Era of Chaos 457 October 27.

The eastern battlefield of the Haoyang section.

Sun Siqiong sat in the commander's mecha, paying attention to the battlefield situation on multiple interfaces in the hemispherical screen in the cockpit.

A large number of rock tanks were fighting at the mountain pass ahead, and both sides had fought for forty minutes.

The wreckage of the tank was about to block the intersection, and he could only shoot each other with cannons through the mountain. The wreckage was constantly generated, and was blown up by heavy artillery, and finally pushed away by new tanks and piled up on both sides of the road. Titanium steel and burning wheels were consumed in this critical place.

The distant gullies crisscross the earth and fog rises, floating in the sky, and shadows are drawn on the battlefield. The occasional nuclear explosion, the rising airflow will cause the low-altitude cloud flow to disorder.

Fourteen days ago, Sun Siqiong's Corps arrived in this war zone, and now his base has been built.

The twenty-meter-high barriers are endless like city walls, and the bright energy cover spreads out in the sky like a transparent umbrella.

Titanium Steel's ultra-long heavy artillery, shells fell from the sky, and hit the protective cover to create halo ripples. As for Titanium Steel's ground-mounted flight cruise missile group, they can bypass the protective cover, but are swept away one by one by one by one by the fire of near-defense guns on the outer ring of the barrier.

Some fish that escape the net will burst out violent flames on the city wall, but they will only drop a layer of skin on the huge defense and will not shake the city wall. The construction vehicles in the base will quickly repair the damaged city wall.

To break through this blocked defense line, titanium steel must deploy the heavy artillery group directly in front of Sun Siqiong's defense line.

However, the titanium steel commanders repeatedly attacked and failed to break through the force group of Sun Siqiong's armored soldiers on the front line.

The center of Sun Siqiong base is comparable to the large electromagnetic cannon of the Purple Mountain Observatory, and it also revered the three-ton supersonic missiles to the distant mountains without hesitation.

The warheads filled with all-nitrogen-particle salt ammunition are assembled in the low-temperature liquid nitrogen environment in the turret, and then accelerated out of the electromagnetic track. Each warhead falls to the ground and can create a ignition cloud of 100 meters in diameter, and this complete federal base can fire more than 100 volleys at a time.

On average, every wave of artillery is sincere in thousands of tons of equivalents.

Under this kind of firepower, infantry has lost its meaning. Units weighing less than 300 kilograms can be blown over twenty meters from the pass covered by firepower.

...

In this kind of firepower confrontation, Lu Si and others' troops were not in the core area. In fact, Sun Siqiong would not allow Lu Si and others to participate in this pure exchange battle.

At present, Sun Siqiong took the initiative and launched a decisive battle at the most suitable position. The frontier base is already within 150 kilometers of the core area of ​​Titanium Steel, which is close to the face. In this large-scale battle, Titanium Steel is basically exchanged 3:1. This is inseparable from the full support of the Burning Wheel.

On both sides of the current main battlefield.

The support force group of Lanhuang deployed the Linlong base to the complex mountainous areas on both sides, and completed the road network under bombing and destruction. In these strategic areas, missile positions were deployed to intercept the air force of Titanium Steel, so that Titanium Steel's fighter jets now had to circle a large circle.

Lu Si's combat in such a large area provided deep cover for the Federation, allowing Sun Siqiong to boldly concentrate all his troops and fight forward.

The conversation between Sun Siqiong and Lu Si and others became closer and closer.

...

The most expensive army is not a "soldier king" who can lie down dozens of gangsters on the streets.

Those who are truly awarded the title of "Soldier King" are all professional and technical troops.

For example, if you know the problems of artillery fighting vehicles in various situations, you can quickly detect faults, and even guide the newly-employed professionals to solve the problem from a distance.

For example, I have very good experience in radar analysis, knowing when to start the computer and what methods to use to trick enemy aircraft.

Now the burner widely uses unmanned equipment, and in the whole year of confrontation, batch after batch of personnel have been rotated. Among them, the most senior non-commissioned officers can use micro-mechanical insects to check all equipment, and can guide other junior non-commissioned officers through information screens, and lead the team to summarize valuable experience in high-intensity confrontation.

Is Sun Siqiong also lacking such talents? Of course, it is lacking!

The combat experience of some advanced robot dolls may be no less than that of veterans among Lu Si, but their organizationality and fighting enthusiasm are not comparable. Of course, this cannot be bought. - Over the past year, the backbone of the Lanlun has also known the federal equipment and has developed many special uses. These systems are directly programmed into Sun Siqiong's intelligent weapons, indirectly improving the combat effectiveness of Sun Siqiong's regiment.

...

Sun Siqiong saw it and then had an idea. He wanted to control the personnel in the saline-alkali security army, especially those of Lu Si. However, there are many types of control.

The strongest control: it is like a robot doll, which directly locks the brain with the chip. Of course, this is absolutely impossible. Sun Siqiong knows that once he does it himself, even if he controls people, he will not be able to gain the spiritual talents of this group of people.

The second one is to control it through **: if you love money, you will give it talent, and if you love power, you will give it rights. - Sun Siqiong once promised wealth and promised to give Lu Si's federal citizenship, but the effect was not good.

The weakest control is actually to develop a crap in cooperation, so that the people under his command are willing to believe that they are obeying orders.

Sun Siqiong has done a great job in this regard. As an elite born in a famous family and a commander appointed by the Federation, he has now gained a high reputation within the Lanlun.

So Lu Si made this judgment: Sun Siqiong is a very promising general in the federal territory, and Ran Lu should support this general's path to joining the federal government, which will help Ran Lu's development.

After investigation, Zhou You: People with the above ideas are not just Lu Si's team. There are large numbers of people in the entire Haoyang section, the Lanlun Public Security Army organization hold this view, and those who hold this view will even take action in specific situations.

In other words, if Sun Siqiong raises his arms and calls in some cases, he can recruit many soldiers from the burning wheel.

And Lu Boya and Zhou You have different views on such signs.

Lu Boya's first reaction was that he had to stop him. He was a student who was taking the path of reformism and was reversing history.

However, Zhouyou thinks this is a necessary process in history. The so-called historical process is the process of various thoughts colliding and then determining the true route in practice.

...

The culture of Fangmingxing makes people here always look forward to a savior. In fact, this is the case in the entire Huichi Star Zone. Who said this is the place where the gods are watching?

The plot of the public "English Lord Savior" is easily exploited by some people. For example, the reason why the Titanium Steel God Society can attract so many people is to promote itself as a savior.

Although most people in the burning wheel have solved the problem of food and clothing and have certain upward channels, their ideological realm has not set a significant distance from the civilians in other regions.

If Zhouyou reveals the identity of the visitor of the Star Civilization, it will be the true savior of the planet. In fact, Zhouyou has not gained reputation. Instead, in some grassroots interpretation, reputation continues to decline.

[Two years ago, I brought down my "direct line" Lu Boya. In the eyes of the people below, I broke up with Lu Boya. I stepped down from the highest position and was interpreted as "they were betrayed by their relatives and divorced in the battle for central power, and did not laugh to the end."]

The world tour, which does not focus on reputation, has cast an iron rule within the burning wheel that "no matter where you are, you must take responsibility if you are wrong." This will be a curse that any ambitious person who wants to gain reputation in the burning wheel and cast a halo must face.

In the feudal system, the lower-ranking people have a moral concept of the son against the father. Even if the superior fails, the lower-ranking people still need to be loyal and assist, and cannot do anything 2.

But when public law punishes the high-ranking person who makes mistakes, the subsequent high-ranking person faces the situation: when they make mistakes, their subordinates are free from moral constraints when they are separated.

[The above is the reason why Yuan Datou was betrayed by his relatives after becoming emperor. After the republic, the elites no longer had the concept of "the monarch died for his priests", and those subordinates no longer had the concept of "traitors". Therefore, the elite non-commissioned officers brought by Yuan were sold to him and were so confused.]

Cast a tripod! It not only needs to be heated with fire, but also needs to be quenched with cold water.

The current situation of the burning wheel is a normal situation of the alternation of old and new. Now the external conditions are better, so it is best to let the thoughts charge and collide at this stage.

"Is it possible for the British master to save the world? Or abandon fantasy and unite to survive."

Zhou You's thinking will answer this: "This answer cannot be said by me, you have to prove it yourself! This is not whether I am wise or not, but whether this era understands it?"

...

Return to the present.

When Lu Boya brought his newly developed weapons to try to find an experiment opportunity on the front line, Lu Si naturally recommended Lu Boya towards Sun Siqiong.

Sun Siqi's commander, mecha, stood on the city wall, looking at the titanium steel corps that were repelled again in the distance. The supreme commander was planning to fight for another seven or eight days, and the titanium steel gods who were nailed there by him would fall into a strategic disadvantage.

As the general who supported Haoyang in the Luotian sector, Sun Siqiong won a lot of praise in the Haoyang sector.

For those in the Haoyang sector, Sun Siqiong is indeed a savior, protecting 32 major cities in the southern Heping District of the Haoyang sector, providing a critical respite for local federal forces to mobilize again.

At this time, in the cockpit of Sun Siqiong's mecha, a "click" on the left interface came, and a communication prompt in the logistics direction was heard.

Sun Siqiong glanced, opened the communication, and said in a sloppy tone: "Col. Lu Si, I received your report, which made me very nervous. Is this good news? Or bad news?"

Lu Si: "God General, this time I want to ask you if the actual situation of the battle at Si Meng Pass can be conveyed."

Sun Siqiong: "Of course."

He opened the screen in front of him, and at this time the symbols of the Federation blue armored corps appeared densely on the map.

At the same time, vehicles on the front line received his orders, and square-stacked rocket launch modules spit fire from the tank. The rocket arrived over the sky, releasing small unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, further dispelling the fog of war - making the live picture of the front line clearer (with the enemy's laser air defense counterattack, the live picture of the command room will become darker again).

The artificial intelligence in Sun Siqiong’s mecha programmatically introduced the situation of various confrontation areas on the front line.

Ten minutes later.

Lu Si suggested: "General, the war seems to be in a stalemate now."

Sun Siqiong responded with a smile: "It seems that it is not, but it has always been. Colonel Lu, do you have any ideas?"

Lu Si said in a suggestive tone: "My mentor has brought a newly designed weapon facility. I hope to find opportunities to experiment on the front line this time. If successful, it may bring a change to the state of the front line."

Sun Siqiong said openly: "So, what are you waiting for? Let me introduce that senior..."

Lu Boya appeared on the communication interface and interrupted Sun Siqiong's second half of the sentence.

When Sun Siqiong saw Lu Boya on the interface, she found that she was not the old doctor with gray hair that she remembered. She paused and said to Lu Boya gentlemanly: "Dr. Lu, your beauty makes me need to dim it here."

Lu Boya: "Thank you for your praise. The battle situation is urgent. I will go in and explain now."

...

After twenty minutes of simple scientific research explanation.

Sun Siqiong: "In other words, you need to drive this ground-effect spacecraft to the front line and then unfold it, and then there will be waves of destruction sweeping across the surroundings."

Lu Boya: "Yes, the Burning Storm can maintain a tactical strike ahead."

Sun Siqiong: "Ms. Lu, I think you may not know that we have nuclear weapons."

Lu Boya: "Eighty percent of the energy of nuclear weapons is lost to form mushroom clouds in the sky, and the secondary damage caused by residual radioactivity is actually not conducive to the attack after fire strikes. (Nuclear bombs have powerful magnetic pulses, interfere with each other, and cannot cover multiple pieces together.)

The incineration storm relies on special fusion reactors to supply energy, and the magnetic ring diffusion only acts as near-scale formations (within a height of 100 meters) and is buried at a depth of more than 100 meters underground.

Moreover, the energy of the magnetic ring sweep is provided by controlled nuclear fusion. When the nuclear fusion reactor is burned, there is no radioactive residue. Within five minutes, we can launch an attack.

At the same time, you don’t have to worry about the obstacles that nuclear bomb craters will hinder the march of mechanical forces. The explosion of spherical lightning will not cause damage.”

Sun Siqiong: "So, what is the equivalent of a fire storm."
