Volume 1 Section 371 Retreat
Those bastards in the military department are blind people with open eyes. Can't they see that this qiē is all an obstacle set up by the 505 group soldiers?
At best, these words can only be whispered in private. The purpose of this campaign was very clear to the military headquarters, and even two days ago, when the division commander was still healthy, he asked the military headquarters to suspend the march and the whole division to retreat to the rear base for rest, but it was rejected by the joint meeting of the military headquarters and the general staff.
The Major was furious at this.
He thinks that those people in the military department simply don't take the front-line officers and soldiers seriously. Without vehicles and combat machinery, the 10 infantry divisions had lost 50 percent of their combat effectiveness. The constant generation of sick soldiers along the way caused the 10U Division to lose a lot of personnel. Although the soldiers did not die as a result, they were unable to reach the designated area along the way. Even if he and the more than 300 people around him walked to the new Guiyang base unscathed, what could they do?
There is no heavy equipment, there are no follow-up reinforcements, and even daily supplies and ammunition are lacking, isn't this going to death?
As for the order of the military department to "search carefully along the route", the major still complied, but scoffed at the results.
With the exception of the refugees, the search team did not find any suspicious targets.
Waiting in silence is confusing and unbearable. The military headquarters had not replied to the telegram, the sun was still shining, and the soldiers stood expressionless under the shade of the trees, only sweat dripping down their chins and soaking the dry clods of earth.
A bearded veteran broke the silence first: "I heard that the commander of the 505th Army is very smart, a young man with excellent combat records and very capable of fighting. ”
The person next to him quickly picked up the conversation: "I've heard of that guy named Su Hao." He was the first to come up with several tactics that we are using. It is said that he used the same method to kill hundreds of thousands of monsters in Lujiang City, and the results were brilliant. ”
"Hey, remember that secret video circulating on the military network last year? It is said that it is the live video of Su Hao's madness at the military department meeting. At that time, he an important leader of the military department. I like this guy, he's always on our side. ”
The medic wiped the sweat from his forehead and joined the conversation circle: "You may not know that the energy potion is also Su Hao's invention. Not many people know about it, though, but it works well and can save your life at a critical time. ”
The communications corps was a young man in his twenties. He glanced at the electronic screen that still had no reply signal, and asked curiously: "According to what you say, Su Hao should be considered a good person?" ”
The medic smiled faintly, "Of course. I was seriously wounded during the last siege. If it weren't for the energy potion, I would have died long ago. ”
The expression of the communication soldier was full of confusion: "In that case, why do we want to attack the new Guiyang base?" It was the jurisdiction of the 505th Army, and their commander was Su Hao. Those guys in the military department shouldn't have eaten too much, right? Why attack that kind of place? ”
The veteran picked up a rather cool place and sat down, and said slowly: "Haven't you read the brochure issued by the military headquarters? Su Hao was a traitor and a rebel, and was tried in absentia by a military court for capital crimes. They certainly won't let a single criminal go unpunished. ”
The young messenger shook his head: "I don't think so. There are too many things that can be used as a reason to kill people by making up charges. Haven't you seen those previous movies? None of the protagonists who were hunted down in it made mistakes, and they were all so-called culpables imposed by others. I think we're playing the role of thugs now. ”
No one continued to answer, and the scene fell silent again.
The electronic screen was still a curtain, and the person in charge of replying to the message from the military department seemed to have come to the aunt or was fighting with some strong man in the toilet. This speculation is not unfounded. The people in charge of telecommunications are usually women, with good bodies and good looks, who are chased and ravaged like butterflies.
The major's gloomy complexion showed no sign of letting go. He paced back and forth in place, and after nearly five minutes, he suddenly turned around and shouted at the waiting soldiers in great anxiety.
"Everyone turns in place, target, field supply point twenty kilometers away."
He couldn't have the patience to wait any longer.
Whether it's disobedience on the battlefield or disobeying orders, in short, those guys can do whatever they want, it's a big deal, once Lao Tzu's military uniform is taken off, even if he is a civilian, it is much better than procrastination like now.
What's more, the soldiers are right, it always makes no sense to fight with a good person.
At the temporary headquarters, Sibo connected to Yuan Zhicheng's special line.
"How's it going?"
"Very bad."
Sibo methodically reported the relevant items to Yuan Zhicheng one by one. It includes the actual losses of the round-up troops, casualties, the definition of the time before and after, and the detailed process of the incident.
It has been a long time since Su Hao broke out of the encirclement net. Two hours ago, the AWACS aircraft sent back a message: they had lost Su Hao's trace.
The reason why he chose to report the details of the incident to Yuan Zhicheng now is not that Sibo is afraid of taking responsibility. He knew very well that the news of the failure of the round-up battle was naturally reported to Yuan Zhicheng in advance. As the person responsible for the specific implementation of the action plan, you must come up with something more convincing and more important.
Yuan Zhicheng's eyes were sunken in their sockets, and his appearance looked older than usual. He looked a little tired, leaned back on the sofa, and said in a slow tone characteristic of an old man: "Didn't Sun Zhan say that it was foolproof when he made his plan? You've also looked at the planning steps and think that each step is precise and there is no need to revise it. Now, why is this happening? ”
"Su Hao's hole cards are far beyond imagination."
Sibo's face was extremely solemn, and his tone was sonorous: "What he has is not just a supernumerary group army. Judging from the actual battle, he has surpassed the highest limit of the reinforcement. I wonder what exactly happened to him during his trip to the United States with the delegation? But I'm sure he's evolved by now. ”
Yuan Zhicheng suddenly opened his eyes and released an unbelievable gaze.
"Evolutionary man? How is this possible? ”
Sibo casually clicked on the battle video on the screen behind him, and said in a deep voice: "This is the truth. Only in this way can we explain the series of changes that happened to Su Hao. ”
Yuan Zhicheng frowned and breathed calmly: "This is your guess?" Or do you have solid evidence? ”
Sibo straightened up and replied affirmatively, "It's my personal guess." ”
Yuan Zhicheng shifted to a more comfortable sitting position, his expression full of worry and doubt: "Since he is an evolutionary person, why is there no warning in the central monitoring system?" There are no personnel from the special supervision department either? The information of the body of the evolved human is very special, and when the constitution changes, the basic cells will have a repulsion effect from the surrounding environment, and the demand for oxygen and energy will also increase dramatically. This change is difficult for the average person to detect, but professional equipment can lock in the anomaly through air conduction. No one can change this, and there is no way to hide the breath. If what you said was true, the special regulatory authorities must have been aware of it at the time. However, they never sent any personnel to know that their needs for evolved humans were more urgent than anyone else's. ”
Sibo did not comment on Mr. Yuan's words. He didn't know what "special supervision department" meant, and it was the first time he had heard the name from Yuan Zhicheng. However, Sibo knew that within the military, there was a very mysterious organization that existed. The staffing is small, and he never shows his head in public. Their only task is to set off as soon as they discover the aura of the evolved human and bring the target back to the military headquarters
After thinking for a few seconds, Sibo said uncertainly: "Perhaps, Su Hao has mastered some kind of method of concealing aura?" ”
"Unlikely."
Yuan Zhicheng shook his head: "If he really has a similar method, then he will definitely not use it now." Su Hao has always been inferior in the battle of the military department, and if he had already possessed the strength of an evolutionary person, he would not have racked his brains to deal with Sun Zhan. What's more, two years ago in the abandoned city of Chengdu, there was a case of an evolved person named "Yue Zhennan". After reviewing his identity and relationship, the intelligence department believes that Yue Zhennan is likely to have some kind of connection with Su Hao. Perhaps, it was the lurkers arranged by Su Hao among the refugees. The value of an evolutionary man is no weaker than that of a fully staffed group army. Do you think it is possible for Su Hao to give up the power he has in vain? ”
Sibo thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps, this matter has something to do with the Academy of Sciences?" ”
Yuan Zhicheng stared at the screen with cloudy eyes, and said with pity: "You always like to extrapolate things to the bad side, and you always like to associate various problems with Wang Qinian." I understand how you feel, and the painful experiences of your childhood can indeed become indelible memories. However, your inference this time is clearly wrong. ”
Sibo couldn't help but blurt out: "Why? ”
"Because evolutionary man cannot exist in this world. Even if Wang Qinian really has a way to hide the aura of evolution, he must consider whether it is worth it. ”
Yuan Zhicheng sighed: "You don't understand, although Wang Qinian, this bastard, is hateful, but he is actually on our side in the general direction." If Su Hao really became an evolutionary person, the Academy of Sciences would definitely not help him, but would turn against him. ”
Sibo was stunned and asked, "Why?" ”
Yuan Zhicheng did not continue to answer. He was silent for a moment and said, "How is the situation on your side now?" How much remnant of combat power is left? ”
Sibo didn't understand why Yuan Zhicheng suddenly changed the topic? But he understands that continuing to ask questions at this time will only anger the other party. The wisest thing to do is to answer whatever you ask.
"The loss of troops and equipment is not significant. But all the "slave" units on standby in the area have been killed.
Speaking of this, Sibo's eyes were a little gloomy: "Su Hao's strength is extremely strong, and his alertness and reaction ability are very sharp. Although the high-energy laser can cause damage to him, I am afraid that a similar opportunity will never appear again. Perhaps it was the widening range of perception, or perhaps the most potentially dangerous intuition, that he was always moving his position and could not lock on. Now, we've lost the target of surveillance. ”
Yuan Zhicheng's expression was cold and grim. He looked at Sibo and asked, "Do you have any good advice on this?" ”
After thinking about it for a long time, Sibo gritted his teeth and said, "It's best for me not to fight Su Hao directly, and order all the troops who went to attack the new Guiyang base city to retreat immediately." In addition, find and win over people who are good friends with Su Hao, such as Wang Qinian, the president of the Academy of Sciences. Through their relationship, they reached an understanding with Su Hao. ”
It's not a disagreement, it's what Spiro really thinks.
Su Hao is no longer the same as in the past. Since he is strong and cannot fight, he can only change his attitude and befriend him. Otherwise, the next target to become Su Hao's attack is likely to be the Yuan family.
As for Sibo himself...... Some things can't be changed. The advice given to others, the true attitude of one's own heart towards things, can never be combined into one.
Beijing No. 1 Base, Central Operational Command.
Zhao Zhikai stood in front of the huge electronic sand table, propped up the edge of the table with his hands apart, and looked at the electronic simulation scene with a careful and indifferent gaze.
In order to achieve the best combat results, 26 divisions were transferred from the Eastern Front to the front and rear. Yuan Zhicheng also showed extremely high efficiency in this matter, and 20 divisions and regiments from the Northern Theater arrived at their designated positions as scheduled. They are not militia and reserve recruits who are randomly pulled out to make up the numbers, but real elite troops
Inexplicable mechanical failures of vehicles and illnesses of personnel completely disrupted the plan.
No one could have imagined that this would happen.
In the history of warfare from ancient times to the present, non-combat attrition caused by water and soil and disease has always been one of the important factors causing defeat. This situation has been comprehensively changed with the progress of science and technology and the evolution of the history of human civilization. However, the problem is so strange that the hundreds of thousands of troops besieging the new Guiyang base were so troubled by this inexplicable seizure symptoms that they could not move an inch.
Before deciding to launch a full-scale round-up and attack on Su Hao, Zhao Zhikai never dreamed that this situation would occur.
He knew that Su Hao was very strong, and the guy who suddenly jumped up and was even more dazzling than a big star in peacetime had Wang Qinian behind him and the entire Academy of Sciences as support. But so what? Su Hao is just one person after all, although he has a complete logistics base and a fully equipped group army, he can't confront the entire military department.
A total of forty-six divisions of combat units was only the first batch in the entire plan of annihilation. In order to make the plan more complete and avoid any shortcomings, he mobilized 15 elite divisions with strong combat effectiveness from the eastern front. These units are gradually being withdrawn from their existing positions and retreated to second-line bases for replenishment and recuperation. The vacant positions were taken over by thirty newly reorganized recruit divisions. There is no doubt that the casualty rate of the recruit division must be very large, but compared with the complete elimination of Su Hao and the regaining control of the 505th Group Army, the temporary sacrifice and effort are worth it.
A middle-aged staff officer in his thirties walked up to Zhao Zhikai and reported very respectfully: "Your Excellency, the second report on the analysis of blood samples from the Military Research Center has come out. ”
"Read" Zhao Zhikai commanded lightly, and his eyes never took his eyes off the electronic analog map.
"It's a virus that has never been detected before. It penetrates through the pores of the epidermis and enters the blood vessels and humoral circulatory system, causing neuropathic spasms and impaired sexual function blockade in a short period of time, thus triggering systemic uncomfortable symptoms. According to analysis, the virus has the ability to divide rapidly and self-replicate in a short time. It has an extremely short life cycle and divides very quickly after entering the human body. At this time, the biggest cause of epilepsy-like symptoms in infected patients is also ......"
"Enough"
Zhao Zhikai frowned and interrupted the staff officer's words very dissatisfied. His face quickly became gloomy, and his tone became more and more cold: "Let's get to the point." What is the response method of the research center? Are there any medications that can be used for restraint? ”
The middle-aged staff officer had apparently memorized the contents of the report by heart. He closed the Wen Jiàn clip in his hand and shook his head hesitantly: "No." ”
"Since there isn't, why do you come up with so many reports? The first, the second, and then the third, fourth...... Such reports have no value. The content is nothing more than a repetition of the conclusions of the previous study. Take a good look at these statements, which are almost a rehash of the previous report. A few random word changes, with a few minor changes, become what is known as the "second study". What are those people in the research center? Do they think that the military department is spending money to support them in vain? ”
The staff officer wanted to say something of consolation, but he couldn't do it.
Zhao Zhikai's anger is not groundless. This report is really not much different from the previous one, and the key words have hardly changed. The difference is that "cells" become "viruses", "90 percent concurrency" becomes "92 percent concurrency", and so on.
The front-line troops have not been able to advance, and the military department has repeatedly put pressure on the research center to come up with countermeasures as much as possible. The time given is too short, and the research center will naturally not be able to come up with any strong solutions. But the pressure from the military committee is so heavy that they can only repeatedly argue, and even the researchers pass the buck to each other.
This bureaucratic style originated in peacetime and has been criticized by countless people. Of course, this is also one of the reasons why Wang Qinian blocked the gate of the Academy of Sciences and never allowed any personnel from the military research center to enter. This also leads to the fact that the military department has been unable to confront the Academy of Sciences in scientific research, and is far behind.
It has become a habit for authoritative figures in research centers to submit reports in different levels by time and research stage. Many people were unimpressed by the order of the military department, believing that it was nothing more than a bluff. This time, however, is very different from the past, and someone has to pay for it.
