Chapter 556 Building Warships
Chapter 556 Building Warships
On November 25th, Li Chenglong, Yun Lan, Zheng Yong, Feng Tian, Shen Menghua, Ma Tiancheng, Yun Qian, Laura, Nami and others arrived at Industrial Zone 3.
Industrial Zone 3 was established last year at the suggestion of Li Chenglong, with the approval of the People's Congress of Shuguang City and the People's Congress of Huaxia City. It was jointly constructed by ten departments or units, including the Urban Construction Department, the Dawn Army, the Security Department, and the Industry and Information Department.
Li Chenglong had only one requirement for Industrial Zone 3: to build it into a high-precision industrial zone, specifically for the production of the latest weapons, industrial instruments, storage devices, etc., which also included the construction of four medium-sized space warships for the Earth interstellar fleet.
The reason why only four medium-sized space warships were built was mainly because Industrial Zone 3 had just started and everything was in its initial stage. Even with the help of the space fleets that voluntarily stayed behind and alien experts and technicians such as the Setanians, it was already quite an achievement to build four medium-sized warships.
Two days ago, when Li Chenglong and Yun Lan went to the Earth Alliance headquarters to attend the conference, representatives from major countries reached a resolution regarding the Earth Interstellar Fleet. From now on, in more than twenty locations including Europe, North America, Africa, South America, West Asia, and China, warships will be built using various materials and equipment left behind by the aliens, with the help of friends on Roland Star and other planets, according to the tasks assigned in the resolution.
华夏在本次大会中所承担的建造任务有大型宇宙战舰2艘、中型宇宙战舰10艘、小型宇宙战舰40艘。而曙光城承担的建造任务是大型战舰2艘、中型战舰4艘、小型战舰5艘,其中建成不久的工业3区主要承担4艘中型战舰的建造任务。
The construction of two large warships and five small warships was undertaken by Li Chenglong alone. His space factory was now operating almost 24 hours a day, and in just six months, the professional construction robots could build a large space warship.
Although the Apocalypse had agreed on July 10, 2031, the battlefield it had designated was in the center of the galaxy. Even using jump navigation and space travel, it would take four months to reach the location. Therefore, all the warships had to be completed by February 2031, followed by a month of testing.
The chief engineer in charge of building these four medium-sized spaceships in Industrial District 3 is Mariana from the planet Setan. She was originally one of the top scientists in Setan's spaceship construction.
When Marina led her men to the planet Meran, Mariana felt she had been drifting in space for too long and didn't want to wander anymore. In addition, she wanted to join the cause of building Dawn City, so she stayed behind with her team.
The deputy chief engineer was originally from the space fleet. His name was very long, and people usually just called him Rhodes. His professional skills and technology were in no way inferior to Mariana's. It was thanks to the cooperation of the two that Dawn City's Industrial District 3 was able to operate so quickly.
Li Chenglong and his group were only there for a visit and did not wish to disturb the busy staff. Led by a professional, they toured the first and second medium-sized spaceships, which were under construction simultaneously.
Besides these warships, the city's latest weapons and equipment, including the new Qilin and Yanfeng mechs, the Type 28 super-powered rifle family of weapons, and the Rocket Force's focused beam particle cannons, fully automatic particle energy anti-aircraft guns, space shock bombs, and super-powered missiles, are also manufactured here. The latest Type 28 military uniforms are still located in Industrial Zone 1.
These factories and production lines were also built rapidly with the help of the three major planets. It was because of Industrial Zone 3 that Li Chenglong was able to confidently take out some equipment from his space factory and leave enough space to produce other things.
Currently, his space factory, after several equipment upgrades, is completely in line with the three major planets. In other words, anything that the three major planets can manufacture, his space factory can also produce.
Industrial Zone 3 covers a full 900 square kilometers, which is one-ninth of the area of Dawn City. However, Li Chenglong felt that it was very necessary to develop Industrial Zone 3, not only for the decisive battle more than two years later, but also for the long-term development of Dawn City.
The total area of Dawn City is 9000 square kilometers, while the area of the Dawn Autonomous Region is currently 12000 square kilometers. This is written into the General Law of China and will not be changed or shaken in the future. After the end of China, the only two officially recognized autonomous regions are the Dawn Autonomous Region and the Southeast Autonomous Region governed by Zhao Wuji.
Over the past two years, as China has gradually stabilized, some of the previously established bases and residential areas have gradually returned to China's control. As for some of the inhumane places, the major bases have dispatched troops to clear them out.
At the recent headquarters meeting in China, although the declaration of war by the Apocalypse Warriors caused some commotion, it also ensured that special forces would not attack for the next two years. Therefore, under the call of Comrade Chen Guoqiang, all Chinese people began to actively engage in restoring production and daily life. Human strength is powerful, and the power of the masses is great. We believe that as long as we unite as one, China will soon be rebuilt.
It was already past 6 p.m. when they finished visiting Industrial Zone 3. The weather was quite cold today, and it was snowing, which made Princess Laura and Princess Nami, who don't like the cold, and their guards feel a little uncomfortable.
Li Chenglong originally wanted to suggest going out for hot pot. On such a cold day, hot pot would be the best thing to do. Now that business is booming in Shuguang City, there are naturally many hot pot restaurants. They are delicious and reasonably priced, and many people are willing to go there.
However, considering that the elves of Roland, such as Laura and Nami, don't eat meat and only eat vegetables, then hot pot doesn't seem very interesting.
Li Chenglong whispered his thoughts to Yunlan. After thinking for a moment, Yunlan leaned closer to Princess Laura and asked in a low voice, "Princess Laura, is it true that your Elf and Dark Elf races absolutely cannot eat meat, or is it because of some kind of faith or other reason that you do not eat meat?"
Princess Laura and Princess Nami exchanged a glance, then asked in surprise, "Ms. Yunlan, where did you hear that we don't eat meat? We just eat less of it, not that we don't eat it at all."
Yunlan took out a book about Roland from her spiritual energy space, quickly flipped through it, and then opened the page to Princess Laura: "Look at this page, it clearly states that the elves and dark elves of Roland do not eat meat. Moreover, during the days that Li Chenglong and I lived in Roland City, we never saw meat at the Queen's banquets."
Hearing Yunlan's words, Princess Laura couldn't help but burst into laughter, a rare occurrence for her: "That's mainly because our mother doesn't like to eat meat, so we almost never bring it out at banquets. But we do eat it in private, though it's quite rare. Haven't you all strolled through the food streets of Roland City? They have all kinds of meat, don't they?"
Princess Nami said, "Moreover, there is a problem with the translation of this book. It should be translated as 'rarely eating meat,' but I don't know why it was translated as 'not eating meat,' which caused your misunderstanding. I will find time to do a thorough proofreading of these books and try to prevent such misunderstandings from happening again."
Now that they knew the Roland aliens could eat some meat, that was even better. The group went together to a fairly large hot pot restaurant with a lot of customers. Their arrival caused a sensation, and after greeting the crowd, they went up to a private room on the third floor.
Laura, Nami, and Puru raved about the hot pot in Dawn City. Although Roland Star had similar dishes, none were as delicious as the ones in Dawn City. The group ate and chatted until after 9 p.m. before leaving.
