Fang Linyan stood up and said:
"That's it, sir, the three of us did not get airsick, nor did we vomit violently."
Jason stared at Fang Linyan for a few seconds and said:
"I seem to have seen your information somewhere. You have served in friendly forces and served as a second lieutenant rank, right?"
Fang Linyan certainly has the rank of second lieutenant, but he was certified in the space. I didn’t expect it to be universal here, so he said:
"yes, sir, these two are my buddies."
Jason nodded suddenly and said:
"No wonder it's different from these girlies."
After hearing what Jason said, the goat and the vulture immediately envied it and said in the team channel:
"Let me go, does this regular military rank still have this advantage? Can it be directly recognized by the aborigines?"
Fang Linyan did not expect to have such benefits, which is also a bit of a surprise.
Vulture added:
"If we don't take this medicine, we can put it away. If I am not mistaken, this thing should be a long-acting stimulant. In short, it is a new type of drug."
"The short-term effect is very obvious, but if it is taken for a long time, it will be very harmful to the body, but the army values immediate combat power and does not pay attention to these."
Jason waited until everyone had finished taking the medicine, then nodded and said solemnly to the person next to him:
"let's start."
So the people next to you started distributing the materials, and all participants in the meeting were handed copies.
Fang Linyan took a closer look and found that the content on this document was very detailed, and it was related to a certain area called No. 323.
The information is clearly marked as second-level confidential status. Once leaked, it will be submitted to the military court for special trial! That's not a joke!
This document clearly enumerates the requirements of the Star Consortium, that is, a team of people first land and clear a safe area.
Then a sentry camp named No. 323 was established on a high ground as a bridgehead and temporary base for subsequent development, which may be expanded into a military base in the future.
Jason went a little easier, and a three-dimensional topographic map formed by the light brain popped up next to it.
It can be clearly seen from the above that the landing site is a hill made of red sand. The terrain here is relatively high, only about two or three square kilometers, and the surrounding is the most common topography on the Mostton Star-- ---Endless moorland.
Intuitively, this place is like a small island in the marsh ocean.
The reason why the military chose to camp here was to occupy critical terrain and obtain a tactical fulcrum.
The marshes on the planet Mostton are terrible. The marshes can be entered on foot, but there are dots and puddles of various sizes, ranging in diameter from half a meter to several hundred meters.
There is no obvious difference from the appearance, but once you get into a quagmire, it will be very troublesome. Therefore, the survey of the swamp can only be done on foot, and only the quagmire area can be marked before the mechanical vehicles can pass.
According to statistics, more than one-third of the current non-combat attritions were killed while exploring the marsh.
In fact, the terrible creatures in the swamp are not the most troublesome problem. The most troublesome thing is the huge purple mushroom tree nicknamed "Da Liba" that grows in it.
The scientific name of this fungus family plant is called austenella mycelium, which is tens of meters high and its rhizome is as thick as a giant water storage bucket, and it is three or four meters wide.
At night, the mushroom head located on the top of the austenella bacteria will split many spores, and the spores will burst after being separated, releasing a hazy mist.
The specific composition of this fog is still being analyzed. It is only known that the current analysis contains at least
methamphetamine
and
metafluphos isopropyl ester
and other terrifying components, which are as dense as morning fog in winter.
The visual effect still looks beautiful with little purple light, which will soon cover a large area. .
This poisonous spore with a strong "hypnotic effect" caused a large number of non-combat attrition.
Especially during the first few days of landing on the planet of Morston, many mercenaries who tried to enter the hills at night to carry out search work were recruited, and they fell into the swamp without a sense of resistance. .
Their trick was because they believed too much in the filter mask they carried.
However, the poisonous mist is not the most dangerous. The spores of the real bacteria are the best killer to cause death. They will be absorbed as long as they come in contact with the skin without inhalation.
The unlucky ones who are recruited will unknowingly fall into a deadly quagmire, and then be swallowed by some hunters lurking in the quagmire. The gastric juice corrodes, decomposes, and turns into their nutrients.
And these predators will go to the roots of the austenella bacteria to excrete and fertilize. This peculiar ecological cycle is also jaw-dropping.
After learning about this information, the Star Consortium’s purpose of building No. 323 armed outpost here is very obvious, and that is to focus on this point to provide a solid rest and supply area for the exploring forces.
In this case, with Armed Post No. 323 as the center, at least a few hundred square kilometers in radius can be included in a stable exploration area.
Fang Linyan noticed that the tasks received by their logistics staff at this time included but not limited to:
Four armored bunkers and three anti-aircraft missile towers were built in the camp. The materials and equipment were of course provided by the Star Consortium.
The rest of the facilities in the camp, such as water towers, supply stations, medical rooms, etc., do not require much defense strength. They will be dropped directly by transport planes after the defense facilities are built.
These conventional buildings have been modularized for a long time, and they can be built like building blocks in just one or two hours.
After talking about these things, almost an hour has passed, Jason simply said:
"Now, everyone stand up, take your backpacks and follow me!"
"Boys, I'm very sorry that you didn't have time to visit the new watchtower. We have to go to Height 323 and start work immediately, otherwise, the above me will kick my ass."
"And I am in a bad mood, I will definitely make you remember this unforgettable time! GOGOGO!"
So, less than two hours after leaving the shuttle, Fang Linyan and the group of people were put on another one, as if driving a duck on the shelf, to another Unicorn II.
then formed a formation with the remaining four and took off together.
No one complained, after all, the guys who were sick and vomiting before took the medicine and seemed to be refreshed again.
The flight process this time was a bit boring. The only bright spot was that about fifteen minutes after takeoff, I encountered a Rattlesnake missile attack from below.
It was just that the focused pilot noticed the warning on the radar for the first time, and directly released a jamming bomb, which successfully detonated the missile.
Then the pilot controlled the fire control computer on the Unicorn II to fire violently, turning the place where the attacker stayed below into a sea of flames.
After an hour of flying time, finally, UU reading www. uukanshu. The cm target area has been reached.
As the shuttle started to slow down and then circled, everyone began to look at the environment below.
From the porthole of the shuttle, you can see that this is different from the image displayed on the 3D modeling. There are patches of shrubs. There are thorny bushes everywhere. After a person falls, the shrubs will even reach the chest and neck. s position.
This is the most daunting question.
Because of such a terrain, it means that people's vision will be greatly hindered, and predators can easily launch an attack after moving through the bushes below.
The firepower and range advantages possessed by humans will be suppressed to the limit.
At the same time, such bushes will also cause the ground to be extremely humid, and there will be a large number of alien poisonous insects that breed here. Maybe they will not be fatal for a short time, but it will make people who stay here for a long time to be tortured and exhausted. , Pain is not for life
After witnessing the current situation of No. 323 Heights, everyone was upset because the situation before them was completely different from that shown on the 3D modeling.
There was even a big guy with a flat head who seemed to be a man of temperament, and he directly sweared an and said angrily:
"Damn, I must put the head of the donkey that made the topographical map into the toilet! This is the so-called bare red wasteland!!?"
His words undoubtedly resonated with the rest of the people. Fortunately, at this moment, the leading officer Jason stood up and looked around.
His body is burly, his hand is on the gun at his waist, and his sullen face is very oppressive, and the drum noise suddenly subsided as far as his eyes were.
