Chapter 369: Supplies from the Sky

Sirius, the city of Union that had been held out for years under the onslaught of the unknown, was now a little depressed, full of ruined walls, weeds and dead trees, and the streets were sparsely populated by soldiers, who patrolled in small ships.

It is the front line against the unknown, and thanks to the local immigrants who have no desire to leave their homeland, and the continued support from several surrounding star systems, Union City is now a new regional war zone.

Xue Ronghua walked into the stronghold where his tactical squadron was lurking, and he had just experienced a clash filled with screaming and moaning soldiers, some of whom had broken legs, some of whose hands had disappeared, and some of whom had simply had a large hole in their bodies pierced.

The shortage of medical resources forced everyone to find a way to solve the problem of treatment on their own, so sometimes they even had to send their comrades into the nutrition tank themselves.

Xue Ronghua's adjutant walked up, "In the clash the day before yesterday, we sacrificed 12 soldiers, paid the price of 25 serious injuries, and defeated more than 200 unknowns. ”

"The soldiers are brave," the young man frowned, but he knew that the news from the command in the rear of Union City was not optimistic, "Due to the remote location of Sirius, the nearest manned star system is 3.5 light-years away, and the planned support had to be postponed for half a month after an accident. ”

"Captain!" The adjutant muttered in a low voice: "In addition to maintaining the synthetic food production line for daily life, the water purification circulation device and the portable fission energy power station, the rest of the materials including weapons and equipment, activation agents and other materials are almost gone, and if we don't retreat to the rear, we can't hold on any longer." ”

"I know this..."Xue Ronghua still said quietly: "However, we still have to persevere, and don't forget the trauma caused to us by the unknown..."

Xue Ronghua still remembered the scene when the Unknown Legion first landed a few years ago, and they were so weak in the face of a terrible enemy. so powerless that thousands of people died in a short period of time.

However, no one left, and since they chose to settle in this remote place, it shows that the people are willing to live and work in peace and contentment as their homeland, so even death will not force them to leave easily.

The Union City of Sirius. It was also the presence of such a group of forces of resolute resistance that the unknown offensive was contained.

As people come into contact with the unknown and accumulate more experience, they realize that the unknown described by the East Galaxy Company is indeed terrifying, and it has not yet reached the point where they have no power to fight back.

As a result, the offensive and defensive situation in the Sirius theater stabilized, and they desperately delayed the unknown legions, even if millions of unknown reinforcements continued to arrive in the rear. None of them shredded this fragile layer of defense.

Therefore, no matter when and where, they will definitely not easily say the word retreat, otherwise, they will not have the face to face their dead compatriots and comrades-in-arms.

Xue Ronghua unfolded the digital battlefield, aiming at the hundreds of strongholds in this area, thinking about what they were going to do, "Why don't we find a way to go to this place?" I heard that this is the place where the 141st tactical squadron was destroyed. It may be possible to recover a considerable amount of war material. ”

But he knows the legend of the 141 tactical squadron, and he knows where the ace troops can be destroyed in an instant. It represents extremely terrifying and unknown lurks, such as the Tentacle Type III and the Centurs, who have been very vicious in the past.

While he was struggling with what to choose, the Personal Assistance Module sent out a communication request, and he saw that the communicator was his boss, Captain Solid of the 666 Tactical Brigade. Hurriedly chose to connect.

"Lieutenant Xue, I heard that the supplies will have to arrive half a month late, can your team still hold on?"

Xue Ronghua replied: "Maybe we will face many more challenges than before, please believe that we will hold on to this place." ”

"Very good!" Solid applauded, "What I'm able to tell you now is... The war materiel that was originally planned will still arrive as scheduled for some reason. But because the fleet escorting these supplies has other things to do, and we can't control the air, the supplies will be done by airdrop. ”

"Understood!" Xue Ronghua's heart was finally no longer gloomy, and after being replenished, they would definitely be able to hold on to this area, and even drive away the unknown in this area.

"I'm confident... In addition, this batch of war materials is supported by the East Galaxy Company, and in terms of quality alone, it is much better than the free lighthouse goods and sunrise goods we got before, and there are even a lot of strategic weapons, you must take good care of them, and then troops will come to receive them. In addition, you who are responsible for receiving the supplies will be given permission by the command to use them to ensure their safety, so please pay attention to the official order later. ”

Xue Ronghua suddenly understood the meaning of the chief's words, he glanced at the map, after receiving the order, some new intelligence information had appeared on it, and he even saw the countdown of the materials that were falling.

He gathered everyone, leaving 56 soldiers who were fighting at work, and when they heard that they were going to receive supplies, everyone said they wanted to go.

"The unknown doesn't necessarily come to hit our lair!"

Many people laughed after hearing this.

Xue Ronghua said in a positive voice: "Then, everyone will act with me, there is not much time, these are East Galaxy goods, everyone knows, how good the quality of the guns and unmanned units produced by the East Galaxy Company is, what I can guarantee is that everyone involved in the operation can be assigned a set of weapons and equipment." ”

Suddenly, the morale of the people below was greatly boosted, and even the soldiers with lame legs and broken hands expressed their willingness to accept them, and having a good set of weapons and equipment can be said to have given them another life, and who would dare to despise such an opportunity.

The entire tactical squadron weaved through the ruins of the city, targeting Times Square, 1.2 kilometers away, where location data showed that supplies would land.

At this moment, in the sky, a Changyang-class spacecraft happened to come to orbital space, and the emblem on the spacecraft and the identification signal provided clearly showed that they were the spacecraft confirmed by the East Galaxy Company at the conference of the nations and was responsible for transporting war materials.

However, when they tried to land, they found that the sky above the planet was not quiet, and the dense unknown was like sleeping bats, and they had just broken in and suddenly surprised them, making it difficult for them to land safely, and for another special reason, they might have to change their goals.

They decided to complete the transportation of war materials by airdrop.

A small cargo hold that was quickly packed and packed by unmanned units, each cargo hold was loaded with a dazzling array of materials, some were weapons and equipment, some were unmanned units, some were medicines, and some were military industrial equipment, according to the smallest cargo hold load of 10 tons, there were as many as 10,000, and they were sprinkled one after another.

The cargo hold maintains a steady descent speed under the action of gravity traction and parachutes, because they are too many and too small, even if it is an unknown conscious interception, there will not be much loss, at most 15 minutes, the cargo will land smoothly in the predetermined position to wait for the defenders of Union City to receive it.
