Chapter 225: Iron Beast
Although a powerful enemy has appeared in Huang Shang's field of vision, meaningless worries will only add to his troubles, and what he needs to do now is to further develop the base.
As early as a year and a half ago, Huang Shang vigorously developed the military of the base, and so far, the results achieved are quite fruitful.
The 1,000-strong mechanized armored combat readiness brigade, each equipped with power armor, of course, will continue to rise as the number of military factory shipments increases.
Fifty queen bee drone formations, according to each formation of twenty drones, the number of drones deployed in the base has reached 1,000, which can monitor the perimeter of the base in almost all directions without dead ends, and block all xenomorphs and mutants who try to break through the outer city wall.
Sixty sentry machine guns, although the sentry machine guns were extremely useful for the base in the early days of the apocalypse, but with the increase of xenomorph strength and the upgrading of the base's equipment and weapons, the sentry machine guns were only deployed on the city wall as auxiliary firepower, after all, this weapon was bulky and not very powerful, and it was difficult to continue to undertake the defense of the base.
An Empress Bee fighter, which can almost be regarded as the strongest firepower of the base, but the number is scarce, although Victor has been cracked, but it will take a while to create a new replica in the military factory.
Of course, in addition to these weapons and equipment, the base is equipped with some weapons that are specially designed to deal with Juggernaut-level mutants, such as heavy electromagnetic cannons, flamedevourers and other weapons, which can also come in handy at critical moments.
On top of that, the Assassin 2K-helicopter gunships, as well as 60,000 ordinary soldiers and some regular heavy armored vehicles, all combined with firepower, could completely dominate the entire region.
What's more, an entire aircraft carrier formation is still practicing in the East China Sea, and as long as his soldiers master the ability to control the entire aircraft carrier formation, the base's ocean-going combat capability will be greatly increased.
However, this undoubtedly highlights the shortcomings of land warfare.
The armaments of the entire base are mainly defensive means, and the army's ability to take the initiative to attack is quite weak.
Although there are some pre-apocalyptic heavy tanks in the school yard, in this wasteland, it is difficult for conventional heavy tanks to resist the xenomorphs and mutants of secondary evolution, so it is necessary to build a cross-era heavy tank.
Huang Shang immediately woke up the system and entered the weapon interface.
The richness of the models of land combat units is beyond Huang Shang's imagination.
Anti-tank guns, heavy mortars, heavy tanks, armed fortresses, these regular land combat units have everything, and more importantly, they, like the Queen Bee fighters, are completely out of this era.
If you want to strengthen your base's army, it's a smart idea to focus on these weapons.
Although anti-tank guns and mortars also attracted Huang Shang's attention, from the overall strength of the base, it is very necessary to choose heavy tanks.
Not only that, but when the drawings of the tank are broken, all work on the assembly line of the military factory will be stopped, and the newly developed tank will be fully developed.
The number one enemy of the base now is not an ordinary xenomorph, nor is it a mutant who dominates a certain area, but people.
Whether it's the Seventh Overseer, the Four Kingdoms, or the Temple, or the Northern War Alliance, these enemies that can suppress the base are all formed by humans.
Long before the apocalypse, Huang Shang had such a guess that at the beginning of the apocalypse, the slaughter of xenos and mutants would directly enter the climax stage, because humans could not adapt to the sudden apocalypse, but the xenomorphs were perfect creatures in the wasteland.
But human beings are human beings after all, and the most important difference is that they can think, use and create tools.
Once humans have found the weaknesses, habits, and laws of xenomorphs, then no matter how ferocious xenos are, they will only be like beasts in a cage, waiting to be killed by humans.
In just one and a half years, human beings have established large and small organizations, developed population, science and technology, and accumulated military strength, until now, it is no longer those rampant and manic xenos that give Huang Shang a headache, but these human beings.
Then, the weapons and equipment created earlier for xenomorphs will be greatly reduced.
The base can only continue to develop in the wasteland if it continues to create weapons and equipment against human bases and organizations.
What's more, the mechanical spies in the base made Huang Shang feel a little uneasy, he had already made a war letter against the Northern War Alliance, so it was only a matter of time before the other party attacked.
In order to deal with the Northern Warlord, which has a strong military power, it is essential to have a powerful heavy tank.
"The Scorpion heavy tank is ahead of the world's leading tanks in terms of firepower, fire control system and protection performance. And can carry out combat missions in a variety of complex tactical backgrounds.
Combat full weight: 67 tons
Maximum speed on the road: 85 km/h
Maximum off-road speed: 67 km/h
Engine power: 1900 hp
Main gun type: 160 mm smoothbore tank run
Machine gun type: 3 x 9.62 mm parallel machine guns, 2 x 15.7 mm anti-aircraft machine guns
Shells: 60 rounds
Ammunition: 1900 rounds of 9.62 mm machine gun rounds and 1450 rounds of 15.7 mm machine gun rounds. ”
Looking at the parameters provided by the system, Huang Shang almost fell into a frenzy, for ordinary people, they may not understand the concept of these parameters, but for a hot-blooded young man who often browses the sergeant forum, he knows the strong strength of this tank.
"It's... It's simply the truth. Huang Shang's eyes showed a look of horror, compared to the world's top heavy tanks today, the performance of the Scorpion heavy tank has been almost 170% improved.
Although what he saw was only the parameters, in Huang Shang's eyes, a behemoth had already been built up in his mind.
Once the Scorpion tank is introduced, it will crush any heavy tank on the planet, that is, when a full-scale war breaks out, Huang Shang can completely control the tank army, directly approach the hinterland of the enemy's base, and crush the enemy's lair.
It's like a helpless little boy exposed to heavily armed terrorists, and can only meet death quietly except for despair.
What shocked Huang Shang even more was that the reactive armor of the Scorpion tank, except for the large-scale bombing of the Rocket Force, all other individual combat equipment or defensive weapons could not break through its reactive armor at all.
"Kill Points Required: 799"
"Make it now." Huang Shang clicked the build button.
Long ago, Huang Shang had carried out large-scale hunting operations against xenos, and the hunting points had accumulated more than a thousand, which was more than enough to make a scorpion-type heavy armor.
The light curtain model in the air gradually took on a physical form, and a steel beast finally appeared in front of Huang Shang's eyes.
