Chapter 775: A Very Simple Missile
Ji Xinghe's order shocked everyone who learned the news.
Including Xie Rui, the captain of the space battleship Ping'an, he was happily returning with the victorious independent regiment and a large number of marquis armor captured by the independent regiment, when he suddenly received an order to capture/destroy a Federation spaceship.
Old man, is it finally going back?
I can't.
Shocked, Xie Rui did not hesitate to order a change of course, and informed the relevant personnel of the Independent Regiment who were on the Ping'an, and in the process, he also understood why he received such an order.
"Damn, how dare you rob the spoils of our independent regiment? It's just the other way around. ”
The chase officially began.
It was precisely because the Ping'an space battleship suddenly changed course that the Nantianmen Command knew the cause and effect, so they were all shocked.
As for how much is faked, only those people themselves know.
"Is the Trident crazy?" Lieutenant General Davis said angrily in the command center: "Immediately give me the spaceship that contacted the Trident, and let them immediately send the trophies of the Independent Regiment to Base Six." ”
"Reportedly, the Trident said they had received orders to transport the relevant loot to Base Nine."
Davis frowned: "Who gave the order?" ”
"Ministry of Defense Equipment."
"......" Davis took a deep breath: "Give me the commander-in-chief." ”
"Yes."
This matter was obviously beyond the scope of Davis's authority as a lieutenant general, even if he was the rotating commander of the command center of the Nantianmen Command. Because the Ministry of National Defense Equipment is no worse than the Nantianmen Command in terms of level, from a certain point of view, the Ministry of National Defense Equipment is more powerful than the Nantianmen Command.
Because they are in charge of all the weapons and equipment owned by the federal military, including but not limited to procurement, production, research and development, and sales.
While waiting for the communication to connect, Davis felt like he had figured out what the problem was.
Although the Federal Ministry of Defense Equipment had the authority to 'sell' before, to whom? After the mercenary system was introduced, it was different, and the security company, which was formed by the capital of various parties, became a customer of the Ministry of Defense Equipment.
According to the information obtained by Davis, up to now, the Ministry of Defense Equipment has achieved trillions of 'sales' through this system, and the profits are very exaggerated.
Just look at the number of mecha owned by the mercenary groups, you can understand one or two, more than 3,000 conventional-level standard mechas, and the average unit cost is not more than 80 million in the military's report, how can it be sold for more than 700 billion?
This is just the beginning, because if the mecha wants to participate in the war, there will definitely be damage, and the parts for repairing the mecha are more expensive, and you haven't bought them anywhere else, and the Federation only has this one.
There is a tenfold difference in the zero integer ratio, can you believe this?
Whether the security companies dare to believe it or not, they have to buy it as long as they want to profit from this war.
And the large amount of money they paid also alleviated the problem of insufficient military spending by the federal military.
The Federation's military spending has always been insufficient, don't look at the Federation's annual GDP has already exceeded 100 trillion, and there is a military spending quota of more than 10 trillion every year, but it can't stand the way of firepower.
Let's just say that in this battle, the Nantianmen Command used hundreds of billions of quotas for fire support to the second theater, and if it was fought a hundred times like this, it might not be enough to fill in all the military expenses for one year.
Of course, the Federation is very willing to fight like this a hundred times, and they are also willing to fight a thousand times, because the independent regiment is too capable of fighting, in other words, it is too profitable, invest 100 billion, and multiply it for you to earn it back, who doesn't want to?
The accounts cannot be counted only partially.
For example, in the Gods Mountain Theater in this battle, the value of the captured loot is far less than the sacrifice and loss. If you want to calculate the economic account, it is equivalent to a loss of hundreds of billions in this business.
Not counting these economic accounts, only counting the survival and training of millions of people in alien planets, the daily expenses are astronomical.
Therefore, the use of the mercenary system does have a sense of alleviating the urgent need.
But now that the mercenary group has been disabled, more than half of it has been lost, although the military can be completely 'blameless', but if it is not solved well, then this business that can solve the urgent need will not be able to do it in the future.
Let's try it soon, everyone. 】
Davis, who had this in mind, had already thought of his words when Yovanovic connected the communication.
"General Ji will really knock down that spaceship, just like he broke General Tu Yuan's leg before."
Davis did not calculate the economic accounts, nor did he give Yin Wanovic the opportunity to calculate the economic accounts, he gave Yin Wanovic another kind of 'accounting'.
"Commander, you don't want to see General Ji give up his rank of general, right?"
Giving up the title means a complete exodus. Whether it is to become a mercenary organization or to support the army and stand on its own......
It's really not the picture that Yin vanovic wants to see, he doesn't want to now, and he didn't want to before.
But his expression and tone were very helpless.
"Davis, I've always been very optimistic about you, since you were under Kenvis, I have looked very well on you, at that time, you were the commander of the Western Theater of Operations, and the relationship with the Eastern Theater was handled very well."
Yin Wanovic is a native of Xiongzhou, and the main force in the eastern theater of the Battle Scar Canyon was also from Xiongzhou, so it is naturally under Yin Wanovic's attention, so this praise is sincere.
"But." Yin Wanovic changed his words: "You are indeed inferior to Tang Qiao." ”
"Huh?"
"If it was Tang Qiao, he wouldn't have come to me, because he knew that when this kind of thing happened, there was nothing I could do."
"Huh?"
Yin Wanovich hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I know that you have a very good relationship with General Ji, you can tell him directly now, some people just want to force him to destroy that spaceship, or, by other means, capture that spaceship that will never stop." ”
Davis's brow furrowed even more, and he understood what Yin Wanovich meant.
Knocking out that spaceship is easy to explain, this is completely different from the nature of Ji Xinghe when he was in Azure Star and destroyed that spacecraft with his own hands, and the consequences will naturally be completely different.
And capture that spaceship by other means......
Davis thought about the unbelievable breakdowns in the battle report information in the second war zone, and finally understood that Yin Wanovic really couldn't stop it.
The only person who can stop this is Ji Xinghe himself.
He had thought that Ji Xinghe would have a lot of trouble, but he didn't expect it to be so soon, obviously he had been prepared.
"Okay, then I'll contact General Ji."
Before the communication was hung up, Davis asked people to pick up the communication from Ji Xinghe.
The first sentence he said was: "Old man, things are not as simple as you think, it is very complicated, you first ask the Ping An not to fire, listen to me......"
Yin vanovic was a little speechless, in front of me is General Ji, and in the blink of an eye he is an old man?
It's too fake.
It's no wonder that some people want to use this method to suppress Ji Xinghe.
Yin Wanovic's slander was not over yet, and before Davis's words could be finished, Ji Xinghe's voice had already sounded.
"I authorize the Ping An to fire freely."
“???”
“!!!”
Davis looked at the infographic tracking the space battleship Ping An in horror, and saw a scene that made him even more frightened.
The space battleship Ping'an, really fired.
The Ping'an space battleship was very fast, and it was not fully loaded, compared to the small spaceship that had stolen the trophies of the Independent Regiment, but it was already fully loaded.
So shortly after both sides ascended into space, the Ping An had already managed to catch up with Trident Security's spacecraft.
Needless to say, the process of shouting, a spaceship with a special mission, even the order from the Nantianmen Command can be ignored, let alone the shouting of the Ping'an?
After the communication was fruitless, Xie Rui applied to Ji Xinghe for authorization to open fire, which was an application in line with the rules and regulations, because the space battleship Ping An belonged to the second theater of operations, and the commander of the second theater was Ji Xinghe.
As for whether Ji Xinghe's orders and authorizations comply with the relevant rules and regulations, it is not a matter for Xie Rui to consider, including this sudden accident, what kind of unknown secrets are hidden behind it, and it has nothing to do with Xie Rui.
Just execute the command.
There were no surprises, how could a spaceship with almost no weapons be able to withstand the attack launched by the Federation's main spaceship, the Ping An?
Maybe he didn't even think about resisting, so he didn't even activate the only close defense gun.
A missile streaked through a modest trajectory in the cosmic vacuum, hitting the Trident Security spacecraft with incredible precision, destroying one of the spacecraft's propulsion engines.
The spaceship that was hit shook and shook in space for a short time, and finally managed to stabilize its balance. In fact, it has not lost its ability to fly, just like a civil airliner on the Azure Star, when it loses one side of the engine, it can continue to fly, in space, not to mention three propulsion engines, even if there is only one, it can continue to fly, as long as the spacecraft does not disintegrate and explode.
And the disintegration and explosion is also impossible, Xie Rui is too professional.
But it chose to stop and surrender, as if the people in it were afraid of death. It seems that at this moment, in the eyes of some people, this spaceship is the one who has won.
It was only at this time that Ji Xinghe explained to Davis, as if he was making some kind of announcement through Davis.
"You see, it's not that complicated, it's very simple to deal with."
Davis said a little helplessly: "Yes, only one missile was used, which is indeed very simple, but what about after that?" Old man, you ...... Alas! ”
Ji Xinghe's tone was still calm, as if he hadn't heard Davis's voice at all, and he hadn't thought about anything else at all.
He said.
"After that, it's also very simple, because I have many, many, many missiles."
Davis: "!! ”
Yovanovich: "!! ”
