At this point, a large area south of Stronghold 9 was covered in thick smoke.

Especially in the southeast area, the area covered by thick smoke is more extensive, where there are not only rocket smoke bombs fired by the South Wharton mecha, but also gun grenade smoke bombs fired by Li Yi.

Not to mention the wide range of smoke, the smoke and dust produced by the combustion of special materials still accumulate and do not disperse, and almost uniformly maintain a height of about 30 meters above the ground, which looks like a neat black cloud, covering all the objects below, and the whole scene looks extremely strange.

Due to the obstruction of vision, all mechas, including Li Yi, in the smoke, have turned on the infrared night vision system, and it is impossible to identify the target when this function is turned on, just to be able to see the ground terrain clearly, otherwise they will not be able to walk normally.

Even so, there are still a few mechas, perhaps because the mecha soldiers in them are not skilled in operation, or they are not knowledgeable enough to deal with unexpected situations and accidentally fall, and there are many mecha that have not fallen, but they are also swaying left and right when they walk, which looks very embarrassing.

In the face of such an environment, if that mecha hadn't come, this effect would be nothing, but now everyone knows that the killing god is nearby, and many mechs have to be more careful when moving forward, and their movement speed has slowed down.

As the 1st Mecha Regiment of the whole division, it has always been a top regiment that undertakes the task of attacking fortifications, but at this moment, the regiment commander Jeff can't help but retreat.

This battle is really impossible to fight, this environment is extremely unfavorable to his side, the sniper plan formulated before will definitely not be implemented, and now the only goal can only be to enter the No. 9 stronghold, but the problem is not to mention that there is a fire position in the stronghold, just to say that there is a killing god nearby nearby, which has already given him a headache.

Commander Ebel, who could command the operation, did not change the order, and still asked the 1st Regiment to continue to carry out the combat mission, and he could guess a little bit of the commander's thoughts, which was nothing more than to let the 1st Regiment drag the target first, and then encircle it after taking the No. 8 stronghold.

But the question is, can you hold the other party back?

And even if it can be delayed, for how long? How big will the losses be?

As soon as I thought of this, I heard a scream from the tactical channel!

Then I heard another person shouting in great panic: "Team 8 has found the target!" He's ......"

Before he finished speaking, the man also lost contact with the same scream.

Immediately afterward, I saw several shuttle energy rays shoot out from the dense fog.

The direction of its firing was first a flat sweep, and then it soon began to sweep into the sky, and then the energy ray stopped, and the next moment, there were several belated explosions somewhere in the southeast corner!

Jeff hurriedly shouted, "Team 8, report your casualties!" ”

“……”

There was a dead silence in the tactical channel, and no one responded for a long time.

You don't need to look at it to know that this is the last mecha of Team 8 that fired energy rays and rockets indiscriminately, but now that the attack has stopped, it is obvious that this combat team has died en masse!

Jeff couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart!

How many seconds have it been?

Less than 10 seconds!

Three mechs were killed by the other party like this?

Jeff asked, if it were him, would he be able to do it to this extent?

The answer, of course, is no, even if he has a good line of sight, even if he encounters only a high-grade civilian mecha soldier, he can only kill one mecha in close combat within 10 seconds, and at most injure one more, which is already heavenly!

Don't think that this seems like a big difference, Jeff knows very well that this is a gap that can never be crossed!

"Who knows the approximate location of Operation Group 8?" Jeff asked, with a fluke in his mind.

"I don't know ......"

"I only know that it is in the southeast corner, but I don't know where I have gone......"

At this time, the commander of the 3rd Regiment, Adrian, who had been dismissed, suggested on the tactical channel: "Jeff, just turn on the active radar!" We are all in a group of three mechs, and the other party is only one mech, so it is easy to distinguish them! ”

Although Adrien is no longer the commander of the regiment, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and he has just lost the command of the 3rd Mecha Regiment, after all, he is still a high-ranking viscount, and his status has not changed substantially, even if he can't stay in the mecha unit after he returns, he may become the commander of an infantry division or even the commander of an infantry regiment.

So Jeff was still very kind of to the other party, and hesitated for half a second and responded: "Once the active radar is turned on, those soldiers in the stronghold can also see us." ”

Not to mention the North Wharton infantry in the stronghold, as soon as these cannon fodder were mentioned, Adrien was angry: "We are a straggler, even if they can see us, the threat to us will not be greater than that mecha!" Now we definitely can't deal with that mech, so we can either simply withdraw to the base or rush into the stronghold and destroy the bunch of minions! ”

Jeff thought about it and felt that Adrien's words also made sense, now the horizontal and vertical are all passive beatings, and there are more lice and they are not afraid of biting, so it is better to speed up and rush to the stronghold, so that at least the mecha will lose the cooperation of those infantry in the stronghold.

However, Jeff still didn't agree to turn on the active radar, and it was still secondary to be seen by the infantry after turning on the active radar, the key is that the perverted mecha, even if it can distinguish friend from foe in a short time, but with other people's mecha operation technology, I'm afraid it is still myself who suffers.

As for the magnetic field detector, the whole group of mechs didn't turn on at all, because it was very useful for that mecha, but it was useless for their own side, and there were friendly mechs everywhere nearby, all of which were interference sources, and there was no way to effectively identify the enemy.

"Full speed ahead! We took the No. 9 ...... directly"

"Target found!"

"The target is me, Combat Group 11!"

"Be careful!"

"Ahh

"Hurry back!"

"Don't retreat! He's behind you! ”

"Save Me ......"

“……”

"Commander, I ejected the escape pod, this battle can't be fought...... Yes! ”

"Zizi Zi ......"

As soon as Jeff gave the order, before the last few words could be spoken, an alarm sounded in the tactical channel, followed by a cacophony, and then soon only an electromagnetic busy sound remained, and finally it was quiet again.

There is no combat group again!

Three more mechs have been lost!

Jeff was furious at this point!

A battalion sent earlier was only half of it when it was brought back by Adrien, and now it has lost six mechs one after another, and it was also killed by others without even seeing the enemy's face, including none of the mechs in the escape pod!

It doesn't matter if the mecha is lost, but the loss caused by the death of each mecha soldier is simply incalculable, and it can't even be measured purely by military merit, not only the training cost is extremely high, but the source of soldiers is also very limited!

After all, not everyone who meets the requirements of knowing the quotient is willing to go to the mecha army, the vast majority of people will choose to go to the space force, compared to the mecha, the space starship is people's favorite, that is a broader world!

Anger turned to anger, Jeff did not lose his mind, immediately turned the page away, and ordered again: "Target Stronghold No. 9, go full speed and take it with all your might!" The smoke grenades stopped firing and we rushed straight over! ”

This order was given in a very timely manner, and at this time the morale of the officers and men of the whole regiment had dropped to the freezing point, and they were not afraid of confronting the enemy head-on, but they were very afraid of being killed silently by others, and the unknown danger and the possibility of the enemy lurking nearby made everyone frightened.

If you continue to be passive like this, and don't use that mecha to kill you, the people below will panic themselves, in fact, at this moment, some combat teams have begun to secretly avoid the southeast direction and concentrate to the west.

After the order was given, more than a hundred mechs finally regained their morale and began to move faster, wanting to leave this death zone shrouded in black clouds as soon as possible.

At the same time, after killing the enemy's two combat groups, Li Yi also changed the direction of travel, from diagonally inserting to the southeast to accelerating due east, just in front of the opponent.

He is not a master tactician, but he is a master of psychology, and he basically guesses what kind of general reactions and actions the enemy will have.

Even people who don't understand psychology can think about it from their own perspective, and they can think that the other party may give up the extremely passive smoke bomb tactics, and since the smoke can't be dispersed all of a sudden, the only choice is, of course, to rush out of the smoke.

Therefore, Li Yi's direction of travel is at the north end of the smoke, even if he is wrong, it doesn't matter, where he is killed, there is no difference.

On the way, Li Yi was sure that his judgment was not wrong, because just by listening to the sound, he could hear that the mecha coming from the south was obviously speeding up in his direction!

Just wait for the rabbit!

But it's not enough!

Li Yi immediately instructed Gary in the stronghold to let his mortar position be filled with smoke bombs, and at any time at his order to fire smoke bombs in this direction, and their task at that time was to cover the range of 800-400 meters south of the stronghold!

At the same time as giving instructions, Li Yi had already determined the location of a mecha combat group less than 50 meters away from him through the magnetic field detector, and thirty meters to the left and right of him, there was also a mecha combat team rushing in his direction, but the specific location was still difficult to locate for the time being.

After the mecha pulled the carbon-ion black light knife in his hand, he quietly touched the mecha combat team in front of him in the billowing smoke!

This combat team, like the other mechs, did not turn on the useless magnetic field detectors, and they were located almost a little south-east, thinking that they were safe, so they had no idea that death had come!

At a distance of less than 50 meters, there was actually only a small hill between the two sides, and Li Yi squatted there when he touched the north side of the small hill, after all, at such a close distance, the mechanical friction sound emitted by the mecha was easy to arouse the vigilance of the other party.

Of course, this is also because Li Yi's personality has always been like this, and his style of acting is very cautious, in fact, when the three mecha are together, the sound interferes with each other, and it may not be possible to judge that there is a "monster" in front of him.

When the three finished mechs walked to the south end of the hillside, the "monster" did not move.

When the mecha at the front climbed the hill, the "monster" crouching below still didn't move.

At this moment, the distance between the two sides in a straight line is only 15 meters, it is simply a matter of looking up and not looking down, if it is not for the dense fog blocking the line of sight, as long as both sides raise their mecha arms, the mecha swords in their hands can collide together!

But the "monster" still didn't move, and it was still very patient and waited for the opportunity!

When the mecha in the lead began to go downhill, and the two mechs on the left and right sides climbed the hill, the "monster" finally moved!

I saw that he first squatted and stabbed straight up, and almost effortlessly stabbed the mecha in the abdomen halfway downhill, and this time the mecha soldiers inside didn't even have time to scream before they could scream and died on the spot by the mecha war knife through the head!

Because this mecha was going downhill, it began to fall down under the action of inertia after being killed in seconds, and the "monster" had already got up at this time, and its free left arm took advantage of the situation to wrap its body around and hold it in his arms.

Then, the "monster" stepped under his feet, hid behind the mecha that had been killed in seconds, and rushed directly to another mecha on the left!
