When Chu Tianjiang and the others introduced the situation, Zhang Xiaogang had been pondering.

"Obviously, there are two priorities now." After Chu Tianjiang finished speaking, Zhang Xiaogang spoke, "First, complete the annexation and integration of the four wisdom civilizations as soon as possible. The second is to participate in the war between the Akula and the Yamora and help the Akula stabilize the battle line. ”

Chu Tianjiang nodded slightly, indicating that this was what he meant.

At least for human civilization, these are two equally important things. As for the war between the creators, it has little to do with human civilization.

Previous battles in the Elam system have shown that even the most powerful super-soldiers are no match for powerful creators. Although Chu Tianjiang's strength has surpassed that of many creators, an existence like Chu Tianjiang obviously cannot be replicated.

"In fact, the latter is more important." Zhang Xiaogang sighed and said, "Our strength is not as good as that of the Akula, and we are facing four intelligent civilizations, which have nearly sixty thousand star systems. If you count the weak intelligent civilizations around it, there are nearly 70,000 star systems. Obviously, with the current strength of the human race, even if they didn't run into trouble, it would probably take more time to control the 70,000 star systems than it would take the Yamora to defeat the Akula. If the Amora have eliminated the Amera before then, we will face the Amora before we can complete the consolidation, and our chances of victory will be almost nil. ”

"In other words, we must help the Akula people stabilize the battle line, and we must not allow the Akula to be defeated."

Zhang Xiaogang nodded slightly and said, "The problem is that our legion is very small, and most of the legions have been sent out. Even if the army is immediately expanded, all the police are armed into soldiers, and they are organized into corps, I am afraid that it may not be of much use. ”

"If we are on a frontal battlefield, we are certainly not very valuable. The Amora people are very powerful, and according to the information provided by Beyan, the proportion of super soldiers of the Amora people is about one percent, while we are less than one thousandth, and even the Akula reach one thousandth. Ali paused for a moment and said, "There's basically no point in us being involved in a frontal battle. ”

"Then, we can only open up the battlefield behind enemy lines."

Zhang Xiaogang glanced at Chu Tianjiang and said with a smile: "This means that we need more super soldiers. Obviously, you don't take hundreds, thousands of legions with you to open up behind enemy lines. Besides, letting the legion pass through the space bridge is obviously more troublesome, takes more time, and is difficult to achieve the effect of surprise attacks, so it will not be able to contain the Yamora people. If our legions are caught behind enemy lines and have to engage in a head-on battle with the enemy, then there is no point in opening up a battlefield behind enemy lines. The problem is, we don't have that many super soldiers, and we certainly won't be able to transform more super soldiers in the short term. ”

"Not necessarily."

"Really?"

Chu Tianjiang smiled and said, "The Star Core Source we have now can transform at least 100,000 super soldiers. After the surrender of the three creators, they also provided a batch of Star Core Sources, and we were able to obtain more Star Core Sources from the star systems they controlled. According to conservative estimates, at least half a million super soldiers can be transformed. If we can get some help from Beyang, we might be able to double the scale. Maybe a million human super-soldiers are not a lot for this war, and the number of super-soldiers of the Yamora is at least ten times that of this size, maybe more, but as long as we have the initiative and we decide where and how to fight, these super-soldiers can play a role in turning the tide of the war. ”

"The problem is, we also have to think about consolidating the rear."

"Actually, we don't need a lot of super soldiers, and we probably only need a few legions in the early stage." Arley stole the topic away. "Our mission is to open up a battlefield behind enemy lines, mainly to attack the star system behind the Yamora people, and if necessary, even destroy the star system. Of course, we try to avoid that. As long as Deria doesn't fight us in a war of destruction, there's no reason for us to destroy those massive star systems. If the goal is to quickly capture a star system and destroy the Yamora inside, five legions should be enough. If the size of the star system is relatively small, and the goal is not to wipe out all the Amoras, maybe two legions will be enough. ”

Zhang Xiaogang nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Ali meant.

"Of course, Delia will deal with us in the same way."

"That means we're going to have to adjust our defenses." Zhang Xiaogang sighed and said, "Our forces can only hold the main star system at most. If we are attacked, I'm afraid we'll have to give up the secondary galaxies. In addition, we definitely need more fighters with super soldiers. ”

"There is also a need to build enough two-way space bridges and subspace bridges." Chu Tianjiang added.

Zhang Xiaogang nodded and said, "You can take away five legions, but before that, you have to transform more super soldiers." ”

Ali nodded in agreement, and that was what she thought.

"Lao Zhang, there is one thing, I'm afraid we have to say."

"What?"

"Perhaps, we need to temporarily stop the transformation of other intelligent civilizations."

"For what?"

"Obviously, we need to build a legion with more people."

Zhang Xiaogang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I don't think it's a problem, there is no need to change anything at all." If we are to be attacked by the Yamora, not only will we not be able to give up the transformation of other intelligent civilizations, but we will have to speed up the transformation, and even try to reduce the number of individuals in other intelligent civilizations. ”

Chu Tianjiang was slightly stunned, and looked at Zhang Xiaogang in disbelief.

"Lao Zhang is right, we have to do this." Ali stood on Zhang Xiaogang's side again.

"For what?"

"It's very simple, not only the Elama, but also the Hingis and the other three intelligent civilizations have long been star-nucleated." Bea spoke, "If war breaks out, then they will all be a resource that the Yamora people can use." If we don't speed up the transformation and de-stellar nucleation of these intelligent civilizations, then every time we lose a star system, it means that a large number of star cores will fall into the hands of the enemy. ”

"This ......"

"No matter how many Star Core Sources we have, we can't arm all the fighters. At the end of the day, whoever has the most star cores will have a greater chance of winning the war. Star cores are the most valuable resource for powerful and intelligent civilizations, and we must not allow the Amora to obtain resources from us. ”

Chu Tianjiang was silent, he didn't think about this question.

"In fact, the transformation of these intelligent civilizations will not only not slow down the speed of military expansion, but can speed up the speed of military expansion. Obtaining the Star Core directly from them is obviously more convenient than mining the Star Core. Zhang Xiaogang smiled reluctantly and said, "We have proven this when transforming the Elam people. As for the size of the human population, the problem is not very big. We have used less than a trillion people to transform the Elamite. Even if the other four intelligent civilizations are larger, they will not need to use more than five trillion manpower. ”

"We only have twenty trillion in total."

"It's not just twenty trillion people, it's twenty trillion warriors. In addition to the offspring raised to replenish war losses, all of us are adults. In other words, with enough resources, and corresponding needs, we can transform all 20 trillion people into warriors. ”

Chu Tianjiang was slightly startled, and then he understood.

Obviously, militarizing humanity and making everyone a soldier and police officer is exactly what Zhang Xiaogang wants to achieve, and what is lacking is only resources and needs.

When that day comes, human civilization will be a war machine in the truest sense of the word.

Of course, at that time, humanity may not have been an intelligent civilization, but a military organization, a species that existed specifically for fighting.

In a sense, this is also the only way for human civilization to develop and grow.

That is, it is impossible for other intelligent civilizations, including the Yamora, to be fully militarized, and it would be very good to have one warrior out of 10,000 individuals. At this rate, even if the Yamora had hundreds of millions of individuals, their armies would not be larger than those of humans.

Of course, the benefits of all-round militarization are not only to raise combat effectiveness to the limit, but also to greatly enhance the survivability of human civilization.

That is, 20 trillion people, scattered in tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of star systems, with an average of only a few hundred million humans in each star system, and all of them are warriors and policemen. Even if one or more of these star systems were to be devastated in a war, human civilization would not perish. Obviously, no intelligent civilization can destroy tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of star systems, in one fell swoop. As long as a part of humanity survives, it will be able to rely on the surviving star systems to develop and grow, and once again become a powerful intelligent civilization. If human civilization cannot be destroyed, then human civilization can become the ultimate victor in the war of intelligent civilizations.

Zhang Xiaogang has thought of this a long time ago, and has been working in this direction.

In the past, human civilization lacked the resources needed for comprehensive militarization, and even less the need for comprehensive militarization, that is, there was no need to arm so many warriors and soldiers.

With the acquisition of tens of thousands of star systems and the control of five star nuclei of intelligent civilizations, resources are no longer an issue.

As for the need, after the full-scale outbreak of the war with the Yamora, it is not a problem to arm hundreds of millions of warriors, or even to arm all of them into warriors.
