Chapter 359: Taking Over
In Chu Jungui's consciousness, most of the doomsday shadow hologram was red, but about one-third of the area was in a state of complete destruction. The spark is still running, and it keeps gathering data from all over the place to Chu Jungui.
On the surface, the shadow of doom is still burning, and the smoke is not as strong as it was at the beginning, but it is also impressive. In fact, there was nothing left to burn in the warehouse, so Chu Jungui asked people to take a part of the newly produced biomass powder and mix it with branches and grass leaves to continue burning in the warehouse. The smoke from dozens of braziers looked as if the entire fortress had been set on fire.
Shadow of Doom's true damage is nowhere near as terrible as it seems, mainly due to the addition of two layers of defensive armor to the focus area. With these two layers of composite armor, some areas that would otherwise be completely destroyed are preserved, after all, area-of-effect missiles are far less ruthless in attacking points than armor-piercing shells. As for the high-energy particles of anti-personnel projectiles, it is even more difficult to penetrate the survival-grade composite materials.
When the attack came, Wilson's unruly command also played a great role, and he arranged disaster relief as soon as possible to minimize the damage.
Xinghuo has calculated that the damage of the entire fortress is 43%, and the production capacity is 55%. It will take a week to fully repair it at current capacity.
The losses were also counted, and the direct losses exceeded 30 million. The main reason why it is so low is that there is no cost. The shadow of doom was robbed, Wilson and Roland were captured, and Chu Jungui has no plans to pay them salaries at present, even if they do, there is no place to use them.
However, even if the labor cost is calculated, all the losses are only 50 million.
In comparison, after a few battles, Gamble lost more than 130 chariots alone, which is six or seven billion. At least, there are 30 mechas, and another four or five billion are gone. And the comprehensive auxiliary vehicles destroyed by Chu Jungui are also worth a lot of money, to say the least, they are worth two or three hundred million.
Finally, there is this wave of missile strikes. Don't look at the remarkable results, but from an economic point of view, these missiles are originally pan-interstellar models, and the better the versatility, the more expensive they are. So these missiles themselves are nearly 10 million rounds, which is much more expensive than the Doomsday Shadow Fortress.
Even Chu Jungui admired the arrogance of his opponent, and not anyone could do the thing of smashing the heads of street gangsters with antique vases.
After a few battles, the composite armor plates made of heavy alloy and composite materials worked surprisingly well. There are traces of impurities in the heavy alloy, and all the performance indicators are above the level, and that's it. Mainly survival-grade composite materials, they are not only extremely strong in resisting all kinds of rays and particle penetration, but also surprisingly good in terms of impact resistance and energy absorption.
According to Chu Jungui's own observations, some of the energy disappeared after rushing into the composite material. This may have something to do with the fact that survival-grade composites use a lot of virgin organic matter as raw material, which inevitably contains a little Le Mans grain.
As for fire, the last thing that survival-grade materials are afraid of is high temperatures. When traversing storm clouds, it often has to deal with instantaneous temperatures of hundreds of thousands of degrees Celsius or even higher.
So the missile yield, which was enough to destroy Doomsday Shadow twice in Gamble's calculations, ended up blowing up only half of the fortress.
Looking at the battle report, Chu Jungui sighed silently in his heart, he was really a little envious of his opponent's wealth. If the money is in his hands...... At least half of the debt can be repaid.
2762236518.96, this long string of numbers hovers under the dome of the conference hall, dazzlingly bright. Behind the circular table in the hall sat a circle of marshals, and the marshal's scepter next to the seat shone brightly.
"This is the military cost of destroying a small forward base? plus the cost of the preliminary operation, it has exceeded 5 billion. That's almost enough money for a detachment to go out once! If a detachment were to be used, I don't think anyone here would want to destroy a small fortress on the surface of a planet, right?"
The marshals were thoughtful, and a few of them nodded slightly.
An old handsome man on the opposite side coughed and said, "That doesn't seem to be an ordinary fortress. As far as I know, Shadow of Doom was first built by a Lancer legion, and the defenders were over 10,000 at their peak. Moreover, the transport ships that transported the defenders and supplies were almost always one-way tickets. It is normal that a fortress built at such a cost is difficult to build. ”
The other marshal's face suddenly turned a little ugly, and he snorted heavily.
The old man smiled, no longer continuing the topic, but said: "This battle is not good-looking, but after all, it was won." Now that Gamble has proposed an early rotation, we should have one more issue: who will take his place. ”
Someone said, "Changing guards is not a simple matter. ”
The old man said slowly: "It is indeed difficult to change the guard, Mordred is going to be withdrawn, but the other personnel facilities will stay there." ”
Several marshals were thoughtful. This is like handing over the planetary surface troops of the Knights of the Round Table to the latecomers, and this part of the personnel and equipment are carefully selected, which is undoubtedly a heavy bet.
After a while, someone said: "Gamble's battle exploits were originally a bit insufficient, but considering the particularity of the N7703 galaxy, the weight of battle exploits seems to be adjustable one notch. I agree to be promoted to the rank of general, but the commander of the corps in the Highland Star Domain will be changed from actual to acting, and whether to transfer to actual award will be considered depending on the merits of one year later. ”
The commanders approved one after another, and this article was passed.
The next item on the agenda is who will take over the vacancy left by Camber's departure. The atmosphere in the conference hall suddenly changed wonderfully, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen candidates were introduced. The commanders did not give in to each other, insisted on what they had seen, and watched the meeting enter a dead circle of infinite debate.
Planet 4 of the N7703 system, several transport ships pass through storm clouds and hover above the base of the Knights of the Round Table. In the center is a slender gray-blue starship with elegant lines and a modern design. After the electric fire on the surface dissipated, there was no damage, only a few pieces of charred black.
Inside the starship, a tall and cold woman put down the light screen in her hand and looked out of the porthole. The virtual porthole not only shows the scene outside the ship, but also marks various planetary data. She frowned slightly, and said, "Is this such a hellish place that the old men have worked so hard to get through? Is this a place where people live?"
Sitting across from her was an elegant man, who smiled and said, "This place is not for people to live in the first place. Although the scenery here is ...... Well, it's not great, but any living planet has extraordinary value. ”
"I know, I don't need you to preach. ”
The man wasn't angry either, just shrugged.
The starship slowly landed in the center of the base, and the base commander of the Knights of the Round Table was already waiting. When the woman stepped out of the starship, he greeted her.
The woman directly interrupted his tirade of politeness: "Needless to say, you just need to know one thing, from now on, there will be no more Round Table Samurai here, only my Agnes subordinates!
The commander's face changed several times, and finally he bowed his head and said, "Understood, sir." ”
The woman threw him aside and walked straight to the command center of the base, and said to the elegant man beside her, "Is this the place where I want to make a contribution?"
"Yes. ”
"I can endure it for a month at most. ”
"Complete the merit goal, and you can go back. Of course, these people can be taken away. ”
"Then hurry up and get to work, I don't want to stay any longer. ”
