Chapter 313 New Interstellar Army
Chapter 313 New Interstellar Army
In the sixth year of the Wutong era, Emperor Shen Moshen of the Great Qian Empire officially signed an imperial edict: In view of the rapid development of the times and in order to better adapt to the future form of warfare, the Great Qian Zhenguo Army will officially carry out interstellar military reform.
In the new interstellar military reform, the former Daqian Zhenguo Army Air Force and Navy Department were merged to form the Interstellar Aviation Force.
The interstellar air force and the interstellar army will together form the interstellar combat force of the Great Qian Empire.
The Imperial Capital – the Great Qian Interstellar Defense Command.
"Traditional firearms will be phased out of the Imperial regular army's armament."
"Among the many interstellar individual weapons, we ultimately chose to recommend the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle, the latest development by the Imperial Super Armaments Corporation."
"Superpower-6 Electromagnetic Rifle: 8mm caliber, with the support of advanced electromagnetic acceleration rail technology, the muzzle velocity of the bullet will reach twice the speed of sound!"
"Its unique electromagnetic launch system enables the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle to fire at a rate of 3000 rounds per minute, making its firepower fully unleashed."
"More importantly, the ammunition for the Super-6 electromagnetic rifle uses the latest energy ammunition."
"As you can see, this thing that looks like a large syringe is the standard ultra-concentrated energy cartridge used in the Super-6 electromagnetic rifle."
Zhao Yixin, the chief weapons officer of the Great Qian Empire, who was introducing the weapon details to everyone, brought up the ultra-concentrated energy cartridges equipped with the Super Energy-6 electromagnetic rifle on the light screen.
"Each of these ultra-concentrated energy cartridges is enough to power the Super-6 electromagnetic rifle to fire continuously for ten minutes at full power!"
"In other words, such a super-concentrated energy cartridge is equivalent to a magazine with a capacity of up to 100 rounds."
"This is also the main reason why I strongly recommend the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle as the standard individual weapon of the Imperial Army."
Zhao Yixin paused for a moment, then continued, "We know that what we need most in the face of the Badaf Zerg invasion is a powerful and sustained barrage of firepower."
"The most numerous and fundamental fighting force of the Badaf insectoids is the armored jaw beetle, which fights in groups."
"The role of the Ironjaw Bug in the Badaf Zerg is that of their ground infantry unit."
"Therefore, we can only counter the terrifying swarm attacks of the Ironjaw Beetles by maximizing our firepower."
"The emergence of the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle is undoubtedly timely!"
"I believe that the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle will definitely become an indispensable weapon for us in our fight against the Badaf Zerg."
It's clear that Zhao Yixin is quite satisfied with the Super Armed Company's Super-6 electromagnetic rifle.
"A rate of fire of up to 3000 rounds per minute..."
Zhou Guangming, commander-in-chief of the Daqian Joint Command, exclaimed, "Isn't this equivalent to each of our soldiers fighting with a heavy machine gun?"
"This was something we wouldn't have dared to imagine before, but now it has become a reality."
"With such powerful firepower, I refuse to believe we can't deal with these ugly Badaf bugs!"
Zhou Guangming, who stepped down as the commander of the Daqian Zhenguo Army Navy, is now the commander-in-chief of the Daqian Joint Command.
In the words of Han Yunsheng, former Air Force Commander and current Commander of the Interstellar Aviation Force, Zhou Guangming can be considered to have "turned misfortune into blessing."
Although the traditional Navy Department was merged and abolished, Zhou Guangming, the former Navy Commander, was left without a commander.
However, Zhou Guangming was immediately appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Daqian United Command, and was given full authority to command the Daqian army.
In terms of rank, they were half a rank higher than Han Yunsheng and the others...
"The advent of the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle can be considered a miracle in human individual weaponry, and it is also a milestone in the entry of individual light weapons into a new stage."
Zhao Yixin, the chief weapons officer of Daqian, praised the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle, saying, "This should be the first truly perfect individual weapon in human history."
"In summary—aside from its high price, the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle is practically flawless..."
"Expensive?" Zhou Guangming smiled. "Expensive has never been considered a drawback here."
"To paraphrase His Majesty's words, 'If something can be solved with money, then it's not a problem.'"
"Our Great Qian army has one thing in common: money!"
"How is it?" Zhou Guangming asked, glancing at Lu Jingcheng, commander of the interstellar army, and Han Yunsheng, commander of the interstellar air force, who were standing to the side.
"Old Lu, Old Han!"
What are your opinions?
"Are you satisfied with the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle?"
"If you're satisfied, let's finalize this today."
"Perfect!" Interstellar Army Commander Lu Jingcheng shook his head occasionally as he reviewed the detailed specifications of the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle. "Too perfect..."
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes—I would never have imagined that we could create such a monstrous thing as the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle......................."
"If soldiers carry multiple canisters of ultra-concentrated energy ammunition, wouldn't each soldier be equivalent to an unlimited firepower point?"
"Isn't this a classic case of one man holding off ten thousand?"
"If this thing were used in ordinary warfare, it would definitely be an impregnable fortress."
Interstellar Aviation Commander Han Yunsheng immediately tempered Lu Jingcheng's tone, saying, "But against a monster like the Badaf Zerg, expecting to single-handedly hold off ten thousand is probably impossible..."
"You know—the Badaf Zerg are monstrous creatures who have maxed out their evolution points."
"What? You, the commander of the interstellar aviation force, have lost confidence before the battle has even begun?" Lu Jingcheng retorted.
"of course not!"
Han Yunsheng smiled and said, "What I mean is—from now on, the core force to deal with the Badaf Zerg will still have to be our interstellar aviation force."
"No matter how good individual weapons are, they can only be used for passive defense against the swarms of the Badaf Zerg."
"This crucial counterattack operation will still rely on powerful weapons like interstellar warships."
"You and Lao Zhou can decide on the individual weapon. I'm fine with anything, I have no objections."
"Hey!" Zhou Guangming looked at the smug Han Yunsheng and threatened, "Old Han! Do you believe that I, the commander-in-chief of the joint command, will quit and go to the palace right now to ask His Majesty for permission?"
“Let’s switch places. You can be the joint commander-in-chief, and I’ll be the commander of the interstellar aviation force.”
"In that case, you, Lao Han, will be in charge of the meetings from now on!"
"No! No! No..."
Upon hearing this, Han Yunsheng hurriedly waved his hands repeatedly: "I definitely can't be the joint commander-in-chief, I don't have that kind of charisma..."
"This commander-in-chief position has to be filled by you, Lao Zhou. No one else can match your temperament and other qualities!"
"We were discussing the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle, right?"
Han Yunsheng immediately changed the subject: "This rifle is fantastic!"
"It is absolutely the pinnacle of individual weapons."
"I'm quite satisfied with the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle, Lao Lu! What about you?"
“Your interstellar army is the largest user group, so you are definitely the most qualified to speak on this matter.”
“I’m definitely fine with this!” Lu Jingcheng smiled. “I don’t think there’s anything to discuss. This is it—the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle.”
"Alright, then we'll use the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle as our standard individual weapon."
"We can notify Super Armed Company now. Place the order immediately and get it ready to work."
"Yes! I will personally contact Super Armed Company after the meeting." Zhao Yixin, Chief Weapon Officer of Daqian, nodded.
"By the way, you just said that the only downside of this Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle is its high price. How expensive is it?"
Zhou Guangming picked up his teacup, took a sip of water, and casually asked.
"It's not that expensive. This Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle costs about the same as 50 of the most advanced heavy tanks from six years ago."
Puff~~~
Zhou Guangming immediately spat out the water he had just drunk.
Holy crap................
Good things are never cheap, and cheap things are never good!
This price is indeed...not low!
"What about the matching consumable... the ultra-concentrated energy cartridge?"
After calming himself down, Zhou Guangming quickly asked, "That thing is equivalent to how many heavy tanks?"
"Probably between 10 and 12 vehicles..."
"Commander-in-Chief, are you alright?"
"Should we still order the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle?" Zhao Yixin asked again, looking at Zhou Guangming who was counting on his fingers.
"Order! Definitely order! Must order!"
Zhou Guangming exclaimed, "I never expected this thing to be so ridiculously expensive."
"However, this is no big deal for the Empire. Get the Super Armaments Company into production as soon as possible; we have plenty of money..."
That's why Shen Moshen is holding on with his cheat codes.
Otherwise, who could afford such an expensive thing? This is just ridiculous!
"Yes!"
Zhao Yixin then added, "Super Armed Company has begun to study how to reduce costs as much as possible without affecting the performance of the Super-6 electromagnetic rifle."
"After all, the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle has only just been launched and is a first-generation product."
"As technology matures and breakthroughs occur, the cost of the Super-6 electromagnetic rifle will definitely gradually decrease..."
-------------------------------------
After deciding on the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle as the standard individual weapon for the Daqian army, Zhao Yixin continued to bring up the next selected equipment on the light screen.
"Superpower 05 Shell-type Lightweight Individual Combat Armor".
"It is also the latest individual combat armor developed by Super Armor Corporation."
"It can be perfectly paired with the Superpower-6 electromagnetic rifle."
Zhao Yixin also highly praised the Super Energy 05 shell-type lightweight individual combat armor: "The Super Energy 05 armor integrates the latest developed life support system."
"This ensures that our soldiers can carry out combat missions in space and in various harsh environments."
"The outer shell of the Superpower 05 armor can effectively resist ballistic impacts and blunt force strikes, and has a very strong anti-radiation capability."
"Basically, small arms have little chance of inflicting effective damage on the Superpower 05 Armor."
"Super Armor Company once conducted hundreds of shooting tests on the Type 05 armor with traditional assault rifles."
"Experiments have shown that a traditional assault rifle from six years ago would need to fire at least 100 shots at the same point and position on the Type 05 armor before it could penetrate its defenses."
"However, no one can give an accurate conclusion at this time as to whether the Superpower 05 shell-type lightweight individual combat armor can effectively resist the limb attacks of the Ironjaw Beetle."
"After all, we haven't had any contact with the Badaf Zerg yet, so we can't conduct any further related experiments."
"The main highlights of the Superpower 05 shell-type lightweight individual combat armor are its decent defensive capabilities, lightweight design, and life support system."
"My suggestion is to first designate the Super Energy 05 shell-type lightweight individual combat armor as a standard individual combat armor as a transitional product."
"Because the cost of the Superpower 05 shell-type lightweight individual combat armor is not too high."
"Upgrading to better individual armor at that time won't be a big problem."
"A transitional product?" Zhou Guangming immediately grasped the key point: "What do you mean?"
"I just looked at the relevant information about the Superpower 05 shell-type lightweight individual combat armor."
"The performance of the Type 05 armor is quite good and it meets the military's operational requirements very well."
"The transitional product you're referring to is..."
"That's right—although we are satisfied with the performance of the Superpower 05 shell-type lightweight individual combat armor."
"However, Super Armor Corporation is not entirely satisfied with the Super Power 05 shell-type lightweight individual combat armor."
According to Super Armor Company, the Type 05 armor is only a transitional product.
"Because the Superpower 05 shell-type lightweight individual combat armor did not truly achieve the design performance they expected."
"Super Armor Corporation has initiated research into developing more advanced individual combat armor."
"They hope to develop a new generation of combat armor that can significantly enhance soldiers' various abilities and survivability."
"In other words, our soldiers will be able to become true super soldiers with the help of this combat armor."
"It can even eliminate the armored jaw beetle without the aid of weapons."
"However, there are still many core technologies that need to be overcome in order to develop this new generation of combat armor."
"Super Armor Corporation cannot guarantee when the next generation of combat armor will be released."
"Therefore, the Superpower Type 05 shell-type lightweight individual combat armor became the best transitional product before the next generation of combat armor entered the market..."
