Chapter 1 (Part I) Dark Blue Ice

Formerly Barcelona, Spain.

The new Port No. 1 has changed beyond recognition, and the last counteroffensive of the Global Resistance "Black Cross" operation, which began three days ago, has begun, and unlike before, this time the Global Resistance has dispatched most of its own aircraft, which can fly, carrying all kinds of weapons and explosives, and attacking the beachhead.

Bizarrely, the planes were not attacked before they flew to the dock, no artillery fire, no missiles, no crimson bullets, no attacks. The dock was also unusually quiet, and the attack formation did not attack, but risked flying directly inland, all the way through the city of Barcelona, and the plane in charge of reconnaissance and scanning did not encounter an attack when it flew at a low altitude, let alone half a figure.

At the same time, the Global Resistance infiltration mobile force of 50 people quietly landed from the coast and entered the Barcelona airport, the original plan was to feint and attack the air force of Shangdu Barcelona here, but in fact it was to advance inland, destroy the local power and water supply facilities, etc., and at the same time try to cut off the supply of the Shangdu Wehrmacht and the loyal army.

These fifty infiltration mobile groups are all veterans of the Resistance Army, with an average age of about thirty-seven or eighteen years old, originally soldiers from various countries, and after the apocalypse, these people have also participated in large and small resistance movements, most of them are elites who have survived the previous battles, have a certain understanding of the corpses, and know how to fight them.

This is also one of the few elite troops in the resistance, but when they entered the airport, they found that the fighter jets and transport planes in the airport were parked in place. The equipment was in good condition, but there was no fuel, and there was not half a person in the entire base, and this elite unit was safely stationed at the airport without consuming a single bullet at all.

At the same time, the headquarters of the Resistance Army also realized that this must be a conspiracy, but it had to be launched because it was impossible for the landing ships at sea to turn around and return, and at the same time, there were people in the upper echelons who believed that it was because of the previous battles that the director of the Shangdu side decided to pull the defensive line back to the original French territory. Temporarily abandon the former Spanish region. And now, it is the time when they are in Spain, and in any case, there are some facilities in Spain that can be used by them.

There is a power plant there. There are food factories. There is also a certain oil supply base. Places such as the Pyrenees are also rich in crops, and the Aragonese is one of the least polluted, as well as coal mines. Both developed and unexplored, it is a good location to stand on.

However, opponents of rash advance insisted that even if there was an abundance of goods there, entering this area would stretch the defensive line, and it would be better to retreat and concentrate on attacking the Arab region, which is the place where the oil is produced the most.

The two sides were at loggerheads, and in the end a vote was held in favor of a narrow victory in favor of continuing the offensive, and the Resistance headquarters had to give the order to carry out a landing operation, and immediately occupy Barcelona in full, using this area as a base and gradually advancing towards the Pyrenees.

The landing ship sailed into the harbor in the early morning without encountering any resistance, but just as the resistance soldiers were cheering, tragedy struck, dozens of mechanical lizards that could fire crimson bullets appeared in various locations on the dock, ignoring the fire of the surrounding resistance forces, with the assistance of the machinery, began to fire crimson bullets, and the wind was just heading towards the east, and the crimson bullets drifted directly towards the landing ship and the warship that had not yet come close to the sea.

The landing ships and warships had to evacuate immediately, throwing thousands of soldiers on the docks, although the soldiers were not attacked by the Shangdu Defense Army, but the weapons in their hands did not have much effect on those mechanical lizards, and they could only fire at these monsters with the assistance of tanks.

Finally, several mechanical lizards fell to the ground under the powerful firepower, but at the same time, in exchange for a large explosion, the power of the explosion was no less than the explosion of hundreds of crimson bullets at one time, and then one exploding mechanical lizard detonated other lizards, and the entire area along the dock became a sea of fire.

The soldiers who were lucky enough to escape either ran into the sea for their lives, or had to bury their heads in the city of Barcelona, but when they entered the city, they were confronted with the mixed forces of Shandu, which had been lurking in various buildings in the city for at least ten days, with the loyal army in front and the Wehrmacht behind, and once again drove the soldiers who had fled into the city in the direction of the docks.

At the same time, the Shandu transport plane that had taken off from Manresa and was carrying the two pieces of ice was flying over the city of Barcelona, and the accompanying flight formation, in addition to escorting the mission, was also preparing to carry out a devastating air attack on the Resistance landing fleet fleeing to the far sea.

The so-called warships of the resistance can be described as varied, all kinds of ships, landing ships, cruisers, destroyers, as long as they can find ships that can sail and carry arms, even ships that can be equipped with weapons and sail away, but among these ships, there are not many with all-round combat, and under the premise of no fighter escort, they are attacked by the air force of Shangdu, and if the other side bombs at a safe height, they can only run and wait for death.

The most advanced in this fleet is only the former US Navy Ticonderoga-class cruiser called "Countermeasures", which was originally supposed to escort aircraft carriers, but now it has become the main ship in this fleet, not to mention, there are two retired battleships that escort it, one is called "King Kong", and the other is called "Warhead", but King Kong has been burned by the flying crimson bullets, and it is difficult to even drive back, the captain is considering whether to abandon the ship, and the warhead is gradually drifting away because of mechanical failure that cannot find out the cause." Counter "cruisers.

However, the counter-cruiser faced the air force of Shangdu, or poured all the weapons on the ship to counterattack, and the same as the name of the ship, desperately countered, although it had some effect, but it still did not help the overall situation, but a missile launched on this cruiser almost hit the Shangdu transport plane loaded with two pieces of ice, although the transport plane urgently evaded, and threw a decoy bomb to make the missile miss, but when it avoided the second missile that continued to dodge the attack, it did a dive flight to continue to dodge the attack. Directly hit a crimson bullet floating in the air!

The nose of the transport plane hit the crimson bomb, the entire nose exploded instantly, and was directly wrapped in the flames of the crimson bomb, and then continued to roll 360 degrees in the air, and finally plunged into the offshore area, in the process of falling, the entire fuselage was also torn apart because it hit other planes, and the two pieces of ice in the cabin were also thrown out......

The battle did not end there, and the decision of the Shandu Defense Forces to move towards the beachhead was quickened, and there were still hundreds of members of the armored forces still struggling to support around the docks, avoiding the attacks of the exploding mechanical lizards, building a simple defensive line and still struggling to support, constantly calling for the support of the fleet, even a little artillery support on the battleship, which could relieve their pressure.

However, the fleet behind them had been completely defeated by the Shandu air force, and the resistance attack formation was also completely lost in the inland area.

So much so that later, this offensive and the "Black Cross" operation were called "traitor plans" by the Resistance soldiers, which of course is a more elegant way of saying it.

……

The dark blue ice floated on the sea, and the erosion of the sea water and the high temperature generated by the crimson bullets along the way caused the ice to melt gradually, finally revealing the Tang Shu Punishment that had been frozen in it for seven years.

When the waves pushed his body close to the beach, it was already three hours later, it was noon, and when the sun was blazing, the Shangdu Wehrmacht also temporarily stopped the attack, laughed and drank on the spot, shouted at the resistance troops who were still struggling to support in the direction of the beachhead, and from time to time fired at the direction of the beachhead with large-caliber mortars.

A team of five sent to the beachhead in search of heavy weapons appeared in the haze, and when they saw the blackened beach, they didn't believe what they had been through in the first few hours, and they didn't understand how they had survived those hours.

There was no way they could find any heavy weapons here, because everything here was burned to ashes and the waters along the coast were pitch black.

"! Nothing! If we had come an hour earlier, we would have been burned to ashes! "A soldier took off his steel helmet and threw it on the ground, his steel helmet was made in the UK, and several people next to him were wearing steel helmets made in different countries in the past, and the weapons they carried were also varied, not like the Shangdu Defense Forces, which used the AS01 assault rifle that Shangdu later rushed to make.

One of the soldiers spotted Tang Shuxing lying on the beach, pointed over there and said, "There seems to be someone over there." ”

"Leave it alone, it's definitely dead, no one will survive on the beach." Someone has already started to turn around and walk back.

"Let's go check it out, and one more person with a gun." Someone stepped forward.

The five of them gathered in front of Tang Shuxing, and someone saw the Yin Bee and the Dragon Lin Blade that he was holding tightly in both hands.

"This guy actually uses a sword? Was he a samurai who traveled back in time to the Middle Ages? The soldier joked and tried to take the sword away, but found that Tang Shuxing's fingers were wrapped around it like iron wire, and he couldn't break it even if he wanted to.

"It's out of gas, it's supposed to be dead." A soldier shook his head after probing Tang's snort and the arteries in his neck.

At this moment, a 120-caliber mortar shell landed on the beach only ten meters away from them, and although the sea water dissipated most of the attack, the shock wave still lifted Tang Shuxing and the five soldiers directly away.

Six of them rolled down on the other side of the beach, four of the five soldiers died on the spot, their flesh and blood were blurred by the debris, and the remaining one had half of his face blown to shreds and his eyes blinded by shrapnel.

His hand touched one corpse after another, and when he finally touched Tang Shuxing's face, he was about to take it away, Tang Shuxing's hand suddenly raised, grabbed his wrist, and opened his eyes at the same time, looking directly at the sun in the middle of the sky, flickering in the haze.
