493. The growth of civilization (Part 2)
In fact, it is precisely because of the potential population explosion that Tang Xiao often puts the phrase "living space" in his mouth during meetings with Count Dooku.
The current population of Dawn Star Planet is 400 million, and this planet with a diameter of 4,900 kilometers is only one circle larger than the moon with a diameter of about 3,800 kilometers. If we want to ensure the current quality of life and ensure that the environment is not destroyed on a large scale, then the population on Dawn Star Planet cannot exceed 1 billion.
This is the result of the calculation that Star Ring of Dawn Star Planet has been completed, and almost all heavy and polluting industries have been placed on Star Ring.
Because in this matter, there is also a potential ethnic issue involved-Ewok.
With the gradual civilization of Ewok, their population has gradually increased to more than 5 million. When batches of Ewok who have received systematic education enter the society, they will gradually pay attention to this issue.
They would view humans and other races as outsiders, invaders occupying their planet. Although Tang Xiao has committed to solving this problem through cultural assimilation, there is no guarantee that no one will think so. Once such ideas sprout, they are difficult to eradicate, and are likely to cause racial strife on the planet.
In fact, this is also the reason why Tang Xiao has not awakened and cultivated other races except Salarian and Gnoll so far. Even Gnoll was cultivated as a vassal of Salarian.
Therefore, we must shift our attention, take everyone's attention away from the small Dawn Star Planet, and put it into the vast galaxy.
This is living space.
The expansion of Kuna Cluster is only the first step. Currently, Fourth Civilization has established a stable colony in Kuna's Tooth Planet and has begun to absorb a large number of immigrants from other planets. As the atmosphere modification work of Kuna's Tooth Planet begins, the living conditions of the planet are gradually improving. Now there is no need to wear a respirator when going out for a short time.
The current number of residents of Kuna's Tooth Planet has increased to more than 4 million, the vast majority of whom are from other races. But Tang Xiao is already letting Kuna Sector's governor Volgograd-Kanidi implement a new immigration plan, which will gradually immigrate 50 million human residents from Dawn Star Planet in the next five years.
The main task of these immigrants now is to expand, expand, and expand again.
The immigration of these human residents is not to implement racist policies by Fourth Civilization, but to prepare for the cultural assimilation of immigrants of other races through these human residents, so that these people can truly become members of Fourth Civilization. Because Kuna Cluster will serve as the main immigrant-receiving area of Fourth Civilization, the immigrant population here is expected to exceed 200 million people in the next five years.
At the same time, during the previous war with Ayrou, the prison planet Sonell Planet, which was taken over from Ayrou, will continue to exist as a prison planet. In addition to expanding the prison planet's prison, a barracks that is actually not much different from a prison will be built on the planet.
Because it has been implementing a quasi-war policy, Fourth Civilization's army has been growing like a snowball.
At present, the number of the Fourth Civilization Army has reached 2 million, and 8 Infantry Division and 6 Mechanized Infantry Division have been established. Fourth Civilization currently does not have a dedicated armored division, but each Infantry Division is subordinate to one Armored Regiment, and Mechanized Infantry Division is subordinate to two Armored Regiment.
At the same time, each division has a strength of 20,000 men and 10 regiments. Among them, 10,000 are natural persons and the other 10,000 are robots, mainly B-1 combat robots and B-2 super combat robots. The combat groups composed of these robots will be responsible for some charge or near-death missions, while the natural human combat groups will be responsible for the main attack tasks.
The reason why the coverage rate of armored units is so low is mainly because Fourth Civilization has been expanding its army and expanding its army. All arsenals are serving the ever-increasing army, and there is simply not enough productivity to make the equipment of these armies better.
This is also the reason why Fourth Civilization Army did not undergo a third change of equipment after the second overall change of M-15 Defender assault rifle and Liberator combat suit - because the population is constantly adopting Cryo-embryo, and the snowball growth continues, and naturally the army is too.
If everyone is detailed, then what Fourth Civilization has to do is to solve a series of problems such as food rations, housing, education, employment, production, training, and equipment for every citizen who grows up in Cryo-embryo within five years. The extremely short growth cycle of Cryo-embryo has also brought great pressure on productivity. So far, Fourth Civilization has been able to handle these problems well, which is already very good.
Tang Xiao also understands why the number of Cryo-embryo carried on the mothership is only 5 billion, because if there were more, the population explosion would be simply unimaginable, and even simply too much to bear.
Human beings are very capable of reproducing. If we directly give you 5 billion young adults, a planet as big as the Earth will explode in less than 30 years.
According to the predictions of General Army General Xian Hui, currently Fourth Civilization Army can basically guarantee a huge advantage against the natural soldiers of Galactic Republic. But General Xian Hui judged based on the plot information provided by Tang Xiao, and he raised a very serious question, that is, the trump card in Galactic Republic's hand - Clone Army.
The cultivation model of the Clone Army is similar to that of the Fourth Legion secretly established by Tang Xiao. However, because the content of Fourth Civilization's combat database is thousands of years older than that of Peace, almost all relevant combat information is The lost Galactic Republic is much more comprehensive. The combat experience of the Clone Army will be slightly inferior to the Fourth Legion in the early stage, but they will basically be invincible against the ordinary army of Fourth Civilization.
Galactic Republic's Clone Army has about 3 million. This army will be led by Jedi Knight in the future and become the sharp knife-like force of Galactic Republic. Although placed on the battlefield of the entire galaxy, these 3 million people are very few, but if used for breakthroughs in some key areas, they will be a terrifying force.
Not to mention that with the productivity of Galactic Republic, the equipment of the Clone Army will undoubtedly be the best! Every soldier will be armed to the teeth! Compared with Fourth Civilization, who has been constantly choosing and having headaches between quantity and quality, it is simply the difference between a rich man and a loser.
Because of the existence of hyperspace channels, this Clone Army can fight everywhere in a short period of time, destroying resistance in one theater after another.
Tang Xiao understands that in this Clone Wars in the original plot, this is how Confederacy of Independent Systems started from taking a huge advantage in the early stage and then lost the war step by step.
Moreover, Lieutenant General Cheng Shitao has also conducted a series of combat simulations. The result of the simulation is that if Galactic Republic invests 300,000 to 500,000 Clone Army into Dawn Star Planet, then the resistance of Fourth Civilization will be destroyed.
General Xian Hui told Tang Xiao that such a situation must be avoided. In other words, Confederacy of Independent Systems must be allowed to withstand Galactic Republic's main offensive. Otherwise, Fourth Civilization's size cannot withstand Galactic Republic's full blow!
The power gap in this war is so huge!
But... we must fight! And win!
