Chapter 348: Fighting Alone
"Contact the troops behind us and have them meet us!" Cheng Yanqiu immediately shouted to the signal soldier, but after a while, the signal soldier ran over with a pale face and said to Cheng Yanqiu: "Less...... Young master, I can't contact the rear troops, and ...... You'd better take a look at the messages on the world's radio channels now. ”
Cheng Yanqiu and Qi Lin's faces changed slightly, and they hurriedly opened the world radio channel on Zhi Brain, at this time, the news on the channel had been completely swiped, and as the messages went on, Cheng Yanqiu and Qi Lin's faces became more and more ugly.
On the outskirts of Outpost 147, there is a tributary of the Lena River, which coincides with the thaw period of this tributary, and the daily drinking water of several genes in the vicinity is all taken from the river...... And those parasites poured a large number of parasitic worm eggs into the upper reaches of the river, and the worm eggs drifted with the waves, polluting all the water sources, and those players drank the river water containing the worm eggs, and they didn't even have to guess the next plot Qi Lin.
"This is a problem...... Not only the left and right flanks, but even the troops in our rear were all wiped out, more than 30,000 people, and only more than 100 people managed to escape back to the rear in the end......" Cheng Yanqiu's right hand was clenched tightly into a fist, and the green tendons on the back of his hand protruded.
"That is, we are surrounded, and there is no support - as for the parasites that surround us, counting the group in front of us, there are at least fifty thousand, right?" Qi Lin said.
Cheng Yanqiu nodded.
"So what are you going to do? Break out or hold on for help? ”
"The Consortium's advice to me was to wait for reinforcements, but they still don't know how many parasites we have to deal with - those who huddle in bunkers all day and only play tricks, can't even load their rifles, but never take the lives of soldiers seriously." Cheng Yanqiu pulled out a dagger and stabbed it hard into the gap in the wall tiles.
"But you're the heir of the consortium, can they watch you die here?"
"Yes, I am the heir to the consortium, but even my father cannot resist the resolutions voted by the board of directors, and although he has the right to veto three times a year, he will not use this power unless absolutely necessary."
Cheng Yanqiu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Cheng's Consortium...... Even within the Cheng family, there are many people who are wishing that I would die here, and it is better to be killed by parasitic worms, so that some incompetent guys can take this opportunity to take my place. ”
"Then if you retreat directly, they should have no way to take you, right?" Qi Lin asked.
"No, the 147th outpost is an important strategic point on the permafrost tundra, in order to take him from Lexing Aegis and Dessau, the consortium has paid a huge price, and now this strategic point has not created a penny of benefits for the consortium, if it is abandoned by me, some people will naturally take advantage of this topic to attack me and my father...... How could I possibly let that villain get his wish! ”
"Are you ready to defend it?"
"Of course it can't be, but at least you can't just leave, otherwise you'll definitely give those people a chance. I'll be here to delay the parasite's advance as long as I can, and when it's time to do so, I'll naturally retreat—but beyond that, I've got something to trouble you. ”
"What's the matter?" Qi Lin was stunned for a moment, but Cheng Yanqiu rarely spoke to himself in this tone.
"I need you to leave here with an elite team to escort Sophia and a batch of important materials."
Sophia was referring to the eldest lady of the Tianzhi Foundation, Cheng Yanqiu's fiancée - if the war situation deteriorated further, Cheng Yanqiu could choose to commit suicide and then resurrect to leave here, but he couldn't let this underage girl die with him.
Even if Sophia has many chances to resurrect, this will lead to a slight rift in the relationship between the Tianzhi Foundation and the Cheng Foundation - even the safety of his fiancée cannot be protected, how can Sophia's father rest assured that his daughter will be handed over to Cheng Yanqiu?
"Well, I see. If those guys say you're running away, you can just record the battle on the front line and throw the tape in their faces. Qi Lin said.
"Well, I will—the vehicle is ready for you, Karachev and 45 will leave with twenty of my elite fighters with you, and you will have supreme command of the convoy during the breakout." Cheng Yanqiu stuffed a metal card to Qi Lin, this card was not only a symbol of status, but also stored a large amount of important information in the permafrost tundra war zone.
After more than a dozen rounds of bombardment, all the shells stored inside Post 147 have been depleted, and now all players can do is hold their breath and wait for these parasites to come into range of the machine guns.
Qi Lin ran to the square of the central fortress, where a convoy preparing to break through was already waiting for him.
The convoy consisted of a BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicle and two Humvees to clear the way, with Sophia and the Tenzen Foundation escort sitting on the Humvee in the middle, and Persephone, Karachev, and the girl known as "45" sitting in the Humvee in the back.
Both Humvees were equipped with Minegon revolvers, and most of the convoy members were armed with machine guns and other weapons with a large amount of ammunition.
Qi Lin jumped into the second off-road vehicle, and at this time, the machine gun sound of the first line of defense in the distance had already sounded.
"Let's go, break through!"
The engines of the three cars started in turn, and along the main road of the central fortress, rushed out from the west gate.
Although the base behind the 147 post has also fallen, it is relatively late compared to the left and right flanks, so it is very likely that those parasites have not gathered to form a "black tide", and Qi Lin is going to take advantage of this opportunity to pass through the middle!
The accelerators of the three cars were all stepped on by the driver and they were speeding forward in the wilderness, while Qi Lin was holding a 20-inch barrel sniper HK417, constantly sniping the parasites attracted by the convoy through accurate point shots.
The number of parasites in this direction is not very large, but with the passage of time, a large number of parasitic worm eggs are hatched in the fallen base behind the 147 outpost, and Cheng Yanqiu and they will eventually fall into a heavy siege.
And if Qi Lin and they didn't rush over before that...... It will also be trapped by these newly generated parasites......
