The timing of Tian Bang's laughter was somewhat inappropriate, which aroused everyone's attention.
Probably... The video conference interface was hard to see, but this time he reflected in time and raised his hand to signal: "Sorry, I suddenly got distracted."
Black Lion looked at him sideways, this was very obvious: "What's wrong?"
"That fork, that fork in the road."
Tian Bang seemed to want to explain seriously, but his still suppressed smile made his sincerity somewhat compromised. He also glanced at Liujia beside him and said hello in advance: "Brother Liu, I told you not to be angry.
"
"...Oh." Liujia looked a little distracted, probably because he was surprised by the sudden recruitment behavior, so he just responded casually.
Tian Bang then said: "When I saw Lieutenant General Joseph just now, I thought of the legends in our circle...I mean the ones circulated in the army."
"The legend about Joseph?"
"Contains the... limerick of Lieutenant General Joseph."
Tian Bang laughed and talked, no matter whether others were interested or not, he just shook his head and chanted:
“Smiling Joseph is cold-hearted, he is victorious in every battle and has no peace of mind.
"Flying bears on outlying islands don't touch the ground. Let's see who has the money by the fire."
After reciting, Tian Bang spread his hands and said: "So, for recruitment, are you going to pay for it? Do you have money?"
The reactions of the extraordinary beings were hard to describe, and Yuan Wuwei, who was listening in, almost laughed out loud.
He can testify that there is indeed such a crooked poem in military circles. Some of the words may be different, but the basic meaning is still the same.
The crooked poem involves the three current extraordinary bosses in the military:
Joseph, Anton Sheng and Shigeru Kumagani.
Lieutenant General Joseph was the most familiar to him. He was a capable and calm man, but he did not show much power on his appearance. In fact, he was very strict in managing the army. There were many rumors in the army that some even said that he was mean and ungrateful and did not care about the soldiers.
As for Liujia's boss, An Dongsheng, he was in the battleground of Ancheng, surrounded by enemies from both sides. No matter how firm his face was, he still had trouble sleeping and eating.
There is also Shigeru Kumagai, Yuan Wuwei is also common. This was originally a big boss in Sakagawa City, but was driven away by the Amaterasu Order. He became a monk halfway and joined the military. However, he stayed in the Ceres Base forever and could not return to Earth for many years...
The expression in the crooked poem is inevitably somewhat ironic.
However, the key word in it is still in the last sentence:
The so-called "money" refers to military spending.
These three extraordinary bosses are all in the military world, and they are all in the spades sequence of the extraordinary deck. They are ranked as the queen of spades, the ten of spades, and the four of spades. Their strength may be different, but they feel that they have no essence.
Apart from this, these three have one more thing in common:
I'm just strapped for money.
Just like Lieutenant General Joseph, a man like that, really doesn’t know how to care for soldiers? To love soldiers, you also need to have money!
Don't look at the number of aerospace battleships known as "the most cutting-edge crystallization of human technology" under his control, which can drive these experiments.
What is a big toy is not a fusion engine, but a huge amount of money that is burning every second.
And military spending on earth is limited. Compared with the empty and boring extraterrestrial space, the real threat of the wilderness has more reasons to allocate funds...
Therefore, Tian Bang’s suspicion is still reasonable and valid.
Of course, it would be pointless to refine it further.
Many people would say that Antongsheng held up half of the sky in the northwestern region of East Asia with the power of one city and made great military achievements. Logically speaking, the military equipment and treatment should keep up, but why is he always so embarrassed?
In this regard, the spokesperson will say: There are 88 large metropolitan areas, each with its own market conditions. It is too difficult to coordinate and allocate military expenditures globally. It is better for everyone to raise some daily expenses by themselves...
As for Kumagai Shigeru, strictly speaking, he is still controlled by Joseph. He has no money even if he goes to the peak. What else can he hope for?
The above reasons actually make sense. But the problem is that some things really can't stand comparison.
Don't you see the word "fire" in the last sentence of the crooked poem?
The so-called "fire" is the fire of the pattern, and it is the one who burns.
Once this element is added, some things become more subtle. You must know that according to the public documents of the Star Alliance Committee, major military science and technology research institutes and weapons manufacturing companies around the world undertake and invest in the Burner and corresponding Deep Blue Walker platforms every year.
"Public R&D funding" has increased by more than 10% every year since 1990; at the same time, total global military expenditure has only maintained a growth rate of 1-2%...
Not to mention that military expenditures in other directions have been squeezed out. Although the investment is huge, it has fully stimulated the vitality of capital within the military and outside the circle, leveraging amazing social forces. This efficient R&D model, favored by capital, must of course be greatly promoted and greatly
promote.
Dark Blue Walker and Burner are destined to be the mainstream of the future army, and are undoubtedly the direction of military construction.
So, don't compare, there is no way to compare.
Why did Lieutenant General Joseph come back this time and have a special job, which was to select his personal guards, and the proportion of them that needed to be upgraded to Burners, or expected to accept the transformation of Burners?
This is the guide.
And this kind of guidance is never empty talk, but has real policies: add a Burner and the corresponding Deep Blue platform support, and the big governors who are responsible for voting on the military construction budget will allocate corresponding support funds.
Once it comes and goes, won't everyone be happy?
Of course, whether Lieutenant General Joseph is really happy behind his gentle smile, and whether the matching money can warm up his cold heart when the money is burning, is a matter of opinion.
The general situation is like this until someone shows up.
Well, by the way, who is the one in the middle of the deep blue cluster?
Yuan Wuwei had doubts about this.
I imagine many people are like this.
Yuan Wuwei also knew that what Tian Bang said may not be true; whether he was laughing just now because of this crooked poem was also a matter of special concern.
Suspicious. But no matter what, it would be difficult for others to open his head and find out the truth. They can only look back.
Monroe coughed and did not let Tian Bang continue to use his crooked poems. He forcefully dragged him back: "What is going on over there in the camp, does General Tian know?"
Tian Bang is the commander of the camp. Even if there is interference from the sacred space and communication is poor, he should have other channels for information.
"Indeed there is."
Tian Bang didn't even stumble, he had obviously already got it in his head: "The news from over there is that there was indeed a fight just now. I mean, in addition to the conflict between the clown and Archbishop Lanier, it is suspected that those underground
The underground space dug by the toothed crocodile has experienced energy shocks.
"It's very short-lived, and it's mixed with the vibration of the high-energy jet in the underground cave. It's hard to distinguish...that's all. As for whether it's Nick or not, what happens next depends on everyone's imagination. The Air Force says it is.
Well, basically it’s not wrong.
"Instead of discussing this, I am more curious. Did the person in front receive this recruitment order? Will he turn around?"
This is a good question.
Several extraordinary species were very interested in discussing.
Gao Wenfu took the initiative to answer: "Judging from the current situation and the state of the severed limb... maybe it's not necessary."
"Enter Raven?" Shakal seemed to be quarreling with him, but also seemed to be purely confused about this.
Li Baizhou was looking forward to it: "Broadcast live to the whole world, how do you kill a supernatural being?"
"Hey, he's Nick!" Black Lion said in a very exaggerated tone.
"It's okay for Nick, but the water tank is more troublesome.
"Guys who are not afraid of death are troublesome."
In just a few sentences, the discussion of extraordinary things has entered the most practical field of "life link".
As we all know, Nick and Water Tank, two dangerous people who enter the block sequence at the same time, have a "symbiotic" relationship and have a unique "Life Link" type BUFF:
As long as one party doesn't die, the other party can survive no matter what. The most they can do is rest for a while and then come back again.
"Nick is here, the water tank theory will be somewhere else... the Atlantic Ocean?"
"Someone can do global positioning, maybe it can be done in one go."
"Theoretically it's possible...The problem is, even if it's possible on Earth, what if it's not on Earth?"
This is a good question.
Dealing with Nick and Water Tank, a pair of strange symbiotic extraordinary species, is not just a problem with the symbiotic chain. Although the earth is large and the extraordinary species are strong, under the iron will of the military government, they will kill the two extraordinary species at the same time at all costs, and
It's not an impossible task.
But everyone knows that beating a dog is easy, but the master behind it is the biggest trouble. Moreover, what the "master" can do is not only shelter and support, but also the means to prevent the "Iron Will" from continuing to become "Iron".
