Start with Planetary Governor

Chapter 460, cruiser technology!

It didn't take long, only half a year later, Gu Hang was able to see in the [vassals] interface that the vassal levels of those worlds that had signed the "Seven Horses Economic Union Act" were rapidly increasing.

The vassal level has nothing to do with the economic level and development level of the planet. It purely reflects the relationship between this world and the 'sovereign country' of the Alliance.

Under the framework of the Seven Horses Agreement, the seventy-nine worlds except the Pegasus Sector are basically LV2 and LV3. This level is basically stable or unstable and in a vassal state. It's enough to be able to draw some blood from the alliance. The imperial tax is a special situation in a special period.

But it's different when you reach LV4 and up.

LV4 symbolizes that the vassal's economic, political and military dependence has greatly increased, and the entire world has almost no will to resist. The sovereign state can begin to manage and dispose of the world through some direct means.

When reaching LV5, it means direct annexation, and there will be no turmoil within the world. On the contrary, the people of these worlds have a very strong sense of belonging to the suzerain country. They think that they are part of the suzerain country, so it will naturally happen. There is a strong centripetal force.

Of course, this does not mean that vassals can be annexed at will after reaching LV5. This level is only about the inside of the vassal world. How the outside will view it is another matter.

The vassal level is increasing, which means that the alliance government did not lie to him with false claims. In response to the situation, just like the report submitted by Oceana, it is developing smoothly.

The increase in the vassal level of these planets also brings more income from gift points.

Although, it's only two thousand, which doesn't seem like much. But in fact, during this period, the development of the entire alliance has increased from 3.6 to 3.7, which is only an increase of one thousand.

In this part, a special character must also be mentioned: Salas Martins.

But this 'treasure house' still cannot be unearthed at present.

But as for the current gift of 1.2 million, Gu Hang has to spend it now.

Except for some emergencies, Gu Hang plans to spend one million this time.

But this time, Gu Hang saw his options presented.

[Level: lv7]

This reward is still very high.

In terms of personal strength, although he was forced into the position of team leader, he is at least as good as a regular company champion; in terms of team command, he is even better than his personal strength.

But now that he appeared, Gu Hang casually gave him some enlightenment.

Especially battleships.

This is despite the immigration of hundreds of millions of people and the rapid development of the alliance's military industry and shipbuilding industry.

He once thought that the level of Space Marines could only be improved by using the special training function of Space Marines after the end of the previous Phoenix event chain. But that thing can only be promoted to the level of company championship at most, and that is definitely not enough.

Of course, the latter was improved by Gu Hanghua's gift points to her.

It has been eight months since this war started. The scale of the war is large and the intensity of the war is cruel. Previously, Gu Hang thought that the rewards given in the Battle of Temir were almost at the level of the Battle of Steel Wing Star, which was probably one million gift points. But now it seems that the scale of the Temir Battle is much larger than that of Steel Wing Star. The key is that it has lasted for such a long time, and will continue to continue in the future visible to the naked eye.

But before that, Gu Hang had never found him in the [Hero] interface.

Gu Hang now has a total of more than 1.2 million gift points on hand.

After this battle is over, it will not be as simple as one million.

As usual, half a million in staffing. The enlightenment of the [Hero] interface provides a wave of enlightenment to government officials, diplomats, and military officers. A person has ten points of gifts. After clicking them, these people have greater potential for progress, and they can upgrade themselves.

Gu Hang guessed that it might be much more difficult for space warriors to appear in the [Heroes] interface than for normal mortals. After Martins defeated the leader of the Ashes Dead War Gang, Zhong Jihua, it was considered a personal sublimation for him, and only then did his name appear in the [Heroes] interface.

three million? four million?
If the Battle of Temir is not won, then not only will the situation deteriorate, but the excess gift points may also be wasted.

However, the overall base is not large, which means that the monthly points given by the vassal have quickly increased from about 4,000 points to 6,000 points.

Normally, Gu Hang doesn't have to worry about level ups. After they have accumulated enough experience and achieved enough results in the projects they are good at, they can level up. But the rarity of the card represents potential. The 'heroes' will also improve themselves in this aspect, but very slowly.

The income from these gift points is, on the one hand, the improvement brought about by the development of productivity; on the other hand, it is the increase in the proportion of gift rewards after the vassal level is improved.

As for Gu Hang, he actually has a bigger 'treasure trove' waiting to be unlocked: the Battle of Temir, and the Orc War that has now expanded to two star regions.

Forget it for others.

Up to now, it has been a year since the Battle of Steel Wing Star ended.

It won't lay eggs if you keep it in your hand.

Don't underestimate this number.

Forget it for others, Gu Hang can wait slowly. But Oceana, her position is too important, she is the number one figure in the alliance government. Gu Hang really couldn't wait for her to gradually increase the rarity, so he simply spent the gift points to get her from SR to SSR.

For example, Oceana was only at level one when she was first enlightened by Gu Hang, and she was still the most common 'N' card. But now, she is already a sixth-level administrative officer, and the attribute of the card has also changed to SSR, which has been promoted to three levels.

Gu Hang was still looking forward to what the first space warrior hero would be like.

Even if Phoenix's chapter leader doesn't need enlightenment, his level is actually quite good.

Although the scale of Ashes of the Dead is not large, the quality is really high. Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of evil god believers on the ship, they are just an added bonus. The main source of income is the three hundred Chaos Space Marine veterans and the battleship.

This is mainly composed of two parts: monthly gift point income, plus vassal income, the total here is about 540,000. The other part is the income from annihilating the Ashes Dead War Gang, totaling 680,000.

Gu Hang also spent an additional 100,000 points on frontline army officers, naval officers, technical engineers from factories, managers of state-owned enterprises, researchers from research institutes... a total of 10,000 people from all walks of life.

Human beings are truly a creature with endless potential. Levels can be improved, and so can potential.

This cost Gu Hang 10 gift points, but he felt it was worth it.

It can be seen from this that the development of such poor places has brought them to relative prosperity, and has brought the originally extremely poor productivity to a point where it can be seen. By the way, it also mentions the vassal level and eliminates the gifts provided by the vassal. The depreciation of points is such a cost-effective thing.

[Activated hero: Salas Martins (SSR)]

Not just him, but Gu Hang has never seen any Star Warrior in the [Heroes] interface.

[Physique 41, Spirituality 9, Commander 32, Politics 14]

【characteristic:】

[Chapter Master: He is the leader of a Space Marine Chapter. Commander +5, Constitution +2]

[Survivor of the Atonement Crusade: He spent a long and cruel Atonement Crusade, and the tremendous training became his precious asset. Commander +2, Constitution +3]

[Rebuilder of the Phoenix: He bears a huge responsibility and never dares to relax: Commander +5, Constitution +1]

[Champion Swordsman: He has won the title of team company champion: Physique +5]

[Avenger: He has completed an unforgettable revenge: Physique +3]

【talent:】

[Phoenix Gene: He inherited the gene seed of the Phoenix Legion-Phoenix Chapter, and is a space warrior: Physique +15, Commander +10, Spirituality +5, Politics +5]

……

Gu Hang is very greedy for these attributes!

What he was particularly concerned about was the talent of the Phoenix gene.

This talent should be possessed by every space warrior. As the gene seeds catalyze the creation of two hearts, three lungs, and a series of superhuman organs in their bodies, their physiques will naturally be greatly improved.

Now, the system tells him that the level of improvement is 15 points.

Does every Space Marine have this many? Probably not. It still depends on the compatibility between the individual and the gene seed, and how much power in the gene can be tapped through the individual's acquired training.

However, this number itself represents a huge difference between them and mortals. Being strong is a matter of course.

After being enlightened, you will become stronger.

Just look at Martins.

His series of characteristics can be regarded as something accumulated from his personal experience. Even if he is not enlightened, he is still playing a role. However, the significance of enlightenment is to further explore these characteristics, truly bring about an increase in power, and display them in front of Gu Hang digitally.

And this means that Martins' true strength level must have exceeded that of an ordinary Space Marine company commander, and may have reached the level of a chapter champion.

This is a huge improvement compared to his previous level of company championship.

What is the specific strength level of the team champion?

This was at a level where Gu Hang couldn't squeeze it to death - he had to exert all his strength and squeeze it several times.

Converted to the strength of the psyker, a regular A-level psyker would definitely not be able to beat the Chapter Champion. When all kinds of psychic spells are blasted, a large part of them will be offset by the huge resistance brought by the physical attributes. The remaining power will also be eliminated for the long 'blood bar' and excellent skills of the champion of the war group.

If you want to kill a chapter champion through psychic powers, only A+ level psykers have hope, and only Alpha level psykers can be said to be safe.

This is why the Space Marines are the Empire's top fighting force, not the Psionic Order.

How many Alpha level psykers are there? And humans cannot control Alpha-level psychic powers for a long time. The ultimate fate of every normal Alpha-level psyker is either to become a demon and become corrupted, or to die from a headshot. As for going crazy? They might have gone crazy.

But almost every older war group has group champions, or even more than one.

Not to mention, on top of the Chapter Champions, there are the so-called 'Emperor's Champions' and 'Emperor's Chosen'. The legends of those star warriors whose fame spread throughout the world can even tear apart giant demons single-handedly, killing seven in and seven out of the demon army with one person and one sword.

As for Martins, if he wants to reach the group championship under a normal trajectory, he still doesn't know how many years of training it will take.

Now, 'enlightenment overnight'.

Even higher levels have opened their doors to him.

He is only at level seven and can still go up to two levels; besides, space warriors are inherently different from mortals, and maybe level nine is not their upper limit.

……

In addition to heroes, Gu Hang also spent 100,000 gift points to train 10,000 political commissars, mainly in the army. The expansion of the alliance's army is a bit fast. Although other things are also important, ideological work is the most important.

The other 5 points of gifts were used to train more than 4 million soldiers, some at T level and some at T level. It is also the need to expand the army. He can no longer bear the burden of training every soldier with military cards. The size of the Alliance Army has exceeded million. Each soldier must be trained with military cards. That is a gift of million points, which he cannot afford.

He can only train part of it, and improve the other part through conventional methods. For example, when selecting soldiers, we must meet the requirements and recruit good talents; the training time is lengthened, and conventional training methods use enough resources to increase their intensity; after officially entering the army, those who have been trained by veterans or the military card system have elite levels. troops to bring in new recruits.

In this way, the level of recruits can be improved very quickly.

A considerable number of people, especially those selected from the planetary defense forces from various places, can still reach the T5 level very quickly.

But in short, there are still a considerable number of people who cannot meet the T5 standard when they actually enter the army.

There is nothing we can do about it, this is the price of military expansion.

Those who have been trained with these military licenses and achieved by himself allow Gu Hang to try his best to ensure that the proportion of soldiers in the Alliance Army who have reached the T5 level remains above 50%.

A considerable part of the Astra Militarum, such as the 3rd Dragon Eagle Legion, actually only has this ratio.

All that's left is to go to the battlefield and train.

The battlefield is a soldier's best teacher. As long as they stand on the battlefield and let the greenskins be their teachers, as long as they survive, they will be good soldiers.

The current situation of the Alliance Army is relatively optimistic. Needless to say, the level of equipment was modeled after the Astra Militarum. All kinds of equipment that the Alliance could produce were given to the Army without reservation. The equipment level of many Astra Militarum troops is not as good as that of the Alliance Army.

At the training level, thanks to the baptism of war, the alliance can actually achieve a T70 rate of 5%.

Pretty good.

……

In addition to the 500,000 yuan spent on talents, Gu Hang invested all the remaining 700,000 yuan in the technology lottery.

He drew the 7 level seven times, pursuing a higher shipment rate of epic technology among the level.

And the facts proved that Gu Hang made the right choice this time.

A big deal!

Seven times at the 100,000 level, three epic-level technologies were directly released, and there were also three elite-level technologies. There is only one who has reached the advanced level.

Moreover, these three epic-level technologies, including two of them at the elite level, are what Gu Hang needs very much right now!

[Moon Level Cruiser Technology: Epic Level]

Needless to say, when Gu Hang saw it, he almost smiled!

With it, the Alliance can expand the new shipyard!

The original so-called Musician-class cruiser on the Winged Star is essentially a variant of the Moon-class cruiser, and the changes have been made in an effort to simplify and make it cheaper.

This is the same shipyard that cost a lot of money to design and manufacture. Feiyingxing itself does not have the technical capabilities to expand the production of cruisers.

And now, the alliance has it.

Moreover, the expansion is not a damaged version of the Musician-class, but a serious Moon-class cruiser!

The Moon-class cruiser is the most common cruiser in the Empire. Common, of course, does not mean weak, but it means it has excellent performance and high cost performance.

If it was really rubbish, how could the empire equip the navy with large-scale equipment?

Of course, the technical capabilities of a cruiser alone are not enough. Weapons also have to keep up.

Isn’t this coming?

['Doomsday' Light Spear Array: Epic Level]

This is an L-shaped heavy cannon and is an energy weapon. Only ships above cruisers can be equipped. With Doomsday, the alliance's new cruisers in the future will not lack main guns. As for the secondary gun, just use an M-class weapon.

M-type weapons, whether they are light spears, macro cannons or missiles, the alliance has the relevant technical capabilities.

Moreover, this large light spear array can not only be mounted on starships. Placing it in a star port or even on the ground is suitable for a powerful anti-orbital gun, which is a must-have for a planet to be fortified.

Moreover, the size of the planet is much higher than that of the battleship. Normally, battleships cannot fight against planets, just like in ancient times, ocean fleets could not fight against coastal defense artillery. There is no upper limit to the number of heavy artillery that can be deployed on the planet. It depends on whether you have enough money and productivity.

Of course, L-shaped light spear arrays like the 'Doomsday' are expensive to build, and the shells are also very expensive. Production capacity is also the reason why most planets are difficult to fortify.

However, it is a little pity that among the L-type heavy artillery, Gu Hang only got the energy weapon, only the 'Doomsday'. Neither the L-type macro cannon 'Tadaji's Wrath' nor the L-type missile 'Dongfeng Fen' is available.

If the main gun only has a light spear, it will lack diversity and there will be some problems facing different enemies.

The light spear is expensive, has low firepower density, and does high damage to energy shields and void shields, but is a bit weak against ship armor, and its orbital support effect on the ground is relatively poor.

Light spears, macro cannons, and missiles are the three most common types of ship weapons, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, and they are good at facing different situations. A fleet must have all kinds of weapons to be the best.

The third epic technology is a space warrior technology.
