Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 20

Chapter 20, All Geniuses

The four Wanderers were the first weapon Gu Hang could use to smash the defense line of the River Valley Manor.

The second weapon was himself.

He also joined the battle in person.

Gu Hang sat in the armored vehicle, his eyes fixed on a bunker. A hole was dug there, and the superstructure was built with heavy stone, leaving a shooting hole. There were heavy machine guns inside, which posed a great threat to the infantry.

Facing the sturdy bunkers, even the machine guns on the “Wanderers” were difficult to shake.

There were three bunkers built by the mercenaries, forming their second line of defense.

After realizing that the simple rubble wall could not be defended, a large number of mercenaries had already retreated. They planned to rely on this bunker to continue the resistance.

Gu Hang closed his eyes, he could feel the vibration of his mind and the taste of blood. In his mental perception, the resisting mercenaries formed vague shadows, which were detected by his psychic vision.

He locked onto the nearest bunker, and with a blade that could not be seen in the real world, he cut through the heads of the two mercenaries inside and cut them off.

In reality, the bodies of the two mercenaries did not look unusual, but they fell straight back as if they had been beheaded. Their bodies were still twitching due to nerve twitching.

Then, Gu Hang did the same thing and killed the machine gunners in the other two bunkers.

He felt that his spiritual consumption was not bad, at least less than that of the mutant greenskin who imprisoned the dead.

There may be two reasons for this. One is that after the greenskin beast was transformed by the potion, its extremely strong body also brought about an increase in soul strength. Cutting off one of that guy’s legs cost much more than killing multiple mercenaries.

On the other hand, after the last upgrade, his spiritual attributes increased a little. This increase in attributes made the spiritual power he could control become 150% relative to before the upgrade.

The value of one attribute point is huge.

It was not too difficult to kill these mercenaries who were a little tougher than ordinary people.

The firing points of the three bunkers were silent at the same time, resulting in a large gap in the overall firepower of the mercenary defense line.

Under the cover of mortars and the machine guns of the moving armored vehicles, the infantry took this opportunity to charge forward.

Some mercenaries tried to get back into the bunker and start the heavy machine gun again, but those who tried to do so were either torn to pieces by the machine guns of the armored vehicles or accurately named and killed by the elite Marines. For those who really went in, Gu Hang’s spiritual vision could see clearly, and another “Soul Cut” could easily cut off the enemy’s head.

At this point, the morale of the group of mercenaries finally collapsed completely.

They knew they couldn’t escape. Leaving the bunker, it was impossible to escape the pursuit of the armored vehicles on two legs on a flat area.

Not to mention, there were terrible psychics.

A considerable number of mercenaries put down their guns and raised their hands to surrender.

At this point, the second line of defense of Mantan Valley Manor was also destroyed. The main force of the mercenaries guarding the manor had been almost annihilated.

…

It is too late to count how many people surrendered and how many were killed.

However, according to simple inquiries and confessions, the remaining enemies should be no more than 20 people, and they are all concentrated in the central building.

It is not far from the small river bay and is the residence of the owner’s family. The 20 people are not all mercenaries, but mainly Wo Han’s personal bodyguards.

In addition, it is also learned that the storage place of the materials looted by them before is in several warehouses not too far from the main building.

They just came back not long ago, and the goods have not been unloaded yet. The tied livestock and wooden carts still loaded with goods are all nearby.

Gu Hang has sent the people from the Waste Cave Company to clean up the warehouse. On the one hand, it is to prevent there are still people inside, and on the other hand, it is to count whether the goods are complete and how much there are.

The remaining people surrounded the last building that has not been conquered.

The building is beautifully built, and the four-story building covers a large area. When Wo Han is not in Fuxing City, he basically lives here. In that house, there were his servants, housekeepers and other people who served him.

As for the cultivators of the fields of the entire manor, those serfs, they were not allowed to get close to here. The place where the serfs lived was in a more remote place, where there were some simple board houses, and there were about two hundred people living in the big bunk bed.

That place had also been controlled by the soldiers, and the unarmed serfs stayed in the house honestly and dared not move.

There were at least more than twenty armed men in the main building.

The soldiers of the Feidong Company had tried to persuade them to surrender, but the soldier who was sent to persuade them to surrender was greeted with only bullets. Fortunately, the distance was not very close, and only two bullets hit the chest, which was blocked by the bulletproof plate.

The young soldier with a pain in his chest ran back in a hurry, and cursed with lingering fear.

The captain of Feidong Company, Perbov, kicked the young man twice: “Why are you panicking? Can these two bullets kill you?”

The young soldier shrank his neck. He dared to charge fiercely in the battle just now, and he was not afraid of going alone to persuade the surrender, but he was afraid of this company commander.

In theory, it shouldn’t be. The company commander Perbov is an old acquaintance. He was originally a local of Feidong Society and the captain of the ore excavation team. When everyone was recruited from their hometown, the leader asked Perbov, the captain, to lead the team. After they were organized into an army, Perbov was also promoted to a temporary company commander in charge of training.

How could a captain of an ore excavation team know anything about military training and military command?

But in the past few days of training, this company commander has magically mastered the skills and abilities of leading and commanding soldiers. Even he himself found this very strange, as if in those few days of training, his memory, comprehension ability, and even muscle memory were like a cheat.

He quickly became a qualified officer. He knew how to train the soldiers. He knew that sometimes he couldn’t be too lenient with everyone like in the past. The discipline and severity that should be in the army were indispensable. But at the same time, he also retained his understanding and love for everyone. They were all his compatriots and brothers from the same hometown. He regarded these soldiers as his family from the bottom of his heart.

And under his training, these soldiers also mastered the skills of officers, just like he had mastered the skills of officers. They mastered all kinds of skills to become a qualified soldier. From not knowing how to shoot a gun at the beginning, to everyone becoming a qualified shooter, being able to complete accurate tactical movements, being able to understand combat terms, knowing how to form a formation, how to attack, and how to retreat…

The whole process, Perbov felt very magical, but it was reasonable. He could feel the whole process of those changes happening to him – it was nothing more than a little faster.

Maybe these 100 people are really born to be soldiers and are all geniuses?

Of course, this speed is simply a horror story in the eyes of Yan Fangxu, a veteran and senior officer. When Perbov was communicating with Yan Fangxu, he also heard such comments from the other party. He was afraid that there might be some problems, so he asked the governor, but he only got one answer from the governor:

“Don’t think too much, under normal circumstances, you are all geniuses.”
