Chapter 385: First Blood (Second Update)
Xue Zhongzhi didn't realize that the moment of eye contact just now was the first collision of the two civilizations, and his first reaction was: Mine thief!
The Mine Pirates call themselves Space Pirates, but in the official name of Earth, they still prefer to use the obviously derogatory term Mine Thieves rather than the legendary word "pirates" to describe these selfish creatures. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It is clearly stated in the Earth Pact that all resources discovered in the colonization and exploration of the universe are unconditionally owned by all mankind. The development, excavation, gathering and gathering of any kind of mineral must be authorized by the Earth Council. Even mineral stars and colonies owned by discoverers and pioneers under the law must pay taxes.
The mine thieves are different, they are cancer cells in the universe, unwilling to make efforts to clean up and exploit, but just frantically plundering all the resources they can.
The Earth Pact, the Code of Ethics, the interests of humanity, simply do not exist in the minds of the miners, who only value money. As long as they have money, they do all kinds of evil.
The laws of the earth are a piece of waste paper to them. As soon as they found the Mineral Star, they would immediately swoop over like locusts, bypassing the fortress, avoiding the fortress, evading the guards, going deep into the barren land, risking being discovered by the military and being strangled by the beasts, stealing every piece of ore they could see.
A planet like A171 has not been discovered for a long time, and the first round of cleaning has not yet been carried out, and the mine poists should not have appeared.
However, in recent years, the number of mining thieves has increased, the equipment has become more and more advanced, the attitude has become more and more rampant, and the competition between them has also been very fierce. Coupled with the fact that the military's defenses are getting tighter and tighter, and their "business" is not easy to do, it is difficult to say that they will not take risks.
Xue Zhongzhi's judgment is very reasonable, and any other person would make the same judgment. At the same time, Rear Admiral Liu Hanbo on the mothership also made the same judgment, and everyone thought of going together.
The head only probed for a moment and quickly retracted, which made Xue Zhongzhi's judgment even more certain, it must be a mine thief, otherwise he would not be so panicked.
So, the next question is simple: to catch or not to catch?
The mine thieves are all vicious outlaws, and their ships are not as advanced as the military, but after various illegal modifications, they have firepower that cannot be underestimated. Not to mention that these mine thieves are all masters of martial arts, and if they don't have the guts to wander around the universe.
However, one of the duties of the military is to catch the poachers and uphold the authority of the Earth Pact and the interests of all mankind. Moreover, the task of the Pioneer Company is to explore and clear a safe area, and if the whereabouts of these mine thieves are not clarified, the word "safe" cannot be said.
"Up. Xue Zhongzhi waved his hand: "The assault group is pursuing in front, the shield soldiers and heavy weapons are keeping up, the protective soldiers, pay attention to the surrounding movements." ”
Although it happened suddenly, Xue Zhongzhi's response was methodical and there were no mistakes.
But there is a premise for all this, and that is the judgment of identity.
Sometimes, it's not that people don't try hard enough and fail, it's just that they have embarked on the wrong path in the first place, such as "going into the wrong business" or "marrying the wrong man".
In life, there is still a chance to correct mistakes. On the battlefield, such opportunities are too few, and when a mistake is made, the enemy will not give any chance!
In the assault group, there is a soldier named Sun Qi, because of his young age, everyone calls him Xiao Sun.
Among all the soldiers in the pioneer company, Xiao Sun seems very ordinary, his dream is to complete the five-year service period as soon as possible, receive a large amount of retirement allowance, go back to the small county town on the earth to buy a few storefront houses, confess to the girl he had a crush on, get married and have children and live a happy life.
But what Xiao Sun didn't expect was that his meager dream was no longer possible, but in another way, he realized the value of his life. His name will go down in history and become an indelible mark in the history of earthlings.
As a member of the assault team, after receiving the order, Xiao Sun took the lead and rushed towards the huge rock.
It is said that it is a rock, but it is a lonely "mountain" that towers like a pillar, and because it is so big, you can't see what is behind the stone.
But Xiao Sun didn't think much about it, he just completed the order seriously.
When Xiao Sun was the first to rush behind the rock, his originally extremely fast footsteps suddenly stopped, although everyone could not see Xiao Sun's expression through the combat uniform, but in hindsight, he must have been shocked.
It's a pity that no one knows what he was thinking at the time, and it will never be possible to know.
Xue Zhongzhi followed behind, and only had time to see Xiao Sun's stop, and when he was about to ask what happened through the transmitter, he saw a scene that he will never forget.
Xiao Sun's body was like stepping on a landmine, and was thrown up by some kind of force, and the strong defensive combat uniform was easily torn apart like waste paper, and the flesh and bones inside were squeezed into a ball.
A drop of blood splashed far away, and it actually splashed on Xue Zhongzhi's helmet mask, so scarlet......
This is the famous "first blood" in history!
Later historians have exaggerated this incident a lot, and there are more than 10,000 online novels that have been extended and expanded from this incident alone, especially the novel "The Age of National Evolution" written by an author with the pen name "Black Soil Smoke" is the most exciting, but that's all for later......
Xiao Sun was killed, Xue Zhongzhi didn't have time to think about it, and immediately ordered the whole team to enter the battle state.
He hurried forward, to go to the front line to see which gang of mine thieves was so fierce and cruel. Is it "reincarnation" or "alliance of evildoers"?
In the few seconds that Xue Zhongzhi rushed over, battles occurred one after another, the cold light of the knife, the sharp sound of the sword, and the gunfire suppressed by the firepower "suddenly" shook people's eardrums.
Xue Zhongzhi saw that Yang Wu of the assault group was swept diagonally by a knife light, his upper body had fallen to the ground, and his lower body was still running forward according to inertia, running a distance of five or six meters before falling......
He also saw Qiao Xinchuan of the heavy weapons group being approached by a black shadow, and before he could even turn the muzzle of the laser cannon, his chest was torn open.
The number of opponents is unknown, the identity is unknown, and the strength is extremely strong! This was Xue Zhongzhi's first judgment, and then he saw a black shadow rushing towards him, and the fiery red long knife in his hand bloomed with a scorching light in full swing, and the head was cut off!
The "Snort......" video was projected here, and it came to an abrupt end.
In the arena, there was silence.
This video broadcast in the news is a hologram of the official "First Blood" incident, and at this moment, in all corners of the earth, wherever there is a television picture, everyone's heart is heavy.
Seeing the picture and hearing the broadcast are two completely different concepts, and that scene completely shocked everyone.
It turns out that it is another civilization, and moreover, the enemy!
