The dejected generals of the vanguard, they had seen the 20 warships a long time ago, but they thought that the Patriarch would shoot another volley to destroy the last enemy, so they were very frustrated and did not react. But now that he heard the order from the Patriarch to destroy them by himself, he immediately refreshed, screaming and rushing towards the 20 strangely shaped warships. At the same time, these family generals also apologized to the Patriarch in their hearts, because they all cursed the Patriarch who ate alone just now, now that the Patriarch takes care of him so much, can he still curse him? So please apologize.
Just as the gang were excitedly jumping at the lambs in their hearts, Tang Long, who was far behind, stared at the screen with a heavy face, and his subordinates also showed panic expressions, while secretly peeking at Tang Long, While looking at the 20 warships on the screen. They did this mainly because when the 20 warships appeared on the screen, their protagonist suddenly jumped up excitedly and shouted: "How is it possible! How could the hive defense ships in the "War" game appear on the screen?" in reality?!"
These soldiers who have been trained in the game cabin certainly know the game "War" that the lord is talking about, but they have never seen the image of this kind of warship in the game. In fact, it's no wonder they don't know that the warship in their game is a model that Tang Long specially picked out from the game with similar functions to the X battleship. And the type of game he plays is also specially used for training, and he has no access to other types of warships in the game.
They don't know, but Tang Long knows very well that this kind of hive defense ship is specially designed to defend the star field in the game. In addition to being capable of cannons, this kind of battleship also has a 1000-degree protective cover, which can be said to be a small fortress.
Although as long as you choose this kind of warship to play in the game, you can know the structural information of this warship. But the armored cannon and the armored energy machine of this kind of warship are fictitious at all, and it is impossible to manufacture the battleship in the game in reality. Well, maybe this kind of warship was made by a munitions company that happened to be a game enthusiast. That is to say, this kind of warship only looks a bit like a hive defense ship, and it doesn't have such a strong force and defense at all.
Thinking of this, Tang Long heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing those high-level warships rushing forward, he was not too nervous, and even laughed at himself: "Hey, I'm so nervous, I'm so nervous when I see this kind of warship. The Patriarch suggested concentrating the energy of the shield on the bow and retreating the entire army. Hehe, fortunately, the Patriarch didn’t listen to everything, otherwise he would lose face.”
Speaking of this, Tang Long looked at the 20 cylindrical battleships on the screen and said with a smile: "The Caesars are really idiots, they actually bought this kind of warships to play, don't they have played games, don't know that imaginary things are impossible to realize Is it?" Speaking of this, Tang Long suddenly widened his eyes, yes, if that kind of warship is really waste, would the Caesars still buy it? The answer is of course impossible, so...these ships are...
Tang Long's suspicion was immediately confirmed by the scene on the screen. The densely packed honeycomb holes in the front of those strange warships arranged in a circle suddenly emitted white light from each hole. The light just came on, and immediately after that, laser beams shot at the high-level warships of the Tang family.
Although the Tang family's high-end battleships followed the Patriarch's order and concentrated the energy of the protective shields on the bow, the more than 200,000 laser beams rushing towards them quickly destroyed the protective shields. However, since these laser beams were fired at the same time, the shields of the high-level battleship and these beams died together, and the high-level battleship itself was not damaged.
The captains of the high-level battleships with flustered faces couldn't help but secretly rejoice after realizing this. The blow just now ended without him reacting at all. Fortunately, the protective cover was destroyed and the battleship was not damaged.
While rejoicing, they unanimously gave the order to turn around and flee. The protective cover is gone, and the enemy can kill him with a single shot. Wouldn't it be an idiot to escape now when the enemy re-stores energy
Donovan was still so shocked by the scene just now that he couldn't recover. He couldn't imagine that such a strange-shaped battleship could have such mighty firepower. When he received the report from the communication officer that the high-level warships had retreated without permission, and he hadn't responded yet, the 20 hive defense ships didn't take a long time to recharge their energy as everyone imagined, and it was only after the last shot In one minute, 200,000 laser beams once again pounced on those high-level battleships that had just turned around and fell halfway.
Donovan, with cold hands and feet, saw dozens of high-level warships being vaporized in an instant. He opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came out. His feet were so soft that he just wanted to sit down, but his body was out of control, so he could only stare blankly at the enemy's beams of light that hadn't dissipated after destroying the high-level warships and shot at him.
About 100,000 of the 200,000 light beams destroyed the Tang family's high-level warships, and the remaining 100,000 light beams still moved in a straight line according to inertia, heading straight for the remaining Tang family warships. Everyone who saw this scene looked ashen, there was no time to dodge at such a close distance, and they could only hope that the protective shield would be able to resist.
The rumbling sound was accompanied by violent shaking, and everyone in the battleship ahead was stumbling around, and the patriarch, Donovan, was no exception, being shaken to the ground. After the shock passed, everyone immediately realized that they were safe and sound, and the protective shields of the battleship blocked the stray bullets. Without waiting for the adjutant to remind him, Donovan got up and immediately ordered: "Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
After the Patriarch issued this order, all the spaceships immediately turned around and ran away, and Tang Long's rear line also became the front line at this moment.
Donovan turned his head to look at the 20 strange battleships still lined up near the Red Lion, shook his head and sighed, thinking, "How could the Caesars have such a warship? How can we solve this kind of warship? Well, It seems that the Caesars cannot be eliminated in the short term. Although I lost 50 high-level warships, the Caesars also lost at least a hundred warships. In this way, the Caesars will not be able to attack the Tang family for the time being, right? , wasted so much personnel money, just kept the same status as last time. Hmph! What X-rank battleships, they were driven back, but I want to buy a few more ships.” Thinking of this, Donovan decided not to buy any more. X Battleship, instead of buying the previous high-level battleships, you can buy several high-level battleships for the price of one X-ship.
But a report from his adjutant made Donovan change his mind immediately. The adjutant's report was about the wear and tear of the battleships after being attacked. Among them, after the X battleship was bombarded by the laser beams of those weird warships, there was no wear and tear at all except that the energy of the shield dropped a few degrees. After the other battleships were attacked, The energy of the shield is almost exhausted.
From this report, Donovan realized that the X battleships were of the same level as those weird warships. As long as he had X battleships with more firepower than them, he could kill these strange warships. "Well, that kind of battleship has 10,000 cannons, while the X battleship only has 3,000. In this case... I need at least seventy or eighty X battleships to destroy those 20 weird battleships. I don't know that the Caesars only have these 20 ships Or are there more? It seems that the spies need to search the information carefully. By the way, ask Chen Kang, see if he knows how much that kind of battleship costs, and its power should be more expensive than the X battleship. Trust Caesar The family can’t buy many ships. Well, what’s more, dozens of family generals were killed in this battle. Although a large number of fiefdoms can be recovered, there is a serious shortage of generals. How to solve this?” Knowing that you have a chance After destroying the battleship, Donovan, who regained his pride, began to think about the affairs of his territory.
When he saw that the hive defense ship fired the same firepower as in the game, Tang Long froze there because he couldn't believe that virtual things could become reality. But when he saw that it took a minute for that kind of warship to recharge its cannons, he couldn't help but smile cheerfully. Of course, he was secretly laughing while hiding from his subordinates, otherwise they would think that he was insane when they saw it, because he was still laughing after so many of his own people died! What is not madness
When Tang Long was driving the transport ship, with a group of defeated soldiers behind him, running towards Zhongzhou Star, Chen Kang's communication request suddenly appeared on the correspondent's computer.
Although Tang Long wondered why Chen Kang was communicating with him at this time, he also quickly connected through the communication. After all, Tang Long also wanted to ask this powerful arms dealer if he knew about the imitation of warships in the "War" game.
Chen Kang looked nervous on the screen. When he saw Tang Long, he didn't greet Tang Long as usual, but said directly: "You encountered a strange warship in Red Lion, didn't you?"
"Wow, why are you so well informed? Are those warships products of your company?" Tang Long's eyes widened in surprise.
Chen Kang didn't answer what Tang Long said earlier, but just shook his head and smiled wryly, "If it was my company's product, I wouldn't be in such a hurry to ask you about the situation, can you tell me what you think about that kind of warship?" ?”
Seeing Chen Kang's tense look, Tang Long couldn't help laughing: "Impressions? Hehe, it's just a battleship made by fans of the game "War" that looks like a beehive defense ship. Although it looks very similar, its function is not It’s as perfect as it looks in the game. After all, the important equipment of that kind of warship cannot be manufactured in reality.”
Chen Kang was taken aback: "The "War" game? Hive defense ship? You mean that kind of battleship is the virtual battleship in the "War" game?!"
"That's right, you can tell just by looking at it. Haven't you played the game "War"?" Tang Long looked at Chen Kang incredulously.
Chen Kang shook his head, he was running around all day, how could he have time to play the game "War". Chen Kang keenly noticed from Tang Long's words that Tang Long didn't care about those hive warships, and regretfully said that those warships were not perfect. Why did Tang Long think that those warships were not perfect? I was very shocked when I saw the power of the battleship from the video sent by my subordinates. So Chen Kang asked Tang Long with a smile: "You said those warships are not perfect, so what is the method of imperfection? Is there any way to break through their defense line?"
Tang Long glanced at Chen Kang and said with a smile: "Hehe, start collecting intelligence on your competitors. Okay, no kidding, the reason why I say that the hive battleship is not perfect is because it takes about 1 minute to fire every time it is launched." Time recharges the energy."
Chen Kang interjected puzzledly: "This is normal. Cannons need a certain amount of time to recharge. Like the salvo of ten thousand cannons, it only takes one minute to recharge, which is already very fast."
Tang Long shook his fingers and said, "So you have never played a war game, let me tell you, the hive defense ship in the game does not need the time to recharge the energy of the cannon at all, the hive defense ship in the game can continuously fire laser beams , will not stop until the stored energy is exhausted. That's why I say those battleships are not perfect."
"Uh...how long can the energy of the hive battleships in that game be enough for him to fire a volley?" Chen Kang swallowed and asked. Although he had never played war games, he knew that war games were set according to real technology, that is, Said that he knew very well that the functions of warships in war games can be fully reflected in reality. If that kind of hive warship can shoot without stopping, I believe that no one can break through their defense.
Tang Long thought for a while and said: "Well, there are many cannons, and they consume a lot of energy. If he manufactures them completely according to the settings in the game, the energy in his inventory can be fired about a thousand times."
Hearing these words, Chen Kang frowned and thought, "Ten thousand cannons can shoot a thousand times in a row? Damn, it's even more powerful than a war fortress. If they were to transform that kind of warship to match the game settings, who would buy it?" Other warships! Isn’t our company going to drink the northwest wind? Fortunately, their current technological capabilities cannot create perfect warships. It seems that they have to submit a proposal to the general manager to try to manufacture the warships in the "War" game. .They can make it, so should we!"
Thinking of this, Chen Kang suddenly remembered that Tang Long was a game fan, so he should know the disadvantages of that hive battleship, right? So he hurriedly asked: "I don't know if there is any way to destroy these hive warships in the game? Wouldn't it be to wait for his stockpile energy to run out before rushing up?"
Tang Long shook his head and said: "How can such an idiotic method be used? You must know that in the game, energy supply ships are usually equipped behind the hive battleships. The stored energy is full before it is used up. There is no possibility of running out of energy! The only best way to destroy them in the game is to use the giant gunship, and use the giant gunboat to bombard the hive defense ship outside the range of the hive defense ship. In addition, any battleship and the hive defense ship are courting death!"
Chen Kang nodded with bright eyes. He knew that there was a kind of warship that could destroy the hive warship. As for the function of the giant gunship, he didn't ask Tang Long, because the information in the game "War" must be more detailed than what Tang Long said, just go in the game and read it.
Seeing Chen Kang's bright eyes, Tang Long couldn't help laughing inwardly, because he had already figured out a way to destroy those imperfect hive defense ships without a giant gunboat. Neither the Patriarch nor Chen Kang discovered this method, because their minds have been imprisoned by habits and cannot broaden their minds.
Of course, Tang Long would not offer advice to the Patriarch, and he wished that those hive defense ships would consume more of the Tang family's troops. And he didn't tell Chen Kang because he was afraid that Chen Kang would tell the Patriarch these methods. Tang Longhui began to guard against Chen Kang. Apart from the computer sister's warning, it was because Tang Long felt that the owner of the house was Chen Kang's big customer, and he was just a small customer. If there was anything, Chen Kang would definitely help the big customer.
"By the way, the ape-men you want will be delivered in another month. I hope you will be prepared to avoid chaos. You know, there are more than ten million ape-men." Chen Kang said with a smile.
Tang Long frowned. Originally he wanted so many ape-mans because he thought he could increase the fief soon, but now not only was he appointed as a guard, but the Tang family also suffered a big defeat, so there was no possibility of increasing the fief. Is it possible to let go of more than 10 million ape-men with such a small fief
Seeing Tang Long's frown, Chen Kang certainly knew what Tang Long was worried about, so he said with a smile: "Well, your fief can't accommodate so many ape-men, I'll send a million battleship ape-man soldiers here first, When your fief expands, I will send other ape-men here."
Tang Long immediately laughed and said, "It would be great if that's the case. By the way, how many warships do I need to buy to arm these one million ape-men?"
Chen Kang was stunned for a moment, he wanted to tell Tang Long not to be so rampant, otherwise the Patriarch would kill you, but thinking about it, the Patriarch has already tabooed Tang Long, if Tang Long can't have a strong force in a short time, who knows that Patriarch will not Would he just find a reason to kill Tang Long? Thinking of this, Chen Kang still thought that Tang Long should increase his armaments, so he thought for a while and said: "If you count X-level warships, you need 200 ships. But you don't need to buy so many at once, lest the owner hate you , only 50 ships are needed.” Chen Kang was afraid that Tang Long would buy him 200 ships at once, and the warships would be wiped out by the owner before they could be equipped.
"Okay, then 50 ships... er... no, just 20 ships will do." Tang Long suddenly changed his words because he calculated that buying 50 X battleships would cost 1 trillion Wulai coins! I don't have that much money at all, and the money in my bank card can only buy 20 ships. As for the 500 billion Tanglong in Yuna's bank card, it will not be moved. It is the cost of building his own territory. Of course, he knows the importance of territory construction.
When Chen Kang heard Tang Long's words, he knew that he didn't have enough banknotes, and he also knew very well that Tang Long didn't want to pay on credit, so he just nodded and said, "Okay, 20 X battleships, 400 high-level ships full of supplies. The transport ship, how about sending these goods along with those armed ape-men? It can be delivered in two weeks." Speaking of this, Chen Kang suddenly remembered something and said: "Oh, by the way, your energy supply base has been built , the energy ammunition you ordered last time has been put into it. At the same time, in order to allow you to store more ammunition in the future, this supply base has been expanded by more than ten times than the original setting. I will pass on the address and base password to you. Go and see for yourself."
"Oh, thank you." Tang Long nodded with a wry smile, because after paying the balance of the supply base and those energy ammunition, his purse was completely empty. Tang Long used to be very anxious about the supply base, but now he owns 440 high-level supply ships, so much energy ammunition is enough for his 23 X-class warships for a year or two, and the supply base is only in Tang Long's mind. become less important. So Tang Long casually transferred the address and password of the supply base to Yuna of Zhongzhou Star and ignored it.
At this moment, Chen Kang seemed to have received some communication. He looked down and immediately smiled at Tang Long: "I'm sorry, your Patriarch has called. It seems that he also needs to increase his military equipment."
Tang Long smiled and waved to Chen Kang: "That's it, I wish you a fortune."
Chen Kang nodded, said thank you, and closed the communication.
Tang Long, who was sitting on the chair with his hands on his mother's chest, no longer had the smiling expression on his face, but a pensive expression. People close to him may hear him muttering non-stop: "One million people, one million people, how to house them? Well, a large area of housing and other supporting facilities will be built again, but there are only two How much can you build in a week?"
Tang Long muttered to this, and suddenly jumped up in panic and shouted: "Oops! I actually forgot to tell Yuna and the others about the ape-man! It's terrible! Will they scold me for my own way?" At this time Tang Long deeply complained about his character of doing what he thinks and forgetting when he does it. He asked Chen Kang to send so many apes, but he forgot to discuss it with his subordinates. What a failure!
Hearing Tang Long's words, the female soldiers of SK23 Company were fine, but the soldiers in the territory looked at Tang Long in surprise. What's wrong with my master? How could he be afraid that his retainers would scold him? Could there be such a bold retainer
The Tang family's fleet returned to Zhongzhou Star in disgrace. The vassals who were planning to welcome the Patriarch's triumphant return knew something was wrong when they saw the faces of the combatants. They immediately took away the celebration items and began to follow silently with their heads down. behind the queue. And the family members of the generals and soldiers who died in the battle found that there were no relatives in the returning team, and they couldn't help crying bitterly. They all knew that their relatives had disappeared. The family members of those generals cried the loudest and the most, because their heavens disappeared. According to the rules of the Tang family, after the death of a retainer who owned a fief without a son, the fief should be taken back. The original lord of Tang Long's fief was killed by father, son and elder brother together.
At the beginning, no one paid attention to this family rule, and everyone thought it was very appropriate. Of course, if you have no heirs, the fief will be taken back. Isn't it a waste of time. However, when this family rule is combined with another family rule, it becomes a means for the head of the family to take back the fief in disguise.
Another family rule is that heirs without military exploits are not allowed to inherit the fief. This family rule requires all retainers who have fiefs to bring their sons with them every time they go to war. Therefore, if these retainers die, their sons will also die. Of course, there are also some smart retainers who, after leading their sons to perform a meritorious service, let his sons stay at home as a precaution. However, due to the low military exploits of these retainers, the inheritance of fiefdoms will be reduced by more than half. Most of these crying retainer families were crying because their fiefdoms were halved.
Donovan was annoyed by these cries, and did not hold a post-war review meeting. After disbanding the troops, he quickly hid in his Patriarch's Mansion. Seeing that no one was looking after him, Tang Long immediately ran back to his fief, ready to explain to Yuna and the others why he had not told them why he bought so many ape-men so late.
"More than 10 million ape-men? How can we arrange so many? It requires a lot of money." Yuna frowned after listening to Tang Long explain the process of purchasing ape-men, and at the same time glanced at Tang Long.
Although Yuna knew that the lord bought them because of pity for those apes, she was annoyed at the lord and didn't think that this territory could not accommodate so many people. Moreover, the funds to feed so many ape-men are in a large deficit, and the economy of the territory that has just improved a bit may be eaten up by these ape-men! But Yuna didn't blame Tang Long for this either. First, she didn't think she was qualified, and second, she couldn't bear to blame Tang Long. She has a feeling of loving a younger brother to Tang Long, a guy who is five or six years younger than herself.
Yuna's deputy, on the other hand, worriedly calculated how much the more than 10 million ape-men would spend a day. For this meeting, Tang Long not only summoned Yuna and the others, but also their deputies. Tang Long believed that they were part of his power and were qualified to attend such a meeting.
Feeling Yuna's gaze, Tang Long hurriedly lowered his head to look at his toes.
Ling Li, who took out the map and pointed to a place, sighed and said, "Oh, there are only a few open spaces left in our territory. This open space can only accommodate a million people, and the rest Where are we going? Our territory is really too small." The deputy behind Ling Li also frowned and nodded, they were really worried about how to accommodate more than 10 million people in such a small area.
Tang Long, who lowered his head, smiled and flattered immediately when he heard this: "Ten million ape-men will not be sent here all at once, the first batch will only have one million warship soldiers, ape-men, just build a few barracks for them. Ah, the ape-men will be here in two weeks."
Elsie immediately jumped up and said, "It will be delivered in two weeks? You think I'm a god, how could it be possible to build a barracks for one million people in two weeks!" The expressions of the two assistants behind Elsie Looking at Elsie worriedly, they didn't expect their boss to be so rude to the lord, and what made them even more unexpected was what Tang Long would do next.
"Hehe, I don't want to either. Big sister, please bear with me. I believe you can find a way." Tang Long hurriedly nodded and bowed to Elsie.
Seeing Tang Long's fawning expression, all the deputies were surprised. At first they thought that these beautiful bosses were the lord's lovers, but the lord never came to see them except for business. Instead, they were his assistants who accompanied the beauties all day long. Why is the lord so ingratiating? Although I was surprised that the lord bought so many ape-men, I was just surprised and didn't dare to think that the lord did something wrong. Why does the beautiful boss think so? And there seems to be a feeling of complaint in the tone? Well, I really don't understand the relationship between the protagonist and these beautiful bosses.
"Battleship soldiers ape-men? My lord, can these ape-men all be able to drive battleships?" Li Wu asked curiously.
Tang Long, who was still flattering Elsie, immediately turned his head and smiled at Li Wu: "That's right, that's right, they all have undergone battleship training, and they can pilot a battleship after a little familiarity. They bought 20 Tier X battleships and 400 transport ships."
Hearing Tang Long's words, everyone was stunned, because Tang Long bought 20 X-rank warships at once, and the armaments already exceeded the sum of the armaments of the Patriarch and Deputy Patriarch. I'm afraid the Patriarch won't tolerate his subordinates being stronger than himself, right? As for the 400 advanced transport ships, Yuna and the others certainly knew that they were additional gifts for purchasing warships.
And the assistants all looked at Tang Long with bright eyes, because if the lord is powerful, his retainers will also rise with the tide. These people have been educated to be loyal to the lord since they were young, not to the patriarch, so even if Tang Long rebelled, they would follow Tang Long. However, if Tang Long's power is too weak to fight against the Patriarch, I believe that there will not be many defectors.
"My lord, with so many military-trained apes entering the territory, the law and order in the territory may be very serious." Sally saw that the eyes of the retainers were not quite right, and hurriedly changed the subject. She was afraid that these retainers thought that Tang Long was going to rebel, but she didn't expect that these retainers with fiery and ambitious eyes wanted Tang Long to rebel so that she could gain a higher status.
Peng Wenfeng nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, my lord, there are only about 10,000 policemen in the territory. After those ape-men come in, this number of people is not enough at all."
Tang Long waved his hand and said: "It's okay, these trained ape-men must have the qualities of soldiers, don't be afraid that they will disturb the law and order. Ah, by the way, you have to find a way to let the people understand that the ape-men are the same as them and cannot Look at these ape-men with superior eyes. If I find someone who despises ape-men, I will make him look good!" Speaking of this, Tang Long's eyes showed a cold light, which made the hearts of the retainers who saw this look jump, and their hearts were full of fear. Thinking to himself: "Hey, it turns out that the master who looks like a pug dog is so scary once he becomes majestic!"
Although many retainers didn't take Tang Long's words seriously, because they all knew that ape-man was a low-level creature, how could it be possible for him to be on an equal footing with humans? But seeing that the beautiful bosses have no objections, and thinking of Tang Long's uncompromising and extremely authoritarian character, he can only swallow his saliva and say nothing. Anyway, they think that the common people are the ones who are equal, and it has nothing to do with officials and lords like themselves. Because if the officials and lords like me are also equal to the ape-man, doesn't that mean that I am equal to the lord? It is impossible for things like this to disrupt social order and reverse ranks.
