Chapter 554: The Great War is Imminent
Morning.
It's not dawn yet. The gates of Tieling City were opened, and military vehicles drove out, accompanied by groups of well-equipped soldiers.
Outside the city gate, there is an open land with a radius of twenty miles, and not far ahead is the canyon and mountainous area. Two roads through the canyon, one south and one north, are located against each other.
"Artillery formation!"
The trumpet sounded. An artillery battalion composed of hundreds of artillery trucks is fortified at the entrance of the canyon passage in the north.
The muzzle of a tube of swarthy guns was raised, and although it was dark in the night, it still glowed with a cold light.
in the sky. The 'buzzing' sound continued, and one after another rotary-wing drones circled to reconnoiter the enemy's situation. There are also fighter jets similar to iron birds, roaring loudly and rapidly skimming high in the air.
The official guards of Tieling City were all dispatched at this moment.
As the leader, Fang Zhenting also walked out of the city gate surrounded by a group of guards. He is not as light as last night, wearing heavy armor and carrying a hammer the size of a wheel on his shoulder, and the whole person looks mighty and domineering, brave and extraordinary.
"Tell the lord of the city!"
"The 1st artillery battalion is already in place!"
"The armored regiment and the second artillery battalion are stationed in the canyon with the army!"
"All aircraft of the Air Defense Company have been lifted into the air!"
……
Signal corps came to report the situation. After hearing this, Fang Zhenting nodded and asked, "What about the hunter team?" Did they make a move? ”
"Not yet!"
The communication soldier smiled wryly, thought for a while, and said, "The new hunter commander, Lord Fang Xiaobao, is still in the city, saying that he is using the limited time to integrate the hunter groups and train the tactics!" ”
It's a good thing to sharpen the gun in battle, but time doesn't allow it.
Fang Zhenting said in a deep voice: "Tell Commander Fang that in two hours at most, the corpse tide forward will arrive at the Chaos Canyon...... Let him lead his men and horses into the southern canyon as soon as possible! ”
"Yes!" The Messenger turned and left, delivering instructions.
Fang Zhenting did not leave, but waited in place. In just twenty minutes, the hunters and horses were mighty and marched out of Tieling City.
Miscellaneous personnel, miscellaneous equipment, and even more miscellaneous vehicles. It looks like a rabble, but it leads a team of men, well-equipped and imposing.
Two armored vehicles drove out first. One of them stopped next to the city gate, and the windows rolled down, revealing Fang Xiaobao's smiling face.
"City Lord, your armor is cool enough!"
At the moment of the war, it is rare that Fang Xiaobao is still interested in joking. Although Fang Zhenting was in a heavy mood, he still replied with a smile: "The bluffing thing is really on the battlefield, and in the face of the corpses, you have to rely on your own strength!" ”
He said modestly, but Fang Xiaobao's eyes were sharp, and of course he saw that the equipment of this No. 1 master in Tieling City was definitely a golden battle armor.
An A-level pure strength type evolutionary, plus the increase in battle armor, and the soaring combat power, is by no means comparable to ordinary evolutionaries.
Get out of the car. Fang Xiaobao handed Fang Zhenting a cigarette. The two faced each other, swallowing clouds and spitting fog.
"Commander Fang, how is the personnel training?"
"Good! Very good! ”
"You have a lot of confidence, and I have a lot of confidence...... May we win this war! ”
Fang Zhenting smiled. Fang Xiaobao saw it in his eyes, and he had a high opinion of this city lord in his heart. Not to mention anything else, just knowing that the tide of tens of millions of corpses is coming, and without reinforcements to increase their holdings, it is enough to be admirable enough to lead the troops to stay behind with firm faith.
"You and I are each responsible for guarding a canyon pass, and in terms of firepower, I can't do much other than limited air support!"
Extinguish the cigarette butts. Fang Zhenting looked at Fang Xiaobao and stretched out his right hand, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of shouting 'brother', please!" ”
"Where the duty lies, it is incumbent!"
Fang Xiaobao laughed. At the same time, they stretched out their hands, and the two shook each other tightly.
"Time is running out!"
When Fang Xiaobao withdrew his hand, he looked at the sky and said slowly: "It's still the same sentence, the southern canyon passage is guarded by hunters led by me, you can rest assured that there will never be a mistake!" ”
"Good!"
That's what Fang Zhenting wants. He then stated that if his guards could control the situation, they would come to the aid as soon as possible.
"Old Fang!"
After hearing this, Fang Xiaobao changed his tone, patted Fang Zhenting on the shoulder like an old friend, and said with a smile: "I don't have to worry about you over there...... If! I mean, if the war is tight on your side, just give me a notice, and my brother will come to your aid immediately! ”
The number of people, the Guards troops are one hundred thousand, which is three times more than the hunter team.
Equipment, except for the Star Sea Hunter Regiment, the Guards are much better than the other Hunter Regiments!
Weapons, the number of evolutionaries, etc., and everything else, the guards are much stronger.
Therefore, Fang Zhenting did not take Fang Xiaobao's help to heart, but expressed his gratitude verbally.
"The arrival of the corpse tide is a calamity, but also an opportunity!"
Fang Zhenting finally said, "As long as you can survive it, those who survive will get a huge return...... Brother Fang, I hope that we will have a chance to meet, and even more hopefully, one day, we can witness with our own eyes that your Star Sea Hunter Group can become the most powerful hunter team in the Federation! ”
At this point, he arched his hand and led his men away.
"Well, this old man is still a good person!"
looked at Fang Zhenting's back as he left. Fang Xiaobao pondered for a moment, then stretched out his hand towards the other party and pointed lightly.
There seemed to be a little golden light, transparent and invisible, attached to Fang Zhenting's back.
No one saw it, let alone perceive it, including Fang Zhenting himself. Only Fang Xiaobao had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Brothers, it's time for us to play!"
Raise your arms and shout. With the roar of engines, the convoy of hunters began to fish towards the southern canyon. There, they will line up to meet the incoming tide of corpses.
The Rocky Gorge is about 20 kilometers long, and the internal terrain is complex, with two main canyon passages, which guard the gateway to Tieling City and are natural barriers.
If you want to block the attack, according to common sense, you should choose a narrow position. However, Fang Xiaobao did not take the usual path, and led the hunter team to wander around the canyon for more than half an hour, and chose an open place in the middle section.
He certainly has his point.
This open space resembles a gourd-shaped, with a 'gourd mouth' at the front end, that is, a narrow entrance for the corpse tide, and a hundred meters into it, which is an open field. The middle end of the 'gourd waist' is a narrow passage, and then enters the 'gourd bottom', a larger open field.
Fortified positions. Set up two lines of defense, the first is located in the 'gourd waist', the narrow passage directly in front of it, with a wide line of sight, which can effectively block the attack. The second line of defense is located at the 'bottom of the gourd', and the assumption is much the same, when the first line of defense is tight, it can retreat, rely on the favorable terrain, and continue to block.
The idea was spoken, and the leaders of the hunter regiments, including Si Yuanjun, agreed.
Act fast. Under the personal command of Fang Xiaobao, in just twenty minutes, the two lines of defense had been set up.
Vehicles of all types, centered on two armored vehicles, were neatly lined up in the first line of defense. Most of the hunter vehicles have been armed and modified, although they are not as good as the Guard artillery, but the number of heavy weapons such as various types of machine guns and howitzers is extremely large.
The end of the establishment of the position. Fang Xiaobao opened his voice and directly gave an order: "All evolutionaries, all assemble!" ”
As a hunter commander, he gives orders in wartime, and no one dares not to listen. Soon, the evolutionaries gathered in the first line of defense.
The number was five hundred and twenty-three. Among them, the Star Sea Hunter Group accounts for most of them.
There were more than 30,000 ordinary hunters left, all of whom were arranged by Fang Xiaobao on both flanks of the defensive line.
"I don't want you to take on the work of charging into battle!"
Fang Xiaobao looked at those ordinary hunters, opened his voice, and shouted loudly: "You are only responsible for shooting black guns...... Do you understand how to shoot black guns? To put it bluntly, it's a long-range sniper, see a living corpse, one at a time! ”
Ordinary hunters understood. Originally, they all looked solemn, but at this moment, they were smiling.
The reason is simple, the new hunter commander, did not use them as cannon fodder, on the contrary, he was in the safest position.
"Ugly words ahead, you shoot black guns to aim at the point, don't greet your own family...... Once discovered, Lao Tzu cut off his chickens and turtles, and the military law dealt with it! ”
Fang Xiaobao half-jokingly said rough words. Instantly get a response from all normal hunters.
"Commander, rest assured, our marksmanship is very accurate!"
"Three hundred meters away, a headshot!"
"Only fight the living corpse, and never accidentally injure the comrades!"
One word from you, one word from me. The noise in the canyon echoed, and it was very lively.
"Stand freely and choose your own ambush position...... For you, there are only two orders, one fire, two retreat! ”
Fang Xiaobao smiled all over his face and said loudly: "Listen to my orders, after repelling the tide of corpses, everyone will share in the loot...... Those who want to get rich, those who want to buy armor equipment, and those brothers who want to become evolutionaries cheer up Lao Tzu...... Remember! Accurate every shot is your mission, and you will be rewarded for your achievements in the future! ”
"Yes!" The crowd shouted in unison. The mountain echoes and endures.
Arrange the normal hunters, and it's the turn of the evolutionary. The members of the Star Sea Hunter Regiment are still divided into four teams. In addition, more than 100 evolutionaries from various hunter teams were divided into two teams according to their talent characteristics.
Si Yuanjun led a team. Yan Bing Yan Frost led a team.
"Yuan Jun, two girls, are you all right?" Fang Xiaobao asked with a smile.
Si Yuanjun shook his head. He was still dressed up last night, wearing a combat uniform, looking very casual. But Fang Xiaobao checked that this person had an extra breastplate on his body.
A very strangely shaped cuirass!
"According to Brother Fang's tactics, we are confident that we will complete the task!" Yan Bing and Yan Shuang, the two sisters, are all wearing silver armor, delicate and lovely, and full of confidence.
"Good!"
Fang Xiaobao didn't say much, greeted Si Yuanjun and Yan Bing Yanshuang, and went to the car for a drink. At the same time, all vehicles equipped with stereos were instructed to turn on the music and relax.
The Great War is coming. Tense nerves need to be relaxed.
When a variety of soft and energetic music plays, it adds a bit of excitement to the icy canyon and effectively relieves the tension of every hunter.
Until...... The sky was slightly bright.
A loud explosion was heard from far and near.
