Chapter 39
After talking to Monica again and informing her of the female worm's guess, Shang Si frowned when he saw the image-oriented woman on the other side of the screen.
After a long silence, Monica just nodded to Shang Si, indicating that she understood.
Shang Si understands that it is difficult for Monica to deal with such a situation. She is the CEO of An Shing Province and wants to ensure the personal safety of all residents of An Sing Province, but she cannot directly dispatch the army, and she can only report matters to the council. Only the parliament can decide whether or not to transfer troops.
And now, Monica is a liar who wants to cheat money in the hearts of the members of Parliament.
Formal channels don't work, so Monica can only find another way. The last time the council made the decision to hide the Zerg information, Monica contacted the people on the front line of the border army to help them improve their equipment so that they could find and eliminate the Zerg as much as possible.
It's just that the difficulty of the last time was low after all, and if there really is a high-level mother worm this time, it won't be eliminated by relying on the detachment of the border army to fight alone.
Monica didn't say anything about it in the end, and she needed to think about it. However, she also brought news to Shang Si.
"Someone is going to be transferred to your detachment." Monica's mood adjusted quickly, her face was still full of sadness just now, and now she regained her charming smile.
Well?
Shang Si was a little surprised, but it wasn't for the transfer of team members, he was not satisfied with the team here, and it was normal to transfer people over. But why would Monica, a CEO, pay attention to such an inconspicuous news?
Monica: "That guy is said to have graduated from Curran Military Academy, too. β
That's no wonder. After all, the Colan Military Academy is the first military school in Shengyue, and the graduation requirements are very strict, and those who can graduate from it are all really talented and learned. In a place like the Central Army, where there are many talents, it will be taken seriously, let alone in a place like the Border Army.
However, are graduates of the Curran Military Academy generally entering the Central Army if they are not familiar with it? How did you get to the frontier?
Shang Si was full of questions, but after Monica said this, she hung up the communication very neatly, so that he didn't have time to ask. But people will always come here anyway, so it's okay to ask when the time comes. Shang thought about it.
A week later, Detachment VIII received their new recruits at the supply point.
"Mech pilot Bird, come and report."
The new team members have red hair, are tall, and have a strong body, but they have a sense of decadence all over their bodies. If not this last point, the new team members are completely in line with the impression of mech pilots.
After Shang Si returned the salute, he looked at the person in front of him and felt that it seemed a little familiar, but he was face blind, and he couldn't remember where he had seen this person for a while.
It was Sune's greeting that made Shang Si recall.
Sune: "Bird, senior. β
It turned out that the person who came was actually one of the graduates of the mecha department who came to instruct in the actual combat fighting class that year-Bird.
A lot of things happened in that class back then, and Shang Si also helped Su Ne in that class. However, at the beginning, the cause of the incident was that the mecha department wanted to teach the provocative little white face a lesson, and Bird was the main force in beating the little white face.
At that time, the little white face was full of words shouting "Do you know who my father is", but it turned out to be useless, and he was still beaten to cry and cry for his mother. Although his father really has a background in politics, he hasn't left the school gate yet, how could the young and vigorous military cadets be afraid of this.
But not afraid to return, the graduates of the mecha department are still unlucky. From the arrogant and domineering appearance of the white face, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, you can see that the father who handed over this kind of son is not a good thing. The only baby son was beaten in the military school, and the father naturally wanted to help take revenge. It's just that the things his son did first did offend the anger of the mecha cadets, and his hand couldn't reach inside the Curran Military Academy, so he could only endure it.
When the people who beat his son all graduated and entered the Central Army, the little white-faced father showed his skills.
The mecha students who participated in the year were found to be faulty in three days, and then they were demoted when they found a reason. As the leader at that time, although he had good ability, he couldn't withstand the pressure from the people above, and was demoted again and again, demoted to a third-class non-commissioned officer, and finally was assigned to the frontier and became a member of Shangsi's team.
It's hard to put into words.
Shang Si asked Sune to prepare a small welcome ceremony for this hapless alumnus, in fact, according to the situation of the poor jingle of the eighth detachment, that is, to eat a good meal at the supply point, at least it was the chef who cooked, not the cold machine.
It's good to establish friendship at the dinner table, and a group of big men are together, and it won't take long for them to get acquainted.
"So, you're here because you've been retaliated against?" The fast-talking Arnold always spoke so directly.
"yes." Bird smiled bitterly, they were still too young back then, and they were not afraid of heaven and earth, but as soon as they entered the Central Army, they were suppressed in various ways.
It's not that they haven't been there, and most of the people in the mecha department are short-tempered. But the result is useless, should be found or found to be wrong. After doing this many times, they can only admit it.
Shang Si looked at Bird, this big man has indeed changed a lot, from that high-spirited cadet, to decadent. And according to the time, it was only two years after he left the Curran Military Academy.
Bowen has always eaten a lot, and he has no habit of eating and talking, so he is the first person to put down the utensils at the table.
He slowly wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and then said to Bird, "You didn't go to the little white-faced father named Wayne to apologize?" If you go, the politician who gives you enough benefits may let you go. β
"We're not going to apologize." Bird replied without thinking about Bowen's words. "We have done nothing wrong, and we will never bow down to them just because we are suppressed."
"It's good, the old man likes young people like you, you have backbone!" Yan Kou slapped the table and praised, "Now that it's our eighth detachment, the old man dares to promise that no one will suppress you again, do a good job, young man!" β
β¦β¦
The meal was enjoyable, everyone welcomed the newcomer, and Bird's big personality could easily blend in with everyone.
At this stage, only Shang Si is worried.
Without him, Bird is a mech pilot, but ......
There are no mechs on board the Raven.
Xiao Yi's one doesn't count, it's someone's personal belongings. That Dolemi drove the AG-33 and could already be sold as scrap metal.
So how do you arrange a mech pilot......
Shang Si sighed worriedly.
Obviously it's a good thing, Bird is a powerful combat power, but without a mecha, this combat power can't be exerted!
Now that the Zerg are appearing more and more frequently, multiple helpers can at least reduce the risk. Originally, the Raven was supposed to be equipped with two mechas, but now one is bad and can't be used, and the other is no news after being pulled away.
Thinking of the system's task of building a sharp knife team in three years, Shang Si had a headache.
After a year of getting along, Shang Si also found that the members of the eighth team were actually not bad. He won't talk about it, Su Ne has a good management of logistics and materials, Yan Kou is also very good at weapon control, although Dolemi and Arnold look naΓ―ve, but they are still very reliable in maintenance, and Bowen is pale every day, but his medical skills are also good.
It looks like Team 8 is full of talent.
However, except for him and Yan Kou, the others were all logistics. Although logistics is important, the most important thing for the Sharp Knife Squad is combat effectiveness. Although Xiao Yi is a top mecha pilot, he is a foreign aid, and the eighth team can't plan anything except for him and Yan Kou?
Well, now here Bird, an outstanding graduate of the mecha department of the Curran Military Academy, can be regarded as adding a combat power to Shangs. But they don't have mechs, so they can't let Bird go naked and fight the Zerg......
A few days later, Shang Si received another contact from Monica.
After talking about business, Monica's strict and serious meeting face immediately changed to nightclub mode.
"Little brother, if you have anything to worry about, you can talk to your sister~" Monica said as she winked at Shang Si.
Shang Si secretly shuddered. Monica is good at everything, but she just likes to tease him, as long as there is nothing serious, every time the call is about to end, she has to come to this once. Shang Si was helpless about this.
"Seriously, you really don't have anything to ask me for help with?" Monica's teasing of Shang Si was fruitless, and she sighed that it was becoming more and more uncute, and then said, "What are you going to do with that new Bird?" β
Shang Si looked at Monica, was there a way for her to ask that?
Monica: "If you want to know what to do, you give me a flying kiss~"
Shang Si black line.
Monica giggled.
"Okay, I'm not going to tease you, Bird, where are you going to put it?"
Shang Si was a little worried, and he couldn't do anything, after all, the eighth team couldn't afford to buy a mecha now.
Monica: "Do you want a mech?" β
Shang Si looked at Monica and said nothing: Did you give it away for nothing?
Monica:......
Monica: "Oh, it's impossible to give it away for nothing, the mecha is so expensive, but there is still a way, what do you think about the loan?" β
"Lending?" I've never heard of it.
"Anyway, if you give the right rent, the mecha will be there, how about it, will you rent it or not?"
"Rent!" Shang Si said categorically, renting a mecha can at least alleviate the current problem of insufficient attack power, why not rent it.
"Okay, I'll send the contract over in a while, and after signing it, you give me a coordinate, and I'll ask someone to send the mecha over."
So fast?
Shanth wondered, Monica couldn't have been ready a long time ago......
"After the contract is signed, send it over~" Seeing Shang Si's puzzled eyes, Monica quickly finished the contract, gave Shang Si a flying kiss and quickly closed the communication.
Shangsi: ......
Anyway, the problem with the mecha is solved for the time being, and the new Bird can go back to his job.
Seven days later, the mech arrived at the Raven's location on time. Shang Si was silent on the surface, but in fact, he handed over the crystal card to the smiling Monica with blood in his heart.
Of course, Shang Si was not the only one who was dripping blood in his heart, and several other members of the Raven saw Monica put away the crystal card with a smile on her face, and their faces wrinkled in pain.
