Chapter 1441: Managing Alien Prisoners as Strategic Resources

On the plaza of Wangzuo Ting, Sebastian stood beneath the flagpole, while the head of Gokazi swayed gently in the night wind.

In the prisoner camp in the distance, a new batch of Orcs was being driven into an open space enclosed by barbed wire.

At this moment, the Adjutant walked over.

"Comrade Chapter Master, Jiate's convoy has already headed toward the thirteenth Buluo. The accompanying armored vehicles report that two Buluo refused to evacuate and have already been cleared out."

Sebastian nodded.

"Continue. Tell Jiate to speed up; we do not have much time."

"Understood."

The Adjutant stood at attention, turned, and left.

Sebastian walked back to the temporary command post, which was furnished with tables, chairs, and communication equipment.

Opening the battle report interface, Sebastian began to write.

"Comrade Selina, the Sons of the People Chapter has completed the clearing Task on Iron Tooth Star, the Capital Star of the Broken Bone Empire. The main force of the Alien has been wiped out, and the Alien leader Gokazi has been beheaded.

Approximately two hundred million Human compatriots have been rescued and sent to the rear in batches for resettlement. The Alien prisoners are still being counted and are being concentrated for detention, awaiting subsequent processing."

After thinking for a few seconds, Sebastian continued writing.

"During the clearing process, I discovered that the meat quality of these Aliens is not significantly different from known edible meats for Humans.

After preliminary testing, their muscle tissue is non-toxic and harmless, rich in protein and various trace Elements, and can fully serve as a food source for Humans.

Moreover, the Alien's body size is relatively large; one adult Alien can provide an amount of meat equivalent to two adult cows. The Alien possesses the ability to reproduce rapidly, with a short breeding cycle and multiple offspring per litter.

If artificially farmed and selectively bred, they can become a sustainable, low-cost meat supply channel. This can solve the meat consumption problem for some low-income groups within the Star Alliance and stabilize meat market prices.

In addition, the Alien's skin can be tanned, the bones can be processed into bone meal for use as feed or fertilizer, and the internal organs can be refined into industrial oils; almost the entire body is a usable resource."

Sebastian added one sentence at the end.

"I suggest managing the Alien prisoners as strategic resources rather than simply exterminating them. For the specific implementation plan, please let His Majesty decide."

Sebastian checked it once and pressed the send button.

The battle report was transmitted via an encrypted channel to Xiuluo Holy Star.

Xiuluo Holy Star, Yingzhou's study.

Yingzhou sat before his desk, with several documents spread out in front of him and a stack piled to the side.

Although Curze had helped him share a portion, there was still a lot left.

Selina's holographic projection appeared in the corner of the room.

"Your Majesty, the Sons of the People Chapter has sent an encrypted battle report. Chapter Master Sebastian reports that Iron Tooth Star, the Capital Star of the Broken Bone Empire, has been liberated.

The Alien leader Gokazi has been beheaded, and approximately two hundred million Human compatriots have been rescued and are being resettled in batches; the Orc prisoners are still being counted and are awaiting processing."

Yingzhou raised his head.

"Does the Broken Bone Empire have any other planets?"

Selina said.

"All other planets have been liberated, and all occupied planets of the Broken Bone Empire are now fully under the control of the Sons of the People Chapter. Sebastian has attached a personal suggestion to the battle report."

Selina brought up the holographic screen and projected Sebastian's text.

Yingzhou read it once, his eyebrows slightly raised.

"Meat quality is good? Rapid reproduction? A sustainable livelihood plan? This Sebastian, he is truly worthy of being a Chapter Master; his ideological awareness is indeed high."

Yingzhou had Selina connect the communication with Guilliman and sent the battle report to Guilliman.

"Guilliman, come here for a moment."

A few minutes later, the door was gently knocked.

Guilliman walked in, holding a Data Pad in his hand.

"Father, you summoned me."

Yingzhou gestured for him to sit down.

"Have you read the battle report from the Sons of the People?"

Guilliman sat down.

"I have. Sebastian fought beautifully. The number of Orc prisoners is massive and needs to be handled as soon as possible, otherwise, the logistical pressure will be immense."

Yingzhou said with a smile.

"Take a look at Sebastian's suggestion."

Guilliman read it once, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.

"This Sebastian, the method is entirely feasible. The Broken Bone Alien's body size is much larger than a Human's; the edible portion of an adult Alien is at least over two hundred kilograms.

If this meat is processed into canned or frozen meat products, it can supply the low-income groups of the entire Star Alliance for a long time. Furthermore, Orcs reproduce very quickly; they can give birth to several offspring in one litter, have a short gestation period, and the young grow fast.

If specialized farms are established, a stable meat supply chain can be formed, no longer affected by fluctuations in the external situation."

Yingzhou nodded slightly, signaling for Guilliman to continue.

"In terms of cost, the Aliens eat rough feed and do not require refined grain. They have strong adaptability and can be farmed on planets with harsh environments, without occupying Human farmland or pastures. For the processing stage, we can find a batch of more obedient Aliens to do it.

The Fengqi are very suitable; they have already done hard labor on resource planets and have a certain amount of organizational experience. Let them work in slaughterhouses and canning factories, give them slightly better treatment, and they will work harder, and labor costs will also come down."

Yingzhou nodded.

"Using their own methods against them; the Aliens treated Humans as Two-legged Sheep, now let them be the meat sheep themselves."

Guilliman said.

"Father is wise; this is the rational utilization of resources. When the Aliens are alive, they consume food, occupy land, and cause trouble. If they are buried or burned after death, it is truly a waste. It is better to turn them into food to sustain our Human compatriots."

Yingzhou stood up and walked to the window.

Outside the window, the distant city shimmered with golden light under the sunlight.

Those Humans were living, working, and reproducing there.

They do not know about the battle on Iron Tooth Star, nor do they know that those Orc captives are about to be turned into canned goods.

They only need to know that the price of meat will go down, and life will be a little easier.

Yingzhou turned around and walked back to the desk.

"Selina, reply to the Sons of the People Chapter that the Broken Bone Empire Task has been completed very well. Process the Alien captives according to Sebastian's suggestion: concentrate them for detention first, then transport them to the rear in batches. Establish canning factories on a few planets with not-too-harsh environments to process them on-site and reduce transportation costs.

Regarding the Fengqi, have Guilliman coordinate to select a group of Fengqi capable of labor and arrange for them to work in the canning factories. The treatment will be slightly better than on the resource planets.

Also, extract industrial grease from the internal organs, and grind the bones into powder for feed or fertilizer; use everything that can be used, do not waste anything."

"Understood."

Yingzhou sat back down in his chair.

"Guilliman, arrange the transfer of the Fengqi as soon as possible. The slaughterhouses and canning factories on Iron Tooth Star need equipment and technical personnel.

Have the Star Alliance technical department send people; they are good at this. Pay attention to epidemic prevention and food safety; do not let diseased meat flow into the market."

Guilliman recorded quickly.

"Understood. Father, I suggest processing them in batches; we can keep a portion as breeding stock to establish farms for long-term supply.

The reproduction speed of Aliens is very fast. As long as enough females and a small number of males are left, they will recover their numbers quickly. With only guards and feed, they can produce meat continuously."

The corners of Yingzhou's mouth lifted slightly.

"Guilliman, your thinking is good; let's do it that way! You are in charge of everything."

Guilliman lowered his head, humbly.

"I am only following the line of reasoning Father taught me: maximize benefits and do not waste resources."

Yingzhou said to Selina.

"Selina, notify Sebastian that the disposal plan for the Orc captives has been decided. Execute it according to Guilliman's proposal and establish the farms and processing plants as soon as possible. The Fengqi will arrive soon, and the Star Alliance technicians will also set out as soon as possible."

"Understood."

Guilliman also stood up.

"Father, if there is nothing else, I will go and arrange the transfer of the Fengqi first."

Yingzhou nodded.

"Go."
