Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 37

Chapter 37, Hatching Nest

Not to mention the security anxiety that comes from the weakness of its own direct lineage and the paranoia of being persecuted. Just to say that an imminent matter forced Gu Hang to accelerate the expansion of military power.

Before, there was an attack by the “abscess monster” in the governor’s camp. Later, Yan Fangxu led people to investigate the source of the monster attack and found that it came from the woods in the west.

Later, when Yan Fangxu led the soldiers to train, on the one hand, it was a training place, and on the other hand, it was also to clear these monsters.

As a result, you don’t know until you go. You will be shocked when you go. They encountered many monsters in that forest, not limited to abscess monsters. And further, they also found many monster hatching nests.

Gu Hang also went to check it out in person.

In the forest where the corruption nests are dense, the bark of the trees has been corroded by the secretions of the alien monsters, exuding a strong smell of decay.

The hatching nest he saw was hidden in a dark and humid woodland area, and the entrance of the nest was covered by dense vines and thorns.

After burning the vines and thorns, they entered the nest. The parasitic trees surrounded a circle, forming a hatching nest. The inside was dark and damp, and a strong odor filled the air.

In the corner of the nest, many alien monster eggs were attached to the wet ground. In the translucent egg shells, the embryos of mutant monsters were wriggling. A thick layer of mucus condensed on the egg shell, dripping from time to time, turning into a pool of foul-smelling green pus. A strange light shone through the cracks in the egg shell, reflecting on the walls of the nest, forming a strange shadow.

At that time, Gu Hang ordered the destruction of this nest, burning with flames and destroying the inside with explosives.

However, it was just a small hatching nest, and no one knew how many more there were in this forest.

According to their subsequent assessment, if left alone, a wave of mutant monsters would sweep towards Gu Hang’s camp, including the Abandoned Cave Society, in a few months.

By then, it is hard to say how much it will cost to quell this wave.

But fortunately, the situation was discovered relatively early, and there is still time.

Gu Hang needs to expand the army to protect the safety of the camp. According to his idea, after the troops are reorganized, except for the necessary guard troops, other teams will be rotated and sent to the forest to purify the monsters’ nests.

The main goal of doing this is of course to nip the problem in the bud as much as possible.

In addition to this, there are also gains that can be obtained immediately, which Gu Hang also attaches great importance to.

This gain is the gift point.

When Yan Fangxu led the troops to destroy the first alien hatching nest, Gu Hang jumped out of the battle settlement interface.

There was no loss, and two gift points were obtained.

Then he learned that there were a large number of hatching nests in that woodland.

His eyes lit up at the time.

You said it was a threat, and you are right. But in Gu Hang’s view, it is also a big vault!

After a lot of hard work, he developed the territory, introduced population, and took charge of light industry, heavy industry, and construction. He finally raised his monthly fixed income from 12 to 25, doubling it. He

was just thinking about making further efforts to raise this data and wait until the end of the month to get the harvest, but he found such a big gold mine.

Destroying a hatching nest is two points of grace. As long as ten are burned, it will be equivalent to a month’s harvest!

Then I still have to work hard to farm… Oh, the fields still have to be planted, and these two things are not contradictory.

However, it is precisely because of the harvest that he pays more attention to it.

The 1st Mechanized Servant Battalion basically did not move, and the troops were divided into three places: River Valley Manor, Governor’s Camp, and Abandoned Cave Society.

The 2nd Infantry Battalion was basically thrown into the strange forest – this name was newly given by Gu Hang.

The team was handed over to Captain Yan Fangxu as the commander-in-chief, responsible for clearing the forest.

In the past few days, seven nests have been burned.

Captain Yan was cautious in commanding the operation. He would rather proceed at a slower pace and be more cautious in order to avoid losses as much as possible.

In contrast, the original commander of the 2nd Infantry Battalion, Perbov, was not very satisfied with this. According to his idea, let alone burning seven nests during this period, he wanted to burn seventy!

If he did not strive for more results as quickly as possible, how could he live up to the governor’s trust?

Gu Hang was very satisfied with the high enthusiasm for fighting shown by Perbov.

Then he chose to support Yan Fangxu’s command strategy.

Things were not so tense that they had to be filled with human lives. Gu Hang did not need to order the soldiers to die in vain.

The elimination of monsters in the alien forest can still be carried out step by step, destroying monsters and destroying hatching nests, and taking it slowly.

There are still several months to go, and even if Yan Fangxu’s cautious strategy is followed, this problem should be solved.

Of course, as a leader, Gu Hang needs to be more cautious.

The destruction of the seven monster nests brought Gu Hang a total of 11 points of gifts.

He plans to recruit another infantry battalion from the refugees and slaves.

Using the black box manufacturing machine, he was able to quickly produce enough weapons and ammunition to equip them; by spending grace points, he could also quickly train these newly recruited soldiers into qualified soldiers.

In Gu Hang’s case, his speed of recruiting soldiers was extremely fast.

…

The will of the governor was soon implemented.

A conscription office appeared in Feidong Society and the governor’s camp.

Residents of the two places were eager to join the army.

Of course, their reasons for enthusiasm were different.

The most enthusiastic were the residents of Feidong Society, who had lived a good life for a while and fully cherished this time. They were willing to take up arms and defend the hard-won results.

The second most willing were the refugees who had just been assigned. They didn’t have any special ideas, they were purely attracted by the generous treatment of the governor in recruiting soldiers.

Full food, two sets of military uniforms, weapons and equipment… these were enough to attract those refugees who had nothing.

What’s more, Gu Hang would give them work points, so they could go to the distribution station to “buy” what they wanted. After these two days of preaching, they clearly understood that work points are good things.

According to Gu Hang’s instructions, among the 300 soldiers of the 3rd Infantry Battalion, 150 were selected from refugees, 100 were selected from starship slaves, and 50 were selected from the Abandoned Cave Society.

The personnel composition is relatively complex, but Gu Hang himself hopes that the army, as a melting pot, can try to bring together soldiers from different backgrounds.

And a more effective melting pot is the systematic [Soldier Card] system.

After a short period of training, Gu Hang will get a qualified infantry battalion.

After three or four days of training and about six days of equipment production, this infantry battalion will be formed.

While preparing the team and planning to make a wave in the alien forest, Gu Hang did not forget another thing:

How is the investigation of the cult situation in Fuxing City going?
