Chapter 253: Awakening of Giants
If we insist on forcing a decisive battle with the Empire in this valley, I am afraid that it will only take a few hours. The Federation's military strength on Sudake Star Ruther is likely to be completely destroyed here, and after they are all martyred, they still cannot stop the Empire.
People went to dig up the war apostles that had fallen into the ground.
Another important reason is that the War Apostle driven by Shi Chen has been completely pressed into the mountain by the heavy Baiyang. Xixia Mountain is also a famous open-pit iron mine. Although they have used mechas to carry out artificial
Excavation, but under the harsh conditions of not having professional excavation tools and being harassed by the Emperor [***] day and night, we still have not been able to dig out the hatch of the War Apostle that sank into the ground.
After eight days and eight nights of not eating or drinking, and suffering such heavy injuries with no timely treatment, until now, except for Her Highness Isa's stubborn guardian knight, not many people thought that Captain Shi was still alive.
For this reason, this position is no longer worth the lives of thousands of men holding on to it.
Feng Shangming looked at the imperial position getting closer and closer, and finally ordered to abandon the defense line of Xixia Ridge, blow up most of the tunnels that had been excavated, withdrew deeper into the Xixia Mountains, and then moved the remaining troops
Divide into twelve groups and continue to carry out guerrilla attacks in the surrounding area. The Imperial people's excavation plan must be delayed for at least another seven days until the reinforcements from the capital star circle arrive.
After the Emperor[***] occupied the wreckage of the Baiyang in Xixialing, he did not continue the crazy attack. Instead, he continued to build on the fortifications blown up by the Federals to prevent the Federals from counterattacking.
The Federation people are in a bad situation, but the Imperial people are also in a bad situation to some extent. Not only is time extremely unfavorable to them, the Federation also has two troops that are frantically harassing and even attacking their positions day and night, making it difficult for them to do so.
The Imperials are hard to defend against.
Above the light curtain, you can clearly see the original dark blue color block that represents the Federation, and the black and white color blocks that were once again separated by the Imperial Staff, representing the Federation's Silver Ten Guards and the Blackstone Mecha Battalion respectively.
.
The two separated many lines on the map. They didn't care about the empire's firepower coverage at all. They rushed straight and fearlessly towards the position. There were no divisions and encirclements, and there were no detours. There were only the most direct straight lines.
.
And when these straight lines representing a company or even a squad were biting the Imperial troops, the ends of the lines suddenly opened up again, cleverly starting to divide the firepower, and then methodically divided the Imperial garrison defense lines in Xixia Mountain one by one.
of shredded.
Under such circumstances, those with weaker melee capabilities began to pour their limited long-range firepower into supporting the two troops.
Clouds composed of gunpowder smoke floated in the manic night from time to time, and were stretched again to the mountains in the combat area of dozens of square kilometers, continuously emitting extremely dazzling lights and explosions.
Specific orders were issued from the temporary headquarters of both sides. The electronic signals passed through the pungent air, drifted through the dust of the explosion, and passed through the electronic interference of the two rooms with difficulty to each individual combat unit.
It was like using puppet strings to pull countless knives, cutting the opponent's body completely and dripping with blood.
The positional battle turned into a chaotic battle due to the iron blood and faith of the two. In the wilderness and in the dark night, people died every moment.
However, at this moment, there was a dull thunderous explosion accompanied by a dazzling light in the night, and thick smoke was seen rising from the ruins of the Baiyang.
Inside the Xixiashan Federation Provisional Headquarters.
"It's not good! The empire has concentrated most of the electromagnetic beam bombs and howitzer shells in the military depot, detonated them directly at the bottom of the Topol, and is trying to dig out the war apostles directly from above the surface." An adjutant reported.
Feng Shangming's uneasy feeling these days finally surfaced, and he finally understood why the empire's long-range firepower had suddenly weakened so much in the past few days. At first, the federal officers were still congratulating themselves that the fire in Nanling had destroyed the empire.
Having shipped too much baggage and heavy weapons, it now appears that the empire's persistence and perseverance are far beyond everyone's imagination.
If the Empire really gets the War Apostle, and they have the masters to control that giant beast, the consequences are unimaginable.
Even the usually calm old Army Commander Feng Shangming, with his gray brows furrowed into a ball at this moment, felt extremely heavy as he looked at the Imperial Expeditionary Force receding like a tide and shrinking into a ball on the light screen.
According to the cold calculations of the central control system, it would only take five days to forcibly open the passage from that location and carry out excavation operations.
What should we do? The old army commander was at a loss.
With their current military strength, relying on the dangerous terrain of Xixia Mountain, they can more than protect themselves. However, if they launch the entire army to fight the Imperials, especially positional battles, even if the opponent consumes nearly four-fifths of their heavy firepower for blasting operations,
, they are still no match, launching a general attack rashly will only increase the number of deaths.
But if the Imperials were allowed to successfully obtain the War Apostles, within two days, it would be enough for the Imperials to successfully escape back to the South Ridge after killing them all before reinforcements arrived.
At this moment, Suyecangna, who was attending the roundtable military meeting, suddenly said: "I have a proposal."
Feng Shangming looked at the heroic general from the Blackstone Military Region and raised his chin to signal.
Suyecangna glanced at everyone present and said: "It's still the old method of detonating the Baiyang's power furnace. I don't have Shi Chen's skills and can't make the power furnace fully explode, but the expected explosion yield can at least destroy it.
The imperial [***] within a three-kilometer radius will destroy the imperial defense line.
The core area, and most importantly, I can make the Imperial people's excavation tunnel collapse again. However, in order to prevent the Imperial people from working again, our best time to act is five days later. Even if the Imperial people start working again at that time,
It’s enough to delay the arrival of reinforcements.”
Feng Shangming's frown deepened. Although he knew intellectually that the success rate of this method was extremely slim and extremely dangerous, it was the only way to solve the current dilemma. He asked: "What do you need?"
However, Suyecangna did not hesitate at all. She pointed at Xu Qiusheng who was standing behind Isa and said, "I want him."
Fighting side by side these days, Xu Qiusheng's strength has been fully recognized by her. He is an ace pilot who is not inferior to herself.
When she first came to Suyue Star, she and Shi Chen were able to survive for several days and nights under the siege of the imperial army. With the help of Xu Qiusheng and the cover of the army, she believed that she could break through the heavy defense of the emperor and enter.
There shouldn't be any difficulties inside the wreckage of the Topol.
How to detonate the Topol's power furnace within a limited time and withdraw from it is a test of life and death.
She does not have much confidence in this plan. If the operation fails, the Federation will lose two ace pilots at once, and the Ruther Army will not escape the fate of destruction. The risk is not small, but this seems to be
It is also the only chance at the moment.
Feng Shangming glanced at Xu Qiusheng, who was a little stunned, and then at Isa, who looked unhappy, and said: "This requires the approval of Lieutenant Xu and His Highness Isa."
However, before Isa could express her opinion, she heard Xu Qiusheng say: "I have no opinion."
Just when Isa was about to refute, Xu Qiusheng continued: "If Chenzi were here, he would definitely agree."
When Isa heard this familiar name, her eyes were slightly red and she didn't raise any objection.
As the combat meeting ended, the Imperials suddenly discovered that the Federals, who had been frantically harassing them, suddenly seemed to have received some kind of order and immediately began to retreat.
It came like a frenzy and receded like a frenzy. In the next five days, although the federal people still harassed them frequently, they advanced and retreated in a controlled manner and never hesitated to fight.
There is an old saying in the Empire that when things go wrong, there must be monsters. However, the Empire people clearly know what the Federation people are planning, but the significant reduction in pressure in a short period of time is also a good thing for them.
Ever since Suborion fell from the sky above the Sudake Star, the tough battles have basically never stopped, and they have been defeated and defeated again and again. After fighting for so long, even the iron warriors are tired and their hearts are cold.
Suddenly getting a breather, although the Imperial people did not dare to relax, their originally tense nerves still relaxed involuntarily.
It was not until the fifth day that the tunnel dug from the interior of the Baiyang to the interior of Xixia Mountain was about to be successfully completed. The Imperials woke up again. They knew that if the Federation was to launch a counterattack or even a decisive battle, it would have to be today.
Sure enough, when night fell, dense grenades and electromagnetic beam bombs fell into the empire's position in Xixia Mountain, bursting out with gorgeous fireworks. At the same time, just as Qin Tuan expected, the federal people were like a tide, attacking the enemy.
The position launched a counterattack.
Countless mechas and armored vehicles rumbled over the riddled mountain roads of Xixia Mountain, and the attack drama of tens of thousands of people was staged in the darkness before dawn, creating scenes of magnificent and eye-catching scenes.
The decisive battle between Suyue Xing seems to be tonight, and the key to victory or defeat seems to be tonight.
However, not long after the battle, the imperial officials suddenly discovered that there seemed to be something missing in this war.
"Where did their two ace pilots go?" Just when Qin Duan was confused, two blue arrows suddenly appeared on the light screen force confrontation map, breaking through several defense lines one after another, shocking the imperial people.
Qin Kuai was also horrified. Sensing the opponent's intention, he quickly ordered: "Hold the Baiyang position to the death!"
Just as the battle on Xixia Mountain was in full swing above ground, there were muffled sounds coming from underground, where someone was sleeping, like a knock on the door.
After five days and five nights of non-stop digging last night, an engineering team from the empire finally dug out a path from the iron-hard Xixia Mountain to the cockpit behind the War Apostle's neck, and were doing the final blasting work, but the effect
None of it was ideal. Even the flesh and skin were blown to pieces, but the closed cockpit still couldn't be opened.
Just as they were increasing the amount of blasting, a violent shaking sound suddenly came from the ground, as if the previous series of explosions had awakened someone from a deep sleep.
