As the exit of the space passage opened, those people flew out from inside, and Yang Yi and others greeted them.
What arrived were the soldiers led by Lin Feng and the ten top warlords commanded by the Dragon God Queen. However, the spaceship they boarded did not come out of the space channel. Yang Yi and the others did not delay either. After receiving Lin Feng and them, they immediately set off to return to the headquarters of the Expeditionary Force.
Although everyone believed that the Emperor would not be silly, but to be on the safe side, Yang Yi still waited for two months, and after making sufficient preparations, did Yang Er contact Lin Feng and others to return them to the Moheng Galaxy. As for that spacecraft, obviously it cannot come back. Don't forget, Yang Er made the Emperor believe that Yang Yi had left the Moheng galaxy in the spacecraft. If the spacecraft came back, it would be equivalent to telling the Emperor Yang Yi that Yang Yi had also returned.
In the past two months, Yang Er cultivated the second batch of Uncle seedlings, expanded the scope of the ecological zone, and transplanted the first batch of mature Uncle plants outside the ecological zone. Although the transformation of the planet's environment has just begun, the value of the unique man has already emerged. In the forest formed by the unique plants, the air that can be directly breathed has been produced, but other conditions are still very bad, and there is no environment in which humans can survive. Because the scope of the ecological zone has expanded dozens of times, after leaving enough space for the construction of military facilities, Yang Yi adopted Yang Er’s proposal and established the first settlement in the ecological zone, and the first settled It is the officers and soldiers of the expeditionary army who lost their combat effectiveness because of their disabilities. There are more than 11,000 people in total, including more than 7,000 men and less than 4,000 women. After that, Yuyang was responsible for setting up a temporary government in the settlements and setting up various non-governmental organizations. In the future, as the environmental transformation is gradually completed, settlements will be established in other places. After all the environmental transformations of the planet are completed, these settlements will be expanded into cities and become the origins of human civilization.
Because these tasks are being carried out gradually, the officers and soldiers of the Expeditionary Army have gradually realized that they will rebuild human civilization here. After most of the expeditionary army officers and soldiers had this understanding and gradually accepted this reality, when Yang Yi officially announced that he would build a new home here and temporarily abandoned his plan to return to the southern Alpha galaxy, he was not in the expeditionary army. Cause too much movement.
On the day when the first settlement was officially established, Yang Yi personally presided over the retirement ceremony of more than 10,000 officers and soldiers.
These officers and soldiers who have lost their combat effectiveness due to injuries and disability will withdraw from the expeditionary force and be transferred to reserve service. Except for regular military training, they will be engaged in civilian labor at other times. At the same time, the Expeditionary Forces Command established the Reserve Servicemen Management Office, which was temporarily in charge of Yuyang, and formed an interim government on this basis. Affected by the living conditions and in order to improve labor efficiency, Yang Yi asked the soldiers to keep the small original energy converters they had originally possessed, but to hand in the sacred artifacts to arm other officers and soldiers. As for the specific matters of settling veterans, Yang Yi handed them to Yuyang. After all, Yuyang had a high prestige in the minds of the expeditionary army officers and soldiers.
It can be said that these 10,000 veterans are the main force in the construction of new homes.
Although they were all retired because of their disability and loss of combat capability, they were all genuine soldiers, and they were originally the backbone of the expeditionary force, not to mention that they all had small power converters. In other words, even if their ability is not enough to kill the enemy on the battlefield, it is definitely more than enough to participate in the labor and construction of the rear. In a sense, they are the best workers. Except for technical work, their efficiency in ordinary labor is hundreds of times that of ordinary workers. There is almost no technical work to build a new home, and even if there is one, it will not be their turn, because there are no technical problems that cannot be solved with Yang Er.
However, this is not the greatest value of veterans.
In Yang Er's words, the social group composed of these soldiers is the real key.
Prior to this, the Human Expeditionary Force was a purely militarized force, or a special social group, without extensiveness and development. To put it simply, the human expeditionary force does not have the ability to regenerate, nor does it have the extensive channels of circulation that a normal society should have. In the Human Expeditionary Army, Yang Yi is the supreme commander in command and no one can replace it, and the rank of officers and soldiers from commander to soldier is the only power structure. More importantly, no matter how powerful the expeditionary army is, it cannot have the endless vitality like a normal society. These 10,000 veterans have fundamentally solved this problem. Although they are not strong enough to rebuild human civilization, as long as they can develop, then in the near future, the blood that continues from them will give birth to a brand new one. human civilization. More than 10,000 veterans are just the beginning, and their descendants will become real civilians, the first human beings born in the Northern Alpha Galaxy, and the first human beings to make the Moheng Galaxy their home.
At this point, the real problem came out.
This is the reproduction of offspring.
Obviously, reproducing offspring through natural methods is very inefficient and requires a lot of time. It takes several generations or even dozens of generations to reach a sufficient scale. Even if you don’t consider the emotional problems of the veterans, or the ability to raise offspring, you just reproduce a group of offspring through natural means, and let these offspring reach adulthood, it will take at least twenty years. Obviously, this is an extremely long period of time.
To this end, Yang Er proposed to use technical means to expand the scale of reproduction of offspring and shorten the time of adulthood for offspring.
Simply put, it is cloning.
Of course, there are no technical difficulties. Yang Yi can contact Yujia, obtain cloning technology from Yujia, and manufacture cloning equipment here. In addition, the spacecraft also has related technology. As for the materials for manufacturing cloning equipment and the raw materials for cloning, it is not even a problem.
Of course, while making this proposal, Yang Er also came up with a specific plan.
According to this plan, it takes about half a year to obtain the manufacturing cloning equipment and the raw materials for cloning, and then it takes half a year to manufacture the cloning equipment and perform genetic matching, that is, to manufacture cloned samples. In this year, ten settlements can be built. If there is no problem with the supply of materials, then it is only the living space that limits the scale of cloning. Even without considering those transport ships from the Southern Alpha galaxy, only ten settlements can settle about one million inhabitants, that is, the first batch of clones can reach one million at most. Because it takes time to learn and master life and production skills, it will take about five years to train these million clones. At the same time, the planet’s environment will be improved on a large scale, making it basically suitable for human habitation. In other words, there is no population size limit since the second batch. Not surprisingly, the population can be increased to 100 million in ten to fifteen years.
However, Yang Yi did not immediately adopt Yang Er's suggestion because there is a problem that no one can deny.
This is, are human clones human
Although according to Yang Er, genetic matching can be used to solve the genetic defects of cloned humans, that is, to allow each cloned human to have a unique combination of genes, but in terms of ethics, most expeditionary army officers and soldiers certainly cannot Accept human cloning. More importantly, some technical problems cannot be solved even by Yang Er. For example, clones are all directly obtained adult physiques, without a growth process of more than ten years, there must be obvious psychological defects, and the physical defects cannot be ignored. In Yang Yi's words, this is not a human cloning civilization, so the future human civilization can never be built on the basis of human cloning.
To put it bluntly, the cloning scheme proposed by Yang Er has a strong emergency color.
Since it is only an emergency plan, it naturally has no value in fact.
Quite simply, what can clones do
Although clones are ideal fighters, especially those who receive unified military training during the cloning stage can train clones into the most sacrificial fighters, but the war with the emperor requires not ordinary fighters, but soldiers. , Or a soldier of the battle emperor level. Obviously, the key to improving the combat effectiveness of the human expeditionary force is the sacred weapon. If there are not enough sacred artifacts, no matter how many clone fighters there are, it is useless.
Serve as a labor force to rebuild human civilization
Obviously, this is a false proposition.
The labor efficiency of those retired soldiers who have small primary energy converters is millions of times that of ordinary workers, and limited by the speed of environmental transformation, the living area of human beings is extremely limited, and the amount of labor required is not very large, so there is no need More labor. Even with the expansion of the living area in the future, especially after the establishment of a sound civilized system, more labor is required for productive labor, it can be solved through technical means instead of blindly increasing the number of labors. Take the manufacturing of sacred artifacts, Yang Yi's efficiency alone is extremely low, but after Yang Er's participation, that is, after using the technical means only Yang Er has, the production efficiency has increased by hundreds of times. Besides, even if labors for simple labor are needed, there are ready-made ones, namely those silicon races under the command of the Dragon God Queen. Although the IQs of silicon people are relatively low, it is certainly not a problem to engage in simple labor.
That's why Yang Yi insists on the principle of natural reproduction.
Of course, in order to promote natural reproduction, that is, to allow those veterans to form families and transform into social workers, Yang Yi asked Yuyang to formulate a series of incentive measures. For example, married veterans can get three times the daily supply of unmarried veterans, can obtain a separate residence, and enjoy the priority of private land in the settlement area, and the descendants of veterans will receive obligations provided by the expeditionary army. Education and free medical care, and veterans who raise their children can receive high-starvation subsidies provided by the expeditionary army. Simply put, it is to use various incentives and safeguards to worry about childbirth, so that veterans can adapt to the new life as soon as possible and become real social people.
However, most of these are plans or plans. After all, two months are too short to do much.
Among other things, those retired military personnel have settled down, and the Provisional Government has just been established. Many people have never thought about things like getting married and having children.
