"As for Chief Chang Sun's restrictions on use in the Dark Star Territory, he didn't seem to be very specific." After making such an important decision, Shen Chengfeng felt completely relaxed and said with some self-deprecation: "Even if it's okay, Yes, the output of one kilogram a day probably won’t have much effect! Can we each make a knife for fun?”
"Don't worry! I have an idea!" Hobrourou assured Tang Lang fiercely in his mind. "As long as I'm here, I can't increase the output ten to eight times! I'm still waiting to build one for myself!"
Tang Lang...you can go to shit. Even if it is increased by 100 times, the pitiful 100 kilograms are useless for a mecha that can easily weigh 20 tons!
"Gathering sand into a tower!" Hoo Dao Rou was not discouraged at all.
Based on his survival time, as long as he has enough energy, he can definitely smelt the entire planet into usable steel.
"Have you named this ore?" Tang Lang was too lazy to talk nonsense with the hob anymore and asked Shen Chengfeng directly.
"That's not true. How about Taklama ore?"
"You have no temperament, and you are exposing your secret!" Fatty objected. "In my opinion, call me Fat Brother Shi! Just like my warrior heart, it is unmatched in toughness!"
"It smells shameless!" Hob Meat complained angrily. "I suggest calling it Hob Mine!"
"Get lost!" Tang Lang rejected the two two-skinned faces' suggestions with a simple word. "It's called black egg ore, and the metal smelted out is called black gold!"
...
This name seems very casual!
"Okay!" Shen Chengfeng agreed without thinking.
Naming rights, Tang Lang quietly exercised his first right after taking office.
Return to base.
Only then did Tang Lang realize that Shen Chengfeng had a more cautious heart than Fatty.
The base is basically composed of three assault ships that are 100 meters long and stay on the ground. The advantage of this is that once encountering an irresistible attack from outside the planet, the three assault ships can instantly form a small fleet and escape.
Of course, relying on the three assault ships, the independent group also dug underground bunkers. Although the hardness of the black egg ore is high enough, it can still be cut before it is smelted into metal, which is more difficult than ordinary rocks.
Of course, with this extremely hard natural ore as a cover, the underground bunker is much stronger than ordinary-level fortifications. Even if the main cannon from the starry sky carrier hits it, it may not be able to penetrate the depths. The underground fortifications 20 meters below and the ten large-caliber energy cannons hidden deep underground can even pose a threat to starships within 200,000 kilometers of the planet.
And this time, the number of fortress-level energy cannons shipped with the Xuda reached 50. Once they are all deployed within a radius of 500 kilometers around the base, even a main cruiser will have to consider how to deal with these dozens of cannons. The consequences of the bombardment of large-caliber energy cannons. According to the once again strengthened defense strength, if you want to completely conquer Taklama Star, you will need at least a squadron and two mecha divisions.
In other words, in the two months since they came here, the Independent Group has done nothing but concentrate on running their own lair. Anyone who dares to come will instantly become a giant hedgehog covered with thorns. If Unable to resist, the three high-speed assault ships turned around and fled with everyone.
Following Shen Chengfeng's order, all the officers and soldiers of the independent regiment in the base walked out of their cabins to salute the arrival of the supreme commander who had been announced last night.
Tang Lang raised his hand to return the salute, and followed Shen Chengfeng into the bridge conference room of one of the assault ships named "Endeavour".
Because in the Dark Area, independent groups are not allowed to reveal their connection with the Southwest Federation, all starship naming does not follow the Southwest Federation rules, so whether it is a starship or a mecha, except that most of them are not in the Southwest Federation standard, the naming is basically the same as that of the independent group. A group of senior executives named themselves.
The "Endeavour" assault ship is not only Shen Chengfeng's command headquarters, but also the flagship of the four starships currently owned by the independent group, but it is not the main starship of the fleet. After the two arriving destroyers are successfully assembled, perhaps There will be a battle in the outer space of this starry sky.
The senior leaders of the entire independent regiment, Colonel Shen Chengfeng and Lieutenant Colonel Deputy Commander and First Battalion Commander Yu Chijian, including four other majors and thirteen captains including Chen Shi, all arrived in the conference room to discuss with Tang Let’s meet.
Tang Lang had met half of them.
Shen Chengfeng accompanied Tang Lang to meet the familiar and unfamiliar school officers and lieutenants one by one and introduced their current positions. Shen Chengfeng originally led 10 people, two of whom died on the battlefield, and the remaining 8 and those who stayed behind The three men from the base plus the six men from the two federal infantry battalions constitute the current backbone of the entire independent regiment.
The Independent Regiment still attaches great importance to science and technology, and upgraded the Science and Technology Department to the same level as the mecha battalion and starship detachment. Not to mention, the rather elegant middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses was ranked only behind Yuchi Jian. Tang Lang was a little surprised when he met Tang Lang. Therefore, his eyes stayed on him for a longer time.
"Minister Wensi is an expert in communications from the Science and Technology Department of our regiment. On Lafite Planet, if it weren't for him, we might have been wiped out by Niall's gang before the kid Jiepen came. On Takra On Mars, he designed the warning satellite based on a small amount of materials, and everyone is very convinced about this." As if knowing Tang Lang's doubts, Yuchi Jian hurriedly gave Tang Lang a special introduction.
Tang Lang suddenly realized that this man was indeed a talent. On Lafite Planet, if he had not had the cheats of Changsun Xueqing and Hoo Daorou, he would have been tracked down by him. He could predict the enemy thousands of miles away. Talented people, it’s no wonder they receive such special treatment.
"I heard that the commander is still studying at Qingyu Military Academy. If you have the opportunity to meet Professor Zhang Henshui, please say hello to him for me. I would like to say that the unworthy disciple Wen Si has missed his teacher's teachings for more than ten years. It is just that he is limited by the environment and cannot say hello to him. I am deeply sorry that the old man called me to say hello!" The middle-aged man looked at Tang Lang and suddenly said.
There was a slight silence in the whole place!
Everyone here only knows that this man is a genius in communications. Even Shen Chengfeng, who knows his details, only knows that he was framed and imprisoned for a research, but he does not know him because of the confidentiality level. I didn’t expect that he was a student of Professor Zhang Henshui, a master of communications who is a senior academician of the Federation.
The name Zhang Henshui is academician, but he is one of the top well-known academicians in the Federation, above Edward, who devoted himself to research in order to make his mentor famous. Maybe it is because those who engage in science are more strict, and he may have taught many students, but There are only a handful of people who can truly become his disciples like Wen Si.
Of course, no one thinks that Wen Si is bragging. If you want to brag, you don’t have to wait until now, right?
"Okay, Tang Lang will definitely deliver the senior's greetings!" Tang Lang smiled slightly and shook hands with the middle-aged man.
Of course, the signal sent out was that Tang Lang wanted to send a message to his teacher for him, and there was also the idea that he wanted to go home and have a look. At this time, it was natural to tell Tang Lang that as a senior, he would like to learn from the teacher. Brother, he will not have any reservations and will only follow the horse's lead.
Tang Lang didn't expect Tang Lang to be able to meet his expectations now, as long as he could achieve them one day. So Tang Lang readily accepted the olive branch he offered. Except for Shen Chengfeng's group of comrades who had fought together, they could believe it. , this person should also belong to the category that can be trusted.
"This time I am in charge of the exchange of supplies between the Federation and the Independent Regiment. Do you have any difficulties?" Tang Lang returned to his seat and asked with a calm expression.
This was the first time in Tang Lang's life that he had commanded a regiment of nearly 2,000 men, whether it was 4,000 years ago or now.
After a short silence.
"Liaison Officer Tang! The list of materials given to us by the Ministry of Military Affairs is too much. And one month is too short. The ore we have obtained through transactions in the past two months is far from meeting the needs of the Ministry of Military Affairs." A major grimaced and began to show his difficulty.
Major Tang Lang knows him and is a soldier he has fought with. He said this not because he wanted to embarrass the newly appointed Tang Lang, but it is probably true. Most of the experience of the newly arrived independent regiment was focused on the protection of the base. How could there be any How much manpower and time does it take to find the ore? Even if you want to barter, apart from exchanging equipment, I am afraid that no matter how precious this black gold is, it cannot be used as a bargaining chip.
Without revealing any trace, he glanced at Shen Chengfeng, who was sitting upright next to him, and Tang Lang couldn't help but feel a little angry. No wonder this man hurriedly handed over the highest command to himself, and he still had this little idea after doing it for a long time. Waiting for him! He also felt that he could not fulfill the military orders of the Ministry of Military Affairs, so he simply handed over the command to Tang Lang according to the order, and left everything to Tang Lang to solve, so he didn't have to worry too much, since he was not the boss anyway.
"Oh? I can't complete the military order!" Tang Lang looked away and calmly ordered: "Bring up the star map. I'll take a look at our location first."
The limited star map of the Dark Star Territory appeared in the center of the ring table with the slide of Vince's hand.
"The Dark Star Field has an area wider than the two major galaxies in the southwest of our Southwest Federation. This is part of the star map that our team's team spent half a month ago to get into the Hibbert gathering place three light years away from me and spent a lot of money to get it. Wen Si pointed at a planet surrounded by meteorite belts and introduced: "Here is the Taklama planet that we accidentally discovered because we were avoiding the meteorite flow. According to the star map provided by the Hibbert people, this place was originally occupied by them." Call it the Extinction Star. Any starship that wants to reach this star must pass through the terrifying meteorite flow zone. Without a strong control level and good enough luck, no matter how sturdy the starship is, it may become a meteorite flow zone. One of them is wandering in the starry sky.
The terrible meteorite flow is only one of the reasons why it is called extinction. The vast, desolate and lifeless surface of the planet is the main reason for getting this title. No one would be willing to enter such a planet after going through all kinds of hardships. You will laugh out loud. I believe that in the past countless years, there should be many starships that have arrived here, but they only saw the appearance, but failed to see the essence through the phenomenon and see the yellow planet. The vigorous vitality above the sand and the rich mineral deposits under the yellow sand, this planet is actually great!"
"Not only are there amazing rare ores here, but the outer meteorite zone is also the best cover and natural barrier for Taklama. You don't have to worry too much about the intrusion of large starships." Vince continued to introduce. "But we have three
Starship pilots can go through this meteorite belt to the outside world. In the future, after we understand the rules of the meteorite belt, more pilots will be able to avoid risks."
To put it bluntly, this place is an area that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. And it is difficult for others to enter, but you can wander around at any time. No wonder the chief general spared no effort to fill the place with supplies. It is a natural overseas military base or a take-out dig.
It has a mining function!
"Then let's talk about the general situation around us!" Tang Lang nodded and continued to ask.
"This is the Lexar Space Station. The station is built on a large meteorite with a diameter of 300 kilometers. It has been built for a thousand years..."
"here it is....."
After continuously introducing many forces within five light-years from Taklama, Tang Lang discovered that the Dark Star Territory was indeed a den of thieves as the rumors said.
Except for the Hibbert man who is good at traveling among many forces and working hard to do business in exchange for supplies, there seems to be no good bird.
How should I put it? Tang Lang had obviously not forgotten that a large number of people around him turned out to be a group of "thieves". Looking at the group of thieves on the screen, the eyes of the thieves were filled with tears.
