"Reporting to the commander, Chongming has not detected any unusual activity on the sea..."

"Remain on high alert."

"clear."

Looking at the vast abyss sea on the holographic sand table, the commander couldn't help but sigh. In this large-scale military operation, neither the Pengkun-1, the air force, nor the 005 aircraft carrier were the main offensive force. The real main offensive force was the 099 nuclear-powered attack submarine, which was a modified Typhoon.

The 099 uses a double-layered shell made of new materials, with the built-in Shenguang series laser confinement fusion furnace providing energy and a magnetohydrodynamic propulsion system for power, enabling it to cruise underwater at a speed of 60 knots.

The real trump card is the "reaction missile" inside the eight 650mm heavy torpedo tubes at the front of the 099.

The rabbit has mastered the Shenguang series of laser confinement fusion technology, making the manufacture of fusion bombs incredibly easy. With laser ignition and electromagnetic pressurization, controlled nuclear fusion can be transformed into a violent and uncontrollable process in an instant.

It doesn't matter if fission bombs can't be transported; China will directly use clean and pollution-free fusion bombs, which are more lethal and more environmentally friendly.

The energy released by the fusion reaction will upheaval in the deep sea where the starfish civilization is located. The underwater earthquake triggered by the fusion bomb explosion will completely destroy any possible underwater bases of the starfish civilization, causing them to lose their industrial capabilities and thus their war potential.

The rabbit doesn't want to get itself into a long war of attrition!

Chapter 73 Crowning as King

Zhou Mingrui stood at the highest point of the castle, gazing up at the starry sky. The starry sky on Mingrui Star was beautiful, and the dazzling stars made people forget their troubles.

Time flies, and five years have passed in the blink of an eye... Just as Zhou Mingrui was feeling sentimental, a familiar female voice came from behind him: "What are you doing?"

Looking back, he saw Corliss, dressed casually, slowly walk to his side and look at the starry sky with him.

"Should I call you Her Majesty?" Zhou Mingrui said half-jokingly.

Corliss glared at him, unusually annoyed: "Just call me Corliss, I'm not the queen yet."

“Hmm…” Zhou Mingrui nodded.

"I heard that people from Shangqiu can already fly at altitudes invisible to the naked eye..." Corliss said with some longing.

"You're talking about spaceflight, right? We can indeed send people high into the sky right now, where they can look down on the entire planet and hold it in their hands with just a slight reach."

To be honest, Zhou Mingrui also wanted to go to space, but he was a bit special and had to wait.

"Really?" Corliss said with some longing.

"Does Corliss want to go? The Kingdom of Bell can cooperate with Shangqiu. Let's work together and move towards the sea of ​​stars..." At this point, Zhou Mingrui extended his right hand, as if inviting someone: "...How about learning about CNSC?"

"Great! I'm really looking forward to CNSC!"

Corliss shook hands with Zhou Mingrui and nodded seriously.

Her studies in Shangqiu broadened her horizons considerably, teaching her that when one business fails, she can pursue other ventures instead of resorting to revenge out of anger.

"I also hope that the people of the Kingdom of Bel can live happier lives and move from ignorance to civilization."

The people of the Kingdom of Bel may not be knowledgeable enough... but that's okay, they can learn. As long as everyone moves in the same direction, that's all that matters.

--------------------------------------

At dawn, two suns slowly rose from the horizon, and the entire capital of the Kingdom of Bel, Gran, was immersed in celebration.

The streets and alleys were filled with flowers and celebratory crowds. The royal family's various policies had increased their income, infrastructure construction had made their travel more convenient, and an increasingly abundant range of goods... This affluent lifestyle made the royal family's prestige unmatched and earned them the heartfelt love and respect of the people.

Most importantly, there are no eagles or Anglas here, only rabbits focused on farming and doing business. Everyone can make money together, so why fight and kill each other? Isn't that exhausting?

The crowd lined up spontaneously and marched toward the royal castle, ready to witness the transfer of power in the Kingdom of Bel, with Princess Corliss being crowned as the new queen of the kingdom.

Inside the castle, guests attending the coronation ceremony were guided by waiters to the castle's viewing platform, where the Shangqiu diplomatic corps was positioned in the center.

To the left of Shangqiu was the delegation from the Rebonian Empire, and to the right were guests from the Republic of Calva.

While preparing for the ceremony, the rabbit's diplomatic delegation also engaged in friendly exchanges with representatives from both countries.

As the mayor of Krober, Ellie was also invited to the coronation ceremony. Zhou Mingrui glanced at his "future wife" and then became invisible.

The coronation ceremony is not just a coronation ceremony!

The representative of the Rebonian Empire was still an old acquaintance, Prince Rascal, but today Olivier was unusually serious.

"I wonder what Shangqiu thinks of the aristocratic faction within the empire?"

Olivier stared at the fluttering royal banner and asked absentmindedly.

"We do not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, abide by the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, and respect the laws of the empire."

The rabbit representative said something, but it was as if he didn't say anything at all. However, Olivier seemed to understand something and nodded.

On the other hand, the representative of the Republic of Calva was much more direct, meaning very simply: when will we make money together again? The profit sharing can remain the same as before.

The desert jointly developed by the Rabbit and the Republic of Kalva is yielding good profits. The councilor doesn't know what the Rabbit needs the soil for, but he's very happy to be able to make money from it, since the price the Rabbit is offering is quite high.

Of course, the question of where the money paid by the rabbit went... remains unanswered by the representative of the Republic of Calva, and the rabbit doesn't care.

It's business, after all. As long as the Republic of Calva honors the contract, the Rabbit will do the same. We'll all make money together, and I'll help you mine what you can't develop.

While engaging with major powers, China did not neglect smaller nations. Its peaceful attitude made the often-bullied smaller nations feel flattered.

The rabbit's meaning was clear: "Let's do business, what do you have?"

You live near snow-capped mountains and have abundant water resources? Then let's cooperate to sell bottled water!

You live on plains and produce plenty of fruit? Then I'll import large quantities!

What? You have nothing at home? No problem, we'll send an inspection team, there's always business to be done.

For a time, the Shangqiu diplomatic delegation became the most popular people.

Woo! The bugle sounded, and the delegates consciously stopped their activities and prepared to observe the ceremony.

Amidst the melodious sound of horns, Queen Estée, dressed in her finest attire, slowly walked to the high platform in the castle specially used for coronation ceremonies, with her bodyguard Yuri following closely behind.

The platform was carefully positioned so that not only could guests from various countries have a clear view, but the public outside the castle could also see the entire process clearly.

"Distinguished guests from afar, and citizens of the Kingdom of Bel, welcome to Princess Corliss' coronation ceremony!"

A deafening roar of cheers erupted from the crowd. The rabbit representative nodded with a smile, while the imperial representative, Olivier, glanced thoughtfully at the crowd. The representative of the Calva Republic gave a disdainful smirk.

"Now, please welcome my granddaughter, the next Queen of the Kingdom of Bell, Corliss!"

As the Queen finished her speech, the royal orchestra played stirring music, and Corliss, dressed in magnificent attire, slowly walked towards the platform.

With a confident smile on her face, Corliss walked gracefully toward her grandmother... Zhou Mingrui was taken aback; Corliss today was completely different from the "girl next door" he usually knew.

Upon reaching the high platform in front of Queen Estée, Corliss first bowed slightly to the people of the kingdom, then looked up at her grandmother with her head held high.

"Child, are you ready?"

“Yes, Grandma! I already know the responsibility on my shoulders. If you want to wear the crown, you must bear the weight.” Corliss stared at her grandmother and said earnestly.

"My child, you've grown up..." Queen Estée said with satisfaction, "...Now I can rest assured entrusting the kingdom to you."

After speaking, Queen Estée removed her crown and gently placed it on Corliss's head. The jewels on the crown shone slowly in the sunlight.

After putting on the crown, Queen Estelle turned around and looked around before saying loudly:

"I hereby declare! My granddaughter, Corliss, is crowned Queen! She will become the next Queen of the Kingdom of Bel!"

Immediately, the national birds representing the Kingdom of Bel were released from both sides of the platform, and cheers erupted from the crowd outside the castle.

"Congratulations, Corliss! I think you'll be a good queen," Zhou Mingrui thought to himself as he clapped his hands.

Chapter 74 The Flash of the East Wind

After the coronation ceremony, at the banquet hosted by the royal family, Corliss, dressed in a gown, began to meet the delegations from various countries under the guidance of former Queen Estée, officially stepping onto the international stage.

Just as Corliss was making her international debut, the rabbits in the Abyss Sea were poised to pounce!

The supplies prepared over several months were enough for the rabbits to wage a high-intensity battle against the starfish civilization.

As the frontline command post, Pengkun-1 flew at an altitude of 10,000 meters, its onboard S-band and X-band radars scanning the deep sea.

Inside the CIC command center, staff officers were busy at work. The general in charge of command said in a deep voice, "All units are in position. Operation commence!"

With the order given, the largest military operation by the Chinese on Mingrui Star began!

The Xirang base is mainly equipped with short-range ballistic missiles and cruise missiles, with the Changjian-10 being the primary type.

【emission!】

As the order was given, three Long Sword-10 missiles carrying N2 warheads shot out of the launch tubes arranged in a triangular pattern.

The cruise missile shot out and flew into the sky. After reaching the predetermined speed, the cruise missile spread its wings and, guided by a composite guidance system including Beidou and inertial navigation, flew towards the deep sea and quickly disappeared from sight.

If the PHL-191 rocket launchers hadn't been out of reach, the first wave of attacks would probably have been a deluge of steel rain.

Not only at the Xirang base, but also at the military base in Shangqiu, DF Express missiles are being launched.

The DF series ballistic missiles, which are nearing the end of their lifespan and have already entered the launch phase, are now in the countdown to launch.

The Mingrui Star Inner Sea Star Civilization is located on the seabed, and even the most advanced ballistic missiles cannot attack the seabed target. At this moment, the Dongfeng series truly becomes a "delivery", its mission is to transport the replaced warheads to the designated sea area, without needing to break through the complex anti-missile system.

Since it's like delivering packages, the rabbit naturally uses old-model ballistic missiles that are about to expire, which saves money and solves the problem of disposing of expired ammunition.

Inside the log launch vehicle, the Rocket Force is conducting final checks before launch, verifying the missile's parameters one last time.

[Confirmed, message sent!]

【emission!】

The launcher pressed the launch button, and the Dongfeng series ballistic missiles on the log launch vehicle ignited.

A piercing whistle rang out as the rocket engine's exhaust plume shot out, blowing sand and gravel from the surrounding ground.

The thrust provided by the rocket engine propelled the DF Express into the sky, and guided by the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System, it flew towards the Abyss Sea.

One DF Express rocket after another soared into the sky, accompanied by the roar of rocket engines. This caused the workers on their way to work to stop in their tracks, staring blankly as each "Dongfeng" rocket disappeared from sight.

"This is... Dongfeng Express? My God! The US is here too? Is this the start of a world war?!"

"Don't panic... Didn't the news broadcast yesterday say that a live-fire exercise would be conducted?"

"Live-fire exercise? Isn't that a bit too much ammunition...?"

"Maybe they're just using up expired ammunition. Alright, enough watching, time to go lay a brick."

......

"Commander-in-Chief, the long-range strike has been launched..."
