Chapter 309: Gambling for Your Life
The situation is so precarious, and it would be foolish to hold on for nearly 40 hours after L2451 Central Base became an island-like existence.
Even if the broadcast is issued to gather the retreating troops in the middle line, this base is only a temporary fortress and not a city after all, and it cannot accommodate too many troops, not to mention the strategic materials stored cannot withstand the consumption for too long.
"I'm ready to abandon this base, and all personnel and equipment will be evacuated!" After ten minutes of silence, Qin Changfeng made the final decision, he didn't mean to discuss it with anyone, because in the face of the current situation, no one else had anything to do.
The officers present all nodded in agreement, and there was only one result of being surrounded and annihilated, evacuating to the complex terrain and hiding, and waiting for the opportunity for the empire to send reinforcements from other planets, but then the second sentence Qin Changfeng said made them all petrified on the spot.
"After that, I will take all the armored troops and drive straight into the central base of the Warlight Tribe!" Qin Changfeng finished speaking calmly, staring around at everyone's expressions.
"This ...... It's just looking for death! ”
It was none other than Ruoyu who said this, it was Ruo Yushi, a bastard who couldn't see a human figure when he fought, seeing Qin Changfeng staring at him silently, he hurriedly said: "However, since ancient times, many critical times often have to be put to death in order to survive, so I agree with the opinion of the Changfeng Holy Envoy, rush to the central base of the Zhanguang tribe, force their main force to come back, and give the imperial army a chance to breathe and recuperate." ”
This is not nonsense, but there is some truth, several officers all showed contemplation after hearing it, and after a while, Lu Yifu said in a deep voice: "Holy envoy, this is indeed a way to turn the situation around, but there are two problems. First, with the strength of our L2451 base, whether we have enough ability to threaten the main base of the Zhanguang Tribe; Second, due to the weakness of the Imperial Weapons in terms of reconnaissance, so far, we don't know the exact location of the main base of the Warlight Tribe! ”
Qin Changfeng stood up, walked to the huge electronic projection screen in front of the wall, and asked the Moon Fox to call up the topographic map of the planet, and pressed it heavily with his finger somewhere on the side occupied by the Star Spirit Clan, more than two hundred kilometers away from the battle line.
"First, I know the location of the main base of the Zhanguang Tribe, it's in this place!"
"Second, it is precisely because of the secrecy of the location that the Star Spirit Clan must not have imagined that we will know the specific location of their base, so they will think that there is no need to leave too many troops in the base, and with the power of a hundred heavy tanks on our side, a sudden attack is enough to deal a devastating blow to them."
"Thirdly, the location of the Star Spirit Clan base is very special, it is under a cliff, although I don't know why they chose to place the base under the cliff, but the existence of the cliff gives us an excellent position for condescending bombardment, as long as the siege tank is erected on it, the entire base is as defenseless as ** under the fire of the tank!"
After seeing the approximate location of the main base of the Star Spirit Clan, Qin Changfeng demarcated the coordinates of the Star Spirit Clan's base on the holographic map with the characteristics of that huge cliff.
At the same time, his words made the expressions of the senior officers of the base present soothe, if this is really the case, then it is indeed worth the gamble, after all, the ratio of pay to return is too amazing.
You must know that the importance of the main base to the Star Spirit Clan is not comparable to that of the Empire.
The Star Spirit Clan usually does not have too many main bases, for example, on this planet, there is only one, and the various manufacturing and summoning weapons, improving combat effectiveness, and teleporting warrior buildings in the base are almost all unique, once destroyed, the Star Spirit Army on this planet will be equivalent to becoming a group of lonely souls and wild ghosts, not to mention the great reduction in combat effectiveness, and will completely lose supplies and energy support for a long time.
Know that this is reality and not a game, and any warrior and weapon needs to be restocked, not infinite energy ammo.
"I have a question, even if we forced back a part of the main force of the Star Spirit Clan and saved the main force of the empire in the middle line, how could the troops attacking the base escape from the encirclement and suppression of the main force of the Star Spirit Clan at that time?" When a lieutenant colonel officer asked the question, everyone fell silent, for it was almost obvious that there was no way.
At this time, a one-armed major stood up and said categorically: "Qi Zhendong volunteered to lead the infantry wing under his command!" ”
Hearing this, the conference room fell silent again.
What he meant by this was not that he was willing to be the queen of the palace, but that he was willing to die in response to Qin Changfeng's plan.
He didn't do this because he was great, but because he was the highest ranking person in the Yueqi family here, and they who had decided to put all their hopes on Qin Changfeng must do everything they could to support them at this critical time, even if he and his infantry wing composed of the backbone children of the Yueqi family were all dead.
In fact, he doesn't take this lead, Qin Changfeng also has a way to make the imperial army in the base do this, after all, the military order is like a mountain, and whether he can escape or not is a matter of later.
But after his statement, the opposition is undoubtedly much smaller, after all, no one dares to openly say that they are greedy for life and afraid of death.
In the end, in just one hour, a fully mechanized force composed of thirty Vulture chariots, one hundred heavy tanks, fifty armored vehicles full of infantry, engineering vehicles, and crystal ore materials, and five machine giants set off from the base, and under the cover of the dark night, went straight to the coordinates of the base determined by Qin Changfeng and swooped over.
The remaining infantry in the base quickly evacuated with non-combatants after planting hundreds of smart mines in the base, preparing to retreat to the crystal mine in the rear to wait for news before the Star Spirit Empire army surrounded the place.
Among the troops who went north and disappeared into the night, Qin Changfeng sat in an armored transport vehicle, his brain was running rapidly, thinking about everything in this battle.
The first thing he sighed was that Yue Shan really had no bottom line, if nothing else...... The great rout on the Central and Eastern Fronts must have something to do with him!
Whatever the reason, it is too despicable to join the enemy and then plunge your own army into a catastrophe.
Even if most of these armies are not his cronies in this world, they should not be sold like this, it is not a matter of whether the heart is black or not, but there is no even the last bottom line and discipline.
At the same time, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the current situation is very unfavorable for Qin Changfeng to complete the advanced battle.
After voluntarily abandoning the base, he must help the Imperial army achieve at least a paper victory before the 48-hour deadline before he can pass the advanced battle.
That's why he had to put this bold plan in his mind into action.
Ruo Yushi whispered beside him and asked, "Boss, I'm afraid our attack on the main base of the Star Spirit Clan this time is not so simple, right?" ”
Qin Changfeng muttered: "We have two goals this time, the first is to pass the advanced battle, and the second is to kill Yue Shan, the bastard, as long as these two goals are achieved, everything else is not important......
…………
As for their troops, who not only did not flee to the southern veins in the dark of night, but instead galloped towards the land occupied by the Northern Star Spirit Clan, not only the commanders of the Warlight Tribe could not have imagined, but even the Imperial Army had no one else who could think of it.
Since most of the troops were chasing the Imperial army in the front, they galloped forward from the battle line and galloped for more than two hours on the vast land of Yima Pingchuan, and they didn't even encounter a single sentry of the Star Spirit Clan.
The speed of the armored forces in the dark would naturally be greatly affected, but even if it was reduced by half, more than six hours later, before the sun on this planet was about to rise again, Qin Changfeng still saw the huge base under the cliff from a distance.
In the faint morning light, a dazzling light was refracted in some places, and someone in the armored car immediately exclaimed: "It turned out to be a crystal ore exposed on the surface, no wonder they want to build the base under the cliff, these crystal mines are not difficult to mine, one vein is worth at least the output of three underground ore veins!" ”
Qin Chang was untouched by this, he just asked all the troops to go around to a gentle slope on the other side of the cliff, which was the quickest passage to the top of the cliff.
When the sun had completely risen over the horizon and the Imperial soldiers could see a few hundred meters away, they ordered an onslaught on the Stellar Towers and small battle fortresses on the gentle slope.
The Star Spirit Clan naturally knew how serious the consequences would be if the cliff above the base was occupied by the enemy, so they built a dense fortification on the gentle slope of the cliff.
In order to delay the enemy's attack on the cliff in case of an enemy attack, so that the troops in the main base can be reinforced in time.
However, at this time, when the battle was hot in front of them, how could they have thought that such a strange soldier would suddenly appear on the side of their hearts!
Six of the hundred taels of siege tanks broke down because of a malfunction when they were on the road, and were thrown down directly by Qin Changfeng without hesitation, and at this time, ninety-four tanks set up for siege mode fired a salvo, and all the raised things on the ground twenty meters behind the first row of batteries were flattened, and the fragments of the turret were splashed all over the sky, and after falling, they were directly smashed by the second round of artillery fire.
After two rounds of shelling, a third of the tanks put away the siege racks, moved forward a hundred meters under the cover of the infantry, and then set up again, and then the artillery fire extended along the boundaries of the previous bombing, and all the Star Spirit units within a distance of fifty meters were torn apart.
In this way, the siege tanks advanced in an orderly manner, and in less than ten minutes, with the huge advantage of range, they plowed the gentle slope that must be passed on the cliff as if it were plowing the ground, and all obstacles were almost completely removed.
At this time, the main base of the Star Spirit Clan has not sent reinforcements or troops to attack for a long time.
