Traveling through the infinite wasteland

Ye pulled the trigger again the moment after the second armor-piercing bullet was loaded into the chamber. The timing was just at the same time that the warning sound sounded. The tank shook again, and the second armor-piercing shell roared out of the muzzle and flew towards the target.

Under Ye's careful aim, the first armor-piercing bullet hit the center of the shield, which was the chest of the mecha. The powerful armor-piercing bullet directly tore through the defense of the first two shields and left a hole on the third shield. Judging from the hole in the middle of the terrifying crater, the most powerful warhead still partially penetrated the shield, leaving a bullet hole about ten millimeters in diameter.

However, there was a slight deviation in the accuracy of the second armor-piercing projectile. According to the surveillance sight with extremely high magnification, it was aimed at the upper middle part of the shield at night, where the head monitor of the mecha was placed. However, the huge recoil produced by the first shot affected this shot, causing the bullet to hit the upper right part of the shield. The huge impact directly knocked the shield away from the target drone. Only the third shield had two sides. The deflection of the cannonball by the shield did not allow the hit to fly away.

"The power is earth-shattering." After the night test, Chen and Dis came to the shield that was knocked down. Chen held a camera in his hand, which was responsible for transmitting the image of the shield to Ye Na.

Ye Ye was stunned by the appearance of the shield. The first shield suffered the most damage. The first shell opened a big hole in the middle of the federal standard tower shield. Only a dozen centimeters of armor on the edge of the front shield were connected. Then, The second cannonball that came in sent the upper part of the shield flying, and the entire shield was broken into two pieces by the two shots. Although the other two shields were not as exaggerated as the first shield, they were still seriously damaged.

What a terrifying power, that was the only thought in the minds of those present.

After testing the sniper cannon, Ye began to adjust the tank's anti-recoil damper with Chen's help based on his own shooting records. Huge machines require lifting armor plates to make adjustments. Fortunately, there is a special adjustment workshop at the shooting range. Otherwise, Ye would have to drive the tank back to Tris base for adjustment.

The huge workshop was extremely hot and stuffy. When I first opened the door, the air mixed with the smell of engine oil, rust and mold almost suffocated Ye Ye next to the door. Ever since the Federation Army took over this workshop from the New London Star Force. This workshop has never been used again. The reason why the close-range shooting weapons used by mechas can be adjusted in their own hangars, while the long-range live ammunition weapons produced by the federation, such as sniper rifles, are carefully adjusted by technicians in the factory, and have smaller calibers. There is no need to change the damper settings during use. It only needs to be controlled by the software to perfectly offset the recoil force that is not strong and continuous. The adjusted data are also stored in the mecha. As long as any federal mecha uses these long-range live ammunition weapons, it can load the relevant data from their computer and control it well. and use of weapons.

But the cannon installed on the Land King is different. As a tank made by the Empire, the Federation still has very little grasp of its various performance data, especially its main weapon, the sniper cannon. As a giant cannon that the Federation has never had before, the Federation has almost no information on weapons of this caliber, while the Empire has almost no information. It also appears that no fine adjustments have been made to the gun. This left Ye and Chen without any other information to assist in adjusting the cannon's accuracy, and they could only rely on the most primitive method to make fine adjustments, which was live ammunition test firing. Then make adjustments based on the test results.

The silver chariot slowly entered the workshop, driven by Old Dis. The old man really couldn't resist the temptation of this King of Land, and begged Yecai for a chance to touch his favorite tank joystick again. Even though the military personnel classified this tank as a mecha, in the eyes of the old man, it was a tank, an enlarged version of the King of Land he had been driving before.

According to the night habit, once you identify your own things. He would never let others touch it casually, but this King of Land had only been in Ye's hands for a few hours. Ye, who had no feelings for mechas made by the empire, would not show a strong possessiveness towards this tank. If it were the Human Torch, Old Dis wouldn't even be allowed in the control room at night. The Human Torch was Alicia's gift to Ye. When they were on board the Logilas, even the maintenance personnel did not dare to touch the Human Torch without Ye's permission, except for normal inspection and maintenance. It is simply impossible to dismantle the Human Torch's armor to see the internal structure, or to enter the control room to see the internal layout.

"A perfect work." Old Dis kept murmuring these five words as he ran out of the control room to turn on the power supply in the workshop. Obviously, this imperial product was still very attractive to the old man.

Under Chen's control, the huge robotic arm deftly removed part of the armor behind the Land King's cannon, revealing the components of the recoil damper inside. Lao Dis was the first to jump on the chariot and walked to the damper.

"When the damper made the barrel return quickly, it caused the barrel to deflect to the right. Haha, easy to handle." Old Dis seemed to be talking to himself.

Ye Ye wanted to go up and take a look at the damper of this tank. The reason why it had to absorb the recoil of such a huge caliber artillery was that this damper must be something big that Ye Ye had never seen before.

As a result, two people squatted next to the exposed damper of the tank. One was admiring it from an expert's perspective, and the other was admiring it from an outsider's perspective.

Chen, who was sitting in the control position of the robotic arm, saw that the two people were silent around the damper. He had nothing to do and he shouted dissatisfied: "I said, Old Dis, adjust it quickly, or give me the machine." Make room for the arm, and I'll adjust it myself. Don't get in front of my robotic arm. This tank will be used tomorrow, and time is very tight."

Chen Ke didn't dare to complain about Ye. Although Ye was kind to the maintenance staff, Ye's official rank was there after all. For the maintenance personnel with the highest military rank of colonel, Ye is now one level higher than them, not to mention Chen who is only a second lieutenant.

"I know." Old Dis agreed while still stroking the huge structure of the damper, as if he was stroking his own children.

After a while, the old man raised his head and said to Ye: "Young man, can you trust me to adjust this tank? I promise you, I will adjust it to the most perfect condition."

Ye looked up at the old man in surprise. You must know that the pilots are personally involved in the initial adjustment of most weapons. Now it is obvious that Old Dis wants him to complete the initial adjustment of this sniper gun. But not that lazy night. Being afraid of trouble and not having a good impression of this tank actually made Ye nod. Agree to Lao Dis's request.

The old man looked up at Ye in disbelief. In fact, when Lao Dis made that request, the old man regretted it because the request was so rude.

Seeing the old man's brows twitching, Ye patted the chariot and explained calmly: "This guy killed Ron, my former comrade-in-arms."

"Ron? Captain of the Skeleton Commando, Ron?" The old man's eyes became even more surprised.

"Yeah." Ye nodded. "After I was curious about this tank at the beginning, to be honest, I didn't have a good impression of it, but now my Thunderbolt is broken, and I can't steal other pilots' mechas to use, so now I just I can only use it, haha, I have to go to the front line. I thought I could rest for a while since the Human Torch broke."

Lao Dis raised his eyes and looked at Ye, and said slowly: "Isn't this tank well designed?"

Ye shook her head.

"Then why don't you like it?" the old man said excitedly.

Ye said calmly: "Purely speaking from the design aspect, I like this tank very much. I like its firepower, the powerful power to defeat the enemy with one blow. But this tank killed a comrade I hadn't seen for half a year, and He was killed behind his back. That's something I can't let go of."

After hearing what Ye said, Lao Dis calmed down and said: "You should not direct your hatred towards the weapon. You should direct your hatred towards the Imperial pilot who killed Ron, and towards all Imperial soldiers. The weapon is Innocent people are the ones who make and use them, and they can only cause harm to you if someone uses them.”

"I know everything you said, old man." Ye said silently, "But the feeling of losing a comrade cannot be recovered in a day or two. And I am lazy. I should leave this adjustment work to you, who is experienced."

Ye patted Lao Dis on the shoulder. After climbing out of the chariot, it was time to find a place to sleep. Last night I woke up very late, and this morning I woke up too early. Now I want to find a good place to replenish my sleep.

Seeing Ye walking into the back of the workshop, Chen couldn't help but asked Old Dis suspiciously through the wireless earphones: "Dis, aren't Ye going to participate in the adjustment work?"

The old man nodded and said: "Let me complete the adjustment work of this tank. Haha, that boy is still a little bit upset about his comrades dying under this tank, but I can see it. This little guy still likes this Land King.”

When Chen heard what Old Dis called Ye, he immediately said: "Dis, do you know who that special major is? Ye Huaxia, the first ace of our federation, please don't call him a boy or a little guy." Okay? If you want to use these words, at least add his name in front of them to make them look more intimate."

"Haha." Old Dis was happy when he heard Chen's words. "Of course I know who he is. His propaganda posters have been plastered all over the federation. How could I not know. I can tell from his eyes, This guy is definitely a natural warrior, but he is too young. He actually put all his hatred for killing Ron on this tank. Alas, in this case, he will not be able to use this big guy well. "

Chen was stunned and said: "Dis, I'm afraid you don't know the relationship between Ye and Ron."

Dis was also stunned and said: "I know, didn't he serve on the Logilas, the flagship of the original Elite Thirteen Fleet, together with the captain of the Skeleton Commando?"

Chen smiled and shook his head and said: "Old Dis, Old Dis, you only know one thing but not the other. Logilas participated in the Battle of Odessa, right?"

Dis nodded slightly and added: "Well, that battle was the worst cosmic battle in which our Federation suffered a defeat."

"In that battle, the Elite Thirteen Fleet returned with only two battleships, one of which was the flagship Logilas, and of the twelve elite pilots on that battleship, only four returned. Now the captain of the Iron-Blooded Commando, Cologne, The captain of the Death Commando, Ye, An, who planned the Critical Point Battle on the staff, and Ron from our Skeleton Commando." Chen sighed, he understood the kind of relationship cultivated between comrades after a narrow escape. friendship.

"Really? Haha, then he does have a reason to be sad." The old man's voice also lowered, but he still said stubbornly, "But no matter how sad you are, you can't put your hatred on the weapon. This is against this car. To disrespect the tank is to desecrate the tank."

"Old man, let me say it again, this is not a tank, this is a mecha." Chen knew Dis's stubbornness and could only change the subject.

"Tell you, Chen, this is a tank, the greatest Land King in history. It's not the mecha you like. Don't fool me." Diss said seriously, pointing at the Land King.

When Chen Yao woke up that night, he found the book www.zhaoshuyuan.com. The sky had begun to get dark. He had slept for a full eight hours that night, and it was already six o'clock in the evening.

"Well, Chen, are you done?" Ye said with a big yawn.

Chen nodded and said, "Well, we've got it all done, ensuring the accuracy of three consecutive shots. Due to time issues, if there are more, I'm afraid it won't work."

Ye nodded and said: "Okay, okay. It's enough to ensure accuracy with three consecutive shots. I don't have the ability to target four enemies in a row. That kind of thing is not done by humans."

The silver chariot bid farewell to the Tris mecha testing ground and drove towards Tris. Tomorrow, it will join the federal forces in preparing for the early stage of the Battle of Steaming Sands, attacking the empire's defense line in Tyrad.

In the Tris base, the mecha troops have already begun to set off. These troops are attacking the imperial defense line from the flanks. Due to the long distance, these mecha troops that want to meet up with the frontline base troops on time must set off at night in order to catch up on time. It's really hard for these pilots from the north. They have just arrived in the desert for one day and have not adapted to the desert climate before they have to set off to participate in the operation again. On the other hand, all their mechas have been equipped with anti-sand nets, so they won't suffer from desert disease due to their inability to adapt to the environment full of yellow sand.
