Chapter 263 Encounter
"Active attack?"
Alan's decision even surprised Peter, but for the three of Lucy, they thought it was normal. / The silver-haired boy they are familiar with has never been a passive person. He has never shied away from the cruel competition in the death arena, the unreasonable provocations on Babylon, and even the battle between Netherworld and the Sword Demon.
This time is of course no exception.
"Are you serious? Second Lieutenant?" Peter said: "Even if the Sword Demon dispatches fewer troops, it will definitely outnumber us. If we take the initiative to attack, we will hardly have a chance of winning."
Others also looked at Allen suspiciously.
Allen didn't answer Peter's question directly. He walked to the window, looked at the base under the night and said, "When everyone heard the news of the sword demon's haunting just now, were you all scared? I can see it from your eyes. Come to think of it, it's normal to be afraid, and I'm afraid too. After all, no one is born a warrior."
He turned around and said, "We are afraid of war, afraid of losing our lives, and even more afraid that our families will have nothing to rely on after we die in battle. I think everyone in the base thinks the same way."
"But why are we still here, leaving our homes and coming to this distant galaxy. That's because if we don't stand up and choose to fight, the enemies here may appear on the earth! No one wants a second dawn We are fighting, so we are here. To protect our homeland and our family with our blood and even our lives."
Allen stepped on the floor: "The upcoming war here may be just an insignificant battle for this planet. But I want you to believe that the battle here, this base, will affect the battle of Pluto Star The result. Because in front of us is the holy site of the sword demon, which is the birthplace of their interstellar civilization. As long as it is destroyed, the defeat of the sword demon will be accelerated."
"At this moment, the Queen of Rose's army is already on the way. What we have to do is to hold on until they arrive. But blindly defending is not enough. We need to know the number of enemy troops, or even reduce their strength in advance, so as to reduce The pressure we have to face. Everyone, taking the initiative to attack is not just for the bravery of ordinary people, but for better defense. And, so that more people can survive!"
There was silence in the command hall, until Peter suddenly applauded: "If you want me to say, the second lieutenant really has the potential to be a politician, what a wonderful speech. But..."
"You're right, only softies can shrink into a tortoise shell, so let's have a good fucking time!" Peter said angrily, "I'll arrange the manpower, how many people do I need?"
"Hundreds of people are fine, but they must be matched with fire."
"receive.
"
Peter left the hall, and Allen looked at the remaining officers and said, "Then, can I entrust you with the defense of the base?"
"Of course!" An officer said loudly, "Don't worry, second lieutenant, we will do our best to defend!"
"Yes, let those sword demons know that we are not such an easy bone to gnaw!"
Allen said with satisfaction: "Then I can rest assured."
Then they winked at Lucy and the three, and the four left the command hall. When they came to the square, the commando team prepared by Peter had already assembled. Hundreds of soldiers got into the troop trucks one after another. Even the two main battle vehicles that had impounded Luda were dispatched to Peter, ready to serve as soldiers. For cover and rear use.
Allen and the others shared an off-road vehicle with Peter. After the soldiers opened the gate of the base, the commando vehicle drove out of the base and entered the wilderness surrounded by night outside the base. The wind in the wilderness was blowing, Peter was driving the driveway: "You know? You looked like a cowboy just now."
"Cowboy? What's that?"
"That was the product of the War of Daybreak, the pioneers of the Old West. They were brave, fearless, and a little bit stupid." Peter said with a laugh.
Allen put his hand on the car door, propped his chin and said, "It doesn't sound bad."
"Yeah. So cowboy, what do we do next?"
"Go to the sentinel first. There has been no wind and snow in the past few days, and the sword demon will definitely leave traces. Let's follow these traces to their camp and give them a fireworks feast by the way." Allen turned his head back The two main battle tanks glanced.
"What a great idea!"
After arriving at the sentry point under attack, Allen had to thank the good weather without wind and snow for the past few days, which completely preserved the traces of the knife demon's departure after he succeeded. He himself is an expert in tracking, and the sword demon has never been a cautious master, as long as the traces left behind can be seen by anyone who is not blind, naturally there is no difficulty in tracking. It's just that the direction pointed by the traces shows a place more and more clearly.
Not Winter Lake!
The convoy was advancing under the darkness, the barren land was silent, and the atmosphere was extraordinarily dignified, like the calm before the storm. Allen gradually felt that something was wrong. When he saw a light appearing on the dim horizon, he yelled: "Stop!"
The vehicle stopped quickly, and Allen grabbed the binoculars, stretched himself, and jumped onto a nearby hill. After the binoculars turned on the night vision mode, an army was approaching from afar on the blue wilderness.
"What's going on?" Peter followed suit.
Allen kept adjusting the sight distance of the telescope, and said, "It's the sword demon. They traveled overnight. At this speed, they can reach the vicinity of the base before dawn."
"There are quite a few." Peter also held up his binoculars to observe.
Suddenly, some tall figures flashed through the telescope. Peter quickly pulled the camera over, and it was fixed on a few giants covered with scales and without facial features. The lieutenant gasped and said, "Damn it, I won the lottery, it's a troll!"
Allen also saw those giants, but fortunately there were not many of them. However, these twenty or so trolls are enough to form an attacking team. Even if they advance to the three defensive walls of the base, they may not be able to withstand the collision of these trolls.
They must die here!
At this time, Allen made up his mind. If these trolls are allowed to participate in the battle, even if the base can be held in the end, there will be heavy casualties. He put down the binoculars and said, "Lieutenant, I need you to lead someone to attract the enemy's attention."
"Are you going to clean up those trolls?" Peter is not stupid, and the destructive power of such trolls has been mentioned more than once in the Federation's battle report. Several federal strongholds on the Alex Plains were trampled down by hordes of trolls.
"Of course, we can't let those big guys mess around. These trolls are at the rear of the army, and I have to go around. You lead people to attract the attention of their main force, don't want to fight, it's best to break up their formation .”
"I know how to do it."
The two hurried back to the ground, and then all the soldiers got off the truck. Allen picked about twenty people, took Lucy and the three drove a truck to the wilderness. They wanted to bypass the sword demon's army and surprise the twenty or so trolls from the rear. Peter led other soldiers forward, looking for an ambush position. The main battle tank followed, and the two tanks would keep a certain distance from Peter and the others, providing fire repulsion when they retreated.
As for the trucks, they stayed where they were and stood by. Once Peter and the others came back, they could retreat immediately, throwing off the pursuers at the speed of the trucks.
All the arrangements were completed in a short period of time. Allen and the others didn't have time to discuss in more detail when things happened suddenly, so they had to adapt to the situation.
Ten kilometers away, Peter found a suitable location for an ambush. The terrain here is undulating, and there are piles of rocks, which are just used as cover. Immediately gesturing, the soldiers dispersed. Peter himself took a magic sniper/gun, and found a high ground with a wide view to lie down. There was a cigarette in his mouth, but the cigarette was not lit. Pete just habitually bit his cigarette butt, smelling a hint of tobacco in his nostrils.
The two main battle tanks have entered the standby state, and the soldiers have completed the arrangement of the shooting array, and everything is waiting for the enemy to send it up.
At this moment, Peter was strangely not feeling the slightest bit nervous. Obviously, the flames on the horizon are getting brighter and brighter, and you can even feel the earth shaking slightly. But at the end of the great battle, Peter's thoughts drifted far away. He thought of the days when he was young, he often had to risk being beaten to death for a piece of bread in order to barely survive.
He was adopted by a disabled veteran who taught him many things for a living. And that time was also the happiest, but the good times didn't last long. During the looting by the bandits, the village that had been there for three years was burnt down, and his adoptive father was also killed in the resistance.
Afterwards, it was a period of homeless life. It was not until he met her that Peter had roots and stopped wandering.
"Wendy, are you okay..." he quietly asked himself.
The firelight pierced his eyes, and Peter took a deep breath, hiding that gentle face deep in his heart. Unknowingly, time passed quickly, and the forward of the sword demon army could already be seen.
In the vanguard of the enemy army, a demon stands out. In the scope of Peter's sniper/gun, this demon is riding a bloody horned wolf, which is a heterogeneous bloodthirsty wolf among the horned wolves. Riding on the blood wolf is a commander. He does not wear armor like other sword demons. Instead, his upper body is bare, and a heavy crescent ax hangs on his back, which looks like a battle madman.
The cross star in the sight was fixed on the commander's forehead. At this moment, the sword demon's eyes in the sight came over. Peter's hand pressed the trigger steadily, a light blue light flickered in the sight, and then the commander's entire head exploded, but it was a sniper bullet that was condensed by the source force.
It was at this moment that the rough voice of the mana sniper/gun resounded in the deserted mountains, thus kicking off the prelude to the battle.
At the center of the army, Kamu rode a hellfire war beast. When he heard the gunshots, the sword demon general's expression changed, and he pointed his sword at the source of the gunshots and shouted: "There is an ambush, rush to me! Kill all human beings and step forward on their corpses."
In a word, the fierce nature of the sword demon is exhausted.
