Gundam Super G Universe

Chapter 146 It’s time to open a branch base!

After Red and Uzumi signed the agreement, they drove the Hermes Zero away from the Archangel. It would be another month before they would see each other again.

After the Archangel entered Orb, the system showed that the stage mission was completed.

However, Red did not go to see the new tasks and new battles first. Instead, he turned on the electronic camouflage system of the Hermes Zero, flew to an empty area of ​​the Pacific Ocean where there was not even an island, and then took off on the spot to the geosynchronous orbit to find the Aries to rendezvous.

Breaking out of space was smooth, and controlling the aircraft was even easier than landing on Earth.

After joining Aries, Red directly ordered to return to the Star Palace colony satellite. One month later would be the day to carry Orb's coffin, so he had to mobilize some troops to reassure the four major countries in the Earth Sphere.

After all, the Star Palace colony satellite has already swallowed up a lot of resources, especially the large amount of metal that Red got when Patrick came to power.

For so long, the construction of the colony satellite next to the Star Palace has been very slow. There are just a lot of materials packed in space containers (module parts of the [Balki] class. Since there is a military factory inside, no one who checks the containers will think that they are used to build warships), as if they are going to start construction only after all the necessary things are ready.

Now the four major countries in the Earth's sphere are probably wondering what Red did with this batch of metals. Building a colonial satellite does not require so much metal.

The Artemis Fortress only repaired the light wave shield and slightly renovated the interior, but did not take any major actions.

So it's time to let the Strike GM Command show its face. The group of MS pilots trained by Noin have graduated, so it's no problem to pull out a hundred of them first.

Then get five more Antietam-class cargo ships. That way you can pull enough Strike GM Commanders and bring enough shuttles to Orb to "kidnap" technicians... No, save the civilians.

Of course, such an army would certainly arouse some vigilance from the four major countries in the Earth Sphere. If things go wrong, the Atlantic Federation and PLANT would even make some sarcastic remarks. They might even find reasons to accuse the New Mischi Republic of expanding its army with ulterior motives.

But this also reassured them that the military strength of the New Misluchi Republic was still within their control. They could put aside the New Misluchi Republic, which was beyond their reach, and concentrate on dealing with each other.

On the way back to the Xinggong colony satellite, Red once again drove the Xia sisters out of his room. The two girls were still too young and had to be raised for another two years before they could be considered for food.

And without women around him, Red could concentrate on studying the tasks and new functions updated by the system.

When you open the system, you will see a bunch of reminders. The first one is naturally the reminder of completing the stage task and starting a new stage task.

"The third phase of the main quest has been completed and the rewards have been distributed; the sub-base module has been opened, and the main base conversion function has been opened; the G invasion module campaign has been refreshed.

The fourth stage mainline mission is released: Stop Genesis from attacking the Earth during the second Yakin Duwei offensive and defensive war. Mission rewards: 300 merit points, 100000 G coins. Failure: The world will directly enter the doomsday era. "

Red was very satisfied with the fourth stage mission. Even without this system mission, Red would have stopped the crazy Patrick Sala from using Genesis to bombard the earth.

Moreover, there are still more than four months left until the main mission of the fourth phase, which is enough time for me to find an opportunity to launch a new plan.

Then Red began to count the merit points he had. The reward for the third stage main mission was 200 merit points. Adding the 120 merit points that were not used in the previous Gryps II battle and the remaining ones, he now had nearly 400 merit points.

Unfortunately, the sudden mission triggered by the ZAFT raid at the Alaska base failed. You know, that sudden mission directly gave 250 merit points. Unfortunately, the mission goal was to repel ZAFT's attack and defend the Alaska base.

As soon as Red saw the mission objective, he gave up. There was no way he would risk his life for these 250 merit points. Besides, the Alaska base had to be bombed. How could the Archangel escape if he didn't bomb it?

Asking himself to defend the Alaska base is inherently in conflict with the main mission. Just like the merit point numbers given by the system, if Red really completes the mission, then he would be an idiot.

Since there was no penalty for failing an emergency mission, Red just pretended he didn't see the mission.

But it's good enough to be able to do ten combos three times now. Red plans to draw all the captains this time. Although each ship in his fleet does not need too many professionals to operate, the new intelligent AI developed by Nami will be able to handle 90% of the things regarding battleship flight and fire control.

But don't expect the officers trained by Noin now to have any experience in group fleet warfare. They still need some veteran captains to lead them.

Then there are the new modules. Red took a closer look at the sub-base module and the main base conversion function and found that the meanings of these two modules are very straightforward and need to be used in conjunction with each other.

The sub-base module is easy to understand. The main base given by the system is the Xinggong colony satellite.

A branch base is a new base that has most of the functions of the main base.

Of course, the opening of this branch base is subject to conditional restrictions.

First of all, unlike the Xinggong colony satellite, the sub-base was directly created by the system out of thin air. Red had to find the location of the sub-base himself, and it had to comply with the rules.

For example, a branch base cannot be built by simply pointing to a place and saying build a branch base there.

Instead, Red must occupy the land where he wants to build a sub-base for 72 hours before he can build a sub-base.

And at this stage, only one sub-base can be opened. If the land of a sub-base is taken away by the enemy after it is confirmed, or it is directly blown up by some super weapon, the system will not add the permission to build another sub-base.

Red looked at the construction conditions and felt that they were a bit like those in an SLG game. Considering that the person who created this system was most likely setting the rules based on a crappy mobile game, Red immediately asked the system:

"System, after this sub-base is built, I won't have to complete a mission similar to the Warcraft siege before I can use it, right? In other words, you won't arrange for any enemies to come and attack me, right?"

The system answered this question in seconds, which should be a set standard answer.

"No, the system will not give additional tests after the sub-base is built. The rules for using the sub-base are the same as the main base."

Reid felt relieved after hearing this. As long as the system did not deliberately manipulate the enemy to attack, he would not be afraid if the four major countries in the Earth Sphere were tempted just because of the expansion of his territory. At that time, the four major countries in the Earth Sphere would definitely not want to risk their lives.

Red was afraid of a war controlled by the system. It would be awkward for him to fight two of the four major countries at the same time.

Since the system didn't interfere, Red felt relieved and began to look at the details of the construction of the sub-base.

Then I saw that the details in the sub-base module clearly stated that the size of the sub-base was also limited.

If you still choose to use a colonial satellite as a sub-base, the system's functional description clearly states that as long as it is an artificial base, no matter how big it is, you must have the ability to get a starship as big as a star and occupy it for 72 hours, then the system can convert the entire starship into a sub-base.

However, if the base is to be built on the surface of a star, planet or satellite, a maximum of 7000 square kilometers of land can be selected as the sub-base area.

After seeing this detail, Red first ruled out building another colony satellite as a branch base. Colony satellites are too fragile and have no way out.

In the early stage when you are in a safe place, colonial satellites are indeed a good choice, but now you have to build branch bases and enter the battlefield directly, so how can you still use colonial satellites?

As for unrealistic things like large starships, there is no need to consider them at all. For those worlds with large starships, let alone whether they can appear in future invasion campaigns, even if they do appear, you won't be able to occupy them.

Starship, starship, a ship is equivalent to a planet, even if it is the size of a satellite, the people on it and the technology used to build the starship are nine out of ten times as good as playing with it.

Therefore, the choice of the sub-base must be on a planet, and the only choice is Earth. Other planets are nonsense. In the normal Gundam universe, who would build a base on a star?

The base area is 7000 square kilometers, so it is definitely no problem to accommodate million people. However, if so many people need to be supported by themselves in the future, it will definitely not work to rely on the system to exchange food. With a large population, even if the system exchanges food at a cheaper price, G coins will not be enough. Therefore, it is impossible to choose other planets where farming is not possible to build.

Moreover, the area to be occupied on Earth must not be limited to these 7000 square kilometers. At this time, the talent engraved in Red's soul in his previous life awakened. His intuition told him that he had to occupy at least dozens of times the size of arable land to ensure that he would not be strangled by other countries in terms of food.

Because Red vaguely remembered that in his previous life someone had roughly calculated the supply chain based on the productivity of the 20th century and gave an estimation formula that 2000 million people could be fed with about 1000 million acres of arable land.

But these 1000 million acres of arable land also need people to manage and cultivate them, and they also need supporting infrastructure and military and police. Moreover, it is impossible for Red to drive away all the real locals in the land he has occupied, so the number of people he will have to take care of in the end will definitely be more than 2000 million.

An actual land control area of ​​dozens of times the base area is necessary, and the more arable land the better, and it must be greater than 2000 million mu.

So Red prepared to return to the Star Palace colony satellite to find Letty to revise the plan that he had just temporarily named "Draw the Sword".

The attack target needs to be modified, the original target is no longer suitable. With the sub-base module, he deserves a better site. Because as long as the construction module can operate normally, Red can directly get tens of millions of loyal natives.

Even the four major countries in the Earth Sphere, which have large populations... Well, a country like PLANT, which now has a population of less than 6000 million, is not considered a country with a large population.

The three major countries in the Earth Union have at least more than a billion people, but it is impossible for them to find 10 million people across the country who can obey orders no matter what the country tells them to do.

Everyone is selfish. There are less than ten million people like the indigenous people in the entire world.

The millions of natives in Xinggong have already made Red what it is today. With 10 million natives, Red feels that he can call himself the fifth largest force in the Earth Sphere in the future, on par with the current four nations.

The situation of the sub-base module is roughly like this. The system has given Red another cheat. After that, he can occupy a base on the earth without having to worry about an unstable foundation.

As for the main base conversion function, it can only be used after the sub-bases are established.

This function is mainly aimed at the factory module. The system is not generous enough to give a factory module to Red at the branch base.

Therefore, Red has the right to choose which base to place the factory module. The base with the factory module is the main base, and the door of the original main base factory module will be completely closed.

Before Red replaced the main base, the door of the factory module of this base could not be opened. Even if Red dismantled the original main base, he could not dig out the factory module.

Of course, this change is also limited. When Red opens a sub-base for the first time, he will automatically get one change. After that, the number will increase by one after each stage mission is completed.

But the upper limit of this number is one, that is to say, if Red completes the stage task and the main base conversion function is not used during this stage task, then one replacement attempt will be wasted.

However, Red said that it was a waste this time. Now he could open a branch base. The system was obviously making it easier for him to shift the country's focus to Earth.

Because if the factory module is still on the Star Palace colony satellite, then Red must be stationed there permanently, and the Earth branch base can only be managed remotely.

All in all, Red was very satisfied with the new module and said that the system had obtained the right to be exempt from criticism before the next G-Invasion campaign.

Then Red took on the G invasion mission that was refreshed at this stage, and immediately wanted to take back the right to be exempted from criticism that he had just given to the system.

The three tasks refreshed this time are as follows:
2003 AD, Merida Island in the Western Pacific, Amalgam captures Mithril Headquarters
AC195, Luxembourg Base Attack and Defense
AC195, Resource Satellite MO-V, Gundam Snatch Battle
How should I put it, these three missions seem to be quite normal. On Merida Island in the western Pacific Ocean, the Amalgam's campaign to capture the Mithril Headquarters is a score-boosting campaign. The protagonist's machine must have Amalgam's [Behemoth]. According to the system's convention that larger machines are more valuable, three Behemoths can provide a lot of merit points for oneself.

The attack and defense of the Luxembourg base and the battle to seize the resource satellite MO-V and Gundam can be put together. The most valuable of these two battles are definitely the Abian Gundam and the two Gemini Gundams.

However, none of these three battles can bring in a large number of people. Only the Luxembourg base attack and defense battle can allow three people to enter, and the other two battles can only be entered by Red alone.

The battle to snatch the resource satellite MO-V and Gundam is fine, the scale of the operation is relatively small, one person is facing at least five B-class special machines, and it is normal for an A-machine to enter.

But the battle on Merida Island in the western Pacific, the battle of Amalgam to capture the Mithril Headquarters, and the attack and defense of the Luxembourg base were all major battles.

Amalgam captures Mithril Headquarters. Although it is a 20th century timeline, in that world, radars, satellites, and other things are all good. In other words, beyond-visual-range combat is the mainstream.

Even if Red spreads Minovsky particles on the battlefield to completely cut off communications in the area, various intercontinental missiles will not care about this.

These missiles simply could not accurately lock onto the target, but even if they were to fall by inertia, the damage caused by the firepower coverage would be enough to inflict a heavy toll on Red.

Don't think that the AC Universe Gundam's Nim Alloy combined with PS Armor and Lambda Drive protection is really not afraid of traditional missile attacks.

The technology in Red's hands now, even if it can really reduce the damage to zero, will still consume energy, either the body energy or Red's own mental strength. Everything has a limit to its endurance. He doesn't have something as useful as the solar furnace GN shield. It's impossible for him to withstand the bombing of the body for more than ten hours like Tianren.

It is not groundless that Gundam is a completely unnecessary waste in modern military science. If radar and other electronic equipment were still usable, the first Victoria Attack in the CE universe would have proved that MS was not very useful against opponents that could attack beyond visual range.

That battle ended in a disastrous defeat for ZAFT, as ZAFT had not yet spread neutron jammers over a large area of ​​the Earth. Then they found that it was completely useless to just use the neutron jammers they carried to interfere with the equipment at Victoria Base.

Soon King was hit by various supersonic missiles fired from various directions and fled in panic. Even though Victoria Base only had some manually aimed weapons that could fight back, ZAFT was still defeated.

Although ZAFT later reviewed the situation and said that the failure was due to the lack of ground support and the reliance on space airborne tactics, everyone who understands the military knows that without blocking beyond-visual-range combat, MS will only be at a disadvantage in a joint attack on Earth.

Then Red was left to fight this kind of battle alone. Although it was not impossible to fight by allowing Class A machines to enter, Red always felt that the system just wanted him to experience the excitement of a rain of supersonic missiles.

The final attack and defense of the Luxembourg base was even more outrageous. In this battle, the new OZ deployed thousands of automatic robots [Bilge] in order to destroy the OZ troops loyal to Tellez.

The defenders of Luxembourg barely numbered over a hundred, so the [Bilge] could only fight close to the enemy. Ordinary long-range firepower had little effect on its triple circular magnetic shield (the Dover gun of the Dorukis could withstand it). Unless it used its super high mobility to attack the blind spot of the triple circular magnetic shield.

You should know that the three-linked circular magnetic shield of [Billge] can be used with two machines to form a six-linked circular magnetic shield to increase the defense area and defense strength. As long as three machines work together, you can use a nine-linked circular magnetic shield with almost 360-degree defense without dead angles.

Of course, this thing is not invincible, and it can be penetrated by a beam with a high enough energy density.

However, it is not an exaggeration that [Bilge] is always ranked among the top three most difficult enemies in the entire Gundam series of mass-produced machines. It is really troublesome to fight against it when there are too many of them.

And the final boss of this battle is the runaway Evian Gundam controlled by Heero.

The Avian Gundam is a specialized melee machine with all its skill points focused on close combat. Red said that there seems to be no machine he can guarantee a win in a close combat with it.

Moreover, Hero at that time could not distinguish between friend and foe, and was a one-man army. It was meaningless to use Minovsky particles to block communications and interfere with locking.

So, a very awkward situation occurred. It was best to use a long-range machine to slowly kill the Ebian Gundam, but it was not suitable to use a long-range machine to fight the [Bilge]. I could only use three machines, and this system definitely made it more difficult for me.

But Red had no choice. Even if he protested to the system, it would not let him bring more machines in. He should think about other ways to deal with [Bilge] later, such as asking Nami to develop an electronic virus for the MD system. He let OZ experience the helplessness of facing the Agulhas Gundam in advance.
