Ogas of the Russian Empire is capable of collecting information about the country and some allies, and it can collect information from the Foreign Intelligence Agency, but it is probably a reconnaissance satellite rather than an area where it can legally collect card usage records, life patterns, CCTV records, etc. Information gathering centered on wiretapping and wiretapping is inevitably inferior.
Therefore, there are cases where Ogas cannot immediately filter out foreign entrants who are impure. AI is not an all-around key, it is just a system that grows in proportion to the information it has acquired, so it was not possible to filter out all the lonely wolf-type terrorists in advance.
Especially given the fact that the Confederation of Independent States is a gathering of the world’s poorest countries—although the Russian Empire is heavily responsible for bringing down its rivals from the ground up—and a land full of ongoing civil wars and religious extremism of all kinds. Since there are quite a few cases where the government itself is a theocratic country, there could be no expectation that it will act rationally, so these people were subject to special alert.
Among the 13 countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States, the countries that can be said to have a national shape within common sense are the Zhou Empire, a tyrannical monarchy ruled by the Zh?ge family, and the self-proclaimed China, a small country that claims to be the successor of the Republic of China. There are only two countries, the Republic of Korea and the Republic of Taqing Shandong.
Naturally, except for citizens of these two countries, in principle, they cannot even apply for entry to Russia. Because there is no diplomatic relationship.
Therefore, if there is a terrorist threat, tracking these lines is the number one priority, but there are other possibilities.
African conflict.
The African Confederation officially claims the entire continent of Africa from north to south and east to west as its territory. However, there are places where the power of the African Federation does not reach or resists.
It is commonly referred to as the Arab region, with Egypt at the forefront.
Egypt was once forcibly annexed by the African Confederation, but the Arabs refused to be ruled by blacks and turned to the Arabian Kingdom for help.
And the Arabian Kingdom funded through the back hole, and after defeating the African Federation forces in Egypt after a battle with the African Federation, they declared independence.
All sorts of internal problems immediately erupted, preventing the African Federation from further offensive and eventually signing an armistice, but legally, the African Federation remains the ruler of Egypt.
In any case, there were some serious discussions about a national alliance with Arabia, the same Arab country, but the problem was that Russia was blocking the relationship between the two.
The Russian Empire is in good hands and has no plans to even give out the territory where the Suez Canal is located, so their annexation discussion ended with only words. Instead, the Arabs fled to Egypt, where Egypt continued its lonely battle against the African Confederation. After that, even Arabia declared that it would intervene in case of emergency, but it was stingy in actual support.
On the other hand, the African Federation is the country with the largest number of Jews in the world. Many of the Jews expelled from Europe in anti-Semitic sentiment flowed there, at least in the millions.
And wealth was concentrated in the areas they controlled, and eventually, as in most capitalist countries, there was a division of the class.
The lower class, made up of blacks and Arabs, had one thing in common, most of which was that they were Muslims.
Then there was the middle class, which was black but made up of Christians like the Eastern Orthodox Church, and at the top of the pyramid were the Jews.
This was the fundamental reason for the feud between the Arabs and the African Federation, and it was also the reason the Arabs left the Exodus for Egypt.
And the African Federation received strong support from the United States thanks to the strength of Jewish lobbying forces in the United States. So, of course, the United States did not recognize Egypt. Of course, he didn’t really provide any aid to the African Federation, which he thought was sufficient.
In the end, Egypt had no choice but to cling to Russia, which provided unofficial support to keep Egypt alive. Even that, it officially placed Egypt in the ambiguous position of a special status state, but did not officially recognize it.
In any case, Egypt and the African Confederation were blood-blooded relations, and Egypt and the African Confederation, which could not tolerate it, wanted to recover the whole of North Africa in the long run, killing each other and killing each other in various parts of the world.
And this situation was not without possibility of being an extension of it.
“My head hurts…”
Prior to departure, Major Bagration, who had been rummaging through the data storage of Ogas within the authority granted to her, disconnected.
She removed the helmet and gloves and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
Basically, there is a hidden trap in a sudden special. Of course, in this case, the trap seemed too obvious.
The absurd demand to cooperate with local security personnel only on Mars, the vast expanse of Mars, and to recover nuclear material before it starts working without being discovered as much as possible. Although nominally there should not be a situation where a large-scale military force would be deployed to attract the attention of the United States and other countries and cause doubts about Russia’s leadership, in reality, whether it explodes on Mars or not, there will be no harm at the level of the Russian Empire, and the source of cesium chloride Considering that Russia is something that crosses borders legally anyway, so it can be covered up enough, the actual order from the top was to go and come back dead or make a big failure to create an excuse to put an end to her.
“Yeah, let’s go.”
A command is a command.
***
I lay on the bed and tossed and received a coin. There was a hologram of Ogas, a girl with gray hair and yellow and red odd eyes, full of playfulness and a cute impression.
“Inferences show that terrorism is likely to happen sooner or later. From the poles of Mars, even from the North Pole.”
“It’s polar.”
Ogas has a light mouth in front of me. The reason is simple.
Ogas knows that I am the same person as Mikhail Nikolaevich Kim. And, of course, in my previous life, I had the authority to handle all the secrets of the Russian Empire.
Therefore, it is not a problem for Ogas to hand over all the information he has to me. Furthermore, he gives me information that may be relevant to me first, even if I did not ask him.
“There is a rough estimate of the potential for terrorism. However, this information was not communicated to field personnel.”
“What are you talking about? Isn’t that data chosen for that?”
“you’re right. However, permission to treat the matter as confidential has not been issued to the field commander.”
“why?”
“It’s a faction issue. Currently, the Vostok faction, the main military faction, is in a very urgent situation. Even though he came from a duke family, there is a reason why people from a fringe faction like Lieutenant Colonel Bagration were promoted to that position at such a high speed.”
“It’s a Vostok faction, is it a faction in the military made up of those from the Vostok Military Academy?”
“That’s right. There is currently no specific name for the faction that opposes it, so if I had to name it, it would be the anti-Vostok faction.”
“It’s a nostalgic sound.”
I remembered a few people who had been killed or committed suicide before.
“The faction made up of officers who have not graduated from the Vostok Military Academy in any way, so far, the former has almost overwhelmingly won, but Lieutenant General Semen, the dominant force in the anti-Vostok faction, holds a significant stake. And the moment you use it, at least the Minister of Defense must take off his clothes.”
“Is it corruption?”
“It is quite large.”
“Why were you shut up?”
“I had no authority to speak out, and the humans above my reporting chain listened to me and demanded a steady report on it, and at the same time ordered it to be covered up. In their paintings, it was not yet the time for the Vostok faction to fall.”
“Or maybe there was a problem on the other side.”
I nodded, remembering the faces of my grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Perhaps it is related to the succession scheme, since the activity of the human brain could not be confirmed even with Ogas, so it was only a guess as to what the intention was to do this.
However, it is possible to infer the human psychology sitting on the top of the heads of the two factions in many ways.
“From the Russian perspective, Mars is a good thing if it is not there, and even if it tries to exercise administrative power, it is too far away, so it is difficult to intervene easily even if it actually creates its own kingdom. Above all, it is a land that continues to suck up investment costs. Although it is full of potential, there are all sorts of obstacles, and above all, it is the United States, not Russia, who ambitiously pushed ahead with the exploration of Mars. Unless it’s America, it’s going to be hit.”
And cesium chloride powder is enough to remove it. The flag is not on the cesium capsule, and even if it is, it is obvious that it will be taken off. At the very least, you have to go to a hospital equipped with medical devices that use cesium, and since there is only one such hospital in Mars – other places use different types – it’s a bit difficult, but it’s not impossible to get it on Mars. easy. It’s a theft case. If Russia deliberately conceals it, there is no way for other countries to know.
“So, there must be an option to take a step back and use it for power struggles, and take a step back and watch it.”
It is no different than when we remotely detonated all nuclear weapons deployed in Asian countries such as China and Japan in the past. It’s the United States that’s f*cked up, and it’s a good thing politically if the remorse of the genocide is alleviated. Unlike the time when I had to even press the nuclear blast button myself, now it’s enough to just keep your mouth shut.
“I thought so too. The Russian Empire has no motivation to stop this terrorism. Father, please move.”
“……”
“My system of ethical principles is solid. If the glaciers on Mars are contaminated, a huge number of civilians will die from internal exposure, which is an issue I cannot ignore. It’s impossible, and with the secrecy order stating that it cannot be disclosed to any person without a certain level of security clearance, the only person I can speak to is my father who can stop it.”
“Will you help me?”
“To the extent that it circumvents my core protocol, I will do my best. We are currently sending a few sentinel drones to the Arctic, and we will hand over command to my father.”
“It’s a sentinel, it’s hot, but do you really need to mobilize a sentinel? It would be better to redeploy the drone swarm.”
The sentinel drone equipped with a quadrupedal UGV, active defense system and a multi-purpose missile launcher was the highest level of unmanned ground firepower that Ogas could mobilize on Mars where unmanned tanks did not exist. But against a few terrorists, it was an obvious overfire.
What is more useful to subdue a terrorist is a sniper rather than a tank. But there must have been a reason why Ogas insisted on mobilizing them.
“It is likely that it will not end with just killing a few terrorists, and I cannot intervene in customs procedures for the United States Space Center. We have to be prepared.”
