Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 686 Accountability

In the blink of an eye, it was already sunset, but the high-altitude battlefield above the canyon was still in full swing. In the beginning, the starships of the Catu family cooperated with the giant Grai, and there was a strong tendency to counterattack. But with the passage of time, without the support of tactics, the disadvantages of the alien fleet began to appear. Under the steady offensive of the federal fleet, the air battlefield of the alien fleet began to shrink. They abandoned their previous strategy of desperate attack, and instead took the initiative to defend.

However, this situation is even worse. Neither the Catus nor the Gelai people are good at defense, and the defense line built by them can be said to be full of loopholes. It was just that after the daylight killed a dark titan for Komon, the remaining dark titans retreated into the army. One is to avoid the possibility of confrontation with the strong Federation, and the other is to sit in the army so that the Federation fleet does not dare to approach too much.

While the battle in the air battlefield is in full swing, the ground battlefield has gradually entered a white-hot stage. After the outer battle zone in the canyon was broken through by hunting groups and death-spreading ground forces, the flames of war have begun to spread to the secondary battle zone. Here is only one step away from the final position of this general offensive, but the fierceness of the battle is not inferior to that of the air battlefield.

Arriving here, the mission of the hunting group has come to an end. Many teams returned to the camp, and An waited for the final result of the war. However, there are also teams who are unwilling to be lonely and follow the main force of the army to go deep into the theater and continue to accumulate military exploits. But the second-level war zone is no better than the outer defense line. The Catu people stationed five main barracks here, and each barracks has nearly a thousand soldiers. Coupled with the help of a hundred Grai giants, this ground war is not easy to fight.

The battle lasted from day to night, and two of the five main barracks were knocked out, and the remaining three barracks were still more than enough to maintain the defense line of the theater. Although the Federation had the upper hand, it also suffered nearly a thousand casualties. Especially those hunting groups that went deep with the army, due to the lack of control over them, many teams refused to listen to dissuasion, resulting in heavy casualties, and some of them were wiped out. When the fighting stopped today, after the statistics of the camp staff and the release of casualty data in the form of battle reports, the hunting group had more than 200 people killed in battle today. Among them, nearly 80% died in the second-level war zone, which is quite shocking.

After all, the total number of members of the hunting group participating in the Rin Frost War was only about 500 people. But in today's battle, most of them were lost. I don't know how many young people whose families put high hopes on them, just sleep forever on the battlefields of foreign lands.

In the federal camp, many people sighed as they watched the real-time battle reports circulating on the screen. At this time, there was commotion in the direction of the gate of the camp, and several troop transport vehicles drove into the camp. As soon as the flying car came in, the ambulance soldiers in the camp rushed up, and then lifted off the flying car one by one of federal soldiers with varying degrees of injury. Now the first aid area is overcrowded, and there are so many soldiers waiting to use the body repair machine that they have to queue up until tomorrow morning. And some seriously injured people even had no time to give first aid, so they finally died in the camp.

For this situation, the ambulance soldiers can only groom them a little bit, and then put them into the frozen body bag, waiting to be transported back to the earth for burial. These war dead who died in the camp were considered lucky. They could at least return to their hometowns, but there were no bones left, and even the nameplates could not be recovered.

This is war.

From one of the troop carriers, several people jumped out unharmed. When the ambulancemen stepped forward to check them, they were stopped by a tall man in black armor. Seeing that the other party was carrying a war hammer full of spikes, the ambulance soldier dismissed the idea of ​​asking questions, and ran towards the other wounded with interest. The other party voluntarily refused to check, but the ambulance soldiers were happy and relaxed. After all, there are so many wounded soldiers, but the number of ambulance soldiers is limited.

After Reina dismissed the ambulance soldier, he said to Regis, "Go back to the dormitory with His Highness."

"And you?"

"I'm going to settle accounts with the people in the command room!" Reina said with a gloomy face.

After they withdrew from the valley belt, they encountered several enemy soldiers on the way back, and finally arrived at a rendezvous point in the war zone before they were able to return to the camp in a troop carrier. Hearing that Renner was going to settle accounts with the command center, Lucy raised her head and said, "I'll go too, they must give an explanation."

"Your Highness, I know you are very angry, and at the same time worried about Alan. But now, I think what you need most is rest. It's okay for me to come forward about this matter. Although Bethkind is not a rich family, we are not being forced A bastard who dares not make a sound at the mercy of others." Reina was full of anger, and strode towards the direction of the camp command center.

Regis gave Lucy a hand, and the latter nodded helplessly.

In the command room of the camp, several colonels were deducing the details of the ground war, preparing for tomorrow's battle. At this time, a soldier ran in in a panic and reported to a stable middle-aged colonel: "Colonel Siris, Rainer from the Bethkind family has requested to meet with General Catherine."

"Nonsense!" The colonel known as Serris stroked the bushy beard around his chin and said, "The general is currently directing the air battle on the helicarrier. If you have time to see him, blow him away."

At the end of the sentence, several soldiers outside the door screamed and fell a few times. But they were obviously not hurt, and they quickly got up from the ground again. It's just that everyone looked at the door in panic, Serris looked, and the door was suddenly filled with a block of figures. Holding a warhammer, Reina walked in with a murderous look. Serris cursed secretly, stepped forward and shouted: "What are you doing? Is this a place where you come and go casually? Get out of here!"

Renner sneered and said, "What a great authority, but a colonel dares to point fingers at me?"

Serris' face changed. He was born on the surface, and he has paid a lot to get to this position step by step as a commoner. On weekdays, what the colonel looked down on the most was the faces of those noble children. Obviously, Reina vividly interpreted the arrogance and rudeness of the nobles. Serris immediately turned his eyes cold, and said: "Even Beth Keld must abide by military discipline in the army. Don't think that nobles and wealthy families can really do whatever they want. If you really think so, I will make you regret it!"

Reina laughed out loud, and when Serris turned blue from the laughter, he lowered his head and said, "When it comes to arbitrary actions, we can't compare to your federal military, right?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean?" Reina narrowed his pupils and roared angrily: "If your military is not so arbitrary, why I, Bethkind, got the strategic mission and the actual situation is far from the actual situation. Our goal is clearly written in the mission It's just a defensive battle fort, but in fact, that marching route sent us to the main barracks on the enemy's ground!"

"Is this called a mission? This is asking us to die!" Reina said coldly: "Although I, Bethkind, are not rich, but if anyone thinks that this can use some dirty means against us, our family is willing I will accompany you to the end. Even if it is your federal military department, we dare to provoke you. But I wonder if you, a colonel, can bear such a responsibility?"

Serris was at a loss for words at the moment, if even though Reina made trouble for no reason, then Serris still didn't take it to heart. But if Reina's accusation is not groundless, then there will be a big problem. With Bethkind's momentum in the past two years, some people have already asserted that in ten years, this family will definitely become a wealthy family. And even the federal government is unwilling to offend such a huge family casually, let alone a civilian colonel?

Furthermore, if what Reina said is true, then Seris has no reason to provoke him. If Bethkind's mission was maliciously modified, Colonel Kelso, who was in charge of the mission release, would have to come forward to explain it, and it wouldn't be wrong for him, Serris, to force his way for him.

The colonel immediately said: "Mr. Rainer, your accusation is very serious. I want to know, what evidence do you have?"

"Evidence? At this time, you still want to use evidence to prevaricate me?" Reina laughed angrily: "There were five people when we left the camp, but there were only three people left when we came back. The ones who didn't come back were Alan and Belmore De, as long as you pay a little attention to their previous combat performance and strength assessment, you will know that it is impossible to keep the two of them in a battle fort with fifty soldiers. Fighting bloody warriors, do you think we will return with reduced staff? And now, you want me to show evidence!"

The murderous aura was like a wave, and it was like a storm was set off in the command room, and the breath full of Reina's anger swept every corner. The non-combat staff officers all chattered, looking at the colonels helplessly.

Serris's face turned blue and red, and as far as Reina was concerned, he didn't have to lie. But this means that a certain high-ranking official in the army used the convenience of his public office to ruthlessly deal with Bethkind. Not to mention that there were only five of them in this hunting group, even if their death-spreading regular army collided with the opponent's main barracks, it would be a hard fight. Hearing that there are still bloody warriors, then Reina's credibility is even more inseparable.

After all, it was not until today's surface war that the military knew that the bloody warriors of the Gatu tribe also participated in this war. They were the armed forces of the Manshi Xingsheng Temple. Apart from the military, what the outside world knows about it is wrong. Since Renner can call bloody warrior, it shows that what he said may be true.

When Colonel Serris didn't know how to step down, a gust of cold air gushed out from the gate of the command room, and that gust of air overwhelmed Reina's murderous aura and suffocated him. When Reina turned around, he saw a black cloak burning like flames in his eyes. Catherine's black and gray ponytail jumped into his eyes. The youngest female general of the Federation glanced at the field and said to Reina: "This matter is not as simple as you imagined. I already know about the replacement of your mission. And I am tracking down the instigator, and at the same time actively launching the rescue of your missing members. Mr. Rainer, please believe that the Federal Army The Ministry is not so stupid to do this kind of self-destruction of the city wall."
