169: Full-speed unit production

But this idea was quickly extinguished by him.

Rebelling against the Star Empire, how could that be possible!

That would be like trying to smash a rock with an egg.

Unless he established a new base and left the Milky Way Galaxy?

He Ming looked at Steward and calmly said, "What are you thinking?"

Steward lowered his head and replied, "Nothing!"

He Ming chuckled softly, "Don't overthink it. Just do your part."

"Understood!"

A month later.

The refineries on the seven life planets of the Luol Star System were in full operation, with fully intelligent automation. The area within a ten-mile radius was designated an absolute forbidden zone.

The production lines, optimized by jarvis, were now two major levels ahead of the Star Empire.

Ordinary refineries had a maximum resource utilization rate of no more than 90%, and required dozens of refining and optimization processes.

The human and electricity costs consumed in this were countless.

Under jarvis's operation, the resource utilization rate reached 99.99%, the process was simple, refining was completed in a single step, and there was a zero error rate.

The direct and indirect costs saved even exceeded the value of the resources themselves.

In addition, precision parts processing plants, shipbuilding yards, and large military-industrial factories completed a comprehensive renovation, achieving fully intelligent operation.

Simply put, if the total cost for the Star Empire's largest shipyard to produce one Destroyer was one trillion star coins.

Then, the Hai Star Civilization's cost to build one Destroyer was ten trillion star coins, and that was for a relatively backward technology that couldn't achieve light-speed travel.

The Blue Star Civilization's cost to build one Destroyer would be one hundred trillion star coins, and the final product might not even be able to achieve sub-light speed travel.

However, jarvis's total cost to build one Destroyer was only one hundred billion star coins, and the Destroyers produced were far superior to the Star Empire's standards in terms of quality and technology.

Even more terrifying was the far superior production efficiency; for every one the Star Empire built, jarvis could build ten.

This was because jarvis had mastered shipbuilding technology beyond a Level 3 Civilization.

And technology is the primary productive force.

The Luol Star System's fleet composition was: Destroyers: 20 ships.

Reconnaissance Ships: 300 ships.

Battleships: 200 ships.

Frigates: 400 ships.

Energy Supply Ships: 100 ships.

Including the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce's 201 large transport ships, the total number was: 251 ships.

The Star Empire's standard fleet composition was: 2 Destroyers, 30 Reconnaissance Ships, 20 Battleships, 40 Frigates, 10 Energy Supply Ships, and 5 large transport ships.

The vast Luol Star System had only 10 battle fleet formations.

In contrast, the Yuanyang Star System had 20 battle fleet formations.

The Wan Star System, as a top-tier star system of the Star Empire, under the management of Wan Xingying, had as many as 50 battle fleet formations.

jarvis's production efficiency was 10 fleets per month.

But doing too much would cause unnecessary trouble.

Production efficiency was suppressed to 1 fleet per month, but these were not actual battle fleet formations in the conventional sense.

Each warship possessed Destroyer-level kinetic energy and firepower; they could be described as wolves in sheep's clothing.

And the 'Wolf King' was not a true Destroyer; in the Star Empire, it could already be called a titan warship, though its size and specifications were equivalent to an ordinary Destroyer.

Looking across the entire Star Empire, the number of titan warships was no more than a hundred; they were steel beasts capable of destroying a planet with a single shot.

Time passed, and only one month remained until the war began.

The number of battle fleet formations in the Luol Star System: 17.

On this day, Wan Xingying's space shuttle suddenly appeared in the Luol Star System, above the Governors Mansion.

The hatch opened, and Wan Xingying, clad in fiery red battle armor, leaped down onto the balcony of the Governors Mansion's top floor.

He Ming, in black battle armor, greeted her with a smile.

"Couldn't you have given me a heads-up before you came?"

Wan Xingying walked directly into the office and plopped down in He Ming's seat.

"After deliberation, the Elder Council has decided to make you my Deputy, to meet the main force of the Radiant Empire in Yaoyang City."

He Ming already knew the answer through his omniscient notebook.

Moreover, he was aware of some of the tricks involved.

Deco's grandfather held an important position in the Elder Council. The reason for sending him, a nobody, to the front lines was to kill with a borrowed knife.

The reason was also sufficient: as Wan Xingying's fiancé, there was no more suitable Deputy.

He Ming let out a soft snort.

"They want me to be cannon fodder..."

Wan Xingying: "Not just you."

He Ming asked knowingly, "Oh, you're also being used as cannon fodder?"

Wan Xingying: "Our opponent this time is the Radiant Empire's Seventh Knight Army. Its commander, Leighton, is a Stellar Level Rank Nine expert, a renowned God of War."

He Ming: "In interstellar warfare, individual strength is not enough to influence the outcome. No matter how powerful, he's still just Stellar Level."

Wan Xingying replied, "That's true, but don't forget, the Seventh Knight Army has thirteen legions under its command, and each legion has ten fleets."

"The actual number might be even higher; during preparations for war, who knows how many more troops they've reinforced."

He Ming nodded slightly; he had already known the answer in advance through his omniscient notebook.

A full 270 fleet formations, nearly thirty thousand warships, clearly they came prepared.

"How many forces can you deploy?"

Wan Xingying: "70 fleets. What about you?"

He Ming: "7 fleets."

Wan Xingying was stunned, asking in confusion, "You remember that the Luol Star System has a total of 10 active fleets. Are you serious?"

He Ming smiled and nodded, "Every warship has Destroyer-level firepower."

Wan Xingying: "?"

"Are you messing with me?"

He Ming waved his hand, chuckling softly, "Would I joke with my own life?"

"Take me to see it."

He Ming: "Alright."

Soon after.

Wan Xingying appeared on an energy supply ship and pressed the main cannon's fire button.

A target ship, millions of kilometers away, turned into dust in the next second, along with an entire asteroid belt that was pulverized into cosmic dust in this strike.

The reconnaissance ship uploaded the real-time footage to the main control screen on the bridge.

Wan Xingying's expression gradually became solemn, her heart trembling violently as she looked incredulously at He Ming, who stood beside her.

"You're a madman!"

He Ming's expression was calm, and he said serenely, "Do you want to try the titan warship's firepower?"

Wan Xingying instinctively leaned her neck forward, thinking she had misheard.

"What did you say?"

He Ming snapped his fingers, and a mothership sailed out from among the fleet.

"Want to go up and try it?"

With doubt, Wan Xingying boarded the Destroyer.

Wan Xingying did not try again; she was already ninety percent convinced.

If ordinary ships possessed Destroyer-level firepower, then it was no surprise that Destroyers possessed titan warship-level firepower.

"How is it? Do you have confidence in winning this war?"

Wan Xingying looked through the simulated observation window at the more than seven hundred warships docked in the starport, her eyelids twitching uncontrollably.
