Him and their stars

As for why the alliance can get more discounts in the name of the New Yumen area, there is no need to think too much about this matter. If you really put it out there, it will only make most people feel embarrassed.

In short, the three garrison divisions reorganized according to the standard Marine Corps divisions have indeed been completed. The composition of the troops is of course mainly composed of sand people, and more than 80% of the soldiers are these local aborigines. The small number of Lumina people who joined the army are mainly responsible for some engineering and technical work.

There is no way. The Lumina people who first supported the construction of the New Shenzhou totaled only 100,000 people. After more than a year of immigration and settlement work, the number of Lumina people who have been confirmed to stay in the New Shenzhou has just exceeded 300,000, including a considerable number of elderly, weak, women and children. This is actually understandable. The Lumina people are a strong, tough and focused race, but they have the attribute of "attaching to the land" after all. Being able to move out such a small number is already a manifestation of the extremely high efficiency of the Pioneer Party and the Lumina Administration.

The most capable and adventurous Lumina people have been conscripted by the 38th Division, and sending the rest to fill in the gaps is a bit inhumane.

In contrast, the local people of the Sand People in the Garrison Division also occupy more than 60% of the officer positions, as if they don't care about the Sand People rebelling at all.

You know, the Alliance and the Empire also retain a large number of land forces composed of alien races. There, even if the fill-in babies in the entire division are almost all alien races, 80% to 90% of the officers are still sitting in the positions. In addition, the headquarters police (supervision) guard (military) forces, which are composed of pure humans or at least sub-humans, have always controlled the most powerful weapons and the most fierce firepower in the entire division.

Well, even if the garrison divisions of Xinyumen really rebel, it will be a matter of the future. At least these Sand People are all in high spirits now. In addition, their true combat effectiveness still needs to be tested in actual combat, but at least there is no shortage of equipment and troops.

The title of this batch of new troops is "New World Garrison" No. 1 to No. 3. The military order is under the charge of the New World War Zone under Admiral Carter, and it is the main force of the defense of New Yumen.

As for the old-style militia divisions, there are actually more than ten of them, and everyone is equipped with the Laborer 3 exoskeleton. This seemingly simple exoskeleton equipment is good in quality, cheap, and large in quantity. Although the structure is simple, it is also versatile. It can hang weapon racks and insert decks. Of course, since it is designed for moving bricks, plastering, and screwing screws, it is still very durable and can crawl forward even if hiding in the sand.

Yu Lian is very satisfied. He feels that it took only one year to complete these combat readiness tasks. Admiral Carter, the good guy, is really a waste of talent to be a logistics director. He is qualified to be the chairman of the National Defense Committee.

... Well, from this point of view, there are still many candidates who can be the chairman of the National Defense Committee. In comparison, Mr. Nishita is still very ordinary, right?

Of course, Admiral Carter should also have capable assistants around him. It shouldn't be Dr. Xie Yiwei and Director Carl Johnson of the Tulong Factory. The two of them are 150 years old in total. They are pure technicians and have never heard of any means of using troops to fight.

Sure enough, Busca said again: "Also, under the leadership of Mr. Summers, everyone finally repaired six ancient combat robots in the ruins. Unfortunately, with the resources we currently have, we can only repair six."

Yu Lian listened to the other party's detailed account again and confirmed that those so-called ancient combat robots were of course those that served as statues in the "Gray Ruins". This is a pleasant surprise.

"Those robots can indeed be repaired, but the technical level is still quite high. Xin Yumen should not have such conditions. Speaking of which, I remember that when the ruins were just excavated, the Alliance proposed that they were willing to cooperate with us to carry out restoration and reverse research and development." Yu Lian said.

According to Yu Lian's meaning, he would definitely not agree that all the Enlightened Ruins can be regarded as unique non-renewable resources. If there is a choice, even if the ruins are buried in the sand and wait for the wisdom of future generations, they should not be taken out and shared with foreign countries casually.

However, after all, the Community is not the one who has the final say. Although General Yu is the first discoverer of the so-called "Gray Ruins", he cannot decide the future of the ruins.

In fact, the Earth has almost agreed. However, when the negotiations between the two sides entered the final stage, President Nishita directly stopped it.

This seems to be because the adults of the opposite party of the Prosperity Party think that it is better to share happiness with others than to enjoy it alone... No, since they are all selling their country, why not sell more to compare prices? Uh, that's not right. Anyway, since they all want to conduct research on the legacy of the Enlightened, then the Alliance is not the only choice, right? When it comes to the research on ancient civilizations, the Empire is above the Alliance. Even if we only talk about the technology of robots, we can invite the experts of the Iron Army.

Although the Palladium people don't have much level of mysticism, their robot technology is the best in the entire galaxy, right? And they are also mutually beneficial partners with the Community.

What's the matter? President Keith Nishita has just taken office, and you want to hand over such an important relic to the Alliance. Have you been inspired by a powerful evil spirit?

After all, when the ruins were discovered, the war had not yet broken out. The Empire and the Community were still friendly allies. Moreover, the two sides had a lot of records in fighting the looters together. This alliance relationship was inexplicably indestructible with a little blood and fire.

Just like a great and sacred alliance in Yu Lian's previous life.

Faced with such accusations, President Ni, who hoped to establish a multi-party coalition government, finally chose to follow the good advice and stopped the cooperation, and then approved the request of Xinyumen to build a museum and engage in tourism.

The above is the current situation of the "Gray Ruins".

Yu Lian knew that although the museum was built, the people of the Engineers' Guild were still conducting preliminary analysis and research.

In general, although the Engineers' Guild is an anarchist civil organization, it is much more credible than the official research institutions of the Empire and the Alliance. Yu Lian let them do it.

However, after not paying attention to this for a while, did it directly launch a big satellite for himself?

Yu Lian couldn't help but want to find the magical Xiao Hui to ask. If the robots in the ruins really revived, there is no reason why the nano ghost girl with all-powerful hands and eyes... no, eyes across the entire galaxy would not know about it.

Unfortunately, his spiritual sense scanned the surroundings and there was no trace of the silicon-based fairy within a hundred miles.

Yu Lian was sure that Xiao Hui (her true body) had boarded the ship with him. However, if she really wanted to hide, even a god-level boss above the ninth ring would find it difficult to sense her.

"Only relying on the Engineers' Guild and the Tulong Factory?" Yu Lian looked directly at Busca and felt that this was not realistic.

"There are also people from the Iron Army Union." Busca scratched his head: "During the Judgment Campaign two years ago, they set up an office in Xinyumen."

"I know that." Yu Lian nodded: "In addition, there are Circe, Minlan and Torun."

In the Judgment War to eliminate the plunderers, these second-tier powers with excellent relations with the community participated in the war with the Earth Fleet. Of course, they also wanted to get a share of the development of the Dawn Nebula, so it was a reasonable choice to set up an office in Xinyumen.

At that time, no one expected that this would suddenly explode.

"However, after the war broke out, more than half of the staff of these offices withdrew, and even the promised investment was gone. Only the Iron Army Consortium was directly upgraded to a consular agency, and 1,000 people were sent here. They said that they were technicians who came to build the carbon crystal refinery according to the contract, but they all had special skills. Once the "clothes" were activated, seven or eight well-trained Sand People soldiers could not get close to them."

The Palladium people always called the iron tower-like mecha they drove "clothes".

Yu Lian was slightly startled, and then a warm current flashed in his heart.

After the war began, intimidated by the military power of the empire, the attitudes of most friendly countries of the community were quite ambiguous. Even the Kingdom of Cherk, which had suffered enough from the empire a few years ago, chose to be cautious. Even the Alliance, which is regarded as a savior by the big guys on Earth, has only provided support to the Community at the level of "normal business dealings".

In comparison, the toughest ones are the Pallaians of the Iron Army Union. These civilized races that look like giant caterpillars have no bones in the physiological sense, and rely entirely on hardened shells to maintain their body balance, but their "bones" are much harder than most upright races.

Since the war began, they have exported twelve repair ships to the Community. Half of them are on Earth, and the other half have all been sent to the front line of the far-shore war zone.

We all know that this special warship is equivalent to a nanny on the battlefield of the fleet. The Iron Army Union's robot repair ship is the best nanny of this generation of civilization, and there is no one else.

In the face of the Empire's questioning, the Iron Army Union was able to argue that our repair ships did not have any military weapons, so of course they were civilian ships. Does exporting civilian ships also violate the principle of neutrality in wartime?

Although the Galactic Empire was overbearing and unreasonable, it was speechless for a while.

In addition, the Iron Army Consortium also took the initiative to build some military facilities within the community, such as space stations without turrets and automatic turrets without gun barrels. It also helped the earthlings expand the shipyard and even took on several large cargo ship repair jobs.

Of course, turrets and fortresses without weapons are not military equipment, and repairing cargo ships is even more of a civilian business. The Palladium people made such an explanation, indicating that the Iron Army Consortium still did not break the principle of neutrality.

In addition, there are a large number of observation groups and "volunteers" in the community. In the solar system alone, the number of Palladium people has exceeded 5,000. To be honest, if they really have a special war puppet coat, these 5,000 people are enough to deal with the full-strength armored grenadier division of the entire empire.

In addition to taking the initiative to participate in the war, the Palladium people did everything. So, having such a group of volunteers to help the New Yumen restore some ancient robots is already a very peaceful move.

Then again, the interaction between the Engineers' Guild and the Palladium people also spans hundreds of years. The image of them fiddling with ancient robots together is particularly harmonious.

Yu Lian also admitted that if he really wanted to introduce foreign partners, the Iron Army Consortium was indeed the first choice. If the war had not broken out, he might have really said so (installed) and served (arranged) Xin Yumen to do so.

Unexpectedly, because of his busy military affairs, he temporarily ignored the war preparations of Xin Yumen, but his friends still did it. This is tacit understanding, and this is also subjective initiative.

Summers led his companions from the Brotherhood of Intelligence and the friendly forces of the Palladium people. After a difficult march, they overcame many difficulties and paid a lot of prices. Among them, nearly 100 technical workers died, including two engineers from the Tulong Factory. The Guild Hall's intelligence and Palladium scientists also sacrificed one each.

Their efforts were of course effective.

The Guild Hall and the Palladium people successfully advanced the robot technology tree they mastered by several major steps, and it is said that they also lit up several scientific and technological achievements. The Tulong Factory also obtained more technical reserves and even cultivated and honed a considerable number of outstanding technicians.

The joint research team of the three parties determined that these ancient creations at least have extremely fierce firepower, miraculous endurance and automatic charging system, and wound recovery ability comparable to biological tissue.

Of course, most of the combat functions of the robot cannot be activated, and the endurance level of its energy pack is only a theoretical estimate. So far, the New Yumen can only activate the robot's shield, long-range energy cannon and form switching function. So, Summers tentatively added short-range firepower and an external cockpit to the robot, which actually succeeded.

Of course, so far, the capabilities of these robots have remained on the serious technological side, and they have not shown any mysterious mystical abilities. But even so, the performance it has shown is enough to surprise everyone.

Just relying on those powerful long-range energy cannons, even if they are buried under the sand as artillery, they can still effectively kill enemy ships on orbit.

"These six repaired Enlightened Robots are managed by an independent armored regiment. In addition to the carefully selected drivers, all maintenance personnel are also elite. In addition to the people in the guild hall, there are also many volunteers from the Iron Army. Well, of course, they are all mercenaries. In addition to maintenance and research, their main job is to provide close cover."

Isn't this equivalent to the coordinated infantry around the tank? And they are coordinated infantry wearing large special mechas, as if each of them is a small Iron Man.

Come on, the Worms of Palladium are really stubborn and really righteous! Yu Lian was moved beyond words, but he was also worried about their motherland.

The homeland of the Iron Army Union is not too big, and it controls several pass-level waterway entrances. Although the country is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the strategic depth is not great. With the maneuverability of the Galactic Empire, it is really possible to point out the homeland of the Palladium people.

This, what trump card did the Palladium people have? Or are they sure that the Empire has already done its best to deal with the Community and is unable to attack them?

Yu Lian felt that he should perhaps discuss this with General Griffith in private. When he was in Sarna, he and the Pallaian general had a good relationship.

However, after General Griffith returned to his country, he was promoted to general last year. He is one of the leaders of the Iron Army Union.

As a theater commander, he contacted foreign leaders privately, which always felt a bit like military law... In short, it was a taboo operation.
