129 Five mechs are battle-ready
"General, the people from the TV station are here!" In the Los Angeles Temporary Command Center, Scott frowned slightly when he heard his assistant's report.
Now there is still half an hour before the monster landing, and all the forces of the North American branch are thinking about the Los Angeles slope, and Scott has just given a deployment, when he hears the news of someone coming from the TV station.
At this time, Scott was very reluctant to let the TV station broadcast the battle live, because Newton was out of control, the previous trap had been scrapped, and the battle was likely to evolve in an unpredictable direction.
In the past, in the face of such unpredictable battles, the Rim of the Pacific Defense Organization chose not to broadcast live to avoid the defeat of the battle and causing panic among the people.
But this time, it was on the verge of being ready to fire.
[Echo Saber] was made into a hero mecha, the monster invaded Luoshanji, it must be in battle, the monster invaded, there was danger, there was opportunity, danger and opportunity coexisted.
This battle is important to the Echo Sabre, to the Eddie brothers, and equally important to the Pacific Rim Defense Organization.
After all, this is the first battle after the Eddie brothers were made heroes, only success is allowed, not failure, they can only use the corpse of the monster to respond to the doubts of some people.
But Scott always had a bad premonition, and the source of this premonition was the recent performance of the Eddie brothers, and as the big war drew closer, he became more and more uneasy about the two brothers.
Because the Eddie brothers have been so proud lately.
Failure is the mother of success, and pride is the mother of failure.
Scott worries that the Eddie Brotherhood will make a mess of the fight because of their arrogance and pride.
So he nodded to his assistant, "I know, you go and call Brother Eddie, the people from the TV station should do a simple pre-war interview later, I have something to explain to them." ”
"Okay! Checkmate. ”
After the assistant left, he quickly brought the Eddie brothers into the command center.
The two brothers talked and laughed as they walked, without any tension before the war.
This made Scott frown again, honor and disgrace are not shocked, which is the trait that a hero should have, how can the two of them still learn the style of media interviews?
"Ahem!" Scott interrupted the two brothers' conversation and laughter, stared at the two, and said solemnly: "Do you know what to say in the TV interview later?" ”
"Rest assured, General Scott, we have prepared the manuscript."
Seeing the disapproving eyes of the two, Scott was even more worried: "I believe you can have a good performance in front of the audience, but I want you to have a better performance in front of the monsters." Only the performance of fighting monsters is the foundation of your foothold, not the capital boasted by the media. ”
The two brothers tasted it for a moment and nodded in unison.
"Got it, General Scott."
Although the two agreed happily, Scott still saw disregard and self-righteousness in their eyes.
In this regard, Scott knows that he can't do anything if he wants to rely on just a few words, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is even more difficult to go from luxury to thrift, these two brothers have been corrupted by capital.
Scott waved his hand weakly.
"Alright, you guys go down!"
"Hmmm! Good bye! Checkmate! ”
After the two brothers left, Scott immediately called in his assistant.
"We must rearrange the battle plan, and the first formation must not be allowed to be on the [Huishen Saber]."
Los Angeles is a big city, and the coastal line is relatively long, and Scott's previous strategic deployment allowed three fourth-generation mechs to be in the front, while three third-generation mechs were in the back.
But now.....
"Change the [Returning Saber] to a backup mech, and only let [Saber Athena] and [Dangerous Wanderer] play in the front row."
The assistant asked suspiciously: "What should the people do if they question .....?"
"If [Dangerous Wanderer] and [Saber Athena] can kill the monster, then let the TV station explain that the monster is too weak to need a hero. Even if the five mechs can't kill the monster, they can still hit hard, and when the time comes, you can let the [Echo Saber] go into battle, kill them together, and clean up the battlefield. ”
This is a plan that Scott came up with on the fly, because it was the first battle in which the Eddie brothers became heroes, and there was no room for failure.
Rather than let the two brothers escape from defeat, it is better to pick up the leak at the end, so that although it will still be questioned, at least the scene is better.
"Okay, General, I'll go and inform!"
...........
At 2:46 p.m. on February 3, there are still 15 minutes left before the monster landing.
The six mechs of the North American Division arrived on the battlefield in turn.
"Mazi, this time we are the main battle mecha, we can't be as careless as last time!" Beckett controlled the [Dangerous Wanderer], stepping on the huge waves to rush to the front line, and at the same time, he actually had the heart to instruct his partner Asako.
I have to say that Beckett's life is really hard, the last time he fought, his brother died, he was fine, the last Jiangcheng battle, he fell from the shoulder of the 60-meter mecha, and still didn't fall to his death.
"Okay, Beckett!" In Mazi's resolute tone, there was a touch of warmth, and in the three months that Beckett had been recuperating from his injuries after falling into the water, they had changed from colleagues to lovers.
Traveling alongside the [Dangerous Wanderer] is also [Saber Athena].
[Saber Athena] bright orange design, with the curved body, in the sun, just like the arrival of the Greek goddess of the sea, Thalassa.
Behind the two mechs are three third-generation mechas, with [Berserker] and [Thor's Shield] on the sides, and [Melancholy Romeo] in the center.
The massive steel bodies of the five mechs streaked across the water, like a giant ship sailing by, sending a long white splash of water on the surface of the sea.
Everywhere the mecha passed, the water splashed and rolled, and the collision of steel and sea water set off a curtain of rain tens of meters high on the sea surface.
This kind of rain curtain greatly reduces the field of view of [Thor's Shield], because the cockpit of [Thor's Shield] is in the belly of the mecha.
It is for this reason that the cockpit of ordinary mechs is rarely set in the belly of the mecha, but there are always a few that like to design it that way.
In just five minutes, the five mechs arrived at the predetermined battle position, divided into two rows, and kept about 3 kilometers apart between the two mechs. From above, the defense line of the five mecha is like the outstretched hands of the earth, holding the entire Luoshan Rock in the palm of the hand.
As for the [Echo Sabre], it has been deliberately forgotten by Scott at the temporary base.
Of course, in the face of the TV's questions, Scott explained that the [Echo Sabre] is an ace mecha, and it first needs to protect the security of the command center.
Under the TV host's fanciful explanation, the audience firmly believed it.
Just like in ancient times, the strongest force is not necessarily the vanguard general, but also the guard general who protects the Chinese army's tent.
However, Scott's doing so made some people question him, thinking that it was a sign of fear of death.
Scott may know the result of such an explanation, but he doesn't care, as long as he wins this battle, as long as he lets [Echo Sabre] gain the record, whatever others say.
Anyway, some slanderous rumors can't affect his status as a general.
PS: Okay, these chapters are purposefully injecting water, after all, they were on the shelves on Friday, ready to explode more 15 chapters, and they must be kept high, and the tide broke out.
