Chapter 1126: The Flames of War (2)
The sun was rising over the horizon, and the streets of Windy City were littered with alien corpses, lying on the ground. And a blue-skinned alien master who skipped from the roof above was unmoved by the scene below.
It scurried between the rooftops quickly, and since they knew that An Xiaoyu was not in Windy City, these aliens began to be presumptuous, not paying attention to the Far North Army and the pickets at all. And the Far North Army was losing and retreating, and the pickets did not show up openly, which gave them confidence.
The alien master passed through a small half of the Windy City, and found that only the figure of the alien race was left in the entire Windy City, so he nodded with great satisfaction. Give them a certain amount of time, they will definitely be able to dig out the entire origin, and when the time comes, they will obtain the formula of the body strengthening potion, how can the army of the Human Empire fight them?
As for the houses that were wrapped in energy shields, it didn't care at all. The target of their operation this time is the Far North Army and the Origin, and they don't want to make any extraneous branches. If you attack ordinary people in human cities, you will definitely be met with a strong counterattack from the Empire.
Although it didn't have a good brain to figure out why the Empire could let them do whatever they wanted in Windy City, in its experience, it was nothing more than a desire to wait for reinforcements, or some kind of trap dug up, and it simply didn't think that the Empire had evacuated all the people in order to let them help find the place of origin.
And for a master like it, attacking ordinary human beings is indeed a bad thing. Since it couldn't make a move, and its subordinates didn't have the strength to break through the energy shield, they just let it go. Their immediate priority is to find the base of origin and obtain the recipe for the enhancement potion.
The fact that these days have been able to move so smoothly is based on information sources, and the alien master has passed through countless rooftops and finally landed in an alley. The alley is no different from the other alleys, with four garbage cans filled with garbage.
The alien master waved his hand and knocked over the four trash cans, and then saw the paper ball rolling out of the garbage heap at a glance, and opened the paper ball in his hand in the air, and sure enough, he saw the words of his own clan written on it. It said that the Empire was ready to surround the entire Windy City, and the time was just two days away.
The alien master groaned for a moment, raised his hand to shatter the note, looked around, and disappeared into the alley.
The morning sun was half an hour late to illuminate the base of the dive mower, and the watermelon army, which had been nervous all night, was also temporarily relieved. In the daytime, you can see enemies in the distance, and the alien race will never be stupid enough to directly attack the mecha camp.
Cheng Xiaofeng rubbed his head that was a little painful, and ordered: "Prepare all the old antiques in the warehouse, and install them in every corner of the woods for me, with a warning range of ten kilometers, go quickly!" ”
It didn't take long for several mechs to be dispatched, followed by some soldiers with guns underneath. These soldiers are also mecha troops, but now they can't help them, and the mission needs to be carried out, and no one can't do it.
The mechs were not idle, and the woods near the base had been cut down one after another, just to create an open space and increase the time for the aliens to appear and approach the mech formation, so that they had enough time to retreat and counterattack. However, the forest is too extensive, and even mecha logging only scrapes off a small layer.
Infrared and ultrasonic sensors are placed in the woods, and thanks to the good quality of the things produced by the Imperial Military Industry, these old sensors are outdated for thousands of years, even if they are in regular reserves, they have been in the warehouse for decades, and it is a great blessing that they can still work well with batteries.
Cheng Xiaofeng also relaxed his nerves a little, he knew that the alien race would definitely come again, either tonight or tomorrow night, of course, there was a high probability that it would be today. I have endured today with these old things, what will I do tomorrow? The General Staff of the Western Regions still did not give a clear answer as to when the troops would be transferred.
Now the only team that can support them is the Watermelon Army's own team, and all of them are mecha troops, and the number is too large, which can only play a deterrent role in such a situation, and what they need is a complete combat system, not a simple number of supplements.
If there is no regular army reinforcement the night after tomorrow, they will have to let the rearmament division play, which is the biggest shame for the mecha army. Cheng Xiaofeng sat on the chair, refreshing the news records of the Western General Staff over and over again, anxious.
Of course, that doesn't mean they're going to sit still. Cheng Xiaofeng has already sent people to nearby towns to evacuate residents. The war has not yet begun, and the transfer of residents, of course, will not be so easy. But at the very least, it is guaranteed that if the hill is occupied, the heavy weapons of the Empire will not be like ordinary citizens.
There are also some mobile units of motorists and military bicycles in the woods, whose mission is to monitor the movements of the entire forest. It is not to be able to have an effective strike effect on the enemy, but to be able to detect the approaching team of the alien race as soon as possible, so that they can have time to react.
But how much of a role does this really make? Cheng Xiaofeng himself didn't know.
Since the alien evacuation last night, the entire no-man's land has become silent, as if it were a barren land where no one or any life exists. Nothing is hidden in the woods, hidden in the sun and dark green, only the abrupt slopes and rocks show their own distinctiveness without reservation.
It was as if nothing had happened, and from morning onwards the whole grove was very quiet. But Cheng Xiaofeng didn't relax for a moment, he knew that what the aliens were waiting for was the moment when they couldn't stand it. He knew that the aliens would definitely not be having a good time, and that they would definitely not have many troops to use.
Among the alien races, there are the main battle faction and the main peace faction, and the main war faction is divided into different camps due to various interests, with different higher races as leaders. When An Xiaoyu left the alien territory before, he had already killed many masters of the high-level races of these main battle factions.
Now a race that has the courage to provoke the Empire before the beginning of a full-scale war, and has such superb means, you know that it will not be an ordinary race. And in such a chaotic situation, considering the security of the rear and the ideas of the upper echelons, the forces that a single race can use will definitely not be too many.
There were already more than 20,000 on the Windy City side, and there were tens of thousands of them attacking the submarine last night, which was probably all the strength they could use in this harassment battle. Thinking like this, Cheng Xiaofeng became more and more sure that his conjecture was correct.
Everyone has so many troops, so it depends on who can't consume it first.
The day passed peacefully, and the night fell again on the dive base, with no stars in the dark sky, and the moon was covered behind the dark clouds. Such a battlefield can be said to be quite advantageous for alien races with hidden means.
Cheng Xiaofeng looked at the dark night, and immediately issued an order: "The mobile troops should withdraw immediately, give up artificial alert, and all mecha formations should be ready for battle, be vigilant against the alien races in the woods as time as they go, and distance themselves from the edge of the woods!" Don't relax at all! ”
"Yes!"
The entire dive base was on high alert, and all the soldiers were in good spirits, and last night's battle made their hearts burn with a raging fire. All the guns were pointed at the woods, and they looked at the pitch-black woodland as if they were looking at a terrible abyss.
At this moment, the sensors placed in the woodland signaled the appearance of the enemy, and the command immediately issued an artillery command. All the mechs aimed their weapons at the woods in the distance, but at this moment, the ground beneath the mechs suddenly squirmed, and bulges suddenly appeared next to the mechanical legs.
"Be careful! There are enemies in the land! The mecha formation reported.
Cheng Xiaofeng immediately ordered: "Retreat!" Fall back! Get out of that area and get back to the rocks and base areas! The heavy artillery position is aimed at the woods and hit me! ”
Thus, the heavy weapons on the hill took over the task of striking the enemy, and countless artillery fire flew from the hillside to the distant forest. As the artillery fire fell, a large number of screams and roars were heard, and the aliens were caught off guard, and they did not expect their methods to be cracked so quickly.
"It's an old-fashioned sensor!" An alien pulled out a small black box from the trunk of a tree.
The leading alien master reached out and grabbed it, and threw the infrared sensor on the ground and smashed it to pieces. The artillery fire around him was still raging, and countless soldiers were killed under the bombardment. It looked at the artillery position in the distance with some reluctance, and looked at the fire that streaked across the sky, almost crushing a mouthful of fangs.
"Retreat!"
The aliens around him suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly shouted to the other aliens: "Retreat!" Fall back! ”
With the retreat of the alien race, the earth-based alien race that had infiltrated the foot of the mecha before also burrowed back into the ground and disappeared without a trace. Cheng Xiaofeng didn't feel at ease like this, but ordered: "The shaped energy cannon gives me the maximum power to blast out a hundred-meter-deep trench around the base!" ”
The adjutant was stunned for a moment, and immediately passed the order to the heavy artillery camp on the hill. The two shaped cannons in the heavy artillery camp were aimed at both ends of the base, and the barrels of the cannons suddenly lit up with a blue-white light, and huge energy fluctuations spread out and bombarded out.
The huge pillar of blue-white light fell to the ground, and the trees were bombarded and shattered by the energy beam, and before they even burned, they turned into ashes and shattered into the ground. The rock and soil were pierced alike, burning into magma and splattering in all directions, and as the muzzle of the cannon turned, a long trench formed.
The trench exudes a blazing smell, and melted rock and sand flow down the walls of the trench, gradually solidifying into a hard rock crust. The trench can be 20 meters wide and more than 100 meters deep, and it will soon be connected into one, Cheng Xiaofeng watched the formation of this trench, which can be regarded as a little reassuring.
At the very least, this trench is effective against the soil aliens, and it can also contain the enemies who emerge from the woods a little. At that time, as long as the locking system on the mecha locks the opponent, it will be able to pull back a certain gap. But he also knew that these were just temporary tactics and would not last long.
Reinforcements, when will they come?
An Xiaoyu looked at the Zhao orphans in the sleeping cabin, and sighed with some emotion. She is controlled by people these days, and she acts carefully everywhere, just for the sake of this person. The Zhao orphan lying in the sleeping pod looked to be in his twenties, obviously much older than An Xiaoyu, not at all like an imperial person, and the skin on his body was rough and dull, obviously the traces left by many years of living in a foreign tribe.
is for such a person, An Xiaoyu has been holding back for almost half a month. And it is clear that whether it is in terms of appearance or insight into people's hearts, An Xiaoyu is more powerful than Guan Jue. But she searched for someone who she hadn't found for so long, and Guan Jue just bewitched someone and brought her to the base and let her find the sleeping pod.
In the final analysis, he was too careful, Guan Jue made a time difference, he came here from the Eastern Wilderness to take the fastest fighter plane in the empire. That's why he was able to find the origin of the horse's feet before Gong Shanzhi and the others entered the Windy City on the bright side, and disguised himself as Lao Du.
Sighing, An Xiaoyu didn't plan to wake up the Zhao orphan right now, but turned to look at the head of the origin base who was lying on the ground behind him and had his limbs gone. An Xiaoyu smiled and said, "What should I call you?" Your identity should have a code name in the origin, right? ”
The manager leaned against the wall, and the break in his hands and feet made him grin in pain, but he still found a comfortable position and said to An Xiaoyu: "Feng Bo." ”
"Oh?" An Xiaoyu smiled: "Uncle Feng? That's a good match for this Windy City base. You should know who I am, and while I can't tell you how I got in, I should be able to guess it. So, let's not talk nonsense, are you going to be honest? Or are you going to be killed by me and search for souls directly? ”
Feng Bo laughed miserably and said, "If I confess honestly, can you spare my life?" ”
An Xiaoyu shook her head: "Of course not!" ”
Feng Bo's eyes dimmed instantly, he also knew that for An Xiaoyu and the empire, a person like him, in charge of an entire base, I don't know how many people died because of his orders, and he held the secret of the origin, how could he let him live well?
If it was before the memory search device was developed, he might still be able to rely on the contents of his head to die of old age, but unfortunately now...... Once all the memories are developed, he must face the death penalty. If that's the case, then what's the difference?
Unexpectedly, An Xiaoyu said again: "If you are honest, I can guarantee that the origin will not create your clone again." I guess that's the best comfort for you, right? ”
Feng Bo's eyes lit up suddenly, of course he didn't want to become a clone. Once you become a clone, your own memories, your own flesh, will be in the hands of the origin. It can be said that it may be right not to feel pain after becoming a clone, but the thought that you are about to become a clone will definitely resist the body.
"How can you do that?" Feng Bo didn't believe it at all: "My genes and memory materials have been backed up by the organization, and you can't stop them from trying to create test subjects." ”
An Xiaoyu shook her head: "You should know that a person's spirituality can only produce one, but the cloning technology has exploited the loophole and overcome this problem." The key is that the Heavenly Dao is still asleep, and it will not pursue the clones too much, so the origin can create clones unscrupulously......"
Speaking of this, An Xiaoyu suddenly thought, did the alien spy organization create corpse fraudsters, did they want to use clones to awaken the way of heaven? And then use the power of the Heavenly Dao to destroy the empire? Thinking of this, An Xiaoyu felt a little creepy.
Feng Bo looked at An Xiaoyu and was stunned for a moment, still a little puzzled.
However, An Xiaoyu quickly returned to normal and put this matter in the back of her mind: "If you are honest with me, I can completely destroy your spirituality and wipe out your spirituality at the Heavenly Dao level, and from then on all your clones will become soulless shells." ”
Feng Bo fell into thought, of course he believed that An Xiaoyu would have such an ability, and now he was worthless, whether it was for the origin or for An Xiaoyu. An Xiaoyu has absolutely no possibility of deceiving him, what else is there to deceive?
But he was still puzzled: "Why? After that, you can find what you want from the Empire's memory search history, why do you want to ...... By the way, you don't want the Zhao orphans to be known to the empire, I understand! You and Chi Mo, you two...... It wasn't himself who was so slow to protect at all! ”
An Xiaoyu was a little helpless: "It's a little too late for you to understand." ”
Feng Bo smiled bitterly: "Yes, I understood too late, but I still don't understand, why did we study your genes but didn't find a way to reproduce the Chimo experiment?" ”
An Xiaoyu thought about it, of course she wouldn't know that the experimental materials used for the origin were the experimental materials after she was promoted to human spirit, so she shook her head and said, "Maybe it's your bad luck?" ”
Feng Bo opened his mouth and hung his head in frustration: "Okay......"
"When we got the news of the Zhao family's orphans, it was completely accidental, because the Mo family was destroyed by you, so we took in some of the people who escaped from the Mo family and obtained their memories. Of course, the memory search technology of the origin is not perfect, and these people have been brain-searched and have long since died. ”
"From their memories, we got a legend about the orphans of the Zhao family. Originally, I was just looking for it, but I didn't expect to really let us find it. So we designed the original scene, using the power of one grandmaster to block the entire battlefield. ”
"By the way, the grandmaster is still in the base, not just one, there are three in total, and there is also a true realm, I think you should be able to solve these, right?" Feng Bo really didn't hide anything: "Actually, the tree cave elves brought back from the town are no longer the orphans of the Zhao family. ”
"That's our disguised impostor, and it's actually for this play. We know that the Empire will definitely pay attention to the Zhao orphans, especially you. So such a scene was arranged, and the whereabouts of the Zhao orphans were made strange. ”
"But I didn't expect that you would directly pick the bases of several organizations for him."
