People's Federation will live forever

The second lieutenant struggled to stand up with his guns—they didn't have enough authority, but it was the first time they saw the rumored "Secret of the Supreme Council". these few survivors.The originally unstoppable monster was slaughtered like melons and vegetables by this new "monster". The scene was so horrifying that one could doubt that this was a dream.

"Are you looking for my sister? But I'm not!"

Irena seemed very happy to be misunderstood as her sister. She looked around, and suddenly looked upstairs, as if she had found her target——until now she still didn’t know what “coordinates” meant, but if she could see If she had seen the color, she was sure that she saw the sun that appeared in the dream.

"I'm sorry, I overslept and caused so many of you to die."

She patted the second lieutenant on the shoulder and stuck out her tongue: "However, it's all right."

"Ask why? Because I'm here!"

"The fort is under siege."

When the jet of the hoverbike sank to the ground with the silver-gray power armor, a whole team of special forces wearing heavy armor appeared next to the convoy as if descending from the sky.Rows of armored vehicles and trucks carried the soldiers who rushed back from the lunar junction. More than 500 people—five times the strength of the fortress garrison troops—finally appeared within the visual range of the battlefield.

They can see the artillery fire not far away, the railgun barrages fired from the Nibelungen and the lasers that intercept these barrages, and they can even see the fortress crawling with betas like ants, and countless radio waves calling for help. The public channel was shut down, and the defense line was crumbling.

The armored vehicle opened, and Colonel Malashenko poked his head out and saw Major General Kanifik, and hurriedly saluted the general.

"There is no time, Colonel, lead your men to press up, the fortress needs our help."

Kanifik raised his hand to the sky, and the wristband transmitter fired a shining signal flare, not only a light, but also a broadcast to the defenders of the fortress——

"Reinforcements have arrived, and the counterattack begins!"

Chapter 50 Two Worlds

It didn't take much time to fly over the Bering Strait from the Kamchatka Peninsula. The Il-62 passenger plane took off from Petropavlovsk-Kamchatka and headed eastward in the dark night.

The strait of only a few hundred kilometers separates the two continents of Asia and America. The icy waters of the Arctic Ocean are like the dark iron curtain, separating the two powers for nearly half a century.

This was once the forefront of the confrontation - the shadow of nuclear war has long shrouded the world, and it may happen at any time.Although some people naively think that the times are different, the two great powers have joined forces to fight for the future of mankind and resist the invasion of beta.Their leaders smiled and shook hands in front of the media, and for the first time ever, the president of the United States agreed to lease Alaska to a former rival to give the Russians a chance to regain their homeland.

The unity of all human beings will surely overcome all difficulties - "Idiots talk about dreams."

In the cockpit, the officer of the Ministry of Internal Affairs wrapped in a coat shook off the ashtray, his eyes on his hooked nose narrowed slightly, hiding in the shadows under the big cap: "Hold them, it will be Soviet airspace in 5 minutes, they To be provocative is a violation of the Alaska Act, and our Pacific Fleet is not a show."

The pilots were arguing fiercely on the radio, they had long been used to the arrogance of the Yankees—the visitor claimed to be the Coast Guard, and even if they were not aware of their hostility to such a Soviet aircraft that obviously harbored secrets, they would never give up looking for it. Chance of trouble.They made an excuse to patrol the coast, but everyone knew that since Alaska was leased, except for the area jointly managed by both parties, the Sixth Army of the United States was not qualified to approach here at all.

"They did it on purpose."

The KGB representative opposite the colonel said—this is nonsense. The intelligence war between the two sides has intensified in recent years, and the calm on the surface cannot suppress the blood in the dark.The secret agent looked at the black briefcase next to the Colonel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It contained the most important information for the motherland at the moment, and the pressure to carry it was greater than the glory.The colonel would have liked to have brought some armed guards, if he hadn't wanted to make a big show of it.

At the same time, the KGB in front of him made him feel very uncomfortable, but it was not easy to attack.The other party saw his disgust as if he could read his mind, but he grinned: "Comrade, we are all working for the future of the motherland and the people. You can rest assured that I am here to ensure that this secret is not obtained by the enemy." For...like, do you really think your encounter with the Yankee was accidental rather than deliberate?"

The spark died out, and the smoke drifted in the cabin, blocking the sight of the two of them.The colonel sneered: "You have behaved like this since the 20th National Congress, everyone is a traitor. We have our own inspection procedures, and there are no lies in the eyes of ESP capable people. It can be said that we are much cleaner than you... "

"It seems a bit too ironic for your Ministry of Internal Affairs to say that our safety committee, Colonel... No matter how strict the procedures are, they are all operated by people, and risks always arise from this, not to mention, Yankee's eyeliner is not necessarily It's people."

The KGB opened the curtains and glanced at the American fighter jets that had been abandoned because they approached the Soviet airspace, and said disgustedly: "Now they are just suspicious, we were spotted by satellites and radars when we flew together, and every move is under the surveillance of the Americans! "

"In order to regain the country, we can only endure it now." The colonel involuntarily grabbed the black bag beside him, "We have already seized an opportunity to change the fate of the world, and we must not miss it no matter what!"

Whispers from the stars, crossing the distant space and having an intersection with an ESP ability user in the Soviet Union!This news has been strictly blocked by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and has been repeatedly verified by the Academy of Sciences - the text information sorted out by recording the brain waves of the experimental subject Aenea is no less than the first atomic bomb exploded by humans. After nearly 30 years, this The plan that was originally born to communicate with alien civilizations has finally returned to its original track, not just creating a group of decoys to lure betas.

This time, the Soviet Union will communicate with a "friendly" advanced civilization on behalf of the entire human race. Judging from the documents, this civilization has great power, and the representatives of this civilization quickly understood the behavior of the experimental subject Aenea and invited her to be a friend --friend!A friend of an alien civilization, the value contained in it is beyond the colonel's imagination, and his only hope is to send the document to leader No. [-] as soon as possible.

The future is still in the future, but it is foreseeable that the choice plan will have more sufficient resources in the future, and its own power will also increase...Then, it is not surprising that the KGB behind the spy in front of him will interfere with the choice plan because of jealousy No, the most dangerous enemy is always outside.

The passenger plane gradually descended from the clouds. Before the landing gear opened, the colonel glanced out and found a huge base under construction. He blurted out:

"Yukon base? Has an agreement been reached?"

---

On the moon of Sira, the tragic fighting began to reverse after the arrival of the reinforcements - when each "werewolf" raised the launcher, thousands of honeycomb missiles exploded and the flames covered Beta's head!The shock wave released by the Tiberium warhead with an intensity 20 times that of TNT violently bombarded the ground, and countless monsters were shattered in flames in an instant.

Light-level interception is only a drop in the bucket for a very close-range saturation strike, and then, the black watchmen who followed the barrage from the sky and landed in the center of the shelling, accompanied by the thick smoke from the oxidation of the Thai nuclear warhead, these heavy equipment wearing super-heavy power suits The mechs raised their large railguns and fired electromagnetically-accelerated dense shotguns at the surrounding betas!

Heavy armored soldiers, as special forces that used to be anti-tank, have been modified to fire split arrow-shaped bullets in addition to slug bullets.The heavy armor with a height of more than two meters is the "Terminator" model that Marcus once stole from the warehouse. These big guys formed an arrow-shaped array and rushed a bloody path in the sea of ​​insects from the moment they hit the ground. Their efficient killing is worthy of "" Under the leadership of Major General Kanifik, the Black Watchers did not bother, and aimed directly at the Rays who were still intercepting missiles——

It was easy to change offense and defense, and the rushing guards spread out wide wings to double-team from the left and right. They rescued the base defenders who were retreating with broken lines of defense, and then relied on a large number of sickle mechs and Scorpion tanks to form an unstoppable frontal firepower. Push it forward!

"There is no need to save ammunition!" Commander Malashenko's words are the voice of everyone, "Success or failure depends on one action, for the dead brothers!"

Tanks and betas collided, missiles, grenades, and even plasma reflecting colorful sunlight bloomed enthusiastically. Although the battlefield was still silent from the perspective of Li De on the second floor, the fury of the soldiers was like a huge wave, which could be seen with the naked eye The speed pushed the battlefield flat, unstoppable, and unstoppable, the torrent of steel ran over the tide of flesh and blood, and the blue-purple beta blood soaked the surface, dyeing the fortress in indigo.

Stepping on the piles of corpses, a group of people slowly walked to the breach of the fortress—reverse push, literally reverse push, the battle situation reversed within half an hour, and after paying so many sacrifices, they finally I saw the dawn of victory.

Olivia's hands holding the long knife were already scarred, and the metal prosthesis was completely exposed outside the armor.She drove the blade into the floor, and behind her Irena leaned forward so her sister could rest against her.

"The fortress is saved."

Li De said, and then sighed—even though he couldn't sigh at all: "But it is equivalent to damage. If the wormhole is not completed, reconstruction will be a nightmare."

"War always fails to meet people's wishes~ But I think it is acceptable, at least we survived!"

Cole chuckled, and Bud on the side agreed, while Marcus sat down on the edge of the cliff, and said with a complicated expression: "Then, we can prepare for the next battle."

"..."

No one dared to imagine how many casualties would have occurred if the reinforcements hadn't arrived, and if Irena hadn't woken up in time.And Irena, who believed that she had a responsibility, buried her head on Olivia's shoulder embarrassingly, and no longer showed off what happened to her in the dream.

However, Li De won't let her go—"Irena, the person you met in your dream... If I'm not mistaken, is it called Aenea?"

PS: Because MUV has moved the fighter codes to tactical aircraft, it is difficult for me to write the names of fixed-wing aircraft.

If sensitive words are involved, look for a replacement~

Chapter 51 Element Zero

A fusion warhead buried deep in the ground triggered a chain reaction, and the road for the betas to raid the fort in a straight line was completely blocked by lunar geological movements, and it was already a few days ago.The People's Federation won another round of victory, but the victory came at a price—the direct or indirect casualties reached more than 700 people, accounting for almost a quarter of the entire lunar garrison, and the loss of supplies was countless.

When the transport fleet from the Eternal City arrived, it was already 13 hours after the battle ended, and the devastated battlefield was like hell.The mountains of beta corpses shocked the recruits who first set foot on the moon. The base they were supposed to be stationed in had been severely damaged, and the only thing they could do was to follow the veterans step by step to search for the bodies of the dead. in stomach.

"The moon is hell."

Colonel Malashenko looked at the large group of recruits who vomited in their helmets because they couldn't bear the nausea, and shook his head with a wry smile.Looking directly at the cruelty of the battlefield is the first lesson for this group of recruits. No matter what rhetoric they have made before participating in the operation, it is for their benefit to cool down a little.

The colonel didn't know that his words were transcribed and sent to the ground by war reporters. With this as the headline, the whole People's Federation was caught in a big debate about the latest progress of the lunar battle-not fighting or not, but How to fight, because just now the People's Federation paid the price for its blind optimism. If the two leaders hadn't been in charge, the soldiers of the guards were desperately afraid that the monsters would have turned around and attacked Sira.

Therefore, someone proposed to use nuclear bombs to burn the entire lunar surface, and it doesn’t even matter if a part of the moon is blown up—isn’t the lunar surface a hell, then let the betas be trapped in this hell!There are also engineers from the Ministry of Industry and Research who proposed to lay a refracting mirror with a radius of several thousand kilometers in space, and use focused sunlight to bake the dark side where beta is located. Who knows if he has considered the strength of the material.However, although there are such unreliable suggestions, the attitudes from the top to the people are the same-this battle cannot continue like this, and it must be resolved once and for all.

"Once and for all... how is this possible."

In the conference room of the council, the holographic image of Li De shook his head greatly at the request of the council. He raised three fingers and explained one by one to the members of the seat—

First of all, they misunderstood the existence of beta. They are a group of cosmic miners rather than an invasion army with a clear purpose. They will only mine all the planets they can touch step by step. There are undoubtedly betas on other planets in the galaxy, and the war cannot be resolved in the short term.

Secondly, the People's Federation has been able to determine where beta came from—"It's just 25 light-years away from us, the solar system that was descended by space 5 years ago."

Li De's words caused an uproar in the council, they discussed with each other, these were not secrets to the council, but it proved its credibility from the mouth of the leader.

The sound in the meeting room has already exceeded the upper limit of the regulations - no wonder they are so surprised, anyone who knows that there is a family living next to their own house, or the kind that suddenly flashed in the past, will go crazy. 25 light years can't tell whether it's far or near, but since beta can come over, then...

"With the random 'space sinking', what will happen in the future? We will never have peace."

A congressman covered his face and sighed, and Minister of Justice Siegfried gave him a blank look. The minister, who was ashamed to be with cowards, stood up. In addition to asking Li De what the last point was, he asked his own question:

"Leader, we already know that there are betas in other planets in the Sira galaxy, or in alien galaxies tens of light years away, but this also shows that there are other civilizations that are fighting like us, right?"

Since beta is a group of miners who act according to the program, they are the sworn enemies of all carbon-based civilizations... "If there is a common enemy, is it possible to form an alliance with them?"

Li De let out a "huh" and appreciated the Minister of Justice's proposal and his own idea of ​​going together, but after thinking about it along this line of thought, he suddenly hesitated.

My understanding of MUV comes from film and television, and I don't know what the reality is.If you tell the House of Representatives what happened in the original work, will it aggravate their despair?

After all, it's not a normal world there, and it might be better for Renlian to do all the work by itself if we expect to join forces with them.

but...

"In fact, there is still a lot we can do. I have already had initial contact with that world."

Li De said, and then it was like a bomb detonated, its shock wave swept across the meeting room and shocked everyone's heart, the managers of the People's Federation could no longer be quiet...

For the study of this phenomenon, scientists call it "the whisper among the stars" - taking Irena as an example, Olivia discovered that Irena had awakened the ability to read people's thoughts at some point, And this ability will be strengthened with G elements around.

Long before the war broke out, Irena discovered the spiritual energy of beta on the moon, and then this ability was strengthened when she approached a light-level corpse in the laboratory, and even crossed the interstellar distance to meet another life with the same ability resonated.

The above is the explanation of this phenomenon by the science department. Up to now, the function of anima has not been able to interfere with the physical world and become a legendary ability. Ensig gave it the code name of "Astropath".Besides the conjecture of anima, the essence of many problems returned to the G element extracted from the light level.

"Secondary experiment No. 70, the target of the experiment - 1.05 grams of unknown elements."

Like a crystal clear crystal slag wrapped in a strong magnetic field in the laboratory, Ensig, Adam, and Karen, two of the most talented scientists of the People's Federation, stood in front of an operating table, and the young Karen served as an assistant. Responsibilities: "The test results show that this substance is not naturally produced. It is conjectured that it is a special recombination product of beta. It has abnormal radioactivity and low decay rate, and it is extremely destructive to organisms. It requires a level 3 or higher level of protection when handling it."

"The alloy mixed with this substance exhibits the properties of a room temperature superconductor, with a ratio of [-] to [-], and its strength is not affected. When energized, the metal price and electrons move slowly, and electron embezzlement occurs. The conversion cost is far higher than that of solid metal hydrogen."

The scientists couldn't help but sigh, this is simply a dream material brought by the enemy, which proves the technological level of the beta creator.It's a pity that Renlian still doesn't know how the G element is produced, otherwise the progress brought about by large-scale use may be beyond imagination.

But this is not over yet, if the pure G element is used to connect the current——

"A gravitational anomaly has been detected in the core area... system, emergency power off!"

The central area surrounded by layers of bulletproof glass suddenly collapsed, as if creating an artificial gravitational singularity, a small black hole, the powerful gravitational force spreads out in a radial manner, and the glass that can block 40mm grenades does not even make a sound. It was broken into slag, and together with other collapsed substances, it was wrapped into a solid sphere!

It wasn't until the emergency power failure that the gravitational wave didn't destroy the entire laboratory—Ensig got up from the console, his computing and processing system had completely recorded the data just now, and he was quickly summing up the rules at this time.

"This is...gravitational control! Positive electricity increases the mass, and negative current decreases the mass. Just now, it is a mass effect field that continues to expand under high energy, smashing everything around it from the molecular structure."

"The instrument recorded a tidal movement in the strength of the Higgs field. Just now, the entire space was distorted!" He said, "But the energy applied just now has accelerated the decay of elements. To continue the experiment, we need more many..."

More... This is troublesome, because the extraction of this element comes from ray-level corpses, and each ray-level requires soldiers to take risks to capture it, and the Renlian currently cannot mine/synthesize it.

But its value is too great, too big to resist.And the three scientists all thought of something else—it was originally a war of last resort, but the unexpected harvest brought extremely high benefits. Will this drive the People's Federation to become more active in the war, and even fight for the war? What about war?

The three scientists looked at each other, and Adam, who was pacifist, changed his face: "We must find a way to produce this element by ourselves. We can't let people repeat the mistakes of resource wars."

"When I was studying wormholes, I used a lot of slow methods to bypass the gravitational restrictions, but this... is called the G element? It can speed up the progress of my work."

Karen said, and Ernsger shook his head—

"G (Graves) element? An inexplicable name. Naming it with a person's name instead of a system does not conform to the scientific principles of the People's Federation."

"Since it interferes with the Higgs particle a lot, let's call it...element zero!"

Chapter 52·Second Army Construction, Stars and Seas

A good day starts with the wake up number at [-]:[-] am.

The recruits woke up from the dormant cabin under the double attack of the electronic signal and the yelling of the non-commissioned officers. After a night of indoctrination, they thought for a few seconds with their drowsy heads——what are the flashbacks in my mind? What?Before they woke up and put on the light armor that was too bulky for the recruits, the non-commissioned officers who checked one by one found out those who were too slow and arranged for a new increase in training.

Then the sergeant kicked their butts and rushed to the training ground: "What's the matter, it's for your own good!"

This is the price of peace for a long time. After ten years of peace, it is not an easy job to train a group of civilians who live in a stable life into qualified soldiers.What's more, the military power of the People's Federation has developed to a new level. Soldiers not only need to know how to fight, but also learn many new technologies that are constantly emerging-starting from daily running exercises, they need to fight in a new day. Digest the tactical knowledge instilled in their sleep by the dormant cabin, manipulate new types of war weapons and conduct weakened "actual combat", thanks to holographic images, it is better to use it to train recruits than to use it for entertainment games.

The cloud of war still hangs over the People's Federation, making people breathless.After many battles in the lunar war, especially the tragic fortress defense battle, more reform demands were put on the conference table, and the bloody numbers reminded the meat eaters that the population of the People's Federation is only one million, and our soldiers Your life is more important than any equipment!

"Distributing death notices for more than 400 people at once...in the past this was insignificant, but now it is enough for a national mourning."

The Chief of Staff of the Guards submitted the plan, and the commander-in-chief Wu Wei tapped the soft electronic paper with his index finger, drew a report into the table and displayed it with a projection: "We give every soldier education, training, To equip them, to invest a hundred times as much material as an engineer, but this is for victory, not for him to sacrifice in vain... The sacrifice can be handed over to drones, we have minerals and factories that produce tens of millions million drones."

"Beta is just a group of biological machines. If soldiers with spiritual consciousness can replace them, even if the battle damage is [-], we will be at a loss."

As the hatch opened, Li De's voice entered the conference room before anyone else.All the generals stood up to salute their leader, and Li De went directly to Wu Wei: "Commander, I can't miss your meeting...I just inspected the orbital dock of the Eternal City, and it's time to proceed. Phase one is arranged."

When the generals heard this, they knew that the brand new fleet was about to be completed, so they couldn't help thinking about the ownership of the fleet.However, Li De not only brought the fleet, but also information about the lunar war.

Since the end of the fortress defense battle a month ago, the People's Federation has almost gone crazy and sent a large amount of materials to the moon regardless of the cost, and the ancient rocket launch was restarted regardless of the inefficiency.The engineers carried out emergency repairs to the fortress, and then fell into a wait of more than half a month——

That's right, wait, "Black Hand conducted a difficult reconnaissance of the beta lair. It seems that beta has left too many troops in the fortress and suffered heavy losses. It may not be easy to refill these lost materials from the poor moon. So right now we're powerless to attack the nest, and neither are they. We're all like gladiators after a bloody battle, staring at each other and trying to catch our breath."

"The victory of the war depends on who recovers faster." Wu Wei took Li De's words, and then put forward his brand-new idea, "Leader, regarding the reform of the organization of the battle group and the official installation of unmanned equipment, The staff has a whole package..."

On that day, the People's Federation's military reform plan was released and approved by the leaders. Because of its huge influence, it is called "the second army building" among the people.It can not only help the author reduce the burden of writing, but also announce that the People's Federation's regular army has been completely upgraded from the traditional army to the pan-space army, and the roles can be better arranged in the future.

First, the ground troops of the Guards are organized in regiments, canceling the division of infantry, artillery and armor in the past, excluding special departments such as the Air Force and Black Watch, and changing them to a company model. Every ten companies have a regiment and [-] soldiers. It will be divided into fifty compound battle groups.

Second, the dismantling of the battalion - the progress of the war gradually requires the top commander and company commander on the front line to exercise tactical flexibility, and it is no longer acceptable that a basic tactical support needs to be reported to the battalion commander in the rear for deployment.Useless departments were abolished and merged. Taking military rank as an example, non-commissioned officers will be responsible for leading soldiers at the grassroots level, lieutenants will be responsible for front-line command, school officers will be responsible for overall management, and generals will be responsible for strategic deployment in the theater.

This was impossible in the past, but the situation of the People's Federation is special. The reform of the Guards also included the inclusion of drones that performed well in actual combat into the organization-a team of 12 people, on average, each soldier can command With four drones, the guards have a strength of 20!Soldier bee or scythe multi-legged drone armor, a large number of consumable drones have raised the basic firepower of the battle group to a new level, and the MCV attached to the front line can continuously replenish losses. We have stepped into the quality The gates of war!
