What Lilia means is that at least during the one or two months of the presidential transition, the decision-makers are (relatively speaking) in a state of incompetence. However, Marshal Paris, who is in his nineties, still shows a performance that surpasses almost all
With the young man's sense of responsibility and energy, the top military command department he leads is still functioning effectively, which makes Zhixia feel a little relieved.
However, this so-called "opinion from the New World Front" is a little difficult to understand.
Even Zhixia took half a minute to sort out the relationship and possibilities. He couldn't help but frown and said: "Is there a conflict with the empire over there in the New World?"
"I haven't heard of it yet, but it is said that there are some bad signs. The frontline believes that we should take precautions. Well, whether you or I believe it or not, Marshal Paris believes it anyway."
Zhixia couldn't help but press her temples again, and said angrily: "This kind of nagging Riddler smell sounds like Old Ghost Yang's style."
"...After all, it's Chief Yang or Teacher Yang." Lilia said: "Zhixia, you can't hold a grudge until now just because he confiscated the beer you bought."
"I don't hold a grudge against him." Zhixia put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "But I am the mayor of Maple City and the commissioner of Rumina's administrative office. I am in charge of 300 million people, so why should I call him chief?"
Lilia said in a coaxing tone: "Okay, okay, whatever you say is what you say. Teacher Yang will definitely not mind if he knows it. But, no matter how much you hate him, you have to admit his ability, right? Yu Lian
He is the teacher I admire the most."
"That's why I called him Old Ghost Yang because I recognized his ability." Zhixia snorted coldly, and then pressed his temples: "Okay, even if he is not unfounded, there will really be changes in the empire. But,
Lilia, the Red Maple Factory wants to supply more than just military districts and fleets. New Shuntian and New Tennessee in the Far Coast Sector also have military-industrial enterprises."
"Well, they are still old companies. One was founded in the era of Marshal Li, and the other was simply during the empire's rule, but to be honest, the quality control is not as good as yours." Lilia sighed: "Lieutenant General Sylvester
As I said, what they produce can be handed over to the rear guard. But the Marines on the frontline fortress must use the best."
“Our co-author, Red Maple Factory, is really a cow!”
"It's not a cow, it's the logistics headquarters that maintains the entire far shore position." Lilia said with a smile.
"You are really a good girl with high emotional intelligence." Zhixia sighed: "Let me decide after discussing with everyone. Give me twenty-four hours."
Lilia nodded: "I know this request is unreasonable, but if anyone can make the impossible possible, it can only be you."
After closing the communication, Ye Zhixia immediately looked expectantly at the two elderly people who had been watching the whole process.
"Are we going to fight again?" Mr. Emmanuel sighed: "However, I have observed the fortress you built, and space has been reserved for installing new forts and barracks. It seems that preparations for this have been made from the beginning.
Already."
Director Ruhr said: "This kind of production requirements is really stressful."
Of course, having said that, it is always a good thing for the company when orders come, especially high-quality military orders. So, after reviewing the current production plan, the Ruhr factory director told the mayor
The lady said: "No problem."
"No problem?" Zhixia was still a little skeptical: "If it's just metallurgical products, I wouldn't worry. But the Far Coast Military Region also requires arms..."
"Miss Mayor, have you forgotten what I was doing before I retired?" Director Ruhr laughed and tapped his nose with his thumb: "I was born in the arsenal, and I also worked in the equipment management department of the Far Coast Military Region.
Director! Even if Commander Sylvester sees us, he has to call me "Old Director."
Ye Zhixia then remembered that the old factory director of Ruhr had a very brilliant resume before he was rehired as factory director, and Yu Lian had personally invited him here.
At this time, the old factory director said again: "I have just seen the purchase order. What the Far Coast Military Region needs most now is small guns to fill the close fire defense of fortresses and battleships. This can be done with the Type 107 rail gun designed by General Yu
It has been replaced. The artillery shells it uses are actually the same specifications as the Defender system we have installed. As long as the energy transmission device is slightly modified, it can be connected to our military's common warship and fortress functional systems. This adjustment has been
How about calling the rail gun 107A?"
"...I think General Yu, Allen and General Yu, won't have any objections."
"With the same working hours, our arsenal can produce at least four times the original output, which can meet the order demand." Director Ruhr said with confidence.
Zhixia felt that she was beginning to feel relieved. She knew that the greatest advantage of old-school engineers like Director Ruhr, apart from being invited, was that they were practical and realistic. Because of this, it is difficult for them to become famous, and because of this, they are the most reliable
people.
"Lieutenant General Sylvester requested the same railgun assembly as the Defender system. We will directly change it to 107A. Will he accept it?"
"He will." Director Ruhr smiled and said, "That guy is not a famous general. His only advantage is his practicality."
Zhixia thought about it carefully and felt that this made some sense. You should also know that after Vice Admiral Sylvester became the commander of the Far Coast Military Region and the admiral of the Ninth Fleet, the combat effectiveness of the Ninth Fleet did not improve much, but
However, a large number of fortresses have been added in Earl's Star Gap and Lucanar Corridor. It is a "strong fortification and weak war" situation. Such commanders are all simple and strong pragmatists.
.
The old factory director paused for a moment, but then said: "...I can complete the orders required for next year on time and with high quality. However, everyone in the factory may have to work three shifts."
"I will do the logistics work well. Of course, there will also be overtime pay. Our business has been good for three years, and the most important thing in the factory is financial surplus." Zhixia said with a smile.
She was even mentally prepared to use government financial subsidies if there was a cash crunch in the factory. Anyway, the functions of the Maple City government and the Red Maple Factory Committee almost overlap, and the so-called finance is left to the left.
Right hand problem.
As for whether the civil servants sent by the central government will object...again, whoever objects will go to the countryside where the moa are the most numerous.
However, as the leader of the entire planet, the young mayor couldn't help but think about more.
"Mr. Ruhr, is there a possibility... uh, that we can promote this newly designed 107A as a flagship product of the arsenal in the future?"
At that time, the Red Maple Factory can be upgraded into a real military-industrial complex. After all, the added value of weapons is much higher than that of metallurgical products.
"Sell to Feimo Nebula?" Director Ruhr smiled and said, "Of course you can."
Mr. Emmanuel also smiled and said: "If there is a way to deliver it to the rebels in the empire, of course it would be even better."
Of course, Ye Zhixia could tell that the two old men were making fun of her, so she also shrugged and smiled: "Okay, I admit now that I was really not a good student when I was in the military academy. My professional courses were all just below the passing line.
, the average score is all supported by social activity classes."
Factory Director Ruhr said: "General Yu's 107 is indeed an extremely excellent design. It is simple in structure, easy to assemble and disassemble, and is not low in power. It is especially suitable for extreme battlefield conditions. The biggest advantage is of course that it is of high quality and low price. It is built in a cave.
A small workshop here can mass-produce it. This is a perfect weapon for asymmetric warfare, but on the frontal battlefield, it is beyond its capabilities in terms of rate of fire, power, and durability. Time is tight now, and the tasks are heavy.
We can only replace it with the relatively simple 107. Once the military's urgent needs are met, I still recommend continuing to produce standard rail gun groups. Don't worry, although our arsenal has only been rebuilt for half a year, there are no major problems. Except for small rail guns
In addition to ion cannons and ion cannons, the production lines of tanks and power armor have been resumed.”
Zhixia nodded, but still felt a little pity. She couldn't help but look at Factory Director Ruhr expectantly, and then at Mr. Emmanuel.
"Miss Mayor, I have been in charge of military industry and equipment, but I really don't know how to design!" Ruhr Factory Director said helplessly.
"Miss Mayor, my major is urban construction and traffic design, not military industry!" Minlan senior engineer sighed.
Factory Director Ruhr rolled his eyes, but lowered his voice and said: "However, when it comes to design, I heard that the light wing structure used by the White Phantom fighter is made of our Taishi alloy? Hehehe, do you want it?
Instead of planning, why not build an aircraft factory or shipyard directly on the track? The cost of building a ship locally is always lower than transporting metal ingots all the way, right?"
Ye Zhixia was amazed and lamented that the other man, who was over seventy years old, had greater ambitions than himself. Sure enough, if you stay in a poisonous place like Hongfeng Factory for a long time, no matter how mature and prudent you are, you will start to become crazy.
.
On the same day, in the new Yumen, two million light years away from Lumina.
A white aircraft nearly one hundred meters long, with an overall shuttle shape, covered with light waves much longer than its own length, passed over the orbital space port of Xinyumen. At that moment, those who were watching in the orbital airport
Everyone seemed to have seen a swift with wings of light.
"How long?" Dr. Xie Yiwei asked the technicians next to him loudly.
"3, 3 minutes and 21 seconds!" the technician in charge of statistics said in an unbelievable tone.
After a brief pause, the scene suddenly erupted into huge cheers.
The most senior figure present, Lieutenant General Carter, the Logistics Director of the Community Expeditionary Force, carefully held the small table in front of him and wanted to stand up, but for a moment he felt his legs were a little weak. He wanted to calm down and reach for it.
The coffee cup next to me was empty.
Uncle Johnson, who was still standing next to him, picked up the coffee pot, filled it up for the Lieutenant General, and then handed it over.
Lieutenant General Carter drank a whole cup of black coffee and let out a heavy sigh before asking: "Director Johnson, the fastest assault ship currently equipped by our army is, yes, the Golden Eagle 6.
Assault ship, how long will it take?”
Uh, you are a senior general. Is this the right question for you to ask me?
Although Uncle Johnson thought so, he still grinned: "The average speed is more than 5 minutes, and it is in a straight line. And this kid drew a big circle around the entire planet's orbit and even conducted actual shooting.
Oh."
"In other words, even a battleship-level light spear main gun can only fire two to three rounds before such an assault ship approaches..." Although Lieutenant General Carter seems to be a refined and good man
, but he is also a senior general after all, and his ideas in this regard are still very clear.
"What about the live ammunition shooting just now?"
To be continued...
