The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons

  Chapter 87 Surprised by drastic changes

Five large-scale mechanical armored combat platforms, the appearance of this thing is a prism-shaped fortress, with a diameter of 30 meters, with wheels, tracks, and suspensions, etc., to ensure that it can be applied to any environment. The octopus-like mechanical arm is equipped with various weapons. The length is about 50 meters, and it can be freely combined into various fighting methods.

  The main body of the fortress can accommodate 100 soldiers. It has a main gun that is not inferior to the power of the S small naval gun, and eight secondary guns, which can be electromagnetic guns or laser guns, and can be combined freely.

  A total of 16 small short-range missile launchers, 16 short-range anti-aircraft guns, and 64 Gauss machine guns. It is a proper mobile combat fortress with extremely amazing combat effectiveness.

  Twenty small mechanical armored combat platforms, which look the same as large mechanical armored combat platforms, are only ten meters in diameter, have only eight mechanical arms, and are about 30 meters long.

   Can accommodate 20 soldiers, 4 secondary guns, 8 small short-range missile launchers, 4 short-range anti-aircraft guns, and 16 Gauss cannons.

  Fifty amphibious armed armored vehicles, the specifications are 15 meters long and 4 meters wide, equipped with 4 close-in anti-aircraft guns and 12 Gauss cannons, and can accommodate up to 100 soldiers.

  And this is only a battalion's troop configuration. If the combat unit reaches the regiment level, it will be equipped with a large missile vehicle.

  If the combat unit reaches the brigade level, it will be equipped with more powerful weapons.

  As for the air units, it mainly depends on the cooperation of the navy in space. If there is a fleet above the orbit of the planet, the ground troops can call the warships in the orbit to support them according to the situation, and carry out orbital bombing of stubborn military targets on the ground directly from the orbit.

  The buyout price of this mechanical armor unit is different from other units. It is not sold individually, but the minimum purchase unit is a battalion. The price is 15 billion, which is several times that of the alien unit.

  He bought two battalions in one go, spending a total of 30 billion stars, and a total of 50 billion was gone.

   And this is not over yet. Although the aircraft carrier area in the warehouse area has not been built yet, part of it has already been built, and it is ready to be used.

   Still through Yu Yuefei’s channels and relationships, she purchased a total of 50,000 fifth-generation deep space ghost fighters at a price of 4.5 million with a 10% discount, spending a total of 225 billion stars.

   "If you want to buy, buy more."

  If it weren't for the fact that the platform has not been built yet and the capacity is insufficient, he will spend all his money.

I bought 50,000 ships for this trip, and it will be a year after I return to Jinmen next time. At that time, the platform is estimated to be expanded by more than ten times and hundreds of times. At that time, it is possible to gather millions of space fighters in one go. The flagship carrier with no weaknesses is here.

  Normal interstellar motherships also need a large number of **** fleets to protect the mothership, which he doesn't need.

  Two days later, the trading network sent a message that the purple-named scientist he had placed on the trading network had been sold, and the final transaction price was 71 billion stars, which was higher than he had imagined.

Then, Li Qing used all the funds he currently holds, a total of 126 billion personal funds + 990 billion star dollars of Wang Yanqing and others' money, and 45 billion team funds, a total of 1.161 billion star dollars, through Yu Yuefei's personal relationship With the channel, a large number of materials needed by the outpost were purchased at a 10% discount price.

   When Ding Youran returned to the team, a Black Hawk frigate passed through the Jinmen Star Gate to the transit base, and plunged into the starry sky without stopping.

  One and a half months later, the Black Hawk frigate has returned to the outpost.

  Looking at the outpost Star City, which seemed bigger than before, Li Qing said to Ding Youran in his arms:

   "You contact the team at the outpost first, and I'll sell the stuff."

  She nodded obediently:

   "I'll go get in touch."

  The transaction was simple. These goods had already been shipped when they were purchased in Jinmen. He even bought all the transport ships directly. Anyway, there is a shortage of everything in the outpost, even the ships with goods are sold.

Although the war on the outpost base has already ended at this time, various supplies are more abundant than before, and the prices have dropped steadily, so he can no longer earn as much as before, but through Yu Yuefei's relationship, he still got 16% of the price difference. That is, compared with the 16% premium over Jinmen, plus the 10% discount on goods from Jinmen, he can earn a total of 26% of the profit this trip.

   26% of the total 1,161 billion stars is 301.8 billion stars.

   There is no need to share the money earned on this trip with Wang Yanqing and others, he took it all by himself without any hesitation.

  301.8 billion star dollars plus my own personal assets of 126 billion star dollars, now the total assets suddenly become 427.8 billion star dollars, making a fortune.

   It made him think about whether to go for a few more trips.

  At his current speed, he can go back and forth in about three months at full speed, and with a few more trips, he can pay off the debt in the second year.

  Li Qing pinched his chin and thought about it, when he suddenly received a communication from Ding Youran, and after connecting, he saw the beautiful Ding who was still in shock.

  Seeing her like this for the first time, Li Qing was quite surprised, but before he could open his mouth, Ding Youran revealed a piece of news that shocked him:

   "Jalan Star Castle was breached by Brilliant and Aquarius two months ago!"

   "?????"

   Li Qing looked shocked, and his mind was full of question marks.

   "Are they crazy?"

   "I also find it incredible, but it is true."

   "What about the group leader?"

  "Galan Star Fort broke out after being breached, and an unknown fleet followed and attacked them, and they disappeared from behind."

   "?????"

  Li Qing still finds it unbelievable and incomprehensible.

   "Don't they want to hang out?"

"who knows."

   "It's crazy."

  Li Qing was speechless for a while.

   The last time I was so speechless was the last time.

  The joy of earning 300 billion just now disappeared suddenly, and the idea of ​​running a business was thrown into the sky.

   "Now no one knows where the leader and the others have gone?"

   "No news."

   "What about Brilliant and Aquarius?"

   "They returned to the headquarters galaxy after the war, and they haven't gone out for the past two months."

   "Now you know you are afraid?"

  Li Qing squeezed the center of his eyebrows, thought for a while, and said to her:

   "You go to the local channel to send a message to summon the members of the Jialanyuan team. With such a large team, it is impossible for all of them to disappear. Some of them should not be missing. Ask after the assembly, and I will find a way to contact her."

  Ding Youran knew who he was talking about, nodded and said:

   "I'll do it right away."

   "What a headache!"

   This change caught him completely by surprise, and it can only be said that he underestimated the self-control of some people.

Or

  He always feels that something is wrong. Both Brilliant and Aquarius are large teams with many shareholders. It is normal for some people to be stupid, but there is no reason for everyone to be stupid. It is impossible for them not to know the consequences of doing so.

  But after thinking about it, without any basis, I can't think of anything abnormal.

   Disconnecting, he rubbed his forehead, closed his eyes, and his consciousness began to communicate with the psychic saint in the void.

"Um?"

  The psychic saint who could be contacted instantly, this time seemed to be isolated by an invisible force, so he couldn't be contacted.

   Li Qing stood up in an instant with a serious expression on his face.

   "Ye Xiao?"

   "Or other children of the void?"

   There are only these two kinds of people who can isolate the psychic saints, one is the children of other virtual realms, and the other is the evil **** of the virtual realm who favors Ye Xiao.

   But the former.

"Not too possible."

According to what Yu Yueyao said, the sons of the Void Realm who need to be defeated for promotion can only be the Sons of the Void Realm of the same realm, and the Sons of the Void Realm of the same realm may be strong or weak, but it is absolutely impossible to directly ban them completely. With this ability, Yu Yueyao should have been defeated by now.

  Then, it can only be the Void Realm Evil God who favors Ye Xiao.

  Of course, there may be other powerful virtual worlds that they don't know about, but under normal circumstances, who would target them for no reason?

  And looking back on this period of time, it was Ye Xiao who had a grudge against them.

And according to the news that Ding Youran just inquired about, Jialan Star Fort was breached by the two teams of Brilliant and Aquarius. This reminded Li Qing that during the previous military operations, Ye Xiao used the power of the evil **** to block the innate abilities of other players. Talent, forcing them to be cannon fodder.

   What's amazing is that none of the controlled people came forward to expose Ye Xiao's behavior afterwards.

   This made him guess that Ye Xiao's method should not only be as simple as banning talent, but also have other evil effects - such as mind control, or mind suggestion, etc.

  If this is the case, then Ye Xiao is quite dangerous.

  Control many small and medium-sized teams quietly, and even control some other teams and even core figures in the legion, at certain critical times.

  Li Qing immediately thought that if some players in Brilliant and Aquarius were controlled in this way, it would not be impossible for them to make a sudden move when the two teams were besieging the Jialan Star Fort, resulting in a misfire.

  He opened the regional channel. Although it has been more than two months, many people are still talking about it.

  Li Qing silently watched some players chatting in the regional channel. To them, this was just a topic of chatting after dinner, and they had no position tendency.

But from their words, it can be seen that they are not optimistic about the Jialan team. Whether they gave up the outer territory and retreated to the Jialan Star Fort, or lost to the two major teams of Brilliant and Aquarius, the headquarters were captured, which greatly reduced the Jialan team. blue prestige.

  Ordinary players don’t care if it’s a strategy or a strategy, they only look at the process and the result.

   Jialan's process and result were so miserable this time, which caused Jialan's prestige among ordinary players to almost fall to the bottom.

   "Ding Dong!"

   Received Ding Youran's message again, and was pulled into a group chat, where more than a hundred people were chatting.

   "Here are the team members who did not disappear with the headquarters."

   "So little? Everything else is missing?"

  Li Qing remembered that there were nearly a thousand ordinary and elite members of the team, as well as some affiliated members.

   Ding Youran shook his head and said:

"There are not many people who are really missing, but now the team headquarters has been destroyed, the star castle has been plundered, there is no one to host for two months, people's hearts are scattered, and other teams have made troubles, dragging people everywhere, and most of the members can't help but leave the team. Leave, there are only so few people left now."

   "The tree fell and the monkeys scattered, it's normal!"

  Li Qing let out a sigh of relief, and said in the channel:

   "Brothers, I am Li Qing, the deputy head, and I am back!"

  The channel was silent, and a few seconds later, a man named Wang He asked:

   "Deputy leader Li came back just in time, you should know the current situation of the team, what do you want to do next?"

  As soon as the voice fell, someone said again immediately:

"The current situation of the Jialan team has reached the most dangerous moment. We also see that there is still a glimmer of hope in the performance of the deputy head in the previous military operations. When you come back to take charge of the situation, I hope you can find the team as soon as possible. Commander, regain the team territory, take revenge on the Brilliant and Aquarius teams, and re-enhance the team's reputation in the outpost."

   This sentence basically represents the aspirations of everyone, and no one will speak next, waiting quietly for his response.

  Li Qing knew very well that this was the last chance for the Jialan team, and if what he did next did not satisfy them, Jialan would be gone.

  However, most of the people who can stay are those with a long-term vision, and have their own opinions and certain abilities. They can be regarded as elites.

  He pondered for a while, and said:

"It's a great honor for everyone to trust me, Li Qing. What you think is what I think. You can rest assured that I don't want the team to fall apart even more than you. After all, I am the second largest shareholder of Jialan, and I have put more effort into it than anyone else. , will definitely go all out.”

   "Just now, this brother made four requests. They are to retrieve the leader and the others, regain the team's territory, and retaliate against the Brilliant and Aquarius teams, and re-enhance the team's reputation in the outpost."

"The food needs to be eaten bite by bite, and the road has to be walked step by step. We have to follow these four points step by step. The first step is to find the team leader and the others. I have already got some clues about this, and I am preparing for it. It will take half a month soon." , Slower than a month will definitely find them back."

   "As for regaining the team's territory, this requires the team leader and the others, as well as your support."

  Everyone in the channel listened, and most of them agreed in their hearts. Wang He, who had spoken before, said:

   "According to what Deputy Head Li said, the head will be found within one month."

  Li Qing replied immediately:

"no problem."

   Reached an agreement with them, Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief, at least he stabilized them.

   Well, it's not safe, he does have a way to get Yu Yuefei and the others back.

   After exiting the group chat, Li Qing sent Ding Youran a message, asking her to prepare to go to a certain coordinate, and then...

  He sent a message to an undeleted friend.

  In Crimson Star Fort, Gu Shenzhou, who was discussing matters with several other Crimson core members, suddenly stopped, frowned slightly and connected to the communication.

  Li Qing looked at Gu Shenzhou blankly, and said:

   "I'm very surprised. I didn't expect you to be so talented. You dared to attack Jialan Star Castle, and even dared to kill them all."

   After he finished speaking, Gu Shenzhou's face immediately turned down, as ugly as his face could be, and he said loudly with a little gaffe:

   "This has nothing to do with me, I am not involved in Crimson."

  Li Qing sneered:

   "You said that if you didn't participate, you didn't participate. Do you believe it? Do others believe it? When you suppressed us, Jialan, all five of your teams participated. Now that something happened, you said that you didn't participate. Who would believe it?"
