From Titan Corporation to the Empire of Man

Chapter 58 “Radical Strategy”

第一道空间门的开启时间为1993年6月5日，第二道空间门则是1994年7月23日，到今天的1995年9月7日，共计过去了825天，相当于两年又三个月。

Over the past two years, not only has Atlas undergone sudden changes, but it has also lost the threat of mimicry. Under the guidance of the United Nations and the United Defense Forces, Earth Zero-1 was supposed to gradually get rid of the haze, but its situation has become increasingly chaotic. , it seems that we are only one step away from world war.

The commander-in-chief of the United Defense Forces (UDF) Europe is the British general Dalton Brigham who stripped William Cage of his major rank in "Edge of Tomorrow" and threw William Cage into the recruit camp. , was sent to a military court by the United Nations due to suspicions of favoritism, abuse of power, etc. during the Human Mimic War.

Even though Dalton Brigham tried his best to defend himself, it was still to no avail. After all, the authorities just needed a person and an event to trigger the subsequent large-scale disarmament.

Although its disarmament results in reducing financial expenditures, the war caused great damage to Europe. Except for the United Kingdom, 70% of the facilities and buildings were destroyed. In addition, millions of unemployed soldiers flowed into normal society, which intensified the situation.

What's more, without the common enemy of mimicry, coupled with many factors such as the unquenchable public grievances, Earth Zero-1 has fallen into a more chaotic situation than before the war.

However, the Atlas branch opened in Zero-One France rebuilt Paris and attracted a large number of refugees from France and Germany.

At a contract price slightly higher than the market price, nearly two thousand laid-off UDF soldiers with rich combat experience were hired. They are the main force used by the branch to maintain law and order and stability.

As the conflict on Earth Zero-One gradually intensifies, New Paris becomes more and more like a pure land.

Atlas, on the other hand, has obtained a large amount of mature technology through the detailed information stored in RDA's Hell Gate Base.

For example, in the underground production base of the Accra campus, the spider-shaped robots flowing back and forth are officially called Hexbots or "Swarm Assemblers."

They have extremely strong mobility, and their bionic structure allows them to climb vertically to every corner, and have many uses such as welding, handling, manufacturing, and maintenance. In "Avatar 2", it was shown that the number of hexagons reached a certain level. Robots can build a building in six days.

This is indeed the case. These hexagonal robots are indispensable for Atlas's ability to rapidly expand its Accra campus and fully upgrade its production lines in a short period of time.

Although Sui Yang opened the second space gate in "Avatar 1", the landing bay of the Adventure Star, which is already an asset of Atlas, contains many prototypes of hexagonal robots, and the Gate of Hell The light factory also has six 3D printing lathes.

If you want to colonize and explore unknown planets, heavy equipment and supplies are essential.

However, the "year"-based transportation route cannot support colonization, exploration and other tasks at all, so the best solution is to be self-sufficient by "using local materials".

RDA’s 3D printing lathes can quickly manufacture parts for vehicles, weapons, robots and buildings and send them to automated assembly lines.

In addition to these, as long as the technology contained in Hell's Gate and Adventure Star has been absorbed, mastered and used by Atlas.

It is expected that early next year, the first nuclear fusion reactor independently produced by Atlas will be placed in the Accra campus to replace the traditional energy supply. However, the research on antimatter is progressing slowly. After all, humans in the Zero-2 universe are just beginning. stage.

The current Accra Park can be described as a large-scale comprehensive base integrating experimentation, testing, research and development, and production of mechanical skeletons, aerial vehicles, and armored vehicles.

As the company's power continued to grow, Sui Yang and his sons' physical and spiritual bodies also strengthened.

However, the rapid expansion of the company's power makes a head-on confrontation between Atlas and Walter, or in other words, the people of the motherland inevitable. So as soon as he successfully seized Soldier Boy and the sample of Compound No. 5, he asked the Bioengineering Department to try to reprogram Soldier Boy's brain and develop temporary Compound No. 5.

However, after the investigators discovered that Vought International was secretly making moves again and was preparing to threaten arms dealers including Atlas, Sui Yang immediately chose to take the initiative.

Instead of studying compound No. 5 on your own, it is better to "get" ready-made data and information.

The purpose of calling the three sons of the original body into his temporary office and calling up the hologram of Earth Zero-1 was to make him and his sons "better" in strength.

now.

Sui Yang focused on Robert and asked in a deep voice: "Robert, the company is about to fully intervene in the situation on Earth Zero-1, so where do you think we should start?"

Hearing this, Robert stared at the hologram and thought for a few seconds, and then looked at Sui Yang to give his personal opinion: "The situation in Europe on Earth Zero-1 is already dilapidated, with countless refugees, and the slow advancement and penetration method is outdated.

First of all, we already have cutting-edge technologies such as the swarm assembler (hexagonal robot) and 3D printing, which has enabled the construction efficiency of the engineering department to increase exponentially compared with last year.

Secondly, we also have weapons and equipment that surpass the UDF, and retired soldiers who are forced to retire and have resentment against the UDF are the best sources of soldiers that can be immediately used by the company.

Therefore, I think the company should adopt a radical strategy. While replicating the case of rebuilding Paris in Zero-One Europe, it should also recruit troops quickly to occupy Zero-One Europe as soon as possible.

During this period, we can try to negotiate with the UDF and the United Nations, deploy air and space vehicles, and arrest or behead generals and officials who react violently during negotiations to deter the UDF. "

"Hmm... um... not bad."

After listening to a series of analyses, Sui Yang affirmed without any objection: "Your suggestion is very suitable for the situation on Earth Zero-1. In this way, you will serve as the Chief Military Officer of Atlas Zero-1 Division." , as the CMO, is responsible for stabilizing the situation of Zero-One Europe and even Zero-One Earth as soon as possible, how about it?"

?

These words not only surprised Robert, but also Sanguinius and Leon.

"What? Don't want to?" Sui Yang asked with a slight smile.

"No." Robert shook his head quickly, "I just didn't expect my father to let me do things independently so soon."

Sui Yang also raised his left hand, put it on Robert's shoulder, and said seriously: "Sanguinius will stay in the main universe to deal with the people of the motherland. Leon is still young, and the third space gate is about to open. Let me have no time to worry about earth affairs.

And you, my son, you are the most suitable candidate, not to mention this is an excellent training opportunity for you to familiarize yourself with the company's business and operations as soon as possible. "

"I understand, Father!"
