When Chu Jungui left the Ivington family mine, his expression was not very good. Facts have once again proved that metaphysics is unreliable.
The defense of the Ivington family mining base has been strengthened, but that is a general measure to deal with war. It is nothing more than adding hundreds or even thousands of guards to the base. This kind of defense was okay against attacks from the opposite side. When Chu Jungui defeated the galaxy guard fleet and drove the destroyer directly into the atmosphere and hovered over the base, the mining base wisely stopped resisting.
If they persisted in resisting, Chu Jungui wouldn't even need to attack on the ground. He could just drop bombs from orbit and level the base. That is, Planet 4 has its own storm clouds, so the base offensive and defensive battle will become a pure ground battle. Otherwise, Chu Jungui would not have been able to hold on at that time.
The galaxy guard fleet has a luxurious lineup of 8 destroyers and 8 frigates. However, Chu Jungui scanned the opponent's ship type and immediately rushed forward without hesitation.
Facts have proved that the command level of the planetary guard fleet is generally not very good. His subordinates are obviously old-fashioned ships with more than a hundred years of age, but the commander is so confident that he actually focused fire on 4 targets in one breath!
Just a day ago, Chennault led the far superior rescue fleet, but he only dared to focus fire on three targets. The fleet commander didn't know where he got the confidence. Just like this old-fashioned starship, with two propellers and two guards focusing their fire, Chu Jungui just stayed there and let them attack casually, and they would definitely not be able to penetrate the armor of the light-year starship within half an hour.
Chu Jungui was too lazy to use any tactics. He directly commanded the entire fleet to press forward and rushed to a distance of more than 100 kilometers in one breath. Then he calmly ordered half of the fleet to divide the opponent's flagship, and the other half of the fleet repaired the opponent's flagship one by one. thrusters to prevent escape.
This commander’s flagship is very easy to identify. The rest of the starships are all painted in the federal standard blue and gray paint. Among them is a starship that is completely red and has an obvious appearance kit. You can tell it is this with your eyes closed. flagship.
But accidents always happen. When Chu Jungui put on his scarf and picked up the knife, the red starship suddenly rose upwards, accelerating extremely fast and violently. Chu Jungui knew at the first glance that no matter what happened, There is no way I can catch up with him. The flagship turned into red lightning and disappeared into the depths of the universe in an instant. After a moment, there was a flash of light in the distance, and then gravitational fluctuations came, and it had jumped away.
Chu Jun returned to the capital and stayed for a moment before he understood what happened.
Fortunately, as soon as the commander escaped, the remaining starships surrendered immediately without any struggle or hesitation. This made the experimental subject, who was originally very motivated, almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
Next is the routine, disarming the starship, seizing control of the orbital station, and suppressing the planet's surface base. With the experience of the Cangfu Galaxy, the mercenaries are now familiar with the entire process and do not need Chu Jungui to worry too much.
As control of each key node was taken over, four holographic images appeared in front of Chu Jungui, namely two orbital stations and two surface bases.
One of the two bases is a residential city with hundreds of thousands of people inside. The other is a mine. This mine dug a huge pit hundreds of kilometers in diameter and 1,500 meters deep on the surface of the planet!
Such a scale made Chu Jungui, who had just started the map modification mode on Planet No. 4, feel quite emotional. As expected, he was still looking at the sky from a well, and his vision and layout were too small.
Although it is easy to build but difficult to destroy, it is not easy to destroy such a large mine. More than 10 million tons of raw ore are piled in the mine warehouse, waiting to be initially smelted and re-refined into metal ingots with a purity of over 99% before being shipped to the mainland.
Naturally, Chu Jungui had no interest in these raw mines. Even if he was interested, he couldn't move them or destroy them, so it would be useless to have them. The base, which is mainly used for mining workers and their families, is an alien city. It is quite crowded, with turbid air, not to mention the slightest scenery. This base city is similar to similar cities. It is divided into ordinary neighborhoods and high-end neighborhoods, and is physically separated to a certain extent.
The base city is full of personal wealth, which Chu Jungui neither values nor can touch. Robbing the federal government and robbing civilians are two different things. But there is much more that can be done in the mining base.
Chu Jungui enlarged the holographic image of the mining base, and the internal details were gradually improved as the occupation progressed. Chu Jungui first found the valuables warehouse and swept away the hundreds of tons of refined rare metals stored here. These rare metals are essential components of high-grade alloys, and the average unit price per ton exceeds 10 million. This amount of money from Chu Jungui alone is equivalent to making billions.
In addition, Chu Jungui also coveted the large equipment in the smelting plant, but unfortunately he couldn't take it away, and he didn't have enough time to disassemble it into parts. However, smelting requires a large amount of energy. This planet is very short of energy, so the energy supply uses industrial-grade fusion energy cores.
This kind of fusion core is different from the miniature fusion cores that Chu Jungui has come into contact with before. Each fusion core is a behemoth ten meters square, and the output power of a single core exceeds one million kilowatts. The biggest advantage of this industrial-grade fusion furnace is its stability and low cost. It can continue to operate for three years after adding fuel once.
The smelter alone has 20 fusion cores, and ten more cores are installed in the main part of the mine. Chu Jungui accepted them all unceremoniously and directed the mine workers to load all the fusion cores onto the transport ship transporting the ore.
Once the smelting plant was shut down, the equipment needed to be overhauled, but under Chu Jungui's forced order, the workers could only turn off the energy source, dismantle the core, and send it to the transport ship.
In addition, the base's mastermind is surprisingly advanced, and they are two large masterminds. Chu Jungui wanted to be promoted to a second-level agent in order to purchase the qualifications for a large mastermind. There are actually two of them in the base at this moment, which is simply an unexpected surprise.
After dismantling the main brain and energy core, Chu Jungui asked everyone working in the mine to withdraw to the city, leaving no one behind. The staff instinctively anticipated what was going to happen and quickly evacuated the base and hid back in the city.
The huge transport ship slowly took off and headed for the outer orbit, and at this time, the shadows of several destroyers could be faintly seen in the sky. A moment later, a black dot fell from a height close to the orbit and landed on the mine base like a meteor. It instantly smashed through the layers of buildings and penetrated hundreds of meters deep into the ground.
A moment later, a faint roar suddenly sounded from the ground, and the tremors spread far away from the mine. The ground in the center of the mine base suddenly bulged upwards, and immediately spewed out a terrifying flow of earth and rocks. Then, a circle of obvious undulations spread to all sides, and then the ground slowly calmed down. In the center of the base, a shallow pit with a diameter of 50 meters has appeared. All the buildings in the pit have collapsed, and the outer edges are also seriously damaged.
Then several more black dots fell from the sky, and earth-shattering explosions occurred one after another. Each explosion destroyed buildings within tens of meters. However, the mining base is too large and the buildings are quite sparse. Only the smelting plant has a relatively compact layout, but it is also a behemoth covering an area of several square kilometers.
Throwing these orbital bombs down is like sprinkling sesame seeds on bread, and they are still a thousand miles away from complete destruction. Chu Jungui frowned, feeling deeply that his power was insufficient. The destroyer threw nothing else but the remaining space torpedoes. Thrown from orbital heights, their power becomes extremely astonishing. But after all, space torpedoes are not specialized orbital bombs. One shot of that thing can kill everything within a few square kilometers.
As for the fusion bomb, it is very easy to cause a backlash in public opinion. If it is thrown away, it will be very troublesome, so everyone basically uses stupid methods to deal with the structures on the planet's surface. Moreover, buildings built on uninhabitable planets are extremely strong and difficult to completely destroy unless a large-yield fusion bomb directly hits them. On the contrary, various orbital bombs with clever ideas are much more effective. For example, they can cause resonance in a large range, causing several of the most popular building materials to lose their physical properties and directly turn into powder; another example is to cause artificial gravitational distortion, There are those that tear apart the main structure of the building; there are also those that generate an extremely large-scale energy field that can instantly heat the metal in the field to more than several thousand degrees.
In order to deal with the federal base, Chu Jungui did a lot of homework, but unfortunately his actions were too hasty and he didn't have time to get anything. Moreover, these types of bombs are not easy to buy. Apart from anything else, there is no way to explain just the question "Why do you want to buy them?"
Fortunately, although there are no advanced bombs in hand, Chu Jungui has enough tricks. Chu Jungui mobilized two destroyers to the low-Earth orbit on the base, and then they were like a hornet's nest being poked, spitting out space torpedoes one after another. In the blink of an eye, the two ships each fired hundreds of rounds!
Space torpedoes are only a little more advanced than low-grade cement here in Light Years, so now there are thousands of them in the Chujungui area, and then they are thrown out by hundreds or hundreds.
Dense black spots fell from the sky and penetrated into the soil one after another. Then there was a continuous roar. The ground bulged higher and higher, and cracks appeared, and fire and sand were spraying from each crack. Several bulges tens of meters high appeared in the center of the base, and then the tough foundation was finally completely torn apart. Many tall buildings collapsed or fell apart, and finally turned into ruins and rubble.
The explosion lasted for more than ten minutes before it stopped completely. The mining base no longer existed. Only the ruins on the ground showed that there had been traces of civilization here.
The city base was only dozens of kilometers away from the bombing site, and many people witnessed the explosion as if it were the end of the world. The Ivington family's mining base has been completely destroyed. It will take at least two or three years to rebuild and cost tens of billions.
Taking inventory of the harvest, Chu Jungui found that he had only harvested several billion in supplies and equipment, and the bases he had destroyed were worth more than tens of billions. The Irvington family holds 15% of the mining base and Boston Credit holds 40%. This mining base alone will wipe out tens of billions of profits from Boston Credit.
