According to the post-war inventory, a total of four Zhurong-class battleships of the First Fleet were severely damaged in this battle, 379 mechas were lost, and 89 pilots were killed.
On the contrary, more people died on the fleet side.
Although no battleships were destroyed, the four severely damaged and paralyzed battleships were invaded by ghosts, causing abnormal offensive and defensive battles within the four ships. More than 2,000 people were killed, and there were thousands of minor and serious casualties.
then...
After some friendly interrogation, and even feeding these ghosts some illegal drugs...
Jiang Xingchen got the information he wanted.
Since she could not be sure that she could win 100%, Nastasha did not fight out with the ghost fleet from the very beginning, but stayed in a small ghost reconnaissance ship.
Finally, when the Ghost Fleet and the Federation Fleet started fighting and everyone's attention was no longer on the Bryant star system, they sneaked away.
After all, every ghost battleship was killed, and the battle was extremely fierce.
At this time, how can the Federation fleet scan the interior of the star system?
Now, it has been more than an hour since Nastasha left. According to the ghost's jump technology, this is enough for them to complete seven or eight jumps.
Without knowing the direction of the jump and having traveled hundreds of light years, it is no longer possible to intercept it.
Next, we can only continue searching in Nastasha's territory.
Find its whereabouts and the remaining ghost battleships, and annihilate them.
And at the same time.
A referendum is taking place within the Federation.
A referendum on whether to accept the elves as a member of the Federation rather than as a subordinate civilization.
Speaking of which, in order to deal with the ghost crisis.
Now the home of the elves, the Silvi star system, has been requisitioned by the Federation and turned into an outpost.
After persuasion from the top leaders of the Federation, before the ghosts were completely destroyed, Vilodis also agreed to temporarily move the elves to the territory of the Federation.
During this process, Suhe even made a proposal to Bilodis to completely join the Federation.
Naturally, Vilodis had no reason to refuse this proposal.
After all, this is much better than being an affiliate.
However, if you want to admit a race into the federation, it's not just Su He's nod. After all, the elves are a foreign civilization, right?
Therefore, the Federation launched a referendum, and Bilodis also worked hard to pass the referendum.
A large number of elves were sent to each federal administrative star to give various speeches, publicity, performances, etc., almost every day was different.
If you want to ask, who are the ten most popular female stars in the Federation now?
I'm sorry, no human beings are really ranked, and the elf girls just dominate the list.
In fact, let alone the top ten most popular, even if it is one of the hundred, it is difficult for humans to squeeze into it.
However, the referendum on the direct integration of the elves into the Federation was not smooth sailing.
After all, there is a group that still feels a huge crisis because of the existence of elves.
Over there is...
Female group.
Seeing that all the men around you are crazy about elves, can girls not be anxious?
Even in many married families, some tigresses show off their power directly.
"If you dare to vote for the elf, then you can sleep on the floor from now on!"
If it weren't for the fact that the elves have a total population of 500 million, I am afraid that all human women would have staged a death remonstrance.
In the end, the elves did not get an absolute majority of votes in the referendum as many people expected, but only received 57% of the votes, barely passing the referendum.
But, no matter what, it’s good, anyway...
The elves were finally integrated into the Federation.
Of course, Bélodice did not forget about the success of the referendum.
She knows very well that there are still many things that the elves need to do if they want to truly integrate into the Federation.
And one of the most important things is...
------
Alpha vi.
presidential palace.
"Chief Bilodis, are you saying that you want the elves to join the federal military system?"
"Yes, after all, the Federation is about to face a full-scale war with ghosts, and we elves and ghosts have a never-ending relationship, so..."
"I understand what you mean, but I also want to be honest. After all, the elves have just joined the Federation. Many things still need to be done step by step. There is no need to rush."
Su He nodded and said.
His meaning is actually very simple. Although the elves have joined the Federation, it is still too early to say that they have completely integrated.
The army is the most important pillar of the federation, so it would be better for the elves to wait until they are fully integrated before taking this step.
Bilodis naturally understood what Su He said.
If I were in his position, I would definitely think about it this way.
"President, I understand everything you said, so we elves will not ask for the establishment of a fleet or anything for the time being."
"What do you mean?"
"We started from the most basic, hoping that the Federation would allow the elves to form a legion similar to mobile infantry, which could follow the fleet and fight against the ghosts."
"Is this so..."
Hearing this, Su He also weighed it up.
It means allocating a group of battleships to the elves and letting them form an elf fleet, or letting the elves join the decision-making level of the military department.
These things are not realistic for the time being.
As mentioned before, after the elves join the federation, everyone still needs a familiarization process. Many things cannot begin until the elves are completely integrated.
Otherwise, even if he is relieved, other senior executives will not be relieved either.
However, it is not impossible to just form a legion similar to mobile infantry.
After all, the nature of a motorized infantry regiment is completely different from that of a fleet, and...
It seems that I can take advantage of this opportunity to try what my daughter said before?
At this time, Su He also remembered several plans that Su Yingxue had submitted before.
On integrating biotechnology and federal technology...
Biological combat armor program.
Bioenergy plan.
There is also a biological warship plan!
First, use the biological combat armor project as a pilot project to form a legion similar to mobile infantry using elves.
On the one hand, it appeases the elves, and on the other hand, it lays the foundation for the bioenergy and biowarship plans?
"Chief Bilodis, I already understand the demands of the elves, but I need to discuss this matter with other senior officials and the military before I can give you an answer."
After some weighing, Su He said.
"I see!"
------
Three days later.
The plan for biological combat armor was officially launched in the Academy of Sciences.
At the same time, hundreds of elven scientists also stationed themselves in the Academy of Sciences.
Many people even discovered that a new organization had been established in the military department.
