Chapter 3409

The characteristic of the Sith is that he would rather die than surrender, so ling did not really intend to persuade the other party to surrender. However, this is a standard procedure. No matter whether the other party will surrender or not, he should at least shout first.

Of course, there was no difference between the result and the expectation, and the group of Sith on the opposite side launched the attack without hesitation.

One of the first to come up was a Sith soldier who seemed to be taller, but the other side's equipment showed that the guy was a technician, not a marine. Before, during the intermission of the battle, the pilgrim leader and the eight companions who had contact with the Sith had done a simple science popularization for us, so we knew very well that the equipment of the Sith people in front of us belonged to the warship soldiers.

The so-called warship soldiers are the fighters who serve on the warship, but this sequence is amazing and does not include the Marine Corps. That is to say, the Marines on the Sith warships are not warship soldiers, while the real warship soldiers are basically technical soldiers except officers. They are not soldiers for direct contact warfare from any angle. Therefore, they have not received any intensive training in personal combat ability, and at most they have only completed basic training. In addition, the power armor of warships and Marines is very different.

The first thing we need to make sure is that the power armor of warships is not worse than that of Marines. On the contrary, their power armor is actually better than that of Marines. The main reason for this is money.

That's right. The reason why the power armor of warships is better is because of the consideration of funds.

Compared with the Marine Corps which directly participated in the battle and was destined to have large casualties, the casualty rate of warship soldiers has not been particularly high. Although the loss rate of warships in each space war is very large, in fact, the casualty rate of warships is not high. After all, it is the space age, and all kinds of protective measures are very advanced. Therefore, unless they are directly hit and killed by the enemy's artillery fire in the battle, few people will die of the disintegration of warships.

This determines that the warship soldiers will be quickly rescued by their own special rescue ship after the warship is sunk. It is rare for a ship to sink and the whole ship personnel are buried with them. Of course, there is an exception to the case of being hit by a power core, in which there will be no survivors. But in most cases, the number of survivors is actually large. After a ship is sunk, more than 80% of the warship soldiers on the warship survive. Even if the enemy fails to rescue the personnel floating out of the warship in time, the enemy will also collect the prisoners of war, so the casualty rate will not be too high.

However, unlike warships, the fighting of Marines is a frontal conflict. The battle between warships and soldiers is over as long as the other party's warships are overturned. However, the marine corps must directly kill or at least make the other party seriously injured and lose combat effectiveness. Therefore, the casualty ratio of Marine Corps is always the highest among all kinds of clan fleets.

Because of the high casualty rate of Marine Corps, the damage rate of marine power armor is very high, and it can not be recovered in most cases. This situation determines that the Marine Corps power armor consumption speed is very fast, if the Marine Corps equipment price is too high, then the military expenditure pressure will be very big. On the contrary, because the power armor of warship soldiers rarely needs maintenance and replacement after one equipment, it will not generate too much financial pressure, and the military is willing to pay more for it.

In addition to the problem of the speed of equipment obsolescence and renewal, there is also the value of personnel.

It's like an army on earth. Warship soldiers are technical arms. They have a long training time, high cost and high treatment. They are similar to pilots on the earth. Marine Corps training time is very short, not much money, low pay, similar to the earth's ordinary Army soldiers.

Based on the above, it is easy to draw a conclusion. The training cost of warship soldiers is very high, and it is a huge loss for the army to die, so it needs better protection. On the contrary, the training cost of the Marine Corps is much lower than that of the Marine Corps, and it is also very fast to supplement. After death, the pension does not need too much, so there is no need to pay special attention to it.

Based on this theory, the power armor of warships is obviously better than that of Marine Corps. Of course, this so-called good does not mean that the combat effectiveness of power armor of warships is higher than that of Marine Corps. This so-called good performance is actually reflected in other aspects.

First of all, the warship is stronger in terms of life support. In addition to the basic sealing system, the power armor of warships has a very strong life support system. When the warship's power armor is damaged, the power armor can still ensure that the wearer will not die in a short time in space. In contrast, Marine Corps power armor is no longer good, as long as it is punctured, it will immediately lose the life support ability in space environment.

The second is automation. Marine power armor, like their guns, is a combat tool, so it does not need any intelligence, as long as it can be easily operated. But the warships are not. Because the capabilities of warship soldiers mainly focus on technology, even if they wear power armor, they can not have the fighting ability of Marine Corps. Therefore, combat auxiliary programs and automatic return procedures will be pre installed on the power armor of warships. To put it simply, in case of a battle, the program can correct the user's action errors, conduct self-defense fighting, and give various escape suggestions. And once the user is unable to maintain his mind due to injury or any other reason, the power armor will automatically enter the escape mode.Yes, escape mode. The power armor of warship soldiers will not take them to fight, because only on their own warships can they give full play to their combat effectiveness. However, the warship soldiers without warships are a group of weak chickens, so it is the best choice to leave the battlefield quickly and not to increase the burden on the front-line people.

Based on this theory, all warships are not equipped with forced combat. For warships, evacuating from the battlefield after their own warships lose their combat effectiveness is not escape. On the contrary, they can maximize their combat effectiveness by saving their lives and returning to the rear to enter new warships.

It can be seen from these settings that the power armor of warships is not prepared for combat at all. Even though the guy in front of him was wearing power armor, his combat effectiveness was one third of that of a marine. After all, it doesn't have a few weapons on its power armor, but it has good defense. However, if the meat shield that can be carried is not exported at all, what is the use of higher defense?

Looking at the warship soldier who roared up, Ling calmly raised his left hand and held the other party's neck. It didn't feel like Ling was reaching out to attack. Instead, it was like the other party actively put his neck into Ling's raised palm.

After pinching the guy's neck, Ling didn't feel soft. His thumb pushed up slightly, and his head immediately turned to the abnormal direction. Then Ling let go of his hand and stepped back. The corpse of that guy hit the ground with a thump of stone, and there was no movement.

The other warship soldiers nearby were stunned for a moment, and then someone reacted and took out the main weapon hanging by the jet backpack behind.

After all, if a warship sinks in space, it is difficult for people without their own power to escape. Not to mention the consequences of floating in the universe, it is extremely dangerous if it is accidentally floated in front of your own artillery, or accidentally drifted into the tail nozzle of other warships. Of course, there is also the possibility of being hit by artillery fire on the opposite side. Although the enemy does not usually use artillery fire to hit those abandoned warships, the other side will not take the initiative to avoid these people, so it is possible to be accidentally rubbed. And even if the firepower between warships is wiped away at close range, the power armor on their bodies will definitely be destroyed, so it is necessary to have power.

But that's the end of the Sith Empire's technology. The thrusters on their warship power armor are special devices that rely on liquid oxygen and current accelerators. The liquid oxygen from the pack can be used to accelerate the oxygen release from the cylinder.

In fact, this kind of jetting method is similar to the thruster backpack on the spacesuit that humans just entered the universe at the beginning of the 20th century. However, the propulsion backpack at that time relied on the pressure in the high-pressure gas cylinder to spray automatically, and did not rely on electricity for secondary acceleration. Therefore, it consumed very fast and could not support the flight for too long. However, this kind of jet backpack of the Sith Empire is much more advanced and has been used for a long time, and the oxygen in the cylinder is not completely used for jet propellant. The oxygen in the cylinder is also used to provide breathing to the warships in the powered armor. Unlike the air filled oxygen cylinders used by diving clubs, the power armor of the Sith warships used pure oxygen.

When people breathe, what they consume is actually only oxygen in the air. Other gases will not be consumed, but more carbon dioxide will be contained. Therefore, if the normal proportion of air is filled, most of the space in the cylinder will be occupied by useless gas. After all, the oxygen content in the air is less than 21%, and the rest is the gas that human does not need 。 But people can't directly breathe pure oxygen, otherwise it will be oxygen poisoning. So the way the device works is to recycle the gas that the user exhales, pumping out the excess carbon dioxide, and sending it to the nozzle, which is used as a propellant. In this process, the system will automatically extract pure oxygen from the oxygen bottle and add it to the circulating gas, so that the oxygen content in the gas from the user's respiratory tract is always maintained at a basically stable standard.

The biggest advantage of this method of circulating gas is that the oxygen cylinder with the same volume can hold nearly four times more oxygen, and the excess oxygen can also be used as propellant, which can make the warships and soldiers fly directly to the nearby rescue ships or any nearby ships on their own side. In any case, self rescue is promising.

Of course. The jet system is quite large because it carries oxygen cylinders. Those power armors are carrying this thing on their backs, almost catching up with the backpack behind our power armor. But it's not just thrusters behind our power armor. The thing behind our power armor is not only a plasma thruster, but also a weapon backpack, which has a versatile folding weapon module and a small backup energy device. Its function is much more complicated than this. So it's about the size of their backpacks. As a result, the backpacks of these guys are as big as the thrusters.

The weapon that these guys hang on the side of their weapons backpacks is a pretty fancy device. The equipment on the side of the backpack is not a rifle, but a shotgun. Yes, it's a shotgun.

What are the characteristics of shotguns?It has the advantages of short range, wide strike area and great power in medium and short range.

These features don't seem to work, at least for people in space. But, in fact, this is the best weapon for warships. Why? The reason is simple. Warship soldiers have not received good combat training, so the hit rate of rifles is generally much lower than that of Marines. Then what shall I do? It's simple. Don't you miss your aim? Use the shotgun. It's not easy to miss a shot, is it? Moreover, the power of the shotgun is well known. If you encounter an attack at ultra close range, holding a shotgun is definitely more deterrent than holding a rifle, because the enemy knows that you will die if you hit him, but if he hits you, he may not be able to kill you.

Of course, the slow firing speed and short attack distance of shotguns are also a problem. But none of this is a problem.

Warship soldiers do not need to charge. They need to use guns to indicate that the warship is finished or is resisting the invasion of the enemy Marines inside the warship. If it's a shipwreck, they just have to run or defend. In this case, it doesn't make much sense to want to shoot at a speed and range. As long as it can deter the enemy and hinder the pursuit of the other party, the range and firing speed of the shotgun are not problems in this case. As for the fact that the enemy invades its own warships, it is much simpler. In addition to special areas such as the flight deck, most parts of the warship are narrow passages. The firing distance is not too far, so the range advantage is meaningless. As for the problem of slow firing speed In fact, the advantage of firepower coverage is enough to make up for the problem of firing speed.

In short, it is a consensus in the universe that warships and soldiers are equipped with shotgun weapons. Of course, the creators' technological strength is relatively high, so they don't use ordinary shotguns, but multi-functional electromagnetic rifles. In addition to the main ammunition shooting port, this weapon also has a hanging launching port, which can be regarded as a large caliber shotgun, and can also launch a variety of large caliber ammunition such as special grenades. As for pilgrims, it's even more exaggerated. All of them will basically have a surface kill weapon similar to a shotgun. After all, the pilgrims are famous for their protection of their own people.

After these guys took out their weapons, they aimed at ling here, but Ling didn't move, but coldly looked at these people. "It seems that you are not going to live. There's no way. "
