Chapter 161: Everyone is smart
Zhao Wenrui appeared, and the rangers were happy.
Although every time Zhao Wenrui appears, it means that the enemy is very strong.
But just because the enemy is strong doesn't mean it's hard to fight.
In fact, every time there is Zhao Wenri, the Rangers can always achieve brilliant victories beyond imagination.
So far, several tough battles that have established the status of the rangers have been won with Zhao Wenrui.
For example, the last time Terrado VIII, the bugs were really strong and numerous, but how? The Rangers annihilated more, more than the total number of bugs the empire had destroyed in the last three years.
That's the entire empire, what a territory, how many battles, and the result is not as many as the rangers killed at one time, just ask you?
So the Rangers are rising, and there is one number one in the rivers and lakes.
The eyes of the masses are also bright, and they are also following the strong, otherwise there are so many non-governmental charity rescue organizations, why do the people pin their hopes on Renault's rangers as soon as they talk about it?
It's not enough that you're kind enough, you have to be strong enough for people to be willing to buy it, and to be willing to put a little bit of trust in you.
The Renault Ranger is more reputable in people's hearts than the Imperial ** team, and that's how it came about, not just a good deed.
After all, in this troubled era, it is not uncommon for rich people or organizational forces to take the opportunity to buy people's hearts. But the flagpole of their strength cannot stand, they are fat pigs.
Don't think that refugees must be kind, there is a psychology of eating big households, there is no thunder means, it is just fat, what can you do if you rob you?
Therefore, the world is actually very chaotic, not black and white, nor is it necessarily good if the weak are necessarily kind, because of this, people like Renault Ranger who have a good name and a strong reputation are easier to win people's trust, at least you know that his bottom line is not bad, and he will not be destroyed at once, but can stand on the flagpole and maintain his own set of order. Only under the protection of such forces can there be security and stability.
Therefore, Renault's rangers have today's prestige and reputation, which is not easy, and Ethan Houghton is a great contributor. Everyone has a small ledger in their hearts, and everyone knows who has made a big contribution to the whole team.
Who relied on marketing skills to greatly improve the welfare of the Rangers?
Who relies on superb technology to help the big guys upgrade from top to bottom, from individual soldiers to facilities, so that everyone can use the best weapons and equipment?
Who is it who assists the big guys, fights beautiful battles, and makes the Rangers famous all over the world?
Who is worried about everyone's afterlife, urging the implementation of retirement insurance and pension insurance, and relieving everyone's worries?
Ethan Horton!
Although this person is not a Ranger, everyone has long regarded him as a member of the Ranger, a reliable brother, and a brother that people are proud of when they say it.
"Ethan Horton is my brother, what? I haven't heard of it, that's right, people are hundreds of thousands of people every second, and they don't care about seeing ordinary people......"
Ethan Horton is the invisible giant and leader of the Rangers, which everyone recognizes.
In Ethan Houghton's absence, everyone thought he was going to settle personal matters and work on the future projects of the Rangers, and never felt that this person didn't exist, that he wasn't one of us.
So Ethan Horton came, and the Rangers were happy from top to bottom, and they could eat an extra bowl for dinner.
Jim Renaud was a little impatient to introduce Ariel Hansen to Zhao Wenrui.
"Your Excellency's name is so loud, including Jim, that everyone always mentions you. "Ariel's emotional intelligence is okay, although the compliment is a bit old-fashioned, but it's quite pleasant.
"So what about your intuitive feelings for the doctor, do you think that if you can be ten or eight years younger, maybe you can consider joining the list of suitors?" Zhao Wenrui looked very relaxed, and stretched out his hand as he said: "It's a pleasure to meet you, your academic paper on plant gene mutation has opened my eyes. But I didn't expect you to be a goddess-like figure with both wisdom and beauty. It seems that sometimes God loves a person, indeed, without reservation. β
Ariel Hansen smiled as he listened. Even Jim Renaud said with some surprise: "Okay, Houghton, it turns out that you talk about being obedient and ...... a set"
As a result, when Zhao Wenrui turned his face and was alone with Jim Renault, he said: "Jim, we are doing a loss-making business, and we will have to lose a lot of money in the future, and you even have to take advantage of the favor of Xingling." We'll have to find some money to get back, or the Rangers won't be able to take it!"
Jim Renaud scratched his head a little unnaturally: "Is it so exaggerated?" β
Zhao Wenrui analyzed: "First of all, you have to understand that the entire Koplu Star Region, where the entire human race lives, is the border of the Star Spirit. And the attitude of the Star Spirit towards the Alien Worm does not need to be repeated, especially since its capital, Star El, fell to the Alien Worm, and has not yet recovered it. They are all those who come along with the worms, and they will die. β
"So is an alien infestation a touch? Absolutely. This is not discussed, it will not be because you have a little friendship with the star spirit, they are ambiguous in judgment, the star spirit will never be like that, you know. β
"Then, looking at the current situation, Emperor Mengsk will not care about refugees, he was able to lure insects to slaughter the capital star of the Federation in order to trap the Federation, it can be seen that the population is data in his eyes. In the process of maintaining his country, he did not consider the safety of the people, but what his country needed, what was important and what was indispensable. β
"Population, of course, is important, otherwise there is no point in dominating. But population is not the most important thing, at least for now, it is the most important thing to keep a few elite star fields of the empire, such as the Keha star field. β
"This also means that Mengsk will at least stand still, and it is inevitable that he will even dare to break into the Keha system or something, and he will be ruthlessly attacked by the emperor. Mengsk will not allow the infection to spread in the Anointed Lands, even if it is only possible. β
And the refugees are not stupid, and they are gradually seeing this fact. Among them are the likes of Ariel Hansen. They are not stupid, but they are just a little naΓ―ve to believe that the imperial authorities will have a minimum of morality. But when the facts are repeatedly slapped in the face, they understand what's going on. β
"So where can they go?"
"Although the Koplu Star Zone is still quite vast, there are actually so many planets suitable for survival. From Hoffman, there are many planets that are relatively easy to reach. You tell me which planet is most likely to land on, and consider that Dr. Ariel Hansen is a botanist. β
"Haven!" Jim Reynolds almost blurted out.
Zhao Wenrui nodded: "I also think it's Hai Wenxing." But we know that Haiwen Star is the territory of the star spirit. Therefore, a round of tearing is almost inevitable. β
"Let's talk about this insect infection. Even people who don't know much can see the problem of this infection, and the biggest problem is that it has mutations and distortions on the spot. You can prevent polio, but can you restore normal to people whose bodies have been deformed by polio? It's not bioengineering at all, right?"
"The same is true for alien insect infection, if you are infected, it will change on the spot, if you want to reverse the gene and restore it, you have to say that this project can be solved, and it is indeed possible, we will abandon the aberration and use stem cells to cultivate health. However, this is premised on the immediate containment of further deterioration of distortion, and even the immediate start of restoration processing. It can't be done, right, even if the accident happened in the hospital, it would not be possible to start the reverse project so quickly. So if it changes, it means that it is not saved. β
"Okay, then let's focus on what hasn't changed. This again involves the properties of the alien genes. Alien insects are a group of life beings that search for essentia and constantly evolve in the universe, and the strength and diversity of their genes are far beyond the reach of humans. If you want to develop a vaccine that can shield the erosion of human genes by alien insect genes, Xingling's technology is afraid that it can't do it, and humans don't have to think about it. β
"It can be said that although the alien insect looks very villainous from the perspective of human aesthetics, but on the premise of not considering ideology, in terms of the life level of the body, the alien insect is far ahead of humans, and it is very difficult for the low-level to try to shield the high-level erosion, so Dr. Hansen's so-called development of the antidote is basically a beautiful vision. β
"Then the question is, what does her people rely on if they want long-term peace and stability?"
"I think the answer is by force. Enough force to protect them from alien viruses, enough force to protect them from the threat of alien races, including astral spirits. In this way, don't talk about any antidote, just look forward and start life again. It is also the most likely good ending to be achieved. β
"So what is the role of you, the Ranger, in achieving such a goal? Yes, Savior. I don't think you will give up halfway, but stick to the end, just because there is still such a kind beauty in your heart. But this is undoubtedly a lot of money, a lot of money, and you have to erase the little friendship you have with the star spirit. You've got to be prepared, Jim Renault. For a beautiful thing that does exist in the world, you have to pay more than you imagined. β
Jim Renaud remained silent until the end, when he said, "Houghton, you're going to support me, right?"
"Why do you think I'm here, applauding your performance?"
"I knew you weren't going to let me down. "Jim Renaud was happy.
"Don't talk about what you don't have, recognize the reality, have a mental spectrum, and try your best to do it well. I'll figure out how I can hurt less money. β
"Okay, I'll leave the money to you. Although Zhao Wenrui's analysis made Jim Renaud realize the difficulty of the road ahead, his mind was also open.
Truth be told, he's not in decline these days, because he knows how much he's done and how much damage he's done to the Rangers. The Ranger is not his backdrop for pickling girls.
Now that Zhao Wenrui has given him an analysis, he has the bottom.
Jim Renaud is also a very intelligent person, and he is also very good at live interpretation, he has a score, he knows how to win people's hearts, and the situation is better.
After Jim Renaud left, Zhao Wenrui said: "Come out, eavesdropping is not what a lady should do." β
And so Ariel Hansen reappeared.
Being the leader of the refugees, Hansen is not a simple person. Her father is the head of the pioneers, she has been exposed to it since she was a child, and she is also familiar with the methods of politicians.
What's more, she is a genius, as long as she is willing, it will not be difficult for her to spend some experience, management things, and psychology or something.
Even if she was a bit of a white lotus in the past, she grew up quickly in the face of the cruel reality.
She actually used Jim Reynold's secret operation, and even hoped that Jim Reynolds would stay in the end, but also for the sake of the long-term peace and stability of her people, after all, the operation of the Star Spirit to purify the human settlement of Haiwen Star was stopped by the Rangers, which does not mean that it will not come again.
And the Ranger is not there, and when the Star Spirit comes to play purification again, I'm afraid that the Ranger is willing to come over to help, and he won't rush. So Ariel is trying to catch Jim Renault.
It's a pity that Jim Renaud's heart has been unreservedly dedicated to Kerrigan, and if he can't impress Jim Renaud emotionally, there is no need to count on other aspects at all, after all, when it comes to buying, Mengsk the Great can definitely offer a higher price, but did he succeed?
An important reason why Zhao Wenrui realized that Ariel Hansen was not simple was because he had seen Jim Renaud choose to support the Star Spirit at the last moment, so that Hansen was in a hurry and turned into a monster.
In a way, Hansen is the kind of person who will stop at nothing to achieve his ends. And has the arrogance and stubbornness of a genius, so she knows that there is little hope of success, but she still does it without hesitation, and it is the kind of time that only seizes the day, she is very interested in her people, or her political career, she would rather gamble than sit back and watch her people become the ashes under the flame of purification.
Such a person can hardly be simple, but scheming.
Ariel Hansen appeared in front of Zhao Wenrui again, and his expression was that of a very calm and honest person.
"Miss Hansen, I have no problem with you. The only reminder is to ask you to use your skills with your heart and take care of the beautiful flower of humanity and kindness that you have established with Jim Reynolds, who needs this kind of beauty to support him on the long and difficult road, as for you, leaving others a beautiful back I believe is also what you want to see. If you mess up, I guarantee you and your people won't have any future to look forward to. β
Ariel Hansen said with a smile, "So you're Jim Reynold's guardian angel?"
"Is that a problem for you? I ask, did you agree to our simple agreement?"
"Of course. β
"Ok, I'm looking forward to Miss Hansen's professional performance. Zhao Wenrui left after speaking.
Ariel Hansen shrugged and walked the other way away.
When Zhao Wenrui returned to the rangers, he heard a few rangers sigh: "We are going to fall behind, and we will be replaced by these smart steel sticks in the future." β
It turned out that because there were no 'wild humans' to recruit this time, Zhao Wenrui thought of using robots to take on the post of a land soldier.
Specifically, it is the T880, the Future Warrior series, but there is no such model, the T850 has it, the T900 also has it, but there is no 880.
However, the C Kane series played it all badly, saying that if there is, there can be it.
The T900 is a half-human, half-mechanical original spy type, the T850 is a full-fledged cannon fodder soldier type, and the T880 is an improved version of the T850, abandoning the anthropomorphic feature and starting from the perspective of rugged protection.
Therefore, its skeleton, and even its external shape, are very different from human skeletons, and can only be regarded as humanoid, not anthropomorphic.
But all this, wrapped in power armor suits, is not visible.
The power armor suit used by the T880 is also different from that used by human soldiers, it is specially designed for the T880 and does not have the ability to operate alone.
And the T880 must also have an armored suit to be considered complete.
Overall, the T880 is shorter than the GI wearing the CMC series power armor suit, and the height of 190 looks more compact in structure, which is more inclined to the external shape of the Halo series Master Chief.
Out of the need for affinity, Zhao Wenrui deliberately gave T880 a face.
So when the helmet cover is opened, it reveals an honest human face, and people who don't know it will think that this is a person. It may be a piloting suit (the armor is very compact, like a pilot's suit, the suit has the ability to move freely in space, so it is different from the old-fashioned flight suit), or it may be a ghost soldier (ghostly people, low-level ghostly people do not shine, but are more like ordinary people, only when they run ghosting energy, they will be different, they are often light armor).
It's a pity that this trick can't hide from the veterans of the rangers, and the true face of the T880 is opened up by dividing five by two. Obviously, T880 still has a long way to go in terms of anthropomorphism, or in other words, the brain Milano, needs to obtain more big data in this regard, in order to make T880 pretend to be like a person.
Zhao Wenrui comforted everyone: "Rest assured, as long as human beings do not give up invention and creation, there will always be a place in the rivers and lakes." So, remember to let your children and grandchildren read more books, and don't forget what human beings started on. As for the robots in front of you, they're smarter than dogs, and they're central enough that each of you can get past the addiction of a grassroots commander, albeit sending them on dangerous missions. Of course, they won't help you pick your feet and wipe your butt, so you should bring toilet paper with you. β
Everyone laughed, and some people have already begun to think of strange tricks to see that the T880 is out of trouble.
Human beings have this kind of bad habits, and as a newcomer of the same kind, they have to be abused repeatedly, and robots that are not the same kind will not show mercy.
Of course, the T880 doesn't care at all.
They are smart enough to do the job of picking the toes of others, but they don't have a program and their learning ability is not open to that.
Zhao Wenrui doesn't want to let his production of combat robots be too cheap, which is also because he doesn't want to get used to some people's faults.
The Rangers' combat ability is indeed good, but personal conduct and discipline are another matter. It's okay to say it's a bunch of bastards. So you can't blindly play heart-to-heart games, it will hurt a lot.
Zhao Wenrui was not the kind of person who mingled with soldiers at every turn, and the character he established for himself did not rely on these to win people's respect.
So a simple interaction can be regarded as a face, and then Zhao Wenrui began to inspect the camp under the escort of four T880s.
Jim Renaud is very good at choosing places, located in the central area of the whole place, and it is possible to come from any direction, completely in the posture of a welcome wheel.
Fortunately, even if you really want to find a place that is completely open for drying, you can't find it, there are always such and such terrain barriers.
In the area occupied by the rangers, there are basically only three entrances and exits. One in the northwest, one in the northeast, and one in the south.
Isolated from the outside and inside, the formation of natural protection is the deep ravine, extraordinarily steep, hundreds of meters deep kind, the most reassuring of which is the southwest, in addition to the ravine is wider, the inside also sticks to the edge of the ravine There is a cliff of more than 1,000 meters long in the overall semi-arc, artificial, it seems to be some kind of facility, and it was later abandoned.
Now, in the inner layer of this facility, the reserves of silicon crystal ore and high-energy gas ore are okay, and Jim Renaud has sent people to mine them.
But now that Zhao Wenrui is here, this old-fashioned mining can be stopped.
The mining of nanoworms is more efficient, and the high-energy gas mine can also be used on the automatic extractor, which saves space and has high efficiency.
Zhao Wenrui decided to make use of this man-made cliff, so the T880 engineering team began to carry out large-scale construction of the cliff. The first is to tear down the rusty junk on the high platform, put on the communication facilities, and get in touch with the Hyperion in space orbit and the Galactica in high orbit.
You must know that this ghost place is a sandstorm, and the sandstorm is rich in magnetic metal elements, so the interference to communication is particularly large, if you don't have a good communication facilities, communication will be interrupted at night.
In addition, sandstorms have also affected the support of wild bee drones on the ground to a considerable extent.
On the contrary, it is sufficient, their flight units are adapted to almost any environment, and they don't look good, but they are quite classic, and they have won the essence of high adaptability and multi-purpose, so like king insects, flying mantises or something, they can also have good attendance on bad days at night, which even the star spirit can't envy.
Taken together, this means that the Alien side will be rampant at night, and the air superiority that the Rangers are accustomed to may also be lost.
In the weather of the big sandstorm, there are phantoms of insects everywhere, and large shurikens are flying and catapulting in the wind, maybe it will give you a moment at any time, but the RV-like house you live in has been leaked, and you have to run for your life in the cold wind, can you imagine the helplessness and panic?
So there are refugees in this base, and if something like that happens, it will be the beginning of all kinds of tragedies and a series of disasters.
In order to prevent this from happening, it is necessary to change the way we live in front of us.
After all, it is nearly a kilometer long, more than 200 meters high, and dozens of meters thick, and the available space inside is actually very large, enough to settle the refugees.
It's just that it has been abandoned for a long time, and the environment is terrible.
But is that a problem in front of the T880?
In the afternoon, tens of thousands of refugees at the base were asked to live in the cliff building.
Many people are not happy at first, but when they go inside, they find that it is not as bad as they imagined, and the construction is still going on, and the future is promising, and the living conditions will only get better.
Zhao Wenrui also took the opportunity to conduct a comprehensive grade and physical examination of these refugees, isolated about 60 suspicious targets, and at the same time divided the personnel into districts, and set up a grassroots system similar to resident self-management, so that the refugees became more orderly.
The regionalization has also achieved a certain purpose of isolation, with fewer people and less likely to cause chaos.
Zhao Wenrui even gave priority to solving the audio-visual system, connecting to UNN radio station, so that people can understand the outside world and have something to do. People can't be idle, refugees are the same, he has made relevant plans, starting tomorrow, refugees will join the 'I love my home' series of work, do not like to work, can, live in a dormitory like a prison cell, and diligent, soon can buy a complete set of homes, can live like in their own home, even better than the original, after all, there is no tax here, but there is a large subsidy.
Jim Renaud, and even Ariel Hansen, soon began to admire Zhao's vision.
Because that night, the insect organized several air rampages, the ejection attack of the flying mantis, the original residential area was destroyed, and those metal boxes that seemed to have some defensive power were not much better than pieces of paper in the face of the attack of the flying mantis.
The ground defense that night was also very difficult, and the bunker array was broken through several times, all by relying on T880 regardless of damage, and the counter-assault pushed back a large number of mixed insects and insects.
When the sun rose during the day, the insects burrowed into the ground, and the lonely insects chose to retreat.
Jim Reynolds looked at the mess in front of him and wanted to cry without tears.
It can be said that except for the cliff building presided over by Zhao Wenrui yesterday, which was intact, the rest of the facilities were more or less injured, and it would be good to be able to recover these injuries during the day today.
Even if you know that the longer the time drags on, the stronger the insect side will be, there is no way. The power speaks, if it doesn't work, it won't work, and if you can't come, unless it's over tonight, these facilities can't be repaired.
When the refugees came out to work, they were also surprised. The main thing is that the contrast hurts a lot.
This was not the case the day before, when they just knew that most of the settlements on the periphery had fallen. But the core area, that is, the area guarded by the rangers, order and safety are guaranteed, and the situation I saw after coming is indeed the case, I didn't expect it to be just one night, it's like this bird, what happened last night, it's scary to think about it.
Someone was already howling to get out of this hellish place.
Zhao Wenrui said, I'll send you a space coffin, you can go to the universe casually, okay?
Of course not.
Zhao Wenrui said again: "Refugees must have the consciousness of refugees, we have an overall arrangement, how can we sail the ship for you alone? Go up and say, what to eat, what to drink? Where to go? Do you give money, your labor is not valuable, work honestly, be a down-to-earth person, we look at the feelings of the same human beings, and are willing to take you to play, otherwise we will get out." β
Well, why tell such a big truth, people also want to save face. However, since then, the refugees have indeed been much more honest and less crooked.
In fact, the work they can do is really limited, mainly to pick up the rags, and the pots and pans that can still be used in those houses still have to be used to clean up.
Of course, if you have a skill, you will slowly have your own position, and the job gap in the operation of the cliff building is actually quite large, but the personnel in place is not something that can be done in half a moment, and the audit must also be audited, so as not to add chaos to the figure without generating positive value.
As for the manufacture of T880, it has never stopped, and it naturally involves the participation and self-replication of nanoworms.
In fact, Zhao Wenrui has specially built a nano-insect production line to manufacture this universal product day and night. Thus using them at the highest possible rate, speeding up the overall tempo and quickly ending the original accumulation period of the Rangers in this area.
The original northern platform was a special mooring point for towed ships.
But Zhao Wenrui was not satisfied with this arrangement, he let the tow ship finally stop outside the cliff building, on the open space between the silicon crystal mine and the cliff building, and then set up a port array, one end on the inner edge of the top of the cliff, and the other side built close to the ground of the silicon crystal mine, when these arrays were activated, the electromagnetic curtain formed an inclined wall, protecting the tow ship inside.
Zhao Wenrui pointed out that at this stage, we should be a little instigated, and would rather consume more energy, rather than let the tow ship and the facilities on it be damaged, it will be troublesome to repair, and the consumables will be more expensive than the energy consumption.
Energy consumption is nothing, Zhao Wenrui installed seven fusion reactor power units under the cliff building in one go, and relied on the consumption of heavy elements for fusion reactions.
He didn't bring many ships with him this time, but he didn't bring less supplies, including heavy elements.
Heavy elements are essential raw materials for the production of nanoworms and can also be used as fusion fuels. It is an important resource that will not go out of style in the age of space.
To fight a war is to fight the economy and resources. Of course, this thing can't be missing.
In addition, Zhao Wenrui asked the shipyard to make a batch of miniature McGregory Thunder.
This kind of thing was originally used in space, but human beings have mastered vector control technology, that is, artificial gravity and anti-gravity, then floating in the sky is also established.
It's just that Zhao Wenrui didn't use such a high-end technology, the single cost was too high, and there was no way to miniaturize, he used a regional magnetic field, and then arranged a magnetic effect of McGregory in the force field environment.
Under this thing, it is clear that they want to burn money, as for what they killed, if it is all self-exploding mosquitoes, then Zhao Wenrui must have lost it, if there is a flying mantis or something, the insects will lose a lot. That's an economic account.
Underground, spider thunder can also take on a heavy role, windy and dusty days, not only human beings are blind, the visibility of alien insects is also very limited, often waiting to see spider thunder, it is already executing the last pounce.
In the same way, if all the insects are insects + jumping insects, then a large number of spider mines are used, and the loss is Zhao Wenrui.
Zhao Wenrui can even make up for the manufacturing cost of spider mines by extracting elements from insect corpses and liquidating insect corpses as crop cultivation liquid.
Of course, you don't have to use the cultivation liquid or anything yourself, you can sell it to the empire, because the quality is passable, and the market is okay.
So the second night was a bit weird, the sky was blown up, the ground was blown up, and the machine gun fort was no longer the protagonist.
In the middle of the night, the insect saw that the human side seemed to be surviving, so it stopped sending it again, and went back to formulate a new attack plan.
After such a night, by the third day, the Rangers finally relieved themselves, because they didn't do much last night, and they were basically recuperating.
Zhao Wenrui showed that he could fight, and everyone was very happy.
Zhao Wenrui said that you can use the iron belly to hunt nearby, pay attention to keeping the integrity of the creation as much as possible, and we will also recycle, as for the construction of the house, leave it to me.
Teksfini cheered loudly first, he had already held back his breath and wanted to go out and burn something. As for what Zhao Wenrui said, try to keep it intact as much as possible, the rangers never listen to this kind of advice, at most, they don't deliberately sabotage, and they want to get in the way of killing, but there is no door!
