"What about the court-martial, dozens of high-ranking officers here, can they throw us all in jail?"

"That's right, now is not the time to think about those uniformed lawyers. ”

"Wait, I said did you ever think about what would happen to the national treasury if we ordered a retreat? Don't forget, the last EMP bomb was dropped on top of the vault building, so I suspect their target might be gold. ”

"Nonsense, what can they do with gold, transport 8,000 tons of gold? It's ridiculous!"

"Okay, okay, you're all off topic, let's get back to our point of contention, whether to retreat or not. ”

While the group of officers and staff officers were chattering, a non-commissioned officer in charge of communications next to him suddenly jumped up and announced in a particularly loud voice: "General, the Pentagon's order has arrived!"

At this moment, the officers who were still arguing fiercely in the previous second fell silent in an instant, and followed the non-commissioned officer deftly through the crowd, tore off a piece of paper from a fax machine, and quickly handed it to Lieutenant General Brown's adjutant.

In the next second, the lieutenant general's adjutant put the paper in front of Lieutenant General Brown, and after Lieutenant General Brown, whose face was cloudy, read it, the gray-haired old man fell silent directly, and after 5-6 seconds, until the necks of those officers were stretched, the lieutenant general waved his hand helplessly, and instructed the adjutant: "There is nothing to hide, read it to everyone!"

The adjutant who received a clear order, he had no choice but to meet the gaze of a large group of senior officers, gritted his teeth and said: "Order Fort Knox to assess the situation on its own and make corresponding countermeasures!"

"This ...... What kind of order is this? This is simply a ......" A foul-mouthed colonel almost burst into foul language, and then he came up and grabbed the piece of paper, and looked at it in front of his eyes in disbelief, but unfortunately there was only such a short sentence on the paper, and the signature of the Pentagon Secretary of Defense was signed underneath.

"What should I do? Evaluate yourself, isn't this tantamount to nonsense? They are shirking their responsibilities!"

"Hmph, I said it before, those guys are some idiots with fat brains. ”

"If you're smart enough, you'll come up with a solution. ”

"What else do you think, of course, you will retreat immediately. ”

"Hey, that's how you can run away like a rabbit?"

"Who do you say is the rabbit?"

"Who else but you!"

In the quarrel that resumed again, the two strong lieutenant colonels were so directly on the bar, and when the two got closer and closer, and were about to use fists and kicks instead of words to communicate, Lieutenant General Brown, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke:

"If you two want to fight, then go to the grass above to fight, and then the rest of the people, immediately go to command and lead your troops, I now order in the name of the supreme commander of the Fort Knox base, all of them will be transferred, and it is enough to leave the garrison company of the headquarters, anyway, we are not afraid of any radioactive contamination underground. ”

"General, you're taking too much risk if you do this. "Loyal adjutant, he first expressed his opposition, no matter what position those senior officers held just now, now that Lieutenant General Brown has issued the order, everyone present is quietly relieved, because someone has taken the initiative to take responsibility, and no matter what the result and conclusion are afterwards, it has nothing to do with them.

"Hehehe, I'm 60 years old this year, I can't let those 18-20 years old guys stay in this hellish place with me, retreat, after leaving the polluted area, and then fence off Fort Knox tightly, so that I don't have to worry about anyone going to fight for gold." ”

“…… Yes, General!" now that the Supreme Commander of the base had made a decision, there was no point in arguing, so the senior officers went into action, ordering their direct troops through various channels to prepare to begin withdrawing from the Fort Knox camp.

This time, the EMP bombs dropped by the three artillery guns were mainly aimed at the National Treasury Building, and the underground headquarters of Fort Knox, its defense level is not comparable to that of the National Guard Air Force Base, where most of the electronic equipment is solidly wrapped with two layers of copper, so that the damage of the electromagnetic pulse can be minimized, so as to preserve part of the contact command ability.

Next, when the thousands of soldiers in the Fort Knox base, they hurriedly used all kinds of materials at hand instead of gas masks to cover their mouths and noses, and immediately began to move around in groups, with a burst of panic in the noise, and the scene of busy traffic was so lively!

At this moment, every car driving out of the base is basically crowded with soldiers, and everyone wants to leave this dangerous area as soon as possible, so it is good to be able to be faster for a second, as long as they see a vehicle passing by, the soldiers will climb up without saying a word, in short, all retreat actions are carried out in chaos.

Full-body chemical protective clothing, which is also a rare equipment in the US military, is not seen at all at the Fort Knox base at the moment.

As for the M50 gas mask, although it is equipped in a large area in the US Army, this is Fort Knox, not the camp of most of the trained troops, only carrying soldiers from all over the country who come lightly, and almost no one will carry the usual things like a burden, but the irony is that the soldiers never leave their combat uniforms, guns and steel helmets, but there is no protective significance at all.

The sound of shouts, horns, vehicle engines, in the underground base of Fort Knox, on the huge screen walls, each image is similar, all crowded with troops eager to leave.

In addition to these field troops who rushed to the National Armored Training Center, the original left-behind troops at the Fort Knox base, about 1,000 soldiers, they had the most complete set of equipment, so at this time, they put on M50s and divided into countless squads, all over the base to maintain order and coordinate a huge retreat.

At the same time, at an altitude of 8,000 meters, the three artillery heard the contact signal on the ground, and after knowing that Fort Knox was already carrying out a comprehensive retreat, the excited three artillery immediately asked the blonde woman to make contact, and let the waiting spiders and others dispatch, but unfortunately the signal had just been sent, and the EC-130E's airborne radar suddenly sounded.

"F16D, two, north high-speed approach medium and distance...... 100 km. In an instant, the renegade pilot announced the bad news to the three guns and others through the cabin broadcast.

As a result, the faces of the three guns and the gang immediately turned blue!

Everyone present understood that the main reason why the EC-130E was able to be such a wolf before, igniting and destroying at will at National Guard Air Force Base, Louisville and Fort Knox in a row was that the US military was caught off guard.

In the huge, crazy and well-thought-out plan of the three artillery, one round after another of attacks was used in the early stage, which successfully distracted most of the Pentagon's attention, but now the situation is different, the F16 fighter has caught up, and it is wishful thinking for the EC-130E to get out.

The EC-130E, which was transformed from the C130 Hercules, was powerless in the face of the F16D, whether it was to fight, flee or hide, so the faces of the three guns became so ugly.

"My lord, let's ......" The blonde woman sitting in front of the console, she just wanted to ask out loud, but the third cannon had already changed her face and regained her calm and announced: "Don't panic, everything is going according to our previous plan." ”

At this moment, the voice of the three guns sounded very calm, and this composure gradually infected the others, and the blonde woman turned around and was busy on the console.

The two pilots increased their flight speed to the limit, then turned on the autopilot system, and the personnel in charge of the electronic signaling, they changed the propaganda to an automatic loop, and then the rest of the crew in the cabin got up from their seats, carrying parachutes on their backs, disposing of nuclear bombs.

In a blink of an eye, when the two F16Ds quickly approached to a distance of 80 kilometers, she couldn't help but come to the cockpit, staring at the small screen of the airborne radar, looking at the two eye-catching green light spots behind the EC-130E.

"How much time do we have left?" she asked in a low voice.

"It's hard to judge, maybe 3 minutes, 10 minutes at most. The renegade pilot replied.

Then, the renegade pilot probably looked at the three guns with a puzzled expression, so he patiently explained: "According to the operation process of the US Air Force, the F16 will first ask our channel, and on the premise that we refuse to answer, the F16 will ask the superiors to get the permission of the Air Force Staff before firing at us, which will first take a process and a period of time." ”

"In addition, it depends on what weapons are carried on the F16, if it is the AIM-7 "Sparrow", then the F16 needs to chase closer and spend more time, but in case they carry the AIM-120 "Amram", then after three minutes, about 50 kilometers between the two sides, they will be able to fire at us. Next, the brown-haired man also explained a few words to Sanpao.

“…… Then we can't wait any longer, let's parachute right away, let the F16 chase this meat and bone!" After saying it immediately, she returned to the cargo hold from the cockpit, looking at the subordinates in front of her who were ready to parachute, the three guns didn't talk nonsense, picked up the parachute bag and walked to the tail door that was slowly opening.

A few seconds later, the three guns that had finished checking the umbrella bag let go of the rope net that their fingers were gripping tightly, so they jumped out of the cabin in the morning light, and followed closely behind the three guns, all the personnel on the EC-130E also jumped down one after another, quickly turned into a string of small black dots, and fell to a vast forest on the ground.
