Guide to Galactic Dominance

For the vast majority of Starfleet citizens, the Starfleet Prime Minister is the political figure they have more contact with than the Head of State, Bai Zhongchu. Although this prime minister was not elected by them, but was directly appointed by the Star Alliance Council (Bai Zhongqi), Du Peng's ability to handle affairs, his toughness in the face of stubborn and clever local national governments, and his always gentle and elegant personal image made him He is also quite popular among people.

Bai Zhongqi rarely appears in public. The last time he gave a formal speech was at an event to commemorate the victims and celebrate victory after the Earth Defense War. But Du Peng often appears in the media news. He often discusses the national economy and people's livelihood of the Star Alliance. From the popularization of the universal supply policy to the transfer of family industries, he is indispensable in various actions of the Star Alliance.

In fact, even Bai Zhongzhen admires a workaholic like Du Peng. The prime minister works almost twenty hours a day and only rests for four hours a day.

In contrast, Bai Zhongqi still controls the direction of Star Alliance's development and expansion, but he gradually disappears from the public eye. After the Iridium people became an ethnic group of the Star Alliance, many people on earth even misunderstood Bai Zhongqi as the spiritual leader of the Iridium people. After all, Bai Zhongqi was not so bored that he wrote in the textbook that His Majesty the Head of State could control even the number of radishes produced by the Star Alliance Ministry of Public Economy with his supreme orders every day.

After Xiao Yu figured out his method of compulsory conscription, he met directly with Du Peng.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, the head of state proposed at the last war preparation meeting that we should build the space army to a scale of eight million people, but now we can only exceed three million, and more than half of the personnel are still dissatisfied. For three consecutive months, we have seen a decline in the number of people signing up for volunteer service. If this trend continues, it will be absolutely detrimental to the subsequent expansion plan of the Space Army." Xiao Yu moved out the big statue of Bai Zhongqi when he came up. The signboard cannot help but be ignored.

Du Peng didn't have much contact with Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu had basically appeared as a playboy in the past. He had a tough status and background, so Du Peng didn't think highly of him. But Xiao Yu took control of the Space Army and managed the situation better than Xu Lanzhou, so now Du Peng has to look up to him.

"It cannot be said that such a situation on the earth is an accident. Most people in developed countries in the old era would choose to join the army as their last resort. Moreover, it is also a function of brainwashing patriotic education. Just like in the lighthouse country, where no one has If you really invade a country, joining the army means going abroad to fight. Now the Star Alliance has given the people too many life choices. Young people also want to experience all kinds of things. All walks of life are also accumulating talents, so competition is also It’s quite intense. Commander Xiao, I think the issue of conscription on Earth still needs a few years of settling down before it can finally stabilize. Now, I suggest you focus more on our other administrative stars.”

Du Peng's suggestion sounds very pertinent. The Star Alliance now has a total of five administrative stars with complete structures. Among them, the populations of Lieque Star and Taoran Star are negligible, and the number of millions is too small. The populations of Cuihai Star and Lingge Planet are still considerable. Cuihai Star now has a population of more than 300 million including immigrants from Earth, and Lingge Planet also has a population of 2 billion.

Xiao Yu responded: "The recruitment work on Cuihaixing and Lingge Planet was relatively smooth. Thanks to His Majesty's foresight, a training center was set up on Lingge Planet. The level of development there is slightly higher than that on Earth, and the country is also higher than that on Earth. There are far fewer people on Earth, and it is easier to organize and control. After sufficient training and study, it is not difficult for Linge Stars to form an army. In comparison, the problems on Earth are the ones that may become a phenomenon. I believe that the current social problems on Earth are This is not only reflected in our cosmic army’s inability to recruit soldiers. More and more scholars and observers are beginning to worry about the large number of unemployed people. Maybe they will not become a destroyer of social stability, but it is obviously a very inefficient phenomenon. "

Du Peng sighed softly at this time and said: "Copying our previous experience on Iridium will not work on Earth. After thousands of years of the United Empire system, Iridium people have become very accustomed to contributing to the United Empire and the Head of State. , labor is an honorable obligation. On earth, perhaps country C, a nominally socialist country, still has some cultural legacy, and most other countries do not have this concept. Now it is not only the former developed countries, but also many former developing countries. There are signs of non-employment. After the implementation of the citizen supply policy, citizens of some countries became idle and had nothing to do, which is sad."

As he said this, his expression was regretful, but there was still a bit of contempt for these people in his eyes.

Xiao Yu was keenly aware of the mood of Mr. Prime Minister. This Mr. Prime Minister usually seemed friendly to people, but he still had some Iridium supremacism in his heart. After the time travel, the ethnic identity of the Iridium people almost ceased to exist. Shi Ye has been living in various parts of the Star Alliance, and Iridium seems to have become yesterday's fairy tale. Now even Bai Zhongqi only talks about Star Alliance, and rarely hears the word Iridium.

Du Peng misses everything about Iridium intensely, even though he now holds amazing power, something he once never dared to think about.

"Our implementation of compulsory conscription is also a good way to solve non-employment. The Space Force is a melting pot that can give many citizens correct values. We have established rules to exclude those who have not held any full-time or part-time jobs for three consecutive months. Citizens will have a certain chance of being selected to become soldiers of the space army."

Du Peng naturally knows the risks and benefits of doing so. Forced things are always likely to cause controversy. But he looked at the people of various countries in the Star Alliance who were living a superior life, but he didn't even have the desire to activate the deep sleep system to study. Even if he sat at home watching soap operas all day, or skateboarding or going to the casino, it was a pure waste of life.

Star Alliance's community corrections are not effective in curing such large-scale non-employment and laziness. If the compulsory conscription law can have some effect on this, it is not impossible.

Du Peng had more discussions with Xiao Yu, and the two of them plus the staff team immediately sorted out more details and implementation methods. After Du Peng thought it was relatively mature, he handed it over to the head of state Bai Zhongchu. As for the Star Alliance Council, the nominal power body, Du Peng was not in a hurry to publicize it.

More than half of the Star Alliance Council are bionic people installed by Bai Zhongqi, and it has no real effect on these people. The final decision of yes or no still depends on His Majesty the Head of State.
