004 Unreasonable tasks
"Hum what" Camillo laughed angrily and threw the information in his hand on the small table in front of him.
Signaw, who was sitting next to him, picked it up and read it carefully.
At this moment, the two were sitting on the helicopter heading to the Lushi Unit 108 station.
"The enemy stronghold is located in the World Realm, and the 62nd manages the border World Realm.
According to the introduction of the World Realm, the World Realm is very barren, most of the area is the Gobi, the climate is dry and harsh, sparsely populated, and it deviates from the main prosperous Dimensional Realm, so the Authority does not pay much attention here. As a result, the world became the main hiding place for pirates, criminals, and terrorist organizations.
According to the informant's report, in the area of 138.0-139.8 east longitude and 34.8-36.2 north latitude, illegal quality weapons research centers and manufacturing plants have been established
Enemy strength intelligence
troop allocation; Unknown
firepower configuration; It is reported to be strong
Magus has the number, level, and type; The level type is unknown, but there are many of them. ”
Reading this, even Signo unconsciously began to frown, especially when he saw the few lines of Kamiyu's handwritten words marked with a few big question marks in the blank space under the report, his brows were almost twisted together.
That's what Camillo wrote
Base material supply cycle?
How is the water supply at the base?
Where is the base located and the terrain?
What is the transportation path of the base materials?
These key issues are not mentioned in the report.
For example, the words of defense distribution were crossed out by Kamiyu himself, and even the number of firepower and personnel of the opponent is unknown, let alone this problem.
"Seeing this information, I suddenly felt that it was a miracle that the Ground Headquarters of the Space-Time Administration had been able to mix up to this day and not collapse yet!" Signo laughed too, and the laughter was full of contempt.
"It can't be said that some of the top brass of the ground headquarters, although rotten, narrow-minded and arrogant, are not stupid, and it is clear that the top brass of the radical faction informed the intelligence chief of this deliberately." Kamiyu replied with his right hand under his mouth, biting the knuckle of his index finger.
"So they are not afraid of being blamed by others when they do this? Once we are defeated, we can put the blame entirely on them with this information in our hands, and it is only themselves who will lose their reputation the most. ”
"These old foxes wouldn't do such an obvious thing to grab their tails!" Kamiyu said with some indignation
"Just look at this!" He pulled out another document and handed it to Signor
"The subordinate unit they gave for this operation, the 108 Lu Shi Unit, has a total number of 960 people, excluding logistics, civilian, and technical personnel, and 672 actual combat personnel. (Considering that it is a magical civilization, the logistics ratio is reduced to 30%, and the logistics ratio of the US Army is 49%)
In addition, there is an additional squadron of air combat magicians and 1 squadron of artillery magicians, a total of 196 people, including 96 air combat magicians and 100 shelling magicians.
This is in addition to the 200 troops stationed at the local monitoring points that can be mobilized.
The total number of troops reached 1,356 people, and the actual combat personnel were 1,008. ”
"The radicals in the ground headquarters would be so generous?" Signo was a little surprised
"How is it possible, this kind of one brigade is a little more, but far less than two brigades, what is such an ambiguous combat formation? This must have been calculated by them, the troops are just enough to barely pull out the opponent's base, but they will inevitably suffer serious losses, in the absence of detailed intelligence support, good luck is a miserable victory, bad luck is a defeat for both sides. In short, it will not allow us to be completely defeated. Such a result is enough for them to easily guide public opinion to attack. ”
Speaking of which, Kamiyu remembered what had happened after the promotion ceremony a day earlier and couldn't help but fall into deep thought
The promotion ceremony went smoothly, and the troublemakers that Admiral Klim and Knight Karim had said did not appear.
When Marshal Largo's Honorary Marshal placed a redbud flower on Camillo's collar, the audience burst into applause.
However, just after the ceremony, a discordant voice suddenly sounded.
"Your Excellency Halowin became a brigadier general at a young age, hehehe, a brigadier general who is less than 12 years old, this luck is really envious of everyone!" A middle-aged man dressed in the uniform of a major general of the ground headquarters walked out.
[Is it finally here?] 】
There is a hidden edge in the words of this major general, which means that Camillo became a brigadier general at such a young age, and there is a lot of luck involved, and many people are skeptical and dissatisfied with his ability.
Although he knew in his heart that the other party was not good, but the other party was a superior, Kamiyu had to salute him, and then asked with a playful smile
"So, do you think so too?"
At this time, Kamiyu will not be stupid to refute directly, his young age is a fact, and if he refutes directly, it will only be regarded as a childish performance in the eyes of others, so that he can confirm what the other party is pointing to, and he and the Magic Wizarding Department will also become the laughing stock of the Authority.
"I've always believed that Lord Hallowyn was able to become a brigadier general at a young age by virtue of his own strength."
The major general was slightly surprised by Kami's response. After all, no matter how talented he is, he is just a child under the age of 12, and he was suspected of having a problem with his ability and did not immediately strive for it, so that his calculations on his side failed.
"But," the Major General said
"People are blind believers, aren't they? Their suspicion of Lord Halowyn is also suspicion of the Authority, which is not good! ”
[Old fox, I'm just a brigadier general of a scientific army who is not very exposed, and I say it as if the whole world knows me, and my acting skills are really terrible. 】
Kamiyu amused as he watched as he performed by himself, as if he were watching a monkey in a zoo.
"yes!" Another voice came from the other side, and another brigadier general from the ground headquarters came to his side and began to comply.
"Once the people and the members of the low-level Authority begin to feel shaken by the prestige of the Authority, then the peaceful world that the Authority has painstakingly maintained for so many years will be burned, and everyone will not forget that chaotic era!"
Kamiyu looked at the brigadier general carefully, and then vomited in his heart
[Seeing that you are only forty or fifty years old, at least you have not been born ten years after the end of the chaotic era! It's like a hero who fought bloodily back then, and I'm the demon king who is about to destroy the world in words? Is it fulfilling to bully a child in a grade who can be your grandchild? 】
"You two are talking too much!" A majestic voice sounded behind him, and Marshal Largo, who had a kind face, glared angrily at the two generals at this moment. Admiral Klim and Lieutenant General Brewster, the Minister of Magiology (acting), followed.
"Don't you feel ashamed to count a child who can be your grandson like this?"
"I'm so sorry!" Although they belonged to different departments, Marshal Largo had to be admired by the two of them, both in terms of position and prestige.
"As you say, our actions are indeed insulting to the elders. However, Lord Marshal, although he is still young, he was already a brigadier general who could represent the image of the Authority at that moment not long ago, so we had to be reminded. ”
Marshal Largo was silent, he had already proposed, and the two of them had also vaguely reminded him just now that Camillo was no longer an ordinary child, and that the rank of general was put on for him by you just now.
"Although His Excellency Halowin is subordinate to the scientific army with low exposure, his popularity among the people is not low, you must know that the people of Lu Dao always like novelty, and he became a brigadier general before he was 12 years old, and he will unconsciously attract the attention of the people no matter what. While curious, the public will doubt the system and ability of the Authority! ”
What the two said was true, and it was really irrefutable.
[Alas~~ It seems that this time I have to bite the bullet, and it's really a shame that they are so painstaking! 】
Camillo sighed inwardly and spoke.
"I see, anyway, you mean that I have to show that I have to show that I have to convince others, right?"
"Exactly!"
"How?"
"Recently, the intelligence department received a report from an informant that a base for the research and production of high-quality weapons had been discovered in the 62nd World Realm, and the intelligence has been confirmed, and it has also been confirmed that the base is extremely well defended. So we hope "
"Wait!" Kamiyu's immediate boss, Lieutenant General Brewster, the Minister of Magic, spoke.
"Kamiyu is from the Science Army, not from the Tactical Strategy Department, is your request too much!"
"Lord Brewster! You know, Lord Halowyn's name is indeed well-known in your scientific community, but it is too unfamiliar to the public. If it were for His Excellency Halowyn to develop a new invention or a new scholarship, we would not have had so much time to wait for years, so that the people could understand it faster and better. ”
"Isn't it okay to arrange a show of combat skills?"
"It's a pity, we need to let the people know that we have the ability to protect their lives, and fighting alone is just a puppet's bravery, even if it is an S-level magician, can it still defeat three squadrons of magicians head-on?"
[If you can't beat it, can't you run away? Adding two squadrons may not be able to keep the S-class magicians who are bent on escaping. Although I vomited like this in my heart, I could only accept it.
"Understood, before taking on this task, I have conditions!"
Kamiyu understands that the other party is scheming and has no way out, so it is better to simply do it.
"Please!"
"I want to bring a few colleagues with me, whether you want to know if Lu Dao is still familiar with someone to make it easy to call, or if you don't even agree to such a small request!"
After reaching an agreement, Camillo followed Marshal Largo and Lieutenant General Brewster to a small lounge.
"I really didn't expect it to be like this." Marshal Largo sighed
"In the past, partners who were born and died together for the sake of common ideals are now like fire and water."
"Your Excellency the Marshal"
"Just call me grandpa in private." Marshal Largo was now a kind old man again
"I'm really old, and I'm happy to have the opportunity to chat with young people!"
Hearing Marshal Largo's words, Camillo smiled sincerely.
"Understood, Grandpa Largo."
Camillo's answer made Largo laugh happily.
"Hehehehe, the future is for young people, we have long understood this, but they are"
"Them?" Kamiyu was curious about what Largo had mentioned several times.
"In the past, in order to quell that chaotic era, the other three people who worked with me, Leoni, and Mijet to establish the Temporal Authority."
"Huh?" It was the first time Camillo had heard of such a secret.
"Now they are also the heads of the Supreme Council of the Ground Headquarters, their bodies have long since died, leaving only their brains but still commanding the entire Ground Headquarters."
"Then the Commander-in-Chief of the Ground Headquarters"
"They are also behind them, but they are actually just a group of stubborn and radical people, always thinking that they are right, and only they can lead the Authority to maintain stability and peace between dimensions. As everyone knows, this kind of imposed justice can sometimes turn into real evil! The officers who belong to their faction in the ground headquarters are all called radicals by our General Directorate of Dimensions. Fortunately, there is still a large number of non-radical officers. ”
[I see. 】
"Now that you are an associate professor of the Department of Magic, then you also have the right to know about the Dao, in addition to the well-known side of the Department of Magic, the Department of Magic also has the right to supervise the Ground Headquarters, mainly to prevent the Ground Headquarters from stray too far from the path. That's why they're going to make things so hard for you. ”
Marshal Largo spoke as he left
"If you need anything, just ask, whether it's equipment or people, I'll do it for you."
"People's thinking is constantly changing with the changes of the times, and each generation has its own ideas, and those who cannot accept the changes of the times and try to forcibly reverse them can only be crushed by the torrent of history. The ideas of the three old men of the Supreme Council have fallen behind the times, and I wonder when the Tao will be abandoned by the times? As Kamiyu recalled that passage, he muttered unconsciously, and then chuckled again
"Hmph, what's the point of someone trying to want eternal life by all means? Ideas cannot progress with it, and in the end it will only lead to a sad end. ”
"Kamiyu, what are you thinking? A man talks to himself. Signo, who was on the side, couldn't help but ask.
"Ah~~ I'm sorry, I'm distracted." Kamiyu disguised himself as he took the cup of coffee that had been oversweetened and almost mushy and drank it down, while Signo on the side suddenly felt his stomach start to surge.
"I'm so sorry to involve you." Kamiyu abruptly apologized to Signo
"It's okay, I volunteered. Besides, do you have any other candidates? Signo smiled slightly
After hearing Kamiyo's conversation with Karim outside the doors of the Church of the Holy King, Signor kept an eye on what was happening during the promotion ceremony. Later, in the venue, Camiyu heard the agreement between Kamiyu and the ground headquarters clearly, so after meeting up with Kamiyu, she offered to accompany Kamiyu.
At the instigation of the wind and the other members of the Knights of the Storm, Camillo had no choice but to agree, and after finding Marshal Largo's help, he arranged for Signo to be an empty cao.
In fact, there are really not many candidates for Kamiyu, although Fit and Naye are very strong, but he doesn't want to involve them. This operation is already a small war, and those involved will inevitably have blood on their hands, and Kamiyu believes that the sunshine, the warm and joyful smile is the best fit for Fit and Naye, and it is too early for them to see the cruel side of the Authority.
And Signor and the members of the Knights of the Wind and Cloud have rich experience in battle formations, and there is no resistance to killing people on the battlefield, and even Camillo himself has never been on the battlefield, so it is good to have an experienced person to enlighten him, which is another reason why Camillo will agree to Signo.
"Is it okay to leave the Tempest?"
"It's not like we'll never see each other again, and besides, Storm is usually with Naye and Fett, and Weta is protecting them, so it's no problem to miss me for the time being."
Kamiyu put the information away, then looked at the time
"Now there is still more than 1 hour before arriving at Lushi Unit 108, so I'll rest for a while now." As he spoke, Kamiyu closed his eyes and recuperated.
"By the way, Signor should also pay attention to rest! We'll be busy when we get there. ”
After a few moments, Signor, who had been watching Kamiyu's sleeping face, slowly reached out to Kamiyu's face, and after hesitating for a few moments, his slightly trembling fingers finally touched the delicate skin.
At this moment, Kamiyu suddenly spoke again in a somewhat embarrassed tone.
"Also, that Xie Lu Xie, Xignau!"
The sudden speech startled Signo, and he quickly withdrew his hand, holding his hands tightly with each other, hiding the trembling caused by the fright, but his face turned red in an instant could not be stopped.
After a long time, after noticing that Kamiyu had not opened her eyes, Signo finally calmed down, but the words of thanks, which had not been noticed by fright, echoed in her heart, and a feeling that she had never experienced before rose in her chest, and although she did not know how to describe it, she felt that she seemed to like it
"Wake up! Kamiyu, we're almost there. Camillo was woken up by Signo
"Hmm" Kamiyu, who was confused, only felt a burst of softness and warmth under his head, and subconsciously touched it lightly with his hand
[The slippery one seems to be a nylon fiber product, but what is this soft and warm one? Then he gently squeezed it with his hand.
"Ah~~" Signor's face was slightly red and he moaned softly.
"That," he reminded, slurring
It took him a while to come to his senses, and it took him a while to realize that he was already on Signo's lap at some point.
"That, that, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, and Xie Luxie," and then Kamiyu blushed and said incoherently to Signor.
"Nothing, nothing"
Just like that, silence fell in the cabin, and a slightly awkward atmosphere spread between the two.
Fortunately, it didn't last long
Kamiyu, who had just gotten off the helicopter, noticed that an unexpected figure had appeared in front of him.
Dressed in a blue and white air uniform, he was covered in explosive muscles, and his rough and resolute face was matched with a tuft of golden dull hair.
When he saw Kamiyu, he immediately stood up and said after giving a military salute that could be called an exemplary military salute of the Authority.
"Your Excellency, Alex. Louis. Armstrong is ordered to report to you! ”
-----------------
Lushi Unit 108, abbreviated as "GAS-B108" in English. Battalion means "brigade".
The brigade is equivalent to a regiment, but because it is a local garrison in the Meadshi realm, the staffing is slightly smaller.
David. David Brewster (1781-1868)
Physicist, elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1815 and awarded the Randford Medal in 1819. He is mainly engaged in optical research. In 1812, it was discovered that when the tangent of the angle of incidence is equal to the relative refractive index of the medium, the reflected light will be linearly polarized (now known as Bruster's law)
