Although only the captain and chief mate have the original energy converter, the other crew members in the fleet all have the original body.
In fact, just like the officers and soldiers assigned to the expeditionary force, these crew members were all volunteers recruited by the Yu family from various colonial galaxies after the outbreak of the war. However, because of the different levels of the original body, they were arranged in different positions. Volunteers with the highest level of the original body were incorporated into the expeditionary army, the best became officers, and the others were soldiers. The original body level almost joined the Yujia private forces, some served on the battleship, and some became security personnel. The worst was assigned to each transport spacecraft, and only after being the captain and chief mate to get the small primary energy converter. As for those volunteers who are not Primarchs, they are assigned to other industries, mainly to work in factories, or to other civilizations, or to work on the spacecraft on the rear route.
Of course, the original level of these crew members is not high. Even the fifteen captains are only level 8 originals, and the fifteen first mates are only level 6 originals, and ordinary crew members are generally level 3 originals, and there are only a few. One reaches level four and five. Obviously, even if they were equipped with small power converters, their combat effectiveness would not be much stronger. On the battlefield, it’s not bad to be a burden to other soldiers.
Fortunately, this is not a big problem.
Without much effort, Yang Yi and Lin Feng, as well as fifteen captains and fifteen chief mates, let the other crew members master the method of controlling and using the small power converter. In fact, these crew members have received basic training, but lack practical operation, that is, they have never used a small power converter.
Of course, in such a short period of time, it is impossible to improve the crew's original body level.
However, this is not necessary.
After letting the crew master the use of the small original energy converter, Yang Yi gave them some time to practice, and he and Lin Feng went to the cargo hold.
The lead spacecraft carries space fighters, and it is the latest batch of space fighters.
Before departure, Yu Linglong told Yang Yi that according to his requirements, this batch of space fighters adopted the latest standard, that is, equipped with an independent drive system. It is only because of the capacity limitation of small primary energy converters, and the small primary energy converters above the S-level level have not yet been mass-produced, so there is no separate small primary energy converter for the time being. It is necessary to wait until the production capacity of the small primary energy converter After going up, refitting. Of course, at that time, you only need to install a separate small power converter for these space fighters, and it can be done on the front line without sending it back to the rear. In other respects, these space fighters are nothing special.
The key is that these space fighters are equipped with space jumping devices.
Although they are all small space jumping devices, and limited by the energy system, the jumping distance is very short, no more than a hundred light years at most, but as long as they are equipped with a separate small primitive energy converter, these space fighters have little ability for the driver. High requirements, even ordinary people, as long as they master the driving skills, can drive these space fighters to jump in space, but they cannot fully display the combat power of the space fighters.
Of course, this is not a problem, because Yang Yi did not let the crew fly a space fighter to fight the enemy.
Although Yang Yi did not possess as many small power converters as used to arm two hundred legions, it was obviously more than enough to equip one for each of 150 space fighters. When Yang Yi and Lin Feng went to the cargo compartment, they installed separate small power converters for one hundred and fifty space fighters.
Subsequently, Yang Yi arranged tasks for one hundred and fifty crew members.
It’s very simple. Take the spacecraft as a unit, with two crew members as a team. After the spacecraft arrives at the predetermined location, drive a space fighter to explore nearby celestial bodies within 100 light-years to determine the condition of the celestial bodies. The main thing is whether there is any damage. To the earth dragon invasion.
As for the spacecraft’s search area, arrangements are made based on the known starry sky map.
Of course, these things were arranged by Lin Feng, and Yang Yi didn't worry about it.
Later, Yang Yi and Lin Feng also spent some experience, letting the crew master the piloting skills of space fighters, but they were just basic skills. The point is that the time is too short to allow the crew to complete all training. However, this is not necessary, because these space fighters have autopilot equipment and can fly according to pre-set routes. The driver is only required to operate in the event of an accident. Therefore, the crew needs to know only after the accident. , The method of driving the space fighter back to the spacecraft. Although it can't be foolproof, it's better than not knowing what to do then, at least there is more hope of survival.
After making preparations, each of the fifteen spacecrafts activated their space jumping devices.
Yang Yi only made arrangements for one day, that is, after one day, no matter what they found, all fifteen spaceships had to return, and then go to the next military fortress. To this end, Yang Yi especially urged the fifteen captains to keep in touch with the space fighters sent out when arranging operations. In the event of an accident, trouble that cannot be solved, or an enemy, you must report the situation in time.
Of course, Yang Yi and Lin Feng did not participate in the search operation, and both stayed behind.
Nominally, the two are the back-ups of fifteen spaceships.
However, both Yang Yi and Lin Feng knew that if the enemy was still nearby, even if they tried their best, they would not be able to support 15 spaceships at the same time.
Obviously, the key to security is confidentiality.
For this reason, Yang Yi clearly mentioned that no matter what is found, no communication is allowed. Communication equipment can only be used when attacked by the enemy. Of course, Yang Yi did not forget to tell the captains that even if they sent out a signal for help, they might not be able to get assistance. However, Yang Yi gave the captain limited autonomy, that is, if the spacecraft is attacked and the enemy is too strong, the captain can decide whether to return. Simply put, if it is to protect the crew, then the captain can decide to return. Yang Yi's arrangement is not that he does not need the crew to go all out, but that he does not want to expose his whereabouts, because the enemy may not destroy the spacecraft, and it is very likely to track the spacecraft.
When the fifteen spaceships left one after another, Yang Yi took him out of the home star system after killing Wanluo and went to the home planet of the Polar Clan, and later he went to the Alliance Star to find Mendozo and the Mason clan home star. And when he returned to the homeland galaxy, those things that happened in Yujia were told to Lin Feng.
Until this time, Lin Feng did not know why Yang Yi went to the Northern Alpha Galaxy.
Of course, Lin Feng didn't blame Yang Yi, because she knew that Yang Yi didn't tell her before that he wanted to protect her and didn't want her to worry about these things. In addition, Lin Feng also knows herself, because before that, she had been under too much pressure for the tragic experience of the Lin family. If she could understand it earlier and come out of self-blame, Yang Yi would definitely not hide it from her, and would have told her these things a long time ago.
In fact, Lin Feng wanted to go to the fortress invaded by the earth dragon even more.
However, Yang Yi felt that it was unnecessary.
One day passed quickly, and Yang Yi and Lin Feng were also very anxious.
Because there was no communication, Yang Yi and Lin Feng didn't know what the fifteen spacecraft found and what trouble they encountered. It's just that the best news is that no news has been received in the past day, at least it means that no spacecraft has returned.
But, who can be sure
If the enemy is nearby, and has known the whereabouts of these spaceships, at least made a judgment in advance, and then launches a surprise attack, then I am afraid that no spaceship can send out a message before being destroyed by the enemy. You know, these are fast spaceships, not battleships, and have no combat effectiveness at all. Not to mention the powerful existence of the ghost king, even if it is just a silicon charm battleship, it can destroy these spaceships.
When the first spacecraft returned, Yang Yi and Lin Feng were secretly relieved.
Within the next half of the disappearance, the other fourteen spacecraft returned one after another, and the space fighters sent out for reconnaissance missions were all intact.
This is also the only good news.
After the warships reported the reconnaissance results, Yang Yi and Lin Feng were very heavy, because Yang Yi's guess was confirmed.
Fifteen spacecraft searched the relatively concentrated areas of fifteen large celestial bodies within 1,500 light-years. Those large celestial bodies marked on the star chart have either been invaded by earth dragons or have disappeared, even some. The small celestial bodies are gone. Although the search area is pitifully small compared to the Greenwich Meteor Belt, there are enough reasons to believe that the large celestial bodies in the Greenwich Meteor Belt may all be the same. More importantly, it must be the Silicon Magic Alliance that destroyed these large celestial bodies. To put it bluntly, the Phantom Ghost Emperor is using this method to turn the Greenwich meteorite belt into a vacuum zone, an insurmountable sky moat.
Maybe, the ghost king is not far from success.
Now how to do
Yang Yi did not consider this issue, but gathered the fifteen captains together and explained the situation to them.
"Obviously, we can no longer return to the voyage." Yang Yi sighed and said, "Although we can return to the military stronghold in the rear from here, after getting there, because the space node disappears, we will not be able to carry out up to a thousand. Many light-years of space jump. In other words, we will get lost in space, even if we can return to the southern Alpha galaxy one day in the future, it will be a long time later. All we can do now is to move on and go to the northern Alpha galaxy, and The expeditionary army rendezvous with the Star Weaver Legion. I know that you may not accept this result, but you can only accept it, and you have to do a good job of thinking for the crew. I cannot guarantee that I can send you home someday in the future, but I can I promise that as long as I am still alive, I will fight for you to go home. Before departure, we will contact the rear, and this is the last contact after we reach the Northern Alpha Galaxy. Anything you want to say to your family, please Think about it as soon as possible. Next, we will continue to jump in space without staying there anymore."
No one asked questions, because everyone's heart was heavy.
Awaiting Yang Yi and the others is the Simei army, a battle of disparity in strength, and an outcome that no one can predict.
