Chapter 4: The Life of Zhiyuanxing (1)
The UNSC Fire Spirit is a Phoenix-class support ship belonging to the UNSC Navy, and in the story of Halo War, this battleship is the protagonist of the story. Although the firepower www.biquge.info not as good as the Covenant warships of the same level, it is better than being able to perform a variety of missions.
After boarding the Fire Spirit, Xiahoulin and the others were taken to the rest room prepared for them. Originally, they were going to conduct a physical examination for the three people, but after seeing the mental outlook of the three people, the medical soldiers did not force them to undergo a physical examination immediately.
After spending almost an hour in the break room, Charho Lin was received by Captain Carter along with Autumn Moon and Laxis.
Captain Carter was very curious about how the three of them had lived on a planet full of Covenants for so many years after the fall of Fertility. And before that, he was in the Antarctic region and killed so many enemy fleets.
As for explaining this matter to the other party, Xia Houlin gave Laxis to deal with it, and he didn't intervene, but began to raise a large number of human warships in front of him.
It can be said that the current task plane is the most technologically advanced world that Xiahoulin and his party have experienced. Mankind has already begun to enter the stage of interstellar colonization, and it is not difficult to imagine the various technologies involved.
"It's all good technology, and it's worth bringing back." Xia Houlin looked at those advanced equipment, and such an idea immediately popped up in his heart. Of course, I also know that this must wait for a suitable opportunity.
Xia Houlin didn't know how Laxis had fooled the captain, and after talking for a while, he didn't ask his group any questions about their identities.
"Captain Carter, you said you want to see what the weapons you have developed are different about." Laxis said to Charhoulin about this, after all, it was a time of war. The attention of military personnel to weapons is always the first priority.
"Okay, I'm sure they'll be interested." Xia Houlin knew that the individual weapons in his hands were definitely good things that the UNSC side needed at the moment.
In a makeshift range aboard the Vulner, Xiahoulin and his party arrived at this place, ready to test the power of the new ammunition in their hands.
Now around Xiahoulin, in addition to Captain Carter, there are also many officers of the Marine Corps, and they are all a little curious. What kind of lethality does the weapon in this person's hand have?
Because before Xia Houlin boasted that the power of the ammunition he developed was much more advanced than that of the UNSC infantry equipment.
Fifty meters in front of Xiahoulin, there was a humanoid target with a set of standard Marine armor from the current UNSC.
After aiming at the target in front of him, Xia Houlin calmly pulled the trigger of the weapon in his hand, and with a short shot of three bursts, three bullets flew out of the muzzle.
The next moment, there was an explosion on the target in front of him. The powerful explosion power directly blew the target to pieces.
Seeing this shocking scene, the captains and others on the side widened their eyes, and they didn't expect that the bullets fired from the gun in Xia Houlin's hand actually had a power similar to that of a grenade.
When humans and the Covenant fought at close range on the ground, they suffered losses in weapons and equipment. The other side uses advanced plasma weapons, while the UNSC troops still use live-fire weapons.
However, the Covenant forces have energy shields to protect their soldiers, and they are able to withstand multiple blows from live weapons. On the other hand, humans do not have such technology, so if they want to kill their opponent, they have to hit them multiple times in a row. This is a matter of human life in a dangerous battlefield.
And now the bullet brought by Xia Houlin has a strong explosive power. This is simply an excellent weapon to break the Covenant Energy Shield,
"The power of these airburst bombs is no less destructive than that of ordinary grenades. It can be said that it is the top weapon among live weapons. Xiahou Lin got up and said to the officers beside him, and those people were all looking at the weapons in their hands with blazing eyes at the moment, and their eyes were shining.
"It is true, if all of our troops use this bullet. Then when fighting ground battles with those Star Alliances, the lethality of the weapons in his hands will definitely not lose to the opponent's energy weapons. A Marine officer looked at the automatic rifle in Xiahoulin's hand, although the gun was not very good, but the special bullet was indeed powerful. The energy shield used to break the Covenant forces is obviously a very good choice.
"Dr. Altaïr, do you remember how this particular bullet was made?" Captain Carter asked Charhoulin that this kind of bullet is indeed a very much-needed equipment for the current UNSC troops.
If the bullets are to be produced on a large scale in the future, then in future ground battles, the Marines and the Covenant infantry will be able to close the gap between the weapons and equipment of the two sides.
In fact, the UNSC also has a high-power live-fire weapon, that is, the Gauss sniper rifle that is in the experimental stage. However, the cost of that thing was too high and it could not be fired continuously, so there was no way to mass-produce it for the troops.
Now the bullet brought by Xiahoulin can provide powerful firepower for the UNSC's infantry weapons, so the method of making the bullet is very important.
"Of course I remember, as long as I have the appropriate equipment. It can be produced in large quantities, and the kind of reconnaissance aircraft that my wife is working on can also be equipped with good things for infantry. Xia Houlin did not forget to recommend Qiu Yue's research project, because the plan that his group had changed before was that everyone chose a technology and disguised themselves as experts in it. Then, as a means, it entered the important research units of UNSC.
Xiahoulin chose individual weapons, Autumn Moon researched robotics, and Laxis chose the energy weapon that the UNSC needed most.
"In fact, when we were trapped in the planet of Abundance, we observed the process of the UNSC forces fighting the aliens. I also studied a lot of weapons and equipment, but unfortunately there was no suitable environment at that time. Laxis also spoke from the side, knowing that these words would attract the attention of the military.
"Order the battleship to turn, let's go to Zhiyuan!" Without hesitation, Captain Carter gave the order to turn around and head towards the inner colony of humanity.
…..
Zhiyuan is a near-Earth colonization planet of humans and the headquarters of the UNSC. Because it is rich in titanium, the raw material metal of A-class titanium alloy, which is the main material used to make the armor of human space warships, Zhiyuanxing is also the production base of UNSC's large warships.
Although Reach is a planet with a predominantly military objective, it is also home to a large number of cities and hundreds of millions of inhabitants. So from the outside, it looks like no other human colony.
In a large testing ground, a team of soldiers is training in shooting with assault rifles. The discarded armored vehicles in front of them were hit by bullets fired from assault rifles, and they sent out a series of explosions.
"Dr. Altaïr, these improved airburst bombs have twenty percent more armor-piercing and destructive power than the original ones. It has exceeded the requirements of the military and seems to meet the needs of mass production. A bespectacled researcher said excitedly to his boss.
At this moment, Xiahoulin was dressed in a white research suit, accompanied by five young researchers, all of whom were his assistants, and their task was to record the power of the new ammunition ahead.
The current time is May 2531, and Xiahoulin and his party were sent directly to the military headquarters of Zhiyuan Star by the Fire Spirit three months ago. After hearing the report and seeing the destructive power of the airburst bomb, the three were immediately recruited to join the military's research institute and begin their respective research projects.
The military can provide all the resources to support the research of Xia Houlin and others, but all their research projects must serve the military battle.
Such a request was in the middle of it, and Xiahoulin and others agreed to the military's request without hesitation. So the three of them stayed in Zhiyuanxing, and easily entered the military's research institute.
The design of the airburst bomb provided by Xia Houlin was soon successfully transformed on the Zhiyuan Star. It was then quickly produced by military factories and began to replace the ordinary bullets used by the army on a large scale.
Moreover, the individual soldier cloud burst bomb that was originally eliminated was also tested in Zhiyuanxing, and then it was used as a fire support weapon for infantry squads and began to equip the army on a large scale.
What is being tested in this test site today is the latest air-burst bomb that has been improved according to the requirements of the front. Enhance its explosive power and impact to better destroy the Covenant Soldier's shields.
But Xiahoulin didn't care much about this, after all, the improvement of the airburst bomb was almost at the end. The next direction of evolution of physical weapons is Ascari? Gauss weapons like the Kaman Railgun.
"That's all for the improved bullet test, how is the latest combat suit going?" Xia Houlin asked a blonde beauty beside him, his main task at present is to develop the latest type of individual combat uniform.
"Preliminary tests have been completed, and the test soldiers sent by the Hell paratroopers are very satisfied with the armored suits." The female researcher immediately replied that she had personally participated in the research of the armored suit. Therefore, I have full confidence in the performance of that equipment.
Xia Houlin and his party did have all the technical information of a combat suit in their hands, that is, the equipment that was pierced by the sharp claws of the insects in the Galaxy Clan.
Perhaps the defense of this combat suit is not very good, and it is impossible to withstand the blows of energy weapons like the Thor's hammer power armor on the Spartan warrior. However, it is significantly better than the combat uniforms currently used by the Marine Corps on the UNSC side.
As for the request for Xiahoulin to study this combat uniform, it is also a request made by the "hell paratroopers", the most elite unit on the UNSC side.
The Hell Paratroopers are the elite units of the UNSC Marine Corps, highly trained fighters who can descend from space to the ground in an assault pod. This extraordinary way of fighting earned them that awe-inspiring title.
While it is very efficient to descend from space to the ground in an attack module and then launch a military operation, it is extremely dangerous to do so.
After all, in the process of airborne landing from a high-altitude orbit, the attack module will rub against the atmosphere in the middle of the way, resulting in unbearable high temperatures for ordinary people, and in the end, it will also shock due to hitting the ground, so most ordinary people will die directly.
Although the members of the Hell Paratroopers don't care about this, there are still people who have died for these reasons in some operations.
As a result, the Hell paratroopers have always wanted to upgrade their defensive equipment, but unfortunately the UNSC has devoted its main energy to the construction of warships.
However, at the end of a meal, Xia Houlin inadvertently mentioned that he had designed the relevant armored suit. The commander of the Hell paratroopers immediately came to the door.
So after obtaining the consent of the higher-ups, Xiahoulin mobilized a lot of resources and manpower, and began to use the technology of other planes in his hands to start the research of Hell Paratrooper armor.
Just as Xiahoulin was about to speak again, on the other side of the hill in the distance, there was a continuous explosion sound, followed by the cheers of the crowd.
"What kind of experiment is going on over there, and it's such a big movement?" Xia Houlin looked curiously at another experimental field not far away, because of the obstruction of the hills. Therefore, standing on this side, it is impossible to see what is happening on the other side.
"Doctor, it seems that a combat robot test is being carried out in the experimental field over there, and the person in charge is your wife!" The female researcher opened her mouth to say for Xia Houlin, and when she said this, there was a look of envy in her eyes that could not be concealed.
It turned out that the small reconnaissance plane from the world of "Elysium" in Qiu Yue's hand had gained the attention of the military. Therefore, not long after coming to Zhiyuanxing, this small reconnaissance aircraft was mass-produced by the factory here.
Now a large number of small reconnaissance aircraft are beginning to enter service with the UNSC's troops. Provide first-hand reconnaissance information for soldiers on the battlefield.
Later, with the help of the research equipment here, Akizuki proposed to develop combat robots for auxiliary combat. This allows these robots to carry heavy support firepower and play a role in auxiliary environments such as urban areas.
The Marine Corps is very interested in this and is fully committed to supporting this project. So Qiu Yue is now fully researching robots, in fact, it is to use this opportunity to integrate and study the technology obtained by those planes before.
As for Laxis's research, it is currently classified as the most classified project at the UNSC. Therefore, Xiahou Lin and Qiu Yue have not seen each other for more than a month.
"You go back and sort out the materials first, and I'll go over and see the situation over there." After saying this, Xia Houlin walked directly towards the experimental field where Qiu Yue was.
