Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

"Mr. Hult, we're here."

Waking up from his deep sleep, Helt opened his eyes. He had just slept for more than an hour. He got up and left the room. The battleship had slowed down.

As soon as he arrived at the command room, Helt saw on the crystal screen the horrific clone battle line. The canyon was originally surrounded by mountains on three sides. Below it were two space stations that had only the remains of wreckage. The mountains on three sides had collapsed.

The fortifications originally built in the mountains have been exposed, and there are corpses everywhere.

There are nearly 400,000 clones in the entire clone front here. The surroundings are full of scenes after bombing. The empire uses heavy firepower to attack here.

Although Helt knew that some people would survive, they would only be a minority, because the clone fronts were also unprepared and attacked by the Empire.

Helt regretted not issuing the attack order in time. If the clone front had attacked earlier, the results might have been different, but this was all due to the family's attitude.

Hert now believes that the family has turned to the Queen. It should be that the Queen has given the family some extremely favorable conditions, so the family has directly turned to the Queen.

The battleship landed slowly, and Hert planned to send 2,000 soldiers out to investigate, and they might find people who were still alive.

Helt felt happy when he thought about the past few months here, but now everything in front of him could hardly look like the past.

Soon the soldiers were dispatched. It was unlikely that there would be any living people in this place, and Hult didn't hold out any hope.

Hult blamed himself as he looked at the information that the soldiers kept sending back. The entire clone front was finished.

But because of the sacrifices of the clone front, the Empire was no longer able to launch a large-scale attack. This was clear to Hult. A large-scale range weapon attack required a massive loss of energy.

Now that Hult and the others are so small, it makes it impossible for the empire to use large-scale weapons. After all, the gain outweighs the loss.

An hour later, soldiers had searched all nearby facilities, but no one survived.

Hult looked to the west with a hint of despair. After a while, the people who went to the west to investigate also came back. The family mine and a take-off and landing point they had previously occupied were also the same, and they suffered a devastating blow. .

The battleship set sail again, intending to go to the area where Helt had previously designated a small base. That place was Helt's last hope. If that place was also attacked, the clone front would be completely destroyed.

More than ten minutes later, the battleship arrived over the area. Hert sent a contact signal. The noisy sound of electricity rang in the captain's room, but still no one responded.

"who are you?"

At this time, a hoarse and slightly sad voice came out, and Hert said hurriedly.

"I'm Hurt."

The voice on the communicator cried.

"It's good that you're alive, Helt. That's great. I didn't expect you to be alive. I'm Maxi."

Hult stood up happily.

"Are you guys okay now?"

Max whimpered.

"Fewer than 3,000 people survived."

This kind of thing was unacceptable to Hert, and the battleship quickly lowered. Hert and the soldiers left the warship, and soon saw a base in the mountain col, and they entered the base.

There were only a few buildings and facilities in the entire base, and many people had empty eyes. Maxi came over with the remaining soldiers, and he cried.

"If we had moved faster, maybe this wouldn't be the case."

Helt felt a surge of sadness in his heart. He knew very well that except for Maxi, all the cadres were dead, and the faces that had been so lively before had now disappeared.

The only remaining people are a small number of soldiers and some people who participated in the construction of this base.

Maxi said.

"Because your consecutive battles have made us very happy, we have also begun preparations, and the progress of splitting and building the base has begun to slow down. We did not expect that the empire would attack us so decisively."

Helt nodded and looked at Maxi's old appearance. There must be something wrong with his body.

"Treat him quickly or you will die."

Maxi nodded.

"If we followed your idea of ​​Hult and directly vigorously develop the sub-base, this would not be the case."

Maxi regretted very much. The establishment of sub-bases made many clones miserable. Although they had established some sub-bases and dismantled some industrial equipment, they had not established agricultural facilities.

Therefore, many people still live here at the main base, and many industrial equipment are temporarily unable to operate normally. It is very laborious for many people to travel back and forth. Under these harsh conditions that are difficult to solve, everyone can only gather at the main base in the end.

No one expected that the empire's attack would be so decisive, without giving them any chance to react.

Maxi also brought people to this base to work that day and survived. Many people had been hungry for several days. Hert immediately ordered the soldiers to move some of the food from the battleship.

"What to do now Hult?"

Maxi asked and Hult said.

"You continue to stay here and build, and we will help. Now the empire has no ability to fight us anymore."

Maxi nodded. He was very clear about the previous battle, but after such an attack happened later, Maxi felt something was wrong, so he asked.

"Have members of the family betrayed us?"

Hurt nodded.

"Because of their betrayal, the empire will use large-scale weapons, because the empire no longer needs you to contain the family members."

Helt clenched his fists and said.

"Get your people ready to move to a mine more than 50 kilometers north."

Maxi was a little confused, and Helt immediately stood up and said.

"Let's go and seize the mine."

Maxi said in shock.

"Your situation isn't good either, right?"

Hurt laughed.

"Indeed, we have also suffered heavy losses, but now you have to survive. You will have to start moving tomorrow."

Maxie shouted.

"That mine is very large and has sufficient troops. How are you going to seize it now?"

Hurt laughed.

"Once we pass, they will definitely give up the mine without taking action."

Maxi felt a little strange, and then Hert invited Maxi to come with him and bring some people with him, because after the mine was captured, people were needed to drive a lunar vehicle to pick up everyone here.

Soon Maxi got on the battleship, and Hert showed him some images and videos of previous battles, as well as the specific process of the battle. Maxi was shocked.

"How on earth did you do it? The Imperial Army was so vulnerable."

Maxi couldn't imagine how Helt and the others could win the battle with ten times their strength. It would be good if they were not completely wiped out, but there were still more than 5,000 people left.

"Where are the rest of your troops?"

Hurt laughed.

"They probably just checked the situation near your main base. After finding that no one was alive, they left to attack the empire's facilities."

Maxi couldn't understand that at this time, they were lucky to be alive.

One of the commanders laughed.

"Now we have made the empire feel fear."

The battleship quickly approached a large mine, and Hert directly picked up the communicator and made contact.

"This is Hult from Space Station 69. Please evacuate immediately, otherwise we will attack in half an hour."

After the communication ended, Hert immediately began to set up. He needed to be prepared for both. If they did not evacuate, Hert planned to take over the mine directly and forcefully.

Maxi listened to Helt's arrangement with confusion. Many tactics were beyond Maxi's imagination. However, at this time, a large number of lunar vehicles and a small carrier appeared in the mine and took off directly.

In less than half an hour, Hult and his warships slowly entered the mine. The workers in the mine had fear in their eyes, and no one knew what was happening.

Maxi looked at the mess in some offices in the mine in shock. It could be seen that many people ran away directly, leaving only these clones. Then Hult sent people and the clones here to explain.

There are still nearly 20,000 clones living here, Helter said with a smile.

"Look, it's time to accumulate strength now."

Maxi said with a solemn expression.

"If the Empire strikes again, we'll be totally screwed."

Hurt shook his head.

"Don't worry, there's nothing they can do."

At this time, at a stronghold west of the original base of the Clone Front, thick smoke was billowing, and many fleeing Imperial soldiers were being chased under the sky. They could only leave from the ground. A small battleship was shot down as soon as it took off. .

Nearly 2,000 imperial soldiers were stationed here, but after seeing the clones, they ran away without any hesitation.

The battle of the past few days has spread, and no one wants to confront this troop head-on, because they all know that they will most likely die.

Several clone commanders in the captain's room looked at this result and did not have much reaction, because this seemed to them to be a matter of course.

The soldiers didn't cheer much, because they had long been accustomed to such attacks.

Soon the commanders issued orders for the soldiers to clean the battlefield and take away everything they could.

Time passed by minute by minute.

It's around 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

In a mansion in District 3 of Lunar City, Hert was pruning flowers. He listened to the adjutant's report with a serious face. A large stronghold was attacked by clones just an hour ago.

"I see."

Now Helt doesn't think about anything anymore. The defeat in the last battle has made it difficult for him to gain a foothold in the army. Now the country is putting the blame for the war mistakes on Helt.

Hert also knew that no matter who stood in this position, it was impossible for them to win the war.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, and Nigel hurriedly walked in.

"Did you hear that?"

Hurt nodded and said.

"Such attacks are necessary. They will continue to attack, even if there are only a few thousand people, but their combat effectiveness is unimaginable."

Nigel clenched his fists. This defeat was really something no one could have imagined.

"What are you doing here?"

Helt asked and Nigel laughed.

"Of course I came here to chat with you and then have a drink and a meal. After all, we have lost our jobs now."

Helt laughed helplessly. After the two sat down, they looked at what happened an hour ago.

"That clone Hert will never stop. I know my own character very well. Once I decide to do something, I will never back down."

Nigel laughed.

"I don't know what kind of agreement His Majesty has reached with the family members."

This is what the two of them are most confused about. The family that worries them the most has suddenly become silent. It is obvious that if they take action, the entire Moon City may be in ruins.

However, the family members chose to let the Fourth and Fifth Army retreat at the most critical moment, Nigel said.

"I met a person yesterday. Although he didn't say clearly why the family didn't take action, it is certain that after we surrounded the clones who had just experienced the war, the family thought they were losing, so they stopped. of."

Hurt laughed and nodded.

"Indeed, no one could have imagined that the clones could still win under such circumstances. So the family missed the best opportunity."

Nigel nodded.

"This is indeed unbelievable. After all, those clones at that time only needed a slight push and they would all fall down."

The result of the war was probably a lifetime of helplessness for the two of them, because the failure of this war resulted in the empire's army group being able to only operate outside the lunar city.

Anywhere further away may be the location of a clone attack. The attack just now has confirmed the two people's thoughts.

"When do you think they will cease fire?"

Nigel asked, Helt shook his head, but still said.

"I think there is a reason why they are so tough. After all, Hert's two wives have been caught."

Nigel said suspiciously.

"Will he risk everything for two women? Although we lost, we still have the power to completely stop them."

Helt looked at the sky in the distance and said solemnly.

"It is already impossible for us to stop them. They will become more and more tough in the future. Even if we send large-scale troops, it will be meaningless."

Nigel fell into deep thought. At this time, a call came through. It was the queen who asked them to go to the palace immediately. Nigel also received the call.

"Let's go, it looks like it's an important matter."

After Nigel finished speaking, Helt stood up and said.

"Our military career is over, and there will be no place for us in the military in the future."
