Chapter Twenty-Six: Mobilization!
Under the banner of the Guardian Legion, a cruiser-class starship, the USS Amsterdam.
Faster-than-light navigation in progress, target, Qingxue Republic, Changjing Galaxy.
Captain Mu Linsen clenched his fists, frowned deeply, gritted his teeth, and his heart was full of tragedy.
Jacques, who is good at data analysis, calculated the data over and over again, and finally, he shook his head, sighed, and said helplessly: "Our ship has already dismantled all the living facilities that can be dismantled, the soldiers have even given up their dormitories and slept on the floor with blankets, and the cooperative warships sent to us by the military department have also done their best, even so, we still can't scrape together enough capacity." ”
"There are 120 million expatriates on Earth in the Changjing Galaxy, if we want to complete the evacuation mission, there is only one way to forcibly recruit civilian ships, after all, the scale of this evacuation operation is so large, and there is no precedent in the entire galaxy."
Forced conscription?
Mu Linsen closed his eyes deeply, until the last moment, he was unwilling to forcibly levy civilian ships, after all, the tax burden borne by the citizens of the Federation was already very heavy, and if civilian ships were forcibly requisitioned, it would inevitably make the people suffer huge losses.
A weak country, if it wants to develop and grow, needs money in all aspects.
Therefore, the tax burden of the Earth Federation has always been the highest in the entire galaxy, and every citizen of the Federation has to pay taxes on average forty percent of their personal income.
But over the years, the Earth Federation has never protested over the issue of excessive taxes.
Because the citizens knew very well that the taxes they paid were not wasted, but were replaced by warships, colonies and large projects, which became the force to protect their homeland.
Therefore, even those federal citizens who are living in poverty would rather save money on their own and pay their taxes as soon as it is time to pay their salaries.
Not to mention that whenever there is a war or disaster, the citizens of the Federation spontaneously donate on a large scale, the elderly take out their savings that they have saved for a lifetime, the women use their jewelry, and the children save their pocket money...
Mu Linsen said in a heavy voice: "As long as our army can hold on, we should never embarrass the people." ”
Jacques sighed softly and said, "Hey, I know, but this time with only the military, I'm afraid I really can't stand it." ”
"Let me think again." Mu Linsen replied.
After saying this, Mu Linsen hated his hesitation a little.
He couldn't help but think of Jiang Xia, the young man who could do whatever it took to achieve his goals, if he was standing in his position, how would he choose?
At this time, a young signal soldier was stunned, looked at the screen in front of him in disbelief, and said in surprise: "Captain, the Andromeda Transportation Group has sent eight hundred and seventy-four cargo ships to volunteer to join the evacuation operation, and the headquarters is assigning routes to them, and there should be some ships assigned to our group." ”
Mu Linsen was stunned suddenly, "Andromeda Transportation Group? They're the biggest shipping company in the neighborhood, but they're sending too many cargo ships, right? How many ships does their company have? ”
"Eight hundred and seventy-four—" replied the young signal man, already stunned, and his face was already blank from shock.
"A total of eight hundred and seventy-four ships, all of them were sent to participate in the evacuation? How? Don't they have any other business activities? ”
"Yes, but they've already thrown away all the goods they're transporting..."
There was silence in the command center, the cargo ship is not a spaceship in the ordinary sense, but a giant-class existence carrying millions or tens of millions of tons of cargo!
In order to pick up the expatriates, the Andromeda company threw all the goods it was transporting into space!?
You know, as a transportation company, they are only responsible for transportation, the goods are all customers, and throwing the customer's goods into space is to be compensated! The astronomical amount of compensation will definitely bankrupt this company!
This... It's too hard!
The young communications soldier swallowed a mouthful of spit and said, "New news, MRT Airlines has sent two hundred and thirty-nine passenger ships..."
"So much? How many ships does their company have? ”
"Two hundred and thirty-nine..."
"And how did they do it? There must be a large number of passengers on board! ”
"Yes, it's just that all passengers have unanimously decided to disembark at the nearest berth, regardless of the destination, and give up the cabin..."
The command center was quieter, and several female soldiers with weak temperaments had already gagged their mouths with their hands, and their eyes were full of tears.
"Colonize the planet Kansas, send four hundred and twenty-three ships..."The communications soldier continued to report the latest news at a loss.
"How many ships are there in this colony?"
"Four hundred and twenty-three, this is their entire capacity, even the long-range shuttle that can only carry one hundred and eighty-six people..."
More and more new news makes the command center more and more quiet.
What else can be said?
What else can the Earth Federation say if it is fortunate to have such generous and loyal people!?
Forced conscription?
That's an insult to the people of the Union!
When the people knew that the military was in trouble, they immediately took out everything they had!
It has been 50 centuries since the Great Galactic Scuffle.
How many countries ten times and a hundred times stronger than the earth have fallen in this unprecedented super war.
The tiny Earth Federation has not fallen, and is growing stronger in the war!
From the poor and weak countries that ranked tens of thousands on the original Galaxy List and couldn't be found, they became nine hundred and eighty-two on the Galaxy List! More than 6,000 colonies across the long galaxy have been launched!
Here's why!
In every war, it is the army that rushes to the front, but behind the army are hundreds of billions of compatriots, who support it with all their might!
The Earth Federation is a rare country in the galaxy that does not need to be mobilized!
As soon as the country is in trouble, and the compatriots are in trouble, they can immediately unite to an outrageous degree!
Within a few hours, the huge fleet was already setting sail!
Industrial barges, transport ships, cargo ships, passenger ferries, bulk ferries, all ships that can fly have joined this huge evacuation operation!
This is the earth and the earthlings of the Great Cosmic Era!
......
Qingxue Republic, Changjing Galaxy.
The shadow of war has plunged this small commercial country, known for its prosperity and tranquility, into hellish madness.
The powerful and cruel fleet of the Moro Empire is about to be killed, everyone is trying to escape, and the thugs take advantage of the panic to openly loot and burn in the bustling commercial center.
The expatriates from the Earth Federation have a long history of working and doing business in the Qingxue Republic, and there are as many as 120 million Earth expatriates living in the Changjing Galaxy, accounting for up to two percent of the total population of the galaxy.
In the midst of the whirlpool of chaos, the Earth's diaspora is not immune to the impact.
At this moment, in the headquarters of a coral reef transportation company, a young man named Shi Hang was looking in surprise at the sudden inflow of several strong men in black who suddenly broke into his office.
Surrounded by the bodyguards, the old man with a goatee, with a cold face, sat on the chair opposite Shi Hang.
"I wouldn't let them in, but they didn't listen to me and slapped me!" Shi Hang's female secretary covered her face and said in a panic: "I told them that the company has stopped operating now, and it is going to use all ships to transport compatriots back to the Earth Federation, but they..."
Swish~
Shi Hang raised his hand and motioned for the secretary to go out, and he would deal with the matter.
The female secretary had no choice but to reflexively close the door, but it was not completely closed, leaving a small gap.
The old man with the goatee had a grim face, and he nodded lightly to his bodyguards.
Immediately, a bodyguard took out an electronic check from the folder, which is a universal payment method in the galaxy, which is encrypted with the genetic information of the user of the check, and no one can fraudulently claim it or steal it.
The old man with a goatee said lightly: "I understand that you businessmen are just asking for money, and now I want to buy the three transport ships in your hands, how much does it cost, you tell me a number." ”
Shi Hang was stunned for a moment and frowned slightly.
He is a descendant of the Earth's diaspora, still very young, only twenty-one years old, not yet a college graduate, and has just taken over the company from his dead father, but who would have thought that before he could stabilize his family's business, war would come unexpectedly.
Shi Hang was young, but his eyes were firm, he shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, we don't sell a single ship, because we have to transport our compatriots home." ”
"Home?" The old man with the goatee said with a mocking face: "It's fake to send your compatriots home, I think you want to make a lot of money from the expatriates who are in a hurry to leave, right?" In this situation, as long as they can leave this hellish place, they are willing to pay any amount of money. ”
"Less nonsense! How much money they give you, I'll give you double portions! Galaxy Standard Bank's checks, Star Coin payment, all Galaxy Redemption! I'm sure you're not stupid enough to even ask for money delivered to your door, right? ”
Scold~
Shi Hang felt that he had been greatly insulted, and his young face immediately turned red, and his angry hands clenched into fists, and he kept trembling.
"This gentleman, I repeat, my ship must be kept to send my compatriots home, no matter how much money you give me, it will not be sold!"
"And I'm the kind of idiot you say! Not only do I want to send my compatriots home, but I don't take even a penny from them! Did you hear me clearly? ”
The goatee old man's slightly narrowed eyes opened, and he looked at the freak who had rejected him a large sum of money in amazement.
Hum~
The old man sneered, looked at Shi Hang lightly, and asked in a deep voice, "Boy, do you know who I am?" ”
