"Join the Seven Clans Alliance?" Xu Shijie's face was solemn, although Ye Fei was one of his most trusted generals, he still couldn't believe his ears.

As soon as he thought that he might become allies with the hostile Shang clan in the future, Minister Xu would have a feeling in his heart that the world was really wonderful.

There are no eternal friends and no eternal enemies between countries, only eternal interests have been said rotten, but halfway through the battle, the Shang clan bought off a third party and let the Zhen clan jump out as a peacemaker.

"What the hell does the Jane want to do?" Xu Shijie muttered to himself suspiciously.

He had already understood what had happened in detail, and according to the star ring, the Zhen clan intervened in the war between humans and the Shang clan for the purpose of noble cosmic peace. But there must be a limit to flickering, the ghost believes that the Zhen clan will be such an idiot race, there is not enough interest, and it is strange that they are willing to come forward.

"Chief, how do I reply to them?" Ye Fei on the other end of the communication asked.

"Let them wait." Xu Shijie said, "Just say that if there is a result, we will take the initiative to contact them." ”

"Understood." Ye Fei replied.

No matter what ulterior motives are behind the invitation to join the Seven Clans Alliance, agreeing or refusing is not something that Xu Shijie himself or a few heads of the Military Commission can decide, to put it mildly, different choices involve different development directions of human beings in the future, even if the administrative efficiency of the Republic is high, it is already extremely fast to be able to negotiate the results in a few months.

Perhaps it is that the state system of the Zhen people is different from that of humans. After receiving Ye Fei's reply, Xinghuan said that he was very puzzled, and he couldn't understand why it took so long for humans to make a decision.

Ye Fei originally wanted to explain a few words about what democratic centralization is, but in the same way, even if this game was told to humans in the feudal era, it might not be understood, and it was even less likely that an alien dwarf could understand it, so he simply prevaricated a few words casually.

From this day on, the human current Shang clan officially entered a state of truce under the intervention of the Zhen clan, in order to show their muscles. Human warships patrol the actual lines of control on both sides from time to time. And the Shang did not express the slightest protest.

In the case of a war for human countries, even if they lose on the battlefield, they must hold high the banner of justice and condemn the other side's unrighteous actions in the media. And the interstellar race doesn't seem to have such a concept at all. It's all about speaking with strength. The strength is not as good as the people, and the extermination of the clan is also deserved.

In this way, the finishing touches of the Republic were saved a lot, except for a few warships left near the actual control line. All the remaining warships returned to their stations and began to carry out full repairs and resupply.

At this point, the self-defense counterattack against Shang ended, because it was four months and four days late from the departure of the Xinyuan to the Zhen tribe's initiative to contact humans, so this war is also known as the April War.

Ye Fei's Xinyuan, as the first battleship to participate in the April War, gave priority to withdrawing to the solar system.

The military has already opened up full capacity to produce warships, and with the efforts of tens of millions of construction robots day and night, the lost warships will be replenished in a few months, but the military does not intend to do so, but must first sum up the lessons learned in this battle and improve the warships to a certain extent.

One of the most important improvements for the fleets involved in the war is whether they can equip all ships with teleportation cannons!

Teleportation cannons played a mainstay in the latter part of the April War, but they were traditionally only equipped with the flagships of the fleets, and the officers and men involved in the war strongly called for the installation of teleportation cannons on all warships.

But the most vocal improvement was unexpectedly rejected by the military.

It's not that the military is unwilling to popularize teleportation cannons, nor is it reluctant to give up that bit of teleportation crystals, but that there is a lack of foundation for popularization!

At first glance, this explanation is bullshit at all, the teleportation cannon is just a light cannon, what's so difficult about popularizing it? But the current situation is that the fleet's long-range mobility depends on the portal, and the teleportation cannon also needs the teleportation crystal as the basis, and the teleportation crystal cannot be brought when the portal is passed, and the portal is divided from the flagship after the portal.

Theoretically, as long as the flagship is fully equipped with a transmission crystal, there is no technical problem with this, but the light screen used by the light screen ship is also a transmission technology, although it is not known whether this technology has anything to do with the transmission crystal, but the military believes that the possibility is not low.

The military top brass is very sober-minded, and it is not that they hope that the technical headquarters will develop the optical screen technology, but that they can study the method of safely carrying the teleportation crystal through the guò portal as soon as possible.

Research in this area has been going on, but no practical results have been found, and until now, the relevant practical chambers are still using various materials to wrap the transmission crystals, trying to achieve the purpose of not interfering with each other by isolating the transmission crystals and the portal.

However, the real people know very well that if the portal is not in contact with the teleportation substance, it is impossible to reach the other side of the portal, but the research of the portal itself is not thorough, and before they grasp the fundamental technical principles of the portal, the real people can't think of a reasonable plan at all.

However, as an improved supplementary solution, the modular teleportation cannon carried by the flagship and almost similar to the levitating shield has been theoretically demonstrated in detail and has entered the planning stage, and it is likely to be put into practical use in the near future.

Although the officers and soldiers who heard the news were disappointed, the modular teleportation cannon was better than no hope at all, and it was finally a consolation prize.

Correspondingly, the military carried out a comprehensive modular improvement of the weapons of the warship.

The concept of modularity has existed for hundreds of years, but until now, warships have only achieved modularity in armor and close defense.

The reason why close defense weapons are modular is because most of these weapons are mounted on the armor of battleships, borrowing the light of modular armor.

And the main weapons have been fixed on the battleship since ancient times, and they are completely integrated with the battleship.

However, this improvement completely ended the history of weapon fixation, and any compartment on the battleship was no longer fixed, but the core area, power area, storage area, weapon compartment and other main compartments of the battleship were standardized designed.

The ultimate goal of comprehensive modular design is to take a standardized core area at random, and you can immediately pick out various functional cabins from the supporting standardized cabins and assemble them on the core area, assemble the internal structure of a battleship like building blocks, and then cover the cabin with a thick armor layer outside, it is a complete battleship!
