Chapter 139 The Will of the Orthodox, Diving Deep into Hell

Dragoon warriors are like bricks in interstellar warfare, ready to be moved wherever needed. From orbital assaults to space naval battles, from surface warfare to planetary defense, and even high-level personnel security, espionage, and assassination, they are adept at all of these tasks.

The exact organization of the Railgun Special Operations Brigade has always been a mystery. These soldiers are usually dispersed among various levels of units, making it difficult to count. Only a very few high-ranking officers know exactly how many active-duty Railgun soldiers there are.

The most basic dragoon combat unit is a three-person squad, usually paired with a fast shuttle, like Shao Shigang's team, which has been assigned from the special operations brigade.

A three-man squad of these dispatched dragoon warriors can command a company of ordinary soldiers.

A combat team can be formed by twelve dragoons, usually appearing at the battalion level, accompanied by a small escort ship.

Elite orbital assault regiments often consist of battalions of five to ten dragoon squads, equipped with medium-sized destroyers.

Lin Zhuo is only a major. Logically, he should first hone his skills in the special operations brigade for a few years, starting as an ordinary member, and only be sent abroad when he is ready to take on responsibilities independently.

However, his situation was clearly very special, so he was not incorporated into any existing organization, but instead formed a separate regimental-level rail assault force. Lin Zhuo became the regimental commander on his first day after graduating from the training base, but because of the shortage of manpower for the dragon cavalry, he previously only had ordinary soldiers under his command, with no more and no less than a thousand men.

Although there were no other dragoons, the regimental-level unit had all the necessary equipment and resources.

Thanks to the severe overcapacity in industrial production, Chijiang and other management intelligences could easily transfer one destroyer, three frigates, and twenty fast shuttles from the production lines of several industrial planets to Lin Zhuo. Except for the destroyer, which was an old ship undergoing repairs, the others were all new products manufactured in recent years.

Lin Zhuo also became busy from this day on. He needed to meet with his soldiers, communicate with commanders at all levels, and deal with both his subordinates and superiors.

We need to unite the troops. These soldiers from the orbital forces who were transferred here were recruited from various units. They don't know each other well, and it will take some time for them to adapt to the new environment and form combat effectiveness.

He is loyal to his superiors. Although no unit or individual can control him, it is a matter of great security. Any military action must take into account the subsequent political impact and cannot be carried out arbitrarily.

Lin Zhuo traveled back and forth between various planets, attended numerous meetings, and had many conversations. He has now become a familiar face to the highest levels of the entire human-community combat sequence.

He didn't try to convince anyone; he just went there with questions, asking which planets were safe to attack, which weren't, and which could be attacked secretly by disguising his identity.

The only planets that can be fully combated are the lost worlds where intelligent rebellions have occurred; there are currently six known to exist.

Planets that cannot be attacked are the strongholds of giant corporations. Only business empires that can completely control an entire planet can be called giant corporations. These villains who usually scheme against each other and fight each other will be immediately frightened and turn their spears around to launch a war of no return once they are poked by a major enemy.

The worlds that can be secretly attacked are those ruled by autocratic warlords, feudal lords, and various planetary emperors who cooperate with giant corporations. It is precisely these colonized planets, serving as dumping grounds for their products, that provide giant corporations with a vast market base.

In addition, there are some so-called neutral interstellar forces that waver between the two major powers and have planted many comrades among them, which can play a positive role. Therefore, there is no need to eliminate them in advance.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye. Before Lin Zhuo returned to the flagship to launch the expedition, he held a final meeting, which was probably the most important one.

He was prepared to be dissuaded in every way, and he was also prepared to go his own way.

The holographic conference room is shaped like a smooth-walled egg. As the projection starts, the scene transforms from a clean white space into a field full of green grass, streams, and blooming flowers.

Lin Zhuo looked around but didn't see any attendees. So he found the remote control and started moving the projected image. Although he didn't move his feet, the whole scene began to shift, as if he were strolling casually in this lush, flower-filled field.

"Comrade Lin Zhuo, look here. Yes, look this way, look carefully."

A soft voice called out, and looking around, he found that it was a bunch of magnolia flowers that were speaking, swaying their stems and leaves as if waving to Lin Zhuo.

"I didn't expect you comrades to meet me using virtual avatars," Lin Zhuo said with a surprised laugh. "Should I also switch to a virtual avatar?"

"No, no need. We're doing this so as not to put any pressure on you. Just think of it as the flowers and plants talking to you. Listen and forget about it, don't take it to heart."

"Thank you all for your concern. Alright, I'm all ears." Lin Zhuo sat cross-legged on the ground.

He bent down slightly, trying to be level with the flower, and the magnolia flower also lowered its buds, as if in return.

"We know who you are, and we understand your thoughts. Xiaolin, in this era, the recognition of artificial intelligence is the greatest social power, and you have received this expectation. You are our last hope. This responsibility is very heavy, and even we cannot imagine the burden you bear. You are so young, which is a great thing. Being young means that you can make mistakes and have the opportunity to start over. When ordinary people make mistakes, they need to solve them themselves, but your mistakes will now be borne and digested by the collective as a whole."

"I understand. I will consider all major decisions concerning the future carefully and will not act on my own initiative," Lin Zhuo said softly.

"No, you don't understand what we mean. It's not about making you hesitant and timid because of the concerns of millions of people, but about letting you do it. Kobayashi, don't be afraid of breaking bottles and jars. You will make countless decisions in your life, and with your weight, even the most careful action will be magnified into a hurricane. So just go for it. As long as you are alive, don't look back. As long as millions of us haven't fallen, we will always share your mistakes."

"————" Lin Zhuo opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, so he could only nod slowly.

"You are an extraordinary person, so don't do ordinary things. Unlike us, you are not bound by rules and regulations, and we can only place our hopes on you. So, go forward along the path in your heart, and let all humankind in the universe see that the vows made by our predecessors, even after ten or a hundred generations, are still being inherited by future generations and must be fulfilled."

"Yes."

That day, Lin Zhuo returned to his flagship. Six hours later, his fleet set sail, using a jump to reach their first target planet.

Lin Zhuo had arranged the tactical plan, and the entire regiment only needed to execute it. The most important person to command in this order was himself. As the only dragon rider, he would definitely take the lead.
