Mecha and Knife

Who dares not to settle Ji Xinghe's account clearly?

Not to mention the powerful combat power of Ji Xinghe and the independent regiment, but the gift ability possessed by Ji Xinghe, if he really wants to make money...

Even without him saying the phrase 'Actually, I'm rich', everyone will firmly believe that he will become the richest person in the entire Federation. Even if you compare him with the princes of the empire, apart from the emperor of the empire, and the princes of the Sifang King and Aida Kang, how many other princes can be richer than him?

Now it is the three kings of the empire, because King Zhenbei has been killed by Ji Xinghe, including the best five sons, all of them were killed by Ji Xinghe, so no one can inherit the title of King Zhenbei. The fate of its fiefdom, even if Dongguo Cilian has been unable to provide information to the Federation recently, the Federation knows it clearly.

Therefore, Ji Xinghe actually has a chance to become the fifth richest being and the richest human being in the world including the Federation and the Empire.

Ji Xinghe didn't want to make money, and arranged for Liu Mian to negotiate his daily quota of gifts, on the condition that the military should not restrict or conceal the independent regiment in terms of technology and intelligence. Now, and compared to before, there is a clear promotion, so theoretically there should be no relevant restrictions and concealments.

Therefore, it can be said that it is free to give gifts to people.

Therefore, the account between him and the independent group must be calculated clearly, and there must be no difference.

But this presents a very serious problem.

Previously, the privilege of Ji Xinghe was 40% of the recovery value of the smashed imperial mecha, and other incidental seized imperial materials were not counted.

Later, Qin Tong and other ace mecha fighters who also applied for this privilege had the same calculation standard as Ji Xinghe.

But now, this privilege has not only covered them, but also covered all the mecha fighters of the independent regiment, and the proportion has also increased significantly.

Ji Xinghe said that he should follow the standard of mercenaries: 60% of the recovery value.

This is just one of the mercenary standards, and it can also be said to be one of the 'prices'. Other prices include:

Except for the imperial mechs, all other imperial weapons and supplies seized will also be settled, the same 60%.

All the conventional weapons and materials seized by the mercenaries have the right to keep them for their own use, but they cannot be taken away from the alien planet, and must be put into wars related to the empire as soon as possible.

Just the above three points, after being regarded as the standard by Ji Xinghe's independent group, made Ivanovic's scalp numb, not to mention there are some other standard prices, such as the premium of tungsten steel gold, the seizure of small leap gates The super high price of the device, the huge reward for winning key battles...

The key point is that it is very difficult for mercenaries to obtain these latter resources. Even if they do get them, they will only bring in more mercenaries, and most of them are those who were unwilling to join the army before.

And the independent group got these resources...

With Ji Xinghe's prestige in the army, if he really calculates according to this standard, and the calculation is accurate, then he can really do what he says - we will end this war!

Talk to Ji Xinghe again?

There is nothing to talk about, because Ji Xinghe's request has never been these, but - follow the standard of mercenaries.

This also means that Ivanovic is fully capable of knocking down the price of Ji Xinghe.

And there is no need to talk to Ji Xinghe.

Nantianmen Space Station Command.

Ivanovic, who was waiting for the meeting to start, suddenly asked: "The independent regiment, how do you distribute the...wealth belonging to the independent regiment's mech fighters?"

Someone immediately replied: "They are all included in the public account of the independent group, and they are used to exchange resources as before. The difference is that in the past, only mecha-related resources were exchanged, and other resources were all in normal quotas. Now, other resources also need to be exchanged." Change."

Ivanovic frowned.

"Is it Chen Xun, Liu Mian, Qin Tong's suggestion?"

"No, I heard that General Ji Xinghe made his own decision."

"According to General Ji Xinghe's character, shouldn't it be?"

"We also don't think it should be, but it is said that it is so, and the information is very reliable."

Ivanovic believed it, and the Independence Regiment still has some "his people", which is all thanks to Tang Qiao's recruitment of mecha fighters for the Independence Regiment.

So in terms of internal intelligence about the independent regiment, he is actually 'confident'.

Speaking of which, this matter was indeed decided by Ji Xinghe himself, which made Chen Xun and the others very surprised and very pleased.

Just as they were worried that Ji Xinghe would once again transform from an old man into an old woman, causing the independent group to hesitate, this time they were also very worried that Ji Xinghe would call the shots and say, "Give it to whoever it is."

If that's the case, even the independent regiments won't be able to fight. The truth that money touches people's hearts has never changed.

Fortunately, Ji Xinghe seems to have awakened, and has always maintained the status of "the strongest old man in the Federation", and made a decision before their suggestion.

With Ji Xinghe's prestige, after making such a decision, no one would doubt it. The mecha fighters of the independent regiment never regarded themselves as mercenaries who left the federal army and started fighting alone.

This is also one of the main reasons for Ji Xinghe's strong request to retain his and the independent regiment's rank and establishment.

In this way, everything seemed to be in order, and the independent group blossomed around with the Heian space battleship.

After the first batch of income, a real orbital mecha airborne kit was added, so there is no need to worry about being shot down by the Empire during the process of using a parachute. Although the black or white flowers that bloomed in the alien sky are gone, they have truly achieved the goal of blooming everywhere.

It really turned on the robbery mode, which made Ivanovic even more headache.

The participants finally arrived, and those who could not arrive also used holographic projection technology to participate, and the meeting officially started.

Sophia, the plenipotentiary representative of the Trident security company, looked at the real people in the meeting room and the shining stars of the holographic image, and she didn't feel nervous at all.

He looked quite calm.

It has something to do with the power brought by the capital, and the mercenary group she 'leads', which has just won a beautiful victory on the surface of the alien planet.

After Ivanovic nodded, the meeting began. The relevant personnel introduced the small-scale battle that the Trident Mercenary Corps had just participated in, and made a very detailed analysis of the battle report.

After hearing this information, Sophia's state became more natural, and her body just relaxed.

I heard Ivanovic's cold voice.

"I'm very dissatisfied."

"Huh?" Sophia froze for a moment.

"You guys played too badly."

"But didn't we win?"

"There are many ways to win. If it's a victory that doesn't take sacrifice and loss into account, don't worry about it."

Sophia sensed something was wrong and became a little nervous.

"It hasn't been long since our people arrived on Alien Star, and we haven't really gotten used to it yet. Give us some time, and we will bring the kind of victory that both you and the Federation need."

Ivanovic pressed: "How long?"

"..."

Sophia was sure that something was wrong today, but she didn't dare to express her opinion on this kind of matter.

Let alone her, the commander hired by Trident High-tech would not be able to give an accurate answer.

Ivanovic was very satisfied with Sofia's speechless performance, and said in a general way: "If you are not sure, I will give you time, but before that, we can no longer implement according to the previous agreement standard." gone."

Tu Yuan, Yang Antai, Davis and others who participated in the meeting suddenly laughed silently.

Ji Xinghe is really real, and has brought down the 'price' of mercenaries.

But how much was shot down?

Sophia took a deep breath and asked, "Then what do you think our performance is worth?"

Ivanovic is also a ruthless person, and Tu Yuan and the others were a little surprised by the answer he said.

"Thirty percent."

From the original 60% to the current 30%, cut it in half!

"impossible!"

Sophia directly refused.

The company's interests are only one aspect, the key is that the company earns less, and those mercenaries can earn even less.

A group of people who put their heads on their waistbands to make money in Alien Planet, when they have no money, of course they will put their heads back on their necks, and they have to use various methods to protect them tightly.

Without the mercenaries, the mercenary company would naturally become a joke.

Ivanovic raised an eyebrow.

"impossible?"

Sophia said shortly: "This is completely different from the agreement we signed before. You have violated the agreement. We cannot join the war at this price. You must also compensate us."

The plenipotentiary representative of the Trident security company seemed to have become the embodiment of justice, and made a passionate speech in the conference room of the Nantianmen space station.

"We came to Alien this time. In addition to the cost of the voyage, we also made a lot of sacrifices due to the failure of the dormant cabin. This account, if you don't change the original negotiated price and cause us to be unable to participate in the war, you must also pay for it. We make compensation."

Hearing this, even Ivanovic became angry. He finally felt the feelings of Ji Xinghe, Tu Yuan and others before.

With such a fool around, there is really no need to hold a meeting.

"compensation?"

The cold voice, combined with the cold eyes, and the murderous eyes of other generals, made the representative of the Trident security company finally remember who she was facing now.

And, the gap and difference in the identities of the two parties.

Let Sophia suddenly sober.

Don't look at Ivanovic forcing Ji Xinghe to leave directly for some interests, but in the final analysis it is also for this war. The difference in philosophy does not mean that the people they protect with the lives of thousands of soldiers can make such threats face to face.

"I'm sorry, but I admit I was overly emotional with my words."

It was not timely for Sophia to admit her mistake, but at least she admitted her mistake, so she could continue to say: "But the spirit of the contract should be respected in any era and on any occasion. We have already signed an agreement and paid a lot. Moreover, this It’s not just about our Trident company, even if we are willing to accept it, what about other companies?”

Trident Security Company was the first security company to participate in the trial after the mercenary system was activated, and it was actually a mercenary organization.

And those federations who have long been eager for the interests of this war have established a number of security companies before the mercenary system passed the trial resolution of the federal parliament.

According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 12,000 mecha fighters recruited by security companies like Azure Star, experienced and retired, and inexperienced but highly talented.

As Trident's spaceship arrived on the alien planet, some other security companies that had not been authorized had already sent their mech fighters to the alien star in advance with spaceships, or were setting off from the blue star.

It's just because they can't land, so they are still parked in space for the time being. If the newcomers are not authorized, they will also stop in space.

Being in a weightless environment for a long time will definitely have an impact on the mecha warrior's body, and it is impossible to train. However, considering the voyage time from Azure Star to Alien Star and the need to 'compete for the market', security companies don't care about this.

According to the original plan, after the Trident security company's mecha fighters participated in the battle, they only needed to win a few small victories, and the other security company's mecha fighters would be authorized to land on alien planets.

But now...

"That's why we have to talk to you again."

Ivanovic's tone also softened, and he said earnestly: "Before you set off, we did have a lot of pressure. But on your way from the Azure Star to the Alien Star, we have won two battles in the Gods Mountain theater." A crucial victory, you should be able to understand what it means."

"Of course I understand that this represents the victory of our Federation, the heroic dedication of all the soldiers on the front line, and their fearless sacrifice. On behalf of our Federation, we are one step closer to defeating the Empire..."

After Sophia complimented her a few words, she changed the subject: "But we are under a lot of pressure. As I said just now, there was an unexpected failure in the hibernation cabin that none of us wanted to see, which led to the failure of twenty-three highly talented machines. A soldier who died on the way to the foreign planet for support.

It also included the first and second place graduates of the Mecha Warrior major of the Starry Sky Military Academy in Longzhou, and they also received gifts from General Ji Xinghe. How can we explain this loss to their families? How to explain to the shareholders who support our company? Of course, there are also fans who support the two of them..."

Speaking of this matter, Sophia is also extremely regretful. Why didn't she pay more attention when purchasing the hibernation cabin before?

It's fine if there was an accident in the dormant cabin of other people, but the accident in the dormant cabin of Fang Wang and Jiang Li really brought a great loss to Trident Security Company.

Although the money given to Fang Wang and Jiang Li in advance is a lot, it is nothing to Trident. The key is that these two people are the first to try out mercenaries. One of the core reasons for participating in the war system.

The first and second place in the mecha fighter major of Longzhou Starry Sky Military Academy, and the gift of Guoji Xinghe, these two points are enough to show that these two people have a bright future.

Even if he can't grow into a subgalactic mecha fighter like Han Li, he can become an ace mecha fighter like Qin Tong and Harris, and it's not a big problem.

But now, it's all gone.

Fortunately, neither of these two people has family members, but she won't say it.

"Although I am also very sorry, the accident during the voyage has nothing to do with us." Ivanovic pressed: "Also, we will investigate the accidental failure of the hibernation module you mentioned. If it is because of Your reasons caused their accidental death, and we will hold accountable."

The difference between accidental death and sacrifice, that's too big.

Sofia didn't expect that Ivanovic would turn him into an army. What about his own people?

She didn't even think about it, as the commander-in-chief Ivanovic, no matter how much he was with his own people, it was impossible for him to betray the interests of the federal military on such occasions and matters.

Moreover, this is in the interests of Ivanovic's own people.

"We have investigated and it was indeed an unexpected failure. Please believe that we are also very sad."

While emphasizing it, Sophia also corrected his statement, and then said: "But thirty percent, we really can't accept it, it can't even make up for our normal battle losses. The mechas we purchase and build by ourselves are inherently inferior to mechas." The cost of mechs purchased and manufactured by the military is higher, and we need to pay taxes on our profits..."

Tu Yuan suddenly said coldly: "If you can be as efficient as the Independence Regiment, I don't have any opinion on 60%, and Ji Xinghe won't say anything. But the lower your efficiency, the lower our casualties will be. The bigger it is, the more support it needs to invest in, so how to calculate these accounts? So I think 30% is too much."

Ivanovic frowned. On the surface, he was suppressing the mercenary company, but in fact he was suppressing the independent regiment. He was ready to mention some more, to avoid the trouble of Ji Xinghe coming to Nantianmen space station to find him.

But now, what does Tu Yuan mean?

Could it be that Ji Xinghe can really accept the 30% standard, just like what he said, the price must be lowered?

Or retreat to advance?
