Start with a blacksmith shop.

Chapter 332 is in chaos.

The gun barrel, emitting a faint red glow, seemed to recoil slightly, and with this recoil, the red glow in the energy gun barrel disappeared.

Below the plane, on the sea in the direction the ship was traveling, a small explosion suddenly occurred, sending waves more than four meters high into the air. Before the waves could fall back down, the seawater was vaporized into water vapor by the high temperature.

The ship, which had been quite stubborn, panicked and started yelling in the captain's cabin after seeing this.

"Hurry, hurry, turn the boat around, turn the boat around, hurry, hurry..."

The sailors on the ship were truly terrified by this sudden turn of events. They never expected that this extremely strange plane in the sky would actually open fire.

Less than fifty meters in front of their ship, a cannon was fired, and it was a very powerful one. Although they did not know what kind of weapon caused the explosion and the evaporation of the seawater, they knew that if their ship were hit, the consequences would be unbearable.

Putting everything else aside, the heat from evaporating the seawater is something these sailors on the ship can't withstand. If they were to be exposed to it, they would probably be roasted into mummies right there on the ship.

So, for their own safety, they were particularly conscious of their surroundings and immediately turned the boat around, running back the way they had come.

Once the ship left the broken bowl's exclusive economic zone, they finally calmed down, and then they stopped the ship.

What they need to do next is contact the cargo owner. In the current situation, they are just a civilian merchant ship, and they are facing the behemoth that is Kyushu's aircraft. What can they do?

What happened at the Broken Bowl Sea immediately attracted the attention of most people in the world, and also showed other countries Kyushu's tough stance on this matter.

Thinking about it, it makes sense. Since Broken Bowl has already said he's responsible for the explosion that happened in space, the meaning is quite clear: it's practically a declaration of war against Kyushu.

Since both sides are already at war, it's not excessive for Kyushu to do anything now. Back when Kyushu was poor and weak, it dared to fight the United States and drive them out of the 38th parallel.

The subsequent counterattacks launched by Kyushu against India and Vietnam are even more noteworthy, as they directly attacked the capital of those countries. All of Kyushu's previous actions have demonstrated that it is not a country that will always swallow its pride.

Now that Kyushu has actually taken the drastic step of using force to unilaterally blockade Broken Bowl, it's not so surprising.

After the cargo ship contacted the cargo owner, the cargo owner was extremely anxious and immediately contacted the officials on the Broken Bowl. In fact, even if he hadn't contacted them, the higher-ups on the Broken Bowl would already know what had happened.

Breaking Bowls immediately sprang into action, dispatching their largest warship, the Yortebingis minelayer with a displacement of only 1500 tons.

The ship's purpose was simple: it intended to provide armed escort and take the cargo ship back to Broken Bowl Port.

None of Broken Bowl's actions escaped the notice of the satellites in Kyushu's sky. Kyushu immediately issued orders to Snow Owl and his men regarding the mine-laying ship that Broken Bowl had dispatched.

The mine-laying ship could sail out of Broken Bowl's port, but they were not allowed to enter Broken Bowl, and there were also regulations regarding the use of weapons for Snow Owl and his men.

All weapons used on the aircraft must follow one rule: direct attacks are prohibited. One's own weapons can only be used in the vicinity of the aircraft and cannot be used to attack any of the enemy's targets.

They also added a lockdown rule for the Snow Owl and his group: people who came out of the broken bowl were not prohibited from entering!

In other words, only outwards are allowed, but no inwards. It is believed that after the people inside the broken bowl discover this fact, a large number of their citizens will flee abroad, and the wealthy people inside the broken bowl will probably be the first to run away.

However, the calculations from the Kyushu side suggest that their officials will be even faster than the wealthy, regardless of what excuse they use to leave Broken Bowl, they will definitely leave.

Snowy Owl and his crew piloted their aircraft, hovering over the sea outside the broken bowl, waiting for the mine-laying ship to emerge.

Before long, the small warship finally emerged at its maximum speed of 15 knots and headed toward the cargo ship that had been driven away earlier.

The cargo ships that had been scared away earlier immediately calmed down when they saw the warship with the broken bowl approaching.

With the support of warships, they believed that the outcome would be completely different from before.

The daring cargo ship followed the minelayer toward the Broken Bowl coastline.

But to their complete surprise, before they had gone very far behind the warships, less than two nautical miles away, Kyushu's spaceplane hovered above the two ships once again.

The warship with the broken bowl clearly didn't take this small plane seriously. It was easy to deal with such a small plane with just one anti-aircraft missile.

Clearly, these soldiers with broken bowls did not understand what kind of aircraft they were about to face, and their actions at that moment fully demonstrated their ignorance.

They don't even consider what it means for them to declare they're taking responsibility. The nuclear explosion at the time didn't cause any significant impact, so what effect could their tiny missiles possibly have?

The warship's commander immediately gave the order in the captain's cabin to use the ship's only two 40mm cannons to aim at the spaceplane hovering more than 100 meters in front of them.

Then the two machine guns began to unleash a barrage of ammunition at the spaceplane, but what happened next was something they had never expected.

Shells were fired one after another, flying over the distance between the two sides and approaching the plane. They thought they would shoot the plane down, but their shells hit the plane as if they had hit an invisible wall!

The solid projectiles struck the energy shield outside the spaceplane. The high inertia caused the projectiles to deform immediately upon impact, transforming them from their original projectile shape into metal discs.

Moreover, some of the shells were proximity bombs, which exploded right there after being loaded onto the shield. But regardless of whether they were solid shot or proximity bombs, all the attacks were blocked by the shield.

Their target aircraft, on the other hand, remained completely unharmed, hovering perfectly in the air in front of them.

All the officers and men on the mine-laying ship were dumbfounded. It turned out that everything they had seen on the news was true, and that Kyushu's planes were really that powerful.

At that moment, all the officers and soldiers on the warship were filled with regret. They were all blaming their country for issuing the previous statement that it would take responsibility for the space explosion.

The aircraft carrying the Snowy Owl was attacked. Clearly, being passively attacked was not the style of Kyushu. Then, the energy gun reappeared and fired at the sea not far in front of their warship.

Moreover, this time it wasn't just a single shot fired; it was a complete encirclement, creating a semi-circular coverage along their inevitable path of advance.

The numerous particle energy projectiles exploded on the sea surface, creating massive amounts of steam that brought both the warship and the returning cargo ship to a halt.

The two boats not only stopped immediately, but also turned around and headed straight away from the broken bowl.

With the problems on the sea resolved, the remaining issue is the airspace above Broken Bowl. Since spaceplanes are essentially air power, blocking Broken Bowl's air power should be a fairly simple matter.

It wasn't that Po Wan didn't want to resist, but with only 1.8 soldiers, Po Wan's army was like an ant in front of Kyushu.

This blockade was remarkably simple; a single spaceplane was all it took to complete the mission, even though the plane was somewhat groundbreaking.

This time, Kyushu unilaterally blocked Broken Bowl. As a member of the organization that broke the agreement, Broken Bowl did not receive any help from the organization. Now, all the members of Europa who broke the agreement are like turtles hiding in the ground, afraid that something that has nothing to do with them will come knocking on their door.

Their original alliance of offense and defense was now like a dead letter, serving no purpose whatsoever, and they all stayed far away from this matter.

The broken bowl was in a terrible state at this point. The more joyful they had been dancing before, the more tragic their fate would be from now on.

The spaceplane's operation was not hindered by other countries. Although these countries made statements, they could not stop the de facto blockade.

The lockdown continued, and as time passed day by day, the situation inside the broken bowl became increasingly worse.

First, panic broke out in their country, and ordinary people were looking for ways to escape. Meanwhile, their wealthy elites and officials had already figured out from the warship incident that Kyushu's blockade was not about preventing them from leaving, but rather about preventing them from entering.

Therefore, these high-ranking figures all fled their homeland in their own ways as soon as they realized what was happening. In particular, their government officials all took planes to the command center for the breach of contract at the first opportunity.

After all the officials of Powa fled, the country of Powan fell into chaos, and its people discovered the loopholes in the system. As a result, after only two weeks of lockdown, the supplies temporarily stored inside Powan were insufficient to meet the needs of its citizens.

How much resilience can a small country with less than three million people have?

In other words, Kyushu destroyed this small European country with just one plane. After leaving the Broken Bowl, the leaders of the Broken Bowl all tried to extend goodwill to Kyushu, but this time Kyushu ignored them.

Kyushu had already stated that the lockdown would last for one month, so in order to be a country that keeps its word, if it says it will be locked down for one month, it will be locked down for one month, not even for a second less.

The small country of Broken Bowl offered little resistance and was thus subjugated by Kyushu.

The broken bowl is already lying flat, but Li Zhenhua has shown no interest in paying attention to these events lately, as he is too busy with his own affairs to finish!

After all ten sets of solar star energy cores were successfully activated some time ago, he became even more focused on the manufacturing of the space fighter. At this point, he was truly looking forward to the fighter he had created.

Having a spaceplane company already gives Kyushu enough confidence. In the future, when these ten professional fighter jets are put into operation, what heights will Kyushu reach? At that time, Kyushu's future situation will be unstoppable.

Just as Professor Ai said, truth lies only within the range of cannons, and dignity only on the edge of a sword. Only with sufficient military support can Kyushu peacefully rise or fully revive in its future development and return to the top of the world.

The aircraft's most important energy core has been completed. What he is currently building is the fighter jet's other core, the Dijun Anti-Gravity Engine.

As before, the experience of successfully manufacturing the previous passenger and cargo aircraft greatly helped with the subsequent work. As they say, practice makes perfect, and he had already completed the manufacturing of multiple engines in the virtual laboratory.

So there are no other problems with the manufacturing of the engine, and this manufacturing still follows the principle of being entirely made by machine tools.

As for the precision of the parts, he did not check the precision of the parts after they came off the machining center, as long as the parts were within the precision range he designed!

Even if the precision of the parts does not meet the requirements, he will not manually process them again, but will put them on the machining center for fully automatic processing again. If that still doesn't work, he will work on the machining program. In any case, everything must meet the requirements of machining.

Only when all parts of the aircraft are manufactured using machining centers can the large-scale production of aerospace fighters be possible.

This aerospace fighter will not be turned into a laboratory aircraft. Only when it is mass-produced and put into service will it be able to realize its maximum value.

The manufacturing of this fighter jet was the easiest he had ever done. He had never been so relaxed before, as the entire process was completed using a machining center.

This is all thanks to his foresight in developing the ultra-large, high-precision machining center; otherwise, achieving such ease would not have been easy for him.

Everything is proceeding smoothly with the fighter jet manufacturing, the blockade on the other side of the broken bowl continues, and there have been no unexpected incidents. Right now, all the troublemaking countries on Earth are behaving themselves.

They were simply watching how things unfolded without taking any further action, but Kyushu did not remain inactive.

Kyushu deployed its most powerful missile, still using the Dongfeng Express for delivery.

The missile that was pulled out is also undergoing intensive inspections because its shelf life is about to expire. Sending it into space can be considered a way to reuse old materials.

Bombing the world will make it more nuclear-peaceful!
