Saya memiliki Mansion di Dunia Pasca-apokaliptik - Chapter 1107 - Taikan Kyohosyugi and Carrier Battle Group

Taikan Kyohosyugi: The principle of big ships and big guns, a naval tactics used by the Japanese in the Second World War where achieving victory would be dependent upon the effective use of a strong battleship force.

—

At the main axis area of the space elevator was the gravity-free section of Celestial City and the port of the city. Since the launch of the asteroid mining program, countless small and medium-sized transport vessels docked against the port, as they waited for the robotic arms to load and unload the ores inside the containers.

In addition to the transport vessels that carried ores, a passenger ship shaped like a cuboid occasionally flew out from the transfer station and headed for the Moon. Since Celestial Trade announced regular flights between Earth and the Moon, travel between Lunar City and Earth became much more frequent.

The size of Lunar City had expanded significantly compared to before. Living units circled the central square, connected by graphene pipes. A total of nearly 10,000 people called this place home, and most of them were part of the young labor force with high education levels.

To meet the needs of the citizens, Celestial Trade also built an elementary school, a junior high school, a senior high school, a community college, a hospital, a police station and other municipal facilities around the central square. Celestial Trade also opened bids for the construction of hotels, bars, cafes, and other entertainment facilities.

In addition to the resident population, at least 4,000 passengers traveled between Lunar City and Celestial City daily. These people included immigrants to the Moon, tourists, or investors looking for opportunities.

A series of electrolysis chambers and lunar ice drilling exploratory wells were constructed to produce a steady stream of oxygen and hydrogen for the colony. The rare earth mining stations with robotic arms and a lunar refinery that produced helium-3 supported the economy and industry of Lunar City.

Sixty percent of the world’s iron and aluminum mines and eighty percent of rare earth mines were connected by the 36,000-kilometer elevators.

It was precisely because of this that there was the 50% defense tax which made the capitalists in the Western Hemisphere ache in pain.

The decision was a blow right to their chest, and they were forced to be labeled as “scared”…

In the lift cabin of the space elevator, Wu Changfeng stood quietly at the window and looked out at the dark-colored mega-ship.

“SS Seagull”—a name not unfamiliar to anyone. The ship equipped with the Red River X1 engine was personally named by Jiang Chen. It was the first 500,000-ton ship of Celestial Trade and the first interstellar ship of the Earth civilization. Since then, any 500,000-ton ship produced by Celestial Trade was named after the Seagull-class.

The 600-meter-long hull was connected to the main axis of the elevator by a cantilever. It looked massive from the distance and made the spacecraft moving around it look so insignificant.

In the eyes of Wu Changfeng, the size of the Seagull-class transport ship was already large enough. It was at least the size of three aircraft carriers connected together. However, even a mighty ship this size couldn’t serve as the main force in the fight against Harmony.

He couldn’t help but feel concerned about the future of Earth.

What kind of enemy are we facing?

“What are you looking at?” Lu Hao walked beside him and smiled.

Lu Hao, the former Captain of the Nanning Destroyer, ranked Admiral. He served as a representative on the Hua side.

Wu Changfeng turned his head as his colleague started to chat with him, he was about to say something, but when his eyes stopped on his arm, he swallowed his words.

Lu Hao saw the message in Wu Changfeng’s eyes. He sighed, helplessly lifted up his sleeve, and showed him the needle hole on his arm.

“You also injected?” Wu Changfeng raised an eyebrow. While his expression didn’t change, the caution in his mind gradually disappeared.

“Do you think that if I didn’t inject that, they would let us go so easily?” Lu Hao helplessly lowered his sleeve again.

Wu Changfeng frowned and quickly understood what he meant.

A smile formed on the expressionless face as he whispered.

“We haven’t heard of any DNA telomere-modified serum and haven’t injected anything.”

“Of course. You didn’t think I would’ve written that in the report?” Lu Hao laughed and shook his head. “I’m not that stupid. It would’ve definitely caused us trouble.”

Wu Changfeng nodded.

Hua had two seats in the Earth Defense Alliance Committee. What he worried about most previously was that Lu Hao would hand it over to the country.

If that was the case, he would undoubtedly lose the trust of the organization and even cause some important people to be unhappy. With the state’s influence on the Earth Defense Alliance, he might be sacked from his position.

But based on what happened, he seemed to have worried too much.

No one could reject the temptation to “live forever”, especially for people like them.

“Do you think we have hopes of winning this war?” Luo Hao said as he looked at the Seagull-class transport ship outside the window.

Wu Changfeng, glanced at his colleague, then quietly said, “I have no doubt that we’ll win.”

“General Wu is indeed from a political background; your way with words is so beautiful.” Lu Hao forced out a laugh awkwardly.

Wu Changfeng raised his eyebrows and just wanted to say: “Worrying about what will happen after defeat isn’t what soldiers should do,” but this sentence didn’t come out in the end.

If it was before, he could say this as a soldier without any scruples. Considering the short life of humans, he wouldn’t see the day when the first battle with the extraterrestrial civilization. However, his life was extended by more than eighty years now. If technology continued to progress, perhaps his life would continue to be prolonged.

On the day of the final battle, there would certainly be a chance to witness that scene with their own eyes…

“In your opinion, what is our chance of winning?” Wu Changfeng asked.

“Less than 30%.”

“Oh?” Wu Changfeng raised an eyebrow and laughed. “We still have 30%?”

“Maybe it’s an occupational disease.” Lu Hao shrugged. “Now the Earth Defense Alliance is showing signs of favoring big ships, which makes me very worried.”

“Then in your opinion, what route should we take?” Wu Changfeng asked.

Lu Hao smiled. “Don’t forget that I used to be on the destroyer. I naturally prefer the use of carrier battle groups. The high-mobility destroyer can divide the battlefield then the carrier deploys planes to attack the opponent’s weakness…”

“What if the artillery of our ‘destroyer’ isn’t enough to break the defense of the enemy?” Wu Changfeng raised a sharp question.

Silenced ensued for a long time, then there was a response. “That’s why we’re all outsiders.”

The doctrine of the modern navy could serve as the theoretical basis for the future Starfleet, but after all, the ocean and the universe were two distinct fields, and everything was still in the exploration stage.

“I believe in you.” Wu Changfeng patted Lu Hao’s shoulder and grinned. “By the time we select the commander, I’ll vote for you.”

“Haha, then I will thank you now.”

The space elevator gradually approached the gravity-free section, and the SS Seagull from a distant outline was now in front of their eyes.

However, Wu Changfeng suddenly noticed on the “bridge” between the SS Seagull and the space elevator, a team of soldiers in kinetic skeletons were boarding the ship.

“What are they doing?” Wu Changfeng frowned.

Lu Hao took a few steps forward. The tip of his nose was almost touching the window, and a frown also emerged on his face.

“Orbital Airborne Troops? Is it a military exercise? If my memory is correct, Celestial Trade hasn’t been fighting anyone lately…”

While talking, the transport cabin carrying soldiers was loaded onto the SS Seagull. The robotic arm that clamped the SS Seagull separated from the hull. The engine began to ignite and pushed the giant vessel outwards.

Just as the two of them wondered where the SS Seagull would set sail, the lift cabin they were in entered the orbit of the space elevator. They could only watch Celestial City and the SS Seagull accelerate away from them…
