Volume 1 Red Flame Chapter 18 Sneak Attack
I urgently called the mechs of my own team to go up to the top first, and then called other squads to send mechs to support, but except for Hans and other familiar mechs who sent some mechs over, the other squads basically did not respond. The teams were basically in a situation where they were fighting on their own, and I couldn't help but be secretly annoyed.
I secretly cursed this system in my heart, but I immediately sent a message to the following mecha: "Three machines are linked, and one machine is swept away." ”
After sending the signal, I was still nervous and observed the battle situation of my mecha on the global system. One mecha is in a team of four according to the principle of proximity, and several sets of red lights flashed on the system, which is a signal of the success of the team, and I am relieved. I observed the battlefield situation while paying attention to the information on the system, and a group of three rays of light accurately hit one mech after another, and immediately after the hit, another ray of light hit the previous mecha, and the rebel mechs were finally destroyed one by one after the shield energy was exhausted.
The enemy rushed very quickly, and did not slow down due to a slight loss, but as long as the shield was hit and did not explode, it would retreat and swap with the mecha behind it as soon as it was hit.
Soon, the enemy was only about 800 meters away from our first line of defense, and the mechs of the first line of defense had already lost more than a dozen planes, and the system showed that our troops did not support here, and they were basically unable to stop.
"All the men withdrew to the second line of defense, and those of the third line of defense concentrated on the second line of defense." I reluctantly issued an order to retreat, and at present, the first line of defense is basically left with the mechs of my team and Hans team, and if I don't retreat, I will be damaged here.
I withdrew to the middle of the second line of defense, and found Xiao Zhang's respective positions, and they were scattered in their positions to command a section of the line, and the squads also recovered from the initial panic and concentrated their main forces on the second line of defense. Not long after the withdrawal to the second line of defense, the enemy forces were again in front of them.
"Hit!" I picked up the laser gun and fired a shot that accurately hit a mech, but it still flashed a yellow light. The enemy's formation was relatively dense, and the fire was concentrated on attacking a small section of the defensive line, and the attacked section of the defensive line suffered heavy losses.
"Captain, I can't stand it here." Xiao Chen was in the middle of being attacked, and it didn't take long for him to be summoned.
"I know, I'll come to you later, and I'll ask for help and support immediately, but I must hold on for a while, and I can't retreat easily, otherwise it's useless for reinforcements to come, and the battle line can't be saved."
The enemy has turned all his forces to our position and is concentrating on attacking the front about one kilometer to the left end of the second line of defense, that is, the area bordering the central defense zone.
"Steady, steady." I vigorously summoned everyone, and the squads also transferred their forces to support the enemy's onslaught position, and I rushed from the communication trench to a small stronghold where Xiao Chen was in front, and there were eight mechs in this stronghold, and they were shooting at the enemy in groups of four.
Xiao Chen was attached to the high-powered telescope to observe the enemy's situation, looked at me, gave up the camera position and said: "Captain, you see, the enemy army is very tightly organized, one team member commands ten mechas, and fires alternately, our battle line is a little open, and the troops are insufficient, and the firepower is completely suppressed. ”
I stood in front of the 50x telescope, the appearance of the enemy human team members can be seen very clearly, the enemy army adopts the tactics of suppressing one piece and attacking one place, often more than a dozen mecha against three or four mechas, first most of the mecha can not raise their heads, and then when they see one of our mechas, they dispatch three or four mecha to quickly rush over to besiege the mecha that is being targeted. In just a few moments as I observed, one of our mechs was destroyed. In the distance, a man who looked like an enemy commander looked at us with a telescope in his hand, and he seemed to have spotted us.
"It's not good, get out of here."
I pulled Xiao Chen and left, and at the same time gave the order to the mecha here to move to other combat positions. Not long after running out of the observation post, there were enemy laser guns shooting at the observation station, and the dense beams weaved a light net of energy in the air, completely enveloping the entire battle position we had just run out, and a dozen or so mecha rushed over quickly, so dangerous! If you don't withdraw just now, you might be hanging there.
Xiao Chen and I retreated to the middle line of the second line of defense, only to see Hans running towards me.
"You just came from the front, how's it going?" Hans asked aloud.
"The rebels have a lot of troops and too much firepower. Hard resistance will definitely not be able to resist, veteran, do you have any way? ”
"These rebels don't know what medicine they have taken wrong, it seems that the whole army has been dispatched." Xiao Chen muttered.
"It's better to come out, save yourself from drilling around in the cave, and this time I them all."
Hans looked deep and thought for a while: "We can't be beaten passively like this when the rebels' local forces are superior, and the brigade doesn't transfer mechs from other directions, and it's useless to send some of them, so if there is a unit outside, like the last time we were in the cave, you put a mecha on the outside to attack from both sides." ”
When Hans said that, I had an idea. I patted Hans on the shoulder, "You're right, but wait." Wait until the enemy has completely crossed our first line of defense, and then we will go through the underground tunnel, and that exit will be in front of the first line. ”
"Will the enemy discover our secret passage?" Xiao Chen asked slightly worriedly.
"Send a mecha to explore the way first, and retreat if you find something wrong." I said, "There is also a concentration of troops, except for a few mechs to observe, other members and mechs of our team are concentrated in the middle of the defense line, and the second machine and the team members are concentrated and divided into several groups, each group has at least two team members and four second mechas, if there is another enemy army rushing over to besiege our lone mecha, use grenades and AT to kill him from a long distance." Communicate with the other squads, explain the situation, and let them do the same as us, each squad can no longer fight on its own, and must defeat the enemy's momentum first. ”
"Good!" Everyone agreed. Then the enemy did the same trick again, and seven or eight mechs were blown up by the dense fire of grenades, ATs, and lasers. The other squads saw the tense situation here and increased their troops here, and the rebels finally slowed down the pace of their attack.
The rebel offensive slowed down a little, and my swollen nerves finally calmed down. Hans and I sat down with a few captains and exchanged ideas, and everyone agreed with our tactics just now, but they also thought that it was okay for a short time, and they couldn't afford to spend energy and grenades for a long time.
Looking at these anxious squad leaders, I talked about the secret passage again: "In this way, when the enemy attacks, some of the mechs will take a moment first, and then we will send some mechs to go through the secret passage below and attack from both sides." ”
"Who to send, your team?" A member of the team asked.
"Let my mech go, I'd love to beat them up." Efson said with hatred, this time the mechs that attacked it suffered heavy losses and several more destroyed.
I looked at everyone and said, "Let's go with my mech!" The passage is not big, and if there are too many mechas, they can't quickly launch the formation at once, and this attack must be fast, and the command must be unified. Your mechs may still be mine, but you can give us some energy and grenades, and you will also have a strong attack when we attack. ”
After the discussion, the captains went back to their teams. I called Xiao Zhang over and gathered all the mechs. Hans looked at me and said, "I'll go with you!" ”
I looked at the veteran and shook my head: "I'm relieved that you're in the rear." ”
Hans walked over, slapped me on the shoulder and said, "Come back alive." ”
I nodded. Soon, the enemy's attack began again, and under the leadership of several heavy aircraft, the enemy's mechs strengthened the attack density, pressing over in pieces, and the battle line suddenly burst into flames.
"Let's go", I gave the order and led the whole team down the dark road. The exit of the dark passage is in the middle of a mountain peak, and the middle of the mountain peak is dug into a hole of more than ten square meters, and the original mountain rock is deliberately left when the hole is dug, but it has been divided into many pieces vertically. After carefully removing the rocks from the cave entrance, checking the ground nearby for enemy footprints, and making sure it was safe, the whole team went out of the ground.
This peak was just in the left rear of the enemy army, and the distance was about five hundred meters. Hundreds of enemy mechs are attacking our position, and dozens of large heavy planes are slowly moving forward, they all have huge cabins, and they don't know what instruments are installed in them that require such a size. The enemy forces are all facing away from us, not noticing our arrival, and now is a good opportunity for a sneak attack.
"Captain, when will you fight?" Xiao Zhang felt a little eager to try.
I pointed to the slightly sloping surface line in front of me and said, "Don't worry, see that slope is not there, wait until most of them have crossed this slope and can't see it." ”
"Why?" Xiao Zhang was a little puzzled, and deliberately made an exaggerated expression. Looking at Xiao Zhang's appearance, Xiao Chen and I both laughed.
"Xiao Chen, explain it." I laughed.
Xiao Chen glanced at Xiao Zhang and said: "Do you really not know or not, the enemy crosses that line, we can't see the other party, and the enemy can't see us, and if we can't see the enemy, it means that the number of enemy troops facing us will be much less, and we will not be attacked by the enemy, and the chance of winning the sneak attack is also greater." ”
Xiao Zhang smiled and said, "Captain, I know this truth, I just want to ease the tension before the battle." ”
"You guy." Xiao Chen and I both laughed and scolded.
After a while, most of the enemy troops had crossed the slope, and there were only nearly seventy or eighty mechs left, and these dozens of mechs did not move forward and stayed behind. From the global system, it can be seen that they have begun to distance themselves from the mechs that have crossed the slope. What's the matter, aren't these troops going to be invested, I muttered in my heart.
Several of the rebel commanders were also in the middle of the group, watching from a distance what they were discussing, and I suddenly had a feeling that since these mechs were not going to fight, maybe they didn't open their shields. I let the mechs scatter and find a suitable position, and when these rebels are far enough away from the team in front of them, it's time for us to attack.
