Chapter 131 Military Equipment and Firepower Configuration
Chapter 131 Military Equipment and Firepower Configuration
Inside the wheeled command vehicle.
It offers ample space and a smooth ride.
On the side of the carriage, a huge tactical screen was lit up, displaying constantly scrolling terrain data and blue arrows representing friendly units.
Lin Mo looked at the army outside the window with excitement.
He turned to look at Long Zhan and asked curiously:
"General Long, what weapons and equipment did we deploy this time, and what was their firepower configuration?"
Long Zhan was standing on the screen sand table, pondering something. Hearing this, he didn't even look up, but gestured to the advisor next to him, asking him to answer.
Seeing this, the staff officer picked up his tablet, sat down next to Lin Mo, smiled, and swiped on the screen. The screen instantly switched to a detailed list of troop deployments.
"Sir, we have mobilized a total of 20,000 people this time."
"All soldiers were equipped with the latest model of individual exoskeleton and 191 modular assault rifles, each of which was equipped with a grenade launcher."
He paused, then pointed to another item on the list.
"Two thousand quadrupedal robotic dogs were also deployed, responsible for some of the ammunition transport, battlefield reconnaissance, and forward guard duties."
Lin Mo leaned closer and looked at the data on it:
"I see many soldiers carrying drones. How many are there?"
"Ten thousand units. One unit for every two people, that's enough."
The staff officer's finger hovered over the heavy weapon configuration.
"Squad-level support firepower: 500 12.7mm heavy machine guns and 500 individual mortars."
Lin Mo smacked his lips.
"This firepower density feels like it could wipe that forest off the map."
"Our operational plan is to use overwhelming firepower to completely destroy the enemy before they enter effective firing range." The staff officer grinned, his finger sliding down to the armored unit.
"An armored assault group consisting of 100 main battle tanks, 50 wheeled assault vehicles, and 50 'Mengshi' 14.5mm machine gun vehicles."
"Artillery support unit: 50 120mm self-propelled mortars and howitzers."
Looking at the icon representing a tank, Lin Mo felt much more at ease.
These steel behemoths are the true kings of land warfare.
"What about air defense?" Lin Mo asked a crucial question.
"When I came here last time, there were a lot of flying things among the demons, like gargoyles and winged demons. They almost broke through our defenses."
"Moreover, according to Elder Muyu, there was a bone dragon still alive among the demons last time."
"Please rest assured about air defense, sir." The staff officer smiled slightly and drew a circle on the screen, enclosing several icons.
"We have 50 'Land Shield 3000' short-range air defense systems, 50 vehicle-mounted lasers, and 50 short-range air defense missile vehicles."
"Besides," he tapped the screen,
"50 'Swarm 2' land combat vehicles, each carrying 48 fixed-wing drones, for a total of 2400 drones."
"Whether it's reconnaissance or attack, it's all possible."
"With the drones carried by the soldiers capable of self-destructing, even mosquitoes wouldn't be able to get in with this level of air defense."
Lin Mo imagined the various attacks that the demonic flying units would have to endure as they flew over, and couldn't help but swallow hard.
With this kind of firepower, even a Bone Dragon might not be able to handle it.
"And this too." The staff officer continued to slide his finger across the screen to introduce the product.
"Missile launcher, capable of launching high-explosive bombs, thermobaric bombs, cluster bombs, bunker buster bombs, etc."
Lin Mo asked in confusion, "A bunker buster?"
The staff officer nodded.
"Right, don't demons have creatures like earth dragons that dig tunnels?"
"The bunker buster bombs we brought this time are specifically for dealing with it."
"Oh right." Lin Mo recalled the earth dragon he had encountered before.
"If this creature manages to breach our defenses from underground, it will be a real problem."
The staff officer smiled.
"These missile vehicles are only one-fifth of what we brought."
"The remaining forty vehicles are all deployed at the forward base, ready to provide long-range fire support at any time, with a coverage area sufficient to reach the City of Emerald Leaves."
Lin Mo was completely relieved and felt a great sense of security.
"Finally, there's logistics."
The list on the screen switched to the logistics support section.
"We have 200 logistics transport vehicles, loaded with enough ammunition, fuel and spare parts to support us in three high-intensity campaigns."
"Half of the ammunition is cubic nitrogen ammunition."
"There are also 125 field kitchen vehicles, 100 field ambulances, and 50 water purification vehicles."
"We also brought 100 diesel generators to charge drones and robotic dogs, etc."
The staff officer put down his tablet and pointed to the sky outside the window.
"In the air, there are 20 reconnaissance helicopters and 30 armed helicopters, that's basically it."
As for the specific names of the equipment, they are too sensitive and might offend the will of Shenhe, this cosmic overlord, so I won't write them all out. Otherwise, this book would be finished in a heartbeat, so don't worry about it too much.
Kyle and Elder Muyu, the two members of the inspection team, also set off, following behind Lin Mo and the others in vehicles.
On the one hand, it is to fulfill supervisory responsibilities and prevent Da Xia from acting recklessly.
Another aspect is to see what good things and equipment the Great Xia still has, and how well it performs in the attack on the Demon Clan, etc.
Kyle and Elder Muyu sat in an open-top military off-road vehicle, which drove along the side of the steel torrent.
At this moment, a celestial horse flew down from the sky and circled above the army.
"Lord Kyle—!!!"
Unfortunately, the noise from the army's movement was too loud, and the soundproofing inside the vehicle prevented Kyle from hearing anything.
"Lord Kyle, it seems your people are looking for you?" Elder Muyu said, pointing out the car window.
Kyle looked down and saw the Pegasus Knights frantically spinning around. His lips twitched, and he gestured for the warrior driving the car to lower the window.
Cast a Holy Light spell as a guide.
"Ugh~"
"So comfortable—"
The soldiers marching or driving around them couldn't help but groan.
Who can understand this feeling of sudden purification and cleansing of body and mind!
They were all somewhat used to it, and after groaning, they looked at each other and smiled, continuing their march and driving without feeling embarrassed at all.
During this time at the forward base, Lin Mo would frequently unleash a "Holy Light" spell while learning magic.
In order to correct Lin Mo's usage, Kyle, Lin Mo's mentor, would often remind him that the correct way to use his hands was to release the information.
To his dismay, Lin Mo still couldn't change.
This resulted in the immediate relief of minor colds and acclimatization symptoms experienced by soldiers who were exposed to the light.
Lin Mo, ever cunning, would drag Kyle to the field hospital every time he practiced magic, having the nurses bring out the patients so he could sneak in and get some benefits.
For example, having Kyle teach people about healing and purification with holy light is like using these people as experiments.
Kyle was fully aware of this but didn't point it out, letting Lin Mo and his men take advantage of the situation.
The celestial horse in the sky noticed the familiar holy light, descended, and galloped alongside the moving vehicle. It respectfully handed Kyle, who had lowered his window, a roll of parchment, and said in a hoarse voice:
"My lord, a message from His Majesty."
God knows how loudly he shouted in his search for someone.
Kyle took it, opened it, and looked down to examine it.
