058 Rail facilities

The spaceport is not the only facility that Bai Zhongqi wants to build, in the game, Iridium will build a large number of military and civilian facilities in the orbit of the planet, which is actually what Bai Zhongqi can really control as a gamer, and the construction of the planet Bai Zhongqi can't interfere in the game, that is, after the game penetrates into reality, he has a more macroscopic control.

Due to the existence of Ruyi City, Bai Zhongqi did not need to build some facilities that were originally built in the orbit of the planet, especially civilian facilities. For example, in the Imperial Research Center, these buildings in the game are necessary to point the tech tree, and the more you build, the faster the research and development, and the more research can be carried out at the same time. However, even if Bai Zhongqi builds a large number of scientific research centers now, it is of little use, because now in the entire Iridium United Empire, except for Dean Mo Laitong, who has the ability to lead scientific research work, the rest of the talents are not bad, but they are not qualified.

The rail buildings that Bai Zhongqi needed were mainly service and military. A very important building is the Orbital Observatory. For any interstellar civilization, the observation of the universe is extremely important. This is like a strategic-level radar built by the countries of the earth, which can immediately learn and prepare for any hostile or unknown force moves within the detectable range. And in the universe, there are some other threats, such as asteroid impacts, stellar explosions and other cosmic astronomical disasters, and sometimes in severe cases, may even threaten the safety of a planetary system. Therefore, the orbital observatory is basically a necessary orbital building for every planet.

In terms of communications, Iridium also plans to build satellites for quantum communication and other modes of communication in more than just Earth orbit. These communications satellites will serve not only the communications needed for interstellar voyages, but also for communications on Earth later. Massive level of data transmission will greatly facilitate people's daily life, and even the global "WiFi" without dead ends is no longer a dream.

The most important part of nature is related to industrial production and the military.

Although Ruyi City itself has a certain amount of industrial production capacity, it will become unsustainable if it is to meet the needs of a larger scale. Iridium people are accustomed to building a large number of orbital factories in planetary orbits, producing a variety of products, and even a large number of civilian consumer goods that people need, are also produced by orbital factories and then transported to the surface. This is not only very beneficial to the planetary ecology, saving planetary land and avoiding pollution, but also has great advantages in cost control and industrial scale intensification.

For the time being, Iridium does not have a large demand for industrial production, and the industrial capacity within Ruyi City alone is enough to provide the daily needs of thousands of Iridium. But if the Iridium United Empire grows and absorbs Earth's power, or even expands its territory to other planetary systems, then this industrial capacity will not be enough. The production of a large number of products is carried out by specialized rail factory clusters. Bai Zhongqi had already predicted that when country C joined the Star Federation, there would be various needs of 1.3 billion people immediately, and Bai Zhongqi planned to directly improve the living standards of his compatriots to the level of interstellar civilization, which would inevitably require greater industrial productivity.

Fortunately, one of the most typical characteristics of Iridium technology is its high reproducibility, and the Iridium people can expand their industrial system and industrial scale almost indefinitely according to a similar model, which is one of the main reasons why the Iridium people are very powerful in the galaxy. Bai Zhongqi has temporarily arranged a rail factory group, and will continue to deploy new ones according to needs.

Industrial capacity naturally also covers military production, and now Iridium's military strength is incomparably strong in the eyes of earthlings, but after seeing Iridium's incomparably large fleet and military scale, the original R19 fleet is really nothing.

"The population of Iridium is too small, and the real military force is more than two thousand people, although the redundant personnel of the exploration fleet have increased a little because of various risks, but it is still too small to expand a fleet. For the time being, it is still considered to absorb earthlings into the fleet to serve, but the reliability of this group of people needs to be further investigated. Well, it seems that only the unmanned fleet can go this way. Bai Zhongqi thought to himself, Iridium's powerful artificial intelligence and android manufacturing capabilities made it possible for Iridium to truly build an army without real people.

Before the "Führer" was brought back, Iridium's use of the android army was relatively limited, and the fear of artificial intelligence going wild and the inability to deal with more complex wars made the plans of the Iridium android army and unmanned fleet repeatedly frustrated. Iridium has also never built a true android army or unmanned fleet.

Now it is different, Bai Zhongqi has the supreme command, and it is impossible for all artificial intelligence and androids to betray the supreme order, and Bai Zhongqi is now extremely short of manpower, so he put the construction of an unmanned fleet and an android army on the agenda.

Once the orbital factory complex is completed, Bai Zhongqi will start the construction of up to 100,000 android legions. In the past, the authority of the Iridium people was limited, for example, Xu Lanzhou, as the commander of the fleet, could only produce thousands of bionic people, and the demand for bionic people not only came from the military, but also basically disappeared in other aspects. After Bai Zhongqi took power as the head of state, Iridium began to build bionic people for various purposes on a large scale, and the activities of the Earth Visiting Group that had just been carried out were basically all the androids that Bai Zhongqi had just built.

To expand the empire's fleet, it is natural to build ships. According to the sequence number of the Empire's original shipbuilding station, the Imperial shipbuilding station to be built in the earth's orbit will be named 318 shipbuilding. Because the current reserve of antimatter is still a little tight, and the Imperial technology brought by the R19 fleet is not a completely complete Empire's most cutting-edge technology, so in the capital ship class, the capital ship with the latest technology such as the Holy Falcon is not capable of being produced by the 318 ship. However, even the strongest warship that can be built by 318 ships is the technical level of the empire two hundred years ago, and it is also a very powerful combat power in the universe.

By the way, the life span of the Imperial Star Battleships is relatively long, although basically the Imperial Warships will be retired after the expiration of 300 years of service, but in fact, if these warships are properly maintained, it is not a big problem to use them for the last one or two thousand years.

Bai Zhongqi has no plans to build a large capital ship in a short period of time, for him, Iridium's medium and light interstellar warships are enough to deal with many interstellar conflicts below medium intensity, in fact, it is not true that two civilizations are going to fight a life-and-death war, and the level of capital ships will basically not be dispatched.
