Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 68

Chapter 68, Something Happened

The arrival of the Space Marines did not have a big impact on the Governor’s camp.

Even the people in the wasteland have heard of the name of the Emperor’s Angels. In the past, before the planet was destroyed, these stories were enduring popular topics, appearing in text and visual images. In today’s post-war era, these things are of course gone, but the “story” itself will still exist. The older generation tells stories to the younger generation, and then passes them on to the next generation…

This makes the people under the Governor curious when they see the Space Marines, and they can’t help but always look around.

But it is also the characteristic of the wastelanders that they are sensitive and timid about danger.

They only dare to watch from a distance, and they don’t even dare to look too presumptuous or too direct, so as not to anger these giants who can kill them with a slap.

And the Space Marines… To be honest, they are really used to this kind of look.

As for the impact on the development of the camp…

To be honest, there is still a little.

Gu Hang has always had a large manpower gap in the development of productivity. Now, apart from other supply needs, a construction team has to be allocated to build houses for the Space Marines.

The key is that these Space Marines attach great importance to this, so they simply live next to it and supervise it directly, and dare not cut corners even a little bit.

A large amount of alloy plastic steel, cement, and bricks produced have to be transported to them for use. The materials have been the best, but the Space Marines are still not very satisfied. They will not give up until they are sure that this is indeed the best quality that can be taken out of the Governor’s Camp.

However, in general, this impact is still within the acceptable range for Gu Hang.

Just think of it as hiring seven tough guys and paying the employment fee.

In addition to attracting attention, slightly slowing down the development speed of the Governor’s Camp, and occupying some manpower and resources, their presence is very low. In addition to watching the construction site every day, they pray and train, and their days are like ascetics.

Later, it seems that they feel a little embarrassed to do nothing all day, after all, there is a saying that they are assisting in the war. They began to enter the alien forest in batches to fight the mutant monsters.

This was definitely to protect the governor’s cause, not because they were bored after not seeing blood for a long time!

However, the monsters in the forest could not satisfy the Space Marines.

Before, although there were no high-level monsters in the alien forest, there were still quite a few of them. But after the ambush plan of the original angry owl sect on Gu Hang last time, a certain catalytic means was activated, so that a large number of hatching nests were born in advance, and a large number of monsters were eliminated. The number of monsters in the alien forest became very small, and there were not even many hatching nests.

This made the Space Marines want to practice and find the feeling of killing again, but it was not exciting enough.

But soon, their place came.

…

When the Phoenixes were doing nothing, Gu Hang returned to his work of worrying about the development of the camp.

The total population of the camp officially exceeded 10,000 these days.

The various production plans and population distributions were not arranged by Osena in a particularly perfect way, but at least they were well organized, and Gu Hang did not have much to intervene directly.

There was a political officer with a political point of 9, and he managed the camp of 10,000 people very well.

He just paid a little attention to it, and didn’t need to worry too much. He saw that the monthly income of his subordinates was steadily increasing, and it had reached 61 points.

Strive to get over 100 soldiers when the “salary” is paid next month!

At the same time, during this period, he selected and recruited more than 100 soldiers from the newly arrived refugees, and together with the 500 troops that Lambert brought before, which originally belonged to the Hodgson family and whose command and ownership had been completely transferred to the governor, they formed two infantry battalions.

That is, the 5th and 6th battalions.

These 600 soldiers have also been trained and strengthened by Gu Hang using the system function. This means that Gu Hang has spent 6 points of grace, but it also means that the troops under his command have reached more than 1,700 people.

For the sake of caution, Gu Hang replaced and deployed most of the officers of the two battalions. A considerable number of soldiers were also reorganized with the previous 2nd, 3rd, and 4th battalions.

The mixed troops have been trying their best to get rid of the influence of the original command system. After the reorganization, even if Lambert had ulterior motives, the troops would be of no use, and it is unlikely that he would call on the team to turn against him.

Of course, based on the contact during this period, Gu Hang initially believed that the two people of the Hodgson family, the old and the young, should cooperate sincerely. But despite this, it is necessary to be on guard against others, and it is also reasonable for Gu Hang to take precautions.

Lambert had no objection to this. He even had no objection to losing his military power and being thrown to the young Ossena by Gu Hang to do odd jobs. He worked diligently and was praised by Ossena.

He understood that his identity would indeed cause the governor to misunderstand and be on guard. But he was determined to use his attitude and everything he did to prove his loyalty in the long future.

Gu Hang was satisfied with this.

The young man was very sensible.

His grandfather was also sensible.

It would be difficult to achieve the population growth in the camp without the cooperation of Fuxing City.

In addition, most of the goods in the governor’s camp, except for those consumed internally, were sold well in Fuxing City for foreign trade. For example, the purchase of food, minerals, and other consumer goods was also relatively smooth.

During this period of time, Denison Henry felt that this business was too easy.

But today, Lambert came to Gu Hang in a panic and told Gu Hang some bad news.

“I can’t contact my grandfather.”

Gu Hang frowned: “Be more specific.”

“This morning, I made a routine contact with Fuxing City, but failed. It’s not that no one answered, but the line was completely disconnected. I realized that something was wrong and tried to connect with other wireless communication lines of the family, but the situation was similar; I contacted some people who had a good relationship with our family. None of them knew what happened, but told me that Fuxing City was under martial law and prohibited the poor from the outer city from entering the city…”

Gu Hang narrowed his eyes.

“This is really bad news… It sounds like old Mr. Hodgson may have been in trouble.”

“I ask you to save him!”
