It was autumn season, and the dense and even somewhat crowded primeval forest was full of golden colors, and the squirrels walking through the branches of the trees were busy with the pine towers in the heat to prepare the last and most abundant dinner.2 The edge of the forest was covered with snow, and from here to the north, the majestic snow-capped mountains and the pale blue glacial layers in the distance of Taniguchi were clearly visible.

The temporary camp of the headquarters of the new 17th Division was in a circular base at the edge of the forest. The base that the Imperials had been running for decades had been battered by the Federal Army's counter-offensive, but many of its building blocks were still intact.

In a room on the third floor of the base, more than a dozen federal officers stared at the communication station that suddenly lost all sound, their faces stiffened slightly, and then they collectively turned their heads to look at the division commander who was looking at the wide electronic map in a daze.

They knew very well that no one could control the young technical director at the deputy division level, but after all, this was the federal army, and Lieutenant Colonel Xu Le actually took the initiative to cut off the communication of the division headquarters like this, which was really unusual, and more importantly, the officers guessed what the mecha test team in the far north was preparing to do at this time, so their expressions became more and more heavy, and they wanted to know how the division commander would react.

Major General Yu Chenghai, the commander of the new 17th Division and a well-known good old man in the federal military, was surrounded by the eyes of many subordinates, and then laughed unexpectedly to everyone, there was no self-deprecation in his smile, "Lieutenant Colonel Xu Le even dared to pinch the passage of the Charter Bureau, so I am not surprised." ”

Seeing the reaction of the division commander, the officers at the end felt slightly strange, and immediately understood, and lowered their heads a little unnaturally, thinking that they should have guessed that this chubby and gentle division commander could not have enough courage to do something.

However, at this moment, Division Commander Yu Chenghai surprised everyone, and said with a gentle smile, "Inform Regiment Commander Helei to let his regiment enter a combat state and prepare to maneuver to the north within four hours." Staff officers Xiaofuzi, go to space to ask for the direction of the Qinglong before the geomagnetic storm, the direction of the special first army, the second regiment and the third regiment, slowly approaching from the direction of Poling to the northwest, pay attention, stay away from the guys of the Iron Seventh Division, if you encounter the Dongfang Oil regiment, don't pay attention. ”

The officers in the room looked at the division commander in a daze, unable to digest the words they heard in a short period of time, is the division commander preparing the whole division to attack to support? Is this still the useless division commander who only knows how to eat all day long, speaks softly to his superiors and subordinates, and smirks again and again, and has no courage in the eyes of everyone

Division Commander Yu Chenghai, who was already over half a hundred years old, scratched the gray hair on his head, looked at his subordinates who looked at each other, and said with a gentle smile, "What are you doing here?

Only then did the officers wake up, with a hint of excitement, three points of puzzlement, six points of doubt and a collective salute, ready to start carrying out the division commander's military orders, but they still seemed a little hesitant to move.

Deputy Chief of Staff Ning He also couldn't understand what Division Commander Yu was suddenly crazy about today, and reminded him in a low voice beside him, "The situation has been reported to space, but the headquarters has not heard back from the matter of a certain unit of the Special First Army being circled, and the geomagnetic storm and snowstorm over there are still continuing, and the situation is unknown..."

Division Commander Yu Danhai waved his hand, interrupting Ning He's words, a smile of understanding flashed on his slightly chubby face, and he looked at the subordinates in the room and said, "Actually, we all know that I am the commander of the new 17th Division, and it does look a little weird. You must know that my greatest work in the army is actually just cooking for the teacher."

The division commander is interested in telling jokes, and the officers who are subordinates naturally have to laugh at the situation, but the smile has no emotion, because the division commander Yu is telling the truth, although the army god is only willing to eat the food he cooks, it seems to be some kind of honor, but in the army, it is definitely not a good qualification. On the battlefield of iron and blood, the good man is equivalent to a synonym for wreckage.

In fact, there are many high-ranking generals in the federal military who look down on Yu Chenghai, and they have great opinions on his appointment as the commander of the new 17th Division, which is very symbolic, and about the post of commander of the new 17th Division, I don't know how many commanders of the strong field army and even the chief of staff of the military region are willing to surrender themselves to a few sequences to take up the post, but as a result, they are fighting for it, and in the end this position actually fell to the head of a chef, who can be convinced?

All the middle- and high-ranking officers of the new 17th Division are the objects of the Federation's key training, and it is difficult to say that there is no disappointment and anger in the depths of their hearts for such a "good old man who has come to be the commander of the division."

"But who's to say chefs can't fight?"

Yu Chenghai's eyes narrowed, but for the first time, the officers in the room felt some kind of strong meaning from him

"At that time, the teacher grew up in Xilin, in the empire itself, and in countless battles, he used to make the most important decisions during meals, and it was an honor that I stood by his side at that time. That is to say, I have watched countless tactical deductions of the Federation War God. The entire Union Army, no one can compare with me on this point. ”

Master Yu Chenghai's face suddenly glowed with a touch of self-satisfaction, and he said, "The Federal Poetry has said that if you are familiar with 10,000 books, you will naturally become an excellent writer. I have seen and memorized countless examples of the teacher, and even if I am incompetent, I can still remember some things that the commander needs to remember.

"At the end of World War II, my teacher once taught me a war example. If it appears on the battlefield, it is beyond the control of both the enemy and the enemy. What we need to do is to be proactive and take the initiative to embrace the changes that this variable may bring, whether that change is good or bad. ”

No one knows if Lieutenant Colonel Xu Le can fix the command system of those guys in the Special First Army, damn, Qinglong Mountain, but there is always this private possibility, as long as it is possible, the brigade that the Imperial people put into ambush will be pinned down for one more day, and we just need this time, waiting for Helei's regiment to maneuver in place. ”

"Don't pay attention to those guys in the Seventh Division, Dongfang Pei will definitely be scolded afterwards, such a big piece of fat is not eaten in front of him, what will the Shaoqing Division Commander who has been hungry for so many days look like when he is angry?"

"It's better to eat braised pork, there is a plate of braised pork waiting for us right now, if we still have to wait for the command to give an order, this is certainly in line with the etiquette of the guests, but it is also stupid. ”

"The Imperials don't have reserves, it's a magnetic storm zone, and with a little brainstorming, you can figure out what the reason for this ambush started. ”

"Helei's regiment is the farthest away from the proposed war zone, but he is a student of Lieutenant Colonel Xu Le, and he should know very well what Xu Le will do and how long it will take, so he must give the regiment full autonomy and let it maneuver and chase up.

"The second regiment and the third regiment marched in two fronts, and followed the past of Poling, the sky here is full of the eyes and fighters of the Federation, there is no problem with safety, and it takes the shortest time to directly touch the violent area, so they have to suppress the speed. ”

"Once you enter the magnetic storm area, immediately break away and go further north along the glacier line, everyone, don't care about the battle between us and the enemy, don't care how many Imperials there are, this must be a chaotic war. ”

Commander Yu Chenghai pointed to the electronic map and calmly narrated the competition, just like how a dish should be cooked.

The seventeenth division Lan Guan listened quietly to the words of the division commander, his expression was very serious and serious, and his eyes gradually showed admiration.

Yu Chenghai smiled gently, ended his tactical arrangement, looked at his subordinates and said, "Just like the battle arrangement of the Seventh Division chasing north in the Huangshan Mountains last year, it will be reduced to zero when it enters the magnetic storm area. Later, the most severe military orders were issued to the company-level combat units, and once they found that they could not defeat the Imperials, they should run quickly, and as for where to run, they would consider for themselves. Don't forget, our 17th Division is an integrated mechanic, a fully motorized unit, and now the Ministry of Defense has stuffed so many mechs that make me dizzy, who can be faster than us than running?"

"With the additional system designed by Lieutenant Colonel Xu Le, I believe that these mechs will not fall into the pit again. Division Commander Yu Chenghai raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "As a division commander, I shouldn't have explained these tactical arrangements to you. But there are not many real old people in the division, and my biggest responsibility as the commander of this division is to pass on the fighting style of the teacher when he led the 17th division. ”

"Of course, if Admiral Myers himself came to be the commander of this division, he might have done a more competent job, you must know that he was the most insidious and ruthless on the battlefield back then. But His Excellency the President will probably not agree. ”

Division Commander Yu Chenghai opened his hands and said with a serious face, "Children, you must remember that the great and undefeated Seventeenth Division has only one fighting style. ”

That is, to eat all the meat that can be eaten, to feel sorry for every piece of meat on our body, for this purpose, there is no shamelessness in our eyes. ”

Xu Le didn't know what happened to the division, and he didn't know that the old man in Philadelphia was in his hands** The 17th Division is definitely not as upright and disciplined as the people of the Federation think of the 2nd in fact, although he used all his spare time to learn military command, and also commanded the 7th Group to fight some small battles, but after all, he is not an excellent commander, not to discuss the personal heroism that makes the young people's blood boil, in the mecha, he is still habitually using his super combat ability to solve the problems he faces.

The snow-white twin engines of the "T-mecha" snorted, and the miniature turbines in the T section did not make any sound, but they were sinking into place to provide more powerful power. The mecha mechanical foot poked out ultra-fine alloy thorns, like fine hairs on the edge of a cat's claw pad, vigorously rubbing the smooth ice surface, turning the two mechs into two white lines, although it was difficult to calm down, but it was extremely high-speed forward.

The blizzard is getting bigger and bigger, and the two mechs in the synchronization mode at the same time show the warning sound of strong geomagnetic interference, with the naked eye, they have not been separated, but they are still blurred between the wind, snow, glacier and black clouds, like two flies who don't know how long they have collided.

Then he crashed headlong into the battlefield.

Two white mechs were above the glacier, looking at the tracked armored vehicles emitting black smoke below, the corpses of the soldiers lying on the ground, listening to the sporadic gunshots, motionless, as if looking for a way to penetrate into the center of the battlefield.

(Yu Chenghai is a cook, and something happened at home today, so it's extraordinarily late, sorry.) Everything starts the day after tomorrow, you know what I mean, smile, the illness is almost cured. ）
