After listening to Lin Zhengyang's story, Mr. Wei's heart immediately sank. He quickly called the engineer for more detailed inquiries.

Speaking of which, they were a bit unlucky. Because the geothermal energy extractor was too large, they took it apart and transported it into 20 armored vehicles.

Among these 20 armored vehicles, only 3 vehicles transported important components. But by coincidence, one of the armored vehicles was blown over.

"Is there really no way to repair it?" Wei Tianxing asked reluctantly after a slight silence.

"We don't have enough technical reserves, and they are all high-end precision equipment. There is no equipment to repair such equipment here in the shelter, and we don't even have a chance to try it." The engineer was also quite helpless.

They have been exposed to this set of geothermal energy extractors for more than half a year. Coupled with the previous repair work, they also have a deep understanding of this set of equipment. If there are matching repair equipment, they may not be unable to try it.

It's just that there are only one or two instruments that can repair such cutting-edge precision equipment among the large bases with scientific research laboratories. As for a medium-sized shelter like theirs, don't even think about it.

"If the geothermal energy extractor loses this important component, can it be replaced by other equipment? If it cannot be replaced, will the geothermal energy extractor be able to operate without this important component? Even a low-power one will do." Wei Tianxing added from Two questions were asked on the side.

But the engineer gave a ruthless answer, "No, this is an important part of the converter. Without it, the entire equipment cannot operate at all."

"Oh, this is all my problem. After I have arranged things here, I will immediately leave for the East China Sea Base. I will show off my old face and find those old guys to help me get this important part. Come out." Lin Zhengyang said with a sigh.

If they follow the normal process, it will take at least 4 to 5 months for them to re-customize this important part. However, he still has some connections in the military. If these connections are used, they should be able to compress the time to two months. .

"Wait a minute! We still have hope. Don't forget these important parts. We have customized two sets." Wei Tianxing shook his head.

Yes, what Mr. Wei was talking about was the important set of equipment that Lin Xinyang and the others had.

At first, he only made this arrangement out of caution, but he didn't expect that it would now become his last hope.

After all, if you re-customize parts, the money spent is still a small thing, but the important thing is time.

You know, as the abyss passage continues to expand, there is less and less time left for them to develop. If two months are wasted, many plans will be postponed.

"You mean those mercenary groups? I'm not talking about you, Old Wei. In the final analysis, mercenaries are just people with combat experience. They have not undergone any strict training at all. It's okay to let them kill zombies, but now they are... The armed forces of the Morgan Consortium are fighting.”

"I don't have a problem with you using them as bait to attract the attention of the Morgan consortium, but it's inappropriate to give them such an important task." Lin Zhengyang frowned and said.

In his opinion, both important components should be handed over to the military department for transportation. Although it is very risky to put eggs in the same basket, no matter how big they are, it should be better than putting them in the hands of those mercenary groups.

"Lao Yang, I don't agree with what you are saying. Do you think the current mercenary group is still the same as when the mercenary guild was first established a year ago?"

"I admit that the mercenary groups at that time were noisy and no different from a mob, but after a year of life licking blood at the edge of a knife, believe it or not, in this kind of small-scale team battle that does not require much command, you can definitely fight with The soldiers in your military headquarters were fighting back and forth."

"If you send mercenaries to the real main battlefield, maybe it won't work, but if you use them as surprise soldiers, you can still look forward to it." Wei Tianxing immediately retorted.

"Okay, okay, even if what you said is right, it is under a situation of even strength. But don't forget what their positioning is, it is a bait! They are used to attract the troops from the Morgan Consortium, and to attract There are definitely a lot of them, do you think they can still make a difference under such circumstances?”

Seeing that Wei Tianxing was about to refute, Lin Zhengyang immediately added, "And don't forget what the order you gave them is? If you can't do anything, you can leave the goods and run away."

King bomb!

This sentence suppressed all the words that Mr. Wei wanted to refute.

There are two biggest differences between a mercenary group and an army. The first point is discipline. On a small battlefield, a mercenary group can still rely on the prestige of its leader to command, but if they are gathered on a large scale, the real When you enter the battlefield, you may be in disarray.

And the second point is their willpower.

As long as the army receives an order, even if they know they will die, they will rush forward without hesitation, but mercenaries cannot have such a will.

Therefore, when things cannot be done, giving up the mission is almost the first choice for mercenaries. After all, life is more important than anything else.

This is also the nature of a mercenary, and Mr. Wei cannot refute it.

Although he could not refute it, he still had some hope in his heart when he recalled the information about Lin Xinghai, because Lin Xinghai's rise was too amazing, and the opponent's strength could not be viewed with normal eyes.

Not long after, they received news that these mercenary groups had returned.

The nine mercenary groups were divided into three teams, and two teams had returned at this time.

The death toll of the first team that returned exceeded 100 people. This was because they lost the transported items at the critical moment, and the other party checked the items and slowed down the pursuit, so they were able to escape safely.

As for the second team that escaped back, it was much more miserable. More than half of their people were lost, and even a mercenary leader died in battle.

This was absolutely a devastating blow to the third-level mercenary group, and it was very likely to be reduced to a second-level mercenary group later.

As for protecting the transported items, let alone, they lost them at the first time.

Such a result made Wei Lao quite speechless, and he couldn't blame the other party for anything. After all, this was the order he had issued before, and these mercenary groups had completed their mission as bait.

At the same time, he also got a message from the two major mercenary groups, that is, the encirclement and suppression team sent by the Morgan Consortium had more than half of their troops.

Moreover, they usually fight zombies, and it is the first time to exchange fire with humans who also hold hot weapons. This combat experience is simply incomparable with the armed forces of the Morgan Consortium, so when the two sides exchanged fire, they were suppressed.

After hearing these news, Wei Lao's mood suddenly became heavier.

Lin Zhengyang, who was also listening to the news on the side, was not in the mood to mock his old friend at this time.

He also hoped that these mercenary groups could really bring back important parts, but the other party's performance was worse than he imagined!
