The growth of the federal population makes many elders very satisfied.
Next, Ling Ruoxuan also made a report on technology.
It has completed the breakthrough of the distance barrier of the hyperspace engine and can travel 38 million light years in a single trip.
Coupled with the space particle reconstruction technology that has been mastered for a long time...
Today, the Federation is a veritable sixth-level technological civilization.
In fact, the Central Academy of Sciences is already working on the prerequisite technologies for seventh-level technological civilization.
However, it is hard to say when a breakthrough will be achieved.
Since completing the promotion to the sixth level of scientific and technological civilization, the Central Academy of Sciences has also achieved more results in space technology.
Not only space technology, but also time technology, with the efforts of the team led by Chu Yanxi, we have scratched the surface.
You know, normally, time technology is the iconic technology of the eighth-level civilization.
Although some civilizations with outstanding talents can scratch the surface and apply them briefly at the seventh-level civilization.
But in this universe, there has never been an example of a sixth-order civilization having access to time technology.
However, fundamentally speaking.
The earliest time the Federation came into contact with time technology was not now, but at the end of the fourth-order civilization and the old Federation.
However, Chu Yanxi could only build a rough time bubble at that time.
However, the technology at that time was not broken by herself, but by Professor Lin Fan.
But no matter what, even if the time bubble technology was not considered in the past, the departments that Chu Yanxi and others are now in contact with are completely obtained by themselves.
This also illustrates from the side that the excellence of the human race has accomplished something that no civilization has ever accomplished since the birth of the universe.
After reporting on the results of the past year, Ling Ruoxuan also talked about the preparations for the federal highest technology feast, which is held every ten years in three months and is now the fifth.
Since that high-level meeting fifty years ago, as part of the plan to improve the status of scientists, the federal science and technology feast once every ten years has been determined.
Each time, the Federation will introduce a large number of the latest scientific and technological achievements, and award various medals and awards to corresponding scientists or teams.
Those who have made outstanding contributions will be directly included in the federal textbooks.
Not only that, only the winners can choose a star system within the federation.
Then, the Federation will be responsible for building a very large virtual projection device and always projecting it in this star system to ensure that every passing spacecraft can see it.
This is the highest honor for every scientist.
Of course, the once-a-decade science and technology feast is only part of the plan to improve the status of scientists, and there are many other policies.
After combining them, the current status of scientists in the Federation is absolutely unparalleled.
So much so that the new generation of Federation people all dream of becoming scientists in the future.
------
Half an hour later.
Ling Ruoxuan finally finished speaking.
Next, it was Jiang Xingchen's turn.
Originally, even though Jiang Xingchen was already the deputy commander-in-chief of the military department, it was not his turn to participate in such high-level meetings.
After all, he is the second-in-command in the military, not the first-in-command.
However, Mu Zhengfeng claimed to be unwell and asked Jiang Xingchen to attend the meeting on his behalf.
Feeling unwell?
Don't tell me that you, Mu Zhengfeng, are now a fourth-level genetic enhancer, so you won't get sick at all.
Even if you take a step back and say you are really sick, even if you are lying in a hospital bed, it will not affect your ability to participate in the meeting.
You know, these days everyone is scattered in various galaxies, even galaxy groups, and all rely on remote access and virtual meetings.
Therefore, all the senior officials scoffed at Mu Zhengfeng's reasons.
However, no one said anything.
What is Mu Zhengfeng's plan? He is becoming a bunch of old foxes. Who can't tell?
He was paving the way for others to prepare for Jiang Xingchen to take over the military in the future.
Mu Zhengfeng intends to let Jiang Xingchen take over the military department and semi-retire himself as a senior advisor. This idea is not new now, but has been around for a long time.
The other top federal officials also knew this.
Therefore, they would not say anything when Mu Zhengfeng asked Jiang Xingchen to attend the meeting for this reason.
Sooner or later, let Jiang Xingchen get familiar with it in advance.
"Last year, the federal government commissioned 200,000 new warships and 278.5 billion new soldiers."
"The current federal fleet has a total of 6.9 million ships."
"There are 5.15 million battleships, including 800,000 Pangu II type battleships, 200,000 Pangu III type battleships, 300,000 Alda II type battleships, and 4 million Union II type battleships."
"The rest are a series of ancillary ships such as reconnaissance, supply, and transportation."
"Although the current number of Pangu battleships in the Federation has increased, it can still only be maintained at the million level, and the energy problem still needs to be solved."
"As for the affiliated civilizations, the number of warships in service is as high as 120 million, of which 80 million are United Type I warships and 40 million are United Type II warships."
"At the same time, the military department has also made adjustments to the organization of the federal fleet."
"The pioneering fleet will remain, but the organization will be changed to ten legions, and the number of fleets under each legion will also be changed from three to ten fleets."
"Cancel the establishment of the Elf Fleet and organize its 30 fleets into each legion."
"After the adjustment, the nine regular legions under the Pioneer Fleet, as well as the directly affiliated legions, will be composed of seven Pangu-class fleets and three Alda-class fleets."
"The next step is the defense fleet. In order to facilitate the operation of the fleet, according to the plan of the military department, the establishment of the defense fleet will be cancelled."
"At the same time, the federal core area fleet (i.e. the local galaxy group) and the Sculptor fleet will be newly built."
"In the future, every time the Federation takes over a new galaxy group, it will build a new fleet there..."
blah blah blah...
Jiang Xingchen also talked for a long time, and finally sat down after a full hour.
"Deputy Commander-in-Chief, I have a question. It is a good idea to build fleets according to galaxy groups, but after the rapid expansion of the federal territory, the number of fleets will become larger and more complicated."
"In this case, will it be inconvenient for overall management?"
Then, after each department completed its report, it entered into other questioning sessions.
Soon someone asked.
"This is indeed the case, but in the military ministry's federal fleet establishment plan, there is a level that has not yet been formally established, which is used to solve this problem."
"Can you tell me more about it?"
"Okay, in addition to the guard fleet at the galaxy cluster level, the military department also plans to establish a headquarters command system at the super galaxy cluster level."
"Supercluster level?"
"Yes, everyone should know that the Local Galaxy Group where our Milky Way is located, and the Sculptor Galaxy Group currently occupied by the Federation, both belong to a super galaxy cluster called Virgo."
Hearing this, everyone nodded.
Everyone has this bit of common sense.
Seeing this, Jiang Xingchen also continued to speak.
"The Virgo Supercluster spans 110 million light-years and contains hundreds of galaxy groups."
"The plan of the military department is that the fleet used for home defense will use the fleet at the galaxy group level as the most basic unit, and at the command level, these fleets will be under the command of the super galaxy cluster level headquarters."
"In the future, when the Federation takes over the entire Virgo Super Galaxy Cluster, the military will officially establish the Virgo Command."
"So the levels below the galaxy group, that is, the problems of galaxies or star systems, will be handed over to the Interstellar Channel Management Department."
"To put it simply, the Military Department is responsible for external affairs, and the Interstellar Channel Management Department is responsible for internal affairs."
With that said, everyone understands.
It is obvious that this plan of the military department is already preparing for the second phase or even the third phase of the federal plan.
After all, in the second phase of the federation, there is a plan to capture the entire Virgo within a hundred years.
In the third stage, there are plans to occupy at least three super-clusters.
Therefore, what Jiang Xingchen said was just for all this...
It's just planning the establishment of the federal fleet in advance.
