"What about the damage?" Since he felt that there was nothing unusual about his body, and there was no warning from the power armor body self-inspection system, Lin Hai simply sat up, although his head was still a little dizzy, he couldn't lie down at this time.

"The frigate responsible for towing the second boarding compartment was destroyed by the explosion, along with the twenty crew members on it, evaporated in the explosion, and a third of the structure of the 'Leviathan' was lost in the explosion and martyrdom, and even if it did not explode, it could basically be regarded as having lost its repair value and could be scrapped. The loss of personnel on board is still being counted, but the orbital assault team that was originally carried on it has been able to determine that two-thirds of the casualties have been determined. ”

Hearing this news, Lin Hai felt a wave of dizziness hit him again. The ones who can be arranged on the flagship, whether it is the crew or the Marine Corps, must be the most elite, and now he has lost so much in vain, and his heart aches.

"What about Major General Tagate? I heard that he was injured too? ”

"The bridge crew has always had a seat belt to hold themselves in place, and even if they were unconscious, they did not suffer much damage, so they were the least damaged in the whole accident, and the rear admiral was able to take over the command immediately after arriving at the ship."

"It wasn't an accident, it was an attack." Lin Hai unlocked this set of armor on his body, even if he was not too seriously damaged, but Lin Hai still planned to change to a set of intact power armor such a special armor He has more than one set to keep himself in the best condition at any time, so as to deal with all kinds of sudden crises at any time, which is one of the experiences he has summed up in various situations these days, "Is there any movement on the side of the Sijing people?" And what about the first boarding cabin? Did it self-destruct too? ”

"No, sir." Major Coan, who had temporarily taken over command from Major General Tagate, replied, "The first boarding cabin is still under our security control. According to Rear Admiral Targate, the bombs inside should have been removed from the Leviathan by the invading troops of the Sijing people, and then captured by our side. Fortunately, the bomb did not explode, nor was it affected by the power department's detonation, otherwise the entire starship would have been completely destroyed, instead of just being badly damaged and abandoned as it is now. ”

"I'm really lucky, otherwise I would have died." Moved his limbs twice, reaffirmed that his body was fine, although a deeper body scan was needed to determine that he had changed into another set of heavy commander-type power armor, and initiated the self-inspection process, "Hand those two things over to Dr. Kane's research team, and ask them to prioritize the improved stealth technology of the Sjerry." Also, know the reason for the sudden explosion of the second boarding cabin? ”

"The handover of the samples is already underway, and as for the cause of the explosion, the preliminary speculation is that the bomb carried on the second boarding compartment was towed away from the flagship because of the boarding compartment, and it also made the bomb out of the range of signal interference on the flagship, and it could not be suppressed to cause the explosion. The Leviathan's jamming signal works in a wide range, and the frigate itself in charge of towing is also using jamming equipment to suppress the bomb's remote control equipment, so the specific reason will have to wait until the research department studies another bomb that has been safely controlled by us. ”

"Maybe the one that exploded was timed to detonate?" Lin Hai said with a smile, "Stop surrounding me!" Go to the bridge, get me the telecommunication equipment ready, I'm going to make contact with the ground! ”

In Calle City, the time has already fallen into the night, even if the rebels have a lot of night vision equipment, at this time the frequency of attacks has also been reduced, not everyone can adapt to night operations, that requires not only equipment, but also corresponding experience and training, not to mention that the government army and the GDI troops mixed in it have the same conditions, and night battles are even more unfriendly to the rebels.

The rebels slowed down their offensive, and the remaining government forces were given more respite, giving them time to readjust, reconnect, resupply, and expect more support from what might be available.

But everyone knows that in the face of the rebels who have been planning for a long time and are more prepared, the government forces in Kahler are completely at a disadvantage, and if reinforcements do not appear in time, they will not survive the second day, even if the elite GDI troops are assisting in the battle.

That elite GDI force was too small to hold a city of 100,000 inhabitants.

"Haven't you made contact with HQ yet?" Liu Yan and some of his men were hiding in a hotel building that had been damaged in the exchange of fire between government and rebels, who had previously assisted some government strongholds in holding their defensive areas, but now they had left those strongholds after nightfall, looking for more fighters and joining up with the last platoon of the company.

Although the situation is unfavorable to the government army, in Liu Yan's view, as long as he gathers his last platoon, whether it is to break through or continue to hold the city, it can change with the change of the situation. Of course, if you can get in touch with the higher echelons and get more aid during this period, then the GDI forces alone can also repel the rebels.

Unfortunately, so far, although the Auger attack aircraft team belonging to his special combat battalion has successfully found and destroyed two sources of signal interference, there are still interference sources, so that the communication of the entire Kahler area has not been fully restored, and he has not been able to restore communication with higher command departments and obtain support from the top.

"For the time being, I can only barely communicate with the transport plane for a short time, and the communication with the second platoon is also intermittent." The commander of the third platoon replied, "The standard communication equipment equipped by each platoon is still not comparable with the communication equipment on the transport plane, and the work of liaising with the second platoon can only be conveyed by the transport fleet for the time being." As for liaising with the entire theater commander or even the general headquarters, it is even more impossible. ”

"I didn't expect the Sijing people to provide so many communication jamming equipment to the rebels here, and it was not enough to destroy two!" As soon as he said this, Liu Yan was quite annoyed, as far as he knew, he couldn't figure out what the value of this area was, worthy of the Sijing people, and those bastards of the Holy Brotherhood, would put so much effort into the local rebels to support them, "This is just a desert, except for the oil that is about to be mined, what's the use of getting here?" ”

"Maybe it's for the strategic location here?" The third platoon commander doubted, and he was also doubting this, "It's just that everyone has long-range strategic projection capabilities, even if they control the entire Middle East, they can neither cut off the material transportation channels of the three continents, nor can they bring any benefits to themselves?" ”

"Maybe there's a plan going on somewhere we don't know." Liu Yan speculated, "Controlling the entire Middle East is just part of their plan?" ”

"Then we're going to have to sabotage their plans." The third platoon commander said, "It's just that I don't know how much attention will be paid to the battle here?" It's all messed up like this, and there's no movement on it after we can't be contacted, which is very unusual. There are so many satellites floating in the sky. ”

"That's why I'm in such a hurry." Liu Yan shook his head and said, "The consumption of our special ammunition is serious, it is less than two percent, and those missiles are not even one percent, and there are not many power armor batteries left. Not to mention anything about equipment performance suppression! So far, there have been no casualties, but we are afraid that we will soon suffer heavy losses! I really hope to join up with the second platoon right away, they don't have as many battles as we do, and they have more residual supplies! ”

"How about the rest of our battalion who stayed in the base, call them over?" The third platoon commander suggested, "Now we are afraid that we can no longer care about monitoring the Sandru base and keeping an eye on the work of Major General Carlson, we have problems of our own now, rather than letting the main force of the whole battalion stay at the Sandru base all the time and do nothing, it is better to let them bring supplies to reinforce here, maybe our special combat battalion alone can repel the rebels here." ”

"I'm just having a headache!" Hearing this suggestion, Liu Yan immediately had a tangled expression on his face, "Kale City has become like this, but the GDI garrison at Sandru Base has not reacted at all, which can only prove that there must be a big problem there." If the rest of our battalion's personnel, equipment, and supplies are withdrawn, I am afraid that Major General Carlson will make some big moves in the next moment! But if we don't bring our people here, it's hard for us to continue fighting on our own! ”

"The problem is that even if our entire battalion is still at the Sandru base, Carlson has nearly 10,000 troops in his hands, and it is not too difficult to solve our more than 1,000 people, after all, we are not using the best equipment at present, and the GDI troops in his hands are using GDI general standard equipment, and there is not much gap in equipment."

"That's right, it's because of this, I don't dare to transfer people easily, once I leave Sandru, Carlsen, who doesn't have to worry about throwing rats, is fully capable of exterminating our people in the wild! The troops in his hands are heavy field troops, not ordinary security forces, even if we have a full set of equipment for our own use, it will not be easy to face so many enemies. Liu Yan said, "It's just that it's useless for us to think too much at the moment, there are too many variables on the battlefield, let's make sure that we can survive first." After converging the second platoon, we will try a decapitation operation to see if we can take out the rebels' command in this place, if it can be done, the battle here will still have to be fought, if not, we can only break out first, contact the higher command center and then try to counterattack, of course, the premise is that the above still wants to continue to assist the government in this area. ”

"The scout is back." While Liu Yan was talking with his subordinate officers, a sergeant quietly appeared beside them and reported to them, "The rebel forces are currently mainly concentrated near the government positions, and we can continue to advance." ”

"Very good, the light infantry open the way, the hoplite palace, we are short of ammunition, try not to exchange fire with the rebels, avoid it if you can, and try to solve them with knives if you can't avoid it." Hearing this report, Lin Hai got up, closed the power armor body armor shell, and gave an order, "The second platoon is not too far away from us, if you are lucky, you can meet them in half an hour." ”
