Containment Control Starts With the Umbrella

August 12, 2024.

Twenty-four hours after capturing the brain worm.

During these 24 hours, Andre, who was at the other end of the crossing channel, sent 200,000 sets of Marine Corps equipment from UNSC to Star P according to William's request.

As for all the motorized infantry of the Third Expeditionary Army, after learning about the ugly face of the top federal officials, most of them voluntarily chose to sign a confidentiality agreement.

There are only a few occasions where the ghost agents who need to be supervised use their psychic powers to express 'friendliness' and let the federal soldiers who are unwilling to cooperate 'voluntarily' sign the agreement.

Coupled with the 200,000 sets of Marine Corps equipment, these mobile infantry finally ushered in the "shotgun replacement", and became one of Umbrella's combat forces.

Although the training level of the motorized infantry is far inferior to that of Umbrella's marines and UNSC's army, the infantry with advanced equipment should not be underestimated.

All the captured ships of the Third Expeditionary Fleet were refitted with tens of thousands of Umbrella's engineering team working overtime.

The Federation's Third Expeditionary Fleet consists of thirty-two ships of various sizes and functions.

An aircraft carrier transport ship as the flagship, with two cruisers that are heavy fireships for the Federation, six destroyers, and finally twenty-three escort transport ships.

In the past two months, due to the chaos led by Yuri, which shocked the entire human race, Umbrella also recovered hundreds of scrapped ships.

The main reason why these ships are forced to be scrapped is that the repair price is too high, which is far less cost-effective than rebuilding one.

However, these ships have a lot of recyclable equipment, including AT energy shield generators of various levels.

So the engineering team used these recovered 'second-hand equipment' to install AT energy shields on the Third Expeditionary Force to resist the plasma attacks of the Arach Zerg and the shelling from the Human Federation.

In addition, the engineering team has also carried out certain fire control upgrades on various ships, and installed many 'second-hand' large-caliber Gauss cannons, beam particle cannons and plasma cannons, and Gauss close-in defense guns with pleasant gun sounds are essential few.

The interior of the ship has also been remodeled, and special slide rails for Hell Paratroopers and Astartes have been installed to allow orbital assaults in the following wars.

The cost of these modifications and maintenance was not enough for William's "pocket money" for a month, but he obtained an entire fleet far exceeding the firepower of the Federation.

William, who is an absolute businessman, only feels that this transaction is very cool.

Afterwards, William left 3,000 Astartes of the Extreme Legion, 20,000 motorized infantry originally from the Federation, and 6,000 Umbrella's marines, and other various ground crews and staff to stay on the front line of Star P. base.

The rest of the combat troops boarded to the third expeditionary fleet, and then the entire fleet rose to the low-earth orbit of star P, preparing to sail at warp speed to the solar system.

yes...

The Human Federation in the movie has a lot of high-tech weapons and equipment, but their technological line in terms of individual equipment is "a bit crooked", but individual nuclear bombs can also make up for many deficiencies.

The Federation has a high level of medical technology. As long as the residual limb can be recovered, it can be connected, and various prosthetic bodies can be installed if the residual limb is lost.

As long as the brain is not dead, or the important organs suffer irreversible injuries, they can be rescued in time.

Moreover, the speed of the warp engine of the Federation battleship does not seem to be slower than that of the jump engine, and it may be much faster.

Not to mention that in the anime version of "Starship Troopers: Invasion", Carmen's battleship also has a wormhole engine, which can achieve the effect of "instantly" reaching the destination.

So now Halsey and Rebecca are still staying on the ground of Star P, researching and cracking how the warp drive works.

Although Rebecca is good at biology and chemistry, her knowledge in all aspects is far superior to that of Umbrella's researchers, and she can also provide some key suggestions for Halsey.

Besides, even if the two of them can't decipher it, the federation will still be able to obtain the complete blueprint after being banned by William, so the two of them are now 'brainstorming'.

…

14:20 Atlantic o'clock.

The edge of the low-Earth orbit, 2,000 kilometers away from the surface of Star P, already completely belongs to Umbrella's Third Expeditionary Fleet, and they are adjusting the direction together and waiting for the next surprise attack.

And there are hundreds of Zerg plasma cannon groups below the fleet, emitting a faint blue light, and some fascinating.

The rising speed of these plasma regiments was slow, but they were still able to hit the Third Expeditionary Fleet at a distance of two thousand kilometers.

But the upgraded ship also exudes an intoxicating emerald green light, and its AT energy shield easily resists the attacks of these plasma groups.

Inside the bridge of the aircraft carrier.

William, who was wearing the uniform of Commander Umbrella, was standing in front of the porthole of the bridge with his hands behind his back, looking at Star P at his feet.

Serena was also wearing a military civilian uniform with a prominent figure, with her hands on her lower abdomen, standing quietly behind William.

Suddenly, a blue light flashed in her eyes, and she reported to William Hui: "Boss, all the battleships are ready."

"Very good." William nodded lightly, then turned his back to Carmen who was sitting in the captain's seat, and raised his voice to order:

"Captain Ibanez, prepare to notify the entire fleet to enter the warp speed, and take us back to the solar system."

"Yes." Carmen, who had changed into the uniform of Lieutenant Umbrella, responded respectfully to William, and then ordered to the entire crew:

"Check everything is normal."

"The warp drive is fine."

"All gas valves have been closed."

"Captain, we are ready."

Listening to the report of the crew, Carmen's face gradually became serious, and she looked at the starry sky outside the porthole and said to everyone:

"Very well, tell the captains of all battleships to listen to my countdown.

Fives,

Four,

three,

two,

one. "

As soon as Carmen's words fell, the scene outside the porthole became distorted, and the aircraft carrier and all the warships of the expeditionary force had entered a state of warp speed.

Seeing this, Carmen reported to William Hui: "Boss (Boss), it is estimated that in six hours, the entire expeditionary force will arrive near the orbit above Geneva."

"Okay." William responded lightly, and continued to watch the scenery outside through the porthole.

It is different from the jump engine that creates a jump channel that is independent of the real universe.

The warp speed engine creates an artificial "bubble" to wrap the entire ship in the real universe, compressing the space in front to achieve a sailing speed several orders of magnitude beyond the speed of light.

In fact, the ship does not "super-light speed", but uses compressed space to cleverly avoid "time dilation", and the relativity problem that objects can only approach the speed of light infinitely, but cannot exceed the speed of light.
