Survival of the Stars: Rise of the Fourth Scourge

After saying that, Brooke looked at Wood Stevens

Seems to be questioning, said: "The universe is vast and boundless, why should we stare at "S-01888"? Two years is enough for us to do a lot of things, if this war did not trap us in the S-01820 star system, said Maybe we have found a better source of rare minerals."

Facing Brook's gaze, Stanley Wood fell silent.

It's not that he didn't realize this, but when he realized it, it was already too late.

Sometimes, once a step is taken, it is very difficult to take it back.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dignified, Wendell on the side quickly interjected: "Brook, now is not the time to talk about these things. Everything has pros and cons. You are right, and the chairman of the council is not necessarily wrong. Moreover, sometimes the council There is nothing the governor can do because it is a parliamentary decision."

"Besides, there is no medicine for regret in the world. Now we can only advance, not retreat, let alone stand still."

Brooke is not ignorant of this truth.

Indeed, what was done has been done.

Everything he said is just a fork in time, whether it is right or wrong, no one knows.

He was not complaining, but took this opportunity to remind the chairman of the council.

What kind of path should the "UNSC" take, we must think clearly.

Without saying anything more, Brook said: "There is still time, no matter whether this news is useful or not, telling Leo at least can make him prepare."

Seeing that the heavy topic was finally over, Stanley Wood was also relieved.

He hadn't thought about what Brook said.

In the past two years, he also thought about whether it was the right decision to fight a foreign war too early.

Without this war, would the territorial construction of "UNSC" have fully blossomed?

Rare minerals are precious, but with the size of the Milky Way, better ones can always be found.

Why waste energy launching a war in the early stage when development is most needed.

Although he thought about it, he never thought about rescinding the war decision.

"UNSC" has embarked on the road of war, and all governors and councilors are preparing for the upcoming war.

It is impossible for him to dampen the enthusiasm of the governor's members at this time.

Some things, since they are already moving forward on the road of war, they will never stop.

Standing up, Wood Stevens said, "Let's do this, Brooke. I'll leave this matter to you. Send a letter to Leo immediately."

Nodding in response, Brook stood up and hurried out.

It wasn't until Brook left the room that Wendell turned to look at the chairman of the council who got up.

With a wave of his hand, Wood Steven stopped what Wendell wanted to say.

"I know what you want to say. Brook is right. After this war is over, the "UNSC" must formulate a far-sighted development plan. This hasty foreign war can't be wrong, but it can't go anywhere. We The only good news is that we still have time to make corrections, pull "UNSC" back from the wrong path, and put "UNSC" on the right path."

Is "UNSC" wrong?

Wendell doesn't think so.

In a big environment like the Milky Way, the law of survival is that the weak eat the strong, and the big fish eat the small fish.

If you find precious resources, you must grab them and fight for them to gain benefits.

Don't fight, don't grab, can you get the benefits you want with just one mouth?

The Milky Way is not the earth, and the relationship between human forces will not be the relationship between countries.

Although the Milky Way is large, if human beings meet face to face, there will never be so-called peaceful coexistence.

Either be wiped out, absorbed, or driven away, there is no fourth option.

"UNSC" may be a bit radical, but as long as it occupies the S-01888 star system, everything is worth it.

The development of the star system and the construction of the territory can be delayed.

But a resource point rich in rare minerals must not be delayed.

With rare minerals, there are trade coins.

With trade currency, there is more advanced technology.

With more advanced technology, "UNSC" can develop faster.

In Wendell's view, compared to the rare mineral resources of the S-01888 star system, wasting two or three years is totally worth it.

"Go to the combat situation center, calculate the time, the fleet should be here soon..."

In the past two years, "UNSC" has not done nothing.

Many navigation beacons were built along the way from the S-01820 star system to the direction of the S-01888 star system.

One is that it can guide the fleet more accurately, allowing the fleet to sail at a faster speed in the jump space.

Second, it can be used as a signal transfer station to reduce communication delays.

In the past, the communication between the S-01820 star system and the S-01888 star system required more than ten days.

And now it only takes nine hours.

……

The starry sky is vast, dark yet full of stars.

In slipspace, everything is blue.

The fleet seemed to be traveling through a channel formed by the blue aurora.

Looking further ahead, there is only the blue aurora, and there is no end in sight.

"Governor Leo, we are about to arrive at the star system S-01888, and leave the jump space in 13 minutes..."

The reminder from Alansha made Leo's expression fluctuate.

After more than two years, he is about to return to the S-01888 star system again.

Recalling what happened two years ago, Leo couldn't help clenching his fists.

Alansa: "There is a communication request from Governor Kaisen, Governor Brian!"

Turning around and returning to the captain's chair, Leo said, "Connect!"

As the blue light flickered, two virtual figures appeared on the communication platform.

It's Kayson and Brian.

As soon as he appeared, Kaisen asked, "I'm about to arrive in the S-01888 star system. Do you have any battle plan?"

Bryan said: "The shipboard weapons of the firm-class frigate are a magnetic acceleration gun and various anti-ship missiles, which are suitable for close-range combat. Once entering the S-01888 star system, you must be the first to find the position of the enemy fleet. Then short jumps for close quarters combat."

Leo agreed with Brian's words.

He nodded lightly and said: "Governor Bryan is right. The firm-class frigate is suitable for close-range wolf pack tactics. Once it leaves the jump space, the whole ship will open the scanning array to detect the situation in the S-01888 star system. Once the enemy fleet is found, Immediately make a short-distance jump, and directly enter the field for close-range combat. The attack must be fierce and the firepower must be concentrated. The opponent has three warships, and we also have three people. Each person is responsible for one, 5V1, and the firepower is sufficient."
