Chapter 11: Anger
Yun Yi didn't hear what Lin Jiaoyang was saying, at this time, he was tapping on Lin Jiaoyang's exclusive light brain with great interest.
What is displayed on the screen is all the holographic stereoscopic images of the Unicorn Fortress battle from the failure of the host [Kirin] to the surrender of the New American Fleet. Such a detailed image is only stored in Lin Jiaoyang's light brain, and all others can get is an abridged version, and the image uploaded to the interstellar network is an abridged version of the abridged version, basically in addition to the picture that can highlight the powerful image of the fortress and the mighty image of the Chu Tang fleet, there are only piles of wreckage left.
As someone with super artificial intelligence, of course, he can see everything he wants without leaving home, but in the past few days after the battle, he has been busy in the computer room of the [Kirin] console, and he has no time to care. As for why he was on his side, one of the reasons was that Lin Jiaoyang asked him to completely restore the [Kirin] host, and cooperate with those light brain engineers to upgrade and evolve the host program to prevent the host from being damaged by the spies again.
Is the host so vulnerable to virus attacks? The answer is no.
It wasn't until afterwards that Yun Yi didn't know that the main culprit of such a serious problem with the [Qilin] host was the primary artificial intelligence [Sakura] that had been dormant in that light brain core before. Originally, [Sakura], who was just simple and only knew how to carry out the orders given to her by Yunyi, entered the huge interstellar network in that accident in South Alta, and received too much information, and this information is extremely complex and multifaceted, from astronomy to geography, the secret daring of a certain organization, the top-secret documents of a certain company, the next plan of a certain government, etc., as well as the menstrual cycle of a certain pet cat, the final exam paper of the third grade of a certain elementary school, and the love letter that someone just sent, There are even bad images of some people hiding in their light brains, etc......
The sudden influx of huge and complex information is impossible for Sakura, who is only a rudimentary artificial intelligence, to analyze. But on top of the interstellar network, it directly uses the network to control tens of billions of billions of light brains to help it analyze and calculate. The end result of this is that Sakura is unable to accept such complex relationship information and is forced to enter a dormant state of autonomous evolution. It wasn't until some time ago that [Sakura] gradually sorted out this messy data, and it happened to be taken out by Yun Yi and put next to the light brain, as soon as he entered the network, [Sakura] found that there was a super light brain nearby.
A super light brain is like a person who has been hungry for three days and three nights when he sees a large piece of chicken burger.
Therefore, this bad intelligence that saw a delicious meal as soon as he opened his eyes directly came out of his body, and entered the host of [Qilin] through the light brain without Yun Yi noticing, which caused all this now.
If McLean knew that all this was just because Yun Yi took out the light brain core and put it next to the light brain because he was bored, I wonder if his ghost would be in hell again......
Another reason why Yunyi stayed in the engine room was because of [Sakura]'s request.
After [Sakura] gave a detailed explanation, Yun Yi realized that [Sakura], who had just woken up, had not yet finished digesting the things that had been swallowed in a mess. In the past few days, it has only completed the calculation of the most basic part of the data of its own subject. In Sakura's words, "People have just built their brains!" ”
So, in the past few days, Yunyi has been drilling in the engine room, never leaving except for eating and sleeping. This made Guo Shanwen, who was responsible for the task of upgrading the [Kirin] program and replacing the damaged components, and the group of optical brain engineers he brought very admired, coupled with Yun Yi's occasional teaching of some advanced hacking knowledge and optical brain knowledge, which made these senior officers and senior engineers even more shocked, one by one by wrapping around Yun Yi to ask the questions he had been thinking about for many years, and Yun Yi never shirked, and happily helped them solve the problem, which made Yun Yi even more distressed, Because these people followed him almost every day and asked to learn the arts.
As a last resort, Yun Yi threw [Sakura] into the computer room and fled to Lin Jiaoyang's office by himself, so that he could get rid of these people. As for the computer room, [Sakura] only needs to virtually create a host program and throw it to these people to fiddle with, and hide in the background to do their own things, with the level of these people, even if they learn for another fifty years, don't want to find out.
Seeing that Yun Yi was paying attention to the stereoscopic image, Lin Jiaoyang didn't bother him.
After reading it, Lin Jiaoyang smiled slightly: "Do you have any ideas?" ”
"The classic World War is enough to be included in textbooks for future generations to observe and learn." Yun Yi smiled and asked with some puzzlement: "Marshal, now that the New America has suffered such a big defeat, there is no defensive force in the country that can withstand a war. Coupled with the political chaos caused by the defeat, why don't we take the opportunity to attack? ”
"This is a question that more than one person has asked these days."
Lin Jiaoyang sat on the sofa next to Yun Yi, put his hands behind his head and looked at the ceiling, and said lightly: "Do you think that with the domestic situation, it is appropriate if I send the fleet out to attack New America at this time?" ”
Yun Yi suddenly came to his senses, patted his head, and said to himself: "It seems that my thinking has been a little confused in front of the light brain these days." This question is actually not difficult to see, just a little thought, Yun Yi understands the problem. Although Lin Jiaoyang has twenty fleets in his hands, the territory he controls is not very solid, and he secretly does not know how many people are staring at him. As long as Lin Jiaoyang dares to send out the fleet, even if only half of it is sent, it is very likely that the backyard will catch fire.
"Therefore, the top priority is to resolve the internal contradictions first." Lin Jiaoyang glanced at him, and from the expression on his face, he could see that Yun Yi had understood. Then, he said: "As for the New America, although it has lost most of its main fleet, they still have nearly 200,000 local fleets, plus the defense forces in various places. If we send out fewer fleets, we may still suffer defeat; If there are too many factions, Qin Shou and Chu Xiuling will definitely not let go of this opportunity. Instead of desperately grabbing a few planets, it is better to fight steadily and win steadily. ”
Yun Yi was slightly stunned, not because of Lin Jiaoyang's strategic thinking, but because of the name that appeared in his words.
Chu Xiuling......
If I remember correctly, Lin Jiaoyang used to call the prince. But what's the matter today, he actually dared to call Chu Xiuling's name directly.
Could it be ......
Yun Yi's heart suddenly had an idea, and he suddenly became excited.
"Huh." As soon as Lin Jiaoyang saw the change in Yun Yi's expression, he understood what he was thinking, and sighed slightly: "Chu Tang, it's no longer the Chu Tang of the past." ”
After that, he didn't say anything more.
After the excitement, Yun Yi knew that Lin Jiaoyang already had an idea, but this matter could not be rushed, he could only let Lin Jiaoyang's mood slowly change, and he only needed to push it at a critical time, it was too much. After thinking about it, Yun Yi said: "Since this is the case, then we should ask New America for a large amount of war reparations. In this way, we can increase our strength, and if we come with such a large sum of money, I believe that it will be difficult for New America to make up for it, which will weaken the strength of New America economically. ”
Lin Jiaoyang laughed: "Chu Tang and New America have been fighting for hundreds of years, but I have never heard of being able to ask for compensation from the other party. As two superpowers, even if they can defeat each other, they are not capable of occupying each other's planets. Take the station where the Unicorn Fortress has just been built, New America has almost occupied most of the Guzhou Star Field, and it is not a gray retreat in the end. ”
"But this time it's different." Yun Yi raised his voice and said, "Chu Tang has lost the strength to confront us head-on. Even if the local fleet is mobilized, it is bound to give up some of the planets bordering Chu Tang to compress the defense line. Although we cannot send a large number of fleets because of our domestic travel, we can gather these fleets, and as long as we put on an offensive posture, I dare say that New America will obediently send the indemnity money.
Lin Jiaoyang pinched his chin, as if he was considering Yun Yi's proposal.
After a while, he laughed and said, "It seems that I have fallen into a misunderstanding, and I am really used to killing people." Yes, you're right, this time we have the upper hand. Besides, the areas under our control are not stable enough now, and we need a lot of money, just enough to make the new America bleed. ”
"By the way, Marshal." Yun Yi took out a bank card from his bosom and said, "When I came to the fortress and encountered the fleet disguised as New America, I got a ransom of 90 billion from them. Of these, 10 billion were handed over to Zhang Xintian's fleet, and the other 80 billion were here. ”
Lin Jiaoyang took the bank card and looked at the thin card in his hand in a daze.
"With this money, plus the reparations of the new United States, I believe that the areas under our control will definitely support us even more, and the preparation of the new fleet can also be carried out in advance." Lin Jiayang looked at Yun Yi: "Although we are a family, I still have to say to you, thank you." ”
Yun Yi smiled a little embarrassedly, but thought in his heart, he didn't know what was going on on in the blue sky. If he knew that I would give away 80 billion funds, I don't know if he would just run away?
After putting away the bank card, Lin Jiaoyang suddenly asked, "Why didn't you take it out when you first came?" ”
Yun Yi scratched the back of his head and smiled.
"I forgot ......"
……
After Yun Yi left, Lin Jiaoyang immediately gathered several subordinates who were good at diplomacy. In a short time, a diplomatic proclamation was issued, and it was soon sent from the Unicorn Fortress to the office of the president of the new American capital via ultra-long distance communication.
The new United States, which had never paid war reparations to other countries, was suddenly a little confused, and the current president, who had found it difficult to keep the presidency, immediately convened a parliament to discuss it. After the defeat, these people lived a trembling life almost every day, for fear that when they woke up, they would hear the communication of the Chu and Tang armies marching into New America. Under such pressure, almost every councillor these days needs to take a small amount of sleeping pills to fall asleep.
But now, everyone in the chamber has a surprise on their faces that is hard to hide.
That's right, exactly the surprise!
New America is a commercial country with an extremely strong business atmosphere. And those who can become parliamentarians or presidents must have a strong consortium behind them. What is the most important thing that the new America lacks, that is, money, that is, the currency issued by the Universal Bank: the Imperial Gold Dollar!
What could be easier than a problem that can be solved with money?
But to his mother's slight concern, the amount of the claim was too large.
A whole trillion imperial gold dollars is enough for any plutocracy in New America to saddle them with countless debts.
But what if it's spread?
What's more, this is just an offer from Chu Tang. is the so-called sky-high asking price to bargain, talk about it well, Chu Tang still has to give a 50% discount, right? In this way, if it is evenly distributed, each chaebol will only pay 20 or 30 billion yuan, although it is a little distressing, but it is not an unacceptable thing.
And you can also take this opportunity to discuss the issue of returning the prisoners with the invincible marshal of Chu Tang.
Soon, a diplomatic corps led by the new vice president of the United States and attended by dozens of large plutocracy headed for the unicorn fortress.
……
Unicorn Fortress, Conference Room.
Five days after the departure of the New American Diplomatic Corps, the arrival of a person forced Lin Jiaoyang to gather all the officers above the deputy commander level in the fortress to discuss the matter.
At this moment, dozens of high-ranking officers with the rank of admiral and lieutenant general in the conference room gathered, but everyone had a look of anger and disgust on their faces. It stands to reason that it should be a very happy thing to fight a big war that shocked the whole universe and forced the new United States to pay a large amount of war reparations, why is this still happening?
This started half a day ago, a spaceship sprayed with the royal emblem of Chu and Tang Dynasty and rushed to the fortress from Chang'an One Star.
When the guy who claimed to be the head of Chu Tang's Ministry of Internal Affairs left the office, the angry Lin Jiaoyang directly slapped the desk in front of him that had been transported from the Asian planet in the far northeast, and was said to be made of expensive and rare wood comparable to the hardness of an alloy.
Yun Yi, who rushed to hear the news, was also taken aback when he heard it, "This, how is this possible?" Did Chu Xiuling's brain get into the water, he actually asked us to release all the prisoners, and also send all the captured warships to the Chang'an department? ”
It was this person who made Lin Jiaoyang have to gather all the senior officers for discussion.
No one is happy!
Who can be happy to see that the New American Army, which he had worked so hard to capture with great effort, was returned in vain after a word from the royal family? In the past, the two countries were at war, not without prisoners. But those captives will have to go through at least three years of hard labor in the harsh environment of outer space before they can be redeemed at a high price. In the history of both countries, there has never been a case of returning captives in vain.
"Marshal, how can the crown prince do this! Not only did they not send a fleet to support us, but after the war they even demanded that we return all the prisoners? If I do send it back, how can I explain to my brothers who died in battle? ”
It was a middle-aged vice admiral with a beard on his face, who was the deputy commander of the Seventeenth Fleet. One of the ten fleets that served as an external offensive in this battle was extremely brave, in which his fleet annihilated at least 13,000 enemy warships, but also cost 2,000 warships, almost a million lives. These days, because of the greatest losses, the deputy commander has not been sulking, and every day he has nothing to do, he wanders around the places where the prisoners are held, eager to pull out those new Americans one by one and beat them severely. And now, when he heard that the prisoner was to be released unconditionally, no one was more angry than he.
As soon as he finished speaking, several more officers also spoke and questioned him.
Lin Jiaoyang sat on the rostrum, his face full of exhaustion. After coming into contact with the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he felt deeply tired.
"Please don't get excited." Lin Jiaoyang motioned for the speaker to sit down, and said in a deep voice: "As the commander-in-chief of this battle, first of all, I want to thank everyone, it is your unremitting efforts and fearless sacrifice that allowed us to win this battle. To be honest, even I didn't have much confidence before the battle began. However, we won, and we won very beautifully! What a remarkable feat it was to lose 10,000 warships, but defeat an army of 170,000 warships and capture more than 40,000 enemy ships. ”
The officers sitting below listened quietly, their faces gradually calming down.
Yun Yi also sat below, although his eyes kept looking at Lin Jiaoyang on the rostrum, but in his mind, he kept thinking about this matter.
Why did Chu Xiuyu let Lin Jiaoyang release these captives unconditionally?
As far as Yun Yi knew, the crown prince Chu Xiuyu didn't ask about any government affairs of this empire at all, and he ate, drank and had fun on the first star of Chang'an all day long, and handed over all the power to Cai Hongzhang from the reincarnation organization.
So it is certain that this order is definitely from Cai Hongzhang.
Soon, Yun Yi remembered the fleet he had encountered on his way to the fortress, the fleet composed entirely of New American [Poison Falcon-class] warships.
"Could it be that Cai Hongzhang has an extraordinary relationship with New America?"
He also remembered that during the interrogation of the captured new deputy commander in chief, he had been told that McLean had decided to attack when he had learned that there was a major problem with the fortress's optical brain.
Even the officers and soldiers in the fort fleet are not very clear about the problem with the fortress, why is McLean sure?
Obviously, this was told to him by someone whom McClane believed in the most.
In the previous things of the association, this person can almost call out.
Cai Hongzhang......
At this moment, Yunyi's communicator suddenly vibrated rhythmically.
This vibration of rhythm can only say one thing, and that is that some artificial intelligence is calling him.
Turn on the communicator, and a line of words will be displayed on it: "Boss, there is something very important and important for you." ”
Yun Yi was slightly stunned, and hurriedly typed: "What's the matter?" ”
"The new American fleet that sent you money has been rerouted, and after calculation, there is at least a 95% chance that it can be determined that their destination has turned to the Chang'an system!"
