Chapter 2246: Chiyun Elegy! (1/2)

The real human empire, the Xinguangfu area, the third theater, the edge of the Xilan boundary, the No. 223 resource planet with no atmosphere and extremely harsh environment.

The Xilan boundary is a small boundary with a diameter of 3 billion kilometers. The stars here are still in their young age. The seven planets surrounding the star are all involved in violent gravitational changes, and they cannot form a dense atmosphere at all. There is no habitable planet.

The ever-changing gravitation and crustal movement, as well as countless planets being torn apart, the exchange of materials from various meteorite impacts, have also made several satellites in the Xilan realm contain a wealth of rare metals and rare spars.

The Xilan realm is the most remote small realm in the third theater, and the resource planet No. 223 is the most remote planet in the Xilan realm.

Here is rich in a kind of precious ”Nickel Fusion Spar Vein”, refined into high-explosive shells, can greatly enhance the destruction ability of the shells, and even increase the destruction radius by more than 100%.

Therefore, after the empire regained the Xilan realm from the Holy League, it also sent a small fleet to be stationed on the resource planet No. 223.

The task of this fleet is not to hold on to the resource planet No. 223 in the possible counterattack of the Holy League-the base camp of the expeditionary force never thought that they could do this.

They are merely ”engineers” responsible for cleaning up and rebuilding the mining bases that have been devastated by the Holy League in a barren world with extremely harsh environments.

This is the mission of the Ninth Fleet in the Third Theater of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, also known as the ”Red Cloud Fleet”.

The Chiyun Fleet is a miscellaneous army, local armed forces, or in the contemptuous tone of those powerful and powerful in the imperial capital, ”a mob of hillbillies” is the epitome of thousands of miscellaneous troops.

The Scarlet Cloud Fleet came from the Scarlet Cloud Realm. It was a world that was not conquered by the empire until the end of the ”Era of Great Development of the Empire” five hundred years ago, or, to put it better, ”joined the empire”.

Because at that time, faced with the mighty army of the empire descending from the sky, the rulers of the Scarlet Cloud Realm wisely chose to surrender. In addition, the Scarlet Cloud Realm itself was a land of poor mountains and waters and extremely barren resources, except for the hungry billions of people. Besides, nothing is valuable. Therefore, the empire generously granted the Scarlet Cloud Realm a considerable degree of autonomy, as long as the Scarlet Cloud Realm pays taxes and troops regularly, and when the empire needs it, it obeys His Majesty and the Senate. Order, send troops and attack the enemy together with the empire.

Even with such ”generosity” and ”kindness”, for the people of the Scarlet Cloud Realm and even the cultivators, the life of the past five hundred years is still extremely difficult.

The tax burden of the empire is heavier day by day. In addition to the amount of taxes paid directly to the court, the four major electoral families have also continued to create names, using various ”fees” and ”special taxes” to smash their bones.

And from the dozens of extremely developed industrial worlds in the center of Xinghai, a large number of magic weapons and industrial products continuously produced on the assembly line poured into the Chiyun Realm like a tide, completely destroying the original rough and backward of the Chiyun Realm, but relatively The independent industrial system has firmly tied the Chiyun Realm to the bottom of the chain of interests of the powerful and powerful, and reduced it to an insignificant component on the assembly line.

Five hundred years ago, even if the technology was relatively backward, the Scarlet Cloud Realm could still refine crystal armors, armed war shuttles, and even starships in large quantities on its own, and even refine one or two of the simplest Star Sea Jump magic weapon units.

However, today, it seems that the various magic weapons used by the Chiyun people are more exquisite, gorgeous and powerful, but there is no crystal armor that is Chiyun Realm’s own brand—all the crystal armor factories in the Red Cloud Realm are all All were acquired by the sects of the four major electors’ families, smashing all those ”outdated” assembly lines, and replacing them with a new assembly line of ”generous donations and free donations” by the powerful and powerful.

Naturally, the core technologies of these magic weapons pipelines are all controlled by the powerful and powerful in the center of Xinghai, and they will never be known by the Chiyun people.

What's more, these magic weapons factories can no longer produce a full set of crystal armor, only 5% of the components on the crystal armor can be refined, and the remaining 95% must be transported from the center of the Xinghai, and then assembled on the spot.

As a result, Chiyun Realm's autonomous industrial system completely collapsed, lost all bargaining power, and was choked by the powerful and powerful in Xinghai Central, becoming the opponent's magic weapon dumping land and resource supply land.

What's more sad is that apart from manpower, the Scarlet Cloud Realm does not have any reserves that are rich enough to supply the resources of the entire empire.

The labor price here has been suppressed to an horrible level-the masters from the center of Xinghai said that the magic weapon factory was set up here because of the cheap labor prices in the Scarlet Cloud Realm and the hard work of the workers. Otherwise, the masters You can pat your **** and leave, set up factories in other big worlds, and even replace all human workers with psionic puppets.

They are here to feed the workers and do good deeds for the sake of compatriots in the empire!

When these words were spoken without shame, these arrogant masters completely forgot that it was during the century-long dumping that they used various shameless tactics to defeat the major sects and magic factories in Chiyun Realm. , So that hundreds of millions of workers have no food and clothing, desperately desperate.

It’s just that the masters didn’t say these words in vain, but were sitting on the bridge of the heavy cruiser. Even when they landed on the ground, there was a whole crystal armor team around them to ”guard the factory”. What about the workers in the Scarlet Cloud Realm?
