False Court
Chapter 313 Discussion
Kanis's idea was simple. Although he wasn't launching a large-scale attack and was waiting for Putmi and the others to arrive, he didn't intend to let the enemy off easy.
Even if the airstrikes weren't very effective, it didn't matter.
Su Mo piloted the Slaughter Blade, moving at high speed to dodge the attacks. When he got too annoyed by being hit, he would turn his beam cannon around and blast one or two fighters down.
Just then, Sun Li's anxious voice sounded in the shared communication channel.
"Xue-jie."
"What's wrong?"
Qian Chengxue asked.
"The troops chasing our tails are catching up. Drones have already detected them."
"What does Legion Commander Xiao Wen say?"
"Legion Commander Xiao Wen is now directing us to set up a reverse defense line on the spot, preparing to resist the battle. But this is just a temporary solution."
Sun Li replied uneasily.
"Follow Legion Commander Xiao Wen's orders. From now on, his orders are my orders."
Qian Chengxue instructed.
"Understood!"
Sun Li replied immediately.
Hearing this, Su Mo said, "It seems our leisurely time is coming to an end. Logically speaking, their speed shouldn't be that fast? They've suddenly accelerated."
"I'm not sure, something probably went wrong somewhere."
Qian Chengxue replied calmly.
Of course, they wouldn't know that the enemy's sudden acceleration was because the Wet God Guild players had all been left behind, increasing their speed.
Just then, Xiao Wen's voice sounded in the communication channel.
"Su Mo, Qian Chengxue, you two come back here immediately. Chen Shan, you take people to watch over Blackrock Fortress."
"Understood!"
Su Mo and the others responded one after another.
.......
A moment later, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue piloted their mecha, leaving Blackrock Fortress and returning to the temporary camp behind them.
They saw tanks lined up in formation, and various artillery launching devices were being set up in the rear.
Moreover, a large number of players were dismantling the tarpaulins on the transport vehicles, taking out the weapons, looking like they were preparing for a desperate battle.
Su Mo and Qian Chengxue opened their cockpits and jumped down from the mecha.
They climbed into the command vehicle next to them.
They saw Xiao Wen with his hands behind his back, staring at the regional map spread out on the table, while Ma Qi stood beside him, but this time he was wearing clothes.
"Legion Commander Xiao Wen."
Qian Chengxue called out.
"You two come here."
Xiao Wen beckoned to Su Mo and the others.
Then the two of them went over, and Xiao Wen pointed to the area behind them and said, "The situation is very critical, so I'll make it short. Putmi's troops will arrive in the combat zone in no more than five hours and launch an attack on us. Although I've unloaded all the transport weapons, ready to use them all up. But even so, we can't possibly beat them. More importantly, as soon as I start fighting here, Kanis will definitely come out in full force, and I can't handle both sides, so we must severely damage one side first."
"What do you need us to do?"
Su Mo replied calmly.
"Ma Qi has scouted out the two main points of firepower that Kanis is most proud of. One is the fleet on the Sky Canal, and the other is the artillery position on the shore. I want you to destroy them with nuclear mines."
"What is the degree of their concentration?"
Qian Chengxue asked.
"Ma Qi will explain the specifics to you."
"I took the risk to scout last night, and the fleet on the Sky Canal is very dense. As long as a nuclear mine is used, I can guarantee that they will be in deep trouble. But there is a very troublesome problem. Although Kanis is arrogant, he is not a fool. Many of those ships are destroyers with extremely strong anti-air capabilities. If you launch nuclear mines from a long distance, the probability of interception is at least 90%. Not to mention the artillery position on the other side of the shore, it is almost impossible to hit."
"Are you saying that we can only launch from close range?"
Su Mo asked with a headache.
"That's right."
Ma Qi replied very affirmatively.
Hearing this, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue were speechless. No matter how strong a third-generation mecha is, it probably couldn't withstand a nuclear mine attack head-on.
But looking at this situation, it seems there is no other way.
"What about the artillery position on the other side of the shore?"
Qian Chengxue asked solemnly.
"That side is too far away, and time is limited, so I can't scout the situation. But judging from my observation of the fleet, this Kanis seems to have obsessive-compulsive disorder. Those ships are arranged in a very neat formation, so it is very likely that the artillery positions are also clustered together. After all, in his eyes, we are just lingering enemies who have completely lost air supremacy, so he doesn't have to worry about the safety of the artillery positions at all."
Ma Qi gave a specific analysis.
"Can I ask what our nuclear mine looks like, how big is it?"
Su Mo asked solemnly.
"The nuclear mine I'm escorting this time is the hCr-02 tactical nuclear mine. To be honest, although it is not very large, it is not small either. It is about the size of a conventional missile. I will install it on a portable launcher for mecha, and you can carry it directly to launch, just like a rocket launcher. At that time, I will let Chen Shan and the others cover your launch."
Xiao Wen said to Su Mo and the others.
"Let us think about how to do it."
Su Mo's expression became more and more solemn. This plan seemed simple, but the difficulty of implementation was actually not small. First of all, the opponents would not be stupid enough to watch you walk up to their faces and launch nuclear mines at them. They would definitely launch crazy attacks. This point can actually be confronted with the ability of the third-generation mecha. But it is not so easy to survive the explosion after detonation.
"Or, we two will kill them. After detonating at close range, you hide behind me and sacrifice the Yuanmo mecha." (Yuanmo mech = Abyss Demon mech)
Qian Chengxue thought for a while and told Su Mo her idea.
"No."
Su Mo rejected this proposal.
"Apart from letting the Yuanmo serve as a shield, there is no other way to resist the explosive shock."
"Shield, wait, can't we just bring a giant shield? It's like the shield in the hands of your Dawn Guardian before, but it has to be larger."
Su Mo suddenly reacted. As long as they brought a giant shield that could withstand the explosive shock, wouldn't everything be solved easily?
Qian Chengxue turned to look at Xiao Wen.
"Does the legion have one?"
"I'm sorry, due to the sudden incident, we don't have that kind of professional giant shield that can withstand the impact of a nuclear mine. Not to mention that the giant shield must also cover the third-generation mecha. You have to know that under normal circumstances, we don't have third-generation mecha."
Xiao Wen replied regretfully.
After hearing this, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue fell silent again.
Just then, an urgent air raid siren sounded in the camp, followed by the chaotic sound of missiles being launched.
Then there was a huge explosion from the distant sky.
