Chapter 466: Forming a Top-class Fleet

Everyone was stunned.

No one understood why Xia Fei said that his days were numbered.

After all, he had just completed a long voyage, infiltrating the insectoid territory and then killing his way back to the Alliance.

Could he be leaving soon again

It had seemingly become a habit of Xia Fei to disappear after a period of time, and no matter where he went, he would always find himself embroiled in some sort of trouble.

They were all curious, but none of them asked any questions toward that end, though they inevitably wondered to themselves.

A pen in Sarahs hand snapped.

She had yet to learn how to hide her feelings, so whenever something happened that she was dissatisfied with, her wildness would surface.

Deliberately coughing twice, Xia Fei evaded Sarahs gaze and told Charlie, “Adding the cargo ships Quantum Holdings originally owns, we should at least have a total of 1065 ships.

This is a lot, and Quantum Holdings will have to insert a skeleton crew to our transport fleet.

I dont wish for the new fleet to be completely in the hands of humans who arent from Earth.”

Charlie agreed as well.

“Quantum Holdings has been nurturing a bunch of middle management people.

Ill mobilize some of those loyal to the company professionals to join them.

Well still need your input on who the fleet commander should be; the formation of the escort and passenger fleets transporting the civilians will also require your input and arrangement.”

Xia Fei massaged his temples with his fingers and heavily answered, “If three out of the six billion Earthlings are willing to migrate to Terminus Star Region, that will require three thousand 10,000 pax large passenger spaceships, and thats too many.

Contact the largest interstellar transport company and see if theyre willing to help us make this trip.”

Charlie nodded.

“Understood.

During the war, due to the undesirable situation, plenty of Earth inhabitants were scattered among the combined fleet of industrial ships, freighters, and the few passenger spaceships we have.

While having people ride cargo ships will save on space and cost of transport, the long journey will surely cause lethargy.

Besides, to travel all the way out to a completely foreign star region, fear is something ever present in the human heart, and riding on an actual passenger spaceship will soothe them somewhat.”

Xia Fei then ordered, “Sarah, I designate you as Quantum Holdings new transport fleet commander.

This is a really tough job, and its your duty to manage the more than a thousand cargo ships, which will constantly shuttling back and forth between the Alliance and Terminus, as well as provide that star region with the materials they require.

Youll be very busy.”

Sarah stood up and nodded.

“Im more than willing to take on this task.

I have no clue about construction, but Ill do everything in my power to lead the ships transporting all the materials our company needs as safely and quickly as possible.”

“Brother Wu Long and Andre.

You two will have some work ahead of you; head back to Earth as soon as possible and organize the reconstruction efforts, including Quantum Holdings production, back there.

At present, our businesss production mainly depends on the large barges which are manufactured as they travel the universe.

Now that the war is over, Ill need Earth to return to how it was in the shortest time.

At the same time, transfer our production from space back onto land.”

Andre laughed.

“Im already used to living on Earth, and I really cant bear to leave, so going back suits me just fine.

With Wu Long by my side, we shouldnt run into any trouble getting the company back on track.”

Wu Long frowned.

“Im afraid that I cant be too much help to you.

The Earth Federation has quite a heavy task ahead of them with reconstruction as well.”

Now that the honest and loyal Wu Long had begun to value his position as the Earth Federations President, his responsibilities increased by the day.

As for his idea of venturing out into space, it was never mentioned again.

He was completely devoted to treating the Federation as his family.

Xia Fei nodded in satisfaction before turning to Porter.

“Uncle, Ill have to rely on you to help with the initial development and construction of Terminus, so Ill need you to head out there and be completely in charge of laying down the infrastructure construction and the management of the immigrants.”

Porter replied, “Id volunteer to go even if you didnt ask.

Its been a long time since Windchime left the Black Abyss, and shes long wanted to return to see how everything is.

I plan to accompany her on this trip, so as to fulfill her wishes.”

As for dealing with staying in the Alliance, the responsibility of the overall coordination fell onto Charlies shoulders.

Everyone had been assigned their roles and tasks, so they all left to get on with their business.

Xia Feis goal here was not exactly too complex to understand.

He basically wanted to work on both Earth and the Terminus Star Region at the same time, beginning construction separately.

The greatest difficulty of this task came in the form of how he would shuttle the large batches of needed materials across No Mans Land to Terminus, and labor was hardly the crucial factor.

There were many impoverished individuals in Terminus, so if they were to be given a job that guaranteed their daily necessities, they would surely be able to round up a huge construction team in a short time.

The overall plan Xia Fei had adopted this time around utilized the point-to-surface approach.

First, he would finish establishing a presence on Planet Friedel; next, he would establish it as a hub and slowly extend basic infrastructure and businesses all over the star region.

Turning off the screen, Xia Fei lit a cigarette and took a few deep drags from it.

“This isnt a simple plan.

Charlie and the others will have plenty of work to do,” Phantom said.

Xia Fei nodded.

“Indeed, but I cant put this on hold anymore.

No matter what happens, Earthlings must be able to be self-sufficient and effectively defend themselves in thirty months time.

This way, Ill be able to join Yuhua and Yujiang with a peace of mind and devote myself to the study of the power of Law.”

Next was the lynchpin of this entire immigration plan, and that was the formation of a security fleet.

Without a powerful military might as support, even the greatest and most ambitious plans could not be implemented.

Quantum Holdings and Earth both needed to have sufficient self-preservation capabilities, or else Earth would still be deemed insignificant and viewed as a pitiful existence in the universe, where the weak were meat and only the strong ate.

A beautiful and surprising guest appeared on the phone.

Nicole Sawyer, the chairwoman of Gaia Industries, was the one whom Xia Fei had dealt the most with out of the four major warship companies.

She was the first Xia Fei thought of when he decided that he would form a top-class fleet.

“Xia Fei!” Nicole was both surprised and shocked as she called his name.

“Im glad that you havent forgotten about me.”

Xia Fei teased.

“Theres only one pretty female boss out of the four warship companies; how could I possibly forget about you There were plenty of people yesterday, so Im very sorry that I didnt manage to find the time to exchange a few words with you.”

Nicole laughed bitterly and shook her head.

“Its fine.Youre the Alliance Hero, after all.

I take it that you have some business to discuss since youve reached out to me”

Xia Fei nodded with a smile.

“That is indeed so.

The Alliance has assigned me the Terminus Star Region to govern, which is why I need to form my own fleet to keep the peace and security of that region.”

“Speak then.

What class of ships do you need How many” Nicole was visibly disappointed, but she tried her best to appear spirited in this conversation.

“Ive already forwarded to you the models and number of ships I need.

We can chat after you take a look at them.”

Work was work, and emotions were emotions.

Chairwoman Nicole was still more than capable of differentiating between the two, which was why she conscientiously inspected the order Xia Fei had sent to her as well as the general details.

She was surprised.

“150 Dominix-class battleships, 300 Vexor-class cruisers, and 600 Tristan-class frigates Xia Fei, are you trying to build yourself an enhanced combined fleet Including that Thanatos-class carrier you have with you, the size and firepower this fleet possesses will definitely be considered as an ace in all of the Panhuman Alliance.”

Normally, a complete fleet would consist of only about 100 battleships, 200 cruisers, as well as 400 frigates.

Xia Feis order this time around very clearly had a higher composition than the usual fleet and would be considered as an enhanced large-scale fleet.

Xia Fei extended three fingers and said, “Not a fleet.

Three.”

“Aside from these warships from Gaia Industries, Im also buying Amarr companys Abaddon-class battleships, Caldari companys Drake-class battlecruisers, Blackbird electronic cruisers, and Condor-class frigates, as well as Mittals Stabber-class cruisers and Rifter-class frigates.

“Fifty Dominix-class multi-purpose battleship, fifty Abaddon-class assault-focused battleships, 200 cruisers of various makes, and a mix of 400 frigates to form three huge fleets on such a scale; the first as peacekeepers of Terminus, the second for patrolling the surrounding borders, and the third and last dedicated to escorting the transport fleet traveling to and from the Alliance.”

Nicole was both completely shocked and filled with admiration when she heard Xia Feis fleet conception.

She nodded her head repeatedly, “That concept youve come up with will definitely be ideal, with you including the best products offered by all four major ship manufacturing companies.

Presently, all four companies, including the two major warrior organizations Adjudicator Union as well as the Monastic Order, have their strength greatly weakened as a result of their forces being requisitioned by the Alliance military for the war.

If you successfully form these three fleets of yours, youll become the fourth strongest military presence if you include the Alliance Military and the two major warrior organizations—one that is solely focused on escorting transport fleets coming and going from the Alliance.”

Nicole was right on the money; top-tier companies like the Starlink Corporation had been reduced to just a single fleet after the war, so Xia Feis three fleets would become a force to be reckoned with in the Alliance.

Changing the topic, Nicole chuckled.

“You selected the best ships from the four major companies in one go, but dont forget that theyre also the most expensive ships.

Just the Amarrian Abaddon-class, known to be the best artillery battleship in the entire Alliance, costs almost fifty-five billion star coins before the war.

Even though the prices of materials drastically fell after the war, causing the prices of warships to decrease as well, it will still at least cost you thirty billion star coins each.

Just this type of warship which will be your main firepower costs 4.5 trillion star coins, or 4.5 duns, already, and thats just the price for the bare ship.

Youll need at least seven duns if you want them fully kitted out.

Xia Fei helplessly shrugged.

“Cant do anything about that.

Fleets have always been the most costly, but thats also a one-time investment for me.

After forming three top-class fleets, I believe that they wont technologically fall behind others in the next hundred years or so.”

Nicole hesitated slightly after hearing what Xia Fei said.

“Actually, if you dont care about the price, I have a better proposal that I want to pitch to you.”

Xia Fei was curious.

“What proposal do you have Could the four major companies have contrabands”

Nicole nodded seriously.

“Youre absolutely correct.

The four major companies werent idling by while the war raged on, and weve made a breakthrough with the research and development of the T2 warships!”

Xia Fei was stunned.

“T2 warships You mean the Deimos heavy-assault cruisers I once piloted A new generation of practically omnipotent heavy-assault cruisers!”

The heavy assault cruisers were of course worth Xia Fei getting shocked over.

It was only the size of a cruiser, but it was capable of unleashing a damage output equivalent to that from a battleship, and it was even more agile than the usual cruiser!

Take the Gaian ships they produced as an example; the Dominix was called a level one battlecruiser, the Megathron a level two, and the Hyperion a level three.

The higher the level, the greater the combat strength, and of course the higher the price.

However, the heavy-assault cruiser was no longer an issue of level, but tier! It was a second generation T2 warship! It was a completely new product which was a whole generation ahead of the usual cruisers!

Nicole was completely calm as she sent a top secret document to Xia Fei.

Xia Fei carefully read through the details within and chuckled to himself.

“No wonder humans say that war is the foremost propellant for technological advancement.

To think this war would actually expedite the Alliances research and development into new models of warships.

The four major companies second generation of warships has quietly descended upon us.”
