Chapter 23: Understanding
This is the training of the Knights of the Round Table, the most noble of the Shenwu Empire, and there is nothing remarkable about it. You see, Lao Tzu can also receive such elite training, and Lao Tzu has carried it, and has been able to carry it.
Whenever in the middle of the night, when the muscles of the tired day cramped or even spasmed, he actually laughed and burst into tears. Xu Gong said that people like Li Dong are masochists, super M system, and only Castre's hellish training method can subdue him.
If you ask Li Dong what is the meaning or purpose of carrying it like this, he will answer you with a crazy heart.
"Fuck, I'm going to drive the mecha and beat that little old man out of the shit!"
It seems that he was not convinced of Castel's brutal training.
These all originated from Xia Liangcai's evaluation of his mecha tactics on the third day of special training, when he was training for mechas.
"Sergeant Li Dong, what you asked me to see is also a mecha technique? Let me tell you what I saw, this is a piece of, this is garbage, it is scum, even if an interstellar tyrannosaurus eats the entire mecha one by one, and then pulls out those things, it is closer to mecha than what I just saw!" After Castel asked Li Dong and XCMG to fight, he did not hesitate to evaluate Li Dong's self-proclaimed improvised, freewheeling, and whimsical mecha technique.
"Hey, old man, pay attention to what you say!" "Mecha training is the only time Castel allows others to discuss unscrupulously, and other training times, anyone has to listen to Colonel Castel, but during mech training time, you can discuss, argue, and even challenge him.
At the beginning, Xia Liangcai raised his own doubts about mecha training.
"Lao Tzu is going to be a bodyguard for the princess, I have nothing to do to run errands to deliver love letters, buy snacks, and I wear bulletproof vests and protective shields to block in front of the princess. Besides, Lao Tzu's mecha skills are obvious to all, and beating one or two B-level mecha masters like XCMG is a matter of minutes. ”
Castel snorted and sneered, "I ask you, if you want to be against the princess, what weapon should you use in the heavily guarded Imperial College London?"
"Metal guns, laser guns, laser cannons, anything, it's really not good, watermelon knives can cut people! Kill people, do you still need to pick and choose weapons?" Li Dong raised his eyebrows.
Castel gave XCMG a look, indicating that he was too lazy to talk to this halfway non-professional.
Xu Gong coughed, looked at Li Dong, and was ashamed of his unashamed, ignorant and fearless, especially when people knew that he and Li Dong were friends, they really wanted to pretend not to know each other and walk away silently. Xu Gong looked at the sky and explained: "Imperial College of Technology, because it gathers all the elites and upper-class nobles and children of the royal family in the entire Shenwu Empire, is one of the places with the highest concentration of talents in the empire. Therefore, the defense level of the Imperial Institute of Technology is only below the palace. Laser weapons can only enter the campus after being approved at various levels, checking the source and the final destination, through the application of the military, and the review of the hospital. Not to mention metal firearms, the four entrances and exits of the school are equipped with metal detectors and perspective instruments, which are monitored in 24-hour shifts throughout the day, but they cannot be mixed in. And the metal products such as watermelon knives you mentioned are also strictly controlled, and the cutting utensils used in canteens and restaurants are all high-performance porcelain, if possible, and of course there will be metal knives, which require special applications and instructions. We also mainly defend against the possible damage that porcelain weapons can do to the princess. ”
"It's not always like this, otherwise the princess just needs to find two professional bodyguards at random. Castel continued, "Both the military and the royal family know where the holes in the Imperial University are, and that is the mecha. As the largest mecha research and training base in the Empire, the restrictions of mechs are not as strict as other weapons, and they cannot be as strict as others. ”
"Why is that?" Li Dong frowned. Be strict, and Lao Tzu can directly return to his hometown.
"Probably because those mecha researchers and professors are more efficient!" guessed XCMG.
Unexpectedly, Castel nodded.
Li Dong looked at the sky speechlessly, the one who holds the knife can't fight the pen, and the one who drives the mecha can't fight the mecha - it's hard!
In terms of Castell's evaluation of Li Dong's mecha skills. Li Dong was naturally very unconvinced.
"Lao Tzu obviously knocked down the little white face of XCMG. ”
Abi stepped forward and was the back of his head, and I became a little white face when I was plotted by you: "Damn it, are you such a fool?" You have surrendered, and you actually attacked me when my mecha turned around. Saying that, when he looked at Castelle, Xu Gong hurriedly withdrew the hand that hit Li Dong and smiled embarrassedly. Castre's open-ended teaching during mech training is really easy to expose.
"That's not what I'm talking about. XCMG let his guard down because the enemy had surrendered, and this was indeed a good opportunity to attack him. Castel said.
I didn't expect him to say this, Xu Gong's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it: "But, teacher, the spirit of the pilot is not a rule...... In the past three days, Xu Gong has regarded the former head of such a Knights of the Round Table as a respectable teacher.
"The spirit of a pilot is a piece of shit in the face of life and death, and only those who break this rule can survive on the brutal battlefield. "Castel and Li Dong are similar in this regard. It's a pity that XCMG can't agree, even in the face of his most respected teacher.
"Of course, your pilot's spirit doesn't matter when you're on this mission. Castel added.
I only heard him continue: "Sergeant Li Dong, your mecha technique still has merit at the level of consciousness, and at the level of technology, even if you are a beginner who has just studied for a year, it is much better than you. ”
"Lao Tzu has not been a year old. Li Dong muttered quietly.
Ignoring Li Dong's complaints, Castel asked, "Sergeant, let me ask you, what do you think the mecha is?"
Li Dong looked confused. What is a mecha? It's a mecha. Just like what an egg is, why 1+1 equals 2, what is there to ask. It is a matter of course, the rules of the universe.
"What about you?" Castel saw that Li Dong couldn't answer for a while, and asked Xu Gong instead.
Xu Gong showed a thoughtful look and understood the general meaning of this question: "My understanding is that mecha is a tool of war, a three-dimensional tank, and a land version of the fighter. ”
"Hmm. Castel nodded, not right or wrong, "Although mecha has been widely used in modern warfare, there is no textbook in our Shenwu Empire that can explain a question of what the mecha represents. The understanding of each person's mecha determines the style of his mecha technique. Rigid definitions of dead mechs only limit pilots from discovering their own mechs. ”
"So, teacher, what is your understanding of mechas?" asked Xu Gong curiously.
Castel glanced at Xu Gong deeply, and only after a while did he reply: "The mecha I think is like an army, it is the strongest shield to protect the country, it is the sharpest sword to attack the enemy, and to maintain the peace of the Shenwu Empire, you must hold the sword and shield tightly in your hand." Punctuality, solid as gold, solid as a rock, when attacking, decisive and fierce, thunderous blows. I hope that my understanding will give you a deeper understanding of mecha arts, and that it will be a help rather than a constraint. ”
