On 18 October, reinforcements led by Overmars arrived as scheduled. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 After years of rehabilitation, the seven fleets he brought with him looked like they had returned to the same appearance they had when they set out on the expedition. Comparatively speaking, the three fleets of Hongxiang, Tang Long, and Situ Jianghai on my side are too shabby. But these are superficial lights - most of the weapons and equipment in all the warships have been dismantled, and there is basically no combat effectiveness, and the purpose is to transport a large number of machinery, supplies and essential soldiers needed here. A total of 430,000 soldiers were transported, of which 410,000 were mine, and Overmars had only 20,000. The number of soldiers was so large that it took nearly a week to complete the landings at Gonggong Fortress, Fellre and Selmo.

We were so busy with things that we couldn't wait for the soldiers to slowly get off the boat and settle down, so we started the core discussion. First of all, according to Hongxiang's intentions, the principle of limited support for Yang Husheng's rebellion was determined. Because there is really no battle to fight in the cosmic battlefield now, but the soldiers, equipment, and machinery in the rear need to be transported in large quantities, in order to ensure this task, Ovimas and my family's fleet basically have to shuttle on the road to transport goods non-stop, and when they are too busy, they have to rent civilian interstellar cargo ships, it is impossible to have too many forces to stay by Yang Husheng's side to help him fight after returning, and there are not enough resources to upgrade the Chen Xiangda guard fleet that transports him, at best, to determine the situation of cooperation between the two of them, Moderately armed with the planetary guard fleet.

Then the issue of the distribution of the army was discussed. At present, the military system on the surface of Nebuchu was formulated by Jiang Xu, which is very different from the military system of the Nebuchu front army, but Simba was very interested when he learned that a large number of indigenous troops who could use firearms and did not need to worry too much about the dead and wounded, so he agreed to hold a special meeting on this issue to study the transformation of the military system. In the middle of this, Overmars's 20,000 troops are troublesome, not much, but they are quite in the way. However, he put on a high posture in this regard, saying: "The current Nebuchu base area is all fought by the blood and sacrifice of General Huang You's subordinates, and the territory of this province is not in these places, of course, it is necessary to open up the base area by itself." These people will be organized into an independent division of the Nebuchu Front, and if they want to be used, just inform me in advance. ”

That being said, who would sit on an army of 560,000 and dictate to his 20,000? Overmars was so generous this time that I, as a landlord, was a little embarrassed, and took the initiative to propose whether I needed Simba or Jiang Xu to cooperate with them to open up a base area. Overmars shook his head proudly and said: "This time it is not unprepared, our army has been equipped with some super weapons, and for this purpose, we have specially sacrificed the establishment and funds of the two guard fleets. These things will be shipped to Verle for assembly and commissioning the next day, and everyone can take a look if they are interested! ”

After the meeting, I asked Simba, "What is Overmars's super weapon?" ”

Simba looked at me inexplicably and said, "Ask me what I'm doing, didn't you give people the idea to develop it in the first place?" ”

When did I switch to building mobile suits again? At that moment, his face sank and he said: "Wukong, this pavilion is not the kind of person who can type out a military OS with a keyboard in a minute. Even if I had that ability, I wouldn't have that time now. Huo Shuxiang said very clearly in the report, tell me what you know. ”

"Huang Er, you're old, and your memory is really bad. Ovimars told me that this idea was really from your late Granny Zhang Ning! In the early sixties, Honda Heavy Industries conducted research on the MK-3 improved manned walking weapon, but it was stopped because of great technical difficulties and lack of funds. You had nothing to do with bragging to Granny Zhang about the kind of things in ancient science fiction novels, which aroused Granny Zhang's great interest, and personally asked the Samsung General Administration to allocate a small amount of research and development expenses to Honda Heavy Industries, so Honda Heavy Industries resumed the plan, and added some inexplicable designs according to Granny Zhang's instructions, and renamed the research project 'metalgear', referred to as MG. That's probably when the sparks started. ”

I opened the door of memories and explored for a long time, and finally found a trace of memories, and said with a wry smile: "Why is it related to me again, it seems that all the bad things are done by me?" Wasn't it okay at that time, in addition to reading Internet cafes and reading idle books on Lelondo all day long, the concept of 'Gundam' was seen in the science fiction novels of the previous generation. I also cared about Honda Heavy Industries' research for a while, and found that they only managed to walk at 1.5 kilometers per hour on a smooth road and then didn't care anymore. Why, all of a sudden, there was a breakthrough? ”

"Times have changed a lot, and now the main star has entered the eighties, but Huang Er, your brain is still fresh in the sixties." Simba rolled his eyes and said, "When you told Granny Zhang about this, it was still when you recaptured Alpha - six or six years?" How many years has the 301st Management Committee been suppressed? You can dig something out of the dirt. I won't tell you more, it's amazing anyway. Tomorrow they assemble it for testing and see for themselves. ”

October 20 is a day of celebration for reinforcements, and the capital of the mainland of Flle, Nevernight Harbor, is bustling with the influx of reinforcements. The party was held from noon, and in the morning, the New Army, the Feria Army, and the Wood Elf Army were organized by Jiang Xu, Hong Wushuang, and Chang Hantian and others. The human legion led by Hong Wushuang is just neat, and it's not a big deal, and everyone's clamor is mostly aimed at her appearance. But when he saw his former sworn enemy walking past the audience in a neat queue, even Overmars couldn't help but applaud enthusiastically, turned to me and said, "Huang Er, you have a set." I nodded slightly, smiling at his compliment.

Finally, the wood elf team led by Jiang Xu entered the exercise. When the new soldiers saw these elves with graceful bodies and delicate faces, their military discipline was immediately corrupted, and they scrambled to whistle. Considering that they had been suffocated during the months of astronautics, the pickets did not specifically stop this, but only took away a few ruffians who wanted to jump in and misbehave. The performance went very smoothly so far, and the response was very good, until the moment when the ground shook.

The playground shook suddenly, and a heavy metal crash could be heard in the distance. There was some chaos in the arena suddenly, and the Wood Elves in the exercise stopped and began to exchange words. Overmars smiled slightly, turned to me and said, "MG's testing machines have been successfully assembled, let them come and show you?" ”

It would be too unkind to say such a thing, can I still object to it?

Before the appearance of the super weapons of the Overmars shogunate, rumors about them had been spread throughout the audience. Some of those who heard it were disapproving, some were sincerely afraid, and some military fans who were overjoyed to hear of any high-level murder weapon. However, after the MG squadron appeared, the words of those joking "Transformers" and "Skyhawk Warriors" were all stuck in the throat of the right and wrong who broadcast rumors with their voices. Even though there is no shortage of sci-fi lovers among us, these things that suddenly appear around us are also amazing.

There are a total of five MG squadrons entering the field, and the shape is similar, probably just a slight difference caused by the different external weapons. It is approximately thirty meters high and is controlled by a human pilot hidden inside the fuselage. The cluster rocket system and the 220 cannon behind it are something that even a fool can see. When I looked at this thing, I felt a slight chill in my heart, and even began to think about whether it was the right choice to not take the high-tech route and retro cold weapon troops. Glancing at Hongxiang and Simba in the distance, they all shook their heads, and I felt a little at ease. Ovimas suddenly said, "With such an army, it is enough to conquer Nebuchu, right?" ”

I shook my head and said, "Regardless of the actual effectiveness, the number is still a little small, and Your Excellency will not dare to amplify words with just a few iron bumps." ”

Overmars smiled and said: "Because of the rush of time, only five squadrons have been brought so far, but one hundred and twenty squadrons have been ordered from Honda Heavy Industries, which must be enough." ”

One hundred and twenty squadrons? I closed my eyes and thought about the six hundred steel behemoths that were rampaging through the land of Nebuchu, but I still couldn't believe it. The previous land combat robot MK-3 did not have an individual advantage in the face of the Feria keel soldiers, and when encountering experienced dragon keel soldiers, they would be destroyed by the opponent if they couldn't even let go of a shot.

After urgent consultations with Jiang Xu, the officers under Overmars decided to conduct an on-site exercise, saying that they would only use conventional firepower exercises, without weapons of mass destruction, and use 400 keel soldiers led by Chang Hatian to face the MG of this squadron. All of the Feria warriors below the Long Hate were replaced with paint gloves, and the MG itself was only loaded with drill shells. After the confirmation of the two sides, the exercise began.

After confronting and fighting side by side with humans many times, the tactical thinking of the long-hated sky has changed greatly, and he no longer uses dense formations to rush indiscriminately as before. The MG squadron in front of him is obviously extremely powerful, and rushing like that is equivalent to sending it to the door for people to harvest. It divided its 400 men into four teams, all in loose formation, with one frontal assault and two flanks to outflank, with its own team on standby. After this simple tactic was used, it actually surprised the human army officers, and it was rumored that Jiang Xu violated the secrecy ordinance and passed on the advanced tactics to the former enemy chieftain. Jiang Xu couldn't tell the difference, so he had to turn around and sigh helplessly to me twice. I knew in my heart that this was something that Chang Hatian had figured out by himself, but I was also quite moved to see the actual situation, so that I quickly wandered and thought about the future - Feria is a high-level biological race on one side after all, although there are many internal imbalances, and there are stupid people like Coulson, but it seems that there are no fewer capable people, and they will definitely fight more and more in large-scale battles in the future......

A violent metal clang pulled me back to reality. Looking up, Chang Hate Tian had already begun to personally lead the charge of the team. The first three teams to attack were all killed by the white paint bullets, and their own team was wiped out by three-quarters of the way to the charge. The Feria soldiers who were declared dead seemed very unconvinced, and although they were beaten all over their heads covered with white paint, many of them were still eager to continue fighting, and they were stopped by the overseers arranged by Jiang Xu one by one and sat on the ground to die. Chang Hate Tian only led a dozen people to rush in front of MG and tried to attack, but he repeatedly flashed MG in a flexible posture.

In fact, the MG squadron had completely wiped out the long-hated forces in a minute with conventional fire. Because it was just a drill, there was no actual loss of troops, and Chang Hatetian, who wanted to regain face, could still grit his teeth and insist on attacking, trying to hit a hundred points on a certain MG to prove that he also had a record of destroying MG, so as not to be too ashamed. However, at this moment, the situation is that five steel beasts are jumping and teasing around the dozen poor Ferians! I couldn't stand it anymore, so I waved my hand and said, "That's it, it's over!" ”

The cluster rocket system and the 220 cannon are not yet useful, and they are already working like this! I looked at the officers around me, some were excited and happy, some were dark, in short, they had different thoughts, different faces, as one of the leaders of the human race, I naturally had to be different from everyone else, and the only choice was to be expressionless. After thinking for a while, he asked Overmars, "It's expensive, isn't it?" ”

"Indeed, the cost of two fleets, when converted, exceeds the cost of an ordinary frigate and is close to a destroyer. Because it has to fight in the atmosphere and on the land surface, the subsequent ammunition and logistical maintenance costs are probably higher than those of destroyers. Overmars nodded and said, "But the two fleets obviously do not play a role in the land combat phase, and the MG of one hundred and twenty squadrons is completely different." ”

His tone was not so much smug as there was an element of contempt for young people who had made mistakes. I listened to the secret fire, but I still replied with a sinking face: "It's really an eye-opener to see you today, and I'm really looking forward to their performance!" However, I personally still appreciate the crowd tactics more, the economy is cost-effective, and the scene is magnificent, haha, haha! ”

"Huang Er, I appreciate your eclectic behavior and employment style." Overmars also smiled: "Such as Kintaro, Simba, Jiang Xu and other notorious people, they have all been used by you to enter the list of famous generals, and this alone can also be passed down in history." But ......"

At this point, he deliberately paused his words. I couldn't help but turn my head to look at him, and he said, "Although the move of surrendering the Feria army is appalling, it is not difficult to understand in the end. However, some people have reported to me that in addition to the Feria soldiers and the indigenous soldiers recruited by Nebuchu, there are also some alien creatures in your house, or rather, otherworldly species? ”

His voice became softer and softer, as if to tempt me to answer a "yes", but I did not satisfy him, and said bluntly: "Hearsay is not enough to believe, this pavilion has always been pure and noble, and I do not despise the company of evil spirits. Didn't SD and the Roman Order behind it root the Pavilion? ”

Hearing me say this, Overmars let out a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's the best." I firmly believe that the comrades-in-arms who came together are trustworthy and reliable, and those rumors are naturally not credible! However, even if I talk too much, I would like to remind you that although GDI no longer exists, the original principle of independent self-preservation has not disappeared with it. We must be innocent and cautious in dealing with others, remember not to have contact with otherworldly forces, and beware of losing everything if we are not careful, and then we will be ruined, but what is the reason for the suffering? In fact, with time and patience now, victory is not a matter of chance? ”

I said lightly: "Your Excellency has been overly worried, this cabinet has never had such a speculative mentality of rushing for success and profit. ”

"Hehe, it's for your own good, I hope you don't have other ideas." Ovimas sighed and said, "I don't know how long the battle on the surface of Nebuchu will take, in this race war, will our military and economic strength really be able to fight the Feriyas?" Your side has a good battle in the early stage, and I have a sharp weapon like MG on my side, and the theory of quick victory is very loud, but I never believe in that. The civilian officials boast that the false figures and targets are all fake, and you and I, who have led the troops to fight for many years, will not fail to see the actual situation. In case the war is going to be fought for ten or twenty years, and you are in the prime of life and can still see the day it ends, I am not necessarily, so who is it for your good? ”

I smiled and said, "Your Excellency's caring heart has been understood. However, things are developing and changing, and who can explain the things of ten or twenty years? I remember that the Chinese people in the early stage of the ancient industrial revolution, from the common people to the high-ranking officials of the imperial court, saw a foreigner with blond hair and blue eyes like Your Excellency, and they all called it a demon and a monster, so as to avoid it. But I don't know that since this thing exists, avoiding it can't be avoided after all, and the more you close the door and cover your ears, the more miserable the end will be. Only by facing it head-on and turning it into one's own interests is the best policy. The so-called self-cleansing and self-preservation are said to prevent the disgrace of oneself, and it is better to return it to Your Excellency, and I dare not use it. ”

We talked about it in a fog, and I'm afraid that any clerk to record it would not know what we were talking about, but our hearts were very clear, but it was not to the extent that we could pick out what we were talking about. The miraculous pacification of the southern capital, hundreds of thousands of celestial troops were transported to the front line, and it is impossible for Overmars not to hear anything inside, but he didn't talk to me about it now. However, with MG's performance first, it is obvious that he has a certain amount of confidence, otherwise he would not have said this to me. After listening to my answer, he took a deep breath and said after a long while: "Huang Er, what you said was twenty years ago, but it was a big perverse thing that would immediately be suspended from duty and isolated for review. ”

"GDI is gone, all GDI charters have lost their executors and become waste paper." I spread my hands: "If Your Excellency is speaking to me on behalf of the Global Council, you have to have some ready-made charters, otherwise there are some things that are difficult to say." ”

Overmars sighed and said, "Huang Er, you sent someone to submit a bill to normalize relations with the Celestial Realm at the Global Council back then, and it has already been confirmed, and I am telling you this now, which is to take a preventive shot to prevent you from evolving from a mistake in thought to a mistake in concrete action." It is true that there is no corresponding charter after the collapse of GDI, but since it has not been normalized with that side, this kind of charter will come out sooner or later, and you must not have enough reason to oppose it. ”

I snorted and said, "Ahaha, that's none of my business." I've made it very clear: this pavilion has always been pure and noble, and I don't want to be in the company of evil spirits. ”

After saying this, the air between the two of us suddenly turned cold, and there was no more word. Fortunately, the coldness, estrangement, rift, etc. between the two of us only occurred within a radius of one meter, and did not affect the warm atmosphere of the scene. Despite the defeat of their own side, it was the Feria army that failed, which was less shameful than the defeat of the swordsman regiment, and many people instead enthusiastically discussed what would happen to the demon swordsman regiment when they encountered these guys, what about the Feria army, what about our army to buy some MG, and so on. After the performance, Overmars and his entourage left quickly, and before the MG squadron left, the audience was reluctant to leave, shouting and screaming around. At this time, the long-hating genius squeezed in front of me with hatred and shouted. I didn't understand it anyway, so I just stared at it blankly. After a while, the interpreter, who was squeezed by him, came up and translated the words he repeatedly shouted: "We haven't lost yet, why are you ending!" ”

"Didn't lose?" I shrugged my shoulders: "How so?" ”

Chang Hate Tian put forward two points of view, one is that it obviously took a dozen of the bravest warriors to chisel on MG in the end, and it can obviously defeat at least one, so as not to lose so miserably as now; The second is that this rule is also made in Teraip, why does a Ferian soldier have to chisel a hundred times on MG to score, and MG can kill a Feriat soldier with one shot? According to the history of firefights with human armies, the Feria soldiers were generally able to resist more than 10 frontal shots in the face of human conventional guns and conventional bullets, because the vast majority of shots could not achieve absolute frontal shots with zero angle of incidence, and they slipped to the side on the shell of the body of the Feria soldiers, so they were often able to withstand 20 or even 30 bullets before causing body breakdown casualties. If MG had to hit Feria's soldiers with twenty bullets to be considered casualties, its soldiers would have knocked down the five iron lumps long ago.

Chang hatetian was emotional and spoke quickly, and the translator really couldn't keep up with its rhythm. By the time he had finished translating his words, the audience had already walked away, and only some of the senior officers were still waiting for me to leave before leaving. I stretched out my hand and called them all over, walked into the exercise field together, and asked for a MG exercise cartridge case from the soldiers cleaning the field. Unlike the machine gun with thick arms that many people imagine, MG uses the bullets of the GDI standard standard gun family, so it's no wonder that Chang Hate Tian is not convinced! I gave the shells to Simba and let him read them and pass them on to the other officers. After looking around, he asked, "What is the mystery in it, everyone will talk about it." The elder is not convinced now, you don't buckle your hat and hit the stick, let it be convinced purely from a technical point of view. ”

"Let me start with it, I've been paying attention to MG for a while, and I know a little about it." Simba said: "Instead of using a 50mm cannon, you use a 7.62mm standard bullet, which has the advantage of a much higher ammunition load. You know, this kind of guy is used as a main battle weapon after appearing on the battlefield, and if it takes less than half an hour to load the bullet, it will be disastrous. As far as I know, the MG is designed with the idea that conventional weapons can be used continuously for four hours in conventional combat, and more than half an hour for saturation attacks. To meet this requirement, if you use 50mm machine gun shells, you can only drag a belt several kilometers long behind you, or build the MG several hundred meters high. ”

"It's impossible to put the modern class up to the ground." I smiled: "So it's also a helpless move to use 7.62mm standard bullets, but according to the elder, it takes dozens of shots to knock them over, and the combat effectiveness is too weakened." ”

"The general is knowingly asking, let me answer." Jiang Xu raised the bullet shell in his hand to Chang Hatian's eyes: "Take a closer look, there is a flame demon sign on this, do you see it clearly?" It's the logo of the Missouri Venture Capital Company, and it's clear that the bullet they're using is a special Missouri bullet that cannot be imitated by a global patent. Any of the standard guns can easily penetrate the composite armor of the Kappa cannon with this bullet, and if it is mounted on a special electromagnetic-assisted rifle, it is likely that only a heavy battleship above the cruiser can withstand its close-range fire. Such a bullet is used to fight the Feria soldiers, and it definitely does not need dozens of bullets, but can penetrate five or six with one bullet! The rules are already polite to you to let you be killed with one shot, after all, it is impossible to practice with live ammunition that penetrates several people. ”

"This is not an authentic boutique Missouri bomb, Jiang Xu, you came here a little earlier, and you didn't notice the change." Simba flipped the shell over: "Look, there's a 'lite' logo on the bottom, it's a streamlined production version." But I've seen live performances, and even in this production version, the high-fidelity model of the Feria soldiers can't withstand a single shot, and many of them are pierced by a single shot. ”

After listening to the translator's translation, Chang Hatian snatched the bullet casing and looked at it for a long time, and then asked Jiang Xu a few words in a row: "Did you lie to me?" I waved my hand to make it feel less restful, and said, "The two of them are almost done, and I'll add to that." This rule is not a disadvantage for you. MG's composite armor makes you really break it in a hundred strokes? I'm afraid it's not so tofu scum that dares to take it out to meet people. How many times did you chisel a waste kappa cannon for testing the other day? mg is an upgraded version, and it's not the same. Besides, your 400 men have already been killed, and 3780 of them have not been able to get close to each other, can you have enough military morale and personal courage to fight them again in actual combat? If you lose, you lose, and there is no shame in admitting it. It was MG's advanced equipment that opened my eyes, it was really terrifying. ”

Hongxiang hadn't spoken much since he arrived, when a sentence suddenly popped up: "I think it's a mistake for Overmars to exchange two fleets for MG." ”

My eyes lit up and I asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

"Huang Er, have you used the Missouri bullet?"

I shook my head and said, "No, it's too expensive to use." It's just that I saw the initial version of a shot on the safety glass platform of the military exhibition hall of the Southern National Academy, known as one hundred thousand shots? But now nearly 20 years have passed, and it will probably be much cheaper with mass production. ”

Hongxiang asked rhetorically: "Mass production?" Who uses it? ”

That's the truth. The power of the Missouri bullet is so amazing that the Missouri Venture Capital Company signed a strict confidentiality clause when developing this bullet for GDI, only providing this ammunition to GDI, and at the same time has the right to keep the secret of the design and manufacture of the Missouri bullet, monopolizing this market with basically no customers. Seven or four years ago, Missouri shells even had a unique ID number and a wooden box for each round, which was of exceptional quality and distinctive. But since the annual production and sales volume is less than 1,000 rounds, and it is too expensive to die, it is also a matter of making the quality perfect. Now it is estimated that it is impossible to number each bullet - the burst of five MGs on Chang Hatian and others is estimated to have shot the entire production of the Missouri Venture Capital Company in the entire fifties. However, MG has officially equipped the Missouri bomb, which shows that it cannot be the same god price back then, and no matter how rich Ovemas is, he will not knock out a Hyundai-class in a few hours.

Simba said: "It's a lot cheaper, but it's still expensive to death." After Ovimas negotiated with them personally, the Missouri Venture Capital Company reluctantly relented and offered the current cheap model, which was still much more expensive than ordinary shells. And as far as I know, the Missouri company was not happy with the deal, and was somewhat forced to accept the order. There has been no market for Missouri bombs for a long time, and although they have been developed with high precision, the cost has never been reduced. ”

"I've done the math." Jiang Xu, who has the characteristics of a super profiteer, followed: "At least 5,000 rounds of ammunition were fired just now, although they are exercise bullets, but the exercise bullets from Missouri are also very expensive, they are purely to show us that they are rich and rich - it is estimated that they have already hit 1.8 million in the past one or two minutes just now." ”

In this way, the logistical replenishment of MG is a very difficult and costly problem. Knowing this, I felt a little wider in my heart, and said to Chang Hattian: "It's all clear, don't be unconvinced, there are naturally other ways to control them, and if you can't beat them with traditional methods, you can't beat them." Didn't I call an emergency stop for your own good? Those five mg are jumping around you, and if you are trampled by a 'mistake', don't I have Feria as a leader? ”

Chang hated Tian heard the joy behind the translator, I nodded at him and said, "That's right, you have done a good job in the past few months, from now on you will be the commander of Feria under my government, and the internal affairs of Feria outside the military affairs will be decided by you." (To be continued.) )
