Earth, Federal Presidential Palace.
"Has everyone read the report?"
Lin Zhen looked at the staff in the conference room with a cold expression.
He was in a very bad mood at the moment. He was in a good mood yesterday when he received news from Lin Fan that he had captured Proxima and wiped out all 60,000 Oakes Empire battleships.
But when I saw the content behind the report, I immediately became angry!
Proxima Centauri turned out to have a huge number of rapists, helping Oakes Empire to manage nearly one billion humans. Moreover, these rapists were all former Second Fleet people. To be precise, they were all Second Fleet Sterling Family's people and their cronies.
Sure enough, this Sterling Family is a cancer!
"President, I suggest you keep this matter secret. After all, the impact on Federal Fleet's reputation will be too bad!"
A staff member said this, and several staff members nearby even nodded slightly to express their agreement with this view. This made Lin Zhen extremely angry!
Just when he was about to say something, Ed spoke first.
"Hide it? How to hide it? Hundreds of millions of survivors are there. Are you going to never let them return to Earth? Or are you going to simply kill them all and silence them? Are you still hiding it?"
"I"
The staff member who was scolded by Ed was speechless for a moment.
Yes, Ed is right. How can you hide something that hundreds of millions of people know? Do you really want to silence yourself? Stop joking!
Looking at several staff members who lowered their heads, Ed continued to speak.
"Not only do we not hide it, we also take the initiative to speak out, and we hold public trials and public executions for those rapists headed by Horn Sterling! At the same time, we also want to mold Lin Fan into a new hero!"
"With this operation, even if Federal Fleet's reputation has been somewhat damaged, by shaping Lin Fan into a hero, this part of the reputation can be restored, and it can also be improved in turn!"
"Similarly, we have to take the initiative to reveal everything about the Sterling family. Although it will cause an uproar, since the president has uprooted his entire family, we can take advantage of the situation and promote it as the new life of the Federation!"
A group of staff below listened to Ed's plan, and they were all dumbfounded.
This not only solves the public's crisis of trust in Federal Fleet, but more importantly, this operation will push Lin Zhen's reputation to the highest position among all previous presidents.
People will think about this: such a big cancer has existed in the federation for so long. What were the previous presidents doing? Are they all in cahoots with the Sterling Family?
Moreover, after Lin Zhen came to power, he activated Liang Xingchen and blocked Oakes Empire. Now he has conquered the territory and uprooted this big cancer family!
With these great achievements, how can Lin Zhen's reputation not be overwhelming!
As long as we find the right time to reveal that Lin Fan is Lin Zhen's son, then even if Lin Zhen says he wants to amend federal laws and serve as president for several more decades, I'm afraid not many people will object!
"What do you think of Vice President's suggestion?"
Lin Zhen, who was in the first place, looked at the staff below and spoke slowly.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you. After whispering for a while, they all expressed their approval.
"Okay, since everyone agrees, this matter is settled. Ed is responsible for the specific operations!"
"Okay, no problem!"
"Well, let's move on to the next topic, about Proxima"
——
4.22 light years away, First Fleet is extremely busy at this time.
There are a lot of problems waiting to be solved, such as temporary resettlement of 530 million people, food distribution, medical assistance, etc.
Fortunately, there is still a lot of food in Proxima A and the fortresses in orbit. Even if they are allowed to eat, these 500 million people will still have no problems in 1 or 2 years.
And the old man also said that he would let Bull-class Supply Ship transport a large number of relevant personnel and materials as quickly as possible!
Although there is no existential crisis, the work is still heavy, especially the medical aspect has been overwhelmed.
After all, such a large population has been abused for sixteen years. Many people suffer from various problems, and many are missing arms and legs.
The aircraft carrier transports people from Resource Star to Proxima A one after another. After all, it is the only Life Planet on the entire Star System. People from the Oakes Empire have built a lot of residences on the planet.
Although these houses are very unconventional to human concepts, they are still able to protect them from wind and rain, right? It's okay to settle down for the time being.
However, it is not easy to transfer. Each aircraft carrier, after emptying all the mechas, can only transport about 300,000 people at a time!
The entire fleet has a total of 2,000 aircraft carriers. Except for the ten fleets stationed at Star Path, 1,000 aircraft carriers can be used, which can transport 300 million people at a time.
Don't worry, you can transport everyone twice, but the real time-consuming and labor-intensive thing is getting on and off the boat!
The aircraft carrier cannot directly descend to the planet to pick up people. It can only rely on Assault Ship to continuously transport people to the aircraft carrier. Each Assault Ship only has 20 aircraft carriers, and each Assault Ship can only carry 300 people.
Therefore, in the end, Lin Fan only arranged for 300 aircraft carriers to participate in the transportation plan. After more than 20 hours, it was only possible to transfer 100 million people to Proxima A.
"Commander, there is a message from Fourth Fleet that they have recaptured Barnard's Star and wiped out all 10,000 warships of its defenders!"
"Well, it's expected. With our current combat power, as long as we don't run into the Oakes Empire's legion of hundreds of thousands of battleships, there won't be any problem! Help me connect to Commander Liang's communication!"
"It's been connected!"
"Commander Liang, how is the situation over there?"
"Hey, it didn't take much effort to eliminate the defenders of the Oakes Empire, but more than 200 million surviving humans were found here and were used as coolies! Now we are doing our best to rescue them! How are you doing there?"
"The situation here is even more serious than yours. There are 530 million human survivors. Currently, the entire fleet, except for those defending Star Path, is participating in the rescue!"
"Well, it seems that the plan to recapture Epsilon Eridani will be postponed for at least a month. There are too many things that need to be dealt with here!"
"No, Commander Liang! The purpose of my search for you this time is to prepare to leave immediately Epsilon Eridani. Take Proxima as an example. Before we came, tens of thousands of humans died every day due to overwork or hunger. Epsilon Eridani Every day we delay, a large number of humans die. We can't afford to delay! Humans can't afford to delay!"
"What are you going to do?"
"My idea is this. We each leave 10,000 warships for rescue and resettlement work, and wait for the supplies and personnel from the base camp to arrive. At the same time, we each lead 10,000 warships to attack Epsilon Eridani!"
"I think it will work. Let's calculate the distance from Epsilon Eridani. After calculating the time, we will arrange to set off and arrive at the same time!"
"Okay, let's do it like this!"
Ten hours later, the first to tenth fleets First Fleet had gathered together in the void!
"Distribute the coordinates to all battleships and activate Warp Drive Engine for the entire fleet!"
"Commander, the coordinate distribution has been completed. The entire fleet Warp Drive Engine has been activated and is ready to go!"
"Leap!"
