Chapter 374: Secret Mission
It was a video communication, Tang Lang looked at the unfamiliar number, and connected it with a little hesitation.
The figure of Changsun Hong appeared on the virtual screen that popped up, Tang Lang was slightly stunned, and hurriedly put his personal wisdom brain on the table, stood up and saluted the top general of the federal military.
Eldest Sun Hong smiled faintly, and gave Tang Lang a military salute back, concise: "Give you a task!" ”
"Yes, please instruct Chief Grandson!" Tang Lang put down his hand, his figure was straight, and his face replied solemnly.
"Don't be so serious, I didn't send you to the battlefield!" Changsun Hong waved his hand. "You're in the Federal Academy of Sciences with Professor Edward?"
"Yes, Chief!" Tang Lang nodded, and turned the brain light screen slightly downward.
Although the white-haired old man's sitting posture was not as unbearable as before, he was still casual, and nodded at Changsun Hong in the virtual screen with a big grin: "Chief Executive, what do you have to say!" Old man, I like to be direct. ”
"Professor Edward, I need to requisition this Chu Warrior Type III mecha that you developed!" Changsun Hong also went straight to the point, seeing the confusion in the old man's eyes, and then explained: "That is, the Xiang Yu mecha you named, Academician Hua Tianli had already passed the conversation with me an hour ago, and the Xiang Yu mecha you developed has passed the digital and physical tests, and if it has been tested in actual combat, it can be finalized, and the Ordnance Research and Development Department under the Ministry of Military Affairs has named the mecha Chu Wushi III in advance!" ”
"Don't name the Ming Samurai Type II for Mao, is it that Hua Tianli, this old boy, thinks that the mecha I developed is stronger than his, and deliberately suggested this to you?" The white-haired old man's eyes were bulging with anger. "No, I'll have to settle accounts with this old boy."
"That's naturally not, it's just that the situation with Jiepeng is becoming more and more tense, and the news that the Ming warriors have begun to serve in batches must not be able to avoid their ears and eyes! Therefore, the engine technology you developed is completely different from the 9th generation mecha of the Ming Samurai, and it will become the secret weapon of the military of our Southwest Federation. At this point, Vice President Hua has used experimental data to prove that the mecha engine you developed is twenty percent stronger than the one currently used by the Ming Samurai, but the energy consumption is slightly higher.
And the Chu Warrior, a mecha that already needs to be eliminated, was modified and upgraded by our federal military as early as seven or eight years ago and continued to serve in the second-line troops, and the Chu Warrior III model can just avoid people's eyes. The 5,000 Chu Samurai III orders ordered by the Southwest Military Region from Julang Company are also completely in line with this trend of modification and upgrading, but the flow of funds may not be as simple and direct as before, 50 billion credits is the final total price of 5,000 mechas, and the rest of the required funds will be remitted by the Ministry of Military Affairs by other means. Eldest Sun Hong's calm explanation.
"Yes, yes, you are the rich man, you have the final say, anyway, we guys who are engaged in technology can't play with you guys who think about pit people all the time." The white-haired old man waved his hand depressedly, and said sarcastically about Changsun Hong, but he could only reluctantly accept this fact.
This kind of strategic deception at the national level, no matter how awesome he is, he can't twist his arms and thighs, I'm afraid that even by the end of the war, the mecha he developed can only be named an old mecha.
"By the way, you said that you want to recruit my Xiang Yu prototype mecha, what do you want to do? Let me tell you, this is the only one left in the world, if it is broken, there is no place to find it, and the 5,000 orders from the Southwest Military Region do not mean that all of them can use the best materials like this one. To tell you the truth, just those ten sniper bullets mixed with Xingchen tungsten are worth as much as one of his old Ming warrior mechas! The white-haired old man suddenly changed his words.
The corners of Tang Lang's mouth twitched slightly. As a participant in the gradual improvement of Xiang Yu's mecha, of course he knew that his teacher was not completely bragging, according to the requirements he proposed to be able to penetrate the fifth-level armor with one blow, the old man gritted his distressed teeth when he smelted Xingchen tungsten to make a special sniper bullet. The mechanical skeletons supporting the mecha were all replaced with special alloys brought back by the white-haired uncle according to Tang Lang's request, which was specially approved by the white-haired old man who pulled down his face and personally found the president of the Federal Academy of Sciences. The blade of the Overlord Gun is purely forged in blue gold, and its hardness and toughness are above the melee weapons equipped by all the Federation's current mechas.
In the last online simulation battle, Tang Lang didn't have the opportunity to compete face-to-face with the masters of the military, otherwise, they would find that there was a huge gap between the ordinary version of the Ming warrior and the limited edition Xiang Yu mecha like him.
Of course, the materials used in the production version of Xiang Yu's mecha will not be so extravagant, except for the difference in the use of engines, the rest of the materials and Ming warrior mecha are at the same level.
It's just that at this time, when he said how awesome his limited edition mecha was, the white-haired old man's bargaining face was completely exposed.
But Changsun Hong seemed to have expected it, and said indifferently: "Your student Tang Lang will perform the special task of the Ministry of Military Affairs, in order to ensure the smooth completion of the mission, having a powerful mecha as a guarantee is the only thing that I, the chief of military affairs, can do for him." ”
As soon as these words came out, the white-haired old man, who had always been unscrupulous, couldn't help grinning.
It can only be said that Changsun Hong is also powerful enough, and it should be said directly that this mecha is not used for other purposes, but is used to save the lives of your students, do you give it to it? If you don't give it, don't say that Tang Lang can't say anything, I'm afraid the white-haired old man will not be able to get by! Anyway, Tang Lang is also the first guy he has finally taken a fancy to for many years. If the mecha is gone, it can be rebuilt, and if the people are gone, there is nothing.
Without waiting for the white-haired old man to nod, he would continue to say: "Of course, the Ministry of Military Affairs will not use your mecha in vain, because you are the chief designer of the miniature mecha project that has just been established, so the Ministry of Military Affairs has decided to allocate 1 billion credits and consumable materials worth no less than 2 billion credits to the project, and at the same time, the tutor Yan Chilie of the Qingyu Military Academy will be chartered to participate in the project." How is it? Professor Edward, if you still need it, just let me know. ”
Tang Lang was dumbfounded, and he was convinced by the federal general. Legend has it that if you slap a sweet jujube, when he deliberately explained that this mecha was for Tang Lang's exclusive use, it was almost destined that Xiang Yu's mecha must be recruited, if the white-haired old man's braincase was still normal.
The sweet jujube in the back is too much. The white-haired old man was just going to the laboratory with a good name, but who knew that not only the eldest grandson Xueqing was eyeing the old man, but the eldest grandson Xueqing's father was even more simply, and in the name of the white-haired old man, he desperately tried his best to facilitate his girl's scientific research team.
The so-called sweet dates, the named Edward may only be able to smell them, how to eat them, but it is the eldest grandson Xueqing who has the final say. What's even more awesome is that no one dares to criticize it in the back for sending things like this, and taking care of your own daughter is not too perfect.
The old man is so right, he is engaged in technology, but he can't play with their gang of politicians.
"Okay, okay, if Lao Tzu puts forward any more conditions, Lao Tzu will become a person from your military." The white-haired old man waved his hand angrily. "However, you have to ensure that this kid Tang Lang can come back with Lao Tzu's mecha completely."
"Then I can't give you such a guarantee, the only thing I can guarantee is 。。。。。。" Changsun Hong's gaze fell on Tang Lang, who came over and stood beside the old man, and it was meaningful: "As a student of yours with the Victory Medal, he is one of the best soldiers in my federal army. If he can't, few people can. ”
"Why let him go? If it's very dangerous, even if the mecha god of war can't be dispatched in my Southwest Federation, there are not a few high-level mecha divisions! The white-haired old man finally couldn't help but ask.
This time, however, he received no answer. Tang Lang had already raised his hand again and saluted: "Guarantee to complete the task!" ”
"Very good, you have twenty minutes to prepare, and in twenty minutes you will leave for the tarmac, and a starship will come to pick you up and your mech! Quests will be communicated to you on the way. The image of Changsun Hong faded away.
The military order is like a mountain, although he doesn't know what kind of task he has to face, Tang Lang is definitely an extremely qualified soldier. Simply packed a few clothes, hurriedly said goodbye to the white-haired old man, and ran to the tarmac of the Academy of Sciences.
The guards had obviously already received the news that the Xiang Yu mecha that had just been transported to the branch for an overnight test last night was loaded into a medium-sized gyrocopter by a large metal box, and three members of the black guards with silver stars on their chests stood in front of the gyroplane.
Tang Lang knew that the one who could wear the silver star was at least an officer above the rank of major in the army, and the one with three silver stars was more likely to be the supreme commander of the guard, Captain Tu Yu.
Being able to use such three people to see them off obviously gave Tang Lang a very high courtesy.
Sure enough, when Tang Lang took the lead in finishing the military salute, and after the three of them returned the salute one by one, the three officers introduced themselves, the three silver stars were the captain Tu Yu, and the other two were the deputy captains, and they were completely the three giants of the guard, which was a courtesy that even the white-haired old man had not had when he came.
But obviously, this kind of courtesy, just relying on Tang Lang's amazing leadership in the network war and the elite of the military to fight evenly and earn a lot of face for the guards. I'm afraid that it was the Ministry of Military Affairs that directly named Tang Lang to carry out the task.
A guy who has an academician as a teacher and can be directly transferred by the highest command body of the federal army, the key is that this guy is still strong enough. To put it bluntly, Tang Lang is the kind of person with a particularly strong background and special strength, if these three don't come together to see them off, it will be strange.
Soldiers, obey the strong, but they are also people, people of society.
After greeting Tang Lang respectively, Tang Lang sat in the gyroplane.
When arriving at the tarmac, a small starship rushed down from the sky, and after two officers verified Tang Lang's face and military number, they took Tang Lang into the starship, and when the metal box containing Xiang Yu's mecha was transported into the starship, the starship quickly took off.
After the starship left Tanggula Star, it accelerated to the extreme, and it didn't take long for Tanggula Star to disappear from Tang Lang's field of vision.
And until now, Tang Lang didn't know where he was going, the two officers were like two wooden people, since they got on the starship, they sat not far from Tang Lang and sat upright, without saying a word.
Tang Lang didn't care, this was not the first time he had participated in this kind of extremely secret action.
There's no need to ask, just wait to accept the task.
