Hofbüerner smoothed out the wrinkles of his military uniform, and he walked out of the dressing room after tidying up his appearance in the mirror.

"Knock, knock, knock."

"Please come in."

He pushed the door open, and the gray-haired woman he had seen in the dining room was standing behind Carl in a military uniform.

"My lord, I'm here." Hofbüerner said to him as he stood at his desk.

"Hofbirner, have you slept soundly these two days? Come, don't stand, sit down and talk. Carl said to him with a smile.

"Arthas, make a cup of tea for General Hofbüerner." He turned to Arthas behind him.

Arthas turned to make a cup of tea and offered it to Hofbner, who knew from the look in her eyes that she recognized herself.

"Tea, General Hofbner, please." She said to him.

"Thank you, Miss Arthas." Hofbüerner nodded in acknowledgement.

"Arthas, she's good, isn't she?" Suddenly, Karl asked.

"Indeed, oh, I'm sorry, my lord, I lost my temper." Only then did Hofbüerner react and said.

"It's okay, I'm used to your obsessive gaze on them. Let's talk about it, Admiral Hofbner. This time, what kind of battle plan did you bring to me after two days and two nights of sleepless work? How do we put on a perfect revenge counterattack against the Union Navy? You know, the temptation of the Federal Navy has been endless in the past two days! With the cooperation of the Bomb Disaster Brigade squatting at the Star Gate, they have killed four or five of their stealth bombers and interceptors one after another, and even one of them has intercepted and annihilated the Poseidon-class. Carl asked, propped up behind a large desk.

"I see, do they dare to be so bold and tempting? Do they want to replicate the combat operation against the 212th fleet again? Hofbüerner frowned.

"Yes, they're that bold. Originally, I thought they would rein in their actions a little, but hehe... It seems that a risky win has given them a big advantage! Karl also frowned.

"It's true, so it's all the more necessary for us to hit them all the more at once. It is better to annihilate them all without leaving any of them, so that they can know that the majesty of the empire cannot be provoked! Hofbüerner said firmly.

"The idea is good and the will is strong. But how to go about it? And, remember the last time the woman suddenly appeared in the conference room with a holographic projection? Karl nodded appreciatively and asked.

Remember, at that time, she also claimed to be the legendary aircraft carrier Enterprise of the Federal Navy. Hum! It's just a trick to scare people! Hofbüerner said contemptuously.

Looking at his disdain for the business, Carl felt compelled to make him realize the gravity of the situation. He organized his words and asked, "General Hofbner, do you know about the artificial intelligence drone rebellion of the Gaylent Federation after YC 88?" ”

"It's natural, I remember that the chaos caused by the has spread throughout New Eden, and the freedom drones they created have become a big scourge in the universe. So what can these do besides doing it every day? Hofbüerner laughed and said disdainfully.

"But what if that young lady who calls herself an Enterprise is also a self-aware free artificial intelligence?" Karl said coldly.

"What?! What do you say, the head of the house?! Hofbüerner was stunned on the spot.

"I mean, what if this business lady is a self-aware artificial intelligence?" Karl said unhurriedly.

"How is this possible? Haven't those faggets in the Federation always been very sensitive to this kind of thing? If this kind of thing happened, wouldn't the all be killed directly, just in case there would be another defection of the free drone? Hofbüerner asked, shocked.

"But my intelligence sources tell me that the Gallant Federation didn't do that. On the contrary, they also made a deal with this free AI to put it into service in the Federal Navy... What else will the group of rice buckets in the Ministry of Internal Affairs do except infighting?! For such an important matter, I still have to rely on my own intelligence channels! Carl clenched his fists and said.

"The head of the house is right, that group of garbage from the Internal Affairs Office should indeed be cleaned up! How many times has this been a dereliction of duty? The investigation into the interior of the empire is very positive! The Ministry of Internal Affairs is not as reliable as our own channels for foreign intelligence! Hofbüerner said angrily.

"Hehe, now is not the time to complain about the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Hofbirner, now I can tell you for sure that the shipboard AI on the legendary aircraft carrier USS Enterprise is a free AI. Karl said.

"If that's the case ... The battle plan may need to be overhauled, and the most troublesome thing is that the news cannot be disclosed to the staff officers yet. If you let them know, the morale is not optimistic... Hofbüerner said with a headache.

"Why should the plan be overhauled?" Carl asked, surprised.

"Originally, after a lot of consideration, we decided to push all the way and then divide our forces to go together, so as to force the rebel fleet to a decisive battle. Inducing stance generators are carried between the fleets, and a flagship formation is split into each fleet to ensure that the inducement time can be sustained after encountering the flagship and over-flag formations of the rebel fleet. "Hofbüerner laid out the general plan and inventory of his original research with the General Staff.

But he then said helplessly: "But now that the other party has an additional free artificial intelligence, this makes our battle plan have to be overhauled." It's simply ... ”

Looking at the indignant Hofbüerner, Karl nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Hofbüerner, are you helpless about the ability it showed to interfere with communications before?" ”

"Yes, my lord. The early stage of the plan is fine, but the key part of the later stage is the division of troops. If the communication is disrupted at this time ... Even if we send an interceptor to carry the inducing jump stargate, it's too late! He said helplessly.

"Arthas, let Richelieu and the others fetch Ehuath. She ran out to say that she was going to have a meal before, why hasn't she come back yet? Karl said to Alsace behind him.

"Okay, Carl." Arthas nodded, glanced at Hoffbüerner, and walked out of the office.

"I'll introduce you to Ivas later, she and Hayley are the experts I brought in from Gadari." Karl said to Hofbüerner.
