The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons

The Shanhaiguan fortress galaxy is one of the three core fortresses in the northern border of the empire spanning more than 14,000 light-years from east to west.

The location is located on the east side of the spiral arm, more than 3,000 light-years away from the eastern edge of the spiral arm, in the middle of the upper and lower sides of the spiral arm, at the key intersection between the star field where the human territory is located and the star field beyond the human border.

Human beings have spent thousands of years deploying a large number of six-level technological interception systems in the uninhabited starry sky between the two star fields to ensure that the fleet led by the normal Titan Super Banner cannot penetrate the world without enhanced penetrating skills or talents. Through this interception system.

As one of the three frontline fortresses of mankind against the Bruwan United Civilization, the Shanhaiguan Fortress and a total of ten galaxies behind it all belong to the Shanhaiguan Fortress system.

It is said that the empire has planted an unimaginable heavy army there, and all the Star Sea Lords and Star Sea Lords of the United Human Empire are obliged to send a division-level fleet to the three major fortress galaxies to accept the three imperial marshals from the three fortress galaxies. command.

The three imperial marshals do not belong to any star sea lord or star marine master, and the fleet sent there will be completely controlled by the three imperial marshals and the military elders of the three fortresses during the service period. mobilized.

This also led to the gathering of troops near the three major war fortresses beyond ordinary people's imagination.

A normal spaceship cannot jump directly or teleport to the Shanhaiguan Fortress through the star gate. It must first pass through a transit galaxy, and the identity of the transit galaxy can be confirmed before teleporting there.

It took Li Qing almost a week to complete all the procedures, and then sent to the Shanhaiguan Fortress again through the transit galaxy.

Normally, it doesn't take that long, mainly because of his identity.

Although he himself doesn't feel much about his status as the lord of the Senate of the Human Empire, and he doesn't feel much about Jinmen, but it seems to be taken seriously within the United Human Empire.

After submitting his identity, it didn't take long for a major who was in charge of this aspect to personally handle it for him, and entered his identity into the defense system of Shanhaiguan Fortress, and directly obtained the level of authority equivalent to that of a major general.

To be honest, when Li Qing first saw this privilege, he felt the role of the lord for the first time. Before that, he really didn't feel much, and he really didn't feel it at Zutal.

After having this privilege, he can come and go to Shanhaiguan at will, and has a series of privileges that other players cannot have, but it will not take effect until entering Shanhaiguan.

As soon as he entered Shanhaiguan, he saw a huge super aircraft carrier slowly flying not far away from the frigate less than 1,000 kilometers away.

The huge super-flagship slowly slid forward, the huge shadow covered all his vision, and the huge figure disappeared after sliding for more than ten minutes.

At this time, I saw that I was in front of a super star city. Looking left and right, there were densely packed warships everywhere.

Compared with the Tianya galaxy, which is almost all strangely shaped spaceships, returning to Shanhaiguan will instantly return to the familiar feeling.

After being sent to Shanhaiguan, Li Qing received more than a dozen messages in an instant, most of which were attention messages sent by the Fortress galaxy official, as well as free updates of the local star map.

It is worth mentioning that this local star map does not refer to Shanhaiguan, but to the entire northern border of the empire.

This is also the privilege of the lord. Other players do not have this privilege when they come here. They can only update the rough star map of the nearby high-security area outside Shanhaiguan. It is impossible to update the entire northern border of the empire with more than 14,000 light year, as well as the entire northern border of the empire and the star field star map of the battle with the Bruwan United Civilization.

Moreover, the information on the star map is very detailed. Except for some top-secret information that is extremely sensitive and even he is inconvenient to know, he can find out most of the content, including where living planets are found in the territories that are being contested outside the border, Where are the rare resources and so on.

In addition, he also has a privilege, which can be directly transmitted to the other two super fortress galaxies through the internal star gate of the fortress, and has the same authority.

This privilege also includes direct teleportation to most of the stargate network within the empire through the stronghold stargate.

Yes, now he can teleport and jump across provinces, because the authority of the three major fortresses of the empire is higher than the gauge of the major provinces.

According to his current authority, the frigate left the queue without any restrictions and went to the center of the fortress galaxy, where there is a transformed four-type planet, a semi-military fortress star, and also the trade area of ​​the fortress, the area where players gather .

The battleship flew on a predetermined route, and Li Qing opened the star map of the fortress galaxy, which showed the internal layout of the fortress galaxy in detail, including the route of the garrison barracks and patrol troops.

Of course, this is kept secret from ordinary players, but it is not a top secret, because these are all displayed on the facade, and anyone who is interested can find out the route.

Li Qing was lying on the command chair, looking at the information he could find with great interest, and couldn't help clicking his tongue while reading, his eyes showing extreme envy.

"When will I be able to have such a strong strength!"

Not to mention the fleet, each of the three core fortresses has gathered about 20% of the fleet of the entire empire. He does not know the exact number, but the basic defense system within the galaxy, the core fortress of Shanhaiguan, is astonishingly strong.

First of all, all the planets or satellites in the entire galaxy in Shanhaiguan were transformed into fixed military fortresses, from the big planets to the satellites, all were transformed into military fortresses.

Then, there are more than three hundred star cities in the galaxy, all of which are super star cities.

In theory, all military leaders of the empire can be contacted through these star gates. In theory, at critical times in the war, a large number of fleets can be immediately mobilized from all over the country to support.

In other words, in order to capture the three super fortresses, one must have the strength to overwhelm the entire United Empire of Mankind head-on.

It is precisely because of this system that humans have fought against the Bruwan United Empire for thousands of years. The two sides have fought back and forth in the star field where the two civilizations meet, but this line of defense has never been breached.

Of course, the Bruwan Union has almost the same super defense line. The two powerful civilizations have been fighting for thousands of years, and they have gone back and forth, but they can't break through the opponent's defense line. The borders of the two sides have not changed for thousands of years.

Not long after, the spacecraft suddenly issued a prompt:

"Affected by the gravitational field of the battle star, the battleship is about to deviate from the course!"

"Under the influence of the battle star's gravitational field, the battleship is about to deviate from the course!"

Li Qing raised his head in a daze, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

At this time, the battleship was passing a huge planet, and he could still see three satellites around the edge of the planet. At first, he thought it was a planetary fortress that had been transformed inside the planet, but he did not expect it to be a mobile battle star and three satellites. month of war.

An all-metal battle star with a diameter of more than 10,000 kilometers is made of hard alloys from the outside to the inside. The innermost part is made of compressed alloy, and the outer part is made of titanium-steel alloy. Standard alloys are not suitable for use here.

And the thick atmosphere outside is the energy shield of the battle star, and he can't imagine how thick the shield value is.

"this thing"

It is simply not something that ordinary fleets can defeat.

There is no need to attack, just urging the change of the gravitational field that comes with the battle star can pull the small and medium-sized warships so that they cannot attack, and the force field flips from gravity to repulsion, which can directly immunize all small and medium-sized weapons.

To deal with this kind of mobile battle star, you can only use a large number of battleships or flagships to face the bombardment, and it can be expected that you will have to pay a heavy price and may not be able to break the shield.

"It's outrageous!"

A smile appeared on Li Qing's face involuntarily. He thought of the battle star in the isolated star field, which was floating alone in the void waiting for his digging.

It was a super battle star and a super mechanical battle body. Not only was it several times larger than the one in front of me, but it was also equipped with weapons and equipment stronger than this one, which was obviously equipped with all six-level technology.

After all, the main body of a Star Sea Lord, when Lord Sen Luo fought against the United Human Empire alone, and challenged the three Star Sea Lords of Kaier Zaka Star Sea Empire, the core combat power is this super battle body.

When he gathers enough force to defeat Lord Sen Luo's personal guards, he will immediately dig out that battle star.

The gravitational field of this battle star should not be turned on, it is only emitted automatically at this time, the gravitational force is not strong, and the frigate can be separated by adjusting the angle and increasing the power.

Li Qing took one last look at the mobile battle star and ordered the battleship to speed up.

After a two-hour voyage, the battleship came to a star field full of battleships, and saw a planet surrounded by twenty super star cities, countless large and small battleships dragged their long tail flames in and out of the planet.

Opening the regional channel, a piece of information popped up immediately. Li Qing read it carefully. It was about the speaking rules of the local regional channel.

Because there are too many players gathered, there will be various restrictions on speaking in local channels.

Only players with the rank of Second Lieutenant of the Empire or above, or players with a trading level of 5 or above can speak on the main channel. Each person can only send one message per day, and it is not allowed to send some meaningless messages, such as chat messages. Blocking, and one of the speaking opportunities of the day will also be used up.

Under the main channel, there are several major categories of channels, such as trade channel, team channel, war channel, etc., and each channel is divided into 100 sub-branch channels.

Branch channels have no speaking restrictions.

For example, Li Qing has the authority equivalent to that of a major general, and he can speak one hundred messages a day in the main channel. It can be said that there is basically no limit as long as he does not use the main channel to chat.

As a newcomer, he didn't know what it meant, so he didn't pay attention to it, so he closed it after reading it and started browsing the local main channel.

The first message on the top is from Shanhaiguan Military Department:

"Bruwan's once-in-ten-year sweep is about to begin. Players who have established personal bases in the warring star field should be prepared to deal with it, and withdraw to the pass immediately in case of danger."

Li Qing immediately connected to the Internet to inquire about what a big raid is, and quickly understood it.

The so-called big sweep means that the Bruwan civilization sends a large number of small fleets into the star field at the junction of the two civilizations every ten years, and sweeps up the personal bases of human players that are as numerous as locusts in this star field.

The meaning of mopping up is not only to clear the human base in the star field, but also to plunder resources.

Although most players' personal bases do not have much supplies, there are too many players in this star field.

The star field at the junction of the two civilizations is more than 14,000 light-years from east to west, 4,000 to 5,000 light-years from north to south, and about 3,000 light-years thick. This is the only area that humans can expand for thousands of years, which leads to this For thousands of years, most of the pioneers have been in this star field. Tens of billions of players have mixed in this star field. I don't know how many personal bases there are.

The accumulation of less makes more, that is, a large number of human players are eliminated, and then hundreds of millions of personal bases are swept.

Not much individually, but the sum is outrageous.

Most of the information in the main channel is various transaction information and advertisements, all of which are related to war. Li Qing glanced at it casually, and saw a large number of merchants selling blueprints of warships and weapon accessories, and all of them were big merchants with sufficient supply kind of.

Many of these big merchants who specialize in selling blueprints or finished warships are themselves representatives of the major military lords.

This is also part of the support of the major military lords to the three core fortresses. It is said that the major military lords sell a certain percentage of the battleship blueprints they copy each year to the three major fortresses every year.

It can be sold directly to the fortress, or it can be sold to players in this way of trade.

However, like other places, although there are many battleship blueprints for sale here, there are still very few flagship blueprints. After browsing the main channel for a few hours, I found five posts selling flagship blueprints.

Three of them have already been sold, and the price of the remaining two is a bit outrageous.

Because the target group is non-pioneers, there is no limit to the price of blueprints. The price of a dreadnought blueprint here is a bit ridiculous, as high as 10 trillion stars.

Of course, these two dreadnought blueprints were not sold because they were too expensive.

Although the flagship is rare, the price is too outrageous.

At least Li Qing can easily come up with ten trillion yuan now, but he will definitely not spend ten trillion yuan to get a blueprint.

If you have money, you have money, and your brain is not bad.

But there is no shortage of people in the world who are stupid and have a lot of money. Among the three flagships sold before, the most expensive one is 6 trillion yuan per piece, which shows that there are quite a lot of sons of stupid landlords.

It took Li Qing almost an hour to search through various advertisements on the main channel and found two advertisements for auctions that were very close in time. After a private chat, he registered first, then found a hotel, and rented a suite for a long time.

It is estimated that they will stay here for a long time, and they cannot always live in the battleship.

In addition to buying things, he plans to use the super melting pot in the palm universe and the high-dimensional fortress to make a lot of money here.

Directly use the current capital to purchase all kinds of cheap ores, and then convert them into rare crystals, and then resell them, which will directly triple the profit.

There are too many players gathered here, and the flow of funds is also high. The daily flow of funds generated by various transactions is estimated to be in trillions, that is, more than billions of billions. He uses the palm universe to earn hundreds of trillions, which will not cause much trouble.
