The starship slowly landed on the take-off and landing field, and before opening the hatch, a series of prompts sounded in Chu Jungui's ears: "The external air pressure is 3 standard atmospheres, the main component of the air is nitrogen, the oxygen content is none, and it cannot be breathed." The outside temperature is currently -65 degrees and is expected to drop to -100 degrees in 3 hours. It is recommended to wear armor at all times when moving on the planet's surface, and it is not recommended to move without protection. ”

This long list of prompts has been played 30 times faster, so outsiders can hear it just a tick.

Chu Jungui opened the hatch, and a wind and sand rushed to his face, and the fine sand and gravel crackled on the battle armor. At this moment, the wind force reached force 9, and in the planetary weather forecast, today's climate is 'quite mild'.

Chu Jungui walked out of the starship against the strong wind, and as far as the eye could see, the air was full of large clouds of sand and dust, and fist-sized stones were flying everywhere. In the open area in the distance, there were three tornadoes moving slowly.

One by one, the soldiers followed Chu Jun back to the starship, and with the support of the auxiliary power of the battle armor, modern soldiers can move freely on windy days below level 10, but the vision is not very comfortable.

Duan Xuyan and his reinforced battalion had already landed first, and were directing the soldiers to move the equipment boxes down from the transport ship and set up defensive positions.

The take-off and landing field is next to the base, and because of the frequent strong winds, most of the buildings in the base are very low, and the tallest building is only 20 meters. Instead, a circle of discs stood around the base, constantly swinging with the direction of the wind.

These discs are more than 10 meters in diameter, with fan blades inside and steel wire mesh on both sides. The wind howls through the disc, propelling the blades to rotate at high speed, powering the base.

Before landing, Chu Jungui had already read the information of the base. This base is a mining base and is used to refine the alloy metal necessary to repair the starship. Although the planet is rich in minerals, the harsh climate makes it expensive to mine and unusable for commercial use. At that time, the Ninth Fleet had no other way but to secretly set up a material base here.

The Federation has also set up a forward base on the planet, preparing to completely uproot the base of the dynasty. However, as soon as the base was built, there was a truce. Now that the war is over, it is natural that this kind of mining base, which has no economic value, will no longer be retained, so it is ready to withdraw all the personnel and equipment of the base.

In the blink of an eye, after the special company was assembled, officers from the base came over to divide the defense area and assign camps.

Several people came over with Duan Xuyan in their arms, and Duan Xuyan greeted him from afar: "Jun Gui, these are the directors of the base." We're going to live with them for the next week until we're packing up and leaving. Come, get to know this Supervisor Su, the old man of the Ninth Fleet. Don't get me wrong, he's not from Xu Zhannian's line, if he does, he can still be assigned to this kind of place where there aren't even birds?"

Director Su said: "Everything is good here, but the environment is worse. Let's go, let's go to the base. ”

Several people boarded the car, drove all the way to the main building of the base, and then went underground. Director Su explained while leading the way: "The environment of the planet is too poor, there are often storms with a speed of hundreds of kilometers per hour, the buildings of the base cannot be too high, and the experience of high-rise living is also very bad, just like sleeping on a medieval sailboat." Therefore, all living facilities should be placed underground, which is also safe. ”

Chu Jun followed everyone into a conference room. The conference room was unusually rudimentary, with nothing but the necessary systems, tables and chairs, and even the walls were made of bare building materials.

After sitting down, Director Su asked people to bring refreshments, and said with a smile: "It's really hard here, when it was first built, there was nothing, not even enough beds." These refreshments are still supplies sent over after the armistice, and Colonel Duan is a person who has seen good things, so don't pay too much attention to it. ”

Duan Xuyan leaned back in his chair and said, "Just pass these few days smoothly." I don't think the Federation will rest on its laurels, and will have to launch an attack or two to test our strengths. After all, we have launched far more operations than they have launched during this time, and the Federation should not endure it like this. ”

Director Su asked, "How many operations have we launched?"

"51 times. ”

Director Su didn't expect so many attacks and harassments, and was stunned for a moment before saying, "This will anger the Federation, right?"

"Of course! Those guys from the Fourth Fleet just want to provoke their opponents and fight a fight in a proper name. Didn't you see that they drove the moon phase of the mobile base of the housekeeper?" Duan Xuyan sneered.

Director Su's face was a little unnatural, and he said, "The combat power of the Fourth Fleet is ...... Reputation. Even our Ninth Fleet has fought so hard, where do they have the confidence to provoke?"

Duan Xu Yan said: "Old Su, you are naïve. Speaking from the bottom of your heart, you fought this battle quite well, but no matter how well you fought, you still didn't have to lose in the end? The truce was not because of you, it was Xu Bingyan's great victory in the Battle of the Vertical Line that forced the Federation to take the initiative to cease the war. ”

"You can't say that, if we hadn't contained several times the military strength of the Federation, would the longitudinal line be fought so smoothly?" Director Su was very indignant.

Duan Xuyan shook his head and said earnestly: "Old Su, you can't say that. Of course, you can think so, but in the eyes of most people, including the federal command, they will consider the two battles to be separate battles, and they will also evaluate them separately. If you think about it, you can at best be evaluated for your bravery and tenacity. It's good to give some military merit, but you can't say anything if you only give a service medal. ”

"It's not fair!" Director Su took the case.

Duan Xuyan sat still and said, "Look at you, aren't you excited again?" This is just my personal opinion, it doesn't matter if you don't approve of it, even if you hear it." ”

Director Su also realized his gaffe, sat down slowly, and said with a hint of helplessness: "I'm sorry, I'm indeed a little excited. We have suffered so hard in the past few months that we have had to strictly ration our food for the last two months, and half of our rations are recycled organic matter. If such a fight does not get a fair evaluation, then I am too disappointed. ”

Seeing him like this, Duan Xuyan diverted the topic and said, "Okay, let's not talk about these unhappy things." The base should be enough to supply now, right? If you don't have enough, you can get some of it from us. Eat and drink enough to work, you hurry up and pack, we can also complete the task quickly. This hellish place, I can't stand it for an extra day. ”

Director Su nodded.

At this moment, Chu Jungui, who had been studying the structure of the base, suddenly raised his head and asked, "Director Su, what is this base excavating?"

"Huh?" Duan Xuyan instantly heard a different taste, and his sharp gaze fell on Director Su's body.
