Checkmate! ”

In the gloomy underground headquarters, Pei Litong turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw a staff officer hurriedly walking in front of him

"The War Department reports that the 2nd Regiment and the 1st Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of our 13th Armored Division have all withdrawn from their positions and have been assembled," the dusty staff officer saluted solemnly, "The 1st Brigade, 2nd Brigade, 3rd Brigade and 1st Regiment of the 51st Infantry Division have also withdrawn from their positions and marched in the direction of Hot Spring Town. At present, the vanguard has entered the Caro Grand Canyon. ”

Pei Litong turned his head to Balmer, the commander of the 51st Division, but saw that Balmer was looking at him at the same time. The two glanced at each other, and their hearts were filled with a burst of relief and joy.

The team has finally been withdrawn!

Prior to this, the positions of the second line had been under the onslaught of the Jeppen, and the original evacuation plan had been repeatedly postponed. Several times, Pei Litong and Balmer are almost out of confidence!

Several times, they wanted to give the order for a forced evacuation. However, when the order came to his lips, he swallowed it back stiffly.

Pulling away from the troops at the risk of being pursued by Jeppen is a rout that cannot be cleaned up if there is a slight carelessness! When the time comes, let alone break through, there won't be much left to make it to Hot Spring Town alive!

Although the two of them were in the command headquarters, they were very calm on their faces. However, only they know how anxious they are to spend their days like years.

In this kind of torment, when they were all on the verge of collapse, the Jeppen people suddenly stopped their flood of attacks as if they were ecstasy.

Troops. It was miraculously and smoothly withdrawn. Not only did they withdraw, but they even had a lot of time to arrange and shrink the defensive positions to block the position. There is plenty of time to march calmly.

"Are all the troops arranged after the break?" Pei Tong asked.

"On the front line. Our army has completed the contraction defense. The second line of defense held the high ground for two hours. The third line of defense held the high ground for four hours. The staff officer looked at the document: "Preliminary estimate." The enemy is trying to bypass our lines. It takes at least six hours. Direct Attack Words. It takes at least three hours! ”

"What the hell are the Jeppen people up to. Did something happen to them?! Balmer smacked his lips and fanned the collar of his uniform.

Due to the serious lack of energy, the local command has stopped all systems except Skynet. Despite the fact that it is winter. The modular metal room was packed with people. It's also stuffy.

Dressed well on weekdays. Balmer is known as a Confucian general. Now the face is greasy.

He has a large collar and a wide open curl. A beard that hasn't been shaven for a few days is like weeds that have just come out of the ground at different heights. Unlike Confucianism, he is like a butcher under the scorching sun.

"Whatever he does! As long as Lao Tzu's soldiers are torn off, let's wait and see! Pei Litong slapped the electronic sand table and gritted his teeth.

Now, the 1st Regiment of the 13th Armored Division, which is moving towards Hot Springs, has almost arrived in Hot Springs within four hours of the follow-up troops, and it must follow no matter what! Once the whole army arrives, it will be moved. If you can't rush over, you only have one chance.

The only armored regiment stabbed forward like a knife in front of the road. The infantry who followed behind could only use portable artillery fusion grenades, guns, bayonets, and even fists and teeth to fight a bloody way to survive! Therefore, if you withdraw one more person, when you break through, you will have one more chance of survival!

The current situation is already good, and it can't be better. When I think about it, it's like a dream. I don't know which god suddenly opened his eyes and blessed him.

"Have all the blocking positions been arranged," Pei Litong asked, "where is Marshal Li now, and is the scientific research team ready?" ”

"It's all set! It's always ready to go! The staff officer replied.

Balmer reached out and smiled, "It's time for us to go!" ”

"Maybe it's our last journey!" Pei Litong stretched out his palm and Balmer slammed a blow, looked around at the combat staff officers who had already stood up and waited for orders, and waved his hand: "Go!" ”

As soon as Pei Litong's voice fell, suddenly, a hurried prompt sound came out of the Skynet computer.

The screen flickered, the text data scrolled rapidly, and a document was automatically transmitted.

"Sir! Come and see! "The staff officer who accepted the document had just declassified it and opened it when he called out.

Pei Litong and Balmer, who had already walked to the door, looked back at the Skynet screen strangely.

The file was opened. It was a video, a war report. The footage was apparently taken by a drone, and in the footage from top to bottom, two Chakner armored units are killing each other.

What's going on?

Pei Litong and Balmer walked quickly to Skynet, and the staff officers behind them, who were originally busy evacuating, also hula and surrounded them. Everyone knows that maybe this is the reason why the Jeppen people suddenly stopped attacking!

The battle on the screen grabbed everyone's hearts tightly from the beginning.

The mood went up and down as the battle progressed. Cruel and ferocious, the two sides are like two hot lava, and the first contact is a life-and-death killing. The battle scenes were shocking and constantly impacted everyone's nervous senses.

When they saw the ten civets, like the Grim Reaper, killing and killing in the ambushed Jeppen armored battalion, everyone was already sweating profusely and dizzy.

And at the end of the video, when the seriously injured Chuckner mech ran to his companion in the heavy mech with the open hatch, the entire command was silent. Everyone looked at each other dumbfounded.

It's your own people! Which army are they, where did their mechs come from, how could they appear behind enemy lines, who are those ten God of War level fighters, and who is commanding this battle?! All kinds of questions are like waves of the sea slapping at people's hearts again and again with great force. The violent impact makes people unable to come back to their senses.

After the video, it was a battle report from the 15th position.

After the present unit, the positional command sent two reconnaissance teams to cross the line of fire behind enemy lines

Judging from the information transmitted by unmanned reconnaissance planes and reconnaissance teams one after another, the Jeppen people have no mind on attacking. They massively mobilized their forces and searched in all directions. The sky, the ground, and the dense search procession were sprinkled into the mountains.

Even idiots know what they're looking for!

The "chief" operational staff officer said to Pei Litong: Judging from the 15 position, this unit behind the enemy is currently moving closer to the front line. If they try to penetrate the enemy's sortie positions, with the current strength of the high ground, it will not be enough to support and respond to it. Colonel Wang Yuan asked for instructions. ”

"Does anyone know these warriors?" Pei Litong personally fixed the two pictures with his own hands, and asked the soldier who jumped out of the mecha and the other Chakner soldiers in the open heavy mecha cockpit. He thought carefully about the uniforms of these soldiers, obviously not just on the battlefield, and among them were the epaulettes with iron wires, and there were also ordinary infantrymen.

"Sir," a captain and staff officer stepped forward and said to an infantryman in the cockpit: "I know this person, he is the corporal of the 1st Battalion of the 2nd Company of the 1792nd Regiment where I was originally located, Sun Ping, and their company commander Nash are fellow villagers and friends of the Central Plains Star in the Long March Galaxy, and I know several sharp knives under him, and they are one of them!" ”

"The first battalion and the second company of the 1792 regiment?" Another staff officer stood up: "Isn't that the company of the 347 position?" ”

Before the words fell, someone had already called up the mission log and the list of fighters of the 1792 regiment in Skynet. The moment they saw the photo of the soldier number 39597322 soldier Sun Ping, someone could be completely sure that the soldier under the electronic wall lamp in the cockpit was Sun Ping!

At that time, the last location of this company was the place where the spaceship crashed!

: Two more fighters were identified by several staff officers drawn from the combat units below. All the soldiers of the 51st Mechanized Infantry Division were marked as missing by Skynet when the first line of defense was breached.

Pei Litong put his hands behind his back and turned around a few times anxiously.

It's a conundrum!

The troops were about to draw out the only armored regiment, which had arrived in Hot Springs, waiting for the arrival of the follow-up troops. If you don't leave now, you may never have a chance to leave!

The commander of the position, Colonel Wang Yuan, made a judgment about the movement of this force, after all, it was just a judgment!

After the force completed the ambush, it turned south and headed south. Leaving the line of sight of the position, at least more than an hour! When they will break through to this side, and when they break through, it is unknown what kind of chain reaction will be caused by the Jiepeng army! It is impossible for any calm commander to gamble the lives of more than 20,000 people in two divisions for the slim future of a small unidentified unit!

But can we watch this team behind enemy lines fall into a siege, so that these warriors can fight their way out, and then the entire second line of defense has been abandoned?!

However, in order to meet this team, it is necessary to leave at least two regiments of troops back on the high ground, and at the critical moment, it is even necessary to attack forward from the high ground to attract the enemy's attention! Without mecha support, the infantry will have no way out of life when they encounter the enemy's armored units in the field!

Ci is not in charge of the army, and a company does not seem to be worth paying such a big price!

But this team had just annihilated an armored battalion, and perhaps more. Since the escape, when has there been such a hearty victory! An entire armored company is so precious to the current troops, and more importantly, there are ten civet cats that are like gods!

Heaven and man are at war.

To withdraw, or not to withdraw?!

In an instant, countless thoughts had already turned in his mind, and Pei Litong's gaze was nailed to the high ground.

The sky was bright, and the first sun was sprinkled in the clouds and mist on the top of the mountain. The morning glow is like a rainbow. Down the mountain, but still in the shadows. The cold wind whined, the canopy swayed, and the flat ground full of craters was dusty.

More than 2,000 ragged Chackner prisoners of war slowly walked out of the prisoner of war camp escorted by hundreds of infantry and dozens of mechs. Step into the dust.

The three-person team stretched for one kilometer, and the front team had already gone far away, and the back team slowly walked out of the camp. On the guard towers on both sides of the camp gate, Jeppen guards looked at these ants who had the power of life and death in their own hands with cold eyes.

Leaving the camp gate to the west, you can see the mountains in the distance when you raise your eyes. The peaks of the mountains rise, the valleys fall, and the overlapping valleys used to be the positions that are still in the hands of the Chakner army!

As they marched in the direction of the 15 positions, the prisoners of war knew what they were about to face.

In the mist and dust, who roared "People die in the sky, immortal for thousands of years" The long queue was suddenly bursting with laughter.

The Jeppen soldier in charge of escorting him didn't pay attention with a sneer.

In their eyes, these two thousand prisoners of war are already a pile of dead people. No matter how impassioned the pig that entered the slaughterhouse, in the eyes of the butcher was nothing more than a ridiculous performance of the dying moment. With a knife, I only had to kick my legs and struggle.

Looking at the slowly moving POW team on the wide valley plain through the mecha farsighted device, Nakayama was expressionless.

In less than three hours, a team of unknown origin completely annihilated its own three fully armored battalions and themselves, not only did they not know the whereabouts of this team, but they didn't even know who the other party was! At the same time that Lieutenant General Ma Ji gave an order to himself, and then threw another company or even a platoon to march forward, the second regiment and one battalion were killed!

After thirteen years in the army, he has walked step by step from a corporal to his current position, and has entered the elite training class, which is only one step away from the major general. Originally, this pursuit was just a sheep-like entertainment, but who knows, in the end, it became the biggest failure in his life! Come to think of it, how ridiculous it is!

A smile appeared on the corner of Nakayama's mouth, and with a push of the lever, the mecha activated the battle mode and stood up suddenly.

As soon as his mecha moved, on the flat ground of the mountain, the three hundred silent [civets] surrounding around him also stood up at the same time. The movements are uniform, and it looks as if they are the same.

Nakayama didn't have to look back, and he knew the movements of his subordinates.

This is the 172nd Armored Division, the most elite special battalion, which was created by him in the middle wing! The 172nd Division is not an ace armored division like the 59th Division, but this special company is definitely no worse than the best fighters of the 59th Division! Everyone here is a seventh-level or higher machine! Among them, there are thirty eighth-level and two ninth-level!

The prisoners of war at the foot of the mountain, like a long snake, moved slowly.

A glimmer flashed in Zhongshan Yi's eyes.

This is his only chance. In order to set this trap, he had already ordered the remaining three battalions of the 1st and 2nd regiments to slow down. At the same time, the three battalions of the three regiments, in addition to one frontal defense of the high ground, the other two battalions were also scattered in the mountainous area with a radius of 500 square kilometers.

Two thousand prisoners of war and this eye-catching void are the bait.

If the ghost troops don't show up, they will be gone, and as soon as they appear, these three hundred mechs and the three regiments and three battalions left behind will drag them down. It only takes half an hour, and the troops distributed around will be surrounded at high speed and completely bury them!

Calling up the battle plan from the computer, Nakayama looked at his last straw again.

The remaining six armored battalions of the 172nd Division are now in place. The two regiments of the 59th Division are also moving closer to this side. If the enemy is able to eat his own armored battalion so quickly, then they should have more than two battalions in force, no more than one regiment, and they will not concentrate their actions, otherwise, they would have been shown long ago.

According to the strength of a regiment, his two battalions are enough to contain them for more than half an hour. And several other battalions are also in positions that can echo each other. Even if this ghost army doesn't save people and wants to take advantage of the opportunity to attack on the periphery, they will fall into a trap!

"Master, will the enemy not come?" In the private channel, the adjutant's voice sounded. He was the lieutenant of the Zhongshan wing and a retainer of the Zhongshan family. The life of the family has long been tied to Zhongshan Yi.

The corners of Zhongshan Yi's mouth pulled up a sneer: "They may not come here, if I were them, I would choose to fight the farthest regiment and battalion on the periphery first." With their ambush methods, it was a delicious dessert. If they can solve the battle in half an hour, we will only have to watch. ”

The adjutant was silent.

He knew that in addition to the two thousand prisoners of war who were decoys, a regiment and a battalion, located forty kilometers away from the rear, were also decoys.

Nakayama doesn't care how many people are sacrificed. As long as you can lure this ghost army out.

While the opponent attacked the first regiment and one battalion, several other battalions of the 172nd Division would quickly move closer to the first battalion and form an encirclement with the 59th Division behind the first battalion. Even if a battalion is eaten, the other party will not be able to run away!

What will the opponent do?!

"Divisional Commander!" In the regional channel, the voice of the electronic squad leader appeared: "Now the signal is jamming, three kilometers away, they are out!" ”

With the squad leader's rapid cry, he saw a small hill not far from the prisoner of war team, and an armored unit rushed towards the escort mecha like a tiger descending from the mountain. The light of the energy cannon poured down the mountain like water, and it exploded violently, as dense as 100,000 electric light cannons.

The team of prisoners of war was suddenly in chaos, and the soldiers and mecha in charge of escorting did not care about collecting prisoners of war, but only desperately gathered in the middle to organize defense. In an instant, two or three escort mechs had already been destroyed.

"How is the civet cat our mech?!" The adjutant roared in surprise.

"This is my mecha of the first regiment and the second battalion!" Zhongshan Yi looked at the dozens of [civet cats] that rushed out of the mountain with blazing eyes, and said lightly. He stood still, not at all inclined to make a move.

"Division commander, we" the adjutant couldn't help but remind.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, in the weak counterattack of the escort troops, a civet cat that staggered and rolled down the hill turned into a skyrocketing fireball, exploded violently, wrapped in dust, and raised a small black mushroom cloud.

"Do you believe that these mecha are the main force of the other party?" Nakayama's voice was as cold and hard as iron.

The adjutant quickly understood.

Rushing down the hill, there were only a few dozen mechas. And it's all Jeppen mechs. Obviously, this is the bait thrown by the opponent! This company, even if it saves the prisoners of war, it is impossible to break through the blockade, but once the Zhongshan wing starts the layout, the opponent may be able to smell the danger, or they have other plans!

The battle was fierce at the bottom of the mountain, and it was still quiet on the mountain.

"Divisional Commander!" The leader of the electronic squad reported: "A regiment and a battalion report that they have encountered a powerful electronic attack. ”

Nakayama smiled. He finally waited for the news he wanted to wait for.

As he drove the mecha and turned around and walked in the other direction of the mountain, he pointed to a company commander of the special battalion: "Give you a hundred people, ten minutes." Packed up the people below and rushed over to meet. ”

"Yes! Teacher! The company shouted.

Nakayama turned around and strode away: "Remember, including prisoners of war, chickens and dogs are not left!" ”…… Yesterday, my wife passed away, hehe, I went to play at night
