Chapter 245: Soldiers on Mars
"Warp speed?" Chen Zhenbang looked very confused, he never thought that the speed that human beings could achieve would be so terrifying. It made him feel like he was in a dream.
"That's right! It's warp speed! At this speed, we can reach other star fields tens of thousands of light-years away in a very short time! Moreover, in addition to the qualitative improvement in speed, we also have an absolute advantage in weapons, at least the most advanced weapons of the Federation are not enough in front of us. Therefore, I have full confidence that I can complete these big families in a relatively short period of time! ”
"With your twenty starships?" Chen Zhenbang didn't believe it.
"Hehe, when the difference in strength is large to a certain extent, quantity is not the decisive factor for victory. Do you think a group of primitives with wooden sticks can defeat a Space Marine? Now we are the Space Marines with the energy cannon, and those so-called wealthy families, although there are many people and warships, are just a group of primitive people with wooden sticks. Lin Feng rarely showed an arrogant appearance, which made Xiao Jin next to him look sideways. Lin Feng also has no choice, now he has to win Chen Zhenbang's support, at least to ensure that he remains neutral after the fleet starts to operate. In order to do this, it is necessary to strengthen his confidence in himself, and besides, his own words are only slightly exaggerated on the basis of facts, so he should not be arrogant.
Sure enough, after Chen Zhenbang listened, his expression was a little moved. As a president, of course, you will know a lot about the open and secret activities of these families. But he endured it because he was not sure enough to raze it in one fell swoop. Now, the confidence that Lin Feng showed and the strength of this fleet might really be able to compete with it.
After pondering for a long time, Chen Zhenbang replied: "Okay! I believe in you, Commander Lin. However, the Federal Axe will definitely not be involved, we will only watch from the sidelines! And you must not do it in the solar system! After all, this is the birthplace of humanity, and you can't let it be ruined! ”
Chen Zhenbang decided to be an idler watching the fire from the other side, in fact, there are deep-seated considerations. Lin Feng's fleet can win of course to be celebrated, but if it is defeated, with the federal political axe in the middle as a buffer, and then mediating as the president, it should be possible to prevent things from developing to the point where it is extremely erosive and difficult to clean up. At the same time, it can also protect this fleet, which has excellent defense and attack power.
"This ......" Lin Feng thought about it for a while, and understood Chen Zhenbang's intentions, of course he would not make accusations, it was enough to be able to get the other party's wordless support. Moreover, he himself did not have the luxury of being able to get the full military support of the federal political axe, and with a fleet like his own, which was thin but not weak, could he still bear to let these Federation warriors make senseless sacrifices?
"Your Excellency, for these wealthy families, leave it to our fleet to deal with. And you're immediately recruiting volunteers all over the planet! Priority will be given to retired soldiers who are physically strong and have experience in starship piloting and combat. Aden needs not only builders, but also a powerful army to protect her! At the same time, you can also send a part of the army into our starship to observe the combat effectiveness of our starship on the spot, and take this opportunity to train some talents needed by the fleet in advance! ”
"Good! That's exactly what I expected. But how long will this war last? I am afraid that with the current reserves of the earth's resources, it may not be able to support until the end of the war! You must know that during the war, it is impossible for all families to send supplies to Earth. ”
"With the current material reserves, how long can it last?" Lin Feng also secretly praised that this president is really as Xiao Jin said, an upright politician who pays attention to the low-level civilians.
"It's going to last about three months. So I hope that regardless of victory or defeat, the war must be over within three months! Chen Zhenbang made a slight estimate and reported a time.
"Three months...... I think it's a little too long. After all, it will take a lot of time to deal with some of the remaining problems after the war. In this way, I will strive to sweep away these family forces within a month! Lin Feng blurted out without thinking.
"It's up to you and your fleet to decide. As long as this goal is achieved within three months, the 20 billion people on the planet will not be in danger of starvation. It would be even better if the time could be controlled to one month, after all, no one wants war, the all-consuming devil, to wreak havoc in our homeland. ”
……
Federal President Chan Chun-pong's plane stayed over the waters of the Bermuda Delta for nearly an hour before leaving in a hurry. No one knew that this hour would actually determine the future direction of the Earth Federation's political, economic, and social fields, and no one knew that this meeting would be the end of mankind's march to a broader universe!
Watching Chen Zhenbang's special plane fly away, Lin Feng completely put his heart down. He wouldn't be so arrogant as to pit a country with a fleet of forty starships, a huge country with a population of tens of billions. However, despite the sympathy and support of the president, it does not mean that the pressure on the fleet will be much less. After all, the most powerful power of the Federation is on the side of the family, both economically and militarily!
After all the federal soldiers had retreated, Lin Feng ordered the "Mountain Peak" detachment to start immediately and fly towards the depths of the vast starry sky.
Earth must not be a battlefield in interstellar warfare. Powerful weapons that can not only kill, but also destroy the planet! Therefore, Lin Feng decided to choose the battlefield in the air, and it was an extraterrestrial deep space far away from the earth.
Soon, the fleet was in the skies over Mars. Lin Feng knew very well that Mars was the territory controlled by the Rockefeller family, which was the strongest and most ambitious family. And he will be here, directly asking the most powerful family in the Federation! As long as it can hit this family hard, it will have a great deterrent effect on other families, so as to achieve the goal in a relatively short period of time.
After hundreds of years of development, Mars in the interstellar age has become very prosperous. Originally, with the harsh environment of Mars, it was difficult for humans to survive on it. However, based on energy shield technology and highly developed biotechnology, hundreds of modern large cities have been established on Mars. The sky above these cities is shrouded in a blue transparent energy shield to resist the invasion of various harmful radiation, small celestial bodies and interstellar dust from the universe. Under the protection of the energy shield, these cities have formed a relatively good ecological environment, and many plants on the earth have been successfully transplanted. The lawns, tall trees, and tangled vines make people feel like they are on earth. Between the cities, there are intertwined underground fast passages, which lead in all directions, like a giant spider web, connecting these cities.
Beyond the city, there is a vast area of desolation. It is said to be a desolate area, but it is not really desolate. Because on Mars, there are still a large number of production bases, and the main task of these bases is to extract various resources on Mars. In order to save energy, the Rockefeller family will not install energy shield excitation devices at these production sites. These production sites are usually located below ground level. Because only in these places can the damage of cosmic rays be avoided as much as possible. But it is precisely these unprotected underground production bases that live billions of civilians. Many of them used to live in cities, but they were financially bankrupt for various reasons, and in order to survive, they had to leave the beautiful and safe cities to engage in such hard and dangerous work. And the huge wealth of the Rockefeller family comes from the various rare minerals mined by these civilians at the risk of their lives.
In the Federation, civilians have complete political and personal rights, and it is economic factors that determine a person's social status. The poor will never be sympathetic and respectful by others. So, even if they know that working in the mining industry will lead to death, they have no choice. They even fear that the Federation will one day use mining robots on a large scale, because that would mean that the only job they can earn a living will also be ruthlessly denied.
