This is the support given by the military to the "Pirate Plan".
Of course, Liu Tao's pirates alone cannot even meet the minimum manning requirements for these more than 1,300 warships.
Therefore, the military department also mobilized 30,000 federal soldiers.
Of course, I have been away from home for at least fifty years.
The Federation also fully compensated these 30,000 soldiers, allowing them to become the first batch of humans to enjoy the third-level genetic enhancement potion.
In addition to warships and personnel, this pirate plan originally proposed by Jiang Xingchen has become a multi-department cooperation plan.
The Federal Intelligence Department and the Civilization Potential Assessment Department also participated.
Among them, there are 900 people in the Intelligence Department and 2,500 people in the Civilization Potential Assessment Department.
The whole preparation quickly became full.
However, they cannot set off yet.
Because the current limit of the Federation's second-generation hyperspace technology is nearly 10 million light-years, which is still unable to meet the 12.7 million light-year requirements of this mission.
You must know that the space between galaxies and galaxies and between galaxy groups is not the ordinary cosmic space between planets.
It is a space similar to the main spiral arms and secondary spiral arms of the Milky Way, which is the space known as the void star sea in the Federation.
In the void star sea, there are a large number of random space turbulences that cannot be navigated in ordinary ways.
Well, that’s not to say it’s absolutely impossible, it’s just that if you want to sail hundreds of millions of light years without encountering any space turbulence, the probability is almost zero.
Of course, if you have a protagonist template, you can try it.
Therefore, if you want to cross the void star sea and go to other galaxy groups, you can only avoid ordinary navigation and get there in one step.
As long as you stop in the middle and return to normal space.
There is a high probability that the entire fleet will be destroyed due to encountering space turbulence.
Therefore, there are only two options given to the pirate plan.
One is to wait for the third generation of hyperspace technology to see if it can meet the mission requirements.
But after all, the second-generation technology has just begun to be applied, and we don’t know when the third-generation technology will be available.
The other is the interstellar space teleportation ring, which is space teleportation technology.
The advantage of this technology is that the distance is far enough. Even the first-generation space transmission technology that has just been developed can theoretically reach a distance of hundreds of millions of light years.
However, this is just a theory, and reaching theoretical data requires a lot of energy support.
The farther the space transmission distance, the energy consumption increases almost geometrically.
According to calculations by the Central Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Space Science, if you want to use the star ring to complete a distance of 12.7 million light-years, at least 30 zero-point energy modules will be needed in series to support this huge energy consumption.
Of course, 30 zero-point energy modules are not too much for the current federation.
However, for this mission, the current star ring still needs to be adjusted. At the same time, the Energy Research Institute is also cooperating to redesign the energy supply system.
After all, the Federation has never done anything like connecting 30 zero-point energy modules in series.
Tweak, test, test, test again.
Until finally the pirate plan was officially launched.
I'm afraid it will take at least half a year.

After settling Liu Tao's matter.
Jiang Xingchen came to the Mecha Research Institute again.
Speaking of which, ever since the Federation entered the fifth-level civilization, the Mecha Research Institute has been in an embarrassing mess.
What are the advantages of mechas?
Naturally, it has better maneuverability in close air combat than conventional space fighters.
Therefore, even after reaching the fourth level civilization, mechas still have a pivotal position.
But what now?
With frequent attacks from more than ten, or even dozens of light-years away, the mecha's effect is weakened to the limit.
After all, the two sides are more than ten light seconds apart, so even if the mecha attacks...
Just flying in front of the enemy fleet would probably take several hours.
Of course, it’s not like the Mecha Research Institute hasn’t worked hard.
They proposed many plans, such as adding a small jump engine to the mecha, or directly equipping the mecha with space technology weapons and shields...
In short, they tried their best to make the mecha adapt to the new era of interstellar warfare.
But it is a pity that all efforts failed in the end.
It is not impossible to make a small jump engine, but it can only make the most primitive kind.
That is to say, it cannot simulate the gravity field by itself, but can only rely on the planet's gravity field to make the jump.
This makes no sense.
And the weapons and shields of space technology.
Although the idea is good.
But the Institute of Space Science clearly replied that this is impossible.
As far as the current space technology of the Federation is concerned, if you want to assemble a set of space technology weapons, even if they are pushed to the limit, their size will be more than ten times larger than the mecha itself.
Otherwise, how come there are only ten space cutting cannons installed on the Pangu-class battleship?
Although some of them are energy issues, similarly, the space cutting cannon cannot be miniaturized at present, which is also one of the important reasons that restricts the number of installations on Pangu-class battleships.
As a result, new technologies cannot be used, and old technologies cannot adapt to the new era.
Isn't this embarrassing?
Originally, the mecha department, which had an important position in the Academy of Sciences, was now reduced to developing security mechas.
And the group of mecha warriors that Jiang Xingchen originally had under his command were becoming more and more confused at this moment.
For example, Brigadier General Long Yuchao, the former commander of the Mecha Corps of the Federation's First Fleet.
Another example is Colonel Lu Li, the former deputy commander of the mecha corps of the Federation's First Fleet.
There are also Qian Duoduo, Ye Yunzhou, Shen Lang, Leng Lingtian and others.
At this moment, no one knows how to go next.
However, more than a year ago, a newcomer who just graduated from school came to the Mecha Research Institute, Shen Yuhao.
Originally, based on his performance and grades at the federal university.
Almost all departments within the Central Academy of Sciences are available for selection.
This is a true all-rounder.
In almost every scientific research route, there is deep involvement.
But unfortunately...
This guy is a mecha fanatic.
Under everyone's puzzled gaze, I chose to enter this...
Inside the Mecha Research Institute, which is jokingly called the sunset subject by many people.
For a whole year, I never heard from Shen Yuhao again, as if this proud man of heaven had disappeared from everyone.
Until half a year ago.
A piece of news suddenly shocked the entire Central Academy of Sciences.
An epoch-making mecha that can be applied to fifth-level civilization interstellar warfare...
Developed and completed!
And the person who leads the entire project of this mecha named Tianqiong is exactly that...
