Planet Nine, outer space.

Eleven massive starships are suspended in space, while below is a planet like no other.

In the vast universe, most planets are so quiet that it's hard to know what it's like without climbing up. But this planet is different, and you can tell it is dangerous at first glance. From outer space, the surface of the planet is covered with clouds, and dazzling thunder and lightning flicker incessantly. Something seems to be brewing, to tear everything on the planet apart.

"This place, it's really scary to look at. ”

In a room on the No. 2 ship, Li Mu, who was wearing a captain's uniform, sat in front of the computer and typed something. When he was done, he stretched and looked at the planet through the window.

"But it's worth it, the planet's environment is just enough to do a few small experiments. There are also several rare ores that seem to be able to be mined. ”

Li Mu's self-talking calculations have obviously not jumped out of the state of being a top student.

The current Li Muling has the rank of captain, deputy captain of the second group of the No. 2 ship of the 2nd fleet, and acting captain.

When he got this position, Li Mu once suspected that he was cursed by the second enchantment.

When I first went to the Immigration Bureau of Xia Dao City, I was assigned to the second department. was recruited to participate in the new third district operation, and it was the second team, and it was the second-in-command. finally became the boss of the military academy for a year, and now he has been recruited by the military and joined the second brigade of the No. 2 ship of the Second Fleet to continue to be the second-in-command.

If it was Li Mu in the past, he would definitely have to fight, even if it was only symbolic. But now that the second young master, who has been promoted to a scholar, feels that every point is precious, and he has no time to pay attention to those.

After reporting to the Second Fleet, Li Mu did not go to see his soldiers as usual. I just called a few squadron leaders of the second brigade to get acquainted with him, and then locked himself in the house and continued to recharge through self-study.

Don't look at Li Mu running around in the departments of the First Military Academy, he can learn everything, he can learn anything, it seems that he can't do it. The more things he could learn, the more Li Mu knew that he was not very good.

The main task of the First Military Academy is to train officers, not scientific researchers. Although there are disciplines such as medicine and ordnance, in the future, those students will not enter scientific research units after graduation, but will still enter combat units.

The Federation fleet conquers the universe, and every time it arrives on a new planet, it has to conduct some exploration and research. It is impossible for a pure scientific researcher to run around with the fleet, and in the event of an emergency, it is difficult for those who have not undergone military training to protect themselves. These are the main tasks of the researchers trained by the military academy.

Li Mu is naturally very strong compared to ordinary people now, but there is still a big gap compared to those who are in professional universities.

For example, the eighth-level mechanic qualification certificate does represent considerable ability, and repairing starships is no longer a problem. If the manufacturing technology is available, even if all the objective conditions are met, it can only be "involved" in manufacturing. It's still a long way from actually building one.

However, it is also true that Li Mu is interested in learning, as if a new door has been opened. The military academy couldn't satisfy him, and Second Young Master Li, who was originally resistant to returning to the furnace for further study, has now begun to ponder whether to go back to Interstellar University to further his studies.

"Report!" someone shouted at the door.

"Enter. Li Mudao.

"Vice-brigade. A soldier walked in and saluted: "Captain asked me to inform you that the meteorological situation on Planet Nine is improving, and the fleet orders to land on Planet in an hour." ”

"Got it. Li Mu said: "Everyone is in place, I'll go over." ”

"Yes. The soldier saluted and turned to leave.

A year of military school was not in vain, in addition to studying those messy things, Li Mu's biggest change is his temperament. After staying in the military environment for a long time, it is difficult to think of no change.

Although Li Mu himself felt nothing, at least on the surface, he already looked like a soldier.

However, it is normal for this kind of performance to be limited to Li Mu, if you encounter any stimulus, the main personality that is covered by the attributes of the academic bully is still easy to reawaken.

"Yo, isn't this Team Li, it's really rare to see. ”

Li Mu had just arrived at the tarmac, and before he could reach the assembly point of the second brigade, he met an officer head-on.

Captain of the First Brigade Zhou Feiyu, with the rank of major.

The captains of the No. 2 ship, Li Mu had met once when he reported on the first day, and since then, except for occasional encounters during meals, there has been no communication of any kind.

"Brigade Zhou. Li Mu saluted.

The other party's rank is higher than him, and he is the oldest captain on the ship, and the basic etiquette in the army must be observed.

Zhou Feiyu returned the salute, smiling rather than smiling: "You see that you have been here for so many days, and you don't show a single face, so you lock yourself in the house." I don't know what you're busy with every day, busy with your homework?"

This situation is very common in the army, and newcomers have to be beaten by veterans when they come, and student soldiers have to increase the amount. During the battle of the New Third District, the students of the First Military Academy only lived in the base in the form of an observation group, and the veterans did not look good. What's more, now Li Mu is a student in school, and he is directly a deputy captain.

Not to mention that veterans like Zhou Feiyu who climbed up from the grassroots are not convinced, even officers with the same military academy background are not convinced.

In the past, according to the practice of the First Military Academy, if you are good enough when you graduate, you can directly serve as a team leader. For example, Li Qing, the third child of the Li family, is a typical example.

But before graduation, no matter how good your performance is, you can be a squadron leader at most during the internship, and even many of you will be a squad leader.

As a result, Li Mu came up as the acting captain, and he didn't even bring recruit training, so he went directly to actual combat, and some people had long been holding back and wanting to compete.

It's just that Li Xueba is dedicated to learning, and he is almost closed these days after the report, and he will only take pictures when he eats. As we all know about the nature of foodies, as long as there are no major contradictions, no one will find fault at meal time. Because that's not that you can't get along with others, but that you can't get along with yourself.

Now Li Mu finally appeared during non-meal time, and the others didn't have time to come over to make trouble, but Zhou Feiyu didn't want to miss it. I can't do anything else, and there's always time for a few runs.

In the face of Zhou Feiyu's provocation, Li Mu nodded honestly.

"yes, a project in the school was not completed, and I deduced some data. ”

Zhou Feiyu's expression froze, and he smiled again: "The student soldiers are just different from us old and rough, they are easy to learn." But it's right to study hard, the real battlefield is not a hotbed like school, if you don't have some psychological preparation, you will be scared to pee your pants when the time comes. ”

"Well, Brigade Zhou is right, the battlefield and the school are too different. Li Mu thought back about the matter in the new third district, and nodded thoughtfully: "The quality of the student soldiers is good, but they are still too tender." It's not enough to be scared to pee your pants, but the first time I did panic a little......"

“......”

Li Mu kept commenting, but Zhou Feiyu was full of black lines. The heart said that this kid really doesn't understand or fake can't understand. Lao Tzu is squeezing you, can you give a normal response?

How did he know that Li Mu did not have the consciousness that he was a student soldier at all.

Although he has been in the military academy for a year, Li Mu subconsciously returned to the furnace for further study, and he cannot be regarded as a real student. Zhou Feiyu was there to run, but Li Mu had no concept of being run at all.

The two of them were "talking happily" here, and the others looked at each other with strange faces.

Li Mu and Zhou Feiyu had no one around them, but now the troops were gathering and preparing, and the tarmac was full of people. The officers and soldiers didn't seem to be looking this way, but in fact most of them were secretly looking.

"Admire, I didn't expect Team Li to be so calm. Zhou Feiyu didn't want to have a war of words, so he directly issued a battle letter: "According to the rules of the 2nd Fleet, how about we compare in a while." Time from the start of the journey until you return to the ship to see which team has more prey. ”

"Okay. Li Mu agreed.

The fleet's gathering mission does not include ores and the like, just plain food. In other words, go hunting. This kind of thing is not a mutual PK, it is completely a healthy competition, of course Li Mu will not refuse.

After separating from Zhou Feiyu, Li Mu met with the soldiers for the first time.

There was no morale-boosting instruction, but the order was conveyed normally, and then he led the team to board the ten patrol ships and wait for the final order to attack.

"Captain, why didn't you say a few words just now?"

Looking at Li Mu, who was there with the old god, the squadron leader of the first squadron sitting next to him couldn't hold back.

Other times it was gone, but now it's about to go on a mission to the dangerous Planet Nine. As the top commander who leads the team, he has no willingness to communicate with his subordinates at all. In case of a problem with the command, it will be the soldiers of the second brigade who will be unlucky. Not to mention, there are also two brigades of bets.

"What are you talking about?" Li Mu asked rhetorically: "You are all veterans of a hundred battles, and you have carried out many missions before I came here, so you don't need to ask for anything." ”

"That's right......" The squadron leader snorted for a while, and then said, "But just now, didn't I see that you and Captain Zhou were still discussing the competition?"

"Yes, but you don't have to be stressed. Li Mu comforted: "Normal tasks are fine, winning or losing is not important, friendship comes first and competition is second." ”

"I'm afraid it's not going to work. The squadron leader said: "According to the rules of the Second Fleet, the losing side must give up three days' food rations. In other words, if we lose, our brigade will only be able to eat compressed dry food for three days in a row. ”

"Huh?" The calm Li Xueba finally stopped calm: "What broke the rules, who decided it?"

Food rationing is to eat normally, with vegetables, meat and nutrition. And the stone-like compressed dry food, only a fool would like to gnaw on that.

"You really don't know. The squadron leader said helplessly: "It was decided by Commander Ding, saying that this would boost morale." When we compared it before, it was like this. ”

Commander Ding's name is Ding Baoshan, the fleet commander of the Second Fleet. If it is a private agreement, Li Mu can not abide by it. But if the rules of the fleet commander are broken, it will be more than just three days' rations.

Li Mu was silent for a moment and issued an order.

"The whole team, assemble, I want to speak!"

The head can be broken and the blood can flow, and the stomach and intestines of foodies cannot be lost. I have to work hard for three days' rations.
