Mecha and Knife

The No. [-] Empire Ground Troop, whose formation was five kilometers long, had already been half disabled. The four hundred Imperial Mechs that came to support them chose to ignore their heads and rushed directly to the location of the Xinghe Squad.

They have only one goal, and that is to keep the Galaxy Squad.

The fire support from the Federation did not damage the [-] imperial mechas, and they were in very good condition.

Compared with the Xinghe team, which went all out to kill the four-kilometer army formation, it can be said that they are waiting for work at leisure.

The absolute advantage in numbers is enough to smooth out the performance gap between the two mechs.

Even if there is Ji Xinghe in the Xinghe team, if they are entangled by these four hundred imperial mechs, then only Ji Xinghe can escape back in the end.

It has nothing to do with Ji Xinghe's strength, it's just because everyone in the Xinghe team will use their lives to help Ji Xinghe stop the pursuers.

Or gain.

But what's the point?

"withdraw."

Ji Xinghe decisively issued an order. A miracle he wanted to give to the Federation was given up by himself.

There is always a shortage of manpower.

After killing four kilometers, he couldn't lead the Xinghe team to kill the last kilometer, because this kilometer was the craziest kilometer on this battlefield, and it was also the one with the best preparations.

If, I am driving a general armor today.

If Qin Tong, Harris, the blind man, the lame man, and Su Chuanyun's ace fighter exclusive mechas are in place.

If Jackson and Han Li are by my side.

If what happened to Ji Xinghe was all his regret, he regretted that he could not create a miracle that shocked the entire Federation.

But what he ignored was that what he had done in the No. [-] base theater was enough for the entire Federation to call it a miracle.

Because it doesn't matter.

What he really wanted was—to celebrate.

Not for other stars, but for real victory.

When Ji Xinghe's order was issued, the Xinghe team went directly out of the imperial formation from the right side of their charge route.

The field of vision instantly became empty.

But the crisis did not end there. When they completely broke away from the imperial army formation, the crippled imperial troops still had the ability to attack them with artillery fire, which was more courageous than the previous crazy state.

The [-] imperial mechas that were originally on the right side changed with their movements, and the pursuit officially began.

The two hundred imperial mechs on the other side ignored their compatriots, stepped on the dead or alive imperial soldiers, and directly passed through the four kilometers of imperial army array that was killed by the Xinghe team.

Also joined the pursuit battle.

"General, we are ready to start scrubbing."

In the space battleship Sanshuiyuan, someone reminded with an excited tone.

But Tu Yuan didn't order them to wash the ground, because Ji Xinghe didn't make this request, which means that even Ji Xinghe couldn't use the "earthquake" caused by the ground washing, 'Dust Storm', to kill through the four hundred imperial mechs chasing them.

The Star River team is indeed stronger than last time, but their average state is not as good as in the last federal cleanup.

Ji Xinghe didn't have time to repair the mecha damaged in the charge.

Moreover, they only had six Zhanshan class and four super mech fighters, but the empire had two hundred more mechas.

A stronger Xinghe team needs to face a bigger gap between the enemy and ourselves.

run, run.run.

The Xinghe team, who fled at full speed, seemed to have completed all the combat objectives this time.

Never looking back.

This was the most reasonable and normal scene, and it was a complete victory worthy of everyone's cheers.

But for some reason, seeing the Xinghe team being pursued by four hundred imperial mechas, many people felt an expectation in their hearts.

They fantasized that the Galaxy team would turn around and kill through four hundred imperial mechs.

People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and it has always been like this.

Tu Yuan noticed this, and sighed in his heart before making a sound.

"Report the results."

"Yes."

The statistical work of the battle results has been done all the time, and when Tu Yuan needed it, it was reported/notified as soon as possible.

"The Xinghe team destroyed 39 imperial mechas, and our firepower attack destroyed [-] imperial mechas."

The 150 billion firepower attack, but the results obtained sounded inferior to the Galaxy Squad.

This is actually quite normal. After all, the effect of fire attack on destroying mechas is very low. If it weren't for the containment of the Galaxy Squad and the imperial forces, 150 billion ammunition might not even be able to destroy 39 imperial mechas.

Furthermore, the hardware cost of Galaxy Squad is really high.

In addition to her federal No.11 core engine, Xingyue's airframe alone cost more than 8000 million.Such a high cost does not include its overclocking mode, and its performance parameters are only at the level of the custom-modified No.16 generation mecha that Ji Xinghe drove before.

The performance parameters are equivalent to the Zhanshan of the Imperial Marquis-level mecha, all of which use the Federation's No.12 generation core engine.

Ji Xinghe couldn't get this stuff even if he was rich and meritorious.

Only counting the manufacturing cost, not counting the cost premium of scarce resources, the construction cost of Zhanshan needs one billion.

He is already very close to Ji Xinghe's General A.

However, the tungsten steel alloy used in the main body of the general armor was seized by Ji Xinghe himself, and then reforged by sunken wood, and the tungsten steel alloy has no specific price in the Federation, so the cost is actually a bit difficult to calculate.

Calculated at a unit price of one billion yuan, the price of fifteen Zhanshan is exactly the firepower quota that Tu Yuan invested in this command operation.

150 million.

If it is to manufacture standard mechas, at an average cost of 5000 million, three hundred can be manufactured.

Is the charge effect of three hundred standard mechs really worse than that of the Xinghe team?

Maybe stronger.

But it is indisputable that if [-] Federation mechas were to implement the Galaxy Squad's combat plan today, at least more than [-] mechas would be lost if they wanted to achieve the current results.

And it is unlikely to escape the pursuit of the Imperial Mecha.

"Confirmed that more than [-] imperial troops have been killed, and the imperial tanks have been destroyed..."

The debriefing/reporting of the results continues.

Discussions about spending a huge amount of resources to build the Galaxy Squad and whether the results complement each other have already begun in many places.

They all received the result notification from the No. [-] base theater.

As for the result, it can only be said that the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees wisdom.

The battle in the No. [-] base theater is not over yet. Relying on the superiority of the mecha performance, the Xinghe team has already distanced itself from the [-] imperial mechas that were chasing them, and the distance is getting farther and farther.

The 460 mechas that the empire had deployed in advance to intercept them were useless because of the roundabout running of the Xinghe team. A total of [-] imperial mechas could only be pursued in groups, and then watched the Xinghe team run farther and farther helplessly or fortunately.

But they did not give up the pursuit.

Just like the last time, they were waiting for the mecha energy of the Galaxy team to fall into a state of insufficient energy, or the damage suffered during the previous battle would be enlarged due to the continuous high-speed running of the escape, which in turn affected the normal maneuvering of the mecha.

This time, they will not give Ji Xinghe time to repair the mecha.

"Ji Xinghe, they will not stop chasing this time."

Tu Yuan's voice sounded in the communication channel of the Xinghe team.

"I think they will chase you to find the precise coordinates of Base No. [-] at the cost of annihilating the entire army. Therefore, you must not bring them back to the defensive area of ​​​​No. [-] Base, even with the weapons of No. [-] Base The configuration can wipe them all out, but the precise coordinates will expose the fate..."

The end is this defensive battle, which will inevitably end with the destruction of the fifth base.

This is the biggest disadvantage of playing defensive warfare.

Once the precise coordinates are revealed, the empire's endless mid-range and long-range firepower will launch continuous bombardment.

It is no longer a defensive battle, but money and logistical supplies.

Whoever has more money wins.Whoever has the fastest logistics supply will win the battle.

The empire with the jump gate technology has never been afraid to compete with the federation for conventional firepower. If it weren't for them not having satellites in alien planets, the federation would be directly crushed by the empire in terms of conventional firepower.

"but."

Tu Yuan changed the topic.

"We can call out all the mechas in Base No. 460, [-], plus our fire support, plus your combat effectiveness, we can completely eat up the [-] imperial mechas behind you."

"We are working out a detailed combat plan, which will be sent to you later, and now you have to bring..."

310 six vs. four hundred and six. With the average combat power of mechas not as good as that of the empire, the Federation would never dare to fight such a group of mechas.

But when among the 310 six federal mechas, there is the Xinghe team and Ji Xinghe.

Tu Yuan dared to fight, and he firmly believed that he could win.

But Ji Xinghe didn't want to fight, or rather, he didn't want to fight like this.

"Wait a minute, wait for a while before ordering, because I don't want to violate the military order again, I know, this is not good."

Ji Xinghe interrupted Tu Yuan's words, making everyone astonished.

You know it's not good to disobey the military orders, so it's fine to interrupt the orders of the supreme commander?

Ji Xinghe's calm voice sounded in the communication channel of the Xinghe team, and in the command center of the space battleship Shenshuiyuan, the fifth base, and the Nantianmen space station.

"Many people have said to me, once the success of the battle is over, so what if you sacrifice as many people as you want to win?"

"In order to make me cold-blooded, Shen Mu and the others made me a general armor. I know, they are reminding me in this way."

"I agreed with the name, but I don't want to be this kind of general."

"I know you will say that I am pedantic, that I have the benevolence of a woman, that I am not worthy of being a soldier or a commander."

"I also know that maybe one day I will personally give the order to fight to the death, and because of my order, many people will fight to the death without retreating."

"For example, Qin Tong, Harris, the blind man, the lame man, Su Chuanyun... even the mechanic Shen Mu, they will fight to the death because of my order, even if the weapons they hold are just the wrench used by the mechanic, screwdriver."

"I know, I know all of this."

"But I don't want that day to come up, and I don't think this is the day, so we can't play like this."

"I'm a soldier now, but before I was a soldier, I was a father."

"I don't want to see young people like my son die on the battlefield like my son."

"I don't want to see their parents like I was before."

"Tu Yuan, you should be very clear about what I was like before."

You agreed to bet, I won, and you still call me by my name?

Tu Yuan was a little angry, but when he thought of Ji Xinghe he saw for the first time, he couldn't get angry anymore.

It was an old man who brought the kitchen knife and fruit knife at home, and he did not hesitate to steal the individual starship and wanted to come to another planet for revenge.

If he hadn't had a granddaughter, he would have died on the alien battlefield by now.

A person with the will to die will die no matter how strong he is.

"I know I can't save everyone, and I know this war is bound to kill many people."

Ji Xinghe's tone became firmer.

"But please allow me to do everything I can."

The people who heard Ji Xinghe's voice were extremely quiet, especially those mecha fighters on standby. Among them, the super mech fighters could hear Ji Xinghe's voice because they were in the command center.

In a daze, they seemed to see their father on the blue star.

Their father's voice was as old as Ji Xinghe's. Their father, like Ji Xinghe, was waiting for the children from the expedition to return home.

Their father still has a chance to wait until that day, but Ji Xinghe will never be able to wait, so Ji Xinghe will help them go home and help their parents wait for them to go home.

Another somewhat old voice suddenly sounded.

"Ji Xinghe, what do you think you can do today?"

It is Federal Marshal Lee Anbang.
