Chapter 157: Gathering The Fleet (1)


    "The small boat carries big roots, that''s why I like this boat, haha!" Tang Xiao looked at therge sma cannon barrel more than 20 meters long, and felt itchy in his heart.


    Giant Ship Cannon is every man''s romance. We can''t build a giant ship now, so a cannon is fine!


    "This ship was originally called a Pulsar Gunship in the "Hiigaran" database, but ording to the grading method of our Fourth Civilization Navy, the 42-meter Pulsar-ss Light Frigate in the field belongs to the ss of Light Frigates, so it was renamed Pulsar-ss Light Frigate." Chi Jianjun said.


    "Oh! That''s great, is there a sea trial?" Tang Xiao was eager to try.


    "The trial voyage has just ended, and a thorough inspection is still needed." Chi Jianjun directly rejected Tang Xiao, "It should take about a month before this kind of Frigate enters mass production. The main reason is that we need it. Short-wave ion guns are used to umte technology, so as toplete the construction ofrger naval guns."


    "Okay, okay, you have the final say." Tang Xiao was a little frustrated, but still nodded, "Have you achieved anything else in the past two months?"


    "Yes, Antimatter." Professor Chi Jianjun was looking at the data just now and adjusted his sses indifferently.


    Tang Xiao''s eyes lit up, "Now we are already researching Antimatter Energy?"


    "Yes, most of the technologies of the Trader Emergency Coalition requires the use of Antimatter Energy. However, their technology for Antimatter Energy is not mature enough andcks continuity. Therefore, the conventional energy of the Spacecraft is still cold nuclear fusion, but at the same time, it will carry Antimatter Energy. In this way, a burst of energy can be activated when needed, which will bring more powerful power." Chi Jianjun nodded and said.


    But then he poured cold water, "But you have to understand Supreme Commander, our current main energy supply is still ordinary Nuclear Fusion Reactors. Cold Nuclear Fusion technology is still being tested, and it will take at least a year to fully Master Cold Nuclear Fusion technology. Antimatter Energy needs at least 5 years from research to application. This is a long-term project that requires a stable team andrge-scale experimental facilities."


    "Is it so long?" Tang Xiao frowned, and he began to calcte the rtionship between the time of this technology from research to application, the time when it was on the battlefield and the time when the war broke out.


    "Supreme Commander, you need to get rid of a misunderstanding of thinking. That is, scientific research is never aplished overnight, and it is a long-term project. Do you know how long it took humans to go from controlled nuclear fission to controlled nuclear fusion? 70 years. And how long did it take for Fighter Jets to go from the 5th generation to the 6th generation? 20 years. Especially the research of basic theoretical technology such as energy technology requires the efforts of even several generations."


    Tang Xiao nodded and went straight to the Pulsar-ss Light Frigate, stroked the huge hull, felt the cold touch, and then said: "We think about things from different angles, Mr. Chi from the moment this universe wakes up, we are doomed not to take the usual path. The existence of the huge technological library is the step-by-stepdder that carries us directly to the top."


    He turned his head sharply, staring at Chi Jianjun, staring the little old man back a step, and then said: "And our real problem may not appear until we have reached the top."


    Chi Jianjun nodded heavily, sighed and said quietly: "But the experimental equipment, venue and personnel, don''t try to fool me."


    "This, let Clement worry about it, haha." Tang Xiao smiled awkwardly.


    "If the universal tool can be used on arge scale, it can speed up our scientific research and construction." Chi Jianjun added.


    ...


    On the second day, the small fleet led by Ni Yongxiao returned to the Endor System, and soon, the ck ship led by Canidi also returned.


    Almost all the spaceships of the Fourth Civilization gathered here.


    After sending Ni Yongxiao and Kanidi to Dawn Star for a day off, Tang Xiao began to discuss the specificbat n for the Battle of Mstare with the Supreme Combat Command.


    Qi Jian directly opened a huge holographic projection in the center of the conference room, with dozens ofrge and small spaceships arranged on it, which looked quite spectacr.


    "Supreme Commander, all of our avable spaceships are here now." Qi Jian said, "One Hammerhead-ss Cruiser, Iron Tooth, which is 315 meters long, and six Assault-ss Light Destroyer, which are 108.7 meters long, are 78 meters long. There are 5 Cobalt-ss Light Frigates and 60 31.4-meter-long Gunship-ss Light Frigates. In addition, there are 20 44-meter-long APOD-33 Dropships."


    "Five of the Cobalt-ss Light Frigate are actually built, so fast? I remember that the production n I approved was 20 ships, but that was a half-year production n, right?" Tang Xiao pointed to the hook-shaped frigate and said.


    Cobalt-ss Light Frigate, the technology of the Trader Emergency Coalition in "Sins of a Sr Empire", is the most basic Frigate in the game. It looked very small in the game, but I didn''t expect it to be 78 meters long when it was actually made! Basically, another 2 meters is enough to be at the level of a Light Destroyer!


    Moreover, the crew of the Cobalt-ss Light Frigate is 75 people. Compared with the spaceships in the "Homeworld" technology tree, the number of crew members is quiterge. But in fact, it does not mean that fewer people are better. After sufficient training, the shipboard crew of the Cobalt-ss Light Frigate can respond to various emergencies much better than the "Homeworld" series of spaceships with only a small number of crew members.


    The Cobalt-ss Light Frigate is only equipped with two Laser Cannons, and the firepower can only be said to be average. However, this kind of Frigate has strong protection capabilities and is also very flexible. It is a very good Battleship for linebat.


    What is linebat? The spaceships on both sides stood in line to draw each other. In the vernacr, it was miserable earwax. This was linebat. Most fleet battles are currently in this mode unless you have a very powerful Battleship that can take the lead and directly conduct a central breakthrough.


    However, Tang Xiao was called away by Darth gueis just after the production of this Frigate began, and it was already two monthster that he came back. Unexpectedly, 5 ships were produced in just two months! This speed caught him by surprise.


    "After analysis, we believe that the Cobalt-ss Light Frigate is the most suitable Frigate now. So we vacated all the Frigate docks and built them at the same time. These five ships were justpleted and joined our battle immediately." Qi Jian replied.
