In the town of Silicon River, next to the exit of the town towards the PN01 ladder behind it, there is a small square with a small area, which was originally a place for large gatherings for the residents of this town. At this moment, this small square, which is still finished, is crowded with groups of soldiers of the reinforced regiment who have just been withdrawn from the line of fire, and more than a dozen medical transport planes are opening the belly hatches, constantly loading the withdrawn personnel and equipment.

A few hours ago, this reinforced regiment belonging to the 25th Armored Division of the 89th Group Army, which was originally fighting to the death with a new wave of Alien Attack Troops, suddenly received an urgent order from the division headquarters that the regiment must withdraw from its positions before dark and urgently rush to the military passage on the PN01 ladder to assemble and stand by.

After receiving the order, Hou Daming, the commander of the hot-tempered reinforced regiment, almost didn't quarrel with the commander of the armored division. You must know that at this moment, the thousands of officers and soldiers of the reinforced regiment are fighting with the insects that have invaded the town. All the defensive lines prepared by the reinforced regiment have been swept away by the insects. Almost all combat units such as battalions, companies, platoons, etc., were divided by the Alien Insect Unit, which had the advantage in strength. The two sides no longer have the slightest front to speak of, it can only be said that the warriors of the reinforced regiment have been solidly killed with the insects.

In such a chaotic situation, it is undoubtedly quite dangerous to suddenly withdraw all the troops that are fighting fiercely from the line of fire. If the insects that invaded the town noticed the withdrawal of the reinforcements, they would surely bite the reinforcements from behind. In that case, at least the casualties of each unit will be heavy, and at worst, the entire reinforced regiment may be eaten by the army of insects.

Because of this, Hou Daming was angry and wanted to "disobey". However, when the commander of the armored division blushed and said "If you want your men to die under the fire of your own people, then you will die in Silicon Chuan Town", Hou Daming suddenly felt a thrill in his heart, and suddenly realized something terrible.

Therefore, although Hou Daming was reluctant to give the order to retreat, he still hesitated to prepare to activate the long-range communication equipment when he arrived at Zuihou, and notified the various units that were fighting against the insects to evacuate their positions. However, just at this moment, a tunnel worm suddenly appeared at the regimental headquarters and sent a wave of ground troops with strong attack power.

If it weren't for the desperate fight of the regimental guard platoon, Hou Daming, who was seriously injured, might have been torn to pieces by the insects.

At this moment, Hou Daming, who was lying on a simple stretcher, was struggling to stand up, leaning on the shoulders of a marine, and shouted hoarsely at the soldiers of the reinforced regiment who entered the transport plane: "Little rabbit cubs, hurry up for Lao Tzu!" Damn, be careful not to be stabbed in the ass by those dog-day brutes! A second person to Lao Tzu frustrated, rest assured, Lao Tzu will definitely bring you back with you! ”

was calling, and a piercing sound of sudden braking suddenly drilled into Hou Daming's ears. As soon as he turned around, he saw that the communications soldiers he had sent out to inform the first battalion were running over in disgrace.

"You, why didn't you come back now? What's wrong? Didn't Zhao Tieniao notify them? Hou Daming's face sank, regardless of the injuries on his body, he sat up from the stretcher abruptly and asked loudly.

Among the five battalions of the reinforced regimental headquarters, the first battalion where Zhao Jiakun was located was the most front, and it was also the most critical core position in the entire Sichuan blockade battle. Therefore, there is no doubt that the number of insects in the vicinity of the first battalion is definitely much higher than that of the other departments. Looking at the conspicuous liquid that was faintly left on the armor of the communication soldier named Lazi, Hou Daming vaguely guessed something, and a trace of unpleasant premonition involuntarily passed through his heart.

"Through, through, notice has arrived, Commander!" However, this time, Hou Daming's sixth sense, which he has always been proud of, miscalculated, and the spicy man did notify Zhao Jiakun.

"Really? What about the damn Zhao Tieniao? Why hasn't Lao Tzu picked up a battalion of soldiers until now? Hou Daming frowned, turned around and hurriedly glanced at the evacuated marines in the square, and then asked.

Although the soldiers of the reinforced regiment wear exactly the same marine armor, in order to facilitate the identification of friendly forces on the battlefield, the soldiers of each regiment or battalion will usually paint some unique patterns on their armor in conspicuous places. This practice is almost a conventional way of identification for all close-ground combat units in the entire theater, and it is very popular among front-line officers and men.

The soldiers of the reinforced regiment under Hou Daming have a unique identification pattern on their armor that is a double-headed eagle. However, Zhao Jiakun, who was the battalion commander, asked his subordinates to add a pattern of "mecha riding a chariot" above the double-headed eagle pattern. This move once made Hou Daming very angry, and he almost fell out with Zhao Jiakun because of it. It is precisely because of this that even among thousands of troops, Zhao Jiakun's first battalion is very easy to identify.

"Regiment, regimental commander!" The communication soldier swallowed his saliva fiercely, straightened out the stuffiness in his chest, and then reported to Hou Daming: "All companies of the first battalion have received orders and are fighting and retreating to this side. It is estimated that at the latest, in half an hour, they will all be able to come over! It's just ......"

"But what? Say! Seeing that the spicy man was a little hesitant when he said Zuihou, Hou Daming frowned, his tone couldn't help but change, and he shouted coldly.

"Regiment Commander, Battalion Commander Zhao said that he would bring some people to rescue the refugees who were besieged by alien insects, so he may not be able to prioritize the evacuation order of the regiment headquarters!" The spicy man was drunk by Hou Daming, and hurriedly reported truthfully.

"Zhao Tieniao, who is a dog, always likes to give Lao Tzu a moth at a critical time!" Hou Daming's expression stiffened when he heard this, and he complained angrily.

"Commander, what should we do now?" Razi glanced back at the soldiers of the battalions and companies who were boarding the plane in the small square, and asked with a worried expression: "The other battalions have already withdrawn from their positions, and it is estimated that it won't be long before those alien bugs will be killed here, and we don't have much time!" ”

"Do you need your little bunny?" Hou Daming glanced sideways, waved his hand and commanded the little communication soldier in front of him: "You quickly follow the rest of the regiment headquarters to retreat to the ladder first, tell the deputy regiment commander and other staff officers, and I will arrive later!" ”

"Huh? Commander, don't you evacuate with us? Razi asked in a stunned voice.

"What the fuck are you talking about? Just execute the order! Hou Daming scolded impatiently, and the spicy man turned around and left.

"You go and tell the commander of the third battalion who is in charge of blocking the mission, and ask him to leave a reinforced platoon for Lao Tzu. The rest of the third battalion immediately withdrew from the blocking position! A moment later, watching the medical transport plane in which the regimental personnel were flying away from the square with a roar, Hou Daming turned around and frowned at a second lieutenant staff officer guarding the stretcher, and ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes, Captain!" Without the slightest hesitation, the staff officer answered, turned around and hurried towards the blocking position of the third battalion on the periphery of the square. The second lieutenant, who was familiar with Hou Daming's temperament, knew that their regiment commander had decided to stay here nine times out of ten and held out until all the soldiers of each reinforced regiment were evacuated.

Half an hour later, the other units of the reinforced regiment had all evacuated the town by transport planes, and the companies and platoons under the first battalion also rushed to the small square one after another. Although the company and platoon commanders of the first battalion insisted on waiting for their battalion commander to arrive before they were willing to evacuate together, the officers and men of the first battalion barely boarded the evacuated transport plane under the kicking and kicking of Hou Daming.

When I arrived in Zuihou, I saw that the sky was gradually darkening, and the entire Silicon River Town could no longer hear a single shot except for the creepy roars of the insects. In the small square that was used as an evacuation point by the reinforced regiment, only Zuihou was left with a medical transport plane waiting to be evacuated.

A cold wind blew through the roars of the insects, which actually made the marines guarding near the transport plane shudder, as if among the ruins and broken walls on the periphery of the square, there was a pair of green and gloomy beast eyes, watching the marines.

Hou Daming, who was originally seriously injured, did not continue to lie on the stretcher, but asked people to carry himself behind a pile of discarded wooden boxes and command the dozens of marines who were on the task of breaking the post. Because the square was too large, Hou Daming did not let the team members disperse to the blocking position on the periphery of the square, but ordered all the team members to gather near a medical transport plane in Zuihou, and use the existing terrain to hold on to the headquarters of Zhao Jiakun's first battalion to arrive at the evacuation site.

"Haven't you contacted the last battalion headquarters yet?" Hou Daming looked up at the sky, and asked the second lieutenant staff officer on the side in a deep voice.

The second lieutenant staff officer was using a long-distance communication terminal left behind by the headquarters of the third battalion to try to contact Zhao Jiakun and others. Hearing Hou Daming's inquiry, the second lieutenant raised his head and shook his head with a wry smile, indicating that he still couldn't contact Zhao Jiakun and the others.

"Regiment Commander, Battalion Commander Zhao, will they ......" Seeing Hou Daming's brows furrowed tightly, the second lieutenant asked in a low voice tactfully.

"Nope! With my understanding of Zhao Tieniao, he would never be torn off by these alien bugs so easily! Hou Daming shook his head and categorically denied it, then sighed lightly and said: "Do you know that Camp Chief Zhao Weishenme has a nickname, called Iron Bird?" ”

"I don't know!" The young second lieutenant had just come to strengthen the regiment, and naturally he was not very clear about the story of a veteran of the reinforced regiment like Zhao Jiakun.

"Then have you heard of a legendary big-headed soldier named Haoyi?" Hou Daming continued to ask.

"Haoyi! Of course I've heard of it! That guy who is full of legendary stories, does it still have anything to do with our Battalion Commander Zhao? From Hou Daming's expression, the second lieutenant vaguely caught something and asked excitedly.

"Hehe, you've probably heard the earth-shattering story of that perverted big-headed soldier Haoyi who once broke into the rebels' ammunition depot at night during the Solomi Counterinsurgency Campaign, right?" Hou Daming smiled, looked up slightly at the sky that was still surrounded by thick gunsmoke, and said with great emotion: "Battalion Commander Zhao personally followed that perverted big-headed soldier Hao Yi to break into the rebel ammunition depot vigorously, and survived that weird explosion. Later, Battalion Commander Zhao followed the perverted big-headed soldier to hijack the rebel transport plane, but was beaten down by his own missiles. What is amazing is that although Battalion Commander Zhao was seriously injured, he miraculously survived again! Therefore, people who knew him gave him the nickname "Zhao Tieniao". It means that he is like an iron bird, he can't be killed! ”

"Buzz ......" Just as the second lieutenant and other marines beside Hou Daming pricked up their ears and listened to the legendary story about Zhao Jiakun, a low roar of a locomotive engine suddenly broke into the square.

"Look at the Captain! It's Camp Commander Zhao and them! The second lieutenant staff officer, who heard the movement, hurriedly picked up the electronic telescope at hand, and saw Zhao Jiakun with three armed off-road locomotives, whistling into the small square......
