Chapter 3 Soldier on
By the time Su arrived in Dragon City, all the equipment he needed had been prepared and delivered to the designated warehouse. The value of this batch of materials is not 80,000, but 110,000. Persephone vouched for Sue with her creditworthiness, so that he got the balance in advance, and although Persephone's current credit was close to complete bankruptcy, it was more than enough to guarantee the final payment of 30,000.
The final payment obtained in advance allowed Su to buy ten more sets of benchmark bulletproof vests in addition to the six-round "Bronze Dragon" shoulder-launched multi-purpose missiles produced by the Dark Dragoon technology. Although these bulletproof vests are simple, they are lined with light alloys, which will greatly increase the chances of survival for Su's soldiers.
The list of all equipment was drawn up by Persephone's Personal Operations Staff. According to the information sent back by Su, they preliminarily analyzed the equipment and firepower composition of the blue scorpion, and gave a list of targeted equipment.
In addition to handing over the corpse of a Blue Scorpion warrior and a sample of a complete set of equipment to Persephone's private office, Sue also deposited an additional 5,000 yuan into her account. If it weren't for the need to buy as many arms as possible to deal with the Blue Scorpion, Su might have added a zero to the repayment. But this is also his current limit, as a dragoon, Su's own equipment is still far from a private.
As soon as the task was completed, Su immediately rushed to the dragoon armament warehouse to collect the equipment. Under Persephone's command, he applied for and received the task of keeping the Blue Scorpion out of the Dark Dragoon's core control area, with the additional task of scouting the location of the Blue Scorpion's forward base.
When Sue arrived, Quinn was already waiting for the warehouse door. The man, who had always seemed a little mysterious, did not wait for the results of Penny's treatment in the hospital, but chose to follow Sue in battle. In his words, Penny can only rely on luck now, but Sue needs enough strength at the moment. What's more, Quinn bought himself a communicator, and as soon as Penny has news, he can know it as soon as he can.
"Boss!" Quinn greeted Soda from a distance, and he preferred a wildly vulgar title to his master, which Sue acquiesced in.
Beside Quinn, there was also a dagoon officer with a gloomy face, looking at the two short swords at his cuffs, the rank was one level higher than Sue. However, Su came out of the Curtis training camp and had a special military rank, and in terms of actual authority, he was not smaller than a lieutenant, and Cheng Dรน, who was valued and noted, was much higher than an ordinary lieutenant.
"This is Lieutenant Enzo of the Dragoon Headquarters. There are a lot of things you bought this time, especially those 'Bronze Dragon' missiles, which are not things that can be played casually. So the headquarters sent Lieutenant Enzo to teach our fighters how to use these guys! When Quinn introduced Enzo, he was as enthusiastic as an old friend who had known him for a long time, much to Sue's surprise.
"Nice to meet you." Sue held out her hand to Enzo.
As soon as Enzo and Sue's hands touched, they retracted, and it was just a polite handshake, and said, "But I'm very unhappy, because this time it's a battlefield teaching." โ
"Battlefield teaching?" It was the first time Sue had heard the word.
Quinn interjected and said with a smile: "The so-called battlefield teaching is to teach our fighters how to use the 'Bronze Dragon' missile in actual combat. Alright, Lieutenant Enzo, now it's time for us to go for a drink, and as for you, boss, let's get down to business first! The people I chose for you are already waiting in the camp outside Dragon City, and they are all good boys, and they have been looking forward to these equipment! By the way, sir, when you have money, you must remember to treat me to a drink. โ
Looking at the departing figures of Quinn and Enzo, Sue shook her head. Quinn seems to have been born with this ability, and can quickly mingle with anyone, even in Dragon City. In just two days, he not only completed a series of tedious things such as registration, authority handling and equipment purchase, but also became good friends with the relevant handling personnel. This Lieutenant Enzo sent by the Dragon City Headquarters was a difficult person to get along with at first glance, and in the short time before Sue's arrival, he was actually able to drink with Quinn.
Su smiled and began to watch the staff load boxes of counted equipment into the truck. Dealing with people has never been his forte, and he has let it go.
The two heavy transports at the entrance of the warehouse were also borrowed from Persephone, and although they were required to pay rent, they were at least half cheaper than renting them from the armaments department.
Looking at the boxes of equipment, Su couldn't help but sigh with emotion. It only took five days to draw up the program, order the equipment, pick up the equipment, and distribute the training. This is the power of the herd, the wisdom of the herd. If he was the only one to do this, if nothing else, Su would never buy those ten assault rifles alone. He has always liked to use sniper rifles, and has a strange aversion to assault rifles. When he thinks about it, it's just his subconscious prejudice, and Sue always feels like a great waste of the assault rifle that rains bullets.
Su knew very little about the characteristics of the equipment in the new era, and he didn't know what the role of those armor, kits, and assemblies was that of those models.
Quinn provided 20 carefully selected fighters, including 1 sniper and 2 fire support fighters, as well as a medics. They were all old subordinates who had followed Quinn for many years, predators who walked across the corpses of the mob. This group of warriors was Quinn's last gift to Sue, but Sue would be responsible for all their expenses from now on.
Trucks soon arrived at a makeshift camp outside Longcheng and distributed the equipment of 20 people in an orderly manner. The soldiers in the camp were all veterans, and they knew that there would be a big battle to be fought soon, so they all suppressed the excitement of getting a complete set of new-age equipment, and read the instructions of the equipment. Although the instructor arranged by the Dragoon in the evening would explain to them again how to use the equipment, they knew that time was of the essence. The more you know about the weapon's performance, the more chances you have to survive.
In the evening, Quinn, Enzo, and two training instructors arrived at the camp. To Sue's surprise, Enzo was not wearing a dragoon's uniform, but a combat suit, and the four-barreled empty magazine on his back was particularly eye-catching. As a Lieutenant of the Dark Dragoon, Enzo also had his own rapid-fire pistol, range-enhanced assault rifle, and corresponding ammunition. Originally, Enzo had his own armed off-road vehicle, but he chose to move with the troops.
The so-called battlefield teaching is actually tantamount to support in disguise. The use of the "Bronze Dragon" missile is very simple, and an hour of instruction is enough for an ordinary fighter to master its use. However, like the equipment produced by the Qiฤ Dragoon, the most accurate tracking method of this missile is to visually lock onto the target through special goggles, which requires the user to have a fairly high level of perception and reaction ability, which is simply not something that ordinary soldiers can master.
When he unpacked it, Su was surprised to see that the "Bronze Dragon" missile was only 70 centimeters long and about 10 centimeters in diameter, and the launch bracket was also very light, less than 10 kilograms. If you look at it alone, you really can't see that this little thing actually has an effective range of 10 kilometers and can attack air targets below 2,000 meters. Relying on the knowledge of the old era, the "Bronze Dragon" should not be able to penetrate the armor of the main battle tank, and Su was deeply impressed by the protection of the Blue Scorpion tank, which was only an infantry fighting vehicle with the ability to transport troops, not the main battle vehicle. However, just like the gun that the captain gave Sue, the technology of the Dark Dragoon cannot be measured by the standards of the old era.
After a night of training and recuperation, the freshmen team took two trucks and headed northwest.
Sue sat in the cab of the truck in front of her, resting with her eyes closed. A heavy machine gun was mounted on top of the cab of the truck, and a fighter was looking around vigilantly. In fact, his nervousness was a little superfluous, this was the core control area of the Dark Dragoon, and there was a lieutenant of the Dark Dragoon sitting in a car behind him. Although Enzo did not display any extraordinary skills, his rank of lieutenant was indicative.
During the short journey, Sukie fell asleep and began to dream. This time, the dream is no longer a sea of green that remains the same, but a burning city!
The city is full of fires. Some fires are real, while others are dark fires with only shadows. In the dark fire, Su saw many weeping and sobbing faces, all of them distorted and painful. Several buildings were blazing, and open flames rose into the sky, and flames erupted from the windows that could reach several meters away. However, in the same building, the dark fire erupted even higher, and from time to time a distorted human face detached from the dark fire, as if pulled by an invisible thread, and kept flying upwards until it disappeared into the thick radiation cloud.
The city was littered with corpses. Most of the corpses were men in their prime of life, most of them died on both sides of the road, many with weapons, but the horrified look on their faces did not disappear until they died. Still others died in combat positions. Among the dead were the elderly, women and children.
Faint screams can still be heard in the city, stretching endlessly, and I don't know where they came from.
Strangely, people can also be seen walking around the streets. It's just that their images are thin and blurry, and everyone's faces are blank, looking around, as if they don't know where they are. Occasionally, they would walk past the corpses strewn across the streets, and their feet could be seen completely submerged in the corpses, and then pulled out unharmed, and the process of walking was not hindered at all.
An eye-catching building in the center of the city is also constantly spewing flames outward, and the flames spewed out from the windows flickered on and off, forming a lifelike pattern! That's a crying face!
Su woke up suddenly, only to feel wet and cold, and it turned out that he had unconsciously broken out in a cold sweat! He looked at the time and it turned out that he had only slept for three minutes. However, unlike in the past, this time the dream remained clearly in the memory. http:///
