Chapter 106 Building the City of Suao

The battlecruiser Sacred Falcon, along with the frigate Thea and the Great Que, sailed out of the broken warp bubble. This is also the first time Bai Zhongqi has done such a super-light voyage. The earth is now a few light years away, and in front of him is a blue planet that is smaller than the earth and has a different charm.

Xiang Fei and Ye Qing, representatives of Country C, who were also aboard the Sacred Falcon, also looked at the blue planet and sighed.

Dr. Ye Qing was originally just visiting Ruyi City for study. Xiang Fei heard that the Iridium people were taking him to a habitable planet in the Alpha Centauri system. Xiang Fei immediately went to find Ye Qing, and there were three other people accompanying him.

"Director Xiang, we are the first people on earth to step out of the solar system. This is something worth celebrating." Ye Qing showed a slight smile after being shocked.

Xiang Fei was quite excited when he thought of this, and said: "That planet is a livable planet. The Iridium people said that the population on it is concentrated in a small number of areas, and more than half of the area has not been developed. If we join the Star Alliance, we will To be able to acquire land on this planet, and at least in millions of square kilometres.”

Ye Qing smiled slightly and said, "I'm afraid this is the real purpose of the Iridium people in asking us to participate in this inter-galactic voyage."

Xiang Fei is not a fool, so he naturally understands the profound meaning. He said: "The main obstacles to joining the Union have been cleared. Now they are actually minor issues. It is not impossible to leave them to be solved later."

He naturally has a sense of urgency. People from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the United Empire of Iridium have told him privately that if Country C does not complete the alliance negotiations before Iridium officially colonizes Cuihaixing, then there will be no country C in Cuihaixing. It’s a share. Even as the territory of Iridium, Country C enjoys some preferential treatment from member states, but after all, it is not the same as its own land.

The Star Alliance's solution to the newly incorporated territories has been written into the Star Alliance Charter. Whoever makes the discovery gets it, and the resulting land may be divided if it is a joint discovery or after negotiation. Another way is to use the newly incorporated land as Star Alliance territory, which is directly managed by the Star Alliance Parliament and nominally does not belong to any Star Alliance member state, but each Star Alliance member state can treat it as their own land and carry out Immigration, commerce and investment development.

In the bridge, Bai Zhongqi gave the order, "The Tai'a and Juque stay in the orbit of Cuihai Star, and the Sacred Falcon flies to the Legend Continent to start construction."

In front of everyone's eyes, a holographic light curtain was emerging, displaying the satellite image of the legendary continent of Emerald Sea Star that had just been taken and formed. Legend has it that the continent covers an area of ​​more than 58 million square kilometers, even larger than the Eurasian continent on Earth. This is because the entire geological structure of Cuihai Star is younger than that of the earth. There are four geological plates in total. The northern and southern continents belong to one plate, and it is said that the continent is one plate, plus two oceanic plates.

Legend has it that the terrain of the continent is as complex as the Eurasian continent. It runs through the northern and southern hemispheres and is shaped like an irregular dumbbell, wide in the north and south and narrow in the central land. Although it is narrow, it is not as narrow as an isthmus like the Americas on Earth, but it is still more than a thousand kilometers wide. It is said that the central to western parts of the northern hemisphere of the continent are mountains and plateaus, just like the northern continent. Because the global average temperature is lower than that of the earth, the temperature in the central and western regions is lower, and even the plateau area is frozen all year round. There is only one basin on the west coast. Temperature and humidity conditions are more suitable.

Legend has it that the east coast areas of the northern and southern hemispheres of the continent are endless stretches of great plains. There are more than a dozen large rivers with water volumes comparable to those of the Amazon River and the Yangtze River that originate in the mountains and plateaus in the west and flow into the blue sea in the east. This plain has an average altitude of 10-500 meters and is covered with endless broad-leaved forests. Also because of the low temperature, even in the tropical areas of the legendary mainland, the high temperature in summer does not exceed 30 degrees, and the temperature in winter is between 5-15 degrees. As for the latitude above 50 degrees north and south, it is a temperate zone with suitable temperature on the earth, while in Green Star it is covered by tundra and ice sheets.

The first place Bai Zhongqi chose to build the city was on the east coast of the northern hemisphere of the Legend Continent, at the fifteenth degree north latitude. On Earth, the east coast of the continent at fifteen degrees north latitude would have a tropical monsoon climate, but on Green Starfish, the climate here would be more like the Yangtze River Delta Jiangnan region.

The Divine Falcon is equipped with powerful anti-gravity engines, which allows it to freely enter the atmosphere and even land on the surface. This is also a capability that many older imperial capital ships do not have. Huge space battleships that are often thousands of meters long and weigh tens of millions of tons. Without an anti-gravity engine, it is unknown how much energy it would take to break free from the constraints of planetary gravity.

Bai Zhongqi said to the captain Xu Lanzhou: "We will call this new city Su'ao. It will be built on the plains and beside the river. There is a vast and fertile land around it, which is enough for us to use."

Bai Zhongqi did not choose to build the city on the coast, which would limit the use of surrounding land, and the main transportation in Suao City in the future will be airship transportation instead of sea transportation. Even for water transportation, since the average depth of the big river next to Su'ao can reach more than 11 meters, which is enough to carry large cargo ships with tens of thousands of tons, it is not a problem at all.

"The atomic construction equipment on the Holy Falcon, as well as the engineering drones and unmanned engineering ships we brought this time, can build an agricultural city here within two weeks. I am planning to use the three assault corps' The Motorized Infantry Regiment is placed here. As the Agricultural Reclamation Corps, it can not only carry out agricultural production, but also wear armor and carry out military operations when necessary." Bai Zhongqi's wishful thinking was crackling.

The number of raiding corps composed of androids in his hands is increasing, and they are becoming more and more effective when performing general farming tasks. With just a few programs, these androids can switch between farmers, workers, teachers and warriors. Although the Iridium people cannot expect any creative achievements from bionic humans, in terms of replicability and mechanical production, the advantages of bionic humans are still far superior to ordinary people.

The huge Holy Falcon slowly fell into the atmosphere, and the heat generated by the friction with the atmosphere was blocked by the powerful shield of the Holy Falcon. In fact, due to gravity control, the falling process is not the acceleration that the Holy Falcon should have at this weight level. It is naturally the function of the anti-gravity engine, so the frictional heat is not even as good as the heat generated when the Shenzhou spacecraft enters the atmosphere.

Dozens of engineering drones had already cleared a clearing in the target area before the Sacred Falcon landed. Small aerial robots have even completed the relocation of wild animal nests, causing as few unnecessary animal deaths and injuries as possible. Perhaps for forest developers on Earth, this kind of action is unnecessary and a waste of effort. But for the Iridium people, while possessing this ability, the maintenance of the ecosystem and other ethnic groups is also the basic ethics of being a powerful intelligent creature and a cosmic civilization.

All life is worthy of respect.
