ACT545: Capture captives

After the Battle of Mars officially began, with about 1.5 million German ground troops landing on the continental United States, the U.S. military soon divided three main theaters according to the distribution of enemy landing sites.

The U.S. forces tried to take advantage of their superiority in strength to encircle and annihilate the enemy at the landing point at the beginning of the German army's unstable foothold, but the enemy's strength far exceeded their expectations. At the beginning of the ground war, the American GIs learned the power of German reformers!

After several years of research and improvement, the human modification technology in Germany is now largely mature. Not only has the success rate of modulation been significantly improved, but the "service life" of soldiers has also been greatly extended. As long as regular maintenance is maintained, it can be increased from the initial two hours to two years.

In order to be able to smoothly advance the offensive at the beginning of the attack, the Germans threw all of their 2,000 reformed soldiers into battle, and a total of 14 teams were able to parachute to the ground for a battalion of 100 men. Their primary targets are airfields and transportation hubs, and the U.S. garrison simply can't withstand these monsters.

After the invading German army had these positions, the air force and armored units landed one after another, and then used them as a forward base to launch attacks on key targets in the vicinity. Under the cover of "Stuka" and "Messerschmitt", the German mecha that was intensively used was like a sharp knife, quickly and accurately tearing through the defense line of the American army, allowing the war to spread like an infection!

It is worth mentioning that the U.S. Army was very passive in the face of the German flood of armored clusters. Their research in the field of "anti-armor weapons" is very backward, or they do not feel that they need to develop a special anti-aircraft gun to deal with armored machine crews.

Because the protection level of early mechs was very low, most of the armor was less than 20mm thick to ensure mobility, and could only defend against conventional rifle ammunition. This made the American GIs think for a while that as long as they had a little M2 heavy machine gun, it would be enough to kill these "tin cans" suddenly!

But this idea of the Americans received its first blow when Germany blitzed Poland.

At that time, the German army put into use two new armored units, III and IV. The thickness of the front armor was enough to ignore ammunition of caliber below 20mm. The Americans, who had just woken up from a dream, hurriedly took the British and German two types of anti-aircraft guns as prototypes, and copied the M1 and M3, two towed anti-aircraft guns.

Therefore, in the early days of the war, the US military, which focused on defense, was very passive. However, after all, they are fighting on their own soil, and they have the advantage of troops, and they have not lost their air supremacy and space supremacy. War is like an efficient meat grinder, devouring thousands of lives at an astonishing rate!

At the same time, on the other side, the Star Fort side was taking the opportunity to digest the gains of the previous war against Japan, and the Zhao ship was preparing to come to a wave of "big construction" to further expand the scale of the fleet under his command.

During the battle against Japan in May, the Starfort fleet sank and captured a total of 18 Japanese warships. The losses of their side were only 2 heavy cruisers and 2 destroyers.

After the battle, Zhao gave priority to repairing his damaged warships, and built two cutting-edge large cruisers based on the Dalian class as a model to replace the Spanish twins.

These two large cruisers, codenamed "Gemini class", have a standard displacement of 11,000 tons, are equipped with three triple 240mm main guns, and the Dalian class can be used in ammunition, and have the dual advantages of firepower and rate of fire in the face of the main heavy cruisers of various countries. The secondary artillery is four twin 135mm anti-aircraft guns, and the front, middle and rear groups have a total of 9 phalanxes. Central 4x4, 16-tube vertical torpedo.

Such frenzied firepower, coupled with the combat power bonus brought by other black technology equipment, made Jiana and Ali very satisfied with the new hull. So the two sisters reciprocated the favor and accepted the new ship on the same night. He wrapped his fruit body with a ribbon and sent it into the admiral's bed as a "thank you gift".

After inspecting the captured Divine Cores, Zhao Jian first resurrected the other 10 Divine Cores except for the Musashi according to Thor's construction. These shipwives are awakened. Like Kaga, I find it difficult to accept the fact that I have "changed hands".

It wasn't until King Kong came forward to make a statement that the commotion subsided.

Interestingly. Among these shipwives, the ones with the strongest ability to accept the current status quo are the heavy patrol Atago and the battleship Mutsu. At present, Atago has been able to determine that the predecessor of the other party is indeed the Duke Suvorov, which was captured by the Japanese army in the Russo-Japanese War and reset.

When Zhao Jian resurrected her, something unknown happened, and the other party recovered about 30% of the memories of his past life. Influenced by these memories, Atago was not only fluent in Russian, but also took the initiative to swear allegiance to Zhao Jian on one knee with standard European aristocratic etiquette.

In contrast, Mutsu was able to quickly accept reality, relying solely on reason!

In the other party's view, defeat and change of ownership is a fate that cannot be changed by the ship's mother, and it is already a rare gift to be able to retain the memory of the previous life. Instead of contradicting and suffering, it is better to accept the reality as early as possible.

So after the resurrection, these Japanese shipwrecks were all arranged in the fourth district, waiting for future observation and consideration, and then deciding whether to be included in the active fleet. After they were taken away by Hongling, the few people who remained in the maintenance room focused their eyes on the last piece of divine core.

For the second time in his life, he bought the "Super Order Divine Core", and the ideal value was as high as 90,000 tons, Zhao Jian held the huge Divine Core of Musashi in both hands, and silently compared it with Kii's mount in his heart. In terms of the amount of money to buy, this brown-colored crystal brick is more than twice as heavy as Kii's!

And the reason why Thor didn't let Zhao Jian activate it immediately was mainly because he was worried about Musashi's mental state.

On the battlefield that day, the Musashi encountered saturated fire from the main fleet of Star Castle, and hundreds of plasma bombs were hit. Considering Andrea's experience, Thor worries that if he activates this core now, he may get a "broken Musashi".

Therefore, for a safety reason, Thor's advice is to enter Musashi's consciousness space first, confirm the actual mental condition of the other party, and then consider whether to resurrect Musashi immediately depending on the situation. Because once the god core is activated, the personality of the ship girl will activate the self-protection mechanism, and it will be difficult to think about it when the time comes.

If Musashi really fell into a state of despair, then Zhao Jianda could use the appeasement process to directly brush the "favorability" in the depths of the other party's heart. However, considering that Musashi's own level was too high, the people who were afraid that Zhao Jian would be suspicious alone, decided to be accompanied by Chiyou and Xia Weier, who were of stronger rank.

These three people are absolutely foolproof when they team up...... Probably! (To be continued......)
