Ninety-three ghost warriors who took the exam teleported to a hidden woodland with Azhe. Because the open area is generally occupied by the native army, it is also easy to be exposed. After all, the sudden appearance of his own troops in the open field is easy to be suspicious. But once the fight starts, the native army will not have time to take care of itself, an unknown army that is also here to kill insects.
"Each team confirms its own armament and supplies. You must know that you only have a total of 500 units of weapons to supply, although this is enough for a long time in a conventional war, but in the face of the tactics of the sea of worms, you should know that these weapons and ammunition are not even enough for a positional battle. So don't give up these supplies lightly. ”
Originally, these things had been taught many times in the Ghost Academy. But Ah Zhe, who has always been the shopkeeper, is a little uneasy about these little ones who have just been trained for less than a year. It can be said that every ghost soldier here is a genius among geniuses. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to learn so much combat theory and scientific knowledge in less than a year. But genius is inevitably arrogant. In order to try to prevent these young warriors from making mistakes, Ah Zhe had to tell him again.
But Ah Zhe's worries are obviously a little unnecessary. The young warriors calmly checked their equipment and counted their supplies. You know, in the training subjects of the Ghost Academy, they face more enemies than just humans. More often than not, they are faced with various alien shapes and unconventional life forms. Even when confronted with these virtual enemies, there is no information at all to indicate the threat and attack methods of the other side. Therefore, they will not take it lightly when facing any enemy. Brutal training and rigorous education allow them to face any unknown threat with ease. Not to mention these enemies who have already given specific information.
"Team 1 checked-in"
"Team 2 inspection completed"
“”
Soon the teams were all checking their supplies. Before they knew it, these young warriors were ready to form a team and redistribute supplies. They are divided into teams of every ten groups, for a total of three teams. The remaining squad is an emergency force that is ready to support the squad in danger. They did not set up the position of commander-in-chief, after all, they came to do the promotion assessment this time. Therefore, all actions are developed by the command.
Ah Zhe joined this assessment for two purposes. The first is to see how this group of young soldiers, who are fueled with accelerated fertilizer, are doing. The second is to consolidate your pilot strength.
"Connected Command Center"
"Tactical command center to wire. Hello! Commander, I'm Eluna from the Ghost Academy's Battlefield Intelligence Section. ”
A very demure girl appeared on Ah Zhe's display screen with a smile on her face.
"Huh? Wasn't this operation planned by the command? ”
"That's how it should be. However, Colonel Bryce rejects this decision, and you take command of the field instead. The girl always keeps a faint smile when she speaks, which makes people feel relaxed.
"Selubelia," Ah Zhe smiled helplessly. It seems that the other party is very dissatisfied with the fact that he often does the shopkeeper.
"Well, I already know why. Now, please start providing battlefield information support to our department. ”
"Understood! Battlefield scanning has begun on the current home army defense line to make contact with the BETA. But the outcome of the battle can almost be said to be one-sided. According to the calculations of the General Staff, I am afraid that the authority will be defeated in no more than half an hour. ”
"Send me a map of the battlefield terrain. It seems that it is too late to go to the front line to support. We set up a follow-up defensive line nearby to cover the retreat of the native troops on the front line. Ah Zhe decisively gave up the idea of going to the front. For a front that is about to collapse completely, there is no way to reverse the tide of the battle with his own 100 people, even if his 100 or so people are all elite pilots. After all, all his subordinates use mass-produced mechs. If all of them were using the Freedom Gundam, A-Zhe might as well consider going to the front line to push back the BETA.
"Understood! The topographic map of the battlefield began to be uploaded. Eighty-one kilometres to the southwest of the troops, we found a logistical supply base for the native army. The General Staff proposed to build a defense facility on a vacant field ninety-seven kilometers southwest of the troops. In this way, our defense line can effectively use the supplies of the native army to snipe the BETA while covering the retreat of the front-line troops. Similarly, after the completion of the sniper mission, you can retreat through the base of the native army for a simple weapon supply. ”
"Good. Soldiers, you have all heard the command command, hurry up. Let those alien bugs experience the greetings from humans from another world. ”
"We'll greet the alien bugs very warmly, sir."
"We're going to let those bugs know that Earth is dangerous."
"That's right! Let's get them back to Mars as soon as possible. ”
"It is said that the beta in this world seems to be from Mars."
"Then it's all the more important to let these damn bugs go back home."
The young soldiers laughed at each other as they began to march towards the target area.
"The whole machine is moving forward in stealth mode. Try not to expose the beta until you have been in contact with it. You must know that the local residents may not welcome the arrival of our unknown army. Ah Zhe chuckled and reminded the young guys. lest anything happen.
"Understood!"
Although it is said to be a stealth operation, each mech is gliding forward with thrusters. Because of the light-level BETA, Ah Zhe and the others don't need to worry about reconnaissance from the air. Know that gliding forward is much faster than walking. After all, the BETA travels very fast, with the exception of the two types of BETA, the Ray and the Stronghold, which have a travel speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour. Therefore, it is very important to arrive at the designated place as soon as possible and establish a defensive position.
The ninety-seven kilometers journey took the team nearly forty minutes, and although the speed of action was not slow for Jean, the warning that the BETA was less than sixty kilometers away from the team still sounded in the communication channel. For BETA, sixty kilometers is no more than half an hour at most, so the establishment of defensive positions is already imminent.
"Hurry ~ Hurry ~ Hurry! We only had twenty minutes to set up our positions. We're going to face those bugs in less than thirty minutes. Ah Zhe yelled over the communicator. After all, it was the first time to use MS for actual combat, and Ah Zhe was a little nervous. After all, no amount of training on the simulator can make people grow more than a real battle.
In fact, even if Ah Zhe didn't yell, these young soldiers knew that they should seize the time to establish a position, and they did not lack combat experience against xenomorph life. In such a large-scale battle, there was not a single suitable position, and the consequences were better known to them than Azhe. After all, they have a lot more training time than Azhe. If it weren't for Ah Zhe's talent in quality weapons, I am afraid that he might not be able to surpass these young soldiers in terms of pilot level.
Engineering vehicles soon began to work on the construction of defensive positions. Because of the modular construction method, the position was set up very quickly. Due to the peculiarities of the BETA species, there are no bunkers and protective walls built in the defensive positions. Instead, a large number of mines and automatic batteries were arranged. These mines and turrets will attack according to different kinds of BETA. Because of BETA, the protection ability is different depending on the type. The Sergeant class can be effectively killed with only conventional individual weapons, the tank level needs a machine gun, and at the beginning of the assault class, it needs the armor-piercing shells of large-caliber guns to effectively kill.
The whole position was arranged very quickly, after all, only minefields and defensive batteries were arranged. Arrangement of minefieldsAs long as the minelayers are arranged in an area and the scope and type of mines are set, these machines can automatically lay mines within a certain range. The automatic turret only needs to be erected and fixed in the designated place. The computer will classify and attack the target according to a pre-set program. In order to maximize the lethality of firepower.
The last thing that needed to be laid out was the artillery position. The high-explosive shells of large-caliber guns have the greatest lethal effect on the Tank and Soldier Class, so that mines in the minefield can cause more damage to the Assault class. After all, the shell of the assault class only covers the front half of the body, and there is no protection for the back and abdomen. Therefore, mines from the ground can cause better damage to them.
In the process of arranging positions, from time to time, some tactical aircraft of the native army flew by. Because Ah Zhe turned on the hologram camouflage, the entire position that had not yet been built was covered by the hologram into a small hill. And the guards who were in a hurry to flee for their lives were not in the mood to wonder why the mountains in this area had suddenly risen more than 20 meters.
The construction of the entire position took a total of eighteen minutes. Almost all of the ammunition except for the 500 units used by the MS was put into this position. At this point, there are only a few autonomous robots left in the construction vehicle for the Soldier-Class BETA. And the Beta Corps was only twelve kilometers away from the defensive position. Originally, this distance had already entered the attack range of the artillery, but because the BETA that was in charge of the front-line assault was all assault level, it did not use the artillery that was not very effective in lethality.
The assault class quickly entered the range of the minefield, but the minefield formed by hundreds of thousands of mines allowed these alien bugs to experience the feeling of freefall in the air. It's just that the integrity of the body cannot be guaranteed when taking off.
Although the minefield has caused a lot of casualties to BETA, it will soon be leveled in the face of the endless sea of worms.
Looking at the worm sea that couldn't see the end at a glance, Azhe's expression became serious.
"The enemy is about to pass through a minefield. Each machine selects a target to attack according to the prompts of the tactical computer! Don't let a bug pass us by within the allotted time. ”
"Understood!"
There was not a hint of timidity in the young soldiers' tones, as if they were about to face a group of vulnerable miscellaneous soldiers.
War is on the verge of breaking out!
