Chapter 195: : Quiet breath before major events

The captives provided a lot of information, focusing on three aspects. √ Bayi Chinese Network WWWWW ★. ★ 8 く 1 く ｚW. CoM
In the first case, this time the federal army launched a large-scale attack and the Star Thief was dead end. Both the Ji Peng Empire and the Huffman Empire, which had previously been hostile to them, both decided to send troops to help the Star Thief survive the difficulties.
As early as a few months ago, the two empires had been linked to Star Thief, using the information they had as a bargaining chip to explore the possibility of "cooperation" with each other. It was just that the asking price of the two countries was too high at the time, and the situation of Star Thief was not as bad as it is now, and they were quickly rejected. Later, the development of the situation forced the star theft to recognize the reality, and the empire's asking price was getting higher and higher. Although the star theft "struggled according to reason," there was not much choice.
The current situation is this. There are still some disputes over interest ceding, but the general direction and tone of cooperation have been determined. This team that infiltrated the Khakira Mountains was jointly formed by the three parties. The Ji Peng Empire was responsible for the mecha, and the Huffman Empire provided the pilots. The star thieves, who had long ruled, were extremely familiar with this area and had a lot of eyeliners, were responsible for leading the way and communicating.
It is worth mentioning that the annihilation of the Star Thief is regarded internationally as a "justice" move. The two empires did the opposite and must consider the impact of reputation. Among them, the Ji Peng Empire is in peace talks with the Federation, and even if it looks divorced, it cannot openly help. Therefore, in the future, the coalition forces formed by the three parties will fight against the Stars and Pirates. After the soldiers break up, they will fight in the form of "merchants."
In addition, there are some things to pay attention to, after all, superficial efforts.
The second big thing is that this team formed by the three parties shoulders an important mission and has three contents. First, find a path through the mountains for armored troops, provided that you avoid the observation of the Federal Army. The second is to liaise with the stars in the mountains, including those tending to lurk in the village names, and organize them into an army to interfere, destroy, siege, attack, and even snip the operations of the Hualong Federation garrison. Paralyzed, unable to complete monitoring mission. After doing this, this team also needs to understand the degree of blockade of the Karaman Tower defense line by Yunchao. It is best to conduct on-site inspections to confirm whether the Hualong Federation rear is completely cut off or disconnected from the front.
It should be emphasized that the third item is a supplementary task received by this team on the march. The second item has also been modified to add several new contents. Prior to that, the cloud tide had not yet arrived and Karamanta was unimpeded. The three parties' expectations for this team were not as high as they are now.
"Fuck!"
In the raging wind and rain, the Thomas brothers were blushing, and the temperature was lower than outside.
As a person performing a specific task, it is impossible to know all the plans formulated by the upper layers, but judging from the information that has been dug, path exploration, formation of troops, paralysis, and Karamanta, these matters add up and point to a dazzling one. Strategic objectives.
The three-party coalition forces will besiege or even annihilate the federal army!
The tide is rolling, the severe winter is approaching, Karamanta is basically split, communication between the garrison troops is interrupted, and the increasing water surface of the Seine River is blocking the attack of the federal army. On the contrary, the part of the other party's mission exploration has been completed, and the destruction and interference of the garrison troops are unfolding. With the joining of this mech unit, the residual star theft is organized, and the situation is bound to be more serious. What is particularly worrying is that Yunchao greatly increases the possibility of the other party's success. Even if it has been breached and its plan is known, there is still no effective way to stop it.
We must know that the federal army is still in an offensive situation. Even after receiving the news, it needs to verify and judge the authenticity before formulating corresponding strategies, and it is even more difficult to implement. At the same time, the cloud tide takes effect as quickly as a catalyst, bringing the harsh winter to this world. In this case, if the armored forces of the two empires could find a quiet way, they would cut across the front and rear ... What a terrible situation will be caused.
It is no exaggeration to say that by the time the Federal Army reacts, the situation is likely to be out of control.
According to past experience, the extreme low temperature reaches minus 70 degrees in severe winter! Based on the existing materials alone, the federal army cannot survive the winter of half a year, even if it does not fight, and the snow and the snow add to the fog, the various teams of the Hualong Federation can only curl up in humble camps to endure hunger and freeze, silently waiting for the end.
"Can't wait."
The most important thing is the time, the Thomas brothers stood up at the same time, two-way Niuben made a request.
"Please rush to the barracks without delay."
The title is in honor, the tone is a commanding tone. Little Thomas is so anxious that he can no longer care about the other party's feelings, and even the safety of his comrade-in-arms is set aside. In contrast, Big Thomas is still advancing, adding a moment after groaning.
"No word of mouth, you have to take the captive back to the barracks."
...
...
"Wait first."
First encountered the tide of cloud, then the accident of boarding the 6th boat, managed to survive, and then ran into this situation; Niu Ben can only sigh that his luck is really bad, and his mood is not easier than the Thomas brothers. But unlike the two brothers, he is more concerned about the third article mentioned by Defu, which is said to be uncertain.
According to captives, the dwarf was responsible for the pathfinder. But later, Ji Peng Empire came to a powerful role and replaced it as the supreme leader. There are various signs that the dwarf who has been taken away from command is so frightened and even afraid of the Ji Peng man that he dare not disobey his instructions.
For example, this time, the dwarf originally joined the rest of the people, and then accelerated at the request of the Ji Peng people to enter the Kakira Mountains in advance. From this point of view, the shot of the dwarf in Yao Village was not the original intention, but the order of the Ji Peng strong.
The dwarf is not a simple character, he has a huge reputation in the Star Thief circle. He wasn't even a good-looking star stealer, but in the depths of the blue sea, a force far larger than the good-looking star stealer, named "Red Baby".
The inside of the Blue Sea is mysterious and intricate, and the star theft forces are intricate, and the captives cannot provide more information. When the team came out, in order to prove that the gnome was qualified to lead this group of powerful pilots, they had once conducted a unique test, which included driving combat and melee. As a result, the dwarf's mini-mech easily defeated the pilot ’s representative, and hand-to-hand combat killed two powerful special soldiers alive, overwhelming the audience.
During battles, especially hand-to-hand combat, the gnome was more like a beast, and one of his soldiers was tore his throat and died. The three captives still remember the scene at that time. The gnome chewed on his opponent's flesh and sneered, and got rid of a little devil.
"That guy doesn't have a name, others call him by his nickname: Butcher."
When it comes to this, Blessing keeps pouting and stares, he can't tell whether it is envy or contempt. Probably from his point of view, Diao Niu Er is unknown, and that dwarf, who is not much taller than himself, has such a loud name.
"Ok."
Niuben nodded silently, taking down the information about the dwarf in his heart, and couldn't help worrying.
To what extent is the dwarf Ji Peng strong enough to make him lie down?
In his thoughts, Thomas Jr. urged again and again: "Don't worry about any butcher, do it quickly!"
"OK, all right."
Niu Ben agreed, but instead of going to the barracks as the Thomas brothers suggested, he put a maintenance arm and plunged it into the mech cockpit. When he knew the situation before, he had looked at the mech he had knocked down and had some knowledge of its damage. Now he has obtained the password from the prisoner's mouth and can repair it by hand.
It just takes time.
What's lacking right now is time.
"Asshole, you're losing fighter!"
As a mech veteran, the Thomas brothers have their own judgment on the condition of this mech and are quite reliable. Seeing Niuben's move, Little Thomas was furious and reached out his hands, trying to pull him out.
"The conditions here are too bad, even if it is just disassembly and assembly, how can it not be done within a few hours. The current situation does not allow this, I order you to come out immediately ... eh? Give me out!"
After two pulls, he couldn't pull. Little Thomas changed his face slightly and yelled for preparation. Suddenly Niuben turned around, calm eyes, with toughness that had never been shown before.
It's hard to explain why, this time looking at each other, Thomas feels completely different from before, and his heart is empty.
"He was impulsive. Don't get me wrong!"
Big Thomas's opinion is the same as his younger brother, but he can't help but stand up to persuade him and rebukes Little Thomas for letting go.
"Junk stuff, apologize!"
"But he ..." Thomas Jr. tried to justify.
"There are a few things to explain."
Niu Ben looked at the two and said, "First, you failed to complete your tasks and you made a big mistake. Second, I saved your lives and I am doing my best to make up for your mistakes. Second, you The military rank is not as high as mine, and I have no right to order it. Fourth, I also have tasks to do, and the importance is not worse than what I encounter now. "
"..."
The Thomas brothers looked at each other before realizing that the other party was an officer with the rank of Captain. If you follow the procedures, under the current circumstances, you are separated from your affiliated forces, and you should obey the command of the other party. Even speeches require saluting, reporting, and instructions.
Not only Niuben, but also Andre, who is assigned to perform the alert, is a veritable active duty officer and is said to have been designated as a major, only to be awarded a title after returning home. According to the current relationship between the two countries, Andre is equally qualified to command the Brothers Thomas as his soldiers. In this way, the Thomas brothers yelled at Niuben before, not only disrespectful to the boss, but also several levels.
"One more."
Niu Ben went on to say, "If you blame the current situation of the 38th Division to me and calculate the old accounts, I will be accompanied."
This......
The Thomas brothers were so cold that they realized that this well-known federal hero seemed loyal. In fact, he was narrow-minded, he must pay back, and he was easy to remember.
The key to turning the tide lies in the hands of such people.
Suddenly heavy, suddenly Thomas took a deep breath and said slowly: "The big picture is the most important thing. I can't think of anything more important than reporting the situation."
Niu Ben calmly said: "You can talk about the big picture while you are alive. The opponent is a mech unit and at least two strong. In the previous battle, the rest fled to the barracks, leaving you two deliberately turning them away. It took half an hour to get on the road. It can be inferred that we are likely to meet on the way back to the barracks. Considering that, whether it is to rescue or protect ourselves, you must be armed to get on the road. "
Big Thomas hesitated, "If our team members fail to return in time, what will the enemy attack the barracks?"
Niu Ben raised his eyebrows and said, "In the case of the thirty-eight divisions, the strength of the army is excellent, can you even keep the barracks?"
Thomas Jr. said angrily, "If it's just us, of course it's fine. The military sent us a waste, that ..."
"Shut up!" Big Thomas hurriedly stopped, embarrassingly saying, "The situation in the barracks is more complicated. In addition, you can see that the opponents are superior and unprepared ..."
Looking at the embarrassment of the two, Niu Ben frowned slightly and said after a moment of silence: "The opponent doesn't know these things, and the attack on the barracks may be very small. There is no way to really do that kind of thing."
"Ah?" Thomas hurriedly said, "That's the truth. But I still don't understand. There is nothing more important than reporting the military situation."
"Your level is not enough."
Niu Ben politely interrupted him and said indifferently: "The situation is special, and it may be okay to tell you. My boarding boat 6 has special equipment that can contact the rear and even space in the current situation."
"what?"
"what!"
After receiving so much bad news, I suddenly heard such good news. The Thomas brothers were stunned, then jumped up, ecstatic and excited, hoping to catch up and hug Niuben and kiss a few mouthfuls.
"Where is the equipment? Where is it?"
Since meeting, Thomas has forgotten how many times he has changed his face towards Niuben, sometimes hate and annoyed with hostility, and sometimes like a living Bodhisattva for the rescue of suffering. In contrast, Thomas was calm and reacted quickly after being excited.
"Since there is such a thing, it should be sent to the barracks immediately. No, you should report the situation directly to the command. After studying the countermeasures quickly, you will send instructions from top to bottom ..."
"Broken, Lao Wei and others are repairing." Niu Ben said lightly.
"what?"
Like a bang, Thomas looked dark and drunkenly said, "Who is Lao Wei?"
"Master Mech."
"Why not ship it to the barracks first?"
"Don't forget, we just met."
"now what?"
"There are enemies on the road, so we should act safely."
"Oh ..." The situation has been reversed three or five times, and Thomas, who has always been very opinionated, has lost his mind and asked, "So, what are we doing now?"
"Wait for Old Wei. Repair the mech." He said taking out the repair arm of the knocked-down mech, Niu Ben directly ordered: "Go, remove the headless mech."
...
...
In fact, the maintenance of mecha in the field and even on the battlefield often occurs. The most difficult part is not the environment and equipment, but the lack of necessary parts. The common problem is that when a critical component has to be replaced, no matter how good a mechanic is, he can only stare. Fortunately, there is no such problem at present. The opponent's three mechas are of the same model. It is inevitable that it will take time and effort to dismantle one and repair two. There is not much shortage in hardware.
The Thomas brothers also know about maintenance. Although they are not specialized, they know the key. What made them astounded was that when the repairs really started, the federal heroes brought more shock. In the face of a modified and unfamiliar mech, Niu Ben saw it through and found the key in a short time.
And that kid, absolutely a freak! I didn't know what he did. He narrowed his eyes and turned back and forth a few times before telling Niuben where to start. Then saw the maintenance arm flip up and down, a series of almost magic operations, the engine that had been shut down began to roar.
The most critical part is to solve the rest. This is why Niuben asked Thomas to dismantle the mech. It ’s useful and it ’s not necessary to take it apart first. It is used here to save time.
This is nothing, maintenance of the mecha is indispensable, and the Thomas brothers saw several times in the middle that Niuben hurled the removed external armor to his side and lifted it lightly. Soon they noticed that they lacked the mechanical conditions to perform such a high-intensity operation. They were so tired that they were about to break their waists, and there was no drop of sweat on Niuben's head, as if it were an icy machine.
All those who pass their hands are heavy alloy components, not plastic or foam!
It is not a complicated repair. The skills, strength, experience, vision, imagination and courage of the federal heroes are all amazing.
After less than an hour, the first Mecha resumed operation, although the condition could not be compared with the intact state, but for the little Thomas who boarded the test, this was clearly a miracle!
Entering the long-lost mech cockpit, Thomas still couldn't believe it was true, and a thought came to mind: if this guy was brought to the 38th Division to be a glorious mech repairman, then so perfect!
"What are you thinking about?"
With a hard thigh, Thomas returned to reality, remembering his comrades inexplicably, his fists clenched unknowingly.
"Brothers, hold on!"
