Cedric spoke eloquently at the Senate:

"Greetings to the two commanders-in-chief, the Speaker, and the President, my proposal is to allow human commanders to serve in the positions of senators and senior decision-makers."

"The human commander, relying on the psychic communication ability with the contract ship mother, is a natural battlefield controller, and a natural remote barrier-free communication node.

"Because of such natural abilities, many high-level human commanders have contributed a lot to the command, and it can be said that they are not weaker than some of the elders of the Senate ......"

When Cedric said this, there was immediately a chorus of boos from the audience.

An elder directly asked loudly:

"Admiral Cedric, who exactly are these high-ranking human commanders you are talking about? And who are some of the patriarchs? What contribution did he make that surpassed us? ”

Cedric glanced at the other party very calmly:

"As far as I know, according to the practice of the headquarters, every ship girl family will have at least one patriarch.

"Some people have become veterans as representatives of the ship's mother's family, and she has not made any major contributions to the headquarters except for representing the interests of the ship's family.

"And all senior commanders are indeed promoted step by step through military merits and qualifications, and it is impossible to be promoted for no reason, I think you should know these things better than me."

The patriarch listened with a calm face and did not speak, and Cedric was indeed telling the truth.

She couldn't argue with it.

Cedric smiled at her and nodded, then continued:

"For human commanders, whether it is ocean exploration, or participating in the combat mission of the headquarters, but managing a military port, it is already a matter of course.

"In addition to this, human beings may have other special contributions, such as scientific research.

"Although the ordinary ability of human beings is not as good as that of the ship, there are huge numbers, and there will always be some geniuses.

"In most scientific research missions, these geniuses among human beings, their actual work ability, is not much different from the ship's mother, or even stronger.

"But in the existing rules, there is a limit to the upside of humanity.

"I don't think it's fair to the current rules that forcibly confer all human commanders from the Senate and the decision-makers of the battle fleet.

"Before I put forward the proposal, of course, I understood very well that the vast majority of ordinary human beings have various problems with their conduct and abilities.

"But there are very many human beings, and their personalities and conduct are very diverse, some are stubborn and some are well-behaved, some are reckless and some are calm, some are stupid and some are wise.

"Perhaps most human beings have various negative emotions and desires, but it cannot be ruled out that there are types of mature personalities, steady, and selfless.

"In particular, the human commander, who has lived with the ship mother for a long time, will have a subtle influence that will make them slowly inclined to the ship mother's lifestyle.

"Take 10,000 steps back, even if some human commanders have ill intentions and hidden evil intentions, but in the seriousness of your senior ship mothers, their conspiracy is nowhere to hide.

"A simple conversation with you will reveal their schemes. Under the supervision of the senior ship, the human commander cannot do anything to harm the command.

"Therefore, whether or not a human commander is allowed to serve as a veteran and serve as the decision-maker of the combat fleet will not affect the interests of the command, but can improve the combat effectiveness of the combat fleet.

"So I think the human commander should have the right to be the senator and the decision-maker of the combat fleet."

Cedric said this, bowing slightly at Lexington, signaling that he was finished.

Lexington nodded slightly, and asked all the elders on the scene:

"Is there anything you'd like to ask?"

Washington, who was next to him, was the first to speak:

"Cedric, if, I said if, if the resolution passes, what kind of contribution do you think the human commander has made that should be given the status of a senator?"

Cedric's brows moved slightly, at this time, it was difficult for him to answer this question.

If you say it low, it will affect the votes below, although it is almost impossible to pass.

But if they say it high, they may be recorded, and then they will improve it a little more, and work out tasks that are impossible for a human commander to do.

Cedric groaned for a moment:

"This criterion, a special group should be set up to discuss and decide, and myself, my personal opinion, is that after the commander of the fleet is promoted to the rank of admiral, he automatically enters the senatorial council."

The USN does not have the rank of marshal, the rank of general is the highest military rank under normal circumstances, and there are only more than 20 generals in the entire USN, this standard cannot be said to be low, but it is not impossible to achieve.

However, there is a problem with Cedric's words, under normal circumstances, becoming a senator requires a vote of the senate to pass, and Cedric's opinion is that the admiral will automatically enter the senate.

Many of the senators heard Cedric's meaning, but did not take it to heart, because this was Cedric's own opinion, not a decision of the Senate.

Moreover, the idea that even a resolution allowing humanity to serve as a patriarch could not be passed, made no sense.

Most of the senators were not interested in this matter, and under the auspices of Lexington, a few senators stood up to consult, and Cedric explained them one by one.

After confirming that no questions were asked, Lexington announced the opening of the vote.

The rules of the Senate are that votes on the spot, counts votes on the spot, and the results of the vote come out quickly.

The patriarchs are all free ship girls who have lived independently for many years, are in high positions, and have seen all kinds of human beings, and they can't trust humans from the bottom of their hearts.

No matter how reasonable Cedric's words were, most of them voted against them.

In the end, less than 10% of the votes were in favor, so it is natural not to veto the proposal.

It should be said that this result was expected from the very beginning, including ordinary senators, including Lexington, Washington, Enterprise, Essex, including Cedric himself.

Lexington and others wanted Cedric to recognize the reality, while Cedric himself wanted to give himself a final explanation and let himself really make up his mind.

After Lexington announced the results, Cedric stood up and said to all the senators:

"Since it is the majority of opposition, we and I have no meaning for this result.

"Finally, I want to confirm that if a human person designs a strategic-level weapon that can determine the outcome of a war with only a few pieces, then how many of the elders here feel that he should be allowed to enter the Council of Elders?"

After listening to Cedric's words, the company on the stage asked with some curiosity:

"Strategic-level weapons? A few can decide the outcome of a war? What exactly? ”

Cedric squinted his eyes and took a deep breath:

"I'm just giving you an example."

The business rolled its eyes and stopped talking.

Most of the veterans on the scene reacted with the company, some discussed with the people around them for a while, and then some of the veterans raised their hands one after another.

It was slightly higher than the 10% vote in favor, about 30%, but it was still impossible to pass.

Cedric closed his eyes and exhaled a cloudy breath:

"In that case, I'll take my leave."

After Cedric finished speaking, he no longer glanced at the elders at the scene, left the venue unhurriedly, and drove to yesterday's research base.

After entering the door, I picked up the landline phone directly, and said with a blank face:

"Let's get moving."
