Chapter Ninety-Eight: Expensive Cannon Fodder
They can think of the method of dispatching the "Puma" mecha, and Pantcost, as the supreme commander of the base, can naturally think that at this moment, the PPDC has sent a dispatch order to the Mexican government again, and by the way, it is attached to the information of the invasion of the Kaiju beast this time, which directly points out that this is a battle for the survival of mankind.
As for whether the Mexican government will listen to it, this can only depend on the will of God.
The speed of the network made the Mexican government quickly receive an order, and the information on the invasion of the Kaiju Beast attached to it made everyone's faces a little ugly. Especially when they saw the predicted results of the next invasion, there were at least 4 Open Chrysanthemum Beasts, and the information that there was a high probability that there would be a Rank Open Chrysanthemum Beast made them have to collect their contempt.
"What should I do?"
A black government official looked up at the president, who was sitting on the other side.
The president did not answer directly, but looked at several senior military leaders present, and the PPDC named the "Puma" mecha needed, and the control was in the hands of these people.
"I think there are 5 mecha in Hong Kong, not more than us, and less than us." The opinion of a black colonel, who is the direct head of the mech pilot and one of the people who oppose the transfer of the mech, has expressed his opinion.
"Cougar" is a third-generation mecha produced by Mexico, and after being manufactured, it was assigned to the Panama base, which belongs to a relatively late batch of manufacturing, so it avoided the limelight of a large amount of damage to the mecha, successfully survived, and was hidden as a treasure by the Mexican government.
In their opinion. It is enough to have 5 mecha in the Hong Kong base, and the remaining one might as well be left at home as a treasure at the bottom of the box to deal with emergencies. As everyone knows, this practice has been privately despised and ridiculed by various governments.
If we talk about the losses received by the invasion of the Kaiju Beast, China, the United States, Japan, and Russia, any country that is taken out is several times more than Mexico, and these big countries do not despise their own treasures. Mexico, on the other hand, has made such a move, and has undoubtedly become a laughing stock of other countries.
The Mexican government also knew that it was in the wrong, but it was still cheeky to keep the cougar. Muttering in my heart that your life or death is none of my business? The U.S. government also sent two notes to the Mexican government on this matter, but unfortunately to no avail.
In the final analysis, the "Puma" mecha is made by Mexico after all, and it has absolute ownership. Since it is refused, even if it is a PPDC, there is no way. And this time the information and evidence obtained by PPDC, the Kaiju Star people are ready to launch a formal attack on the human race, and the intensity of the attack is far more than the previous one, just this time the three Kaiju Beasts are already unprecedented, and there is no one to come.
This time, PPDC has explained these things that this time it is a life-and-death battle between humans and Kaiju Beasts, and each additional mecha will increase the chance of victory. And the results of the failure are clear to all, and the painful experience of many years tells the people. Once the Kaiju Beast becomes the master of the earth, it will definitely not mind erasing the humans who claim to be the masters of the earth.
"Idiot!"
Another black general slapped the table and reprimanded harshly: "This has reached a critical moment, and you are still thinking about the interests of your one-third of an acre of land?" Think about it with your pig brain, once the human counterattack fails, and the chrysanthemum beast drives straight in, even if such a mecha is left, there is still a bird to use! ”
This black general obviously belongs to the long-term vision, and after a little analysis, you can understand the pros and cons, this is a war involving all mankind, and petty and stingy are not at this time.
The black colonel, who was pointed at his nose and scolded by the black general, naturally couldn't see where to go, and a white officer on the other side also nodded: "What Lieutenant General Langlus said is very reasonable, Frank, now is not the time for selfishness, and we have already refused once not long ago, I don't think we should refuse this time." ”
"They want mechas, they can go to the Forgotten Graveyard to find them, where there are so many parts, they can be put together and used alive."
The black colonel was still a little unwilling, and he was not afraid of these high-ranking generals, because his Lao Tzu was the previous vice president, not to mention that his actions and actions did not endanger the fundamental interests of the Mexican government, which determined that he would not be attacked by others.
The president took one look at the stubborn young fellow, frowned and knocked on the table.
"You think PPDC wouldn't think about it? A few months ago, the PPDC had already sent someone to the Forgotten Cemetery to dig out all the mechs that could be repaired, except for the dangerous wanderer with minor damage, the rest were also repaired two, but unfortunately it was just an empty surface, only the basic power system was retained, and there was no combat effectiveness. ”
"And this?" The black colonel was stunned for a moment.
The president looked at the young colonel and shook his head, after all, he was the son of the former vice president, and although he stepped down, he still had the support of a certain consortium, and he couldn't do too much, so he could only remind him of it.
And the news about the forgotten cemetery is not false, but real, as the No. 1 leader of a country, the president is naturally entitled to access these high-level secrets, Pantcoster and the governments decided to retreat to the Hong Kong base, then won the opportunity to repair the mecha, but unfortunately a total of three were repaired, but only the dangerous wanderers still have combat effectiveness, the other two mecha because of the damage is strict, can only be used as a moving model to exhibit, to the battlefield can not last long, It's not useful.
Although the PPDC will be revoked soon, but before that, the governments of various countries have provided the last resources for this army with outstanding achievements, and the biggest difference from the movie is that PPDC is still one of the standard military forces, and it still enjoys the military support of the governments of various countries, which is much better than the semi-underground military organization in the movie.
For example, the 2,400-pound thermonuclear bomb, equivalent to about 1.2 million tons of TNT equivalent, was provided by the Russian government, and this nuclear bomb was originally intended to be secretly destroyed in accordance with the nuclear arms reduction treaty between the United States and Russia.
After being reprimanded by the president like this, the black colonel finally realized the severity of the matter and confirmed that this was not the time for him to keep his mecha and accumulate political capital.
"If that's the case...... then we can only support, otherwise we will be severely criticized by the international community."
Hearing that the colonel finally relented, the president also breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at the other leaders, all of whom understood the meaning in each other's eyes.
In fact, if it weren't for the time when it had to be, the president himself would not be willing to send the mecha out, you must know that it was 60 billion US dollars, Mexico had only built a few planes, and the "Cougar" was the only one left.
The war between the mecha and the chrysanthemum beast is not throwing money at all, it is burning money!
And the speed of burning money made it very difficult for governments around the world, so they had no choice but to stop the Skua mecha plan and start the coastal defense wall instead, but before the construction was completed, it was driven straight into by the chrysanthemum beast and slapped in the face.
"Alright then, reply to PPDC, and "Puma" will leave immediately. ”
Now that the decision has been made, there is no need for further discussion and ink, and the president quickly approved the dispatch of the "Puma" mecha, which was urgently transported to the Hong Kong base by the helicopter in charge of the transport. At the same time, two large mechs that appeared to be intact were also transported from a temporary transit base that had been closed by the United States.
These two mechs look no different from normal mechas, but they are just an empty shell inside, only the basic power system is retained, and the cockpit is also hollow, and there is no device linked to the pilot, and they are respectively codenamed "Big Big Wolf" and "Little Red Riding Hood", obviously the guy who gave the name is not very good.
"These two mechs were dug up from the Forgotten Graveyard and rebuilt with other parts that damaged the mechs."
Zhang Yang and the other pilots were called out by Pantcoster in the center, pointing to the two shell mechs on the virtual screen and introducing, when they heard that these were two shell mechas, everyone's faces were a little strange.
"Empty shell mech? Such a mecha ...... What's the use? ”
"The role is very simple, lure the enemy."
General Heck, who was standing on the side, clapped his hands and explained to everyone: "We have a hunch that this time will become the most important battle of life and death, the Kaiju Beast will definitely fight back strongly to prevent us from blowing up the gap, and we also need to send our maximum strength, including a total of 8 mechas, including the cougar, of course, including these two." ”
Heck glanced at everyone:
"And the big bad wolf and Little Red Riding Hood have only one role, that is, to lure the enemy and attract other chrysanthemum beasts to attack them, which is why they retain a power system and no driver. The number of chrysanthemum beasts that invaded this time. It is very likely that it will exceed our expectations, and we will distract the other party as much as possible, so that the 6 mechs will prioritize the other Kaiju beasts and cover the nuclear bomb from entering the gap. ”
Everyone took a deep breath, the role of these two behemoths is to lure the enemy, although they are empty shells, but they are also real mechas, so calculated, this is probably the most valuable since the war with the Kaiju Beast...... Cannon fodder, right?
Standing aside and listening to the announcement of this strategic plan, I couldn't help but feel a little emotional, Pantcoster's courage and confidence were more than I expected, although these two mecha have no combat ability, but it still takes a short time to repair, obviously before this, Pantcoster has been prepared for this.
