The characteristic of the Sith people is that they would rather die than surrender, so Ling did not intend to really persuade the other party to surrender, but this is also a standard procedure. Regardless of whether the other party will surrender or not, at least they have to shout first.

Of course, the result was no different from what was expected, and the group of Siths on the opposite side launched an attack without hesitation.

The first one to rush up was a Sith warship soldier who looked tall, but the other party's equipment showed that this guy was a technical soldier rather than a Marine. During the battle break, the leader of the Pilgrim and the eight companions who had contact with the Siths had already given us simple science, so we were very clear that the equipment of the Siths in front of us belonged to the warship soldiers.

The so-called warship soldiers are combatants serving on warships, but this sequence is magical and does not include the Marines. In other words, the Marines on the Sith warships do not belong to warship soldiers, and real warship soldiers are basically except officers and technical soldiers. From any perspective, they are not soldiers who are used for direct contact warships, so they have not undergone any intensive training in personal combat ability, and at most they have only completed basic training. In addition, the power armor of warship soldiers is also very different from the power armor of the Marines.

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

That's right. The reason why the power armor of warships is better is due to financial considerations.

Compared with the Marine Corps who directly participate in the battle and are destined to have large casualties, the casualties ratio of warships has never been particularly high. Although the losses of warships in each space battle are large, the casualties rate on warships is actually not high. After all, it is the space age, and various protective measures are very advanced, so unless they are directly hit by enemy artillery fire in battle, few people will die from the disintegration of warships.

This determines that after the warship is sunk, the warships will be quickly rescued by their own special rescue ships. There are few cases of one ship sinking and the entire ship is buried with them. Of course, the exception is the case of being hit by the power core and exploding. In that case, there will definitely be no survivors. However, in most cases, the number of survivors is actually a large number. After a ship is sunk, more than 80% of the warships on the warships survive. Even if the warships on the warships are defeated and cannot rescue the people floating out of the warships in time, the enemy will collect prisoners of war, so there will generally not be too high casualties.

However, what is different from warship soldiers is that the battle between Marines is a head-on conflict. The showdown between warships is overturned and the warships is over, but the Marines must directly kill or at least seriously injured and lose their combat effectiveness to be considered the end of the battle. Therefore, the Marines' casualties have always been the highest among all race fleets.

Because the Marines have a high casualty ratio, the Marines' power armor not only has a very high damage rate, but is also in most cases unable to be recycled. This situation determines that the Marines' power armor consumes very fast. If the Marines' equipment price is too high, the military expenditure pressure will be very high. On the contrary, because the power armor of warships rarely needs to be maintained and replaced after one equipment, it will not cause too much financial pressure, and the military is willing to spend more money on this.

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

Just like the army on earth. Warship soldiers are technical troops, with long training time, high expenses, and very high salaries, similar to pilots on earth. The Marines' training time is very short. They don't spend much money and have low salaries, similar to ordinary army soldiers on earth.

Based on the above situation, it is easy to draw conclusions. The training price of warship soldiers is very high. Death is a huge loss for the army, so it requires better protection. On the contrary, the training cost of the Marine Corps is relatively much lower, and it is also very fast to supplement. After death, there is no need to pay too much pensions or something, so there is no need to pay special attention.

Based on this theory, the power armor of warships must be significantly better than that of the Marine Corps. Of course, this so-called good does not mean that the power armor of warships is more combat-effective than that of the Marine Corps. This so-called good is actually reflected in other aspects.

First of all, the power armor of warship soldiers is stronger in life maintenance. In addition to the basic sealing system, the power armor of warship soldiers also has a very strong life maintenance system. When the power armor of warship soldiers is damaged, this set of power armor can still ensure that the person wearing them will not die in space in a short time. In contrast, the power armor of the Marine Corps is not good. As long as it is penetrated, it will immediately lose its life support ability in the space environment.

The second is the automation system. The Marines' power armor is like their guns, which is a combat tool, so it does not require any intelligence. As long as it can be operated conveniently, it is not the case. Because the capabilities of the warship soldiers are mainly concentrated in technology, even if they wear power armor, the warship soldiers cannot have the Marines' fighting ability. Therefore, the combat auxiliary programs and automatic return programs will be pre-installed in advance on the power armor of the warship soldiers. To put it simply, if a combat program occurs, it can correct the user's action errors and engage in autonomous defensive combat combat, and various escape suggestions will be given. Moreover, once the user is unable to maintain his mind due to any reason such as injury, the power armor will automatically enter the escape mode.

Yes, it is the escape mode. The power armor of warship soldiers will not take them to fight, because warship soldiers can only maximize their combat effectiveness on their own warships. However, warship soldiers without warships are just a group of weak chickens, so evacuating the battlefield quickly and not adding burden to the people on the front line is the best choice.

Based on this theory, all warships and soldiers have no forced combat settings. For warships, evacuating the battlefield after their own warships lose their combat effectiveness is not considered a escaping. On the contrary, they can only maximize their combat effectiveness by saving their lives and returning to the rear and entering new warships.

From these settings, it can be seen that the power armor of the warships is not for combat preparation at all. Although the guy rushing up in front of him is wearing power armor, his combat power is one-third of the Marines' combat power. After all, there are not many weapons on its power armor, but it has good defense. But no matter how hard the shield can be carried, if there is no output at all, what's the use of high defense?

Looking at the battleship soldier Ling who was roaring and rushed up calmly, he raised his left hand and pinched the other party's neck. It didn't feel like Ling was reaching out to attack, but it was like the other party actively stuffing his neck into Ling's palm that was lifted up in advance.

After pinching the guy's neck, Ling was not soft-hearted, and pushed his thumb up slightly with a click. The guy's head immediately turned in an abnormal direction. Then Ling Sang took a step back, and the guy's body hit the ground with a thud like a stone, and there was no movement.

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

The power armor of warships has propellers. After all, if the warships sink in space, it is difficult for people without their own power to escape. Not to mention the consequences of floating around in the universe, if they accidentally float in front of their own artillery fire or accidentally float near the tail nozzle of other warships, it is extremely dangerous. Of course, it may also be hit by the opposite artillery fire. Although the enemy generally does not specifically use artillery fire to attack the warships who abandoned ships, the other party will not take the initiative to avoid these people. Therefore, it is possible to be accidentally rubbed. The firepower between warships, even if they are rubbed at close range, the power armor on their bodies will definitely be ruined, so it is necessary to have power.

However, the technology of the Sith Empire ended here. The thruster on their warships' power armor is a special device that relies on liquid oxygen and current accelerators to work. This device can release oxygen from the liquid oxygen cylinder in the backpack, and then accelerate and spray it with electromagnetic effects to produce an acceleration effect as a thruster.

This jet method is actually similar to the thruster backpack in the spacesuit that humans used when they first entered the universe in the early 20th century. However, the propulsion backpack at that time relied on the pressure of high-pressure gas cylinders to automatically eject, and did not rely on electricity for secondary acceleration, so it consumed very quickly. It usually cannot support flight for too long. However, this jet backpack from the Sith Empire is much more advanced and has a very long time to use, and the oxygen in the cylinder is not completely used as jet propellant. The oxygen in this cylinder is also used to provide breathing for warship soldiers in the power armor. It is different from the oxygen cylinders that fill air in the diving club. The power armor of the Sith Empire uses pure oxygen.

When people breathe, they only consume oxygen in the air. Other gases will not be consumed, and the carbon dioxide in them will become more. Therefore, if they are filled with normal proportions of air, most of the space in the gas cylinder will be occupied by useless gas. After all, the oxygen content in the air is less than 21%, and the rest are gases that humans do not need. However, people cannot breathe pure oxygen directly. Otherwise, they will be poisoned by oxygen. Therefore, the method used in this set of equipment is to continuously circulate the gas exhaled by the user, extract the excess carbon dioxide from it, and then send it to the injection port, which is preferred to be used as a jet propellant. In this process, the system will automatically extract pure oxygen from the oxygen cylinder and add it to the circulating gas. The oxygen content in the gases to the user's respiratory tract will always be maintained at a basically stable standard.

The biggest advantage of this method of circulating gas is that the oxygen cylinder of the same volume can be nearly 4 times the amount of oxygen, and the excess oxygen can also be used as propellant, which can allow warships to fly directly to nearby rescue ships or any nearby ships on their side. Anyway, there is hope for self-rescue.

Of course, this type of jet system is quite large because it carries oxygen cylinders. The power armor is carrying this thing behind it and is almost about to catch up with the backpack behind our power armor. But you have to know that the one behind our power armor is not just a thruster. In addition to the plasma thruster, the thing behind our power armor is also a weapon backpack. There are universal folding weapon modules and small backup energy devices, which have much more complex functions than this. In this way, it is just about the same size as their backpacks. As a result, these guys' backpacks are so big with just a thruster.

The weapons these guys hung on the side of the weapon backpack are also a rather strange device. The equipment installed on the side of the backpack is not a rifle, but a shotgun. Yes, it is a shotgun.

What are the characteristics of shotguns?

Short range, wide strike area, and great power at medium and short distances.

These performances seem useless, at least for people in space. However, in fact, this is the best weapon for warship soldiers. Why? The reason is very simple. Warship soldiers have not received good combat training, so when using rifles, the hit rate is generally much lower than that of Marines. What should I do? It's very simple. A shot is not accurate? Just use a shot. It's not easy to shoot a large piece, right? Moreover, the power of a shotgun is well known. If you encounter an attack at a very close range, holding a shotgun is definitely more powerful than holding a rifle, because the enemy knows that you will die if you hit, but he hits you but may not be able to kill you.

Of course, it is also a problem to shoot a shotgun slowly and have a short attack distance. 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 they are resisting the invasion of enemy Marines within the warship. If the warship is finished, they just need to run away, or they are just defensive operations. In this case, the rate of fire and range of fire are actually not very meaningful. As for the range and rate of fire of shotguns, the range and rate of fire of shotguns are not a problem. As for the situation where the enemy invades one's own warship, it is even simpler. Except for special areas such as the flight deck, most places in the warship are narrow channels. The fire exchange distance is not too far, so the range advantage is meaningless at all. As for the problem of slow fire rate... In fact, the advantage of firepower coverage is enough to make up for the problem of fire rate.

In short, it is actually a consensus in the cosmic era that equip warships with shotguns. The creators' warships are actually equipped with weapons similar to shotguns. Of course, the creators have relatively high technological strength, so they are not using ordinary shotguns, but multi-functional electromagnetic rifles. In addition to the main ammunition shooting port, this weapon also has a lower launch port, which can be regarded as a super-large caliber shotgun, and can also fire special grenades and other large-caliber ammunition. As for the pilgrims, it is even more exaggerated. All of them basically have a surface killing weapon similar to shotguns. After all, the pilgrims are famous for protecting their own personnel.
