Chapter 407: A Real Straw
The last straw was a photo of Joey's body.
The photo of the air thief leader wearing a combat uniform and showing his unwillingness was used to use the hob meat in the center of the space station to restart the backup interval after this battle, and sent it to various monitoring screens.
Although the leader of the air pirates sitting at the Lexa Space headquarters is still desperately shouting that it was faked by "PS", the video of Joey's personal escort Atai sitting in the "Tarantula" mecha and killing all sides is not fake.
The central brain was captured, and nearly 2,000 mecha on the periphery attacked wildly, but nearly 1,000 mecha of Arthur's "external attack team" did not move, and at this moment, the Decepticon who had been unable to contact was already a corpse, and Atai, who belonged to the high-level, became one of the enemiesγγγγγ
At this time, Tang Lang timely issued an announcement in the name of the supreme commander of the "Immortal Bird Legion" to all locations in the Lexar space station that could receive information: all soldiers who gave up armed resistance, no matter how serious their previous sins were, could be pardoned, and their families would not be implicated, if they were willing to join the "Immortal Bird Legion" after screening, their families could continue to live on the Lexa space station or the planets under the control of the "Undead Bird Legion", and those who were unwilling to join the "Undead Bird Legion" could go to live on other planets; Diehards who resist to the end will not accept surrender after 10 minutes, and their family and friends will be sent to work on the planet.
After the announcement, the Lexa space station fell into a brief lull, and the onslaught on the front line came to a temporary halt.
Everyone is waiting for their final outcome.
Tang Lang was also waiting.
Although ten minutes gave the Lexar space station pirates a certain respite, they may be able to use these ten minutes to better deploy their forces to consolidate their positions, which will bring more difficulties to the next battle. But all this, Tang Lang thinks it's worth it.
The Lexar space station is worthy of being the largest air pirate gang in the meteorite star field, not only has sufficient troops, but also has a strong ability of its mecha division, in just over an hour of fighting, according to Shen Chengfeng's battle report, nearly 200 mecha were damaged, and more than 150 mecha divisions were killed on the spot, and that was the result of the siege of superior forces.
If you ignore the fierce attack, even if you can kill all the mechs that resist, I am afraid that if this battle is over, the "Immortal Bird Legion" will soon become half dead. It's not that he's afraid of sacrifice, it's just that Tang Lang is more stubborn that it's not worth wasting the precious lives of the warriors in the resource battle with a group of air pirates, most of whom haven't even had the opportunity to put on the official military uniform of the Southwest Federation.
Perhaps for a long time, their list will not even be on the list of fallen soldiers of the Federal Military Service.
In order to minimize casualties, Tang Lang, who commanded such a large-scale battle for the first time, had to choose to take a risk.
Tang Lang's face remained unchanged, but his eyes were unprecedentedly anxious, and all of this fell in the eyes of Taishan, the newly appointed Major of the Forward Battalion.
Tang Lang was undoubtedly an extremely powerful and fearless mecha warrior, as he had already proven with the blood of many enemies. But at this moment, he is a commander, in a word, I don't know how many people will go to death.
Whether it was his own people or enemies, many people's lives were in the thoughts of this young commander.
From the perspective of a pure soldier, "it is advisable to chase the poor bravely, and not to sell the name and learn the overlord" is the best way to deal with it, no matter how much the final battle loss is, victory can cover all discordant factors. But Tang Lang made the most difficult choice at this time, and issued the final announcement, leaving the opponent with extremely valuable time to adjust, if the opponent continued to die, perhaps the casualties would be even more severe.
The consequences were absolutely devastating, with more casualties among fighters and a complete reduction in trust in commanders. Perhaps after this battle, the young commander's command career was cut short.
The battlefield doesn't give you a chance to do it all over again. Taishan, who was born in the federal army, deeply understands that the federal army is strictly disciplined, and even if he is a general, he must be responsible for command mistakes.
Tang Lang gave up the simpler way of not taking responsibility, and chose such an ultimatum that was almost gambling, hoping to surrender without a fight, which was a kind of stupidity. But for Tarzan, it's more about moving.
Instinctively, he is a soldier of the Federation, and must unconditionally carry out all the decisions of the Federation. But he is not a machine, he is a man, having lived in one place for almost twenty years, how can he not have feelings for this land and the people of this land? Intellectually told him that all those who dared to pick up knives and guns here were enemies, but some of them were also friends with whom he drank and ate meat day and night!
Tang Lang's so-called "woman's benevolence", in Taishan's view, is the most in line with his state of mind.
Of course, more importantly, as a soldier, it is certainly glorious to be under a commander who kills boldly, but behind the heroic name of this commander is the white bones of his comrades, which is naturally very difficult to feel close. And a commander like Tang Lang, who hides infinite awe of life under the coldness, can actually make a warrior like Taishan return to his heart.
At least, at this moment, Tarzan felt that he was not wrong in what he said earlier: it is an honor to fight side by side with you. If he can, he hopes to stay here and fight alongside Tang Lang.
In fact, it is not only Taishan who has this anxiety.
This kind of worry and even dissatisfaction with Tang Lang is common among many high-level leaders of the Independent League, but many dissatisfied communications have been forced by Shen Chengfeng.
In the eyes of many people who don't know Tang Lang, Tang Lang is gambling, but only Shen Chengfeng, who has fought side by side with Tang Lang, doesn't see it that way. He knew very well that his little brother, who was not very old but did things extremely spicy, would not make this decision without more than 70% certainty.
Anyone who underestimates him will be slapped in the face by the facts, on the Rafi Star, I don't know how many Jeppen people have suffered his big losses because of this, including the Jeppen "Flower of Famous Generals" who appeared on the battlefield like a demon god, arrogant as he was not beaten like a dog?
The truth is just as Shen Chengfeng imagined.
The clock only passed less than 8 minutes, the white flag representing surrender was raised at the headquarters of the Lexar space station, one by one the mechs walked out of the battle position, put down the combat knives in their hands, the mecha division walked out of the cockpit, and the rows of heavy infantry disarmed the mechanical exoskeleton and put down the heavy machine guns in their hands and walked out of the gate of the alloy wall.
With a leader of the air thieves who was tied up by a large number of flowers being carried out of the gate by several people, it was a foregone conclusion that the Lexar space station headquarters would be the first to be conquered.
Tang Lang, who breathed a sigh of relief, led 22 mecha to receive Toucheng.
Hob Meat quickly broadcasts this image to all parts of the station.
Like a collapsed domino, white flags were raised one after another on the defensive positions on the front line, and groups of mechs controlled the mechs out of the positions.
When Shen Chengfeng issued the order for a general attack, there were only two or three positions that could still resist, and after more than a thousand mechs charged, the few resistances were almost none, and they were completely calm.
The surrendered air pirates accounted for a terrible ninety percent.
And afterwards, the interrogation of several air pirates at the space station headquarters who tied up their own commanders and surrendered also proved that Tang Lang was not simply a "woman's kindness", before announcing Joey's death, he used an open 22vs46 but one-sided battle to shatter the confidence of the air pirates in the space station headquarters.
In front of the special mecha team that gathered more than 70 percent of the elite of the independent regiment, the 46 mechs were like chickens and dogs, and it took less than two minutes to wipe out all of them. From that moment on, the pirates had lost all faith in victory.
Joey's death was just the straw that broke the camel's back. If it weren't for the fact that the commander who was tied up by the five flowers was still stubbornly resisting, it is estimated that they would have surrendered without Tang Lang issuing a final announcement.
The reason why I waited for 8 minutes was the time it took for several leaders to take the opportunity to enter the headquarters to report and tie him up.
Fortunately, I hurried and hurried, and finally delivered a big gift before the deadline.
As for the guy who had been kidnapped by his subordinates as a voter, no one was interested in asking him why he was so stubborn, and the fat man only moved his "little feet" slightly, and trampled him into a puddle of human blood.
The big guys are all "thieves" now, just for some resources, and it's not some kind of defending the country, what are you doing to be so heroic? Since this is the case, let's go to hell with Joey the dead ghost and give each other a thumbs up! Don't look at the fat man's usual smile, in fact, he is also a ruthless person in his bones.
At least, in the eyes of the surrendered air pirates.
In the future, no matter how obscene the fat man behaved, none of the soldiers of the Independent Regiment who fought under his command from the air pirates dared to discount his orders.
In fact, the scene when a certain fat man seemed to casually trample a certain "hero" commander into a bloody place left a deep impression on them.
The end of the entire battle, because of Tang Lang's gambling order, ended more than 8 hours earlier than originally planned, and it only took three hours to wipe out all resistance.
Yu Chijian, Xiao Accord and Chen Shi were appointed as the defense chiefs of the three directions in the Lexa space station, and each led two mecha battalions to be responsible for the outer defense of the space station.
Arthur, the first commander of Surrender, was first appointed by Tang Lang as the commander of the seventh battalion of the "Immortal Bird Legion", leading the 150 mecha assigned to him and the 120 mecha of his own original headquarters to inventory all the remnants of the Lexar space station, while Owen and the fat man took more than a dozen informed air pirates and 100 mechs to inventory the assets in the Lexar space station.
Shen Chengfeng is responsible for the outer space defense of the space station, and the seven starships are still fully armed and staying in the void at a distance of 300,000 kilometers from the space station, and the large-caliber energy cannons that are being repaired one by one can support them.
However, Tang Lang and Atai were stationed at the headquarters of the space station to screen and select the big and small leaders of the air pirates who surrendered to Cheng.
This time, the capture of the Lexa space station is not only a material gain, but also a mecha warrior.
After selection, the strength of the "Legion of the Undead Birds" will swell to a mecha division or more.
