Time in space seemed to pass a little quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it had been seven days since the minesweeper fleet left Muen. On the fifth day, the fleet had already entered the main sweeping area arranged by the Imperial Military Department, and everyone in the fleet was slightly busy, and many people were even more nervous, entering the sweeping area also meant that the area of frequent battles was frequent, although the sweeping mission in the hinterland of the Eastern Region was much safer than going to the front-line defense area, but there would still be some essential casualties.

On the second day of entering the intended sweep area, the Minesweeper unexpectedly encountered a miniature ghost fleet consisting of two medium warships and three small warships.

The battle of more than a hundred warships against five warships can be imagined.

The ghost fleet of five warships immediately chose to flee without hesitation after encountering the minesweeper fleet, while the minesweeper fleet quickly pursued with all its might, and immediately dispatched a large number of mechs and warships to intercept it.

The ghost fleet was finally forced to fight, sending more than 100 warplanes and dozens of mechs in the fleet, while five warships also carried out suicide attacks, but the result of the battle was that they all turned into fireworks in space, and finally turned into countless fragments in space.

The battle came and went quickly, and it took only ten minutes before and after, and the minesweeping fleet successfully crushed the ghost fleet with an absolute advantage, and successfully destroyed all of them, but the minesweeping fleet also paid a small price for this, two of the small warships suffered light damage, more than a dozen fighters were lost, and seven mechs were lost, and more than 30 fighters and more than a dozen mecha suffered varying degrees of trauma.

For the fleet's mech repair team, a small battle doesn't make much of a difference. The maintenance work of a dozen mechs is not much stress.

On the second day after the fleet left Muen, Fang Shi summoned all the members of the 13th Mechanic Team and held a small meeting within the group, marking his attitude and position as the team leader, and announcing the basic principles of behavior of the team members. In addition, he appointed Chen Shuya as the deputy leader of the thirteenth group, after all, he is still the head of the entire mechanical repair group, and it is impossible to focus all his energy on the thirteenth group, and one more deputy team leader can naturally share a lot of pressure for him.

The reason why Chen Shuya was chosen as the deputy leader of the 13th team is because she is an intermediate mechanic and can give the team members a certain exemplary role in mechanics; Another reason is that she is not biased towards either side of the academic faction or the military faction. Although he was also a person from the academy. But after graduating, he went straight to the Warhawk Mecha Company, and now he treats the team members almost equally.

The members of the thirteenth team had no opinion on Chen Shuya's position as the deputy team leader, after all, they were personally appointed by Fang Shi, the chief mechanic. He has the absolute right to appoint and dismiss the mechanic team. Even if you have any opinions, I'm afraid you can only keep them in your heart. And with Chen Shuya's qualifications, she is fully qualified for the position of deputy team leader.

As for Liu Yang, another intermediate mechanic in the thirteenth group, he was secretly a little dissatisfied, not against Chen Shuya, but at Fang Shi. Obviously, he thought in his heart that Fang Shi was suppressing him, and even the junior mechanics in the other groups had served as deputy leaders, but he was an intermediate mechanic who was just an ordinary team member like the junior mechanic. When he hadn't joined the minesweeping fleet before, he had expected to be a team leader, but now he didn't even have a deputy team leader, which was too different from his expectations.

For Liu Yang, Fang Shi has considered that the members of the thirteenth group are more than those of other groups, and it is completely possible to set up another deputy leader of the group, but after thinking about it slightly, he still dispelled this idea, in his impression, Liu Yang's character is not very good, and he likes to secretly form gangs, which is not conducive to the unity within the group at all.

The day after Fang Shi's appointment was announced, Fang Shi was approached by a major named Liu Ming. This person is Liu Yang's cousin, who served as the commander of a medium-sized warship in the minesweeping fleet, and he was still polite to Fang Shi, and as soon as they met, he took the initiative to admit his mistake for Liu Yang, so that Fang Shi would not be familiar with him, and his ultimate goal was to ask Fang Shi if he could transfer his cousin Liu Yang to the second machine repair team.

"He wants to go to the second mechanic team?"

Fang Shi was slightly surprised by Liu Ming's sudden appearance, he didn't expect that Liu Yang would ask his cousin for help so quickly, it seemed that he was still very unwilling to be an ordinary member of the group.

Liu Ming also hid something, nodded and said: "He really wants to go to the second machine repair team, and he also hopes that Lieutenant Colonel Fang Shi can think about it." ”

Fang Shi was slightly silent for a few breaths, but simply replied, "Well, I'll think about it." But I'll let Liu Yang personally bring this matter up with me. ”

Liu Ming saw that Fang Shi did not refuse, and was slightly happy, he didn't expect this Lieutenant Colonel Fang Shi to be so easy to speak, and he was really a little surprised in his heart, "Okay, Xie Lu Xie Fangshi, this is my little meaning, and I hope to smile." ”

As he spoke, Liu Ming took out a gold card from his pocket and carefully handed it to Fang Shi.

Fang Shi was slightly stunned, and secretly shook his head in his heart, the reason why he agreed to consider it was not because of Liu Ming's face, but in fact, he had his own considerations in his heart. In the thirteenth group, Liu Yang is regarded as the leader of the academic school, and any contradictions that arise have more or less something to do with him, if he is eliminated as the leader, most of the internal contradictions in the thirteenth group should be resolved, and he takes the opportunity to integrate, but he can make the thirteenth group form a solid whole. In addition, this second group is a representative of the academy, and Liu Yang should be able to play a role when he arrives there, which is also beneficial to the entire machine repair group.

"Jinka, you better take it back."

Fang Shi did not accept the gold card handed over, but replied coldly.

Liu Ming sighed slightly, he obviously felt a trace of coldness from Fang Shi's tone, and with a sigh in his heart, he immediately took back the gold card, and then said a few words with some embarrassment.

On the same day, Liu Yang found Fang Shi with some excitement and explained his willingness to be transferred to the second machine repair team.

Fang Shi readily agreed, but he attached a condition that Liu Yang make a special explanation in front of all the members of the Thirteenth Group.

Liu Yang understood that Fang Shi did this in order to cut off his relationship with Wang Lung and the others to the greatest extent, and after thinking about it slightly, he agreed without hesitation, after all, Wang Lung and the others were nothing at all, and according to his cousin's meaning, the relationship between the second group had been dredged, as long as he was transferred to the second group, he could be directly promoted to the deputy leader of the group, and it was much better than him being an ordinary team member in the thirteenth group.

Soon, Liu Yang left the thirteenth group and transferred to the second group, and he also made a special explanation in front of all the members of the thirteenth group according to Fang Shi's meaning.

For Liu Yang's departure, the most depressed are Wang Long and others, who originally relied on Liu Yang to barely hold on, but now Liu Yang has played solo through his cousin's relationship, abandoning them all, and he has more or less resentment in his heart.

Fang Shi struck while the iron was hot and personally talked to Wang Lung and others. Facing Fang Shi, who was already the chief mechanic, Wang Long and the others were still very worried, but when they heard Fang Shi deliberately remind them that they were not to blame for the past, they were greatly relieved, and they were slightly more grateful in their hearts.

Of course, in addition to the necessary reminders, Fang Shi's face also warned two points with a serious face: after one point, it is not allowed to form a small group within the group, and it is necessary to have a good relationship with all the group members; The other point is that everything must be in the interests of the 13th group, and the interests of the entire mechanic group.

In addition, Fang Shi also took the initiative to communicate with Zhou Rong and other mechanics with the background of the troops, the purpose of which was naturally to promote the unity of the 13th group.

While dealing with the Liuyang matter, Fang Shi convened the other twelve team leaders for a specific and detailed discussion after figuring out the relevant situation of the machine repair group, and implemented the specific arrangements of each machine repair group. The original 12 teams basically continued the previous arrangement, but made some minor adjustments to make the tasks of each mechanic team more balanced. In addition, he specially arranged the work of the 13th team, which was mainly responsible for the mechs of the No. 2 and No. 22 battleships. The No. 2 battleship was a large battleship with one hundred and nine mechas, and the No. 22 battleship was a medium-sized warship with thirty-two mechas, and the two battleships had a total of one hundred and forty-one mechas, which could be regarded as relatively reducing the task pressure of the previous twelve teams.

After Fang Shi had roughly arranged the mechanic formation, the minesweeper fleet ushered in his first battle since joining, and successfully destroyed all five ghost warships of the Galactic Alliance, and the 13th team led by Fang Shi also ushered in the first maintenance mission.

Most of the 141 mechs on the No. 2 and No. 22 battleships in charge of the 30th Group participated in this operation, one of which was unfortunately destroyed by the enemy's guns, and the other two mechs suffered varying degrees of trauma.

After the battle, Fang Shi immediately asked Chen Shuya to take more than a dozen team members to deal with one of the less traumatic mechas, while he took the remaining team members to the No. 22 battleship to deal with the other mecha with more serious injuries.

The maintenance of the two mechas, for the thirteenth group is basically no pressure, it is estimated that a few team members can handle it, and the reason why Fang Shi dispatched all the mechanic members is actually to let each team member participate in as many opportunities as possible to practice, and communicate with each other on the mechanical repair problems that arise, so that they can learn more experience, so as to increase everyone's experience and strength in mechanic repair.
