins the prize, please take a screenshot and send me a private message. I will also commission a professional organization in the winner’s country to perform modifications free of charge to ensure that it meets the standards of that country.” Yang Bo said.

The messages in the lower left corner kept flashing on the screen, making it impossible to see what messages were sent.

In the time it took to say a few words, the number of people watching the live broadcast had exceeded 20 billion.

Yang Bo remembered that he had read a report in the Alliance, which said that the entire interstellar society had only 20 billion people.

The main reason is that there is no accurate figure for the population of the Empire and the Federation.

Many people in the noble territories in the empire are not registered in the empire.

It’s similar on the federal side. There are a lot of gray industries on the federal side, so there are too many fake identity information.

"Viscount Bart is awesome!"

"Viscount Bart is generous!"

"Viscount Bart 666!"

"Viscount Bart is awesome!" When the people in the live broadcast room heard Bart say this, they all made comments like this.

"Two thousand mechas have been numbered. Please take a look at mecha No. 0001. This is a fifth-generation mecha with a market value of about million blue coins. Of course, the weapon system on the mecha needs to be dismantled. The dismantled weapon system can almost offset the cost of the modification!"

"Of course there are some seventh-generation and eighth-generation mechas here. It all depends on your luck."

"And the mecha models here are also slightly different. You can check the model data of these two thousand mechas by yourself. Each mecha has its own identity information." In order to draw a lottery, Yang Bo directly took out two thousand mechas and directly changed these two thousand mechas to number two thousand.

This is mainly because some people want to argue after the lottery because some of the mechas have different configurations.

"Of course, I have the final right of interpretation for this event. If anyone is not satisfied with the lottery, they can give up the prize!" Yang Bo added.

"If the winner does not need the mecha, he can come to me to exchange it for the corresponding blue coins or credit points." Yang Bo said again.

"The first round of draws will begin in one minute, please deduct 1!"

"The first round of the lottery will be for mechas 001 to 100."

"One hundred mechas were drawn in the first round, and the result of the draw was entirely determined by the platform's built-in draw function!" Yang Bo's mouth was split with laughter. Twenty billion people watched the live broadcast, and each person got one thousand points.

This one thousand points is the currency of the platform, equivalent to one thousand credit points.

If 20 billion people watch your live broadcast, how much money can you earn?

Twenty trillion!

Of course, apart from the platform's commission, the amount is not that much.

But there were more people coming in later.

Although it seems like a lot of money, it is really not enough.

I wonder how much it would cost to upgrade all four B-class battleships.

From the internal main brain to the various operating systems, to the supporting ammunition and supporting mecha drones, etc., it would cost at least 10 trillion to upgrade a B-class battleship to a completely new mode.

Because upgrading this type of warship is much more expensive than building a new one.

Because the old model battleships are being upgraded, everything has to be specially manufactured and designed.

Because the old models of warships have limited space.

So the more than 1 billion people in the live broadcast room started to deduct .

Then the live broadcast room was a bit laggy again, mainly because there were too many people sending messages.

The live broadcast platform urgently added various servers.

Yang Bo waited for a minute and then said, "The lottery begins!"

Then user names appeared one by one in the live broadcast room. These were the 100 users selected in the lottery.

"Please ask the 100 lucky winners to fill in their addresses. I will communicate with the official platform." Yang Bo said as he looked at the 100 people who were selected in the lottery.

"Now everyone deduct 1, and then one hundred people will be drawn in one minute. Those who have already won the prize will no longer be able to participate!" Yang Bo said again.

Then there was a large group of people in the live broadcast room, constantly deducting 1.

Yang Bo seems bored now as he has nothing to do.

"Your Excellency, our family members have arrived!" Fifteen minutes later, Carson came to report.

"Are you sure you have received all of them?" Yang Bo drew sixteen rounds of prizes and had already drawn out one thousand six hundred mechas.

"Confirmed it has been received." Carson nodded.

"Then let's go and leave the Federation first!"

"Yes!" Carson nodded.

In fact, Yang Bo can control four warships by himself.

Moreover, this combat mission did not allow Yang Bo to reveal too many of his cards.

Who could have thought that the people on these warships would turn against them? The original plan was to only seize one warship, but unexpectedly they managed to seize four warships so easily.

What's more, I didn't expect that these warships required layers of authorization before they could move.

As for the other dozens of warships parked in the airport, not only are there no people on board, but they also have not received any authorization, which makes Yang Bo feel unbelievable.

Of course, under this federal system, no one trusts the people who operate the warships.

Mainly, the people of the Federation do not have any faith.

If the officers and soldiers of the Federation’s planetary fleets could obtain enough authority, do you believe that they would dare to drive warships directly to rob money?

The Alliance is completely different from the Empire.

In the Alliance's warships, even if the captain has been fully authorized, if the captain orders an attack on the parliament on the ground or something, he will be resisted by the soldiers on and off the warship.

The same is true in the Empire!
"There are only 400 mechas left. Please deduct one from me and I will give them away all at once!"

"Because my fleet is about to leave Pandora, the next step the fleet will take is to sail in silence to prevent someone from launching a sneak attack on me." Yang Bo looked at the number of people watching the live broadcast, which had reached 30 billion. Bart had made a lot of money this time.

Four B-class battleships, the reputation this operation brought to Bart, and the tens of trillions earned from live broadcasts.

After the last 400 mechas were sent out, the address of the backend email was confirmed by the platform.

"Huh?" Yang Bo was speechless when he saw the four messages sent by the platform.

There were four people on Pandora who were infected with mechas, but they did not want the mechas. They asked him and their families to follow Viscount Bart's battleship to leave, and they wanted to immigrate to the Alliance or the Empire.

"Carson, send someone to pick up these four people and their families." Yang Bo had no choice but to give the order.

"Yes!" Carson immediately went to execute.

Carson directly dispatched four fighter jets and communicated with Pandora first.

"My Lord, Pandora has sent some information." The security officer of the warship that Yang Bo was on said loudly.

Yang Bo opened the message sent by the security officer and found that it was from Ruth, Luo Meng, and Wang Rui.

These three people went straight to the armed forces that took over the Brotherhood city, saying that they had sold 200,000 missiles to Viscount Bart, that they were Viscount Bart's men, and demanded that the armed forces send them and their families to the warships!
When the armed forces from other cities heard this, they did not dare to be careless and quickly reported it.

"Take it!" Yang Bo waved his hand. He had come into contact with these three workers before, and maybe they would be held accountable in the future.

"Yes!" the security officer nodded.

Ruth, Roman, and Wang Rui were anxiously waiting in the brotherhood's city, and there were security forces from other cities eyeing them covetously.

It's just that these security forces from other cities are now exchanging fire with each other.

The security forces in the other eleven cities are nominally there to maintain law and order, but in reality they are just occupying territory.

Luo Meng and the other two knew that if they didn't leave, they would be in great danger.

Although the sale of 200,000 missiles was decided by the company's top management.

But the company's top management will definitely not take the blame.

That leaves three unlucky souls who have come into contact with Bart in person.

So Luo Meng and the other two discussed it carefully before taking the risk of revealing their identities in person.

The three people waited for a few minutes, and then a message came on their communicators, indicating that a fighter plane would come to pick up the three people and their families in ten minutes.

The three of them burst into tears on the spot. No one had expected that this day would come.

If Bart didn't do anything, the three people would definitely be caught by the security forces who were watching them closely.

Half an hour later, Viscount Bart left Pandora with his loyal fleet and loyal subordinates.

Everyone on Pandora breathed a sigh of relief, watching the four warships getting smaller and smaller in the sky.

The dignitaries and planetary council members of Pandora all left the safe place.

Small-scale conflicts have already broken out in the city where the Brotherhood is located.

Security forces sent by each of the eleven cities are fighting for territory in the name of takeover.

The remaining members of the Brotherhood were all arrested by these security forces.

Fighter planes, mechas, drones, and infantry delivered by transport planes.

The security forces in the eleven cities, on the one hand, were recruiting members of the Brotherhood, and on the other hand, they were broadcasting to the occupied areas, requiring all people in the occupied areas to register, including property registration and population registration.

The Brotherhood has completely become history. If this is a city, and now supports those who have survived the Brotherhood, then the Brotherhood can rise again.

But this is impossible, the eleven cities are not united.

So the so-called security forces of the eleven cities fought each other over territory.

And Viscount Bart's fleet entered a period of silent sailing.

But Bart only felt that his fame was known throughout the interstellar society.

In the virtual chat room of the Xinhuohuo Club, a vice president said: "We have lost three more members!"

"If you die, then die. Since you're a killer, you must be prepared to die!"

"To be honest, I look down on them. People like them deserve it."

"This Bart is so damn awesome."

"The Federation's management is too chaotic. It has been more than a day since Bart left Pandora, and all the warships of Pandora's planetary fleet have not moved at all."

"Except for a few main fleets, the rest of the Federation's fleet is just empty pay. The Pandora Planet Fleet is nominally full, but in fact only one-third of the people are there, and only one-sixth of the full staff are actually working!"

"All the captains in the fleet are not on the warships, and some captains have not been on a warship for decades. They are all doing their own business!"

"So right now Pandora's fleet simply doesn't have the right people."

"Tsk tsk, that's really bad!"

"Moreover, armed forces from eleven cities on Pandora are now fighting for territory in the Brotherhood's city."

"Bart is such an amazing guy!"

"This guy is so bold that he actually bought 200,000 missiles directly from Pandora and then turned around to attack Pandora!"

"Haha, the elites trained by us nobles are not comparable to ordinary elites!"

"Bah, it's you old nobles who are offering a 500 billion bounty for Bart's death."

"Hey, do you think Bart dares to fire at the planet on the Empire's side if he gets four B-class battleships?"

“Haha, I’m looking forward to this too!”

"Too bad we don't know who is offering a reward to Bart's family, otherwise we could provide Bart with information for free!"

"Hehe, the Empire may be in for another good show. As far as I know, Bart has been attacked more than once. If the Empire doesn't give him an explanation!"

"I think with Bart's bad character, he might be able to beat up the emperor of the empire!"

"Haha, the emperor of the empire must be worried."

"roll!"

The club's secretary general, Robin, also smiled bitterly. No wonder he felt there were some problems in contacting this Bart. He didn't expect this guy to have such a personality.

B-class battleship!
Even if it is an old B-class battleship, it is still a B-class battleship.

Own four ships at once!

BAT can be said to be the strongest armed force possessed by the country.

Even those pirate groups are no match for Bart's four B-class battleships.

Because B-class battleships are limited to three countries, no individual or private armed force is allowed to own them.

Bart and his four B-class battleships disappeared, and the military of the Empire and the Alliance directly implemented level one combat readiness.

Because no one knows where Bart and his four warships will appear.

As for the various states in the federation, they were even more afraid that Bart would cause trouble for them when passing by.

Although these people think that they have not offended Bart, but with Bart's bad temper, who knows if he will be so upset that he will come to greet them when he passes by!
Yang Bo placed an energy stone with space coordinates directly in the safe room of the captain's room of the fleet's flagship.

First, I took a stroll around Prince Holden’s territory in the second world.

Then he strolled around March Star and showed up in Kalaya State!

The Kalaya State Assembly is also in some confusion now because the Kalaya State fleet is even worse.

Then Yang Bo turned into Bart and returned to the fleet.

"Lord Lord!!"

"My Lord!!!" Yang Bo turned into Bart and left the captain's safe house, then left the captain's room. The officers and soldiers he met on the way saluted him one after another.

"Yeah!" Yang Bo nodded.

Yang Bo is now also worried about where to place the four warships.

The emperor of the Blue Water Empire would surely not be able to sleep well if he put it under his name, but he was unwilling to hand it over.

Even if the Empire is willing to buy the warships at a high price, he would not be happy.

What do you do with the money?
No amount of money can buy four B-class battleships.

"Hello?" Yang Bo thought about it and called Su Ruoxin.

Although the fleet is sailing alone, it has a space quantum communication module.

"You thought of calling me!" Su Ruoxin was very excited that Bart called her.

Because Bart is a person who surprises himself every once in a while.

"Ask your father if I can keep these four warships. After all, your father is sometimes not able to do some dirty work, and I can do it for him." Yang Bo thought about it and decided that this was the only way to keep his warships.

"I'm afraid that won't work. Even if my father agrees, the Council of Nobles won't agree!" Su Ruoxin responded when she heard this.

"It's not like we own them openly. It's fine as long as these four warships don't enter the territory of the empire!" Yang Bo certainly knew that some things were not decided by the emperor alone, but every time there is a policy, there is a countermeasure.

It would be fine as long as their warships do not return to the empire's territory, but if they want to station four warships outside, they must obtain the consent of the Emperor of the Blue Empire.

On the one hand, he had to settle so many people, and on the other hand, the fleet outside also needed supplies and the like.

"Let me ask for you!" After hearing what Bart said, Su Ruoxin could roughly guess what Bart meant.

"what?"

"This little bastard made a fuss when he didn't have warships, and now he wants four warships?" The emperor of the Blue Water Empire immediately asked back when he heard this.

Bart's bastard personality is such a headache, he always causes some big trouble from time to time.

Now that we have four B-class battleships, who knows how big a mess this guy will make.

"Father, don't you think Bart is a very good card? And it can be said that he is also a backup for us."

"On the surface, this has nothing to do with our royal family, but in fact, this is our royal family's new trump card."

"The conflict between the old and new nobles is becoming more and more intense!"

"The pressure on our royal family is increasing!"

"Nominally, the battleship belongs to Bart, but a battleship requires a lot of professional personnel, and Bart doesn't have the background!"

"Moreover, we need to collect warships, upgrade them, and resupply them with materials."

"If we don't agree, will Bart contact some old nobles?"

"What if Bart places the warships outside our territory? Or even directly rents some ports in the alliance? Or rents some airports in the federation for docking? Do we have any solution?" Su Ruoxin had thought about it before making the call.

The emperor of the Blue Water Empire felt a pang in his heart when he heard this.

What Su Ruoxin mentioned are possibilities. If Bart goes to find those old nobles, those old nobles will definitely be willing to support Bart behind the scenes and let him own a few warships.

After all, having a few B-class battleships as trump cards is better than having none at all.

Thinking of this and the conflict between Bart and the old nobles, the emperor of the Blue Water Empire felt a little fortunate.

"Then you negotiate with him. His fleet must have two-thirds of our people!"

"In addition, any action of his fleet must be approved by me!" The emperor of the Blue Water Empire thought for a while and stated two conditions.

"it is good!"

Yang Bo received Su Ruoxin's call and immediately agreed: "Don't even mention two-thirds. I'm still short of five-sixths of the professionals on my warship, and I'm afraid many more people will leave."

"My actions must be approved by His Majesty. After all, your people are already in the fleet."

The reason why Yang Bo agreed immediately was because he was alone and could control the fleet at any time.

In addition, warships also require more professional personnel to control.

There are also warships that need to be upgraded and maintained, and only the royal family has such great power.

Yang Bo had thought about winning over some nobles and using these warships as his trump card.

But there is another problem here!
That is, even the old nobles who are on good terms with him will have conflicts when facing certain interests.

Moreover, if he wins over these old nobles, they might try to seize his power.

It would be better to surrender directly to His Majesty. The power of the royal family is much stronger than that of a single noble.

What’s more important is that the emperor needs people to do the dirty work and they won’t take away his power.

If the emperor tried to seize his power, he would openly break off relations with him.

Then the great nobles in the country would certainly not want the emperor to have such a fleet abroad.

The top priority now is to settle these warships.

"Did you really agree?" Su Ruoxin was still a little unconvinced when she heard Bart's answer!

Yang Bo said angrily: "I just want to grab a battleship this time."

"My plan is to seize a battleship, and then use one battleship to bombard the other battleships!"

"Now I have four ships at once. If you say you don't want them, it will be a waste!"

"This costs a lot of money from beginning to end. A few warships require nearly tens of thousands of people, and tens of thousands of senior professionals. How much is their monthly salary?"

"The key is where can I find such professional people? I dare not hand over the entire fleet to these people from the Federation!"

"Maybe I won't be able to use these warships for dozens or hundreds of years!"

Su Ruoxin chuckled when she heard this: "Have you ever thought about contacting other old nobles?"

Yang Bo chuckled: "Do you think I'm stupid? I'm from an old noble family. I don't know the character of those old nobles. Even if I win over three or five old nobles, believe it or not, these old nobles will kick me out of the fleet in less than two years!"

"Your Majesty is different. If Your Majesty kicks me out of the fleet, I will break off relations with him and let those nobles deal with Your Majesty!"

When Su Ruoxin heard what Bart said, she naturally knew that Bart was using this to threaten her, but she had to admit that what Bart said made sense.

Su Ruoxin played the recording of her conversation with Bart to the Emperor of the Blue Water Empire.

"This kid is really lucky!" The emperor of the Shuilan Empire also shook his head.

"Take your men to meet Bart immediately, and then we'll talk." The emperor of the Blue Water Empire asked Su Ruoxin to meet Bart first.

"Um!!"

Yang Bo also agreed that Su Ruoxin should take his men onto the fleet first. After all, the emperor would definitely not unilaterally tell him where he could dock the warship. He would definitely have to wait until the emperor's men got on the warship before he would tell him.

"Finally it's saved!" Yang Bo breathed a sigh of relief.
