Chapter 107: Ready to Enter the City

The rank system of the Glorian guerrillas is actually similar to that of the Setan Federation. As far as infantry is concerned, the general platoon commander is a second lieutenant, then the company commander is a lieutenant or captain, the battalion commander is a lieutenant or major, the regiment commander is a lieutenant colonel or colonel, the division commander is a general major general, the army commander is a lieutenant general, and then the commander of the group army is the rank of general.

However, there are also some special positions in the infantry of the Glorian guerrillas, such as the head of the partisan group in the city of Oaklandis in Hank. This is actually a comprehensive political organizational position, not a real military position. And Hank's military rank is actually a guerrilla company commander with the rank of captain.

The rank of the Glorian Guerrilla Mechs is actually similar to that of the Setan Federation Army. Mechmen who drive light individual mechs are generally in the rank of sergeant or warrant officer, and there are few who have outstanding combat achievements or have a relatively long military experience, and they may also have the rank of second lieutenant. Medium mechs, on the other hand, are usually piloted by two people, the captain being a second lieutenant and the other co-captain being a warrant officer or ensign. Heavy mechs are piloted by three to five people, the captain is a lieutenant, there are a few with the rank of captain, and the rest of the co-pilot, pilot, gunner, etc. range from warrant officer to lieutenant.

In addition, an armored platoon of the Glorian partisans was generally equipped with three mechs. There are three armored platoons under an armored company, plus the company commander's own car, a total of ten mechs. According to the principle of the three-three system, the number of mecha attached to armored battalions and armored regiments is also the same.

Those equipped with three light individual mechs are called light mecha platoons, those equipped with three heavy mechs are called heavy mecha platoons, and so on. Generally speaking, light and medium armored platoon commanders are lieutenant ranks, and electronic or heavy armored platoon commanders are captains or captains. The same is true of the armored company commander, the armored battalion commander, and so on.

So just now Sophia suddenly appointed Tom as the commander of the 1st Armored Battalion of the Basel Branch of the Glorian Guerrillas, and it stands to reason that this military position should be at least an officer of a major or lieutenant colonel. But Sophia didn't expect that this dead fat man was not even an officer, just an unruly corporal. And between the corporal and the major, there are at least seven or eight ranks.

And among these partisans, almost all of them had a higher rank than Tom. Especially the three armored company commanders in the battalion, as well as the two platoon commanders of the Huben heavy mecha platoon and the echo electronic mecha platoon, these five people are all in the rank of captain, so the surrounding guerrillas think this thing is very funny.

But after a while, everyone finished laughing. After all, Tom, the commander of the armored battalion, was appointed by Sophia himself in front of everyone present, and the partisans could only carry it out unconditionally. So it didn't take long for everyone to accept the comedic reality of the corporal battalion commander with a grin.

After everyone had laughed and rested, Tom asked the partisans to start checking the mechs and equipment.

Over there, Bai Jie also asked Mike to take the men in black to check the mecha system and the remaining ammunition, and at the same time check the food and water brought out this time. Fortunately, when I came out of the guerrillas' secret warehouse this time, I was finally well prepared, and there was no shortage of food, but there was not much ammunition left for the mecha.

"What's next?" Bai Jie sat down next to Tom, lit a cigarette, and asked leisurely.

"The one-eyed lady was right just now, if the mecha enters the city, it will be discovered by the imperial army immediately. So I'd like to leave you here, and I'll go into the city alone to find out what's going on, and I'll figure out where they're locked up first. Tom replied.

"No! I have to go with you! Bai Jie spit out a puff of smoke rings and said leisurely.

Tom was impatient, glared at Bai Jie and said, "What are you doing with you?" You can't fight again! If you run away from the Imperial Army, I'll have to take care of you! ”

"My marksmanship is much better than yours! Besides, that's what Director Smith meant. I've got to keep an eye on you, and if you're going to be a wallhead, I'm going to shoot you!" Bai Jie finished with a smile, and gestured with his finger to make a shooting motion, pointing at Tom's head.

The fat man suddenly felt a headache, and he almost forgot that he was still an undercover spy in the puppet government intelligence bureau. Originally, the fat man thought that he had already identified himself to the people of the puppet government when he was in the underground base of the garbage disposal station in Oakland City last time, but he didn't expect that Bai Jie, the girl, was still playing dead until now.

After a few more words of persuasion, in the end, Tom still couldn't resist Bai Jie, so he had to agree to take her with him.

After talking to Bai Jie here, Tom went over to have a short meeting with the three company commanders of the guerrilla armored battalion, as well as the two platoon commanders of the Tiger Ben heavy mecha platoon and the echo electronic mecha platoon.

The guerrilla leaders of several armored battalions are mecha veterans, and they can understand the decision that the mechs cannot enter the city for the time being. But the leaders of the five guerrillas all thought that it was too risky for Tom and Bai Jie to go into the city to find out what was going on.

Several people argued, and finally the fat man firmly disagreed to take a few more people into the city with him, and only agreed to let Emma accompany him. Because Emma is relatively familiar with the current situation in the city.

Tom discussed with the guerrillas again, and asked the mechs of the armored battalion to wait here for the time being, ready to respond at any time.

Bai Jie next to him also asked Mike to stay here with the men in black and the guerrilla mechas.

Before leaving, Bai Jie pulled Mike aside and whispered: "After we leave, you take someone to quietly disassemble a nuclear battery and install it on that antique mecha, and then you go and try that mecha!" ”

Mike was surprised: "Can the guerrilla mecha battery also be installed?" ”

Bai Jie said: "Try it first!" After that mecha fell to Basel, it has always used the nuclear battery of the Brave Mecha. Also, be sure to prevent those from the guerrillas coming to grab the mech. ”

After explaining to Mike, Bai Jie went over to briefly sort things out with Tom and Emma. All three of them took five days' worth of compressed biscuits and an energy pistol, and then said goodbye to everyone and crawled up the cracks in the ground.

This cliff in the crack of the ground, when the mecha came down, it was quite happy, and now the three people with six legs want to climb up again, but it is not so easy.

Tom didn't dare to send the three of them up with his mech, because he was afraid that when he reached the crack in the ground above, the Imperial Army's electronic reconnaissance mech would detect the heat source signal of the mecha engine.

The fastest climber among the three is Emma, this kid has good physical fitness and is also very agile. And Tom let Bai Jie crawl in the middle, saying that he could protect her by posting at the bottom.

In fact, the fat man's strength and agility are similar to Emma above, but he is easy to give people the wrong impression that he is clumsy because of obesity. But now the fat man has to climb at the bottom of the three people, and protecting Bai Jie is just an excuse on the surface.

This guy's ghost mind is actually that every few steps he climbs, as soon as he looks up, he can admire Bai Jie's long legs wrapped in a tight combat uniform from the bottom up. Especially when climbing a cliff like this, where it is difficult to find a foothold, one often has to spread both thighs wide in order to barely reach the next fulcrum.

So the fat man crawled under Bai Jie's buttocks all the way, because as long as he looked up, he could see Bai Jie's two buttocks and a small bulge in the middle of the continuous expansion and contraction. This dynamic picture of ecstasy made the fat man feel blood pumping and his heart was surging. With such good visual effects, Tom is simply happy like a fairy, where can he remember the sore hands and legs when climbing the cliff!

After resting and stopping, the three of them crawled for nearly two hours before finally climbing to the top of the huge crack in the ground.

But the cunning Tom did not immediately jump off the ground, but stepped on a rock, poked his head out a little, and looked around.

It's dark now, but the moonlight is still bright tonight. But even then, the visual distance of the naked eye of a person is now no more than two kilometers.

Tom looked around for a long time to make sure that there were no Imperial Army mecha troops in the vicinity, and then slowly crawled out of the crack.

When Emma and Bai Jie also climbed up, Tom took out three reflective cloths from his backpack and gave them to them.

This reflective cloth was found in the first aid kit of the Honor Mech, and was originally used to keep the Mecha Soldiers warm during the night of the march in the field.

Now Tom had draped the reflective cloth over his body, tied a small rope around his neck to prevent it from slipping, and then he had made his way and walked in the direction of the city of Auckrantis.

Bai Jie and Emma also followed his example, and while following the fat man in front of them, they also draped reflective cloth over their bodies.

This is a method often used by soldiers who fight in the field all year round, which can avoid or weaken the rays emitted by the radar detection system to a certain extent, and can have a certain concealment effect.

Tom knew that the Imperial Army's mech brigade could not let them go so easily, because in the daytime ambush battle, they had destroyed more than forty Imperial mechs, inflicting heavy damage on the Velia Imperial Blood Wolf Legion's mech brigade.

Tom could sense that the Imperial Army's mech brigade must still be nearby. At present, the detection distance of the electronic reconnaissance mecha on the heat source of the human body is generally two to three kilometers, but it is night, and the naked eye of Tom and the others can only see a range of more than one kilometer at most. Therefore, Tom had to use this actually risky method to avoid the radar scans of the Imperial Army's electronic reconnaissance mechs as much as possible, in order to get to the city as soon as possible under the cover of night.

When he came down from the crack in the ground during the day, Tom asked Sophia to use the navigator on the Tiger Mecha to help him measure the distance from this crack to the city of Auckrantis, which was more than ten kilometers! Now there is no transportation, and if Tom, Bai Jie, and Emma all walk on six legs, even if they don't stop on the road at all, it will take almost three hours to walk from here to the city of Auckrantis!

None of the three of them spoke along the way, but just walked forward with their heads bored.
