Chapter 33: Imperial Hunting
September 23, 2505. Fourth Field, Heavy Karma, Beta-4 C27ยท F591, Antigar (vassal) planet.
Although the entire Ansu needs a complete transformation for the Holy Empire, after all, the meal needs to be eaten one bite at a time, and everything must be done one by one. Now the first step is to rebuild the capital city.
As long as this city, which was suspected to have been destroyed by a Federation warship, remained in a state of ruins for every additional day, it would be a slap in the face of the officials of the Holy Empire.
Bing Lan Xin will meet the sect and discuss with the elders of the sect about studying in the Holy Empire. Left, Anbiru and Field's team returned to Shangjing.
An Biru still habitually wants to take the train. A Pelican troop carrier landed in front of her, and when she looked at it recently, Anbi trembled for a moment. The Pelican troop carrier in front of him turned out to be exactly the same ship that the people who attacked Shangjing that night.
Self-directed and self-acted! For a moment, the word flashed through An Biru's mind, but soon she realized that the pelican in front of her seemed to be different from the group that attacked Shangjing.
Field noticed Ambiru's abnormality, and followed her gaze to have a rough guess.
"Isn't it alike?"
"That's right! What the? โ
Field laughed, didn't say anything, walked over to the open door on the side of the Pelican, and made a gentlemanly-looking gesture.
Puzzled, Anbiru boarded the Pelican. Field followed, and then a pair of engine vents turned to the ground, and a burst of blue flames lifted the pelican. It was joined by other troop carriers waiting in the air, and escorted by attack planes to the direction of Shangjing.
The Pelican, in the engine room, Field opened his mouth to explain: "This one we are sitting on is a type of multi-purpose troop carrier, designed for a maximum speed of Mach 1!" And the amount of reproduction is also large, it is a very classic type of design. The Imperial Federation has a large amount of equipment, and it cannot be said that we are a group. The Holy Empire can't do anything that would be so detrimental to its glory. โ
The language was full of disdain for the Federation, and through the porthole, Ambiru observed several Pelicans flying next to her. She compared it with the scene in her memory, and found that there were indeed many subtle differences between the two. One of the most obvious differences is the paint on the fuselage.
Field, she told her, was called a livery. The Imperial Navy, the Army, and the Air Force all have Pelicans, and they differ in model and livery. Field pointed to the red, black, and white cross-sword and shield logo printed on the fuselage, and said proudly.
"This is the emblem of the Imperial Army, representing the glory of the Empire. The insignia of the three armies of the empire is almost the same length, and the people of the empire will not hide it under any circumstances. You can rely on this to identify the empire. โ
"How long will it take us to get there?"
"About seven hours, right? Sgt. Sir, how long will it take for us to get to Shangjing? โ
A soldier in the front seat replied: "Report to the commander, the whole journey is 6,200 kilometers, and it is expected to resist the target in seven hours and twenty minutes." โ
6200 kilometers is equivalent to three round-trips with Wuhan and Beijing! The Pelican is terrifying!
Field looked at An Biru and thought to himself, "It doesn't matter if a woman sits for seven hours, right? However, he considered that such a direct inquiry would inevitably be a bit discriminatory against women.
"Seven hours! So long? After three hours, land for an hour to rest. It's not a war, let the brothers rest. โ
"Yes!"
An Biru glanced at Field, who pretended not to care, and An Biru didn't say anything.
On Field's orders, the group flew for three hours and then landed to rest. The landing place is a plain, endless grassland.
The sky is blue, the wilderness is vast, and the wind blows the grass and shows cattle and sheep.
But the cattle and sheep don't, but there are a few strange things. It's time for dinner, too, just in time for dinner. The troop carriers had some field food in stock. However, the meaning of emergency reserve is emergency. Clearly, this is not an emergency. Of course, it is also possible to call in the fleet to drop supplies.
A living person can be dropped from orbit, let alone some dead objects?
However, the property of the empire was not squandered like this, and Field did not want that. Immediately, he remembered the strange animal he had seen in the grass when he had landed earlier.
"Lord An, can you eat those?"
Anbiru followed the direction that Field was pointing, saw what was in the grass, and said, "Yes, yes." But ......"
Before Ampria could finish speaking, Field pulled the rifle out of the Pelican.
"Brothers, kill a few strange beasts! Fight the tooth sacrifice! "It seems that this kind of thing is not the first time to do it, and he is like a mountain king. That's like what an imperial regular army.
The rear hatches of several Pelicans opened, and the loaded wheeled off-road vehicles were lowered one by one. This is the treasure of the army, the Pig wheeled chariot. Several soldiers skillfully sat in the chariot, one pilot, one co-pilot, and one operated the vehicle-mounted cannon in the back. Three wheeled vehicles for a squad.
Three squads were distributed in a zigzag pattern and pounced on the prey in the grass. As soon as the engine sounded, the nine Pigs flew out like arrows, leaving behind a trail of grass clippings torn apart by the tire lines. and a group of accompanying officials and experts who smiled helplessly, and An Biru who was stunned.
What she didn't say was that those beasts were too fast to catch.
Those brutes had seen the pelican for the first time, and they wondered what kind of steel bird it was. When the Warthog pounced, a sense of crisis arose instantly, dispelling all curiosity. A group of brutes, the girl will run, and the rabbits are all grandchildren. Running fast and cunning.
However, the Pig is not a scrap of copper and iron, and is known as a treasure of the army, so it naturally has some ability. The top speed of 90 kilometers per hour and superior all-terrain adaptability are the reasons why the Army loves it.
As time passed, the distance between the hunter and the hunter became less and less. When the best range was about 100 meters, Field ordered.
"Everyone prepare, shoot according to the B4 plan!"
When the plan was made, the plan was made when the army school was studying. Numerical mastery of each attack scheme is a necessary condition for graduation into service. The content of the scheme is that one person in the battle formation aims at one target and attacks at the same time according to the commander's instructions. B4 is the official Imperial standard number of the scheme, and the team can privately agree on other codes.
The Hog immediately adjusted its speed and remained as stationary as possible with its fleeing prey. The soldier in the passenger seat picked up his rifle and began to aim and prepare. About 6 seconds passed, which is the standard prep time in the lesson plan.
"Fire!"
Several soldiers opened fire at the same time! Seven people fired, one missed the target. Of the prey that were hit, five were killed on the spot. The pig squad flicked their tails and brakes one after another, this is not to be handsome, this is a tactical move engraved into the muscles. The soldier held his gun and cautiously approached the fallen prey. The soldiers who operated the on-board weapons did not let up in the slightest, according to the lesson plan, several of them aimed at the prey with their weapons, and the rest were on guard on the perimeter.
A few meters closer to the prey, several soldiers stopped. Only one person stepped forward to confirm that the target was dead.
Make a mountain out of a molehill? Perhaps, they thought the hunt was a military exercise. It wasn't until they had completed all the textbook requirements that the group smiled. The tension faded away, and several men stepped forward and tied the prey to the tail of the Pig with hooks.
The group dragged their prey back to the camp, like bandits returning to the cottage. Or a robber who robs his house and lives at a house. In particular, Field's military uniform was straight, but he couldn't suppress his gangsterism. An Biru once wondered if she had encountered the Imperial Army in disguise.
Field instructed his subordinates to pack up their chariots and equipment, and not to slack off on the guard of the camp. He walked up to An Biru and asked, "What's wrong?" What do you seem to want to say? โ
"If I tell Ansu now that hunting is prohibited, this Bei'an prairie is the private property of the royal family, and poaching is strictly prohibited. What do you do? โ
"Then I can only report that our camp was attacked by strange beasts, and our three warnings were ineffective, and we were forced to fire back."
An Biru was stunned for a moment and laughed. She seems to recognize the true face of this group of imperial people, a group of cultured bandits. And what 'forbidden hunting, royal privatization', has not been mentioned since then. Field was glad he didn't have to write a report. Although, he was also joking.
It didn't take long for the meat to be cooked.
The people who had been hunting before stepped forward to share the food, and the soldier in charge of the guard shook his head helplessly after taking a look at this side and turned back. Field was also complacent, and did not ask for military discipline. Right, give this group of brothers a vacation. Who let him take the lead in hunting? If you have fun hunting, you should enjoy the fruits of the battle in the same atmosphere.
But this joy did not last long. The soldier who was the first to serve the broth began to chew on a piece of meat, and his face changed. Until someone asked him.
"Brother, have you swallowed it?"
"No, I don't. Haven't finished chewing yet. โ
A minute passed, and almost all the soldiers' smiles were gone. I saw one by one, the soldiers sitting there with their bowls in their hands, chewing with serious faces.
Chewing.
Seeing this, Field also took a bowl of meat and ate it. After chewing it, Field's face changed. cast a puzzled look at Anbiru.
"This Ansu grassland broken iron beast is famous for its meat like beef tendons. Cooking is definitely not rotten. โ
Field chewed, a 'why didn't you say it sooner' on his face.
"I threw up. How? Haven't you ever eaten meat? โ
Field didn't speak, but sat in the middle of the crowd and chewed. The expression is eerie and terrifying, as if he is chewing on the bunch of minced pieces of the Federation in his mouth!
Anbi is like a strange person. I heard a soldier next to him explain with some schadenfreude.
"No, the Imperial Army's meals are all about the finest beef. If you don't pay attention, you will gain weight. โ
"And what are they?"
"You don't know, Imperial military regulations, not a single grain of food is allowed to be left in the bowl. Violators will be expelled from the military at the least, and will be punished by military law. โ
"You have a b......"
Anbi was about to say, "You are sick", and immediately stopped it. I can only cast a sympathetic look at the person sitting on the ground chewing rubber.
The soldier shouted without worrying about it.
"Brothers, drink soup! Taste the fruits of the brother's victory. โ
A group of people went up and served only soup, not meat. This is fully compliant. There Field chewed meat like rubber, chewing until he doubted life. He couldn't figure out why he was so full of food and thought about taking a break. Rest and rest, and have nothing to do to hunt.
Finally, after eating a bowl of meat, Nima, the cheeks of a group of people chewed were swollen. Pouted with a big mouth, to see who and who were anxious. As for those who drank the soup, they didn't think it was a big deal, and went up to ask provocatively, "How does the meat taste?"
It was also such a fuss, and it was originally planned to have an hour's rest and meal time. It dragged on for almost two hours before the group got back on the road.
An Biru has a new perspective on the people of the empire. On some inconsequential issues, the Imperials are not very serious, they are very casual. But when it comes to some issues, the imperial people are stubborn and terrible. For example, the military-spec one.
