Chapter 277, Irong Falchers
It is true that the alliance does not have the ability to carry out transcontinental long-range strikes, and at a distance of nearly 20,000 kilometers, the alliance's self-produced missiles cannot hit that far at all.
But the alliance doesn't have it, just because it doesn't have other tricks.
Now, among the conventional firepower of the Empire, why not advocate the development of long-range fire strikes on the ground?
There are three reasons: one is that long-distance fire is expensive; Second, the air defense capability of the current science and technology is rather exaggerated, and the interception efficiency is very high.
However, the reason why a weapon has a significant chance of appearing is rarely because there are many natural enemies, but because its role is replaced by another weapon.
Something that significantly replaces intercontinental weapons is orbital strikes.
The Bladed Tiger can help.
In the communication, Yelicia said that there was no problem.
Regarding the information about the blackbird's violation of the smart ban, Gu Hang did not inform him as soon as possible, until his mother's side, the matter was launched, and the parties began to talk, this matter was not too confidential, Gu Hang informed Yelicia.
It's not that you don't trust it, it's not your own person at all. I told her one second, the Fofana family knew the next second, and the next second, I'm afraid Pedesi would know.
It doesn't matter now.
Yelicia was too concerned about this matter, but she just laughed and scolded a few words and said that she didn't tell her a few words and scolded a few words at the first time, there are so many things on the angry star.
In fact, Gu Hang could still feel that this commodore was quite interested.
There is another credit to be gained!
Yelicia excitedly arranged for the Bladed Tiger to move in the orbit of the planet, preparing to launch an orbital bombardment on Blackbird City. On the other hand, Gu Hang began to arrange another hand.
Before Blackbird Heavy Industries launched a missile attack, the alliance received an alert from the intelligence officers at the front.
Although, the alarm came a little late and did not have any early warning effect, and it didn't take long for those missiles to arrive. But Gu Hang didn't forget, they mentioned one thing:
'Missile silos were found. ’
In this case, it is enough to exchange gifts.
Although the alliance does not have the means of intercontinental strikes, it cannot bomb missile silos directly, and the target of the Bladed Tiger is also Blackbird City, not a separate missile launch base.
But the coalition has other means.
Under Gu Hang's order, the wind falcon took off with the immortal bird on board.
……
Heavenly fire descends.
Irong Fates, seated in a metal throne at the top of a tower.
Unlike most of the reformers in Blackbird City, Irong Fatchers's foreign trade has not changed much, and he still retains his human flesh and blood. Only her blue eyes faintly flashed with inhuman electric light.
The top of the mechanical tower, connected to the observation and monitoring at the top, allowed her vision to be raised and distanced.
In her gaze, a blow from outside the planet's atmosphere fell from the sky.
The frigate is equipped with a full-fire version of the 'Reflector' and 'Defender'. This is completely different from the anti-aircraft reflector produced by the Union and the laser cannon placed on the tank. Although the technology used is the same, the power and strength are more than ten times greater.
And the power of the scalpel missile is also several times more ferocious than the ICBM launched by Blackbird Heavy Industries to attack the alliance.
These things are bombarding Blackbird City without reservation.
In the sky above Blackbird City, a blue film of light appeared.
It was a huge energy shield generator, and the first round of bombardment from space orbit was just blocked.
The same goes for the second round.
The shield generator flickered, but did not turn red.
The shield generator equipped with Blackbird City is on the line, and it is not something that can be easily shattered simply by relying on the firepower of an S-class ship.
However, after all, this is just a passive beating. There is no corresponding anti-orbital firepower in Blackbird City, and it cannot be directly hit from the ground into space; There is some orbital air defense equipment, but it is not enough to intercept every round of bombardment from the Bladed Tiger.
To make matters worse, Blackbird City's shield generator, although not small, failed to envelop the entire city. The area it protects is only about half of the entire city. It barely covers the core of the city, but there are still many places on the periphery that cannot be protected.
The Bladed Tiger in the sky also seemed to be aware of this. After two rounds of artillery bombardment were ineffective, they also changed their strategy and began to blast the shelling out of the energy shield.
Soon, in addition to the central city, the surrounding area of Blackbird City began to bloom everywhere, and the flames were soaring.
Irong Fatchers saw clearly.
She knew that this was already a good result. Now, floating in the orbit of the Angry Owl Star is only an old model of Bladed Tiger, which is weak in firepower among frigates. If the previous quintet was replaced, the main cruiser of the Eight Classics, and the wrath of the L-class heavy artillery loyal heir continued to bombard down, not to mention what happened to the outer city, even the energy shield shrouded over the central city might not be able to hold it.
It was her worst fear.
For the family, she was an unappreciated member. There are no special talents, and there is no particularly valued status. Six years ago, Irong, who had just come of age, took a job in the government of Fastes No. 2, and worked for three years without being outstanding or making mistakes.
Just when she wondered if this was the case in her life, spending her life on the Fastces 2 in a way that was no different from ordinary family members, an opportunity was presented to her: the family was recruiting someone to go to the Raging Owl and preside over Blackbird Heavy Industries.
The original presiding officer has retired, and the family needs a descendant to take over the business there.
What was the place of the Raging Owl three years ago? It's a wasteland planet, a poor backcountry where a governor can't pay the imperial tax one after another, a family descendant who avoids it like a femme fatale, and who wants to suffer there?
To put it bluntly, that is, the family carried out an idle chess in a place in the Angry Owl Star, engaged in some industry, made some money, and relied on the former governors of the Angry Owl Star to not collect taxes and have additional income.
Of course, the family did not have the idea of expanding the territory. Using Blackbird Heavy Industries, he continued to expand his influence on the Raging Owl Star, and sought the position of Governor at the lowest cost, and finally included this little planet into the territory of the Fetcher family.
Irong signed up.
In fact, at the earliest, she didn't think about going. The people around her said that it was too bitter there, although the family had a plan but didn't pay attention to it, and if she went, she was ruining her youth, and she was also afraid of it.
But on the one hand, she didn't want to live her original life, although she didn't worry about food and clothing, but she could see the end at a glance; On the other hand, she is also the mentality of trying, and she herself doesn't feel that ordinary people like her can be chosen.
And then she was really chosen.
Maybe it's because the family's capable and valued people don't look down on the place here, and she really has the surname Fastes, and her past resume is honest and well-behaved......
In short, whatever the reason, she became the Fatcher family's choice to head the Blackbird Heavy Industries business.
With trepidation, she came here and started her work.
The business didn't require her to worry too much, and her ex, a grandpa figure in the family, had laid a good foundation and was not a mess. Everything runs as it was when he left, and nothing can go wrong.
However, she still found a problem later.
She is not really a straw bale, and in the internal management, she gradually discovered that something was wrong: the production capacity of Blackbird Heavy Industries was much larger than expected.
The start-up capital and support given by the family are very small; The production conditions here are very poor. According to her common sense, Blackbird Heavy Industries should not have the production capacity she saw as it did.
And she quickly figured out why: under her nose, the automated production line was being implemented day and night. Many industrial workers have long been transformed into tireless mechanical transformers who do not need to eat or drink, and can run according to orders as long as they are charged and given energy.
There is no doubt that this has broken through the smart ban laid by the Empire.
She solemnly called the relevant stewards and discussed the issue seriously, but she found that those people did not think so.
What's the matter?
The imperial ban is a ban, but in the place of the angry star, where can it be managed? It stands to reason that the planetary governors who are supposed to monitor all the abnormal conditions in the territory, each of them doesn't know if they can live for two years, sitting in the revival city in the east as a clay statue, and even their own power can't control it, where can they manage the affairs of the west of the continent thousands of miles away?
The sky is high here, the emperor is far away, and it doesn't matter what you want to do.
What's more, the so-called smart ban, that's a big fuss. It's just some simple automatic machines, that is, to raise the degree of human transformation a little higher, especially to change the brain, isn't that similar to a machine servant? Where will there be a big incident, what kind of intellectual and mechanical crisis?
They really don't believe that those transformed people, those automated machines, will suddenly have a riot one day.
They've been doing this for a long time, and they've been doing it when the last president of Blackbird Heavy Industries was there.
Nothing happened.
Even, those in charge told her that not only Blackbird Heavy Industries was like this, but also the native of the Facher family, on the planet Faches 1/2/3, there were actually automated machines running. It's just that on the planets of the three traditional Facher families, there will always be officials from the empire to inspect, and the situation on the planet is also more complicated, so they don't dare to be too blatant, so they can only do it on a small scale and very covertly.
After all, automated production, this thing for the improvement of productivity, for the reduction of production costs, the effect is too immediate.
At first, Yirong was flustered. Even after listening to the explanations of those supervisors, she felt that something was wrong. She was afraid that once it happened, what happened in the history books and in some legends and stories would befall her.
The wrath of the Empire fell from the sky, burning all the traitors, and she herself was the traitor of the Empire.
But she didn't dare to stop it.
She could see that the specific clerks would not easily agree; She felt that if the relevant violation of the ban was reported to the family, she, as the person in charge, would be the one who would ultimately take the blame and would be cut off by the family; The production quota set by the family and the expansion target set by the family are impossible without the support of strong productive forces, and there is no way to continue to maintain even the current control of the entire continent......
She acquiesced to all this, only asking not to go any further; Then, during an inspection, she accidentally fell to the height of a two-story building, suffered a comminuted fracture of her left foot, and had difficulty recovering, so she underwent a mechanization of her left foot.
This is a normal situation, in many parts of the empire, there are similar mechanized transformations, as long as the transformation does not involve the brain, it should not be too much of a problem.
After the transformation, her mechanical left foot, although it was very useful, sometimes she vaguely felt that her left foot seemed to have its own consciousness.
After a period of time, some cold visions began to appear in front of her eyes, and she found that her logical thinking ability became extremely strong, but instead, she began to feel that she was slowly losing some of her human emotions and becoming more and more flat.
One day a year ago, she felt like she was going crazy, but she was strangely calm.
She picked up a knife and cut the flesh at the junction between her left calf and the machine, only to see that the upper part of the severed limb that should have belonged to her and should not have been transformed had turned into a gray-black metallic thing under the flesh and blood, which should have been white bones!
She should have been shocked, she should have been frightened, but she didn't. She just calmly cut open the flesh and blood on her arms, which should not have been remodeled at all, and saw that there were still metal bones inside.
She broke her left hand again, and inside the bone, there were some mechanical structures, cables.
In her mind, some knowledge appeared that should not belong to her, and she clearly understood that these cables and mechanical structures were the things that supported her body. In the past two years, the transformation of her body has not stopped for a moment, starting from her original left foot, and gradually replacing her bones and blood structure in her body......
She may be outwardly indistinguishable from a normal human now, but in essence, she has become another species.
But Irong Facher didn't panic, she just calmly repaired the smashed arm, watched the disguised flesh and blood grow on their own, and continued to do what she had to do.
She had heard of a new governor coming from the east, and had sent messengers. After learning about the various deeds she had done on the planet, she began to silently make some extra preparations.
The construction of intercontinental missile silos, the construction of shield generators, and the adjustment of the production capacity of Blackbird Heavy Industries have transformed from the original production of products in the list needed by the Farches family to the production of military industry, and the increase of transformation people.
She was preparing for a future that would come to her logical thinking, and now, that future had come true.
