Chapter 142, New Troops

Gu Hang stood up, stretched out his hands and made a downward motion.

The agents were honestly quiet.

"I understand the urgency in your hearts, and I am confident that you will make outstanding contributions to the prosperity of Junk Town in the future."

Hearing this tone-setting speech, the hearts of those agents were much more calm.

With this tone, then everything will be fine, which means that the Governor will still use them in the future, and he is not too worried about falling into the fate of those powerful people in Fuxing City.

In fact, Gu Hang really didn't plan to do that, the situation in the two places was not the same, and these property agents in the garbage town did not resist him, but just now, they quickly stood in line, acted quickly, and helped.

In this case, of course, Gu Hang did not need to carry out any major cleansing in the garbage town, as long as the opponents were dealt with.

There were a lot of people killed in Fuxing City, although it was necessary and immediately eliminated the stubborn diseases in the city that were not conducive to governance, but when the news spread to the wasteland, it would indeed cause some changes in some places that would have been smoothly surrendered.

But Gu Hang actually didn't care too much about that.

There is nothing wrong with facing some resistance, if it is really a comprehensive takeover, then in these survivor settlements one by one in the wasteland, I don't know how many evil and crooked tumors, vampires lying on the settlements, will have to find a way to deal with them afterwards after being included in the alliance's system. After all, there is still some evidence to be found in the fight against corruption, and it is better to settle the matter in the name of a traitor when the territory is recovered.

It can only be said that there are losses and gains.

If you can't clean it up in the garbage town, the follow-up treatment will definitely be more complicated than in Fuxing City. The surrogates who remain have an intricate but firm grip on the industries that were theirs. Corruption, failure to fully mobilize social productive forces, and resistance to the innovation and promotion of follow-up policies...... These situations are inevitable.

However, in addition to the fact that they did bow their heads and surrender quickly enough and were not easy to start, the first and most important point was that the situation forced them.

The most important problem facing garbage town at the moment is definitely not the problem of governance, but the problem of war.

The threat of the green-skinned orcs is far from being lifted.

Now, Gu Hang really doesn't have time to mess around with these agents.

In a word, after setting the tone and calming the minds of these people, Gu Hang then took the opportunity to say the strategy he was going to implement next in the garbage town:

"Junk Town is undoubtedly at war now, and there is no way to win a war with the scattered and uncontrollable system of the past. Now, I declare that Junk Town has completely entered the wartime system and implemented military administration. Except for the production of daily necessities and military production, all other production and business activities shall be stopped; All residents of the garbage town should stay at home, and the city will be under full martial law; All the necessities of the population will be distributed by the Military Logistics Department under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Tadius. ”

The agents who heard Gu Hang's announcement looked at each other.

This kind of strict management has never been seen in garbage towns before, and they seem to be at a loss.

Some people instinctively feel that this is not right.

But no one dared to speak.

Gu Hang paused and continued: "Just now, I had people record what you said. Let each of you take over the inheritances and those who are attached to them. You'll be temporarily working in the Military Logistics Department to help Lieutenant Colonel Tadius and keep order in town. Your performance during this time will determine what kind of treatment you will receive in the future when Garbage Town calms down. I guarantee that if your rank can reach C5 or even B, your personal income and living standards will be better than in the past, and your power will be greater than in the past. ”

This seems to be another reassuring pill for them.

Those of them who had planned to defect to the Governor before had also learned more or less about the policies of the New Alliance in Fuxing City. They know that there is no one in Fuxing City who can get A-level treatment at present; There are very few people who can get B-level treatment.

If the E-level treatment is the subsistence line, the D-level treatment is already a good life that many wastelanders dream of. You have to be skilled workers, professionals, and middle and low-level managers to get this level of treatment. C-level treatment can only be enjoyed by senior government officials, top managers of factories, and senior technical experts in various fields.

According to the Governor, they worked so hard that they even had a chance to get a B-rank, and it is said that the female lord of Fuxing City, who was actually only a minister, Ms. Osena, was only a B3 in her current rank.

Of course, they can also clearly realize that the governor's words are not only reassuring, but also a pie. The cake is very fragrant, but if you want to eat it, I'm afraid it's not that easy.

But there is always a head.

Seeing that these agents were aroused, Gu Hang also smiled.

With the help of these land snakes, things will indeed be much easier.

……

Wartime system, military management, material rationing...... If the three magic weapons are thrown away, Gu Hang will not be too worried about the order of the garbage town.

This work was almost entirely lost to Tadius.

The commander of the 2nd Infantry Division, from the beginning of the battle to the present, and in the subsequent battles, I am afraid that he has not had any opportunity to directly participate in military command.

But his duties are obviously much more important than a mere military commander.

And Gu Hang also believes that he can do well.

After all, this is the only SR-level talent under his command.

After determining that there would be no major problems with the order of the city, Gu Hang immediately shifted his attention to the military.

The threat of the greenskins is far from subsided.

The two regiments of the 2nd Infantry Division, after only resting in the town for one night, were about to set off again.

Truth be told, they're tired.

From Fuxing City to Junk Town, the original 6-7 day march, Gu Hang and his troops arrived in less than four days. After traveling hundreds of miles a day, most of the troops came on foot, but when they arrived outside the garbage town, many of the troops had already reached the limit of their physical strength, and they had to fight another battle before they could enter.

It's also a shame that this battle is easy to fight, and those adventurers' will to fight is very weak, and it will be broken when touched, otherwise it will be really a bit troublesome.

Although he only rested for one night, he had to go to the front line to fight, but there was no way.

It's just such a night, and Perbow, who is on the front line, has repeatedly received bad news.

Those green-skinned orcs, knowing that the defensive line constructed by the 1st Brigade and 1st Battalion was not easy to fight, quickly reversed the direction of the attack and began to surprise in other directions.

At this moment, there are only more than 50,000 adventurers who are still fighting on the front line. A large number of teams that were previously defeated and retreated were still regrouping, and they didn't have time to go up.

The defensive line they formed was so mistaken that Perbov had to bring in two companies of mechanized infantry to fight the fire along a line of more than 60 kilometers.

In the ruins of the tower, no more than in the wilderness, the road conditions are very complicated. Even if the engineering units have tried to clear a convenient road for support, there are often times when rescue is not available.

There have even been cases where the enemy's defenses have been breached, and a large number of greenskins have infiltrated and ambushed the teams that went to support.

If it weren't for the fact that the Edifier V-infantry chariot in the company was really powerful, something would really happen.

In general, it was still that Perbov had too few troops in his hands and could not directly command all the adventurer teams, resulting in his manpower being clumsy on this dozens of kilometers of front.

The 1st Regiment and Division Headquarters of the 2nd Division remained in the garbage town and suppressed the order of the town; The 2nd Regiment and the 3rd Regiment, these two infantry regiments combined with almost 4,000 men, were on the front line.

A unified command post has been established in Junk Town, where all Alliance troops, including those adventurers, will receive orders from the city to carry out military missions.

With these 4,000 regular troops, the problems at the front will be alleviated to a certain extent.

Moreover, what is more important is the three artillery battalions, plus the firepower directly under the division headquarters, and counting the artillery of the Perbov battalion, there must be a total of hundreds of cannons.

The artillery was scattered and arranged in many artillery positions, with a firing range of about 20 kilometers, to cover as much as possible the 60-kilometer-long position, so that the front line could immediately launch a strike.

Moreover, this logistics support is also very reliable.

Thirty trucks with the Second Division came with artillery shells, a total of 4,500 heavy artillery shells.

This is to pull all the shell stocks in Fuxing City, plus all the production capacity of Weixing City in the past half month.

But in reality, you have to save a little.

It's just enough for a hundred artillery pieces to fire dozens of rounds, and if you really shoot these heavy guns as quickly as if they didn't need money, and cover them with firepower, they can be fired up in two hours.

However, the car of the logistics department has already been driving back, and the military industrial system on the side of Weixing City has also been ordered to start work at full speed. The production of all kinds of shells and bullets is the next priority.

Moreover, a new military production line is already under construction, and when the population is enough and the raw materials are enough, the explosion of production capacity is not too big a problem.

But even so, the situation at the front can only be said to be alleviated.

Four thousand people, that's not enough to fill a sixty-kilometer front.

The two regiments, with the assistance of some armed adventurers who were still on the front line, could only be responsible for a front of about ten kilometers or so each.

There are also a large number of gaps.

Not to mention, it's just defense.

If you want to attack, what to do?

Artillery can inflict terrible damage on the green-skinned orcs who dare to attack. But when you attack and the enemy has fortifications to resist, you can't just bomb it. Especially in the environment of urban ruins, those green skins hide in the ruins, bunkers, fortifications are everywhere, and the lethality of artillery shells will be greatly reduced.

Even, under the ruinous terrain, tanks and armored vehicles may not be easy to drive.

Don't look at what Perbov reported in previous battles, two armored vehicles, a tank, and two infantry squads killed thirty or fifty greenskins at the cost of five to ten casualties, but that was a defensive operation.

Try to play offense?

The whole battle situation is more similar to urban street fighting.

In the end, it still depends on people after the explosion.

Can you do it just by relying on the 2nd Infantry Division?

It's a bit difficult, the combat environment of the city ruins can easily be pulled within a few tens of meters, or even close to the face, even if it is a regular soldier of the T5 level, it is a complete disadvantage to the green-skinned orcs.

The total number of green skins on the opposite side may be close to 10,000, and if it is an offensive operation, it may not be enough to fight the 2nd Division.

In this situation, Gu Hang had two plans.

Isn't the problem in firepower and numbers? Let's start with these two problems and solve them.

In terms of firepower, the firepower of the 155 howitzer is indeed the strongest firepower that Gu Hang can take out under conventional forces. It is more than enough to fight defensively, and it is true that attacking does not have the effect of completely annihilating the greenskins hiding in the ruins.

But in addition to the firepower he mastered, Gu Hang could also ask for foreign help.

The 155 howitzer is not good, then the macro cannon that cannot be described in terms of caliber, how to say? Orbital strikes from space, capable of providing tremendous fire support.

And the second problem, which is the problem of troops.

The regular army in Gu Hang's hands was indeed not enough to cope with this war, at most it was satisfied to maintain the battle line, but it was unable to advance. But those adventurers who are active on the battlefield are a good pool of troops.

They now seem to be unable to pull their hips, their equipment is poor, their discipline is poor, their organization is poor, their training levels are uneven, and their morale is low......

However, under the baptism of the [Bingpai] system, the problems of discipline, organization, and training level can be solved.

Morale issues...... This one is a bit of a hassle. But fortunately, he was prepared before he came, and Tadius cultivated some seedlings of the company's political commissars to prepare for the explosion.

Before the Zhongsi Academy was launched, the political commissar who was temporarily pulled out was not very reliable. Although the training time is longer than when they were assigned to the Old Alliance Legion when they first took Fuxing City, the army composed of these adventurers may be even worse than the Old Alliance army in terms of ideological consciousness.

The former used to be from the regular army, while the latter was too uneven.

I can only hope that the training effect of the soldier card panel and the means of configuring the political commissar can be pulled up as much as possible.

As for the level of equipment, there is a preliminary solution.

Of course, Gu Hang had expected the situation in Garbage Town.

In addition to pulling enough logistical supplies, including bullets, artillery shells, and military rations, the baggage trucks sent by the logistics department also brought 5,000 sets of individual equipment, as well as supporting company and platoon-level weapons, machine guns, mortars, and rocket launchers.

Gu Hang planned to recruit five thousand people from this group of adventurers to form a reinforced group.

The source of this team, Gu Hang also has a set goal.

Beast Slayer.

There are two reasons, one is that among the adventurer teams in Garbage Town, if there is any team that he can look at, it is only the team called the Beast Slayer Group.

This statement comes from the report of Perbof.

Another reason why he was eyeing this group was that he saw the [Event] interface flickering slightly in the system interface.

After Gu Hang clicked on it, he saw an event that could be activated.

Event Activated: Green Skin Threat

[The green-skinned orcs that inexplicably appeared on the planet have grown into a threat to be reckoned with in a few years. Just as they were about to destroy Junk Town, your troops arrived on the scene. But the danger is not over, and the Greenskins' attack continues. 】

[Phase 1 Goal: Defend Junk Town to ensure that it remains under your control until the Greenskins retreat.] 】

[Event Reward: T5 Additional Class Training Option - Beast Slayer]

[Beast Slayer: A specially trained infantry unit that has completed T5 level training, and can further undergo specialized training for green-skinned orcs to become a Beast Slayer.] The Beast Slayer troops have mastered the experience and skills of fighting the greenskins, and with the mysterious blessing, they have a weak physical strength to strengthen against the greenskins. 】

[Training price: per 1 bounty/100 people]

[Note: There is a special unit that, in the case of a serious lack of equipment, has learned some special skills in the long-term confrontation with the green-skinned orcs, and has the potential of the 'Beast Slayer Group'. When they are trained to T5 or above, they will automatically receive the trait of the additional class 'Beast Slayer'. 】

It was this news that made Gu Hang very interested in the beast slaughtering group.

First of all, it's the event itself, and it's a bit of a surprise to him that the Greenskins will be activated into an event itself, but it's certainly a good thing.

It's different from the event of the Immortal Checkmate. The chain of events of the Immortal Bird Warband, which was probably not related to him, was directed in a direction related to him. But for this kind of thing to be activated, it takes Gift Points.

And now, this kind of action that belongs to him activates the event, but there is no need to spend additional Gift Points.

Activating events is certainly a good thing.

The defensive battle in Garbage Town was originally meant to be fought, and after more [events], it is equivalent to more rewards.

Moreover, the goal of this incident is basically in line with Gu Hang's plan - to defend first and then talk about attacking.

The preparations for the counterattack are far from ready, and since the defense has an advantage, it must be defended first. It's best if the greenskins hit the prepared line of defense and hit their heads to break the bloodstream. Gu Hang just wanted to turn this line of defense into a flesh mill, and the more living power that consumed the green skins, the better.

As for the reward of the event, Gu Hang was a little surprised.

Additional Classes...... It's a new mechanic.

It means that after the T1-T5 level training in the past, you can also spend additional gift points for special training to achieve the effect of building special troops?

The characteristics of the 'Beast Slayer' are closely related to the current war.

If all the members are equipped with the characteristics of the 'Beast Slayer Group', the advantage can be further magnified in the face of monsters like the green-skinned orcs.

Not to mention, the things mentioned in the notes of the event.

A special team with the potential of the 'Beast Slayer Regiment', is it not the Beast Slaughter Regiment itself or what?

According to the notes, as long as the team that is still on the front line is called the Beast Slayer Regiment, and trains it to T5 level, they will automatically have the Beast Slayer trait.

That adventure group had almost six thousand people, which was equivalent to directly saving Gu Hang sixty points of gift for additional training.

And it just so happened that the extra individual equipment in Gu Hang's hand was only 5,000 sets, and it was good to arm them first, as the first army to be incorporated and reorganized from among the adventurers.
