In the command center. There are a variety of sounds, such as footsteps, whispering, system electronic sounds, and the hum of Panasonic's brain cooler. The atmosphere, but still silent.

The staff officers of the Reske Front were working nervously in front of the Skynet console.

Skynet now. It's just an octopus that has lost most of its tentacles. Although the network in Phoenix is quite sound, once it touches the front line, it is not so smart. Command and communication are relatively smooth, but the gathering of intelligence is surprisingly slow. After all, the efficiency of information transmitted by a small number of manual active communication is far from that of information automatically collected by the Skynet terminal system.

Skynet is always working in a cycle of repairing, being destroyed, repairing, and being destroyed again. This is a common problem in long wars. This will always happen as long as the two sides are evenly matched for a certain period of time. Without Skynet, the war seems to have returned to antiquity all at once.

The phone kept ringing. In the communication channel, it was also noisy. The staff officers listened as they flew the information. It's like a home without a camera, and you can only paint the scenery in front of you into a giant oil painting, and use a brush to add oil paint on a blank canvas to outline the outline of the whole painting.

And now the contours of the battle situation are that the Thirty-third Army has left the Sherlocks and is marching southward. A group of warplanes has also arrived over the town of Franço. Heard. The 1st Armored Division of the bandit army arrived at Banyunling and was engaged with the enemy, while their 2nd Armored Division seemed to be still, the specific situation was not clear.

This kind of simple sketching that relies on communication information is really torture.

Where did the 33rd Army arrive, and could it arrive within the allotted time? How about the battles of the fighter clusters, and what about the losses? Where are the enemy's follow-up troops and how many troops are there? After the Second Armored Division of the bandit army in Banyunling was put into battle, could it stop the enemy's attack, the oil painting was an oil painting after all, and the forest was dense when it was seen from a distance. The characters are vivid, and it seems that the world is right in front of you. But when I really looked closer, it was just a clump of condensed colors. I can't see anything clearly.

Pierre walked up and down the console with his hands behind his back. Chen Fengxi stood in front of the Skynet screen and pondered, his fingers subconsciously tapping lightly on the alloy table of the console. Now, the only thing they can do seems to be just waiting.

The gaze of the two. From time to time, it will focus on the elegant body in front of the electronic sand table.

Margaret, Hastings's granddaughter, the well-known successor of the Feiyang military, is wearing a blue bandit uniform at the moment, and her position is only one of several deputy chiefs of general staff of the bandit army.

This fact, while making people feel surprised, also makes people feel a little bit about the bandits.

Especially Pierre. If it weren't for Margaret standing behind the fat man, if it weren't for the fact that she didn't question the fat man all along, I'm afraid to kill him, he wouldn't have agreed to this plan.

The plan was agreed, and the implementation began, but what is the result to be waited?

"Sir!"

Suddenly, the communications officer shouted.

"What's the matter?" Chen Fengxi, who was closest to the communications officer, stepped over in a few steps.

"I, the commander of the 1st Regiment of the Armored Division, report that the advance of the attacking enemy on the east-west intercity highway in the town of Frenso has retreated eastward within fifteen minutes of the bandit army entering the battle! According to preliminary estimates, within half an hour, our troops annihilated five enemy armored battalions and one self-propelled artillery battalion. Presently. The bandits have moved six kilometers of defensive line. ”

What the? All couldn't believe their ears.

One cyan mech after another, stepping on thick fallen leaves, ran through the dimly lit and damp jungle, ran down the hillside, and raced in a line on the muddy dirt road. The muddy water splashed everywhere, and the heavy steel mechanical feet stepped on a messy footprint in the thin mud.

"Hurry!" With a cold face, Stewart stood on the open command platform of the command mech.

Amid the sound of crackling muddy water, mechs rushed by, the front of the long queue. We have reached the hill ahead.

"What? Not happy that you didn't catch the adjudicator? Robert stood beside Stewart and looked at the tall former LTTE commander with a smile.

Stewart grinned, "I just made a bet with Rashid's short man to see who would run into the adjudicator first, and in less than three minutes, the order came." , I can't get used to the smug face of the short man. ”

"Shihe." Robert smiled and shook his head, he found that after following the fat man for a long time, neither Stuart nor Rashid, nor even their soldiers, did not take the war seriously. The indifferent nature of the Leray people is vividly reflected in them.

Turning his head to look at the running mecha queue, for a long time, Robert sighed: "A year ago, I never dreamed that I would command such a team. The most advanced mecha, the best mecha warrior, the exhausted Lelei Army, seems to have suddenly made a fortune. ”

"General, you forgot that we haven't changed to a new mech yet." Stewart smiled: "After this battle, give me a 12th generation mecha, and I can fight all the way to Sidon from here!" ”

"The capital of the Binarte Empire is not considered for the time being" Robert patted Stewart lightly on the shoulder: "Let's think about how to implement General Tian's battle plan first." You know, we're pioneers. ”

"General, you say. Would the Front command be surprised if they knew that our real mission was not to resist the attack of the Cialts on the west side of the town of Frenso, but to go straight forward and make a large detour? Stewart raised an eyebrow.

"To tell you the truth," said Robert, "I was also surprised by General Tian's appetite. ”

He looked at the mountains in the distance. His hand subconsciously patted the railing of the command mecha platform, remembering what the fat man said on the communication screen half an hour ago, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In fact, as early as when he saw the combat situation map in the command hall, the fat man had already seen the problems faced by the Filipino coalition forces now.

The Phoenix West Line is more than 2,000 kilometers long. There could not have been a whole row of impregnable fortifications, there could be no continuous trenches. To resist the attack of Western Covenant, it was necessary to rely on a sharp detachment of troops scattered on the front line; To compete for each town, one strategic one after another. With tug-of-war, interspersed with encirclement, rapid attack, and on-the-spot defense, this complex and broad defense line is constructed.

Such a line of defense. There is only one basis for formation, and that is the force!

Now, the Allied forces of the Filipino coalition have concentrated fifty-seven divisions on the front. In addition, Chen Fengxi's remaining troops on hand plus the mixed division formed by temporarily containing the front-line stragglers were only two.

And the opponent, the northern cluster of Belif alone, had the strength of almost fifty divisions. The total strength of the two theaters of war in the north and south was 1.5 times that of the coalition forces of the Filipino Alliance. What's more, behind the Belif cluster in the north and Antoniscu in the south, there is also an army bear Rosenberg with at least sixty divisions in his hands!

Therefore, when Sillo, with three armored divisions and a valuable adjudicator company as arrows, suddenly launched an attack on the town of Frenso and opened the passage, in addition to being careful of Sillo's breakthrough, it was necessary to worry more about their heavy assault on the other defensive lines. If Chen Fengxi draws too many troops into the town of Franço, then once Xiyue suddenly sends heavy troops to attack the other defenses

All along, Lei Fengxing has been in the army. The strategy adopted is a frontal defense. Judging from the comparison of forces between the two sides and the situation of the battle, this is not wrong. But being right doesn't mean winning. In fact, the coalition forces are already difficult to ride tigers, and their forces are constantly being consumed in this whirlpool, and if this continues, it is only a matter of time before the western front of Phoenix City collapses.

Therefore, it was necessary to launch a campaign to annihilate the living forces of the enemy in large numbers and give Siyo a hard blow.

Chen Fengxi thought that the fat man threw in the two armored divisions just to eat the three enemy divisions in Frenso Town, knock out one of the opponent's adjudicator companies, make Xiyo feel pain, and retract their fists hidden behind. It is a pity that he did not understand the combat effectiveness of the 1st and 2nd armored divisions of the bandit army. Also underestimated the appetite of the fat man.

If it really only needs to eat the opponent's three armored divisions, the first division of the bandit army can end the battle before the enemy's reinforcements arrive. To know. Facset's 31st Army was much stronger than them in terms of combat effectiveness. Both the quality of personnel and equipment are far from being comparable to those of these three Western Armored Divisions. Then. The bandit army was still stunned, and he couldn't kill the killer. When you get here, you don't have anything to worry about.

Such two divisions. Serving the three ordinary armored divisions of the Western Covenant, they said that the elegant point is the pearl bullet bird. Niu Ding cooks chicken, to put it vulgarly, it is Godzilla strong * rape beautiful sheep and sheep.

However, the fat man wants to do a big job, but he can't say it explicitly. As soon as he said it, I am afraid that Chen Fengxi and Pierre will be scared away directly. For these two commanders who have always stood firm in Resque, seeking stability is more important than anything else. Even if it was the plan to encircle and annihilate the three armored divisions in the town of Franço, they thought about it again and again. Not to mention the combat profits that are several times greater than this.

So, the fat man took advantage of the town of Frenso and transferred the 33rd Army. Then take the opportunity to take command of all the teams in the vicinity of the town of Franço. Drag the Leifeng Star Front into his plan. When the heavy troops that have been hidden in the West are dispatched, he will lead these troops directly into the depths and make a wide detour. Cut off the enemy's retreat!

As long as the detour is successful, even if Chen Fengxi doesn't want to fight, it won't work. The meat brought to his mouth, he will not only eat, but also bite harder than anyone else!

"General Robert. The vanguard touched the Chackner Ran Panzer Division. Their division commander asks you to come over. "Command the mech. The report of a combat staff officer interrupted Robert's musings.

"Let's go." Robert turned around first and got into the cabin.

Commanding the mecha to quickly run along the muddy mountain road, ten minutes later, appeared in the jungle ahead of the makeshift camp and criss-crossed traffic trenches, telling Robert that the location of the division had arrived.

The mech stopped in front of a large tree that needed to be surrounded by five people, and Robert and Stewart stepped out of the cabin and looked around.

The vanguard of the 2nd Panzer Division of the bandit army had stopped and was gathering in the woodland. Sunlight penetrated the cracks in the canopy and spilled into the primeval jungle, dappled with it. A thin mist rises and swirls in a slanted pillar of light. The dead leaves on the ground and the moss on the rocks at the roots of the trees make the place look damp and stale.

Not far away, a trench zigzagged deep into the jungle. Camouflage nets hung from the trunks, and several anti-detection jammers. Staggered arrangement. Dozens of scarred mechs crouched or stood, surrounded by empty boxes of ammo, energy or parts.

Several Chakner mechanics covered in oil are busy repairing mechs. In an unfolded cooking mech next to them. More than a dozen sweaty cooks were making lunch. A squad of soldiers on patrol. Walk past the edge of the trenches. A soldier in the trench poked his head out and said something to the patrol captain.

The farther you look, the more Chakner soldiers there are. The soldiers, dressed in dirty uniforms that could not be distinguished, sat together, some in meetings, some napping. Some are taking care of their guns, while others are just in a bored daze.

After seeing the bandits, most of the people here turned their eyes to it. The eyes were full of curiosity.

"General, please come here." A waiting Lieutenant Colonel Chuckner gestured sideways.

Robert and Stewart followed the lieutenant colonel and the sentry beside him as they walked toward the trench. The net went to the edge of the trench. They saw several officers climbing up the gentle slope on one side of the trench.

"General Robert!" A major general Chakner, who was at the forefront, stretched out his hand: "I am Benaglio, the commander of the Chakner Armored Division. Welcome to this devil's area. ”

"Hello." Robert reached out and shook Benaglio tightly, smiling, "I believe the command has told you what we're here for." ”

"Honestly, that's not a good idea." The cheerful Benaglio shook hands with Stewart again, and introduced Pang Bei, the commander of the First Division of the Sixth Army of the Eighteenth Army of Chakner, beside him, lifted his military hat and scratched his short yellow-brown hair, shrugged his shoulders and said: "The 2nd Division of Jeppon State on the opposite side is not so easy to deal with." ”

"Oh?" Robert and Stuart looked at each other, "Can you tell us about it?" ”

"That's a bunch of well-armed bastards." Benaglio did not have the slightest restraint when they met for the first time, and scolded: "They are equipped with a large number of Jepeng ninth-generation civet mechas, and there are also a few high-level mecha warriors piloting tenth-generation, Anubis mechas. This kind of mecha was rare in the past, but this time it was in Jeppen's reinforcements. There are a lot of such mechas. It is estimated that their son of a bitch emperor took out the coffin to make a mecha and smoked? ”

Bernario outspoken. He quickly won the favor of Robert and Stewart, and took the cigarette from Benaglio. Robert asked, "How are they fighting, I heard that you have been fighting them for a long time." ”

"I suffered a little loss when I met them in the early days, and the logistics couldn't keep up at that time," Benaglio said: "Later, our second batch of troops came up and opened up the interstellar channel, and the logistics materials were replenished, and the other party also increased its troops." Now we're here in a stalemate with them, fighting every day. It's not a strategic location. They all cover the flanks of their own troops, and they don't attack fiercely. ”

As he spoke, Benaglio reached out and took a document from a staff officer beside him and handed it to Robert: "After almost a month, their casualty rate is about thirty percent. However, according to the intelligence of our scouts, they have replenished the troops. It should be Jie Zhang, the two armored regiments of the Ah Division. ”

Robert flipped through the papers. The information recorded on the electronic folder is very detailed, including the scope of the opponent's station, the rules of action on weekdays, the habits and tactics during combat, and the extended range of vigilance, the determination of the fire suppression point during previous encounters, the intensity of electronic attacks, and so on.

"Can you give me a copy of this?" Robert raised the electronic folder in his hand.

"Absolutely." Benaglio nodded. Immediately, he asked, somewhat uncertainly, "Are you really planning to attack them?" ”

"That's right." Robert smiled slightly.

"When?" Benaglio's eyes widened, and he looked over Robert's shoulder at the bandit mechs that were gathering in the distance.

Robert looked at the time and said lightly, "Now!" ”。 After writing it, add up the discarded words thrown at the back, close to eight thousand. Actually, I worked hard. Isn't it a nourish for a few monthly passes? ）
