Volume 3: Xilin's Journey Chapter 210: North by Northeast (10)

Ximen Jin did not intercede for Dongfang Pei, because he knew very well how stoic and cold the division commander he was determined to follow had, once he made a certain decision, unless the high-ranking general directly suppressed it with a military order, then he would not make any changes.

"Understood. Ximen Jin changed the topic very neatly, "According to calculations, it is difficult for the Qinglongshan advance regiment to survive these few days in the geomagnetic storm area, and even if all three regiments of the 17th Division arrive, I am afraid it will be too late." After all, the climatic conditions over there were too harsh, and the Imperial people gathered all the remnants, and the difference in strength was a bit big. ”

"Wars are fought by people, but the role of equipment must not be overlooked. Du Shaoqing said in a deep voice: "Whether the ammunition base of the remnants of the empire can sustain a high-intensity after-wave attack is a problem in itself, if ...... , Lieutenant Colonel Xu Le can repair the command system of the regiment in Qinglong Mountain, and may be able to hold on. ”

The questions and answers between the two are very similar to the dialogue between teachers and students in the military academy, in fact, in Du Shaoqing's military experience, he has always been unsparing in instructing his subordinates on the command level. Ximen listened carefully to the teacher's analysis, but his mood was not ordinary from previous years, and he indifferently had a trace of doubt.

The combat concept of the federal forces has always been faintly divided into two kinds, one is heavy on equipment, and the other is heavy on command and daily training, and the graduation Japanese military exercise carried out by the Ministry of Defense in the training base is precisely to show the senior officers of the army how the revolutionary X mecha will bring changes to this war, but the effect does not seem to be significant.

In this disagreement, Du Shaoqing is undoubtedly the spokesperson of the latter, but now it seems that it is ...... He himself made some kind of change, deploying a large number of X mecha in the Iron Seventh Division, and creating all the conditions in battle to wield the strong attack power of the X mecha group, this change in command concept is clearly seen in the previous sentence.

"Discipline, Dongfang Pei didn't do anything wrong, I don't want to talk about this issue again. Du Shaoqing looked down at the electric map, and said indifferently: "But since you didn't move at the beginning, don't move too much next, the 17th Division is one step ahead of us, and there is no need to grab this kind of credit." ”

"Understood. Simon nodded in response, then his expression was slightly condensed, and he said in a low voice: "I received news from S1, and I may have to go back soon." ”

Du Shaoqing's hand holding the recording pen paused slightly, was silent for a moment, but did not speak, and continued his tactical deduction work, as if to express his acquiescence.

Simon smiled slightly, saluted him behind the table with a standard military salute, and turned to walk out of the room.

Du Shaoqing raised his head and looked at the empty doorway, his thoughts didn't know where he had gone, and a trace of doubt and introspection appeared in his eyes, which were usually as cold as a sea of ice.

Just like Ximen Jin, Dongfang Pei is determined to follow him, and Commander Shaoqing also has objects of appreciation in the Federation. He didn't know what Ximen Jin was going to do when he returned to the Star Circle, because it was the person's intention, so he didn't want to ask, but he faintly felt that something bad was happening, but he acquiesced to the birth of this kind of thing.

At some moments, not expressing a position itself is a true statement, Du Shaoqing's eyes narrowed slightly, he saw the shadow in his heart, and gave birth to a trace of complicated emotions, his right hand subconsciously exerted force, and pinched off the recording pen with a click, and the black electrolyte splattered out and fell on the electric map, smearing a big smudge on the blizzard area in the northeast.

......

......

In the battle area in the snowfield glacier, the blizzard is still dancing wildly, in the deep belly of the battlefield, on a snow hill near the Imperial front, the snow is blown by the wind and the close hand is as hard as ice, and in the horizon polluted by the snowflakes, there is nothing unusual to see, only a black gravel-like thing, shallow floating in front of the snow hill, as if it was swept by the wind in a different place, and it has no choice but to move here.

Only when you look closely at this black gravel, you can probably see that underneath the stone camouflage is a special high-definition sight probe made by the Federation, but the Imperial Expeditionary Force, which is already exhausted and insisting on it with a crazy atmosphere, no one will carefully search the front of their position in the blizzard, and in their opinion, the surrounded Federation force is more dying than themselves, and it is impossible for them to get close to their barracks.

Underneath the blackstone probe is a thin white wire, and the white wire is made of low-temperature resistant wire, which can still ensure sufficient curvature in such cold air. The white line continues to the bottom of the thick snow ground to several meters underground.

The snow cave deep underground was dark, and the light above the sky was leaking a few rays with difficulty, and the true color of the surrounding snow walls could not be illuminated at all.

The snow cave space is extremely small, and Shi Qinghai, who is wearing a very thick cold-proof suit, has his eyes closed, and he is resting like a shrimp. He was holding the big gun full of metallic luster in his arms, but at this time, he didn't pay attention to the external data transmitted by the white wire to the light screen, like a hibernating bear, not knowing when he would wake up.

He had been hiding in the snow mound for two days, and all the beard under his chin had been condensed into ice by the water vapor he breathed, which looked a little funny.

In fact, if it weren't for this winter-proof suit, which automatically warmed his urine and circulated around the edges of his body, I am afraid that his whole body would have been frozen into an icicle a long time ago. I don't know when, Shi Qinghai woke up, opened his eyes and glanced at the screen, and then closed his eyes again, saving his physical strength and energy, and trying to ensure that his body temperature did not drop too much. After staring at the periphery of this military camp for a long time, there has been no target worth shooting, which is really boring for him.

Two days ago, on the periphery of the war zone, he quietly sniped and killed three imperial junior officers, but he always felt that if he continued like this, it would be really unpleasant to be a member of the Trinity Association, holding a big gun in the universe, even the characters who had been assassinated by Medellin, if he only sniped some stupid imperial junior officers, he would be buried in this wind and snow, this kind of death is too uncalculated, not too spectacular, too unbeautiful.

So he began to move towards the hinterland of the Empire, and among the bullets that staggered overhead, under the noses of countless people, forward, defying death and the Empire, and then forward, silently into this snowy hill.

It's hard to imagine how Shi Qinghai sneaked over this nine-kilometer journey, and how he didn't let anyone show his whereabouts, so violent, it's really incredible.

In the snow cave, he suddenly opened his eyes again, frowned and scolded a silent swear word with his beautiful eyebrows, and took out a bottle of spray from the equipment bag next to him, "Carefully spray it around the snow cave, and the low temperature liquid nitrogen instantly made the snow wall, which had just shown signs of softness, suddenly stiffened."

He had done this many times before he could carefully maintain the appearance of the snow mound without the slightest change, but there was one thing that made the fearless Shi Gong extremely angry, he searched the headquarters of the advance regiment for half the night, and he could not find a camouflage aiming probe suitable for the snow.

After finishing the routine work, the chill around him deepened, Shi Qinghai squinted his eyes and glanced at his watch, it was already early morning, forcibly cheered up, and no longer rested.

The watch stone on his wrist is standard for the federal military, but it is actually a modified product sent by Xu Le, and there are many practical gadgets on it. Whenever he looked at his watch in the snow cave, Shi Qinghai would think of the brother who was ruthless in the sunshine and was stupid and stubborn like a stone most of the time, and thought a little silently that it might be difficult to meet again.

But most of the time, Shi Qinghai is thinking about other things now.

He quietly looked at the light curtain that popped up on his watch, looking at the beautiful girl in red and red on the light curtain and the tiger-headed little guy in the woman's arms, and a trace of satisfaction flashed on his handsome face.

......

......

More than two dozen undisguised X-mechs were mixed in the snow armor group, and the roar of countless engines with different timbres mixed together, and the snow on the surface of the all-metal fuselage was shook.

This steel condensed force didn't care whether its whereabouts would be revealed at all, and it was silent and open to the point that it even seemed arrogant and arrogant to advance in the snow, but it was very strange that it remained even, and did not have the anxiety shown by this combat posture.

The first regiment of the 17th Division of the Federation, their regiment commander Lieutenant Colonel Helei, was very anxious at this time, and he was sitting in the command electric control car, and scolded with a dark face: "A whole regiment, circled around the snow for two days, and then actually went back to the same place, what use do I want you guys?"

"The geomagnetic storm in this area is too strong, the long-wave communication is completely cut off, and the side wave signal has not reappeared. The commander of the electronic control company explained with a depressed expression.

"What's the use of dismissing me from the front? We came out to support us secretly, or we came here in disobedience to military orders, if we can't find the ambushed Qinglongshan troops, we will become a big joke

He Lei didn't know that the command had decided to support the Qinglong Mountain Advance Mission, thinking of his current situation and the possible situation on the battlefield, he roared angrily: "To put it bluntly, I don't care about the life or death of those Qinglong Mountain monkeys, but if we let the instructor burp because we arrived late, I will definitely kill you before I pull out my gun and commit suicide!"

The tracked armored car was slightly undulating on the snow, the atmosphere in the carriage was very depressing, and the electric control soldiers were very depressed, in the face of this kind of violence of nature, human beings were always prone to appear powerless, in fact, they did not believe at all, the two mecha of the technical director Xu Le could find the trapped troops of Qinglong Mountain in this snowy region, unless they were lucky.

Heray vented his anger and immediately regained his composure, as an officer trained by the Federation, his brain turned for a moment, and he thought of something.

"It's not bad to go back to the original point, only idiots like us will engage in some advanced electrolocation at this time. The instructor entered the geomagnetic storm area from here, and Gu Xifeng said that the possible direction of the side wave ......"

"Take my commands. ”

Herre roared loudly: "The whole group is spread out in a zigzag, and the distance between the twin peaks is maintained at a width of twenty kilometers, and the mecha group can break away from the team and spread out in a fan shape. ”

"You stare at the sun in the sky, the moon at night, just sweep it over!"

"Whoever is *** lucky, when he hears the first gunshot, I give him credit. ”

"Direction: North by Northeast. ”
