When Ling Lan received the news, she couldn't help but admit that 250 Ace Mecha Clan was lucky. Although there was a terrifying circular creature in the lake, it only had the intelligence of a seven or eight year old. It was not as scary as other creatures with high intelligence. This was why she was able to subdue it so quickly. If it was a creature with high intelligence, the battle between them would have taken a long time.
Of course, Ling Lan didn't think that they would lose. If even her father couldn't subdue the creature, the Federation would have to give up on this planet. No matter how many soldiers they sent, they wouldn't be able to take down this planet. They would only add more heroic souls to their ranks.
Soon, the operation to clear out the Black Giant Ants officially started. The logisticians of 250 Ace Mecha Clan started working hard.
Without comparison, they wouldn't know the difference between them. At first, the mecha operators of the 7th division were not used to the way the logisticians worked in 250 Ace Mecha Clan. This was because when they entered the base, they were asked to fill in a document about themselves. The document didn't contain any personal information. It only contained information about their favorite foods, habits, and the things they hated.
The mecha operators from the 7th Division were confused. They didn't know why they had to fill in this form. However, after a while, they realized that the services provided by the base made them happy. Their basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation were all good. There was nothing that they hated. The logisticians also equipped the mechas according to the mecha operators' preferences. As long as it didn't affect the mission, they would equip the mechas with their favorite weapons and equipment. The energy storage units they prepared were also adjusted according to the mecha operators' operating styles.
At first, the mecha clans didn't notice these small details. As the mission progressed, the other mecha clans also started to set up temporary bases. After they left 250 Ace Mecha Clan and returned to their own bases, they realized that they were spoiled. In their own bases, they didn't like anything. At first, they thought that it was because 250 Ace Mecha Clan's base was better than their own. However, after going out for missions, they realized the difference between their own bases and 250 Ace Mecha Clan's base. Logisticians!
Originally, after a day of battle, they wouldn't run out of "ammunition". However, in just half a day, the energy, or rather, the weapons and equipment that they had prepared had problems … They had no choice but to regretfully terminate the operation plan and return to the base to continue replenishing their "ammunition."
At this moment, they finally understood. The reason why they felt different was because of the outstanding logisticians in 250 Ace Mecha Clan. Compared to them, their logisticians were much worse.
Of course, 250 Ace Mecha Clan's logisticians weren't the only ones who shocked these mecha operators. The other mecha operators from 250 Ace Mecha Clan were shocked too. Although 250 Ace Mecha Clan had the least number of mecha operators, the amount of Black Giant Ants they cleared was not much less than 250 Ace Mecha Clan.
The mecha operators from the 7th division were lucky enough to work with the mecha operators from 250 Ace Mecha Clan. They witnessed the terrifying power of the mecha operators from 250 Ace Mecha Clan. No matter if it was battle experience or mecha piloting skills, the mecha operators from 250 Ace Mecha Clan were much stronger than them. After many times of working together, they realized that these mecha operators were all ace mecha operators who had been famous for a long time. In the past, they were all team leaders of various big mecha clans. Many of them were even regiment commanders.
They finally understood why 250 Ace Mecha Clan's logisticians were so powerful. It was because the mecha operators they served were all outstanding people in the military. (This is the conclusion they came up with.) This knowledge made these mecha operators excited. They were even more respectful towards the mecha operators from 250 Ace Mecha Clan.
Smart people knew that if they could get some pointers from these mecha operators who had been famous for a long time, they would be able to take fewer detours on their mecha piloting path in the future. Ace mecha operators were all ace mecha operators. However, a beginner ace mecha operator and a peak ace mecha operator who was only half a step away from becoming an imperial mecha operator were two completely different concepts. No matter if it was their battle prowess or experience, they couldn't be compared.
Of course, there were some people who knew about 250 Ace Mecha Clan. However, when they saw the terrifying battle prowess of these mecha operators, they started to suspect that the rumors were just a smokescreen from the military. They wanted to cover up the truth. In reality, the military wanted to transfer the best mecha operators from each division to the 23rd Division. They wanted the 23rd Division to quickly develop a super titled mecha clan and leave behind the soul and legacy of the 23rd Division.
With this suspicion and the fact that 250 Ace Mecha Clan's regiment commander had the surname 'Ling', the mecha operators were even more certain of their suspicions. This regiment commander with the surname 'Ling' must be one of General Ling Xiao's men. It was understandable for a regiment commander to use his confidants and people from the same clan to develop the soul and legacy of a division.
However, after witnessing the capabilities of 250 Ace Mecha Clan's regiment commander, all the regiment commanders and their members had to admit that this regiment commander who was able to become General Ling Xiao's confidant and was able to subdue these outstanding and arrogant ace mecha operators was indeed not a simple person. Especially the regiment commanders. They were all defeated by Ling Lan's commanding ability and battle prowess. For a while, they didn't want to work with Ling Lan anymore.
Just like that, all the regiment commanders and members of the 7th division came to the conclusion that 250 Ace Mecha Clan was the future super titled mecha clan that the 23rd Division was going to nurture. It was the soul and legacy of the division.
Then, these rumors quickly spread throughout the 7th division. Then, it spread to the mecha clans of the other divisions. This allowed 250 Ace Mecha Clan to gain a small reputation among the other divisions without Ling Lan and the others knowing about it. Many people with aspirations also started to work towards 250 Ace Mecha Clan.
The operation to clear out the Black Giant Ants was perfect. When the last batch of Black Giant Ants was killed, all the mecha clans that participated in the operation cheered excitedly. This meant that the mecha clans that participated in the operation would be able to build a temporary base in a safer area. Perhaps the mecha clans of the 7th division were stimulated by the appearance of 250 Ace Mecha Clan. These mecha clans decided to work together to build a temporary base. The command center of the 7th division also agreed to their request.
Not long after, a base that was even bigger than 250 Ace Mecha Clan appeared in the Black Giant Ants' territory. Ling Lan didn't want to participate in the distribution of the loot. After all, the mecha clans from the 7th division would get the most of the loot. They wouldn't take a small portion of the loot from 250 Ace Mecha Clan.
Although Ling Lan didn't care much about the profits from the Black Giant Ants' territory, Lin Zhong-qing still sent He Chaoyang to supervise the operation. In Lin Zhong-qing's heart, no matter how small a mosquito's meat was, it was still meat. He couldn't lose even a little bit of it. It should be known that he was in charge of the entire 250 Ace Mecha Clan. If he didn't plan well, how could he not plan well?
Because 250 Ace Mecha Clan didn't care about profits and only sent a representative to supervise the operation, the mecha clans of the 7th division had a better impression of 250 Ace Mecha Clan. This pleasant cooperation soon had a chain reaction. The 7th division was very satisfied with the 23rd division's politeness. The 23rd division was also very satisfied with the 7th division because of the feedback from 250 Ace Mecha Clan.
The result of both sides being satisfied with each other was that the relationship between the two mecha clans became more harmonious. Coincidentally, during this land clearing mission, the mecha clans of the 7th division and the mecha clans of the 23rd division had landed on the same planet. Because of the pleasant cooperation they had before, even if the two mecha clans had some conflicts, the first thing they would do was to negotiate with each other.
Both sides restrained themselves and made some compromises to each other. Hence, when both sides found the same benefits, they started to work together according to the way 250 Ace Mecha Clan worked with the mecha clans of the 7th division. This was an unexpected surprise for them.
The significance of this cooperation was far-reaching. The friendly relationship between the 7th division and the 23rd division wasn't only shown on this new planet. In other areas, the two mecha clans had a harmonious relationship. Even if they weren't very close, they wouldn't drag each other down.
In the headquarters of the Federation, when the two mecha clans were fighting for the benefits of the various mecha clans, the two mecha clans had a tacit understanding. Even if it wasn't convenient for them to make a move, they would try their best to keep quiet.
Compared to the 7th division, which had been established for a few hundred years, the 23rd division, which had just been established not too long ago, benefited a lot from this cooperation. With the support from the First Marshal's faction and the help from the 7th division, the 23rd division's status in the military quickly rose. They had more power to speak.
This made the representatives from the Second Marshal and the Third Marshal's faction clench their teeth. However, they didn't think that the help from the 7th division was due to 250 Ace Mecha Clan. In their opinion, the reason why the higher-ups of the 7th division allowed the 23rd division to do this was because of the previous deputy general of the 7th division, General Ling Xiao. Of course, this was all in the future. Let's not talk about it now.
As the land clearing mission progressed, many mecha clans built their own bases. Ling Lan's 250 Ace Mecha Clan didn't stop expanding their territory while working with the 7th division. After some time, they found some small mines.
Of course, this was only on the surface. Ling Lan hadn't reported the discovery of a large energy source at the bottom of the lake. According to Ling Xiao's plan, it wouldn't be too late to announce it after the general staff department of the 23rd division and the Federation's military finished negotiating. This was to prevent some blood-sucking crocodiles from coming here after smelling the scent of blood. They wanted to take the benefits that originally belonged to the 23rd division.
