Chapter 191: Morningstar

"It's not only a lot of trouble." Marion smiled bitterly: "Maybe, in the future, my name will appear on the wanted list of the Empire, and it will be on the blacklist of the Charles Federation. Of course, those eleven guys are afraid Will part ways with me."

"It's so serious." Tang Fang's heart shuddered, and there was a trace of guilt in his eyes looking at Marion. In order to make good with himself, or to repay his kindness, the sacrifice made by the old Viking was too great.

Alas, my own abilities are still insufficient. If there are battle cruisers, insect swarms, and even golden fleets now, why don't they go wandering, as long as they follow their ass, why are they afraid of the imperial fleet and the Charles Federation.

"You don't need to feel guilty." Thinking of seeing the apology in Tang Fang's eyes, Marion smiled and said: "We all owe you a life. We didn't expect it to be repaid. Kill Gabres and escape from the supervision of the Charles Federation. I actually wanted to do this early, but I just couldn’t make up my mind.”

"I believe you can see that the García rebels are nothing but cannon fodder in the eyes of the Charles Federation. The companions throw blood and sacrifice their lives in exchange for nothing? Nothing. The rebels are in the eyes of Charles people. It is a tool that we will use to hold the empire behind during the war. If the two sides stop making peace and stop fighting, I am afraid that those hypocritical and cunning politicians will again use us as bargaining tools in exchange for certain benefits. ."

"For more than 20 years, watching those young people who are pursuing dignity and freedom succeed in battle, fighting to death, perishing in the starry sky, their struggles and sacrifices are just wedding dresses for the Charles Federation. I don't want to watch this scene anymore. Going out. Looking for a tiger's skin is definitely not our way out."

Tang Fang was silent for a while before nodding, "I hope we will meet again in the future. Maybe, then, you don't need to wander around anymore..."

"I believe there will be such a day." Marion stared at Tang Fang's profile reflected on the window, and said seriously.

"By the way, I'm very curious, how did your fleet avoid the outer guard checkpoint of the Aslam star system?" Tang Fang's gaze paused on several old warships in the pier, and suddenly asked.

The old Viking winked at him, smiled and sold it off, "I know it."

...

The next day, at a quarter to eight, after eating the Chinese breakfast prepared by the fleet chef carefully, Tang Fang took Aros and Hausen to the Star Harbor Command Center, and had a brief talk with Lieutenant General Nord, and Marion arrived, and then met with him. The three of them walked out of the command center and took a tram to the military port area.

After getting off the car in Area A, Nord led a few people into a trestle bridge connecting passage beside the berth.

"Look, this is the spaceship I prepared for you." The old Viking pointed to a 200-meter-long ship outside the window, narrow in the front and wide in the rear, with a trident-shaped tail, and a set of three small ships under the hull. The auxiliary propeller warship said: "This is the latest lightning python-class destroyer of the Charles Federation. It has a set of twin 200mm orbital cannons on each string, and a deep-space torpedo launch system on the tail. There are also plum blossoms under the hull. 120mm rapid gun array."

"Electromagnetic force field generator, shipborne optical quantum radar, central computer, fire control radar array, liftable solar panel, zero element engine with a speed level of 6.5, intelligent navigation module, fully automatic UAV take-off and landing facility……"

"This... is too expensive. I only need a frigate." Tang Fang didn't expect that the old Viking would directly give him the latest destroyer of the Charles Federation. In fact, this operation only needs a ship with a frigate. A small frigate with fast jumping ability or even a space shuttle can be used.

Nord smiled: "Is this expensive? If it weren't for me and Virginia to stop him, the general would still want to send you a cruiser. Considering that you are going to the hinterland of the empire, the cruiser is too big and a little too swagger. Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, it is decided to send this "Morning Star" to you."

Outside the window, the two-string star spray of the battleship glowed with silver under the light of the Xinggang searchlight.

"Too ostentatious?" Tang Fang's mouth twitched a few times: "Driving a Charles Federation warship wandering in the hinterland of the empire, isn't it considered ostentatious?"

Nord and Marion looked at each other, and both smiled. The old Viking ignored his words and pointed to the connecting cabin at the end of the trestle corridor: "Let's go, look inside."

"Making mystery." Tang Fang muttered, beckoning to the two behind him, and following Nord to the "Morning Star".

"Bah", with a blast of air, the safety compartment behind him closed, and the three of them entered the ship. When some staff members saw Marion coming, they shouted "General" and stopped to salute.

When it was Tang Fang's turn, they changed their name and used the phrase "captain". This can't help but make his vanity full of vanity, who can only experience space travel in video games for more than 20 years, and truly experienced a captain addiction.

"Behind is the power cabin, the front left is the observation deck, the right is the crew rest area, that is the weapon store, the elevator room..." As he walked forward, Nord introduced the various areas of the battleship.

About 5 minutes later, a few people took an elevator and went up to the bridge. As soon as the door opened, a female crew member saw Tang Fang behind Marion and immediately shouted to the more than 20 operators of the bridge: " The captain is here."

Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly stood up and looked back, while Tang Fang was taken aback after seeing the faces of several of them: "Grant, Walton, Joey, Nehemiah, why are you all here?" In front of the battleship's defense equipment console, he saw Churchill with black hair on his chest, belonging to the garrison of the Drosnil military port.

Grant stepped forward and smiled: "Why am I? Such a large destroyer You only have three people, how do you drive? You know, I have a ‘driver’s license’."

Tang Fang turned his head and looked at Marion. Seeing that he was smiling and nodding to himself, he felt warm in his heart and said, "Old man, thank you."

Grant is right. Although there are a large number of machine gunners and nurses in the system space, the ship equipment of the StarCraft Terran is obviously very different from that of the Charles Federal Battleship. He wants them to learn the skills of driving the "Morning Star". It cannot be achieved overnight. Marion did this, very clearly, that he wanted Grant and others to follow him.

Choosing between a group of unfamiliar crew members and acquaintances, I believe that few people will choose the former. With Grant and their assistance, his position on the ship will be more stable and the crew's cohesion will be stronger.

"They all follow you voluntarily, I just obeyed the will of the people." Marion stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Next, Tang Fang exchanged greetings with Nehemiah and Walton. Lieutenant General Nord stepped forward: "Aren't you worried about the warship being too swagger? Come on, I'll show you a good thing." rs
