The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1535. Grand Duke Liming (12) [Army Chapter, Navy Chapter] (Drunk too much today, everyone will read it tomorrow.)

The Fourth Legion is the most powerful force in the Dawn Territory. Although the number is only 30,000, this force can fight against any force.

Even the extremely powerful Kamino clone army of the Galactic Republic, under the almost unlimited logistical supplies and equipment supply of the Republic, had several battles with the Fourth Legion, all of which ended in failure.

The current Fourth Legion is known as the "Black Legion" in the army of the Galactic Republic, which is also derived from the standard combat uniform of the Fourth Legion - the N-7 combat uniform. In addition to its excellent protection and action assistance capabilities, this kind of combat uniform has the biggest feature of being equipped with individual shields!

This thing is a luxury that even the Galactic Republic can't imagine!

This kind of individual shield can actually resist not many attacks, and it must be cooled after being hit by several blaster rifles in a row. But in actual combat, the combat effectiveness displayed by the army with individual shields and without individual shields is very different!

Soldiers with individual shields, even if they do not react immediately after being attacked by a surprise attack, can hide in the bunker after resisting the first wave of attacks, and then counterattack after the shield is recooled and cycled. Soldiers without individual shields, even if they are not fatally injured during the attack, will greatly affect their combat effectiveness, and this effect is continuous.

Moreover, every soldier of the Fourth Legion has been continuously instilled and trained in combat skills since birth, and their physical fitness has also been continuously enhanced under the action of the body strengthening medicine provided by the Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group.

If the Kamino clone soldiers of the Galactic Republic are constantly replicating on the basis of a perfect sample, the Fourth Legion is constantly strengthening on the basis of a not-so-perfect sample.

And the most terrifying thing is that every soldier of the Fourth Legion has joined the rebirth plan!

The so-called Rebirth Project is a project established by combining the genetic technology of "Resident Evil", the cloning technology and consciousness transfer technology of "EVE", and the essence transfer technique, one of the most advanced technologies in Sith alchemy.

Through this program, all participating soldiers create a backup for themselves. This backup includes a body in the best condition, the consciousness backed up before going into battle, and a link formed by an essence transfer technique.

If the soldier dies during the battle, then the link of the essence transfer technique will pull his soul back, absorb the backup consciousness, and resurrect him in a new body.

The main reason for this process is that the soul of ordinary people is not strong enough to carry all their own consciousness, and if it is Darth Malthael himself, his essence transfer technique skipped the middle step.

In this way, all soldiers who have joined the rebirth plan are not afraid of death on the battlefield. The most important thing is that they may survive countless battles, thus making themselves stronger through continuous accumulation .

In contrast to the Galactic Republic, there may be a clone trooper who can survive 99 battles, but once he dies in the 100th battle, then everything is for naught. As for the soldiers of the Fourth Army, they can have countless opportunities to try to participate in the 100th battle.

Accumulated, the capability gap between the Fourth Legion and the clone troopers will only grow wider.

And also joined the rebirth plan, as well as many fighter pilots in the Dawn Territory. It's just that unlike the Fourth Army, where all members must participate in the rebirth plan, whether fighter pilots participate in the rebirth plan is voluntary. At present, about 20,000 pilots have joined the rebirth plan. After all, for most ordinary people, the rebirth plan is still unacceptable.

All pilots who refuse to join the rebirth plan will forget the content of this conversation under the action of a special device, so that the plan will not be leaked.

But in fact, the rebirth plan was more or less seen by others. For example, other pilots clearly saw that this person was shot down, but he came back in a few days with good arms and legs, and he still had vague memories of the details of the battle at that time, so it was hard not to make people suspicious.

However, doubts are doubts, and the existence of the rebirth plan is still classified as top secret.

For the Army of the Dawn Territory, the future direction of development is the widespread use of individual power armor. The individual power armor that is close to being installed at present includes CMC-300 power armor, rhino power armor and vulture power armor.

Among them, the CMC-300 power armor comes from the technology of the "StarCraft" Tyrannian Empire. It is designed and manufactured by Tyrannian Heavy Industries. At present, the prototype has been finalized, and it can be delivered for mass production only after passing the final test.

It's just that at present, the CMC-300 power armor is still too expensive for the productivity and production technology of the dawn collar, so it can only be equipped on a small scale. The original plan was to give priority to providing this kind of power armor to the Fourth Army, but those super soldier kings of the Fourth Army didn't like this kind of power armor at all. play.

Because the soldiers of the fourth legion who have undergone physical strengthening, their flexibility and explosive power no longer need this kind of power armor bonus.

Therefore, the CMC-300 power armor is ultimately the same as its original positioning, ready to be provided to ordinary soldiers on the front line. At present, the first batch of experimental models has begun to be provided to the army of felons established in the prison planet Sojorun-the Beast Legion. After using their sinful lives to conduct actual combat tests, mass production and delivery will begin.

The Rhino power armor is one of the two prototype power armor made by Dr. Octopus Otto Gunther Ostaves. It is a heavy power armor with firepower comparable to that of a heavy tank. Once this power armor is designed and delivered, it will replace the battle wolf mech.

The vulture power armor is a kind of flying armor. When Dr. Octopus proposed and built a prototype machine and delivered it to the Dawn Army Command for review, it was once rejected because ordinary people couldn't control such a complicated flying mecha. But in the end, it was discovered that the soldiers of the Fourth Legion and the soldiers of the Salari Special Service Force could handle this kind of power armor, and they also liked this kind of power armor, so they kept it as elite-level equipment.

Limingling's army has two main ideas for building an army.

The first is to carry out global projection with a small number of troops, relying on the orbital airborne of the Kesoff-class battlecruiser and the transportation of the D-77 Pelican transport plane to release a small number of elite troops. Including the Injoli Avenger Type 101, CMC-300 Power Armor, Rhino Mecha and more, to cause maximum damage with minimum amount.

The second is the penetration and assault of large-scale armored units on the frontal battlefield. Relying on a large number of Scorpion tanks and M-650 mastodon personnel carriers, they cooperate with other armored units to carry out a comprehensive mechanized army assault, tearing up the enemy's front in a short time .

These are all combat plans based on the needs of land warfare in this interstellar era.

In the interstellar era, due to the existence of space battleships, the land battlefield highlights globalization and elitism, because the carrying capacity of warships is limited. This also affects the large-scale use of armored forces-as we all know, armored forces also rely on logistics, so limited logistics also prevent armored forces from sustaining long-term protracted battles.

Therefore, what the Liming Army needs is a frontal armored force assault and orbital airborne, to try to resolve the battle in a short time, to prevent the battle from being dragged into a protracted war.

...

And the navy of the dawn collar, with the help of the mysterious and all-encompassing database of the mothership Glory, is an existence that blooms with incomparable brilliance.

Starting from the very first Cobalt Alloy-class frigates, Vengeance-class destroyers, and Apocalypse-class light cruisers, the Dawn Territory has developed a fleet of kilometer-class capital ships with the Higra-class battlecruisers as the main force in just a few years. And soon the Cole-class battlecruiser and the Sowa-class aircraft carrier were built.

And Severance Tann also accidentally found the Blade Fleet, and the more than 170 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers also played an important role in the war.

The Dawn Leader Fleet, with the Cole-class battlecruiser and the Sova-class aircraft carrier as the main force, has repeatedly damaged the Galactic Republic's fleet in wars. In many battles, the battle loss ratio of the two fleets was at least 1:3, and sometimes it could even reach as much as 1:10!

With the end of the Battle of the Eliadu galaxy, Dawn Territory's former main battleships were severely damaged, and the Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers also suffered heavy losses. Therefore, they also started a new round of naval reforms.

Unlike the previous situation where the warships of the Traders Emergency Alliance in "Original Sins of a Solar Empire" were the main force, the new round of naval main warships are dominated by the warships of the Emma Empire in "EVE".

These warships are all researched and built by the Salarians. Thanks to the super-fast work efficiency of the Salarians, although the warships of the Amarr Empire are very different from the existing technology, the Minister of the Research Department of the Dawn Territory, Saila Under the leadership of Arroyo Barlow, the chief engineer of Ruiren, he quickly overcome numerous technical difficulties and successfully produced a large number of warships.

And the Salari people also established the Salari Industrial Group to manufacture and sell these warships.

However, the production capacity of the Salary Industrial Group is limited after all. After the design and finalization of those battleships, many of them are authorized to other industrial groups in Limingling for construction.

For example, Higra Aerospace Group, Rendili Interstellar Power Company, and Solosub Company have also been authorized to produce these warships. Among them, Lundili Interstellar Power Company has excess production capacity. Their flagship product, the Victory II-class Star Destroyer, has not yet come out, and a large number of interstellar docks are still idle. As for Higra and Solosub, their own products are outdated, so they can only do OEM.

But Tyron Heavy Industries and the Fourth Group do not need these authorizations, because they have their own active products, the Behemoth-class battlecruiser and various fighters and transport aircraft; the Fourth Group also has a variety of warships in "Original Sins of a Solar Empire" Need to build.

During this period of time, during the confrontation between the Eliadu galaxy and the Galactic Republic, the Dawn Territory also quietly completed the transformation of its own fleet, and the types of warships became more diverse.

Among the thousand-meter-class capital ships of the Dawn Territory, there are heavy armored battleships Hell Angel class 1254 meters, battleships equipped with particle light spears Disaster class 1550 meters, and Doomsday battlefield class 1049 meters that can absorb and neutralize the energy of enemy ships. The Dunov class equipped with the shield long-range replenishment system is 1020 meters away, the Cole class equipped with advanced anti-aircraft gun arrays and hypermaterial electromagnetic guns is 1100 meters away, and the Behemoth class equipped with Yamato guns is 1300 meters away. The Martha-class heavy cruiser of the Cloud series of missiles is 940 meters.

These types of warships alone have formed a variety of complementarities, forming a very complete combat combination.

There are both the meat shield Hell Angel class, the Behemoth class and Cole class for mid-range artillery support, the doomsday field class and Dunov class for assistance, and the Martha class for fire coverage. Disaster level for ranged attacks. Coupled with the support of the Sowa-class aircraft carrier at 1,300 meters, such a fleet is almost impossible to fail.

After these battleships entered mass production, the configuration of the thousand-meter battleships of the Dawn Territory basically stabilized. The next main job is to gradually eliminate the Cole-class battlecruisers and Sowa-class aircraft carriers, and carry out modernization (after all, "Original Sin of a Solar Empire 2" is coming out...), and then add Rendili to the configuration Victory II-class Star Destroyer produced by Stardynamics.

In terms of small and medium-sized warships, the 344-meter-long Apocalypse-class light cruiser and the 290-meter-long Brown Bear-class heavy destroyer that have been in service for many years will also gradually retire from active service and transfer to the escort fleet or planetary defense fleet. These two types of warships did not perform well in actual combat, mainly because their opponents - the Arquitense-class light cruisers of the Galactic Republic were too good.

Next, these two warships will be replaced by the 288-meter-long Enforcer-class heavy destroyer, and there are rumors that the Salari Industrial Group is preparing to launch two other types of light warships to serve, improving the combat capabilities of light warships below 500 meters in the dawn collar . As for these two new warships, only the names have been revealed at present-the Tyrant class and the Pioneer class.

In addition, the 296-meter-long Juggernaut-class UAV carrier, the 260-meter-diameter Xingzi-class maintenance UAV carrier, the 300-meter-long Lantian-class command ship, and the 344-meter-long Ogre-class torpedo cruiser are all unique because of their uniqueness. The role of the Dawn Leader continues to be an important supplement to the fleet.

Among the frigate classes in the 100-meter length range, the 100-meter-long Guard-class light air defense destroyer and the 85-meter-long Javelin-class missile frigate will continue to serve because of their very classic design, although they have been in service for a long time. But the Guard class will be equipped with more advanced anti-aircraft guns and fire control systems, and the Javelin class will also be equipped with more powerful missiles.

The 78-meter-long cobalt alloy-class heavy frigate will be retired from active service, and the 34-meter-long Reckless/Spike Dart-class light frigate will also be retired from active service due to changes in the current requirements of the Dawn Territory.
