Quality was more important than quantity. Moreover, Luo Chen had never commanded anyone since he was young.
If he was given a large number of people to command at once, he would not be able to command all of them. Therefore, he had to familiarize himself with the troops first before finding a resource point to expand.
After clicking on the construction of the weapons support center, he looked at the progress bar and was a little dumbfounded. It actually took 12 hours.
The remaining 500 resource points could not be used. He might even have to spend money to build a weapon support center and upgrade it.
He had no choice but to familiarize himself with his troops first.
At this moment, he started to size up his troops. When he saw the magazines on their equipment, Luo Chen was a little confused.
He looked at Li Mo and asked," Why do you have five magazines while the other soldiers only have three?"”
"Sir, because I am a Level 2 veteran and a trainee, I have two more magazines than the recruits.”
"Experience level?" Luo Chen felt that this thing was a little like the rising star in Red Alert.
Li Mo nodded and explained patiently.
"Sir, every Red Alert unit that is recruited has five levels of experience. They are recruit, trainee, veteran, elite, and ace.”
"After each unit's experience increases, not only can it increase its military rank, but it can also obtain a certain degree of strengthening. After becoming a veteran, it can also be promoted.”
"After upgrading, the soldier type can be upgraded, but the experience will be reduced by one level.”
Luo Chen nodded to show that he understood. It seemed like he couldn't give them away even if they were militia, if it was such a system.
Even a cannon fodder militia could become an elite trump card after they became more experienced!
At this moment, the system gave Luo Chen a notification, asking him if he needed to check the soldier's experience level.
Luo Chen opened it and saw that the soldiers 'experience levels were like this. Levels 1 to 3 would have a bar on the armband.
Level 4 would add a silver star to the three bars, and Level 5 would add a gold star. According to the system, this was a seniority badge, not a military rank.
Usually, one could tell the combat strength of a soldier by looking at the armband.
It was no wonder that other than Li Mo, the rest of the mobilized soldiers-oh, the militia-were all private soldiers. Only he was one rank higher.
However, looking at their weapons, Luo Chen couldn't help but ask,""What about your ammunition? Can you supplement it?"
One had to know that it was very difficult to replenish bullets now. Only areas that used to have military forces, such as military bases, garrison areas, or factories, had them.
"Sir, our ammunition is refreshed every day and replenished automatically. Our weapons are highly reliable and will not have any mechanical failures.”
"If you die, can the enemy use your weapons?”
"The enemy can use it, but the weapon won't be as reliable, and the ammo won't respawn.”
" Mm." Luo Chen nodded in satisfaction. At least the ammunition problem was solved.
"Then, soldiers, follow me to clean up these two residential buildings!”
"Li Mo, please protect me."
Next, it was time to test the combat strength of the Red Alert unit. However, Luo Chen wasn't stupid enough to take the lead.
His safety was also very important, so he arranged for Li Mo to protect him.
After everything was arranged, Luo Chen led the militia squad to clean up the residential building.
However, Luo Chen was a little conflicted when he saw his neighbor's security doors.
"Li Mo, can you open these security doors?”
"Sir, if we don't use weapons, we'll have to borrow a crowbar, a fire axe, or a hammer. We don't have the corresponding equipment.”
However, there was a password-protected door on the first floor, so no zombies would be able to break in.
"Then let's break the door with violence."
After Luo Chen gave the order, Li Mo immediately raised his hand and made a tactical gesture to spread out.
"Get into battle formation and start breaking the door!”
The militia were split into three groups, each group consisting of three people. One in front, one in the middle, and one at the back, forming a straight line. The three straight lines joined together to form a triangle.
Then, this triangle could completely explore the field of vision between 0 - 180 in front of them, and they could rely on each other to support each other at any time.
Luo Chen was in the center of this triangle and was under tight protection.
It was a typical modern version of the indoor infantry tactics, an improved 33 formation. He did not expect that these low-level militia could complete such a formation!
Luo Chen was delighted to see that the militia was so well-trained. He didn't expect that even the lowest level of mobilization in the Red Alert unit would have such combat strength.
It seemed that his resource points were really worth it.
When the door was broken, the vanguard of the team walked to the door, and the other two people stuck close to the door to cover him. Then, the vanguard raised the Type 56 submachine gun in his hand and fired two shots in the direction of the door lock.
After two gunshots, he fired three shots at the lock of the security door, accurately breaking it.
Then, the vanguard kicked the security door open.
The two lovers in the room had already mutated from infected people to zombies.
Before they could even react, the Vanguard Squad had already rushed in. They did not even fire, but used the Type 56 military knife equipped with a triangular blade to stab their eyes.
Blood splattered everywhere. Li Mo seemed to have noticed Luo Chen's frown and started to explain in embarrassment.
"Sir, due to limited ammunition, the militia with the rank of private only has two magazines. We have to try our best to conserve ammunition.”
Luo Chen smiled awkwardly. Actually, this was the first time he had seen blood, and he couldn't stand the disgusting smell.
However, for the sake of his glorious image as a commander, he held back. He couldn't possibly be worse than the most trashy private, right?
Those private soldiers did not change their expressions!
Hence, he said with a straight face," Yes, I'm still not familiar with the tactical movements. The coordination is not good enough. I still have to practice."”
"Yes, sir! Sir! We will improve."
Li Mo looked at the calm commander with admiration. As expected of a legendary commander who had seen countless storms, he was able to find their shortcomings so quickly.
