Chapter 281 "Secondary Use" Mombasa
"Details of the operation to capture top UNSC officials";
Sui Yang clicked on the document compiled by Apu, and after a quick browse, he learned about the "kidnapping" incident that took place in the "Halo" solar system.
Although Sui Yang was a little surprised by this, overall it was still within the range of his expectations.
The Investigation Department has its own set of procedures when performing tasks, and Sui Yang also gives the Investigation Department relatively free rights to act and make decisions.
For example, when Leon, Mike, and Maggie were unfortunately involved in the hijacking of the Neptune, they took the initiative to change their original mission goals and requested assistance from the company.
Sui Yang's instructions to Ada were to throw the UNSC top management into chaos as much as possible and undermine the credibility of the UNSC and UEG.
As for how to do it, it is up to Ada to arrange it.
Because at the current stage, Sui Yang needs to focus on stabilizing the alliance of humans and elites, and seizing as many star systems and resources as possible before next year.
If the UNSC and the rebels choose to "declare war" with Atlas, even though Sui Yang does not want too many casualties on his fellow human beings, he will still allocate additional military forces to provide absolute military assistance to the Investigation Department.
The eradication of freedom and liberation is a typical example.
If the conflict continues to escalate, Corax and Mortarion will lead some young Astartes directly to the Eridana system.
However, Ada actually got in touch with the moderate rebels with the help of Cortana, and used the smuggling channel that the other party had been operating for more than ten years to transfer a large amount of individual equipment, weapons and ammunition to
The components of the Ark teleportation, as well as related engineering personnel and more elite investigators, were even sent to the investigation branch lurking on the earth.
Of course, one of the conditions for reaching cooperation with the moderate faction is to provide them with weapon support and resource subsidies.
Sui Yang knew this.
After all, if she wanted to truly reach a cooperation, Ada would definitely inform him as the owner of the company.
Sui Yang naturally signed his name on the proposal and stamped the electronic seal of "approval".
After that, Atlas sold the modular firearms and obsolete mechanical skeletons in the warehouse to the other party at "low prices".
And provide the other party with a large amount of necessary resources so that their living environment can be improved.
No matter in which universe, as long as there is a sale, Atlas will not refuse it under normal circumstances, unless the other party is an alien that cannot communicate, or a group with anti-human thoughts.
Afterwards, through investigators, she obtained important information about the upcoming meeting between UNSC and ONI senior officials in Sydney, and Ada began to make corresponding arrangements.
First, two special operations groups were ordered to quickly penetrate into the civilian space station and secretly seize the actual control of the freighter.
At the same time, Ada ordered the soldier boy to put pressure on the Sydney headquarters, forcing the UNSC and ONI senior officials to flee.
It was precisely this step in which the top management decided to flee the scene that allowed the Chinese on standby over Sydney to seize the opportunity and complete the key to all plans.
Among them, Chief of Naval Operations Konrad Volkov and ONI Director Margaret Parangoski are relatively familiar figures to Sui Yang.
Volkov's position is equivalent to that of a naval marshal. In theory, he is the most powerful general in the UNSC. He is also the "father-in-law" of another legendary figure in the "Halo" universe, Preston Cole.
Volkov's daughter became pregnant out of wedlock, and the man could not be attracted by Volkov, so Cole, who was excellent in all aspects, became his legal son-in-law.
At the same time, this operation also allowed Volkov to prevent the family from falling into public opinion and avoid more scandals.
It's just that I never paid attention to Cole who was "forced to take over" during the whole process.
Next is Margaret Parangoski
Sui Yang frowned slightly.
In high school before time travel, he had looked up relevant information about the ONI director.
He was born on the moon in 2461, and joined the UNSC Navy around the age of 22.
When ONI gradually fell out of favor due to the intensifying rebellion, and no one was willing to take over the initiative, Margaret volunteered to deal with the Agate Star where the rebellion was the most serious.
In the end, Agate Star was classified as a top secret file by ONI.
No one is allowed to view it at will, and all reports, investigations, notes, images and other information about the Agate Star have been completely cleaned by military-type intelligent AI and completely disappeared from the Internet.
Thinking about it from another angle, Agate Star may have been suppressed by strong force, and all the rebels and even all the colonists were executed.
Until the Human-Covenant War, anyone who consulted the files of Onyx without permission was still sentenced to death.
During her tenure as Director of ONI, she resorted to kidnapping, assassination, poisoning, and sterilization, as long as she could ensure the stability of the UNSC and her own political status.
According to some UNSC generals, "She is the most dangerous and terrifying person in the UNSC, bar none."
The only person who had a direct conflict with him and successfully survived was Catherine Elizabeth Halsey.
Even so, Margaret approved the launch of the SPARTAN II program and sent ONI agents to kidnap 75 children.
The purpose of creating the Spartan III phase was changed from "counterinsurgency" in the second phase to "exchanging lives for time."
Because the UNSC is almost helpless in the face of the Covenant, which has an absolute advantage in technology and scale, Margaret believes that using the lives of a few men and women to save an entire colony or to gain more time and space for the overall situation is a very cost-effective "deal".
Overall, although Margaret is ruthless, it is precisely her and ONI's various unethical actions, combined with the UNSC's frontal battlefield, that have allowed humans to survive until the rebellion of the elites.
"."
Sui Yang raised his hand and pinched his chin lightly as he fell into thought.
In the current timeline, Margaret, ONI, and the captured UNSC high-level officials all have more or less stains.
But that group of people are also practical, and they are not at the same level as the corrupt worms that the Investigation Department has disclosed on the Internet.
So he plans to "re-use" them.
After all, with the rapid expansion of Atlas, the talent pool must keep up.
The field that Margaret is good at is very suitable for the Investigation Department and the Supervision Department, as well as the Gray Judge against the threat of the subspace.
For example, Volkov and a group of generals have rich combat experience, especially in orbital seizure, landing and interstellar naval warfare.
You should know that the orbital commando he formed was modeled after the UNSC's Hell Paratroopers, and the UNSC's Hell Paratroopers have a history of more than 300 years.
As for how to make the other party "willingly" become one's own employees.
"Notify the Investigation Department." Sui Yang glanced at Apu and ordered:
"Let them use the captives to convey some brief information to the UNSC and local humans, and then send the captives to our space area. I will be responsible for the interrogation in person."
"Okay, boss." Apu nodded and agreed.
And what Sui Yang meant by "personal interrogation" was to let Alexia and Halsey assist, and then he would release psychic energy for [transformation].
Although the psychic power that controls people's hearts will damage the mental health of the controlled, if you want to make the best use of "things" and ensure the other party's loyalty, this is the most reliable solution.
As for Sui Yang's psychic illumination of the elite race, it was just a psychological suggestion of "loyalty" in the subconscious of that group of fighting peoples, and it had no side effects on mental and physical health.
Of course, psychic power is not omnipotent.
The elites and humans in the "Halo" universe basically have no talent in psychic power, so they can't compete with him.
If it is a subspace creature like Moyido, or a heretic who believes in evil gods, it has an "immune" effect.
Even for the sons of the original body, he can only use practical actions and verbal education to guide the correct values and avoid burying hidden dangers.
"By the way." At this time, Sui Yang seemed to sense something and instructed Apu:
"Notify Corax and Mortarion to select 200 young Astartes from the accompanying trainee group, and immediately board the friendly Warrior's Sorrow to go to the Eridana system together to stand by.
If necessary, you can follow the command of the Investigation Department first."
"Yes, boss." Apu responded again in a low voice.
Sui Yang made such an arrangement because he always felt that the subspace had already eroded the near-earth colonies of the Halo universe invisibly.
The Grey Judges, composed of Greek gods and elite soldiers, were unlikely to fight against them, so a Primarch was necessary to "hold the stage".
And the "friendly forces" and "Warrior's Sorrow" that Sui Yang mentioned were actually a CCS-class battlecruiser commanded by an elite captain.
Corax and Mortarion grew up together and cooperated well.
The two Primarchs, plus two hundred young Astartes and the elite combat power of a whole cruiser were enough to deal with most emergencies.
Finally, Perturabo came alone.
For the time being, the Elf Queen Tinas was still responsible for daily care.
Fortunately, Alexia, who was concentrating on studying the Monk of Prejudice with Halsey, prepared sufficient nutrients in advance to ensure that the young Primarch could get the calories and nutrition he deserved.
Besides, Perturabo had just turned one month old. Even though he had self-awareness, he was in a relatively safe New Era aircraft carrier, so his development speed was relatively slow.
After he could run and jump, Sui Yang prepared to let his youngest son contact Fulgrim, Angron and Riemann.
After collecting his thoughts and dealing with important matters, he refocused his energy on the battle for colonies in front of him.
April 18.
New Mombasa City, East Africa, Earth in the "Halo" universe;
New Mombasa City did not come to a standstill due to the attack on the UNSC headquarters, and everything was running as usual.
It was now evening, and residents who had finished a day's work were shuttling between cities.
The public transportation system was close to being full, and the vehicles on the streets had to experience the daily congestion.
It might be the lack of room-temperature superconducting materials, or mature condensed matter technology, or simply the cost issue, which led to the scarcity of civilian flying boats in the "Halo" universe.
The rail elevator that can reach the sky has become a landmark building in New Mombasa.
The commercial street where the old and new city meet is even more lively.
Although it is called a commercial street, the lights of the shop signs here are mostly red and pink, and there are even holographic portraits of graceful figures.
All signs indicate that this seems to be a "red light street".
The darker the sky gets, the more prosperous the business becomes.
The people under UEG rule, especially those living on Earth, are indeed much richer than those in other colonies.
But they also face much more pressure.
The consumption of housing, food, etc. is several times that of the colonies, and the wealth is the average.
If we look at the middle position, the disposable wealth of the residents of Earth may not be as good as that of the colonists far away from the border.
In order to continue to stimulate consumption, the UEG government secretly regulates conflicts in faith, gender, politics, etc., resulting in inflation and rising housing prices, car prices, etc. for the residents of Earth and near-Earth colonies.
Therefore, places such as red-light districts have become places where residents can release themselves.
Passing through the junction of the old and new towns of Mombasa, you can see heavily made-up women, men, and even androgynous human ** demons standing in front of their respective shops to attract customers.
The bars, nightclubs, and restaurants located near these shops are also doing a booming business.
However, in order to reduce the number of police calls from the New Mombasa Police Station, there are still a large number of gangsters here to maintain the normal order.
Those who are drunk and dare to take advantage of the opportunity to molest the gigolos and prostitutes will be beaten up by the thugs until they are thrown out of the street half dead.
At this moment.
A bearded man wearing a desert-colored long-sleeved shirt and black overalls is walking in this red-light street.
"Wow!"
Seeing the strong man who is a circle bigger than ordinary people, the bikini girl standing at the door of the custom shop hurriedly threw a coquettish eye at him and whispered:
"Strong man, do you want to play with me~ Just 20 credits, you can experience the feeling of flying~."
"."
Hearing this, the strong man just waved his hand to refuse, without saying anything more.
"Hey~." The girl pretended to be sorry and continued to recruit other potential customers.
In fact, the sturdy man walking towards a restaurant was Chris Redfield, the senior leader of the special operations team of the Investigation Department.
He and the three special operations teams he led did not participate in the "kidnapping" operation a few days ago, but continued to carry out the original "anti-corruption" mission to increase public support for the company.
Entering the restaurant;
"Three portions of ugali with grilled meat, six portions of samosa fried snacks, and a cup of room temperature water."
Chris sat at the door with ease and completed the order to the waiter who walked towards him.
"Okay, sir."
The waiter used the tablet in his hand to inform the kitchen of the amount of grilled meat and snacks needed, and then handed Chris a glass of room temperature water.
"Thank you."
Chris took the water and habitually expressed his gratitude, then observed the every move of the custom shop opposite through the automatic induction glass door.
Because the ultimate target of their operation this time was the police chief, Kinsler, who was regarded as a "bastard" and "scum" by the people of New Mombasa.
The person Chris is looking for is a police inspector who knows the trajectory of Kinsler's life.
