Chapter 234: War Preparations! Interstellar Governor! Spartan Plan!

At this moment, Li Ang, who was standing at the top of the Wanjie Base headquarters, was quietly watching the executives of the giant companies below, each of whom took the rail train to leave the scene.

Naturally, he also saw the intimate conversation between Jack Wells and V.

Without Leon thinking too much, he could almost guess the content of the conversation between the two.

However, Leon's attention and thoughts were not entirely focused on the internal executive structure of the giant global company and the "Halo" universe he was about to visit.

But it is about the management of other worlds.

Not long ago, Le Ang convened a universal conference and called all the alien forces from all over the universe to the Ideal City for a meeting.

The main contents of the meeting are as follows:

First, everyone should continue to develop the interstellar trade circle. I will take care of you and make you eat and drink the best food. Don’t do any small tricks for no reason. Be careful or I will bomb you with the Moon of War.

Second, it rewarded and supported a wave of alien civilization factions that were close to the world's giant corporations, and attacked and destroyed a number of civilization forces that were hostile to the giant corporations.

It's a typical case of giving sweet dates and beating with a heavy stick. The advantages of being a good grandson and the disadvantages of being a rebellious son are laid out before you. It's up to you to choose which path to take.

In this way, Leon captured typical people and killed them to establish his authority, eradicated the civilized forces that opposed the giant enterprise, and let the Reaper Queen establish a defense line in the giant enterprise's territory and various resource areas.

This is to guard against other civilized forces, who might suddenly come and backstab Leon when he focuses on the Halo world.

After five years of rapid expansion and reproduction, the population of worker ants, soldier ants and other species of the Harvester civilization has rapidly doubled from the initial 800 billion to 3500 billion!

With such a huge number of ant colonies, it is definitely more than enough for the harvesters to act as watchdogs to guard the power map and resource areas of giant companies.

In fact, most of the main forces of the expeditionary forces of the world's giant companies in the past few years are the "soldier ants" of the Reaper civilization.

With this group of outsourced mercenaries who require no money and can reproduce quickly, the world's giant corporations have been able to save a lot of military expenses.

And for the Harvester civilization with a hive consciousness, this kind of human wave tactic is also their common tactical play, and it is normal to exchange lives for victory.

Combined with the powerful weapons provided by the giant corporations in the world, the destructive power of this outsourced mercenary group is simply overwhelming!
Of course, in addition to taking the above-mentioned tactical defensive measures, Le Ang also placed his own confidants as governors and core executives in various universes.

For example, Mann is responsible for the 001 "Underworld" universe, Johnny is responsible for the 002 "Pacific Rim" universe, and Qiwei is responsible for the defense circle of the megastructure in the main universe.

As for the 003 "Edge of Tomorrow" universe, which has the most complicated situation and involves multiple alien forces, Leon sent the reliable V as the interstellar governor.

And the young David Martinez will be promoted to the front line of the battles in the heavens!
After completing the above defensive deployments, Leon finally made the basic preparations for entering the 004 "Halo" universe.

To fight against foreign aggression, one must first stabilize the internal situation. After completing this wave of small operations, Li Ang just wanted to give himself a thumbs up.

Thinking of this, he continued to open the holographic screen of the headquarters database and checked the existing force distribution of the Universal Corporation.

"Sure enough, the number is still about the same as before, not much of an increase."

After seeing that the current core combat force of the global giant enterprise was similar to that of a few years ago, Leon nodded thoughtfully.

Such a change was within his expectations, after all, it was his own doing.

As of now, the number of regular armed forces of the Universal Corporation is approximately 1.5 million, one third of which are stationed in the 003 universe.

One third of the core troops were withdrawn from the resource areas and core industrial areas of the main universe, 001 and 002 universes.

The remaining troops are the forces that can be mobilized for this war of the heavens, but with this group of soldiers, it is actually quite sufficient.

After all, if the battle really gets to the point where tens of millions of people are needed to fill the line, it will basically be the same as losing the battle.

This force of 1.5 million people may seem a little small for a universal corporation spanning three universes. In fact, if replicants and clones are included, there are a total of 5 million people.

But 5 million people alone is still not enough.

If we add in non-staff forces, such as the Reaper Civilization and the civilizations of the Universal Trade Circle, the number would be quite exaggerated.

The total number of deployable troops of the entire Universal Alliance has reached 500 billion. This huge number of troops is just the tip of the iceberg!

The reason why Li Ang did this was that he intended to control the number of his own troops and maintain it at an appropriate level, and also to reduce additional expenses.

After all, the military establishment and treatment of the world's giant companies are definitely among the elite. The high income and high welfare have also attracted countless young people to join.

Especially for the elite members of the Iron Hands Astartes Chapter, their salaries usually range from 5 to 30 times that of ordinary soldiers.

Veterans who have served for more than three years can enjoy free medical benefits.

If someone unfortunately dies in battle, the regulatory department of the giant company will provide a series of welfare policies after verifying their family situation to ensure the survival and medical care of their relatives.

However, if these families are found to have violated laws and regulations or to have been wasteful, all welfare support will be immediately withdrawn.

As a shrewd executive of a giant corporation, what Leon has to do is to pursue efficiency and maximize profits. A human force that is too large will cause unnecessary extra expenses.

So he did what many companies do, which is to outsource the team.

Let the insects of the Harvester civilization and soldiers from other civilizations of the Universal Alliance serve as pawns and watchdogs for the giant companies, which can save a lot of expenses.

"It's great to use outsourced personnel. They don't provide benefits or pensions, but the remaining resources can be used elsewhere."

Seeing this perfect personnel optimization structure, Li Ang nodded with satisfaction. If the time really came when he needed to sacrifice his life, it would be these alien heretics who would die.

They really... I cried to death!

At that time, it would be enough to erect a monument to simply commemorate the contribution made by the alien friend to the giant enterprise. The giant enterprises in the world have always been so generous and magnanimous.

In addition to outsourcing a large number of operations, Li Ang also did not forget to plant his own traitor among the alien civilizations in the 003 universe.

Most of these traitors are alien dignitaries and bigwigs who were successfully bribed by Li Ang, causing the alien friends to fight against each other.

In fact, as long as it is an alien civilization with a structure similar to that of human civilization, its nobles and the untouchables, these two different classes, are like incompatible horoscopes.

They think every day that “the emperor takes turns, and it will be my turn next year”, and the contradiction between them is irreconcilable.

Therefore, under Li Ang's control and intervention, the global giant companies supported the local dignitaries in carrying out suppression actions, while supporting the leaders of the rebels to deal with the dignitaries.

The main point is to treat everyone equally.

This operation, which is similar to the interstellar version of "fighting crickets" and provokes internal friction among the enemy, also enables the giant company to basically firmly control the situation in the 003 universe.

After making sure that no other layouts were missed, Li Ang turned all his attention to the 004 "Halo" universe that had been opened. Not long ago, the members of the advance team led by David Martinez and others had sent the intelligence information there back to the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Worlds.

Now Leon can be sure that the planet on the other side of the star gate is the Harvest Planet in "Halo".

This also means that the first civilization that Leon came into contact with was most likely human civilization.

When it comes to the human civilization in "Halo", we can't help but mention the Spartan warrior - Master Chief, the human military organization, and the United Nations Space Command, also known as the UNSC.

'United Nations Space Command, Spartan...'

Leon muttered something thoughtfully, and he began to recall the human civilization in "Halo" and the situation of the UNSC.

In his impression, the human civilization in "Halo" is not like the humans ruled and controlled by giant global corporations. Their civilization is full of colonial uprisings and riots.

The reason is that the government there is really inhumane. It treats the humans in the colonies like cattle and horses and provides no welfare protection.

In order to deal with the increasingly violent colonial rebellion, the senior executives of the UNSC came up with a brilliant idea.

Since there is no way to solve the problem, then solve the person who caused the problem!
Thus, the Orion Sparta Project, originally intended to suppress colonial riots, began.

The so-called Spartan Plan is that the government selects some children and starts genetic modification from an early age to train them into super human warriors.

That’s right, the Spartan, a super warrior capable of flying into the sky and into the earth, was originally used to attack humans themselves, in order to quell rebellions and suppress colonial riots.

This is very consistent with human nature.

Since some people want to play the "are kings, princes, generals, and ministers born of different species?" trick, don't blame the official iron fist. Teach you mobs a lesson on how to behave honestly.

The leader of the project, Katherine Elizabeth Halsey, had the UNSC secretly kidnap a group of children who met the transformation requirements and began transformation experiments.

Well... that's just inhuman.

After that, these children were put through military training and genetic modification surgery with a mortality rate of over half.

In the end, only 33 people managed to survive and became the strongest Spartan II warriors in human history.

Among them is the Master Chief, John 117, who is well-known to countless players.

However, this Spartan plan is really useful. It was originally designed to create super soldiers to defeat one's own people, but it can also be used to fight foreign enemies.

There were only a few dozen Spartan warriors, but they were beaten to a pulp by those space scoundrels from the Covenant.

But whether it is the Star Alliance or the power of mankind, these are not what Leon is most worried about.

The Flood is the biggest and most difficult trouble to deal with.

The disgusting thing created by Orogene Narodeng using the pioneer gene can infect and devour all intelligent creatures, and take over the bodies, knowledge, and memories of intelligent creatures.

Allow yourself to evolve quickly!
The infection process of the Flood's viral spores can be roughly divided into several situations.

In the first stage, it descends on a civilized planet and begins to spread in the wild. During this period, the Flood virus is the easiest to control and eliminate.

In the second stage, after infecting a certain number of intelligent creatures, the Flood will begin to help each other, hide their own tracks, and use various ambush strategies to rapidly expand in size.

At this stage, it is basically difficult to control the reproduction of the Flood, unless the planet has a higher level of civilization and has other countermeasures.

Otherwise, we will have to give up the right to occupy this planet.

In the third stage, the Flood successfully used a large number of intelligent creatures to breed corpse-brain beasts!
This is basically equivalent to the star system where the planet is located having become the home of the Flood, because under the influence of the Corpse-Mind Beast, the Flood will quickly occupy the space of the entire galaxy.

The speed at which they harvest the entire star system is no slower than that of the mimics, and may even be faster.

The core program of the Corpse Mind Beast is "revenge".

Therefore, they will reproduce and assimilate all intelligent creatures at all costs, with the goal of destroying all species in the entire Halo universe to make it easier for the primordial to rebuild civilization.

Even if the Universal Corporation wants to deal with the Flood, it must first capture a Flood and extract a genetic sample. Of course, it would be best to have a genetic sample from a Pioneer.

Only in this way can the Manticore virus be used to deal with the Flood.

But the problem lies in the fact that the pioneers are basically dead. Even if Leon wants to look for them, he can probably only rely on digging graves to find the remains of the pioneers.

Or they could capture a Flood demon and forcibly extract its genetic sample, but the Flood demon is not so easy to control, and it might even backfire and infect their own people.

At this time, Li Ang shook his head. After sorting out the clues in his mind, he looked at the new information sent by the Zhutian Advance Team.

Based on the information displayed, Leon judged that the current time point in the Halo universe should be before the Covenant arrived at Harvest.

In other words, the current time period should be the story of "Halo 1".

"Something is not right. If the debris in low-Earth orbit was not done by those street thugs from the Covenant, then it can only be done by human rebels."

In Leon's impression, he clearly remembered that the time when the planet Harvest was colonized by humans was 2468.

The local humans fought against the alien alliance of the Covenant in 2525, when the population of Harvest was about 30.

In this case, the real situation is most likely that the wreckage of the ship that appeared in low-Earth orbit was created by the villain army.

However, because Harvest is located in a marginal area and the local humans have strong resistance to the authorities, the UNSC did not send a large force to garrison it.

Sergeant Johnson, a former Spartan-1 soldier, came to Harvest Planet to urgently train a group of defense troops under the instructions of his superiors.

And reduce the resistance of local people as much as possible.

Taking all factors into consideration, the timeline here should be around 2500 years.

Thinking of this, Li Ang immediately sorted out all the information he knew and compiled the exact data.

Then it was sent separately through the headquarters' superluminal subnet to David, the captain of the Advance Team of the Universe who was at the front line.

This key intelligence will help David and others better carry out the next mission.

Since the humans in "Halo" have not yet gone to war with the Covenant, the interstellar war situation here has not yet entered a brutal and white-hot stage.

Then the global giant company will be able to successfully clear the Halo universe at the lowest possible cost and at the fastest speed!
