Cleaning the battlefield was still an arduous task. The orbital station was completely destroyed and lost its value. The power furnace itself and the fuel inside are actually not valuable. What is precious is the Le Mans grains contained in the fuel. However, this kind of crystal grains are endless on Planet 4.
What needs to be cleaned up are the wreckage of the Federation starship and the crew members scattered in space. Federation starship crews are equipped with first-level battle armor, whose specifications are much higher than ordinary civilian battle armor and can survive in space for at least 12 hours. Whether it was a heavy cruiser or two heavily damaged light cruisers, a large number of crew members were thrown into space. Whether it is from a humanitarian or profit perspective, the test subjects feel that they should be rescued.
In addition, the three cruisers were severely damaged, and there were scattered structures and equipment everywhere. There were many large pieces of wreckage, and there may be equipment that could be recycled. And the wreckage itself can be refined again, and a large amount of high-grade alloys and even rare elements can be obtained.
Debris and wreckage were scattered all over the sky, and Chu Jungui only had one dining knife and two engineering transport ships in his hands. Fortunately, Kaitian's computing power is now quite powerful, and that eye is an artifact in this environment. His eyes scanned the surroundings and locked 2,300 valuable targets, and then filtered them out again according to importance and urgency. More than 500 priority targets are compiled, and the optimal recovery sequence and route are compiled according to the movement trajectories of these targets. The next thing to do is to implement this plan.
The recovery work lasted for 30 hours, and the two transport ships had to return to the base separately in the middle of the process to unload the recovered surviving crew members.
Many more sailors survived than expected, and more than 2,000 survivors were recovered in the blink of an eye. It seems that the Federation starship is indeed unique in terms of survival. Although the explosion is violent, the survival rate of the crew is quite high.
Chu Jungui also attaches great importance to these crew members. He learned from Li Ruobai that the personnel in the starship fleet were also divided into three, six or nine levels. Previously, those Lancers, Jolly Roger, etc. were all planetary marines. These two legions were also mixed legions of starships and planetary ground troops. Compared with other legions of the Federation, they were elite, but compared with pure starships The fleet is not good enough in comparison.
Just like the home planet era, the air force is more elite than the army, and the air force of the air force is also more elite than the army's air force. Therefore, the average quality of the crew of this batch of starships is higher than that of the Lancers and Jolly Roger. It costs a lot of money to train such warriors. Naturally, Chu Jungui will not miss it.
The federal fleet withdrew without leaving any rescue. In fact, it was equivalent to abandoning all these survivors. In the future, this group of people will surely be listed as killed or missing in the federation. Just like Wilson and Ronald, there should be no problem in recruiting these survivors.
After cleaning the battlefield, Chu Jungui returned to the base. This time, the blow to the Federation was heavy enough, and I thought that no one would be able to trouble me any more in a while. The key is to mobilize a larger fleet to attack a small boat. No matter how you look at it, it is a sign of strategic confusion. Unless you are forced to a certain point, no one will be willing to swim in this troubled water again.
Moreover, even if there is such a madman, the test subjects also have a clue to deal with it.
At this time, Base 2 and Doomsday Shadow were both busy. The entire production area was brightly lit, and soldiers were coming and going in a hurry. They were so busy that they had no time to say hello to each other even when they passed each other.
The mastermind will constantly assign tasks to each person's personal terminal. All soldiers know what they have to do today and tomorrow, and what work should be completed at what time point.
Every time Chu Jungui forms a big design plan, the mastermind will automatically break it down into countless small tasks, and then assign them to everyone. At the same time, it will also monitor everyone's status and let those who are overtired take a break in time.
Although the Cambrian is old and outdated, if it were placed in the home star era, its computing power would be equivalent to the supercomputer of half a planet. It is more than enough to handle the task distribution of a base with only 10,000 people, not to mention that two Cambrian machines are running in parallel.
The real tasks of these two master brains are to analyze the properties of materials and design various equipment. However, this is a bit beyond their capabilities, and it takes the addition of the Spark Biological Master Brain to barely be able to cope with it.
Now the two bases have entered the mode of fully expanding their production capacity. If they produce all power furnaces in one day, they can produce 35 power furnaces, with an additional power of more than 10 million kilowatts. With the energy, they can fully produce refining furnaces in a single day. The new material processing capacity exceeds 1,000 tons; there is energy, materials, and finally the manufacturing machine. In this way, every three days as a cycle, the productivity of the base can be increased by 25%.
After temporarily repelling the federal fleet, Chu Jungui was free to arrange a new cycle of productivity improvement.
At this moment, 15 light-years away, there is a huge mobile base floating. Its appearance is both ferocious and strangely beautiful, fully displaying the dark Gothic style. This base can accommodate 100,000 people, and is larger than the two bases of the Ninth Fleet combined.
In the command hall on the upper level of the base, a majestic-looking old man stood on a high platform. In front of him was a huge star map with a diameter of fifty meters. In front of this star map covering the entire war zone, human beings are as small as ants.
The old man looked at the star map silently, and after a moment he slowly spoke: "The progress of suppressing the Ninth Fleet has been slowed down by 5% this week. Did you encounter any difficulties in the battle?"
Several figures appeared on both sides of the old man. One of them, a middle-aged man, bowed slightly and said: "The Ninth Fleet has been counterattacking a lot recently. In addition, there have been many outstanding generals, individual starship commanders and fighter pilots among them. The officers performed at an extraordinary level. However, we also discovered many outstanding young generals. For example, Admiral Gamble, he successfully raided two bases of the Ninth Fleet and completely destroyed them. Therefore, he also successfully killed the youngest member of the Federation. The admiral’s record was broken by two days.”
The old man's face softened slightly and he said, "Gamble? I know him. He is a very ambitious guy. But it is a good thing for young people to be ambitious."
Seeing that the old man's anger had subsided, the middle-aged man quickly said: "Although our progress is 5% slower than expected, it is still within the plan, and there is a very large redundancy. Even according to the current progress, we will Use up all the supplies of the Ninth Fleet within three months, let them shed the last drop of blood, and then enter the fourth month when we harvest. The task given to us by the Joint Military Conference Committee is 12 months."
The old man nodded and said: "Maintain contact and continue to launch small-scale operations. Since they want to delay time, we will cause them enough wounds. The Ninth Fleet is a ferocious beast, and we cannot be careless even now. However, , no matter how ferocious a beast is, there will be a time when its blood dries up."
"Your Excellency is wise!"
