When Allen came to Peter's dormitory, two soldiers in the dormitory were shaking their wrists, and the people on both sides were booing loudly. As a black soldier yelled and knocked his opponent down with force, the booing was so loud that it almost knocked off the roof.
"Sergeant, you're here." Peter also squatted aside, and when he saw Allen, he got up and called.
The other soldiers greeted Allen one after another and asked when the next test would be. They were so excited about the test in the afternoon that if Peter hadn't taken them away, they really wanted to stay in the workshop. Peter pushed the soldiers away, put his arm around Allen's shoulder and said, "Drink?"
Allen shook his head and said, "You still hid alcohol in the dormitory."
"What a big deal." A soldier stood up and said, "I was kicked into the frontier army because I hid wine in the barracks."
"Come on, Sai Luo. How did I hear that you were drunk and abolished the roots of your chief's descendants before you were assigned to the frontier army." Someone jumped up to refute.
The man roared angrily: "Damn Pied, you are not a good bird. You don't know it yet, this guy slept with their major's woman, otherwise, he wouldn't be thrown into the frontier army Come here."
The soldiers all laughed.
At this time, Peter took out a tin jug from under the bed, drank it himself and threw it to Alan. Allen shrugged and said, "I don't want to listen to the story and have to drink."
He unscrewed the cap and took a sip too. Unexpectedly, the wine was very spicy, so he coughed a few times, threw the jug back to Peter and said, "What is this?"
"We brewed it ourselves. You know, the life of the frontier army is very boring." Peter laughed, but there was no seeming malice in the laughter in the past.
Allen sighed: "What kind of wine is this? It's alcohol at all."
"No way, we usually rely on this thing to anesthetize ourselves. If we face the uninhabited border every day, we will go crazy." The black man who won the wrist just now pointed to himself and said: "My name is Vulcan, You have to remember me, sir. I am a hundred times stronger than these sissies."
"I'm not afraid of flashing your tongue when you talk big, but it's just that you beat Gurney, and you really think you're so good, Vulcan." Someone whistled and taunted.
The black man immediately yelled and stepped forward to reason. Of course, the results of their theories usually turn violent.
"What a noisy guy." Peter said, digging his ear with his little finger.
Allen nodded: "But it's also very energetic."
"This is also forced out. If it wasn't for the noisy all day long, maybe I couldn't bear the loneliness and ended myself." Peter walked to the balcony and looked at the playground in the distance: "Sergeant, you I can't imagine that kind of loneliness. These guys are not afraid of death, and they don't care too much about credit. Of course, it is undeniable that there are some cowards among them. However, the army kicked us away like garbage and ignored them. Then This neglected loneliness will kill us all."
"People like this often need to constantly prove their value. No matter what value is good, it is proof of life, or existence. But if you are thrown into the frontier army, you will treat it as air, and there is nothing for you To prove yourself. After staying for a long time, you will feel that you are not as good as a pebble on the roadside. At least pebbles sometimes trip over people's feet, but we are not even qualified to become obstacles."
Pete took a sip of his wine and said, "Nobody cares about us,
Whether it is life or death, those big people don't care. We don't have a mission, and sometimes we go to attack the small tribe of the sword demon, and we just have nothing to do. There are official/documents on the head, but it is just that as the war progresses, the borders also change, and we have to move accordingly. "
"How could this be?" Allen frowned, "I thought every soldier was valuable to the Federation."
"Because it's too far away from the earth, even if the federal government doesn't have this idea, it's impossible for President Mobit to see us small characters." Peter laughed at himself: "So, on the battlefield of Pluto Star Of course, those adults have the final say."
Allen has a deep understanding of this. Not long ago, he nearly had Lusen executed, and the admiral/admiral's charges were completely one-sided. But just like what Peter said, on the outer battlefield of Pluto Star, Lu Sen has the final say.
"You let those guys test in the afternoon, and indirectly let them reflect their own value." Looking into the dormitory, Peter smiled.
Two days later, Allen gave Berry a detailed report on the results of the first round of testing. After hearing this, Bailey nodded and said, "Sergeant, how long do you expect it to be ready for production?"
"Tomorrow, the second round of regular testing will be conducted. Personally, two more rounds of testing can complete the work of parameter collection. Next, a limited batch of weapons will be produced first, and one or two actual combat tests will be conducted. If successful, It can be put into regular production and put into use. This process will take about one to two months." Allen replied.
Bailey said happily: "This speed is already very fast. If you succeed, your achievements are enough to be promoted to a sergeant."
Allen nodded. The rank of the federal army is determined by the combination of strength and military exploits. The military ranks at each stage have the most basic strength requirements, and then they will be promoted through the accumulation of combat power. For example, non-commissioned officers like Allen, corporals need at least level 10 to be competent. And a second lieutenant like Ron needs a level 15 strength. At the first level of Major Kejies, the federal standard is level 20.
Combining strength and military exploits to determine a soldier's rank and official position. In addition to being determined by the background/background of this era of advanced warfare, it also largely eliminates the phenomenon of incompetent officers appearing through power or nepotism.
"Okay, if you need anything else, let me know, now you can go and do your work." Bailey said.
Allen took a step forward: "Colonel, I want to talk to you about the Frontier Army."
"Why, aren't those guys cooperating?" Bailey said with a frown.
"No, I was thinking. Anyway, the base has to replenish the soldiers in the combat establishment. Are you considering keeping them?" Allen said: "I have contacted them. In fact, as long as the correct communication method is used, I think they Still a group of qualified fighters."
"It's not easy, Sergeant." Bailey sighed and said, "If the Frontier Army is an organization in our Sirius system, then it is not difficult to mobilize. The difficulty is that they belong to the system of the Death Spreading Corps .If I want to keep them, I have to submit an application to Admiral/General Russen. Given our relationship with General Russen, I don't think he will sign the document."
Bailey said again: "But I'm curious, why do you have such an idea, Sergeant?"
"I know that they have made all kinds of mistakes for assigning them to the frontier army. But whoever didn't make mistakes, they
They are all fighters, they just lack the opportunity to prove themselves. Colonel, we..."
Bailey shook his head: "Things are not as simple as you think, Allen. I suggest you not to waste time on this. If you want to change the rules, at least you have to have that strength first."
Allen nodded and said, "Okay, I see."
He said goodbye and left, and after Allen left, Bailey coughed lightly and said, "You can come out now."
A side door of the office opened, and Lieutenant Peter walked in, smiling at Bailey, "Thank you, Colonel."
"I don't understand, why do you know Sergeant Allen would say that?"
"Because I was young too." Peter said with a smile: "Young people are always impulsive and reckless. When Sergeant Allen looked at us, I knew what kind of person he was."
"However, this is also an opportunity to change your destiny. Our sergeant is not simple. If he proposes, you are likely to stay here. Don't you consider it?" Bailey said.
Peter shook his head: "The world we see is different. Now in his eyes, the world is so dazzling, why add unnecessary shadows because of us."
"Well, actually, I want to say. If you submit the application, you don't need Lu Sen's approval at all. Only the financial officer of his legion will raise his hands and agree to include you in our army's establishment, which will save him a lot of trouble." An extra expense, isn't it? Perhaps this money will allow him to keep a mistress or two in Babylon."
Peter smiled: "Of course, we are small people. How could General Lu Sen see us. But... forget it."
Bailey said, "Okay, as long as you like it."
Time flies especially fast during sequence debugging and data acquisition. Even Alan himself didn't know that he quietly passed his 13th birthday on this planet. In late June, the first batch of limited-production magic guns rolled off the production line and were distributed to a hundred frontier soldiers. Three days later, they will conduct a practical test.
When the first magic gun was sent to Allen, he gave the magic gun that condensed the hard work of all the staff in the workshop, and wrote the name "Heavenly Fire". Although the sequence used by the Fire Rifle is ordinary, it is the first multi-purpose rifle that combines the characteristics of firearms and magic guns. Just to complete the conversion between the two different shooting systems, the master gun designer who was personally called by Windsor Bellow and dispatched to the Blood Eagle base lost several hairs.
The final product of the Fire Rifle is much rougher than the standard standard rifle, and the enlarged chamber has enough space for the two modes of shooting systems to coexist. In order not to waste the internal space of the rifle and its sturdy appearance, the master changed the single-shot continuous firing system of the original rifle to a double-linked one. In this way, even if it is fired with bullets, its firing frequency is far higher than that of ordinary rifles, and it is worthy of the name of fire.
As for switching to the mana system, it can launch three fire missiles in succession. If a hundred guns are fired, even an awakened person like Kejies can only temporarily avoid the sharpness. Otherwise, if all the missiles hit, don't be seriously injured even if you can't die.
After all, when the fire rifle concentrated fire and bombed, hundreds or even more fire missiles exploded in the same range. The superposition of energy and the focus of reflection during the explosion were enough to destroy the source of protection of the awakened person. As for those below level 20, according to Allen's calculations, there is almost no possibility of survival.
