445 Mobilizing troops, a battle of ten thousand
Both sides were scheming against each other to ensure the success of their plans.
that night, it seemed like sandu had suffered a few losses. however, only link, ren yi, li zijun, and a few other players knew that something big was about to happen.
whether it was a human or a ghost, it was just a matter of whose design was more profound. it could be called the night of the oscars.
the mechanical pioneer, dr. zhao, gave the order to withdraw most of the vehicles that were lying in ambush at the front line. even most of the enemies surrounded by the scarlet dragon daggers also retreated.
it was already extremely cold in the winter at the end of the year. at night, the desert temperature could drop to-20 to-30 degrees celsius.
for the zealot, this temperature required more high-quality low-temperature resistant oil to maintain the operation of the mechanical armor and more energy to maintain the vital signs. It was the same for the mercenaries of the wasteland gang. They only came in an armed jeep, but they didn’t prepare any materials and facilities to set up camp.
The mechanical Pioneer’s order to ” go easy ” made the enemy’s attention focus on the Scarlet Dragon Dagger. At the same time, he would let the Scarlet Dragon Drake go and let them continue their work. This way, the mechanical pioneers would have a chance to understand their specific purpose here through a conversation.
Because of the macaw’s ” true colors “, the pioneers of machinery were completely convinced of the authenticity of the audio conversation and were already planning the next step.
The last time link, John, and a group of Inhumans had snuck into the city, the city was still parked beside the Keria canal.
Dr. Zhao was a vengeful person. This time, he had to seize the opportunity to take revenge with equal means.
......
The next day.
Link was woken up by sunflower’s brainwashing chant. After washing up and walking out of his bedroom, he ran into the curly-haired baboon who was playing marbles with its tail in the corridor.
When the curly-haired baboon saw link, it strode up to him with a wide grin.”Boss, boss, do you think this marble is round?”
link took a closer look. the silver luster on the surface was slightly rough, but he could tell that there was no problem with the smoothness.
the next second, link suddenly realized that this was the cobalt ore collected by the cobalt beetles!
curly hair, where did you get these round marbles? ”
The curly-haired baboon scratched his head and pointed at the garden. “There are many more beside the garden.”
link quickly went to the garden on the first floor. as soon as he reached the living room, he saw the perfectly arranged cobalt and iron balls through the glass. they glowed with a metallic luster under the sun.
there were at least a hundred of them, all in different sizes.
At the same time, a lot of information popped up on Link’s system interface.
[ you have completed the main city Mission [ Shandu: energy crisis ] ]
[ you have received 300000 experience points and the blueprint of the ‘Sky Eye’ satellite. ]
[ excellent event [ energy revolution ] has been officially activated ]
After reading the reward information, Link’s mind went blank. The random blueprint had actually rewarded him with a Sky Eye satellite blueprint.
The ” Sky Eye ” satellite was a type of close-earth communication satellite, and this kind of satellite had a modified mode. In the future, it could be embedded into a spaceship for investigation communication. In the middle and late stages of his previous life, many players had spaceships of various sizes. When they were heading to the planet for a mission, they could release the ‘Sky Eye’ satellite on the spaceship to perform a preliminary scan and assessment of the planet. It could also be used as a Vanguard and to provide communication after landing.
The “Sky Eye” satellite could be considered the most basic communication and reconnaissance satellite in the interstellar universe. It was a necessity for home and travel.
Link scratched his head and looked at the satellite blueprint on the table. He couldn’t help but mock himself,”It’s useless even if you give me this now, Yingluo.”
Although he had the satellite blueprint, no one in the freedom Federation had the technology to launch a satellite. At this stage, this thing was completely a dragon-slaying spell to link. It was only when the alien demonic race descended in version 2.0 and started ” sending technology to the countryside ” and ” one-on-one help ” activities on the wasteland planet that the Science and Technology on the planet would make significant progress. With the arrival of the observer team sent by the first order, the players could use this as a springboard to leave the wasteland planet and enter the universe.
Link kept the blueprint of the sky Eye satellite in his secret room. He couldn’t use it now, but he could use it in the future.
Link took out a box and put the 105 cobalt balls away. He then called for the macaw to deliver the items to the underground Research Center. He told it to deliver them to Helen.
If nothing went wrong, these cobalt balls and Helen were the key to the excellent Mission [ energy revolution ].
With the ” forward vision ” from his previous life, link could easily identify the key figures. Otherwise, just like in his previous life, Helen would have hidden her identity after escaping from the city of mechas. Who would have thought that a 15-year-old girl would become the Mother Goddess of mechas and be qualified to start an energy revolution?
In other words, Helen’s return, her research on machinery, and the energy revolution were all led by link.
Link had just sat down when the phone on his desk rang. It was a call from the Military Intelligence Office.
“General, I’ve sent out three supply teams at the same time today. They approached the Scarlet Dragon Dagger from different locations and all of them succeeded! We’ve only been harassed by a small group of enemies on the periphery, and all the supplies have been sent in!” Ren Yi’s voice sounded very excited, sweeping away yesterday’s gloominess and gloominess.
Link’s eyes brightened. Have all the enemies who ambushed us yesterday retreated?”
“They’ve all retreated. They encountered a small group of enemies near the Scarlet Dragon Ridge, but under Captain Li’s leadership, the enemy only harassed them for a while before retreating. the three supply teams have successfully arrived at the scarlet dragon drake. the only regret is that they didn’t bring too many strategic supplies because they were only experimental.” Ren Yi’s tone carried a hint of regret.
Link was in a good mood. it’s possible that the enemy went back during the day to rest and recuperate. They’ll only come out at night to ambush us.
Ren Yi immediately followed Link’s words, ” then I’ll take advantage of the day to arrange for the transportation of supplies to ensure the supply of Red Dragon Dagger at the front line. I’ll let them take root at the front line and work hard to explore the mineral resources to guard the strategic location of Red Dragon Dagger.
link thought for a moment and came up with a better idea.
“No! since the enemy will continue to ambush us tonight, why don’t we beat them at their own game and gather the Outlanders in weeping Valley and the soldiers of Shandu to launch a wave of destructive attacks on the enemy, directly catching all these ambushers in one go? The enemy definitely won’t expect us to come out in full force. When all the desert forces lying in ambush are annihilated, we’ll take advantage of the enemy’s surprise to transport the supplies to the Red Dragon Ridge and build a defense line overnight, getting it done once and for all.”
ren yi’s breathing became rapid, and after a long while, he couldn’t help but sigh, ” “This is really a big move, but if most of the soldiers rush to the front line, the defense of weeping Valley will be empty, leaving an opportunity for the enemy to take advantage of.”
“It’s fine, we’ll just arrange for the Outlanders to defend.” Link’s tone was relaxed. He was so immersed in his grand plan that he ignored these details.
On the other hand, Ren Yi was in a dilemma. however, if it’s the Inhumans, it’s fine to stop the mobile vehicles. If the enemy uses heavy firepower, the Inhumans won’t be able to intervene at all.
Link was silent for a moment. Ren Yi, the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly. We only want to seize every opportunity. How can there be a 100% safe situation? ” If he wanted to win a big victory, he had to bear the corresponding risk. I can understand your obsession with authenticity and security, but there has never been a 100% guarantee in war. What we can do is to seize the opportunity and use the minimum casualties and costs to exchange for the maximum benefits.”
general, I understand. I’ll immediately start organizing the men and prepare. We’ll set off tonight!
“Remember, you must keep this information a secret. I’m still suspecting that there might be a mole among us, Yingluo, for the three ambushes last night.”
“Your subordinate will remember!”
After link hung up, he tapped his finger on the table. Everything was in place. He just had to wait for the mechanical pioneers to take action.
If he chose to let go of such a ” great opportunity, ” then link would be doubting the computing power of the machinery faith.
So far, link had created three key points.
First, the Scarlet Dragon Drake was excavating metal mines for war resources.
...
Second, the sand capital was going to organize a large-scale counter-ambush tonight, which could be described as a full-force attack, and they would also bring a large number of supplies.
Third, crying Valley’s middle gate was empty. Only the Inhumans were providing support for defense, but there was no way to deal with long-range or heavy firepower.
Just now, Lin Ke and Ren Yi had displayed their acting skills. After that, Ren Yi and Li Ziqi would act out a double act. This big show could be considered to have begun. Whether the ‘audience’ would enter the seats or not would depend on the other party.
This level of performance was just right, any more and it would instead cause people to be suspicious.
......
mechanical city, the grand canal of goria.
Ever since the five full-time radio capturing devices had been activated, the energy consumption of the city had greatly increased.
Everyone in the city was getting less energy every day, and it felt like they were living a hard life.
However, the full-time radio had deciphered the military frequency signals of weeping Valley and the Scarlet Dragon Dagger, copying all the communication content.
right now, in the laboratory of professor zhao, the pioneer of machines, in the central forbidden zone of the giant machines, the conversation between link and ren yi was being played.
Dr. Zhao analyzed the audio with great interest. The eye sockets and mouth of the skull helmet were overflowing with high-quality energy, which looked like a deformed clown grinning.
...
After two days of surveillance and three waves of ambushes, the enemy finally lost their formation.
dr. zhao was confident that victory was in his hands. the enemy’s response was entirely based on the fact that they had removed their defenses today.
The information he had stolen from the military intelligence Department of Shenmu City was very important. Dr. Zhao now knew that the enemy had taken the risk to occupy Red Dragon Ridge in order to mine for cobalt ore.
The machinery faith had an extreme thirst for metal resources, not to mention rare resources like cobalt ore.
With a phone call today, the mechanical pioneers knew everything he wanted to know.
He wanted the underground mine of the Scarlet Dragon Dagger, the supplies transported by the Shandu troops, weeping Valley, and even the entire Shandu!
the data in the mechanical pioneer’s brain ran quickly, and the success rate of the plan was deduced. in the end, it obtained an exciting number.
Even though the mechanical pioneers knew that there would be risks in this operation, the outcome of success was too tempting, so he had to try.
The mechanical pioneer returned to the throne of steel and sat still on it. The purple energy light under the skull helmet was slightly restrained, and he was still like a statue.
At the same time, in the base camp of the wasteland gang of Essia, hundreds of miles away.
Several warlords had recently deployed their troops near their headquarters, sending a steady stream of troops to the Goria Grand Canal. The Arsenal and automobile factories were also running at full capacity in preparation for the general attack next year.
In the military tent in the center of the base camp, the skeleton of a machine covered in a silver-gray cloak in the corner suddenly turned. Its eyes revealed a demonic and strange dark red light. Then, the Bionic robot got up. After a few seconds of adapting to its staggering steps, it walked to the side of the tent’s curtain and said to the outside, ”
urgent intelligence. There’s an important operation. I’m summoning all the commanders immediately.
At the same time, the entire weeping Valley began to move.
All the nodes were like the gears of a precision machine. They operated seamlessly, and each ring affected each other.
Because link had control over the entire military in the Shandu, he only needed to make a phone call to mobilize the troops.
Link’s every move was eavesdropped by the pioneer of machinery.
In addition to the Air Force, the three armies were moving together. This scale could definitely be considered an all-out attack.
It was fortunate that the mechanical pioneers knew that they were going to swallow the desert to ambush the troops. Otherwise, they would really be suspected of launching a general attack.
both sides were quietly mobilizing their troops to carry out their own plans.
Many Inhumans had also received the recruitment mission from the military intelligence Department-[ ambush desert forces ].
Yesterday, the goods that the players had transported had been eaten three times in a row, and rumors had long since spread throughout the city. After receiving the ambush mission today, the players rolled up their sleeves one by one, looking like they were ready to take revenge.
Link sat in his office, looking at the map of the huge Sand City and desert behind him.
The Shandu Army had mobilized a total of 5000 people, including the 300 Wolf cavalry that terrified the desert cults. The military intelligence Department had recruited 7000 qualified Inhumans, of which 4000 were players who rented the wasteland wolves.
Such a scale meant that link was “serious.”
He had invested more than 10000 troops in the sand capital. As for the forces in the Keria desert, link wasn’t sure.
over 10000 resources have been mobilized for this battle. If the machinery faith doesn’t respond, it will be awkward. Link crossed his arms and mumbled to himself.
Link stood up and walked to the balcony. He looked up at the moonless night sky, which was filled with stars.
A moment later, the sound of wings flapping could be heard in the sky. The sand Eagle swooped down, flying towards link.
Link was half a step away from the statue, and it crashed into the balcony railing, its feathers falling to the ground.
Then, the White-saber Sea Eagle glided gracefully and landed steadily on the railing. It looked down at its stupid husband and could not help but turn away, burying its head under its wings. It was so embarrassed that it could not bear to look at him.
Ga Ga Ga ~”
link’s eyes glinted after learning about the gale desert’s current situation from the sand eagle and the white-bladed sea eagle.
The main part of this Oscar performance could finally be shown!
