Chapter 324: Chapter 324: The Chu Family Fleet · North Wind God

When those starships bearing the golden ’Chu’ character insignia on their hulls first appeared, perhaps some had not yet noticed.

But when this T4 Boreas-class Heavy Interstellar Battleship emerged, almost everyone aboard the starships present immediately became aware of the news.

Because this interstellar warship was simply enormous!

The T3 Phoenix-class Heavy Carrier Starship boasts a hull length of 4,800 meters—isn’t that massive enough?

Carrier starships are the largest in volume among their class. Without prioritizing speed, maximizing the hull allows for the accommodation of more stellar fighters and stellar drones.

Yet, even such a colossal T3 Phoenix-class Heavy Carrier Starship appeared like a small child standing beside an adult when compared to the T4 Boreas-class Heavy Interstellar Battleship.

With a hull length of 7,800 meters, the T4 Boreas-class Heavy Interstellar Battleship instantly became the center of attention upon its arrival!

Behind the golden ’Chu’ character insignia was the string number: C07.

"Chu River Star Sector, Third Fleet of the Governor’s Legion, reporting for support duty!" A spirited female voice rang out in the public channel.

In truth, the identity of this fleet was already quite evident upon seeing the golden ’Chu’ character insignia.

Shortly after, two more T4 Boreas-class Heavy Interstellar Battleships traversed the Stargate, appearing on either side of the North Wind God C07.

Their string numbers were: C08 and C09, respectively.

Three T4 Boreas-class Heavy Interstellar Battleships!

A corps-level fleet equipped with three T3 North Wind God-class Heavy Interstellar Battleships—who else but the Governor’s Legion Fleet of the Chu Family could afford such lavish treatment?

"The Chu Family! It’s actually the Chu Family’s fleet!" The eldest son, Xu Yifan, stared in astonishment at this interstellar fleet, which numbered only three hundred starships yet felt like three rising suns illuminating his heart.

He had never imagined that the Chu Family fleet would appear here.

Among all the star sector governors, whose Governor’s Legion Fleet is the strongest?

There is only one answer.

Governor Chu He!

With the three titles of Five-Star Marshal, Imperial Duke, and Governor of Chu River, Old Master Chu wielded immense authority!

Moreover, Governor Chu He himself hailed from a military background and possessed a natural fondness for interstellar warships.

Nearly half of the Chu Family’s annual revenue was allocated as military budget!

This made them the star sector governor with the largest military budget scale.

If not for the unique position of the Chu River Star Sector, the Imperial Royal Family of the Stellar Glory Empire would likely have long been unable to tolerate the Chu Family’s existence.

"Young Master... we might... be saved..." The adjutant’s eyes welled with tears as he gazed upon the three hundred Chu Family interstellar warships before him.

Although only three hundred had arrived—merely one of the ten fleets within Governor Chu He’s Legion—no one dared to underestimate their combat capability!

Once, someone ranked the combat prowess of various legions within the Galactic Alliance, and the Chu Family Legion ranked within the top ten!

One can imagine the sheer terror of their combat strength!

Among the three hundred interstellar warships before them, aside from the three North Wind Gods, every single one was a T3-class starship!

It is worth noting that the Stellar Glory Empire’s proposal to gradually phase out T2 Starships and fully equip with T3 interstellar warships was an idea that had only emerged in recent years.

Yet, the Chu Family Legion had already begun deploying them long ago!

Such treatment was likely only enjoyed by the few royal legions.

Bridge of the T3 Phoenix-class Heavy Carrier Starship

Looking at the interstellar fleet before him, Zhao Chen had to admit he felt a bit envious.

When would he be able to gallantly lead a fleet of T3 interstellar warships across the stars like this?

Especially those three T4 Boreas-class Heavy Interstellar Battleships—Zhao Chen felt a bit like Cao Cao coveting another man’s wife.

Our system can’t produce them yet, so... maybe I should borrow one from Old Master Chu sometime to play with?

At that moment, Secretary Officer Lilith quickly pulled up a data panel detailing the fleet composition of this Chu Family fleet.

3 T4 Boreas-class Heavy Interstellar Battleships

10 T3 Dragon Crocodile-class Medium Interstellar Battleships

5 T3 War Falcon-class Medium Carrier Starships

20 T3 Blazing Lion-class Medium Star Battleship Cruisers

40 T3 Dagger-class Medium Interstellar Cruisers

30 T3 Flame Dragon-class Medium Interstellar Destroyers

50 T3 Knight-class Medium Interstellar Destroyers

150 T3 Night Watcher-class Interstellar Heavy Frigates

"The Third Fleet of the Chu Family’s Governor Legion has arrived with a total of 308 interstellar warships," Secretary Officer Lilith reported.

It was a very comprehensive and militarized starship type allocation.

Most of them were known T3 interstellar warship series within the Stellar Glory Empire.

However, there was one starship among them that Zhao Chen was extremely familiar with.

That, of course, was the T3 Flame Dragon-class Medium Interstellar Destroyer, whose production technology Zhao Chen had licensed to the Chu Family.

Based on the production numbers from the previous two batches, the Chu Family should currently have 90 T3 Flame Dragon-class Medium Interstellar Destroyers in active service. Some of these had been assigned to the Imperial Army on the border to gather combat data in real battles.

Upon learning of the excellent combat capability of the T3 Flame Dragon-class Medium Interstellar Destroyer in actual combat,

Old Master Chu naturally arranged for it to be integrated into the Chu Family’s most elite fleets.

From what Zhao Chen understood, the Chu Family’s Governor Legion consisted of ten fleets in total. The lower the fleet number, the more "favored" and combat-capable they were.

However, he estimated that the first batch of T3 Flame Dragon-class Medium Interstellar Destroyers to be fully equipped wouldn’t be assigned to the top few fleets. After all, introducing an unfamiliar starship into an established combat sequence

would require running-in (running-in - running-in) in terms of operational coordination.

A fleet like the Third Fleet was just the right level. Once a combat system was established there, it could be applied to other fleets in the future when they were fully equipped with the T3 Flame Dragon-class Medium Interstellar Destroyers, achieving rapid calibration.

Just then, a video communication request popped up. Zhao Chen accepted.

A video window appeared before Zhao Chen, revealing a familiar, graceful figure on the other side.

"Am I late?" Chu Xuan blinked.

Zhao Chen glanced at the time. "According to our agreed time, you’re five minutes late."

"You..." Chu Xuan instinctively wanted to retort—what’s five minutes?

But then she remembered something her grandfather had once taught her.

Even though starships are massive, during combat, time must be precise to the minute!

Sometimes, a discrepancy of just a minute or tens of seconds could alter the course of an entire battle.

"Alright, you got here pretty fast," Zhao Chen said with a slight smile.

If he hadn’t made preparations in advance and had a premonition that something would happen in the Morton Star System...

It was simply impossible to arrive so quickly.

Yet, upon receiving his message, she hastily assembled the fleet and, in such a short time, led a fleet from the Chu River Star Sector to the North Wind Star Domain, and then to the Morton Star System.

To accomplish this within just a few hours was already enough to demonstrate the new operational efficiency of the Chu Family fleet!

"I’ve sent you the current situation on the battlefield.

The worst news is that among the opposing Zerg Fleet, there is at least one T4 Zerg Nest Mothership, located here!" Zhao Chen marked the position of the T4 Zerg Nest Mothership on the star map he had sent.

Because the T4 Zerg Nest Mothership moves relatively slowly, its location was actually quite easy to pinpoint.

"Only one spotted?"

"Only one confirmed for now, but we must prepare for the worst. My expectation is that the Zerg Fleet has three T4 Zerg Nest Motherships! So... our top priority is..."

Zhao Chen and Chu Xuan exchanged a glance, speaking almost simultaneously.

"Destroy that T4 Zerg Nest Mothership first!"
