Chapter 18 Honor
Beast tide refers to a charge-style attack by one or more alien creatures after gathering a large number of insect swarms to launch a general attack on humans.
Even for a well-equipped army, a large beast tide is extremely threatening.
Fu Yan originally just wanted to ease the atmosphere, why did the atmosphere become more solemn after he said that?
"Then how long will the beast tide of alien creatures on this planet come?"
Liu Cheng asked, time is the issue he cares most about.
As long as there is time, he can dissect the star core fragments from the alien creatures.
He can absorb the energy of the star core fragments and slowly become stronger.
"It's not certain.
Sometimes it's once a year, sometimes it's once a month."
Song Ziming continued:
"Although there is no regularity in the time interval, the alien creatures are not all born out of stones.
They also need time to reproduce.
Last year, the alien creatures did not launch a beast tide.
Then in the past few months, they launched three times in a row.
It was during the third beast tide that the Marine Corps did not respond in time due to rest.
In order to buy time for the Marine Corps to deploy, our Wolf Squad sacrificed five brothers.
So, don't think that the alien creatures will not launch a second beast tide in a short time just because they have just launched a beast tide.
Some alien creatures are smarter than humans, and they are also very tactical."
Although Song Ziming said it easily, Liu Cheng and the other two could hear the difficulty and danger in it.
With ten soldiers, they resisted the beast tide that only 300,000 well-equipped marines could resist, and finally sacrificed five people.
What kind of iron-blooded and fearless disciplined team can do this?
Seeing that Liu Cheng and his companions looked a little unhappy, Song Ziming comforted them:
"Don't worry.
After three consecutive beast tide attacks, the alien creatures surviving on this planet also suffered heavy losses.
At least there will be no next beast tide in half a year."
The Marine Corps' camp is ten kilometers away from the War Wolf Squad's fortress base.
The Marine Corps' base is located in front of the plain where the residential city on this planet is located.
The War Wolf Squad's fortress base is built at the mouth of a small valley on the side of the residential city.
It is to defend against alien creatures attacking from the valley mouth.
After introducing the War Wolf base, Song Ziming drove the hovercraft and drove Liu Cheng and his companions to the direction of the Marine Corps camp.
"When we get to the Marine Corps, someone will take you into the city.
You three can go around and get familiar with it, and just come back before dark."
After Song Ziming gave instructions to the three people on the way, Fu Yan asked in confusion:
"I still can't figure it out. When alien creatures attack, we cover the retreat of residents.
Why do we also have to cover the soldiers of the Marine Corps and retreat behind them?"
The hovercraft was speeding on the endless yellow sand.
The four people were wearing headscarves, and Song Ziming couldn't smoke. He thought for a while and explained:
"First of all, of course, it's because our salary is very high, so we have more things to do than them."
Liu Cheng and others nodded. The salary given to the superpowers by the special forces is five to ten times that of the marines.
This is also the reason why the special forces can recruit superpowers.
In addition, all the spoils obtained by the superpowers in the battle belong to the superpowers themselves.
Otherwise, superpowers can get high salaries in any company.
What can the special forces use to compete with those big companies?
"Secondly, it should be because of a sense of honor."
"A sense of honor?"
Seeing that Liu Cheng and the other two did not quite understand, Song Ziming said:
"You should be able to experience it a little bit when you arrive at the Marine Corps later."
At the barracks of the Marine Corps, the soldiers on guard saw a hovercraft driving quickly towards them, and immediately warned the other party to stop and verify their identities.
But when the hovercraft approached, the Marine soldiers on guard saw that the person coming was Song Ziming, the captain of the Wolf Squad, and immediately cancelled the alarm.
He ordered the gate of the barracks to be opened, and directly let Song Ziming and others drive the hovercraft into the barracks.
You know, driving in the barracks at will is prohibited.
Except for the head of this unit, no one can drive in at will without permission and without identity verification.
But Song Ziming and his four companions can.
Song Ziming drove the hovercraft and passed through the crowd of soldiers walking in the barracks.
Not only did he not receive the disgust of the Marines.
After the Marines saw that it was Song Ziming who was driving the hovercraft, they made way for Song Ziming and his four companions.
This level of privilege made Liu Cheng and his three companions sigh.
When Song Ziming and his three companions arrived at the command post in the center of the military camp, Song Ziming and his four companions got off the car.
The guarding soldiers did not ask what Song Ziming was doing, nor did they ask about the identities of Liu Cheng and his three companions. They saluted Song Ziming and his companions directly.
Liu Cheng and his companions were sent directly into the command post of the Marine Corps, which was originally guarded by layers of guards.
Liu Cheng could see a glimmer of awe in the eyes of every Marine who greeted them.
Liu Cheng could feel that the awe of the soldiers was a respect from the heart.
It was a respect for the truly strong and the people of noble character.
He now has some understanding of the second reason Song Ziming mentioned, the heavy weight represented by the sense of honor.
The respect and preferential treatment they receive from the soldiers of the Marine Corps are all earned by the old members of the Wolf Warrior Squad with their actual actions.
Entering the command room, Hu Jun, the leader of the Marine Corps Army, saw Song Ziming coming and immediately walked up enthusiastically to hold Song Ziming's hand.
Hu Jun said:
"Old Song, welcome.
I heard that you went to participate in the training mission for new recruits a few days ago. When did you come back? "
Song Ziming said:
"I just came back today and brought back three new recruit eggs from the training battlefield.
They are all new members of our Wolf Warriors team. You send someone to take them around the city to familiarize themselves with the environment. "
"Haha, those who can join your Wolf Warriors team must be the best among the recruits.
Leave the three of them to me, so you can rest assured.
I promise to take good care of you. "
Hu Jun said to an officer on the side:
"Wang Qiang, if your group doesn't have anything important to deal with today, you can take them for a tour of the city.
All expenses incurred by the three of them were charged to me. "
The officer named Wang Qiang stood at attention and said:
"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!"
Good guy, we directly sent a group leader to be our guide.
How much respect do the Wolf Warrior Squad and Song Ziming have in this marine group army?
But if all expenses are reimbursed by the chief, that would be a good thing for Liu Cheng.
He was worried that he didn't have enough merit points to replace the equipment with greater firepower.
Just as Liu Cheng and the other two were overjoyed, they happened to see Song Ziming cast a cold look at them and the others.
That look seemed to warn them, if you dare to spend a penny from the Marine Corps, see how I deal with you when I go back!
The three people who were originally in high spirits suddenly dropped their heads and wilted.
"Okay, I'm going back. There's no need to send Commander Hu off. Thank you, Commander Wang."
After Song Ziming said goodbye, he drove the hover vehicle back to the Wolf Warrior base.
