A Will Eternal Chapter 1277

As a fortress ship, Buzhoushan also functions as a base ship, like a packaged industrial base.

However, in terms of production capacity alone, it is not even as good as base ships that are less than a third or even a quarter of its size.

The Gein Fortress ship is relatively balanced in all aspects. It is fully armed and has the function of a mother ship. It does not need to be equipped with other types of ships when traveling.

The rapid farming called Xinxiangxing actually showed the farming style of Buzhoushan very well.

That is to provide the core package, and then select the appropriate environment to expand, so as to start farming.

Coming to Gladius, it's the same thing.

Due to the loss of contact for more than two thousand years, Gladius' human civilization and technology have regressed even more seriously.

When mentioning this issue, we must not talk about STC, the standard construction formwork.

This thing is the 'interstellar colonization crutch' invented by humans for themselves.

Of course, that's Kane's take on STC. In fact, the humans of Warhammer 40,000 are quite proud of their own invention, whether it was in the past or the present.

In the past, when science and technology flourished, STC was known as the "portable industry", and its main labels were fast, portable, and frugal.

At that time, if you were going to play the romance of the interstellar era and explore and colonize, then one of the always choices before you was what kind of STC, basic set? Luxury set? Standard Edition, or Supreme Edition? Or simply save a set by yourself, which is like saving a compatible computer at the beginning of the 21st century.

Because of the convenience and thoughtfulness of STC, most developers are users without understanding the principle behind it.

If you think about it, the technology has developed to that level, and the level of refinement and difficulty of each major is daunting. If you must master the principle of what you use, you will probably spend your entire life studying.

Even technicians have learned how to identify common faults and then replace parts. As for the parts that have problems, they can either throw them away, return them to the factory, or simply send the equipment to a 4S shop. In short, most people don’t want to understand, and don’t have the energy to do so.

So once you encounter the so-called force majeure problem, you will be completely paralyzed.

Persistent subspace storms, even this kind of problem. The colonial worlds have become isolated islands, just like the logistics between cities in the 21st century of the earth were cut off overnight, as hard as it takes.

Later, STC became a black technology in the eyes of human beings. Most of it was controlled by the Mechanicus, and some were controlled by the powerful. Ordinary people can't even take a look at it. A compelling topic to talk about.

All in all, even when human technology was the most advanced, few people brought a complete set of industrial systems to colonize.

This means that the dependence on logistics. On your own, you can only complete a certain stage of development at most. For example, exploration is one stage; establishing primary semi-permanent settlements is another stage; determining advantageous projects, starting large-scale immigration, and producing, trading with other colonial worlds is at least the third stage.

Against this background, it is not surprising that the human colonists of Gladius were so sad that they were unable to step out of the gravity well after two thousand years.

Although the empire has ships from thousands of years ago that are still in use, they are basically not lacking in repairs and maintenance.

Another important concept is the cost of maintaining such equipment.

On the earth in the 21st century, there are more than 200 countries, how many can support aircraft carriers?

Starships cost more than aircraft carriers.

Gladius is partial to that kind of hive world.

This kind of world is actually the cosmic version of Foxconn, with cheap labor and factories directly next to the resource points, and then at a low cost, earn hard money + sell raw materials.

It is said that first-rate companies make rules and second-rate companies make brands, so what kind of first-rate company is this?

Therefore, when Gladius was cut off from the outside world, he immediately wanted to cry but had no tears.

Changing production takes time and technology.

It looks like a large group of workers. The environment and technical conditions are not suitable for farming. However, the products produced are piled up like a mountain, and they cannot be exchanged for daily necessities. One can imagine how desperate the situation is.

The Gladius people survived with difficulty, but also lost a lot because of it.

Therefore, the locals, represented by Spencer, were wary of and even resentful of the imperial visitors, and it was understandable for Kane and the accompanying representatives of various imperial institutions.

And Kane brought technical support to the Gladius people that was far from being installed in the empire. Of course, it also brought disputes.

The first one is to deal with the Tyranid gene thief who has become a tarsus maggot.

The name Tyranids was given by humans because of the place where this terrifying creature was first discovered.

There is a saying in the East, called troubled autumn.

It's a big deal when it comes to the harvest of a hard year. Whether it is a good harvest or a reduction in production, it will often become a major reason for using weapons.

The harvest is abundant, the food and grass are sufficient, and it is suitable for expanding the territory.

If the production is reduced, if you don't go to grassland, you will be sad in winter, whether you will die of hunger or cold, or go out to grab a chance to survive, this seems to be an easy choice.

In the Warhammer 40,000 universe, the 41st millennium of the Anthropocene is considered to be an eventful time for the Empire. More important events occurred in this millennium than in the previous 10,000 years.

Tyranid invasion is one of them.

But that happened in the second half of the millennium, and now it is the end of 140 years, and none of the intelligent populations in the entire galaxy has seen the horror of the Tyranids.

Even Kane, who is well-informed and well-informed, cheers up when facing Tyranids.

There are two main reasons.

1. The Zerg in Warhammer 40K is more wild than the Zerg in the StarCraft universe in terms of its nature.

Tyranids are not as artistic as Zegers, seeking the meaning of life.

Tyranids are the extraordinary version of the army ants in the universe. They only uphold one philosophy, food is the paramount necessity of the people. Either sleeping, or eating, or on the way to find food, it's that simple.

Moreover, unlike the Zerg Zerg, only extremely rare Cerebral Worms, Queen of Blades, etc., are involved in psionic energy, Tyranids' use of extraordinary power is quite common.

It can be said that the so-called Zerg biotechnology is actually more or less related to transcendence.

Even the lowest-level cannon fodder velociraptor, if conditions permit, can strengthen the sharp claws with a single molecular layer, not to mention the power armor of the Astartes monks, or the well-known Land speeder, it can still be torn apart. .

2. The Tyranids are not as rational as Abathur, but they are not compatible with the Zerg race.

Tyranids are basically fighting head-on, a majestic division with three axes.

But these three axes are just like the housekeeping skills of wild predators. They are proficient in their proficiency. If they are good, they are ruthless, because if they are not good, they will starve to death.

Simply put, it is pure.

Don't play with adaptive gene loadouts. As far as Tyranids are concerned, this approach is like the various series of weapons produced by Germany during World War II. It seems that each has its own characteristics and advantages, but from a logistical point of view, it is a disaster.

Tyranids only grab one core, which is the ratio of resource throughput.

In the beginning, there were many, and then there were more and more.

In the original history, humans, Eldar, Tau Empire, and orcs all felt at a loss in front of Tyranids.

It is obvious that one battle after another has been won, but the number of enemies is increasing, so that those epic or brilliant victories seem meaningless.

The reason for this is that the focus was wrong from the beginning.

Tyranids are not afraid of the dead at all, and their amazing recycling mechanism allows them to make full use of resources, including the corpses of their own people and enemies, as well as non-ferrous metals, fuel, and so on.

Therefore, Tyranids rarely fight with people in remote areas, such as a decisive battle in the deep space between galaxies.

No, that's not Tyranid mode.

Tyranids will only fight in places with abundant resources, usually the target's home world.

The plate has already been stepped on, and the marching route has also been drawn up. It came suddenly, violently, and with great momentum.

Then the production line is built on the front line.

The war is cruel and the loss is crazy. It is nothing more than keeping less in your pocket, and transforming the obtained resources into combat power, sending them to the front line. You are not afraid of death, as long as you can guarantee that the resources here are always being mined.

This is the competition of throughput efficiency.

In this regard, Tyranids are almost the pinnacle of the Warhammer 40,000 universe.

Therefore, the Eldar who followed the route of elite soldiers, and the Astartes monks who had always been known for their own way in the human empire, were very uncomfortable with the Tyranids.

Tyranids are not just one type. With the continuous acquisition of resources and the deepening of the operation of war machines, some very powerful, nightmare monster-level insects will also appear.

And even if the most basic bugs have enough resources, there will be an increase in added value, from the death at the beginning, to the dangerous and difficult later.

What's more, it is not without reason that the lowest level of war insects is named after the velociraptor. They are very similar to the velociraptors of the dinosaur era. They can be said to be very smart and tactical group hunters. Their fangs and sharp claws are much more powerful than wolves, and they have shooting weapons (crossbow-like biological weapons, meat drill guns).

The knife bug, which is one level higher than the velociraptor, has the ability to sneak and infiltrate although it does not have a shooting weapon.

This ability, described by the game effect, is that when the knife insect swarm approaches the target group (squad or squad mode), the target group is often not allowed to conduct guard shooting (or warning shooting), but first let the knife insect rush to kill a wave.

This is very hurt, the typical strike first, and it is a wave of close-up kills. Substituted into reality, the target group is likely to collapse, unable to organize an effective counterattack, and fall into chaos.

In the original history, IG's battle against the swarm has also confirmed this situation many times. In that situation, it is often necessary for the political commissar to shoot some people on the spot in order to save the decline.

The combat power of the swarm is not weak, but it still uses a simple, no-frills, and extremely difficult to break strategy.

Under this kind of strategic effect, it is difficult for most of the tricks to play their due role, which can be regarded as reducing ten times with one force.

Kane thought to himself that even though he called himself the Iron-Blooded Swarm from the beginning, in some respects, he was ultimately inferior to real bugs.

Human nature, as well as the habit of farming, the habit of preferring to create rather than destroy, will become invisible constraints.

Even because I always traveled through different worlds, I gradually got used to the Elite Stream, and substituting this kind of thinking into my actions unconsciously. He is clear about this.

He actually rejected such a majestic world-destroying battle like the Tyranids from the bottom of his heart.

Because he subconsciously felt that things like living planets were all part of the fruits of victory, and they were smashed to pieces. What are they trying to do?

Therefore, compared to bugs, his thinking is too complicated, adding too much additional meaning to things. It is precisely because of this that he is not as pure as a bug, so he has more loopholes.

After all, the Tyranids were the most bug-like swarm he had ever seen. Pure, wild, unartistic, devouring all resources.

If the evil god is a spiritual nightmare, then the Tyranids are a material nightmare. It is this double nightmare that makes the Warhammer 40K universe look extremely desperate.

Because of this, Kane has long wondered whether he should be more deliberate, so that the big bosses of the empire can see the horror of the Tyranids as soon as possible.

In this way, maybe there will be less intrigue and internal strife?

After thinking about it, forget it. Even if it is known, it is mostly treated as a secret and put on the shelf. It is not easy for the world to know, so as not to cause panic.

And the intrigue and so on will even intensify because of this, and the stage of "after I die, no matter how terrible the flood is."

When there is too much external pressure and there is no effective supervision, if it is all based on individual self-consciousness, the result will probably be like this.

This can be regarded as a drawback of totalitarianism. The requirements for those in power are too high, and those who are not extraordinary and holy cannot really be competent.

Whether you can meet Tyranids or not depends on fate, but fate is very good, and you will meet them.

Since it is also F4, it means that it has been lurking for at least hundreds of years, and Kane treats it like chicken thieves who may attract swarms of bugs to patronize Gladius.

Judging from the military power that the Gladius people now say they have, they might not even count as shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

After some thought, Kane still decided to investigate and execute the hybrid chicken thief as secretly as possible to prevent it from wreaking havoc and causing heavy losses to human society.

He directly used "Forget Nothing" afterwards, strictly controlling the initial number of people who knew the existence of chicken thieves.

Then there is the right to withdraw troops with sweet dates and sticks.

Like in Xinxiang, the production base is not established on the planet, but in space.

Gladius also has no satellites, but Kane didn't rush to get a dwarf planet this time. Mainly because Gladius has buried a lot of secrets, in addition to the Necrons, there are also the remains of the Old Ones.

In contrast, it is better to have a certain sense of awe and vigilance.

Instead of engaging in dwarf planets, you can also get a small celestial body.

Of course, small is only relatively speaking. It is a big ore in itself. After planning, it will be built into a base while mining.

There are four transformed warships that have been captured and turned into nanometers, which is equivalent to having a large-scale infrastructure with strong labor and technicians, and the construction efficiency is quite impressive.

And long before Kane and his party landed on the planet's ground, the engineering project had already started.

While doing construction, while doing investigations.

On the grounds of re-establishing contact with the empire, the defense forces and naval representatives from Terra, personally assessing and selecting our own stormtroopers, we conducted investigations in various units.

Stormtroopers, also known as loyal descendants of stormtroopers. You can tell from the name that the source of soldiers are all from Zhongsi Academy.

As I said before, orphans of military officers and nobles are relatively more likely to become imperial officials such as political commissars, so what about ordinary orphans of military martyrs? Stormtroopers are a common place to go.

As a military academy with fully closed management and heavy political courses, Zhongshi Academy cultivated most of the personnel who were loyal and even fanatical.

It is also this kind of training that makes their military literacy often surpass those of the Defense Force soldiers who are usually recruited into the army.

It can be said that the Stormtroopers are elite soldiers with both political awareness and professionalism. Their equipment, compared with ordinary soldiers, also has differences similar to those of the Earth special forces and field soldiers. Generally speaking, laymen can recognize at a glance that the empire has invested more money in stormtroopers.

Stormtroopers are all from the School of Loyalty, but for those IG regiments with sufficient resources and enough outstanding veterans, it is not difficult to establish their own troops similar to Stormtroopers.

For example, the famous Cadian Infantry Regiment, also known as the Cadian Blitz Army, their Kashejin troops are elite, equivalent to the special forces in the army, not inferior to the Stormtroopers at all.

And the famous Krieg Death Corps, they have a very old school internal team called the Grenadiers. Also elite.

There is also the Catachan Corps, the only and the first regiment of Tinis, each has its own elite troops.

The cake that Kane is throwing out now is to establish such an elite force in Gladius.

This is not just to check for chicken thief hybrids, but to really build it.

This news naturally encouraged Gladius' garrison from top to bottom.

They were still worried. After all, they had been out of contact for two thousand years and had been away from the empire for so long. Would the empire still recognize them? Should they simply be downgraded to the Planetary Defense Force, or should they undergo strict assessment and eliminate all unqualified ones?

Unexpectedly, the empire actually accepted it in its entirety. And will select elites from among them, at the same level as the legendary Stormtroopers, what a great honor it is?

Moreover, they also heard that even for ordinary soldiers, their welfare benefits will be improved, as well as their outfits, more advanced weapons and armors, which is really good news!

This kind of news spread not only among the light infantry corps, but also among different military units such as tank regiments and artillery regiments.

The betrayal of the Space Marine Corps headed by Horus hurt the Empire the most and deeply, but it was not the only one. It can be said that in the long history of tens of thousands of years, the empire has experienced countless betrayals.

In addition, the rulers of the empire also have a certain degree of self-awareness about their behavior of not taking the lives of ordinary soldiers seriously, so the military classification is very strict, in order to prevent traitors from mastering a fully functioning military force.

An independent regiment like Rodriguez's is essentially a light infantry regiment without an official number.

Their equipment is also lackluster, just bulletproof armor, and a laser rifle. They don't even have anti-infantry fragmentation grenades or anti-armor fragmentation grenades, let alone melta bombs against vehicle tanks.

The poor equipment also means that there is a lack of training in other types of weapons and corresponding tactics. To put it simply, Rodriguez's independent regiment is actually a security force that can deal with a civil unrest, not a field army.

However, it is such a troop, the discipline is quite good.

Although the Imperial Guard has always emphasized faith, discipline, and sacrifice. But after two thousand years of breaking away from the spur-style management of imperial administration, state religion, and the military, he still has such a military appearance. Kane feels that the commander here has contributed a lot.

"Cinderella becomes a princess, at least Cinderella must have a good background. The foundation of this army is fine, I believe the effect of becoming a princess will be particularly bright..."
