From Cannon Fodder to Sweeping Across Thousands of Stars

Chapter 285 The Reappearance of the Large Army

Time passed day by day.

During this period, Atlas Engineering Construction Development Co., Ltd., which had arrived at Rubion V, began large-scale post-war reconstruction work on the planet.

The Rubion Galaxy Autonomous Government gave the Atlas Engineering Project Team all kinds of needs a "green light all the way", and even took the initiative to find the engineering project team to ask about their well-being.

The administrative adjutant, secretary-general and others who were connected with Atlas also smiled every day when they saw the leaders of the engineering project team.

The reason for this situation is very simple, that is, the Atlas Group has carried out large-scale investment operations in the Rubion Galaxy.

In the plan submitted to the Galaxy Autonomous Government, the Atlas Group plans to invest in the construction of multiple large refining centers, alloy smelting and processing plants, and large shipyards in the galaxy.

At the same time, on the planet Rubion V, a large number of factories and biological research institutions were built, and each project was built at the level of "galaxy-level transactions".

In order to have enough personnel to take charge of the positions in these factories, the Atlas Group also plans to invest in the construction of several technical colleges to reserve personnel.

Looking at the astronomical figure in the investment amount column of the "Investment Plan" that is enough to make the dead laugh from the grave, the management of the entire Rubion Galaxy Autonomous Government has never let go of the grin.

It is precisely because of this that the work of Atlas Engineering Construction Development Co., Ltd. in the Rubion Galaxy has been carried out very smoothly.

Even after a cocktail party, a big business of "large-scale replacement project of ground equipment of garrison troops and annual large-scale exercise contracting project" was negotiated, which brought extra money to Atlas Industries and private military companies.

While the people of the engineering project team were doing well in the Rubion Galaxy, other subsidiaries of the Atlas Group were also constantly creating "new performance highs".

Anyway, when Amber looked at the line chart that soared all the way up in the monthly report sent by Lilith, his mouth was also grinning.

The interest-free loan of 8 million spiritual energy points that Alanita lent him had long been repaid and brought an additional 2 million "interest".

According to Amber, the 2 million is purely a "return on investment" for Alanita.

On the other hand, the size of the combat forces under the Atlas Private Military Company has also been increasing during this period.

After the battle on Rubion V spread among the Roma community, the number of people who came to sign up even reached a new high.

The high casualties did not stop the enthusiasm of these Roma to sign up, because the high allowances, bonuses and even pensions of the combat forces had already ignited their hearts.

The comprehensive training center of Babel Tower has also been continuously expanded in this process.

With the help of Alanita, Amber even took over the ownership of a large piece of land nearby and built it into a super-large actual combat training base.

The speed of the "explosion" of the entire training center is completely different from before. A lot of experience summarized from the battlefield has been continuously optimized and added to the training outline.

The comprehensive strength of the trained Roma recruits has also been greatly improved compared to the first few batches of Roma when they just completed training.

At present, the Atlas Private Military Company has reached 15,000 people, excluding the space fleet.

In terms of organization, it is just three combined brigades: heavy, medium and light.

According to the latest revised annual force construction plan of the Atlas Private Military Company, six combined brigades will be rapidly expanded within this year.

And then the troops of these nine brigades will be organized into two or three division-level units.

After the battle on Rubion V, Amber and the combat staff came to a conclusion.

That is, the comprehensive combat capability of the combined brigade has indeed been tested, and such a flexible organization will still be needed in the future.

However, in future wars, the ground forces of major forces will eventually upgrade the campaign-level units to "division-level units" or even larger "army groups".

And the "division-level units" that are flexibly combined through the three types of heavy, medium and light combined brigades will have a similar status at the command and combat levels as the current brigade-level units.

The reason is also very simple, that is, the combined brigade has once again exposed the problem of insufficient manpower in the battles with increasing intensity.

Apart from the situation of "orbital strikes and washing the ground", ground combat is essentially a game of "occupying grids".

Highly informationized troops can certainly be divided into small units for interspersing, but the premise is that there must be a stable front line behind them.

And if you want to maintain a stable front line, then the living force used to "fill the line" must not be less.

Although the deployment width of the combined brigade has actually exceeded the previous "division-level units" under the effect of various technical weapons, it is still a drop in the bucket in the battle of the planetary scale.

Just like the battle on Rubion V, the two sides on the central continent had a total of 12 brigade-level units, and the result was that they fought hard around Ptolemy City and its two satellite cities.

Whether it is the coalition forces or the imperial forces, they actually have no ability to continue to extend the width of the front line. The range of the three cities is the limit of their control.

Especially for these giant cities, their central axis is tens or hundreds of kilometers long, and more troops are needed in battle.

If we think about these reasons, in future battles, if we want to completely control a planet, the troops needed will not be handled by a few synthetic brigades.

So Atlas took the lead in completing the construction of division-level units, and in the subsequent ground force organization, the "division" will become the basic combat unit at the campaign level.

As for why it was not directly built to the level of "army", it is mainly because the current combat force delivery capability is somewhat behind.

In the future, with the improvement of cross-galaxy strategic delivery capabilities, Amber will also consider raising the organization to the "army" level.

Generally speaking, a division will be organized into three to four synthetic brigades, and the types of subordinate synthetic brigades will also be different depending on the "combat expertise" of the division.

In the current plan, it will be divided into five types: assault division, mobile division, assault division, filling division, and reserve division, and will be fine-tuned according to the changes in the combat form in the future.

The assault division is the main offensive force, and its main task in battle is to kill and annihilate the enemy's living forces.

The mobile division is used to "put out fires" on the front line, or to carry out large-scale tactical insertions.

The task of the assault division is to assault and capture the enemy's fortified urban clusters or ground combat fortresses.

The filling division is easy to understand. The equipment level is also the most ordinary. The main task is to fill the line and maintain the stability of the occupied area.

Just as Amber was immersed in the joy of "organizing troops" every day, Lilith's "automated intelligence collection network" in the empire finally obtained an important intelligence.

The contemporary emperor of the Star Dragon Empire is critically ill.
