The distance of more than ten kilometers is only two or three minutes for three 9th-generation mechas with full power. He looked at Xiang Yu who was wading out of a salon in the desert in front of him and always maintained a lead of 100 meters. Shen Chengfeng's face was awe-inspiring as he saw the mecha and the modified version of the Ming Samurai that was never more than 20 meters away vertically behind him.
Not only was Tang Lang's growth beyond his imagination, the fat man who looked like a douchebag was also incredibly strong.
On Lafite Planet, Tang Lang was strong enough, but not so strong that Shen Chengfeng looked up to him. Even Shen Chengfeng dared to conclude that in terms of hand speed alone, he would still be able to overwhelm Tang Lang. But now, no matter what No matter how he catches up, Tang Lang can keep the distance at about a hundred meters, which means that Tang Lang still has a certain amount of strength left. Just in terms of the mecha's maneuverability, he already maintains an absolute advantage. .
Of course, Shen Chengfeng would never be so stupid as to attribute all these advantages to the strange 9th generation mecha controlled by Tang Lang. Without enough control power, no matter how powerful the mecha is, it is just for looks. .
This is like the racing cars on the ancient Blue Star. When the performance of the racing cars is almost the same, why are there first, second and third place? That all depends on the level of the racing drivers.
Tang Lang's ability to control mechas was even higher than that of his boss on Lafite. He even surpassed Shen Chengfeng, whose hand speed had reached the standard of an advanced level three mecha master.
Fortunately for Tang Langqiang, Shen Chengfeng at least knew how strong he was. But the fat man with a two-skinned face was not much weaker than him, which was a bit too much. But Shen Chengfeng knew that he had almost given up 100% With a strength of ninety-five, Fatty has not been left far behind, which means that he has at least the strength of an intermediate first-level mecha master.
Sure enough, there is no weak person who can be sent to the Dark Star Territory by Admiral Chang Sun!
"Company Commander Chen, the person who is ahead of Commander Shen is our new commander you mentioned before?" A big man wearing a gray combat uniform asked somewhat depressedly. "This is the meaning of showing off the new officer first when he takes office. ?"
"Show me a ball! If Commander Tang wants to show you, there's no need to show up at this time! Didn't you see that when he was on Lafite Planet, he took Commander Shen, Deputy Commander Yuchi and a few of our brothers to fight all the way out? God Destroy God met Buddha Destroy Buddha, and killed three groups of air pirates in a row, which made Nior and his gang almost crazy. Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone crazy and gathered hundreds of mechas, but we were able to slay them all. "A young man sitting on the other side curled his lips and retorted disdainfully.
"Ahem! Deputy Company Commander Wu, I didn't mean that. I meant that he is still too young after all. Oh my god, he is less than thirty years old. He is an intermediate first-level mecha master and may even be a senior mecha master. , I don’t know how he was trained." The big man explained awkwardly.
"As the saying goes: People cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured. The depth of the universe is inexhaustible. Lao Zhou, you have been fighting life and death in that gang of pirates' den for more than 20 years. I am afraid that the distance you have covered in your life is also greater. A thousand light years have passed, and the people I have seen are like the sand of the Ganges. Are there still so few young and promising people?" Chen Shi took over his subordinate's words, and his face, which had been somewhat green, actually showed The man who was too mature for his age sighed slightly: "What you see now is just Commander Tang's ability to control mechas, but you don't know that his grasp of the battlefield situation and his unconstrained tactical arrangements are first-rate." One is strong. Otherwise, do you think Boss Shen would be willing to hand over the command? An incompetent general will kill the entire army. Boss Shen will not be so pedantic that he will hand over the lives of his brothers to an incompetent person just because of a military order from the commander-in-chief. To tell you the truth, if the liaison officer from the Federation is someone else, even a famous general, and wants to seize the military power of our independent regiment, I, Chen Shi, will be the first to refuse. But what Commander Tang said, our gang and All the brothers he fought with were dissatisfied."
Chen Shi's words made everyone present look at each other in confusion.
As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The previous composition of Shen Chengfeng's tribe was very simple, which was a group of loyal subordinates who followed him to flee and a group of experts and family members who had no combat effectiveness but sufficient scientific research capabilities. They could work in Lafite The main reason why the Stars stand against the other two major air pirate groups is that they are united enough internally. However, as the number of personnel continues to expand, there are some federal troops who were implicated and sent to the border for punishment, as well as hundreds of people who were screened out from the air pirates. No. 1, if the independent group at this time wants to maintain the previous "purity", it can only be said to be an illusion.
But Shen Chengfeng is a very wise man. While absorbing personnel, he reorganized his troops and disrupted all personnel. The two infantry battalions that were originally affiliated with the federal army and all the officers above the major returned to the military region, except for the captain. At the same time, officers and soldiers below the rank of officers were promoted vigorously among their own officers and soldiers who had been with them for more than ten years.
Like Yuchi Jian, who was directly promoted to lieutenant colonel, deputy commander and commander of the 1st Mecha Battalion, Chen Shi, who was still a superior soldier when he left, became a captain and company commander, and his direct subordinates basically occupied the independent regiment More than 60% of the company-level and even platoon-level officers, and the most junior soldiers also became sergeants and squad leaders, basically controlling the independent regiment firmly from the beginning of the mecha squad.
The remaining 40% was given to the original officers of the other two infantry battalions. However, at least half of the soldiers under his command were replaced. Even if someone wanted to cause trouble, few people would dare to follow him. He also specially took the He used several excuses to severely punish the prick-headed officer who wanted to object. In this place where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, let alone confinement and other military disciplines, even if it is really thrown into space, no one will probably care about it. In addition, He had a reputation in the army before, and the lieutenants were quickly stabilized in the first wave of reorganization.
Next is the group of air pirates who were absorbed. Those guys turned out to be desperate gangsters who traveled around the world. Although they were screened, they were unruly and difficult to train. Even after arriving here, there were some who controlled mechas and escaped due to strict military discipline. Precedent. Shen Chengfeng was not so polite to them. Several deserters were declared guilty and shot on the spot. With such thunderous means, no one dared to easily disobey his military orders.
Using both gentleness and thunder, Shen Chengfeng was able to quickly integrate the three forces of the Independent Regiment in just two months. However, if he wanted to become as monolithic as before, he did not have a certain amount of time or experience. Don't even think about fighting a few times.
And just when the Independent Group had not yet fully taken shape, Shen Chengfeng, who had initially established his authority, announced last night that the Independent Group would welcome a new boss. Most of the Independent Group did not know Tang Lang's name at all. Is there still an undercurrent surging among some people?
That's why some people secretly tested their company commander's behavior. To put it bluntly, this group of people who had just started to feel a sense of belonging were extremely reluctant to have anyone pick peaches. Especially when they heard that he was still a young man under 30. .
But they did not expect that Chen Shi, the mecha company commander of the 1st Company of the 2nd Battalion, who was Shen Chengfeng's best friend, would speak so highly of Tang Lang, and he was so convinced.
After a brief silence.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to find many young people who can compete with the legendary Jeppon general Hana Miyamoto even if I search all of humanity! I think this new commander is reliable!"
"No, look at the way his mecha is running wildly in the desert. Even though it's just on the screen, I can feel his aura! Not to mention fighting against him, just looking at it
I just want to run away!"
...
A group of people who suddenly woke up began to brag as much as they could about Tang Lang, whom they had never met. Naturally, most of these guys were air pirates who had surrendered from Lafite. They would pick up knives when they met the weak.
, the long-established survival habit of immediately surrendering when encountering a strong person cannot be changed after spending a period of time with Shen Chengfeng and others.
Only some officers who were originally from the federal army were watching with cold eyes and did not express opinions easily. Tang Langxing was still not good. It was not decided by others, but had to rely on his own strength. From the current point of view, his personal strength is definitely strong enough.
Barely qualified to be a commander.
But, as a commander, how can you do it with just your personal strength?
Although Tang Lang has been recognized by most of the officers above the middle level of the Independent Regiment, there is still a long way to go if he wants to be recognized by everyone here.
At least that's the case for now.
Five kilometers away from the independent regiment's base, which consisted of several assault ships and a small mountain of rocks, the three mechas began to slow down and stood still.
"Brother Shen, that's awesome!" Fatty's Ming Warrior mecha gave a thumbs up. "My mecha is already running out of steam, but I feel you can be faster! You are already a senior mecha master!"
"
"Brother Zhu, you are not weak either. You are one of the most powerful young people I have ever seen." Shen Chengfeng had a look of pride on his face, but he also praised the fat man sincerely. The word "Brother Zhu" was a clear message.
It turns out that the former big pirate leader has put Fatty on the same level as him.
Tang Lang smiled slightly and was noncommittal. This is how it is in the army. If you want to gain respect, you don't just rely on your official position and military rank, you have to rely on your strength. He is like this, and so is the fat man. If he is a scumbag, he will naturally be punished by others.
despise.
However, Fatty's progress was a little faster than he thought. If he hadn't run like this today, he wouldn't have known that this guy actually had an intermediate level of strength. His ability to hide his clumsiness was really strong.
Where the base is located, in addition to yellow sand, there are also some black rocks exposed on the surface of the sand. As the three mechas slowly advance, more and more rocks shine with a strange luster in the sunset.
The huge mecha walked on the rocks, making a crunching sound like hard objects touching each other. But Tang Lang saw that the mecha's heavy mechanical feet walked over, and the rocks did not break in response. Apparently, the hardness was far greater than what Tang Lang remembered.
Ordinary rocks.
It is probably because you can dig down and build underground bunkers here, which is one of the reasons why Shen Chengfeng chose to place the base here! This was Tang Lang's first impression of the geography of the Independent Regiment's base.
But Tang Lang obviously still underestimated the Dark Star Territory.
In poor mountains and rivers, unruly people are not necessarily the only ones to emerge!
