"It's just a preliminary idea, but it's already allowed us to reduce the cost of manufacturing industrial products on a large scale," Rex said. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoMore advanced 3D printing technology and automation technology can allow our weapons to be 'printed' directly from the arsenal, which once again reduces labor costs. ”

"I know, otherwise, how could we have expanded our power to the current scale in just a few years. Just those Kodiak-class battlecruisers, if they were built with the manufacturing industry of this world, I am afraid that even if it takes ten years, they may not be able to build one. However, it only took us half a year to complete five ships. For Rex's words, Lin Hai also quite acknowledged, "That's why I don't think that the use of unmanned weapons is completely impossible, as long as our manufacturing speed can catch up with the enemy's destruction speed, it will become a war of attrition, and in the end we can also win." As long as we can win, the remains of unmanned weapons that were previously destroyed can be recovered, thus further reducing our consumption costs. ”

"That's why we've been fighting for decades." Rex said in a heavy voice, "This is how the Machine Alliance fights against humans. A complete war of attrition, flooding the human army's defenses with a tidal wave, and even if all the ammunition is exhausted, the metal tsunami in front of you will not decrease. That kind of powerlessness is something that people who haven't seen it can't experience. ”

"But didn't you stabilize the war in the end, and push back the area occupied by the Machine Alliance at the beginning of the war?"

"That's right, that's right." Rex's voice grew heavier, "It seems that the others haven't talked much about the war between humans and robots from you. But when you think about it, it wasn't a good memory. ”

Lin Hai nodded, Rex was right, every time he wanted to ask those veterans from another world about the details of the war, the veterans would shirk it for various reasons, only occasionally because of some necessary circumstances, they would explain some relevant content to Lin Hai, but they would never talk about the process of the war in detail, and Lin Hai was not willing to force these clone warriors to tell everything they had experienced.

Now, according to Rex, Lin Hai can also guess that the process must be quite tragic and painful, otherwise with the initial design of the clone soldiers without human emotions, there will be no situation to restore human emotional reactions, and the experience has made these warriors who were originally used as robots face various battlefield tragies, forcing the hidden human emotions of those clone soldiers to recover under the greatest stimulation.

"You should have heard Chen Xi say it, Dr. Kane, I mean the gene prototype, the reason why the clone army plan was approved by the United Council back then was to take advantage of the fact that the number of robot armies far exceeded the human army, and many times the human army organized by the council was either wiped out or suffered extremely heavy losses, and when the training of soldiers could not keep up, even the most stubborn parliamentarians had to vote for approval, which made the clone army plan pass. It was also because of the appearance of clone soldiers who were equivalent to robot soldiers that the battle situation improved......"

"So you are also equivalent to using crowd tactics, fighting for huge casualties, to press the robot back?" After listening to Rex's explanation, even if he didn't continue, Lin Hai understood what he meant, but Lin Hai didn't understand a little, what does this have to do with whether the unmanned combat weapon they discussed before has become the regular main force of the Iron Eagle, "That's why I want to use unmanned weapons to reduce your losses, we have also talked about this question before, right?" ”

"Yes, we've talked a few times before." Rex admitted, "What I'm going to say now has to do with that. After the Clone Army plan was approved by the Council, it did not immediately bear fruit, and the number of Clone Armies did not reach a certain size, and the end of the robot army would not be much better than that of natural people, during this time period, in order to gain time for the formation of the Clone Army, humans continued to launch 10,000 megaton nuclear bombs on Mars. Although most of them were intercepted by the robot's lasers in high orbits, more than 1,000 of them were successfully detonated on Mars, and the powerful electromagnetic waves generated caused the Robot Alliance to fail to continue to attack the human-controlled area within a week after the end of the nuclear bomb attack, thus gaining valuable time for the creation, mobilization, and deployment of the Clone Legion. ”

"So, at what cost?" Lin Hai asked, knowing very well that Rex would not tell him such a story for no reason.

"It took nearly half a century for humans to initially terraform the Martian ecosphere, which was completely destroyed, and the humans who still stayed on Mars could only return to the ecological dome used by humans when they first colonized Mars. Those who leave the dome must also wear subsistence clothing. We clones are no exception, and Dr. Kane's biotechnology isn't enough for us to survive without oxygen. We who are sent to Mars to fight also need all kinds of protective equipment. You've also used those armored combat suits, from the simplest standard combat suits, to the best force field armor suits, and even power armor, each of which is airtight and has an oxygen device to ensure that our operations on the Martian battlefield are not affected. In this way, it is equivalent to increasing the manufacturing cost of clone soldiers from another aspect. And compared to robots whose shells are damaged and have little to do with them, our combat uniforms in that environment, once damaged, if they can't be dealt with in time, then the clone soldiers will only have a dead end. In such an unfavorable situation, we are fighting fiercely with robots in the way of a sea of flesh and blood. The casualties of the first few battles alone exceeded the total number of casualties of all previous casualties of the natural human forces. ”

"So?"

"You should remember the plasma storm that the Sijing people created before that almost half the world, right? That was not long ago. ”

"Of course I do."

"Then you also know that during that storm, a considerable number of electronic devices, including ourselves, were rendered useless by the effects of electromagnetic waves. We did the same thing back then, otherwise it would not be so easy for us to fight with our human lives, and it would not be so easy to defeat robots that are less afraid of death than us and are not affected by any pain. ”

"Strong electromagnetic interference? You've done it too? Hearing this, Lin Hai naturally remembered the trip to North America he had experienced at that time, the drone could not be lifted into the air at all, and the air fighter was difficult to control, if it was not for the special enhanced modification of the standard transport aircraft, even he would not be able to reach North America.
