Chapter 817: Idacon's Choice
It would take fifteen minutes for the retreat of the three independent regiments to avoid the Empire's nuclear attack, but this did not mean that Yang Antai would let the three independent regiments retreat now.
"In forty-three minutes, we can bring back all the Duke Armor, provided that the Empire does not use nuclear weapons to bombard the wreckage of the Peace."
The Duke's Armor, which weighs in tons, is not so easy to capture when it is impossible to drive. Moreover, it was as the Empire continued to bombard the location of the wreckage of the Peacekeeper.
Originally, the Gods Mountain Theater only wanted to dispatch unmanned related equipment to complete a meaningful capture operation while avoiding more sacrifices.
But time is running out, Yang Antai chose to support after Ji Xinghe explained his ideas, and sent a regular mecha corps to carry out the capture operation by dragging the mecha.
Sacrifice is inevitable, and the speed of capture has been improved, but it still needs the Xinghe team led by Ji Xinghe to delay time.
"Okay."
Ji Xinghe agreed.
In the face of the encirclement and suppression of the entire imperial army, he had to lead the Xinghe team to gain another forty-three minutes.
Then, you can give the empire a big gift.
If you want to maximize the killing effect of nuclear weapons, delay time From another point of view, it is also to make the forces used by the empire to encircle and suppress the galaxy team more dense, judging from the terrain of the mountain of the gods, if it is a large-scale encirclement and suppression, the imperial forces have too many natural bunkers, and there is a high chance that they can avoid the two main damages of nuclear weapons: ultra-high temperature and shock wave.
Although the actual effect of the radiation produced by a nuclear explosion is far greater than that of the shock wave and the ultra-high temperature, the radiation can only cause damage to conventional forces.
Even if the protective effect of the conventional-level mecha is far inferior to that of superalloy, tungsten steel alloy, and tungsten steel gold body, as long as it is not in the center of the nuclear explosion, it can be basically harmless.
When the empire used nuclear weapons against Ji Xinghe for the first time, Han Li and the mecha warriors of the Xinghe team at that time were all within the scope of the nuclear explosion area, but they were not affected much, and they recovered after a short period of radiation protection.
The vast majority of the forces used by the empire to encircle and suppress the galaxy team this time are mecha troops, as well as various ordnances, such as tanks and armored vehicles, which can also withstand nuclear strikes from a certain distance. Therefore, if the timing of the use of nuclear strikes is not precise enough, from the point of view of the result, it is a waste of nuclear weapons, and the opportunity created by Ji Xinghe and others to take a lone deep risk to lure the enemy.
After the updated battle plan was decided, all operations went according to plan.
In the face of the encirclement and suppression of the Galaxy team, it seems that there is no need to worry about it in a short period of time, and the only ones that can really pose a threat to them are only thirty Prince Armor. In fact, one of them was the Emperor Armor piloted by Adacom, but it was impossible for Adacom to break away from the Prince Armor team alone to pursue the Galaxy team, which made their pursuit speed at most the same as the movement speed of the Galaxy team.
In the case of a large encirclement, the maneuver transfer of the Galaxy squad was not affected in the slightest.
"Why didn't they just retreat?"
Adacom heard the inquiry of his other son, who had come to the alien planet this time, and had brought with him his most powerful son, just like the three kings of the four empires before.
"They're still on reconnaissance missions, and judging from their travel path, Ji Xinghe wants to be as accurate as possible about the coordinates of our jump base."
It was Adakon's son who spoke, and it was normal for an orangutan like it to have dozens of sons. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that its grandchildren didn't get the Prince Armor, it could even form a mecha corps with all its grandchildren.
Compared with Ji Xinghe, the grandchildren of the older Aidakang have long been adults.
"I don't think so, the Federation has dispatched a regular mecha legion to collect the Duke armor of the Guards Battalion, they seem to be buying time, and in the case that we have already used nuclear weapons today, I think Ji Xinghe is very likely to order the use of nuclear weapons to fight back."
"Those three independent regiments are still fighting our mech legions, and if the Federation were to use nuclear weapons, they would definitely be allowed to retreat. Otherwise, after they have annihilated our regular mech legions, we can also use nuclear weapons to annihilate them. ”
"They can retreat at any time, in the federal occupation zone we don't have enough sight, it won't take long for them to reach the area that evades our nuclear strike. And, what about the Teal Independence Regiment? Judging from the current situation, if Ji Xinghe really wants to fight us, he will definitely summon the Azure Independent Regiment. ”
If it weren't for Ji Xinghe's 'backtracking' to change his order, the Azure Independent Regiment would indeed have arrived at the battlefield as these orangutans expected.
But fighting is like this, there has never been any certain rules, and at this time, the space battleship where the Azure Independent Regiment is located is in the sky above the Mountain of the Gods. If the situation changes, they will still be airborne in orbit to participate in the operation.
"How dare the Teal Independence Regiment show up? If they were to show up, they would not have been able to escape from our encirclement. Ji Xinghe is not a fool, and the commander of the Federation in the Gods Mountain Theater is not a fool, if they dare to let the Azure Independent Regiment participate in the war, we can completely abandon the goal of the Galaxy Squad and directly annihilate their Azure Independent Regiment. ”
"Is the Federation really afraid that the Azure Independence Regiment will be annihilated by us? They have a chance to get three hundred Duke armor today. No, they've now transported nearly a hundred Duke armors, and our long-range firepower can't stop them. With these Dukes' Armor, they can create a stronger Teal Independence, or some other Independence. ”
"My suggestion is to immediately use nuclear weapons to bombard the wreckage of that space battleship, and annihilate those conventional mechs that the Federation is cleaning up the battlefield, even if it destroys those Duke armors."
"Aren't you doing this to force Ji Xinghe to use nuclear weapons against us? If they really bombard the Mountain of the Gods with nuclear weapons desperately, with the information they currently have, they can completely bombard the area around our jump base, if the jump gate can't be opened at that time, who will bear this responsibility? We're left with just one jump base. ”
"We have already used nuclear weapons against Ji Xinghe's granddaughter Ji Rong Xinyue, how can the Federation not fight back without nuclear weapons? Sooner or later, it will be used, and even soon there will be a nuclear strike on us, what else do we have to worry about? ”
"Father, do you still have the authority to use nuclear weapons?"
Aidakon, who had been listening to his sons' arguments, finally spoke.
"Ji Xinghe is stalling for time, he is waiting for the forces we use to encircle and suppress them to be more concentrated, and then use nuclear weapons to counterattack us."
Hearing this, some sons were in high spirits, and some sons were remorseful.
The orangutan who had raised this possibility before asked eagerly, "Father, then do we still want to encircle and suppress Ji Xinghe?" If they decide to use nuclear weapons, there is no point in our encirclement. ”
"Why doesn't it make sense?" Idacom asked rhetorically.
"Because the more we encircle and suppress, the stronger the lethal effect of their nuclear weapons, and when they tear up our encirclement with nuclear weapons, they can retreat directly."
The orangutan, who denied this possibility just now, seized the opportunity and said: "The galaxy team led by Ji Xinghe, only a very few mechs can resist the bombardment of nuclear weapons, which means that if they use a nuclear strike, they will inevitably put the final fortress as a cover. When they enter the final fortress and cannot move, that's when we catch up with them. The meaning of this battle is to kill Ji Xinghe and annihilate his Xinghe team. ”
"Can we really kill Ji Xinghe?"
Twenty-nine Prince Armor and one Emperor Armor have such a luxurious configuration, compared to the Galaxy team that has 'run out of ammunition', but some Imperial Princes and Orangutans think that they can't kill Ji Xinghe.
I have to say that Ji Xinghe's prestige in the empire is really even greater than his prestige in the Federation.
Adacon's brow furrowed, but he was noncommittal about his son's lack of confidence, for it had the same lack of confidence.
"It doesn't matter if you can't kill Ji Xinghe, as long as you can annihilate his Xinghe team, this Federation's nuclear strike is an acceptable loss for us."
The sons, the nobles, and the guards all understood what Aidakon meant.
It is well aware that if this encirclement continues, the Federation is very likely to use nuclear weapons, but in order to be able to annihilate the Galaxy team led by Ji Xinghe, and to fight for a chance to kill Ji Xinghe, it is willing to give up a large number of troops that may be destroyed by the Federation's nuclear strike.
Thinking of the Imperial Royal Guards Mecha Battalion, which had been completely wiped out, and the Jump Base No. 3 that had fallen, the orangutans could all understand Adakang's choice.
The empire had already suffered too much damage today, and if they didn't seize the last chance to recoup their losses, the wrath of Emperor Wu III would cost them all very much.
Idacom can't even bear it.
"What about the Teal Independence?" One of Adacon's sons asked, "If the Federation uses nuclear weapons and the Galaxy Squad can't retreat from our pursuit, they will definitely join the Teal Independent, and we don't have any mechs to fight against." ”
Idacon's tone was decisive: "Then use nuclear weapons to annihilate the Azure Independent Regiment, and by the way, inflict heavy losses on the Galaxy Squad." ”
The orangutans of the prince's A team were silent, and at this point, no one could change Adakang's decision.
As a result, they gave up using nuclear weapons to bombard the location of the wreckage of the Ping'an, in order to give Ji Xinghe a false impression.
They don't dare to use nuclear weapons anymore, or they don't dare to use nuclear weapons on the Mountain of the Gods.
When the encirclement and suppression against the Galaxy team continued and the encirclement continued to shrink, the war in the second war zone underwent unexpected changes.
The champion Hou driven by Ji Rong Xinyue was caught up by five Prince A.
