Norris wasn't joking, as he felt that there was too little to grasp and that a deeper understanding was needed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

To the president's questions, Cologne could not fail to answer. He is only the president's national security adviser, although he has a very high position in the White House staff and can have a direct impact on the president's major decisions, and in some cases, even more than the secretary of state, but all his power comes from the president, and without the president's support, let alone managing major projects, he will not even have access to these things.

Under the president's questioning, Cologne gave an overview of the funding for the Future Warriors project.

It was only at this time that Norris learned that the secret military research project, which had lasted for more than two decades, had burned trillions of dollars. Although only a small part of the funds spent came from the federal budget, and all of them were requested through intelligence systems such as the CIA, and the expenditures were not announced to Congress, all of this money came from the United States, which had an incalculable impact on the national economy of the United States.

It can even be said that the financial crisis that swept the world is related to this project.

Thankfully, after burning so much money, the Future Soldier project has finally made significant progress.

"Is there a viable surname for promotion?"

"Not for the time being, at least until the risk of transformation is reduced, it cannot be fully promoted, and at most a special force of 100 people can be formed. Even so, it still has extraordinary significance. "Cologne knows very well what the president is thinking, after all, he has worked for Norris for several years." According to Professor Jacob, the 'future soldiers' who have completed the transformation have gone beyond the scope of ordinary people, and are far superior to ordinary soldiers in terms of ability. A special forces of 'Future Soldiers' is enough to play a decisive role in small-scale regional conflicts and local wars. Of course, the relevant tactical topics are still being studied, and at the moment they can only play a role in special operations. ”

"It's nothing compared to the investment."

"With a good start, there will be better results." Cologne smiled and said, "Our researchers have solved the main problem, and it will be promoted and applied in a few days." In addition to being used to form new legions, the technology can also be used in other areas. For example, by improving the endurance of the human body, the maneuverability of fighter jets can be greatly improved, thereby changing the mode of air combat. It can also be widely used in tactical command, greatly improving the reaction speed of commanders and personnel and adapting them to more complex future wars. As long as the popularization and application of relevant fields is carried out in an all-round way, the essence of the military will change, and we will continue to dominate the future battlefield. ”

Norris smiled bitterly and said, "How much does it cost to transform a 'Future Soldier'?" ”

"A billion dollars."

"What!?" Norris's eyes widened. One billion dollars, enough to purchase four of the latest fighter jets.

"It's only an experimental phase, and the retrofit costs are definitely very high. After solving the problem of the success rate of transformation, after being popularized on a large scale, the cost of transformation will definitely be reduced. With the maturity of relevant technologies, it will not take a few years, or at most, a decade or so for all military personnel to be transformed according to different operational requirements. ”

"In other words, the 'experimental army' spent more than 100 billion dollars?"

Cologne nodded and said, "Money is a small thing, and the CIA has established a stable source of funding. The main thing is that there is no suitable object for transformation, otherwise it ......"

"Don't you think we're all going to be out of luck if things get out?"

"This ......"

"Tell Turner right away that there has to be some restraint and that this is a special time."

Cologne sighed and nodded in agreement.

"Get on the phone, I'm going to give Jacob orders."

Norris made the decision, and he had no other choice.

The attackers have blasted open the undersea tunnel, and it is possible to storm the experimental base from the tunnel at any time. Although there are many guards in the base, compared to the terrorists who are armed to the teeth, those guards not only do not have sufficient combat capabilities, but also do not have handy weapons and equipment.

In the absence of immediate reinforcements, the only way to keep the experimental base was to use the "Future Warriors" corps.

At this time, in the underground passage of the experimental base, Liu Wei had already figured out the situation, and Mobei Wolf also rushed over with a brigade of more than 100 FOS fighters.

After the alarm sounded, Liu Wei did not take immediate action, but let his men lock the door.

Although it is not possible to know for sure whether the alarm system is connected to the gate, i.e. whether the gate will close after the alarm sounds, it is safer to lock the gate to be on the safe side.

After letting Takeuchi Kotone and a few re-transformation fighters separate to guard the two passages, Liu Wei asked Mobei Wolf to go back and bring the team over.

Whatever the reason for triggering the alarm, exiting the base is not realistic at this point. It is not realistic to enter the base silently according to Liu Wei's vision. There is no other way but to attack. Because the experimental base is very large and the main laboratories are very far apart, a sufficient number of people are needed.

Fortunately, Liu Wei was prepared.

When surveying Manhattan, Liu Wei thought that the Yankees would not build a large number of buildings, because it would be too ostentatious, and would only try to use the underground facilities left over from history and connect them with underground passages, so the experimental base must be divided into many areas.

When arranging the task, Liu Wei made preparations and asked Mobei Wolf's brigade to be responsible for this matter.

"I'll just lead the team in, you don't have to come along."

"I'll ask Miyuki Takahara and the four of them to stay and assist you."

"There's no need to ......"

"Old wolf!"

Mobei Wolf held his mouth and didn't raise the bar with Liu Wei again.

"Be careful in everything, leave a team to defend the retreat, and if you encounter an accident, you will quit, and then we will find a way, we must not fight to the death with the Yankees."

"Don't worry."

"You have to know that each of us is very important, if the Yankees seize the handle, we will not be in trouble, but Lao Li will never forgive us."

As soon as Liu Wei said this, Mobei Wolf became serious.

"I'll leave half a brigade of troops on the other side, and you can mobilize them if necessary."

"Okay, I'll be careful."

Liu Wei nodded, letting Takahara Miyuki and the other four female warriors stay, and returned to Manhattan with only Takeuchi Kotone.

It's not that he doesn't want to stay, but there are still a lot of things he needs to deal with. Besides, there are not many guards at the experimental base of the "Future Soldier", and the combat effectiveness is not very good. Mobei Wolf led a large group of FOS fighters, including more than a dozen re-reformed fighters, which was enough to solve the problem.

By the time Liu Wei and Takeuchi returned to Manhattan Island, it was already dark.

After leaving half of the brigade of fifty FOS fighters on standby on the shore, Liu Wei asked the other half of the FOS fighters of the brigade to return to the command center and obey the dispatch and command of the gray-backed jackal. Instead of rushing back, he and Kotone Takeuchi went straight to the Federal Reserve Bank in Lower Manhattan.

Because it was already dark, there must have been a US military reconnaissance plane in the air, so Liu Wei and Takeuchi Kotone did not drive.

While running on the streets, the two also made full use of the dense buildings. For civilians stranded on the island, it was like a dream to see a man and a woman running at a speed of 40 kilometers per hour, constantly changing directions.

When Liu Wei arrived, Zhou Fen was waiting for him.

"What, you came here?"

"I don't want to be a target for the U.S. military." Liu Wei let out a long breath and said to Takeuchi Qinyin, "You wait for me here to find something to eat." ”

"The Yankees don't have that much guts yet." Zhou Fen smiled and took Liu Wei to the underground vault.

The door of the vault has been cut open, and several FOS fighters are cleaning up the chips from cutting the gate, and the steel door up to half a meter thick has been completely cut and collapsed flat inside the vault.

"When did you open it?"

"Half an hour ago, we didn't even go in."

Liu Wei glanced at Zhou Fen.

"Of course you have to take the lead in such an important matter, don't you?"

Liu Wei shook his head with a smile and entered the vault.

As in the photographs released by the United States authorities, there is a very spacious passage that allows two forklifts to run side by side, flanked by rooms separated by iron doors, each with a nameplate bearing the name of a country or institution, indicating to whom the gold stored in the room belongs.

It's just that the nameplate is full of English abbreviations.

In the room, there are pallets made of aluminum alloy, on which are neatly stacked gold bricks of the same size and style.

At the end of the passage is an electric forklift, the same as the one in a large shopping mall.

Zhou Fen nodded to the two FOS fighters who followed. One soldier drove the forklift over, while the other fastened the chain to the iron door between the forklift and a room.

The iron door was only fastened to the wall with a latch, which was not strong and was easily pulled down by a forklift.

"How much does this piece weigh, fifty pounds?"

"It's not that heavy, it's less than thirty kilograms." Liu Wei picked up a gold brick and threw it to Zhou Fen.

The gold bricks are marked with weight, a thousand ounces, that is, a little more than twenty-eight kilograms.

"That's not great, at the current price of gold, it's more than a million dollars."

Liu Wei smiled, looked at it carefully, and said, "There are about a hundred tons in this room, so let's start here." ”

Zhou Fen put down the gold bricks and whistled at his men outside, telling them to get ready to work.

When leaving, Liu Wei raised his mouth and looked at the nameplate on the door beam.

"ph", which country is this?

Liu Wei only knows that "ph" means pH in chemistry.

As the two walked inside, more than a dozen FOS fighters began to carry the gold bricks, while another group of FOS fighters were busy laying the liquid pipeline.

The special solvent used to dissolve the gold was on that LNG freighter.

The dissolution is not carried out in the vault, but in the stormwater drain. To this end, in the past few hours, several of Zhou Fen's subordinates have also coated the inner walls of the pipes with anti-corrosion materials. After the gold bricks are placed in the pipe, a solvent is injected and the solvent that dissolves the gold flows down the pipe.

Compared with transporting tens of thousands of tons of gold, this method is not only more hidden, but also much less troublesome.
