The core area of ​​the arsenal is not an assembly workshop, a laboratory, or a warehouse, but a rather luxurious office building. Of course, it may not be appropriate to use the term office building, because it is an office building in name, but in reality, it is a peaceful haven for the high-levels of the arsenal for recreation and lodging.

In addition to providing various services such as fitness, video and audio, chess and cards, the building itself is also a large-scale refuge, plus a communication command center.

For companies with military backgrounds such as the Makanda Arsenal, most of their back-end bosses belong to the imperial aristocracy. Even the large and small smelting and processing centers around the arsenal are controlled by other nobles or nepotism. .

Not to mention the swimming pool glowing with light green waves, the beautifully decorated audio-visual enjoyment room, and the outer skin of the entire building is actually wrapped by a thick layer of composite titanium armor. Even for large weapons such as missiles, cannons, and electromagnetic railguns, it is not possible to break through its defenses in a short while.

As a noble class, they are very concerned about their personal safety. In addition to the defensive performance of the battleship class, the "office building" also provides the ability to resist nuclear bombs. There is an underground room that is several meters thick. Covered by the radiation-proof structure, and stocked with food, clean water, clothing, shoes and hats, as well as radio stations, defense robots and other daily life and communication defense configurations.

This is also the reason why Montgomery was besieged by the Sea Falcon commando group, but still persisted for so long. Similarly, it was also the reason why Stilwell, Schonette, and others determined that as long as they broke through the defense line, they could rescue him.

When Stilwell led the three of Tang Fang to come here, Montgomery and several staff officers of the command system were still in the underground refuge room and did not come up. After placing Tang Fang in a room to rest, Stilwell took Grant, Schonite, etc. People take the elevator to pick up Montgomery.

The victory of this battle was due to the help of Tang Fang and others. Without them, the Union Army of Northern Jiangsu would have been defeated by the government forces. As a commander, Montgomery should and must personally greet them, so as to show sufficient sincerity and politeness.

While waiting, Tang Fang couldn't bear to be lonely. He asked Aros and Howson to turn around and walked out of the rest hall and walked to other rooms in the "office building". The guards swept through the power armor on his body, and couldn't help but stand in awe, saluting one by one.

Compared with the ordinary soldiers outside, they are all veterans of the García rebels who have been battle-tested. When they launched the counterattack, they witnessed the powerful combat effectiveness of the assault team led by Aros and Howson. The reverence for the strong and the gratitude for the life-saving grace made them the same as those of ordinary rebel soldiers. Even if they had never seen Tang Fang, as long as he was wearing this power armor, he was worthy of their respect. man of.

In the face of such courtesy, Tang Fang smiled to everyone.

I remembered that when I was in the barracks, the soldiers looked at the officer's eyes, except for fear and numbness, there was no other feeling. In the Imperial Army, the relationship between officers and soldiers is more like a butcher and cattle and sheep to be slaughtered. You will never know when those people will send you into the gate of ghosts.

walked around the corridor, and when he passed the data processing center, he was suddenly attracted by a picture on the display instrument on the other side of the glass window. It was a rotating power armor pattern, slightly different from the "Guardian Knights" of the Empire.

To the guard who was on duty outside, Tang Fang stepped into the room.

It can be seen that this is a large-scale database that stores the development, operation, and production information of the arsenal. The picture I saw before was particularly eye-catching in the images displayed by the surrounding row of imaging devices.

stepped closer, carefully distinguished, only to see a line of notes under the rotating 3D model, the content is EK-305 "Earth Knight" power armor.

"Earth Knight? What is the connection with the Guardian Knight? Could it be the newly developed power armor of the Empire?" Considering that you will inevitably be an enemy of the Empire in the future, knowing yourself and the enemy can survive a hundred battles, Tang Fang stepped forward and clicked on a touch hot spot.

The screen flashed, and a confidential document of thousands of words appeared in front of you, including the research and development purpose, history and progress of the "Earth Knight", as well as various attack and defense data, as well as many derivative models of research reports and other information, divided into Several items are displayed very clearly and intuitively.

The original research and development purpose of the "Earth Knight" was to deal with the "Ai Russia" power armor of the Charles Federation. The Monya Empire has always been at a disadvantage in terms of land warfare, especially on the battlefield of mechanized infantry duels. This is closely related to the performance and characteristics of the power armor of both parties.

According to the classification rules of the human society on the Milky Way galaxy, from large to small, it is divided into star regions, large star regions, and general star regions.

If it is simply based on the number of star systems as the standard, a star field, the number of star systems to which it belongs, is in units of 10,000, ranging from 20,000 to 30,000 and more than hundreds of thousands. Beneath the star field is a large star area, referred to as "large area". Even the smallest star area will be divided into several large star areas. Generally speaking, the number of stars in large regions ranges from 1,000 to 10,000. The general star area belongs to the territorial division mode set by the major empires, which is equivalent to the provinces or autonomous prefectures in the ancient earth era. The number of star systems ranges from one to a dozen or nearly a hundred.

To use a more vivid metaphor, the star field is equivalent to the earth. The big star area is the continent on the planet, and the ordinary star area is the name of each country's administrative region.

With the maneuverability of the "Ai Russia" power armor, even in the Hieronymus region, which belongs to the Monya Empire, the Sulu Empire, the Charles Federation, and the Turanx United Kingdom, it can be said to be outstanding and among the best.

In comparison, the "Canned Tuna" of the Monya Empire has superior defensive performance, but is far behind in terms of agility and agility. In many short-term engagements with the Charles Union, the Imperial Marine Corps often suffered losses in the hands of the soldiers of the Charles Union due to the lack of mobility of the power armor.

In order to solve this strategic defect in individual combat, the major scientific research institutes of the Empire have launched countless intense discussions. Considering that if we simply start from agility, the entire power armor structure, accessories, operating system, etc. must be re-adjusted and updated, and the upgrade difficulty is no less than redesigning a power armor. Refreshing the technology tree, evaluating the performance of accessories, determining new technological processes, on-site inspection and evaluation of test models, performance optimization, etc., etc., after this series of procedures, if you want to put it into actual combat, there is no effort in 20 or 30 years. , It is simply wishful thinking.

The battle between the Empire and the Charles Federation is in full swing. How can there be so much time to wait? In desperation, after another round of discussions, the scientific research department gave another set of solutions. Since the agility of the "Guardian Knight" is no longer sufficient, no matter how much adjustment it is, it is difficult to achieve a level comparable to that of "Ai Russia". It would be better to go to the dark by night and make a fuss about the superior defense performance.

The usual practice of the Charles Federation is not to rely on the superior terrain, to divide and encircle, to carry out campaign warfare? As for the empire, it simply carried out the tortoise defense to the end, relying on a stronger defense force, braking with silence, and waiting for work.

Since then, the "Earth Knight" plan has been released. From all aspects of data, this new model of power armor can be regarded as an upgraded version of the "Guardian Knight". It is in terms of armor weight, exoskeleton, communication system, etc. While fine-tuning the module, further thickens the outer armor to improve defense performance.

Of course, in addition to these, there is another revolutionary change, that is, a storage device is opened behind the power armor to store the "Ulikmi Shield."

"Ulikmi's Shield" is a foldable tactical shield named by its developer Dr. Melson Dro. The main material for making this shield is a carbon steel alloy which is known for being light, strong and cheap. Of course, this is not the point, the point is a layer of "zero element" coating on the front of the shield body.

Because the development and utilization of "Zero Element" is still in its infancy, the resource conversion rate is low. During the refining process, it is inevitable that some crystal residues containing zero elements will appear. The "zero element" coating on the shield of the "Ulikmi Shield" is a protective film made of these crystal residues combined with some polymer industrial materials.

The combination of 　　 coating and carbon steel alloy greatly increases the shield's defensive performance, heat resistance and corrosion resistance, and has strong resistance to high temperature, high explosion, kinetic energy impact, and even nuclear radiation.

This kind of tactical shield, which is easy to carry, has excellent defense performance, and is low-cost, brings a brand-new combat system to the Imperial soldiers. By fixing the multi-faceted "Ulikmi Shield" to the ground, soldiers at the rear will have an effect similar to that of a bunker defense. Therefore, he was immovable as a mountain, and calmly faced the swiftness of the Charles Union soldiers.

According to the data obtained from the test model, the defense of the "Earth Knight" equipped with this "Ulikmi Shield" has been greatly improved, and it can resist 12.7MM large-caliber machine guns, unless large-caliber machine guns are used. Sniper, or heavy machine gun, otherwise, it is difficult to cause a devastating blow to it.
