Chapter 39: Disappearance
Winter in the northern hemisphere of Canglang Star is autumn in Hanjing, the capital of Chacna.
Autumn was crisp and the pigeons were flying, and Sophie walked quickly through the square with golden maple leaves and into the TV station building. The lilting and rhythmic sound of high heels echoes through the hallway.
In the building, people come and go. It's work time, and everyone is in a hurry. Sophie's appearance made the whole building feel like a fresh wind. People who have lived in and out of life will always subconsciously look back at this woman with long wavy hair and swaying as she walks.
Thirty-two-year-old Sophie is ripe enough to make people salivate. The natural beauty and the clever femininity between Gu Pan and Gu Pan are all tempting in the eyes of any man.
However, those who are familiar with Sophie know that this celibate has always been unabashedly towards men. There is no such word as love in her dictionary. Aside from work, Sophie's only pastime is traveling. Over the years, she has traveled almost the entire map of the human world. She loves photography, and she can't wait to incorporate all the beauty of the world into the lens.
Sophie is not a TV station worker. Her official profession is the head of the foreign affairs group of the propaganda department of the Chakner military department. As the number one officer under the head of the propaganda department, she has been the mouthpiece of Chakner's military for many years, whether it is regional conflicts or the Supreme United Council of Mankind.
The reason why I came to the TV station this time was because the military department was preparing to jointly produce a war report program with the TV station.
Ignoring the astonishing gaze around her, Sophie only walked forward with a slight frown.
For her, at this time, she no longer has the heart to think about other things, and all her thoughts are occupied by the predicament of the current Chackner military department.
Since Chakner's declaration of war, the people have vigorously criticized Chakner's military department's strategy of evading and delaying. It is believed that Rysk has almost changed hands, and it has nothing to do with the weakness of the military. Chakner's fighting spirit in the past has been discarded.
blindly feared the enemy and cowardly the war, so that Suss had to inch in, Reske fought with cotton ends, and the people were miserable.
Sophie never argues with such accusations. Even when friends meet in private, she is always silent when she encounters such a topic.
In fact, the military department is very concerned about such a situation. is also wronged to the extreme.
Most of the reason why the Resque war is like this is because of the political strategy of the presidential palace. For this war that has engulfed all of humanity, the presidential palace does not want to take out all its forces at the beginning. The President thinks more about the international situation and the attitude of the Republic of Fiyan.
The intentions of the two superpowers are well known. If Chuckner goes all out at the beginning and fights to the end, it will be the two superpowers that will benefit from winning or losing. It seems that no one wants to suffer such a loss.
However, in private discussions, Sophie has a lot of criticism about the policies of the presidential palace.
In her view, war is war, not a business battle. In the face of the invaders, every inch of land should be fought for with all the strength of the country. A big politician should have the heart of a big statesman. Politics requires wisdom, but it is also necessary to have the courage to do whatever it takes.
If the Presidential Office spares no effort to support the military department, instead of being so constrained now, how could Canglangxing be attacked by Yuren Mikami, and how could Marshal Li Cunxin be so unknown as now?!
Thinking of the dilemma facing the Propaganda Department now. Sophie just had a headache.
The fall of Canglang Star has brought the people's doubts to a boiling point. At this time, there was nothing going on with the presidential palace, and those damned presidential security advisers were completely silent, and in their remarks in interviews with the media, they vaguely blamed all this on the military department's strategic mistakes. How they don't want to think about how Chacna's military mobilization could have been so slow if it weren't for them!
It has been more than 20 days since the fall of Canglang Star. Sophie was in the military department, and all she felt was repression. Colleagues are no longer in the mood to be angry and complain. The old marshal Li Cunxin is still uncertain. All of them were thinking about taking advantage of the disappearance of the security advisors who were pointing fingers. Mobilize and gather all the resources that can be combined to save all this.
The troops have been assembled, and the day of the counteroffensive is just around the corner. In this battle, the military bigwigs have put aside all concerns. The presidential palace, the security adviser came to the military department, and he could only run into a nose of dust.
Fight back, let the people see, the military department they have been accusing is still not the group that supports Chakner's backbone and cannot defeat or admit defeat!
The honor of the Chackner soldiers must be won back by themselves and by this battle!
Standing outside the office door of Felek, the famous TV presenter, Sophie took a deep breath.
The front-line reporting of the military department has always required extremely strict scrutiny. But this time, when the director told her with a serious face that she had conducted a joint live broadcast report with a civilian television station, she knew that this was a risky move by the military department.
The front is won, and the honor of the military department will be restored. The accusations of misunderstanding of the population will be washed away with blood and victories.
Once you lose......
Thinking of the poisonous tongue of the national talk show champion host Felek, and thinking of his ruthless and extremely sharp hosting style, Sophie's heart was full of palpitations.
After a long pause, she knocked softly on Felek's door.
This time, she will go to the front line with Felek, and everything that should come, let it come violently!
Six o'clock in the morning. The fat man looked at the time and stopped the mech in front of a small hill.
Turn on the forced ventilation device and light a cigarette. The mountains in front of me are silent, the mountains and forests are deep, and all that can be heard in the listener is the sound of ** running water and the occasional sound of insects.
But he knew that just seven kilometers to the southeast, two regiments of the 13th Panzer Division were quietly advancing north along the ravine. In the mountains, just two kilometers to the west, one of Jeppen's armored regiments was heading west. The two teams, like two long snakes in the grass, silently intersected in positions that were invisible to each other.
The "Fat ......" headset came from the sound of a lazy ass, and as soon as I heard it, I knew that this guy was sitting in his electronic mecha and pretending to be a mountain carving. Ever since it had struck ten hours earlier to disable Jeppen's Skynet, the Electro Corps in Chakna had enshrined it as a god, "11 o'clock in front of you, five hundred meters away." ”
The fat man didn't move. Radar has no effect in this mountainous area with complex terrain. However, the new microelectronic scanner is still able to catch some clues through the subtle reactions of electrons in the air. Combined with your own experience, you can make accurate judgments. The Jeppen reconnaissance mecha five hundred meters away, he had already discovered it. Waiting here is just waiting for the rabbit.
After the operation began, all ten Thunders, including him, had been released and scattered between the three echelons to snipe enemy scouts and block battlefield information.
Looking at the telescope, the Jeppen civet. Moving cautiously between the trees, the corners of the fat man's mouth tilted slightly to the left.
Losing Skynet, these Jeppen people are obviously out of order. Now they are like being in a room that was originally brightly lit, but suddenly the power went out.
They will soon be able to build a new local Skynet through electronic mechs and auxiliary equipment, although the function is not as good as the Chackner Skynet that has been in operation for hundreds of years, but it is enough to form an information advantage over the two wandering Chackner divisions. That was at least two days later, though. What is needed now is that they are not used to time at all!
In this shady scene, the ten mecha gods of war are the supreme kings!
The exterior of Thunder White changes with the environment. Now this thunder looks like a green snake in the jungle. Quietly wait for the arrival of the prey.
The cautious Jeppen civet is getting closer.
Suddenly, the wind blew the grass, the leaves shook suddenly, and after two dull crashes. The Jeppen civet has become a pile of scrap metal.
The fat man looked at the cockpit that had been beaten into a hole in the civet, and made sure that the Jeppen Mechanic was dead and could not die anymore, and with a pull of the joystick, the mecha silently moved through the jungle several times, over a small hill, down the sloping mountainside, and sideways towards another ridge in the distance. A moment later. The mecha was on the ridge and poked its head out.
At the foot of the mountain, the mighty Jeppen armored troops. It was hurrying towards the southeast. The winding procession has come to the end. After more than twenty crushing civets, the entire valley returned to tranquility.
Wow, a soft sound. Mecha. A real-time diagram of the progress of the other two teams appeared.
All three teams have safely completed the insertion.
Beiguan City has opened its doors. Now, it's time to take out the two watchdogs!
"Gone?!" Bobet's eyes, narrowed into a line, projecting a dangerous light: "How could it be gone?!" ”
The staff officers standing in front of him turned pale. They didn't even dare to speak out, they looked at each other, and they couldn't speak.
The screen in front of the console in Skynet, the command hall. It's already half dark, and technicians are trying to fix it. And on the electronic sandbox in front of Bobet, dozens of red arrows cut the entire northern mountainous area into pieces.
In the center of these red arrows, three clusters of blue light distributed in different directions were shining mechanically - the signs of three mountain towns that had suddenly been attacked at the same time a few hours earlier. In this attack, Chacner's main force poured out, and the Jeppen troops stationed in three small towns suffered a devastating blow.
Clearly, the strategy of provoking the Chakner people worked. The Chakners have been hiding in the mountains. Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore. They went out in all directions. I just want to launch a-for-tat retaliation.
Bobet was not afraid of the Chacna's revenge. In fact, that's the ultimate goal of everything he did.
The almost simultaneous attack of three small towns in different directions made it a little confusing to know which way Chackner's main force was, but it was just a matter of spending more time and mobilizing some troops. The important thing is that the Chucknas have shown their fox tails, and as hunters, all they need now is to catch them and annihilate them!
Everything, originally according to plan.
But who knows, just when the surrounding troops rushed to the battle area, the Skynet system was inexplicably attacked. The entire planet's communications command and intelligence are paralyzed. What was even more unexpected was that the troops who rushed to the combat area sent back, and it was the news that the Chakner people had left with one blow and disappeared into the vast mountains again.
And the time Bobet received the report was already five hours after the Chakner attack was launched, how could he not be annoyed.
"Your Royal Highness," Claude Lear, commander of the 2nd Armored Division directly under the Supervision Department, who was silent on the side, stepped forward, "I think the enemy has flown into the area south of Mount Teklal with a false shot?!" You see, several passes in the Teklal Mountains are more than 4,000 people above sea level, which is the gap in the siege of our army. ”
Bobet looked at the electronic sandbox and thought for a long time. Nodding, acknowledging Reardon's judgment.
Under the siege of twenty or thirty divisions, it is impossible for two Chakner divisions, which are like lost dogs, to stir up any storms. The only thing they can do now is flee. And south of the Teklar Mountains, it's an ideal place to escape. Because there are too many places that need to be contained, the pass above 4,000 meters above sea level is exactly where the defense is negligent.
The mountainous terrain on the electronic sand table also seems to confirm this. The garrisons of the three small towns that were attacked, all near the Teklal Pass, had a large number of Jeppen troops to the north, east and west, except for the Chakna who were repulsed in one blow and crossed the Teklal Mountains to the south and west. There is no other way out!
"Your Royal Highness, I think, will the enemy come to our Beiguan City?" A major staff officer stared at the electronic sand table for a long time, and plucked up his courage.
The Major's opinion was immediately met with a sneer from Reardon; "Inserted into Beiguan City? The Chuckners unless they collectively go crazy...... Beiguan City is stationed two divisions of the Royal First Guard of our Supervision Department. In the southern mountainous area of the periphery, there are also two divisions in a situation of encirclement, and if they come in, they are completely looking for death! I wish they did. ”
The major simply closed his mouth. As an ordinary staff officer, he really didn't have the courage to argue with the gang of Inspectors of the Inspectorate that Bobet received. Moreover, he himself admitted that his ideas were too crazy and did not have much basis to support.
"Order the troops, speed up the march. Conduct a concentrated search towards the Teklar Mountains. Bobet's gaze swept over the course of the major's mouth, and then left it behind: "Before sunset, they must be found!" ”
