Xingwu hegemony

Chapter 79
After being elected as the heads of the mercenary company, the first thing Yu Fei and Fatty Ma did was to rectify military discipline. They also deducted more than half of the commission they got for this mission. One thing is to drink and find women, but after Yu Fei and Fatty Ma got the money, they immediately started buying arms, repairing spaceships, and unifying the uniforms of the mercenaries
Both Yu Fei and Fatty Ma are experts in munitions procurement. Now there are many interstellar munitions suppliers. They bought 100 complete sets of space marines light and heavy mechs, and purchased [-] tanks, all-terrain armored assault vehicles and wolf spray trains. Wait for heavy equipment.

After getting the ammunition, the next step is training, otherwise even the best weapons will be useless. Yu Fei and Fatty Ma will take turns to lead them to practice in the way of a regular army.In the first few days, everyone was not used to it. They were used to drinking until midnight and then sleeping until they woke up naturally, but Yu Fei rushed to the barracks early in the morning and kicked all the sleeping mercenaries out of bed up.

Originally, the Blackstone Mercenary Company was stationed on a space station on the outskirts of the solar system. Yu Fei worried that there would be too many people here, so he used half of the commission this time to buy a space station on an asteroid. Special transportation is required, but at least the confidentiality is better, so there is no need to worry about being recognized.

After a few days of practice, these mercenaries, who were no different from bandits, finally looked like soldiers. Then Yu Fei began to train them in combat skills. Fatty Ma picked some people to teach them how to operate and shoot artillery .

In the mercenary team of about 300 people, some of the poor quality were driven away by Yu Fei, and some who were afraid of suffering were exhausted, and there were less than 200 people left, but Yu Fei didn't mind at all, because he deeply I deeply understand the truth that the capacity of a wooden barrel depends on the shortest piece of wood, and the pulling force that an iron chain can bear depends on its weakest link.

For a group, especially a military group, the black sheep must be resolutely eliminated, otherwise the combat effectiveness of the entire army will be greatly reduced.

After more than a month of Yu Fei’s intensive training, Black Meteor received another order—to develop a new planet.

Developing new planets is also one of the more common mission forms in the mercenary circle, but it is usually handed over to a powerful large mercenary company, and this time the client is the same interstellar energy company last time, who may be escorting and dealing with interstellar In the pirate battle, Yu Fei and others left a deep impression on them, so they signed a mission contract with them this time. Thomas joked that this was probably the first repeat customer of the black meteorite.

"Whether I'm a repeat customer or a new customer, I'll take good care of you and cheer me up," Yu Fei said when he called his staff into the conference room for a meeting.

"Understood, master!" All the mercenaries shouted in unison.

"En." Yu Fei nodded, expressed his satisfaction with the mental state of these people, and then began to introduce the task situation.

The target planet is numbered Kepler-62e, located in the Lyra constellation 1200 light-years away, its mass is 1 times heavier than that of the earth, and it takes 6 days to circle its sun. The star "Kepler-122" has five planets, There is also a companion star called Kepler-62f. The detectors of the energy company have found liquid water on these two planets, which means that they may be transformed into planets suitable for human habitation.

The mercenary company has three main missions:

1. To be stationed on Kepler-62 in advance, to establish a ground base, to search for and eliminate the native creatures on the planet that may pose a threat to humans

2. Protect the staff of the energy company from carrying out exploration work smoothly
3. Establish a defense line to prevent harassment and robbery by interstellar pirates
Judging from this contract, it should be a long-term project, and the other party is a large energy company. It can be said that this order is a stable source of income, so Yu Fei attaches great importance to it and will not accept any orders for the time being. get ready.

The energy company provided the spacecraft and fuel, and Yu Fei and others set off as the vanguard with a dozen staff members from the energy company.

This time on the spaceship, the people from the Blackstone Mercenary Company no longer spend their days and nights, but go to the spaceship gym to exercise their physical fitness in a serious manner, or get together to study the plan, and the people from the energy company are very uncomfortable. I'm starting to wonder if it's the same company.

After several space jumps, the spacecraft reached outside the atmosphere of Kepler 62. First, several drones were sent down to sample the air and temperature. Yu Fei and Fatty Ma stood at the window of the spacecraft, quietly Quietly looking at this equally quiet planet.

Looking down from a high altitude, you can see that there are many blue and red dots on the planet, like gemstones inlaid on the ground. At first, Yu Fei thought it was a lake. The different algae plants in the lake turned the lake into a lake. Different colors. It wasn't until the drone sent back the picture that Yu Fei discovered that there were two completely different lakes, one was composed of water, and the other was a magma lake formed entirely of liquid acidic magma.

There are many similar lakes. It seems that the crust of this planet has just entered a stable period, or it has suffered a series of devastating impacts in the past tens of thousands of years, leaving so many terrifying deep pits on the ground.

Like the formation process of the earth, life comes from the water, and there are no other ground creatures on this planet, so Yu Fei decided to take people to the lake to have a look. After all, there is a clause in the contract "to find and destroy the creatures that threaten human beings." native species of

Several drones sampled and returned from different places, and the results were processed by the computer and handed over to Yu Fei. Judging from these parameters, the oxygen in the atmosphere can be breathed directly by people, and the temperature difference between day and night is not too big, which is unexpected Among them, after all, there are such a large area of ​​lakes to absorb heat and release heat, so a relatively mild ecosystem has been formed.

"Let's go, brothers, go to the lake and see if there are any big monsters." Fatty Ma sat in a modified submersible and poked his head out of the cab. He was used to driving vehicles on land. It was the first time to drive underwater equipment, so I was a little excited.

Fatty Ma led a few people to explore the water, and Yu Fei led the infantry to observe on the shore. If the confirmation was correct, the spacecraft would send engineering robots down to start building the ground base.

The landing craft loaded thirty infantrymen in the cabin, and hung the submersible under the belly of the aircraft with the probe claws, and then took off, staying outside the atmosphere for half a minute, adjusting the engine power, deceleration equipment, etc. according to the planet's After the gravitational force is adjusted, the landing spacecraft carried these fifty people and flew into the atmosphere...
