Byron's Blade

Chapter 37

Caral stood on the [-]-meter city wall with a gloomy face, observing the situation on the suspension bridge deck with binoculars.Just ten seconds ago, his scouts told him that all six mantis-shaped predators had died.At the moment, on the suspension bridge, Lanny Friesman and a female officer could be seen, busy with something.

There were six praying mantis-shaped predators, but they couldn't wipe out a team with only about forty people. What made him vomit blood most was that none of the key people died, and they were placed in three The internal responders in the squadron somehow jumped off the bridge and died!

Damn it, who killed Elisa? This action was planned temporarily, and someone could intervene, which made him feel unbelievable.It seems that not only they have placed internal agents in the third squadron, but also other unknown forces.What is so special about these three squadrons?They didn't notice this team at all. Although it was an elite unit of ace divisions, there were so many ace divisions in the entire federal army, so they didn't go anywhere.All master groups have their internal support, and Elisa Ford is nothing special, just one of many chess pieces.It was enabled entirely because the bad luck of the Third Squadron got involved in this matter, and it happened that Lanny Friesman was also in the Third Squadron.

"Scout, did you really not see who killed the fifth monster?" Karal reconfirmed angrily.

"Yes Colonel! The monster died in a blind spot. We couldn't see the appearance of that person on the wall. We could only see a corner of the monster struggling. The battle lasted only about ten seconds. It was too fast and we didn't even notice it."

"Damn it!" Karal cursed, and was in an extreme struggle. Now that the monsters were all dead, he had no excuse to fire. When the reinforcements arrived, he couldn't drag on any longer.Moreover, the three squadrons below, as well as that Sistine, are not easy to deal with, and they are probably already thinking of ways to force him to put people into the city.

Do you really want to give up the mission?But... the commander-in-chief had seriously warned him on the phone that no matter what, these people must die outside the city, and they must not leave any clues or evidence involving the commander-in-chief.

Karal knew that he was already an abandoned child.Should he continue to fulfill his loyalty, or should he betray the commander-in-chief to save himself?After weighing it several times, Caral knew that even if he betrayed the commander-in-chief and let Lan Ni and others enter the city, the matter had already been revealed. With the cruel heart of the daughter of the Friesman family, it would be strange not to report him. When the time comes, the commander-in-chief will come Abandoning the car to protect the handsome man, he is also a dead letter in the end.Why don't you just put your mind to it and carry out the mission to the end, even if he dies, the commander will treat his family kindly.

When the communication on id came, Karal connected irritably, and said in a bad tone:

"What's the matter, huh?!"

"Karal, it's me." A calm male voice came, and Karal's pupils shrank, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and replied:

"Major General..."

"Do you know what you're doing?" Creel's voice didn't sound angry, very calm, but Karal's back was soaked in cold sweat.

"It's still too late to stop now, I can protect you." Creel said again.

"..." Karal was silent, he opened his mouth to say something, but his upper and lower jaws trembled, and he couldn't say anything in the end.

"I can get through your ID, which means that the signal jammer you installed has been removed. The people in the central government should know about this matter. I said I can protect you, and I can destroy it in minutes. After you, I am now under the city wall, with Major Sistine and Captain Chris. I will give you 1 minute to think about it. After 1 minute, whether you agree or not, I will take over all the troops you transferred. .In this minute, whether you take the initiative to hand over the power or ask me to hand over the power, what I want to see is your attitude, and you should think about it yourself." After finishing speaking, Creel hung up the communication.

Karal clenched his fist and slammed it against the city wall, and let out a loud roar, startling the guards standing beside him.

At this moment, under the city wall, next to an extremely high-end military vehicle, Major General Creel, Captain Kris, and Major Sistine stood together.

"Major General, why do you have to wait for a minute, you can pay him right now! Lanny and the others are still waiting outside..." Sistine said urgently.

Creel raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Don't be impatient, I still want to keep this man, Karal, and this is the best time to break his spiritual defense. If I hand over his Right, put him in jail, he may not be useful to us."

Sistine was thoughtful, and Chris silently glanced at Sistine and shook her head secretly.

On the wall, Karal was staring at the clock on the id. 1 minute, the second hand ticked down, and with 30 seconds left, he couldn't take it anymore, and with trembling hands planned to connect to Creel's id and surrender.At this moment, a piercing siren sounded from the entire city gate area. Caral was taken aback and raised his head. The red alarm light above his head was flashing.

"Colonel! Yes, yes... the swarm! The swarm is coming!" The scout reported in a panic.

Swarm!Karal hurriedly grabbed the binoculars and looked down, and saw that in the forest in the distance, dense swarms of Zerg and predators began to appear, approaching the gate of the city at an alarming speed.Even in the moat, predators and Zerg with good water can be seen swimming.

God help me too!Karal suddenly burst out laughing madly, seized the last ten seconds and gave the last order in his life:

"All artillery on the wall attack!"

"A set of orders!"

"The second group has orders!"

"......"

"...track adjustment!"

"Energy storage is over!"

"Countdown to fire..."

"Three, two, one! fire!"

The next moment, "Boom!", all the 50 electromagnetic railguns lined up on the wall bombarded the attacking insect swarm. The electromagnetic railguns had a huge attack range and strong lethality. God, the explosion was deafening.

"That bastard actually opened fire!" Sistine was furious.

"It's a bug swarm! The bug swarm is coming!" A soldier staggered to report.

"Lanny! No, I'm going to save her, open the city gate immediately!" Sistine shouted while clutching at Creel.

Creel didn't speak, and punched him directly in the stomach, hitting Sistine until he knelt on the ground with his stomach covered, his veins burst out, and he couldn't breathe for a long time.Only to hear Creel angrily say:

"Boy, calm down tm! I know what to do, and I don't need you to direct me!"

Immediately, he immediately took over the highest command authority of the City Guard Army at the fastest speed. For this operation, Karal transferred 5000 troops from the 2000 City Guard Army.

"All soldiers obey the order. This is an order of the highest authority. Immediately stop shelling. There must be no mistakes!"

"Repeat for the last time, the command of the highest authority, stop the shelling immediately, there must be no mistakes! Violators will be killed on the spot for treason!"

He then issued a secret order to his personal guards: "Catch Karal immediately! Those who want to live! Anyone who helps him resist or escape will be killed!"

The sound of the artillery stopped quickly, and the artillerymen on the wall looked confused. A young soldier asked his officer with a pale face:

"It's about to fire again, but it's not allowed to fire. What happened? So many Zerg are about to attack, don't fight?"

His chief reprimanded with sweat profusely: "Shut up! Watch out for your life!"

"Sistine! Chrissy! Take a few people with me to the helicopter, and we will go out of the city to rescue people!" After finishing speaking, Creel immediately turned around and ran towards the tarmac where the armed escort helicopter was.

"Yes!" Chris replied immediately, and then quickly clicked on the communication channel of the third squadron:

"Lieutenant Lu Diyun! Second Lieutenant Rui Qiao! Sergeant Roger! The three of you are on the helicopter with me to save people!"

"Yes!" The answer from the three came immediately, like a beast that had been suppressed for a long time, with an explosive momentum.

"Major Sistine, can you still do it?" After Chris gave the order, she turned around and looked at Sistine, who was still squatting on the ground and clutching her stomach, with a slight contempt in her eyes.

"It's okay, I'll bring all my brothers with me."

"There are 9 people outside the city, and the helicopter carries 20 people. I have already brought 3 people here, and you can only bring 6 more people."

"Understood." Sistine struggled to get up from the ground.

After a short while, the personnel gathered together, and the helicopter took off immediately.It is no longer realistic to open the city gate at this moment. When the swarm of insects comes, opening the city gate is tantamount to welcoming them into the city and slaughtering them.To save the 9 people on the suspension bridge, a helicopter must be used.However, this is very dangerous. The height of the helicopter’s descent is limited. If it is too low, it is easy to be attacked by Zerg or predators with excellent jumping ability. Although no flying Zerg or predators have been found this time, it is still dangerous.

However, Creel still went out of the city in person without hesitation, not because he was so righteous and heroic, but because he had to go out of the city, Karal ordered to fire, and he had already taken the blame for it. Going out of the city to save people was the only way for him to take off the blame .He had to let everyone know that he went out of the city to save Lanni himself, otherwise, it would bring catastrophic consequences worse than death.

At this moment, the condition of the nine people on the suspension bridge is very bad.

Although this short-lived artillery attack did not hit the suspension bridge directly, the aftermath of the impact still shook several people to and fro, with tinnitus and dizziness.Finally, the artillery fire ended, and the swarm of insects came one after another even more fiercely. They didn't even have time to breathe, so they could only find ways to save themselves from the raging swarm of insects.

Going into the water is suicide, and the only way is to get on the roof, stand on the commanding heights, and still have a weak life.Lan Ni, Mu Li, and the limping military doctor Alita worked together to transport all the patients to the roof of the car, ignoring their injuries, and tied them back to back.Lanny knew that the helicopter would come to rescue them, which would save the rescue time.

Lan Ni and Alita were busy dealing with the wounded patients, while Mu Li was driving below, driving the armored vehicle they were in between the other two armored vehicles, with its back against the city wall, and a car just in front of it. An overturned armored vehicle can be a little more alive by creating favorable terrain in this way.

Fortunately, before the insect swarm hit, Lan Ni had a good eye and searched all the weapons on the scene, which saved the time of picking up weapons.And Mu Li was equipped with a dead soldier's powered exoskeleton. After parking the car, she jumped behind the body of the overturned armored car and took more than 30 usable guns, 6 standard short-handled sabers, and 1 long-handled saber. Saber, 3 Army/Crossbow shop in a place that can be reached at any time.Holding two machine/guns in both hands, straddling the front of the formation, watching the rapidly approaching insect swarm in the distance, his face sinking like water and motionless like a mountain.

Lani and Alita were on the roof of the car with 6 wounded patients. They also had a lot of weapons beside them. One was for self-protection, and the other was for covering Mu Li to avoid sneak attacks from her back and sides.Lan Ni gritted her teeth and looked at Mu Li's back, looking at her scarred appearance, her heart ached beyond measure.But now such a hopeless situation, can only rely on her.

Lanny began to hate that third-party mysterious person who hid her identity. He/she may be one of these people with such a good skill, but he chose not to save him, and pushed everything to the scarred pastor. Li, hide himself.Thinking of this, Lanny felt hatred in her heart, but she just gritted her teeth and tried not to think about it.Now she can't add to the chaos, they have to get through this!

"Major, do you know that I have a very famous classical novel in Huaxia——"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms." Mu Li's voice suddenly came from the earphones, and Lan Ni looked at her back without speaking.

"If I can survive such a desperate situation, I should be written a book and passed it down as a myth."

"You are not allowed to die, this is an order." Lan Ni just replied.

Mu Li sighed, the young lady really hadn't watched "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and didn't understand what she was talking about.

In the past, there was Zhang Yide, a native of Yan, who stood with a spear in Changbanpo, facing Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of troops with no fear on his face.Today, I, Mu Li, hold a gun and stick to the gate of Ares, facing tens of thousands of raging swarms of insects alone. With my ancestors, I can also gain a brave reputation.

"If I don't die, I will have no fear in the future! Kill!!!!!!!"

The swarm of insects was already close at hand, Mu Li raised his two guns, roared, and the flames spewed out quickly.A group of giant insects with strange shapes and no names at all that attacked before were immediately knocked down by the armor-piercing bullets. Although they did not die completely, they were stepped on by the latecomers, and they died.

Mu Li has found the way, don't try to kill them, just kick their legs to make them lose their ability to move.

The swarms had already swarmed onto the suspension bridge, only about 50 meters away from where Mu Li was. The suspension bridge was not very wide, and Mu Li's double guns could still handle it.But the consumption of bullets was terrible, Mu Li didn't have time to load the bullets at all, so she had to throw away one gun after finishing shooting, and use her foot to pick up the next one to continue shooting. As long as her firepower was a little slack, the swarm of insects would immediately approach.The most imminent thing is that a large number of insect swarms have poured into the moat, and they fill the river with their bodies to build roads and ladders for their successors.At some point, they could surge onto the suspension bridge from the side.

Overhead, the roar of the helicopter sounded, and Lan Ni looked into the distance and said happily:

"It's rescue! Rescue is finally here! Ali, if you hold on for a while, rescue is coming!"
