Chapter 525 - Can't be ignored

In the outer orbit of the capital star of the Tang Dynasty, a huge orbital station is slowly flying around the capital star. This orbital station is the command base of the troops directly under the Ministry of Defense of the Dynasty.

Inside the command base, a general is standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, admiring the magnificent view of the capital star. As soon as he took a sip of coffee, a light screen appeared next to him, flashing with a notification that he had received an important document.

He clicked on the screen and saw that it was the establishment information of a direct special company. The general was suddenly a little displeased, snorted, and said, "What a fuss!"

A video of a lieutenant colonel appeared next to him, and after saluting, he said, "General, only you have the authority to approve this application for establishment." ”

"Alright, I got it. Probably which family wants to pave the way for their children. Isn't that what we're here?"

The lieutenant colonel seemed to feel the same way.

The command of the direct subordinate troops sounds good, but in fact it is a mixed bag. Many big families send their children here, because they value relative freedom of movement, and they can't go anywhere if they serve in other troops. This is the case for more than half of the 10 directly subordinate units.

In the eyes of the general, this application for establishment is also true, otherwise how could he ask him to approve a company's application? Generally, this kind of application will be approved if there is nothing too outrageous. The general didn't intend to get himself in trouble, so he opened the application and prepared to approve it at a glance.

However, the first row of the list surprised him.

Applicant: Wilson, Position Requested: Deputy Company Commander, Rank Lieutenant. Curriculum vitae: Former lieutenant general of the Federal Pirate Banner Legion.

The second row is equally shocking.

Applicant: Shears, Position: Deputy Company Commander, Rank Lieutenant. Curriculum vitae: Former Major General of the Federal Drag Flower Legion.

The general was calm, and when he saw a group of former federal colonels such as Roland, who applied for platoon commander, he was no longer so shocked. The long list of lieutenant colonels in the back can only be squad leaders or even senior soldiers.

The general read the list from beginning to end again, and found that he was indeed not mistaken. There was only one major from the former Federation on the entire list, and he could only deign to be a private.

There was silence for a long time, and the coffee in the general's hand was cold.

The Swan sailed to Planet 4 again, this time with a destroyer in tow. A sizable orbital station has already appeared in the low orbit of Planet 4. The destroyer docked at the orbital station under the command of the Swan, and hundreds of engineers immediately entered the destroyer to begin overhauling and rehabilitating the destroyer, while adding new armor to the destroyer.

A large number of energy capsules have been stacked in the orbital station, just in time to replace the empty energy capsules brought by the Swan and the destroyer. This time, the modification and overhaul of the Swan and the destroyer had to be completed at the same time, so it took two days.

In this round of operations, the Swan was not damaged much, only a layer of armor plates was replaced, and the hull structure was basically intact. Now Lin Xi is already a veritable fleet under his command, and the Swan has firepower beyond the heavy patrol level. And the disappearance of the Obsidian has shocked the entire Federation fleet in the war zone, and now the general hunting fleet basically runs away when it sees the Swan, but Lin Xi has not gained much success.

After the departure of the Swan, two more destroyers came to the orbital station for overhaul. The engineers are now so skilled that they can complete the initial overhaul of a destroyer in a day.

The overhaul solution is full of the style of the test body, and pursues the ultimate efficiency, regardless of whether it is beautiful or not. For damage on the hull, engineers often cut the damage area directly into a square shape, and then directly filled it with armor plates. As for the lack of strength of the hull, then stick another layer of armor plates on the inside and outside. Anyway, Chu Jungui doesn't have much else now, that is, the most armor plates.

After the two destroyers completed the overhaul and replenished their energy, the strength of the Lin Xi fleet increased again, and now this fleet is already a force to be reckoned with in the theater of operations.

Chu Jungui and Lin Xi originally planned to attack the federal base on Planet 4, and the first step was to intercept the fleet that supplied the base. However, Chu Jun returned to the surface of the storm cloud with the bursting sea urchin, and Lin Xi led the Swan to ambush on the other side of the high orbit, waiting for three full days without waiting for the supply fleet.

Chu Jungui felt that something was wrong, normally speaking, he shouldn't have been able to see the supply fleet for so long. The Federation base is not completely self-sufficient like Chu Jungui, they are all very dependent on supplies. There was no supply for three days, and although there would not be much problem with the operation of the base, it would have an impact on the morale of the army to some extent.

After pondering, Chu Jungui decided to go through the storm clouds and go to the Federation base to have a look. Lin Xi was on guard and cover at the high track.

Once everything was arranged, the Burst Sea Urchin entered the storm clouds and returned to the surface of Planet 4.

After passing through the storm clouds, Chu Jungui compared the map, and the place where he entered the planet at this moment was about 200 kilometers away from the federal base. This was a relatively safe distance, Chu Jungui lowered his altitude and flew towards the federal base at a low altitude of 100 meters.

It didn't take long for the federal base to appear on the horizon.

At this moment, the entire base was silent, and most of the rapid-fire guns on the forts set up hung low, and there was no light in sight of the entire base.

Chu Jungui stopped the Sea Urchin and activated the optical reconnaissance system, magnifying the image dozens of times. At this time, you can see that the walls of the base have collapsed in several places, and several defensive guns on the battery are missing. The entire base is covered in a mottled patch of color, which is the result of a long period of unmaintained care.

Chu Jungui charged the beam cannon in advance, and then slowly approached. There was no response from the base's defense system, and only then did Chu Jungui dare to be sure that this base had been abandoned.

The Sea Urchin first circled the base and then hovered over the base. At this point, you can see that there are many signs of damage inside the base, many of the buildings are covered with claw marks, and several metal gates have fallen in the middle of the square, twisted and bitten.

The Sea Urchin fired two high-energy beams that blasted a corner of a building apart. made such a big movement, and the base was still lifeless, and there were no people or war beasts to come out.

The Sea Urchin opened the hatch, and Chu Jungui flew out of the starship with a dozen crew members and landed on the central square of the base.

The layout of this base is different, the defense is much more solid than the original base 2, surrounded by walls tens of meters high, and there are turrets at intervals. But it's not as thick as the shadow of doom, and it seems that the Federation, after several failures, has finally found a suitable base building model.

The gates of the base fell to the ground unnormally, and a large part of the side walls collapsed. Looking at the traces, you can see that the gate was knocked down by the giant rhinoceros. However, there are not many traces left by the war beasts inside and outside the outer wall and on the wall, but the traces of the battle inside the base are dense.

Chu Jungui made a gesture and led the commandos to the command building of the base.
