Chapter 755 The Dyed Songstress (Thanks to the leader of Wubai Zhiyin!)

The war is imminent, and the atmosphere in the star regions of the Western Star Region has become tense. When the central government of the Federation issued a notice, the Western Star Region entered a state of preparation for war, and many areas entered a state of militarized management, especially the key industrial areas.

Compared with the crude military-industrial system eighteen years ago, the Western Star Region can now independently research and produce mechas, fighters, and various small warships. As for large warships, especially battleships, the core ships of decisive battles, the technology is not yet mature, and can only produce "Brass Dragon" class battleships according to the original blueprint. Although this type of seventh-generation battleship was excellent in the past, it has gradually fallen behind in the current situation.

"When will the expert group from the Southern Star Region arrive?" In the small auditorium of the Sun Palace, Arosa asked the maid beside her.

"Your Highness, they have already set off, and we will probably see them the day after tomorrow." The maid in a white-bottomed gold-embroidered uniform replied. She probably has the strength of Light Feather Sequence 7 and is a capable assistant left by Blanche to Arosa.

Hearing this, Arosa breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the bright sky outside the window. Seeing her like this, the maid showed a loving expression.

"Your Highness has been very busy these days. Why don't you take a walk in the courtyard to relax?"

"Well." Arosa thought for a moment, lifted her skirt and stood up, her steps slightly brisk.

Despite being surrounded by many halos and titles, Arosa is only 18 years old after all. In the Federation, many people of this age are still students, with childishness and innocence that have not yet dissipated.

Walking on the grass in the courtyard, Arosa occasionally bent down and touched the tender grass leaves and flower stems, and her eyes jumped on some small insects from time to time.

Seeing her curious look, the maid suddenly realized that since Arosa entered the Sun Palace to receive the teachings of the singer, she had not been in contact with the natural environment for a long time.

The mission made this child bear a heavy burden too early, she sighed in her heart.

Then she walked forward and introduced the names and habits of these insects to Arosa, satisfying the curiosity in the eyes of the girl.

…

Time flies. Two days later, the southern expert group arrived in the western star region and formally met with Arosa and other senior officials of the western star region.

“We invited you here this time to ask for your assistance in the design of our new warships and the layout of the production line.” Compared with the weak foundation of the western star region, the southern star region has many years of experience in the production of large warships. Many star regions there were also logistics production bases in the civil war four hundred years ago, and they have accumulated rich historical experience.

“Since we are here, we must do our best to assist.” The visiting representative nodded solemnly.

In the next few days, the members of the expert group were dispersed and taken to different star region industrial bases to inspect and record the local production conditions.

Ten days later, the members who had completed the inspection reunited, summarized the situation in each region, and began to design future project plans for the western star region.

"Time is tight. If we adopt the design of a new battleship, it will not be completed in a short time with the current industrial system and foundation of the Western Star Region."

"The only feasible plan now is to upgrade some accessories on the 'Brass Dragon' class battleship to improve combat effectiveness without excessively improving production conditions."

"In terms of firepower, we have advanced experience and exciting crystal materials in the field of axis main guns, which can provide them with assistance." "

Considering the Red Lotus weapon system used by the current main 'Red Angel' class battleships of the Fifth Fleet, we need to install high-temperature resistant armor in a targeted manner. In this regard, we happen to have the 'Fiery Phoenix Wing' technology from the Eastern Star Region, which can provide help."

After the improved design that was almost a race against time, a more mature design plan was submitted. Considering the characteristics of high temperature resistance and improved firepower, it was named the 'Pyroxene Dragon' class battleship.

A month later, the first prototype of the 'Pyroxene Dragon' battleship was completed with the full efforts of all parties.

…

On the gray-yellow ground, the steaming gates slowly opened. Looking down from the sky, these square gates were like dots arranged in two dotted lines on the gray ground. Then the hidden dome panels in the two dotted lines slowly closed to both sides, gradually revealing the huge monster lying underground.

The ship was about ten kilometers long, like a prehistoric beast slowly awakening. The fixed mechanical arms on it retreated one after another, as if the chains that bound the beast were untied, and then the surging air flow overflowed from the ground, bringing up billowing smoke covering the sky.

After a few minutes, the battleship slowly rose into the air, and only then did the observers in the distance carefully observe its appearance.

If you want to use a metaphor to help understand, the outline of this battleship is like a lot of rectangular blocks spliced ​​together, without much beauty, and the various lines are stiff, like unpolished gemstone ore.

"The outermost armor is translucent, filamentary crystal-like, similar to high-purity bronze pyroxene. There is a hexagonal main axis gun in the middle of the hull, and there are 12 secondary guns, 4 large and 8 small, on both sides of the main body of the battleship, which can be used to deal with close-range cruisers and destroyers. In addition, there are 368 close-in defense guns to deal with approaching fighters and mechas."

"In addition to the obvious firepower, the battleship can also carry 60 mechas or high-speed fighters to deal with various war needs."

"Its excellent armor and firepower can ensure that they can effectively fight against the 'Red Angel' class battleships in combat, achieving an exchange ratio of 3:2."

"If there is a disadvantage, it is that its power lags far behind the new battleships of the eighth generation, and it cannot transfer and advance at high speed."

"But this is impossible. If the power system is to be changed and the technology of the 'Son of the Star' Alliance is adopted, the entire battleship must be completely transformed. The various complex accessories and materials required for the new power navigation system are also extremely difficult to produce in the Western Star Region." The technical bureaucrat shook his head and explained regretfully.

"This battleship prototype was completed with the assistance of hundreds of thousands of workers and thousands of companies. In the future, when production is expanded, the normal production of a single ship will definitely not be so fast."

"The current plan is to first modify the old 'Brass Dragon' class battleships and upgrade them to 'Pyroxenon' class battleships, and then consider full-scale production."

"It is estimated that within half a year, if everything goes well, we can modify 600 'Brass Dragon' class battleships, and then the efficiency can be doubled when the technology and personnel are proficient."

"...This is the most ideal result." At the end of the speech, the technical representative closed the record board in his hand.

Many high-level officials in the Western Star Region present were not satisfied with this result, because the speed was still too slow, and the mobility of the 'Pyroxenon' battleship was too poor, which would be particularly passive in battle.

"If we can't catch up with the enemy, the situation will be very bad." Some generals explained with concern.

"That can't be helped. The technical barriers of the Star Son Alliance are not so easy to break through."

"I can't see the hope of winning..."

After the initial enthusiasm, facing the objective and real data deduction, many people became calm and pessimistic.

Faced with this situation, the expert group in the southern star region also knew that persuasion and comfort were of little use. They just recorded this scene silently and prepared to report it to the 'Emerald Dragon' later.

——————

May, Southern Star Region, Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region, Two-Axis Crystal Space Station.

Tilan had just finished visiting this Star Son Space Station when she received the news that the expert group was returning.

"Your Highness Heshia, they have returned, but considering the later support, one-third of the members are still in the western star region."

"I know, take me to see them." Tilan sat in front of the mirror, and several blood maids beside her helped her tidy up her dress and hair, and then surrounded the girl and walked out of the room.

Three minutes later, in the reception room of the side hall, the girl met the expert group members who had just disembarked from the starship.

"How was the support this time?" She had already received the report, but she still wanted to ask everyone's true feelings.

A technical officer with slightly gray hair stepped forward and spoke.

"We have done our best to assist the military industry production in the Western Star Region."

"But based on our impression before we left, they really can't see the hope of winning." Another technical officer also stepped forward to answer.

"The objective basic conditions are there, and what we can do is ultimately limited. Whether it is manpower, financial resources, or various resources and industrial system strength, the Central Star Region is far superior to the Western Star Region."

...

After listening to the answers of everyone present, Tilan nodded, closed her eyes slightly, and then opened them.

"In other words, unless a miracle happens or outside intervention occurs, the Western Star Region will definitely lose in future wars, right?"

"That's right." Many people nodded.

The girl did not answer this, but walked to the side silently, as if thinking and hesitating about something.

In this way, the hall was quiet for several minutes. Seeing Tilan walking in thought, everyone present did not dare to step forward to disturb her.

Finally, the black leather shoes stopped, and the girl turned around and looked at everyone.

"If we add the full support of our southern star region, can we fight against the military power of the central federation?"

"This..." Many people at the scene were only experts in military research and development, not high-ranking officers and generals, so it was difficult to judge.

"It's okay, you go down and rest first." Tilan didn't make it difficult for them.

In fact, this decision just now was not her impulse, but the result of careful consideration.

It is better to try to develop for a while, and it is also good to wait for the problems in the central federation to erupt, but the opportunity is not always there. Once the western star region falls, then only the southern star region and the half-crippled eastern star region can be relied on to fight against most of the federation, and the situation will be extremely difficult.

Emuralin was also a colorful singer at that time. With her support, the civil war was also dangerous and difficult. In the early stage, in order to stand firm under a huge disadvantage, it was inevitable that the tragedy of that year was caused. This is also the main reason why Emuralin voluntarily accepted the trial later.

If she does not support the western star region now and does not take action when the other party is in the most critical situation, even if she recovers the entire federation in the future, she will face many appeasement problems.

I can't escape... the girl thought to herself.

Pulin's fiery personality disrupted the rhythm of many people and gradually forced her into a corner where she had to make a choice.

The conditions were not yet ripe, but it seemed that she could not care about it. She could only fight and improve at the same time.

In the afternoon, Tilan found the chief expert group in the 'Emerald Dragon' and held a meeting for about 4 hours to understand the current situation of each star field in the southern star region and the gap with the central star field.

These geniuses were not surprised by such a request. Although they did not know what Tilan really thought, they could guess something based on the increasingly tense situation in the federation.

No matter how unwilling they were, the word 'federal civil war' was like dark clouds on the distant mountains, slowly pressing down, bringing the bleak cold wind and chill that swept across the earth.

"Understood. We will speed up the research and development as soon as possible, finalize the blueprint of the new warships before August, and complete the construction of the first batch of production lines before the end of the year."

After making arrangements, Tilan met with representatives of the generals of the various patrol fleets in the southern star region. Most of them stood on the side of the 'Emerald Dragon' and said that they would go out to fight when the singer needed them.

"However, when I think about fighting against the six main fleets of the Federation Center, I feel a kind of suffocating pressure." Dolores said this while accompanying Tilan.

"Yes, the six main fleets are so powerful. Even if one fleet is lost now, the remaining five fleets are enough to suppress the entire galaxy and quell any dark sun that emerges." The girl sighed softly.

"When Her Highness Aimulalin won over three of them, she had the confidence to reform the Federation. In the past, it was not the Fourth Fleet that was stationed in the Twin Trees Star Region, but the First Fleet and the Second Fleet, the two twin fleets."

"The only thing we can pray for is that the Federation Central can only command the Fifth Fleet and cannot easily mobilize the other fleets." Dolores said with a little worry.

Seeing this friend so anxious, Tilan walked over and hugged her to comfort her.

"It's okay, I'm here." Her fingers passed through Dolores' hair and gently pressed on her back. A little fragrance of flowers and plants came from her hair.

Speaking of which, this was the first time she saw Dolores show such an expression. In her memory, this lady has always been generous and confident, and sometimes she was taken care of by the other party.

But after thinking about it, it's not Dolores' fault. Now the influence of the 'Fire Lotus-Brilliant Star' faction has swept the entire Federation, almost to every place. Anyone who wants to confront this huge giant will feel fear and terror.

In the southern star region, some people in the 'Emerald Dragon' may also think so. Tilan thought of another point while comforting Dolores.

If the western star region also fell this time, it would be difficult for her to lead the southern star region to fight in the future. People would be afraid, and the number of individuals who escaped and wavered would increase significantly.

Originally, she wanted to wait a few more years, because she knew that with the means of Pulin's fiery and ruthless methods, although the central star region could be extremely gorgeous and prosperous in a short period of time, it would also bring various sequelae.

Now it seems that Pulin is not going to give her time. It is just unknown where Pulin will lead human civilization after the unified federation.

She always feels that if the 'Fire Lotus-Brilliant Star' faction continues to develop in its style, it will be an extremely dangerous future. The whole country will either go to heaven and use the constantly developing new technologies to smooth out social contradictions, or it will burst apart in the most enthusiastic state and explode to pieces.

Well, this is in line with Pulin's personality, passionate, straightforward and daring. If she and I were to wait patiently like this, I'm afraid it would be particularly uncomfortable.

Different singers will lead civilizations in different directions and be stained with their colors.

Among them, the most powerful singers, the brilliant colors they bring will also be remembered in history and be called "color-level" singers.

Thank you very much to the leader of Wubai Zhiyin. Thanks (ω)
