Chapter 177: Two Flotillas

β€œβ€¦β€¦ In the middle of the last century, these vast Pacific island nations were in danger of being completely submerged, so most of their inhabitants were relocated with the help of the Alliance, and although there are rumors that these 'eco-refugees' have been in dire condition for a long time, there is no evidence of a large-scale humanitarian crisis. However, much of the infrastructure of these countries has not been flooded, so it has become a haven for terrorists, mercenaries and illegal arms dealers, and there is even evidence that illegal military agencies have built heavy industrial facilities on these islands......"

"3.2.1. Detonation!"

The moment the violent explosion came, Lin Yifeng rolled out the stone used for cover, and rushed into the smoke with a gun in the back.

"Safety!"

"Safety!"

"There's no movement on the perimeter, sir."

The voice of the team member came from the earphone, Lin Yifeng glanced at the helmet UI, whether it was the heartbeat sensor, the motion sensor, or the infrared radar, all showed a qiΔ“ normal.

Although the No. 4 sniper Lu Xilan is still recuperating in the hospital, the No. 5 can also play a cameo role as a sniper, and the confident Lin Yifeng does not think that the absence of a team member will affect the combat effectiveness of this team, so he did not hesitate to take on this task.

"Area security, No. 2 is responsible for the left, No. 3 is responsible for the right, and No. 5 continues to be on guard on the perimeter." Lin Yifeng frowned, and then gave an order.

"Yes!"

They went to sea four kilometers outside the island of Pohnpei. In the process of approaching, no trace of the enemy was found - or rather, no trace of humanity at all.

In the process of infiltrating, the team did not find any traces of guards or humans, and even after Lin Yifeng ordered to blow up the gate at the entrance of the base, there was no sign of the enemy.

Even if it's a trap, now that I've stepped into the base, the imaginary ambush should have appeared.

Lin Yifeng raised his hand and put the assault rifle back behind his back, and the bayonet of the power armor automatically jammed the rifle. The young man walked to a control platform. Unscrewing the lid of the fingers of the armor's right hand revealed an interface.

But this device has been physically destroyed, and Lin Yifeng saw a row of bullet holes on its chassis from a distance, so he just tried it by chance.

"Number two. Number three. Look for a working terminal. The enemy may have abandoned the base. ”

"So, sir, I have one here. The destruction is not complete. ”

Before the words fell, the voice of No. 2 on his left side came to the radio, Lin Yifeng turned around and ran over, and found that No. 2 was tearing open the main chassis that also had a series of bullet holes, and the screen of this machine was gradually lighting up.

"Three, move closer to me and be vigilant." Lin Yifeng paused, "No. 2, can you recover the number of jΓΉ?" ”

"I can't restore everything, everything I can see is here, these ACA grandsons believe in physical destruction too much, they don't delete the text at all, and they don't encrypt it."

Two cleaned up in the case for a while and poked his head out.

"Thank you."

Lin Yifeng stepped forward and manipulated the terminal.

"Three days ago, two fleets left here, in equal numbers, both camouflaged cargo ships, and it is impossible to see what was before the camouflage." Lin Yifeng shared information with the team, "But the number is not small, and it is consistent with the intelligence, if this is just an advance base, it should be a large-scale attack." ”

"And there are chemical weapons, a lot of them."

Lin Yifeng's cold voice spread over the radio, making everyone's hearts sink.

"In the direction of attack...... The flotilla sailed in two directions, one to the Mediterranean Sea and the other to the Panama Canal. Lin Yifeng inserted the interface in his right hand into the terminal and downloaded the information, "Number 5 contacts the Universal Lords and asks them to send this news to 'Prism' and the rest of the team, and they make their own judgments. ”

"Yes!"

"Then, inform the Global Lord," Lin Yifeng hesitated slightly, and then gave another order, "Let's go to the Mediterranean." ”

"Captain, isn't it more important on the Panamanian side?" Three's voice came and offered his opinion.

"Because it's more important, Prism will definitely go over there." Lin Yifeng closed his eyes and shook his head gently, "Inform the Universal Lord, we will answer in twenty minutes, we will hurry up and see if we can find more information." ”

"Understood! Sir! ”

***

"Inform the cockpit, turn around, let's go to Panama."

When Ling Yu gave this order, the plane was flying over the vast Siberian plain, heading for Vladivostok.

Like Lin Yifeng's judgment, Ling Yu did not hesitate to make a tactical arrangement - the North American side is densely populated, much more vulnerable, and needs reinforcements more.

"Having departed three days ago, according to the average speed of 50 nautical miles for camouflaged cargo ships, it should be two days before they reach the east coast." Han Fei, the humanoid computer, glanced at the map and began to do mental calculations, "It's just the time when the solar storm and the alliance's command system is chaotic. ”

"There are still some satellites that can be used, can't we find them based on their tracks?" Rogan sat down in a chair next to him with a glass of milk in his hand and asked.

"It's impossible for such a ship to take a regular route, and the speed will definitely change." Linya held a biscuit in her mouth, "Without Icarus' all-round surveillance, it would be a needle in a haystack to find such a fleet, and there are a large number of cargo ships in the Pacific Ocean every day, so it is impossible to contact and screen them one by one." ”

"Ling Yu, what are you thinking?" Although Liana was not a TF and didn't need to eat as hard as the others to cope with the next battle, she still took a cookie in her mouth, and then handed Ling Yu an unpacked sandwich.

"There are a couple of things that don't make sense." Ling Yu took the sandwich, then raised his head and glanced at Herris, who was sitting next to him, taking a small bite of bread. "Herris, you haven't spoken since just now, what's wrong?"

I'm wondering where they might attack.

Helis jumped down from the stool, stuffed the bread in his hand into Ling Yu's hand, and the white kitten, who had changed into a silver combat suit, walked to the map table and stretched out his finger.

Underneath her fingertips is the name of a city.

Washington dc.

"You think they're going to attack Washington?" Ling Yu frowned and exchanged glances with the others in the room.

From the point of view of profit maximization, only here.

Helis shook her head slightly, then raised her hand and gently touched her chin. Turning his head to look at Han Fei.

When Icarus was evacuated. All the command structures of the alliance will be scattered, right?

"That's right, all the commands will go down to the surface, Congress and the president will stay in Washington...... So you think the ACA wants to take down the league's top command center...... Presidential palace? ”

Helis nodded and took a breath. Specific explanations began.

I understand the ACA. They don't have a large scale. The ability to deliver at sea for a long time, I've been thinking just now, if I were the commander of the ACA. Give me such a commando team disguised as a civilian ship, what can I do? It is impossible for me to launch a landing operation, because once Icarus resumes work, then the satellite weapons will completely block the subsequent delivery of supplies and supplies, so that the landing force will only have the end of being wiped out, I know you want to talk about sea dominance, this will be talked about later, but now, if I want to use a sacrificial army-level commando to launch an attack on a target, and maximize the benefits, then this is the only place, and the supreme command center of the alliance is defeated in one fell swoop, Then attack on several fronts at the same time to achieve the greatest results.

"The problem is, Washington's Fourth Fleet is anchored in Portsmouth, and it's impossible for the ACA fleet to land in Washington from Chesapeake Bay!"

Han Fei was stunned for a moment and spoke.

"The Fourth Fleet is not in anchorage, it is carrying out anti-submarine escort combat readiness missions in the Pacific Ocean, and Portsmouth is now empty." Liana frowned and gave Han Fei an explanation, but immediately turned to look at Helis, "The problem is that the Sixth Fleet is still in Newport Harbor and is responsible for the defense of the East Coast, even if the ACA suddenly attacks, they can rush to the Chesapeake Bay in a few hours and sink all the ACA cargo ships that have not had time to unload." ”

The ACA must have a way to paralyze the Sixth Fleet in Newport.

Helis closed her eyes, gave an unquestionable answer, and then continued.

I think that instead of thinking about where the ACA may attack, it is better to think about where the ACA can only attack, such a deep lone army, which is basically a state of death, where can the attack be worthy of such casualties? From this point of view, the entire North American continent is the only one.

Helis stood on tiptoe and stabbed the tip of her finger again at the map table, Washington's location.

"By the way, speaking of which," Han Fei pushed his glasses and leaned over to the map table, "Don't forget, the camouflaged civilian ships used by the other party can't be unloaded anywhere at will, and they must have complete port facilities." ”

"That's Baltimore." Ling Yu nodded, patted Helis on the shoulder and expressed encouragement, "Reyanna, inform the cockpit, let's go directly to Newport, and then let the Secret Service strengthen Baltimore's anti-TF defenses." ”

"Hmm......" Liana nodded, but hesitated visibly.

"What's wrong?" Looking at Riana, who rarely showed such an expression, Ling Yu asked keenly.

"Here's the Secret Service...... Something isn't quite right. ”

Leianna frowned, and the fingers of her right hand tapped lightly on the map table.

***

"That's it, Anderson, you're in charge of the other side, and I'll personally supervise Washington."

Meanwhile, Washington, Southwestern Suburbs, Pentagon, Secret Service Office, David Brown, Washington, Southwestern Suburbs, Pentagon, Secret Service Office, David Washington, D.C., Southwest Suburbs, Pentagon, Morgan gently put down the phone.

The building, once home to the most powerful Ministry of Defense on the planet, has now opened four-fifths of its area to the museum for free admission to citizens and tourists, with only a small area in the north wing that retains a ground office of the Secret Service.

Like other military agencies, the Secret Service usually works on Icarus, and when Icarus is in danger, the main leaders will return to the ground and disperse to work and command, and the Secret Service is in this Pentagon.

In addition, there is an extremely important area in the underground computer room of this building - the quantum communication exchange area.

Although quantum communication is a point-to-point medium-free transmission, a large number of call requests for military needs must be organized by the equipment, assigned priority and priority, and even different permissions, so most of the East Coast quantum communication will be called here first and transferred.

In other words, if you paralyze here, you will paralyze the quantum communication system of a large area of the Alliance.

Director Morgan, who put down the phone, took a light breath, then glanced at the electronic board on the table, was silent for a moment, picked up the phone again, and instead of calling the operator, he pressed a string of numbers.

The phone was connected, Morgan held the receiver, but did not speak, and the person on the other side seemed to know something and did not urge.

After more than ten seconds of silence, Morgan spoke, his voice heavy and hoarse.

"As soon as the plan goes well, Baltimore has opened its doors, let those guys in."

"Note that, unlike Paris, the Kronos Company did not participate in this operation, and all Cronos Company combat units are considered enemy units."

"Go for it."

Raising his hand and pressing the phone, Morgan closed his eyes and sank his body deep into the couch, and the white-haired old man seemed to age much older again in an instant.

After more than ten minutes of silence, he trembled and reached out and pulled open a drawer in front of his desk.

Inside is a photograph and a string of dog tags, in which the young man is dressed in the uniform of the Confederate Air Force and has a gentle and bright smile.

"This world has been asleep long enough that it has forgotten the existence of heroes, forgetting that they live under your protection."

"If it takes someone to wake up the world, let me do it."

"I'm here to remind people of you, son, with the heroes who spilled their blood."

Morgan slowly stood up, put the photo and dog tag in his close-fitting pocket, and then took out his matching gun from the drawer and aimed it at his temple.

The gunshots rang out, and the bullet pierced Morgan's head without flying, and after a few tenths of a second, it was rediscovered with a red and white liquid. (To be continued......)
