Chapter 194: Alternative Methods
The western coast of the Central Continent was attacked by giants, and the Beiwu Empire was the first to sit still, and they immediately sent their troops to fortify the important towns in the north, no one expected that the giants would run so far in the gap between the Beiwu Empire and the Central Mountain Range.
This giant attack brought a shock to everyone in the Central Continent. Originally, the western coast was the most stable area outside of the Cullinan Empire, after all, there were powerful armies stationed in the Western Continent, but seven places were attacked overnight, and seven large strongholds had been destroyed by giants. The losses overnight are incalculable, and all of a sudden, the door of Lengyun Mountain is wide open, and it may become the next place to be attacked at any time. But now that there are no people in the hands of Baizhan, and most of the troops are deployed in the south, it is still a problem to mobilize them back.
Although two marine divisions were organized with newcomers, the armor was still insufficient. In the face of giants, the main weapon is still the most reliable armor, especially in the face of such a large-scale giant attack, the number of alien giants is absolutely indispensable, the number of armor is at least a hundred, and the production of a hundred armor still needs to be controlled by a soldier.
The problem was in front of him.
"What do we do with such a big gap? We can't keep up with the pace of our own production! β
Bai Zhan said in a low voice: "I know you can't keep up, but now we have to consider that we have to find a way to fill these loopholes, if we can produce a batch of Yan-type weapons that ordinary people can also control and operate, can we relieve the pressure of the battle?" β
"Ordinary people open armor? How is this possible? β
"This kind of armor is similar to a tank, it uses fuel. We are currently working on the development of artificial armor cores, and before building artificial armor cores, I would like to make some mechanical power units, and make some mechs that can probably reach the level of second-generation armor to fill the gap in the front line. This army is what we call a 'mobile armoured' force. Although the flexibility and combat effectiveness are certainly not as good as the Yanjia troops in our hands, the mecha is easy to maintain, and only skilled workers are needed to maintain it. The production of such a batch was first placed in the south, and the southern Yanjia was transferred to the northwest. β
"Is this possible?" Vivien asked, a little worried.
Ning Huang said very seriously: "With the Yanjia technology we have now, the use of mecha technology is mature, and some mecha can certainly fight if the technology of the five generations of Yanjia is produced." The combat data indicators of these mechs can be lowered even more, and they are not expected to fight against giants like Yanjia. Mecha can't use martial arts, but if ordinary combat can be achieved, we pay more attention to some weapons and equipment, and it is okay to reach the level of second-and-a-half-generation or even quasi-third-generation Yanjia. β
Bai Zhan's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Then we will make the first batch of experimental products based on the Striker-level Yan Armor, codenamed 'Iron Soldier'." In the number of ten, the design of the pronuclear and armor compartments was canceled. Converted into a fixed cabin with additional electronic equipment. and armament. The original structure of the mecha is the original design. We added a cannon specifically for giants to the original nucleus. Take the design mechanism of the tank gun! β
Ning Huang nodded and said, "Then, let's try!" β
Originally, the Striker class was a ready-made design, but this modification is different from the past, the mecha skeleton is retained, the design of the power furnace is canceled, and the transmission design of the pure mecha is modified. Baizhan is very bold in this idea, but it is also very worth a try, Baizhan is not worried about the success of the technology, after all, many parts of the mecha can be produced by themselves, and after the computer recalculated, on the basis of not making too many changes in the striker class, the new iron soldier soon appeared, the iron soldier does not consider the flexibility of fighting, so the armor does not use skin technology, but a pure armor structure. The thickness of the front armor has been greatly increased, and the wedge-shaped armor has been increased. The armor cabin was changed into an integrated warehouse, the first is to reduce costs, and the second is to facilitate maintenance, loading and unloading. The advantage of the integrated compartment is that the space is wide, it can hold more electronic equipment, and there is an additional fire cabin in the back, and the fire cabin is expanded and raised in the position of the original nuclear cabin. An optional turret was also installed on it. The high bulge was covered by a lot of armor, the original head was canceled and occupied by the fire capsule, and the radar was placed in the shoulder position. The observation sensor has a rotatable head that used to be replaced by a fixed camera structure on the sides and back of the neck. This reduces the cost a lot at once. Pathfinder A feels like a human.
And the Iron Soldiers have completely turned to mobile armored weapons. Because it is the structure of the armor plate, the body is square, and on top of it is a 225 mm caliber twin tank gun. The newer mecha power engine is also used on this, and the squad leader's design is a steel monster, which is produced very quickly due to the rough craftsmanship. It doesn't need to be as laborious as the skinning technique, and the smooth and round parts of the surface are reduced, which is the kind of rough mining welding and screwing.
As quickly as possible, this armor can be formed as quickly as possible......
Although the methods studied by Bai Zhan and Ning Huang were rough, the ten crosses produced allowed soldiers to learn to drive, and they had already mastered it in just a few days. The first batch of Iron Soldier Mechs did not go directly to the battlefield, but were sent to the south as a deterrent force, and then replaced the armor and Yan Armor.
In the space of a month, the resistance on the western continent had almost lost its counterattack, leaving only the southern RhΓ΄ne, Elmira and Nabitz to resist desperately. Among them, the defense of Elmira is supported by the all-weather air support of the Lengyun Mountain Air Force. Otherwise, Elmira is bound to collapse across the board.
In the boot camp, Anna, who has been speeding up her training, is taking over new equipment. Although the armor has joined, the number of five generations of Yanjia is destined not to be too much. But the number of new mecha iron soldiers can be equipped in large quantities, and the appearance of iron soldiers made Anna very surprised, she really didn't expect that Baizhan could directly simplify the production of such cheap and low-end mecha weapons in the fifth generation of Yanjia technology, because there is no armor core, there is no need for Yuantai design. The bones are produced together with the root armor, and the parts of the armor are still common to the mecha in many places, so the maintenance of the front line is simply not easier. The design of the mecha is very rough, focusing on two points, solid and cheap. β
Compared to tanks, this mech is more suitable for combat, but it is not as fast to produce as a tank. After all, the mecha still needs the installation of some electronic equipment, and the production of the mecha iron soldier begins in general. The 103rd and 104th recruit divisions had completely different training and technical requirements than the other two divisions.
The 103rd Strike Division was the first airborne division, and the 103rd Airborne Division was equipped with artillery that could parachute. and light vehicles that can parachute. And the 103 Airborne Division's individual weapons are also the best, the guns are all using the special 20 mm caliber anti-giant rifle "War Eagle" modified from the cannons on the aircraft, this rifle can be disassembled, the barrel is disassembled when parachuting, and it can be installed after landing, in addition to the barrel, wood and special light metal are used as much as possible, and the bullet is also a special ammunition with a giant virus.
In addition, it is equipped with a Type 100 Type 2 parachute anti-giant machine gun. These weapons are also as light as possible when ensuring the firepower of the ammunition, and these guns are also urgently modified on the basis of the original, although they are emergency products, but for the establishment of the defense line of Zhongbei Mountain, it should be enough.
As for the other 104th Strike Division, this is a new mecha division, and the artillery of this division has been canceled in Hundred Battles, based on the three major sports firepower of tanks, armored vehicles, and mechs. The early mecha division was only equipped with thirty mechas, mechas, which is also the limit of production. Another 90 additional planes were sent up little by little with the later supplies, and as soon as the training of the recruit division was over, this unit was sent to Lengyun Mountain as soon as possible!! Baizhan knows that time waits for no one, and once the situation in Elmira collapses, Leng Yunshan will definitely suffer!
So now it's a race against time to turn two recruit divisions into combat effectiveness before danger arrives!
