Schwerin Hive, Spaceport.
Three Cobra-class destroyers were neatly parked at the berth at the spaceport.
The arrival of the Space Wolves detachment made the situation in the Schwerin hive completely clear and also accelerated the development of everything.
Fu Qinghai and Koshveto's original plan was to seize the frigate and use the frigate's superior firepower to force other cargo ships and armed merchant ships in the privateering fleet to surrender. As a result, as soon as the three Cobra-class destroyers arrived, the privateering fleet of the Thorndike family directly surrendered to the entire detachment, thus saving trouble.
In the military berth area of the spaceport, Fu Qinghai and Koshevitto stood together and talked in low voices. The two were reviewing the action, which Koshevitto named "left jab" and "uppercut".
Koshveto's capture of the frigate was a "left jab operation".
Fu Qinghai's approach to settling the four major families was "Operation Uppercut".
Fu Qinghai did not comment on Koshveto's special habits, such as having to come up with a code name before launching an operation, and having to call "sir" during the operation... He praised Koshveto's clever strategy in seizing the bridge - letting Butz dress up as a defeated sailor and sneak into the bridge waiting for an opportunity to behead him. This move allowed the key structural facilities on the bridge to be preserved to the greatest extent.
"What about you, Qingshan? You said that Baron Zeddu used the astropath's psychic prophecy to know your existence and arrival in advance. How did you thwart his conspiracy?"
Fu Qinghai shrugged:
"It's very simple. I used a trick to separate the human from the armor. I often use this trick. I pretended to go to the bathroom and inserted the chip of the artificial intelligence back into the power armor. Then I explained the whole story to my artificial intelligence. The rest depends on her performance."
Upon hearing this, Koshvituo's eyes widened and he pointed at Fu Qinghai and said:
"Wait, you hypocritical dog, didn't you tell me..."
"Hahaha." Fu Qinghai laughed and spread his hands:
"I know what you're going to say. There's a fundamental difference between us. My AI was created by me line by line of code, while your AI was developed by the UNSC. How can they be the same?"
It turned out that long before the two decided to launch the action, Fu Qinghai had asked Koshveto this question:
"Kosh, as far as I remember, the Master Chief's power armor has an intelligent AI built into it - Cortana. Does your power armor have one too?"
Koshvito said,
"I once had a third-generation intelligent AI, Iona, numbered IOA 7201-4. After seven years of service, Iona experienced a decline in intelligence and became insane, so I uninstalled her."
The artificial intelligence technology of the UNSC in the Halo Universe is divided into two categories:
one is called stupid AI, which is created using traditional code programming methods. It has a high IQ and is very smart, but does not have the creative ability to apply knowledge to other situations and complex and diverse personal emotions.
The other type is called intelligent AI, which is created by scanning and copying the human brain. It is a comprehensive enhancement of stupid AI, can learn independently, and has personal emotions, but its lifespan is short. After about seven years of use, it will inevitably experience a decrease in intelligence entropy.
The reduction of wisdom entropy means that an intelligent AI will irreversibly enter a period of madness after seven years of service. To put it bluntly, it will drive itself crazy.
At that time, Fu Qinghai solemnly warned Koshveto:
"Kesh, no matter whether the AI built into your power armor is stupid or smart, don't try to use artificial intelligence in the Warhammer 40K universe easily. Especially don't rashly connect artificial intelligence to some equipment that you are not sure of its origin. It may have terrible consequences."
Koshevitto did listen to it, but he didn't expect that Fu Qinghai was a guy who only allowed the officials to set fires but not the common people to light lamps. He was famous for his double standards in the reincarnation world. On the one hand, he warned others to be wary of AI, while on the other hand, he was better than anyone else at playing AI.
Fu Qinghai laughed it off, said a few words to comfort the Spartan warrior, patted him on the shoulder, and formally said goodbye to Koshveto:
"Kesh, I will be returning to the throne world soon. The follow-up arrangements for the Schwerin Hive World will be left to you."
The Spartan nodded,
"No problem, Aoyama. Leave it to me."
As he spoke, Koshvito reported his subsequent action plan to Fu Qinghai:
"There are still some remnants of the Thorndike family on the run. It is not an easy task to find them in the huge hive world. It may take a long time."
Fu Qinghai nodded:
"Well, the Sommerfeld family will cooperate with you. If you need anything, just ask them. It doesn't matter if you want money or people."
Fu Qinghai and Koshvito both believed in cutting the grass at its roots. Even though the Thorndike family had collapsed, the privateering fleet had surrendered, and the patriarch and direct heirs were all dead, they could not achieve anything and could not cause any waves.
But Fu Qinghai is not the classic villain in "Hamlet" and "The Orphan of Zhao". He will not let anyone with the surname "Thorndike" live in this world.
"The Bentham family has also surrendered to us. What should we do?"
Koshvito asked.
Fu Qinghai said without thinking too much:
"They are just a bunch of opportunists who follow the wind. In the future development model of the hive city I plan, there is no room for these organ dealers and slave traders. The prosthetic modification technology and biochemical modification technology they have are also very crude and there is nothing worth learning from. Since the Second Schwerin Regiment is gone, find an opportunity and a reason to kill them all, and make sure no one slips through the net."
"OK."
Koshvito nodded in response, and then asked,
"The Kronin family, the patriarch Osvid Kronin was rescued from the meeting site by your order. He was seriously injured and dying, but now he has regained consciousness after replacing a lot of mechanical prostheses. What should the Kronin family do with it?"
Fu Qinghai thought for a moment and then said slowly,
"The Hive World needs the Miners' Union and Drilling Merchants. Quotas, mining, pricing, and commissions. Don't touch the power of the Kronin family for now. Keep them as they are. It's not good to let Sommerfeld dominate alone. The Spartan Gang at this stage can't even control the main hive city, let alone the entire hive world. Before the comprehensive reform comes, we need to establish some checks and balances to maintain stability."
"OK."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Koshvito accepted all of Fu Qinghai's opinions and suggestions.
After the two of them conspired in this way, the old history of the four major families was completely turned over, and only two major families remained in the Schwerin Nest.
Fu Qinghai looked around, covered his mouth and lowered his voice and said to Koshvito:
"Cyril is just a puppet, acting as the planetary governor for a while. Do you see the young woman with gray hair in the distance? Gladys Sommerfeld, after I return to Terra, I will try to make some efforts with the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Military Affairs to make her the official planetary governor. You can work with her now."
Koshveto turned his head and looked in the direction Fu Qinghai was looking. A noble girl dressed exquisitely and gorgeously was standing in the distance, staring at the three Cobra-class destroyers.
The Spartan nodded slightly to show his understanding.
Just as the two finished chatting, a red-haired, red-bearded Space Marine wearing light grey power armor and a wolfskin on his power backpack came over and said,
"Captain Qingshan, we have completed the preliminary exploration of the Schwerin Hive, and the situation is basically consistent with the post-war report you submitted... Sorry for the long wait, come on board and return to Terra with us."
Return with us to Terra...
He didn't know how long he had been waiting for these words, ever since Fu Qinghai was thrown to the edge of the hazy star field by the Exile Gate, and ever since Fu Qinghai returned to the Warhammer 40K universe after experiencing many reincarnation worlds.
The only astropath on the planet died, and Fu Qinghai thought that he might have to stay in the hive world for several years or even decades before being discovered by other merchant fleets and brought back to Terra. Unexpectedly, he met the passing Space Wolves detachment so soon.
When Fu Qinghai heard this, for a moment he was actually... filled with emotion and his heart was surging.
He glanced at the Spartan warrior in front of him, then glanced at the gray-haired noblewoman in the distance, took a deep breath, calmed his complicated and turbulent emotions, and said softly,
"Okay."
The red-haired Space Marine stared at Fu Qinghai's tattered armor shell for a second, and added in a low voice:
"Also, congratulations on retaking a hive world by yourself."
......
Operation: LEFT JAB was a UNSC military operation launched during the Fall of Reach on August 14, 2552. This operation was to be carried out in conjunction with Operation Uppercut to destroy the Covenant supercarrier CSO-class Long Night. If Uppercut was responsible for destroying the Long Night, then Left Jab was to assist the former and distract the Covenant fleet.
Here, Costa Rica used the code name of the operation to pay tribute to the original Halo, and it seems that no one has noticed this easter egg.
