"There is a tarmac, why didn't planes be sent to support the front in the previous battle, but only ground troops?" Looking at the composition map of the Phoenix base, Liu Yan was a little puzzled, "Even if the Sijing people have air defense weapons, they haven't seen a single of our support aircraft, which is unreasonable." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"There is a tarmac, but there are no planes there." Lin Hai said, "The aircraft that were originally planned to be equipped with an apron base were delayed due to other reasons, and the new batch of aircraft will probably have to wait more than half a month before they can reach the base." ”

"Other reasons?" Liu Yan recalled the information he had seen before, and then understood the reason, "It's because Europe is in trouble right now, so our plane was sent to help them, right?" ”

"That's right. The situation of the armies of NATO countries that have left the support of the M Army can be said to be a mess," although Liu Yan had already understood the reason, Lin Hai still explained the situation in more detail, "Those old powers can barely keep their own land, those' A small country with a long history, but it can't withstand the attack of the Sijing people, even if the Sijing people don't send many main forces to go, it's the same, it is definitely impossible to defeat the Sijing people on their own, and at the same time, they can't count on other countries, everyone is already unable to protect themselves at this time, and no one can help anyone. ”

"So they found GDI?"

"Who said GDI was founded to protect humanity?" Lin Hai said helplessly, "Don't say that, GDI can't be established, after all, it's a military institution, not a charity, everyone is afraid of getting out of control, and there are naturally a lot of restrictions, if it weren't for the threat that Sijing people put in front of them, it would be impossible for human beings to set up such an institution." But now that GDI has emerged, it is only natural that the promise made when it was established needs to be met. Without faith, man does not stand. Although it is difficult or even almost impossible to fully achieve that step, at least those requirements that can be easily completed, we still need a lot of people to support us. Therefore, in accordance with the requirements of the Security Council, we have sent reinforcements to Africa, mainly combat aircraft, to Europe for ground support, so that the air support of the GDI forces here in Africa will naturally be reduced, and the few combat aircraft that are still concentrated in large bases. ”

"Is this a self-inflicted defeat of the Europeans?" Liu Yan said mockingly, "But it doesn't matter, this is not a big problem for us, the air support is just a late arrival, and our ground forces alone are enough to hold out for a long time." ”

"That's because your direct subordinates are clones, and you can't measure the armies of all the countries in this world by their standards, and you should know that. When you arrive at the Phoenix base and take over those defense groups, you will naturally be able to feel the difference for yourself. In short, don't look at the location of the Phoenix base, it is still relatively inside, but you can't be careless. ”

"This is the battlefield, and I know what to do."

Half an hour later, Liu Yan led his fully converged company into the Phoenix base, and it was Major Barney, the former commander of the base, who greeted him.

Seeing Liu Yan, although Major Barney was quite surprised, Liu Yan could guess why the other party was so surprised, because he himself was too young, compared to Lin Hai, Liu Yan looked a few years younger on the outside, even if he had experienced a lot of ups and downs - in fact, he was the same age as Lin Hai - Major Barney was just surprised that the person who came to take over his position was so young.

However, even though he was surprised that the person who had replaced him was so young and looked a little unreliable, Major Barney did not say much. Sitting in his current position proved that he was the oldest early member of the Defense Corps, and he knew very well that the identity of the core armed soldier who could command an entire company was not something that these peripheral members could match. Thinking too much is not good for him, and he is content with his current life.

So after greeting each other, the two hurriedly handed over the work, and Major Barney left on a transport plane with his personal belongings and a small entourage - that transport plane was specially sent to pick up Major Barney to leave, and originally his battalion was also going to leave with him, but under Lin Hai's care, the entire mechanized battalion continued to stay, anyway, the GDI officer who commanded them was also an Iron Eagle officer, and there was no technical problem.

Without sorting out his personal belongings, the first thing Liu Yan did after accepting the command of the base was to order the defense of the base to be doubled, but he remembered very clearly, Lin Hai had reminded him in his previous communication that this base was not as safe as it seemed.

Although he didn't understand what Lin Hai meant by this, because the other party didn't explain what he said, he also knew that this time was also a test, another test of his intelligence analysis ability, he had to analyze and make a correct judgment with the information he had access to at this level of confidentiality, in order to pass the test, and go to the next level, if he failed, I believe that his life would not be too much of a problem, and Lin Hai would definitely send a rescue, but he was afraid that the road to promotion in Iron Eagle would end here, Those clone officers would not be satisfied with an unqualified person like him becoming a high-ranking officer, even if he was iron enough with Lin Hai and the founding elder of Iron Eagle, he himself could not accept his incompetence.

After rearranging the defense plan on the basis of Major Barney's original defense, Liu Yan sat in front of the map and analyzed it in more detail again.

"Sir, all the sentry machine guns in this base have been activated, the patrol team has also doubled, and all the soldiers' guns and armor are not separated from their bodies, and the ammunition is also rationed at the maximum carrying." While he was studying the map, Second Lieutenant Cody - no, he can be called Lieutenant Cody now, as Liu Yan's deputy, one person has attained the Tao, and the chicken dog has ascended to heaven, and he has also been promoted to the rank of one rank - walked into the command center with two soldiers and reported the situation to him, "I also received a communication just now, the heavy equipment of the infantry battalion, that is, tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, and some heavy armored vehicles, will arrive in three days, and we should pay attention to receiving them." ”

"That's all up to you." Staring at the map, Liu Yan said without raising his head, "Three days? That means that within three days, this base could be attacked? ”

"Sir, as for you?" Lieutenant Cody asked puzzled, he didn't know what Lin Hai said to Liu Yan, some information was not something he could listen to at his level, whether it was a clone soldier or not, it was a matter of system and regulations, "Although the location of our base is not the kind of absolute easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the back of the mountain, so that we only have one side to face the enemy, as long as we ensure that the valley we rely on will not be occupied by the enemy at the highest point, we are basically invincible." ”

"That's why I think it's a little weird." Liu Yan replied to him, "The mine that this base is responsible for protecting is just in front of the exit of the base, and I don't understand why the mine is not included in the base's defense circle, but placed at the door. Although it may be because the area that needs to be protected will be increased several times, and the difficulty of defense will also increase, this is not a problem that cannot be solved. ”

"Probably because this is a position near the defense zone, so it's safer." Lieutenant Cody guessed, "But sir, it's not too much of a problem, we just need to hold out for three days." It's a big deal to shut down the mine for three days in these three days. This mine is not the most important large mine, it is just a medium-sized mine, and a three-day shutdown will not reduce the amount of ore mined, and we are not in a hurry to do that. ”

"If you really don't have a clue, you may end up having to do it." Liu Yan crossed his hands and ten fingers, put them in front of his mouth, and said after thinking for a while, "There is too little information to say, but Lin Hai's guy only said half of what he said, and he didn't say it all, which made me think nonsense." Maybe he's just taking the opportunity to test my abilities to see if I can analyze from the scarce information that what he said was just a false message. ”

"Anything is possible." Lieutenant Cody shrugged, then gestured to the base commander's lounge, "Whatever the case may be, I think you'll need a good rest." We've only finished a battle, and it's been hours now, so you should take a break, relax your nerves, and work on this stuff again. ”

"Can't you hurry up?" Liu Yan nodded, got up and prepared to go to the lounge to sleep for a while, and then analyze whether Lin Hai's reminder was a real reminder, or just to test whether he could see through the scam.

He had barely taken a few steps when his foot crooked and he almost fell flat on the ground. Fortunately, he immediately grabbed something next to him and supported himself.

Then, he heard an explosion coming from outside.

Then the door to the command center was opened, and a soldier rushed in, and without seeing the commanders, he shouted: "Enemy attack!" ”

Without waiting for Liu Yan to say anything, Lieutenant Cody took two of his men to crash into the soldier and rushed out. After Liu Yan glanced at the door that closed automatically, he also ran to the command platform. He knew that the explosion that could make him almost unstable was not a small movement, and the incoming enemy would definitely not be finished just by coming like this, and the Sijing people were not those terrorists, they liked to use car bombs to attack, and the Phoenix base was not something that could be destroyed by a terrorist attack such as a car bomb.

The monitoring screen of the command center has shown the real-time situation of the location of the explosion, the location of the explosion is outside the gate of the base, a sentry machine gun tower at the gate was completely destroyed in the explosion, and most of the soldiers guarding the door are gone.

There are only a handful of clone soldiers and even fewer natural soldiers still fighting the incoming enemy in that area, and it will take a little time for the rest of the base to arrive at the door for reinforcements. However, Liu Yan had already seen through the surveillance that several armored vehicles equipped with large-caliber cannons were driving towards the gate, and they would soon be able to support the guards at the gate.

As for the enemy, Liu Yan zoomed in on the image, and among the large number of Sijing cannon fodder troops, there were also a large number of human figures, among which there were many guys carrying human heavy weapons such as recoilless guns, anti-tank missiles, and rocket launchers.

Finally, by calling up the satellites passing overhead, he also saw a large number of heavy mortars attacking the rear of the enemy army - those were the ones who destroyed the guard tower, right?

As soon as he thought so, the other guard tower was also engulfed by the fireball with a loud bang! This time, the satellite discovered the source of the attack in time, a self-propelled gun was shelling ten kilometers from the base, which is considered very close in modern warfare, but the Phoenix base did not have any long-range firepower to reach the opponent, and there was no air support to destroy the self-propelled gun.

If Liu Yan didn't want to come up with some useful solutions, he could only watch the base be razed to the ground under the slow shelling of the other side.

"Huh? Is that......? Just as Liu Yan's brain reacted quickly, trying to find a solution to the current problem, Yu Guang saw a strange place on the map, which looked like a small village inhabited by locals from a distance, but the more advanced and clear satellite cameras of the Iron Eagle Fang made Liu Yan see the difference.

The village looked like a fairly ordinary village in the whole area, consisting of thatched, adobe houses surrounded by a water source. However, Liu Yan is well aware that after the GDI troops were fully stationed in various mining areas in Africa, the residents of the villages around the mines were basically relocated to safer places by the local government in cooperation with the GDI. Even if there are still people who are reluctant to leave, in these days, after many battles between GDI and Sijing, no matter how determined they are unwilling to leave, they will reconsider their original choice.

And unlike humans, even if it is a deserted village, humans may leave after inspection, but the Sijing people will definitely destroy the village, leaving no trace of humans.

Now seeing that the village in the war area was unharmed, Liu Yan naturally became suspicious. It's just that right now, even if he has the heart to send someone there to investigate the situation, he has to settle the current battle first.

"Contact the theater command, we need fire support!" After thinking about it, he ordered the signal corps to directly contact the command in charge of commanding the entire African theater of operations to ask for support, instead of going to Colonel Bretovs, who was in charge of the command of this area, anyway, the two sides inexplicably did not deal with each other, and he didn't need to be angry with that person, not to mention that even if he sent a request for support to the colonel who seemed to be congenitally hostile, the other party would not necessarily pay attention.

"Maybe we should first find out why this Colonel Bretowski is so hostile to Iron Eagle's troops, it stands to reason that we have never known each other before, and he may be the undercover agent we are looking for."
