Chapter 140: Make a Decision on the Spot

After deciding, Yang Yi found Zheng Xiaolong and told him about his arrangement.

Although it was not clear why Yang Yi risked going to the enemy flagship, Zheng Xiaolong knew that the fleet of the theater command might not be able to arrive in time. The only way to survive is to repel the enemy, and if you don't have enough troops, you can only take out the enemy's commander.

Actually, this is also Yang Yi's idea.

It is important to find out the origin of the beast egg, and it is equally important to guard post 828 and protect the hundreds of officers and soldiers in the post. Although Zheng Xiaolong and the others are all officers and soldiers of the guard force, in the upcoming Sixth Greenwich War, the enemy will not care so much at all. Besides, after the Luo family is destroyed, Zhan Ruilin will definitely rectify the guard troops, and everyone will still have to fight side by side at that time.

Four hours later, the enemy attacked again.

The attack location is still the hangar, and the main force is still the humanoid rock demon, but the ironclad battle at the front station has obviously increased a lot compared to the last time.

According to Yang Yi's arrangement, Buck and the others changed into the combat uniforms of the defenders and fought side by side with the defenders.

Although it is not a problem for Buck and the others to repel the enemy's attack or even eliminate the enemy at the landing post, it will expose their strength and let the enemy know that there are strong soldiers in the outpost. It would be great if you brought in the enemy's commander, that is, a general who could compete with the soldiers. The problem is that if the enemy retreats as a result, and destroys the post before retreating, at least the servicemen guarding the post will die without a place to bury.

The battle lasted more than ten minutes, and only after paying a heavy price did the enemy withdraw.

The battle was fierce, and the defenders suffered many casualties. Fortunately, Yang Yi and the others brought enough genetic medicine, as long as they didn't die on the spot, no matter how serious the injuries were, they could still be saved. In addition, the repulsion of the enemy's attack once again greatly boosted the morale of the officers and men of the defenders.

"Do you want more?"

Glancing at the rations handed by Zheng Xiaolong, Buck shook his head with a smile. In fact, he was not hungry, but he was not able to refuse Zheng Xiaolong's warm hospitality.

Of course, military rations are mainly calorie-soothing, and not very taste-conscious.

"You're all from the Special Reconnaissance Brigade?"

"Sort of."

Zheng Xiaolong was a little puzzled, and he didn't quite understand what Buck meant.

"Captain Lin Feng has recruited us, but we haven't gone through the relevant procedures yet." Buck smiled faintly and said, "It doesn't matter. When war breaks out, anyone has to fight for the Federation unconditionally. Even if we are not officers and soldiers of the Special Reconnaissance Brigade, we are federal soldiers. ”

"You trust them?"

"Them?"

"Captain Yang Yi, he's young, isn't he?"

Buck laughed, Zheng Xiaolong made such a big detour, in fact, he was listening to Yang Yi's details.

Zheng Xiaolong also smiled reluctantly, looking a little embarrassed.

"He's really young, only eighteen, but I believe in him." Buck let out a long sigh and said, "It's not just me, we all owe him our lives. If it weren't for him, we'd be finished. As a soldier, you should know that age is not a key factor in determining ability. ”

Zheng Xiaolong nodded slightly, thinking seriously about Buck's words.

"Don't worry, we'll be fine with him." Buck patted Zheng Xiaolong on the shoulder.

Zheng Xiaolong didn't say anything more, and he didn't know what to say.

At this time, on the S-class battleship about 100,000 kilometers away from the outpost.

Behind the porthole of the commander's bridge, a silicon general who was more than three meters tall and as thin as a flagpole stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the returning landing ship with an expressionless face.

His name was Sloan, the commander of the attack, and one of Kutum's henchmen.

Although he is only a general, Sloane can be said to be famous in the Silicon Charm Alliance. Of course, his fame comes mainly from Kutum.

In the Silicon Alliance, the status of a warlord is similar to that of a soldier of the Human Federation. Although some powerful generals have more power than level 10 soldiers, most of them have the power below level 10 soldiers. Shi Long is not in the minority, and his combat power is about the same as that of an eighth-level soldier. It's just that he follows the most powerful Kutum King in the Silicon Charm Alliance, who is also famous in the Galactic Alliance, but is the bad name.

In addition, Kutum was one of only eight remaining kings to participate in the Fifth Greenwich War.

In the Silicon Charm Alliance, the War King has a transcendent status, and among them, the "Eight Kings" are the most. To put it simply, as long as the legendary War Emperor does not make a comeback, the "Eight Kings" are the most powerful existence in the Silicon Charm Alliance, and Kutum is the strongest of the "Eight Kings".

Although Sloan's combat power is not outstanding, he is deeply trusted and reused by Kutum.

The reason is simple, Sloane is one of the few generals in the Silicon Charm Alliance who is known for his shrewdness.

The sneak attack on Outpost 828 was planned by Sloane.

The operation was going well, and at least until then, Sloane's plans were all a reality. It's just that what Sloane didn't expect was that the defenders of Outpost 828 held out for five days. According to his plan, the battle was over, at least after the Iron Armor Battle.

The two attacks led by the ironclad frenzy were actually repulsed by the defenders!

Although intelligence from the front indicated that the defenders had used heavy weapons designed to deal with the ironclad frenzy, Sloane did not think so. Quite simply, none of the officers who reported to him were involved in the battle, and none of the officers who commanded the battle at the front came back alive.

If the defenders had the heavy weapons to take out an entire team of ironclad frenzy and annihilate thousands of humanoid rock demons, would the battle be like this?

There must be something wrong, something must be wrong!

Sloan was a little worried, but he couldn't say why. Of course, he couldn't show his worries either, because two consecutive attacks were repulsed, which had already had an impact on morale. Although he was in command, the simple-minded soldiers below would not suspect him, but the huge casualties and the situation of not being able to attack for a long time already posed a threat to his prestige and made some officers suspicious.

Doubt is a seed that takes root and sprouts when it is planted.

Sloan knew very well that if he showed concern at this time, there would definitely be some officer who would step up and challenge him and replace him.

In the Silicon Charm Alliance, everything depends on strength, and there is nothing without strength.

What's more, Sloan didn't dare to disappoint Kutum.

Kutum asked him to lead a legion to attack Outpost 828, not to capture Outpost, but to recapture the egg that had been lost in the Greenwich Meteorite Belt but was first found by the forces of the Human Federation, and brought back intact. As for why the beast egg was worth the fight, Kutum didn't say, and Sloan didn't ask. It's not that he doesn't want to know, but he knows what to ask and what not to ask. Kutum's order is clear, either complete the mission smoothly or never go back, because if the mission is not completed, going back will not end well. Sloan knows very well that there are no losers under Kutum, and losers don't want to serve Kutum.

The battle, which was originally planned to be completed in two days, has now been fought for five days.

Two consecutive failed attacks drained Sloane's last patience.

It's time to wrap it up!

At this moment, a burly ironclad man walked over. Although Sloan was short and thin compared to him, he looked grovelling in front of Sloane. This is the effect of the power gap, and it is also the basis of the social order of the Silicon Charm Alliance.

"Gather everyone and prepare to attack."

"General, the offensive has just ended, and now ......"

"I'm in command."

Ironclad didn't say anything more, turned and walked away.

Outside, the landing ship was already approaching.

As with the previous attack, the outcome of this attack was still very bad, with all the ironclad frenzy and humanoid rock demons at the landing post killed, and none of them made it back to the landing ship alive. In addition to the officers and soldiers on the landing ship, there were only a few humanoid rock demons who did not have time to board the outpost.

Sloan didn't want to take the risk, it just wasn't he had a choice.

The planned time for the capture of post 828 was two days, while the time given to him by Kutum was five days. If he can't take post 828 in the next attack, even if he continues to fight and occupy post 828, he won't be able to explain to Kutum, at least he will be disappointed in him.

Without Kutum's trust and reuse, Sloane will lose everything.

With his combat power, without Kutum's support, his status will plummet.

Obviously, this is an unacceptable result for Sloane.

It was precisely because of this that Sloane lost his mind. Although he knew that the battle situation was not quite the same as he knew, and there must be a very important reason why the officers and soldiers of Post 828 were able to repel the two attacks led by the Iron Armor Madness, Shi Long didn't think much about it, and he didn't have time to think about it. Reinforcements from the Human Federation could arrive at any time, and he couldn't delay any longer, otherwise he would have to face more than just Kutum's wrath.

This is only an attack ordered by Kutum, not an all-out war against the Galactic Alliance.

If this triggers a full-scale war with the Galactic Alliance, not to mention Sloane, a small general, even Kutum can't afford it.

You must know that the only one who is qualified to lead the Silicon Charm Alliance to wage war is the legendary War Emperor. The king of war, who is high up in peacetime, has no power to start a war at all.

It's got to be a quick fix, it's necessary to take down Outpost 828 immediately, find that damn egg, and then withdraw it.

Soon, the humanoid rock demons of the ten phalanxes and the ironclad frenzy of the three phalanxes were ready to fight.

Because of the different types of troops, the size of the phalanx is also different. Humanoid rock demons are a team of 100 people, 10 teams are a team, and a phalanx has 1,000 people. Ironclad frenzied battles were fought in a team of twenty people, and five were in pairs, so there were only one hundred people in a phalanx. Of course, it is not the number of people who determine the combat power. On the ground battlefield, a thousand humanoid rock demons can't beat a hundred ironclad battles, and in large-scale battles, ironclad battles are even more valuable.

When the landing ship approached the flagship, Sloan came to the take-off and landing deck.
