All the data of the star map had been copied into Chu Jungui's mind. There are more than 2,000 stars in the N77 star field, that is, more than 2,000 galaxies. Most galaxies are of little value, and there are less than 100 galaxies that humans have set foot in, and many of the galaxies that have been visited have also set up temporary resource bases or military fortifications because of war.

The secret missions issued by the Fourth Fleet were mostly harassment and raids, with little to no hard-hitting combat. The task of Duan Xuyan and Chu Jungui to complete the raid research base can be regarded as a fortification.

From the mission setting, it can be seen that the Fourth Fleet is here to find trouble. Of course, it is not excluded to secretly fight one or two battles with the main forces of the fleet.

Duan Xuyan browsed the tasks and said, "Find a garrison mission." ”

"Good. Chu Jungui casually took a look, and a task description jumped out.

The mission itself is simple, on a resource planet, both the Federation and the Dynasty have set up gathering bases. The dynastic base needs to be strengthened in order for the final retreat to be successfully completed. The entire period of the guard is about ten days.

As long as it was a guard task, Duan Xuyan felt that there was no difference, so he agreed. However, Sun Kai's face was slightly different, and he glanced at Chu Jungui. However, he didn't say anything, and assigned the task to Duan Xuyan, and equipped it with corresponding troops and resources.

The subordinate unit is a reinforced battalion with a full strength of 1,000 people, plus a special company of Chu Jungui.

The assignments of the tasks were all pre-booked, and Duan Xuyan didn't plan to say more, so after receiving the task, he left the office with Chu Jungui.

Before the automatic door of the office was closed, Duan Xuyan said: "I have no opinion on the officers of the independent service, and I have no prejudice against the children of the family? Isn't this what I am talking about?"

Duan Xuyan's voice is not small, this is just for Sun Kai, and it is already polite not to complain in person. Waiting until the automatic door was completely closed, Chu Jungui asked, "Isn't it true that people from independent servants and families are not performing well?"

"On the contrary, the performance of most people is above the standard! If it were not for the purpose of improving the quality of the officer corps, how could there be such a service system as independent service? Is it so easy for you to become a high-ranking officer? The same is true for the children of the family, most of whom have made considerable achievements in various fields. Of course, there will inevitably be some failures in this. ”

Duan Xuyan complained all the way, walked out of the command center, boarded the shuttle, and went to the barracks to claim the combat troops to which he was assigned. Unlike regular troops like Chu Jungui, Duan Xuyan, as an independent soldier, did not have his own exclusive troops, and he would be specially assigned to the troops every time he carried out a mission.

Chu Jun returned to the starship, left the berth, and waited quietly in space. A moment later, Duan Xuyan's starship and a soldier transport ship flew out of the base and joined Chu Jungui.

After the three starships formed a team, they flew towards the jump point in the distance.

Duan Xuyan's image appeared on the console in front of Chu Jungui, who was pacing back and forth with a glass of wine. After seeing Chu Jun return, he said, "Do you know why I chose a defensive mission?"

"Because it's boring?" Chu Jungui guessed.

Duan Xuyan laughed and said, "I'm not that boring, although this kind of task is really boring. It's rare to have a task with a bonus coefficient, and if you don't do it in vain, you can easily do it for more than a year if you work hard once. For you, this kind of mission can get more military merit. The most important thing is that the danger of this mission is controllable. ”

"Controllable? Chu Jungui nodded.

Duan Xuyan smiled: "There are no variables in this kind of mission, even if the Federation comes to fight, the number is limited." If you can't hold it, you can still evacuate. Unlike some offensive missions, you may fall into the trap of your opponent. ”

"You seem to have a different opinion on some tasks?"

Duan Xuyan smiled: "You really ask everything, okay, it's nothing to talk to you." Do you think these tasks are all reasonable?"

"Not really. At this moment, the data of all tasks was in Chu Jungui's mind, and he naturally knew that the risks of each task were different, and the rewards were not equal. Some missions are potentially dangerous.

"It seems that you know very well, so let me tell you how these tasks came about. The Fourth Fleet can only be said to be the last among the major fleets of the dynasty, and it is not much worse than the bottom. If it weren't for the impact on the Lin family and implicating Lin Xuanshang, it would not have been the turn of the Fourth Fleet to take over the change of defense. Now that they're here, it's clear that they want to show that they are no worse than the Ninth Fleet, if not better. As for the way of manifestation, you have also seen it, which is to constantly create friction and provocation as a bargaining chip for negotiations. ”

"But isn't there too much friction to create? If all the tasks are carried out, I'm afraid there will be war again, right?"

"Most of the tasks will be empty and there will be no one to do it. Duan Xuyan sneered, "Those people above the fleet want to make meritorious contributions, but the people below just want to live." What is it doing in such a meaningless battle? I'm not working for the Fourth Fleet. ”

Chu Jungui thought for a while and said, "We want to attack the Federation, and the Federation may think the same way." I think it's better to be careful this time, just in case. ”

"Don't worry, I'm a good defender. Duan Xuyan disagreed.

The space jump was imminent, and Duan Xuyan cut off the communication. Chu Jungui thought about it and gave a series of orders before entering the space jump. The starships that were originally moored in outer space changed direction and sailed towards the mission goal.

In the Fourth Fleet's mobile base, Sun Kai was staring at the screen in front of him, and the screen kept replaying Chu Jungui's expression and demeanor when he chose the mission. He had already watched it 4 times, but he didn't see anything from Chu Jungui's face or even his eyes. He subconsciously knocked on the table and said to himself, "Is it just a coincidence? The first time was a coincidence, can the second time still be a coincidence? Did he already see something before he took on this task? Impossible, if he saw it, then he shouldn't have taken it." ”

He turned on the communication channel and connected to another slightly mellow general, saying, "Old Xu, mission 135 has been picked up." ”

"Mission 135, let me see...... Is that mission?!" The general on the screen looked a little surprised, and said, "Aren't there some problems with the several missions in that batch?"

"Yes, so we set a relatively high coefficient to remind everyone of the potential dangers of these tasks. But now it's still being picked up. ”

General Xu looked at the mission description and was taken aback again, "Duan Xuyan, is that the person from the Li family in the Heavenly Domain?"

"Yes. ”

General Xu's face changed slightly, "I'm in trouble now." ”
