Afterward, Admiral Sylvester brought out a whole package of fortress expansion plans. In addition to completing Section F of Sade Major, which had been hurled out as a "cosmic log," the plans included twelve hangar platforms and four groups of arrayed turrets. And this was only the first phase, which had to be completed within a month.
With a first phase, naturally there were also second and third phases.

It was a barren, frozen planet, with a thin atmosphere and a thick layer of ice covering its entire surface. It also had a huge base, a relic left behind from when the Galactic Empire ruled the Far Shore Nebula.
The senior Sylvester's idea was to reactivate the base and station at least two divisions there. Then they could install fortress guns on the ice. That way, if the Imperial fleet attacked Sade Major, it would fall neatly within the range of their crossfire.
Of course, if the enemy fleet attacked Sade-4, even if it tried to carry out a low-orbit bombardment, their arrayed turrets would be sure to catch it at its most vulnerable flank.

Of course, there was nothing wrong with the Changshan serpent, as long as no one mistook it for some kind of tactical trump card. In any case, if they could really build the heavy-gun base on Planet 4, it could at least
