Chapter 495: First Intervention
Shen Chao sent a new 501 squad, 5 represents the fifth brigade to which it belongs, and 01 is naturally the team code. After receiving a large number of new members, the expedition adjusted its staffing system, no longer numbering teams according to seniority and achievements, but adjusting their staffing according to their functionality.
Now, the number of backbone veterans in each brigade is basically the same, and the first brigade has become a private guard in the practical sense of the deep and super, and the main force for long-range reconnaissance, which is why the 102 squad now appears by Shen Chao's side so often or receives direct orders from him.
Team 501 is in a different situation, because all the members of Team 501 are almost all soldiers, and there are two experienced abilities, so their main focus is not reconnaissance, but sabotage, harassment, confrontation, and decapitation.
Shen Chao's purpose in sending them here was very simple, that is, under the guidance of Team 102, he tried to capture a group of members of the Star Covenant infiltration team, especially a few Berserker-level elites. The individual weapons and shields they are equipped with should be the most advanced in the Covenant.
The capture of these weapons and equipment will allow the expedition team to have a more accurate understanding of the Covenant's technical level, and at the same time provide a new challenge for the research team responsible for reverse engineering. The vehicle used by Team 501 to arrive was the same as Team 102, a new type of shuttle.
They were now in ambush at a waypoint preparing to ambush the passing Covenant troops, and one of the firefighters had already pulled out a large killing weapon, the M-920 Cain Cannon, ready to give the enemy a head-on attack. Both Abilities also have their ultimate, ready to end the upcoming battle in the shortest possible time and achieve the goal of clearing the field quickly.
But just as they were about to make a move, there was a little accident at the scene, a Covenant troop carrier suddenly flew over their intended engagement area and dropped a new batch of Covenant troops, the total number of which reached almost a hundred. And a third of them are elites.
"This is the 501 commander, 102 squad please reply." The commander of Team 501 opened the communication and decided to communicate with his colleagues in charge of the nanny Noble team, because although he was sure that his team could take out the large number of Covenant infantry in front of him, he did not have the confidence to complete the battle in a short time.
If they are spotted by the UNSC forces while they are fighting, or if some of the Covenant infantry escapes, it will affect the rest of the mission. So he needed to make sure that the Noble team in charge of the pursuit investigation in the plot was at a safe distance.
"This is Commander 102, please speak." Lu Feng was still very curious at this time why the "seniors" of Team 501 would contact him at this time.
"This is where we are now. Where is your target now, and how soon will it take to reach our location? The commander of Team 501 sent his location information to Lu Feng, hoping to get an update on the movements of Team Noble, which Team 102 was monitoring.
"They're in your northwest direction, 14 kilometers away, and at their current tracking speed, I expect them to be at your current location in 10 minutes at most. And according to our interception, ground forces near UNSC are massing, and they can be there in 20 minutes at the earliest! β
Lu Feng shared the information in his hand with the 501 team without reservation, which basically cut off the possibility of the 501 team attacking now. After all, 10 minutes is too short. It's not a big problem to just kill a large area of Covenant infantry in front of you, but it would be a dream to capture a few specific captives as planned.
But as a veteran member of the space-time expedition, how can you do it without a little bit of creative power? After briefly considering the tactical options at hand, the captain of Team 501 decided to cooperate with Team 102 to make a noise.
With this tactic, they can draw the attention of the nearest UNSC ground force and give them a few more minutes to operate. After informing Team 102 of his plan, Team 102's captain Lu Feng agreed after a little consideration.
After all, the expedition team is a military organization that pays great attention to military achievements, and the 102 squad has little seniority. The record is small, and if you want to be seen inside the expedition, you must be outstanding. And that usually means seizing the opportunity in the middle of the task and performing well.
"We'll be responsible for disrupting their operations at the Visgrad communications station and trying to capture an elite who is expected to buy you 10 minutes. Lu Feng finally replied.
"Thank you, I'll repay you when ......I get back," the captain of Team 501 thanked him, and then he motioned for the fireman next to him to open fire. In a burst of explosions, the M920 Cain Cannon completed its mission. Blasted a large area of nearby Covenant infantry to ashes and large stumps of severed arms.
In terms of the effect of the explosion, the cannon just now was equivalent to the power of nearly 100 tons of TNT, and it knocked out the remaining Star Covenant infantry who were not affected. They also thought that they had been hit by small naval guns and hurried to find cover.
However, this behavior of theirs can only slow down the rate of their own demise. At this time, Team 501 had already divided into two teams through the smoke to divide the remaining Covenant infantry into three different parts, and soon began to pour fire.
At the Visgrad communication station more than a dozen kilometers away, Team 102 also intervened in the battle with the Star Alliance, first blowing up the main entrance after entering, blocking the actions of Noble's team that would soon arrive, and then they searched the building as fast as they could, hoping to find the commando team that the Star Alliance still stayed here to steal a few jΓΉ.
This search was carried out in groups of three, and Lu Feng and two team members carefully searched the empty corridor with optical camouflage. They were all holding their usual weapons, and Lu Feng was searching for the position of the leader in the formation at this time, holding a broadsword shotgun, ready to pull the trigger in front at any time.
Because according to the progress of the plot, the Covenant troops left here are the most elite troops, and several high-level elites are not only equipped with powerful shields and weapons, but also have optical camouflage to hide their figures, which greatly reduces their weapon and equipment advantages, and only careful advancement can ensure that the ship does not capsize in the gutter.
After coming to a corner full of corpses, Lu Feng suddenly stopped, and he heard a faint sound from the left corner from the sonar sensor integrated in the helmet, as if he had touched some living thing. When he looked around, he saw a few vague shadows at the end of the hallway. A terminal is swinging.
After adjusting the HUD of the visor to sonar mode, he saw 3 clear body outlines. Seeing this, he motioned to the two teammates behind him to also turn on the sonar display mode and enter the best attack position to get ready to attack.
When his teammates were ready, he pulled out a smoke grenade and threw it in the direction where the elites were. As soon as the smoke grenade landed, it alarmed the few elites who were still in a state of invisibility. Two of them were quick to pull out their plasma knives before the smoke grenade exploded.
"Human! Prepare to fight...... "These are the words of the leaders of those elites, of course, the people of the 102 squad can't understand it, what they hear is basically the leader of the elite yelling, and then they see the leader of the elite rushing towards them.
"Amateur! Lu Feng made such a comment in his heart, and then, his still smoke bomb exploded and released a large pile of rapidly diffusing smoke. The elite who rushed to the front was immediately obscured by the smoke that had just exploded.
Theoretically, after a second he would burst out of the smoke and regain his sight. But a second in battle can mean the difference between life and death, especially when fighting with members of an expedition! Although this elite and his companions were obscured by smoke grenades and could not see anything. But his enemies could see it clearly.
In the sonar face armor mode, the body outlines of several elites who rushed over were very obvious to the eyes of several members of Team 102, and the fierce firepower of Team 102's first fireteam immediately leaned towards their huge bodies. After resisting for almost a second, the elite leader's shield finally crumbled.
Immediately, he was pierced through the chest by more than a dozen consecutive rounds of plasma that reached his chest, and he fell down unwillingly with a large hole in his chest. The second elite suffered almost the same fate, except that due to the speed of the charge and the firepower that the elite had just drawn, this elite rushed to the front of the intersection.
It's just a pity. He was also destined to have no chance of threatening the lives of any of the members of Team 102, as he approached. The little shield left on his body was immediately shattered by the broadsword shotgun in Lu Feng's hand, and the remaining kinetic energy of the shotgun projectile still smashed his huge body into a pile of slag without hindrance.
The third, and last elite to rush to the front, really entered a melee state, and his plasma light knife really slashed at Lu Feng, who had just killed his companion, but this blow that he had high hopes for was not able to succeed.
Lu Feng easily dodged the blow with a bowed head, and then smashed it with the butt of a rifle at a very fast speed. It gave this elite's head a close touch, and the 20 kilograms of "touching" weight of the broadsword shotgun played an important role at this time, and after hitting the elite's jaw straight, the damage effect was quite outstanding.
Despite the armor protection, the elite spurted out a mouthful of blood from the blow. He felt like his jaw was almost smashed off by the butt of the human in front of him. This confused him.
Because as a high-level elite, he and several of his teammates had fought against the most powerful Spartan warriors in the human race, and he himself had killed a 3rd Spartan warrior in a battle, although he didn't know the difference between the 3rd and 2nd phases, but that experience still made him form the impression that the most elite warrior in the human race was just like that!
But the current situation was completely beyond his expectations, he didn't expect that such a heavy shield on his two companions could not last more than ten meters before being broken by the enemy's weapons, and he didn't understand why the human in front of him had such terrifying speed and strength. (To be continued......)
