I plunder endlessly in the interstellar age

Chapter 252 Buying a Battleship

"Have all the supplies arrived?" Chen Han was the first to speak with a smile.

In the past month, they plundered nine planets and took a large amount of supplies from the Austen Group, and asked the secretary generals of these planets to send them to JK0810.

He wasn't worried that those people would play tricks, because Beiliang was still there.

"We have reached the seventh batch, and there are still two batches on the way. Let me show you something first." Bai Sha also smiled when he saw Chen Han and Mu Qianye, moved his fingers, and quickly transferred a video file.

Chen Han raised his hand and opened it with doubts. The more he looked, his eyes widened. There was a space scene inside. Dozens of supply ships were extending their mechanical arms to build something similar to a starport platform.

The whole is poured with heavy alloy, and it is estimated that the scale is several kilometers long and wide, and it is constantly expanding.

There are also hundreds of mechs busy on the platform, which can be seen as spectacular from the video.

"This...is this our star port?!" Chen Han could of course see that it was above JK0810.

"That's right, the platform of the high-level star port has been initially built, and it is expected to be completed in half a month."

"The next step is the platforms of the middle star port and the lower star port, which are expected to be completed within two months."

"After all the buildings are completed, they will be connected and the building will be arranged. The overall project is expected to take six to nine months."

"The blueprints for the outpost are all ready, and construction will start at the same time as the construction of the star port."

"If we can continue to ensure sufficient supplies, our star port will take shape in about a year and a half."

"In addition, I recruited another group of people. If they can arrive smoothly, it is estimated that this time will be further shortened." Baisha's smile became brighter.

It's just that his complexion is obviously much worse than before, and there is indescribable fatigue in his eyes.

The main reason is that there are too few people building JK0810 at this stage.

Time is tight and tasks are heavy, so he sleeps for two or three hours every day and then wakes up to supervise the work, for fear of making a mistake.

After all, it is not easy for one person to manage hundreds of warships and watch hundreds of thousands of marauders on the ground.

"One and a half years?" Mu Qianye frowned slightly, and couldn't help interjecting.

As far as she knew, even a small star port would not last for this period of time, but what they made was a large or even super large one.

"As long as the supplies are sufficient, one and a half years is enough." Bai Sha nodded affirmatively, "But it's just the beginning. If you want to improve it, you need to invest a lot in the later stage."

Most of the starport platforms are built automatically and can operate non-stop, and the requirements for manpower are not particularly high.

The main role of people is to provide mental work such as drawings, testing, debugging data, and maintenance.

And the strategic materials that Chen Han plundered recently and before are the best help, which can make the star port take shape as quickly as possible.

"Materials and money, no matter what is lacking, you can ask for it at any time. Only people, you have to find a way for the time being. When necessary, you can use predators, but you must guard against them." Chen Han thought for two seconds before opening his mouth.

If it can really be completed within a year and a half, then spending a little more money is not a problem.

"I'm already using Predators, and a very small part of them belong to related professions, so they can help."

"In order to prevent uncontrollable situations, I put explosive collars on the predators staying on the battleship or star port, which can be tracked, and they will explode when they leave the designated range." A Marauder wearing a collar.

"Well, look at it." Chen Han nodded, he was still very relieved of Baisha's work.

This kind of collar was developed by certain planets for captives. It has many restrictions, and the consequence of violating it is to blow up the neck.

"How about the predators on the ground? Are there any troubles?" Mu Qianye asked afterward.

"There was a quarrel more than [-] days ago. Because of the heavy workload, I ordered to kill a batch, hang all the corpses around, and stop the rest." Bai Sha nodded.

The method of killing and hanging corpses was taught by Chen Han, and it is indeed very useful.

"Tell those people that they are alive because they need to work and show their worth."

"If you can't do it, then die. Even if I kill them all, I don't care, and no one will know. If I dare to make trouble again, I will kill them all." Chen Han's tone was full of ferocity.

"Well, I'll pass it on, and it shouldn't happen in the future." Bai Sha nodded, took off his glasses and wiped them.

The ground is different from Xinggang. It is basically all physical work, and it is under control, so you can't even be lazy.

At first, these predators were able to persist, but this kind of hard life with no end in sight made them desperate.

So they, who were used to being lazy, staged a protest and demanded some rights.

But isn't it courting death to protest against Beiliang?Although Baisha had a good temper, he didn't mind losing hundreds of lives, so he killed all those who participated in the protest.

It's not that the rights and interests cannot be given, but that they can't be given now. He has to force out all the restless predators to avoid bigger problems in the future.

"Where is Duan Lang? Did he cause trouble?" Chen Han suddenly remembered the leader of the eastern faction of the Desolate Clan.

"He has been helping us escort and transport supplies recently, and he is quite active."

"And I checked specifically, he didn't cheat." Bai Sha put on his glasses again, with worry in his eyes, "However, the predators of several other factions are not peaceful."

"How?" Chen Han frowned slightly.

"They have tried to get close to JK0810 several times recently, but we have found and repelled them all, but there are still fleets around."

Baisha sent another enemy encounter record, which clearly showed that the looters would harass them by reconnaissance ships every few days.

Chen Han and Mu Qianye looked at each other, their faces were a little ugly, and the worrying thing still happened.

These predators are clearly testing to see if the main fleet is still there.

Once it is found that there are not so many warships, it is estimated that JK0810 will be attacked.

After a pause for a few seconds, Chen Han said slowly: "We can't go back now, and we can't provide any support. This matter has to be resolved by yourself."

"But I can give you a suggestion. As long as they dare to come over, they should catch up and beat them until they die."

"Once their fleet appears around, send out the third fleet directly and attack from time to time."

"As long as we pretend that our main force hasn't left yet, they won't dare to mess around."

"Persist for a while, and we will be able to free up time, and then none of us will be able to escape!"

After finishing speaking, Chen Han couldn't help sighing in his heart that it's good that the Third Fleet was left behind, otherwise the predators would swarm towards JK0810, there is really no good way.

"I'll take care of it, don't worry." Bai Sha's eyes were determined, and the topic changed, "How are you doing? Is there any trouble?"

Even if he stayed with JK0810, he followed the deeds of Chen Han and others every day, including the live broadcast, and subconsciously asked about the progress.

"Everything is within the plan, we are collecting money every day, and your boss has also contacted us." Speaking of this, Chen Han couldn't help laughing.

"I know, they came to me at the time, probably because they wanted me to talk to you, but I deliberately didn't respond, so that they couldn't grasp their limits, so they could only give more money to show their sincerity." Bai Sha also smiled.

Of course he knew about this, and he deliberately didn't show up because he wanted to help Chen Han cheat Byrne Industry.

"By the way, have you found a seller for what I want?" Chen Han suddenly became serious.

With the growth of Beiliang, the main battleships are completely insufficient, and new supplements are urgently needed.

Moreover, after the Exile reaches the heavy cavalry level, it also needs energy-level weapons.

But looking at the entire Tianhe system, there is no place to sell Crusader-class and Executioner-class warships, let alone energy-class weapons, so he can only let Baisha find a way.

"I found it. At this stage, only the Hardison Galaxy can provide it. We, Byrne Industries, have been cooperating with the Mark Group over there, and I know a few people." Baisha also became serious and nodded. Just wanted to say this.

"Oh? Can I buy it now?" Chen Han's eyes lit up.

If he can add some battleships, he will be more confident in his next plan.

"Approximately how much do you want?" Bai Sha didn't answer, but asked instead.

"Three heavy cavalry-class heavy battleships, twenty-five executioner-class cruisers, twenty-five executioner-class battleships, fifty Crusader-class cruisers, and fifty Crusader-class battleships."

"The requirement is full configuration, either first-hand or second-hand, but the service period of the second-hand cannot exceed ten years."

"In addition, there are energy-level weapons and conventional weapons and ammunition. I will send you a form later, and you can buy according to it." Mu Qianye answered for Chen Han, and they discussed all of these.

"So many?" Bai Sha was obviously taken aback.

Knowing that Beiliang needed to replenish its troops, he thought he would only buy dozens of ships, but Chen Han ordered more than a hundred ships in one go.

You must know that the Crusader-class and Executioner-class warships are not cheap. One hundred and fifty ships are fully equipped, and there are not hundreds of billions that cannot be taken down.

The most outrageous thing is the three heavy cavalry-class heavy battleships, each of which is tens of billions in size when fully equipped, and at least two three-star ship divisions and several two-star ship divisions are required to complete the control.

Not to mention the other personnel in the ship, as well as all kinds of maintenance, all kinds of miscellaneous things add up, and I don't know how much money it will cost.

If energy-level weapons and various weapons and ammunition are added, it may be worth trillions.

There are trillions of star union coins, even for big groups like Austen Group and Byrne Industries, it would be painful to take them out at one go. How much money does Chen Han have now?
"Not much, we haven't finished talking yet. We have to buy an additional two hundred Punisher-class warships, which are also fully equipped. You can buy this from Byrne Industry." Chen Han grinned, their current account in Beiliang is indeed Some deposits.

First of all, it robbed two starports under the Law Enforcer Federation and made nearly [-] billion.

The money has not been spent much, and the supplies of the two planets of the Aoshi Group have been emptied, and more than [-] billion have been obtained.

If it's only about [-] billion, he wouldn't dare to spend so much, after all, he still needs to save some for emergency.

The biggest problem is that after the live broadcast announcement, the major groups and planets voluntarily paid protection fees, and tens of billions were credited every day, and more than two trillion yuan was raised in the past [-] days.

Adding the [-] billion obtained earlier, Beiliang now has [-] trillion in hand.

If it wasn't for Aoyang's cleverness to recover the activity funds of all the planets under his banner in time, they would probably earn more.

So now he spends tens of trillions to expand his armaments, but in fact it only accounts for one-third of the total.

If it is not necessary to consider manpower, then it is not a problem for him to directly spend [-] trillion yuan to buy various warships.

After all, money is dead, and the value that can be created there is limited, but if you strengthen your strength, you can get more money.

As long as these more than a hundred warships are in place, he will dare to attack the remaining strategic points, even if the Federation of Law Enforcers and the Aoshi Group are protecting them, it will be useless.

"What do you need to use the Punisher-class battleship for? Stay at JK0810? But I can't recruit so many trustworthy warships for the time being." Bai Sha couldn't keep up with Chen Han's brain circuit, so he couldn't help asking.

He can understand buying warships above the Crusader class, and they can be used in the main fleet.

But the Punisher class is still two hundred ships, which is rather strange.

"Beiliang will soon add a vassal force of the Beiliang Foreign Legion, and the Punisher-class battleship is for them." Chen Han did not hide it.

Since these people chose to join Beiliang, even if they were affiliated, Chen Han would not let them use those dilapidated battleships again.

And if they go out to perform tasks and fail to complete them, they will lose people from Beiliang, which will reduce the outside world's fear of Beiliang.

Therefore, a major refit is necessary. Anyway, two hundred Punisher-class warships will not cost much.

"That's it." Baisha lowered his head and thought for a few seconds, then slowly raised his head, "I can arrange for the Punisher-class battleship, and the price from Byrne Industries can be much lower than the market price."

"But you want so many warships above the Crusader class, you may not be able to get them in a short time."

"In addition, even if it can be done, it will exceed 30% of the market price, because it is an inter-galaxy transaction."

This instantly froze the smile on Chen Han's face, and frowned again: "The price is easy to say, it's nothing more than a little bit beyond the budget, but what's the point of not getting it in a short time?"

As far as he knows, this Hudson galaxy is also a third-level civilized star system. The Mark Group can rank among the third-level civilized star systems, and it is naturally strong.

Could it be that a large group can't even sell a hundred warships?That's too much.

"If it really doesn't work, you can give up the heavy cavalry class first, and buy the Crusader class and Executioner class." Mu Qianye quickly added.

She thought that there was something wrong with the three heavy cavalry-class heavy battleships. After all, they were of higher rank and heavy, so it was really hard to find them.

"No, in normal times, it is very easy to buy more than a hundred Crusader-class warships, and you can even buy several times more."

"But our luck is not very good. There is a person who bought a large number of warships and supplies from the Mark Group in advance."

"If we just buy dozens of small ships, for my sake, the Mark Group should have it."

"But if there are more than a hundred ships, there is a high probability that there will be none, and we will have to wait a few months." Bai Sha shook his head and explained.
