Chapter 162: Bunker Outpost

"Well, let's talk about it first." Lieutenant General Cohen nodded.

"Good ......," and then Qin Hao told the two Zerg experiments he saw.

"You mean the Zerg are doing biochemical experiments with human captives?" Lieutenant General Cohen asked with a frown.

"Yes, but it seems that their experiments did not go well, and the genes of the zerg and humans did not seem to be compatible, so several experiments failed, and the test subjects died quickly as soon as they were out of the culture system." Qin Hao said.

"It's really important!" Lieutenant General Cohen nodded, and then continued: "I will report this matter to the command and the president, and it is up to them to decide how to deal with it, and our top priority now is to save ourselves." ”

"I know, I'm here for this." Qin Hao nodded.

"Tell me what you think." Lieutenant General Cohen said.

"That's right, the Federation Glory has always kept the shield and weapon system on, so the waste of energy is very serious, I think you can use soldiers to patrol to stay vigilant, and when you find a large number of insect swarms, it will be too late to turn on the defense system." Qin Hao said.

"We did try your idea at first, but the effect was not ideal, the bugs are elusive, they may rush out of the ground at any time, and the soldiers are not able to fight at all without cover." General Cohen frowned and said, Qin Hao's thoughts are not unthought of, but the effect is very unsatisfactory.

"That's right, just let the soldiers patrol outside, that's definitely not going to work, I'm going to set up some outposts to form a perimeter cordon!" Qin Hao said.

"Establish an outpost...... Lieutenant General Cohen frowned.

"Yes, when I went outside to survey the field before, I found that the ground in many places is not made of dirt, but made of rocks, and insects in these places cannot raid by digging holes, and if you build a defense point here, you can effectively block ordinary insects." Qin Hao said.

Qin Hao did find a lot of places suitable for building defensive fortresses in his previous survey, where the bugs could not attack directly from the ground, and the soldiers could effectively attack the sporadic ordinary giant beetles with their bunkers, and because of the relationship between the guards and the guns, it was unlikely that the Zerg would carry out large-scale attacks, so these outposts should be very safe.

"Tell me about it!" As soon as Lieutenant General Cohen heard that Qin Hao's plan was indeed feasible, he immediately became interested.

"Look!" Qin Hao said as he spread out the temporary map he had drawn, and then pointed to some nodes on it and said, "These nodes were all drawn by me after field surveys, and their locations are all rocky ground, and the Zerg cannot attack through the underground. Qin Hao pointed to those nodes on the map and said.

"Well, it's not difficult to build a bunker or something, there are two engineer battalions on the USS Federation Glory, they are fully equipped, and the bunker should be completed soon." Lieutenant General Cohen nodded.

Lieutenant General Cohen had also tried to build bunkers to defend them, but the bugs could attack directly from underground, so those bunkers were quickly dismantled, because no one could fully map the environment around the battleship, so it was impossible to reasonably configure the outpost, and the plan was eventually shelved.

Now that Qin Hao has mapped out all the locations where the bunker can be built, as long as the staff department is reasonably deployed, an outpost line that can watch and help each other can be determined quickly, and when the time comes, if the engineer battalion is in full swing, an early warning circle can soon be established on the periphery of the battleship.

"Do you think this plan is feasible?" Qin Hao asked.

"Yes, I'll ask Nicole to send this drawing to the General Staff, and they should be able to design the best outpost position in no time." Lieutenant General Cohen said.

"Good!" Qin Hao nodded.

"There's one more problem, though." Lieutenant General Cohen said.

"When the plan comes out and the construction of the engineer camp begins, you and the people from Twilight will have to help keep an alert, and those bugs will come to wreak havoc." Lieutenant General Cohen said that they had given up on building bunker outposts, which was also a significant reason.

The Zerg commanders are very intelligent, and they simply don't allow humans to set up bunkers around the battleship, so whenever the construction of the engineer battalion begins, they will send small groups of bugs to destroy it.

Because there was no "Twilight" organization and a master like Qin Hao to protect it before, the construction of the engineer camp was quite difficult, and the losses were also very large, and after the bunker was finally built, it was possible that it was disintegrated from the inside by insects because of the problem of site selection, so in the end, Lieutenant General Cohen gave up the construction of the outer outpost.

Now that Qin Hao has mapped out all the locations suitable for building a bunker, and with the reinforcement warriors of the "Twilight" organization and Qin Hao on his side, the construction of the engineer battalion will become much smoother, so Lieutenant General Cohen will re-approve the plan to build a bunker outpost.

Soon, Qin Hao's map was sent to the staff by Nicole, and those staff officers were also very efficient, and it only took less than an hour to determine the defensive line of the bunker outpost, and send the detailed plan to Lieutenant General Cohen's desk.

"Good! Just follow this plan! Lieutenant General Cohen immediately made the decision, and then, escorted by two 2,000 marines, the engineer battalion drove the engineering vehicle out of the battleship and began to work on the first bunker.

"Really, we came to their rescue, but we didn't expect to protect these sappers now......," complained one of the fortified men, a warrior.

"Alright! Now we are grasshoppers on a rope, if we can't hold out until the engine is repaired, then everyone will be doomed! Ken glared at the guy and said.

"Yes, don't complain, no one wants this situation, the top priority now is to live!" Another fortified warrior also persuaded.

"Everyone be in good spirits, don't let up, lest you be attacked by those bugs!" Ken loudly admonished that they had already died a lot of people because they had been attacked from underground by the Zerg.

"Got it!" One by one, these fortified warriors were armed with individual energy cannons, and they were interspersed with ordinary marines, carefully guarding everything around them.

Soon, the construction of the engineer battalion began, because all of them were built using 3D printing technology, so the construction speed of the bunker was very fast, and the superalloy particles were shot out of the spray gun of the engineering vehicle, and they were accurately combined into the appearance set in the computer, and it only took about twenty minutes, and a bunker that could accommodate ten people could be built!
