General Kunliangti tiredly put down the deduction pen and leaned back in his chair, his face full of unwillingness.

Next to the holographic projection of Skynet, the chief of staff, Lieutenant General Gordon, covered his mouth with a handkerchief, coughed twice, and soaked the white handkerchief with blood.

His lieutenant stepped forward to help him sit down, and beckoned to the nurses who were on standby outside. Nurses, already covered in white and dust, poured in to inject Lieutenant General Gordon and applaud glucose.

The general hadn't slept for several nights, and he hadn't eaten much, knowing that he already had a stomach problem, and the sudden outbreak of war had brought the general down at once.

"It's okay, Gordon." Kun Liangti covered his eyes with his hands and pretended to rest, but in fact he was very dizzy. He didn't make a fuss about this, because he was often like this these days, and he didn't agree to let him go to the field hospital in the rear to recuperate, and he didn't see that even his adjutant didn't change his face.

"You've asked this all these times, and if I'm really fine, I'll be really fine." Gordon is almost fifty years old, he is a lieutenant general in the Marine Corps who was promoted five years ago, and he was personally promoted by General Steel, because he likes his ability.

"Has the 16th Division been withdrawn?" Kun Liangti's eyes didn't want to open.

"Taken down." Gordon sighed, "85% of the battle damage, it's like not withdrawing." Only the division headquarters, the direct guard battalion and a mecha battalion returned, and the rest remained there. ”

"Damn...... Who has taken over the A22 position west of the Phoenix Plain now? ”

Gordon picked up the laser pointer and drew a few lines on the Skynet screen, "There is no reserve, but it was resisted by an armored regiment ten minutes ago, it was the thirty-seventh division." ”

"Without Skynet and the front command order, Duan Chop that guy dares to transfer his main force out? Looks like I'm going to have to remove him. Although Kun Liangti said this, he was very happy.

If the 37th Division had not sent the main armored regiment to take over the positions of the 16th Division in time, then the enemy's army would have completely captured the 32 large and small positions west of the Phoenix Plain along this tiny gap.

By that time, the resistance will be a complete failure.

"How long can we last?" Kunryati looked at the Chief of Staff.

Gordon tapped the armrest a few times, "New Year." With the only supplies we have now, if we can't hold out for support, January 1 on New Year's Eve will be the day when Truman will fall completely. ”

"Has our late stage deteriorated to this point?"

"Originally, there wasn't, but three days ago a demon team somehow got into our rear, they spun around like headless flies, and as a result, they rushed into our logistics warehouse, and only a third of them were rescued after the battle."

"Why hasn't anyone told me anything like this?"

"Three days ago, you were commanding a battle under high pressure, and at this time, if you have to tell the logistics that two-thirds of the food is gone, I'm afraid you'll faint on the spot."

"I feel the urge to go down here right now." Kun Liang Ti said.

"Anyway," Gordon suddenly raised his head, "aren't we a little too calm?" ”

"When you say that...... Kun Liangti removed his hand from his eyes, "that's true." ”

"According to your temper, so many big things have happened, you should have exploded a long time ago, but now you are calm as if you are waiting for lunch." Gordon said.

"Wouldn't that be nice, at least not so much. As for the solution, what did the quartermaster of logistics say? ”

"The day before yesterday, I committed suicide."

Kun Liangti nodded, "It looks like he's under a lot of pressure, but the problem still needs to be solved." ”

"Then I'm afraid there's only one way to do it now." "Let's pray that Your Excellency the Marshal will soon open the Corridor of Triumph and the Norton jump point, launch a landing battle against Truman, and establish a supply line," Gordon said. ”

"I'm afraid it will be a long time, and before that our warriors will probably go hungry to war. I don't have a lot of energy reserves for mechas, but we don't have many mecha troops. ”

"Yes, there were more than 500,000 mecha troops in the Marine Corps stationed at Truman, but now, there are less than 100,000." Gordon pointed to Skynet, "Look at how long it has been, we have lost seventeen cities in the Eastern Hemisphere, and hundreds of thousands of troops have been killed. And we're just sitting here now, just passively watching it happen. ”

"Yes, we can't do anything, we have lost space-based satellite weapons in outer space, air supremacy is not in our hands, and we only have some advantages on land." Kun Liangti also picked up a laser pointer, "Look, all of our troops, except for a few small units, all of our troops have been squeezed into the Phoenix Plain. The unity of forces seems to have the advantage of resistance, but in fact, this is to catch turtles! We're in the urn, and it's up to them to kill us when we want to. ”

"It's not that we're all without advantages," Gordon opened the Skynet record, "because our Skynet has been suppressed and destroyed, the only area we can cover is here in the Phoenix Plain, and we can't detect other areas. ”

"What do you mean?" Kun Liangti sat upright, his expression serious.

"Are our scattered troops really just a little bit of sporadic troops?" As Gordon's words fell, a list appeared on the Skynet screen, "These seven armored divisions were all scattered during the great retreat in the Western Hemisphere, and their whereabouts are still unknown. You look at the numbers of these armored divisions, they are all ace knife divisions of the Marine Corps, with their strength, is it really possible to be annihilated? ”

"No, they'll lie dormant and wait for their time."

"That's right, there are still our troops in the more than forty cities we lost outside of the first time, and they will continue to resist according to the rules of operation behind enemy lines." "So we can't be stubborn, we need to open a way to the outside and contact them to cover our Skynet again!" ”

"Resource Highway 98 north of the Phoenix Plains?"

"That's right, it's there, just open there, hold the road, and we'll open the door to the plain." Gordon took a few deep breaths, his emotions were not a good thing for him, taking a deep breath would make him feel better, "Look, these are all tinder, a little bit, very inconspicuous, but as long as a fire falls, it can set the prairie on fire, and at that time, it will be the time for us to counterattack!" ”

"Can you do it in less than a week?"

"Of course it's possible," Gordon's voice was full of confidence, "it won't be long, Your Excellency the Marshal must know the danger of Truman's situation, and he will definitely send troops to attack the jump point in the near future!" I'm sure he'll do that! ”
