Chapter 174: Abandoned son

Or is it a abandoned son in the war? How is this possible? The abandoned son in the war will deploy an independent regiment here, airdrop materials here, and airdrop soldiers here?

"No way?" Zhao Li smiled bitterly. The old guy Kang Hongyuan either didn't speak, saying directly that he didn't understand. Or he was the key point as soon as he spoke: "We have achieved a phased victory now, why did the above give up? Don't they want energy additives?"

"If they want it, why has it always been your financial backer who spent a lot of money to hire a fleet, instead of the military picking up goods directly from you?" Kang Hongyuan said the current fact: "Don't say that their warships cannot pass, they can airdrop materials and soldiers, which means that their transportation capacity is not tight, and the battle situation should not be so nervous as it is so nervous that one or two warships cannot be sent out?"

Kang Hongyuan’s question is very sharp, but it is worth pondering. Look at me, I look at you, and I have returned to the point where no one speaks.

"If, I mean if." Seeing that everyone was not very interested, Kang Hongyuan took the initiative to ask a question: "If the energy weapon really comes out, from design and finalization to production, and then to equipment troops to form combat effectiveness, how long will it take? You are all military experts, let's roughly estimate it?"

Zhao Li never thought about this problem, and it is estimated that James and Sanders are the same. When Kang Hongyuan mentioned this, everyone started to start to think that energy additives could greatly improve the performance of the battery and thus make the use of energy weapons possible, but they never considered it in actual operation.

"Ye Lin, you have participated in the development process of this weapon, so let's roughly estimate it." Only Ye Lin has participated in the development process of weapons. Although he is a biological and chemical weapon, it should also provide a certain reference.

"The design process should be longer than other processes." Ye Lin thought about it and began to answer: "After all, this is a new weapon. In order to avoid the trouble of upgrading weapons in the future, the high-energy battery will be standardized as much as possible at the beginning. These include designing energy output, standard interfaces, etc., and application testing under various conditions, which is also a very troublesome thing."

"This is just the design of high-energy batteries. After the standardized high-energy batteries are standardized, the gun family should be designed for this standardized interface. Of course, this can be carried out at the same time as the battery, but it is not so easy to design a gun family." Ye Lin thought of this and looked at everyone with a hint of exclamation: "You are all experts, don't you need to say more, right?"

"Tell me, look." The person who spoke was Kang Hongyuan. He was not very good at these things, so of course he had to listen carefully and carefully. Any clues could determine his judgment, so he made a request when this soldier didn't need to speak more.

Ye Lin was a little surprised and suddenly turned his gaze to Zhao Li. Zhao Li looked at Ye Lin's enquiring gaze and nodded slightly. However, he was also a little surprised. Ye Lin actually asked for his own opinions. Could it be that he really regarded himself as the leader of the organization?

"Different firearms have different functions. For example, depending on the firepower, they should be designed separately for light firepower and heavy firepower to achieve various functions such as individual soldiers' use and fire suppression. It is impossible for all soldiers to use the same weapon, and they always need to be distinguished. Understand?" After saying so much, Ye Lin asked Kang Hongyuan.

Kang Hongyuan nodded and signaled that he understood that he did not understand the specific dispatch of troops, but at least he knew the difference between pistols, rifles, machine guns, heavy machine guns, sniper rifles.

"If you want to design, you have to design it all." Seeing Kang Hongyuan nodding, Ye Lin began to continue: "It is impossible for some soldiers to use energy weapons, while other soldiers to use gunpowder weapons. This is not only a battle inconsistency, but also a big logistical trouble."

"Understand that chaotic weapons will cause disastrous consequences to the army's logistics. I understand this." Kang Hongyuan took the initiative to express that he understood this and did not need Ye Lin to ask again.

"The design and testing cycle of firearms is about one year." Kang Hongyuan continued, and Ye Lin continued: "In addition to the standardized design and battery testing, it should be from one to one and a half years. Then there is production."

"In terms of production, it is relatively simple. As long as the production line is adjusted according to the type of production, this is not a problem for those old arms manufacturers. At most, a few months." Ye Lin then described the production time: "It should take about half a year from the start of production to the large-scale installation."

"Soldier training. It takes about one year for a new soldier. For veterans, it should be solved in about two months." Ye Lin's description, personnel training is the simplest. After all, after the design is finalized, the rest is simple. And it doesn't take too long to let a veteran master a new weapon.

"If you count this way, it should take about two years to change the government forces as a whole, right?" Kang Hongyuan came to the above conclusion after listening to Ye Lin's description.

"More than that!" Zhao Li raised objections at this time. At James's suggestion, Zhao Li began to explain: "Replacing new and old weapons will cause huge pressure on the logistics of the war zone, and this pressure also needs to be gradually relieved until all weapons are replaced. During this period, it depends on the number of troops and the intensity of the war zone."

"In addition, because of the new concept of weapons, the entire battlefield command idea will change accordingly. Perhaps now adapting to gunpowder weapons, it is impossible to adapt to energy weapons by then. Maybe not only will it not bring victory, but it may also affect the end of the war. Of course, this is just a local war. From this point of view, it will take about eight to ten years to change the overall tactical thinking, the change of tactical theory and command mode, and the overall soldiers adapt to this system." (I don't know how long it took to go from cold weapons to hot weapons. This time is nonsense here, and there is no basis, so everyone should read the novel.)

"Yeah." After hearing this time, Kang Hongyuan started to ponder. After pondering for a while, he raised his head: "In other words, if you are equipped with new weapons, it is impossible to win in a short period of time?"

"It's hard to say." Zhao Li was not sure: "After all, using energy weapons will greatly improve the load on the soldiers, and the original protective measures will not be upgraded in time, so it is still possible to win in a short time. Of course, if one party is equipped with energy weapons but the other party is not equipped, the victory balance will definitely be tilted."

"We can ignore the following." Kang Hongyuan didn't think about such a complicated military tug-of-war: "We only start from when the military needs our additives." He turned to Ye Lin: "You just said that it takes about a year to a year and a half from design to finalization, right?" He faced whoever he talked to. This is the communication and respect method of Zhao Li who he taught, and he used it himself.

Ye Lin nodded. Kang Hongyuan turned back: "So. In other words, the military will not need our products at least a year later. Do you have any objections to this?"

Although Ye Lin has not participated in the design process of conventional weapons, Zhao Li and the others have a certain understanding of this. Even if there are differences, it will not be too big. During the design process, the military research institutions do not need a large amount of additives. After all, this thing is just an additive, and a small amount of samples is enough. The two batches of goods sent out before are definitely enough. When Kang Hongyuan was confirmed, everyone nodded.

"And for such a long time, the military did not send heavy troops to protect our monopoly resources production site. What does this mean?" After analyzing all this, Kang Hongyuan directly raised a question to everyone and asked everyone to answer it.

According to general logic, this is very abnormal. Since the military now has the ability to airdrop materials and personnel, but does not dispatch heavy troops, just to eliminate the majority of the rebel infantry on the marginal planets with just a few rounds of bombing? This is really unreasonable.

"Draw the recent actual control front of the rebels!" Zhao Li's mind moved and he directly expressed this view.

Sanders and James began to follow Zhao Li's request, and soon everyone saw the current distribution of the rebels' military forces on the central screen.

"Is the rebel front a little too long?" As soon as such a clear picture came out, everyone soon saw the problem. Sanders pointed to the narrow area on the interstellar map and couldn't help frowning.

"Is this a situation deliberately caused by the Supreme Command?" Everyone knows that the longer the front line, the more difficult it is to replenish logistics. Once the supply line is cut off, then the rebels will have an overall trend of defeat in a very long area.

"We are now the bait to attract the rebels to continue to lengthen the front line." James looked at the battlefield situation chart so clearly, and couldn't help but punch the wall next to him: "Whatever the battle is fierce and the people who can't get through at all are all pretexts. The more we fight here, the happier we will be. The more we will attract the rebels' attention. Damn, there are important strategic materials and garrison soldiers who fight to the death. If the government forces don't care about this, who would believe it?"

"Maybe, the Supreme Command is even willing to provide energy additives to the rebels under the circumstances of no choice." Sanders took James's words: "In this way, the rebels will inevitably feel that energy weapons are a huge temptation and start to invest huge manpower and material resources to start research and development. The overall power of the rebels is not as strong as the federal government. If they are distracted, they will definitely drag down the entire war industry foundation. At that time, the government forces launched a large-scale counterattack and even laid a chance to win in one fell swoop."

Sanders' speculation became faster and faster. It seemed that everyone had already understood the problem. The more they thought, the clearer they would be in their position. Speaking of which, this is definitely not good news.

"It's not only that." Kang Hongyuan sighed: "Under this situation, no matter whether the rebels swallow this bait or not, there is only one ending." Seeing everyone's attention being concentrated, Kang Hongyuan smiled bitterly: "The rebels will take the bait, so it will be more dangerous to distract their energy and lengthen the front line. If the rebels do not take the bait, then the Federation can just take out energy weapons, and expand the gap in weapons between the two sides bit by bit, and eventually win. It's so clever and open-minded, it's not right to deal with it, and it's even worse to deal with it." When he spoke, Kang Hongyuan's tone was full of sincere admiration for the designer of this bureau: "If this guy is in politics, he is definitely a master among the masters."

If Sanders's inference before gave everyone a clear understanding of their current situation, they were also a little dissatisfied with the design of the rebels with their own lives, but after hearing Kang Hongyuan's later inference, everyone's dissatisfaction became admiration. Such a clever method is worthy of the work of the Supreme Command.

If you consider it from the perspective of a federal soldier, the means to win is the best way. However, when you become the abandoned son who must be sacrificed, it feels completely different.

"Okay!" Zhao Li coughed gently, pulling everyone back from all kinds of emotions just now: "We are still abandoning our children now, and we need to lure the rebels into the bait. The problem is that we must not only ensure our safety, but also take the opportunity to grow and grow. Of course, we must also try not to destroy the above layout as much as possible. What are you doing now?"

"Or the rebel commander has seen it?" Ye Lin asked a foolish question: "If they don't take the bait, they won't blame us, right?"

"Old Kang had just said that this was an open conspiracy. No matter how the rebels responded, they had to face it." Zhao Li didn't know what Ye Lin wanted to say, so he answered him first.

"I mean, if the rebels discovered the problem after a period of time, as long as they bombed our production base, wouldn't the government's plan be lost?" Ye Lin finally said his words.

Everyone was considering how to protect themselves while attacking the enemy and strengthening themselves, but they never thought of such a unique skill to cut off the fire from the bottom of the pot. As soon as Ye Lin's words came out, everyone immediately woke up.

"Maybe, this is our opportunity!" Kang Hongyuan's eyes lit up, and as if light had appeared in an instant, everyone saluted him in a scrutiny manner.

"The above has set up this bureau for the rebels. Obviously, the rebels have not seen through it yet, otherwise they would not have sent people to seize the rainforest mining industry." Kang Hongyuan became excited: "The problem is that if the rebels suddenly see through it after a period of time and take action to remove firewood from the cauldron, the advantage of the government forces will no longer exist. This is something that the superiors cannot tolerate. They will definitely send heavy troops to protect them before all this happens."
