Si Mang took a deep breath, sorted out Su Wei's questions carefully, glanced at the moon in the sky, and asked Su Wei a question directly: "Do you know how many models of heavy mecha are in service in our Heavenly Ladder Republic?" ”

"Four, Taishan-level single-engine single-seat heavy mecha, Blue Star Sky Calendar finalized in 2203, put into active use in 2205, a total of 1,500 units were produced, Taiyue military-grade double-engine double-seat parallel heavy mecha, finalized in 2217, put into actual combat in 2219, a total of 3,000 units were produced, dragon-level double-engine two-seat tandem heavy mecha, finalized in 2222, put into actual combat in 2222, a total of 500 units were manufactured, and later replaced by the improved type, and the improved type was manufactured 2,000 units, Moon Wolf twin-engine two-seat parallel heavy mecha, finalized in 2245, put into actual combat three years ago, is currently our main battle heavy mecha, a total of 3,000 units have been produced, according to the battle damage, less than 300 units can still be fought at present. Su Wei said these data like a cannonball, it was almost ripe, and after finishing speaking, she raised her head slightly, looked at Si Mang provocatively, and her expression seemed to be saying

"Let you talk about him again, I know everything, don't try to fool me."

"Then how many heavy mecha can be put into actual combat in our army now?" Simang asked again.

"Each main army on the front line is equipped with 100 units as standard, and a total of 300 units in three directions!" Su Wei said.

"So, do you know how many heavy mechs we have in the Advance Legion?" Si Mang put his hand on the top of Su Wei's head and rubbed it gently, this action was very light, although Su Wei didn't like it, but she suddenly thought of something.

Su Wei's eyes changed suddenly, and there was a trace of unclear emotion in it, which was very complicated. Although she didn't know why Simang was asking this, she actually knew the answer to the question: "A thousand." After speaking, Su Wei closed her eyes lightly and let out a long breath.

"The front line is indeed too bitter, and those moving mechas from half a century ago are pulled out and used." Su Wei said softly.

"Yes, when life and death are at stake, who can care about whether those mecha are good or not, and some of them are good, so the front line pulls out all the tatters in the inventory, uses what can be used, and changes what can be modified, the military department is equipped with only one hundred heavy mecha for each legion, but with the accessories and materials of these hundred mechas, just one forward legion can transform a thousand mechas." Simang whispered,

"I thought that you, as the main staff officer of the military headquarters, didn't understand the details of these grassroots units."

"How could you not know? The engine of each heavy machine can only be used for 3,000 hours in theory, and then it must be replaced, according to the operating specifications, each mecha will be equipped with 30,000 hours of engine, simply put, a hundred heavy mechas, there are 1,000 spare engines, these are standard. But you terrible guys actually put all the spare engines into those antiques from decades ago, and forcibly added a thousand heavy mechs to yourself, but how can these modified goods be considered heavy machines in the true sense? When it comes to performance, these mecha are completely incomparable to the latest type of big drift heavy mecha! This is not taking human life as human life! In the end, Su Wei felt that her heart was suddenly blocked by something, the reason why she knew this data was because when she was in the logistics department, there was a battle damage report on the front line, and the numbers on it were simply shocking.

"There's no way, in the face of Da Piao's sudden attack, we have nothing else to fight for, but to fill in with our lives." Simang smiled,

"The average survival time of the mechs in the Vanguard Battalion is much shorter than the use time of the engine, and the engine and the mecha are worth more than their lives, don't waste anything." Su Wei suddenly couldn't speak.

The front line is a meat grinder, a proving ground, a whetstone, but the farthest from heaven.

"No, where are these mecha enough, the Forward Legion can have a thousand heavy mechas, isn't it because some forest frog mecha engines and accessories have been captured from Da Piao?" Su Wei suddenly raised her head,

"Besides, what does that have to do with the question I just asked?"

"Do you know what the model of our mech is?" Simang asked.

"Moon wolf double-engine two-seat parallel type, I can still see this!" Su Wei sighed, looking at him like a fool, is this question difficult?

"It does seem like that." Simang nodded.

"What does it mean to look like this? Isn't it? I took a look at the system hardware after Niu Ben was refurbished, and the mecha identification code is this, although I haven't been on the front line, but don't think I don't know anything! Su Wei was furious, is Si Mang questioning his vision?

"I mean, you think it is, it is, but it's not all." Simang smiled,

"Because this mecha has been destroyed I don't know how many times, in order to repair it, the parts used are a bit miscellaneous, and even the cockpit is directly moved and transformed from the series heavy machine model."

"Impossible!" Su Wei categorically refused,

"The control cabin of the parallel heavy machine is arranged left and right, although it is a little misaligned, it is also a parallel arrangement of consoles, a console for the main battle, a console for assistance, and it can even be interchangeable in case of emergency. What does tandem look like? That's two consoles up and down! Moreover, the consoles are completely complementary, each performing its own duties, and there is no intersection at all! After Su Wei finished speaking in one breath, she looked at the cockpit she was in suspiciously, and became more firm in her opinion.

With a "swish", Simang just pulled a wrench, and a slide rail appeared in Su Wei's eyes, and at the other end of the slide rail, there was a black square hole, and Su Wei didn't need to look carefully to know that this size could accommodate a seat to pass through.

"Huh? This? Su Wei was dumbfounded. The two cockpits of the twin-engine, two-seater parallel heavy mecha are completely independent, and in case of crisis, two mechs can be ejected at the same time, which is also because such a heavy mecha can almost be equivalent to having two control systems, but it is divided into a primary and secondary.

So, in the event of any danger, the other can go first and will not have an excessive impact on combat effectiveness.

The tandem type is not, because the two consoles are purely complementary, one cockpit is destroyed, and half of the functions of this heavy machine are completely unusable, so the two consoles share a chain of command, and even the cockpit can only be used for ejection!

Of course, these two modes are obviously better than the parallel type, but there is an insurmountable obstacle, that is, technology and cost.

The early heavy mecha did not have such strong computing power to support parallel control, and if it was controlled in parallel, even the energy supply was more than that of the tandem mecha, in other words, although the disadvantages of the tandem mecha were obvious, the cost was cheap, and the failure rate was low, although the scientific and technological content was not as good as the parallel type, but the output was stable, so it was also the main combat model of the Blue Star Federation Army in a long stage.

Now, the parallel cockpit actually has the function of a tandem cabin, and there is even a slide rail, Su Wei suddenly felt that her brain was not enough, her eyes stared at the wrench that Si Mang had just pulled a little distracted, and it was only at this time that Su Wei really realized why she felt that there was a power to give herself a little speed when she was drowsy.

"No way, there is a shortage of materials on the front line, and the mecha cockpit is destroyed and must be replaced, this is the real wisdom of the front-line mecha maintenance division, using local materials, piecing together, anyway, the current chip computing power is enough to support parallel computing, and only the serial cockpit of the heavy mecha needs to be slightly modified to use, and it can also take into account the advantages of both, which is why you can appear in my arms now." Simang smiled.

"Okay, I got it." Su Wei took advantage of the situation and arched her head into Si Mang's arms, her wisdom was forced out by the pressure of survival, but if the mecha mechanics on the front line had a little other way, they would not invent this kind of splicing monster.

Slide rails, wrenches, these kinds of things make Su Wei think of the railroad tracks in the evil old society.

"I knew you were hard, but I didn't expect you to be so hard." Su Wei whispered. At that time, it was Su Wei who proposed the plan to provide all available mecha to the front line for use, just to understand their urgent needs, but the side effects of this are also very obvious, Si Mang is one of the victims, after all, weapons and equipment that have not undergone strict acceptance are likely to have all kinds of potential safety hazards, at that time, Si Mang suddenly lost power in the battle, and then caught fire and burned, all because of some big problems caused by small problems that have not been tested in actual combat.

Now it seems that there is no difference between it and the life of the grass and the people.

"It's okay, they're all here, if it weren't for your decisions and suggestions, our troops on the front line would be even more difficult." Si Mang seemed to see through Su Wei's thoughts, and came directly to comfort her,

"The fighters at the front are more afraid of not taking out the enemy than of dying. As long as it is worth dying, this life can be disposed of casually. If it weren't for the latest mecha in my hands at that time, I don't know how many people would have died in the forward battalion in the battle that followed. There will always be accidents, and what is more important than accidents is whether our mission has been achieved. ”

"Hmm." Su Wei nodded,

"I see."

"Now to answer your second question, which is why you recovered so quickly." Si Mang smiled, reached out and squeezed on the armrest of his seat, and a metal hose came out, with a small needle on the top.

Su Wei felt a little familiar with this thing at first glance, and she suddenly felt as if this kind of thing should not appear here anyway, it must not be what she imagined.

It must be a special kind of seat, not that thing. Su Wei thought.
