Chapter 1489 The Way of Keeping Secrets

μ 610 Pisces.

The human expeditionary fleet is coasting in the outer layer of the Kuiper belt, and the fleet is resting.

During the firefight with Palesi's Seventh Royal Fleet, although the expeditionary fleet didn't suffer much battle damage, the fierce firefight still pierced the energy shields of several warships, leaving holes in the hulls that were melted by gunfire.

At the time of the final evacuation, the two cruisers left behind were the standard cruisers delivered by the Mechanical Empire not long ago.

Since there is no time to send it to the V232 dark matter laboratory of the Yuga dwarf galaxy for modification, the two cruisers are very ordinary cruisers.

In fact, leaving two cruisers is a tail-docking plan that was prepared from the beginning.

The purpose is to use two standard cruisers to confuse the sight of the Palesian civilization and delay the exposure time of the dark matter reactor as much as possible.

"As we had guessed, Zandar Ikocchi mobilized the technological temple of Palesi's home planet to test the two cruisers." Zhao Anya immediately told The comrades in the military scientific research class had a somewhat complacent tone.

The Carbon-based Alliance and the Palesian civilization have infiltrated each other, and high-level secrets cannot be detected, but this kind of mobilization of the scientific team of the Technological Temple is too much movement.

So the Carbon-Based Alliance got the relevant information, and after transferring it from the Mechanical Empire, it was passed to the Human Fleet.

The companions in the military scientific research class don't need to ask about the test results at all, because no one in this world knows what the results are better than them.

"This is good news. It means that our tail-docking plan was successful, and successfully confused the group of energy bugs in Palesi." Eve has become accustomed to calling Palasai warriors by energy bugs.

"No, this is actually bad news." Fang Yuan shook his head.

"Why? This is obviously good news. We tricked the Palesi bugs once." Eve blinked her eyes, very puzzled.

Fang Yuan didn't explain.

Han Youwei sighed and said: "Zandar Ikechi's movement was so great that he mobilized the technology temple of Palesi's home planet, which shows that he really discovered the secret of our battleship, but there is no evidence. This means that the reaction of dark matter The secret of the furnace may not be kept for long. So, this is indeed bad news."

Although prior to this, everyone had speculated that the secret of the dark matter reactor had been discovered by Zandar Ikochi, but this was just speculation.

Now,

Palesi mobilized the power of the Temple of Technology to detect the wreckage of the battleship, which proved that Zandar Ikochi not only noticed the extraordinary data of the human battleship, but also suspected that it was related to technology.

"It seems that the expansion of the large fleet is urgent. It seems that we have to communicate with the Supreme Council of the Earth once."

The last time he communicated with Admiral Rhodes, Fang Yuan had requested a large-scale purchase of Carbon-based Alliance warships.

It was also said by Admiral Rhodes to be militaristic.

However, for a stellar civilization, in the face of a powerful advanced civilization, only by resorting to military force can it have a chance of survival.

After walking into the encrypted communication conference room.

Fang Yuan established communication with Admiral Rhodes and Professor Yang Yuping.

"The situation is more serious than expected. The Palesi civilization used the Temple of Science and Technology to detect the warships we left behind. Zandar Ikochi should have guessed the existence of the dark matter reactor, but evidence needs to be found to allow Palese's rule to trust his judgement."

After Fang Yuan made the situation clear, he directly said his plan:

"Now the expedition fleet needs to be expanded into a large fleet, at least 72 ships in size, so there is a relatively large gap in warships, and at least 30 warships that have been modified by dark matter reactors are needed.

"So far, there is no information that the Palesian civilization has sent a large fleet to the Pisces dwarf galaxy.

"That is to say, the only person who suspects that we have a dark matter reactor is Zandar Ikochi, and the Palesi royal family does not believe it.

"We still have time, but it has to be fast.

"Since the secret has not been fully exposed, if you want to keep the secret, you must first kill the person who knows the secret!"

This is the simplest, most direct and most effective tactic.

Yang Yuping took the topic and said: "It has been 20 years since the Tinder program started and the first base spacecraft left the earth.

"I need to tell you one thing. The space dock of the first Tinder planet has been completed, and the technological level can already build space warships."

When the Fire Seed Project was launched, in order to keep a few more spare tires, there were not one, but six base spacecraft that left the earth.

In the next few years, more than a dozen ships took off one after another.

Therefore, now that Yang Yuping is solely responsible for the Tinder planet, it has entered its 20th year, and the development of the planet has reached a certain level.

The construction of the space port and space dock has been completed.

"What level is the battleship built?" Fang Yuan asked quickly.

"Stellar civilization-level battleship." Yang Yuping replied.

"How big is the gap?" Fang Yuan was already mentally prepared.

With the current level of human science and technology, it is impossible to build warships at the same level as advanced civilizations.

"The combat power data is 10.23% of the Mechanical Empire battleship." Yang Yuping gave the answer directly with the data.

10.23%, which means that the combat power of the warships built by humans is only one-tenth of that of advanced civilization warships.

Just looking at the data of one-tenth, the gap is huge.

However, human civilization is just a stellar civilization, and reaching this level is already the result of leapfrog development.

"This combat power is not good, the gap is too big." Fang Yuan shook his head.

"I have another plan. I can use the decommissioned warships of the Carbon-Based Alliance to remodel and update the engine system and energy system. In this way, with the support of the dark matter reactor, the combat power data can be overtaken." Yang Yuping proposed another plan .

When Fang Yuan heard this plan, he immediately became interested.

In fact, the warship technology of Palesi and the Carbon-based Alliance has reached a stagnation stage.

In the past 20,000 years, the warships of advanced civilizations have not been strengthened much.

The warships that served in the Palesi Galactic Far Star Empire were antiques left over from the first Galactic War 20,000 years ago, and the difference in combat power between the most advanced main battleships was only 30%.

The 30% gap is actually not small, but it is not so big that it cannot be competed.

If you buy a warship retired by the Carbon-based Alliance, you don't need to wait for a long delivery time, you can exchange it directly, and the price is low, and the quantity is full.

"This is a good plan, you can try it." Fang Yuan agreed with this plan.

After the secret conversation between the three of them ended, human civilization began to ask the Carbon-based Alliance to purchase retired warships.

Some of the retired warships of the Carbon-based Alliance will be destroyed, while others will be stored in space.

The sale of decommissioned warships is relatively common in advanced civilizations.

Especially after the main battleship is decommissioned, it will be sold to the interstellar mining company as an escort warship for mining ships and transport ships.

Compared with the main battleships in active service, the price of such warships is much lower, and there is no waiting time, and they can be delivered directly.

Human civilization finally borrowed money from the photosynthetic civilization by mortgaging the expedition fleet, purchased 30 decommissioned warships in good condition, and sent them to the V232 dark matter laboratory in the Sculptor dwarf galaxy for upgrades and transformations.
