On the tactical screen, the location of the three layers of cover flashes red. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info This represents a confirmation by the divisional command that the target is a priority strike item.

Both of us retreated all the way, and we avoided the enemy early. Not only me, but even Lincoln didn't want to do more killing.

Could it be the influence of Lao Mai's sentence, "I'm tired"?

The retreat route was supposed to pass through the defense zone of the three platoons, but on the tactical map, it was marked as an enemy-occupied area.

We had to make a detour, and we happened to run into Platoon Commander Nguyen and others who had been transferred from other positions.

Looking at the team of less than ten people following behind the platoon leader, I didn't need to ask to know, our second platoon was almost gone.

This is a platoon composed of heroes who have made meritorious contributions on the battlefield, and before the battle is over, the unit should almost be withdrawn.

Nameless sorrow welled up in my heart, and I covered my head to follow the brigade, and I was in a bad mood to greet my familiar comrades.

Platoon Commander Nguyen passed by me and patted me on the shoulder.

He's not a man of many words, and this move is enough for me.

It's good that the chief knows that our class is not easy.

Unexpectedly, I found that there were not only "my own people" in the second row, but also guys carrying boxes like Staff Officer Jin.

They are at the heart of the team, stopping from time to time to activate the device to detect something.

Whenever they stopped, the second platoon took a vigilant posture, and it was clear that our platoon's task was to protect and assist them.

Out of curiosity, I approached the past. A bald officer without a helmet directs several people to work nervously around the box.

"The enemy's electromagnetic interference spectrum has changed again, this time covering a wide range of frequency bands including ordinary spectrum and specific waves." , through the armor, see a thin and pale face, he is undoubtedly a technical soldier.

"Well, as expected, the enemy has discovered that we are manipulating the interference, a full 12 hours faster than expected. However, they don't know the pedigree distribution used by frequency hopping, and they just want to use guessing to break up our frequency hopping joint modulation tactics, huh! The beauty of thinking. Surveillance is maintained, and interference situation analysis is conducted every fifteen minutes. ”

The bald officer did not have a rank mark on him, presumably for fear of being targeted by snipers.

But looking at his commanding style, I don't know that he is a sniper of the leader, and there must be something wrong with his brain.

"Platoon Commander Ruan, please use the dislocation dual-phase encryption method to connect the theater-level data link, upload the electromagnetic interference situation distribution you just captured, and I have given you a temporary access authorization for five minutes."

"Yes." After the platoon commander answered succinctly, he left to carry out the order.

While eavesdropping, I was excited.

The bald officer is more important than I thought, is it a colonel?

Authorize the platoon commander to access the theater data link, he is at least a big man at the level of the theater command.

Maybe a staff officer in a war zone. At least a cadre at the division level, and the minimum military rank is also a colonel, so it's still a colonel, or even a brigadier general.

"Sir, the information on the distribution of the situation in the campaign area has been collected, and the completion rate of the prediction of the development trend of the enemy's situation has exceeded 80%, and the basic conditions for a sudden firepower attack have been met, please instruct."

Although the distance between the helmet and the distance made some of the reports untrue, I knew that this was a young woman, and she was reporting something terrible.

The fire strike cluster, which was on standby in the rear, was finally about to be launched.

Since the beginning of the war, there have been few actions in which we have taken the initiative to attack, and a rare mobile assault was overwhelmed by the enemy with the same mobile assault tactics.

Up to now, the battle has been going on all day long, except for defense is to block, or to change positions and then block. It feels like being beaten all day long, and there is no strength to fight back, so people can be aggrieved.

This time it is different, once the carefully preserved firepower strike cluster is launched, and then the superiority in information warfare is used.

It's perfectly possible to make a beautiful turnaround.

Since even I, a halfway monk, can see it, others are naturally aware of the situation.

Although the team suffered a lot of losses, the morale was very high, and this is why.

Patronizing the excitement, I didn't know exactly when to carry out the fire strike, which made me regret it for a while.

It's not easy to ask about this kind of thing.

I kept secretly pumping myself in the mouth. Worse than useless.

After the bald officers had finished their observations, we moved on.

I inquired with the platoon commander and learned that their destination was the same as ours, and they were all positions on the elevated road.

I know it's just a coincidence, but I'm still proud. The key pivotal position of the battle was captured by our squad, and it was difficult not to get excited.

After a while, the bald man came to me, saying that he wanted to understand the situation.

I'm suspicious, such a big man, when he asks me something, the data of the terminal is updated.

In the personnel column, Lao Mai's avatar turned dark red.

He finally rested.

Thinking of going all the way, there are many places to rely on Lao Mai.

Without him, our squad might have been reimbursed for the first engagement.

Individuals who were fine yesterday are no longer in the same world.

I couldn't help but feel sad.

I wanted to cry but there were no tears.

Facing the bald officer, my emotions had not yet recovered.

To be honest, the bald officer actually looks like a talent. The face is angular and very leader-like.

In normal times, such a big man has to stammer, maybe a word from others can save years of hardship.

It's a pity that I'm in a bad mood, and I even have a bad attitude towards my superiors.

Standing there loosely, without taking off his hat or saluting, he looked like a ruffian.

I noticed the faces of the people around him, but I didn't care. Seeing too much life and death, fame, fortune and power, it doesn't matter.

The bald head didn't seem to care, and waved his hand, motioning for us to walk side by side.

"It is said that you have discovered the location of what appears to be the enemy's mobile headquarters."

His attitude is surprisingly kind, is he trying to win me over?

"I didn't find out, it was Max. He took out a big guy, at least a colonel. Then the enemy pursued him relentlessly, seeing that this posture was a full-time guard unit. Since the guards are all there, the command is not far away. ”

I had no intention of taking credit from Lao Mai, so I hurriedly corrected the bald head's speech disease.

"Oh, do you have any evidence that it's Mobile Command? While the infantry company besieging you is a bit special and equipped with heavy chariot support, that doesn't mean there is a mobile command there. You know, we have limited long-range firepower......"

"I don't have any evidence to ask for, the details have been uploaded, and the specific judgment is up to you."

I interrupted him impatiently.

It doesn't matter to me whether that unit is a guard company or not. As long as the artillery strikes wipe out the place and avenge Max, I don't care about the rest.

"How do you speak? Do you know who you're talking to? ”

Listening to the voice is the previous technician.

My fire was blazing.

"How to talk!? Lao Tzu just talks like this, and everyone talks like this in front of me. Tell you, Lao Tzu didn't coax me in front of the general......"

"You repeat, lawlessness......"

Our clamor drew the platoon commander.

A dark face and faint eyes will make people involuntarily furious when they stare at you.

After a few glances from him, I and the technician quieted down.

"You're right, the judgment is indeed our responsibility here, and I'm really embarrassed to ask what you shouldn't ask."

The bald head is surprisingly easy-going, but it makes me embarrassed, and I can't do it with the posture of a ruffian.

"It's my attitude that's wrong. The brother who sniped the big man was gone just now, and he was in a bad mood. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I understand. By the way, I read your information, but it's the nemesis of attack aircraft! An enemy attack aircraft that is lost in your hands, or who are unlucky because of you, is enough to form two squadrons. ”

I didn't expect him to come up and compliment, and I felt a fever on my face. But I know a little in my heart, this is his way of communicating with his subordinates, and he doesn't really want to win me over or anything.

"It's just luck, if you encounter it a few more times, you will definitely hang up."

Even I felt a little pretended. Sure enough, there was an unpleasant snort behind me, but I just didn't hear it.

"That's right, our army now has the power of electromagnetism for the time being, and has the ability to strike and inflict heavy damage on the enemy at any time, but this is only for the army. Our attack aircraft units are struggling against the enemy, and it is believed that the situation will not improve even with the assistance of information links. ”

The bald head frowned at this point. I knew he hadn't finished yet, so I listened quietly.

"Without the assistance of air assaults, our success would have ended there. The importance of victory is also downgraded from the campaign level to the battle level. I would like you to give advice on the weakness of enemy attack aircraft and the like from the point of view of a combat expert. ”

“……”

Seeing that I was silent, the bald head emphasized: "This is not an order, just a hope, I hope you will speak out." ”

I smiled apologetically, spread my arms, and shook my head.

The look of disappointment on the bald face flickered, and then he changed the subject.

I really admire his ability to liven up the atmosphere.

It seems that the big guys are not just sitting there and giving orders, but I don't have the ability to control the rhythm of the conversation like this.

"Even if it is possible to achieve air superiority. Inflict heavy damage on current enemy army units with long-range firepower and extend the results. Actually, it doesn't mean much. They will send reinforcements soon. Within two days, the situation would turn back to what it was before the attack. And frequency hopping joint adjustment is impossible to maintain for a long time, Proxima Centauri can finally see the clues, and then we will be beaten passively. ”

"So how do you change the situation? The enemy has the power to control the universe, and can dispatch troops through the space-base, and no matter how bad it is, it can open up the situation from the orbit. If you look at it this way, we will be beaten whatever we do! ”

I was all scared by my own words. That's not really my opinion, but Edlaide's.

He had a lot of ink in his belly, and he had discussed the situation with him, and finally came to the conclusion that the situation on Mars was a dead end without outside help.

I remember being depressed for several days because of this conclusion.

The bald head looked at me in surprise.

"You are a double combat hero, your point of view is thorough and to the point. Just having that insight is material for an officer. ”

I was said to have a weak heart.

I felt more and more sorry for Edred's death.

Without this war, he would have been the most accomplished of our people.

Maybe he'll become a general.

It's a pity that with a round of machine guns, such a person was killed there. On the contrary, I, a guy who doesn't understand anything, can live to fool others.

It's fate.

"It's really as he said, why should we resist, just surrender!"

The technologist clearly didn't like my point of view, and he couldn't refute it, and there was a cry in his voice.

I felt a little sympathy for him, because my reaction to Edlaide's conclusion was not much better.

"Surrender when the situation is bad? Then why are you still in the army? Why don't you flee to the inner solar system as soon as possible? ”

The caustic words came from Platoon Commander Nguyen. That kind of sharpness and evil spirit, not only in his eyes, but also his words are murderous, which makes people shudder.

“……”

"It's a grim situation, but that doesn't mean we're going to fail. It was a big mistake to lose the right to control the universe, which led to the current situation. But it's not a failure. ”

The sound of an explosion came from the front, and we immediately stopped the conversation and found a place to hide.

The exchange of fire was brief and intense, interspersed with the roar of howitzers and infantry recoilless guns.

I checked the tactical terminal and knew that it was a friendly unit clearing the enemy of the remnants of the enemy in the position.

In less than five minutes, the area turned green on the tactical map.

The team set off again.

"I think everyone knows the news that the main fleet is being assembled. This is actually not the best news. ”

The bald head smiled slightly after seeing our reaction.

"I have the latest information here, it's not classified anymore, so it's okay to tell you. The latest intelligence shows that the Martian garrison fleet, which was thought to have collapsed a long time ago, has not actually been destroyed. They are still holding out their resistance. ”

"This ...... This means ......"

The technical soldier was so excited that he couldn't even speak.

"It means that the enemy hasn't really gained Domination, and we have more options."

The style of the platoon commander is like this, like a cheetah, always in a state of being in the moment before launching. Simple and straightforward.

"Exactly!"

With a snap of his hands, the bald expression became excited.

"We have more principles, and the situation is much better than expected. Don't underestimate the garrison fleet, as long as they exist, Proxima Centauri can't really go all out for a landing operation. Although they have the advantage for the time being, their bullets will hit one less and missiles with one less, and the soldiers will fight less and less. And our army does not have such problems. Mars is a huge supply base, and even if it is badly damaged, there are still supplies to support the army for several years. With space power, we can deal with the enemy in all directions, resolutely resist on the surface of the planet, and attack and harass in space. You may not see the effect in a month or two, but how about a year or two? Can Proxima Centauri's productivity keep up with the demand for light-years of ultra-long supply lines? Even if they keep up temporarily, how long can they maintain it, and the economy of their galaxy will be over. Even if our main fleet doesn't come, it will consume the aliens! ”

After speaking, the bald head used expletives.

But I don't think he's vulgar at all. He painted a seductive picture that gave me the first time since the beginning of the war the dawn of victory.

Although what he said was to consume and delay time with the enemy, this was hope after all, and it was a hope that was a thousand times better than despair.
