Chapter 606, Nepeta Strategy
The problems within the Aozhua Star Region are easier to solve.
After all, it is separated from the Iron Armor Base Camp of the Royal Girl Star Region by a thorn, and the impact it has suffered in the past hundred years is not as great as that of the thorn.
The more important point is that when the Iron Armor put down its bottom line, the Aozhua Star Region was already in the hands of the Alliance, and the largest-scale corruption spread, and the Aozhua planets did not "enjoy" it.
On the contrary, after the Alliance received intelligence, it immediately established an "Insect Pest Control Office" in each planet.
The Alliance sent a commissioner to directly lead, and the local governments of each planet need to fully cooperate with the work of the "Insect Pest Control Office", and even add it to the core assessment indicators. Those who do well will all have credit, and they can be promoted in rank along the line, and even accumulate merits to be promoted in the future; those who do not do well and make trouble will be dismissed and never tolerated.
Rewards and punishments are secondary, and more importantly, publicity work must also be done well.
The first thing that the commissioners sent from the central alliance to the local areas have to do is often to publicize the threat of insect pests to the local ruling class and expose how terrible the super disaster of the universe level that will cause inhumane suffering caused by Iron Armor is.
Multi-pronged approach!
First let people know that this thing is a big disaster that will destroy the world. The swarm devours the world, and no one can escape. This is the combination of the life and death of the tribe and the life and death of the individual.
Then use the rewards and punishments within the alliance system to manage daily work and ensure that things can be implemented in place. It cannot be based on righteousness alone, otherwise, the disaster will not come in an instant, and there will always be people who feel that it is none of their business for the time being and fool around.
And these solve the problem of motivation.
If there are still people who are unmotivated and drag their feet, they are either stupid or bad. The so-called bad means that you must first suspect that you have been infected, and then directly eliminate them after confirmation; if you are not bad, then you are stupid, and you will not be eliminated, but you will also be kicked out of the team.
After all, when you really get things done in the future, you still rely on the mobilization ability and management level of the entire society.
Some worlds are doing quite well; some worlds are already at the level of feudal society mixed with slave society, and with the chaotic capital mixed in... it's a mess. It's a bit unrealistic to expect them to accomplish great things and do a good job of controlling the spread of pest infection.
At this time, the alliance can't care about being gentle. The alliance system is forcibly promoted. Under the premise of military guarantee and a very strong survival crisis, objectively speaking, it has become a good time to promote the alliance system.
From a backward society of semi-feudalism and semi-capitalism, running into the era of the alliance system.
In recent times, those corrupt cults have been acting vigorously. Many people have disappeared, some natural ecological environments have changed rapidly, cult organizations are armed, and resist official encirclement and suppression. Even some planets have directly appeared large-scale insect swarms. In the bottom of the nest, in the slums, in the wilderness, even hatching pools have been found!
Unrest is inevitable in all worlds of the Proud Claw Star Region.
But under the many means of the alliance, the fully mobilized local forces of the planets can suppress the problems on their own in most cases.
On planets with better conditions, the focus is on anti-cult work, with the legal department as the core and the military as the auxiliary. The model is more similar to the "war on terror".
On some planets with worse conditions, if a war breaks out, the defense forces can also eliminate the enemy.
To put it bluntly, the most terrifying weapon of the Zerg is still the number, but they have not had time to plunder enough biomass and produce enough Zerg/parasite infected people on any planet in the Proud Claw Star Region. Before the number rises, as long as the authorities pay enough attention and respond with all their strength, the threat of insect pests can be controlled.
The situation in the entire Proud Claw Star Region can be said to be improving in chaos.
The situation in the Jingjie Star Region next door is completely different.
The situation on Heshan Star, which connects Proud Claw and Jingjie and is on the Jingjie side, is not bad. It may be because the world is a fortress world, mainly military towns, and the number of civilians is not large, and the basic social ecology is centered around supporting the lives of soldiers and military needs, and civilians are also managed militarized measures. In this environment, the spread of the pest cult was not strong, and the number of infected people was not large.
When the entire planet was taken down by the main force of the alliance, a small number of problems were quickly solved.
The fact that Iron Armor spread pests was not without benefits.
Thinking of this in a happy way, this greatly reduced the human forces in the Iron Armor occupied area and their loyalty to Iron Armor, so that the alliance's recovery of these worlds became much smoother.
On Heshan Star, it was not obvious. After all, the pest was not serious. Although the outer orbital defense was dismantled by the alliance with powerful force, under the deterrence of orbital bombing and the army's end, the resistance was defeated and turned to secret resistance, and the rest surrendered on a large scale.
The remaining resistance did not believe the alliance's propaganda and thought it was a lie; the surrendered actually murmured, was it a lie to us?
However, as more and more news from the wider world in the Jingjie star field spread through various means, the credibility increased, the alliance's rule and management became smoother, and the reconstruction of the planet as a fortress world also became smoother with the cooperation of the local surrenderers.
Of course, these are basically the work of the officers and political commissars who stayed in the local area.
The main force of the alliance could not stay in Heshan Star for too long.
After conquering Heshan, the main fleet of the alliance left and continued to advance into the depths of the Jingjie star field.
In the future world, there will be no long-term military control and stable social state like Heshan Star. The problem of insect pests and corruption is quite serious in Gu Hang's opinion.
However, most worlds are not yet at the point of extinction.
The alliance will gradually start to exert its strength and do things in these worlds.
The branch fleets dispersed from the main fleet can often reach cooperation with local forces.
These worlds also have the desire to save themselves.
Under cooperation, the first step is to eliminate the influence of Iron Armor on this planet.
Kill and capture the Iron Armor spokesperson in the local world. That may be a unit of the Royal Princess Corps, or it may be an administrative official inserted into the local government, or it may be someone in the local government who has a close relationship with Iron Armor.
At the same time, establish "Pest Control Offices" on various planets.
This step is actually done in the Aozhua Star Field.
But in fact, there is a big difference.
The most obvious point is that many of the worlds in the Jingjie Star Domain can no longer solve their internal problems by relying solely on their own strength.
The insect swarms are howling in the wild, attacking human society from time to time; the insect cults in human society have corrupted all aspects of society.
In fact, compared with the corruption of the upper and ruling classes of society, what is more terrifying is the large-scale corruption of the grassroots.
Although the former is troublesome, it is a large target, easy to identify, and easy to clean up. After it is done, just replace the people you need and it's done.
But if the grassroots are corrupted on a large scale, it will be a big trouble.
To put it bluntly, no matter what policies are formulated or what plans are made, they need to be implemented and implemented by grassroots management agencies. If the grassroots collapses, it will be a big egg.
The alliance is not unable to solve it. They can distinguish all the high-level, middle-level, and grassroots personnel; they can even isolate an entire area and directly carry out military control, which is relatively rough but effective.
The Alliance has always been trying to avoid this situation, but in the Jingjie Star Region, it is obviously not possible.
For serious cases, drastic measures must be taken.
Of course, this will greatly drag down and disperse the Alliance's strength.
This also makes the Alliance's staff busy.
The Alliance cannot really fight in hundreds of worlds one by one, and then divide the troops to solve the local problems of the planets one by one. That is unrealistic, and even if it can be done, the Alliance will probably be dragged in the Jingjie Star Region for many years.
That is definitely not possible.
But the good thing is that it takes little effort to capture the planet. When the Alliance's fleet arrives at a place, it is to welcome the king's army with food and drink. Even some planets that are not on the Alliance's offensive route are sending signals in a hurry, asking when the Alliance will arrive? We surrender, and quickly send troops to help us solve the pest problem!
As for the division of troops, it is indeed necessary to divide them.
But it cannot be divided equally.
This is the work of the Alliance's staff. They need to distinguish which planets are in urgent need of a large amount of support and which are not so urgent and do not need to invest too much troops according to the fragmentary information collected from below.
For those places where the situation is relatively good, the next group army of the Alliance Army will be almost enough.
One million troops, plus some officials urgently recruited from the Alliance mainland, constitute the main force of the "Insect Control Office".
The million Alliance Army can play the role of a stabilizing force, at least to keep a place safe; with this as the core, try to purify and rebuild the local grassroots management capabilities, and draw strength from the local area as much as possible, develop new troops and management personnel, and expand the management area.
As for any local forces that are blind and go against them, they will be destroyed. If the Alliance troops of a group army are not enough, more will be transferred immediately.
However, if this kind of situation occurs, the staff who made the judgment in front will be scolded, and even have to take responsibility and be demoted.
Because analyzing the degree of cooperation of local forces is also one of their important tasks.
In general, the Alliance has captured more than 200 worlds in the four months since entering the Jingjie Star Region, accounting for about half of the entire star region.
These worlds with relatively good conditions account for about one-third of them.
The remaining two-thirds are all places with relatively bad conditions and very bad conditions.
The upper and lower levels have almost completely collapsed, which requires the Alliance to invest a lot of manpower to carry out comprehensive reconstruction. But this is considered good, it is nothing more than following the model of the "Insect Control Office" and further increasing the stakes. Completely abandon the reliance and fantasy on local forces and start all over again.
The initial work will be difficult and the investment will be huge, but after all, there is the great cause of "saving the world". After the normal civilians and scattered local troops are organized, they will be able to quickly accept the rule of the Alliance and actively participate in the cause of saving the world.
This is relatively good;
Another bad situation is that the local forces are very loyal to Iron Armor, or the local forces have a particularly strong tendency to be independent, and the rulers are short-sighted and selfish... No matter what the reason, they are unwilling to cooperate with the alliance.
The corruption of insects and the number of insect swarms in these places may still be within the controllable range, but the trouble is that after the alliance falls, it will not only have to deal with real insects, but also insects among humans.
The more irritable generals proposed some more radical plans: treat all these opposing forces and insects as enemies and pull them together!
However, these ideas were rejected by Gu Hang.
Kindness and mercy are not the key, but the main thing is that there are too many planets like this, which is really a drag on the power of the alliance.
Precious troops should not be used in these places at all.
The next group army, or even not, will drop a few observation posts and then watch the changes in the situation of the whole world silently.
If the local forces can solve the problem by themselves, it must be very good and trouble-free, even if they do not accept the rule of the alliance, it doesn't matter. Anyway, a single world does not have the strength to run to the star sea and confront the alliance, so just let them stay in the local world and wait until the alliance is free to solve it.
This is an internal problem of the tribe.
If they can't hold on, the ambassadors of the alliance will step up their contacts and intervention. In the final analysis, it comes down to one question: "Are you still stubborn?"
If they are not stubborn, then fine, follow the previous mature experience; if they are stubborn, then they can't just watch others perish, they have to evaluate the situation and send a large army to solve the problems of this planet, and at the same time eliminate these local forces that are not sure whether they are stupid or bad, or stupid and bad.
After classifying the problems on these planets, the most valuable and main forces of the alliance can be invested in about thirty worlds with extremely serious problems.
Those planets have become hell on earth.
The population is not extinct, but at least it has been lost on a large scale; the evil followers infected with parasites have occupied the mainstream position in society; the real insect swarms they have cultivated are huge.
The simple "insect control" plan is no longer enough to save the whole world. On the planet, the number of enemies to be faced may be calculated in hundreds of millions or even billions.
In such a world, it is undoubtedly necessary to invest heavily and invest in a large army.
A large number of land forces, space warriors, and a few warships in orbit for ground support...all that is necessary must be there, and we must deal with it with the mentality of fighting an apocalyptic-level war, only then can the problem be solved.
