Mecha Journey

Yang Mu said these words, then turned around and started his own maintenance work.

But Richard was a little confused by Yang Mu's rhetorical question. He recovered after a moment and laughed a few times.

"Boy, I'm not kidding you. Young people like you are full of passion and only have the idea of ​​throwing your life and blood in your mind." Richard said this, but his tone suddenly changed.

"But this is the real military, not your old military academy."

"People will die here!"

Richard didn't seem to give up on teaching Yang Mu a lesson, and said loudly, but Yang Mu looked at him, sighed, and walked down.

"Richard, I don't care why you are so insistent on letting me leave, but I have made it clear."

"I'm not here to get gold plated, nor am I here to retire!"

"Dead people? I've seen a lot of dead people. Don't define me like this just because of my age."

"What about the external mecha regiment? I believe I won't die here!"

Yang Mu said loudly, reprimanding the other party for his dejected mentality, but the expression on Richard's face did not change. He just looked at Yang Mu with a somewhat lonely look.

The two of them just stood in the warehouse, but Richard sighed deeply, leaned on the shelf nearby, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and was about to light one after taking out one.

Yang Mu, however, reached out and pulled the cigarette out of the opponent's hand, threw it on the ground and stepped on it.

"This is a warehouse, no smoking allowed." Yang Mu said to the other party seriously, and the other party nodded and put the things away.

"You must have heard something about our Thirteenth Mecha Team, right?"

Richard suddenly said such a sentence, changing his previous attitude of lecturing him, but now it was as if he was chatting with an old friend about a common thing.

Yang Mu glanced at the other party and said nothing.

"The Thirteenth Mecha Team has changed to seven people so far, and these seven people..." Richard said, turning to look at Yang Mu.

"They are all young people in their early twenties."

Yang Mu looked at the other party again, and obviously heard something different from the other party's words.

"Four of the seven people died at the hands of the native creatures on this planet, and the other three died in foreign wars."

"You may not understand this, but these people have a lot in common with you. Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. They feel that they can handle everything and are passionate about everything."

Richard paused, looked at the scenery outside the warehouse and said.

"But often they are so passionate that they get carried away and are eager to show themselves, and in the end they die."

At this point, Richard laughed twice.

"It's funny to say that I know the names of each of these people. They were all young men who could get along with me, but in the end they all died in front of me."

Hearing this, Yang Mu felt that he knew something, some reasons why Richard said those words.

"Do you think you harmed them?" Yang Mu asked, but the other party shook his head.

"It wasn't me who harmed them, it was this mecha group that harmed them."

"One after another, young boys still had a lot of youthful years, but in the end they all died like this."

Richard said a little disappointed, and reached out to touch the mecha shell next to him, as if he was reminiscing about the past.

After Yang Mu listened to the other party's words, he looked at the other party deeply. Seeing that this middle-aged man in his early forties had some gray hair on his temples, Yang Mu finally spoke.

"In the army, casualties are inevitable, and if you just let them escape, I can only say that your idea is stupid."

Yang Mu said this calmly, then turned around and continued to do his own thing without talking to the other party.

Yesterday, Kunsang also talked about this matter with himself, but the other party regarded it as the curse of the number 13. But now, this guy with the same qualifications blamed the mecha regiment for all this. in nature.

Yang Mu has long been used to seeing life and death, and he also knows that there will be some superstitions among soldiers, but these arguments cannot convince Yang Mu.

Especially Richard's overgeneralization is even a bit radical. Just because the people who died were all young people in their early twenties, they don't want such young people to appear in the mecha group again.

But Yang Mu is now even more interested in why the Thirteenth Legion suffered such frequent casualties. Yang Mu is now curious about what the other two girls think about this matter.

But let’s talk about this later. What we need to do now is to check the mecha in front of us carefully.

Seeing that Yang Mu no longer paid attention to him, Richard just sighed, and then he checked his mecha beside him.

After a long time, when the soldiers and pilots of the maintenance team came here, they looked at the two mechas that had been completely overhauled. Everyone's eyes showed surprise.

…

At the same time, Xingqing was colonizing a city with four stars.

This human colonial city, which was established less than a year ago, is in the midst of a major construction period. This city on the plains is expanding crazily, attracting more interstellar pioneers.

In a metal building in the center of Colonial City 1, the temporary city manager, Administrator Gray, was receiving a colonial inspection team that came for a preliminary inspection.

"Mr. Kong, welcome to your arrival. I'm glad to see you today."

Gray, who was neatly dressed, smiled and said, while at the door of the office, a middle-aged man with a big belly and a Mediterranean face slowly walked in. Two attendants next to him were wiping his sweat. It seemed that his fat body had caused him Big confusion.

"Director Ge, this city is still too hot." Kong Si said.

"Yes, it's been under construction. Some aspects have been neglected. Please forgive me." Director Ge kept smiling, but the man named Kong ignored him and sat on the big chair in the office swaggeringly.

It seems like he regards this place as his own territory.

Director Ge's eyelids twitched as he watched Kong Si's movements, but he still greeted him with a smile.

"Director Ge, have our inspection matters been arranged? This is an important task for our group now."

Kong Xian said with a arrogant look, but Director Ge said with a smile.

"We have asked the military to prepare an exercise. The White Tiger Mecha Regiment will come in person and will definitely bring you the most valuable information."

"Oh? Why are the military so cooperative this time?" Kong Xian seemed very surprised when he heard this, and then looked at Director Ge with a proud expression.

Gray could only explain that this was for the great cause of colonization, but in fact this matter was not that simple. It was just that the New Song Star Territory Administration Office did not allocate the funds needed for colonization to the Zerg. It had always relied on the support of the consortium behind the guy in front of him. , if Director Ge wants to increase development efforts and achieve results as soon as possible, he must rely on the strength of the group behind the person in front of him.

It is precisely because of this that in order for the other party's funds to be implemented this morning, Director Ge talked with the military people for a long time and paid a lot of money before the other party agreed to help conduct such an exercise.

"Director Ge, our group has spent a lot of money here, and the superiors hope to get greater returns from here."

Kong Xian said meaningfully to Director Ge, a pair of small eyes full of sparkle.
