039. Operation Plan

I just woke up at dawn. I slept early yesterday, so I have enough sleep. I felt dizzy and dizzy after a large update.

Now you can understand what you didn't know. There are several continents on this planet's continent map, but humans only seem to be living here. Only animals and demons have been found on other continents.

This planet, or the world, people called it Ares. The name of the continent is Cerise.

When the map of the continent was displayed in a virtual window, a colorful map painted by country was displayed. There are many parts on a white background. This was an area that did not yet belong to any country or was lacking information. The ratio is 40% for the colored part and 60% for the white background. There were 54 countries in all.

I don't care about such information.

(Iris)

[Good morning. Captain]

(Good morning. I want to confirm a few things. First, the location of this planet. Why is it so out of the way?

[I do not know. There is no data on the appearance position when forcibly warping out like this time]

[Guess what? ]

[The captain knows that the position of the ship during hyperspace navigation is known only stochastically, but since he warped out without going through the usual procedure, the materialization process was performed without the probability converging. I guess it was

What I'm talking about is refreshing.

(Put simply?)

[I think it was unlucky]

It became suddenly easy to understand. Certainly, I haven't had it for a long time. That's why it's enough.

(Next, it is time for the Empire to investigate this space. Why do you know this?)

[I know the algorithm that determines the study space. This algorithm has not changed for the past 500 years. It may change in the future, but it will be the forecast time assuming it does not change.]

(Thousand years later, relief is hopeless)

[This number is only stochastic. It may be faster than that]

(So what's the probability of getting help while I'm alive?)

[The probability is almost zero.]

(I see ...)

The search method for finding the home planet of the Imperial Bagus is to dispatch several fleets to the space under investigation and map them intensively. This is a natural method, because if you miss even one star system, there is no point in investigating it.

Naturally, the space that can be surveyed at one time is the smallest part of the vast universe, and it takes a huge amount of time to investigate.

However, at worst at least a hundred years if not so far off the original route, Iris would have been discovered by a consort.

(So it's the main question. Are the probabilities in the example reliable?)

[Calculated based on the latest survey results and appearance patterns. In that sense, it can be trusted. However, the probability is just a probability. I can't say more.]

That's true. Damn! What should I do!

(What should I do?)

[There is nothing the captain can do]

Yes, there is nothing I can do ...

Some of the information Iris selected for the update was interesting, but with the exception of a series of reports, the rest of the information was fine.

First, the position of this planet is far off from the original sea route, so it is speculated that the Imperial Army will discover Iris, or no, about 1,200 years later.

Of course, this is not a definitive prediction. If, for example, the Imperial Army made a bigger increase than Iris expected, this period would be significantly reduced. The reverse is also true.

And the second report, Iris predicted, was that the probability of Bagus appearing in this system in the system for a hundred and two hundred years before the Imperial Army found the planet was 88 percent.

In other words, the planet is likely to be attacked by Bagus. I do not know when it will be.

(For example, how much can a ship be strengthened in 500 years?)

[A normal fleet of 16 BG-I cruisers will be able to strengthen two fleets simultaneously. However, there is no chance of winning if the fleet includes at least one BG-X type battleship]

That's right. In front of the firepower of the BG-X type battleship, Iris who cannot move cannot win. If the institution section is safe, you can easily break it down.

And there's no end to Bags' attack in two fleets. Bagus will relentlessly attack the star system to which the fleet has headed if his fleet has not returned. Iris without a reactor will eventually be depleted of energy.

(How about constructing equipment that only performs FTL communication?)

[FTL communication facilities can be built by dismantling and turning some sections into resources, but of course they will not work without reactors]

(Can't build a reactor?)

[Impossible. There are no resources to build. Even with resources, building a reactor would require a large dock. It cannot be built with a maintenance bot.]

After all it does not help. Oh, that's what.

Before boarding Iris, he was in the Star-class heavy cruiser Theo II's space soldier, and was rescued by a colonial star attacked by Bagus. Baggs killed 70% of the inhabitants without help. After annihilating Bagus in the system, we had landed on a planet to aid recovery, but it was a real hell. Oh, that tragedy repeats on this planet ...

Silent time continues. The silence continued long enough.

(What if we raise the scientific level of humans on this planet?)

[I'm not in time. Even if the reactor is completed after 600 years of median, it is unlikely that the reactor will reach a scientific level enough to build an on-orbit reactor in 600 years.]

(Why is it so?)

[There are various issues such as education, human resources, and resource development. For example, how do you educate humans on this planet? ]

That's true. I would have to start with elementary science. And it's hard to imagine people willing to learn science in this magical world.

Can you learn even if you force it? how?

(Iris, I've decided to seize this planet! I'll seize it and force the humans on this planet to study science, even forcibly.)

[…… OK]

that?

(Do you not object?)

[There is no reason to object. The captain has the authority to do that.]

(Such an idiot! You're trying to forcibly seize the human planet! Doesn't it violate military regulations?)

[This planet is not part of the Human Galactic Empire. Not a violation of military regulations]

(But ... I don't think the captain just has that power)

[Captain Corinth is not just a captain. This is the commander-in-chief of this space. In the space without Governor, the Supreme Commander is the name of the Adel government in the space. In other words, in this space, the captain ’s will is the will of the empire.]

(Such an idiot!)

Does such a stupid thing accumulate! Who created this mechanism! ......

But it's convenient. I can't give up without doing anything. I'll only scratch my feet!

[By the way, because the planet is not the territory of the Empire, the word invasion or occupation would be more appropriate than the word seizure.]

(Aggression is a bit bad image. Occupation or okay. Iris! We're this ... oh, no, let me do it again.)

I don't have a chance to say such cool lines. I want to say it properly.

(Iris, us, the Imperial Army occupy this planet, Ares, under the name of the Human Galactic Empire, and make it the territory of the Empire!)

[OK]

Iris's glue is bad. I wish I could go out for a while.

[No one has ever incorporated a human planet into an empire by occupation. Achieving this will leave a name in history. Captain]

(Well, the worst criminal in the history of the empire? Okay, Iris, I'm not going to give up easily. I'm sure I'll save the humanity of this star. Absolutely! I don't mean to use it. It doesn't make sense. It is necessary to secure a base for the occupation, which will be the capital of the planet Ares. Please choose)

[If so, the best candidate site would be here]

A continent map was displayed with a red dot in the center of a fairly wide white area. Well, not far from here.

(Why is it here?)

[First, drone spectral analysis shows that mineral resources are orders of magnitude higher than in other areas of the continent.

And there are plenty of wood and stone materials to build a base.

In addition, energy resources such as fossil fuels and demons are almost abundant on this continent. There will be no more candidate sites]

(Is a monster an energy resource? Wait, maybe this is a place called "The Great Demon Sea"?)

[That's right]

(Is the sea of trees filled with demons, and the demons are spilling out into the realm of humanity? Is it okay?)

[No problem]

(Okay, let's do all the maintenance of the base. Do it as you like. In my imagination, this base will probably be an imperial territory for the next twenty years. It will take time)

[If you do it so slowly, you won't be in time, Captain. In at least five years, it will be enough to build a city with 10,000 people.]

(Yes, it's a city in five years.

Is it better to occupy some country? No, if you slaughtered to prevent the slaughter, it will fall. I don't think I can keep my hands clean, but I want to avoid them.

Building a reactor in orbit would be a big undertaking to mobilize humanity on this planet. We must avoid reducing the humanity of this star.

But if Iris pioneered the Great Ocean and built a city, who would want to live there? Wouldn't it be nice if I couldn't live in a strange place because there was a good secret place? No matter what you're invited to, you'll never move out of your current life.

So what about starting as part of a country? Yes, for example, starting as a nobleman, a new settlement has been created! Do you not live because of preferential tax? If you recruit, you can expect migration from other parts of the country. It seems convenient to gather people.

Either way, you should take some time to think.

(Think about how to gather people. Give me some time.)

[OK]

(By the way, what is the possibility of building a reactor in orbit after 500 years at present?

[Yes, about two percent]

(Oh! Although it was said that it was impossible just before, it is a pretty good number.)

[I didn't expect the captain to claim to occupy this star. The probability has increased slightly]

Or maybe it's going a little better.

As it was time for breakfast, I cut off communication with Iris and headed for the dining room. There are already Clelia and Serena in the canteen, drinking tea and talking. I'm glad she got along.

"Good morning. What were you talking about?"

"Good morning, Alan. We had the clelia tell us about this continent."

"What, what?"

"It's about the nobility of this continent. We're glad we didn't know at all."

Oh! I want to hear that too. Ask the Sharons later what they missed.

"I'm interested in it. Please let me know."

"Before that, Alain. I also want to ask."

"what?"

"Aran is probably a royal family?"

"What, suddenly, I'm not a royal family. Where did that idea come from?"

"No, it should be different. I'm sorry for asking strange things."

Clelia feels relieved. I wonder what if?

Breakfast was brought there. Today's breakfast is like a hamburger. It is heaped on a platter. Probably they are making good use of the rest of the hamburger's minced meat yesterday.

The buns baked for burgers have cheese, lettuce-like vegetables, thick patties and slices of tomatoes, and the sauce is an aurora sauce made with ketchup and mayonnaise. Well, this is delicious! It's a bit heavy from the morning, but delicious things are delicious.

"Wow, this is also delicious!"

Sharon and Serena are crazy about eating burgers. Of course, Clelia.

The hamburger on the platter quickly disappeared.

The story of Clelia's nobility seemed to be about the rank of the nobility. I asked what I wanted to know because it was just a noble story.

"Is a commoner going to be noble?"

"Yes, rarely. In the Starweg kingdom, I suppose that about a decade ago, a party of S-ranked adventurers defeated three Wyverns and gave the party leader the title of a captain." And Elna.

"I remember that story, it must have been a reward for saving the village that was attacked by Wyvern."

How! Can adventurers be noble? It ’s just that you ’ve killed a demon.

"Hmm, do you just need to get rid of the demon?"

"I don't think it's more than just defeating. Adventurers who are still nobles are famous and popular with the people."

"Yes, the nation has the implication of giving that adventurer a rank of dignity to show their prestige."

Indeed, it doesn't seem like simply removing monsters is enough. Famous, popular or difficult. It doesn't seem to work.

After breakfast, Clelia seem to train their swords in the courtyard as usual. I used to make magic tools, but today I do.

"Selina, Sharon. Would you like to change into uniform and wait in the room?

They replied that they knew they would be serious. You think it's a continuation of last night's story. In a sense it continues.

I returned to my room and wore my uniform after a long absence.

(Iris, come on)

I sense the meaning of coming, and Iris appears in a uniform size in the room. Of course, it is not a real thing but a phantom that Nanom interferes with the optic nerve.

"Do they know the case?"

"No, I don't."

"Well, I'll explain to you now. Follow me."

Leaves the room and knocks on Sharon's room door.

"here you go"

When I entered the room, I noticed my uniform and stood up in a hurry and took a cautious posture. Iris seems to play my deputy.

"Take a break, relax"

Then, Serena caught some luggage and brought something.

"Sorry, His Excellency, I forgot to give you this."

At first glance, it was the rank of a general. The Brigadier's rank is a mark of a comet. This is cool! Let's change it right away.

"Thank you, Lieutenant Conrad"

Replace the rank of Lieutenant Squadron with the rank of Brigadier General.

I don't feel anything in this room.

(Iris, would you like this room to be a briefing room for a space soldier?)

Immediately, the interior of the room was renewed. The size of the room has been changed and the interior decoration has changed like a high tech. The wall behind me had a big screen and the table was a console. Oh, I miss this atmosphere.

The two are nervous or unusual.

"I'm the only one who's been wearing uniforms because we've set our Imperial Army's policy as I said last night. Last night I received a lot of information from Iris about our environment. Contained one important report. ''

Talk to them about an example report.

It is speculated that the empire will discover this planet about 1,200 years later.

During the 1200 years, there is a 88% chance that Bagus will appear in this system.

"In other words, the human race of this star is at unprecedented danger. The human race is not an imperial subject, but all the human planets discovered so far have been incorporated into the empire. If the planet Ares had been discovered earlier in the empire, it would have definitely been incorporated, and I believe that Ares's humanity could be called a para-imperial subject. So I decided to act to save the human race of Ares, but Iris was wrecked, we lost most of our equipment, and we couldn't do much. We agree that there is no other way to save the human race of this star than to raise the scientific level of the human race of this star, and to build a reactor in orbit with the human race's own hands. I saw how There is no time to convince or educate the human level of this planet, there is no time to convince and educate, and in this emergency I made a decision: we, the Imperial Army, occupied the planet Ares in the name of the Human Galactic Empire Empire territory. "

"Ooh!"

Both are good reactions. Iris wants them to emulate them.

"By making it a territory of the empire, the humans of this star will be imperial subjects and we will have the real duty we pledged upon enlistment."

that? I swore, but did Serena leave out? Watch Glance and Iris.

[They both swore]

Was good.

"Of course, the purpose of the occupation is to improve the scientific level of the human race on this planet. We will first secure a base and establish a system. As soon as the governing system and educational system are in place, we will gradually take over hegemony outside the Imperial territory. It will be a long and tough battle, an unprecedented ultra-long-term operation, probably will not be occupied by our generation, and we will take over the operation to the next generation of imperial elites I want you to lay the foundation to set an example for the elite, how do you fight with me? "

"Of course! I will fight with His Excellency!"

"I also fight with His Excellency! There is no such a challenging operation!" Sharon said.

"Thank you, both of you. Thank you very much. Okay, I've decided on the strategy, but I'm sick of the details, but I'd like to answer any questions if I have any questions. Is it? "

"When is the completion of the reactor expected?"

"I and Iris have set the timing of completion for the first time in the next 500 years. This is not a definitive number, but a tentative goal. The details will solidify and may change as progress progresses. But at this very moment, there is no possibility that Bagus will appear in this system, and we want to move it forward as much as possible. "

"Is there an increase in the Imperial Army?" Sharon said.

"Of course, we're thinking of increasing our staff, but we must be more reliable than anything else. We are invaders to the humanity of this star. "

"For example Claire?" Said Serena.

"The Clerias can certainly be trusted, but they have circumstances and I don't think they want to get involved personally."

Both of us felt relieved for some reason. They both feel the same as me.

"What are the elites of the next generation of the Imperial Army?"

"Once the base is completed, I'm thinking of creating a place like an officer training school. Among them, I want to give the trustworthy people nanom and make it the core of the Imperial Army. Personally, my son, I'm going to recruit the Imperial Army when my daughter is there, they're sorry that their parents can decide their own life, but this operation depends on things that can't say that. I can't, but I'll ask Serena and Sharon to do the same. I and your sons and daughters will surely be the people who will lead the Imperial Army. "

"We and His Excellency's son, daughter ..." said Serena.

For some reason, they turned their faces red and face down. Oh, kid's story was too early for a young girl. I don't have a boyfriend yet. It was a gag.

Are there any other questions? Looking at the glance and Iris, she seemed to grin with grin. He looked surprised and looked serious. that's true. Iris rarely laughs and is a mistake.

"Is that the question? ...... Well, that's it for the serious story. That's right! I forgot to say something important. I'm going to have a term of five years. Please decide. "

"Can you quit?"

"Of course, would you sign a contract when you joined? That's of course valid. Oh, if you want to stop it, don't help if you say half a year ago. Yes, you get the salary, of course. Given special circumstances, let's get a Guinea worth 10 times the Imperial army's grade table, and we'll give you a bonus, of course. "

"Ooh!"

"Well, it's like a dangerous allowance."

"Um, your Excellency. The way you talk is a lot different than before ..."

"Oh, I just wanted to ask you to do it seriously and I tried it seriously. It's something that will affect your future life. Why do you stop me? "

"… Is that so"

"Thank you, both of you."

"I understand! Alan"
