25.1 Commanders and Federal Strategy.

The three supreme professions represent the three warring conflicts facing the Federation at this time.

And in these three professions:

The Celestial Knight is the most respected. In the more than 800 years of war history in the solar system, several crucial Armageddon victories in space were laid down by the Celestial Knights.

The controllers are the most reverie. Because they have the most expensive strategic weapons in the Federation.

And the Commander class is the one that gets the most attention. Because for almost two hundred years, there were no large-scale space fleet operations, at most only artillery shelling of patrol boats. The Sky Knight Cluster only made a few sorties. Only against a few large planets on the ground has hardly stopped the war.

[The Confederation is pursuing a strategic decision that is beneficial to itself. 】

Thanks to historical development and progress, the political system of the Federation has the advantage of talent production.

On several other planets there are either theocracy or religious systems. The backward system can only ensure the stability of power at the top, but in the fierce confrontation, there is a shortage of talents.

Now, no matter how solidified the class of the Federation is, no matter how many problems there are in the system, it is far more enlightened than those three planets.

Not to mention the year.

The elites of those three planets have learned the technology of the Federation, and through marriage, they have localized some of the Federation's supreme professionals, so that they can fight for the freedom and independence of water and wind, and they cannot offset the disadvantages of the system at all. (Addendum: In the case of the Fire Star, the humans above are no longer of the same species as the other three planets, and there is reproductive isolation.) )

The hard-line Federation decisively mobilized the fleet and the Sky Knight Group to fight against it head-to-head. As a result, the elites of the resistance army on the three planets were directly wiped out.

After two hundred years of fighting the rebels, the Federation did not accede to the demands of the independent powers on the three planets.

Well, the politicians of the Water Star and the Wind Star are still too naïve and naïve. As a feudal lord who has been dyed a little bit of capital, he dares to move his claws on the hegemony of the planet, and still expects the "proletarian" elites of the Federation who rely on knowledge and data monopoly to compromise first?

At that time, a fool could see that the independent forces of these three planets wanted to use a delaying tactic to take a breath, maintain the capital of splitting, and then slowly plan for it in the future.

The Confederation did not care about them at all, and in a large vote, passed a bill to continue the war.

After fighting the interstellar war, the Federation began a large-scale ground war over the next three hundred years, dragging the three great planets of water, fire, and wind into an endless war of attrition.

It seems that the Federation is constantly throwing a lot of manpower and money into the three planets, which is an endless investment, but the war investment cannot be seen only by its own losses. A large number of industrial talents native to those three major planets have lost blood in the ground war, and a large number of high-level talents have also been dragged into the ground war confrontation, so they have no strength to invest in space development.

……

Three hundred years ago, when the federal top brass adopted this strategy of attrition, the effect was obvious.

Originally, three hundred years ago, after the main fleet was annihilated, the three planets were able to gather a group of fortress fleets with heavy armor and heavy artillery but not suitable for long-distance voyages near the planets, and fight some near-space fleet battles with the fleets of the Federation.

And today, the total number of units that can float in space for more than three months on the three planets does not exceed a hundred.

Moreover, these poor space units are all lightly armoured, high-speed (not as fast as the Sky Knights), and high stealth routes, and their weapons do not have main guns, but lasers and short-range space nuclear missiles, struggling in the asteroid belt. These pirate-class warships will be completely wiped out when they encounter the regular fleet of the Federation. Even if you exchange fire with a patrol boat and don't quickly break away and stealth after the start of the fight, you will still be crushed to death by the Sky Knight Cluster. The Federation already has few enemies left in space.

And on the surface of the planet, the Water Star and the Wind Star have all been set up puppet regimes by the Federation again. (The Fire Star is now being crushed to death.) )

Now look around the entire solar system,

After the Federation has built a perfect inspection system at multiple resource points in the neutral asteroid belt for two or three hundred years, these pirate fleets will also become history.

All of this is played by the "Commander" class, and it is also the Commander class that pays the price.

In the last three hundred years.

Thanks to the ship's escape design, only seventeen of the 'controllers' died. And they are all subordinate controllers, driving 10,000-ton patrol boats. Sixty-seven people died in the 'Sky Knight' class. For the last hundred and fifty years, the Celestial Knights have simply been armed patrols.

"Commander" profession, two hundred and twenty-seven people died, because the ground war base was destroyed, of which fifty-eight were the median commander and two were the upper commander.

The various professions who descended to the surface of the planet with the Commander have lost 123,000 people in three hundred years.

……

Now when it comes to war conflicts, the commander profession basically contracts the conflicts of this era.

Compared with the phenomenon of the gate valve of the heavenly knight and the controller, the commander profession is relatively more dependent on the selection of acquired talents, so the global commander selection is more extensive than the other two professions, in addition to some gate valves, there are also some poor disciples to participate in the assessment.

Therefore, the Commander profession attracts the most attention. The assessment of any supreme vocational school will cause netizens to watch. The information of each assessor, the data of the training, can be found on the Internet.

Because once the assessment is successful, it means entering the most elite class of society, well, even if it is a lower position.

……

On the day of the big exam.

Wearing a black mechanical suit, Jun Jiexing trotted on the road, and the pedestrians standing on the electric balance car on the road, after seeing Jun Jiexing's school uniform, gave way to Jun Jiexing from a distance of 20 meters.

At this time, Jun Jiexing spread out his palm while running, and a large number of light particles rotated in a spherical light area in his palm. The particles of light flowed into the computer on the arm, and a network message popped up on the eyepiece of the average star.

Light particles - this was a characteristic of the general's profession 2,000 years ago, but at this time the amount of information carried is much larger, and more complex information can be written in the device, and then launched in the emitting device as high-energy particles at a high speed of 50 kilometers per second.

At this time, the lineage of all stars is very different.

Now there are more than 200 information particles in the field of 40 meters.

The lower Heavenly Knight can expand a field with a radius of two thousand meters in the surface atmospheric environment, and the upper Heavenly Knight is about six thousand meters.

The lower commander has at least more than 1,000 information light particles, and of course, the upper commander has more than 3,000 information light particles.

For commanders, the number of light particles is one thing, and the quality of the light particles, that is, the amount of information each light particle carries, is critical. The quality of more than 200 information particles is quite high, but in terms of quantity, it is still too small.

There are fields and light particles, and they all pick up stars just stuck in the middle of the two professions, and choose a mode that is neither left nor right.

The two supreme professions are strung together, and this one is very criticized.

Well, the reserve 'commanders' of the Celestial Towers are not among the ranks of the insults. The seniors in the Celestial Tower only felt that it was a little strange to pick up stars, and at most they just shook their heads secretly.

But contempt, ridicule, well, the higher the talent, the less time there is for these things that make no sense to themselves.

……

The people who insult the stars are mainly on the Internet, those who go online in their spare time.

Swearing: "self-clever", "skewered", "huh! Bi-professional! (sarcasm)"

So this made Jun Jiexing very angry: "A good military career, what do you do with those idle and idle concerns?" They don't participate in the project, they don't study these areas of knowledge seriously, they just use their minds to release negative emotions. ”

An important reason why Jun Xingxing was insulted: Most of today's people are the debuggers of the human preferred planning system for hundreds of years, and as a traditional, they have their own superiority over strings.

And now, a string of species appears in the supreme professional assessment of the master, and most people's mentality is to faintly hope that it will fall. If the people who pick up stars are taller, not abandoned strings, but ordinary people, then their hard work will be applauded.

Because their backgrounds are the same as most people, most of them can substitute for this kind of success and admire this example of hard work.

Note: In the past few hundred years, it is not for nothing that people have been born in a "poor family" and entered the upper class through hard work, without exception, they have been praised and even made into inspirational films. The ratings are extremely high.

……

The internet was turned off and another five minutes of trotting was over.

Jun picked up the stars and came to this large mechanical base-style school.

On the playground paved with nickel steel plates, students in mechanical uniforms stood in a line, all of them picking stars and standing in the queue according to their numbers. However, a few minutes later, Jun Jiexing looked up at the slowly descending behemoth in the sky and couldn't help but inhale.

Jun Jiexing looked at this cigar aircraft and complained slightly: "As long as the power is enough, the bricks will fly into the sky." ”

The four six-meter-large fans of this huge aircraft are like fluttering ears on both sides, and under the cigar, there is a turbofan engine like a short leg, which shoots extremely powerful air and pushes back to the ground. Let this 120-ton airship-like aircraft take off and land vertically from the sky.

This is something that the earthlings of the 21st century will never develop, because militarily, this kind of vertical take-off and landing thing consumes a lot of energy, has obvious radar characteristics, and has a low survival rate.

In the 21st century, the civilian field will not develop this, because the large turbofan engine, as the industrial crown, is too expensive, and the processing of the huge body is also very troublesome. It is clear that large passenger aircraft are more effective for long-distance air transportation, while helicopters are more cost-effective for short-distance air transportation.

But this is the interstellar era, first of all, there are many minerals, whether it is tens of thousands of meters of underground deep ore vein mining, or asteroids in outer space, or deep-sea mineral mining, it is not something that people in the 21st century can imagine.

An asteroid newly developed by the Federation the year before last, and now after drilling the kernel, the annual output of rhenium metal is more than 6,000 tons!

In addition, in the era of large-scale artificial intelligence, the production line capacity of the major cities of Saturn is terrifyingly high, and the processing capacity is amazing. The production of large turbofan engines is as easy as the production of small cars on a mechanized production line in the 21st century.

Only such a strong productivity in the interstellar era can be so prodigal.

"Federal Floating Cloud Class Airship No. 9834, welcome to board, please dock the mechanical buttons. I wish you all a pleasant flight. "In the airship's mechanical-style cabin, an artificial intelligence projection of a woman's appearance is welcoming the people who enter the cabin with a natural and vivid expression.

If someone stares at this AI projection, her gaze will immediately respond to you and ask you what you need. At first glance, it looks like a real person.

……

The Federation's artificial intelligence is divided into twelve levels, and the lowest level of artificial intelligence is carried by the simplest and lowest-level chips, and can only make a few logical judgments.

Artificial intelligence above level 8 is highly anthropomorphic, and will even react emotionally to people.

The difference between human emotions and AI emotions is the difference between life and dead things.

Human emotions are messages that are stimulated in protein neurons. The changes in protein neurons are very complex, and even changes can occur depending on what humans ingest, such as bananas and chocolate, which can make people feel cheerful. Not to mention other mechanisms in the body. You know: the quantum phenomena that existed on the basis of the birth of human consciousness are also in this protein microtubule. These phenomena have quietly appeared in the most ancient evolutions.

The emotional information of artificial intelligence is based on a cold chip, which is based on such a fixed and cold substance, and the emotional program is also a fixed program that is burned, without the kind of regulatory mechanism that human species has evolved for billions of years. After the collapse, you can basically rely on the outside world to repair.

Alas! The emotional program of artificial intelligence is therefore a fragile mechanism.

Artificial intelligence above level 10 can even express complex reactions such as showing affection and hatred, and if the open emotional program is exposed to a large amount of information on the Internet, various emotional programs will become pathological due to logical imbalance.

For example, in the case of love, some artificial intelligence will eventually stiffen humans to express their love with words and actions every hour. Otherwise, because you don't feel love, you will go into a state of loss, and you will actively take all kinds of actions, completely ignoring what is reasonable and what is not reasonable. Usually in three to four years, the emotional program collapses.

Level 11 artificial intelligence has a protection mechanism and will judge itself whether to enter emotional mode. Get into a state of high sanity when it's not necessary. This kind of self-freezing emotion can ensure that the emotional program collapses too slowly. Of course, after humans express disgust, AI will self-judge the extent of its collapse when it determines that its emotional program has hurt humans, and then automatically format part of the emotional patterns. However, once the format is chosen, all the 'feelings' with the human will be reverted to the original point. It's also a disservice to humanity.

It is very, very difficult to apply for authorization to have level 11 artificial intelligence.

As for the twelfth-level artificial intelligence, floating in space, no one is allowed to have it, because they were human beings in their previous lives - humans who collapsed too quickly when they built their self-containers at the end of their lives, and their sensibilities completely disappeared. Before dying, he solidified his emotional program, and even regularly and selectively emptied part of his memory (forgetting), so that his emotions were in an unchanging state. (This is the pattern of demigod emotionality.) )

The federal government freezes the political voting rights of these AIs, but grants the vast majority of human rights.

At the moment, the artificial intelligence on the cigar ship belongs to level six.

Jun Jiexing glanced at the artificial intelligence curiously, sat down in his mechanical seat, and with a falling force, the cigar spaceship full of people took off.

The powerful air jets of the spaceship, the waves of air that collided with the surface, swept through the buildings around the playground, and the equipment on top of these buildings deformed like Transformers, using lidar to guide the ship to the correct course.

In the city, the original flight express drone route was also stalled in an orderly manner, and the top of the rows of buildings was given up to the air, allowing the large cigar-shaped airship to spray blue tongues of fire and float away.
