525 - The Great Enemy Invasion
How long does it take to cook a meal?
If you let Yunyi talk, at most half an hour is enough.The high-quality kitchen utensils built with modern technology will not take too long no matter whether it is processing dishes or cooking.Even for some time-consuming dishes, it will not take too long. The advancement of technology is enough to make up for the time consumption.But now, Yun Yi listened to the cooing sound coming from his belly from time to time, with a wry smile on his face.

After stepping off the spaceship, Yunyi didn't eat anything and went directly to Lin Moxue, and later helped her finish her work and got busy, and didn't remember to eat during the period.

Up to now, Yun Yi has not eaten for more than ten hours.However, although there were constant voices in the kitchen, more than an hour had passed, and Lin Moxue hadn't seen a plate of edible food.He wanted to go to the kitchen to have a look, but he was worried that Lin Moxue would be embarrassed, so Yun Yi could only wait helplessly.

While waiting, Yun Yi was not idle. He turned on his optical brain and browsed the recent news about Chu Tang.

After reading a few articles, Yunyi understood.Although such a serious incident happened in Chu Tang, for the common people, all they could know was that the former king of Chu Tang, Chu Qingyun, had passed away.As for the closure of the Chang'an department that day, it was also told that it was a measure of last resort to prevent the news of His Majesty's death from leaking out.Anyway, except for the personnel related to this incident and the military leaders, most people don't know what happened in Chutang at all.

As for the arrest warrant issued by Prince Chu Xiuding, it was confiscated without even going out of the Chang'an department.Therefore, in the eyes of most people, the prime minister of Chu and Tang was still Qin Shou, and the marshal was still Lin Jiaoyang. Except for the change of His Majesty the emperor, everything else was the same as usual.

After thinking about it for a while, Yun Yi guessed that this might be the result of a compromise between Qin Shou, Lin Jiaoyang and Chu Xiuting due to New America's actions.But soon he shook his head and denied it, because he knew that among the three parties, apart from Lin Jiaoyang, the other two had people behind them.Of course, Qin Shou was supported by the Dragon Slaying Society, but he didn't know who supported Chu Xiujing.For the four major organizations, even if Chu and Tang are all occupied by New America, as long as they don't lose their own interests, they won't take care of them.What's more, the purpose of that mysterious organization to choose Chu Xiuting was to oppose Qin Shou, who was supported by the Dragon Slayer Society, so how could they cooperate with him?

After much deliberation, Yun Yi felt that the whole Chu and Tang Dynasty was filled with layers of dense fog, and when he pulled away the surface layer, he found that the truth was still hidden in the deepest layer.

Judging from the current situation of Chu and Tang, the most favorable one is not Chu Xiuting, but Qin Shou.

For more than ten years before this incident happened, Qin Shou had been making arrangements non-stop.He holds a high position and controls the transfer of government personnel.I don't know how many people from the Dragon Slayer Society or Qin Shou held important positions on those planets under his arrangement.These people usually do things conscientiously, no different from other officials.But now, with Qin Shou raising his arms, those hidden officials jumped out to cheer for him.It can be said that at least one-third of the planets in the entire Chu and Tang Dynasties have secretly fallen under Qin Shou's control.

Of the remaining planets, there is about a third, because the fleet protecting them has defected to Lin Jiaoyang, and Lin Jiaoyang's reputation is very high.After the people sent by Lin Jiaoyang explained, the chiefs of these planets joined Lin Jiaoyang's forces without saying a word.

Among the three groups of forces, the weakest one is the unenthroned crown prince Chu Xiuding.After the old king passed away, the two important ministers, Qin Shou and Lin Jiaoyang, did not support him. Although relying on the royal fleet to control the most prosperous capital, Chang'an, his sphere of influence can only be limited to this point.In other galaxies other than the Chang'an system, no one listened to him at all.

In addition to the areas controlled by Lin Jiaoyang, Qin Shou, and Chu Xiuting, there are about one-third of the planets, which are vacillating between various forces.Some were because Qin Shou's people did not fully control the planet and had disputes with other officials; Arriving, can I take the opportunity to rise at this stage, divide the land and rule, and also play as a local emperor... Anyway, the remaining third, about 2000 planets, are not controlled by any of the three parties, and they are managed by themselves. Collect your own taxes.

These planets are also the targets of Lin Jiaoyang, Qin Shou and Chu Xiuding.

After checking the area actually controlled by Lin Jiaoyang, Yun Yi breathed a sigh of relief.Because the galaxies where the manufacturing factories of Nebula Group and Innovation Technology Company are located are all within Lin Jiaoyang's actual control area.Although the headquarters of Xingyun Group and Innovation Technology Company are both in Chang'an Department, they are under the control of Chu Xiujing.However, in the headquarters, there are only sales personnel and business personnel, and the manufacturing plants are all in relatively remote galaxies.

Even the research and development factories of the two companies are not placed in the Chang'an department.

In this case, it is equivalent to Lin Jiaoyang holding two super arms manufacturing factories in his hands.In the past few years, because of Chu Tang's aggressive purchase of Wumu-class warships and War God-class mechas, coupled with the hot sales of Meteor-[-] mechas, the two companies have made a lot of money.With money in hand, it is natural to expand production and manufacturing capabilities.After the expansion, the combined manufacturing and R&D capabilities of these two companies are not much worse than Veyron.

As for Weilong, it is a bit of a tragedy. Although this company directly belongs to the Chu and Tang royal families, its development over the years is not limited to one place, and various branches and manufacturing factories are almost all over the Chu and Tang Dynasties.In this way, the mech manufacturing department is in the hands of Lin Jiaoyang, the warship manufacturing department is in the hands of Qin Shou, and the research and development organization is firmly in the hands of Chu Xiuting, dividing a good Veyron Group into three parts .

In terms of manufacturing capabilities, Lin Jiaoyang is now the number one deserved; Qin Shou, who owns many small and medium-sized manufacturing companies, is the second, and Chu Xiuting is the youngest.

But when it comes to the training of ship operators and combatants, it's just the opposite.The Chang'an department gathered dozens of colleges with the best quality in the entire empire, and trained a large number of high-quality talents for the Chu and Tang Dynasties every year.Now that Chang'an is in the hands of Chu Xiuding, these students are naturally Chu Xiuding's people.In addition to the capital galaxy, the northern starry sky, which is the area controlled by Qin Shou, has better teaching quality than the southern starry sky, so the training schools that Lin Jiaoyang can control are the worst among the three forces.

However, Lin Jiaoyang was the marshal of the military, and he had countless capable people and strange men. He could randomly recruit some veterans from a fleet, and he could form a high-quality military academy to continuously train new recruits.

But training takes time. Lin Jiaoyang, who started from scratch, is no match for the other two colleges that have a large number of graduates every year to serve them.

At least in two to three years, Lin Jiaoyang would not be able to recruit a large number of people.

In the process of browsing the news, Yun Yi suddenly glanced and saw a letter lying in his mailbox at some point.I checked the time, but it was sent three days ago.At that time, he was on the returning spaceship, working on the design of the mech, presumably he was too involved, so he didn't see it.

Looking at the sender, it turned out to be Li Xingke.

Yun Yi knew what the letter contained without looking.But he still opened it and looked at it carefully, and it was exactly as he guessed.Li Xingke is from Paradise Island. The letter to Yunyi was naturally because of such a serious problem in Chu and Tang. Yunyi took the opportunity to take advantage of Lin Jiaoyang's influence, and with the support of Paradise Island, let him be on the island. Get a piece of the chaos and build your own sphere of influence.

It is very clear in the letter that as long as Yunyi agrees, Paradise Island will immediately send a fleet and mecha fighters to drive him, and there are countless valuable supplies that will be delivered in the shortest possible time.

After reading it, Yun Yi sneered and deleted the letter.

When he went to the Lichma Federation before, Elder Ma of Paradise Island told him that as long as he raised it to Paradise Island, Paradise Island would spare no effort to support Yunyi in establishing a new country.But Yunyi didn't want his country to become a pawn in Paradise Island's fight against the Dragon Slayer Society. Although they encountered many difficulties after the establishment of Berwick, Yunyi and the Berwick government gritted their teeth and survived, and did not submit to Paradise Island. Ask for a penny.

Perhaps because of the last time, the materials provided by Paradise Island to Yunyi this time are several times more than the last time. According to a rough estimate, at least materials worth nearly [-] billion imperial gold dollars.

Although very jealous, Yunyi still has no intention of asking for help from Paradise Island.

But after thinking about it, he decided to write back a letter to Li Xingke.

Since Paradise Island had to deal with the Dragon Slayer Society, and the spokesperson of the Dragon Slayer Society in Chu and Tang was Qin Shou, and they wanted to support someone to fight against Qin Shou, who could be more suitable than Lin Jiaoyang?With Lin Jiaoyang's connections and Paradise Island's support, it would not be difficult to defeat Qin Shou.

After sorting out my thoughts, I wrote it to Li Xingke and asked him to forward it to Elder Ma.Yun Yi knew that if Elder Ma read this letter, he would definitely reconsider the strategic layout in Chu and Tang in his heart.With the support of Paradise Island, Lin Jiaoyang's goal and path will be much simpler.

After finishing all this, Yun Yi checked the time, and it was already past eight o'clock in the evening, remembering that it was not yet six o'clock when he and Lin Moxue left the office.The door of the kitchen was closed tightly, and the sound of cooking could be heard from time to time.

"It's almost ready." Yun Yi said to himself, persuading himself to wait a little longer.

After another ten minutes, the kitchen door finally opened from the inside.Seeing the door open, Yun Yi even had the urge to burst into tears.It is really difficult to eat a meal of Lin Moxue's.

"It's finally all right, but I'm exhausted!"

Lin Moxue came out carrying two plates, her clothes were splashed with red and green vegetable juices, her sleeves were covered with a lot of oil stains, and her hair was a little messy, but the two plates of dishes she was holding looked pretty good, red and green. There are all kinds of green ones, which make people full of appetite at a glance.

"Why do you do so much? It's just the two of us. If we can't finish it, it will be wasted." Yun Yi quickly took the plate from her hand, pretending not to see the oil stains on her clothes.

Lin Moxue was taken aback, "You can't finish these two dishes, can you?"

Yun Yi was also stunned, and immediately understood.Emotional Lin Moxue has been busy in the kitchen for more than two hours, and the final result is the two colorful dishes in front of her.When I thought about when I was studying in Chutang, it only took less than half an hour a day to prepare a sumptuous table of four dishes and one soup for him and Zhao Xiyue.

Suddenly, a sense of pride welled up.

"As long as it's made by you, I can eat as much as I want." Yun Yi said, patting his chest.

Lin Moxue giggled, and said, "Taste it quickly. I learned this when I was free in the Marshal's Mansion a few months ago. This is called Erquan Yingyue." She pointed to the plate on the left and said.

Yunyi looked along, and the dinner plate was covered with black fungus, and sliced ​​green bamboo shoots were placed on it like lotus leaves on a pond. There was a white lotus flower on the lotus leaf. The vegetables were cut and arranged, which looked pretty.On the other corner of the plate, there was a bright crescent moon. After taking a look, Yun Yi recognized that it was made by cutting the crescent moon out of wild rice stems.

Regardless of the taste, just Lin Moxue's thoughts moved him very much.

"What is this?" Yun Yi pointed to another plate, but it was made of burnt fried eggs, and emerald green vegetables were scattered on it.As if there was something else in the omelette.

"This is called Mangypsophila!" Lin Moxue smiled, with a little hope in her eyes, "Try it quickly."

Seeing that the color and matching are good, Yun Yi was a little moved, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a chopstick on the "Erquan Yingyue" and put it in his mouth, and tasted it... light, just such a taste!
After only chewing twice, Yunyi stretched her neck and swallowed it.

"Have you tasted this dish after it's ready?" Yun Yi asked, but Lin Moxue shook her head, "I don't have time to taste it. I'm afraid you'll be hungry, so I'll bring it out as soon as it's ready. How about it, okay Do you want to eat?"

"It's delicious, it's really delicious!" Yun Yi looked happy, pulled the plate of "Erquan Yingyue" in front of her, and ate it with big mouthfuls.After tasting it, Yunyi finally knew why it took so long for Lin Moxue to cook only two dishes.It turned out that she fried the fungus first, spread the fried fungus on the plate, and then fried the green bamboo shoots... In this way, such a small dish requires three or four dishes to be cooked together.

The green bamboo shoots didn't seem to be salted and had no taste at all.But the wild rice stem seemed to be pickled with salt, so salty that he almost spit it out.And when the fungus was put into his mouth, it was like a ball of raging fire. As soon as he took a sip, he knew that the fungus was definitely filled with a lot of hot red peppers, a special product of Lie Mars.That kind of super spicy food, even when Yun Yi cooks, he only dares to put a little bit in it... The taste of such a dish can be imagined.But Yunyi knew that this was Lin Moxue's wish, so he didn't care about 21, he picked up the plate and poured it into his mouth. He didn't have any free time, and it took less than 5 minutes to pour the whole meal into his mouth. Putting all the dishes into his stomach, he picked up the cool tea cup next to him and drank it all in one gulp. Then he let out a long breath and shouted with satisfaction, "It's so delicious!"

Lin Moxue covered her lips with her white and tender hands in surprise, and exclaimed, "Oh my god, you eat too fast. It's all my fault. It took too long. Are you starving?"

"Hungry is not hungry. The key is that your cooking is so delicious, I couldn't help but ate it all. Uh... I didn't leave some for you." Yunyi said pretending to be embarrassed, but said in her heart This time, you must not cook in Moxue, or you will starve to death, or you will be burned to death, or you will be salted to death!

"As long as you like it, it doesn't matter if I eat or not." Lin Moxue smiled slightly, as if watching Yun Yi eat up all the things she made could make her forget her hunger.

"I'll try this again."

As she said that, Yun Yi stretched out her chopsticks to another plate, and she had already made up her mind that if the taste was still the same as that plate just now, Lin Moxue must not let her taste it!Otherwise, she would definitely guess that the plate just now must not be tasty.

Fortunately, the taste of this plate is still average. Although it is not delicious, it is not salty or bland, and it can barely be eaten.

"The taste is pretty good, but not as good as the one just now." Yun Yi praised.

Lin Moxue has long wanted to taste the taste of the dishes she made for the first time. Hearing what Yunyi said, she stretched out her chopsticks happily, and her brows frowned slightly, "It's not delicious. , It’s incomparable to those chefs in the Marshal’s Mansion.”

Yun Yi smiled and said, "They have been cooking for decades, and they have been specially trained. How can you, an amateur chef, compare with others? It is already very good to be able to do this. What's more, the dish just now The taste is really good, and it's not bad compared to those chefs make."

"Is it really that delicious?" Hearing Yunyi's compliment, Lin Moxue immediately beamed with joy.

Yun Yi nodded heavily, "Of course it's delicious, I finished it in one breath without looking at me."

While talking, the two finished the remaining plate of "Gypsophila" that was barely edible. It was just that they had been hungry for a whole day, so how could only two dishes be enough for two people.Seeing that neither of them was full, Yun Yi just smiled and said, "I've tasted what you made, so it's time for me to show my skills."

Lin Moxue knew that Yunyi's dishes were delicious. When she was in the Marshal's Mansion, Lin Moxue would often eat Yunyi's meals. This is why she had the idea of ​​learning to cook. Impact.

Turning around and walking into the kitchen, Yun Yi was about to make a move when he saw a lot of fried and charred vegetables thrown in the trash can next to him.Just thinking about it, he knew that this was definitely a masterpiece that Lin Moxue failed to make, but it was a pity to waste these vegetables and waste food, what a sin.

Taking out a few vegetables, radishes, and a piece of fish, Yun Yi quickly started, and in less than 10 minutes, a plate full of dishes exuding an attractive aroma was out of the pan.

After tasting the dishes made by Yunyi, Lin Moxue looked defeated, and smiled wryly, "It seems that I am really not suitable for cooking."

Yun Yi smiled and said, "Everyone has their own expertise, and only by finding the right industry can they play their own role. You let the chief engineer of the Weilong Group command the battle, or let Lan Tian drive the mecha to fight others, You will definitely fail in a mess. And your specialty is business management, and only in this aspect can you bring out your strengths. Cooking and the like can be handed over to those chefs, and you don’t have to bother about this kind of thing anymore.”

Hearing what Yunyi said, Lin Moxue felt a little relieved.

After tidying up the dishes, Yun Yi said goodbye and returned to her room.It's not that he doesn't want to stay, but that according to the customs of Chu and Tang, unmarried men and women cannot live together.Although this custom is rarely followed in this day and age, Yun Yi doesn't know if Lin Moxue is such a person, even if he feels lonely, he doesn't want to make Lin Moxue unhappy.

After today's incident, the relationship between Yunyi and Lin Moxue became even closer, they came and went as a pair, and they didn't even want to separate for a moment.

In this way, Yun Yi sometimes helped Lin Moxue handle affairs, and sometimes he went to research and design mechs by himself. In a blink of an eye, another half month passed.During this period of time, more and more warships gathered in this base. According to Lin Moxue, there are now more than ten fleets under Lin Jiaoyang's orders. Among them, those belonging to the Chu and Tang military are equipped with Wumu-class warships and There are as many as seven wargod-level mech fleets!

With so many fleets, Lin Jiaoyang's strength has far surpassed that of Qin Shou and Chu Xiujing, and he has become the strongest force that deserves it.

The increase in strength filled Lin Jiaoyang's heart with confidence. If it weren't for the fact that the agreement between the three parties to jointly fight against the New America was still in place, he might have been unable to bear it and killed Qin Shou.

On this day, Yunyi was continuing to design his mecha in the room, when there was a sudden knock on the door.Yunyi opened the door, and Lin Moxue said anxiously, "Come with me, the fleet is about to leave?"

Yunyi turned pale with shock, "Why are you leaving so suddenly, did something happen?"

Lin Moxue nodded, and said, "New America has assembled ten fleets with a total of 15 main fleets, and is approaching the Unicorn Fortress at high speed."
