Chapter 388: Bright New Equipment for the Moldy Country
Time was passing minute by minute, and James and the others had been waiting at the elevator door for more than three hours, but there was still no movement.
"Colonel, let's eat something first."
"No...... Eat first, I'll smoke a cigarette ......."
Originally, James wanted to refuse, but thought that he would need physical strength to deal with the next challenges later, so he nodded and agreed.
Military rations have never been synonymous with deliciousness, they are designed to be stored for long periods of time and provide heat to the body quickly.
However, after smoking a cigarette, James did feel very hungry, and after eating the last soybean in the can, he felt a little more calorie in his body.
"Those guys don't know if they're hungry on the road......"
After James finished eating, he sat at the elevator door and smoked half a pack of cigarettes, seeing that time was completely hopeless, he patted the dust on his body and stood up and said, "Let's go back and make every effort to modify the individual nuclear weapons launch system...... For the next wave of attacks, I'll personally lead the team! ”
……
This time the monster tide broke out, and the country was also facing great danger, although the country did not disband the National Guard, but the contradiction of the vast land and sparse population was difficult to solve.
The only advantage is that the proportion of people with guns is high, and there is also a mixed reputation.
On the one hand, when people hold guns, they can indeed have a certain ability to resist when they encounter danger, but when the social order is challenged by external forces, those internal unstable factors will also immediately erupt.
Armed robbery, arson, and wounding, and women are afraid to go out on the streets alone...... A series of chaotic situations caused the social atmosphere that was originally sympathetic to criminals to suddenly undergo a 180-degree reversal.
No one is talking about the human rights of criminals anymore, no one is clamoring for respect for criminals, and everyone is eager to bypass the trial and send these guys to hell.
The Southern Republicans, who had been tough at the beginning, took advantage of these opportunities to ridicule the fake intellectuals, and simply took out all the means they had learned to mock people, making the moldy society suddenly more sensitive and irritable.
Subsequently. The human offensive against the demon beasts has not improved much, but the killing of the human beings themselves has become much easier.
Stealing? One shot kills, and even the police won't come.
Robbery? That would be besieged by everyone...... Therefore, when the robbery is successful, it is often a group organized by a large group of people.
So the current situation in the country, much like in some movies, is full of violence and hatred, and there is no longer the same trust between people.
Mr. President is hiding in an underground bunker at this time, protected by a large number of elite troops, and the country's current bad situation has made his temper much bigger.
"A bunch of idiots, the state has allocated so much money. It took so long to find that it has not been developed until now, which is really incompetent. ”
Mr. President slapped his palm on the table, startling his chief of staff.
"Sir, that secret equipment is already very difficult to develop, you don't have to blame them too much, now that the situation is like this, I believe they will redouble their efforts. And the most important thing for us now is to stabilize the situation as soon as possible, otherwise if we continue to toss any longer, we will survive the monster tide. Our country will also be completely reduced to a second-rate country. ”
When Mr. President heard this, he quickly calmed down, and he did not know what the chief of staff said.
The Moldy Nation originally had the strongest armed force in the country. The ten aircraft carrier formations were proud of the entire world, but the demon beast tide made the sea and air power, which the mold country was most proud of, become a waste-like existence overnight, so seventy percent of its power was wasted before the war began.
As early as after the collapse of the Red Empire, the mold country began a major adjustment of the army. Because of the lack of a strong opponent like the Red Empire, the status of the army is getting lower and lower year by year.
A large number of army units have been abolished, and Congress has allocated less and less military spending. Even the treatment of military personnel is increasingly being distanced by the navy and air force.
Funds are needed for the research and development of new weapons, funds are needed for the maintenance of old weapons, and money is also needed for the recruitment of personnel...... But there were almost none of these armies, and they jokingly claimed that after the collapse of the Red Empire, they were simply orphaned at home.
Because there are more high-tech equipment, they do not rely on a lot of manpower, but in reality, no matter how good the equipment is when there are fewer people, it will not work.
Long You reminded the entire world before the second attack of the demon beasts, and the mold country also learned from the lesson of the first lack of manpower and recalled some retired veterans. But before they could resume training, the second wave of attacks broke out in an instant.
So much so that to this day, nearly half of the territory of the country has lost control, and in some places it is not even possible to guarantee communication.
Thinking of this, Mr. President finally couldn't sit still, stood up and said to the chief of staff: "I'm going to check the progress of Project X now, and if I don't put a little pressure on them, I'm afraid I won't succeed in a short time." ”
The chief of staff knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he had to nod and agree.
Project X can be described as the most mysterious and expensive scientific and technological innovation in recent years, and its original design purpose is to compete with the Xiuzhen civilization brought by this guy Longyou.
As the biggest beneficiary of modern science and technology, the country is not willing to let the Xiuzhen civilization replace the status of modern technology, of course, this is also directly related to the fact that Longyou is Russian and is unusually close to Huaguo.
So on the one hand, they maintained a good personal relationship with Long You, and even did not hesitate to send him a plane at a loss, but on the other hand, they vigorously developed modern science and technology, trying to create a new equipment that transcended the times and challenged the deterrent power of Xiuzhen soldiers like Long You.
And the original idea of this technology actually came from a comic book......
Iron Man.
Wearing alloy armor, a small nuclear reactor on his chest, and power propulsion devices everywhere, if you add small missile skills, it is indeed very powerful.
However, if you want to compete with Longyou's strength, you are still a little immature.
The research room was not far from the president's temporary command center, and it didn't take long for them to get to the experimental base by using the underground transportation system.
After the person in charge of the base greeted Mr. President's arrival, he immediately reported the progress of research and development, "Mr. President, this morning's test data shows that more than 90% of the components can pass the test, and only the remaining 10% are not very stable. ”
The president frowned, "In normal times, I would never say that this is wrong, but you have to figure out what the situation is...... We don't have time to take one step at a time, and many things can't be found in the laboratory, so it's better to have this opportunity to fight on the battlefield. (To be continued......)
