After conquering a city, the first thing to do is naturally to find ways to consolidate its rule.
Li Ruobai drank two cups in a row, expressing his emotions about escaping death and conquering the city respectively. Then he sighed with satisfaction and poured himself a third cup. Before he could come up with the theme of drinking, No. 4 snatched him away and said, "You almost finished a bottle of wine."
"Yes, this wine is good." Chu Jungui poured himself a large glass, and then Lin Xi reached out and took the wine glass away gently and deftly, saying: "The wounded cannot drink."
"It's not good for girls to drink. They can easily be taken advantage of." Li Ruobai wanted to take the glass of wine, but then Lin Xi slapped her hand back.
"Back then, the five of you together couldn't drink enough of me. If you wanted to take advantage, you had to triple your drinking capacity." Lin Xi sneered at Li Ruobai's advice.
Li Ruobai had no choice but to find a bottle of wine that didn't look that old.
After three glasses of wine, Li Ruobai became excited: "If you want long-term peace and stability, there are only two ways. One is to clarify the canons and punishments so that everyone can have laws and rules to follow. The other is to live through life. Control and distribution of necessary supplies.”
"food?"
"No, oxygen." Finally reaching the area that Li Ruobai was familiar with, after giving the answer, Li Ruobai was very proud and waited for the praise.
"Why do we want to rule here? What we need is to quickly build a spaceship and find a way to go back." Lin Xi poured cold water on him.
"It may be difficult to build a spaceship out of thin air. It would be best to find a ready-made one, such as the one that first flew to this planet, even if it is a wreck."
"We need to map the surrounding area and communicate with other cities. Maybe they can give us some information and enough materials."
"Also, we need to find other rescue capsules."
The four of them discussed each other word by word, and quickly outlined what to do next.
Li Ruobai spent a day to find out all the information about the city. There are more than 10,000 people living in this city, among which there were once as many as 3,000 Blue Flag Army soldiers. It can be said that all the people are soldiers. The largest factory in the city is the steel mill. Due to the unique ore composition, the quality of the steel produced by the factory is quite good.
It's just that the blast furnace was blown up by the Azure Storm in the last battle, and it might take quite a long time to restart the factory.
In addition, the city also has a complete small arms and ammunition production line, as well as helicopter and drone repair shops. However, in the battle that day, Chu Jungui fought too hard, and all the helicopters were destroyed and could not even be repaired.
Li Ruobai could only sigh at this.
In the next few days, with sufficient materials and energy, Li Ruobai first built two long-endurance drones and began to fly around the city and draw maps. Chu Jungui, on the other hand, continued to recuperate from his injuries and repair the damaged Rigel armor. It's just that the technology of this planet is quite backward and the system is not perfect. Li Ruobai couldn't find a perfect way to repair it. In the end, he could only make a metal plate to temporarily seal the damage to the shoulder and arm.
In another two days, people from the settlement would come over one after another to replace the oxygen tanks with new ones. As the core means of controlling settlements, Li Ruobai did not change the oxygen tank model rashly.
In just a few days, Li Ruobai showed his abilities beyond science and technology, completely brought the entire city under his control, rebuilt the material supply system, and completely incorporated the Blue Flag Army.
Just as the four were discussing whether to communicate with other cities, a distant settlement brought news of the rescue capsule.
The four of them did not delay, and immediately mobilized trucks, organized a convoy, brought enough supplies and provisions, and also brought 300 Blue Flag Army soldiers with them, and drove to the place provided by the settlement.
There are still about a thousand soldiers stationed in the city, which is not a lot for four people. With the assistance of three hundred soldiers, if the soldiers in the city dare to cause trouble, they can immediately turn around and put them to rest.
The crash location of the rescue capsule given in the intelligence was 500 kilometers away, and it was estimated that it would take a day and a night.
As soon as the convoy left the city, Li Ruobai released the drone and flew forward. This drone is powered by a high-efficiency battery and is replenished by a solar panel. It can fly at an altitude of 10,000 meters for a whole day.
Li Ruobai used his personal terminal to project a virtual terrain map, and he could see that the terrain in front of the convoy continued to extend until it became blurry nearly 200 kilometers away.
Li Ruobai adjusted the communication channel several times in succession, but still couldn't get a clearer image. He glanced at the gloomy sky outside the car and said: "This damn weather, the interference is too strong. It's like this now. I don't know what the next hurricane season will be like."
"Fortunately, there is news about the rescue capsule." No. 4 opened the helmet mask, took a deep breath, and frowned: "Why does the oxygen you made have a strange smell?"
Li Ruobai also opened the helmet and smelled it, and said, "I forgot to add the scent freshener."
Lin Xi didn't turn on the helmet at all, and just said: "Boring."
The four of them were sitting in the back of the truck. This truck was modified by Li Ruobai himself. The cabin was a sealed aerobic space. Armor pieces were hung on the outside of the truck. There was a special shooting position on the roof, and a heavy machine gun was thoughtfully placed on it. . Little did he know that Chu Jungui now felt that the firepower of the heavy machine gun was a bit weak.
This truck does not require a driver and can automatically find suitable routes after being equipped with a terrain matching radar.
Chu Jungui stood up and stretched out his left hand out of habit, wanting to open the window guard and take a look outside. When he moved his shoulder, he felt it was empty, and then he remembered that his left hand was gone.
Lin Xi came over, stood next to Chu Jungui, opened the window and looked out, and said nonchalantly: "Now that the data is there, I can cultivate a new arm for you when I get back."
Chu Jungui nodded.
Li Ruobai turned around and said, "Would you like to replace it with a multi-functional robotic arm? You can replace it with a new model at any time, and it will be lighter and more powerful!"
Lin Xi glared at him and said, "It's better to be natural."
Li Ruobai shrugged and said with some pity, "You all don't understand the beauty of machinery."
No. 4 suddenly said: "What is that?"
At the edge of the projected topographic map, a striking red dot appeared, flashing continuously.
"Escape capsule! Found them!"
Just when Li Ruobai wanted to cheer, the map image suddenly kept distorting and quickly became blurry. Although it became clear and stable again after a while, the edges no longer expanded.
Li Ruobai's face suddenly turned ugly and he said, "The drone was destroyed."
"Man-made or natural disaster?"
"Only the devil knows!"
At this moment, there was a thunderbolt in the air, and large raindrops fell in the air, turning into a downpour in the blink of an eye. The planet's hurricane season has finally arrived.
