Li Xin did not stay in the main brain for too long. After all, he didn't know much about scientific research projects, and there was no need to waste time here.
Li Xin went straight back to the star base, which was several times the size of the star base they were currently uniting.
However, the operating system and various devices are not suitable for human operation.
But Li Xin is not planning to modify the original system for the time being. After all, he does not have enough manpower to be mobilized here to operate this star base.
At present, Li Xin has no plans to make any changes to the defense system, life support system, energy collection system, and mining ship control system of this base.
But the space dock still needs to be transformed.
In this space base, if the standards of human ships are followed, about twenty ships with a capacity of 20 can be built at the same time.
This ship capacity is expressed based on frigates. Building a frigate will occupy one unit of ship capacity in the dock.
Torpedo boats are larger and require a two-ship dock.
Destroyers are even larger, requiring four units of ship capacity.
Even after the current space dock is renovated, it can only build destroyers at most.
A destroyer, the Obedience-class destroyer is more than 800 meters long, and what Li Xin can build is the Contemplative-class destroyer.
The length of this type of destroyer is also 780 meters, and it also requires four units of ship capacity.
Li Xin also has the blueprint for manufacturing a cruiser, which is also the blueprint provided to Li Xin by the Seventh Wave, and the level is: Justice-class cruiser.
This type of cruiser is 2,300 meters long and is completely beyond the capability of being built by the current space dock.
If you want to build a cruiser of this size, you need to at least expand the dock and make it several times larger.
Compared with the cruisers and the frigates that Li Xin has the most of now, if the two sides fight, it will be like a father beating his son.
Reality is not a game. In the game, you can use a large number of frigates to besiege large ships.
But in reality, the combat effectiveness of a large ship is completely incomparable to that of a small ship.
A single shot from a large ship can blow up a small ship. The caliber is larger, the power is stronger, the range is longer, and the speed of the ship may even be faster.
After all, there is no air resistance in space, and the speed of a ship depends entirely on how many power engines it carries.
How could the number of engines on a small ship possibly compare to that on a large ship?
If a cruiser fights a frigate, a cruiser of the same cost can almost beat a frigate of the same cost.
The two are simply not of the same level of combat power.
The range of the frigate's ship weapons is much shorter than that of the cruiser. Even after being hit by several rounds, it may not be able to reach the edge of the cruiser.
And this is just a cruiser. The strength of the battleship is even higher. Li Xin does not even have the blueprint and power to build it now.
Now that they have completely cut off ties with the Seventh Wave and human society, if they want to build battleships, they can only rely on scientific researchers to conduct research by feeling their way forward.
After arriving at the star base, Li Xin began planning the renovation of the space dock.
The first thing is to continue expanding. At present, there is no shortage of metal resources in this star base, and there is no telling how much preliminarily smelted metal is surrounding it in space.
A large-scale nano-alloy foundry was also started to be built in the star base to speed up the production of alloy units.
These alloys will be used for subsequent ship construction.
In the Tianjin four star systems, there are also transport ships that continuously transport suitable skilled workers here.
Together with the Walker Guardian robots, they will be busy in this star base, transforming the docks and building ships.
This time, Li Xin plans to build some destroyers here.
Now he only has three destroyers sent by the Seventh Wave. This is enough for ordinary battles, but if he encounters some stronger enemy fleets, he will not be able to defeat them.
Now that the Walker Guardian's space dock has been modified, it can build at least five Eye-catching-class destroyers at the same time.
Moreover, Li Xin also recruited more Walker Guardians to come to the star base to continue expanding the space dock. Of course, these expansions were all built according to human standards.
After all, the Walker Guardians were robots, and their primary mission was to protect the Walker people and make them live a happy and fulfilling life.
Therefore, these robots have little need for expansion and naturally do not require a large dock.
But the rulers now are humans, one of the most expansionist races.
The needs of both sides were different. As time went on, a year later, there were at least millions of Walker Guardians and hundreds of thousands of clones busy in this star base.
If the star base could accommodate more people, Li Xin would continue to stuff robots and clones into it.
As this star base continues to expand, its size is also slowly increasing, whether it is a star port, a space dock, a star power station, a star research station, or the star base itself.
Compared to when Li Xin first came here to conquer this galaxy, it has at least doubled in size.
Li Xin's current location is among the five destroyers that have just been built in the dock.
The space dock first underwent several months of renovation, and then entered a six-month period of ship construction.
After the construction of the five destroyers was completed, the shipyard had no intention of stopping and continued to build frigates.
Currently, this shipyard has doubled in size compared to before and can build warships with a capacity of 40 units.
Now half of the shipyards are building destroyers, and five destroyers can be produced every six months.
The other half of the shipyard is building frigates, and twenty frigates can be produced every four months.
In the original Tianjin four-star system, the space dock there is also producing frigates, and can produce sixteen frigates every four months.
This time, Li Xin plans to build frigates to 100 ships first, and then start to build destroyers with all his strength.
As for the larger number, they will come later slowly, because if there are more, Li Xin’s men will not be enough.
After all, a ship cannot be built by simply piling up ordinary clones, it also requires enough psykers.
Whether it is piloting a ship, activating a psychic jump engine, or controlling a void shield or various energy weapons, it is best to be a psychic.
