Chapter 606 The engineering team wants to build an airport here
Not long after the Atlas combat fleet appeared, the leader of the forces Huck, who had "left angrily" after the previous negotiations with Cassius and others broke down, also Received reports from subordinates.
In the armored command vehicle he was riding in, he contacted the commander of the garrison fleet and yelled at him, accusing him of being a deserter before the fight started.
The latter also broke the rules at this moment, and started scolding Huck directly, angrily scolding him for not treating the garrison fleet as a human being, and wanting them to carry out this suicidal action of throwing eggs at stones - anyway, this time The garrison fleet had already set a safe distance. No matter how much he cursed, Huck couldn't do anything to him.
While these two once 'like-minded' comrades are now at odds with each other due to the arrival of the Atlas fleet, Cassius has also completed the exchange of information and intelligence with Ramos. .
"So, Captain Cassius, you want us to carry out a deterrent orbital strike to dispel the other party's intention to continue to refuse to negotiate, right?"
"That's right, Lieutenant Colonel Ramos~"
< br>Cassius opened his mouth to confirm and emphasized again:
"Definitely Please note that it only requires a deterrent orbital strike, even if it is fired into an empty space, the other party will definitely understand what we mean."
"Don't worry, Captain Cassius. , and we don’t want to use force with each other in business activities.”
Ramos on the other end of the communication smiled, and then continued:
"Don't worry about the professional capabilities of our combat fleet. The subject of orbital strike is among all combat projects, and it is also the group with the most stringent assessment for us. I don’t know what the boss’s considerations are. He has very high requirements for the gunnery officers and gunners of each warship, and the shooting accuracy is even more... It has reached an extremely harsh level~"
"Hahahaha, with your words, I will feel relieved!"
Although Cassius is relatively calm on the surface! , this meeting was a lot of chatting and laughing with Ramos, but in fact this was also the first time he experienced a business negotiation with half a combat fleet "supporting the field" above his head.
God knows what Boss has in mind. Not only does he assign high-level escorts to each 'action group' in the financial business center, he also assigns high-level escorts to some who have shown low 'willingness to cooperate' in advance intelligence. In the region, a fleet was directly dispatched to 'find out the truth'.
Cassius never thought that he could use the fleet above his head as one of his bargaining chips in a business negotiation.
This feeling is really.
It feels so good.
This is as if in a debate, our debater's next 'argument' is to take out a pistol from his arms.
"So, Leader Cassius, what do you want? Which area does Orbital Strike attack? ”
The voice of Lieutenant Colonel Ramos brought Cassius back from his distraction. When he heard it, he immediately opened the virtual map - there were already some "pre-selected areas for project construction" marked by the Investment Department and the Engineering Department.
"Well, let's take a look. The engineering department said before that they wanted to build an airport, and they just need to open up a large flat open space."
Cassius carefully checked the empty space on the map. The people scanned the area while still muttering:
"Words" It is said that the large open space opened up after the orbital strike can be used as an airport construction area, right?"
"This is no problem. As long as the preliminary exploration confirms that the area is suitable, the orbital strike can indeed help level the area. ”
Ramos nodded, not finding anything troublesome about Cassius's request.
After all, one of the current training subjects of the Atlas Combat Fleet is to conduct orbital strikes on the ground in dangerous areas to provide a 'clean' landing site for landing troops, or to open up a landing site for ground engineering troops Can be carried out quickly in field environments Open space for infrastructure
"That's no problem, Lieutenant Colonel Ramos, I have transmitted the relevant coordinates, I will trouble you next!" Cassius said sincerely, and there was nothing else on him. The arrogance of those 'business elites' in the enterprise.
"The coordinates have been received. This place is not far from your current location? Are you sure you are attacking this coordinate?"
Ramos frowned after seeing the coordinates. Brow asked, because the coordinates sent by Ramos were less than 50 kilometers away from Atlas's temporary camp on the ground.
Cassius: "That's right, we're going to fight here! The leader of the force we're negotiating with has just left, so you'll definitely be able to see him clearly with a bombardment!"
" Okay, now that it has been confirmed, I will organize an orbital strike. I wish Team Leader Cassius success in the subsequent negotiations in advance. ”
“Hahaha, thank you! I believe that with this bombardment, all problems will be solved!”
——
It won’t take long, take responsibility! The two light cruisers performing orbital strike missions entered the strike orbit and remained at operating altitude.
The subject of earth orbital strike is already a very mature subject within the Atlas combat fleet. Warships of all levels, starting from light cruisers, need to complete a series of assessments related to orbital strike operations before they can be officially put into use. .
In other words, the Atlas Combat Fleet also does not maintain 'idle ships'. Each battleship no longer performs a single fleet warfare mission, but develops in the direction of multi-functional combat.
The two light cruisers just stayed quietly in the low orbit of the planet. From the perspective of the surrounding artificial satellites, the extremely large body looks like a moving fortress, and the metal shell shines with a mysterious and cold light under the bright light of stars.
On the bridge of one of the light cruisers, the captain sat calmly on the captain's seat, watching the gunnery officer arrange the entire process of the orbital strike.
As a ship in the first echelon of orbital strike subjects in the fleet, the captain of this light cruiser had no special thoughts about today’s strike mission, just like the usual training
"Everyone Attention, we are preparing for an orbital strike. The attack coordinates have been bound and the final identification of the attack area is in progress." The gunnery officer's voice was steady and powerful, and also carried a kind of inner confidence.
"The weapon system has completed its self-test and is ready to attack at any time." An operator reported with concentration.
The gunnery officer nodded slightly, his eyes still fixed on the screen of the workbench in front of him, which was a synthesized high-precision ground image captured by synthetic aperture radar and optical lens.
The coordinates Cassius sent were to a long-abandoned automated farm. The engineering team had been planning to bulldoze this area and build a temporary airport.
Although it was already abandoned, this farm is currently infested with some kind of insect pest that is aggressive to humans, so the area has long become a 'forbidden zone' for the locals, and no one would go there on weekdays.
Despite this, several electronic attack ships in the fleet directly hacked into the network in this area through communication satellites in orbit, and issued attack warnings to everyone to keep them farther away. Good
“The two ships have been completed simultaneously, and the Tempest has established a temporary Remote control channel! "
"The fire control unit locks the entered attack coordinates!"
"All the main guns of the ship are ready to fire, and the No. 6 alloy is loaded, and the quality is increased to 2200. grams, the initial velocity of the heavy metal particle flow is reduced to 542 kilometers per second! ”
"The high-energy laser at the front end of the battleship adjusts the wavelength to 8MM and begins atmospheric interference!"
The gunnery officer skillfully reported the contents of the 'Checklist' one by one. After a large number of ground attack tests, Atlas The combat fleet has also developed a set of 'standard firing tables', and many data settings are more accurate than before.
When all the checklist procedures were completed, the gunnery officer looked back at the captain of the light cruiser. When the latter nodded slightly, he immediately snapped his fingers.
“Fire!”
——
Including the force leader Huck in the armored command vehicle, everyone near the attack area felt that several dazzling 'beams' suddenly flashed in the sky.
Before they realized what was happening, they saw a sudden 'light' in the distance, and the day seemed to turn into night in an instant.
I don’t know how long it took before the ground beneath my feet felt a strong earthquake, and deafening roars followed one after another. The sound was like thousands of angry giant beasts roaring in the sky, and the sound was rolling in. Lang made everyone cover their ears.
Where the 'explosion' occurred in the distance, an extremely hot heat wave was centered on the landing point of the heavy metal particle jet, sweeping away in all directions like a surging tide. Wherever it went, everything was destroyed. was instantly ignited.
The dry weeds on the farm turned to ashes in an instant, and the raised dust was baked into a glass-like substance by the high temperature before it could disperse, crackling and shooting towards the surroundings under ultra-high pressure.
The trees near the automated farm were even more vulnerable. The thick trunks first made a painful "crunching" sound under the impact of the heat wave, and then broke and burned like fragile matchsticks. The raging fire instantly destroyed the entire forest near the farm. Swallowed, the fire shot into the sky, and the thick smoke billowed, turning the originally clear sky into darkness.
A large number of abandoned agricultural machinery in the automated farm were instantly thrown away by this powerful force, rolling in the air like fragile toys, and then directly vaporized by the high temperature and disappeared without a trace.
Along with the strong light, heat wave and earthquake-like impact, there is also a powerful shock wave raging in the air.
This shock wave is like an invisible giant hand, mercilessly destroying everything along the way. The buildings and semi-buried grain storage warehouses on the farm that are not low in strength are like paper in front of it. , collapsed and disintegrated in an instant
“This is ‘industrial beauty’, indeed, this is the real aesthetics”
Cassius, who had put on his sunglasses in advance, stood on the roof of the cabin car with other business representatives to watch this ‘visual feast’.
Like other employees of Atlas Group, they were impressed by this 'industrial beauty' and the purest power after joining the company for a period of time.
As the fire in the distance gradually disappeared, a communications specialist came to the side of the cabin car and waved to Cassius.
"Team leader! That Huck has contacted us and expressed that he wants to sit down and have a serious talk with us again!"
