"Wow, so many people." Rissen's eyes were a little straight, he didn't expect there to be so many like-minded colleagues.

In the open space below the transport ship Landman, there was already a queue of recruits ready to board the ship, although Risen knew that he must not be the only one who was a logistics professional, but he didn't expect that there would be so many, and the people waiting to board the ship were lined up for hundreds of meters, of course, not all of them were mechanic majors, there were also soldiers with other specialties such as warehouse management, transportation, supply, engineering and other majors.

Risen knows that the recruit third company has a good training performance, so except for Risen is a mechanic major, no one has been assigned to the logistics major, and those who may go to the logistics professional guys have been eliminated by Sergeant Boeira in advance, and the rest of the people have either gone to the Starfleet or the Marine Army, and even a few have signed up for the starfighter pilot selection, all of which are promising careers, Risen faintly regretted that he knew that he was the only one, and he should not have gone to any logistics support and was given to the bureau to learn what mechanic major, There are a lot of people here at the moment, and none of them know anyone.

The queue moved towards the door of the transport ship at the speed of a snail's movement, and after a long time it was Risson's turn, and he immediately handed the report to a captain standing at the door, the captain glanced at the report and found Risson's name on the portable electronic terminal in his hand, "Rissen. Nigol, sixth deck, eleven cabins. ”

"Yes, sir."

Two days later, the ship took them aboard a satellite on the planet Kaldor, Cauver IV, where one of the Empire's largest technical colleges, the Freynoch Institute of Technology, was part of the Logistics Support and Replenishment Bureau, where Risen began a three-month period of professional study with recruits from other barracks who had come to study mechanics.

After the start of the professional study, Risen soon suffered from the mechanic major, which was not so easy to deal with, and Risen had to learn basic maintenance theory, introduction to ion engines, basic structure of starfighters, advanced mathematics, electronic control, and an overview of energy shields...... In order to make up for the gap, Ruisen had to pay more than ordinary people, and soaked in the classroom or library when he had nothing to do, with little free time. Risen sometimes can't help but think, oh my God, are they teaching the wrong major, I'm in maintenance, how do you think their posture is asking me to design an interstellar fighter, are those guys around me all from Ph.D. majors? How can I learn so much in three months?

However, to Riseen's later peace of mind, the Fellanoke Academy was not mistaken, and they also knew that these conscripts would not have too high academic qualifications, so what they were taught were some overviews, principles, and some of the most basic things, just let them understand, and they were not required to go deeper, and on the other hand, they were much more important to their actual hands-on ability, which Risen had an invisibly advantage, and the experience of operating mining machines and other various machinery in the Heidelberg mines made his practical hands-on ability relatively strong, In simulated maintenance training, faults can also be found and troubleshot faster than other trainees.

Three months passed in a flash, and Risson's professional training was finally over, and although his written grades were barely passing, he received an excellent score in the final Starfighter simulation maintenance and troubleshooting tests, which made him quite satisfied, and the only regret was that he was too busy to be a little distant from the others he was studying with, and he was not able to build the same friendships as Crawford, Cap, Buddy, and others. Where are these guys now? Risen began to miss these friends.

After the end of the professional training, Risen received his first assignment to the Cardoso space station in the Almeron system, this space station is a small second-line base, belonging to the rear base, which is not important, but because Almeron is relatively close to the border galaxy bordering the Federation, therefore, the empire still stationed a wing of Banshee starfighters and gladius attack aircraft in this base, a total of seventy-two starfighters, and the 1142nd Mechanic Battalion is responsible for the maintenance of these fighters, What Ruissen is going to is Company B of the 1142nd Mechanic Battalion.

"Private First Class of the Galactic Imperial Army, Rissen. Nigaul was ordered to come and report, sir. Risen was in good spirits, and stood up and down after saluting in a standard manner, the first impression is very important, Risen estimated that he would spend a long time here in the future, he didn't want to make a bad impression on the chief when he met for the first time, but what did the elephant smell like in the room??

"Rest, soldier, welcome to Cardoso, I'm Major Layton, the battalion commander of the 1142nd Mechanized Battalion, and this is Captain Alex, the commander of Company B, and you will be working under him in the future, understand?" A major officer sitting behind the table gave Risen a brief introduction to himself and the captain officer beside him.

"Yes, sir." Risen looked at the tall, stout man with blond hair to the left of the Battalion Commander in Leiden, and the captain nodded to him in greeting. Well? Is this my future direct officer? Ruisson muttered in his heart, although he looked handsome, he didn't seem to be very trimmed, his beard was messy, the military uniform looked crumpled, and several buttons were not buttoned, and as for the military hat, well, it seemed that something crumpled in his hand was quite the same as the color of the military hat.

"Alright, Alex, that's all for today, take your little ones with you, and remember to bring more when you have time next time." The major seemed to lick his lips when he said this, and he looked like he was still unsatisfied.

"Don't worry, yours are missing?" The captain jumped up from his chair, stretched out his military hat in his hand, and walked out of the door without even saluting, and beckoned to Risen as he went, "Go, little one, come with me, and I'll take you to the station." ”

This surprised Risen to the surprise of not being respectful in front of his superiors, and the Major didn't seem to care much about the punishment of military discipline in Lodhien and Felenok.

Walking out of the battalion commander's office, Risen noticed another thing that surprised him even more, because of his close proximity to the captain, the smell he had smelled in the room before was clearer, it was ..... Alcohol??? Thinking of the previous conversation between the two commanders, Risen felt that his brain was a little bad, and the company commander and the battalion commander were in the office..... Drink??

This is not to say that Imperial soldiers are not allowed to drink alcohol, but it is strictly forbidden to drink openly in the office during duty hours.

The captain saw the tip of Risson's nose twitch a few times, and suddenly became stunned, how could he not understand what was going on in his heart.

"Relax, relax, um..... what's your name?"

"Rise. Nigaul, sir. Risen couldn't help but laugh, he had just introduced it a minute ago, and he forgot about it when he turned his head.

"Listen, Risson, I don't care what your previous instructor taught you, but when you get here, you're my subordinate, and my subordinate will listen to me and follow my rules, understand?"

"Understood, sir, uh..... But, sir, your rules? Risen hesitated.

"Listen," said the captain with a sly smile, as he walked, "my rules, that is, no rules. ”

"No rules?" Risen didn't turn around in his mind twice, and stammered, "I..... I don't understand. ”

"I say, little one, let me ask you, what is our mechanic company for?" The captain may have seen too much, and he didn't think it was strange, and patiently explained it to Riseen.

Hehe, this doesn't bother me, Risen is glad that he hasn't forgotten the things in the academy, "The duty of the mechanic company, responsible for the starfighter ....."

"Stop, stop." Risen was interrupted by the captain before he could start, "Simply put, it's for starfighters, right?" ”

"Uh, that's right." Ressen reluctantly.

"Isn't that simple, as long as you serve those flying things well, make sure they can attack and fight, then it's over, as for the rest of the time, whatever you like, do whatever you like, play whatever you like, as long as you don't kill, force X, rob, steal, don't make trouble for everyone." The captain persuaded "earnestly", and then muttered in a low voice, "Even if you want to be strong, you can't find a partner, unless you are glass." ”

"This ...... All right? Risen thought to himself, is there really such a good thing?

"What's not to do." The captain replied impatiently, "What's the point of not staying in this broken space station?" It's such a big point, where can you run? There are no residents, no supermarkets, no women, no restaurants, no nightclubs, the food is garbage, the place where I live is like a slum, I rely on the fuck, serving here is a waste of youth......" The captain said more and more angrily with the smell of alcohol, only to hear Risen stunned.

After a moment of anger, the captain continued nonchalantly, "All in all, this is the case, it is isolated from the outside world, there is nothing but us and those who can fly, and they may also go outside on patrol, but we can only stay here honestly, the supply ships come regularly once a week, but every time nothing good comes, we pick up the leftovers of others, hehe, you will know later." ”

........

"Our B Company's task is to carry out daily maintenance and maintenance of the Banshee starfighters of the 17th and 19th squadrons, I have seen your achievements in Ferranoke, these jobs are very simple for you, the current fighters are modular design, if there is any problem, just run the troubleshooting program, find out the problematic parts, and then go to the warehouse to get a new spare part to replace it, these should be familiar to you, your ground crew leader is Jack. Sergeant Russell, you're right to listen to him, he's probably playing with guns in the training center right now, and you'll meet him. ”

........

"There are a few places you have to pay attention to, the officers' club and the pilot's room are not for you to go, you can go to the soldiers' club, where you can play billiards, play video games, play flying targets, and if you are interested in inferior wine, you can also go there to try it; There's also a training center in the base, if you want to play with the energy assault rifle and practice your marksmanship, go there and try it, by the way, you have to keep an eye out for the guys who can fly, they also go there often, these guys have a bad temper, they often cause trouble, and they especially like to find those new guys to get angry, so if you see a black uniform, you can stay away, but they don't usually go to the soldier's activity room. ”

........

"Wow, this is a Banshee Starfighter, sir, I've seen pictures of it before." The two of them walked into a large cabin as they spoke, and Rayson's eyes lit up, where a black light of fighter jets lined up neatly in the hangar, and more than a dozen people were circling around these fighters, and Risen had seen a real starfighter for the first time, all he had seen in Ferrenok before were simulators.

"That's right, this is the first host library, it's directly connected to the take-off channel, and that's where you will work in the future." The captain said casually.

"Well, is it a simulator?" Risen asked, pointing to a few cabin-shaped objects on the right side of the hangar.

"Yes, the MN-6 flight training simulator can be used to simulate the training of the pilots of the Banshee and the Gladiator, but no one has used it for a long time, and those guys have real fighters to go for a ride outside, who will use this?" The captain half-jokingly said, "A lot of people have tried, if you have nothing to do, you can also try it up there and see if you have what it takes to be a starfighter pilot." ”

"Really?" Risen glanced at the blue and white flight training simulator again, "I'll try it when I get a chance, sir." ”
