"Well, let me see, electromagnetic rail gun, Z-1 robot, ion shield generator..."
After reading the "shopping list" recorded during the discussion between the two, Yang Tianyi raised his head and looked at Lieutenant General Panica with eager eyes, and asked expectantly: "In what form do you plan to purchase our group's products?" ? And what are the requirements in terms of quantity and quality?”
"Alas." The lieutenant general sighed and replied jokingly: "If I had known that your group's products were so diverse, I would have asked Admiral Shestakov to leave some pollen for me."
But of course this is just her alternative humor. Malinkaline pollen is powerful and not easily addictive. It is a rare strategic resource that is urgently needed by the human federation. Ten tons of pollen may seem like a lot, but spreading it over the entire People's League army is just a drop in the bucket, and it can no longer be used for foreign trade.
The Qunxing Group, which owns natural moon crystal sugar resources, only needs pollen for its commercial value at this time. According to the survey of the Little Luna Mining Station, the natural moon crystal sugar located in the center of the asteroid has been lost for thousands of years. The deposition of microbial corpses makes its energy replenishing effect not even weaker than Malinkaline pollen.
The annual export of pollen from the Marin planet of the Earth Alliance does not exceed a thousand tons at most, but the current daily output of the Little Luna Mining Station can reach a thousand tons, which is not an order of magnitude at all.
"Regarding the electromagnetic railgun, our group currently has the ability to independently produce a complete set of turret facilities. If you are willing to provide us with data requirements on the turret seat ring and the like, we can sell the finished turret directly to the federation to help you and The federal military factory saves a lot of time in opening new production lines."
Yang Tianyi's neither humble nor overbearing attitude allowed him to win the Lieutenant General's trust again. After thinking for a few minutes with his chin in his hand, Lieutenant General Panicka nodded.
"The matter of technology exchange is not a trivial matter, but before the Grand Marshal personally approves my report on the Star Group, I have the right to place a small order with your group for experimentation on behalf of the People's Liberation Army Fleet in Fenhabenis. I wonder if you can accept it. ?”
"Of course. As long as the data requirements for the turret are clear enough, from a machine gun as small as 30 mm to a naval gun with a caliber of 800 mm, we will ensure the quality and quantity and deliver the finished product to your squadron as soon as possible."
Yang Tianyi was overjoyed to receive the lieutenant general's accurate reply, and immediately said that the Star Group would never let down the trust of the federation and would do its best to complete the lieutenant general's order.
After reaching an agreement on the details of the electromagnetic railgun deal, the two continued to start a new round of negotiations on the Z-1 robots and individual shields that the People's Federation may need to purchase in large quantities.
"Regarding the Z-1 robot, as long as you send people to investigate any settlement on the surface of Fenhabennis, you will find that many forces have actually purchased them for gang conflicts or self-defense. And each The bare metal price of the robot is 10,000 World Credits, which is equivalent to about only the federal dollar, the official currency used by the federation."
"Each unit is fifteen thousand federal dollars, and the more you buy, the greater the discount. Unless you directly form a large number of pure robot troops, you don't actually need many units to break them up and install them in the conventional army. According to my As a rule of thumb, one robot for every five infantrymen is sufficient.”
The lieutenant general who heard this waved his hand and said that she was a naval general and did not know much about land warfare. Therefore, she would not place a large order until Marshal Beauclair approved her application.
"No problem. If you just need some robots to handle chores or for personal enjoyment, with no more than 20,000 federal dollars at most, you can get a robot adjutant that can do everything except combat."
Seeing that Yang Tianyi's eyes dimmed a bit when he heard "no big orders will be placed," the lieutenant general laughed and reassured: "Large orders are only relative to the entire federation. If your group's If robots are really useful, I estimate that the spaceport beneath our feet alone will need at least several thousand robots to do chores."
"Let's let the robot matter come to an end. I'm still more interested in your group's ion shield."
As expected of a Vice Admiral, I am afraid she has already seen that the potential of the ion shield is not limited to individual shields.
Yang Tianyi, who was thinking this way, smiled slightly and took the initiative to propose the most advanced technology the group could come up with regarding ion shields - the shipboard ion shield generator.
Gu "You guessed it right. The ion shield is not only used for small targets. Large units such as battleships and buildings can also be equipped with this kind of shield that can effectively delay enemy attacks."
Yang Tianyi knew that the well-informed lieutenant general might not be tempted if he didn't use the technique of pressing the bottom of the box, so he directly threw Wang Zha out, and as expected, he aroused the opponent's strong interest.
After carefully watching the simulation demonstration in the holographic projection, Panica asked quite emotionally: "What is the highest level of ship that your group's shipborne ion shield generator can be used on?"
Considering that the ordnance giant bird being built in the Elysium world has a wingspan of more than one thousand meters and is also using an ion shield "dome" defense system, Yang Tianyi smiled confidently and gave an answer that satisfied the lieutenant general.
"Currently, the ion shield can cover all ships up to the level of destroyers or even small cruisers, as long as the length does not exceed 600 meters."
Regarding the Vice Admiral's question about why the carrier cannot be larger, his answer is that as the size of the ship increases, the energy required to achieve the same level of protection will also increase exponentially. When the carrier reaches the cruiser level, the energy consumed by the ion shield is no less than that of the deflection shield. When the defense capabilities of the two are about the same, the gain outweighs the gain.
However, even if it can only be applied to small ships, the Vice Admiral, as a naval general, is very satisfied - the ion shield that will not cause a pure energy conflict with the deflection shield and cause an explosion means that the Federation's small ships The ship will gain two layers of shields.
The outer ion shield is used to delay and slow down electromagnetic projectiles and missiles of enemy ships and other kinetic weapons, while the inner deflection shield deflects all weakened attacks.
A battleship with two shields is simply too happy! Moreover, the battlefield survival rate of small battleships with two layers of shields can also be greatly improved. Even large rail guns that can sink frigates and severely damage destroyers with one shot may require two shots to do the same damage.
On an interstellar battlefield where every second counts and countless accidents occur every second, it is often one or two shots that determine the outcome of the entire battle.
The ion shield seems to improve the protective capabilities of soldiers and small warships, but in fact it improves the victory rate of the human federal army in the upcoming war!
With this thought, Lieutenant General Panicka handed Yang Tianyi his right hand representing friendship and thanked him in a personal name: "The emergence of your group is for the Federation, even if it is not a timely help, it is the icing on the cake. Yours The product may save the precious lives of countless young men and women in the Federation, and they and I will remember this kindness!"
"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, you have made a strong statement. I am also looking forward to deeper cooperation with your country."
After shaking hands with Lieutenant General Panicka, Yang Tianyi only saw the other party smile slightly and said: "Mr. Yang is my friend and a distinguished guest of the Human Federation, so you can just call me Anya. If you are on Fenhabennis in the future, If you need anything, I and the Tauren assault fleet stationed here will also provide you with some help within our capabilities."
After hearing this meaningful name, Yang Tianyi, who almost choked on his tea, looked at the calm Lieutenant General Anya in surprise, and asked with a hint of probing: "Who is it?"
"Tauren, this name is taken from the ancient myths and legends of the Earth Alliance. It symbolizes strength and killing. I think it is a good fleet name. What do you think of this?"
"No, no, I wish us a happy cooperation!"
Putting the teacup back on the table, Yang Tianyi took the initiative to lean forward and shake hands with Anya. He felt that there would definitely be a lot of friction between himself and the Minotaur assault fleet in the future.
