From ship girl to machine god

This is also a shortcoming of the resistance. In the past, those guerrillas did not have such a killer weapon on the battlefield as the Demon Lizard Tank, let alone any experience in using it.

When formulating the battle plan, I did not think of using the Demon Lizard Tank to attack fortresses. Instead, I thought of using it to defend against the enemy's armored forces. Of course, there is nothing wrong with this. It is just that I don't know how to be flexible and have insufficient combat experience. .

But these were all minor problems. After Jade Bird used the shipboard quantum computer to run through the rebels' combat plan, these deficiencies were naturally made up for.

After the Demon Lizard tanks came up, the Fruit Alliance troops guarding the barricades were obviously shaken, but what was strange was that until the Demon Lizards started to attack, they did not run away because their morale collapsed, but instead launched a counterattack.

This made Qingniao somewhat surprised, so he connected his drone and scanned the battlefield to see what was going on.

However, before Jade Bird could switch the drone to infrared detection mode, several combat mechas smashed through the outer walls of the buildings on both sides of the street and rushed out, unleashing a barrage of fire on the demon lizard that seemed to be rushing forward. output.

"Arasaka's fighting mecha, they actually have something like this?" This was something Aotori didn't expect, and it was also something V didn't mention in the intelligence he collected in advance.

Chapter 152 Streets and Alleys

Although Jade Bird's ship-borne quantum computer has powerful computing power and can calculate the direction and situation of the entire battle in real time and predict the enemy's aircraft first, this is based on the premise of sufficient intelligence support.

Although V is really good at collecting intelligence, and he did find out most of the intelligence before the war started, the battlefield is not one-way and transparent after all, and the resistance army does not have much battlefield intelligence collection capabilities, let alone the real-time battlefield intelligence information summary. .

Under such circumstances, it is not impossible for Fruit United to hide a mecha unit in the city.

After all, it is a company, even if it is only second- or third-rate, it is still a company. Not to mention that Fruit United controls the entire Mexico, and they can still afford to maintain a mecha army.

As a more powerful combat machine than a combat robot, a combat mecha can provide more powerful firepower output, have better defense, and can last longer on the battlefield. The most important thing is that it can deal with local armored targets. .

Just like now, after this group of combat mechas spread out on the street, the Demon Lizard tanks originally used to push down the barricades were directly blocked here.

Although the driver was sent by military technology and was not an egg of the resistance's own recruits, he dumped the demon lizard out of the street in time and was not knocked down by the combat mech with the help of the cover of the building, but the blue bird could still see the demon lizard. The reactive armor on the front face was shattered, and it was temporarily unable to participate in the battle.

Seeing this scene, Qingniao shook his head helplessly and said to Lucy on the side: "Hack these combat mechas and get rid of this intersection. I'm still waiting for the celebration banquet in the evening!"

Lucy nodded, raised her hand and pressed it on her forehead. As her eyes lit up, the fighting mechas below suddenly stopped.

Obviously, these automated fighting machines have been hacked by Lucy.

The mercenaries of Fruit Alliance obviously also know this. They are not people like the Resistance Army who have not seen much of the world. Being able to hack these combat mechas in an instant is undoubtedly the work of top hackers. This is by no means a war like theirs. Mercenaries can handle it.

After all, their lives are not as valuable as these fighting mechas, and ICE is not as rich as these fighting mechas. Mechas can be hacked instantly, and the hacker can only think about killing them.

So these guys chose to retreat very conscientiously, and quickly disappeared on the streets before Lucy could rewrite the combat procedures of the combat mechas and let them turn against them.

The previous demonic lizards were no longer something they could deal with. If they didn't have such a batch of fighting mechas, these war mercenaries would have withdrawn long ago.

Now that the trump card at the bottom of the box is useless, they naturally won't hold on to it.

After all, mercenaries are here to make money, not to sell their lives, and no one would foolishly risk their lives just for that commission.

"Boss, they have withdrawn. What to do with these combat mechas?" Lucy felt a little pity when she saw the mercenaries of Fruit Alliance withdrawing.

She just wanted to imitate the blue bird and instantly rewrite the operating program of the prosthetic body, directly rewriting the control program of these combat mechas, but her speed was still not fast enough, and these Fruit Alliance mercenaries ran away.

After hearing Lucy's words, Qingniao glanced at her and then at the controlled combat mechas on the street. While shaking his head, he took over the control of these combat mechas from Lucy and carried out the procedures. rewrite.

"Let them fight with the rebels. This thing is quite useful for street fighting." After the blue bird finished speaking, these combat mechas started to move again.

Only now, the programs of these combat mechas have been rewritten, and they have also been connected to the resistance's identification of friend or foe, and have begun to clear out the Fruit Alliance's troops.

Although the commander of the resistance army was a little surprised when he saw this scene, he reacted quickly and ordered his troops to follow up and control the neighborhood. He also made the demon lizard move again and cooperated with his troops to move towards Next target.

Qingniao was quite satisfied when he saw this scene. He felt that the commander of this unit was not slow in his response and made no mistakes in his response.

However, Qingniao did not have the right to command the rebels, and the battle plan had already been sent to the rebel leaders before the war started. She did not feel that she had any need to intervene.

Although for her, the shipboard quantum computer has the function of battlefield command and can also calculate the battlefield process through war games. It is not impossible to command the troops, but Jade Bird really has no interest in this aspect.

"After this place is captured, the only remaining target is the Municipal Building, which is a tougher target. Alpha, you and Lucy go for a run. If their attack doesn't go well, you can help them." Blue Bird said to Alpha. He made a sound, and then waved to Rebecca: "Rebecca, come with me to see other places."

"Yes, boss!" Alpha and Lucy responded, then turned and left, using the powerful mobility of their own prosthetics to rush towards the municipal building.

Rebecca, on the other hand, followed Blue Bird, escorting her towards other places in the city where the fighting was intense.

This kind of behavior of shuttling on the battlefield is very dangerous. Not to mention the stray bullets flying in, but the snipers who hide and shoot coldly will not let go of this good opportunity to make meritorious deeds.

But this doesn't matter to Qingniao, because the entire city is under the surveillance of her drones.

Blue Bird had already released all the reconnaissance drones it carried before the war started, and they were currently overlooking the city above the city.

Although the high-altitude drone perspective cannot detect everything, with such a high-altitude view, it is no problem to grasp the general movements of the warring parties in the city.

Maybe she can't find the targets hiding in the buildings like those fighter mechas just now, but with a high-altitude perspective, she can overlook the overall situation. For Qingniao, every move of the Fruit Alliance Force is basically under her control.

It's just that she didn't share this part of the information with the resistance, but let them fight the battle on their own.

After all, the rebels have to rely on their own strength to resist the company's rule. Blue Bird's help can only be a temporary emergency cover or simply help them cheat. This is not the true strength of the rebels.

If Jade Bird keeps helping and makes the rebels feel that this is their own strength, that is obviously not a good thing and not what Jade Bird wants.

Therefore, it became the inevitable choice for Jade Bird to train the resistance forces as much as possible instead of helping them solve all their problems like a nanny.

Chapter 153 Celebration Wine

Although it seemed immature to Qingniao, the performance of the resistance did not disappoint her.

Before the sun set, the rebels basically eliminated the enemies in the city. Except for the enemies who hid in a few strong buildings for a last-ditch resistance, the city had basically fallen into the hands of the rebels.

After Jade Bird asked the Cyberpunk team to take action, these last few strongholds that resisted were quickly defeated. At nine o'clock in the evening, the gunfire in the city had stopped.

Although the martial law in the city has not been lifted yet, everyone knows that they have won this battle and have begun to celebrate.

"It was a good battle. The boys fought really well." Qingniao was also very happy about this. He raised his glass and praised the leader of the resistance army sitting in front of him.

The leader of the resistance army also held a wine glass in his hand, with a rare smile on his face, but he still said a little reservedly: "Although they have won, they should not be allowed to indulge. There should still be scattered fruits in the city. Lianhe’s mercenaries are not safe yet.”

"There are people who can handle this kind of thing. The soldiers have been fighting for a day, so let them relax at night." Jade Bird didn't care about this. He just sent a message to the Cyberpunk team and asked them to deal with the city. The mouse in the room stopped talking and turned to the leader of the resistance army: "The hard work of these few months has finally yielded a good result. This way I can also have an explanation with old Morgan, lest he say that I ran away personally." One trip and nothing was accomplished.”

"Old Morgan is extremely lucky. With your help, the resistance company can make such great progress." The leader of the resistance army clinked their wine glasses with Jade Bird and said with emotion on his face. : "Do you know? Before you appeared, although I had been leading people to resist the company, no one thought we could succeed. Everyone's persistence was only because we really couldn't survive."

"How can people survive under the rule of a company?" Qingniao shook her head. It has been almost two years since she came to the cyberpunk world, and she has completely understood the nature of this world.

As she spoke, the little robot next to her very obediently used its mechanical arm to pour wine for both her and the leader of the resistance army.

Perhaps due to the influence of alcohol, the leader of the resistance army did not talk much on weekdays, but he had a lot to say at this moment: "Yes, it is precisely because we have no way to survive under the squeeze of the company, so even if we can't see hope, we still have a lot to say." There are many people who are willing to join the guerrillas and follow me, an old man who has no confidence in myself, to fight against the company.

Many people died, so many people!Some of them are even children, and some are the fathers and mothers of children, but they all resist the company's rule without hesitation.Do you know why? "

As he said that, the leader of the resistance army looked at Qingniao, and the things in his eyes were very complicated.

But before Qingniao could answer, he said the answer to himself: "Because if we don't resist, no one will stand up to resist, and if no one resists, everyone can only wait to die under the rule of the company!"

"Using the death of some people in exchange for the survival of more people, this is the meaning of resisting the company and the price that needs to be paid." What Jade Bird said is a bit cruel, but the essence of resisting the rule of the company is Such a thing.

It's just that the part of the people who died, they voluntarily gave their lives, they voluntarily used their lives in exchange for more people to live and to live as individuals.

This voluntariness makes their contribution noble and great.

"Yes, using the death of some people in exchange for the lives of more people, that's what we do." The leader of the resistance army poured the wine from the wine glass into his mouth, and some of the wine flowed neatly along his lines. His beard was flowing down, making this old man who had always been serious look a bit depressed at the moment.

He handed the empty wine glass to the little robot, and the little robot very obediently refilled it for him.

Picking up the wine glass, the leader of the resistance army did not immediately pour wine into his mouth. Instead, he looked at Qingniao with grateful eyes and said to her: "You know, I am actually very grateful to you, not just because you made old Morgan come back again." You came out of the mountain, and even more so because you made what we did truly meaningful, and those who died did not die in vain."

What the leader of the resistance army said was heartfelt, and it was also a cruel fact.

Before Blue Bird helped them get the support of military technology, although the guerrillas, the predecessor of the resistance, were still quite famous in Mexico, what they could do was actually very limited.

Apart from raising the cost of the Fruit Alliance's rule on this land, what they did did not have any fundamental impact on their rule.

On the contrary, because of the sabotage actions of the guerrillas, Fruit Lianhe oppressed the people of this land even more cruelly in order to make up for its losses.

Although I keep telling myself that as long as I persist and let more people see hope, when more people stand up and resist, victory will eventually come and the company's rule will definitely be overthrown.

But the rebel leaders knew clearly that they alone could not see hope.

They only have as much size as the company has. There is a generation gap of at least half a century between the weapons and equipment that the company can use and the equipment of the guerrillas at that time.

Even now, the most powerful weapon in the resistance, the Lizard Tank, is already obsolete for the company and can only be sold to backward war-torn areas such as Latin America or Africa for waste.

It is conceivable that if you want to truly overthrow the company's rule, there are huge obstacles that need to be overcome.

Based solely on the original guerrillas themselves, and without the influence of other external factors, the resistance leader had little hope of seeing the overthrow of corporate rule in his lifetime.

So much so that he was already numb and desperate at that time, and he just persisted with a kind of inertia.

However, just when he was desperate to give up, the blue bird appeared.

She not only allowed old Morgan to stand up again, but also gave these confused and hopeless people a glimmer of light, allowing them to find their way in the darkness.

And now, with her help, the guerrillas have upgraded into a resistance army. They have really succeeded in conquering a city through their own efforts!

This is the beginning of hope, and will be the beginning of their great cause to overthrow corporate rule.

"Don't worry, the good times are yet to come!" Qingniao raised his wine glass again and touched the wine glass in the hands of the leader of the resistance army, his voice was clear and loud.

Chapter 154 Management Issues after the War

Although capturing the city symbolizes victory, it does not mean the end of the matter.

In contrast, war is never the end, but only the beginning.

The rebels who have seized control of the city not only have to deal with the counterattack of the Fruit Alliance, but also face the intricacies of city management.

For the leadership of the resistance army, they really had no experience in managing a city. Everyone looked like they didn't know what to do and had no psychological preparation.

Fortunately, the city had just been conquered and everything was still under military control. They still had time to discuss how to come up with Chou Yinmao.

Although they are rushing to get on the shelves, they can still explore bit by bit. As long as they are not driven out of the city by the Fruit Alliance people, they will have enough time to explore how to manage a city. .

Of course, the premise is that the blue bird doesn't help.

"V once held the position of senior manager of the Counterintelligence Department in Arasaka before. In terms of management experience, he should have more experience than anyone in the resistance. David also attended a school run by Arasaka before, so he doesn't know much about it. If there are not enough, we can let them take charge of the general management direction and overall division of labor, and leave specific tasks to others." Jade Bird suggested to the leader of the resistance: "At the same time, select a group of people who are smart and good at learning, Letting them learn while doing it can be considered as cultivating talents.”

The leader of the resistance army clearly understood that the resistance army did not have many talents in this field, so he followed the blue bird's instructions and issued orders.

After appointing V as the temporary mayor of the city to take charge of the overall situation, the leader of the resistance army asked Qingniao expectantly: "Is there any more?"

"I don't have anyone left. Unless you want me to ask for people from Military Technology, I can do that, and I can indeed ask for people, but I think you should know the consequences." Qingniao made an indifferent gesture, Then he continued: "We need to weaken the control of military technology on the resistance as much as possible. City management must not let them put their hands in! Not only that, even our current situation where all arms rely on military technology assistance must be improve.

I saw a factory in the city that was built by Fruit Alliance to produce guns. I will renovate it later. You send the most trustworthy people to take over the factory. I will teach them how to produce weapons. This is the future. The weapons of the rebels came from. "

"I will send people there, but these people in the resistance army are good at fighting and managing cities and factories. I'm afraid they don't have the ability." The leader of the resistance army is still worried about whether these people under him are competent. He said to Qingniao with some worry: "Most of the people in the guerrillas in the past had no education, let alone technology. Let them be responsible for this. I'm really afraid that they will mess it up! You really have no one else to use. ?"

"I'm not a fairy either!" Qingniao showed a wry smile, but she still tried her best to think of a solution: "The city is now under our control, and most of the original workers in those factories are with you. For the same oppressed people, you may be able to send people to do their ideological work and persuade them to help you.
