Chapter 187: Internal Affairs (I)
Southern Star Field, Federal Exit Customs.
Once, in order to expand a barren northern star field, Federal President Dawson? Rex ordered the removal of all entry checkpoints from the Northern Star Domain, creating a thriving free shipping lane. The southern star field, where the E-18 black hole is located, which is the gateway to exit, is strictly controlled by military, and any starship that attempts to leave the country is examined in detail, so as to prevent the Federation's strategic resources from flowing abroad through illegal channels such as smuggling.
And now, after the Federation has changed beyond recognition due to the coup, the status between the northern and southern star fields has also changed dramatically.
As the current new federal president, Tony Blair? Rex knows Anse El? Osvid's counterattack was imminent, so he concentrated nearly 90% of his fleet in the northern star field, in case Ainsel's fleet would jump through the double star black hole and suddenly appear in the northern star field where the E-18 white hole is located. As for the defensive deployment strategy, it basically follows the mode of stationing in the triangular defense areas of Ansair. In addition, considering that almost half of the fleet is newly surrendered, the Secretary General of Congress, Jerry? The FBI and the Federal Intelligence Agency under Rex have placed a large number of agents and agents in each of the surrender armies to prevent their generals from colluding with Anse Air in any form.
There is no doubt that the northern star field, where most of the troops of the new Federation is now stationed, is protected like an iron bucket, and after absorbing the classic triangular defense strategy of Anse Els, Jerry? The two major intelligence departments under Rex completely eliminated the possibility of the generals under their command defecting, making the entire northern star field full of murderous opportunities, just waiting for the decisive battle with Anse El that is related to the fortunes of the country.
Therefore, the current new federation has almost focused all its energy on the northern star field where the decisive battle is about to begin, and has been lax in the southern star field, which is the exit gateway. On Robin's journey to the E-18 black hole with the carrier fleet, they were barely subject to any interrogation, which was unthinkable in the past.
It wasn't until the E-18 black hole, which was close to the jump initiation distance, that Robin received an inquiry from the federal exit customs.
The last time he traveled from here to the battlefield in the Barnard system, Robin personally went to the customs spaceport to go through the exit procedures, at that time, the customs spaceport of the E-18 black hole was bustling and crowded, and if it weren't for Robin's title of Archon of the Autonomous Region, I am afraid it would have been a long time before he could get permission to leave. And this time the situation is completely different, the originally tightly guarded customs spaceport, now only a few old F-V. space shuttles are left on symbolic patrols, after Robin identified himself, the person in charge of the spaceport did not conduct a thorough check, and did not even ask Robin to send someone to go through the formalities, but simply sent an exit permit message, and the whole process was completed.
"It looks like Blair has given up on this exit customs because of that clause."
Looking at the lax exit customs in front of him, Robin knew what the reason was, after all, after signing that special passage clause, there was no point in strictly guarding the E-18 black hole exit customs, so instead of spending the extra troops here, it was better to let go of this place completely, so that all the excess troops could be used to garrison the Northern Star Domain.
"Jarvis, order Lieutenant Colonel Barron of the Pioneer space station to send someone to take this place immediately, since Blair doesn't want to defend it, then I'll help him guard it." Looking at the huge black hole with a magnificent color outside the ship's window, Robin ordered Chief of Staff Yalvis, who was about to return to the Autonomous Region of the Ultra Nebula.
"Receiving here?" Chief of Staff Yalvis was visibly stunned: "This ...... That doesn't seem right, Blair's side......"
"He's already signed that agreement, so there's nothing wrong with me setting up an office here, and even if he were to turn against us over this, it would be after the decisive battle with Ansel, and it was going to be a long war, and we had a lot of time to spare." Speaking of this, Robin smiled indifferently: "Look at the exit customs in front of you, hehe...... An office, that's enough to keep us in control of this exit customs, and it's no longer a secret that anyone who wants to travel to other galaxies through the E-18 black hole. ”
"I see what you mean." After a moment of contemplation, Chief of Staff Yalvis understood Robin's intentions, nodded and said, "I will immediately order Lieutenant Colonel Barron to take charge of this matter." ”
"Let him be careful, try to evacuate the personnel and materials to the Charon space fortress in the Ultra Nebula in advance, and leave a small number of personnel in the Pioneer space station, and be ready to evacuate at any time. When Ansel's fleet actually arrived in Proxima Centauri, he would never tolerate having one eye on his back all the time, so don't risk it. ”
"So...... Abandon the Trailblazer space station when necessary? Jarvis asked tentatively.
"Yes, there's no need to pay too much for a Trailblazer space station, the nails we really have behind Anse Air are actually the Ultra Nebula and the Charon Space Fortress." Robin patted Jarvis on the shoulder and instructed in a deep voice: "After we leave, the space shuttle and various weapon production lines in the Charon Space Fortress must be fully operational, and as much as possible can produce as many 'J-IX.' space shuttles and combat supplies as possible that can be immediately put into operation." At the same time, the Free Folk can slow down the development of the Ultra Nebula mining area for a while, and in my name announce a large area of the Signage Space Shuttle pilots, expanding them into a super-large space shuttle combat formation. As for combat skills, the 7th Squadron of Roses under Afra's command was in charge of training. ”
This time, due to Robin's acquisition of a 'Titan' aircraft carrier, Afra's Rose Formation has been appointed as an aircraft carrier formation and will return to the Barnard system with Robin's fleet. Therefore, this has weakened the garrison strength of the Ultra Nebula and the Charon Space Fortress to a certain extent. But fortunately, the two new 'Knife' frigates to be built in the Charon space fortress are about to be completed, and a space shuttle squadron that originally belonged to the Rose formation is left, so the defense capability of the Charon space fortress will be restored soon.
Robin's order to pilot the Omens Space Shuttle is an attempt to further tap into the military power of the Free Folks. Due to the fact that the living environment has to deal with complex shipping lanes from time to time, the freedmen are generally highly skilled in piloting small starships such as space shuttles and miniature ships, and the freedmen's tradition of predatoring the jungle has long made them integrate combat into their daily lives. As a result, they may not be qualified for positions such as Army and shipboard officers, but they are better suited than anyone to become a space shuttle pilot. Compared with those pilots who have just graduated from military academies, these free people who have been begging for a living in the harsh environment of the universe all year round undoubtedly have stronger combat power.
This, Chief of Staff Yalves, apparently has also taken into account. During Robin's campaign in the Barnard system, he had already begun to sign pilots among the Free People. However, due to the general unruliness of the freedmen and the difficulty of maintaining military discipline, Yalvis always kept the number of signs within a certain range, so as not to cause some unpredictable changes in the army due to the excessive number of freedmen.
But now, Robin believes that the freedmen have been living in the Ultra Nebula Autonomous Region for a long time, and the militarized and high-pressure management implemented by the Ultra Nebula Autonomous Region must have diluted the loose nature of the free people in this long-term subtle way. Coupled with the imminent war, the external conditions for a large number of signs of freedmen to join the army are ripe, as long as the pilots of the seventh squadron of the Rose Formation can overpower the newly joined freedmen in terms of personal strength, then it should not be too much of a problem to tame these beasts in the galaxy.
