Three months have passed since the Battle of Wien.
The Second Army Corps is currently under the leadership of Liang Xingchen and is still stationed in Wien with the Queen's Guards Fleet to prevent accidents.
Lin Fan took the First Legion to Lyon, where the 11th and 12th fleets that did not participate in the Battle of Wien were stationed.
Lyon is a very special star system, not that it is special inside, but that it connects ten star paths!
One of them leads to the territory behind Lyon, and the other nine lead to nine different second-level civilizations, and these second-level civilizations are also connected to many other first- and second-level civilizations.
It can be said that beyond Lyon, there is a vast area composed of level 1 and level 2 civilizations. Its scope spans more than 500 light-years and is called the Farid Star Domain by the Kabat Empire.
However, humans did not continue to use this name. Instead, they renamed Lyon to Loulan, and at the same time changed the name of the Farid Star Territory to the Loulan Star Territory.
According to intelligence, the Loulan Star Territory is composed of 339 second-level civilizations and 2,716 first-level civilizations.
Therefore, the former Kabat civilization built Loulan into a trade hub, specializing in trading with these level 2 civilizations to extract their value.
According to Lin Zhen's plan, Loulan will continue to serve as a trade hub for a period of time, and humans will control this area instead of the Kabat Empire.
At the same time, Lin Fan also needs to discover some potential civilizations among these civilizations and become the first batch of affiliated civilizations of the Federation.
Therefore, Lin Fan decided to make a visit plan around the Loulan Star Territory!
The plan will be implemented by ten fleets in the First Legion. Each fleet will carry a professional team formed by the Federation. They are responsible for diplomacy and are also responsible for conducting a comprehensive assessment of each civilization.
After all, even if the Federation wants to acquire affiliated civilizations, it doesn't want just any garbage, but only civilizations with huge potential in a certain aspect.
After becoming a federation-affiliated civilization, you can take on tasks through the federation's newly-built affiliated civilization platform, earn points, and exchange them for technology, equipment, battleships, and other things.
At the same time, for the second-level civilization, the federation will also have a complete set of support plans to support it into a third-level civilization in the shortest possible time. After all, the second-level civilization cannot help the federation much!
Lin Fan's plan has been authorized by the top federal officials, and Lin Fan is fully responsible for it. As for professional diplomacy, an evaluation team is already being formed, and ten teams will be sent directly to Loulan.
In fact, Lin Fan was not in the mood to engage in this plan. After all, he was worried about the relationship between the Serra Empire and the Babavi Empire.
Will the Battle of Venn make the Babavi Empire pay attention to humans? This is what he is most worried about.
However, a piece of information from the Federal Presidential Palace a month ago completely put his worries aside.
Three months ago, Lin Fan directly captured General Basel, one of the three generals of the Serra Empire, and a group of 32 members of the command team in his battleship!
After the war, Lin Fan arranged for a battleship to send these prisoners to Earth. A month ago, the Presidential Office finally found a way to obtain relevant information and sent it to Lin Fan.
According to intelligence, more than a hundred years ago, the wreckage of a battleship buried underground was discovered on a planet within the Serra Empire. According to the research of the Serra Empire, this warship was inferior to the warships of the Serra Empire.
, it has to advance several levels, and is most likely a battleship of a fifth-level civilization.
So the Serra Empire stopped a large number of top scientists from conducting research on this spacecraft. However, this research lasted for a full hundred years, and no results were obtained.
At this time, the Serra Empire also understood that research across civilization levels would be fruitless. It was like if you threw a pistol to a primitive man and gave him a hundred years, he would not be able to figure out the reason. The same reason.
As for technology, if you cross a level and have complete scientific research materials, you can still research it.
For example, if you give a level three civilization all the technical information on the energy shield, there is no problem, but if you want to give the level three civilization a space shield for a level five civilization, even if you give it all the information, it will never be able to come up with it.
Because the basic science supporting this technology is completely lacking.
After the newest emperor of the Serra Empire came to power, he made a decision, that is, since he couldn't research it, he would not research it. It would be better to replace it with something practical so that the empire could get real tangible benefits.
!
More than 20 years ago, the Babawi Empire's centenary arm inspection began. When it passed the Serra Empire, the emperor of the empire presented the wreckage of the battleship to the Babawi Empire.
Of course, the emperor of the Serra Empire would not be stupid enough to say that he had been studying it for a hundred years, which would be an act of seeking death. Instead, he told the envoy of the Babavi Empire that this was just excavated.
After careful identification by the team led by the envoy, it was confirmed that this was a battleship of a fifth-level civilization, and it was not a foreign trade warship sold by the fifth-level civilization of the Milky Way, but a battleship used by a certain fifth-level civilization for its own use. Because of this wreckage
Among the equipment, there are no devices on the foreign trade warships to prevent technology leakage.
This means that after the Babavi civilization obtains this battleship, it can completely study it to help it break through to the fifth-level civilization in the future.
After the news came back to the imperial capital, the emperor of the Babavi Empire was very happy and immediately announced that the Serra civilization would be given 360,000 foreign trade warships as a reward!
So, ten years ago, 360,000 warships were transported to the Serra Empire, and the Serra Empire used these 360,000 warships to form three Royal Guards fleets, each with 120,000 warships!
And what Basel brought to Wien this time was the Royal Third Guards Fleet.
Seeing this, Lin Fan understood.
First of all, there is no special relationship between the Babavi Empire and the Serra Empire. It is just that the Serra Empire donated the wreckage of a fifth-level civilized warship for its own use, which made the Babavi Emperor Longyan very happy, so he rewarded the Serra Empire with 360,000
A foreign trade warship.
Secondly, the Babavi Empire only conducts a patrol on the arm every hundred years. Its purpose is easy to guess, that is, it is to go around in a circle to see if any civilization poses a threat to itself, and then go to each civilization to collect them.
Pay tribute at once and achieve multiple benefits with one stone.
According to Basel's information, the last inspection occurred 22 years ago, which means that the Babawe civilization will not reappear in the next 78 years, and humans are safe for the time being.
Finally, there are 240,000 guard warships in the Serra Empire, which is a big threat.
However, the information sent also said that the presidential office has formulated a five-year plan.
There are two points in this five-year plan that are most eye-catching.
One is that the Federation will form a new Third Army, and the other is that the Federation will urgently supply 500,000 sets of energy shields and jump engines to the Io Federation.
