In the southern part of Akaal County, a massive encounter broke out in the wilderness.

On one side was the 370,000 men of the Southern Army led by Baldwin, and on the other side was the 1st Mechanized Infantry Division of the Golden Gallen Harbor, plus two armored regiments from the LTTE and the Panthers.

The latter's goal was to advance to the area around the bend of the Yongliu River and cut off the retreat of the 360,000th Army of the Southern Army, while the former's goal was naturally to prevent the latter from attacking the rear of friendly forces.

As soon as the two sides came into contact, a fierce exchange of fire broke out.

Two "Chimera" armored vehicles were the first to launch the "Pigeon" missile, and successively exploded a "Conqueror" No. 5 light tank and a "Beast" wheeled infantry vehicle.

The 370,000 troops of the Southern Army did not show weakness, and two light armored teams quickly stepped forward and destroyed three "Chimera" armored vehicles of the Golden Gallon Port Infantry Division in succession.

Seeing that the armored team of the 370,000 troops was about to eat the forward troops of the 1st Mechanized Infantry Division of Jingallen Harbor, a torrent of steel composed of hundreds of "Conqueror 10" tanks suddenly broke into the position of the Southern Army!

Before the two lightly armored teams could recover their senses, the whistling tank shells pierced through the side armor and exploded into a mass of burning scrap metal in the mud.

"Forward !!" The commander of the LTTE armored regiment roared loudly in the communication channel and led his men to break through the flank position of the 370,000th brigade.

Seeing their own tanks crashing into them, the 370,000-strong Velante soldiers were dumbfounded.

The conquistadors are clearly their tanks.

It's good to say that the alliance can get one or two, why did they come up with two tanks of 1,000 people?!

In the face of the limited anti-tank firepower of the Southern Army, the Conqueror No. 10 tank was in a no-man's land, chasing the former's infantry and reconnaissance vehicles and fleeing all over the mountains!

Looking at the battle damage reported by the front-line officers, Baldwin, who was sitting in command, only felt that blood was dripping from his heart.

The two lightly armored teams sent just now are his descendants, and they are also the elite under his command!

Seeing that the opposite side was the natives of Borneo Province, he wanted to let his people go up and pick up two medals, but he didn't expect that two armored thousand-man teams would suddenly come out on the opposite side!

In just a few minutes, he had already blown up twenty "Beast" wheeled infantry vehicles, as well as five "Greyhounds" and two armored personnel carriers.

Seeing that the two lightly armored teams were about to be crushed, he did not hesitate to grab the communicator and shouted loudly in an almost roaring voice.

"Light armor retreat! The 1,000th team is on top! Interrupt their tracks for me! ”

"The support team is ready to fire! With armor-piercing grenades! Aim at the tanks with broken tracks! ”

With the order given, the two lightly armored teams of the 370,000 men quickly moved to the rear, and in their place columns of Willant soldiers with anti-tank weapons rushed forward.

Only the undulating ridges of the wilderness could be used as limited shelter.

They moved along the edge of the ridge and returned fire with anti-tank bazookas, covering the retreat of their lightly armored units.

At the same time, more than 1,000 Glorious Army soldiers also grabbed improvised anti-tank weapons and launched a suicidal assault on the armored regiment of the LTTE.

The sound of shouting and killing was heard all over the mountain, but the haphazard impact hit the oncoming 37mm fragmentation bullets.

The flames of the explosion bloomed across the field, along with the flying flesh and fragments.

The clone soldier died like a piece of wheat cut down in an instant, but at the urging of the Ten, he had to stare forward with wide eyes.

The fierce fighting began.

The 1st Mechanized Infantry Division of Port Goldgallen, which had been covered by friendly forces, immediately stopped retreating.

The 20 "Chimera" armored vehicles that took the lead quickly turned their heads to keep up with the rhythm of the advance of the LTTE armored units, using 37mm guns to help the tanks deal with the approaching infantry, and at the same time firing "Pigeon" missiles to chase down the fleeing "Conqueror V" light tank.

On the other hand, the 370,000th Brigade of the Southern Army is in a bitter battle at the moment.

Whether it's the recoilless guns in the hands of the anti-tank team or the Honorable clone soldiers charging with anti-tank grenades and Iron Fist bazookas, there is nothing they can do when it comes to the Conqueror Ten Heavy Tan.

The gap armor was almost absolute against armor-piercing shells, and the small water pipe of the Conqueror V could not even scrape off a layer of the skin of the Conqueror X, at most it could break the latter's tracks.

A long time ago, the Coalition conducted an experiment in which two Conqueror 10 tanks were fired at each other, and as a result, all the ammunition was exhausted, and neither of them could help each other.

In terms of weapon design ideas, the Legion and the South China Sea Alliance seem to be two diametrically opposed extremes.

The idea of the latter is to check and balance each other, while the former never seems to have considered the situation of fighting with his own people.

In that sense alone, the people of Willant are indeed united.

However, when the backstab occurs, this solidarity unexpectedly becomes a burden.

These Conqueror 10 tanks were sold by the Eastern Legion to the warlords of Huzhou and Leopard through the arms dealers of the Dead Coast!

The Golden Gallen Harbor First Mechanized Infantry Division quickly gained the upper hand, but their opponent was not a vegetarian after all.

The LTTE's armored regiment rushed forward for a while, and the offensive quickly came to a standstill.

More than a dozen tanks sank into the mud due to their heavy weight, and nearly five tanks had their tracks broken.

The area around Akale County is a floodplain, with soft and sandy soil, which coincides with the recent rainy season, and it has rained a lot for several days, resulting in even more muddy soil.

Seeing that the tanks were stuck in the wilderness, Captain Baldwin immediately ordered the self-propelled guns to fire.

A 200-millimeter armor-piercing grenade hit the field full of tanks, according to the infantry report.

A Conqueror Ten soon won the lottery.

An armor-piercing grenade was fired in the center of the turret, and the top-down attack poured directly into the cabin.

Smoke rose from the explosion, along with the shells that had been blown up by the bomb racks.

The crew sitting in the tank was killed instantly, and not even a single intact body could be found.

Seeing the tragic situation of the friendly troops, the crew members who were stuck in the mud and could not move could only be forced to abandon the car and flee.

"Smash them to smithereens! Hit me hard! Looking at the bharatid fleeing Bharats, Baldwin's eyes were scarlet and his face was full of sinister smiles.

Silly!

Artillery is the trump card of the Southern Army!

The invincibility of the Conqueror Ten is not invincibility in the absolute sense, but in a relative sense.

It's not like they're completely helpless against Conqueror Ten!

The noise of artillery fire continued, and in the blink of an eye, another turret of Conqueror Ten flew into the sky.

However, Baldwin did not be complacent for long, and the noise of artillery in the distance was suddenly mixed with several deafening explosions.

It seems that it was not the sound of self-propelled guns firing, but the sound of shells exploding!

Baldwin's sinister smile gradually froze on his face, especially when he saw a wisp of smoke rising from the artillery position, and his heart chuckled even more.

"!"

With an angry curse in his mouth, he immediately grabbed the communicator and turned to the support team.

"What happened to the explosion just now?! What's going on over there?! ”

Almost as soon as his words fell, a series of denser explosions came from the direction of the artillery position, and this time the smoke was no longer a wisp, but a whole piece!

Even if he was sluggish, he reacted, and the explosion just now was a calibrated artillery bombardment.

And the next round is the real guy!

The cacophony of electricity and the roaring sound of cannon came from the communication channel, and the commander of the support team yelled in embarrassment.

"We were shelled! It was the artillery position of the 360,000th brigade that called! Damn, let them cease fire! ”

"Team 360,000?!"

Baldwin was stunned for a moment, his mind went blank, countless possibilities flashed through his mind, and finally there was only one possibility left.

The artillery positions of friendly forces were ended!

The fifty-two "Fireball" self-propelled guns, which were supposed to be aimed at their enemies, were aimed at them at this moment!

Cold sweat slid down Baldwin's forehead, and it took him only three seconds to make his final decision, holding the communicator and yelling loudly.

"The Glorious Army continues to hold back the enemy army! Give me to drag them at all costs!! ”

"The rest of the ministries retreated westward! We regroup in southern Ridpur County! ”

As the order to retreat was given, the Willant troops, who were engaged in an exchange of fire with the 1st Mechanized Infantry Division at Port of Golden Gallen, withdrew from the battlefield one after another.

Even though many of the Thousand Men still had a clear advantage, they did not hesitate to withdraw, and instead let the clones charge.

The latter was quickly annihilated, and the Willantes, taking advantage of the time the latter had gained, quickly boarded the armored personnel carrier.

Due to the haste of their retreat, they didn't even have time to pick up the bodies of their fallen allies, leaving them on the battlefield along with the dropped equipment.

One by one, armored personnel carriers quickly withdrew from the battlefield, and the entire front more than ten kilometers wide was abandoned......

Although it is a bit embarrassing, I have to admit that Baldwin did make a smart decision.

For not long after they began to retreat, the burning white phosphorus landed on their positions, and was drenched from north to south.

After capturing the self-propelled guns, Jocal's subordinates showed no mercy and directly used the most ruthless work.

If they had gone a minute too late, the Welantes who were lying behind the ridges would have to roll in the flames and muddy water for their lives......

Looking at the boiling sea of fire and the charred corpses, the eyes of the soldiers of Golden Gallen Harbor lying behind the ridge of the field rose with surprise.

"The Willant...... Retreated. ”

Several of the Goldgallen Harbor soldiers looked at each other, and they all saw incredible looks on each other's faces.

"......"

A young man swallowed and muttered in a low voice.

“…… We actually won. ”

All couldn't believe it was true.

Whether it was the soldiers at the front line or the officers commanding in the rear, their faces were full of surprise.

Before they set foot on the battlefield, they never thought that they would be able to defeat the Legion on a frontal battlefield, but they didn't expect to actually win.

When the flames were extinguished, one of the veterans tentatively stood up and groped forward, only to find that there was no sign of the Willantes on the other side, only some discarded equipment and unburned corpses.

Unable to contain the excitement in his heart, he raised the rifle in his hand, tore open his throat and yelled.

"Victory !!"

The shouts of excitement soon converged into shouts all over the mountains.

"Won !!"

"Oooooooooo!!oo

At the same time, the faces of the Willant soldiers who were in armored personnel carriers were full of humiliation.

They actually lost to a group of natives!

"......"

A Willant soldier slammed his fist into the knee pad with a muffled thud.

The soldiers sitting next to him were also silent, their heavy faces expressionless.

Baldwin was the same in the command car, but the reason for his heavy face was not because of a momentary defeat, but because he found that he could no longer contact the friendly army next door.

From the moment of the shelling, he was trying to get in touch with Captain Woolfwan, but could not get in touch with anything.

"Damn it!"

He slammed the communicator against the table, and his gloomy face became even more gloomy.

Sitting next to him, the adjutant said in a heavy tone.

"The 360,000th team is afraid that there will be more than one luck...... At worst, I'm afraid that the command will be terminated now. ”

"What is that idiot doing!"

Baldwin cursed, then looked at the looming figure in the sky in the distance.

Actually suffered a defeat under the nose of the steel airship! What a disgrace to the face of the legion!

It's better to kill yourself!

……

As Baldwin expected, the situation of the 360,000 team is indeed not optimistic.

First of all, on the side of the support troops, fifty-two self-propelled guns had just adjusted their firing and were ready to support them in the battle, when they were disarmed by the Burning Corps that was close to them.

It was the most humiliating battle, and the Alliance soldiers in power armor directly killed Commander Tolan in the face!

Faced with the muzzles of the black holes, Tolan was stunned and did not hesitate, and decisively raised his hands in surrender.

It was not only the Burning Corps that surrounded them, but also the 110,000th Borneo Troop wearing legion-style exoskeletons.

Close to the combat effectiveness of one of their support teams, there is no hope of breaking through at all.

Even if you resist stubbornly, it will have no effect, and it will only add meaningless casualties.

“…… Give up, Phil, they won the battle. Glancing at the adjutant who was still trying to draw his gun to resist, Tolan said in a calm tone.

"But ......"

"Even if you don't think about yourself, think about your subordinates, they have their own families."

Hearing all the words of the commander, the lieutenant named Phil finally handed over his rifle with a humiliated face.

Taking away the pistol, Lao Bai looked at the commander named Tolan and raised his eyebrows.

"I like people who are knowledgeable because it saves us a lot of time."

Looking at the handcuffs handed by the soldier on the side, Tolan submissively stretched out his hands.

But just before he was taken down, he suddenly spoke as if he had thought of something.

"You're the commander of the Burning Corps?"

Seeing that the NPC looked at him, Lao Bai nodded and said dryly.

"Yes."

Torran pondered for a moment.

"Can I take the liberty of asking a question?"

Lao Bai: "You ask." ”

Glancing at the group of Borneo soldiers dressed in Legion gear not far away, Tolan said in a slow, coherent voice.

"I don't understand...... What benefits did they give you, and why did you help them? ”

Lao Bai replied simply.

"Because if you don't, the wasteland won't end."

Hearing this unexpected answer, Tolan was visibly stunned.

“…… The wasteland won't end? ”

"That's right," Lao Bai nodded, glanced at the self-propelled gun not far away, and raised his chin, "Can that thing end the wasteland?" ”

"As long as there are enough, it can indeed be done," the officer named Phil retorted unconvinced, staring at Lao Bai deadly, "no matter how bad it is, you gophers can be cleaned up of your group of gophers." ”

Lao Bai didn't get angry, but just replied with a smile.

"Well, your wasteland should be over long ago, so why bother here to find land in the sun. I guess the survivors in the wasteland must have sharpened their heads and wanted to run to your place, instead of hiding from you like cockroaches. ”

Tolan suddenly laughed.

"If there was such a guy, I bet he would be insane."

Phil looked at his commander in astonishment, as if he couldn't believe what was coming out of his mouth.

Hearing this unexpected answer, Lao Bai glanced at the thousand-captain named Tolan and raised his eyebrows slightly.

It seems that the people of Willant are not all crazy, there are still some normal people......

All 52 self-propelled guns were captured, and Commander Yokalwan commanded his men to point their guns at the Willant gunners, and asked them to set up new firing elements according to the coordinates provided by the 1st Mechanized Infantry Division at the port of Golden Gallen, and then bombarded the artillery positions of the 370,000th Brigade.

What happened next was just as Captain Baldwin had seen.

At the same time, in the face of tanks rushing to the face and artillery fire from the rear, the 370,000th squad could only flee in pieces.

Compared to the collapse of the army, breaking the whole into pieces is just a slightly euphemistic statement.

Thankfully, they were fast.

If you run any slower, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to run.

The rout of the 370,000 troops and the fall of the 360,000 support teams were just the beginning.

In the face of the combined offensive of the Death Corps and the 30,000 troops of Borneo, the eight thousand-man teams that crossed the river also suffered heavy casualties.

Faced with the interspersed and encirclement of the Death Corps, nearly 10,000 soldiers who went deep into the woods were forcibly split in half from the middle!

Some of the troops were surrounded on a hill less than five kilometers from the riverbank, while the other part of the reinforcements who had just crossed the river were stuck on the river's edge.

The latter, in particular, is the most tragic.

As the pontoon bridges were blown up one after another, the Willantes stationed on the banks of the river had no way to retreat, and could only face the rain of bullets from the forest in despair, bearing more and more casualties.

Some of them could not bear the fear in their hearts, and could not find shelter to hide, so they turned around and jumped into the Yongliu River, trying to swim back to the west of the river.

Blood stained the river beach red, and the east bank of the Yongliu River was full of corpses lying there!

Among them were clones and Wilantes, some died from machine-gun fire, and some were unfortunately hit by shrapnel from mortar shells or had their entrails shattered.

The explosions came one after another, and the airship in the air finally dropped the anchor chain and bombarded the ground with artillery, trying to stop the encirclement of the 360,000th squad by the Death Corps with close artillery fire.

However, it didn't take long for smoke to rise from the forest, which could cut off the signal.

The artillery in the air lost both the guidance of the ground troops and the field of vision that could be directly aimed, and could only watch the dense fog that filled the woods dry and stared.

The same was true of the Southern Corps Air Force that took off from Saifan Harbor, twenty "Daggers" were killed over the battlefield, but they were unable to attack because they lost the guidance of the ground forces.

Including the "Sabre" flying from the direction of Eternal Night Port.

The latter, in particular, was the most aggrieved, because of the lack of ground support means, and could only withdraw in a huff after strafing the two shuttle machine guns.

In the end, the most useful was the Horn cannon, which hit the edge of the smoke one after the other, killing many Union soldiers in the confusion.

However, those guys seemed to be endless, and they rushed into the faces of their ground troops with the whistling shells, even if they died, they had to change their ways.

In the face of that indomitable momentum, the 360,000th team was completely stunned.

It was the first time that many young men from the colonies had experienced such a tragic battlefield.

The arrogance on those faces could no longer be seen when they first stepped on the battlefield, only panic and panic remained.

There is no medal here that they crave.

Only the death that can be seen everywhere!

It's not just the boys who fight on the front, but the officers who command in the rear.

In fact, the war has reached this point, there is no difference between the front line and the rear, and the whole forest is full of bullets and gunfire.

However, not everyone is as "scumbag" as Captain Tolan, for example, Taut, who crossed the river first, threatened to die without surrendering.

Seeing that his subordinates were almost wiped out, his eyes were blood-red, and instead of retreating a little in his heart, he took his guard team with him.

"No retreat! Hold me up, everybody! Our reinforcements are on the way! ”

"Damn! Cheer me up! ”

Although the 360,000th team has already suffered a heavy blow, he believes that the opposite alliance and Borneo have also suffered huge casualties!

The corpses scattered in the forest were not all Wilantes, but also a significant number of the Confederacy or Brahmans.

If he had retreated at this time, the dead brethren would have died in vain.

Even for the sake of the dignity of the Willant, he would never allow himself to retreat at this time.

However, at this very moment, a sudden burst of gunfire swept from his side in front of him.

Two of the guards were killed instantly, and the other two were shot in the chest and thigh, and fell to the ground bleeding profusely.

Taute drew his pistol, but before he could open the safe, he was kicked to the ground.

He reached for the dropped pistol, but was trampled on the wrist by a military boot.

"Ah!!h

A scream of pain erupted from Taut's mouth, and he slammed the stabbed LD-47 rifle into his ear with his backhand in his backhand.

"It's over, let your men surrender."

"Surrender...... Hehe......"

Tautri grinned as he endured the pain, his twisted face covered in muddy water, like a demon crawling out of a swamp.

“…… Dream! ”

Guessing that he would say this, the edge paddled "tsk" and didn't say anything.

Whether this guy surrenders or not, it can't change the outcome of this battle.

Like he said.

It's over.

The roar of the fighter jets flew overhead, and the two "Thunder" fighters drew two demonic blue lights in the air, stabbing at the "daggers" hovering in the air.

The propeller planes approached in the direction of the steel airship for refuge, and the latter hurriedly set up their barrels and air-to-air missiles to watch out for the two demonic blue lights.

Flying the Thunder Fighter did not approach the airship's firing range, but turned a corner along the edge of the firing range, and together with the wingman, he fired thirty-two unguided rockets.

The rockets didn't fly towards the airship, but accelerated straight to the anchor chain underneath the airship.

The graviton-based deflection shield enveloped the entire airship, but apparently did not envelop the anchor chain underneath the airship.

John, who was standing on the bridge, sensed the intentions of the coalition aircraft and immediately ordered the anti-aircraft guns to open fire.

The locust-like shells exploded into an impenetrable wall of clouds in the air, but it was still a step slower than the speed at which the rocket broke through Mach 3.

Rockets dragging tail flames pierced dense clouds of fragmentation like javelins!

Although most of them rubbed past the anchor chains, five or six of them still crashed into the steel pod that was about the thickness of a man and the chains!

The burst of fire sliced the anchor chain in two, and the kinetic energy of the explosion shook the entire towering body of the airship.

The steel pod that was being released down fell heavily to the ground, kicking up billowing smoke and dust on the plain.

Looking at the falling steel pod, Captain Taot was lying on his back, and a trace of despair finally appeared on his face.

In his cognition, the Legion's steel airship is invincible and invincible!

However, the reality that came into his eyes shattered his faith.

It wasn't just Captain Taut who had despair on his face, but so did Captain Woolfwan, who was about to board the pod.

He couldn't go back at all.

The 1st Mechanized Infantry Division of Golden Gallen Harbor had already killed him in the face, and at the moment there were only two thousand-man teams left on the West Bank.

With only these two thousand-man teams, it was impossible for him to stop that group of guys who were as fierce as hungry wolves!

And this is indeed the case, 20 "Chimera" armored vehicles took the lead in killing the west bank at the bend of the Yongliu River, and the 37-mm rapid-fire guns swept abruptly, and the light infantry stationed on the bank of the river was quickly beaten to the ground.

And as the two armored regiments cut to the relatively high slope on the west side, Captain Woolfwan, who was sitting in the command car, completely broke off the idea of escaping.

The white flag was raised from the command car, and he reluctantly gave the order to surrender.

Listening to the voice in the communication channel, the hideousness on the face of the Commander of the Tauter finally turned into dead ashes.

"I said it, it's over."

Not wanting to laugh at this guy, the edge paddling just teased him, and then picked up the pistol that fell on his hand.

The muddy face looked at him expressionlessly, and suddenly squeezed out a sentence from the cracked lips.

"Kill me."

Edge paddling hehe smiled.

"We don't kill prisoners."

Tauter's emotions suddenly became agitated, and he staggered up from the ground.

"Then give me back my gun!"

However, before he could finish his words, he was knocked to the ground by the butt of a rifle.

It was a Borneo soldier who struck.

He glared at the officer with a murderous gaze, eager to cut off the guy's head.

Since the Lion City massacre, all Willantes have been the same for him.

He just wanted to kill them all!

However, the edge paddling did not give the Taute a chance to be "glorious", and reached out to stop the friendly brother who was about to make a move.

Walking up to Taut, he looked down at the guy who was lying on his stomach like a wild dog in the muddy water, gasping.

“…… I will not do this either, we will let you live until the end of this war, and then the victims of this war will judge you and make you go to hell with your sins to repent. ”

Without looking at the guy again, the edge paddling just told "take care of people", and then walked away.

The battle on the ground is over.

Both the Willantes who were trapped by the river and the Willantes who were guarding the hills finally chose to surrender.

Perhaps because of the casualties of friendly forces, or perhaps to save ammunition, the airship hanging in the sky did not open fire, but retreated in the direction of the west, preparing to join up with the large army and then return to the field.

Looking at the drifting airship, Isher had an expression of disbelief.

“…… We actually won. ”

"Don't be too proud, it's just this one."

Standing on the edge of the hill, the edge paddled and looked up into the distance, narrowing his eyes slightly.

I saw that in the dark clouds, there was a faint hint of imperceptible forest.

He knew where that Senran came from.

At the same time as their victory, four airships no inferior to the Horn had arrived at the port of Saifan and were setting sail in the direction of the Eastern Front.

This is the intelligence provided by the friendly forces of the South China Sea Alliance, and at the same time the confirmation of the falling feather was obtained.

At present, these news have been synchronized on the official website forum of "Wasteland Online".

Looking at the edge paddling with a serious expression, Isher also restrained the light enemy on his face and became serious.

“…… What do we do next? ”

"Next...... Celebration, of course. ”

Looking at Ischer, who was like a great enemy, his brows suddenly loosened when he paddled on the edge, and he reached out and patted him on the shoulder with a smile.

"Rejoice, we won a battle just now, and we heard from our allies that they caught a big fish underneath that airship, and the rank is said to be Captain."

"It's the captain of the 360,000th team?!" A look of surprise appeared on Ischer's face instantly.

He's so excited!

After all, until yesterday, they were unilaterally beaten by the Legion.

The officers killed in the Borneo war could not be counted on two hands, and now they finally raised their eyebrows.

Although the people were caught by the Alliance, there is no difference!

"Well, it's that grandson, a bastard who didn't take us seriously, I'll have to say thank you to him in a moment...... Thanks to their heads being so iron, they insisted on crossing the river. ”

Looking at Isher with a surprised face, the edge paddled and shook his shoulder with a smile.

"What did I say before? There's nothing to be afraid of that airship. ”

"It's going to get better slowly."
