People's Federation will live forever

"Leader, it has been confirmed that the opponent is a hostile life form. Black Hand has defined it as a combat state. My fighters are ready to enter the battlefield. Please instruct!"

Olivia stood up from the command chair and sent an application to Li De on behalf of the legion.And with the initiative of his general, all the black-handed soldiers in the command room also floated up from the console, facing Li De and moving their hands to their chests.

"Please instruct!"

PS: Everyone has complained about the stupidity of the original work, but I think the biggest stupidity is that after decades of fighting BETA, a species with interstellar navigation capabilities, they only researched the G element.

Forget it, a fetish who has opened the gravity control technology line and broke through the theory of relativity is equivalent to the zero element, but they only want to make bombs.

Now, I hope everyone understands the reason why Clarion chose BETA.

There is a BETA setting set here on the horn, and I write according to the setting set.

Chapter 7 Don't think easy, Ensig!

Although there are still many unknown intelligence black holes, one thing is certain - humanity is under attack, and the moon base is at stake.

A dog stands on the way to deep space, and this is the only way.Then, no matter where this vicious dog came from, or who is the owner behind it, a mad dog that bites people should only have one fate.

"...(silence)"

Fighting in a vacuum lacks passion, and even if the author has a literary talent, it is difficult to describe the extraordinary magnificence of the scene without sound.There is only a dead silence in the space, and the relay satellite parked in the lunar orbit is watching the battle on the surface with cold eyes. It is completely different from the battle on the land of Sira - flashes, subtle flashes of light flash frequently on the dark moon, the battle It has become a straightforward way, and there is no aesthetic feeling.

Eight experimental sickle mechas formed a weak line with a total of sixteen cannons. In the open magazine compartment, the belts connected by metal buckles mechanically loaded 35mm explosive shells into the cannons on the top——as Mankind's first low-gravity combat vehicle, the eight-ton multi-legged mecha was forced to adopt many simple and purely mechanical structures to prevent fragile electronic components from being burned by cosmic radiation. Although it has a single function, it has brought unexpected reliability. .

The six iron feet with barbed palms are firmly fixed on the sandy soil surface to resist the reaction force of hundreds of kilograms when the two machine guns fire alternately.Laser aiming, electronic ignition and firing, the circular warhead rotates out of the chamber at 1.2 times the speed of sound with the help of high explosives, and plunges straight into the chest cavity of an unknown life form with little consideration of air resistance and fall——Ling En Sky was very disappointed that these life forms showed adaptability to the outer space environment, but did not show enough defense ability to excite him.

Explosive warheads can smash through their torsos almost by acceleration alone, and then activate the delayed fuze to detonate among the group—the violent explosion of these "high-speed grenades" originally designed to deal with the fluorescent group formed a round circle in the vacuum. The fireball, the oxidizer filled inside expands a hundred times when heated, and spreads hundreds of small steel balls with a diameter of 3mm in the vacuum at the speed of sound, tearing apart the shell of the white creature almost without hindrance, and swaying out the light blue and greenish color in the body cavity. "blood".

"Sure enough, these things don't need oxygen to do work at all... It is detected as acidic? Is blood equivalent to a chemical battery? If it is driven by energy, it can indeed move in a non-living environment."

Combat is not the goal, research is the first!Ensig's eyes are a pair of high-power cameras. He watched and watched the scene of the steel ball tearing the body of the creature in slow motion, and analyzed the density and defense ability of the biological tissue-"Yes, 800 The kinetic energy of joules is enough to penetrate the skin, but it is not enough to cause fatal damage! It needs to reach at least 3000 joules, that is to say, ordinary automatic rifles can also kill them!"

Ensge's analysis makes sense. These creatures seem to have no so-called lethal point after removing the brain.No internal organs were exposed under the tearing wound. If the steel ball didn't just crush the brain as the conductor, or use a large enough wound to unbalance the body pressure and release a large amount of blue-green body fluid to cause "exhaustion" death, their thick The skin will quickly connect at the wound and continue on to the expedition.

The vitality of these things may not be as strong as that of the fluorescent family, but this is space!Without air, the grenades can create the most destructive shock waves to cause surface damage, and the flying steel balls can't even slow down their advancing pace. Those short and thick feet move forward like creeping, quickly narrowing the distance between the two sides to Less than 32 meters.Sixteen cannons can kill 500 at a rate of two shots per second. If a creature occupies an area of ​​two meters, it can create an "absolute field" with a width of [-] meters in front of it, but The oncoming monsters have stretched the width of the battlefield to nearly [-] meters!

If the front is blocked, then the rapidly advancing two wings can form a pincer-shaped offensive to double-team from left to right. These creatures seem to have no plan at all and just move forward in a daze, but the war in Sira taught us that as long as there are many, the tactics of the head are iron. It can also achieve the desired effect.

Modern warfare is a math problem, and unfortunately Ensig has not many solutions.The mech started to fall backwards. Although the rate of fire was not affected by this, the reinforced gun barrel of the machine gun began to glow red after maintaining the extreme speed for a long time-even though the temperature in the vacuum was only 2 Kelvin (-271°C) , but there is no heat dissipation medium such as air at all, which leads to heat retention, and the red barrel indicates the danger of explosion.

"Ah, it seems that I am really not suitable for commanding battles. If this continues, I won't be able to delay for too long." Ensig said to himself, he climbed onto a mecha and gave instructions, and as the mechanical feet lowered the joints, A series of valves at the bottom are opened, and the electromagnetic joint cooperates with the jet of compressed air to drive the mecha the size of a car back into the air!

Since this is a low-gravity environment, what better maneuver than jumping?When setting the target direction, he selected a crater in the distance, which would be an ideal defensive position.

Suddenly, the signal was connected, and Li De's voice was transmitted to the prosthetic body at the right time, but before he could say hello to the leader, the other party almost rushed to ask: "Ensig! Are you among this group of biological individuals?" Found a biped walking, eyes shaped like two searchlights?!"

"Oh? Not at all, leader." Although it was strange why Li De asked such a question, he still honestly reported the observation data, "In fact, I have only encountered one kind of individual so far, and these creatures are indeed extremely Aggressive, but vulnerable, and if there were only numbers of them, I think the Nibelungen's nukes would solve everything..."

When the mecha landed, it took advantage of the low gravity to cover a distance of 400 meters almost instantaneously. It still took three jumps to climb the crater, but the compressed air had already been consumed by almost half, but the bugs were already far away by a large distance. Ensger believed that if he was lucky, he might be able to see the Nibelungen descending from the void, the appearance of the king of the world.

"Don't think about it, Ensig!"

Compared with Ensig's optimism is Li De's seriousness-"The danger of these things is not in numbers! I...was in the field of zero? See how these things destroy a world...although. ..Sigh, I won’t mention it, but they have the ability to evolve in response, although you don’t care, but the moon base will be in danger!”

Territory of Zero?Isn't that an inter-latitude space, can the leader still obtain unknown knowledge from this space?

This news seems to be more exciting than the evolution of alien bugs, but politely let Ensig choose to study it later. When the mecha was jumping in mid-air, Li De anxiously threw out a bunch of information he had never known before— —

These things are called BETA (extraterrestrial origin hostile to human beings), a space mining collection biological robot made by an unknown civilization-this surprised Ensge, not only did Li De know so much, but also He also read some other intelligence from this message.

"What do you mean, Earth? The United Nations of Earth we found on Hyacinth, and a new Earth here? Could it be that this universe has multiple Earth distributions, and there are humans living on it like Sira?"

Ensge fell into chaos for a while. He tried to find the answer he wanted in all the scientific theories he knew, but the result was zero.

"This unscientific!"

He shouted in horror: "Could it be possible for us to return to our home earth one day and face GDI and Scrin again?"

Who knows?Li De's heart is also extremely depressed. Tiberium Earth, Sira, the United Nations of Earth, and now the MUV Earth. Could it be that this universe is a hodgepodge, what will happen to him next, will he encounter UNSC?

"Facing the immediate problem first! What you encounter is the soldier class in BETA, which is the lowest-level biological unit. It is not surprising that it is easy to kill. The real trouble is those large species and the possible existence of light. .”

As he was speaking, Li De fell into his thoughts: The Soldier class was discovered in 1995, and the Great Rift Valley caused by BETA appeared five years ago... At that time, we had just launched the space program. MUV Earth was eaten?Or is this a group of natural migrations?

But since there is a soldier class, there is definitely a light class—"Ensig, Black Hand's reinforcements have already set out to defend the base, but I will never take the risk to join the Nibelungen before I get enough information, because there may be Heavy ray level...wait, your mech is jumping?"

"?"

Ensger didn't know why, but immediately, a high-energy light beam was stimulated from around the rift, like a dazzling spear hitting the scythe mech jumping in the air. There was almost no suspense, and the laser easily ablated the machine armor. The shell of the armor pierced through the center and detonated the ammunition magazine——

"Bugs... can shoot lasers?"

It was just a ray of light, and immediately three more beams destroyed three mechs in an instant. This attack was so precise and sharp that the mechas were vaporized like a scalpel. This made Ensig horrified, and the radio echoed Li De's shout.

"Land down! Look for cover, the moon has a high curvature and their range against ground units will be limited!"

Ensig reversed the nozzle of the mech beside him and fell to the ground almost vertically.I don't know if it was lucky, all the other mechas exploded in the air, and the scattered parts and fragments were like a shrapnel exploding above the head.

The machine body was slightly damaged by the fall and impact—Ensger climbed up from the ground with the support of the mechanical arm. He looked back and saw a group of red beta hexapods crawling towards him. 80KM/H, two extremely long arms are waving wantonly, and there is a huge opening and closing mouth growing under the abdominal chassis.

"A new breed? It seems that I really underestimated it!"

PS: In order to express future battles more accurately and follow the content of the setting set, Bugle may use numbers to build a detailed and intuitive thinking model for everyone.

Chapter 8. What is the key to war?

"I said, there are bad things on the moon, you just don't believe me!"

In addition to the shock of being attacked, Li De also had to face a sullen nano life form——Irena almost rushed into the control room and yelled, she complained that Li De had taken her lightly earlier and ignored her completely. The black-handed soldiers in the control room, who were nervous because of her appearance, said with their hands on their hips: "If you let me go, Ensig's investigation will not fail, and Adam will not be in danger. Those bugs, I am alone People can solve it all!"

But that being said, Irena raised her head higher than the sky, pointed her nostrils at Li De and hummed: "It's too late to beg me now, I will never help you."

A soldier anxiously came in through the hatch and reported to the two leaders with a face of shame: "Sorry, General...we can't stop her..."

Li De rubbed his head and winked at Olivia, who grabbed the little troublemaker and waved the soldier back: "I guarantee Irena's authority, and you don't need to be responsible... Also, Irena, it's our fault, but how on earth do you know these things?"

This is the crux of the problem. Although this unexpected advent of the space program lacked strict pre-reconnaissance, various advanced space instruments have not found traces of Beta. How did Irena do it?

"Well..."

The little guy fell into trouble because of thinking, his eyes rolled around, and he choked out a sentence for a long time-"I felt it!"

An awkward atmosphere permeated the command room. Faced with this answer that was not an answer, Olivia rolled her eyes and almost took Irena out. Only Reed fell into deep thought.

Irena was transformed by Kane using Scrin technology, and countless battle reports claim that Scrin has the ability to attack human soldiers mentally and even control humans with illusions, but humans have never found reliable evidence.

But Li De, a time traveler, knows the existence of "Dementor", which confirms the existence of spiritual ability. Could it be that Irena is a Dementor on her side, and she didn't even notice it?And her so-called feeling, could it be a kind of radar of spiritual power, which indirectly intersects with the collective consciousness of Beta?

Recalling the original work, the superhuman experiment carried out by the Soviet Union on MUV Earth also carried out a spiritual link to beta, but there is nothing to be learned except that beta does not regard human beings as life, but this can also be used as Irena has a spirit Evidence of power—mental power...isn't that the scope of metaphysics?

However, this is something that needs to be considered now.

Li De terminated this endless speculation. He looked at the girl in Olivia's arms, clapped his hands lightly, and turned everyone's attention to himself.

"Guys, we don't have time to argue about anything, and we don't have time to ask the bugs on the moon what they are, where they come from, and where they are going. An attack by a group of unprincipled monsters! And we have never been in the habit of being beaten passively!"

Olivia returned to her usual solemn face, put down Irena, and led all the staff in the command center to greet Li De: "Leader, please give a speech to the All People's Federation. In this dark moment, the army needs targets. People need guidance."

The camera in the command room circled him 360 degrees enough to make his motion capture into a hologram announcing the FWF—15 minutes had passed since Ensig's attack, on this ironic "Space Day" Once again, it was attacked by alien life.People's Federation didn't block the news, even if you don't check the social network, you can guess how big the wave is on the ground.The council would send a report to himself every minute on average, and the tension in his words almost made him think that he was not leading the People's Federation, but the security alliance that faced the orcs more than 1 years ago.

The cloud of war once again shrouded mankind, but this time mankind was no longer a country that was divided and entrapped each other, and they were no longer led by a group of political sticks playing tricks and stabbing their knives in the back, but the entire Supreme Council, a united Consistent, thriving human populations.

However, everyone will say the words of righteousness, but what is the key to launching a war?

"The Supreme Council tells all the people..."

Li De's voice will once again be conveyed to the entire land of Sira. After ten years of development, human cities have begun to spread all over the coastal areas of the mainland. Some of them are built on the ruins of the past, and almost every city A torch made of white marble was built in the center of the city, burning with a never-ending white flame.

This white tower remembers the billions of lives lost in that catastrophe. It contains infinite pain and infinite hope. It is a monument to the spirit of people in the new era.At this time, under the squares of these white towers, people got rid of the Internet for the first time and gathered together in a realistic way.

The leader's speech, and the news from the moon are being talked about in people's mouths - human beings are attacked again, and this time the enemy appears from the moon very close, they block the way of human development outward, and threaten On the mainland of Sira, the parliament will launch a counterattack, which also declares the end of ten years of peace, and the threat of war is once again placed in front of mankind.

Humans never do anything wrong!Li De never tried to create new troubles for himself, but everyone born in this universe is a player in the game, we have no neutrality at all, what should we do?

"We will not sit still. If hardship is the fate of mankind, we will face it calmly. The sky above human heads cannot be desecrated by aliens and evil. If necessary, we will use our swords to fight for it!"

The mobilization for war was issued immediately, like a meteorite falling into the sea, setting off huge waves-Li De did not use any inflammatory words at all, and he did not need them, because the destiny of mankind is already a whole, it has His own life and breath, the only thing he has to do is to awaken its inner value.

Those grown-ups who have experienced the war are all serious. The retired veterans carefully analyze the ugly monsters on the screen, looking for their weaknesses, while the women lead their children with their husbands. They have worries in their hearts, but their faces are but have no fear.This confidence comes from the ever-changing development around them, and even more from the war eagles roaring in the sky-the defense force has already begun to mobilize, and the call-up of the reserve force began a few minutes after the incident.This time, no human weapon will fall on the people's heads.

Children born in the new era still have a rough understanding of war—the moon and monsters sound more like exciting sci-fi stories. Before their parents even spoke, their immature voices sounded first.

"We will win!"

It is even more emotional to say such words from the mouths of children under the age of ten. These children who were born in the new era and grew up under the Xinghuan banner have every reason to feel confident. They are the future of Renlian, and Li De is willing to spare All hope to protect, and as time goes by, they are also growing in a better direction.

"Just like ten years ago, the leader will bring us victory. In a few years, I will also be able to take over my father's position and participate in a triumphant triumph in front of the Parliament Building!"

The young parents of the child looked at each other, and when his wife said: "Kamin, why don't you talk about it?", Kamin, who was less than thirty years old, hugged his son on his shoulders and reprimanded him:

"If you guys are going to go to the battlefield, where will my father face? Leave these things to adults. What you have to do is to grow up quickly and protect your mother and siblings. As for these monsters...your father The ones I knocked down are not one thousand but eight hundred, and it doesn’t matter if there are more!"

The first key to war... "is to inspire the confidence of the people."

Beside Kada Peak, the stairway to the sky, stands a fortress of steel and boulders.Located in the general command office in the core area of ​​the fortress, Wu Wei grabbed his military cap and pressed it on his head. He turned and walked away from the hundreds of square meters of command array in front of him. With precise steps, he passed through the command line. There was a steel gate, and a biting cold wind was blowing in the corridor - there was already a group of people waiting for him in the wide passage.

The silver-gray double-breasted coat covered the close-fitting armor suit inside, and the commander's gold star shone brightly on his shoulders.He inspected the group of veterans waiting in front of him, their resolute eyes met, and they all conveyed the same message.

He slammed the saber in his hand on the cold ground, made a muffled sound, and then began to call names one by one.

"The Chief of Staff of the Joint Defense Corps, Admiral Milan."

"The commander-in-chief of the Guardian Guards, Admiral Hoffman."

"Steel Talon Mobile Armor Division, Lieutenant General James Carter."

"Special Tactical Operations, Major General Carnifek."

Following Wu Wei's roll call, all the shining soldiers raised their hands to salute, and then—"Add myself, and the entire defensive army is mobilized. The horn of war has already sounded, and we have to go back to our old ways. "

Wu Wei said with emotion, no one feels relaxed, because they don't know much about the enemy they are going to face, but the enemy is already close in front of them, and...

"The people are calling for the army, everyone, just like the song sings, it's today to be generous and righteous!"

He said so, but in his heart, like Li De and General Olivia on the track, he silently recited the second key item of the war——

An army, an army that can win.

(The temperature has dropped sharply, everyone must take care of your health, the horn almost caught a cold.

Friends who have started school, I wish you can make progress in the new semester, whether it is academic or other)

Chapter 9·Friendship in Arms

The third key to war - logistics and troop delivery.

Li De released the No. [-] battle plan for beta at the first time, which completely abandoned the research on the enemy's action purpose and motivation, and rejected all the proposals of the "social research" of the creature by the Ministry of Industry and Research and the General Staff —— Li De is very clear that any attempt to contact, control, and reverse use of beta is nonsense.

Although these proposals are all logical considerations, after all, apart from myself who knows everything about beta, the first contact with extraterrestrial life is a huge shock to human beings. The fluke mentality will always make people fantasize about communicating with each other even after being attacked possible.This is particularly evident in the Ministry of Industry and Research. Dozens of scientists proposed to Li De to study the possible "language" and "body communication" of this species. Maybe it is just a misunderstanding that they attack humans?

But he will never repeat the foolishness of Showa Red Deer (Decision Plan 1). He threw the sentence "I will leave the body to you" to the scientists, and then took over the war machine of the People's Federation with his absolute authority, demanding All armed forces - don't waste any time and resources, concentrate all forces and do everything possible to take an extermination attack on beta, regardless of means and without reservation!

"'Eternal City' issued a warning to the advance base on the moon. The alien life species, tentatively named beta (an extraterrestrial origin life form hostile to human beings) is operating at a place 320 kilometers away from you. The team led by Dr. Ensig The armed forces of the expedition team are on the verge of being wiped out, Dr. Adam Phoenix is ​​evacuating towards you in a vehicle, the straight-line distance is [-] kilometers, please respond quickly, repeat, respond quickly!"

After the announcement was broadcast throughout the base, a fist smacked heavily on the thermal insulation wall made of thin alloy plates, causing the collision alarms in the room to go off.

"F**K!"

The veins on Bud's forehead popped up, and he cursed at the image on the screen.His anger can be understood, and Sharman on the side—the two finally came together after the war and had several children, which is really gratifying.The wife came over to see whether it was the injured hand that was more serious, or whether the wall needed to be repaired more, and she comforted her husband as if reproachfully, saying:

"People in their 40s are still so impulsive... You are the top person in charge of the base now, how can you let everyone rest assured to listen to your arrangements?"

"Yes, yes, I understand, it's my fault." Bud sighed and hugged his wife, "The leader personally led the reinforcements over, but this damn distance, and our pitifully small space The fastest support will be in eleven hours...Eleven hours, my dear, we have to go through these eleven hours alone."

"There is also the rescue of Dr. Phoenix. For the sake of the leader, he is Marcus' father, so we can't ignore it."

Sharman added that suddenly, an emergency communication came-"Director Bud, Minister of Security Marcus forcibly activated the shuttle, and we can't stop him!"

"Marcus?" Bud was shocked, and then flew into a rage again, "This bastard is disobeying orders again! Damn...how can he go alone and connect me to the communication!"
