Chapter 146, I want this big guy!
"I don't want to hear so many arguments. I just want to know when the big thing you mentioned will be completed!" Shulou growled, already a little impatient.
The elder took the hand that was tearing the meat: "If you want to see those big guys, come with me and I will show you."
Tear Meat followed the elder and came to a 'factory'.
This place is open-air, and many wrench boys work here. They kick the butts of the Grot assistants, laugh loudly, and sometimes have fights with each other, and some greenskins are even beaten to death on the spot.
But this does not hinder their work efficiency or the bustling scene.
And here, I saw a lot of good things.
There is a green pickup truck that is being assembled. It looks like a pile of broken building blocks that have been assembled at random. It barely has the shape of a car. Multi-barreled machine guns are crazily stuffed on the truck. It can transport boys to the front line, and it can also be used as an armed vehicle to shoot fiercely.
He also saw something that looked like a cannon assembled from tin buckets. Three or five tin buckets were simply wrapped together with wires, and a few wheels were stuffed underneath to complete the project.
In addition to these, he also saw several iron cans about three meters high with "hands and feet" on them, with a ridiculous and crude orc head painted in white paint.
He turned his head and the elder was looking at him.
"This is a gift prepared for the strongest boss in the clan! When it's ready, put it on and use it to crack the chain saw, bang bang bang, and rattling the revolver! It will definitely kill those Kill them all!”
Shishou couldn't help but caress the big guy, and kicked him several meters away because he didn't like a working fart getting in the way.
After a while, he grinned happily: "Hahahaha! I want this big guy! When can I wear it?"
"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, it's coming soon!"
……
A month has passed.
Gu Hang did not stay in Garbage Town all the time. He took a plane back to Fuxing City several times.
After all, Fuxing City and Wei Xing City’s twin districts are the foundation.
He inspected the reconstruction of Fuxing City. The outer city, which had been a mess, was now somewhat presentable. Although it is still a large construction site, according to Oceana's plan, the entire city already has some appearance. There are currently almost 600,000 people active in the outer city, and nearly 200,000 of them are carrying out the city's reconstruction work.
With the efforts of nearly 200,000 construction workers, the city is being rebuilt rapidly.
Now, the total population of Fuxing City is about 800,000. Of the nearly 900,000 people who originally lived in the outer city of Fuxing City, 200,000 moved to Weixing City, and another 100,000 moved to the inner city.
The population structure and industrial structure of the entire city will become more reasonable in the future.
What Gu Hang paid more attention to was the situation in Wei Xing City.
The main industrial area under his command is here.
The current population of Weixing City has exceeded 300,000 after receiving a large number of people who migrated from Fuxing City and from major settlements within two hundred kilometers to the east.
Especially the military industry is particularly important.
Thanks to the day and night work of the black box in the research institute and the efforts of Wu Jiarong, various military industrial production capacities are rapidly increasing.
In the past month, the military industry in Huidong District produced 55 infantry fighting vehicles, 40,000 sets of individual equipment with G9 rifles as the core, 100 artillery pieces of various types, and 40,000 rounds of various types. Artillery shells, 200 military trucks...
The equipment of the Quencheng Brigade has not been finished yet, but at least two heavy-duty synthetic battalions have been prepared, and they will be sent to the front line.
Following the 2nd and 3rd Battalions of the 1st Xifeng Brigade to the front line were the logistics supplies carried in the two hundred trucks, as well as numerous ammunition, weapons and equipment.
Two hundred vehicles can't even haul all these things in one trip. They have to pull them several times.
Once this batch of equipment and logistical supplies are in place, the four garrison divisions from 4 to 7 can be completely reorganized.
Of course, Gu Hang still had to spend more than 400 points of gifts on them for training.
After the training is completed and the equipment is in place, except for the insufficient number of artillery, their combat effectiveness is not much different from that of the 2nd Infantry Division.
In addition to military construction, the number of gift points in Gu Hang's hands has soared again this month.
It has nothing to do with the war.
Although there is a big war going on outside Trash Town, and the scale of this war is the largest since Gu Hang came to Raging Star. But until now, there has never been a battle settlement interface.
Obviously, the battles that ended before, regardless of whether they were counterattack fronts or defensive battles, were not counted as the end of multiple separate battles.
If you want to see the battle settlement interface, you probably have to finish the entire battle.
But without the gift point nourishment from battle, it is not a big problem. His current monthly gift point income has increased from less than 400 last month to 588 points.
The substantial increase in monthly income this time is not caused by the population explosion, but by a serious increase in productivity. The biggest increase comes from Weixing City, where nearly 200,000 people have moved into the city. Through short-term centralized training and training while working, most of the population has solved their unemployment problem. The most important thing is heavy industry, The military industry has been supplemented by the population.
The substantial increase in productivity has brought about an increase in income by more than 150 points of grace.
As for Fuxing City, the construction speed of the outer city is very fast. The recovery of various industries, the improvement of management capabilities, and the elimination of debuffs have made the situation of Fuxing City continue to improve. Although 200,000 people moved out, the monthly gift points provided by Fuxing City increased by 30 points instead of falling.
With the arrival of this monthly income, Gu Hang's income was reduced to only 400 points due to the 400 points spent on training soldiers, the cost of activating Thaddius, and the cost of training the Xiefeng Brigade and the 2nd Division. The gift with 300 points left has returned to 890 points.
Gu Hang will not spend these gift points indiscriminately.
The war he is facing now against the greenskins is the largest battle he has faced since coming to Raging Owl.
Those greenskins are much more difficult to deal with than imagined.
In this month, the total loss of Gu Hang's soldiers was approximately more than 4,000. On the 60-kilometer front, an average of more than 130 people died every day; the number of greenskins killed or injured was about 80. The battle loss ratio was 1:1.6, which was a little ugly.
Mainly because those greenskins have gained some new things recently: artillery and armed pickup trucks.
These two things put a lot of pressure on the front line.
The former is a direct fire attack, and now the infantrymen carrying the front line are subject to heavy fire attacks from time to time. Those green-skinned artillery are also very powerful. If they hit the target, the built fortifications will not be able to withstand it.
The latter is also very troublesome. The armor plates of those armed pickup trucks are rough, but they are indeed very hard, and the speed of the vehicle is not slow. Bursts of black smoke come out from behind the butt of the vehicle, and the multi-barreled machine guns on it are Fierce fire, let’s not talk about whether it is accurate or not, anyway, it can lead four or five greenskins to a place very close to the position.
Often two rocket launchers can destroy a vehicle, but a vehicle of greenskins may not necessarily kill them all. Anyway, it is enough to lead troops to face each other.
Immediately afterwards, the green skin on the face will cause considerable casualties to the soldiers on the defense line.
But if that's just the case, it's actually not a big problem.
The governor's soldiers maintained a front that did not retreat at all.
The green-skinned artillery is quite powerful, but its range is obviously not as far as human cannons. After determining the location of the enemy's artillery position from the ballistics, the 155 howitzer position will often cover it with three or four rounds of shelling.
After the fight, although it is difficult to confirm the results, the green-skinned artillery usually misfires, probably because it was blown away.
As for the newly emerged armed pickup trucks, they can only be blocked by canisters, mines placed forward, obstacles, and the like. Delay its advance as much as possible, and then destroy it with fire strikes.
If they were really allowed to transport the green-skinned infantry, it would be a good fight, but the casualties would be high.
The enemy has appeared with heavy firepower and 'armored' forces, which is very bad news.
Gu Hang himself already felt that something was not right.
After he completed his inspection of the military production line in Wei Xing City, when he returned to the front line of Junk Town, the five interstellar warriors who had arrived in vehicles two days earlier found him immediately and issued a warning.
Gu Hang had earlier sent an invitation to the Phoenix Fighting Group, hoping that they would help solve the greenskin problem outside Garbage Town.
The greenskins are the old rivals of the Space Marines. In the history of the Phoenix, and in their past hundred years of redemption expeditions, they have encountered countless green-skinned opponents.
The term "cancer of the universe" is not something we talk about casually. This kind of enemy really exists widely throughout the universe. It is possible for some particularly fierce green-skinned clans to sweep across and destroy several galaxies.
The Phoenix responded to the governor's call and came here by car from their monastery.
The ten Iron Ox trucks assigned by Gu Hang to the Phoenix have been painted in Phoenix-style paint. The main body is red with white edges and patterns. They are similar to the Union Army's common gray and khaki paint. Very different.
These ten trucks brought not only five Space Marines, but also a hundred heavily armed teenagers.
The Phoenix Monastery previously accepted two hundred teenagers under the age of nineteen for training as a reserve force. One hundred who were too young stayed in the monastery and were continued to be trained by Pastor Rizzo; while the one hundred who came to Junk Town with Chapter Leader Martins were generally older.
Phoenix plans to throw them onto the battlefield and fight.
These young soldiers have only received a month of training in the Phoenix monastery. They are not like Gu Hang who has cheats. No matter how good the ability of this group of Phoenix in training new recruits is, it is not enough to train them in just one month. Elite soldiers are coming.
This was indeed the case, but Phoenix's original intention was not to expect these one hundred teenagers to achieve any results.
This is essentially a elimination.
They only have a gene seed in their hands, so they must select the best one and the one most likely to succeed to undergo the operation. Being thrown into a real battlefield, only those who survive and perform best will be able to enter the final selection circle.
Gu Hang actually had reservations about this.
But it was not for him to interfere with the affairs of other people's war groups, so he just let them go.
Back to the present.
Martins and his four brothers all found Gu Hang as soon as he landed at the Union Army Camp outside Junk Town.
Seeing five giants who were half taller than him surrounding him, Gu Hang felt a little nervous.
Martins said with a serious face: "This war cannot continue like this."
"How to say it?"
"We must launch an attack as soon as possible." Schneider said first, "the earlier the better, attack across the board, eliminate all greenskins as soon as possible, and use flames to completely purify this land."
"Wait a minute... at least tell me the reason first?" Gu Hang said, "I plan to keep the troops on display for a while. Currently, there are still two garrison divisions whose equipment is not in place, and the base number of artillery shells saved is not enough. ...What's more, the overall battle loss ratio is still within an acceptable range. The number of greenskins in the ruins of the tower is estimated to be about 20,000. If we continue to fight at this battle loss ratio, we will pay a price of 30,000 in the end. Can wipe out all those greenskins."
Of course Schneider would not be polite to Gu Hang: "Oh, the premise is that those greenskins keep hitting the defense line until they hit me and die. Do you think it is possible?"
Gu Hang rolled his eyes: "Of course I know it's impossible, but this battle loss ratio must be better than us taking the initiative to attack. According to normal thinking, we should continue to maintain the defensive and let those greenskins hit them until they withstand it. We can’t help but suffer casualties and are exhausted. At the same time, our side is more armed. Wouldn’t it be better to launch a counterattack?”
"There is no such chance." Martins spoke, his tone was much more patient than Schneider, "The greenskins... are a group of enemies that are very difficult to deal with. They are very special. You know, they grow out of the ground. Right? ”
"I know, but growing out of the ground must take time to grow, right?"
"You are right, but the greenskins are aliens born for war. The more intense the war, the faster and faster the growth of their clan will be."
Gu Hang frowned deeply: "You mean... fighting and killing people will actually increase their numbers in the opposite direction?"
This is counter-intuitive information.
Beforehand, Gu Hang really didn't know that green skin had such characteristics.
