Volume 4: The Seed of Holiness (58)
Su Xiaofei stepped down from the seat of the open-air fort, shook off the snowflakes deposited on the exoskeleton armor, and began to stretch his hands and feet.
In order to adapt to the harsh environment of all-terrain combat, this auxiliary power armor on his body is also equipped with a simple ecological circulation system, although it is isolated from the cold outside and will not lose temperature in the ice and snow, but it is not so comfortable to stay in the cabin with a simplified impact lining for a long time.
"What's that?"
Suddenly, Su Xiaofei's movements stopped, and his attention focused on the little noise that appeared in the snow-white world of his eyes.
The small black dots captured in the field of vision were linked to the data processing center for analysis, and after several simulations were enlarged, several hideous crawling xenomorphs jumped into view!
"Oh my God!"
Seeing the small black dot slowly turn into a black line, Su Xiaofei came to his senses and grabbed the communication device and shouted hysterically:
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! A large number of insect swarms were found five kilometers outside the base! ”
Almost at the same time, other batteries also communicated similar information to the base, which meant that their base was surrounded by xenomorphs!
……
"Quick, quick, all of you put on power armor and get your weapons! All of them! ”
There were people in charge of each barracks who were screaming like this, urging their subordinates to act quickly.
The entire base was mobilized, including non-combatants such as cooks, ground crews, and clerks, all of whom were put on their own equipment and on standby, while the few remaining guards of the base had already left for defensive positions.
"Why didn't the radar detect them in advance?"
Wu Changming roared angrily and almost tore over the roof of the headquarters
Five kilometers! It's only a few minutes for the Xenos who are speeding fast, and it's too late to even apply for aerospace support from the Alliance headquarters!
"Report to Commander-in-Chief Wu, the radar soldiers did not neglect their duties, it should be the Zerg who interfered with us."
After receiving the report of the enemy attack, several staff officers immediately investigated the situation at the radar station and ruled out that the failure to detect the incoming insect swarm in time was human negligence.
It seems to be a long-planned raid! Taking advantage of the fact that almost all of the main forces of the base were engaged in the battle, they were ready to destroy this command center and logistics base in one fell swoop, so as to achieve the goal of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle.
If they really want to succeed, let alone win, it will be questionable whether all the main forces of the human race, who are powerless to succeed, can withdraw from the alliance.
Wu Changming threw his hat down
"Let's go, except for a few people left to coordinate the battlefield, all the rest will go to the battlefield with me, this base must not be lost!"
By the time Wu Changming arrived at the front line, the battle had already entered a white heat. The dense xenomorphs were wrapped in a group to launch wave after wave of attacks on the defensive position, and they were washed away layer by layer by the dense rain-like barrage, and the *** that pierced the sky kept flying out of the base, covering almost the entire sky, and the deafening explosion was endless.
"How's it going?"
Wu Changming grabbed a front-line commander and asked
"The situation is not optimistic, the Zerg has used a large number of elite troops in this attack, and our firepower cannot stop them from approaching at all, relying on the dense *** and heavy artillery from the rear to maintain the battle line."
After the report was completed, the commander hurriedly joined the battle again, and at this time, no ounce of combat power should be wasted!
Is it all about heavy firepower? Because the underworld is not convenient for the use of heavy weapons, this time there is not much base for something like ***.
"Send a request for air-space fire support like the headquarters of the Union Army!"
Although far water can't quench the thirst of the near, even if it is a straw, it must be held on to now!
"Yes, sir!"
"Headquarters, headquarters, we are the Antarctic front-line base station, and we ask the nearby fleet to give us air and space fire support!"
The remaining personnel of the Antarctic base command center sent a request for support to the alliance military headquarters, and then all that remained was prayer, no matter what, there must be a few armed satellites stranded near the Antarctic orbit, right?
"Drop~"
Wu Changming's communication was automatically connected, and a sonorous male voice was transmitted from the distant starry sky
"Hello Vice Admiral Wu Changming, I am the commander of the Second Fleet of the Deep Space Guardians, I just returned to the earth's orbit from the edge of the solar system a few days ago to replenish supplies, and now I am ordered to lead the Second Fleet to provide air and space fire support to you, please provide a link to the battlefield data."
The second fleet of deep space guardians? How did they end up here?
After discovering those amazing ruins, mankind realized that this world itself is not the only intelligent civilization, in order to prevent those extraterrestrial civilizations from prying eyes, the entire alliance has gathered the strength of the entire alliance to create two deep space fleets to patrol and explore outside the solar system, the second fleet is the super-conventional armed force responsible for daily patrols.
What a surprise! As a deep space fleet that has consumed a lot of alliance resources, its combat power is not comparable to that of ground forces, so someone has entrusted the last hope of mankind to them, but the timing of this fleet's replenishment is too delicate, right?
Needless to say, this must be the handwriting of Chang Tianle. If you want to apply for the Second Fleet to provide fire support for them, the group of old men of the Alliance Committee can use all kinds of problems for a year without breathing, but the fleet that comes back to replenish just happens to encounter the Alliance troops being besieged, then they will definitely fry the pot if they dare to die and not save the Alliance soldiers!
"Warning! Warn! The following areas have been locked by air-to-air fire, please make sure all personnel have been evacuated! There are 900 seconds left until the intensive bombardment! ”
After the data was linked, areas of the tactical map of all Antarctic ground combatants were locked and marked with skull marks, with flashing red lights indicating that it was going to be an extremely dangerous place.
"It's our space fleet!"
The crowd erupted in a terrifying cheer
With such a large area locked down at the same time, people with a modicum of common sense understood what that meant, and morale soared.
The arrival of the fleet gave them ample fire cover, and if nothing else, most of the people present today would have returned alive, and the hopeful ground forces burst out with unparalleled combat effectiveness (mainly because the artillery support only lasted for fifteen minutes, and they were so strong that they threw their ammunition out), and the swarm of the intrusive was blocked a few hundred meters away.
Fifteen minutes passed in the heat of battle, and dozens of large and small space warships that had come to the orbit of the South Pole opened their magazines one after another and dropped metal cylinders into the atmosphere.
The long barrels, which burn violently due to air resistance, caused a dense meteor shower to fall over Antarctica.
"Protect your eyes!"
Wu Changming shouted loudly in the channel, taking the lead in reducing the light sensitivity of the mecha
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom, boom!"
……
The meteor slammed into the swarm with a long tail flame, bursting out dazzling flowers of death, illuminating the entire dim South Pole as if it were day.
When the light cleared, all that was left on the battlefield was a sparse xenomorph and scattered severed limbs.
It wasn't just the xenomorphs, but the powerful attack made both sides forget to attack again, staring blankly at the uneven ground in front of them that had been ravaged by the terrifying energy.
"Toot ~~~"
A dull roar like a hell's horn echoed across the battlefield
A furious shockwave ensued, blowing away all the soldiers and combat equipment in a line, and a team of unusual aliens rushed straight from afar, shrouded in a white shield.
"Knock them out! They're going to go within 500 meters! ”
All the turrets immediately turned around, pouring tons of ammunition at the xenomorph team, and the heavily armed soldiers and mechs who came to their senses also aimed at the few war insects running in front of them and kept pulling the triggers, and all kinds of metal firing pins violently hit the shield under the acceleration of the electromagnetic track in the gun, and the shield was also melted by these metals while eroding and melting these metals, and the range of the shield was rapidly shrinking.
A xenomorph floating in mid-air stopped, the woman's head-like body cracking in the middle, and a small amount of energy fluctuations spilled out of it and were channeled into the wrinkled peripheral radials, which were projected after countless amplifications.
"Toot ~~~"
The horn sounded again, and the surface of several defensive forts seemed to have received a huge blow, and a large piece of the front caved down, and then was pulled out of the tumbling table by the foundation and flew into the distance, and then smashed into the ground with a "clang". Looking at the seriously deformed outer frame, the operators inside must not be spared.
"High-level xenomorphs!"
Wu Changming's heart was cold
For this kind of high-level xenomorph at least the pinnacle of the fourth order, ordinary weapons are completely useless, and this is no longer an opponent that can be defeated by numbers.
"All personnel retreat back to base in turn!"
In order to avoid unnecessary losses, Wu Changming reluctantly issued an order to retreat.
The base fired another wave of heavy artillery bombardment to shield them, and taking advantage of the billowing smoke of gunpowder, the fighters quickly withdrew from their defensive positions, leaving only fully automatic defensive equipment and heavy equipment in one place.
The severely weakened firepower did not stop the xenomorphs, and the distance between the two sides grew closer, and as the murderous xenos were about to break through the tail of the retreating troops, a fire meteor roared in, easily smashing through the white shield and crashing into the swarm.
With a "boom", the center of the swarm was emptied, and countless flames scattered from the misty dust and white mist, and all the low-level xenomorphs who were stained with a little bit of it burst into flames, and they were burned to charcoal in a short time; And the high-level xenomorphs have released their force fields, condensing shields on the surface of their bodies to resist this extraordinary attack.
"Fire Demon Descends from the Sky! Yummy! ”
"It's Old Man Xie!"
"We are saved!"
……
The retreating troops erupted in cheers, and finally gathered into a mountain of roars
"God of War!"
"God of War!"
"God of War!"
……
If the arrival of the Deep Space Fleet means a chance to survive in everyone's minds, then Xie Dongqing, who liberated the legendary form, represents the advent of victory!
