Chapter 743, Unprecedented Legitimacy

Of course, the Alliance's participation in the war in Solaria is not free.

The Executive Yuan has to pay, the Astra Militarum Headquarters has to pay, and the Military Affairs Department has to pay.

The Alliance Army already has an Astra Militarum Legion in its army. This organization can be used at this time.

Since it is going to fight in the form of the Astra Militarum, then all the benefits that the Astra Militarum should have must be provided.

The loss and replenishment of various equipment, and the allocation of the entire legion... are all required.

Moreover, the price of the Alliance must be even higher.

On the one hand, the Empire has to pay for the war expenses, so the number of armored vehicles, artillery, reconnaissance system command vehicles, and even the individual soldiers carry more than just a gun and a set of protection. There are also a large number of individual firepower reinforcements. The squad is equipped with a large number of individual missiles, rockets, and heavy bomb machine guns for positional warfare...

More than ordinary troops.

These equipment do not require the Empire to pay, but the consumption of these equipment is inevitable. Fuel, shells, various consumer goods... the Alliance Army will use more than ordinary troops.

This is the expensive part of the military expenditure.

The other part is the manpower cost.

The treatment of the soldiers of the Alliance Army, from daily allowances to combat allowances, to pensions, is higher than that of ordinary Star Army soldiers. This is also a considerable amount of money.

In addition, there is a legion's departure fee paid to the Alliance.

For ordinary Star Army corps, this money is given to the corps. For the Alliance Army, of course, it has to be given to the Alliance.

These three sums of money, added together, are roughly the cost of recruiting the Alliance Army to participate in the war.

It is much more expensive than recruiting ordinary Star Army corps, and it is not much less than recruiting those famous Star Army corps.

However, Luo Fei still does not feel that he is losing money.

Giving money is not a problem, anyway, it is not his only one to give. Solaria has a sufficient budget, and all parties are not afraid of spending money, but they are afraid that the money will not be effective.

Instead of recruiting a large number of low-level troops and spending money on paying pensions to low-level troops and arming cannon fodder, it is better to spend money on inviting real elite troops to quell the rebellion. By settling a planet or a star region, there will be a place to stop the bleeding and start reconstruction, and in turn collect taxes to transfuse blood for the empire.

The difference between the two is huge.

Luo Fei is not afraid of spending money, but there are not so many elite troops in the empire that can be recruited simply by spending money to roll in the muddy land of Solaria.

It is a good thing to recruit one more.

Anyway, after he could no longer oppose or stop Gu Hang, he could change his mentality and try his best to make Gu Hang bigger and turn it into a good thing for himself.

At present, this has already made a good start.

...

After dealing with Luo Fei, the last obstacle was removed.

But the efficiency of the empire is still low.

The documents of the "Alliance Plan" need to be reviewed again, and they are reviewed by multiple departments;

After the review is completed, the documents must be formally brought to the Supreme Council for discussion again;

After the discussion, the Prime Minister must use the seal and Gu Hang must sign. According to Prime Minister Qi Bodu, they will have to hold another ceremony, which will be broadcast live to the public, and at least ten high lords will attend the ceremony.

It is estimated that it will take at least one and a half months or two months to complete this whole process.

Gu Hang is indeed a little anxious.

On the one hand, he is afraid of more dreams. The political situation of Emperor Shengtai is always so treacherous and changeable. Who knows if there will be any accidents in this one and a half months or two months?

But he can't help it. He can only wait patiently and comfort himself that the wait is worth it.

The more standardized the process is, the stronger the document of the "Alliance Plan" will be.

From the review of multiple departments to the discussion of the Supreme Council to the live broadcast of the ceremony, there are more than ten high lords participating.

In this case, the legitimacy of the alliance's rule over the East and its future expansion in the Spider Web Universe will become unprecedentedly high.

He can even take this document and go out to tell any surrounding forces that I have the full support of the Central Empire and I am the orthodoxy of the Empire!

Then wait.

Gu Hang did not waste time while waiting.

It is not easy to come to Holy Terra. It takes nearly two years to go from East Frontier to the Central Empire. Anyway, everyone is here now, so Gu Hang will try his best to meet with people from all walks of life.

Talk about cooperation with those who can, and build relationships with those who can. If it doesn't work, it is also necessary to make a familiar face.

Gu Hang has long realized that connections are still very important when doing things in the Empire.

Not only is he taking action, his wife Ye Lixia, as the first lady of the alliance, also accompanies Gu Hang to attend various activities or travel alone.

A month passed in this way in the midst of wine and feasting.

In this process, there are two things that need to be mentioned briefly.

As promised, Gu Hang went to meet Yan Xinzhen, the Marshal of the Imperial Guards, the leader of the Wanfu Group, and a man of great importance in the entire imperial political situation.

Gu Hang was still quite nervous to meet him.

The latest chapter of this novel was first published on 6 x-on:9 Book # Bar. Please go to 69 Book Bar to read it!

At that time, when he was at the exchange field of the Psychic Society and fully released his psychic energy and demonstrated his strength, there was one negative impact that he was most worried about, that is, he was afraid that the Imperial Guards would cause trouble.

Fortunately, the Imperial Guards were dealt with on the spot, but they were invited by Yan Xinzhen.

He was really afraid that if he went to the Hongmen Feast this time, he would be locked up in a small dark room by the Imperial Guards and studied as a special sample.

In the deep palace, the Imperial Guards are always very mysterious. They are indifferent to the affairs of the outside world, as if no matter how bad the battles in various parts of the empire are, as long as they don't break into Holy Terra or even the palace, they don't care about anything.

They squat in the deep palace all day, and I don't know what weird things they are studying.

But fortunately, this meeting did not turn out to be as bad as Gu Hang expected.

Yan Xinzhen talked to him kindly about some things about psychic energy, how to deal with high-level psychics, and how to exercise psychic power.

By the way, they also talked about the current situation in various parts of the empire.

Gu Hang found that the Imperial Army Marshal actually had a good understanding of the current situation of the empire, unlike what people imagined, who really knew nothing about the outside world.

This conversation actually made Gu Hang a little puzzled.

It was a bit like a casual chat, but the Imperial Army Marshal came to him just for a simple chat?

He always felt that something was wrong.

But the attitude of Marshal Yan Xinzhen really seemed to mean "we didn't know each other before, but now we are familiar with each other."

It was confusing.

However, as far as it seems, this matter has no bad impact.

On the contrary, because of this discussion, Gu Hang's situation in the palace has changed for the better.

It seemed that it was a great honor for Gu Hang to have a private chat with Yan Xinzhen.

Such treatment may not be available to the high lords in the central empire.

His status was unconsciously raised a little.

In addition, another thing worth mentioning is that Qi Bodu would call Gu Hang over every now and then to talk about the research and development of the sixth rejuvenation surgery technology and confirm many details.

This was expected.

A month passed slowly, and nothing unexpected happened.

Until one day, an unexpected visitor came without any notice.

It was a great sage from Mars - Kaul.
