Chapter 226: Investigation

The Terminator production base, located on the outskirts of Los Angeles, was unexpectedly located in Mount San Gabriel, and even the distance from the location where Shen Hao and the others destroyed the Skynet Air Mother last time was only within 100 kilometers.

When he first escaped from the mothership, Shen Hao never thought that in this continuous mountainous area, there would be a huge and terrifying Terminator base. And only a few days later, he and the others came back and launched a deadly counterattack here.

The off-road vehicle drove bumping on the mountain road, and the rugged mountain road shook people's bones to pieces. However, the people in the team did not feel a trace of displeasure, but all had a sense of happiness. Because luck really seems to be on their side, since leaving the city, they haven't encountered a Terminator or Skynet's reconnaissance plane again, I don't know if it's because they traveled faster than Skynet had previously judged, and they weren't surrounded by the outflanked Terminator army, or maybe the main control center on the Terminator production base didn't take their human resistance army into account at all.

However, whether it was Shen Hao or Sammy Dorne, the leader of the rebels, their faces did not relax at all. The eerie tranquility in front of you may be the last calm before the storm.

Four hours later. Standing on a cliff in Monte San Gabriel, you can see the large steel buildings of the canyon in the distance, stretching for kilometers, and the roar of the machine can be heard clearly even from a distance.

The architectural works from Ji Qì pay attention to neatness, symmetry, and have no architectural beauty at all, which looks like a big tofu block, but in terms of defense system, it is complete and tight.

The entire Terminator production base is more like a type of military base than a huge factory, and on its outermost periphery are tall Reapers, standing every hundred meters. There are also Terminators on the walls, and Hunters and Scout planes can occasionally be seen flying in and out of the sky.

Shen Hao kept looking at the far-infrared telescope for a while, and then put down the telescope: "No, the number of peripherals is no, but there are obviously a few defensive vacancies, it seems that the garrison here has been partially drawn for some reason." ”

"Maybe they were sent out to search for our whereabouts," Sammy Dorn also looked at us carefully with a telescope, but his tone was a little uncertain, "if that's the case, we'll ¥¥¥¥¥, m.□.c→omstyle_tt; It is necessary to launch a general attack before the return of those troops sent out, and to occupy the core of the base, so as to prevent other Skynet bases from increasing troops here in time."

"If it's yours, that's fine, but I always feel like something isn't right." Shen Hao's eyebrows tightened, and he replied slowly, in fact, Sammy Dorne's tone was quite hesitant, obviously he also felt abnormal, but he still couldn't grasp it.

"In our previous street battles, although we annihilated four Reapers, as well as a number of types of Terminators, in the eyes of Skynet, we are only about thirty humans equipped with light weapons, so how can it mobilize or even affect the defense of the base to encircle and suppress us in order to destroy us." Shen Hao touched his chin and thought about it, "What's more, we haven't even encountered a Skynet reconnaissance plane along the way, if it is to encircle and suppress us, it is impossible to deploy troops indiscriminately without even confirming our whereabouts, and let us swagger all the way to a place so close to the base." It doesn't look like a plan that a dull mechanical brain can come up with. ”

"Indeed, I have such doubts. Then there is another possibility" Sammy Dorn put down the telescope, his expression very entangled, "Skynet is a product of a program, and all reactions follow a fixed program. In order to mobilize the Terminator in charge of guarding the battle, there must be enough threat! In other words, it must be an attack that poses a threat to the security of the base before Skynet can be launched in a big way."

At this point, Sammy Dorn glanced at Shen Hao, and Shen Hao also took his words very cooperatively and said, "In other words, there is another armed force attacking this base now, and its attack intensity can already threaten the safety of the base!" ”

After saying this, the two fell silent together. This possibility is just speculation, and if that is the case, their best bet is to stay put. However, the fighters on the battlefield are fleeting, and if the two of them misjudge, then they will definitely face an ambush on all sides by a large group of Terminator troops. Compare the armored units composed of dozens of combat vehicles, no matter how much they hide, it is impossible to evade their prepared search.

"There is a forest at the foot of the mountain, so that the armored troops can hide there, and I will take my men to find a way to get closer and reconnoitre." After hesitating again and again, Shen Hao spoke first to break the silence. Shen Hao's heart was closer to his own conjecture.

And the reconnaissance plan he proposed, on the surface, seemed to take the initiative to take the greatest danger and open the way for these rebels, but in fact, Shen Hao had his own selfish intentions. Separated from the large force of the resistance, the four of them got together, and the goal was much more obvious, but the actual combat effectiveness was not weakened much by the detachment from the armored forces. On the contrary, they have been liberated the greatest degree of freedom, once something really happens, Shen Hao and the others can completely use the armored troops in the rear as cannon fodder to throw out to attract firepower, but evacuate with the help of the terrain.

Sammy Dorn hesitated for a moment, and involuntarily paced a few steps in place, but finally agreed with Shen Hao's suggestion. Although he had seen the combat effectiveness of Shen Hao and the others, he still believed that they who were hiding in the rear and had a type of armored force were much safer than Shen Hao and the four who ventured close to the base to carry out reconnaissance missions. Therefore, I am not afraid of what tricks Shen Hao and them play, assuming that the battle starts, and the four people who have penetrated into the enemy formation want to leave alive, they still need their own fire support.

Rearranging the equipment, Shen Hao took Su Yue and the Chen family brothers and sisters to quickly slide down the cliff under the admiring gaze of the rebels, and disappeared into the lush vegetation only twenty meters away.

As a veteran nightmare hunter, this kind of concealment and stealth technique is not difficult for everyone. Although Su Yue has not been a Nightmare Hunter for a long time, the identity and senses of the gunman, coupled with Chen Zihao's long and rigorous sniper training course, make her stealth ability not below Shen Hao at all.

It's getting dark.?? Touching all the way forward at the foot of the mountain, Shen Hao stopped two hundred meters away from the outer edge of the base and curled up behind a large rock. Chen Zihao, who was opening the road not far ahead, had already made a silent gesture to stop advancing, obviously this place had entered the garrison area of the base guard force.

?? Looking out from here, you can clearly see the figure of the Terminator in the distance, the pair of red electronic eyes like candles in the dark night, constantly shaking, particularly conspicuous in the hazy night. The night is no visual obstacle to the Terminator with a heat-sensing device.

This is a defensive blind spot they have observed before, apparently due to the lack of garrison strength, there are no Reaper within a few hundred meters of this area, only a few T600 Terminators with mechanical skeletons and M14 six-barreled aviation machine guns patrolling back and forth. However, the real threat is not to them, but to the silent reconnaissance planes that pass by from time to time.

Chen Zihao's left hand, hidden in the shade of the tree, was rapidly changing gestures, and the three people behind the big stone behind him were all experienced veterans, and they quickly deciphered the hidden messages from those gestures.

On the route they need to advance, a total of five reconnaissance planes will sweep through the patrol route, and three of them have a large patrol range, which can be evaded by taking advantage of the time difference. However, there are two reconnaissance planes whose trajectories are almost unavoidable, and if you want to move forward, you must find a way to knock them out.

Under Chen Zihao's beckoning, Su Yue, who also changed into a sniper rifle, lightly touched his side. Chen Zihao carefully observed for several minutes, and finally found two suitable shooting angles, but even with the muffler, the sound of the sniper rifle firing could still alarm the nearby terminators. So Shen Hao in the rear had another important task, he had to use his precise throwing skills to throw a magnetic mine into a depression eight hundred meters away, where a five-person Terminator patrol often passed by, as long as one of them was detonated, it would definitely attract the attention of most of the patrol team.

And if it's just a magnetic mine, it won't make the patrol care too much, after all, it's impossible to tell whether it's a mine triggered by the Terminator himself while walking or a mine thrown by humans. And most importantly, the sound of the mine explosion can perfectly mask the sniper shots of Chen Zihao and Su Yue. All in all, in the current environment, it can be regarded as a relatively perfect plan.

The special magnetic mine weighed less than three kilograms, and it was easy to throw it more than a kilometer under Shen Hao's brute force. At this time, everyone was in place, except for Chen Shuang, who was in charge of vigilance, everyone else held their breath.

Just when Shen Hao bent down and was about to make a throwing pose,?? In the distance, there was a faint sound of a motor at the bottom of the mountain, and after going around the wilderness, he felt in the other direction of the base. A moment later, gunshots rang out like firecrackers in the distance, and a faint glow of fire streaked across the sky. A squad of Terminators rushes out of the base, and the engagement ensues. Although it was not visible in the night, judging by the light of the fires that flew into the sky, the battle was short and fierce.

"Sure enough, there are other forces attacking here!" Shen Hao immediately withdrew his weapon and retracted behind the boulder, while Su Yue and Chen Zihao were obviously stunned, and the barrel of the sniper rifle wrapped around the camouflage belt was also quietly retracted.
