Counterfeit Hero

Looking up, we see the city’s iconic canopy tower. The faint blue light swayed in the night. Extraordinarily charming. From time to time, an atmospheric passenger plane, a cargo spacecraft, or an airport shuttle in the halo of the Tower of Babel passed through the automatically opened light curtain and landed at the distant airport.

The busiest waterway is the military base on the outskirts of the city. A military base built at Chalkna for the gathering of Allied forces since the beginning of the war. One after another. It has become a new satellite city of Hanking.

Although compared with the seven traditional satellite cities, there are no rows of space buildings here. There is no bustling commercial district, but in terms of entertainment, it is not inferior to Queens District, which has the most colorful nightlife in Hanking.

Hastings sat in a wheelchair, looking down at the East Second District not far from the base. The wind on the terrace was so strong that the old man's collar turned wildly.

Li Cunxin stood beside him, his gray beard and hair swaying in the wind, like an old lion still in full glory.

Inside the glass door behind you. The lights are bright. Seven or eight desks are arranged in two rows. Several confidential secretaries were busy working. From time to time, someone stood up, took documents, opened the door to the conference room further inside, and walked in quickly.

When the door of the conference room was opened, generals wearing various general uniforms could be vaguely seen, either nervously staring at the Skynet screen, or arguing in front of the electronic sand table. The light from Skynet's computer was constantly changing amidst the swirling cigarette smoke.

McKinley walked up to Hastings and Li Cunxin, saluted, and waited quietly.

He had just arrived from the Allied Forces Command in Al-Aqsa. In addition to bringing ten Fifa armored divisions and a super fleet, he also brought a document signed by President Francis.

With this document. Hastings will be able to combine the six group fleets of the Fei League's most elite double-headed eagle force. Ten, special divisions and twenty first level divisions were drawn from the mainland to Chakna. This is already the full strength of Feiyang’s military force!

Mobilize the second division of the Double-headed Eagle Budai to participate in the battle in the southeastern star field. It has been criticized by many people. Now mobilize all the troops to leave the country. I don’t know what the criticism will be like in China. Those politicians, those soldiers who see war as the road to success. Those people who don't know the truth, Hastings. It will be criticized by thousands of people!

Thirty years of self-centeredness have made many Feiyang people too arrogant and selfish. As long as the flames of war have not yet entered the mainland of the Feiyang Republic, the life and death of other countries has nothing to do with them.

They will never understand that this war only relies on the Feiyang Republic's own strength. There is no way to win. In fact, Feiyang is now. It has reached a critical moment of life and death. The powerful appearance is just bright fur. All you need is a knife to kill him!

Without Hastings, Feiyang. Lost thirty years ago!

McKinley looked through several tall buildings in the base and landed on the most prosperous area of ​​the entire base. There's wine and beer halls. snooker room. nightclub. Cinema. High-end restaurants and hotels are located next to each other.

This is an era of war. In this era, soldiers are the protagonists. TV news, movies and novels. Advertising posters, street talk. They are all occupied by the image of this group of people who defend the country with their lives.

When young people who enlist in the army become the focus of envy and admiration among their classmates, when women of this era regard marrying a respected soldier who does not have to worry about unemployment as their most beautiful and realistic belonging, the military base in the suburbs of Hanking , has become the new center of the city. Periphery. It became more and more lively. Every night, the streets become noisy and lively, and beautiful private flying cars gather here. Public flying buses also run between here and downtown Hanking all night long. Under the flashing neon lights, the streets are filled with officers and soldiers wearing different uniforms from different countries, as well as girls with charming smiles, forming a picture with the most characteristic of the times.

Here, there are orthodox soldiers who just come to order a non-alcoholic drink, listen to music and return to the camp on time, and there are also thorns who are disheveled, drunk and causing trouble. There are innocent girls who blush when being approached and shyly hide behind their companions, and white-collar beauties who are swaying and looking at the charming white-collar ladies. There are also call girls who are voluptuous and have big breasts and fat butts.

The flying cars passing by, the lovers kissing like no one else, the confusing lights, the swaying dance steps and the intoxicating wine are all filled with an addictive flavor.

Because it is not yet time to prepare for the fourth increase in troops. Also because of the need for officers and soldiers walking on the edge of life and death to relieve stress, the upper echelons of the army do not prohibit soldiers from coming here to relax and entertain themselves.

War is dehumanizing, but if you do it on the home front. Also if the nerves are stretched too tight. Sooner or later people will go crazy.

However, speaking of order, East Second District. It seems to be much better than similar places around military bases in any country.

The corners of McKinley's mouth curved. The reason is simple, this is the territory of the bandits!

Although the 1st and 2nd Armored Divisions of the bandit army had already left before the third reinforcements set off for Canglang Planet, the current base is stationed by the troops who came from Gacharin later. but. These were composed of former fighters of the Gacharin Freedom Front and the best forces in the hands of Gordon and Heilig. Also like the first two, the teacher has the same moral character.

If the previous Mars bastards were a group of pirates, then the bandit army now stationed here has a newly formed Third Armored Division. Just a bunch of terrorists!

Net to the Allied troops assembled in Hanking. After two battles with these guys, I immediately became honest. The second batch of bandits... the second batch of Qi, naturally continued from the second batch of reinforcements to the fourth batch of reinforcements. These guys had a brilliant record. They even defeated the 31st Army under Li Fo, and they also had Hastings to support them. With Marshal Chakna protecting his shortcomings and having the supply of twelfth-generation mechas at his fingertips, the large army went to Leifeng Planet to pick up the most difficult job, which they either respected or feared. No matter what the emotion is. Everyone has to admit the tyranny of the bandits.

Besides, this is in Chakna.

In Chakna. This was not the first time that McKinley had witnessed the favoritism and love shown by the people of this country towards the bandits. The power of the media is too great. Two war correspondents report from the front lines. No less powerful than a nuclear bomb.

People in times of war. It’s easy to be paranoid. When this paranoia turns into love and support for an army, no one dares to say anything bad about the bandits in front of the Chakna people.

If we say that the bandit army blocked Humphrey, rescued Li Cunxin, and won the battle in the northern mountainous area of ​​Canglang Star. If the people of Chakna are still excited when mentioning the old news, then I believe it won’t be long. They will because of everything that is happening on Leifeng Star at this moment. And I love this team even more. .

In the future, this force will become the core of the new Fiji Alliance Army!

"General McKinley, what do you think of the war on the Western Front in Phoenix?"

McKinley looked up at the sound. Hastings's eyelids shone in the night.

"This battle will be in the textbooks!" McKinley thought of the fat man with a simple and honest face, and couldn't help but admire Hastings' vision. Without hesitation, he said, "While carrying out strategic detours across the six theaters with a surprise force, we liberated the troops pressed by the enemy on the defense line, and finally formed an absolute advantage in Sunset Mountain to surround the enemy's main force. This tactic of gathering streams into rivers" , can be called a genius.”

He recalled the entire battle. He praised: "What is more rare than tactics is the combat effectiveness of the bandit army. Without the confidence to penetrate the enemy's six theaters, General Tian would not dare to let the Reske Front mobilize all reserves to Sunset Mountain in advance. Without this advance, action, the Leifengxing Front Army would not be able to immediately launch a counter-deception at the most critical moment."

To the end. McKinley's voice. Already getting a little excited: "The entire tactics are linked together. But they can be carried out with lightning speed, and the victory is finalized in just over thirty hours. The bandit army's tactical execution ability is extremely high."

As one of the Five Fei Yang Tiger Generals, even if McKinley is not as famous as Li Fu, his vision will not be much worse. Such words came out of his mouth. The portion size is naturally very heavy.

Hastings raised the corner of his mouth, and Li Cunxin beside him burst into laughter.

The old man waved his hands one after another, and said modestly: "Admiral McKinley, stop praising him, keep praising him. Then the fat man will be proud of himself." Even so. But on his face. But he was full of uncontrollable pride. It was as if he was the one being praised!

"As an example of blitzkrieg, this battle can be included in textbooks. However, that is not the point." Hastings shook his head and smiled faintly. "In the first stage of the battle, he used force to break the situation. Relying on Two under his command. The brute force of the armored division, the tactical cleverness. It is a good use of liberating the troops on the defense line. But the most important thing now is the next stage."

He gently turned the wheelchair and faced McKinley: "If you are the commander, how are you going to fight in the next stage?"

"After eating the main force of Belif's Northern Cluster, the Leifeng Star Front Army will have enough strength to engage in a strategic confrontation with the opponent. The most reliable tactic is to delay time." McKinley thought of Fatty's boldness, hesitated, and said, "Maybe Tanaka will release Bellev’s reserve troops into the encirclement!”

Hastings nodded approvingly at McKinley, with a hint of regret in his eyes: "You use your troops steadily and fight tough battles. Protracted warfare is your strength. However, when it comes to tactical changes, . Dare to invest troops and take risks, but you are not good at it. Competing with Sobol, you can make the Fei League undefeated for ten years, but you can't win. Li Fu, on the other hand, is too radical. Victory and defeat are all in the blink of an eye. between."

McKinley listened respectfully. As a student trained by Hastings, this was the first time he heard Hastings comment on him. He had never had any doubt about the old man's vision.

Hastings continued: "In terms of military literacy and commanding skills, Tian Xingjian is not as good as you. However, when it comes to changing battlefield conditions, you are not as good as him."

Said. Hastings turned his head. Gazing at the canopy tower towering into the clouds in the distance. Youyou said authentically: "You regard war as a profession and command as an art, but he regards these as means of survival. His goals are clearer than yours, and his thinking is less restricted. In order to survive, he must defeat Opponent. This is his survival instinct. Now, he has more than thirty-five divisions in his hands. I can conclude that he will use Belive to attack the West York base camp! "

"Only by ending the battle on Leifeng Star as soon as possible can he save everything before Lelei's last star field falls." Hastings said slowly, "For Lelei. He will do whatever it takes!"

Attack the Western York base camp? McKinley couldn't believe his ears. Even though he knew it too. Annihilating the main force of Belif's northern cluster would be equivalent to opening a huge gap in the Western York controlled area. But, in the south. There are also more than twenty divisions of Antonescu's Army Group South. In the hands of the famous general Rosenberg of Binart, there were also more than 70 divisions of Western troops.

Even if these troops have just arrived at Leifeng Star and have not yet been deployed to the front line, their numerical advantage can give them enough time and space. and have enough

The Leifengxing front army alone cannot annihilate them in one go. The battle situation became stalemate, which was detrimental to the Leifeng Star front army. Moreover. Belif has always been known for his caution. It is hard to say whether he will jump into the trap so easily. If he gives up the disabled main force in Sunset Mountain and relies on reserve troops for defense to delay time, even if the bandit army wants to advance westward quickly, it will be impossible.

Now, with enough living space, the Leifeng Star Front can pose a grand strategic threat to the enemy at any time and anywhere.

Just stick to one. By August, the fourth Allied troop surge will be completed. The Double-Headed Eagle Armored Division mobilized by Hastings was only a small part of this huge army. There are forty divisions in the Fei League and thirty divisions from other Fei League member states. The total strength of seventy divisions is enough to make Leifeng Star impregnable.

Why take such a risk at this time?

McKinley frowned and thought hard, and suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. He found that he had forgotten a fact.

The ten Adjudicators of the Binart Empire marched across Catalonia, leading the armored troops to defeat the army of General Ryan Runan, almost out of control. And this time. According to reports from the front, the bandits massacred a hundred Advocates in Frenço alone.

In the subsequent battle at the Sunset Mountain position, a bandit special battalion of more than 400 people, with the assistance of the Chakna defenders, defeated two hundred adjudicators. More than 150 adjudicators were killed, and our own casualties were only 300.

Such a record. It is enough to show how powerful this army is. If all the bandit pilots who drive the Ranger can compete with the Judge, then when tens of thousands of bandit pilots are running rampant in the twelfth generation and hundreds of bandit warriors are led by the God of War, there will be no time limit and no objective conditions. Under such circumstances, what would it be like to launch an attack on the defense line that has opened a gap in the west? !

McKinley's heart suddenly started pounding!

"How is Stiller?" Fatty walked out of the command mecha and walked towards Logic while asking An Lei from the Phoenix Command through the earpiece. .

The calf was seriously injured and has been sent to the medical cabin. An He said, and exchanged worried glances with Bratt, Margaret and others beside him.

Everyone knew that, even though Russell and Bernadotte prohibited the fat man from going to the front line in person. However, once the fat man is angered, he will not listen to anyone, especially when he thinks the fault lies with him!

More than a hundred bandit mecha warriors died in battle, enough to turn him into an angry bull.

"Treat all the wounded with all your strength, and tell them that I have gone to avenge them!" the fat man finished. She closed the communication without waiting for An Lei's reply. Taked off the headset.

He walked faster through the woods. In the forest, five hundred black devil-like mechas were waiting quietly. The sunlight was blocked by the tree canopy, and the light that penetrated the ground sporadicly made the woods in this mountain col look even more eerie. The fat man didn't look sideways and kicked his feet. His fat body looked like a lightning falcon. Skimming the queue, he climbed up to the logic cabin three times.

He turned around and sat down on the alloy seat. Watching the console and hatch close in front of him. The fat man gritted his teeth and slapped himself hard!

The first division of the bandit army was formed based on the special reconnaissance company under his command. Later, in order to form combat effectiveness faster, the first division gathered a large number of Mal who had been with him since Marspro Town. Sri Lanka. The division is directly under the special battalion, and it is the best among them!

Originally, I thought it was enough to assist Sunset Mountain's defense with a special battalion. But who knew that he would meet Reinhardt!

More than a hundred pilots died in the battle, including six former Special Reconnaissance Battalion soldiers and 21 other LeLei pilots. The rest are all from Mars, and more than thirty people are veterans from Protown!

It was them who, despite being inferior to their opponents, still fought desperately. Battle reports and videos from the rear showed that in the face of more than a dozen enemy attacks, the Special Forces Battalion of the First Division was always at the forefront. One fell, the other. Top it up. No matter how hard the Judges led by Reinhardt charged, they never retreated from the bloody battle! And one fell to Reinhardt. There are twenty-eight people under his command! That metal head son of a bitch. The mecha's control frequency has exceeded the hand speed standard of 85 movements per second!

Logic's battleship version engine suddenly started up and let out a scream.

Fatty turned on the mecha's loudspeaker.

"I just received news that the First Division Special Forces Battalion. One hundred and fifty-six people were killed and seventy-eight were seriously injured in the battle at Sunset Mountain." He looked around, "They killed more than one hundred and fifty Judges."

With a crash, the entire forest exploded. For a time, the crowd was furious. While everyone was happy that the 1st Division's Special Forces Battalion had killed more than 150 Advocates using only Rangers, they were also angry at the 1st Division's casualties.

If the people guarding Sunset Mountain were directly under the special battalion, none of those tough-headed grandsons would be alive!

"There are forty judges left). They and the main force of the Sunset Mountain defeated army are approaching us! I have ordered the troops on the frontal defense line to get out of the way." The fat man pulled the control lever of the mecha and said with a ferocious expression: "Follow me, let's give these Western bastards a lesson!"
