People's Federation will live forever

Don’t worry about too many, it’s enough for everyone to remember the last theory of “compressed biscuits”.

Chapter 25. The Man Who Watches the Death

This disaster has already come before human beings—if there are two very close solar systems around us, then the question of where beta comes from is no longer a question.It is not difficult to penetrate this level of relationship, but the trouble is the suddenness of the "plane fusion", which leads to the Supreme Council having no time to take countermeasures, making the war come so suddenly.

We all know that information travels at the speed of light. When we see a galaxy 100 light-years away from us, we actually see it as it was 100 years ago.

The nearest solar system next to the People's Union suddenly appeared ten years ago, so theoretically speaking, it is 25 light-years away from Sira, and we should have 15 years to see it, but the fusion of the planes allows the spreading light to It has passed through, causing people to watch it as if it was there in the first place.Watchmen called this phenomenon "space sinking", but Li De chose to ignore the essence and look at the phenomenon, analyzing all this from a pragmatic perspective.

If we say that in the past, human beings were babies in the cradle, unable to even move out of their nests in this vast starry sky, and the faint cry could not be transmitted into the deep dark forest.Now it is different, a baby room is full of cradles, which will inevitably attract the attention of predators, not to mention that some "individuals" in these baby cradles are wolves in sheep's clothing, mothers parasitized by aliens, their Presence is itself a mortal threat to other babies.

People's Federation, what should I do?Thanks to Li De's eternal insecurity, we staggered out of the cradle, our noises were louder than other babies, and our arms were stronger, but not in a way more than the predators of the void. A target?

"You are not qualified to know these secrets, but the leader always has inexplicable expectations of you." General Olivia concluded. She couldn't hide her disappointment on this point. The general really couldn't understand what is unique about these three people. Yes, there are a lot of excellent soldiers, so why do they always take such a fancy to a few of them.

"The 'Silver Ring' defense system is called defense, and it also includes a complete set of interstellar military industrial systems, space colonization and all necessary measures, even if everything we do in front of us is for it, for the survival of mankind You guys, to be honest, I doubt how much awareness you have."

"of course!"

Cole rubbed his fists and said: "Whoever they are, come and beat as many as you want, let them see the brute force of the locomotive!"

"I wish I were as optimistic as you are."

Bud covered his face and said, now he understands why these are secrets that cannot be "completely disclosed". A beta will make people's nerves tense, and they will tell the people what happened outside before finding a solution. God knows what will happen What an extreme change.Regarding the general's question, Bud spread his hands: "Although I am very grateful that you think highly of us, at least you have to give us an instruction manual and tell us what to do, right? It's such a big secret, we can't guarantee that any of us will leak it out." ..."

"Hiding it all the time is not an option!"

Marcus scoffed at Bud's appeasement thoughts, and scolded Li De, "Do you still want to hide it for the rest of your life? Let's see what will happen if Wei An hides the orcs? If you want to prepare early, you must let the people know the truth." ! Let them unite..."

"Watch your attitude, Marcus Phoenix!"

General Olivia was furious, and she was rarely so angry: "If we want to repeat the mistakes of Vian, why call you here?"

"Renlian's family background is not strong, and time is too tight. So far, the population has not yet reached 200 million, and the alien enemy is overwhelmed within a month. Why? Because we can't afford to lose! Humans have not yet established absolute self-confidence , we can only be cautious, at least defeat the enemy in front of us before we can talk about further things!"

Li De took the words and asked General Olivia to rest first. After all, they didn't gather them today to argue about these things—"So you are a soldier, Marcus... unite the people, and the slogans are very It sounds good, people are cowardly and brave. If humans can unite in the face of the same enemy, then what is going on with Wei An?"

Without further ado, Li De brought up the "glorious" deeds of Wei An, thinking that the unity of interests can unite the hearts of the people is naive.Do you want Li De to suppress it with an iron fist and break the oath of human beings never fighting among themselves?

After dismissing Marcus' naivety, he throws out his terms:

"Your team exists for this purpose. I summoned you to serve as my direct troops, and form the defensive means of our People's Federation with Black Hand and the first echelon of the Guards. You will have the best resources. and the toughest missions against possible future threats."

The three of them looked confused: "Why do we have to?"

Because I am different from ordinary soldiers, I want the aura of the protagonist on you!Originally, he wanted to bring Dom in, but I'm afraid it would hurt him instead-of course Li De would not say these words, but he was never worried that they would refuse.

"Because there must be someone who watches over death." Li De said, "to prevent or replace more sacrifices."

"You don't have this ability, do you want us to send recruits to the most dangerous battlefield?" This was General Olivia's answer. Although the anger was still there, the general already understood Li De's intention.

The strong must be responsible. The road of the People's Federation is only now truly opened. On this thorny road for the future, no one can choose by himself.There are powerful unknown enemies ahead, and people who need to be protected behind. Even the most half-hearted Bud knows what to do.

A long silence is an embarrassing thing, but Li De can afford to wait.Although they have no choice at all, let them take that step themselves, and the future work will be much easier.

"I guess, there is no trophy this time, right?"

This is Cole, who had nothing to worry about and he agreed quite readily. With his statement, the remaining two have nothing to hold back.

"I hate the secret department, and I ended up becoming a secret department myself? What a joke!"

Having said that, but from another perspective, wouldn't it be possible to play a role in the most critical occasions?so...

"Thinking about it, it's not that bad, I'll just do it!"

As he said that, Bud patted Marcus on the shoulder: "Don't even think about going home to farm... After all, we can't do anything else except this."

Marcus silently looked at the starry sky above his head. Although it was not obvious, he saw the few shining spots approaching the moon. If he guessed correctly, the expeditionary force was about to land.There must be a lot of old comrades on it, but there is definitely no shortage of new recruits like Carmin who have not seen war. The scene of those young comrades dying in front of him seems to appear before his eyes again.

"I do."

Chapter 26 Expeditionary Legion

The information of the first human battle against the moon has been transmitted to the mainland of Sira through various channels, and many things have happened during the nine hours from the expedition to the moon.Thanks to the almost complete coverage of the administrative network, the basic labor force of the People's Federation - minus most of the children born after the war who were less than ten years old, a total of 60 people were organized.

According to the law of the People's Federation, no matter what their status is, citizens themselves have the duty to obey and deploy in the war against foreign enemies, and the defense legion also announced the expansion of the army. The total number of the first batch will reach 5, returning to the orc war The highest level, and depending on the situation may increase to 20 to enter the general mobilization mode.

And the Council promulgated the "Wartime Management Law", which takes precedence over all civil laws and regulations, and is jointly implemented by Siegfried Minister of Justice and the military.In this regard, the people in Sylvan expressed their emotional stability. First of all, the adults of the People’s Federation have all experienced strong winds and waves, and the leader’s first "victory" in the battle on the moon boosted their morale and let them know that the enemies they have to face are not those who started the battle. Instead of aliens with advanced spaceships and laser-shooting eyes, they are a group of damn "locusts".

Then there is the production——

The industrial sector will stop the production of all non-essential consumer goods, and luxury goods will be completely banned to ensure the efficiency of resource operation.The industrial system of the People's Federation has gone deep into the inland and deep sea of ​​Thira in the past ten years. Although this double-edged sword was abandoned in order to prevent the already fragile ecological environment from being swallowed up by Tiberium, Tiberia This is not a long-term solution.It cannot grow in a vacuum, which is of no help to the future development of the universe. Its value itself is the destroyer of habitable planets. Perhaps only the Scrins can use it unscrupulously.

But it doesn't matter, Sira itself already has an advanced mining industry (Im who has dug into the mantle layer), and it is even more powerful when combined with the technology of the Parliament.From the rolling mountains to the 24-meter deep sea, there are Renlian factories everywhere.Despite the energy poverty, the minerals of Thira were unaffected.Mining, beneficiation, and refining have all been automated, a large number of drones have replaced personnel, and fusion furnaces with remote power transmission allow factories to operate [-] hours a day. Countless unmanned cargo tugboats travel to and from the coastline, adding bricks and tiles to the war machine of the People's Federation.

Since the plan to establish a star port on the moon failed, the "Silver Ring" was regarded by the council as the last hope, and a large-scale orbital factory project was approved. They will be committed to building a gravity-free factory near the Eternal City. Covering the nano-forge, solar power station and orbital hydroponic cabin to build a space star port supporting facilities, through the experience of the Nibelungen, the Industrial Research Department quickly came up with a warship plan called "Red Sun"— This will be a standard ship that can truly carry military personnel. The first batch of projects is expected to reach 4 ships to form the "core fleet."

It is definitely a happy thing to own a planet, which is also the cost of launching so many projects in one go.Huge production capacity combined with a small population truly achieves distribution according to needs.Originally, the People's Federation has entered a prosperous cultural age, and the fusion and friction of the cultures of the earth and Scylla have inspired many geniuses and creativity.But now these "artists" may have to change their thinking. Except for most of them being recruited by the army, the remaining outstanding talents are gathered by the council to boost the morale of the people in the war.

"What contribution can you make when the entire human race faces challenges?"

This kind of soul torture has appeared in every city of the People's Federation, and when talking about how to further awaken the people, General Wu Wei, who came to inspect, gave instructions: "Then let the masses see with their own eyes what our enemy is. , which is more useful than any publicity."

Immediately, military facilities called "holographic training halls" began to be planned in various gathering places, which were said to be for military use but open to everyone.The data collected from the lunar surface will create a simulated anti-beta operation here.Sira was already a martial artist, and a child could easily assemble a cavalry-style rifle before the age of five, but Li De didn't even expect that this unintentional move would cause such a big change in the future.

People's affairs will naturally be handled by subordinate departments, but the current moon is not calm.

Without him, the expeditionary force has arrived.

Looking up from the lunar base, the seven approaching spaceships have changed from a small point in the past to a shining thing dragging the sun's brilliance.Renlian’s space barges are still rectangular in shape, carrying terrible potential energy. They are approaching the moon. The fusion engine at the rear of the spaceship is reducing its output, and the deceleration engines at the front and surrounding sides are fully powered on. It is estimated that it will take [-] kilometers to decelerate. to the category of safe delivery.

But it's not entirely true, lotus-shaped airborne pods were released from the belly of the barge and flew towards the lunar base first.Although the acceleration of gravity on the lunar surface is negligible, the process of decelerating these "paratroopers" is enough to make the fighters in the cabin face an overload of tens of Gs, and those who dared to make such a risky move in the first batch of expeditionary force sequences Undoubtedly only one force.

"Damn it, what are these gangsters pretending to be!"

The soldiers of the Guards who were under the lower deceleration and overload in the cabin of the barge already knew the heroic performance of their peers from the terminal, which made them, especially the commander of the 100-man company Malashenko, extremely annoyed. And he scoffed at the risks the mafia faced.

"The matter of orbital airborne is the old profession of our guards! We and them just lack a set of anti-G suits!"

The airborne capsule originating from the heavy equipment fell to the ground, and despite the deceleration of the engine, the falling airborne capsule still hit the lunar surface like a piece of iron.The buffer layer was completely scrapped, the shell of the titanium alloy airborne capsule was severely deformed, and a landing field was completely destroyed. All this made the Delta team watching from the armored vehicle extremely curious.

"Why waste the return capsule, are these things worthless?"

Li De shrugged: "It's really not a valuable item, but..."

"The barge must be lightened. If these things are not useful, it is better to use them as scrap metal for the lunar base. Soon we will have all the necessary resources."

But for the commander of the Black Hand, it might as well be an exercise to enter the battle state.When the six-sided hatch of the airborne cabin opened, a large amount of air was sucked away by the vacuum, and heavily armored soldiers in black armor grabbed the edge of the hatch and landed lightly.They wore power packs and carried the tried and tested particle beam rifles.

With the experience of serving in the Eternal City, the soldiers of the Black Hand adapted to the environment of the moon quite quickly. Although they did not have the assistance of attitude regulators, they still bouncing around and lined up neatly on the desolate moon.The commander of this unit, Miles Executor, walked from the back of the team to the front row, and saluted Li De in the armored vehicle directly in front.

"Leader, all 80 members of the 'Educator' company have arrived. Where is our enemy?"

PS: I'm sorry that it took a while to update this point. Some real things are bothering me, and it's hard to concentrate on coding.

No more nonsense, I will get back to the state as soon as possible.

Chapter 27 Frontal Attack

The builders of the People’s Federation don’t have nothing to eat. Our property on the front side of the moon is not just a large base. The supporting facilities established for the operation of the base are scattered all over the surface. Kilometers count.Automatically operated radar centers and geological survey stations are scattered all over the place. In order to coordinate and manage them, the Ministry of Industry and Research also engraved the latitude and longitude of the moon.

This work is not new at all, and there is not even the slightest difficulty. The two ends of the moon's rotation axis are the poles, and the longitude is the central meridian on the side facing Scylla as the 0 degree line.The Silver Fortress is located in a large crater a little southeast of the quasi-zero degree. Based on this, the moon can also be artificially divided into four intervals, southeast, northwest, and precise positioning.

On the other hand, the beta that emerged from the northwest section completely divided the entire area into a war zone. In order to accurately express the operational requirements, the entire northwest section was divided into 24*24 large blocks and the corresponding small coordinate coefficients were displayed on the terminals of the support troops. Among them, and will appear in the text for a relatively long time.

In response to the possible devastating blow to the silver ring system once Beta moves the heavy ray level to the front of the moon, the Supreme Council issued the No. [-] order to fight against Beta.

"At all costs, it is our task to contain these monsters in the dark side."

The task is clear, and once it is clear, there is no need for any doubts - the executor Miles is contemplating, or is he meditating?This habit has been developed in him for ten years.Ten years is not a short period of time in one's life. At this time, Miles is no longer just the rookie who was promoted by General Olivia, and the Black Hand is no longer the armed sect that it used to be.

The congregation also experienced the baptism of the new society after the war. The reformers headed by Myers were named "educators". The Black Hand's armed forces have grown considerably.Just like the team he led this time, it also has a rather complicated composition of personnel.

Some are people who have suffered a lot in the orc wars. They were captured by orcs and tortured. They gouged out their eyes and cut out their tongues, and even had their frontal lobes removed and became walking corpses.People's Federation saved them, healed their bodies with advanced technology, but still could not heal their spirits. They struggled in pain every day and could not return to society, so they chose to join the black hand sect that saved them to find their own salvation.

The other is the offspring of sinners, especially the offspring of the ogre cultists of the archipelago.Under the leadership of Li De, the People's Federation adhered to strict moral standards. Their fathers were all executed. It may be too harsh to cut grass and roots, but they were also sentenced to a lifetime punishment-this kind of cruelty does not sound like a modern society. It will happen, but objectively, the blood feud makes it impossible for them to be accepted by the council.

Miles, on the other hand, believes that the duty of the Black Hand is to serve the cause of mankind to the best of his ability, so he is keen to educate these people.This undoubtedly angered the conservative faction. Those "purifiers" drew a line with him, and declared that the responsibility of the purification fire is to burn it out, and then Nirvana. The struggle between the two factions is in the hands of General Olivia. , and make meaningful arrangements.

"Executor Myers, teams one to four are already in place."

Miles opened his eyes, and following his movements, a group of jet-black fighters got up from the ambush point together.The fully-enclosed space combat suits covered them tightly, and there was not even a little light from the indicator lights.They followed Myers to another part of the crater, a faint arc flash from their electromagnetic thrusters, floating instead of walking for the final deployment.

The position built on the back slope of the crater is sloppy. Due to the lack of heavy weapons, there are no firepower points. In fact, it is not necessary. The tactics are based on the enemy. Useless.To put it bluntly, the pocket array arranged by the black hands can only be used to deal with the mentally retarded in the military, and concealment and ambushes are also worthless-most betas do not see things with the naked eye, but a kind of unknown performance Biological radar, close combat is basically the only attack method, and they don't have to consider the enemy's bullets, so they gave up all the extra armor in exchange for higher mobility.

"Attention, the school of fish has bitten the hook."

This is the most remote area in the southwest. There is a communication base station that has been deployed here for a long time. Unlike other facilities that have been dismantled and evacuated, this place is still in operation.Since the Delta team successfully evacuated, Beta, which had been digging silently in the dark, seemed to smell blood. The sharks began to act more actively. They began to spread their populations to the front, searching around for border base stations like this .The Supreme Council didn't know how far the detection range of these biological machines was, but there was no doubt that there was a kind of guidance in the dark to make them move in the right direction, approaching the Silver Fortress step by step.

And in the eyepieces of Miles and others, some mixed figures appeared from the moon horizon, some were red and some were white, and their speeds were different, and the multi-legged ones were faster than the two-legged ones , but did not follow the logic of human beings to make the little ones cling to speed up their maneuvers on the chariot level.The creatures marched on, as hideous as the newspapers said they were.

The long-term education received in the religious order made the soldiers feel a sense of disgust from the bottom of their hearts. Some soldiers had already raised their long-tube particle beam rifles to their shoulders, and the invisible laser beams were aimed at the incoming enemies from a distance. enemy, and a reticle appears on the eyepiece with increased magnification.

"Listen to my instructions and move closer." Miles said in a deep voice, "Recalling the leader's teachings! These creatures will not make a big move every time. The hundreds of attacking ones can only be regarded as scouts, and once we open fire, we will kill them." will attract their armies."

From the point of view of intelligence, there is no slow soldier-class attacking, but a biped running individual with elephant-trunk-like tentacles dangling above its head.Ensger had seen it before and had a high opinion of the power of this "fighter-class" individual. Myers checked the team's firepower configuration again and determined that these individuals would not pose a serious threat.

The lead tank class is already approaching the base station, and their speed is impressive.These monsters slammed into the base station's titanium alloy shell, as if they didn't care about being damaged, but they just used their seemingly slender but extremely powerful arms to knock down the base station's shell, violently twisting the metal plate and stuffing it into the big hole in the abdominal cavity. mouth, gobbled it up, and reached out to tear off the sparking circuit cables. The high voltage seemed to have no effect on them.

Miles raised his rifle: "The leader is right behind us, and the defenders are also watching us. As the vanguard, we must not embarrass the sect!"

Suspension of updates

The time for writing is intermittent, and the double update that I promised everyone has not been done recently. At least 3K for one update is not enough, and I don’t have the confidence to ask for leave, but I still want to ask everyone for a leave.

There are always peaks and troughs, but there will be a rebound no matter whether it hits the bottom or the top. I am also calm and deal with things one by one.

The National Day is approaching, and the streets are full of national flags. I should also buy one for my home.

Chapter 28 Frontal Attack

The red chariot class was the first to demolish the communication base station. The physique of these monsters was much stronger than they looked. Whether it was a titanium alloy plate or a solid steel bracket, they were deeply twisted by the two slender arms like a vise.The civilization that produced them was undoubtedly advanced in biological technology, and the huge mouth under the belly of the chariot seemed to swallow metal effortlessly.They eat almost everything from the shell, the towers of the base stations are snapped off, the long cables and antennas suck like noodles.

Soon, more betas also rushed up, forming a tight circle around the base station.However, they are not ignorant of the black hands ambushing in the highlands of the crater mountain. Those fighters who can't reach them rushed towards the hillside with big strides. They maneuver quickly.

Miles was the first to stand up. He had no other weapons in his hand, only a reliable particle beam rifle-as the most mature directed energy weapon of the People's Federation, it did not rely on supplies like live ammunition. A thick pipeline extending from the bottom is connected to the isotope battery box behind the hard space suit, which can ensure more than hundreds of shots.

The particle beam, which proved its worth as far back as the Ork Wars, has continued to serve this decade because its good design didn't even need to be improved - laser weapons, which are power hungry, rely too much on focus time and are not really suitable as individual weapons , and live ammunition... the weak supply capacity of the lunar surface is not enough for the guards, and the live ammunition on the airless lunar surface purely relying on kinetic energy also loses its brilliance in the atmosphere. Ensig has proved that the damage of fragments to beta is very limited. These But they are all bastards with the ability to heal, the best way is to give full play to the black hand's old skills and burn them all to ashes!

When the first incandescent particle beam was excited, the 19 soldiers who followed Myers also pulled the trigger.They lined up in a wide front, using a barrage of high-energy rays to hit the betas who were advancing side by side on the hillside head-on.The rate of fire of the particle beam rifle is two rounds per second, and within a short breath, hundreds of beams have been fired from the front——

Regardless of whether it is thermal energy or kinetic energy, at the microscopic level, it is only damage to the molecular structure.A particle beam contains more than ten digits of charged particles, which is the same effect as its cousin laser, when the tens of millions of photons condense into a single point, it will generate huge pressure on the target surface.To explain it in an easy-to-understand way, it is like an elephant stepping on the tip of a needle. The terrible pressure will force the molecular structure of the target area to break and dissociate, resulting in a high temperature phenomenon. A steam explosion!

Their body fluids expanded rapidly due to the high temperature, and their tissues were torn apart.A fighter-class head that was hit, its elephant-trunk-shaped head exploded from the middle, and the only means of attack was deprived, followed by the phenomenon of electron transfer brought about by the charged particle beam—it would be destroyed due to bioelectrical disturbance. Out of control, the nerves were burned and completely paralyzed to the ground and lost function.

As for the larger tank level, every shot of the particle beam can tear off a part of its body, especially the raised head on the body—that may be the tank level sensory organs without eyes. Under the precise shooting, the black hands were burned into coke and then further focused fire to completely wipe them out.The volley of particle beams all over the sky interrupted Beta's charge. At this time, a black hand took down a large-caliber long tube device from behind, and on the soldier's back was a bag filled with a colorless liquid. Jars, he pointed the barrel forward, waiting for the commander's order.

"Team A, check the rifles for cooling down by group!"

Miles first lifted his rifle and opened the heat dissipation valve. The liquid nitrogen tank attached to the rifle began to spray out mist gas, and it began to expand rapidly when encountering high temperatures—there was no air medium for heat dissipation in the vacuum, and the accumulation of heat energy Soon it will reach a height that destroys the equipment.

And when the black hands began to take turns to dissipate heat, the frontal firepower began to drop. The beta group that had dismantled the base station seemed to have only had a three-point meal, and began to turn around and rush towards the hillside.The speed of the chariot class is as high as 80KM per hour, so that the barely [-]-meter-high slope can break through the black hand's firepower network in less than five seconds!

The slow fighter class made way for the chariot class, and the scarlet front trampled over the corpses of its own kind and continued to move forward. At this time, the black hand's squad had completed the cooling down, and the rifle shoulders were not waiting to be fired, only by Meyer Si took the lead, and 19 soldiers chanted loudly in the communicator——

"May the fire of purification burn brightly!"

Soldiers carrying long-barreled weapons strode out of the position, bearing the brunt of the swarming betas.He took a deep breath, and the container on his back began to continuously pressurize the barrel. As he pulled the trigger, the laser array in the weapon activated and burst into dazzling brilliance——

Deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen, is the tritium needed for fusion power plants.The lunar base had obtained a large amount of reserves from Sira earlier, but no one thought that it would become one of the most important weapons on the lunar surface!The laser array instantly heats the rapidly pressurized tritium to 9000 degrees Celsius plasma, and the burning plasma is like a blue-white fire dragon hitting the menacing chariot-class group head-on, and the fan-shaped eruption covers the Hundreds of square meters of space under the hillside.And the soldier made a fine-tuning of the nozzle, and the tightened confinement force field concentrated the plasma erupted in a large area into an endless "beam" long sword sweeping across the battlefield, and everything it passed was subject to the "sticky" force. The plasma embraces tenderly, and it clings to it in a constant heat release.

The rock will dissolve, because its boiling point is only three thousand, and the hillside becomes a glass field after the volcanic eruption, and the scorched black surface reflects the colorful brilliance of the plasma incineration cannon.The charging chariot staggered under the flames of plasma and was finally reduced to a charred mass.

And the price of using such terrible weapons is also tragic. These weapons that should be installed on larger vehicles will expose the shooter to high temperatures, and the aggravated armor will not last for a long time. extract.All this resulted in a spectacular eruption that lasted no more than four seconds—one of which the soldier managed with willpower.
