34. Can you retreat?
Win!
Seeing this scene, Captain Zhang was immediately overjoyed, but he didn't realize that he was too focused on external objects, and his attention had already been evacuated, and on the battlefield, a person who was not single-minded could die of a horizontal death.
Poof!
The sound of the blade entering the flesh and the sharp pain in his abdomen brought Captain Zhang back to his senses, and when he looked down, it was the robot that had just been cut off by himself that had not yet "died", and with the last bit of function, the blade was sent into his abdomen.
"Die!" Captain Zhang was ruthless in his heart, and endured severe pain and slashed down, destroying the energy center of this robot.
"Captain Zhang, are you alright?" There were soldiers next to him who saw that he was injured, and important questions were asked.
Captain Zhang laughed, "I can't die, continue the war!" ”
As he spoke, he endured his injuries and threw himself into the field again.
On the other hand, after handling the black robot, Huang Zheng also quickly entered the field, and the blessing of the explosive situation made the general robot have no enemy, just like a tiger entering a flock, and he was killed in the middle of the field in a moment.
After his death, the soldiers looked at him as if they were a god.
"Iron Sword - Fang!"
Immediately afterward, the roar of the sword exploded, and the trajectory of his sword formed two right angles, carving a square pattern into the robot's chest, and the latter's attack came to a halt, and then a square piece of iron with a blue battery slipped off his chest.
"Extreme Spark!"
Almost at the same time, a straight beam of light rose into the sky with seemingly invincible power, and under the beam, sparks and black smoke continued to flash from the pierced chest of the last black robot.
After the three black robots were smashed, the situation in the field was gradually tilted towards the human side, and the robots did not particularly love to fight this time, seeing that the overall situation had been decided, they immediately waited for two waves, one wave of desperate attacks, and the other wave was under the protection of the attack queue to bear the "remains" of the three black robots, and first slowly retreated.
What else can those guys bear?
Huang Zheng's heart moved, he had already seen the robot's vain intentions, but after thinking for a few seconds, he finally gave up the interception...... If he makes a move, all the robots will fight to the end, and the human side has already suffered heavy casualties, and the war continues, for fear that few people will survive in the end.
The lesser of the two phases is compared to the possibility of the "new life" of the three black robots, and it is doubly important to save the surviving human soldiers.
In the end, with the attitude of both sides intending to end the war, the surviving more than 400 robots retreated to the territory with the "remains" of three black robots, and the battlefield was filled with smoke and blood, and in addition to the remains of more than 500 robots, there were more than 100 human remains.
The casualties of five to one, judging from the data, seem to be a great victory for humans, but robots can be mass-produced indefinitely, except for advanced robots, the vast majority of them are consumables, but humans are one less dead. Originally, there were only more than 400 soldiers in the seventh base, and the logistics personnel had to be put aside, and after this battle, how much combat power could there be?
Even Huang Zheng is very difficult to deal with this matter with a contemplative attitude.
"Captain Zhang?" Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a figure slowly falling.
Huang Zheng immediately rushed to this person, helped him up, and lowered his head to see that Captain Zhang's lower body had been stained red with blood, and the wound between his abdomen was cut open and even his intestines were exposed, and his whole face was like gold paper, and he was in danger.
Huang Zheng quickly took out a pill and stuffed it into the other party's mouth, but at the same time, he also knew that this could only make Captain Zhang return to his glory...... He had lost too much blood and had not been treated in time, and had already gone away.
And even so, Captain Zhang still showed a slight smile, "Twelve, I killed twelve, don't lose ......"
"Captain Zhang......" Huang Zheng was speechless for a while, Captain Zhang took the lead in battle, and treated the three of them very well, Huang Zheng's impression of him was still a good match, but even so, knowing that the other party was going to die, it was difficult for him to have any sad feelings.
"I joined the army at the age of fifteen, and it has been twelve years since I died, and I have no regrets in my heart, but ......" Captain Zhang firmly grasped Huang Zheng's arm and gritted his teeth, "Even if there are no reinforcements, even if there are only a few hundred people, the seventh base will still not be lost!" Without the natural danger of the seventh base, the robot can be invincible...... Second Lieutenant Lin, I have entrusted you with it...... From now on, you will be the supreme commander of the seventh base, help me...... Hold ......"
“…… I will. ”
"Thank you, I believe in you...... So I can go with peace of mind......" Captain Zhang's strength gradually weakened, with a happy smile on his face, but at the end of his life, Huang Zheng saw tears slipping down his eyes, "I really want to go home and see...... My mother, my daughter-in-law, have children who are about to be born...... I'm sorry for them......"
The moment the sound stopped, Captain Zhang's hand also slipped down tiredly.
Huang Zheng sighed secretly and silently closed his eyes for him.
……
Half an hour later, the soldiers carried the bodies of their comrades back to the base square, looking at the dead comrades, their faces were filled with grief, and Captain Zhang's sacrifice cast an indissolvable shadow in their hearts, they either sat on the ground, or stood next to the deceased comrades, staring blankly, as if they had missed the goal and energy.
"This detachment is ...... Finished. ”
There was a pessimistic look in the eyes of the sword dancers, before this, this detachment was only demoralized, under the leadership of sophisticated armament and excellent commanders, it was still worthy of a battle, but at this time, their morale had been defeated, their fighting spirit was gone, and there was no longer any fighting spirit in their eyes.
Such a queue is tantamount to the walking dead.
If you want to rely on them to defend the seventh base, it is already a matter of impossibility.
"Finished? I don't believe it. Huang Zheng shook his head when he heard his words, "In the world, everything is possible, and human beings will never fail in hope." ”
Leaving such a sentence, Huang Zheng slowly walked onto the high platform without any soldiers noticing, his eyes swept over the soldiers below one by one, and spoke softly.
"Everyone, I'm Lin Luo......"
Huang Zheng walked up to the high platform and looked at the hundreds of soldiers below who seemed to have lost their fighting spirit, but very few of these soldiers were looking at him, "I believe that my friends already know me, as a second lieutenant in the seventh base, I want to say a few words to my friends at this time...... Well, you don't seem to be listening, look at your appearance, it's a. ”
Some of the soldiers raised their heads, but did not say a word, yes, they were very sloppy at this time, and no one knew this better than themselves, and was tired of arguing.
"As a soldier, I really feel humiliated for you, but I won't look down on you, because in today's war, we have seen the horror of robots, and we have killed too many of our compatriots, and even the highest commander of the base, Captain Zhang, is shrouded in horse leather. In the face of death, each of us will feel terrified, this is the world, I know you, so, any of you want to escape from this base, I will not intercept, because that is your livelihood rights, you are not afraid of being far away in front of your family, wife, children and friends, someone points to your backbone and says: Look, this is a deserter. ”
All the soldiers shook their bodies and looked up at Huang Zheng on the high platform, their eyes flashed with humiliation and resentment, but ...... If you can get out of here, it would be good?
"It's best, you will still be humiliated, and you will be resentful, just analyze that your will has not been broken, but your pressure is too great." Huang Zheng nodded and continued, "Today Captain Zhang died, died by my side, before he died, he told me that he wanted to go home to see his elderly mother, to see his long-lost daughter-in-law and unborn child, but he never had this opportunity, he said that he was sorry for his mother, sorry for his daughter-in-law, and even more sorry for the child who had never even seen him. In fact, I think so, his mother raised him so much, but he died young, his daughter-in-law married him, but he will be a widow for the rest of his life, and as a father, he has never taught his children at all, and he is a son of man, a husband in vain, and a father in vain...... But! He is worthy of mankind, worthy of the homeland he guards! ”
Some of the soldiers clenched their fists with tears in their eyes.
"Captain Zhang is an ordinary soldier, he has no superhuman skills, and he does not have extraordinary dexterity, but today, he bravely took the lead, with his flesh and blood, he smashed twelve robots, even before he died, he did not take a step back. He was undoubtedly a respectable soldier, and although he died, he was worthy of the burden entrusted to him by mankind, and worthy of the land he defended! Life is average, death is great, and I am proud of him. ”
"At the last moment before he took his last breath, Captain Zhang handed over the supreme authority of the 7th Base to me, not because I was stronger than him, let alone because I was more clever than him, but because I was already the last lieutenant officer of the 7th Base...... To be honest, I'm under a lot of pressure, because from this moment on, my life will no longer be just my life, I will be burdened with your human life in everyone, and his unfulfilled obligations, but I can't live up to what he expects of me, so that's all I can do, right? Huang Zheng smiled self-deprecatingly.
The warriors all looked at him silently, not knowing what he was going to say.
Then Huang Zheng shook his head and continued: "But compared to me, your pressure is even greater, because what you are guarding is not only this seventh base, there is the future and hope of mankind. Battles have never been something that can be stopped by one person, but it requires thousands of soldiers, with their blood and bodies to build an invincible city wall, with their sacrifices and dedication to pave a long road of blood, but it seems that human ability to see the future, and whether it is you and me or Captain Zhang, they are only one of them. ”
"You're about to ask, is there any use for guarding the seventh base? Is it really worth it that we have no salvation and no permanent defense, and that the enemy is never-ending, and that we must use our will to survive every hopeless cold night? Is this battle really about humanity's future and hope? ”
"The only thing I can reply to you is......" Huang Zheng's gaze swept over the faces of the soldiers one by one, as if looking at everyone, and said loudly, "Although the world is vast, we have no way back, because behind us is our hometown!" ”
Hearing this, the warriors' eyes widened, and at this moment, they thought of their home, their parents, wives and children, and the people around their relatives...... Yes, it's not for nothing that they're here for nothing, not only for the future and hope of humanity, but also for their homeland, to protect their parents, wives and children, and once they retreat from here, flee from here, the army of cyborgs will be invincible and reach their homeland!
Will they be able to retreat?
