Chapter 199, Can you train space warriors?
When Gu Hang raised his second finger and put forward the second condition, Martins was already numb.
He even chanted the oath just now along with the chapter chaplain, so what conditions could he not agree to?
And the second condition, and the third condition that followed, were really nothing special - after they had sworn allegiance.
Gu Hang’s second condition was that the regiment must obey all his orders unconditionally.
No problem, just obey. Otherwise, what's the point of swearing allegiance?
It was the third condition that made them a little worried.
This condition means that all future new members of the Phoenix Regiment, from recruitment to training, will be handled by Gu Hang.
Essentially, this is to train T1 soldiers and train them into "political commissars" at Zhongsi Academy. The former is to improve the basic quality of the trainees as much as possible. Otherwise, according to the traditional way of training space warriors, a teenager in his early teens will be trained for at least five or six years, and at most seven or eight years, until he is close to adulthood, and then the best can be selected.
That's too slow. Gu Hang can't stand that kind of slow training.
He wants to explode the troops!
It is a more reliable method to directly consume the gift points and bring the young man with excellent qualifications to the T1 level.
Not everyone can be trained to the T1 level. When Gu Hang used the [Soldier Card] function to conduct related training, he often encountered situations where he could not be promoted. That was related to the qualification level of the soldiers.
But it's good this way. If we find a hundred young men who can be raised to T1 level by the [Soldier Card], it proves that their qualifications are quite good. If they don't even have the potential to withstand the [Soldier Card] function to be raised to T1 level, then don't waste your gene seeds and don't waste your life.
This is also a very useful filtering function in disguise.
Those who were eliminated and failed to be promoted to the T1 stage were not wasted. Those who were not qualified to become a space warrior could also join the 10th Special Operations Brigade and serve as special forces.
Stormtroopers are pretty glorious too.
As for the regular training, it is absolutely necessary to go to the Loyalty Academy. Before those guys become space warriors, they must first receive the correct loyalty education.
Martins had doubts about this matter, not because of ideological education.
The entire regiment has already sworn allegiance to the Governor, so what else is there to worry about?
What he was worried about was, did the Governor know how to train Space Marines?
Gu Hang also had no explanation for this, just like he would not explain how he was going to get the gene seeds.
As for how to respond to Martins' questions, it is actually very simple.
Gu Hang said something to him. His words were very tactful, but his meaning was very direct: he was planning to undergo a gene seed implantation operation next month. Does Martins have the ability to train a suitable candidate within a month using the conventional training methods of Space Marines?
Even if we choose from the more than 200 young men who have been trained in the Phoenix Monastery, we will not be able to find a suitable one.
It's not that the training method of Space Marines is bad, but the problem is that there is too little training time. The three consecutive operations failed before. Of course, the gene seeds were not properly stored before, resulting in reduced activity. Another big problem is that the quality of the recipients is not high enough.
If you can't do it, I'd better do it.
In the end, Martins had no choice but to accept it.
…
After seeing off the four members of the Phoenix Regiment, Gu Hang, who was alone, rarely asked someone to bring him a glass of wine, and sat in his seat to drink it alone.
He didn't show any excitement or happiness on his face, but he was indeed very happy.
The complete submission of the Phoenix Regiment is of great significance.
The core point is certainly not the four veterans.
If you just need to borrow their power, you don't necessarily need them to submit to you. Normal task delegation will be enough.
The greater value of this matter is that Gu Hang can finally use the gene seed exchange function without too many concerns to increase his own troops.
Lift the seal!
Space Marines were definitely not a cost-effective type of soldier. The two hundred or so points of grace it took to train a Space Marine, plus the money for a set of equipment, was enough to arm one or two infantry divisions. And one Space Marine was probably not enough to kill an entire division.
But things cannot be calculated in this way. There are many problems that cannot be solved by infantry divisions, and they require top-level individual soldiers like Space Marines to do them.
In the battle of Quintet, if it weren't for Martins and the other four, what would be the use of giving Gu Hang four infantry divisions? They couldn't stop that orc commander from destroying the core engine room. They just couldn't stop it.
However, no matter how impatient Gu Hang was, he couldn't just send out troops directly.
The previous gift points have been used up.
But it doesn’t matter, things can be prepared first.
Selecting young people with potential as reserve soldiers and sending them to Zhongsi Academy for training can all be done in advance.
…
A month passed quickly.
There have been many new changes in the situation.
A large-scale battle broke out in the Beiqing Valley area.
The Central Army Group's efforts to cut, compress and destroy the jungle were very effective. The deformed monsters hiding in the jungle were getting anxious.
Oh, it’s not so much that the deformed monsters are getting angry, but rather that the manipulators behind them are trying to make a desperate fight.
They knew clearly that if they continued in this way, this jungle eradication operation involving 200,000 troops and millions of people would really wipe out the jungle in the Beiqing Valley area.
It doesn't mean to cut down the entire vast jungle, but at least cut it into pieces. Some places where there are no abnormal monster nests can be cleared out and left alone; the jungle with abnormal monsters will be completely destroyed.
The synthetic starch factories that are being built at full capacity can digest the destroyed trees on the spot and convert them into the synthetic starch needed by the refugees.
This also greatly alleviated food pressure.
In addition, the autumn harvest was almost completed some time ago, and the alliance's food reserves are still healthy.
Not willing to sit and wait for death, the Natural Salvation Society gathered nearly 500,000 monsters of various kinds from the jungles of the Beiqing Valley area.
But even so, they suffered setbacks.
They themselves knew that in a head-on confrontation, they had no chance of winning despite their large numbers. In war, numbers were obviously not the most important factor, but firepower was.
But for the full version of the aberrations, even though the Abscess Sprayers have a long range, almost as far as firearms, and there are also biochemical artillery, in general, the large number of them is still supported by ordinary aberrations. Those ordinary aberrations only have close combat capabilities, and are pure cannon fodder.
A frontal attack would be a way to get food, but they had no other choice.
A wave of aberrations gathered and rushed out of the jungle in large numbers, trying to attract the attention of the Central Army Group in this way. Then, they launched multiple attacks from other areas of the forest.
However, the final result was still a failure.
In the end, almost all the deformed monsters that attacked were wiped out.
At the beginning, when Yan Fangxu detected a large number of deformed monsters, his attention was indeed drawn away, and the main force was directly attacked. However, after discovering that the enemy was moving out in all directions and launching multiple attacks, he reacted quickly.
First, the troops in the front launched a more fierce attack and wiped out the enemy in front of them;
Secondly, the reserve troops were quickly mobilized on a large scale across the entire front and supported multiple enemy attack points. These teams were basically the 15th to 25th Garrison Divisions trained in the past month. Their equipment was not yet fully in place, but they could be used temporarily.
The third is the militias and armed people's self-defense forces, which are already quite good. They resisted on the spot and waited for reinforcements to arrive.
Generally speaking, the first support to arrive is the air force formation.
At present, the Alliance's air force already has an aviation squadron with nearly 40 Wind Falcons. Each of them set out in three-plane formations after hearing about the situation in the Beiqing Valley area. They hovered over the Beiqing Valley area, and as long as they heard that there was a need for air support, they would go there immediately.
With the assistance of these air forces, which move very quickly and have a very wide combat radius, the attacks launched by the mutant monsters have hardly achieved any particularly good results.
Of course, the air force is just the air force after all, and it cannot play a decisive role. But as long as it successfully delays the attack rhythm of those monsters, that is enough.
After the Central Army Group on the ground has some time to spare, rapid reaction forces from various locations will be able to provide support along the way.
The Qinggu area is a huge peninsula, with the longest east-west stretch of thousands of kilometers. With just the few people on hand, it is definitely impossible to cover everything.
But it is not necessary. With a population of only a few million, it would be enough to put a few larger settlements. There is no need to stretch the defense line so far and so long, which would increase the difficulty of defense out of thin air.
After several targeted counterattacks and annihilation battles, these deformed monsters were eventually almost wiped out.
Then, the alliance's army followed the plan and sent a part of the rapid force southward along the multiple passages in the Qinggu area.
They will set up evacuation points along the way to help people who are still stranded in the Nanqinggu area to migrate northward.
This migration is semi-compulsory.
Ordinary people are fine, but the many plantation owners in the Nanqing Valley area are the biggest obstacle.
From the beginning of the disaster to the present, the plantations in the Nanqinggu area that have been able to hold on to the present are either relatively isolated from the outside world and have not encountered any difficulties so far; or they have survived together and have managed to hold on; or they are large in scale and are not so easily breached.
But no matter which one it was, it would be difficult to easily persuade the plantation owners to give up their own assets and follow a large number of hired farmhands to the north.
In response, the alliance expressed respect and then asked all the people to leave.
The population has migrated away, leaving only the plantation owners and their families. You can do whatever you want. If you want to die, the Alliance can't save you.
However, if anyone dares to incite the hired farmhands to resist the alliance's army, prevents the hired farmhands from leaving, spreads false propaganda that going north will bring disaster... and commits all kinds of such confrontational acts, they will all be regarded as enemies and will be severely struck by the alliance's army.
In short, the process of migrating the population to the south was not smooth, and bloodshed often occurred. However, the army carried out the will of the governor with steel and artillery fire. Even if things got a little turbulent, those plantation owners would never be able to stop this process.
On the Angry Star, Governor Gu Hang’s will is the general trend and the wheel of the times!
No one can resist!
During this month, Researcher Hu Ke, whom Gu Hang had previously followed, has made some progress in cracking the spoils that were recovered by the special forces of the 10th Brigade.
Hu Ke personally found Gu Hang and came to report the good news, saying that he had found the target location.
Sure enough, just as they had expected, the Natural Salvation Society did have control over a complete and undamaged spiritual energy field left over from the pre-war era.
Moreover, the most important research work they are currently doing is trying to figure out what disasters happened to those spiritual gas fields on the Wrathful Owl Star before the war, and how the gaps in the abyss were opened. They are trying to reproduce this process.
Moreover, they have achieved some results, which involved a large number of lives and a large-scale sacrificial ceremony.
The massive reproduction and out-of-control of the deformed monsters are related to their research.
This spiritualized gas field discovered by the Natural Salvation Society is not very large, but as long as it is a spiritualized gas field, the energy density within it is extremely exaggerated.
It is located at the southernmost part of Qinggu Peninsula, or Qinggu Subcontinent, about 80 kilometers southwest on the seabed.
The Natural Salvation Society is supposed to have built a mining site and laboratory there.
Hu Ke said that if he wanted to know what his student really wanted to do, he would have to spend more time researching.
Gu Hang didn't care much about it.
If Hu Ke wants to study it, then let him do it; as for solving the problem, Hu Ke doesn't need to worry too much about it.
At that time, he will send special forces to destroy the place through orbital strikes and under the cover of the air force.
Destroying the spiritualized gas field was a joke and an unrealistic thing; but he could destroy all the equipment and personnel arranged there by the Natural Salvation Society and cut off their way to continue using the place.
Of course, that's not now.
The Alliance's air force is too busy to spare the time right now as there is still a war going on in the Beiqing Valley area.
Moreover, the special operations brigade’s troops are somewhat insufficient.
Let those cultists live for a while, and when he has time, Gu Hang will give them a severe blow.
After this month, the monthly fixed income was also paid.
This time, there are 1,432 points, which is an increase from last month.
After obtaining these more than a thousand points, Gu Hang did not hesitate and invested almost all of them into the construction of the Phoenix.
