Chapter 156: Provocation
By the time everyone had calmed down the somewhat grumpy Shiba Inu, the Thunderbolt Fleet led by the Lava also landed in the position reserved by the host country for the Federation fleet.
I don't know if it was intentional by the host country or Ye Wenqin They were too sensitive, this camp was assigned to the northwest corner of the entire joint camp, the ground level was very average, and even many places were still potholes, although the barracks standing here were exactly the same as other camps, but Ye Wenqin, who had already scanned everything around here into the spiritual vision, still found that the sturdiness and sealing of these houses were still inferior to other camps.
Of course, it is very rare for a barracks to collapse or something, but in this cold winter, and the altitude here has reached more than 4,000 meters, the warmth of the houses is self-evident.
"Lieutenant General Lu is going to have a headache. ”
Ye Wenqin knocked on the wall panel of the barracks, and there was a muffled echo sound, obviously the wall board was of average thickness, and it might even be hollow inside.
"I'm going, are these two countries so stingy? ”
The night falcon also tapped a few times like Ye Wenqin, and said with some surprise.
"Hmph, it is estimated that it will disappoint Mirama and the people of Weihandi, most of the people in the Thunder Punishment Fleet this time are cultivated, this level is not in the way at all, even if it is an ordinary crew, just stay on the airship, the facilities on it are much stronger than here. ”
The monkey chirped and said, this guy has also made some friends on the airship during this time, although he can't reveal his own information, most of them still know the identity of the skeleton team.
"So, that's the way it is for these two countries, and when I was in the air just now, I roughly observed that less than half of the members of the troops of their two countries are warriors or contractors, and ordinary people account for most of them. I see, they define the Union army by their own standards. ”
Ye Wenqin thought about it and said.
In fact, in the armies of most countries in the world, ordinary people also occupy a large proportion, and this situation is more obvious after the invention of firearms, as long as there is a firearm above the level, even the lethality of ordinary people on the battlefield should not be underestimated.
In the final analysis, it is all due to economic strength, after all, the cost of supporting an ordinary person is much lower than that of a warrior, not to mention the contractor, not to mention others, just the amount of food needed by the two every day is very different, not to mention the expensive standard equipment.
At present, there are still a considerable number of troops with cultivators, that is, a few relatively wealthy countries, and the broken Silk Milama and Weihandi are obviously not among them.
"None of this has anything to do with us, you continue to take care of the cargo, Captain Night Falcon, come with me to the camp of the Silver Eagle Republic. ”
Ye Wenqin has no interest in these Uyghur people's troubles, and now all his thoughts are on the next task, according to the plan, they will not stop here, and will directly transfer the goods to the airship received by the Republic and leave here directly.
Just as the two of them were about to leave, a main battle-class airship painted in the air force livery of the Republic slowly landed on the edge of the camp, and above this airship, there were seven or eight second-class airships suspended there.
"It seems that we don't need to go, they just came here. ”
Ye Wenqin put up a pergola with his hands and looked at this airship with a different style.
Unlike the airships that the Federation has always developed in the shape of cigars and droplets, the Silver Eagle Republic prefers a spindle-shaped, while the Astor Empire's airships are more like moving warships on the sea directly into the air.
The ones they saw were spindle-shaped medium-sized airships, with a length of more than 130 meters, and the widest part was in the swollen part, about 278 meters.
"The Vikramaditya-class, the main model that the Republic is now equipped with, is escorted by the Chavik-class medium-sized cruisers, and it seems that the Republic does attach enough importance to these cargoes. ”
The Night Falcon quickly judged the level of these airships, the Vikramaditya class was the most powerful airship of the Republic before the Pisces class came out, although its combat effectiveness has now been surpassed by the latest Pisces class, not to mention the Federation's Dusk class and Dusk reclassification, but the biggest advantage of this level of airship is flight altitude.
It was the highest-flying airship in existence, five thousand meters higher than the Dusk Modification, and was almost close to the fetal membranes of the Firmament World.
It's just that the Silver Eagle Republic found that this height is not useful for combat in subsequent practical applications, and even too high, so this technical indicator has not been retained in the follow-up Pisces class.
But it is still very suitable for Ye Wenqin and their transportation mission this time, at least at that height, except for the Supreme Person, it is impossible for anyone to attack it.
In a short time, the Vikramaditya-class airship hovered steadily at a height of seven meters above the ground, and then a ten-meter-wide boarding board slowly plunged from its tail to the ground, and a military jeep and several large military transport vehicles rumbled down from above.
"It seems that the airship of this class has found its new place. ”
Looking at this scene, Ye Wenqin couldn't help but joke, obviously the army of the Republic had added a role to this airship that was supposed to be used for combat - transportation.
In fact, this is also the fate of most of the existing airships in the Federation after the establishment of the future aircraft force, but the starting point of the two countries is different.
The people on the jeep obviously knew Ye Wenqin's location, but after the car drove to the ground, it crossed a graceful arc and drove straight towards Ye Wenqin.
"Hi Colonel Clown, we meet again. ”
Before the jeep could hold up, a figure jumped down from above. The person who came was none other than Davis, the deputy director of the CIA who Ye Wenqin had already known in the federal federation before.
Ye Wenqin didn't expect this No. 2 person of the CIA to appear here, and hurriedly saluted with the night falcon.
"Director Davis, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”
"Hahahaha, I'm so happy. ”
Davis looked at Ye Wenqin with a smile on his face, and said without any arrogance.
"I'm sorry, I didn't receive the notice, did you personally escort this shipment this time?"
Ye Wenqin asked suspiciously, although this batch of monitoring equipment is very valuable, it shouldn't let such a person go out in person.
"No, no, I'm still here to participate in this military exercise. When I heard that you were coming, I came to meet you. ”
Davis's words made Ye Wenqin a little flattered, but just listen to the words of this kind of intelligence leader, who knows what he has in mind.
Ye Wenqin didn't react yet, but the face of an officer wearing the uniform of the Mirama and Uyhandi Joint Operations Force, who arrived in the same car as Davis, suddenly turned red.
"Deputy Director Davis, didn't you say that you came to see Major General Lu Zifeng, am I dazzled, this person is just a colonel, or a colonel of Chuck's Ministry of National Security. When did the Deputy Director of the CIA of the Silver Eagle need to whisper to such a fellow?"
Judging from the brief, this man was a major general, and he was supposed to be at least respectful in front of Davis, but his words were full of hostility and disdain.
"Oh, Major General Richardson, I'm sorry I forgot to introduce, you probably don't know. This is the commander of a unit that has been in the limelight lately. Colonel Clown, this is Rear Admiral Richardson, the commander of the Sky Slaying Fleet during the exercise. ”
Davis didn't seem to mind the arrogance and disrespect in the words of the major general named Richardson, and still said with a smile on his face.
"Oh, then it seems that I'm really unheard, when will the Chuck Federation still have a force to make a big show. ”
This Richardson said with his head tilted, almost nostrils to the sky.
Seeing this person's virtue, Ye Wenqin, who was about to salute, also withdrew his half-raised hand and turned his head to look at Davis, you must know that Richardson's move is not only to look down on him Ye Wenqin, but also to offend Davis.
But Davis continued to smile as if nothing had happened.
"Mr. Major General, this is the captain of the Chuck Federation Skeleton Brigade, you have always heard of the 100-person theater hostage incident they solved before, you must know that even in our Silver Eagle Republic, there are not many troops that can successfully rescue Captain Clown and them without casualties. ”
Hearing Davis's words, not only Richardson, but even Ye Wenqin's face changed.
Richardson was surprised by Ye Wenqin's identity, even he had heard a lot of the name of the skeleton brigade recently, and now the leader of this mysterious unit would appear here, how could he not be surprised.
Ye Wenqin, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes and looked at Davis, and began to ponder the meaning of his words, you must know that they are traveling secretly this time, even if the lava ship they took was in the name of the Republic troops before, not to mention that their identities were unknown except for a few people such as Major General Lu Zifeng.
But Davis revealed it here that he was doing this, and there must be some purpose.
"Skeleton brigade, I remember, isn't that a unit that the Chuck Federation boasted of? Just like they boasted about their airships, I didn't think there really was such a unit. This clown colonel is so young, it seems that his family background must be very good. ”
Richardson held back the surprise in his heart, but the words in his mouth were still full of disdain and contempt for the Union.
"Major General Richardson, pay attention to your words, the strength of the federal forces is not something you can judge. ”
Just when Night Falcon looked at the arrogant major general in front of him with an ugly face, and was worried about how Ye Wenqin would answer, Major General Lu Zifeng's voice sounded from behind him.
