Chapter 188: Territory, vassals, secret allegiance information
"Okay, now we have an explanation about the situation of that strange star gate."
Mid-December.
After further research by Daxia's scientific researchers, they had the answer to why the star gate could not be opened.
Tina switched the image of the star gate to the device and said with a slightly strange expression: "After our investigation, this star gate seems to be built using a special nanomaterial."
"The reason why it cannot be opened is because there is a special barrier on the outside. That barrier prevents us from physically activating the entire star gate."
Chu Hua, who was sitting on the chair, frowned and said, "Can't that barrier be destroyed?"
Tina shook her head, "According to our understanding of higher energy, it shouldn't be possible."
"In other words, we can only watch this star gate?"
"To a certain extent, that's true..."
"However!" Tina changed the topic, "Its existence can make our star gate construction less detours. After all, even if we have detailed construction technology, we still have to carry out multiple experiments."
In this regard, Chu Hua could only sigh, "Well, that can be considered a kind of gain..."
Since I have no clue about the strange star gate, I can only let it go for the time being.
Not long after Tina exited the communication, Cortana entered the command room.
Every once in a while, the situation of each administrative region and vassal empire must be reported.
"Coming?" Chu Hua smiled. Since the end of the battle last month, Daxia's overall recovery has been going very smoothly.
Cortana, who was wearing simple clothes, nodded and stood in front of Chu Hua's desk.
She and her team had just returned from Honghua recently, and this time they came to report on the situation there.
"As for the issuance and operation of various policies in the Honghua Empire, we have fulfilled our mission and have basically handled it properly."
Since Cortana became the Star Governor, she has almost never let Chu Hua down, and she also smiled with relief.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
"No, this is what I should do."
Cortana smiled. Since she had gained trust, she naturally could not disappoint His Majesty.
Furthermore, as a Daxia person, of course I hope that the Daxia Empire will grow stronger.
"Next, let me add some details about Honghua's situation..."
Cortana opened the tablet she was holding, and the dense data on it appeared neatly on the screen.
"In terms of military strength, the fleet originally stationed in Fuhua Administrative Region has set off for the Honghua Research Area."
"Fortunately, their territory is not that big, and there are not many key star systems to and from. The more than 100 warships we dispatched are enough to meet the defense needs. If the war situation develops, there will be no problem in holding on until reinforcements arrive..."
"As for the technology of their new ships, our scientific researchers have already settled in. I believe we will be able to obtain the corresponding scientific and technological data soon..."
"Correspondingly, the technical optimization of our production resources is also in sync with the other party. It is expected that their resource income will increase a lot in the future..."
...
Hong Hua's situation was reported one by one by Cortana. Chu Hua listened silently and ended with questions from time to time.
In general, the Honghua Empire does not have many things to worry about, only scientific research matters are more important.
Next, Cortana began to report information on the territory and the vassal empires.
"Thanks to the technological development of planetary shields and alien soil fertilization, our rare crystal cultivation project has been able to expand."
"It is expected that fifteen desolate planets will be developed within three months as rare crystal cultivation bases. Each base can produce about 5 points of rare crystals every day."
"In terms of population, perhaps because of the increased application of new robots, the fertility rate has dropped a bit compared to before. We still don't know what impact technological innovation will have."
"In terms of trade, the Chamber of Commerce founded by Mikazuki has been developing well recently. Trade orders have entered a period of rapid growth. At the same time, business related to the Galaxy market has also been carried out. I think our industrial line needs to be prepared."
Chu Hua looked at the trade-related data and pondered for a while.
Now it seems that even with the Cyberlux Arsenal, the production capacity is still somewhat insufficient.
"It seems that we have to start the restoration project of the arsenal."
After secretly speaking, Chu Hua continued to listen to Cortana's report.
The rest of the information is basically in an upward state.
Needless to say, Lanxi was already prosperous, but now it is even better.
Fuhua Administrative District has successfully completed the latest industrial upgrade, and the Shengni Empire in the lower right corner carries some low-end industries.
According to data, with the help of Daxia, the current living standards of residents in Fuhua Administrative District have basically reached 60% of those in the core area of Daxia.
It was once so enviable that many members of the Dawn Alliance often talked about merging into the Great Xia Empire.
It gave Chu Hua a headache occasionally.
Daxia is not a nanny empire. If it doesn’t have corresponding value, don’t even think about feeding it.
In the end, Chu Hua rejected their vassal application for strategic purposes.
"Next, let me tell you about the Saint Ni Empire and the forces that are secretly loyal..."
Cortana then talked about the situation of forces below the Bactrian Territory.
After becoming a vassal, the Shengni Empire received a large amount of resource assistance from Daxia.
It was interrupted for a period of time due to the defense war of the Honghua Empire, but they also took this opportunity to complete the preliminary upgrade of the industry.
And the technology level was upgraded to 5.0.
This is the tragedy of a small country. Daxia is already at 7.0, but they have just reached 5.0.
However, although it is only 5.0, its combat ability is still good.
After all, regarding the research and development of battleship technology, various forces can still successfully achieve it.
What is lacking are actually the resources needed for construction.
At this time, Chu Hua's plan for the Shengni Empire was officially launched.
Unless there are special circumstances, Daxia will not take the initiative to trigger a war. This is the strategic direction determined by Chu Hua.
But for the Saint Ni Empire, there is no such restriction at all.
Daxia will serve as their backup.
And they will become the sharp blades of Daxia, sweeping everything around.
The first goal is to occupy one hundred galaxies!
When the time is right, and then merge it into Daxia, the strategic goal of gaining territory without declaring war will be achieved.
As for whether he would be backlashed by the Sheng Ni Empire, Chu Hua was not too worried.
When the lifeline of resources is in the hands of Daxia, the Shengni Empire has no threat.
Furthermore, in addition to the Holy Ni Empire, there are several other empires that are secretly loyal to it.
They are all taking actions with the goal of destroying the Manford Business Alliance.
From Cortana's report, I learned that they are operating pretty well.
By next year, they will be preparing to attack the source of alien natural gas in the Mannford Business Alliance.
"Huh...that's basically the latest information."
Cortana breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the tea poured by Chu Hua and took a sip.
Halfway through the report, the two sat on the sofa to start the second half of the work.
Chu Hua gave her another glass and nodded appreciatively again, "That's enough. I'll just look over the remaining details."
"Okay~"
Cortana relaxed and leaned back on the sofa. The soft leather was intoxicating. "Speaking of which, the New Year is coming soon. What are your plans?"
Chu Hua paused while holding the teacup, "Oh, is it New Year again?"
The passage of time is getting weaker and weaker in his perception. He didn't expect that another year has passed so quickly.
A year now seems like a month to him.
"Celebrating the Chinese New Year...there doesn't seem to be any good place to go."
Cortana blinked and chuckled: "In that case, let's have a grand ceremony. Both the people and the elite have done a lot of great things this year. I think it's time for a ceremony.
"
"..." Chu Hua was silent for a moment, this must be an extremely troublesome matter.
But thinking about it carefully, Cortana is right.
"That's okay, you can make arrangements."
"We have made arrangements early, and we have decided to stay in the Huadu Colony. This will also give some encouragement to the pioneers of the Eighth Sector..."
