Chapter 137: Black Cauldron, I'll Send You to Death
"It seems that the target is very spicy~!"
"Sir, the target is on the bank of a broken river, there is no cover on all sides, and it may not be easy to attack."
"Hmm~! Do you have any comments? ”
Olive looked around at the captains around her.
"Sir, according to the normal attack, we will start with a round of artillery bombardment and missile fire, and then we will launch a charge after blowing them to pieces."
“…… Anything else? ”
"Sir, we can plug up the river and blow it up and drown them with the water."
“…… Doesn't it mean that the river has been cut off? ”
"Uh...... Oh! ”
Olive rubbed her aching temples.
"Sir, we can dig a hole in the ground and pile up a lot of explosives under the target."
“…… How to dig? ”
"Dig with a mech."
"How far can you dig in a day?"
"This ...... Didn't try it......"
"Do you have explosives?"
“…… Wood has ......"
Olive rubbed her temples again.
"How far are we from our destination?"
“…… There are still 300 kilometers in a straight line, sir. ”
“…… 500 mechs are divided into two waves, 250 waves, bah bah bah~! The 240 in front and the 260 in the back, with an interval of 5 kilometers in between, are you seeing? ”
"Understood!"
"Yes! Sir~. ”
"Let's go~!!"
……
"Why haven't those bastards from Division 22 arrived yet?"
"Report to Colonel, the team of the 22nd Division is still more than 270 kilometers away from us in a straight line."
"Colonel, are they scared? Hey. ”
“…… Are our shells and missiles ready? ”
"It's ready!"
"Hmmm......"
Bunnathan pondered for a moment.
"How long will it take them to get to their intended location?"
“…… Report to the colonel, it will take about 3 to 4 hours. ”
"It was dark at that time~! Did they come to eat leftovers? ”
Lieutenant Colonel Adoni, the deputy captain, said in a strange manner.
"But the attack time is 0:00 in the morning, we can't attack in advance! Captain. ”
The other vice-captain, Major Fried, calmly persuaded.
"Fried, the people of the 22nd Division have been crippled. Even if we wait for them, they may not arrive until after the allotted time, and it is likely that they are deliberately trying to make us charge first. ”
"There are still 6 hours left, don't jump to conclusions, Lieutenant Colonel!"
"Cut~! If you're afraid, say it. Colonel, if you wait until dark, it will be too late! Attacking in the dark isn't what we're good at, and I think we should attack right away, blast it to the ground, and then rush up and get to know them. ”
“…… Do you feel sure? ”
"100% sure! Didn't intelligence say that the target had only a small amount of combat power? This is presumably just a strategic reserve for the Resistance. ”
"Aduni! Don't talk nonsense to interfere with the colonel's decision, if the rebels are so stupid, how can the 22nd Division base be broken so easily? ”
"They're stupid too! A base of 70,000 people can't even defeat a 30,000-strong rebel army, isn't it a fool? ”
"You ......"
"Enough~!!"
“……”
“……”
“…… Send someone to find out...... Then inform the fighters that they are ready! ”
"Understood! Captain. ”
Lieutenant Colonel Adoni excitedly accepted the order and turned off the video window.
"Colonel ......"
"Major Fried, I know what you're trying to say. But it is true that sometimes the plan does not change quickly, so you should prepare for it! ”
"Colonel~!"
Fried frowned and tried to persuade again.
"Alright, so be it! 500 more Thor 3 actually doesn't have much combat power increase, go for it! ”
“…… Be! ”
……
"Bang, bang, bang......"
240 Thor 3 finally came to the designated place, it is a deep river bank, the riverbed is very wide, about 3 kilometers, fortunately it is a river that has been cut off, otherwise for Thor 3, it will only swim over.
Olive pretended to measure the target built on the other side of the river on the other side, but in fact, she had already "swept it" dozens of kilometers away. At that time, she was "shocked", (okay!) I'm a good ...... Is this a bunker! Is this Temad a fortress?!
At the right angle of the river bank on the opposite bank, a large hole more than 100 meters high and 300 meters wide seems to have been hollowed out, and the hole is inlaid with a military building like a castle. It is also surrounded by three layers of high and thick walls, and when you look at it, it is a city at all!
Roll your wooden Joshur, roll your wooden military headquarters, where does this Teyard look like a bunker!? If you really have an opinion about me, you can just let me go~!
"Sir, what are we doing now? Notify the people of the second division? ”
Olive was silent for a moment, she "saw" that the people of Division 2 seemed to be ready to make a move, but it was still a few hours before the planned time!
"Don't act rashly yet, I feel something is wrong there."
Olive swept the entire rebel fortress several times, and there were only a few mechs and missiles deployed inside, which were still remotely controlled by computers and wiring as before, which seemed to be very similar to the super cloudburst not long ago.
Olive couldn't help but shudder, she continued to "scan" the fortress, and finally she found rows of dense high explosives 30 meters below the fortress wall.
Not only the interior of the fortress and the foot of the building, but also the crevices in the rock at the top of the building contain a large amount of high explosives. Luckily, these were normal high explosives, and if they were cloudbursts, Olive would have turned around and fled.
But it's one thing to find out, and it's another thing to express it, did she go and say to the people in the second division,
"Don't fight! I found a lot of hidden explosives with special features? ”
It's going to be considered crazy, right? Ten thousand steps back and said, even if she bitterly said to stop the attack, then what? She was sent to the lab for a slicing study?
Olive shuddered to think about it, and Olive couldn't help but shudder. Also, forget it! Anyway, it's not my soldier, and it's better to die than to die...... How could such a beautiful poem come to my mind!? ~!
"All the mechs in the rear go to the hillside 30 kilometers from your flanks and prepare a defensive offensive."
"Yes! Sir. ”
“…… Harris and Johnson stayed, and the rest of the fighters at the front immediately retreated to the marked spot. Hurry up, hurry up~!! ”
"Yes! Sir. ”
"Understood~!"
“……”
"Captain, I also have an ominous premonition......
Olive didn't even want to pay attention to the second thing, and at that moment, a friendly conversation request popped up on her center monitor.
"Major Olive Live, I'm Colonel Bunnaber, the Operational Commander of the 2nd Division. Please explain why you "so hard" came to the designated place, and why did you flee now? ”
“………… I have an ominous premonition......"
If you say this, labor and management still say it~!
“……”
"We are prepared not to start the attack at the time specified in the plan, but to launch the attack in 15 minutes."
"Colonel, trust me! I'm not cowardly, really, really like something isn't right there! ”
“……”
"Our plan of attack remains the same, Major, the battle is not a matter of feeling, and I hope you will work together when the time comes...... Toot ......"
The other party closed the video window, Olive was silent, and the three Thor 3s stood quietly on the bank of the river. On the riverbed, the ground forces of the 2nd Division began to drag a thick layer of sand and dust towards the fortress on the opposite bank......
