After being active for many years, Ren Zhong finally "fell".
Of course, this time he fell down on his own initiative.
According to Sun Ai's estimation, to complete the transformation perfectly, Ren Zhong would need to spend forty to sixty years in a state of cryogenic slumber.
Calculating it this way, when he wakes up, his century-old count review period is actually coming to an end.
Ren Zhong actually considered postponing the renovation until the count's review was completed before starting.
But Sun Ai told him that it was not too late.
As he continues to grow older, the telomeres of cells in his body will gradually be consumed.
The longer the telomeres remain, the higher the probability of successful transformation.
There is still a 50% chance of winning, but with each additional day, the chance of winning becomes smaller.
In view of this, Ren Zhong decided to rush forward.
It’s rare to take a chance in life, and once you take the chance, your bicycle will turn into a motorcycle.
Today's Chifeng clan seems calm on the surface, but secretly it seems to be thriving and developing very fast. However, Ren Zhong's understanding of the Machinery Empire and the other three branches is getting deeper and deeper. The more he knows, the more he becomes more and more.
I feel that the gap in strength between the enemy and ourselves is beyond imagination.
Even though the Chifeng tribe is still in the system of the Machinery Empire, in Ren Zhong's subconscious, they always regard the power structures of the four human branches as imaginary enemies. This may be a bit exaggerated, but it is an unchangeable fact.
If they always abide by the laws of the empire and develop step by step, Ren Zhong believes that maybe the Chifeng clan can become a famous family in the mechanical empire, and he himself may also have the opportunity to become a duke.
But that's all.
His plan is far more than that. For him, if he really integrates into the existing pattern of the Gupan Galaxy with peace of mind, but fails to change something from the root and leave something behind, it will be a complete failure. He
This new life has no meaning. All the previous efforts and sacrifices have become useless just like the nameless city on the Source Star.
Therefore, he must give it a try.
Before officially entering deep sleep, Ren Zhong asked Sun Ai to organize a very small-scale high-level meeting.
Those present at the meeting were all his true confidants.
The most important arrangement he made was to ask Zheng Tian to keep the foundation of the expedition team, and his words were quite suggestive.
This means that the time Zheng Tian can sleep in the next few decades will inevitably be greatly reduced.
She might not even be able to wait to meet Chen Hanyu again.
Zheng Tian didn't hesitate and agreed immediately.
After the public meeting ended, Ren Zhong opened point-to-point communication with Zheng Tian.
He thought a lot before getting through, but looking at the slightly haggard Zheng Tian on the other side, Ren Zhong was speechless for a moment. After a long time, he struggled to say, "Thank you for your hard work."
Zheng Tian was free and easy, "I know what you are thinking, Ren Zhong. You feel you owe me, right?"
Ren Zhong hummed, but did not deny it, "That's true. When I brought you out from the Source Star, I actually had the extravagant hope that you would stay with me until the end. The existence of cryo-sleep technology has given me more
Extravagant hopes. But it turned out that I was too greedy. Hua Yuelan, Qian Wangshen, Ding Canghai, Wang Qiao, Zhuo Yihang... Even Ys Locke, who grew up during the voyage, couldn't survive. Although
I always say that everyone died for me, which seems to me to be too conceited, and seems to be belittling everyone's consciousness. But I understand the truth, but I can't help but feel regretful."
Zheng Tian listened to his eloquent talk and smiled: "Actually, you know it in your heart. Many of us actually don't have high ambitions. Our pursuits are just following your footsteps. What should I say?
Enlightenment... Ahem, although you taught us a lot of truths, they are actually a bit unclear. Personally, I don’t have the ability to think about so many great truths, and I can’t think them through, so I
In fact, I have been lazy, just try to make yourself live the way you want to see. Don't be sad, this is all true. I think many other people are actually the same."
"But no matter what, I think it is our greatest luck to know you in this life. So, I promise you that no matter what, I will enter cryo-sleep in time before I die. Waiting for Chen Hanyu, Wen Lei and Yu
Jin and the others come to Chifeng Star and pick me up again. Then I can at least see everyone for the last time. Don't look at Chen Hanyu who always looks like a goddess, but she is not serious in private. In fact, she often teases me.
I won’t grow up, let her see my gray hair when the time comes, I will definitely be older than her, let’s see how she still teases me.”
Zheng Tian spoke very slowly and her tone was very soft, even seeming a little frivolous and proud.
But there is an inexplicable and powerful confidence hidden in these words.
There is only one situation that can give her a perfect end of life. That is if the expeditionary force's journey in the Broken Star Ring goes smoothly, and the expeditionary force can be active until at least forty years later.
While speaking, the star map in front of Zheng Tian also showed the projection of the star area near where the Golden Dog Pirates were stationed.
Ren Zhong seemed to see through the reflection in her eyes a battlefield full of smoke and war.
After a moment, Ren nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for you to return in triumph with your last day of life."
After explaining all the funeral affairs, Ren Zhong went into cryogenic slumber in the underground base of Chifeng City.
From this moment on, Chifeng Star and Yuan Star temporarily lost their backbone.
Three years have gone by in a blink of an eye.
The expeditionary force officially arrived at the outskirts of the Golden Dog station.
Just three years is not enough time for the Nanxiang Earl's Mansion to change its layout in the Broken Star Ring, which has inconvenient transportation. Even Beverly has not yet confirmed that his main battle fleet has been reduced to ashes.
The expeditionary force's information flow shielding technology was still unparalleled in the world. Zheng Tian had no choice but to repeat the same tricks. First, he easily cut off the communication between the Golden Dog station and the outside world, then simultaneously cut off its traffic, and then used ultra-long-range weapons before the opponent's army could complete its assembly.
A round of covering strikes came, causing heavy damage to it.
Subsequently, eight hundred armed warships approached slightly, and then quickly released a large number of improved shuttle ships and short- and medium-range fighters to activate stealth mode, and dispersed and maneuvered to attack them.
Due to the unexpected loss of contact with the main battle fleet, although Beverly did not know what was going on, he still arranged many defensive measures in advance. He arranged layers of defense lines around the station, built a large number of radars and fixed forts, and created a structure in the Broken Star Ring.
There is also a very rare turtle shell array.
These defenses are scattered on many space meteorites.
With the resource support provided by Nanxiang Earl's Mansion, Golden Dog's radar station can even be turned on around the clock, and the scanning and monitoring areas are layered with no blind spots.
Once an enemy is discovered, relying on the convenience provided by the old version of the Empire's regular army command system that Nanxiang Earl's Palace gave away for free, no matter how far away the fort is from the enemy, guided weapons can be fired in advance, which can form hundreds of thousands of instantaneous concentrated fires.
At the same time, these guided weapons also have the function of remote takeover. No matter how the enemy dodges and avoids, as long as there is a radar shining on the target, the control center can guide the missile to turn and maintain lock in real time.
In addition, deep in the Golden Dog station there are dozens of high-power ultra-long-range beam cannons with self-aggregation characteristics, called starlight cannons.
The starlight cannon is actually a naval gun of the Nanxiang Earl's Mansion. In theory, it can penetrate all the force field shields in the Nanxiang star cluster. Even the battleships of the regular army of the empire cannot withstand a single shot. It can be called a contraband massacre.
device.
In order to quickly develop the Golden Dog Pirate Group, Liu An also spent a lot of money.
If facing an ordinary enemy, Beverly's Turtle Shell Formation is indeed comparable to an iron wall, but when facing the Red Front Expeditionary Force, this heavy defense line has become a decoration, comparable to the Maginot Line of Defense faced by the head of state.
It is a contemporary model that is neither popular nor useful.
Faced with the overwhelming information flow interference technology, the fully information-based command system that Golden Dog was proud of collapsed on the spot.
As for the scanning radar, it seems to have no blind spots, but it is useless when faced with stealth small warships with technological differences.
The stealth shuttle ship can easily shuttle between space meteorites, coming and going freely.
The opponent always has to wait until an attack is imminent to react, but it relies too much on information flow technology to even issue a warning.
The Golden Dog's command center could only watch as the fortifications in front disappeared one after another out of thin air.
The expeditionary force used the method of peeling an onion to tear apart the Golden Dog's turtle shell formation layer by layer. They did not encounter any effective resistance until they reached 500 million kilometers away from the planet where the Golden Dog was stationed.
Even from the optical telescope, it can be vaguely seen that the surface of the planet where Golden Dog is stationed has been bombarded by heavy ultra-long-range missiles launched in advance.
But Zheng Tian did not relax her vigilance.
She has studied a lot of Beverly's records and knows that the opponent is not a rookie who will be defeated to the end, and there must be a way to fight for his life.
So, Zheng Tian asked the fleet to release a large decoy target made from the metal resources accumulated when it defeated the Golden Dog main battle fleet.
After these decoy targets, which were originally only the size of small ships, were released, the folding structure unfolded on its own, and its external size continued to expand, quickly transforming into the appearance of an armed warship. It has the same size and length, and it is difficult to distinguish it with the naked eye.
true and false.
The only difference between these decoy targets and real armed warships is the lack of stealth coating.
But this is also Zheng Tian's psychological tactic. Beverly will think that this is because the invading enemy sees that they have a chance to win, so he underestimates the enemy and cancels the invisibility. Of course, if Beverly wants to convince himself, he may also think that the invisibility of the expeditionary force is
The equipment has a cooldown period and is now forced to reveal itself.
After releasing the decoy target, the eight hundred armed warships quietly dispersed.
Among them, one hundred ships led by Vincent Van Hoy took a long way around as a surprise force and went behind the star.
The seven hundred battleships led by Zheng Tian deflected to the right, aiming all vertical launchers on the left side of the ships forward.
The lure target keeps getting closer, and everything seems calm and peaceful.
Suddenly, a powerful radio radar scan locked on eight hundred decoy targets.
At the same time, the starlight cannon hidden under the star where Golden Dog was stationed suddenly appeared, and then opened fire one after another.
Watching the decoy targets being shot down and torn into pieces, Zheng Tian sighed and thought to herself: "It's true. According to intelligence, this kind of large main gun has been deployed in space before. Our long-range missile's self-finding function should be able to target
It was locked in, but now it appears to have come to nothing."
And the radio radar was beyond her expectations.
Obviously, when it was discovered that the information flow equipment was completely ineffective, someone at the Golden Dog station had already begun to urgently develop radio equipment, and it reached actual combat standards in just over ten days.
The opponent's lock on the decoy target was very accurate, and the starlight cannon almost missed its target.
After a round of violent blows, only half of the eight hundred lure targets were left.
Next, a large number of medium-sized warships suddenly appeared from the orbit behind the stationed star, turning into a torrent and swooping in.
Before approaching, these medium-sized warships have already begun to release high-power electromagnetic interference and modified neutrino impacts forward.
These two weapons can theoretically cause serious damage to the expeditionary force's silicon chip brain.
If it was a real armed warship that was hit, I'm afraid it would be in danger now.
Facing the enemy's fire attack, the decoy ship ahead suddenly failed. It first lost its propulsion power, and then the force field shield on the surface was quickly extinguished.
Immediately afterwards, Golden Dog's medium-sized ship launched a round of intensive bombardment with low-power beam cannons.
Originally, these beam cannons were unable to break through the shield, but now they actually landed on the surface of the target ship, causing explosions and sparks flying everywhere.
This wasn't the end yet. What followed immediately after the beam cannon bombardment was the violent impact of these medium-sized ships, which then exploded.
Only then did the expeditionary force intelligence department discover that the opponent's medium-sized ships were actually modified from large ground-deep space missiles, which were originally kamikaze self-destruction equipment.
Finally, when the last round of explosions stopped, the battle was officially over.
The golden dog "wins big".
It's a pity that I will appear on stage after you sing.
The next moment, Zheng Tian's seven hundred armed warships opened their hatch covers at the same time.
The effectiveness of the stealth coating weakened, and the seven hundred battleships were revealed to the enemy's radio scanning radar.
In an instant, as many as a million large and small missiles were launched simultaneously.
After the first round of strikes, the seven hundred warships quickly turned around, but millions of small bouncing warships were launched like missiles.
When the first round of missile strikes had just touched the star ground, the shuttle ships and eye ships that had been lurking nearby gradually lowered their altitude and used small missiles and light energy weapons to cover and strike enemy ground targets.
These ground targets were originally well hidden underground, but they were exposed when Beverly mistook the decoy ship for the real enemy.
Now, everything has become a living target. Millions of missiles are aimed at the enemy's large and medium-sized ground fortifications. The shuttle ships, eye ships and bounce-to-board warships are targeting small and medium-sized ground fortifications.
The entire process of the war was completely under Zheng Tian's control. The crazy bombardment lasted for seventy-two hours.
Finally, Zheng Tian waited for Vincent Van Hoy's battle report.
A special operations team composed of super-level professionals has successfully landed on Vincent's main ship and captured the opponent's command bridge.
Beverly, the famous golden dog king in Broken Star Ring, has been captured alive.
