Among the assistants beside Yang Yi, in terms of qualifications, Jackson is still above Shen Chengwen. It can be said that Jackson is one of Yang Yi's most trusted subordinates. Although under Yang Yi's arrangement, Jackson and the interstellar mercenaries who followed Jackson before all joined the Special Reconnaissance Team and obtained official status, they were completely different from the other officers and soldiers of the Special Reconnaissance Team, and their relationship with the Third War Zone was not very close. Mainly, after joining the Special Reconnaissance Brigade, Jackson and the others still followed Yang Yi and did not go to other squadrons and squads. Besides, Jackson had only been at the headquarters of the Special Reconnaissance Brigade for a short time, and they did not have a close relationship with other officers and soldiers.

The point is, Jackson's experience before joining the Special Detective Brigade was valuable.

After deciding to form an alliance with the Star Soul Empress and rely on the support of the Star Weaver Clan to resist the invading Silicon Charm army, Yang Yi arranged a special mission for Jackson to use the channels of the Jade Family as an interstellar mercenary to recruit people everywhere and try to return to the North Fourth District. Because he didn't know the situation in the North Fourth District and didn't set the direction of development, Yang Yi didn't make too many demands on Jackson, or even have clear instructions, just asked Jackson to do his best to recruit people, and then greet Yang Yi and them back to the North Fourth District. To put it simply, it is to let Jackson see the opportunity to act, take the lead in returning to the North Fourth District, and establish a base for Yang Yi by cooperating with the Yu family.

Obviously, only Jackson could perform such a task.

If it were replaced by Shen Chengwen, Yang Yi would definitely not arrange it like this, because no matter what, Shen Chengwen was a senior officer of the Special Investigation Brigade. Even if Shen Chengwen is dead set on Yang Yi, he will never betray, nor will he openly act against the Third War Zone, let alone do anything that goes against the interests of the Third War Zone. Obviously, Jackson has no such problems, so naturally he will not have any concerns because of the identity of the soldiers of the special investigation team.

It's just that. Yang Yi didn't know what Jackson was doing.

In the past few months, Yang Yi has not been in contact with Jackson, and according to his deployment, there is no particularly important matter and there is no need to contact.

When he saw Jackson, Yang Yi was also surprised, because he didn't expect Jackson to arrive with reinforcements from the Champagne Galaxy.

Subsequently. Yang Yi figured out what was going on.

After parting ways with Yang Yi in the Central Region, Jackson used the channel provided by the Yu family to return to the Northern Region, but because the route was blocked by the enemy, he could not return to the Northern Fourth Region in time. In order to return to the North Fourth District, Jackson traveled to many places and met many people, most of whom were wandering human mercenaries. Although the Human Federation is only a sixth-class civilization, after five Greenwich Wars, humanity has long been known for its courage and war. Many leave home galaxies. The humans who left the North 4th Region have become interstellar mercenaries, working for other civilizations everywhere. Although not everyone was willing to follow Jackson back to the North Fourth Sector to resist the invading enemy, thanks to Jackson's efforts, many interstellar mercenaries still made the choice to join the team commanded by Jackson. As a result, by the time Jackson found a secret route opened by pirates, his team had grown to several thousand.

Obviously, this is a force to be reckoned with anywhere.

To know. In this team, Jackson and Justin are the best fighters. Buck and the others are all level 10 soldiers, and there are many soldiers among the new recruits. Although there are not as many powerful human warriors as Jackson, and few have reached the level of level 10 soldiers, compared to ordinary mercenaries, these soldiers with original energy converters are definitely stronger, and they have the strength to compete with the silicon charm warriors.

With this team. Jackson also has the capital to return to the North Fourth District.

After finding the pirates, Jackson used his strength and actions to obtain a ticket back to the North Fourth District, a ship large enough to hold everyone to be exact.

It's just that after returning to the North Fourth District, Jackson and the others are at a loss.

Then. The home system has been besieged by the Silicon Charm army, and all shipping routes are either cut off or controlled by the enemy. Not to mention returning to the home system, even if it's close to the home system, it's dangerous. Jackson and the others only have a dilapidated spaceship that they have taken from the pirates, although it is a standard pirate ship with a certain amount of combat effectiveness, but in front of the powerful silicon ghost battleship, it is obviously vulnerable.

It can be said that to return to the home galaxy is to send them to death.

The problem was that the other star systems, the colonial galaxies, were almost all lost, and even those that did not fall were invaded by the enemy.

In other words, in the entire North Fourth District, there is no place where Jackson and his foothold can stay.

Relying on a dilapidated pirate ship to wander around in the vast space of the universe will certainly not last long. If nothing else, thousands of people have to eat, and the spaceship is not loaded with many supplies, which can last for several months at most. After eating all the food, even if the ecosystem is still functioning, the people on board will starve to death. What's more, without a clear purpose, the spacecraft can easily deviate from course during long voyages. If you are lost in the depths of the universe, even if you have food, you will not be able to reach the star system because you have no route coordinates. In other words, if they were lost in the depths of the universe, even Jackson and all of them would be consumed alive during the long voyage.

In interstellar voyages, the most frightening thing for a crew is disorientation.

In fact, this is also the reason why interstellar routes are crucial.

Not to mention that in the Human Federation, even in a top-level civilization like the Weaver Clan, only a very small number of advanced warships can sail across galactic systems without relying on shipping routes. Almost all civilian spacecraft do not have the ability to sail independently, and can only sail on routes with clear coordinates. Due to the space-time effect, a spacecraft can only travel at a tenth of the speed of light at the fastest time after leaving its course, and at such a speed, it would take at least a few decades to travel from one star system to a neighboring star system. If it were in a remote area where the star system was not too dense, such as the North 4 Region, it would probably take hundreds of years. You know, the ecosystem on any civilian spacecraft can't last for hundreds of years.

To put it figuratively, if you think of the universe as a vast desert, the galaxy is an oasis in the desert.

Obviously, if you can't reach the oasis, then getting lost in the vast desert is a dead end.

You can't return to your home galaxy, and you can't stay in space for a long time. You know, the spacecraft has to maintain a certain speed before landing. In addition, all star systems are in motion, and even if the spacecraft is not moving, its relative position to the star system is constantly changing.

Jackson had no choice but to choose a nearby star system.

This is the Champagne Galaxy.

Don't forget, the Champagne Galaxy is originally south of North 4, far from the Greenwich Meteorite Belt and very close to the Center, and Jackson came from the Center.

Besides, the battle in the Champagne galaxy isn't over yet.

By the time Jackson and the others returned to North 4, the Champagne system had been overrun by the Silicon Charm army, but the inhabitants of the Aged Star had not surrendered or given up resistance.

Anyway, you need to find a place to stay, and the inhabitants of the Champagne galaxy are still resisting, which is not bad.

The arrival of Jackson changed the situation in the Champagne galaxy.

In fact, before Jackson and the others arrived, the invading Silicon Charm army had taken control of the situation, compressing the Resistance into a small area. Because of the lack of weapons and equipment, and even less combat experience, these armed civilians are no match for the formidable Silicon Charm Legion. If it weren't for the cornered, surrender would also be sent to death, I'm afraid that the resistance group on the aging planet would have laid down their arms long ago.

That's why the Silicon Charm Army didn't take the Resistance seriously at all.

At that time, there were twenty legions of the Silicon Charm army stationed in the aging star, but only two legions were besieging the resistance, and the other eighteen legions were scattered everywhere, not only lacking the sense of prevention, but also did not make any preparations for battle, almost all of the legions were carrying out infrastructure construction.

Quite simply, the Silicon Charm army uses the Aging Star as a springboard to the central region.

Judging from the situation at the time, the Silicon Enchantress army that had captured the Champagne Galaxy was preparing to march into the Center. As long as the home system is laid, the army of silicon charms here will concentrate on the aging star and then set off from the Champagne system. To do this, the Silicon Phantom Legion stationed in Aging Star will have to build enough camps before then, and even complete environmental modifications to make Aging Star suitable for silicon-based creatures.

As a result, thousands of interstellar mercenaries under Jackson's command annihilated the two Silicon Phantom legions besieging the Resistance in one fell swoop.

After rescuing the Resistance, Jackson naturally gained the trust of the Resistance, and then became the commander of the Champagne Resistance.

Although Jackson thought about liberating the Aged Star and destroying all the invading enemies, after a few battles, he gave up on this unrealistic idea. He brought only a few thousand interstellar mercenaries, and only a hundred or so were soldiers. As for the resistance on the aging star, all of them were civilians, and none of them were soldiers. They were facing eighteen Silicon Phantom legions, and the enemy had heightened their vigilance.

It can be said that it is very good to be able to protect oneself and not be destroyed by the enemy.

Next, what Jackson did was to lead the resistance to fight a guerrilla war against the enemy, and by the way, gather the survivors who were scattered all over the place, develop more resistance personnel, and find ways to arm the resistance who were encouraged to join in.

It was an extremely difficult time, and what kept Jackson going was his trust in Yang Yi.

Jackson knew that Yang Yi would soon return to the North Fourth District with reinforcements from the Weaver Clan, and after the siege of the home system was lifted, he would send the legion over. All they have to do is hold out until reinforcements arrive, try to survive, and keep fighting the enemy.

It's just that plans never catch up with change.

While Jackson was struggling to hold on, the tide of battle changed.

Because of the blockade, there was no way to communicate with the outside world, so Jackson did not know the situation outside, and even if he knew about the situation at that time, there was nothing he could do. For Jackson, the number one priority is to stay alive and to keep more people alive. (To be continued.) )
