Chapter Seventy-Four: The Choice of Warriors

“…… Right! I'm on the streets of Milan right now, and it's a mess! I don't see the ACA gendarmes maintaining order...... Right! A few minutes ago, the city defense of Milan suddenly announced that the city of Milan was about to be hit by satellite weapons and that the entire city would be evacuated, a news that caused panic, and now citizens are crowded in the streets...... There is no way to see the city defense army maintaining order...... (gunshots)"

"There is a situation, Ling Yu!"

On the next road, Ling Yu did not encounter any resistance, and according to the guidance of the map, he quickly arrived at the main room.

However, Ling Yu and the others' seemingly straightforward offensive actions suddenly encountered setbacks.

Han Fei, who was standing in front of the computer, was like a pianist at this time, but instead of the joy of playing his favorite songs, he frowned.

"What's wrong?" Ling Yu turned around and looked at Han Fei.

"Class D situation, I want to talk to Chino directly," Han Fei shook his head, and then pressed the headset, "Here are five groups of Han Fei, Class D situation, I found that there is a spare computer in the base, and the entire system is physically isolated, the emp attack cannot be destroyed, and the main computer will be taken over at the same time as the missile defense system will be taken over." ”

"I'm Chino Servette." Ling Yu heard Chino's voice from the channel, "Is there a way to solve it?" ”

"There is no way, the location of the computer is unknown, the base is too big to search." Han Fei pressed the headset and shook his headset, turning to look at Ling Yu, but it was as if he had thought of something, "However, I can set up a program to trick the main computer without destroying it, but it can be easily shut down, and your people must stay here until the attack is complete." ”

"Impossible." Ling Yu turned around and inserted directly into the communication channel, "Although I don't know where the TFs in this base have gone, they are coming back soon." ”

There was silence over the radio - a dilemma was in front of everyone's eyes.

If Ling Yu and the others had not stayed, it would have been very likely that these ordinary soldiers would not have been able to hold out until the satellite attack arrived

But if the crowd stays, they will most likely miss the opportunity to investigate the rocket base.

The ACA will not let up again and give everyone such a perfect opportunity.

"Damn, you little hairy heads, don't you underestimate us?" Suddenly, a familiar voice was inserted into the channel, and Ling Yu instantly heard that it was Old Green's voice, and it stands to reason that he had no permission to insert it into this channel.

"Green, you don't have the authority to speak on this channel." Sure enough, Camilo's icy voice followed.

"It's all dying, why are you still talking about these rules?" Green's voice was full of nonchalance, and across the radio, Ling Yu even heard the crisp metal crash of the veteran slashing the lighter, and the veteran lit a cigarette for himself as usual, and then let out a long breath.

"Go where you should go, we will guard this broken place."

"You're not sure." Han Fei frowned and exchanged glances with Ling Yu, but still said, "Under TF's attack, you won't be able to last long." ”

"Don't attack one TF at a time, do you think the ACA hasn't sent TF to clean us up? After fighting for so long, we're not those silly boys who haven't seen Superman. Green smiled softly, then suddenly took a breath and roared over the radio.

"Guys of the Free Army, can we hold this broken base!"

"Yes!"

Shouts in unison came from the headset, and some of the owners of these voices were standing beside Ling Yu.

Ling Yu turned around and looked around at the Free Army soldiers who were clenching their weapons in a fist, Ling Yu couldn't see their expressions through the helmet and mask, but he read a kind of love from the translucent eyepiece.

It was a proud confidence.

A natural person soldier, in the face of the upcoming TF, with a confident gaze, gave an answer.

"It doesn't make sense, let you look down on the Italians." Maka's voice came from the side, he walked to Han Fei's side, patted him on the shoulder, and then looked at Ling Yu, "Han Fei's safety, we will also be responsible." ”

"Camilo, Maka, you two are responsible for Han Fei's safety, once he completes the mission, you two will escort him back immediately!" Chino's voice sounded from the radio again, as if realizing the meaning of the order, Chino gritted his teeth and repeated, "This is the order!" ”

"Understood."

“…… Roger that. ”

Marca's answer was crisp, while Camilo's voice was visibly hesitant.

"Old Green, now you fully accept the command of the Free Army commando," Chino took a deep breath, and then gave the order in an orderly manner, "Be sure, at any cost, to stick to the base until the satellite weapon launch!" ”

"No problem, Colonel." Old Green's voice sounded again, still with that kind of confidence that he didn't care, as if he was not facing a group of TFs, but a few hairy children.

"This is Ling Yu," Ling Yu once again looked around the soldiers around him, and finally turned his gaze to Maca, taking a deep breath, "Jeunse, Logan, Linya, leave all the explosives in your hands to the soldiers of the Free Army, let them blow up the passage and set up the mines." ”

"Understood!"

"Jessy, can we go?"

"The means of transportation have been ensured, the ACA standard field ambulance armored vehicle, the IFF has been modified, as long as you don't look closely, you should only think that we are the defeated soldiers who escaped from Novara."

Jeunse's voice was heard with the roar of the engine, still reliable and reassuring.

"So—" Ling Yu took a deep breath, then closed his eyes and opened his lips.

"From now on, the defense of the base in Novara will be taken over by the Free Italian Army, and our goal will be changed to Vercelli!"

"Understood!"

***

"Ling Yu, come here, I have something to tell you."

Just before Ling Yu gave the final order and turned around to leave, Han Fei suddenly took off the microphone on his ear and beckoned at Ling Yu.

"You should also understand the current situation," Han Fei pushed his glasses, a trace of imperceptible worry flashed in his eyes, "Even if there is a TF to help here now, there is a high probability that the rocket base will concentrate heavy troops, they know that you will go, so it is possible to prepare all kinds of traps and targeted means, not to mention that we can also use satellites to complete the attack - so I dissuade you one last time, even then do you still want to go?" ”

"That's not the point," Ling Yu shook his head slightly, "We don't have a structural map of the satellite base, a satellite strike may not be able to cause lethal damage, and if they have abandoned the base long ago, I need to find a clue to go to the next target, the Italian theater of operations is only a part, and the achievements here will not stop Char's further, dangerous attack." ”

Ling Yu was silent for a moment, then reached out and patted Han Fei on the shoulder, "We all know Charl Pierre, he is a person who is good at and obsessed with active attacks, only by cutting off his hand can it be possible to thwart his plot, I must go." ”

"Since you have decided, then I will no longer block it," Han Fei saw that Ling Yu did not waver, so he did not persuade again, "I will try my best to write a complicated and difficult to crack deception program here, so as to buy you more time." ”

"It's been a long time since I've fought side by side like this," Ling Yu smiled softly, looking at this friend he had always been friends of, stretched out his hand, and gave a thumbs up, "Thank you for helping me." ”

"Okay, one last point," Han Fei thanked Ling Yu and shook his head with a light smile, he paused and made a final addition, "All of you have overlooked one thing, in our entire offensive path, there is one thing that has never appeared, except for TF. ”

"What?" Ling Yu raised his eyebrows and asked.

***

"Drones, not a single drone appeared during the entire attack."

Ling Yu broke open the battery compartment of the mysterious pistol, checked the battery stock, although there were still two rounds, but he still replaced it with a new one - anyway, the back of the armored car was full of various weapons and ammunition, including fusion batteries.

The four elite TFs were all sitting in the back seat of the armored car at this time, while the armored car with the red cross painted on the outside was driving towards Vercelli, where the ACA rocket base was located, under the control of the on-board AI.

"That's true!" Logan was stunned for a moment, then continued to check his stun baton, this weapon was an anti-TF weapon that he had customized for the arms dealer to suit him, so it didn't work at all during the raid on the base, and the sniper rifle he got from his uncle before leaving had already been given to the Free Army.

"Yes, there were no drones when attacking the entire base," Linya said, carrying the molecular vibrating sword on her back, the name of the indestructible sword.

"Are you saying that these drones, like TFs, were pumped out and used to ambush us?" Jesse moved the wrist of her right hand and frowned.

"If it disappears for other reasons, the guerrillas should have intelligence, after all, such an important base, there should be about 200 unmanned weapons of all kinds, and even if it is repaired, it is impossible to transfer them all." Ling Yu frowned and stated, this was not his reasoning, but Han Fei's original words, "So this is the only way to explain - in addition to a dozen excellent TFs, we may also need to face hundreds of unmanned weapons, human or unmanned." ”

"There's an even worse possibility."

At this moment, Jessy's voice came, her eyes widened, she glanced at the four people sitting behind the armored car, and exhaled softly, "These drones are someone's weapons." ”

"You mean......" Ling Yu frowned, thinking of a possibility.

"'Digital princess?!' Logan bluntly put forward Ling Yu's conjecture, "She is a master of using drones, but isn't she in Brazil, why did she come to Italy." ”

"Yes," Jess raised her hand and touched her chin, looking at Linya who was confused, "Linya, you should also know that there are many sensory TFs who have some expertise in brainwaves, and the head of the South African branch of the Eye of Solidarity we met in Brazil, Khrisy Ivanovna Ivanova is one, according to the information I collected afterwards, she is a perception TF, and the weapons she uses are various types of drones. ”

"So our opponent this time is her?" Linya responded.

"Quite possibly." Ling Yu closed his eyes, inserted the Mystery Pistol into the holster of his right leg, pulled out the Shimmer Dagger, and replaced a battery, "Although it doesn't make sense why she came here, but I feel this way." ”

"When did you develop the perceptual talent?" Logan chuckled.

It's really ...... With a little feeling, Ling Yu raised his head with a wry smile, just in time to meet Jiesi's gaze, and the girl opposite cast the young man with a "you know" expression.

"Ahem, in short, no matter what, act together, be careful," Ling Yu finally concluded, "If you encounter a hostile TF, concentrate your firepower and take paralyzing the opponent's ability to move as the primary goal." ”

"Remember that our first task is to sabotage the rocket launch center or find clues related to the rocket," Ling Yu paused for a moment and added, "With our ability, we must complete these quickly, and the rest will be improvised according to the specific situation, in short, don't be too obsessed." ”

"Understood!"

The three of them answered neatly, and when Ling Yu moved her gaze to Jiesi, she suddenly found that there was something deep in the girl's smile.
