"Is it the advance team of the 2nd Fleet?" the Shuguang Base communications officer's eyes were full of panic.
As a soldier, although the satellite photos of the more than twenty mechas were very blurry, he could still feel that they were definitely not air pirates, but rather...
regular army.
"It's from Jipeng!" Qin Chong took a breath of cold air, his eyes full of seriousness.
"Moreover, they are the elite of the Jiepen people. Perhaps, they are that unit." The intelligence officer, who had always kept a dead face as if everyone owed him a debt, puffed up his cheeks and said word by word. "According to the intelligence.
It shows that the advance commando team of the 2nd Fleet will still need 8 hours to reach Lafite Planet."
"Sound the battle alarm and order all combatants, no, all personnel, to receive combat equipment. Each person has two ammunition bases. The infantry will enter the fighting position according to the previous deployment. The mecha soldiers will not leave their armor and are ready to enter the battle at any time."
After the intelligence officer finished speaking, Qin Chong immediately issued an order for the entire base to prepare for war.
This is not the first time that Shuguang Base has sounded a combat alarm. Exercises like this are held on average five or six times a year. But this time it is obviously different. This is the first time that the commander has ordered non-combatants to receive field equipment.
As the last military base on Lafite, even if it is symbolic, although according to the agreement a hundred years ago, the garrison cannot exceed one heavy infantry company, but the Sparrow is small and fully equipped, except for two infantry platoons and two mecha platoons.
In addition, the base still has auxiliary services such as communications, medical, logistics, maintenance and support according to the normal configuration of a federal military base.
Although there are not many personnel, there are more than twenty people, and there are also four female nurses, one female military medical officer, and two female communications officers. She is the goddess in the hearts of the more than 200 grown men in Shuguang Military Base.
Although he cannot have any real relationship with the goddesses due to military regulations, he can often hear their gentle words and pretty faces, which is enough for these young men who are far away from home and crowds and have strong male hormone secretion.
During normal drills, the female soldiers don't even mention what equipment they carry. If the commander hadn't really looked down upon them, the male soldiers would have been responsible for carrying the exoskeletons that assist in carrying heavy weapons.
But this time, the commander's order is unprecedentedly severe. All non-combatants must also be equipped with exoskeletons. That means that whether they are communications officers, military medical officers or nurses, they are already in the reserve team. When fighting,
When critical moments arise, they must be replenished to the front line.
This is a battle that affects the survival of the entire military base.
However, soldiers are soldiers, and although hearing this frightening military order makes one's heart beat faster at first, both combatants and non-combatants quickly carried out the orders of Major Qin Chong, the base's top commander.
Two heavy infantry platoon soldiers with a total of 50 people were equipped with alloy exoskeletons. In addition to the "Liquan" assault rifle and "Tiger Wing" large-caliber pistol that are standard equipment for individual soldiers, each soldier also carried a
The "Fire Dragon" heavy machine gun that can be supported by an exoskeleton and can fire automatically.
The naming rules of the Southwest Federation's standard ordnance have been re-established since the signing of the shameful agreement a hundred years ago. Individual firearms are named after famous guns and swords from the ancient Chinese era, and mechas are named after the ancient Chinese era when they were powerful.
The starships adopt the names of famous generals and ministers of the ancient Chinese people.
For example, the ship of Chief of Military Affairs Sun Hong is named "Hideo" by him personally, the flagship of Commander Liu Qingyun of the 10th Fleet is called "Pengju", and the flagship of Commander of the 2nd Fleet Qin Luochuan is not his own.
He was born in a slightly low-key manner and was named "Yafu".
The implication is self-evident, it is the hope of the federal military's highest brain organization that one day, the federation can wash away its shame and regain the glory of its ancestors.
Not only is the "Liquan" assault rifle not comparable to the assault rifles used by air pirates, but the performance of the "Fire Dragon" heavy machine gun, which can be assisted by the holographic screen of a soldier's combat helmet to lock targets, is far superior to the "Vulcan Cannon" that has been eliminated.
The Fire Dragon heavy machine gun that can shoot 100 metal projectiles in an instant can even cause certain damage to the "Chu Warrior" level mecha. If it is locked and fired by four Fire Dragon heavy machine guns, even the Tang Warrior level mecha will have to temporarily avoid it.
It's sharp, but you don't dare to stab it hard and let it attack.
100 heavy infantrymen, if they rely on the battle positions in the military base and the auxiliary defense of energy cannons and missiles, can even block the attack of a full mecha platoon.
Of course, the reason why mechas are called the king of battles on the planet is not because of their fierce firepower, but because of their mobility. They are not just iron lumps that will just stand there and let you shoot.
Tuo, they can run and jump under the control of the mecha master. They can fire missiles and ion cannons to attack at long range. At short range, the huge alloy swords in their hands can even split open a half-meter-thick alloy wall.
Under the blade of the mecha, the heavy infantry can only become powder. If the mecha rushes ten meters in front of them, it will be a nightmare for all heavy infantry.
Even with the assistance of exoskeletons, heavy infantry who can maneuver nearly 30 kilometers at a time carrying more than 100 kilograms of equipment are destined to only become the auxiliary arms of mecha warriors in this era.
The strongest combat arms in Shuguang Base are still the two mecha platoons belonging to Zhang Wutui and Ye Xiaozhou. They have already sat in the cockpit and gathered 100 meters behind the two security doors on the left and right of the military base.
Just like the heavy armored cavalry in ancient times, as soon as the commander gives an order, they will rush out of the alloy walls of the military base from the left and right wings to fight the incoming enemies. Moreover, there will be 2o ion cannons and weapons behind them.
Supported by hundreds of heavy machine guns.
According to this configuration of troops, Shuguang Military Base is fully capable of withstanding the attack of a fully equipped mecha battalion.
What's more, the enemies that may arrive now are just a mecha platoon with more than twenty mechas.
However, no one dares to take it lightly.
After sounding the red battle alert, the base's top commander, Major Qin Chong, had already informed the enemy of their possible identity. There was an 80% chance that the incoming enemy would come from that unit.
Jie Pen Royal Special Mecha Regiment.
The most elite force of the Jie Peng Kingdom that has been established for thousands of years and may have suffered defeats but has never lost its honor.
Its combat personnel are the most elite in Jie Peng's army, and the mechas they are equipped with are also the most advanced mechas in Jie Peng's country. Rumor has it that the latest mechas developed by Jie Peng have not yet been deployed on a large scale.
Before they started to be deployed into the army, they had already started trying it out. Before other troops had even taken advantage of it, they had already formed combat effectiveness.
In other words, their mechas are absolutely half a generation or more ahead of the Qin warriors and Tang warriors commonly equipped by the Southwest Federation, which is about the same as Jie Peng Industrial and R&D capabilities.
Of course, no matter how good the equipment is, it must be used by people. The most terrifying thing is not how new or advanced the mecha is, but the mecha master who controls the mecha.
But unfortunately, it is said that the Jepen Royal Special Mecha Regiment wants to be its reserve soldiers, and the starting point is at least an intermediate level three mecha division.
In Shuguang Military Base, except for the two captains and platoon leaders, there are only a few people who can reach the intermediate level three.
After all, they are just an ordinary heavy infantry company on the military side, not an elite or special mecha unit.
