Chapter 422: Restlessness (Part II)

The thing that I came into contact with the most in the mission was firearms, which were amazingly powerful, no matter what model caliber or what specification the bullet was, it was a deadly threat to humans. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 But compared to the armored vehicles in the middle of the basin, the guns fired by them weighed one or two hundred pounds, and the power of the explosion could tear all the human bodies within a few meters of the surrounding area into pieces.

The explosion may have little effect on the operator, but the steel fragments produced are always in a different stage than the steel shell bombs that have been used. It's good that there are fewer such armored vehicles, but there are enough of them, the power of the concentrated fire, and the locking mechanism of the differential control analysis compared to the speed of the shells and the differential control analysis, the surgeon doesn't seem to have much to do in the face of these things except to hide behind a hard enough rock mass like ordinary humans and shrink their heads.

"That thing is one of the main firepower of the army on the ground, there are a lot of them, and there is a special storage house here in the volcano base for those armored vehicles. And in order for these armored vehicles to smoothly and quickly drive out of the volcanic base and be deployed on the battle line, the ring mountains of the opposite basin have been drilled into a number of huge tunnels, which are only used to pass through these armored vehicles and combat vehicles, and those land-borne bomb vehicles can also pass, but not much. Doyle said, "When you first come here, you don't know anything, where it is, what it's for, and so on. A few days would be fine, and it wasn't a big deal. ”

Doyle then led Cassia up the spiral staircase down to the top of the basin, walked a few steps to the base train station he had just seen, hitched a ride on a freight train, and drove them to the building surrounded by huge trees. Life, command, monitoring, communications, most of the facilities are there, and the rest are a few buildings scattered in the warehouse base.

On the way, we passed through an airfield that could be described as empty, and the landing gear shock absorbers that went deep into the ground were all wrapped in layers of turquoise rainproof cloth. There were only a dozen or so airships of unknown grades parked there, and there were no models and codes written on the navy blue bodies, and their lengths far exceeded those of the cruiser-level commercial spaceships, about six hundred meters. More than a dozen airships lined up in a row, completely a metal wall that could not be crossed, and the oppression and the mottled and old erosion marks on their bodies could be felt far away. 、

Now I don't know if it's repairing or maintaining, it's full of vehicles, ladders and mechanical arms, and hundreds of people are climbing on them, holding tools and tinkering with something. A few square meters of steel plates were torn down in many pieces, revealing the complex transmission mechanism inside, and the twisted pipes and wiring were all exposed, and those people were dealing with them. From a distance, the logistics staff lying on it in blue clothes compared to the airship, which is a negligible pile of ant-like organisms.

The area of the entire airport could not be ignored in the basin, but now it was completely empty, and at a glance, it was difficult to see what was available, except for the dozen or so airships.

"This is a time when there are a lot of airships, and the number of airships that are usually parked here is less than three. I don't know from which base I didn't know from recently that the extra few ships flew here, but they stopped and didn't fly into the sky again. Doyle went on to describe the norm at the Volcano Base, "The airport has always been empty, and it is said to be an airfield, but most of the soldiers here treat him as an open field. I have been here for more than ten years, and it has been empty, and those rainproof cloths have been changed every two years, and when they are rotten, they have been replaced, and by the way, they have returned the anti-rust oil and inspection and maintenance on the wrapped landing rack. I don't know what the Imperial Military thinks about these airports, not only here at the volcano base, but also from others, and the same is true for airports in other places. The construction is of a very high standard, with a variety of standards and conditions, and the cost is extremely expensive, but the number of uses is almost zero. I don't think it's because there aren't enough airships, maybe it's not enough to send a lot of airships here. If one day, all of a sudden, the light in front of you dimmed, and you looked up and saw a line of airships in the sky parked in the sky, then it would be the beginning of the war. ”

This time will not be far away, Kasia replied silently in her heart. Looking at the airport in front of him, which was so empty that there was only air, he also had the same questions as Doyle.

"And those airships don't go out on missions, and they are very enthusiastic about maintenance every once in a while. When you need air support, or when you need to use air power to search for something, you also use cheap airboats, the one with hydrogen on top. The power is also steam driven, but it is not very easy to use, I have been up before, and it feels light. The slightest bit of weather went wrong, it was 'crash landing!' and after that, I didn't try to take an empty boat again. ”

Seeing Doyle's uncomfortable face, Kasia could roughly imagine what it would be.

It took about half an hour for the two to be pulled by train to the edge of the complex. Passing through a tranquil wooded area with a width of several hundred meters, there is a delicate low-rise building.

With the printed materials and detailed arrangements from the Ministry of Communications, Doyle had no specific task on him, so he personally took Kasia to the accommodation management building to get the password card corresponding to the room number, and led him to his room.

This scene reminded Cassia of the feeling of having just entered the military academy, and the things she experienced seemed to be the same.

"It's still one person in one room, Kasia, your identity seems to be special. Doyle said on the way, "Advance notice will be given to the personnel appointed by the Imperial military, and you should also have optically encrypted files with you." And every time people come, they are also in piles, and I have only seen one or two times with a person like you, but they are also dozens of people who come together. Maybe you're in a similar situation to those people、、、"

As soon as these words stopped, Doyle remembered the reminders and advice he had given many times over the years, and now he suddenly realized that there would be no other identity than a military commissioner. But it was rare to see someone with whom he wanted to say a few words, and Doyle probably had an itch in his mouth, and felt that in some common "things" on the front, it was better to remind a few words out of the good feeling of the first meeting. It's not uncommon for dead people to die here, and the enemy doesn't always come from the Far Sea Commons.
