The Plane War Begins from Wandering Earth

Chapter 308 307. 'Our bottom line is that there is no bottom line'

After the Human United Government led by the Thraide Galaxy won the civil war.

As a member galaxy of the [Human United Government], it was also a member of the [Anti-Armament Ban United Front Alliance].

The local colonial galaxy forces that chose to side with the United Government have finally waited for the time to reap the rewards.

Even the United Government officials had to admit that the military forces of these local colonial galaxy forces were insignificant.

There are even many member galaxies that only have a barely decent security force thanks to the weapons and equipment produced by Slade Industries and the assistance of the biochemical clone army.

However, these local colonial galaxy forces, whose military strength was not outstanding, also played a role in strengthening the momentum of the Thraide Galaxy, attracting the attention of the Earth Federal Government, and buying time for the Thraide Galaxy to develop quietly during the civil war.

The situation where those who are in the right will have many supporters while those who are in the wrong will have few was vividly demonstrated in this large-scale civil war.

If the Human United Government did not have nearly three hundred local colonial galaxy forces joining it, the celebrities and dignitaries in the core area of ​​the Federation would never have surrendered so decisively and on a large scale.

It is not impossible for the United Government to conquer the entire Earth Federation territory on its own.

But the difficulty will definitely be much greater than it is now, and the united Earth Federation government will definitely inflict greater casualties on the United Government forces.

Therefore, they face these local colonial galaxy forces that have "invested and taken sides" in advance to support them.

The coalition government also gave corresponding returns.

All local colonial galaxy forces that sided with the Earth Federation Government in the civil war were liquidated by the United Government Forces after the war.

The ruling classes within these hostile colonial galaxy forces were all subjected to the most resolute physical elimination by the United Government Forces.

Immediately afterwards, the sphere of influence of these hostile colonial galaxies were all allocated to the local colonial galaxies that sided with the [United Human Government].

The star systems that served the Earth Federation Government during the Civil War were all supporters of Marshal Meru, who was controlled by various monopoly forces.

Controls the richest galaxy outside the core area of ​​the Federation.

In terms of various resources, number of habitable planets, energy, military and other technological levels, it completely crushes the member galaxies of the [Human United Government].

Now that it has been allocated to the members of the [Human United Government], the forces in various colonial galaxies are extremely excited.

Sure enough, risks and returns are often proportional.

After the Thraide Galaxy developed, it did not forget its younger brothers who followed it.

However, before these colonial galaxy forces could be happy for long, the United Government issued another statement.

The united government will change the previous "free-range model" of the central government towards local colonial galaxies.

We must establish a "responsible big government."

The forces of each colonial galaxy will be directly responsible to the United Government. After obtaining the recognition of the United Government, the ruling forces within the colonial galaxies will serve as the administrative governors of each galaxy, responsible for responding to the orders of the United Government and governing the colonial people within the galaxy.

The administrative governors of each colonial galaxy are generally hereditary.

The change of the Executive Governor must be approved by the coalition government.

The successors to the administrative governors of each galaxy must be sent to the core area to receive at least six years of special training and education.

For those colonial galaxies where the ruling power is not the only one, a rotating system of administrative governors is adopted.

Similarly, these executive governors must also be approved by the coalition government before taking office.

When the forces in the colonial galaxies heard about these changes, they felt as if the sky had fallen.

Before this, during the era of the Earth Federation Government, the central government frequently exploited these local colonial galaxies.

However, the power within the colonized galaxies was completely abandoned.

The main idea is that as long as you pay taxes (protection fees) on time and in full, the federal government will legally recognize your rule over the colonized galaxy.

Even if you are a guy who has committed many evil deeds and is hated by both God and man, you can carry out planetary-level genocide in the colonized galaxy at will.

The central federal government will also turn a blind eye.

But now, a new coalition government has taken power back.

The people in each colonial galaxy are first and foremost the people under the rule of the United Government, and only then are the residents of the planets of the various colonial galaxy forces.

Although the coalition government is quite generous in other areas, it has made huge investments in various medical and education areas.

Popularization and sharing of civilian technologies such as energy, biology, etc.

It is much higher than the previous federal government.

But this also means that the various colonial galaxy forces can no longer continue to be their own "local emperors".

The United Government officially began to intervene in the management of local colonial galaxy forces.

Their rights were weakened and they were subject to supervision, which made the ruling powers of the colonial galaxies quite dissatisfied.

They have jointly proposed to the coalition government many times, asking the central government to reduce its interference in local galaxies.

But the coalition government did not give in.

Allowing these private forces to continue to serve as governors of the various colonial galaxies is already the greatest mercy the United Government can show.

During the earlier plane wars, after dealing with the Earth Federation Government, the United Government's butcher knife was destined to target the ruling forces of these colonial galaxies.

Because in essence, they are no different from the federal monopoly forces, and they are all obstacles to the coalition government's implementation of grassroots rule.

Only after targeted education that has lasted for several generations will there be hope of completely transforming the ruling forces of these local colonial galaxies into administrative governors who identify with the values ​​of the United Government.

The ruling forces of the various colonial galaxies were dissatisfied, but after much thought, no matter how confident they were, they did not dare to openly resist the United Government.

After all, the civil war that just ended has fully demonstrated the military strength of the coalition government.

The Slade Galaxy almost single-handedly and without any fuss head-on defeated the "Twelve Energy Galaxies".

A considerable portion of the military security resources of local colonial galaxy forces come from the armaments provided by Slade Industries.

What's more, the people who are most supportive of the rule of the united government right now are definitely the vast indigenous groups in the colonial galaxies.

The coalition government made them realize what respect is.

Not to mention the almost transparent Earth Federation government in the past, the newly-appointed coalition government is even better to them than the ruling forces of the various colonial galaxies.

If the colonial galaxy forces now dare to openly resist the rule of the United Government.

I'm afraid that there is no need for the United Government forces to take action. The resistance of the indigenous people in the colonial galaxies is enough to overthrow their rule.

So no matter how dissatisfied they are, they can only protest verbally in private.

If we really want to take the lead and form an organization similar to the [Anti-Armament Ban United Front Alliance] to protest publicly, no one would have the courage to do so.

The United Government did not overly weaken the armed forces of the various colonial galaxies.

In other words, they didn't care about the armed forces developed by these local colonies. They even publicly stated that they would allow and encourage the governors of the colonies to build local military forces that could deal with the invasion of interstellar pirate groups and maintain the security of the planets.

If the capacity is really limited, you can also apply for assistance from the coalition government, and the coalition government will arrange corresponding indigenous forces to assist in maintaining public security and stability.

Once the colonial galaxy forces face security threats above the level of public security and stability maintenance from interstellar pirate groups.

The United Government promised each colonized galaxy that it would send support forces to provide rescue services within 3-7 Earth days at the latest.

[The United Government will be responsible for the safety of every colonized galaxy and every resident in the colonized galaxy.]

[When any member of the coalition government suffers a serious threat to their life and property, the coalition government army will always be their strongest backing.]

[The safety of the 443 member star systems of the United Government and the 1386 billion citizens of the United Government is the unshirkable and unavoidable responsibility of the United Government! ]

The series of announcements that flooded the screens made the indigenous peoples of the colonized galaxies excited.

They all expressed their feelings that this is a good government that is responsible to the people.

Only the administrative governors of the various colonial galaxies secretly groaned in their hearts.

If this trend continues, who will still recognize these administrative governors in one or two generations?

Even if it is possible to inherit the throne, so what? Aren’t they still just “hereditary workers” under the coalition government?
Everyone was waiting secretly, thinking that the coalition government would "test their bottom line" again and again.

There will always be people who can't help but stand up and resist.

However, these administrative governors waited for a long time, only to find that they had no bottom line at all.

I never see anyone brave enough to stand up and openly resist.

So they could only secretly curse these executive governors as spineless cowards while honestly performing their duties as executive governors.

The United Government did not simply suppress these local colonial galaxy forces.

Some indigenous people who performed outstandingly in the plane wars were also rewarded and supported by the United Government.

The most typical ones are Sam Collins of the Thred system, Alan Hiles of the Montana system, and Harry Kane of the core area.

As the first puppet used by the United Government to conceal his identity, Sam Collins is definitely a model of the "guide party" in the Starship Troopers dimension.

Especially after he dealt with all the people in the Collins family who posed a threat to him in a lightning-fast manner.

Sam was completely impressed by the coalition government's strong execution ability.

He fulfilled all the coalition government's demands 100% perfectly, leaving the coalition government no chance to find fault.

With his cooperation, until the Human United Government completely replaced the Earth Federal Government, many high-ranking personnel in the colonial galaxies began to doubt the origins of the United Government. However, there were still a large number of indigenous people who did not know the truth and believed that the Collins family, which ruled the Thraide galaxy, led the civil war that overthrew the Earth Federal Government.

Alan Hiles of Montana Galaxy also performed quite well.

He joined the coalition government camp halfway through and was somewhat reluctant to do so.

But he still obediently took the lead in raising the banner of resistance against the Earth Federation Government.

It successfully attracted the attention of the Earth Federal Government, and at the cost of sacrificing the entire Montana galaxy as a battlefield, it bought enough time for the United Government.

The war in the Montana galaxy was as fierce as the battle in the "Twelve Energy Galaxies".

The blood of Allen Hiles and the Montana Resistance under his leadership was spilled on every inch of the Montana Fortification Cluster.

As for the core area of ​​the Federation, Harry Kane of the Kane Monopoly Pharmaceutical Tycoon.

His surrender successfully avoided the sacrifice of the Gust Team, an important peripheral intelligence organization of the United Government.

The actions of the Gust team in the core area of ​​the Federation were enough for them to receive a "War Hero" medal of honor from the United Government after the plane war ended.

So in the same way, Harry Kane, who indirectly saved these war heroes, also gained greater credit.

In addition, Harry Kane also promoted the surrender of many potential resistance forces including the Earth's elite and the garrison.

The United Government took over the entire mother planet Earth in its entirety at a very low cost.

The contributions of these three people are the most outstanding among the indigenous people of the Starship Troopers plane.

Naturally, the coalition government will not treat these meritorious officials unfairly.

Sam Collins has been appointed Speaker of the National Assembly of the United Human Government.

Although the real power is held by the coalition government, Sam Collins, the Speaker of the National Assembly, still has a higher say in some matters concerning the Starship Troopers dimension.

Kane Pharmaceuticals, owned by Harry Kane, is one of the few monopoly forces that has not been suppressed by the coalition government.

The coalition government even shared some not-so-cutting-edge biotechnology with Kane Pharmaceuticals.

The construction of some medical infrastructure industries in the colonized galaxies was also outsourced to Kane Pharmaceuticals.

The coalition government intends to support Kane Pharmaceuticals to become a landmark comprehensive pharmaceutical group in this dimension.

Thanks to this, Harry Kane has gradually become the top business tycoon in the Starship Troopers dimension.

As for Alan Hales, the Montana galaxy where he was located during the Civil War was almost reduced to ruins due to the retaliatory attack by the federal government forces.

In order to recognize his and the Montana galaxy's contributions, the United Government allowed Alan Hiles and his own galaxy's people to move into the core area of ​​the Starship Troopers plane with the strongest overall strength to survive.

The diehard members of the federal government in the core area had long been exiled to remote galaxies by the coalition government.

The vacated land, resources, including various supporting industries and technologies, were all distributed to the indigenous people of the Montana galaxy who had lost everything due to the civil war.

Relying solely on the heavy nuclear fusion technology with almost unlimited energy, the United Government is able to control all indigenous forces and would not even consider the "little bit" in the core area.

But the coalition government’s generosity had an effect similar to that of “spending a fortune on horse bones”.

The Montana Galaxy is a practical example that proves that the United Government will never mistreat those who shed blood and sacrificed for it.

After the Starship Troopers' original inhabitants gradually reshuffled their political and business circles, they soon came to the military.

The federal government troops who surrendered and became prisoners during the civil war, in addition to the dismissed chaebols and third-rate conscripted troops from local galaxies.

There is also a former official professional army of 10 to 20 million people.

On-the-spot layoffs would become a factor of social instability, so the United Government reorganized them into a new force specifically designed to deal with interstellar pirate groups and various low-intensity public security and stability maintenance incidents.

The supreme commander of the starship force who refused to follow the orders of Marshal Meru and surrendered to the United Government Army will serve as the nominal commander and assist the United Government Army in management.

A large number of former members of the federal government's official professional forces were incorporated into it.

Johnny Rico is a mid-level federal officer who once fought with the Redemption Army.

With the guarantee of Siegel, the head of the Redemption Army, or the Iron Knights Interstellar Corps, he became one of the few senior Aboriginal officers in the new army.
