Chapter 16: The Power of the Devil
Lake Palanca is always so peaceful.
The tranquility of the place is not only because of the entire oval-shaped lake, surrounded by rolling hills, which isolates it from all hustle and bustle, but also because of a stone monument that stands at the entrance to the only road leading to it.
Stone tablet inscription: Longxing will be exclusive area, see the monument to turn back.
The granite stone monument more than three meters high stands there quietly, and the handwriting is clear. Behind the stele, there is an iron flower gate and a sentry booth. On the side of the road behind, there is a mecha apron, a small transport ship landing pad, and a row of barracks. Except for those who are determined to die, no one dares to step here.
Therefore, the Palanca freshwater lake in Bering Harbor is the only ecological area on the planet Mars that is located in the city but maintains its most primitive appearance.
Many people think that this is the base of the Longxing Society, but in fact, the Longxing Association will classify this freshwater lake with a total area of six square kilometers as a forbidden area, just because there is a villa on the lakeside here. And Su Kezhou likes to live here.
The villa is located on the western slope of the Palanca freshwater lake. It is built on three floors and has a total of 2,800 square meters. The simple and bright lines, the herringbone blue roof, and the white brick walls are hidden in the greenery, echoing the clear water of the lake and the undulating green mountains.
Descend the stone steps of the garden of the small building to the lake. On the pier paved with antiseptic wood is a wooden fishing gear storage warehouse, and in the berth next to the warehouse, a professional fishing yacht with beautiful lines ripples in the lake. From time to time, gray and white Mars red-billed freshwater gulls land on the yacht railings to rest.
Here, only the sound of the wind, the rustle of leaves and the crisp call of red-billed freshwater gulls can usually be heard. Besides. There can be no other sound. Because, Su Kezhou likes to be quiet.
Sunlight shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows into the study on the second floor.
Su Kezhou looked at the lake view outside the window while rubbing his fist-sized Yangxian purple clay pot with his hand.
Because of the perennial play, this antique purple clay pot has been raised to look like glaze non-glaze, like porcelain non-porcelain pulp. Warm and smooth. Just like Su Kezhou's typical Chackner old man's calm and introverted temperament.
After taking a sip of tea, the old man turned around, with a pair of slender eyes that were shallow and restrained, he glanced lightly at the commanders of the armed forces of the Longxing Society on the sofa, and said in a deep voice: "Let's talk about it"
"This is our best chance!" As soon as Su Kezhou's words fell, a middle-aged man who had long been unable to hold back immediately stood up and said loudly. \ The natural loud voice shook the few people next to each other and smiled bitterly.
"The coalition high command has given us clear orders, and the military headquarters also means the same. Mars Freeport. It must be in our hands! Now, the Northern Merchant Alliance is attacking the town of Pro, and its forces are being pinned. This is the best opportunity for me to go out in Longxing! The middle-aged man with a loud voice was so excited that his face turned red.
"Alright, alright." Su Kezhou smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Cage, I know that you have been holding back your anger during this time. If you want to fight, having land is an opportunity. Now we are discussing the tactical details of the current bandit army and the Northern Alliance in this battle. If we want to seize this opportunity, we must have an accurate judgment on the direction of the battle. β
Putting down the purple clay pot in his hand, Su Kezhou paced a few steps behind his back, walked to the huge electronic map screen on the wall, and said with his eyebrows: "Judging from the information we currently have." The town of Puluo, where the bandit army, is facing the siege of the Northern Alliance on six roads. Previously, it was already very surprising that they were able to annihilate a Seuss armored regiment in Pinchiling. Unexpectedly, they just received the news that they had completely annihilated the 6th and 7th armored battalions of the Northern Alliance's Blood Shadow Mecha Regiment at the Breslau Farm. β
Su Kezhou's words. There was an uproar. When I was ordered to come here for a meeting. The commanders also followed the battle and the deployment of troops on both sides. The line of attack is still being deliberated repeatedly, and the news that a newly formed armored regiment of the bandit army has defeated the regular armored forces of Seuss and annihilated a regiment.
In the eyes of the commanders, it was unbelievable that the bandit army was able to defeat the Souss armored regiment.
It's like a rabbit fighting a dog, and the first thing I get is that the dog was bitten by a rabbit, which is really unexpected by everyone. Therefore, in the battle of Pingqiling of the bandit army, everyone also repeatedly scrutinized, trying to find out the factors for their victory.
Unexpectedly, the first battle did not come to an accurate answer, and the bandit army actually annihilated two battalions of the Blood Shadow Mecha Regiment, the absolute main force of the Northern Alliance!
For a while, the commanders got up one after another, gathered behind Su Kezhou, and carefully checked the terrain of the battle area marked on the electronic map while discussing. ^^
Cage, who was impatient, was very thoughtful, and after only glancing at the map, he grasped the most critical part, and immediately asked: "President, which unit of the bandit army annihilated the Blood Shadow Armored Battalion?" β
"SM Three Regiments!" Su Kezhou said in a deep voice: "It's the one that defeated the Suss Armored Regiment!" β
"SM Third Regiment?!" In the room, there was a gasp of cold air.
This answer is both expected and unexpected by everyone. Judging from the monitoring intelligence of the Longxing Guild on Puluo Town, the armored combat force that the bandit army can form is originally only this one regiment!
This has been confirmed repeatedly. Whether it is the defensive deployment of the bandit army, or the material entry and exit of the base, and the production capacity, this information can be supported. In the report on the evaluation of the combat capability of the bandit army by the intelligence agency of the Longxing Society, it was pointed out that the bandit army, which completely relies on its own production of armed forces, will not have an additional battalion of military mecha that can form combat capability before the Northern Alliance launches an attack.
The number can be determined, but it cannot be determined, only the performance of this new type of mecha and the combat effectiveness of those units consisting of former civilian fighters. In the eyes of the commanders, don't say they don't understand this, I'm afraid that the so-called Lelei hero himself doesn't know very much either!
Training is one thing, fighting is another.
These were originally immersed in folk genre techniques. No matter from which point of view, there is still a huge gap between him and a real warrior.
They can fight in close quarters, but combat is not a lethal move! Those habitual showmanship techniques may look good in the ring, or they may be a deception of the opponent, but they can be on the battlefield. That's a huge waste of speed. Moreover, bloody group battles are not at all the same as singles rings that have nothing to do with life and death. Solo fighting techniques and personal heroism will only make you die faster on the battlefield!
The military is a highly specialized profession. ^^^^ if you can casually train a group of people to become professional soldiers, then what else do you need the army and military schools to do? If you train a few tactical moves, a militia that can shoot can crush a regular military force. How can there be a difference between special classes and ordinary classes? How can there be a gap between the ace army and the ordinary troops?
An army capable of defeating the enemy on the battlefield must have strict discipline, fine traditions, indomitable will, flexible and professional command, and reliable logistical support. It is necessary to have received professional military training all year round, and to be familiar with every weapon and equipment, offensive and defensive tactics, intelligence system, command system, and combat unit. The military qualities of the officers, the combat skills of the soldiers, and the trust and cooperation between each other must also be cultivated over a great deal of time
Those who had never been exposed to military training on a daily basis. Even a civilian fighter who has never used an energy weapon and often intrigues with each other can accomplish all of this in just one or two months?! You must know that even in the armies of various countries, such a little time is only enough for the recruits to walk in a good queue and stand in a good military posture! Even their physical training has not yet been fully developed. Not to mention the special training subjects that Mecha Warriors need!
But. The war report has turned all this upside down. That completely amateur bandit army. Actually crushed the regular armored forces of the Suss Empire! And, they now gave an even more shocking diagram of the battle - from Pinch Ridge south of the town of Puro to Breslau Farm one hundred and twenty-five kilometers from the Lorenzo River, they drew an arrow on the map that crossed the mountains, plains and hills, three hundred and fifty kilometers long, and defeated their second opponent!
What does it mean to travel 350 kilometers long distances in one night after a hard battle, and then quickly plunge into another battle to annihilate your opponent?
This not only means that this army's previous victories were not a trick, but also that they have strict discipline, traditions that are being cultivated, indomitable will, abundant physical strength, and strong combat effectiveness, and more importantly, it also means that this army has the most basic element of becoming an ace army -- faith!
Without the belief in victory and the belief in fighting for it, such a hastily formed army would never have been able to complete such a high-intensity battle!
It is ridiculous and incredible to say that such a ragtag army has been put together with faith, but the facts are in front of you. ^^
The commanders of the armed forces of the Longxing Society were silent, they could no longer use their luck as a statement of the combat effectiveness of the bandit army, how could they defeat the equally powerful enemy in two places more than 300 kilometers apart in one night? What kind of belief is it that supports them to run long distances, supports them to fight, makes them so eager, and everything is a mystery at the cost of their lives!
"Didn't the other two battalions of the Blood Shadow Mecha Regiment come over to support?" Cage pointed to the map and asked the question everyone wanted to ask. The deduction of the battle situation in Puluo Town began from the moment the intelligence arrived, and the position and relationship between the four Northern Alliance armored battalions had been repeatedly deduced many times.
"It's coming, it's coming." Su Kezhou stared at the map, slowly stretched out his hand, and drew a line on it. sneered: "However, from the beginning to the end, they were blocked by an armored battalion of the bandit army on the north side of this section of the road!" Until the end of the battle, the bandit army disengaged, and they did not manage to cross the land base! Now, the only thing they can do is collect the corpses of their companions! This time, even Cage was silent.
The Blood Shadow Mecha Regiment of the Northern Business Alliance has always been the target of the Longxing Society, and it can even be said that this is their number one enemy! They have been gathering all the intel about this unit since the beginning of the Genre War, and they know this enemy even better than they know their own team.
The Blood Shadow Mecha Regiment is the most elite of all the combat units in the Northern Alliance. One of the toughest.
It has nine armored battalions, all of which are specially selected from the Northern Alliance military organization. They have experienced battles, have rich combat skills and a fighting spirit that is not afraid of death, and absolutely obey orders. It can be said that they are the ace special forces of the Northern League.
They are fierce and confident, and despise all opponents.
In the large and small battles of the Northern Alliance that swept through Mars, the Blood Shadow Mecha Regiment. \ Participated in eleven of them. The opponents are all the absolute elites of the three major genres. No matter how stubborn the enemy is, he will not be able to resist their onslaught. The fighting spirit of the outlaw and the strong fighting power made them famous. Known as the soul of the Northern Alliance.!
But such an army that had been rigorously trained, had rich combat experience, and had just been equipped with the Seuss Energy weapon system was defeated by the SM Third Regiment of the bandit army!
Does this mean. That Leray fat man's whimsical pinched up militia. has become a more powerful army than the Blood Shadow Mecha Regiment?!
It's unbelievable!
Su Kezhou put his hands behind his back, stared at the electronic map, and asked, "Do you think that the Puluo Town bandit army has a chance to win this battle?" β
The officers fell into deep thought. They knew that this was the issue that Su Kezhou had asked them to come here to discuss. Although the Longxing Society has not participated in the genre war. However, the preparations that should have been done have already been done. In the past, it was not moved because once Longxing would make a move, it was likely to attract the Suss Empire to intervene in advance. And now, with the Republic of Chacna launching a large-scale counteroffensive in the Reske system, as the Mars battle enters the second phase of the Northern Alliance's dominance, the Longxing Society. There is no need to remain silent anymore.
It's a matter of time before you get your hands dirty. What needs to be considered is how to fight, how to use this battle of the Northern Alliance and the Puluo Town Bandit Army to complete the tactical actions of the Longxing Society, and lay the foundation for the later battles.
"***, who made you martyred?"
The fat man was swearing at the wreckage of a jet-black mecha, and at the same time, he hurriedly pulled out a large piece of high-compression solid energy from a relatively complete mecha next to him, and carefully cut it open. The last bit of space stuffed into the Ranger's energy box. That's when it stopped.
Raising his head, a dry cyan mecha was cleaning the battlefield in a similar way. Any mech that can find a power block. None of them will be spared. The mecha commanders, the mecha gods of war, who were originally quite proud and masterful, at this time, their faces were not as good as the villains who robbed the beggars of money, or because of the deformation of the mecha, it took a little more effort to open the energy box, and these villains were also angry and kicked and kicked.
Diathesis! The fat man scoffed.
Didn't one person kill seven or eight mechas, which are at most seven generations? Piloting ten generations of mechas, all known as the god of war, if you can't even do such a few people, then the fat man will have tears in his eyes when he thinks about it.
The cold wind was blowing, and his stripped stripes hung from his book in vain, whirling in the whips of the enemy, and pulling his throat ouch ouch
The fat man stared maliciously at the fifty or sixty surviving Northern Alliance mecha warriors who had crawled out of the wreckage of the mecha that had been gathered aside. Thinking about the treatment he might receive, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Dog, dare to abuse yourself like this, it's too bad! Do you need to start first?
"Colonel, the Super Sharp Knife Company has been assembled."
Wei saw the sound of the mountain, interrupting the fat man's evil thoughts.
Walking in front of the fat man, after this battle, he had completely turned himself into a member of the bandit army, and turned his head to look at the street with the fat man's flickering gaze: "What to do with these prisoners of war?" β
The fiery red star has completely jumped out of the horizon. The warm light, through the dilapidated buildings, sprinkled on the ruins, reflected the coldness of this desolate city. As far as the eye can see, the Champs-ΓlysΓ©es avenue is densely packed with burning mecha and scattered wreckage.
The POWs stood on the side of the street, their eyes scattered and somewhat unrecoiled. The 4th Armored Battalion of the Blood Shadow, the invincible and famous army that crisscrossed the planet Mars, was destroyed so simply?
The eyes of the prisoners of war were rolling with difficulty. Look at the fifty cyan mechs in front of you. They used to think that their team was invincible. But they didn't expect that one day, like the ragtag armies they had defeated, they would become the record of another army in the most humiliating way
The battle that had just taken place was replayed over and over again in the minds of the POWs that it was a scuffle. Under the command of the battalion commander Walker, they desperately pounced on the twenty cyan mechs. tried to drown these twenty cyan dots, but after overwhelming charges, these twenty mechs did not move like a reef, but the red mecha frenzy, was smashed by the waves, and retreated in embarrassment.
At that time, there was a hoarse voice reciting a poem. The Northern Alliance soldiers didn't understand the meaning of the poem, but they could hear the desolation and majesty of the poem, and they could feel those cyan mechas, in that roar, becoming more and more determined, more and more fanatical, and more and more fierce.
It's not a poem, it's a magic sound that inspires potential!
Their mechs are fast, ruthless, weird, precise, and deadly. The same move, when they've already knocked you out, you haven't even finished the controls.
Looks like that's scary enough, right?
No! There are even more terrifying things happening!
Northern Alliance mecha warriors are not afraid of any strong opponent. At the beginning, they always believed that no matter how fierce these twenty mechs were, they would be overwhelmed by them. However, this confidence eventually disappeared, and they could fight the strongest warriors, but they could not defeat the devil!
Now that I think about it, it was a clear nightmare!
During the battle, the Northern Alliance mecha warriors were horrified to find that every time a companion seized the opportunity to launch a fatal blow to these cyan mechas, there would always be a maddening mistake
Those cyan mechs will always shout "Long live Satan!" β
Then, the red mecha that launched a deadly attack either fell inexplicably, or lost its accuracy and strength. It seems that there is really a mysterious and terrifying power, guarding the fat man who is the leader of these cyan mechas, screaming the loudest and loudest, from beginning to end, he is constantly shouting "Long live Satan, long live Lord Satan, long live Lord Satan", as if he didn't want money.
That flattering voice made people get goosebumps all over their bodies. The Northern Alliance mecha warriors have no doubt about the intimacy between this fat man and Satan!
Once it was like this, twice it was like this, and all cyan mechs were like this! This mysterious and strange power completely destroyed the confidence of the Northern Alliance mecha warriors, as soon as they heard the words "Long live Satan", they could see the mistakes of their companions or find that their mechs were out of control
