Chapter 429: My Friend, Not Everyone in This World Is As Simple-Minded As You Are
"Grass..."
Looking at the messy military base in front of him, the man standing at the gate of the camp wearing bulletproof armor couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.
His name is Wag, and he belongs to the 9th Cadre Team of the 30,000 People, leading a team of 10 people, stationed at an outpost about 20 kilometers from here, and is responsible for monitoring the valley northwest of Camp 530 while guarding a relay signal tower.
An hour earlier, he had received information from the Ninth Cadre Team that Camp 53 had not routinely reported the security situation and had not responded to the communications from the command post, so he immediately took his men down to see if they had failed their communications equipment or had suffered some kind of accident.
Wag did not dare to hesitate, and immediately took three of Xiao Yong's good fighters, rode a three-wheeled diesel motorcycle, off-road for more than 20 kilometers, and went straight to Camp 53.
However, when he arrived at the military base, he found that it had long been in ruins; New Β· Anyone? β
He shouted at the top of his voice, but there was neither commotion nor response.
Wag held his rifle flat with a high degree of nervousness, and with a decisive swing of his fist, he carefully walked through the camp gate with three riflemen and went deep into the interior of the military base.
The street lamps on both sides of the road were all dark, and the power supply system here seemed to have been damaged, except for the burning barracks, and only a little thin moonlight remained.
Walking along the broken road, as they passed the area near the garage, everyone's faces were not very good-looking, blue and white.
The charred corpses lay crookedly, many huddled together, and they could no longer find their complete human form.
In the garage with the door open, all the tanks and trucks inside have been driven away, and the supplies inside have been emptied, and not even a wrench and screwdriver have been left behind.
Wag swallowed and led his riflemen to search in the direction of the command post. Soon they passed a checkpoint where there appeared to have been a heavy exchange of fire not long ago.
Whether it was the crumbling sandbag wall or the corpses covered with bloody holes, it was not difficult to see what ferocious fire had been encountered by the legionnaires who had been stationed here an hour before.
It's the same with the mutant mercenaries not far away.
The big guys had either their heads crushed or a large hole in their chests, and they had been pierced by some kind of large-caliber weapon, and they could barely find a complete corpse, and their deaths were extremely miserable.
Even the extremely resilient mutants can't stand it... Not to mention those ordinary people.
"Grandma's, I bet it's definitely not the guerrillas and the kingdom army doing it!" A rifleman looked around nervously and whispered a curse.
The other, looking a slightly younger rifleman, breathing a little heavily, looked around nervously and muttered something in a low voice. "Could it be someone from the Great Rift Valley?"
Listening to the whispers of the soldiers, Wag looked around with a solemn expression and replied succinctly.
ββ¦ We only reached an armistice with them at the beginning of the year, and we do not rule out the possibility that they will tear up the treaty, but it is not their style to go to war without declaring it. β
With his own men, Wag moved to the door of the command post.
The situation here is equally tragic, the tents and partitions of the nearby barracks are covered with dense bullet holes, and there are fifty corpses lying on the open space of less than fifty square meters, and all of them are Willantes with bulging noses.
Wag searched around the neighborhood but did not find the body of the god-captain Piman, until he found the problem in the command post and the adjacent anti-artillery bunker.
ββ¦β¦ The documents here are all emptied. β
Frowning slightly, Wag recalled what the chief had told him.
Camp 53 was at stake in a major plan, drawn up by General Griffin himself, and whether the whole war would end before the end of August.
Therefore, it is important to keep an eye on the situation at Camp 530.
Without hesitation, Wag reached out and took off the walkie-talkie hanging on his shoulder, pressed the button and said. β¦Β· Call Command, this is Outpost 151 Patrol, we've reached Camp 530, it's pretty bad here, I don't see a single person alive...... The body of the commander of the military base was also not seen, and it was suspected that he had been captured by unknown forces. β
"Including classified documents in the command post, munitions in a nearby warehouse, tanks in the garage...... The bandits who attacked here had evacuated almost everything they could. β
His eyes wandered around, and his gaze suddenly fell on the rows of extinguished street lamps, and the expression on his face gradually became unnatural.
For a moment, Wag suddenly thought of something, and his expression gradually became solemn.
"All the electronic equipment was paralyzed, including the street lights were all turned off, and it was pitch black in the military base, and I couldn't find the electronic devices that were still working."
"It sounds a bit unbelievable, but my gut tells me...... This is definitely not a simple power system failure. After a half-second pause, he took a deep breath and uttered his guess.
"Most likely it's EMP!"
Camp 530 was devastated.
The elite of the legions stationed there were almost completely wiped out.
Suspected of being hit by EMP!
The news was reported at various levels and soon reached the Legion's front-line headquarters in Oasis (9), waking a group of senior officers from their sleep.
Operational conference room.
Griffin stood erect in front of the strategic map with his hands behind his back, his vulture-like eyes narrowing dangerously, and the officers standing behind him looked at each other in silence, exchanging incredulity and surprise in their eyes.
Over the past month, their outposts and military bases have been attacked by Kingdom forces and guerrillas, but the Wastelanders who fought with burning sticks never won.
As today, the command did not learn about the destruction of a military base until after the end of the battle, and never before... Moreover, it was Camp 53 that was raided.
It's there!
The staff officer standing next to him took a deep breath, broke the silence in the conference room, and spoke.
"Our planes reconnoitred the area and found no trace of enemy troops, and the attackers, after stealing supplies, suspected to have taken refuge in a valley thirty kilometers northeast of Oasis (9). They must have built concealed fortifications there, and our planes didn't see anything. β
The atmosphere of silence was broken.
The surrounding officers also interjected into the topic. "According to the information fed back from the nearby outpost, the other side is suspected of using M weapons and preemptively destroyed the communication tower of the military base...... There are two possibilities, the Rift Valley intervened in the war, or the company increased its military presence in the province of Luoxia. β
"Didn't they build an aviation base in the area of Xizhou City in the River Valley Province? That's where people come from! "Possibly!"
Listening to the discussion of his subordinates, Griffin, who had his hands behind his back, did not speak.
Even more unacceptable to Griffin than the tragic loss of men, equipment, and supplies was the leakage of the battle plan he had drawn up last month.
Camp 53 is the logistical fulcrum for the next round of general offensive on the entire northern front, and he doesn't mind the casualties of the vassals' servants on the front line, but he has to carefully consider how many casualties it will take to gnaw the northern defense area of the Lion Kingdom without sufficient armor and supply support.
It's not just honey and lions, but also humps and golden lizards, and if the Falcon Kingdom is to conquer the entire province, they'll have to control casualties.
Otherwise...
What is gained is also quickly lost.
"It's a shame that our flawless plan was compromised, and if they can pinpoint Camp 53, they will know where our troops are on what day and hour."
Glancing around at the people in the camp, General Griffin glanced sharply at every face present and said word by word. "The strategic deployment of the northern front must be adjusted... It wasn't that hard, but I wondered what went wrong. "The silence in the room was eerily eeri, as if a needle could be heard on the ground.
Just when everyone was nervously tense, Griffin suddenly changed his mind and lightly exposed the topic.
"Of course, I believe in your loyalty, and the problem should be somewhere below. I need you to keep my eyes open and find out the inner ghost. β
Hearing this, all the officers finally breathed a sigh of relief, and their faces made expressions of relief, and they stood up and said. "Yes!"
"Yes! Sir! β
Looking at his men with their heads up, Griffin nodded, his gaze drifting back to the map hanging on the wall, lost in thought. EMP weapons.
That's obviously not the kingdom's equipment, with a high probability - no, it should be said that it must be the work of the enterprise!
According to the information registered by the Logistics Department, Camp 53 only received a batch of supplies from the Bugra Free State two days ago, indicating that the Rift Valley was not aware of the existence of this supply line, otherwise they would have organized their vassals to continue trading with the Legion in other ways.
Thinking of this, Griffin couldn't help but frown.
Didn't McClan brag?
Was the Iron Heart really killed by reinforcements from the company? If that's the case...
I'm afraid they're in a lot of trouble.
On the other side, when the front-line command was meeting overnight to formulate a battle plan, a desert-colored truck stopped at the door of the barracks where the headquarters was located.
Jumping out of the truck first, Colway glanced towards the door and saw the officers waiting there, his eyes lit up. "Fedir?! That's great! You're alive! β
Ferdil, an officer under General McLene, with the same rank as he was a centurion, but he was a little older than him, looking at the dusty Colway, Ferdil gave a military salute, walked up with an excited expression, and took his right hand.
"At the last critical moment, I followed General McLaan to the escape pod and narrowly escaped...... It's you, it's great to see you're alive! β
The two have a good relationship in private.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been waiting here.
Colway said with a smile on his face and an emotional tone.
"To be honest, I almost confessed to being in the desert, when the battlefield was in chaos, I couldn't even get ten people around me, and there were those barbarian pursuers behind me, and I wanted to give up at one point... Thanks to this brother. β
As he spoke, he pulled the battlefield guy who had just gotten out of the car next to him.
Fedir glanced at the tanned man, noticed that the bridge of his nose was flat, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise.
"Who is this?"
"Pangolins!"
Patting the wooden-looking man on the shoulder hard, Colway grinned at Ferdil.
"Don't look at him as a wastelander, he's not like those people, he's a brave fellow... Not only is his skill in hand, but his loyalty to the Legion is even more shameful to me. In order to make up enough money for the journey back, he was even willing to give up his military dignity to dig coal in the coal kiln. If he hadn't inspired me, I would have died in disgrace in the desert. β
Hearing the name Pangolin, Ferdir finally recognized the chief of the Hu Congjun Army, who was personally promoted by General McLene, who killed the Mother of Deathclaws by himself!
Along the way, McClan was talking about the head of the Mother of Deathclaws, but unfortunately he didn't take the collection with him. Unexpectedly, this very man actually followed, and also took Colway through the desert and all the way here. Save a superior centurion.
For Hu Cong, it can be regarded as a great achievement! Fedir looked at the battlefield guy and said in a solemn tone.
"Thank you for saving my friend and bringing him back safely...... I will definitely return this favor. "Don't thank me, that's what I'm supposed to do." The Warfielder expertly repeated what he had already said many times.
"We are all doing what we are supposed to do, but we should be rewarded for doing a particularly good job.34 I will report you to the credit. β
Ferdir smiled, patted the pangolin's shoulder, and then looked at Colway, who was also smiling, and continued.
"Come with me, the situation here has changed quite a lot, I'll take you to the demobilization registration first, and we'll talk about other things while we go..."
Colway needs to report first and get his military status reinstated, after all, he has been missing for so long, and he is already half dead on the roster.
The Legion will verify his identity through a number of specialized processes, not fake clones or androids or anything like that.
Made of "pangolins", it did not need to go through so many complicated procedures, and after the name was registered on the roster of the Hu Congjun, it was hung in the barracks of the logistics department.
It was the second half of the night, and the camp was darkened except for the lights at the outpost, and it was not easy for him to walk around. After waiting for a while, a logistics staff finally came over, took him to a nearby canteen, and arranged for the cook to make him a large table of supper.
Glancing enviously at the epaulettes on the shoulders of the pangolin gentleman, the logistics staff said respectfully.
"Lord Fedir has instructed me to entertain you, if you need anything, please just tell me, I can't get anything else at this time except for wine and women, and I can help you think of a way."
The battlefield guy looked at the face of this young man, the bridge of his nose did not have an obvious bulge, and the slightly deep eye sockets looked like the inhabitants of the desert, thinking that he should be the people of the Falcon Kingdom.
He was not polite when he was hungry all the way, and said bluntly.
"Help me prepare more meat, preferably beef, my meal may be a bit large, and the portion of the average person may not be enough." It doesn't cost anything anyway.
Wouldn't it be a loss to eat more! The young man laughed.
"You're the Awakened, don't worry! Mistress Colway has already told me to prepare food for three people! "It turns out that Colway has already said hello for himself.
Looking at the smile on the young man's face, the Battlefield also smiled embarrassedly. What I said...
It's like he's a rice bucket.
After a little waiting, the food was quickly served.
It includes a whole roasted beef shank and a basket of freshly baked loaves of bread topped with frosting and nuts. Not only that, but there is also a basket of fresh grapes, sweet red dates, and an unlimited supply of milk. Looking at this table of food that is so rich that people can't take their eyes off it, the battlefield guy can't help but sigh in his heart.
It is worthy of the canteen of the headquarters. This Nima is also so good!
"If that's not enough, I can arrange for the kitchen to prepare it for you," the young man bowed slightly, and said respectfully, "Please use it slowly." β
With the idea of "if you eat more, the enemy will eat less", the battlefield guy sat down at the long table and stuffed himself without any scruples.
Seeing this guy feasting so fragrantly, the young man standing on the side was hungry, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, trying not to look this way.
After a while, Colway, who had finally completed the formalities, also came to the cafeteria.
Glancing appreciatively at the pangolin munching on the beef leg, he didn't feel any rudeness in this eating appearance, pulled out a chair and sat down directly across from the table, and snapped his fingers at the guy next to him.
"Serve me a steak." "Yes sir."
The young man nodded respectfully, and quickly turned to the back kitchen. Wiping the silver knife, Colway said casually.
"I was delayed a little bit when I went through the formalities just now, but I didn't expect that as soon as we arrived here on the front foot, the back foot caught up with the big event." Hearing Coleway's words, the Warfield reflexively replied vaguely as he swallowed the food in his mouth.
"Camp 530 was attacked." "Camp 530? What is that? β
"The logistics hub of the troops on the northern front is the camp we passed by two days ago," Colway said helplessly, "what a coincidence... Just two days apart. If we are delayed on the road for two days, we will be afraid that we will stay there. β
Hearing this, the battlefield almost choked the food in his mouth, and in order to hold back his cough, his face turned red. Boy.
As soon as he sent the information on his front foot, the alliance followed closely and took his own information and took the military base. What a hell of pushing yourself into the fire pit!
However, Colway didn't suspect him, and he didn't even think about him.
After all, they had been in the same truck for the past two days, and no one could have imagined that this guy who slept like a pig could talk in his dreams.
"Will they suspect us?"
"We?" Hearing this hesitant question, Colway was slightly stunned. Then he shook his head with a smile as if he had heard some funny joke,
"How is it possible, we have just retreated to this area, and we don't even know the number of that camp, and how can we know the role that military base played in General Griffin's plan."
"Moreover, take 10,000 steps back, we only got there two days ago, and even if the information leaks immediately, our enemy will need time to verify the information, and then formulate a battle plan based on the verified information...... It takes a month to make a difference. β
Picking up the cup and taking a sip of hot cocoa, Colway moistened his throat and said with a slightly solemn expression. "To be honest, I'm a little suspicious of that guy named Adam."
"Adam?" The Warfield was stunned, "But what reason does he have to betray us?" β
"Sometimes, it doesn't take many reasons to do something, and I suspect not just him, but all the businessmen from the Bougla Free State."
Colway looked at the Battlefield and said in a gentle tone.
"My friend, not everyone in this world is as simple-minded as you."
"The merchants have no loyalty, they don't owe allegiance to anyone, their lives are nothing more than a pile of dung that life does not bring with them, they are just a shell without a soul. Today they can sell us spears for attacking, and tomorrow they may sell shields to our enemies. I'm grateful for his kindness, but I wouldn't be surprised if he betrayed us. β
The battlefield nodded weakly. "I see."
"Understood, I'm really worried that you'll be deceived by those people," Colway nodded appreciatively, paused for a moment to continue, "I said before that I was going to introduce you to General Griffin,
But if this happens, I'm afraid we'll have to wait. β
The Battlefield immediately said sensibly.
"It's okay, my lord, I'm not in a hurry, it's okay to be as late as you want." I can't introduce him just right.
He didn't want to see the guy at this time.
The Warfielder believes that no one in the Legion can be as naΓ―ve as the guy in front of him.
Especially Griffin, who is always called "Old Fox", is afraid that there is more bad water in his stomach than himself, and he is really afraid of being seen through at a glance.
"Are you not feeling well?" Colway looked at his good brother with concern, I feel that your face is not very good.
The Battlefield said in a daze.
"It's a little, maybe it's not adaptable. I've never been in such a dry place. Colway nodded and said in a reassuring tone.
"It's true in the desert, you have to adapt as soon as possible, there is still a long way to go, sooner or later we will go farther away." The Battlefield said with his spirits raised.
"I'll get used to it as soon as I can!" Vault 404.
Looking at the news of the official website forum and the first-hand battle report sent by the dead players, Chu Guang, who was leaning on the sofa and drinking ice Coke, was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
With his index finger dragging the wheel, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of appreciation. "It's worth the money!"
Whether it is the "Seagull" UAV or the "Cerberus" unmanned vehicle, its performance on the battlefield has exceeded expectations. I have to blow a wave, the things given by the "Fallen Empire" are really bullish!
Of course, thanks to the players' super performance, the death corps, which is famous for its battle damage rate, only killed more than thirty this time.
In normal times, this small casualty is enough for them to be a fraction of the casualties. "We have to take advantage of this battle to buy more goods!"
Including the R-36 "sanction" air-to-surface missiles used by the "Seagull" drone, one EMP missile directly turned the entire military base into a deaf and dumb one, and the unit price was only 250,000!
Then there is the white phosphorus bomb, which costs only 100,000 C, and its killing effect on soft targets is amazing.
Although this price is not a good price, it doesn't matter if it's spending the budget for military aid and not your own money anyway. To be honest, Chu Guang originally thought that the group of guys on the East Coast would taboo this cruel weapon, but he didn't expect that he was too worried. Leaning back on the sofa, Chu Guang looked at Xiao Qi sitting on the desk, and said with his eyebrows fluttering.
"Xiaoqi, contact Wu Mu, the representative of Changge Group, for me. Tell him, what "Seagull drones, I'm going to ten more!" β
"Okay! Master! He replied energetically, and Xiaoqi obediently contacted the seller.
Chu Guang continued to browse the circle forum and found that his "pangolin" had just been launched, so he clicked on the post of this benevolent brother Gangshui. Battlefield Atmosphere Group: "it!" You guys are very good, you just hit me as soon as my front foot left! Irena: "Is your identity revealed?" Exposed, I asked the mole to draw a book for you. (funny) "Canyon on the run: "Fuck off!" I don't draw that kind of book! β
Battlefield Atmosphere Group: "Expose a hammer!" Fortunately, Lao Tzu was witty and fooled the past, next time you take it easy, and wait for me to go farther and then blow it up! By the way, the 53rd camp you bombed seems to be the logistics hub of the northern front of the legion...... The Legion's northern offensive had to be postponed because of the revelation of the battle plan, which I had just heard from Corway. β
Quit smoking: "it! Awesome! Night Ten: "666!" β
Commander Izumi: "Hahaha, actually, I think the timing of this operation is quite good. Although the timing is a bit coincidental, it is precisely because of this that you are not easy to be suspected. β
Fang Chang: "+1, the more important the strategic goal, the more careful planning is required, otherwise it is easy to go wrong." β
Edge paddling: "Hey, don't talk about it, the friendly forces in charge of the feint attack got the time zone wrong this time, and the action was a full hour in advance!" Thanks to us rushing over in time, if we are a few minutes slower, I am afraid that we will be wiped out! β
Battlefield Atmosphere Group: ", is that real?" β
Edge paddling: "That's not it, the three wheels of the construction site guy are almost smoking!" The construction site boy and the brick: "MMP! (Angry)"
Drum shampoo: "That's it!" It's so special! Next time, it's a good car for the whole battery! β
Edge paddling: "Tu! Can this be said to be my picking? You guys should think about the actual situation! It's all sand as far as the eye can see, where can I give you a charging bottle? β
The commander of the Death Corps reasoned with the cattle of the regiment's forces. Several players in the intelligence department opened a new post and boasted about it with other players.
Especially the big eyes of debt.
operated the "Seagull" drone to catch French fries in the sky, but he was so cool that he was about to blow the power of the drone into the sky.
The only fly in the ointment is that the bomb load is too small. Before he could get enough of it, he ran out of bullets.
In any case, seeing that the "pangolin" was fine, Chu Guang finally put his mind at ease.
The reason why he acted so hastily was to prevent this guy from being suspected, but now it seems that what he feared has not happened.
More than 800 kilometers.
The pigeons have to fly for a day.
There are no large-scale communication base stations or communication satellites, and it takes two days to complete the exchange of intelligence and formulate a combat plan.
After confirming the safety of the intelligence officer, Chu Guang did not rush to continue to issue new missions to him, but let him lurk. He intends to use this chess piece in key places.
It's better to have a chance to take away those big noses in waves.
"Now is not the time."
1 second to remember:
