With the main engine and attitude engine of the light cruiser, the power of the Exploding Sawtooth Dinner Knife has reached a new level. After calculations, Chu Jungui planned a 70-meter new hull, which still maintains close to fighter-level power.
After mobilizing all the computing power and two full days of research, the new generation of grain power furnace was finally completed. The basic principle of the power furnace has not changed, but the energy output has been optimized according to the purpose, which resulted in two
different models.
One is a small power furnace with a length, width and height of no more than 50 centimeters, with an output power of only 10,000 kilowatts. The other version is a large power furnace with an output power of more than 500,000 kilowatts, and the detonation device has been redesigned to detonate it if necessary.
The power is greatly increased. If it is detonated in a light cruiser like last time, a power furnace can blow a light cruiser into two pieces.
At this moment, the daily production capacity of the two bases has exceeded 60,000, which can produce 40 large power furnaces. Chu Jungui filled up the production capacity in one go, and then flew into the orbital station with all the newly produced power furnaces the next day.
At this time, a transport ship was parked near the track assembly point, and hundreds of engineers were busy splicing the prefabricated substrates together. As soon as Chu Jungui's transport ship arrived, dozens of people came over to put the transport ship together.
The power furnaces on the ship were moved out one by one and installed on the base plate. In less than half a day, 30 large power furnaces were installed, and then the engineers began to modify the Explosive Sawtooth Dinner Knife according to the newly obtained tasks.
One day later, a starship painted in silver gray quietly appeared on the outer edge of Planet No. 4. After signaling with a flashing beam, it slowly approached the stealth point.
The Explosive Jagged Dinner Knife took off, approached the starship, and completed the docking. Everyone entered the new starship and saw Lin Xi.
Li Ruobai immediately rushed over and said, "Sister Xi! Are you already a general? So fast!"
"It's just a new starship. Well, actually it's not new anymore. It has been used for almost 50 years. But now there is no inventory in the fleet at all. The original captain of this starship had another appointment, so he gave it to me.
.”
"Then you should hurry up, this is a light cruiser."
"The captain of a light cruiser is not necessarily a general." Lin Xi smiled.
"Most of them are, or in other words, they will be sooner or later. By the way, has the application been sent in?"
"It has been submitted. It will probably take some time for approval."
Lin Xi walked up to Chu Jungui, looked at him, and said, "Thank you for your military contribution."
Chu Jungui suddenly felt a little embarrassed and said, "It seems, not much."
Lin Xi smiled and said: "It's enough for me to apply for major general as an exception. Isn't this much?"
"Can there be more? Do you need it?" Chu Jungui looked very serious.
Lin Xi smiled and shook his head, "No, that's enough for the time being. If I say more, I'm afraid the old generals' hearts will be bad. Besides, there's no point in increasing the military rank. There will be no new ships and no new positions here. On the contrary,
You need to improve yourself, and our Lightyear Legion also needs to improve its organization. There are still many places where military merit is needed."
Chu Jun looked around and said, "Show me your starship!"
"Okay." As soon as Lin Xi finished speaking, someone suddenly shouted "No!".
Lin Xi was also stunned. She turned around and saw a very young lieutenant, retreating with a red face.
Lin Xi asked gently: "Why not?"
The young lieutenant looked at Chu Jungui, then at Lin Xi, and finally plucked up the courage and said loudly: "He just went to the bridge a few times before, and he dismantled our main guns and evacuated our torpedoes!
This time he actually wants to visit the entire ship, wouldn’t it be more outrageous? Does he want to dismantle the bed as well?”
Lin Xi laughed and said, "Okay, I understand."
She led Chu Jungui through the crowd and began to visit each place. Chu Jungui looked very carefully. As long as he could see the place, even if it was a small and remote cabin, he would go and see it with his own eyes.
The hull of the light cruiser is already quite large. Taking the one Lin Xi is riding on as an example, the length of the ship is already 350 meters, and the height and width are each over 70 meters. If you look at it in such detail, you might not be able to finish it all in a whole day.
.
After watching this for several hours, Lin Xi asked: "Are you really going to see every place?"
Chu Jungui nodded, "Yes. This is your first real starship. I'm afraid it will be used until the end of this battle, so I want to take a good look and see where there may be hidden dangers."
Lin Xi sighed softly: "You are not a student of starship design. What's the use of just looking at it like this? There are many places that cannot be seen without taking it apart."
"Let's take a look at what's visible on the surface first." Chu Jungui was unusually insistent.
Lin Xi chuckled and said, "Okay, then I'll watch it with you all day."
The two of them walked through the forest of steel and energy, as if all the war and hardship were out of reach.
Lin Xi and Chu Jungui visited the starship, and the others were not idle. Li Ruobai and the first mate started a new round of transactions. The four energy capsules left by Lin Xi last time were all destroyed, so they paid 2.5 million for each
The price was converted to 10 million. This time Lin Xi brought a total of 40 energy capsules, and the cost of filling them once was 250,000. After deducting the cost of the 4 energy capsules last time, there was still 10 million in revenue.
During this period, the production capacity of the base was almost entirely used in expanding production and building starships, so the crystalline hydrogen was only intermittently produced at half a ton, plus some leftover composite materials, which amounted to a total of 20 million. But there are still light years.
You need to purchase space torpedoes and high-energy particle cannon shells from the Ninth Fleet. One space torpedo costs 2 million. So after buying the ammunition, there will be nothing left.
After the goods for the transaction were moved, Chu Jungui and Lin Xi had roughly seen the same thing. Lin Xi simply sent a copy of the starship's layout structure diagram and instruction manual to Chu Jungui.
After meeting up with Li Ruobai and the girl, it was time to separate. Lin Xi just looked at Chu Jungui without saying goodbye. Chu Jungui didn't know why, so he just stood there. In the end, Li Ruobai couldn't see it.
Gui pushed on his back and said, "Go give me a hug!"
Chu Jungui thought for a while, then walked forward and gave Lin Xi a formal and standard hug.
Lin Xi couldn't laugh or cry. She didn't know whether to be happy or sigh after receiving such a brotherly hug. She pushed Chu Jungui out of the hatch, waved her hand, and the connecting channel automatically disconnected, slowly retracted it, and then the hatch closed.
