Start with Planetary Governor - Chapter 778

Salihovic’s multiple countermeasures can be used.

The information about Yang Shiwei’s corruption and insider trading is the information they have investigated in the past few years, which is a move in the combination punch.

On this basis, the memorandum signed by Yang Shiwei as the representative of the empire that the young man got was an unexpected surprise, and it will play a role in the subsequent countermeasures.

Gu Hang’s order was clearly given to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Alliance.

This part of the work will be led by Salihovic.

But the execution party is definitely not just the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The machine of the Alliance, which is ready to go, rumbled and started.

From the administrative department, to the economic department, to the military department, to the legal department, to the intelligence department, all actions should be taken.

However, from execution to fermentation, to detonation, and then to the final result feedback, it takes time to settle in the middle. Since the specific executor has been determined, Gu Hang did not personally watch this matter and just waited for the report.

At the moment, the first thing he had to deal with in person was another Alliance Government Work Report Conference.

This was basically held every year, and Gu Hang would of course attend it.

Some years’ conferences were of average importance, while some years’ conferences were very important.

The first one was fifteen years ago when Gu Hang returned from Holy Terra with the signed “Alliance Plan”.

That conference report basically determined the future development direction of the Alliance.

And now, it is also a very important time node.

On the one hand, the successive development plans have been successfully realized, and the war expenses owed by the Central Empire to the Alliance have been completely offset. The most important period of development of the Alliance has ended. It is time to look back at the overall development status of the past fifteen years.

On the other hand, the Alliance has also observed the changes in the entire imperial political arena, and the external political environment of the Alliance is deteriorating. At this time point, it is like walking at a crossroads. Even the Alliance needs a key overall meeting to unify ideas, determine the route, and figure out what to do in the future.

In the first half of this meeting, the government report was still the main focus.

The intelligence about the Alliance that the Empire currently has is indeed ‘correct’.

The Alliance’s annual GDP has indeed reached 50 trillion.

It is precisely because of this data that they have that document with many errors and omissions in the data, proposing an annual tax of 5 trillion to the Alliance.

However, the reason why the word ‘correct’ is put in quotation marks is that the figure of 50 trillion is only one of several figures estimated by the intelligence department of Holy Terra, and it is the highest one.

The mainstream recognized figure is between 30 trillion and 35 trillion.

This is already a very high figure, almost three times that of the universe of the same size.

The Empire still maintains some inertia brought by common sense.

They can’t think of any way to make a huge economy with a population of 12 trillion maintain ultra-high growth for 15 years and increase its GDP fivefold.

That is a challenge to common sense.

In fact, 30 trillion is already a challenge.

They have always believed that the strength of the Alliance lies mainly in their efficient political system, which brings excellent efficiency in tax collection.

It was on this basis that the Central Government of the Empire formulated the number that Yang Shiwei mentioned later that he really wanted to implement, which was 2.5 trillion tax coins.

In the eyes of the Central Government of the Empire, this has already given the Alliance a value of 500 billion, and it has not been levied at the exact 10% tax rate of the Empire. Combined with the Alliance’s excellent tax collection efficiency and institutional advantages, the Alliance should still have a lot of income. This has fully taken into account the Alliance’s strong strength and the respect for Gu Hang, the high lord. Gu Hang and his alliance should be grateful for this.

This is the difference in cognition between the two sides.

Putting aside the Empire, the Alliance’s actual general public budget revenue and state-owned enterprise operating income can actually reach about 10 trillion per year.

As the Central Government of the Empire considered, the Alliance system is very efficient in collecting the surplus value of labor.

And this is not the end.

Trade with the North, the South, and Lingze Star, the various chambers of commerce participating in it can also make money. Among them, the tax revenue has been included in the tax revenue, but the various chambers of commerce under the alliance have also made a lot of money.

Especially on Lingze Star.

All the money earned will be handed over to the alliance after paying taxes. This part alone is about one trillion every year.

Of the total fiscal revenue of 11 trillion, except for the part paid to the imperial tax, the rest of the alliance will not keep any, and will be invested in the construction of the alliance, which is mainly economic construction.

At present, the rapid, crazy, and completely economic-oriented construction cycle is also coming to an end.

It does not mean that economic construction will be ignored. On the contrary, economic construction will still be the government’s main task.

It’s just that at this time point, when the situation is likely to change in the future, the alliance will spend a lot more money on other aspects.

Even the extreme preparations that should be made should be made.

Speaking of extreme situations, the Alliance does have wartime decrees.

In the past fifteen years, the wartime decrees seem to have become a somewhat unfamiliar memory for the new generation of the Alliance. However, in the more than fifty years of the Alliance’s history, the time when the wartime decrees were activated accounted for more than half.

The current Alliance people have always maintained a relatively high standard of living. Of course, the specific living standard depends on the development of each star field. Among them, the Dragon Eagle Star Field is definitely the highest in terms of living standards, and the per capita annual consumption can even reach nearly 7 tax coins. Even if many of them are in public services, the overall level is here, and life is quite comfortable.

If the Alliance activates the wartime decree, various consumer goods begin to be restricted, and various civilian factories begin to transform into military factories or other directions required by the Alliance, the Alliance can squeeze out another 10 trillion fiscal revenue for war.

Of course, this trick is not needed for the time being.

It just adjusts the direction of current fiscal expenditure.

And a very important part of it is military construction.

In the past fifteen years, although the Alliance has been reducing its military forces and cutting military expenditures. However, the construction of the army has not stood still.

The only resources are used on the cutting edge: for the existing equipment, to update and replace, to form more combat-capable model troops and experimental troops.

And the accumulated experience will be very effective. When the alliance needs to expand its military strength, it only needs to spend money and resources, and then all the military progress of the past fifteen years can be quickly realized.

This is true for both the army and the navy.

In terms of the army, there are relatively few changes. It is mainly to build several different levels of divisions, corps, and corps.

They will be divided into four levels, ABCD.

Among them, the D level is the planetary defense force standard. However, the defense force of each planet needs to have a certain proportion of C and B level divisions and armies, depending on the economic situation of the planet, and is jointly formulated by the alliance government and the alliance military.

The C level is a division-level unit built according to the alliance standards during the Iron Armor War. Class C army is composed of all Class C divisions. Generally, it consists of 26 divisions, including 20 large infantry divisions, 5 armored combined brigades, and 1 skeleton division.

The cost of a large infantry division is about 1.35 million tax coins; the cost of an armored combined brigade is 5 million tax coins; the cost of a skeleton division is 10 million tax coins.

No mistakes, please read it in the book bar!

The main unit of the Class C large infantry division is the front-line combat infantry, but it is not equipped with all motorized equipment. Tactical maneuvers basically rely on two legs to run. For strategic maneuvers of hundreds or thousands of kilometers on the planet, other vehicles must be used. Basically, it relies on armored tracked trains belonging to the army or army group.

In addition to the 12 front-line combat infantry regiments, the division is generally equipped with 8 artillery battalions as key firepower; logistics, engineering, and communications also have 8 battalions; in addition, it is also equipped with an air defense regiment and an aviation squadron.

Including the division headquarters, the total number is 44,000.

Such a large infantry division actually has the same combat capability as a standard Star Army division. In fact, it is even more capable than the average Star Army.

The so-called ability to fight is not only about stronger firepower, additional air defense and aviation teams, but also about the quality of the soldiers.

Class C divisions can guarantee more than 60% coverage of T5 soldiers.

Class C armored combined brigades have a much smaller number of people, about 14,000 people. But they have about 1,000 armored vehicles, from infantry fighting vehicles to armored personnel carriers to air defense vehicles to wheeled assault guns to communication command vehicles… everything. The more important combat power comes from 320 Lion tanks and 40 Lion King tanks.

Putting aside the support companies, logistics troops, and engineering troops of each combined battalion and tank battalion, the combined brigade also has an aviation squadron and an air defense battalion.

These five armored combined brigades are the main offensive force of a Class C army.

The other Skeleton Division has 60,000 people, and its equipment is basically equal to the synthesis of a large infantry division and an armored brigade. It can be used for independent combat, and the number of infantry weapons such as explosive machine guns, plasma guns, and hot melt jets has increased significantly. It also has a special brigade, which is mainly responsible for the most difficult and arduous tasks, even airborne and special operations.

These add up to 62 million, plus the army headquarters directly under the group army, several aviation brigades, military strategic firepower and other things, the total cost is up to 75 million.

The C-type group army group is composed of 20 such groups, 20 million people, and more strategic firepower, strategic mobile facilities, engineering teams, and multiple strategic aviation corps.

The alliance’s requirements for division-level units are to be responsible for the goals of a single combat area independently or collaboratively. Generally, the combat width will not be less than 40 kilometers, generally around 70 to 100 kilometers.

This is under normal intensity. When necessary, it is necessary to stack a large number of troops to form more batches of battles, or pile up more troops for frontal battles, and this number will change.

It depends on the tactical requirements.

When fighting against an enemy with heavy firepower, you definitely can’t just pile up randomly, that would be a gift of life, such as fighting against human traitors. But when dealing with an enemy like the Zerg, you have to pile up more densely, especially with dense firepower, otherwise you can’t stop the endless Zerg’s frontal attack. The green-skinned orcs are probably in the middle of this.

The requirement for the army group is to lead the battle in an area divided by a planet; the army group can basically be responsible for the entire combat needs of a planet independently.

Of course, all of this depends on the intensity of the war.

When it comes to the level of apocalyptic battles, let alone divisions, the army group’s consumption rate is calculated on a daily basis. An army group may be destroyed in ten days or half a month, and it is possible that the key battlefield is concentrated in a width of several hundred kilometers.

All of this needs to be analyzed based on specific circumstances.

But if you have to talk about normal conditions and ideal conditions, that’s how they are classified.

Class C army groups can basically match a normal imperial star army corps, and are often much stronger.

As for the B-type division, the large infantry division will have more exoskeleton armor, plasma cannons and melta cannons will be equipped, the number of sentinel mechas will also increase, and the level of the division’s aviation squadron will be higher. For example, the wind falcon will be replaced with more Qilin fighters, and the overall mobility and persistence will be greatly increased.

The number of people is still around 44,000, but the total cost will soar to 4.5 million, which is almost three times that of the C-type division.

The B-type armored division will increase the number of Lion King tanks to 120 on the basis of the C-type, and will also be equipped with 30 Holy Sword tanks-this is a heavy tank that is larger and stronger than the Lion King tank. The overall cost will increase to 15 million.

The B-type army group will require the number of B-type divisions to account for more than 50% on the basis of the C-type army group. The B-type army group also requires the number of B-type army groups to account for more than 50%.

For this type of B-type division, army group, and army group, the combat effectiveness alliance is compared with those well-known Star Army Corps.

It can basically beat normal Astra Militarum troops.

Even many wealthy Space Marines have their own auxiliary troops at this level.

And when it comes to Class A divisions, it is really the best. All infantry members have exoskeletons, and even a large proportion of them have feedback power armor; there are also many Dragon Elephant fighters on the fighter planes, and the combat effectiveness is outstanding.

In addition, in terms of manpower, there are also many T4 and T3 level.

In terms of armored divisions, there are more Holy Sword tanks, and they are also equipped with Titans.

Class A army requires more than 8 Class A divisions, and the rest are all Class B divisions.

The same applies to Class A army groups.

The standard of the Alliance when building Class A land forces is to build the most powerful mortal troops in the empire, surpassing most Astra Militarum troops – including those well-known Astra Militarum corps.
