"That's right!" Su Ming acted as if you were right.
"If this is the case, there will be a lot of trouble!" Anderson was quite puzzled. Since the Star Alliance did not give him a general, why did he, the commander of the special forces, engage in such a big-picture thinking.
"So now Normandy is in your hands, Shepard, go find this guy and make him pay for his mistakes!" Anderson stood up and put on his service cap.
"I'll contact the Covenant to see what else I can do, at least countries should be allowed to rebuild their armaments instead of a treaty restricting dreadnoughts!" And naval cruisers, they should be replaced too!"
Anderson's words caught Su Ming's attention, and the first thing he did was to stop old Jerry from chatting with him, and he gave him a thumbs up in surprise.
After the Normandy was resupplied and left, Anderson used the equipment on another cruiser to get in touch with his old boss, Admiral Hackett of the Fifth Fleet, and introduced in detail what happened, definitely not forgetting to emphasize The colony suffered heavy losses. Although the compatriots were not counted as 15 people, they used this as an excuse to ask the parliament for funding in name of the navy.
You see, now any cat or dog can harass the Covenant, which means the Navy can’t do it, so we have to fund it, make it bigger, and use the sword of the Covenant to protect the land of the Covenant!”.
Anderson felt an inexplicable sense of relief at the thought of the nearly 90-year-old commander of the Second Fleet standing there on crutches and cursing the parliament as a traitor to the country.
"By the way, sir, I think we can't wait for the council's order. We can start with the limited armaments inside the fleet. I saw some good things from the Atlas company in Eden!"
"Send me the data and let me review it!" Hackett was actually a little moved. His Fifth Fleet At the moment is still in a hurry. The name is false, but the size of the fleet is less than three times the size of the main fleet. And it is the flagship named Admiral of the Navy, and there is also a heavy cruiser (the Fifth Fleet actually has an old dreadnought ship, but the old man thinks that ship is too old).
Soon Hackett had a shopping list, and Su Ming handed it to Anderson.
"When did they start building cruisers with Ability?" Hackett raised an eyebrow when he saw the airship project in the first column.
"Just six hours ago, the Eden Interstellar Colony accepted their proposal to revitalize the industry, saying that they would complete the construction of the shipyard within 60 days!" Su Ming said. Use heavy industry to create a brand new Eden planet!" Anderson smiled wryly; if someone else said it, he would definitely take it as a joke, but seeing Su Ming's confident smile, he really believed it.
"So, this comes first, this ion cannon, how does it work?"
"Very effective against warships, it can effectively paralyze all electronic equipment, but the range is very short, only tens of kilometers!"
"That seems a little short!" Hackett nodded. Within the scope of the earth, tens of kilometers is considered a very long distance, but in space, this distance is not enough.
"And it's a big energy eater, so when it fires, everything else on the ship has to be disabled momentarily!" Hackett said. Otherwise, the battleship's reactor won't be able to hold on!"
"Well, it seems that our only choice now is this, what is it called, the plant dragon and the Titan robot below, hehe.
"Yes, but before that, a young man named Su Ming promised me that if we choose the battleship, he will give us back half of the money!" Anderson made a sigh and wiped his head on the sweat.
"This is a difficult choice! Well, let's buy the 100,000 Spartan laser bombs they produced first! Only when the shipyard is really built according to plan, then the Fifth Fleet will consider buying warships!" Hackett finally shot clap your hands.
"Oh, no interest in Titans and Ion Cannons?"
Su Ming regretted that the Covenant Fleet, which was supposed to be full of warrior virtues, liked these big gadgets. In the end, they just purchased another batch of Spartan radios, which surprised him a bit.
"Actually, it's mainly because I can't put it down!" Anderson, sitting opposite Su Ming, smoked a cigar (provided by Su Ming) for a while, and took a sip.
In fact, it can be said that the development of the Star Alliance Fleet has gone through two stages: the first is Pathfinder, after the first contact with the war, and then after joining the Fortress God Society, the goal of the Star Alliance Fleet is sudden achievement, or just Pathfinder.
Because a few assault ships were initially purchased for research, most of the warships of the Covenant are still in the style of assault ships. The long and narrow sap-shaped hull is very beautiful, but there are also problems, because the internal space of the battleship is so compressed that it cannot accommodate a ship. Tall Titan Riders, not to mention any of the newest Astlans.
The reason for using the ion cannon is also the same, because the drive motor is driven by the zero-vector core, which is very convenient to use, but it is also very fragile once it is hit, which is equivalent to detonating a big firecracker by an antimatter bomb, so almost all warships adopt a comprehensive The defensive measure is that 427 wraps Kuku's armor on the battleship.
If an external ion cannon is installed, the armor would have to be partially removed, which is not only dangerous, but could create a different situation.
It's kind of like if Emperor Pa had a bunch of good Lance-class star destroyers, each of which could wipe out stars, but the problem is that the explosion of that cannon would cause a chain reaction.
Yes, the same goes for ion cannons, so rather than redesigning an old ship, design a new one.
In fact, many times, before you click, you don't know what you will end up with, such as the current Star of Eden.
Immediately after the attack, the residents, who were just farmers and scientists, changed: every house had guns, and every house had food.
Definitely, besides that, it brought about even bigger changes, when it was learned that a shipyard in Atlas was coming, several farmers approached Su Ming, offering to dig up their crops for free and put The land becomes a construction site.
For their kindness, Su Ming can only laugh and cry; land is everywhere in Eden, why bother with other people's work?
What made him even more dumbfounded was that the Colonial Committee called a team of engineers to dig the foundation without asking him. .
