Chapter One Hundred and Eight: Gathering
Tang Hao and the base intelligence adjutant have been working overtime to provide Susie with mechanical information.
The powerful firepower of this layer of the enemy gave Tang Hao a very serious sense of crisis.
Originally, he thought that with a strong team of thirty "capable people", he could basically walk sideways in the underground world.
However, as soon as I arrived at this floor, I was hit by a slap in the face.
Gatling guns and electromagnetic kinetic guns have become standard equipment for enemy vehicles, and manpower is too vulnerable in the face of such weapons.
And the existence of the mechanical hunter also proves that the humans of this layer have obtained the same weapon from the mechanical hands.
Compared with the lower level, the combat level of this layer has been directly improved from the era of cold weapons to the near-future era, and the situation faced by the entire team is very urgent.
"Adjutant, judging from the information you provided, the penetration depth of the electromagnetic kinetic cannon is basically about the same as the thickness of the frontal armor of its vehicle."
"It's a coincidence that this is just the right thing to ensure that we can destroy each other."
The adjutant's answer was very philosophical: "The competition between spear and shield will always tend to be balanced, and even if one side is half a point stronger, it will lead to a one-sided slaughter." ”
Tang Hao nodded and said, "This is good news, after we have this electromagnetic kinetic energy cannon, we don't have to worry about not being able to knock on the turtle shell of the mechanical vehicle." ”
"And if we can find a machine manufacturing factory, as long as the invasion is successful, the whole team can go out in the multi-legged machinery."
The adjutant poured a basin of cold water on him first: "Your Excellency Commander, after Susie's dismantling and inspection, among the three vehicles, the two that were burned out have lost their ability to move and can only be used as spare parts. ”
"The only thing that can be modified is the command vehicle, but with the addition of a manual control system, there is no place to install an electromagnetic kinetic energy cannon on the vehicle."
Tang Hao waved his hand: "Originally, I didn't plan to let them go out to fight in a multi-legged vehicle, and leave the electromagnetic kinetic energy cannon in the camp and use it as a defensive weapon." ”
"As for the multi-legged machine, at most, it is regarded as an experimental vehicle, and if it really fights, it can play a reconnaissance role."
……
The workers' team that went out was led by Britz, and after he became a "capable person", he also had a feeling of inexplicability about the "master".
With the experience of wandering, Britz knows very well what it means to be a peace dog rather than a troubled world, and the "trip to the underworld" has provided him and his companions with a stable life, which makes Britz very grateful.
But in the same way, the price of believing in the "Lord" made him very confused for a while.
Now he is a man who has completely lost his freedom, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a slave of the "master".
However, after losing his freedom, Britz's quality of life has improved a thousand times compared to before.
He can work with the workers, get the most advanced equipment and weapons developed by the team, and apply to join various groups to learn new knowledge according to his interests.
The "Lord" has only issued a few "oracles" in total, mainly to set the direction for the team to move forward, and what Britz has to do is to complete the tasks assigned by the "Lord" step by step, and that's it.
The previous battle with the three war machines was the only one Britz had participated in since joining the team.
In this battle, he was in the battle group, and together with Daniel, he carried the front line of defense, and was injured many times and still did not retreat.
Britz's tenacity was unanimously recognized by the team, and Mamba mentioned four combat heroes in the post-war meeting, Daniel, Lias, Catherine, and him.
Honor gave Britz more of a sense of belonging, but it still didn't completely change Britz's mind about the "Lord".
Especially in the face of their former companions, most of them have expressed their desire to become core members of the "Journey to the Underworld", but can they afford such a price?
A group of six "able-bodied" and forty workers went out to mine and collect materials, and they all dragged four large trailers to the mechanical cemetery.
Among the six "capable people", except for Britz, all of them are members of the original Nanlie.
Human beings are social creatures, and they have their own small circle no matter when and where.
The "Ables" of Nanlie barely communicated with Britz, and Britz only liked to stay with his original men.
"Captain, how did the Mamba let you bring these people out to work, Nan Lie's gang are all thorns." One of the men asked.
Britz shook his head: "They only dare to hold it in their stomachs if they have words, the Lord watches them, and they don't dare to make mistakes." ”
"However, last time, so many people ran away, and they took away all the food and equipment we had worked so hard to save, and the people above were very angry about this."
The subordinate replied: "This has nothing to do with us, those guys from Nanlie are also wonderful, if they don't run early or late, they run at this time." ”
"It's not an exaggeration to say that their behavior is a robbery, right? I think, if it weren't for the Mamba's side not gaining a foothold, I guess they would have been ready to send someone to kill a hundred people. ”
Britz smiled: "Those who want to leave can't stay, and those who want to stay won't leave, but you all look at it, if someone eats inside and outside this trip, the words 'kill without forgiveness' are not a joke." ”
As he spoke, he shook the "force field shield" and metal spear in his hand, as a second-level "assaulter" of warrior bonds, with the combat power of Britz, it was easy to deal with ordinary people with one dozen or ten.
The team soon came to the mechanical cemetery, which is a depression with an area of about 10,000 square meters.
The cemetery is filled with all kinds of discarded machinery, and it seems that it has been piled up here for a long time.
Britz first commanded several other "ables" to stand on a few high points to provide a guard for the team, while the other workers picked up the guys and began mining and collecting the mechanical parts of the cemetery.
The task was similar to collecting the compressed blocks, and the task of the workers was simple, just collect the parts and transport them back to District 13, whether the parts would be directly fed to the standard construction formwork or left for backup, that was something Susie had to worry about.
Workers hammered and hammered down the discarded machinery into sizes that were better loaded and piled them up on trailers.
With the efficiency of 40 workers, it took almost two hours to fill all the trailers, and then it was time to return, according to the amount of work assigned by the mamba, two trips a day was enough.
Britz was about to close the team, when Mamie's voice suddenly came to his head: "District 13 is under attack, pay attention to the workers' team, don't approach until the alarm is lifted!" ”
