After arranging the final work of the asteroid capture plan and the space elevator, Jiang Chen returned to the apocalypse. He had just been cozy with Sun Jiao for a while when he was pulled into the laboratory by Lin Ling.
"What's the matter? You're in such a hurry." Seeing Lin Ling happily pulling him to the laboratory, Jiang Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Don't worry about it, just follow me!"
After closing the door, Lin Ling let go of Jiang Chen's hand, took two steps forward and walked to a machine, and then opened the dustproof cloth covering it with a whoosh.
"Qiang Qiang~ Guess what this is?" With her small chest puffed out, Lin Ling proudly showed Jiang Chen the machine that was about the height of a person.
Jiang Chen stared blankly at the strange-looking machine, unable to react for a while.
Jiang Chen carefully searched his memory for the cylindrical main body, but could not find a matching shape in his memory.
"What is this stuff?"
"An enhanced version of the magnetic restraint device. Compared with the first machine, this enhanced version of the magnetic restraint device will be able to store up to 1g of antimatter." Lin Ling patted the iron bump and said proudly.
"In other words... if this thing explodes, it will be equivalent to three strategic nuclear bombs?" Jiang Chen glanced at the machine and his brows twitched.
"The explosion yield is equivalent to three nuclear bombs," Lin Ling corrected Jiang Chen's statement, and then said, "In terms of power, it can be compared to ten nuclear bombs exploding at the same time!"
Wori, this damn thing can blow up an asteroid to pieces!
As if seeing through Jiang Chen's thoughts, Lin Ling coughed, tapped her finger on the machine shell and added, "Of course, there is only 0.01mg of antimatter in it now. Collecting antimatter in the atmospheric environment is not generally difficult. If you Is there a way to help me build a laboratory in outer space..."
"You know, that's impossible." Jiang Chen sighed.
The remnants of the war have covered the earth's outer space, almost forming a planetary ring composed of space junk. It is not that he has not considered launching satellites in the end of the world, but due to environmental factors, this is almost impossible. possible tasks.
Lin Ling also sighed and shrugged.
"Then we can only take our time."
"By the way, how is the progress of the research on the crossing of living creatures?" Although antimatter is a prerequisite for carrying living creatures through time, Jiang Chen is more concerned about this issue than antimatter.
"It's fine if you're just transmitting microorganisms or bugs. But when you're transmitting small animals like hamsters, there's a slight problem with the device. It's very troublesome to explain. Maybe it's a lack of energy? Maybe it's the 'door' caliber. Too narrow?" Lin Ling muttered to herself, lost in thought.
Seeing that Lin Ling had nothing else to do with him, Jiang Chen left the laboratory.
…
After lunch, the snow outside the house became a little lighter.
Putting on his cold-proof clothes and boots, Jiang Chen left the villa alone and went to the community center. When the sentries patrolling along the way saw him, they all spontaneously saluted him. From their pupils, Jiang Chen could clearly feel the reverence from their hearts.
Stepping into the command post, Han Junhua was standing in front of the command table looking at the holographic map and thinking about something.
After noticing Jiang Chen coming in, she took back the map and looked towards Jiang Chen.
"You came?"
Walking next to Han Junhua, Jiang Chen asked casually.
"What's new?"
The laser pointer in his hand pointed at the location of Wu City on the holographic map, and Han Junhua said in a deep voice.
"When our pilots were conducting reconnaissance on the Northern Joint Command Area, they discovered that their armed forces were mobilized abnormally. The leading force is expected to reach 2,000 people, and the follow-up force may be more than 10,000 people, equipped with a large amount of pre-war equipment. Although It’s hard to understand, but it seems they plan to take Wu City in the winter.”
Although even the Aurora-20 was at an extreme disadvantage when facing pre-war air defense weapons, it could still conduct reconnaissance at a certain safe distance. If it were just pre-war rifles and individual armor, it would be fine. The T-series power armor that was further developed after the war may not be weaker than the pre-war P-series, but tanks like the Prowler are a bit of a headache.
In order to destroy a Crimson Chamber of Commerce Prowler, Zhao Chenwu was forced to use the Tianjie-32 cruise missile for anti-ship purposes. According to Aurora-20's description, the Northern United Region has a large number of Prowlers.
If the armored units of both sides encounter each other, it will be a hard battle.
Looking at the red dots and arrows on the map, Jiang Chen fell into deep thought.
"Jun Hua, you used to serve as the commander of the PAC mechanized brigade. Do you have any good suggestions for dealing with Prowler tanks?"
Han Junhua pinched his chin and said expressionlessly.
"The Prowler tank mainly relies on the Meissner effect superconducting armor, which can completely neutralize metal warheads and is called the nemesis of the electromagnetic gun. But even with insulated warheads, it is difficult to penetrate the 140 mm A-shaped steel armor. EMP, laser, microwave, etc. are basically ineffective against tanks produced after 2200, so they can be ignored."
"In other words... there are no weaknesses at all?" Jiang Chen said with a bitter smile.
Han Junhua shook his head.
"There is no weapon without weaknesses, even PAC's strongest main battle tank. First of all, endurance is its weakness. Maintaining Meissner armor requires a large amount of electricity, and the 112-ton dead weight itself is a big problem, even if it has With a dual-core fusion core as a power source, it is difficult for this kind of tank to sustain long-term combat. Tactically, try to avoid frontal contact with it, and strategically use detours to cut off supplies... In addition, continuous attacks with incendiary bombs also have a certain effect on this kind of tank."
"How is our troop deployment in Wu City?" Jiang Chen then asked.
"Wang Zhaowu has led the Second Division to station in Hongcheng, and sent an advance team of about 2,000 people into Wu City to contact the local survivor forces. As a former PAC industrial town, there are many robot factories left in Wu City, and the local survivors Researchers have modified many civilian robots into combat robots, and their combat effectiveness is considerable. If possible, we can use Yajing to recruit local survivors to fight for us," Han Junhua said.
"It would be best if we could win them over." Jiang Chen nodded. Problems that can be solved with "money" are never problems. NAC, which relies on the resources of the entire world, does not have to worry about living materials.
Suddenly noticing the distance between Hanzhong and Wu City, Jiang Chen frowned slightly and thought in his heart.
"But this distance of 750 kilometers...how on earth do they plan to get here."
I heard that the alien species in the north are different from those in the south. Creatures such as Deathclaws usually fall into hibernation in the winter. However, most alien species in the north do not have a hibernation period. If they wanted to go from Hanzhong to Wushi, the aliens along the way would be enough for them to drink.
Shaking his head, Jiang Chen put this issue aside for the time being. However, just when he was about to discuss the deployment of troops with Han Junhua, there was a knock on the door. After receiving permission, Wang Qing opened the door and walked in to report.
"Hangzhou Merchants Association Kong Qian asks for an audience." (.)
