This kind of long-haired wildebeest is a wild animal found locally on the planet Yaochi.
Their appearance is similar to the wildebeest in the African wilderness on Earth, but they have thick long hair like a yak, but they are a whole circle larger than a moose. They have a gentle temperament and are easy to be domesticated and raised. Their staple food
It is shrubs and moss, but its meat and milk yields are also extremely high. As long as some highly nutritious alfalfa and ground shellfish bones are added to the feed, it will become visibly enlarged and swollen. It is indeed a kind of food.
A nearly perfect animal.
Perhaps it is precisely because this planet is a "holy planet" that is rich in products and full of vitality that such wild animals have emerged that perfectly meet the requirements of animal husbandry without being cultivated.
...Of course, whether this thing is really wild or not is still highly debatable.
Considering that the entire over-prosperous "Devil's Labyrinth Star Field" is very likely to have been transformed by the ancient enlightened civilization with power that is completely incomprehensible to modern people. This problem may be a religious problem rather than a biological problem.
Problem.
Of course, these are not the main points.
Regardless of this, because the soldiers of the 38th Division who were born as Shamin herdsmen discovered such livestock in the wilderness on the other side of the mountain, Marshal Li and the soldiers and civilians of Galle also had ample supplies after successfully solving the ration problem.
Protein source.
The sergeant major of the sand people said that he had never seen such a fat, docile, and silly big animal in his life, and it was much easier to take care of than the big lizards in Xinyumen.
When the last week of December arrived, various good news came one after another.
The exploration team of the 38th Division sent intelligence. After exploring a large number of rich minerals, they also discovered kryptonite and fine gold veins in a natural cave not far from the coastline. The reserves are huge. The team members have exhausted their resources.
All means have been used to seal the entrance, and the ore samples are being returned.
In addition, Marshal Li's soldiers and civilians in Golla discovered a large-scale warm natural fishing ground on the shallow seabed less than a hundred kilometers away from the city. The beautiful corals walking in the fishing ground supported a series of islands like a pearl necklace.
. Huge schools of fish shuttled through it, turning certain special ores that exuded a life magnetic field onto the seabed, forming an eternal and prosperous ecological chain.
In addition, the large farms and orchards surrounding Marshal Li's Grad area all harvested their first bumper harvest this year.
In such an era of galactic exploration with prosperous "technology", it is not uncommon to grow crops for two or three seasons. However, staple food crops that can mature within a month are rarely grown in laboratories and advanced incubators.
appeared outside Pei Farm. But it turns out that in just over a month of growth cycle, the magical scenes of potatoes as big as watermelons, sweet potatoes as plump as zucchini, and people being able to enjoy the cool under the ears of wheat and rice appeared one after another in front of everyone.
Indeed, this cannot be explained by a so-called "high-yielding crop".
However, again, this is a religious issue rather than a biological issue, and it is really not an important issue for ordinary people. Therefore, although they know that it is still during the war, Marshal Li, the residents of Golla and the Third
The soldiers of the Eighteenth Division had simply held a grand celebration.
This is of course to welcome the arrival of the new year, but also to welcome the arrival of new life and new hope.
At the same time, twenty armed cargo ships belonging to the logistics department of the Community Expeditionary Fleet were handing over to a fellow patrol fleet in the DL33 system.
Akinayama Hachiman, who was on the armed freighter Old Man Verlaine, pushed up his glasses and said seriously to his colleagues behind the communication projection: "So, even if it is just for this celebration, I will definitely arrive at Yaochi before December 30.
.Horatio, please don’t worry, Mr. Yang, Daddy.”
Lieutenant Colonel Horatio Venn, who has officially served as the captain of the light cruiser Middlesex, is now on the bridge of his ship, rolling his eyes while condensing the current list, thinking that if I didn't know about your ship
What luck did you have, maybe you can actually believe it.
"3,500 AK individual ion cannons, 150 Type 107 mobile rail guns, and a batch of parts that can be replaced after high-intensity combat...the total number is correct. However, these weapons are directly from the Xinyumen active guard
It is directly allocated from the army and militia troops, right? Will it not affect the defense issues over there?"
Hachiman pushed up his glasses, hiding his "Who are you looking down on" look under the flat lenses, and said expressionlessly: "The advantages of these two weapons are not only high quality and low price, but also modularity and extreme simplification. Don't worry.
, this piece of equipment cannot match the monthly output of workshop No. 00 of Tulong Machinery Factory. This is because most of the trained skilled workers must first focus on construction."
Wayne thought to himself that the number of workshop No. 00 was quite imaginative.
"It's really a revolutionary weapon." Hachiman added seriously: "I think it's high quality, low price, strong and wear-resistant, easy to maintain, easy to replace, and easy to operate. This is the true return to the true meaning of weapons."
Before Horatio Venn said anything, Michiel Kent, who was also on the cruiser Middlesex, smiled with interest: "You think this kind of weapon is very suitable for your family's business?"
?”
"Our family is a private security and property management group that protects our family. But if you want to talk about the protective effect, it is true." Akinayama Hachiman's tone remained calm:
"It's you, Horatio, Michel, what's going on with that thing in your fleet?"
Akinayama Hachiman refers to a moribund and moribund Marauder battleship.
It can be seen that the main structure of this ship should be made up of parts of at least four ships, spliced together with thick pipes wrapped with meteorites. The overall style is very inconsistent, so it has formed a unique wasteland green skin style.
.Once you accept this setting, you may feel that it has a rough aesthetic.
However, considering the overly wide and full central part of the hull of this ship, this is probably not a battleship, but a so-called "work ship".
In the Predator's work ship sequence, this ship should be a small one, but visually it is four times as long as Horatio Venn's Middlesex, and twice as long as Akinayama Hachiman's Old Man Verlaine.
, can be regarded as a majestic giant ship. However, at this time, she was wrapped by the small battleships of the community and hovered dejectedly in the air, as if she was cornered by a group of Neolithic hunters and could only close her door.
A mammoth waiting to die.
Needless to say, this should be a trophy captured by the Community fleet while fighting on the front line.
Mihir smiled and said: "The power of this work ship has been damaged, but the equipment on it is still relatively intact. It is mainly zero element purification equipment and some precision ordnance processing equipment. Just park her in Yaochi
By the shallow sea, there is a large-scale factory."
He paused again: "This is Teacher Yang's idea. It is said that it is possible to reach a protracted war with the predators, and then we can prepare a front-line logistics base in the Devil's Star Territory in advance. Yaochi is the best choice. Because I discovered
After obtaining the mineral vein of the zero element, he even asked for a few psykers from Major General Mallowan to come and support him."
"And you." Wayne added.
Michiel Kent nodded: "Yes, there is me. After the ship arrives at Yaochi, the military defense will still be in charge of Brigadier General Schiller, the commander of the 38th Division. Naturally, Marshal Li will still be responsible for the municipal management of Golla. General Longba
.Simon and I served as deputies together, and both military and government affairs blossomed. After all, it was a period of military control, so everyone can understand it."
Well, who doesn’t know that Brigadier General Schiller, who is almost 70 years old this year, was parachuted in as a mascot, and at most occasionally played a little role in supervising the army. This is equivalent to over 10,000 people from the 38th Division.
Military power was completely entrusted to the hands of two school-level officers in their twenties.
"Heh, I thought this job was mine." Hachiman didn't find it strange at all.
"New Yumen can't do without you for the time being." Horatio Wayne laughed: "Teacher Yang said that Qiu Mingshan is a versatile military and political student, and staying in the rear is the most responsible thing for the entire country.
.”
"Simon is selecting young adults from the residents of the settlement to form an auxiliary force. After I teach them how to handle AK and 107, they will rush back as soon as possible." Akinayama Hachiman said in a serious tone: "With the current situation of Xinyumen
Meteorology can also lead to many careers."
Kent took a deep look at Hachiman and said quietly: "Let's talk about the 38th Division. These are the soldiers you brought out. When I communicated with other senior Marine Corps officials, they all felt that this was a very special force.
Weird team."
"I also find it very strange. The 38th Division now has eleven thousand people. Among them, there are seven thousand humans, three thousand sand people, five hundred Rumina and five hundred soldiers of other races.
Such a miscellaneous force, placed in the military order of the Empire and the Alliance, is completely a cannon fodder filling force. However, in the exercise, they did beat most of the Marine divisions on the head, even if they encountered that
A few ace masters can also fight back and forth."
Qiu Mingshan Hachiman shrugged: "However, you are wrong. I did not bring them out. If I must say it, they can only be regarded as the disciples of the new Yumen."
Kent showed a thoughtful expression, but Wayne simply said: "In other words, New Yumen can have a 38th Division. If you give them some time, there may be ten more?"
"Maybe even a hundred more." Hachiman sighed: "Horatio, Yu Lian said, you are just a red deer most of the time, but Ruo Shanlu's sense of smell in the military field is the sharpest among us.
one."
"Ma, red deer? How dare that guy say that to me?" Wayne was furious, as if he would dare to throw his white gloves when Yu Lian was in front of him.
You only listen to the first half of the sentence?
Akinayama Hachiman couldn't help but wanted to complain, but he finally let out a lukewarm sigh, took off his glasses, wiped them a little, and lowered his voice: "...Mihir, what happened on the front line?
?”
Wayne and Kent looked at each other. The latter showed a strange smile: "Hachiman, Yu Lian said that most of the time you are actually a happy-go-lucky person with little moral integrity and little motivation, but with your perception and intuition of changes in crises,
But he is also the best among us."
"I'm just having fun...it doesn't have to be that exaggerated, right? I obviously worked very hard." Hachiman's expression was a little stiff, as if he had been greatly hurt.
You, the co-author, only listened to the first half of the sentence?
Kent couldn't help but lower his voice: "We also discovered a holy land planet in the DL117 galaxy on the front line. The volume is even more than three times the size of Yaochi, but the gravity and ecosystem are not affected at all, and it is suitable for the growth of all living things.
A perfect planet.”
This is a religious question, not an astrophysics question, Akinayama Hachiman thought.
"This planet should be run by the predators as a future capital, and they have set up heavy defenses, but this is meaningless." Wayne sighed: "They fought bravely, but it is meaningless."
It is indeed meaningless. With the hard power of the Predators, once they are forced to start a tough battle with the Galactic Alliance, they will not have any chance if they dare not perform beyond their normal capabilities.
As a result, the main forces of the coalition forces and the predators fought from the sky to the ground. In the blazing flames of hundreds of predator warships, the coalition forces added troops and plowed through all the defense facilities on the surface several times, and then arrogantly launched the land battle.
The troops were airdropped to the ground. Only forty-eight hours after the battle began, the losses of the Marauders almost exceeded all previous battles combined.
It was during this battle that Horatio Vane personally commanded a destroyer to deliver a fatal blow to a large predator flamethrower, and was promoted to the line of fire.
There are rumors now that his lieutenant colonel is an exaggeration and will become a colonel in two or three months at most.
…Anyway, there are no precedents in this regard.
Look at the "true commander" of the Thirteenth Fleet, Miss Eleanor Bonaparte. She is only one year older than Wien and the others, but she has seriously worn the star of admiral.
In the "Battle of Conviction", Aurora, the theoretical No. 1 ship of the Clear Sky class cruiser, always jumped left and right in full view of the predator fire and the complexity of the Imperial crew, and successfully led the Thirteenth Fleet.
Cutting off the connection between the two fleet groups of the Predators.
The Aurora's breathtakingly accurate main gun even flattened the bridge of the infamous Predator dreadnought "Homeless" on the spot. This blow was not intended to attack this dreadnought.
A fatal blow, but it must also be one of the most important blows.
If Eleanor hadn't been too young and had just worn the general star last year, she would have been eligible for promotion based on such military exploits. However, it is said that Admiral Connery was very satisfied with her performance and decided to apply to the National Defense Committee.
Expanding the establishment of the Thirteenth Fleet.
All in all, in this battle that was later recorded as the "Battle of Conviction", the club's friends all achieved a considerable level of military exploits.
However, Horatio Venn, who directly became the captain of the cruiser because of this, did not feel happy at all, only a sense of sadness. He wondered for a moment whether he was being too hypocritical, but he still said: "It's a waste of money."
! Man and earth exist! Even though that guy Yu Lian is out of tune, he can always say such reasonable things."
"Because although this statement makes sense, the biggest difficulty is actually executing it! Mihir Kent said: "The prerequisite for losing ground is to be able to convince one's colleagues, one's subordinates, and one's followers to give up their gains. If only
It’s just some meat eaters who are reluctant to give up their bottles and cans, but for ordinary people, what they have to give up may be their life savings.”
"You said the opposite." Hachiman said.
"Um?"
"It's easy to get people to give up their savings, as long as they don't lose hope. It's hard to get meat-eaters to give up their bottles and cans."
