"Master Forge Albert, what do you think?"
After thinking for a moment with his iconic poker face, Ben Albert gently tapped the fuselage with the gear ax in his hand. After making a crisp collision sound, he said in a rough voice:
"It is practical and has a relatively simple structure. It can not only provide fire support, but also monitor the front line and undertake some sentinel tasks. The key point is that it is easy to maintain and repair."
Soshyan nodded and looked at Bangura.
"That's it. Considering that the current legion does not need so many vehicles, I only hope that in the next ten years after Forging World, we can provide 20 Storm Falcons, 50 Storm Claws, 10 Thunder Eagles, and 5 Thunder Eagles every year. Is it possible to do it with a Storm Bird?"
Bangura did little to think.
"Okay, Corps Commander, in fact you proposed a relatively low production target."
"Ha, the number of recruits is still rising steadily. There is no need to pile up so much equipment in the warehouse waiting for people. It is better to let the forging world put its strength where it is needed more."
Soshyan's words are not without purpose. At this time, Ulanhuda's main production lines are still dominated by various large machinery and equipment used by the auxiliary army. And due to its own development, the production of mining equipment and energy equipment also accounts for a large part. Proportion, but Soshyan can't let people shut up and not eat to provide themselves with war supplies, so it can be understood that after all, the forging world is more prosperous, and in the future there will be more powerful productivity to provide a steady stream of weapons, equipment and warships. .
In addition, Ulanhuda also maintains trade routes to the Maelstrom area. The merchant group established by Sorge even established liaison offices and offices in the Forge World. Soshyan also met the representatives of the Sorge faction here. , the other party said that many of the equipment and weapons produced by Ulan Huda are very popular in the Maelstrom, especially spiritual equipment. They are expensive and profitable, and can bring hundreds of billions of tons of various products to Ulan Huda every year. Resources such as quasi-rare metal crystals and gems also allow Sorge's merchant family to quickly absorb nutrients and grow, for which Soshiyang is still very pleased.
At Bangura's invitation, Soshyan inspected a circle of Ulan Huda's Skitarii. The troops and equipment were generally no different from other forge worlds, except that some of the troops lost during the previous forge world coup were restored. , and also expanded it. The previous scale of Ulanhuda's skitarii could only be said to be barely able to protect itself.
However, during Bangura's administration, Ulan Huda's Skitarii began to emphasize offensiveness and mobility. Self-protection was no longer the only purpose, so they created a large number of Steel Walkers, Hades Cavalry, and Ironborn Killers. This type of skitarii tends to be more offensive.
It can be seen that Bangura still has a lot of ideas. If Ulanhuda needs to re-show its presence and power, it will undoubtedly need to send a lot of expedition fleets, and these fleets will need a large number of skitarii suitable for expeditions. Power projection.
Of course, this is Ulanhuda's own business, and Soshyan did not make any comments.
However, in the process, he saw something very interesting. It was said to be a new work of a certain sage, and he insisted on showing it to Soshiyang.
Judging from the appearance, it seems to be a sniper model derived from the Skitarii Hunters. I just don’t know what the sage’s mentality was, and he installed a calf over 2 meters long on the poor sniper.
That's right, it's a calf, not a whole leg. In fact, everything above the knee is normal, but below the knee it's very
When this thing came out, all the Astartes were amused. Even Ben, the unsmiling forger master, couldn't stand it. He turned his head and called it "the little chopsticks of the Mechanic God" - a unique kind of Chegoris. tableware.
Soshiyang also asked the sage what his idea was for designing this way?
The other party's answer was very simple. It can cross some complex or dangerous terrain, such as highly radioactive ground, corrosive liquids, or hot ground steam clouds, etc., and -
Stand tall, see far and hit accurately.
At that time, Soshyan didn't hold back and laughed obscenely. This logic seemed correct but also very strange, so he asked the other party, didn't the Mechanicus have a single-person flapping device? Why not just let it fly?
The other party replied that someone has already designed it like this and he does not have a patent.
Arash immediately pointed out that since it was designed as a sniper unit, have you ever thought that the higher you stand, the clearer the enemy can see?
Mark even asked semi-jokingly, is this thing considered an air defense unit?
As a result, someone said that this may have to be an air unit, and it may be shot down by the Hydra on its side if not careful.
Soshiyang did not say any more hurtful words. Instead, he comforted the somewhat lost sage, praised the other person's spirit of daring to innovate and think, and then gave him a gift.
It was one of a bunch of gifts given by the nobles during his expedition to the Maelstrom. It was said to come from Ancient Terra ten thousand years ago. It was a treasure of a warlord in the era before the emperor unified it. It looked like a small It’s a metal box, but of course when you bite its shell gently with your teeth, it can emit a temperatureless flame. It is said that this kind of flame can provide unexpected inspiration when it burns the tongue when people are thinking——
But in fact, after so many owners, it does not seem to show any ability and is just collected as an antique.
Soshyan gave this antique as a gift to the sage. The sage was very happy and said that he would continue to work hard to create more valuable creations.
Before ending the trip, he took one last look at the production of auxiliary army equipment. Ulanhuda was also very efficient in producing these mortal equipment. It had produced 300 million sets of various infantry light weapons and light protective gear alone. It can fully meet Soshyan's requirements for arming the local guards of the Nessen planet, and there is still enough left to arm the local troops of the Brakato system. In addition, there are tens of millions of team support weapons, rocket launchers, and sentries. Mechas, bison armored vehicles, centaur transport vehicles, Taurus off-road vehicles and other infantry heavy weapons and light vehicles. As for armored vehicles, there are 300,000 Chimeras of various types alone, and more than 20 artillery units. Thousands of basilisks, gryphon heavy mortars, Medusa siege tanks and manticore rocket launchers (I really can’t stand the space age and still play drag artillery, please forgive me for making a joke.), and dozens more. Thousands of special vehicles such as Hydra anti-aircraft vehicles, as well as more than half a million Valkyrie transport aircraft and more than two million gravity parachutes!
The output of this aerial equipment shocked Soshyan at the time. It can only be said that Ulanhuda is indeed a professional user of aviation.
However, there is one thing Soshyan did not see——
tank.
In other words, the Leman Russ tank.
