Chapter 187: Symbolism
The new tide of beasts was not as numerous as it had been when it first attacked, but it was even more desperate. Tens of thousands of war beasts crashed into the federal forces that had just rushed out of the sea of fire at the first impact, and the chariots on the periphery stopped one after another in the attack of the war beasts, and once they lost power on this kind of battlefield, it could only mean death.
Several heavy mechs fighting on the periphery were instantly crawling with strange beasts. The heavy armor of the mecha can ignore the bite of the alien beast for the time being, but in the 1.5 times gravity environment, the power of the mecha itself is already somewhat insufficient. In the group of alien beasts, there are many lizardbeasts. These little things easily burrow into the joints of the mecha joints, and naturally end up being crushed when the mecha moves. However, crushing them was equivalent to breaking a bottle of acid, and the incredibly corrosive acid instantly eroded the moving parts of the mechs, and then the mechs also collapsed.
In a dark-painted heavy mecha in the center of the Federation battle array, William's face was heavy, and he gave an order: "All break through, and the units with damaged mobility will ...... Queen. ”
One by one, intact vehicles began to break through under the cover of mechs, while units with damaged operational structures were left in place. Several immobile mechs simply took off their fuel tanks, roared and smashed into the herd of war beasts, and ignited with another shot, plunging themselves and their enemies into the flames.
Both attacking forces began to retreat, and even the beast tide could not stop the torrent of steel, and was rushed through a gap. However, most of the beast tides are non-stop, chasing after the tail. They will chase them all the way until the last one dies. Along the way, the Federation's fugitive forces don't know how much more damage they will take.
At this time, the fog had gradually lifted, revealing the battlefield not far away.
There are still tens of thousands of war beasts wandering, some continuing to attack immobile vehicles and mechs, while others begin to search for their next target. Many vehicles and mechs, although unable to move, are still desperately firing back. The car crew inside probably just wants to be able to pull a few more pads before they die.
As soon as the fog cleared, the war beasts discovered Base 2, and immediately a large number of war beasts abandoned the chariots around them and rushed to Base 2.
With two muffled thuds, two huge barrels flew into the sky, each dragging a long tail, spewing flames, staggering towards the beast tide before exploding.
In an instant, countless particles fell in the air, automatically floating towards the war beast below, sticking to the body and causing a tiny explosion, pushing the metal slice or hook deep into the body of the war beast. As soon as the beast moved, these tiny cuts cut the wound even bigger, causing intense pain.
However, the effect of the barrel's attack this time was not very ideal, and the two stacks only made half of the war beasts lose their combat power, and the rest still rushed towards Base 2.
Chu Jungui ordered in the communication channel: "All prepare for melee combat!"
Base 2 was badly damaged, it had already injured the core area, and even the power supply was in trouble. Now Chu Jungui can control only a few 20 weapon stations, and he can't stop so many war beasts at all.
In the sky, a messenger broke through the fog, folded its wings, and swooped towards Base 2 like an arrow, taking in all of its every move.
It swooped at full speed as it screamed and passed on orders, directing the herd of war beasts behind it to charge towards the missing parts of the base. Chu Jungui raised his hand to shoot it, but he didn't know that this messenger made a sharp turn and actually avoided this shot.
Most of the messengers hovered high in the air, or hid in the rear to command, and it was rare to see the messengers so brave. Let Chu Jun return to the capital unexpectedly missed.
The messenger's gaze swept over the gap in the base, and suddenly he saw a cloud of black gas!
The black gas was inconspicuous, and more than a dozen eyes were looking around, but several were still looking at the messenger. In an instant, the messenger and the black qi collided!
The messenger wailed and screamed terrible, and turned to run. It flew away at full speed as it let out a short, high-frequency scream. The group of war beasts below that was sprinting at full speed suddenly braked sharply, and suddenly people turned on their backs.
Many of the beasts were dizzy and confused, but the messenger's order was clear, so they put down the nearby base 2 and followed the messenger away.
"Is this the outside world? It's so chaotic. The black breath sighed, and then most of his eyes melted back into his body, and he burrowed back to the door through the large hole in the wall, returned to the glass cover, straightened the fallen cover, and then rested on his own food plate to eat.
With a bang, the door was kicked open, and Chu Jungui rushed in. Seeing that Xiao Kai was still staying in the glass cover, he was also stunned.
Xiao Kai floated two eyes and projected a line of words: "Is there something wrong? Don't disturb me for afternoon tea." ”
Chu Jungui's face was a little strange, but he didn't say anything, just said, "Okay, then you drink slowly, and I'll come back later." ”
"I don't send it. ”
Chu Jungui left the room and closed the door. Rose was also by Chu Jungui's side, she looked at the big hole in the wall, and was speechless: "I can enter and exit this hole, and I still need to lock the door?"
"Locking the door is a symbol, and when the door is locked, it won't run away. Chu Jungui threw down a sentence, beckoned the surviving soldiers, and rushed out of the base.
Rose looked at the big hole in the wall, and always felt that as long as she was not stupid, anyone could see this obvious exit, what was the point of locking the door or not? But Chu Jungui had already gone far, and she could only leave.
The battle ended abruptly, and the surviving fighters immediately began to search for their comrades.
Base 2 looks huge, in fact, most of it is no man's land, and the battle positions are well and solidly armoured, so the casualties are less than 30, which is still within the acceptable range. The bulk of the work is actually cleaning up the battlefield.
In total, more than 400 main combat vehicles and infantry troop carriers were dropped by federal forces on two battlefields, including nearly 40 mechs.
Most of the vehicles were abandoned, mainly because the transmission structure was destroyed and could not be moved, and the hull was mostly well preserved. In addition to the tanks and mechs that were directly destroyed by Base 2, many of the tanks and even the crew members of the mechs are still alive. Originally, they had to wait desperately for the beast to gnaw through the armor of the chariot before eating themselves.
The armor of the elite hoplites of the Coalition is excellent, and it is not easy for the beasts to nibble through it. Because of this, the crew members are particularly desperate.
It's just that this time their luck was good, most of the beast tide chased after the retreating main force, and the beast tide left behind was half wiped out by the three giant barrels, and then weakened by Chu Jungui for a round, and the last remnant retreated suddenly, retreating inexplicably.
Several engineering vehicles drove out of the No. 2 base, and Chu Jungui and others went out separately to rescue the surviving federal soldiers.
