Chapter 522: A Billion Inhabitants

More than a million warships, and six different forces. Lin Yifan made a lot of money this time, these are the main warships, and they need a lot of materials to build.

The warships of the six empires were configured differently, and the number of personnel was also different. The number of people on each warship ranged from one thousand to one and a half thousand, adding up to more than a billion people.

In this battle, the enemy lost more than 1.8 million warships and the death toll was as high as 2 billion. This number seems terrifying, but compared to real Star Wars, it can only be a drop in the bucket.

The hegemonic forces have a regular main fleet, with a minimum establishment of 50 million warships. Even if you remove the robot-driven battleships, the remaining population is astronomical.

More than a million warships are easy to handle, and Lin Yifan can ask the Xingsheng to transform them all. But with a population of one billion, Lin Yifan didn't plan to put them in the base.

In order to arrange these captives, Lin Yifan specially contacted Princess Hongyu. After explaining the matter, Princess Hongyu readily agreed.

In the territory of the Hongyu Empire, there is a habiting star that cannot be developed. Apart from a few staff members, there are no people living on it.

This planet is very large, and its location is close to the hinterland of the Hongyu Empire. The environment on the planet is very good and very suitable for human habitation.

Lin Yifan sent people to take all the captives to that planet, and before landing on that planet, everyone had to go through a detailed investigation to determine their true identities before they could live on the planet.

One billion people, this is a huge number, and it cannot all be the common people of the colonized civilization. Through detailed investigations, it was found that five million were natives of those six empires.

These five million people were all officials in important positions, and it can be seen from this that the rulers did not fully trust these people.

As the commander and high-ranking officers of the battleship, they had long known that these people were sent by the lord of the country to spy on them, but even if they knew, they could only pretend to be stupid.

No commander would be stupid enough to expose them, and the commander would be in danger for himself and his family.

Lin Yifan was unrelenting, and directly ordered them to be thrown into space. Lin Yifan's ruthless methods also shocked the remaining officers and soldiers.

Although the spy personnel have been found out, it does not mean that Lin Yifan will completely trust the rest of the people.

Some of them may be bought by the Empire, and they will need to be carefully watched in the days to come. In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Lin Yifan has established a monitoring network on the planet.

There are thousands of covert reconnaissance satellites in the air and countless surveillance probes on land. Every move of these people is monitored by super artificial intelligence.

Of course, Lin Yifan didn't treat them like wrongful prisoners. The living environment is all arranged by Princess Hongyu, and it can be said that the environment here is even better than the current environment of their own home.

A billion people can't eat for nothing, they need to work. As battleship soldiers, they understand a lot of scientific knowledge and are a group of rare talents.

Princess Hongyu understood very well that Lin Yifan wanted to incorporate these people into the Hongyu Empire. I haven't told the captives about it yet, but I just want to observe it for a while.

These captives were also self-conscious, especially those commanders and high-ranking officers. They are all smart people, and they also guessed Lin Yifan's thoughts.

In fact, as long as Princess Hongyu is willing, they 100% agree to join the Hongyu Empire. The reason why they didn't take the initiative was that they were afraid that Lin Yifan and Princess Hongyu would not agree, and second, they had concerns.

Lin Yifan must know what their concerns are, this is human nature. In order to dispel their concerns, Lin Yifan decided to take all their family members over.

For this reason, Lin Yifan also held a special meeting for them. The first round of meetings was all about commanders and senior officers, and he wanted to see what the attitude of these officers was.

Lin Yifan put forward his idea at the meeting, and those commanders and high-level officials were very surprised and excited at the same time.

These officials began to believe Lin Yifan a little, and their families were all on the residential planet colonized by the Empire. Not only are there a lot of guards there, but there are also huge fleets in space.

As battleship soldiers, their family members and addresses have been recorded, and it is impossible to secretly pick up their family members.

But when they thought of Lin Yifan's advanced battle armor and combat mecha, they felt that he might be able to do it.

Thinking of this, those officials were all very excited. Their hometown was colonized, and many people had long wanted to leave that sad place, but the empire had always sent people to watch over their families, so that they did not dare to act rashly.

Now that Lin Yifan said that he could help them bring their families over, all of them were moved. If they can bring their families in, they will all be willing to settle on this planet.

If you want these people to join the Hongyu Empire with all their hearts, the only way to do this is to bring all their families. At the meeting, these officials expressed their willingness to join the Hongyu Empire.

They originally thought that they would be treated like prisoners, but they didn't expect Lin Yifan not only not to do this, but to rescue their families.

Those poor people who could not stand the oppression, as long as they had some conditions, left their hometowns. And those who have no conditions can only suffer silently.

As soon as the meeting was dismissed, the officials told their men the news, and the soldiers all howled excitedly.

There was no need for Lin Yifan to hold a meeting with these warriors at all, they all agreed to join the Hongyu Empire. Those warriors who had always been hostile in their hearts had all changed their mentality at this moment.

But after calming down, they were a little skeptical. Does Lin Yifan want to use their family members to achieve the purpose of control, so what is the difference between this and those lords.

For this reason, Princess Hongyu also promised them that as long as they sincerely joined the Hongyu Empire, they would never be treated as slaves.

Princess Hongyu's prestige is still very high, and the people of many countries have some understanding of her personality.

In addition, the suppression of pirates in the past two years and some of the good deeds she has done have made Princess Hongyu even more popular with the people, and these warriors still believe in her words.

Next, Lin Yifan asked everyone to report the details of their relatives to him, so that it would be convenient for him to take the rescue.

Seeing that Lin Yifan had started to act, the soldiers were very active, and they all reported the details and addresses of their relatives.

After obtaining these information, Lin Yifan immediately arranged for someone to investigate. There are at least three billion families of one billion people, which is a huge number.

These people are spread across tens of thousands of inhabited planets, and it will not be easy to rescue them all safely.
