Although Babaville claimed to have returned to the empire, Elfie would not let down her guard because of this.
After the Queen's meeting and discussions with the heads of the twelve tribes, Elfie decided not to use the Queen's Guards Corps in the first wave of the offensive, but to use four first-level legions at the border nodes (four equipped with energy shields).
Legion) as the vanguard, and the remaining secondary legions (regular legions of the Io Federation) followed and attacked in four ways from the Star Road.
Among the three Queen's Guard Corps, one went to the Human Second Corps to temporarily escape the limelight, while the other two participated in the Human Federation's Interstellar Great Wall Project, and then jointly stationed at Shanhaiguan.
The battle plan was quickly distributed to the border legions. Speaking of which, the frontline legions had been waiting for this order for a long time. You must know that the hatred between the Io Federation and the Serra Empire has long been irreconcilable.
A few days later, after the expedition supplies were completed, each legion, under the leadership of the first-level legion, plunged into the Star Road and began the expedition journey.
At this moment, Lin Fan's Federation First Army finally arrived on Earth.
"Lin Fan, have you heard about what happened in the Io Federation a few days ago?"
In the conference room, Lin Zhen looked at Lin Fan and said, with Sanders and Ed sitting next to him.
"Well, after seeing the report, Scott was a little clever, but the effect is not bad!"
Listening to Lin Zhen's words, Lin Fan also remembered the report he had seen a few days ago. In his opinion, although Scott's choice was not the best option, it was still passable, and at least the result was not bad.
After all, in that situation, a decision had to be made immediately, so it was not bad to have such a result.
But overall, a large part of it was due to Scott's good luck and it was completely dark. If Babaweiler had any doubts about the Seventh Fleet at that time, everything would be lost.
"Well, although we were lucky enough to avoid it this time, it also sounded the alarm for us. The Interstellar Great Wall project must be completed as soon as possible!"
"Well, old man, it's 8,000 light years after all. It would have taken me 5 or 6 years just to get there. I can't get up any faster even if I want to!"
Regarding this point, what depresses Lin Fan the most is that it is a distance of 8,000 light years. Even though the entire legion is now equipped with the second generation jump engine, it still takes nearly 6 years to reach it.
Moreover, it will take 4 or 5 years to deploy these 40 million jump blocking devices and monitoring equipment. The entire plan will not take more than ten years, so it is even more difficult to even think about it.
"Huh? Why are you all looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?"
Lin Fan had a question mark on his face. He didn't say anything wrong. Why do the three of them have such weird expressions?
"Ahem, Lin Fan, there is actually something you have never known. Only the three of us have known about it all these years!"
Ed said from the side.
This made Lin Fan a little strange. Why was it concealed so well that he didn't even get any news?
"In fact, after we joined the Xio Alliance, in addition to purchasing three transition-related technologies, we also purchased one technology, which is wormhole detection technology."
"Could it be?"
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes and vaguely guessed what Ed wanted to express.
"That's right, using this technology, we explored the entire human territory and finally discovered a natural wormhole. The exploration fleet sent back then actually entered the wormhole to explore. After all, no one knows where the wormhole leads!"
"After our exploration, we finally discovered that this wormhole leads directly 7,800 light-years away, just 200 light-years behind Shanhaiguan. This 7,800 light-year distance can be traversed in just a few minutes with the help of the wormhole!"
Lin Fan was a little shocked by Ed's words. Things like wormholes have always been just human fantasy and speculation, but he didn't expect that this thing actually existed.
In the history of mankind, there have been many conjectures about wormholes, and there are also many related film and television works. Some conjectures are that wormholes can span long distances instantly, while others are that wormholes can travel through time, go back to the past, and travel to
future!
In short, there are many conjectures, and therefore humans are no stranger to the word wormhole, but after all, it is something that has not been truly confirmed to exist. But now Ed is saying that not only does this thing exist, but the Federation has even found and used it.
Already?
"Actually, we were very confused about whether to redeem this technology. After all, the introduction said that there are only 5 wormholes discovered in the entire galaxy, so the redemption price of this technology is only 1 million!"
Ed also recalled at this time that he was really confused at the time. After all, Lin Zhen said that every point must be spent wisely, and most of this kind of technology is wasted.
In the end, I exchanged this technology only after Bai Zixuan strongly requested it. After all, for a scientific researcher, the temptation of wormholes is too great. Even if I cannot find the wormhole after exchanging the technology, I can still learn from the technology.
A lot of relevant knowledge.
Unexpectedly, I actually found one in the end, and it was only 2 million light years away from Shanhaiguan. Everyone said that the 1 million points were really worth it.
"Two million light-years, so it only takes 56 days for us to travel to Shanhaiguan, which is 8,000 light-years away?"
Lin Fan did a little mental calculation and came to an astonishing conclusion!
"That's right!"
Ed also responded with a smile!
"Okay, let me announce the order now!"
Seeing that Sanders had almost finished speaking, he stood up and said to Lin Fan!
"It is now ordered that the rank of General Lin Fan be promoted to a two-star general. Three days later, he will lead the Federation's First Army, the protection engineering fleet and the transport fleet to Shanhaiguan through the wormhole to officially launch the Interstellar Great Wall Project! At the same time, Lin Fan was appointed a two-star general.
Commander-in-Chief of Shanhaiguan Theater!"
"In addition, Chris Rhodes will be awarded the title of admiral and appointed as the commander of the Federation's Fourth Army. The Fourth Army will be under the jurisdiction of the Shanhaiguan Theater! When you return, you will ask Chris to report to the Starfleet headquarters. As for your First Fleet,
The commander will make his own arrangements and just report it later!"
"Finally, the Io Federation's two legions of Queen's Guards will also go to Shanhaiguan, so by then you will have the combat power of four legions under your command!"
"yes!"
Even Lin Fan was a little proud at this time. He was the commander-in-chief of the first war zone established by the Federation.
He has four legions under his command, with a total strength of 1.08 million warships, including 480,000 level 4 civilized warships and 600,000 quasi-level 4 civilized warships!
"Okay, let's get down to business. Go back and bring my grandson and granddaughter home! I haven't even hugged them yet! Ed, please come and eat with me tonight. Speaking of which, one of them is also you.
Where is the granddaughter!"
"good!"
Of course Aide would not refuse. He had not seen his precious daughter for many years, let alone a granddaughter now. Even if Lin Zhen didn't say anything, he would still come to visit her. 1603469124
