Chapter 481: Leaders Must Be Good at Drawing Pieces
Following these questions raised by Gu Chen, Abei Shao, who had just been talking freely, immediately became dispirited:
"That... Lord Gou Chenxing, I'm afraid I can't do that."
"Why can't it be done?"
Abe's confidence is getting weaker and weaker:
“Because…Inazuma is too far away from here.
I'm not sure I can accurately open the space door leading to Inazuma with current technology.
Even if the space gate is opened with difficulty, the space transmitted to will be very unstable and the possibility of danger will be greatly increased.
Moreover, in order to maintain such a long transmission distance, energy consumption will increase exponentially.
Not to mention teleporting an entire army over.
With so many people being teleported and the distance being so far, the energy consumption is simply astronomical!
In short, using this technology to transport troops to Inazuma is both dangerous and inefficient.
Uh... I'm sorry to disappoint you."
Gu Chen was not too disappointed because this was within his expectations.
However, in order to make Abe Shao less complacent, he crossed his arms and tutted in dissatisfaction:
"Tsk.
So, although the experiment was successful and you improved this alchemy technology quite well, there are still restrictions on its use?
The distance cannot be too far, and the number of people transported at one time cannot be too large."
Abe was a little too embarrassed to raise his head:
“That’s indeed true.
The distance to open a portal within Liyue is not far, so the problem is not too big.
Teleporting within a hundred people at once wouldn't cause any major problems, and the energy cost-effectiveness is also good."
Gu Chen's expression was still somewhat unhappy:
"But what about the Fatui from before?
They're using crude, unimproved technology. How dare they use it to teleport the Fatui advance team?"
Scratching his head, Abe replied with a stiff upper lip:
"I estimate that even if the Fatui dare to use this technology to transport the Fatui advance team, there will still be risks.
Those advance troops of the Fatui should have been like death squads. They weren't afraid of losing their lives, nor were they afraid of danger."
Still folding his arms, Gu Chen was silent for a while, then nodded, accepting this statement:
“Okay, you have a point.
However, after all the effort to succeed in the experiment and improve it into alchemical technology, why does it feel like this technology is a bit useless? "
Ningguang, who was standing by, noticed something and smiled to help:
"Lord Gou Chenxing, you can't say that. This technology is still very useful.
At the very least, this technology can be used to transmit elite combat forces or conduct emergency communications in certain critical and urgent situations.
At least for emergency use, this technology is fine."
Abe also quickly took the opportunity to express his opinion:
“Don’t worry, Lord Gou Chenxing.
I will continue to improve this technology, working hard to make the distance this space gate can transmit farther and farther, and also work hard to make the space gate safer and consume less energy!"
Seeing Abei Shao's serious attitude, Gu Chen nodded with satisfaction, patted his shoulder, and gave him some hope:
“Good, very spirited!
Just keep working hard like this, and you will surely demonstrate your great value as the director of the research department!
Someday in the future, we will have an academic exchange with Mond, and let your brother Albedo see your current achievements.
By then, he will be dumbfounded!"
I have to say that Gu Chen’s plan was right.
When he heard that he could realize his own value and find his own position, especially when he heard that he could show off in front of Albedo in the future, Abe immediately became excited!
He stood up straight like a soldier:
"Don't worry, Lord Gou Chenxing, I will definitely try my best!"
Then he said nothing else, and left here happily and energetically with the researchers and started to continue working.
Looking at the direction where Abe Shao left, Paimeng clicked his tongue and shook his head.
Although Paimeng felt a little reluctant, Gu Chen was not embarrassed at all. He looked at Ningguang with a smile:
"It's rare to find such hardworking men these days, right?"
Ningguang couldn't help but chuckle:
“That’s indeed true.
Mr. Abe is very motivated. You made the right choice by poaching this talent from Mond!"
Paimeng couldn't help himself any longer, and looked at Gu Chen and Ningguang with almost contempt:
"You two are really enough. I even feel a little sorry for Abe."
Gu Chen spread his hands and said confidently:
“How can he be pitiful?
At his age, he's ready to fight and he's willing to fight! He enjoys it!
Covering his forehead in frustration, Paimeng did not refute:
"Forget it, as long as you're happy."
After laughing for a while, Gu Chen looked at Ningguang more seriously:
"Ningguang, I actually came here to look for you, and I came to see Master Abe just by chance."
Ningguang also became slightly serious, and she and Gu Chen were in sync:
"Are you asking about our Liyue garrison in Inazuma?"
Gu Chen nodded:
"Exactly.
I heard that the Thousand Rocks troops assigned to Inazuma have been assembled? And they are all elite troops?"
“Yes, and they are all well-disciplined troops.
The reason for doing this is that we, the Liyue Seven Stars, are worried that the Thousand Rock Army we send there might clash with the local people of Inazuma and other forces."
Speaking of this, Gu Chen waved his hand nonchalantly:
“You don’t have to worry about that.
The Qianyan Army sent over will be temporarily renamed the Gouchen Army. In Inazuma's name, it is my private army, and in fact, it does represent me.
Since you represent me, we won’t cause trouble, nor will we be afraid of trouble.
Just don't disturb others when the time comes.
As for other forces, whether they are nobles or the shogunate army, they should not be taken seriously.
Of course, I don't think anyone would dare to provoke our army."
Looking at Gu Chen's domineering appearance, Ningguang's eyes lit up:
"Well, then I won't worry too much.
However, Lord Gu Chen, after the army is sent there, where exactly will it be stationed?
There are so many Inazuma Islands, which one should we place them on?"
When this question was mentioned, Gu Chen also became serious:
“Yes, there are many islands in Inazuma, but there are not many places suitable for survival, and even fewer places suitable for us to station troops.
First of all, there is no need to consider Qinglai Island and Heguan, those two godforsaken places. Not only do they have little strategic significance, but the climate is also quite harsh. I can't send my army to such places to suffer.
Then the two places of Mingjin Island and Kaijima Island also need to be excluded.
These two places are the main residences of the Inazuma people. Directly stationing troops there would easily touch the sensitive nerves of the shogunate or the Coral Palace.
So after careful calculation, there are only two places left that are suitable for garrisoning troops.
One is Ta'ersha and the other is Bayun Island.
But……"
Gu Chen had a visibly headache:
"Tadingsha's Imperial Shadow Furnace Core could explode at any moment, and there's also that terrible thunderstorm radiation!
There are evil spirits everywhere on Bayun Island, and being in such an environment is equivalent to chronic death.
It’s so hard to find the right place.”
