Chang Wei and Zhong Kai have been teleported to the "Hyperion" on the back of Neptune, and the Cybertron "Ark", "Gorgon" class battlecruiser and super mothership "Infinity" have also been deployed here by Chang Wei.
Next, they will have some discussions here, and after confirming the destination, they will set sail towards the starry sky and establish their own military factories, star ports and logistics support bases in a stable star system.
Although the current Light Chaser fleet is not very large, it is still a good idea to make early preparations for the future.
At the meeting convened by Chang Wei, the captains and commanders of the major warships engaged in heated debate and discussion on the issue of where to build the fleet base.
Due to the suddenness of the incident, the Light Chaser Fleet hadn't collected or explored star maps, so they simply fed the galaxy observation maps discovered by Earth's human astronomy into the supercomputer. It then automatically analyzed the relevant galaxies suitable for establishing a base and marked them using the ABCD system.
The Hyperion's captain, Matt Horner, was the first to speak. "I think we should choose System A as our base. The planetary orbits within it are relatively close together, making it easier to dispatch supplies and personnel, and enabling faster responses to various emergency transport deployments."
Infinity's captain, Thomas Lasky, shook his head and said, "I disagree! System A, while conveniently located, has relatively few resources and can't meet our fleet's future production and logistical needs. We should choose System B, which is rich in resources and boasts nine planets, making it ideal for building a large base and numerous supporting facilities."
Infinity's first officer, Armstrong, naturally sided with his captain. He nodded and said, "I agree with Captain Thomas. System B boasts rich mineral resources and vast space, making it ideal for building a fleet production base and logistics support base. Furthermore, we can solve the problem of material dispatch by increasing transportation routes."
Matt Horner frowned, then pointed at the galaxy map and said, "But Galaxy B's planetary orbit is quite remote. The distance between its aphelion and perihelion is 39 times greater than the star's! And right next to it, there's a growing black hole. While it's currently at a safe distance, there's no telling when it might suddenly expand and swallow it whole!"
Thomas Lasky replied, "You have a point, but we can solve the problem of material dispatch by increasing our transport fleet and stockpiling supplies. We can also establish corresponding measurement and early warning mechanisms to monitor the black hole. Most importantly, the resource advantages of Galaxy B can provide a better development platform for our fleet."
Swan put his hands on his hips and nodded. "Although transporting supplies to Galaxy B is more difficult and there are certain safety risks, it is indeed rich in resources, there is no doubt about that. I also think that we should choose a relatively resource-rich galaxy."
At this moment, the Gorgon captain, who had been silent for a long time, began to speak: "Actually, I think we must pay attention to the issue of potential security risks. We can't just consider the current abundance of resources, we also need to consider long-term development in the future. Perhaps... we can consider other galaxies as a compromise, such as... Galaxy C?"
After intense debate and discussion, the captains and commanders remained divided, unable to reach a consensus. As the fleet's supreme commander, Chang Wei had the final say.
However, he did not act arbitrarily. Instead, he listened carefully to many suggestions, began to summarize the views of all parties, and proposed a compromise plan.
"Alright! Based on everyone's opinions, I've decided to choose Galaxy C as the starport base and logistics support base for the Light Chaser Fleet. It has convenient transportation, abundant resources, and a relatively safe environment. This is enough for us to grow and develop for a long time."
The captains and commanders of the major warships thought about it for a while and gradually accepted Chang Wei's compromise plan. Although not everyone was completely satisfied, they all thought it was a relatively balanced and feasible option.
Moreover, through this discussion meeting, Chang Wei was able to see his subordinates more thoroughly and clearly.
After much discussion, all the captains and commanders demonstrated independent thinking and strong opinions. Despite differing opinions, they ultimately worked out a moderate yet feasible plan for the fleet's construction through discussion and compromise.
Every word, every action, every expression, was clearly visible. This...was definitely not something an NPC in a game could do. Chang Wei was certain that these people, created by the system...were real people!
Thinking of this, Chang Wei couldn't help but look towards his brother, Zhong Kai, because he was the second "natural person" in the entire fleet besides himself.
However, Zhong Kai's expression now looks a little lonely.
Chang Wei seemed to have thought of something, and then gave orders to everyone, starting the fleet to make a superluminal jump towards Galaxy C.
After dealing with the current matters, Chang Wei walked to Zhong Kai and asked him with concern.
"Why? Are you reluctant to leave Earth? If you want, I can send you back right now."
Zhong Kai sighed.
"It's okay, just a little bit sad. You know my family. My mother died of illness when I was young, and my father is a scoundrel in the village. He basically doesn't care about me. Even now, he spends all day playing cards and wandering the streets. He didn't even know I was abducted to northern Myanmar and didn't care at all."
"That's also why I had to go out to work after graduating from high school. Because I didn't want to stay in that house!"
"But, after all, this is where I was born and raised. Feeling this way now, I guess it's hard to leave my hometown, right?"
In fact, Chang Wei also felt the same way, but he did not show it because a commander could not show weakness in front of his subordinates.
Chang Wei smiled slightly, patted Zhong Kai on the shoulder and said.
"If the Earth is a cradle, then humans are babies born in it. Babies grow and grow, gradually becoming adults. They learn to roll over, crawl, walk, and talk. They learn right from wrong, experience warmth and cold, and understand life and death."
"But one day, mankind will leave the cradle and head for the sea of stars!"
"It's just that now, with our sci-fi fleet, we are a billion steps ahead of everyone else."
"And, in the future, our steps won't stop! Because... we've grown up! We've learned what responsibility is, realized what life is, and know what faith is!"
"Our future will also be even more exciting!"
