Chapter 358: Difficult

After retreating for dozens of kilometers in one breath, Chu Jungui stopped and quickly inspected the troops. At the moment, he had less than 10 chariots left in his possession, and several others were parked in the ark, waiting to be repaired. The casualties are okay, just over 100, which is completely acceptable.

Scan data from the Ark has also been sent back, with more than 40% overall damage, fortunately mostly concentrated on the armor walls. If it weren't for the fact that the Ark had a full 8 anti-gravity engines that could support the unreasonably thick armor walls, it would have been beaten to scrap metal a long time ago.

On average, three-quarters of the ark's armor walls were slashed, but only two were pierced. Fortunately, the ammunition was basically empty when it was pierced, and there was no further damage. Most of the turrets were lost, and only three or four were still usable. Most of the internal facilities have been preserved, the power furnace and engine are basically intact, only the construction machine and the refining furnace have been damaged twice.

Chu Jungui quickly assessed the damage repair, and it took about a day to rebuild the internal equipment and restore production capacity. In three days, the ark will be completely restored. It's just that during these days, all tank production repairs will come to a standstill.

It's just that most of the driving wheels of the ark were damaged, and they could only walk on the wheels.

If you use the hub, you can use the wheel, anyway, the production capacity is enough, and if it is broken, it will be rebuilt. Chu Jungui immediately set off and led his troops to the Doomsday Shadow Fortress.

Billowing smoke can be seen dozens of kilometers away, and when you get closer, the smoke covers the sky.

Chu Jungui no longer had any hope, the entire shadow of the doomsday was burning, and the raging fire spread its teeth and claws, as if it was going to swallow everything. The column of smoke, which is several kilometers in diameter, shows no sign of abating, let alone how long it will burn.

After being stunned for a moment, Chu Jun drove the ark to the fortress. The 2,000 people left behind in the fortress don't know how many survivors there are, and one can be saved at this time.

Unexpectedly, when approaching, the gate of the fortress actually opened!

Chu Jun was stunned, but he didn't expect the fortress to still be running. He immediately entered the fortress and jumped off the ark.

Several officers hurried over and said, "General Wilson is directing the fire over there, and we will take you there." ”

Chu Jungui nodded, and followed the officers to the turret next to the outer wall of the fortress. Wilson was standing here, constantly coordinating personnel through his personal terminal to put out the fire.

"How's the situation?" asked Chu Jungui.

"It's almost under control, but our supply warehouse can't be saved. ”

Chu Jungui looked in the direction of Wilson's finger, only to see that the warehouse was still spewing fire, and the billowing smoke formed a huge column of smoke that went straight to the sky. Eighty or ninety percent of the smoke from the entire fortress came from the material warehouse.

Hundreds of rescuers were moving the wounded, and the fighters fighting the fire were unable to get close to the warehouse, so they blew up the building connected to the warehouse, cutting off the fire and quickly erecting a new wall.

Seeing that the fire no longer continued to expand, Chu Jungui was a little relieved. Wilson's face was still solemn, and he said, "It's okay if there is no explosion, but I'm afraid of ......."

Chu Jungui pointed to those extraordinarily brightly colored flames and said, "Don't worry, the explosives in the inventory have already burned." ”

In addition to hoarding a large amount of raw materials in the warehouse, there is also biomass gunpowder, fortunately, it is quite flammable but the power is ordinary, so it turns into a burst of fire, although everything in the warehouse will be reduced to nothing, but it avoids greater harm. It is precisely because the power is not enough that additional charges are required, so the keyboard and mouse series have relatively exaggerated calibers.

The biomass gunpowder was developed and improved by Chu Jungui, and it is very familiar, and you can know that it is it when you look at the color and shape of the flame.

Chu Jungui looked around again. The surface base inside the fortress was already in shambles, and the command building was even less than a third. Most of the surface buildings are heavily damaged, but areas covered by heavy armor are relatively better.

Almost half of the roof of the factory area has been removed, and it is conceivable that the damage must have been severe. Chu Jungui swept it at a glance, and the people who ran, the wounded, and the corpses he saw were automatically counted. About 1,500 survivors were seen, of whom nearly half were wounded. Considering that there are still some people stationed in the turrets and battle positions, the actual survivors should be closer to 2000. That's pretty good results.

By this time, Wilson had already arranged all the work and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu Jungui asked while trying to connect with Xinghuo, "What happened?"

"They didn't have troops coming, they just came with missiles. Wilson pointed down, only to see a missile that had not exploded being stuck diagonally on the ground. Several engineers were carefully hoisting it out and transporting it out of the fortress.

"Are there a lot of missiles?" Chu Jungui was surprised.

"Very much, about 100 of them, mixed types of bombs, there are high-explosive shells, there are anti-personnel bombs, there are concussion bombs specifically for buildings. Judging by the degree of dispersion of the missiles, the launch area is about 40 to 50 kilometers away from us. The range of such missiles is generally 500 kilometers, that is, they are fired at close range to ensure that the missile hits. "Wilson knows the performance of all kinds of federal missiles well, and he can judge the process with a little terminal data.

When Chu Jungui heard this, he understood what had happened. It seems that the opponent carried a large number of missiles, and after dragging himself with a small detachment, he rushed to the launch position near the shadow of doom at full speed, severely damaged the fortress with a round of missiles, and then set up an ambush, waiting for himself to take the bait.

Chu Jungui pursued eagerly, not wanting to leave a time window for the opponent to attack the fortress, but he didn't expect the opponent to actually win the time window by means of missile saturation attack, not only attacking the fortress, but also ambushing himself.

It's just that Gan Bo didn't expect that in a short period of time, Chu Jungui actually made such a monster as the Ark, and after a round of hard-fought battles, he also suffered heavy losses, and he urgently needed to rest, so he had to retreat, and he didn't care to see if the shadow of doom still existed.

However, based on the raw data of the fortress given by the Lancers, as well as the current state of the fortress that was verified by their own eyes during the last attack, only half the number of missiles in the Federation's evaluation system is enough to raze the Doomsday Shadow to the ground, not to mention the destruction of the Cambrian Mastermind during the first attack. A base without a mastermind is a walking dead without a soul.

To be on the safe side, Gamble also doubled the number of missiles. With this level of attack, there may be a few survivors in the ruins, after all, some warframes are exceptionally strong in the face of area attacks. If there are still people alive, then let them play the alien version of Doom Survival, which is still hell difficulty. Before leaving, Gamble thought that he was finally in a happier mood.

The only fly in the ointment is that Chu Jungui is still alive. Gamble instantly felt that he had no appetite for dinner.

Upon returning to base, Gamble jumped out of the mech and stood still, unaware of what he was thinking. It wasn't until his subordinates cautiously came to remind him that he woke up like a dream.

"Bring William to my office and I'm going to talk to him. Gamble said suddenly.

A moment later, William walked into Camp's office, sat down across from him, and before Gamble could speak, he said, "If you're all right, I'll go." There are still a lot of supplies in the warehouse that need to be counted. ”

Gamble said calmly, "The shadow of doom is no longer there, and I'm going to go too." ”

William was taken aback, "Isn't this the right time to accomplish all the feats?"

"Perhaps, but defeating the shadow of doom is also a feat. This merit is a bit unreasonable, but I can also find a way to fight for the position of general. ”

William still found it incomprehensible, thought for a moment, and said, "You just said that you knocked out the shadow of doom......"

"Yes, only the shadow of doom. "Gamble was honest.

William immediately understood, the shadow of doom was gone, but the guy was still there.

Gamble unbuttoned one of his collars and said, "I'm leaving, how about you?"

William immediately said, "I'm going too!, why not?"

The two reached a tacit understanding in an instant. As for the mess over here, leave it to the next unlucky one!

"It's really difficult!" In the shadow of the end of the world, Chu Jungui, who was reviewing the battle, also sighed deeply. These guys on the other side have been wrestling with themselves for so long and have not been defeated, and they are really rare talents.
