Chapter 316, Power Armor Technology

After completing the construction of the army, including the Phoenix Chapter, Gu Hang only had [-] gift points left on hand.

In fact, regarding the army, Gu Hang had another small expenditure.

That is the Black Arrow Army.

The army led by Perbov consisted of five divisions directly affiliated with the Alliance. They were stationed on the Black Arrow Star to help Ness Luman stabilize the situation at home.

After all, the Luman Kingdom's army was basically destroyed in the war a year ago.It is not a peaceful place and requires military garrison.

At the same time, Gu Hang also needed to have an army there to ensure the stability of the alliance's victory in the last war.

However, the huge Luman Kingdom has a population of 4000 million, which is almost as many as the local population of Raging Owl.Although the area is far different, it is unrealistic to completely defend it with five divisions of less than 5 troops.

The Alliance's Black Arrow Army is basically stationed in Pinser City, the capital of the Luman Kingdom.

The defense of the entire kingdom still depends on the Luman people themselves.Only when there are problems that cannot be solved, the Alliance's Black Arrow Army will be dispatched.

Moreover, the number of the Black Arrow Army is not easily too small.

Gu Hang has given Purbov authorization to recruit soldiers in the Luman Kingdom.The corresponding weapons and equipment will be sent to the Black Arrow Army once every six months along with the supply ship between the two planets - mainly relying on Gu's Trading Company.

A lot of the extra personal equipment, artillery and the like will be used to build new troops.

These troops are different from the local troops of the Luman Kingdom.Gu Hang required that when Purbov recruits into the Black Arrow Army, the new unit must be reported to the Alliance Military and Administrative Department and go through the process of establishing a regular alliance army; at the same time, it is required that the initial proportion of officers in this unit should be more than 70% from the alliance; 10% of the total army is Union.

On this basis, the Alliance Military and Political Department will grant this unit an official Alliance Army designation and will be affiliated with the Black Arrow Army.All those who join the army will be given an inspection period and can directly obtain alliance military rank and alliance citizen treatment.After getting the alliance ID card, you can be promoted to military rank and position in the army normally.

The team established on Black Arrow Star has 7 divisions and a total of more than 4 people.Their regulations are based on third-line troops such as garrison divisions.

This is also very normal.

The alliance's elite and heavy weapons and equipment, and its own serious direct troops are not enough, and they also lack transportation capacity, so they were sent to the Black Arrow Star.

It only transports some light weapons and backward towed artillery.At most, there is an even-digit heavy bolter.

Even ammunition supplies and part of the weapons production will fall to the Luman Kingdom itself.

Fortunately, however, one of the G-series small arms production lines that had previously overflowed from Wei Xing City was transferred and sent to Black Arrow Star via shipping.Although the production capacity is still average, it can at least make up for part of the gap.

The training of more than 4 people, as well as the more than 4000 people who were separated from the original direct line troops of the Black Arrow Army, all need to be supplemented for training.

Fortunately, there was no need for Gu Hang to go.

After the establishment of the seven Black Arrow Star garrison divisions, the proportion of direct line officers and the proportion of soldiers in the army required by the [Military Card] system were directly reflected in it.Gu Hang only needs to click and spend more than 400 points of gifts, and the training of more than 4 people can be completed.

...

After completing the training of the Black Arrow Star Group Army, the remaining [-] gift points are the gift points that Gu Hang will use for the technology lottery.

Without saying a word, he first found the completed [Phoenix Checkmate] from the event function, limited the Space Marine technology, then invested [-] points of gifts, and performed six consecutive draws of [-] levels.

The prize pool of the 2.5 levels is already very poor, with only 20% chance of elite level, and only [-]% chance of advancement.

Three out of six were drawn, two at the advanced level and one at the basic level.

This is considered good luck.

The two advanced levels are [Melta Weapon] and [Rhinoceros Troop Carrier]; the basic level is [Individual Rocket Nest].

These three technologies... can be regarded as special supplies for space warriors.Melt is used to give space warriors with strong individual combat capabilities, who can directly inflict fatal damage when facing some big guys.For example, if you encounter something like a Titan mecha, you can't deal with it with a bolt gun or a chain sword, but a melta bomb can deal with it.

It's useful for space warriors.After all, they are really capable of penetrating the outer defenses of these big things, charging into their faces, planting bombs, and then drifting away.

Other troops can also use it. After all, when an individual soldier encounters something that needs to be exploded, conventional explosives are not as reliable as melt bombs.

The Rhino troop carrier is indeed the most commonly used vehicle by all major Space Marine groups.

Compared with the Rambler infantry fighting vehicle, the Rhino is larger, heavier, has thicker armor, and has greater firepower and load capacity.There is also a special interface that can be connected to the Space Marine power armor, allowing these supermen to directly use their consciousness to control the vehicle through the black carapace on the surface.

In other words, in the hands of mortals, this is just a heavy-duty infantry fighting vehicle; but in the hands of Space Marines, such a big thing can produce extremely elegant and flexible effects, and its performance is completely different. grade.

If the mortal army has to use Rhinoceros, it's okay, but it's just a waste.After all, the Rhino costs five times as much as the Rambler.

The same goes for the individual rocket nest. Compared with ordinary rocket launchers, it is larger, heavier, has more ammunition, and has a power armor interface.Ordinary soldiers can also use it, but they have to use a vehicle to install it; and they can't fire it at a thought like the Space Marines, and the accuracy is greatly improved.

These pieces of equipment have strengthened the Phoenix Chapter... I can't say they are not at all, but they are actually not that big.

For example, melta bombs could not be made by the Alliance in the past, but they can be bought, and they are not too expensive; Rhino personnel carriers cannot be popularized in mortal troops due to cost and efficiency issues, but if they are only used on Phoenix, There are only about thirty of them, and four stations are enough.The demand is so low that it's really better to buy than to make.

Only the rocket nest is of some use, but it is not useful for Space Marines. Instead, it can be thrown into the alliance's military industry department, the corresponding control system is removed, and it can be installed on an armored vehicle or directly mounted on a truck to make it vehicle-mounted. Rocket launcher, a type that enhances the firepower of artillery units.

To put it bluntly, it's not that these equipments are not good, it's just that they can't scale up, so there's no need to build them yourself.There are only more than 30 space warriors in total. You cannot buy any equipment you want individually. It is not cost-effective to spend a long time to build a production line just to serve more than 30 people.

Of course, it is still needed as a technical reserve.

Essentially, this problem is not caused by technological waste, but by too few phoenixes.

The core reasons that restrict the growth of Phoenix numbers are, on the one hand, the number of people, and on the other hand, power armor.

Next, what Gu Hang is counting on is the last [-] points of gifts, the lottery on the [-] level.

Among the 60 levels, there is a [-]% probability of extracting elite-level technology.Coupled with the limitations of Space Marine technology, the tactical power armor itself is also elite level.Overall, the confidence is quite high.

Of course, if you encounter the epic technology with a 30% probability, and directly pull out some Terminator power armor manufacturing technology... that would be a bit tricky, and I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing.

Gu Hang geared up, prayed a little, and clicked.

The last [-] points of gifts disappeared like running water, but what was finally obtained in exchange was indeed as expected.

[The fourth generation of 'Great Shore' tactical power armor]

Sure enough, I hit the target!But soon, the smile that had just filled Gu Hang's face gradually faded away.

If you get the power armor technology you want, that's of course great.Now, among the Phoenix, there are several recruits who have grown into superhuman organs and have no armor to wear. Not to mention, he also spent fifteen thousand gift points to train twenty new Phoenix blood. .

These people don't have to worry about wearing power armor.

But the problem was that what Gu Hang drew was the fourth-generation 'Stati' type power armor.

Up to now, Gu Hang had already made up for his knowledge about Space Marines.

He also knew a lot about the situation of power armor.

Currently, the Space Marines in the empire wear many models of power armor, but the various complicated models are probably developed from the basic models of a certain generation.

The most basic Space Marine power armor, it is very clear that there are nine generations.

But that doesn't mean that the newer the generation, the better.In fact, in the past 1 years, let alone power armor, the entire empire has not only not progressed in many technologies, but has been regressing.

The Mechanicum's scientific research mainly relies on archeology. This may not be a joke.After the Great Age, there is a huge gap between the level of science and technology of mankind and the golden age of mankind before the establishment of the Empire; it is even slightly inferior to when the Emperor was still on earth.

Many generations of power armor are still in production, but the output varies between high and low.

For example, probably the most numerous model of power armor currently in service in the empire is the eighth-generation 'Skyhawk', which is the power armor currently equipped by all Phoenix members.

This eighth generation is not the most popular because of its awesomeness, but because of its mature technology, easy mass production, simple maintenance, and pretty good performance. Taking all aspects together, it stands out.

The fourth-generation 'Standing' model that Gu Hang had just obtained was of another type.It has excellent performance, but it is difficult to produce and maintain. Today, there are not many fourth-generation armors left.In some battle groups with a thicker history, this kind of armor is even a 'sacred object' that has been passed down for thousands of years. Only the best warriors can wear it, and it is a symbol of honor.

It is said that some war groups and individual forging worlds still have the ability to produce this kind of armor, but the output is probably very small.

Okay, here comes the question, Gu Hang is now productive here.

In the future, I am afraid that all Phoenix members will be equipped with the 'Standing' type.

Although this is not a sin, it is... it is too eye-catching.

But what can be done?

Gu Hang sighed deeply.

Can I leave it alone?

If there is a problem, we can solve it later.

For power armor, the black box can pull out two units per month.

This is like giving it for free.

In addition, he took a quick look and found that the Alliance had the basic technical capabilities to pull out production lines and mass-produce power armor technology.

Among the previous technologies, those that should be extracted have already been extracted, such as ceramic steel technology, such as compressed energy technology, such as high-energy anti-gravity engine technology...

However, because there are many technical difficulties in the 'Wei'an' power armor itself, even if the production line is built with the black box of the mother machine, the requirements for people are very high during production operations.

The difficulty of mass production will not be small.It is estimated that the subsequent self-production rate will be about three units per month.

The main reason is that although the amount of the project is not large, it requires too many high-skilled workers. Many processes require people at least technical specialist level and above to use production machines to build them.

But as long as it can produce, that's fine.

This works out to five units a month. When this new batch of phoenix blood grows up, it will not only be enough for them to wear, but they will even be wealthy.

The rest can be saved for later use in exploding troops.

If it doesn't work, I secretly sell it. Ordinary power armor costs [-] per set, but it can sell for at least [-] per set - not counting historical factors.

...

Fifty thousand points of gifts will change the alliance quite a lot.

Although the technologies extracted are basically exclusive to Space Marines and do not stimulate the economy that much, military construction and talent development have brought strong development momentum to the alliance.

Moreover, the alliance itself still has great development potential that can be unleashed.Except for the industrial center of Weixing City, in many places, the alliance is still in a state of exhaustion waiting to be revitalized.A large amount of manpower has not yet been fully utilized. A wasteland is in urgent need of people's efforts to rebuild their homes.

When Ossena reported to Gu Hang, she said that she was confident that when the next imperial tax was paid, which would be a year and a half later, the per capita output value of Wei Xing City would be raised to above 3.5, and the global per capita output value would be raised to above 1. .

This also means that based on the current population, the alliance's annual output value can reach 500 million tax coins.

Of course Gu Hang is satisfied with this. His prime minister has promised him a two-year GDP growth target of 20%. Why is he dissatisfied?

What's more, his lady prime minister may have overlooked the difficulty of this commitment.

Because it is impossible for the alliance's population not to grow.

In addition to local policies to encourage childbirth, a large number of immigrants from other places are also indispensable.

When Gu Hang recently went to Koroga 3, he brought a group of soldiers from the Raging Bear Legion and rotated out the troops that were originally fighting on Koroga 3.

Moreover, he also dispatched additional 21st-25th, totaling 5 garrison divisions, plus the 59th Mechanical Brigade, and a large amount of ammunition supplies, and sent them to Koruga No. 3.

By now, the number of Alliance soldiers fighting on Koruga 3 will reach 10.

The name of this fight is to support the battle of fellow human beings and do some small part.

But in fact, what Gu Hang did was the same as other forces' plundering of Koroga 3.

I have tried my best to help you, so it is appropriate to help you evacuate more refugees, right?
